Authors: Jaafar Syuhaida Bt Mohamed@ , Mat Nik Hazimah Bt Nik
Published: July 2023

The purpose of this paper is to explore the gig workers’ performance over the job design in the gig economy. A qualitative research design is employed to achieve the research objective. Data for this study were collected from online sellers in Malaysia using online interviews. The phenomenology approach is adopted to analyze the interview data with online sellers who represent the role holder’s perspectives. Thematic analysis was used to interpret the interview data. The exploration of gig works implementation results in different perspectives among gig workers. Based on the respondents’ experiences, the findings suggest that the income and skills possessed by the gig workers are the main themes that differentiate job performance for online sellers in the gig economy. The generation of income with additional skills possession plays a vital role in attracting positive perceptions and performance measurement of the gig workers. In addition, gig workers also related their performance to other factors including flexible time, sales volume, fast interaction and transaction, knowledge skills, effort, and innovation throughout their involvement in the gig work. Theoretically, this study contributes to the job performance measurement among gig workers with different perspectives due to fewer employment relations occurring between employers and employees. Practically, the gig workers hold their own perceptions with regard to job performance to assist them in completing their jobs and adapting to the gig economy conditions. The findings provide insights to related players in the gig economy to formulate better work design and expectations in ensuring that the adaptation to this new kind of marketplace benefits both employers and employees.

Introduction: A T-Skin stapler is a type of skin staple commonly used in the closure of surgical wounds on skinslices. Quick and accurate treatment of patients is required. However, there is still limited research comparingthe handling speed of the tool with other skin staples.Method: We used a T-Skin stapler that is built of sterile grade 317 L medical metal with code SS1 and thesurgical thread type T-Silk no. 330 with code S21. We created numerous portions in goat experimental animalsthat were aged over 2-3 years and weighed more than 20.5-26 kg after randomly inflicting gout on animals withsurgical incision wounds (10 cm).Result: The T-Skin stapler and surgical threads had comparable results with respect to wound closure, but the TSkinstapler was faster in all steps observed. A comparison of the speed of surgical wounds with a stapler wasfound to be 6.3 times faster than using sutures with surgical threads. The time used to remove the staples was anaverage of 92.4 seconds, while the time taken for thread removal was 110.6 seconds.Conclusion: The T-Skin stapler and surgical threads had comparable results with respect to wound closure;however, the T-Skin stapler was faster in all steps observed.

Introduction: The COVID-19 has led to a drastic shift in holistic educational system into online mode, but itsusefulness in teaching medical and nursing course is questionable. Assessing nursing students’ perceptions andlevel of gratifications with web-based learning system has been a critical issue.Methodology: A quantitative study approach and descriptive study design was adopted to assess the perceptionsand level of gratifications towards traditional and virtual learning experiences among the nursing students duringa Covid-19 Pandemic. The sample consists of 140 nursing students who are having exposure to both traditionalas well as virtual learning experiences, which were drawn using the probability sampling technique (simplerandom- lottery method). The data were collected through the administration of structured questionnaire, whichconsists 15 demographic questions, 28 Perception statements (towards traditional learning 14 & virtual learning14), 16 Gratification statements (towards traditional learning 8 & virtual learning 8). Data were analyzed by usingDescriptive & Inferential statistics.Results: The study results revealed that with respect to virtual learning 42(30%) had positive perceptions and98(70%) had negative perceptions, and with regard to traditional learning 139(99.29%) had negative perceptionsand only one (0.71%) had positive perceptions. In addition, with regard to virtual learning 125(89.29%) weremoderately satisfied, 12(8.57%) were highly satisfied and 3(2.14%) had a low level of satisfactions, and with respectto traditional learning experiences, 115(82.14%) were moderately satisfied, 23(16,43%) were highly satisfied, and2(1.43%) had a low level of satisfaction.Conclusion: Based on the findings of the study, it was concluded that while the empirical status of online learningstudies is somewhat disappointing, online learning experiences have revolutionised learning and teaching.Virtuallearning also has advantages and can enhance the nursing education learning experience, but it needs to bedelivered correctly.
An Experimental study: Effectiveness of Nursing protocol on postoperative outcome among patients undergoing major Visceral Surgeries in a Selected Tertiary Care Hospital at Delhi
Authors: Mini Mathai  , C. Susila
Published: July 2023

Introduction : Surgery is almost always viewed as a life crisis and evokes anxiety and fear . In line with the growingnumber of surgical procedures being performed worldwide, postoperative complications are also increasing,proportionately increasing mortality, impairing patients’ postoperative outcome, lengthening intensive care andtotal hospital stay. Preoperative assessment and care is extremely important prior to any invasive procedureincluding minor and major surgical procedures. Physical and psychological preparation tends to improve surgicaloutcomes. Preoperative teaching provides with pertinent information concerning the surgical process and theintended surgical procedure as well as anticipated patient behavior (anxiety, fear), expected sensation, and theprobable outcomes. The experimental study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of nursing protocol onpostoperative outcome among patients undergoing major visceral surgeries in a selected tertiary care hospital. Theobjectives of the study were to assess the post operative outcome of patients undergoing major visceral surgeriesin the study and control group, to determine the effectiveness of nursing protocol on postoperative outcomeamong patients undergoing major visceral surgeries and to associate the post operative outcome with the sociodemographic variables.Materials and Methods: An experimental, post-test only design was used to conduct the study at tertiary carehospital in Delhi. The intervention was carried out in the pre-operative surgical wards of the tertiary care hospitaland post-operative data was collected in the inpatient surgical unit. 63 samples in the experimental group and63 samples in the control group were selected by simple random sampling technique. The study revealed thatthere was a significant difference in the pain scores on the seventh day after surgery and on the patient satisfactionrelated to preoperative education and intraoperative care.

Published: July 2023

Background: The prevalence of osteoarthritis is thought to be around 4% of the present population. Knee painis the most common complaint involving a peripheral joint and has been observed to affect 5%–13% of adultpopulations in Asia. Agility exercise may address the needs of the patients and promote knee health status.Methods: An experimental study was done to evaluate the effectiveness of Agility exercise on pain and kneehealth status among patients with knee osteoarthritis. Sixty samples were selected (30 each in experimental andcontrol group) through non probability purposive sampling technique. The pain was assessed by numerical painintensity scale and knee health status was assessed by modified lower extremity functional scale. The investigatordemonstrated Agility exercises to only experimental group for 21 days.Conclusion: The findings reveal that, in experimental group the pretest and posttest mean score of pain was 7±0.6and 5.6±1.51 respectively. In experimental group the pretest and posttest mean score of knee health status was18.4±3.33 and 13.4±3.53 respectively. The calculated ‘t’ value for pain was 12.77 and for knee health status was18.37which was greater than the table value. In posttest experimental and control group the mean score for pain was5.6±1.51 and 7.2±1.2 respectively. In posttest experimental and control group the mean score for knee health statuswas 13.4±3.53 and 18.5±2.32 respectively. The calculated ‘t’ value for pain was 3.7 and for knee health status was3.36 which was greater than the table value. Thus it become evident that agility exercise was effective in reducingpain and improving knee health status among patients with knee osteoarthritis. The study concluded that agilitywas effective on reducing pain and improving knee health status among patients with knee osteoarthritis.
Reliability of individual differences in distractor suppression driven by statistical learning
Authors: Ivanov Yavor , Theeuwes Jan , Bogaerts Louisa
Published: July 2023

A series of recent studies has demonstrated that attentional selection is modulated by statistical regularities, even when they concern task-irrelevant stimuli. Irrelevant distractors presented more frequently at one location interfere less with search than distractors presented elsewhere. To account for this finding, it has been proposed that through statistical learning, the frequent distractor location becomes suppressed relative to the other locations. Learned distractor suppression has mainly been studied at the group level, where individual differences are treated as unexplained error variance. Yet these individual differences may provide important mechanistic insights and could be predictive of cognitive and real-life outcomes. In the current study, we ask whether in an additional singleton task, the standard measures of attentional capture and learned suppression are reliable and stable at the level of the individual. In an online study, we assessed both the within- and between-session reliability of individual-level measures of attentional capture and learned suppression. We show that the measures of attentional capture, but not of distractor suppression, are moderately stable within the same session (i.e., split-half reliability). Test–retest reliability over a 2-month period was found to be moderate for attentional capture but weak or absent for suppression. RT-based measures proved to be superior to accuracy measures. While producing very robust findings at the group level, the predictive validity of these RT-based measures is still limited when it comes to individual-level performance. We discuss the implications for future research drawing on inter-individual variation in the attentional biases that result from statistical learning.

Authors: Wosu Uchechi Ngozi
Published: July 2023

Business Studies is offered in Junior Secondary Schools (JSS) as a subject meant to expose learners to commerce, office management, trade and book keeping. In spite of its importance, performance in the subject is below expectation in Rivers State. Previous studies revealed that brainstorming and field trip will improve learning outcomes but they are rarely used while teaching Business Studies. This study, therefore, determined the effects of brainstorming (BTM), field trip (FTTM), and conventional teaching methods (CM) and gender on secondary school students’ achievement in Business Studies. All the JSS 2 students (467) in the selected schools participated in the study. The treatment lasted for seven weeks. The instrument used was Business Studies Achievement Test (r=0.82), Data collected was analysed using Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) at 0.05 level of significance. There was a significant main effect of treatment on students’ achievement in Business Studies [F(2,131)=26.70, partial η2=0.29]. Participants in FTTM had the highest mean (35.79), followed by BTM (35.71) and CM (27.54). Results revealed that gender did not have a significant main effect on students’ achievement in business studies [F(1,131) =.315, P> .05]. Brainstorming and Field trip teaching methods influenced learning outcomes of students in Business studies in Rivers state but Field trip method was better. It is therefore suggested that teachers should use both methods during Business studies classes.

Приведены результаты изучения распространения и развития болезней, вредителей, сорных растений  в условиях  возделывания горчицы сизой (сарептской) по традиционной, минимальной и нулевой технологиям на южных карбонатных черноземах степной зоны Северного Казахстана.  Показано, что  при возделывании горчицы сизой важное значение имеет защита растений с использованием препарата для предпосевной обработки семян инсектофунгицидного действия, гербицидов против двудольных и злаковых сорных растений, фунгицида и инсектицида. Выполнение комплекса защитных мероприятий  в значительной степени сдерживает распространение и развитие семенной инфекции, ложной мучнистой росы, крестоцветных блошек, рапсового цветоеда, капустной моли, однолетних и многолетних злаковых и двудольных сорняков и способствует получению дополнительно 54-58% урожая семян от уровня контроля (без обработки). Рассмотрены значение биологического препарата Seedspor W на основе микроорганизмов (Glomus ssp., триходерма аспереллум, сенная палочка, Bacillus megaterium) для обеззараживания семян горчицы,  листовых и корневых подкормок препаратом Smart Start P и их значение для урожайности горчицы. Наибольший рост урожайности семян обеспечили в условиях минимальной технологии возделывания, где были получены наибольшие показатели от 6,8 ц/га до 8,2 ц/га.

Published: July 2023

The principles of water management were developed based on the analysis of the water management situation in Balkash – Alakol water district.
   The analysis of modern degradation of ecological systems shows that this process is a direct result of timely forecast assessments and foresight of possible consequences of decisions taken at the stage of developing schemes for integrated use and protection of water resources for separate river basins of Kazakhstan.
In water-scarce river basins, the further development of water management and, accordingly, the development of economic sectors require matching the available water resources and demand for them. Thus, ideally, it is necessary to coordinate the possibility of taking water from the environment of a certain amount of natural, including water resources, with the self-recovering ability of the environment.
Due to anthropogenic activity and a sharp increase in water consumption in the upper reaches of Ile River, tense water management and ecological situation has already developed in the Balkash-Alakolskiy water basin, in which the unique Balkash lake can share the same fate as Aral Sea. The planned medium and long-term measures for development of irrigated agriculture in the territories of Zhetysu and Almaty regions result in additional excessive burden on natural environment in the region. Possible comprehensive measures are proposed to solve the strategic task of water (socio-ecological and economically optimal) management in Balkash-Alakol water basin, taking into account the preservation of Balkash Lake.

Authors: Knyazkov V. B. , Prazdnikov E. N. , Daikhes N. A.
Published: July 2023

Purpose: to study anatomical and physiological features of the soft palate in patients with rhonchopathy and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome so as to minimize damage to tissue structures during laser uvulopalatoplasty.

Material and methods. Five hundred twenty-three patients with rhonchopathy and OSA syndrome were examined using the index technique for determining neck circumference-height ratio (NHR), pharyngoscopy and endoscopy of the oral and pharyngeal cavities.

Results. Obstructive sleep apnea syndrome is more often met in patients having rhonchopathy and the brachymorphic and mesomorphic type of their neck. The researchers have found a clear dependence between the increase in the number of patients having rhonchopathy and moderate and severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and the increase of soft palate hypertrophy combined with ptosis. A cone-shaped depression on the anterior surface of the soft palate was noted in 80-90 % of patients with normal weight (body mass index < 25); in 40–60 % of patients with grade I obesity (body mass index – 30–34.9); in 10–15 % of patients with grade II obesity (body mass index – 35–39,9); in patients with grade IIIobesity (body mass index > 40) there were no any depression in the soft palate. Patients with uncomplicated snoring have a thick area in the forma pillow at the back of their soft palate sized 1 × 0.5 × 0.5 cm, while in patients with severe OSA syndrome this «pillow» is up to 2 × 1.5 × 1 cm.

Conclusion. The effectiveness of laser uvulopalatoplasty depends not only on the adequate choice of main parameters for laser irradiation, but also on the careful consideration of anatomical and functional features of the soft palate in each operated patient with rhonchopathy and obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.

Purpose: to describe a clinical case of successful application of light-oxygen therapy (LOT) in a patient with plantar warts.

Material and methods. The publication presents a clinical case of the successful outcome after light-oxygen therapy in the absorption spectrum of endogenous oxygen with its transfer to the singlet state in a patient with plantar warts. Russian-made diode laser «Super Seb», manufactured by LLC New Surgical Technologies (Moscow, Russia) with wavelength near 1265 nm, laser power 0–3 W was used as a source of laser light. Radiation power was from 2.1 to 2.7 W. Power density – from 0.86 to 1.86 W/cm2. Exposure dose – from 258 to 558 J/cm2. No anesthesia was required. The maximal surface heating temperature during the procedure was 41 °C. Temperature was controlled with non–contact infrared thermometer ELARI SmartCare model YC-E13 (manufactured by Zhengyang Yuncheng Medical Technology Co. Ltd., China) to eliminate thermal damage. Laser sessions were twice a week with 3–4 day intervals.

Results. Complete clinical remission was achieved after 14 LOT sessions.

Conclusions. Light-oxygen therapy is an effective and safe procedure for patients with plantar warts.

Including slip boundary conditions in the study involving the flow of foams, emulsions, polymer solutions, and suspensions over moving surfaces are crucial for real-life applications. The current study analysed the multiple slips effects on the magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) flow of Ag-CuO/water hybrid nanofluid past a permeable stretching/shrinking sheet embedded in a porous medium. Appropriate similarity variables are introduced for transforming the governing equations and boundary conditions into ordinary differential equations before being solved using the bvp4c solver. Dual solutions are yielded from the numerical computation of flow over a shrinking sheet, and the first solution is identified as stable through a stability analysis. It is found that the imposition of velocity, thermal, and mass slips promotes the reduction of momentum, thermal, and concentration boundary layer thickness, respectively. The hybrid nanofluid around the sheet is observed to flow at a different velocity from the sheet due to the imposition of velocity slip. Thermal and mass slips, meanwhile, obstruct the flow's ability to transport heat and mass. An increased suction parameter, however, can aid in enhancing the rates of heat and mass transfers.

Published: July 2023

This study presents experimental analysis of biomass air-steam gasification for the enhancement of H2 production in producer gas (PG). Wood pellets which are widely available in Malaysia are used in this investigation. A pilot scale downdraft gasifier based on new three-layers annular reactor design was implemented to produce hydrogen enriched PG. The reactor is initially heated using hot flue gas from LPG combustion which is switched to PG when the reactor reaches stable operation. The effect of steam to biomass (S/B) ratio from 1.1 to 1.5 on PG quality in terms of gas composition, HHV and tar contamination is studied. Maximum H2 production of 27.7% was achieved at optimum air flow rate of 75 LPM and S/B ratio of 1.2. At the optimum air flow rate, HHV and tar contamination in PG where in the range of 5.06 - 6.08 MJ/Nm3 and 187 - 30mg/m3, respectively.
