Published: September 2024

The acquisition and transmission of hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) can have a direct impact on the prognosis of neonates, the effectiveness of treatment, and posing significant challenges to clinical care. As nurses have direct contact with neonates, their knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) are critical for the prevention and control of infection in neonatal intensive care units (NICUs). The purpose of this study was to assess the level of knowledge, attitude, and practice of infection control among nurses in neonatal departments in Benghazi public hospitals. A cross-sectional study was conducted between June and December 2021. A pretested questionnaire was used to collect data from 61 neonatal nurses. The collected data were reviewed, coded, and transferred to SPSS version 23 for analysis. The study found that about 55.7% of nurses had satisfactory knowledge. Nurses with bachelor's degrees had higher knowledge scores, were more likely to know the risks of acquiring HCV and HIV, and also showed good attitudes. In terms of practice, nurses with intermediate diplomas showed good practice, but no significant differences were found between the three groups (P = 0.5). Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the nurses in the current study have a good practice level and a positive attitude regarding infection control. However, their overall knowledge didn’t reach a satisfactory level.

Physical properties and microstructural corrosion propertiesof Laser-bent 304 Stainless Steel Sheets
Authors: A. Abdalshafie_Efhema Mastura
Published: September 2024

Laser treatment by laser bending is a technique of treating sheet metal by thermal residual stresses generated by laser assisted heating without any externally applied mechanical forces. The advantages of laser assisted bending over conventional bending include flexibility of non-contact processing, amenability to materials with diverse shape/geometry, and high precision/productivity. Up to now, most of previous work on laser bending was concentrated on study of bending angles/shapes with laser operating conditions, and modelling of the thermal process, however, no work has been reported on corrosion behavior of the laser-bended components. Since the laser bending is a thermal process, it is believed that the thermal process could not only alter microstructure, but also affect corrosion performances, such as intergranular corrosion, due to possible sensitisation caused by repeating laser scans. The aim of the present work is to investigate corrosion performance of laser-bent 304 austenitic-steel sheet with thicknesses of 2 mm and 1.5 mm, respectively, using a 2 kW CO2 laser. After laser treatment, the laser-bent samples were characterised in terms of microstructural change within bent zones consisting of melt-zone and heat-affected zone, using optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Hardness profiles were obtained across the bent zones. Corrosion performances of the laser-bent evaluated by means of electrolytic etching in oxalic acid and double-loop electrochemical potentiokinetic reactivation (DL-EPR) tests. Laser bending is a thermal process, it is believed that the thermal process could not only alter microstructure, but also affect corrosion performances, due to possible sensitisation caused by repeating laser scans.

This study investigates the socio-demographic profile, farming challenges, and the Local Government Unit (LGU) support to rubber farmers in Tampilisan, Zamboanga del Norte, Philippines. The research employed a pre and actual-pandemic analysis to assess the effectiveness of LGU extension services in empowering rubber farmers. Data from 50 rubber farmers across 15 barangays were analyzed using a descriptive-correlation method. Findings reveal that rubber farmers in Tampilisan are predominantly middle-aged, have a high school education level, and have low monthly incomes. Farmers engage in diverse farming practices, including intercropping and integrated farming systems, demonstrating adaptive strategies for income diversification. While participation in LGU extension services was high before the pandemic, it significantly declined during the pandemic due to restrictions and limitations. Farmers identified several key challenges, including low rubber prices, capital constraints, and lack of skilled labor, which persisted before and during the pandemic. Despite these challenges, farmers reported moderate agreement on the benefits derived from LGU extension services, particularly regarding education for their children and food security for their families. Findings also suggest that farmers' income correlates with the types of crops planted, indicating that diversifying crops like coconut, banana, and fruit trees can lead to increased income.

This study aims to assess and assure service quality through SERVQUAL in the Land Bank of the Philippines North NCR Branches. Quantitative methods were employed, with 100 clients/customers, 216 front-liners, and 66 administrators from 82 LANDBANK North NCR Branches participating as respondents. A structured questionnaire served as the primary data collection tool. Statistical analyses included weighted mean, frequency and percentage distribution, standard deviation, Slovin’s formula, and Cronbach alpha reliability test. This study assesses the service quality perceptions among administrators, front-liners, and clients at LANDBANK. Results revealed a majority of female presence across all respondent groups. Administrators, aged 51 years and above, are mainly single and highly educated with postgraduate degrees. In contrast, majority of the front-liners and clients are aged 26-30 years and are married and hold mostly college degrees. Assessment across five dimensions of LANDBANK's service quality – tangibility, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy – revealed different perceptions. Tangibility was rated as commonly observed, with concerns about outdated equipment and system functionality. Reliability was rated higher by administrators than the front-liners and clients, issues encountered include long waiting times, system maintenance, ATM failures, and client-reported poor customer service. Administrators rated responsiveness higher than frontliners and clients, who highlighted delays and system failures. Assurance received higher ratings from administrators and front-liners but there are concerns encountered regarding hidden charges and security from clients. Empathy was consistently rated higher by administrators and front-liners compared to clients, citing instances of unsatisfactory customer service. Administrators rated LANDBANK’s service quality higher than the front-liners and clients, suggesting opportunities for enhancing alignment with customer expectations. Key issues identified include system reliability, long waiting times, and ATM failures. Recommendations focus on facility upgrades, IT enhancements, staffing increases, professionalism development, and improved customer service training to elevate service quality, customer satisfaction, and competitiveness at LANDBANK North NCR Branches.

The study explores how leadership competence fosters participation in ISO-accredited private higher education institutions (PHEIs) in South Cotabato. It analyzes how leadership impacts institutional climates by assessing the effect of strategic planning, decision-making, professional development, and empowerment on workers' communication, commitment, collaboration, and recognition systems. Employing descriptive-correlation and comparative research design, data was acquired through standardized Likert scale questionnaires from 45 administrators and 126 employees in two PHEIs. The findings reveal a generally favorable opinion of leadership qualities and engagement in cultural activities, with the highest marks on professional progress. Nevertheless, the correlation study found a very weak correlation between leadership competence and cultural participation, suggesting that other factors might affect this interaction. However, results indicated a significant difference in the leadership competence and culture of engagement among employees when categorized by private higher education institutions. The study asserts that while leadership competence is crucial, we must also consider other elements to understand and fully foster cultural engagement.

Breast cancer (BC) is intricately linked with emotions, underscoring the importance of BC survivors adopting effective coping strategies. This study utilized qualitative research methods and semi-structured interviews to explore the evolving coping strategies of 15 Chinese BC survivors throughout their recovery journey. Through the process of coding and organizing the interview data, it was found that individuals frequently shifted from employing negative coping strategies to employing active coping strategies when faced with risk. The transformation approaches include from ineffective emotional venting to positive reappraisal; from focused on thought/rumination to avoidance; from putting into perspective to positive focusing; from other blame to positive refocusing; identifying and cleaning up irrational emotions; self-awareness growth. Furthermore, three coping strategies emerged: emotion-focused coping; problem-focused coping; and meaning-focused coping. Each coping strategy offers unique strengths and appropriate situations. The findings underscore the importance of fostering a positive outlook on risks among BC survivors and continuously enhancing their coping skills to navigate the challenges they encounter.
You Too, Brutus? Betrayal Trauma between Scotomization and Self-Confrontation (Psychoanalytic Study on Modernist Selected Poems)
Authors: Al-Moosawi Haider Ghazi
Published: September 2024

“You, too” strikes deep roots in the human dealings, sometimes it tends to an impetus to boost, sometimes a curb to sink like a stone.  The acts of betrayal take hold of specific aspects: it is done to take, usurp and confiscate, or rather it is done to gain. In so doing, the victim here suffers and then reverts into the caves of scotomization. The current paper is to shed light on certain samples to prove that no trauma could persist in the face of human endeavours to give birth to oneself. To trace such a hypothesis, the theory of scotomization is to be explicated in the view of human defense mechanism to shield his vulnerable ores and values. First there will be a literature review to survey the gap to bridge in such a scope, and then there will be a manifestation to the nexus between betrayal trauma and scotomization. The samples of the study pays much heed to the diversity of the reasons beyond betrayal :  Tattoo of Muhammad Al-Maghut imparts the suppressed shouts of a man on the verge of losing his entire temper ; everything in dark he does for fear of being arrested , Muzaffar Al-Nawwab in his  Jerusalem Is Arab Nationalism's Bride come in parallel with Muhammad Al-Maghut`s in matter of metaphoric manipulation in the image of virginity and the last sample unveils the fact that all secrets are to flow in a moment of confrontation ; A Ritual to Read to Each Other by William Stafford believes that time is so essential to give leads to the hidden secrets . Here comes the schema of the paper; events, trauma, scotomization, self- realization self-confrontation and rebirth. In applying such an eclectic model to the samples, it is found that all the personas liberate themselves but with versatile maneuvers.

Published: September 2024

If the contract for the sale of real estate under construction was intended to economically address the need of individuals for housing, the aforementioned contract failed to achieve the desired goal as a result of the emergence of many real estate investors who tried to exploit the need of individuals for housing in light of this housing crisis. We often hear about the failure to complete many residential complexes or the sale of the residential unit to more than one buyer or the seller escaping with the money of the bookers, so the buyers find themselves without effective protection. Therefore, the above risks have highlighted the need to include many guarantees that ensure the protection of the buyer in the contract for the sale of real estate under construction, thus ensuring that those who purchase residential units under construction are protected from exploitation and greed of investors. It is worth noting thatThe contract for the sale of real estate under construction stipulates a set of guarantees that ensure the buyer that the seller will fulfill his contractual obligations. The buyer in the contract for the sale of real estate under construction is exposed to the risk of the seller not completing the project. This risk does not exist in the normal sale, as it applies to a property that exists at the time of contracting. Therefore, we find that the laws regulating this contract have stipulated a set of guarantees that aim to provide adequate protection for the buyer, and that some of these guarantees do not go beyond the guarantees stipulated in the normal contract for sale, and someHaOther are new guarantees specific to the contract of sale of real estate under construction.

The study examines attributional differences in assessing the level of knowledge awareness about Jordanian Cybercrimes Law (JCL) among college students. The study sample comprised 500 Jordanian students representing four Jordanian universities (TTU, MU, JU, & BU). Of these, 43% were males, and 57% were females. Students (19%) reported being victims of cybercrimes, and 24% were perpetrators. Reliability as estimated by the scale’s Cronbach’s α was 0.66, and the validity (correlation between the scale and LSC scale) was 0.157 α = 0.00 (F = 187.161, α = 0.00). More than 25% of the sample read about the JCL and observed that the law has been politicized. Moreover, three-quarters of them heard about it. More than half of the sample witnessed illegal actions on the net that required punishment. Less than 10% of the sample dealt with the JCL or participated in an online action that required punishment. ANOVA analysis of the mean gender differences in cybercrime knowledge showed females were more knowledgeable about JCL than males (F = 4.402, α =.036). Furthermore, an ANOVA analysis of the mean external attribution differences (yes vs. no) in JCL knowledge (F = 4.402, α =.036) was performed. Finally, ANOVA analysis of the mean external attribution differences in the knowledge of JCL (F = 4.402, α =.036).
