Academic Management and Instructional Practices of Higher Education Institutions in Lanao Del Norte: Basis for Faculty Development Plan
Authors: Zalsos Emma , Corpuz Gerlinda G
Published: May 2024

Academic management and instructional practices synergize within higher education, with effective management enhancing teaching quality and performance. Recognizing this symbiotic relationship, a study was conducted in Lanao del Norte to explore this correlation and develop a faculty development plan. Through in-depth interviews and a survey of 300 faculty members, including professionals, instructors, and lecturers, across various disciplines and institutions, data was gathered during the 2023-2024 academic year. Statistical analyses were employed to discern patterns, including mean, frequency, percentage, standard deviation, Pearson-r, and ANOVA. Surprisingly, the study found that factors like educational attainment, position, and training attendance did not significantly correlate with assessments of academic management or instructional practices. Moreover, no meaningful association emerged between faculty perceptions of planning, organizing, directing, and controlling within academic management and their instructional practices. These findings underscore the need to elevate the focus on academic management and align it with faculty descriptions of instructional practices. Consequently, the study proposes a tailored faculty development plan to enhance academic management and instructional quality, fostering sustained excellence within higher education institutions.

Authors: Madrid Emelita T
Published: May 2024

This paper outlined the findings from an empirical investigation to ascertain the differences on the extent of tourism development along with PESTLE factor and how tourism should be sustainably developed as analyzed and perceived by three groups of stakeholders in Zambales: Local Government Unit, Selected Resort Management/customers service office and customers. Based from the findings, the researcher concluded that the three groups of stakeholders such as; Local government unit, management/customer service office and customers/guests, had important contribution for the sustainable tourism development in the province of Zambales. The results of this study provide a better understanding of the perceptions held by tourism stakeholders towards the current state of the tourism industry and how it could be developed holistically. The tourism development in Zambales described as high extent as to political, economic, socio-cultural, technological, legal and environmental factor. The results concluded that tourism development could significantly contribute to economic growth in the province of Zambales through creating new business opportunities to improve standard of living of the community by providing employment. In this regard, in order to improve the current situation of tourism industry, Strategic Development Plan for Sustainable Tourism is proposed. Provincial government of Zambales must design and formulate programs to integrate tourism requirements into all levels of local government unit and would have to take a visionary local government official who has the grit to literally fight for a well-defined and managed tourism industry because it is a chance for municipalities to move up through the help of tourism, yet it requires the cooperation or input of every social and institutional organization such as stakeholders. Therefore, planning for the development of tourism based on sustainable economic development, growth and prosperity of local communities can be effective.

Endovascular Management of a Ruptured Aneurysm on a Posterior Inferior Cerebellar Artery with Extradural C2-Origin: Case Report and Literature Review
Authors: Dahl Rasmus Holmboe , Horn Jr Gary Lloyd , Metwalli Zeyad , Gopinath Shankar Prakash , Benndorf Goetz
Published: May 2024

Extracranial vascular pathology uncommonly causes intracranial subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Among possible lesions are aneurysms at the craniocervical junction arising from a posterior inferior cerebellar artery (PICA) with an extradural origin. We describe a case of a 55-year-old female presenting with a sudden and severe headache. A computed tomography scan revealed a SAH within the fourth ventricle and cervical spinal canal, and a ruptured saccular aneurysm on a PICA with extradural C2-origin. Despite difficult access anatomy, endovascular treatment was feasible and resulted in subtotal initial occlusion and preservation of distal PICA flow. Upon 3-month follow-up, the aneurysm was completely occluded with a patent PICA. The patient’s clinical status remained stable at the 1.5-year follow-up. In conclusion, we present a rare case of an aneurysm originating from a PICA with extradural C2-origin that was treated endovascularly with preservation of the PICA.

Underpass Water Logging System Using IOT and ML
Authors:   Associate Professor ISE ,The Oxford College of Engineering
Published: May 2024

In recent years, the surge in population growth has exacerbated numerous challenges for both humans and the environment, including issues like inadequate infrastructure and frequent occurrences of waterlogging in underpasses. During heavy rainfall, underpasses often become inundated, posing significant risks to passing vehicles and exacerbating traffic congestion. This is primarily due to ineffective drainage systems and flawed designs for diverting rainwater away from the underpasses. To address these pressing issues, this paper proposes an IoT-based solution aimed at monitoring and managing heavy traffic within underpasses. The primary objective is to establish a comprehensive framework capable of continuously monitoring the water levels within underpasses. By leveraging IoT technology, this framework can activate warning signs and implement traffic control measures in real-time to mitigate the risks posed by waterlogging and alleviate traffic congestion. This innovative approach not only offers a proactive solution to the immediate challenges faced by underpasses but also lays the foundation for a more sustainable and efficient urban infrastructure management system. Through the integration of IoT sensors and intelligent control mechanisms, this framework promises to enhance the resilience of underpasses to adverse weather conditions while optimizing traffic flow, ultimately contributing to safer and more livable urban environments .

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE ROUTE NETWORK OF PUBLIC TRANSPORT OF THE CITY OF BARNAUL
Authors: Siyutin Igor'
Published: May 2024

The development of a city is closely related to the state of its transport system and the spatial organization of urban public transport. In general, a number of transport problems can be noted for the city related to the waiting time for transport, the provision of various areas with urban public transport routes, etc. These problems have become particularly relevant in the 21st century and have become very actively discussed. The article is devoted to the analysis of the route network of the city of Barnaul, as well as the number of rolling stock on the routes. Particular attention is paid to routes where there is a shortage of rolling stock. The purpose of the work is to analyze the current state of the route network of the city of Barnaul and identify problems. The main methods were literature analysis, as well as monitoring public transport using the 2GIS service. In general, it can be noted that the city’s public transport runs stably and interruptions occur due to weather conditions (in particular freezing) or traffic situations (congestion in the morning and evening); there is also a dependence of preferential traffic to the city center and from the city center to depending on the time of day.

The method for the ring expansion of tertiary cyclobutanol 30 catalyzed by silver salts has proved useful to obtain the title tetralone 4.
Dance Bar Ban: Doing a Feminist Legal Ethnography
Authors: Dalwai Sameena
Published: May 2024

This paper explores the methodological journey of undertaking a study of the legal ban on bar dancing in Mumbai and Maharashtra. A Legal Ethnography allows an understanding of the multiple layers involved in the creation of the dance bar ban and a feminist perspective focuses on those most affected by the law i.e. the bar dancers. Through interviews, group discussions and field observations, the study tries to comprehend the women who work in the dance bars and the world they weave for their customers.Yet the study moves beyond the bargirls towards the political actors to ask the question, why the ban? and dwells on not only the legislative process of passing a legislation to ban dancing but also the politics of banning erotic labour in Mumbai.This study coins new terms such as ‘Caste Capital’ to donate the cultural practices, knowledge and behaviour that allows some communities to excel in some modern occupations such as the women from traditional dancing communities within the dance bar industry and ‘Caste Governance’ to explain the actions of the government in curtailing the new found power, status and money of the bargirls.
Changing Rights to Family Life: Biolegalities in the Globalization of Reproduction
Authors: Wichelen Sonja van
Published: May 2024

This article focuses on Australian court practices that concern the legalization of parenthood for children born out of overseas surrogacy arrangements. Analysing arguments and decisions from federal and local cases, it demonstrates how a “human rights approach” promoted by judges that act in the “best interest of the child” destabilizes the enforcement of local Australian law regarding commercial surrogacy. Ultimately, the article examines how the law interacts with biotechnological changes and how legal justifications engage with biological and social knowledge that are creating a changing landscape of rights and ethics around surrogacy. Using the concept of “biolegality”, it conceptualizes rights as emerging at the intersection of law and biology in the context of global inequality and migration. It examines the question of which rights-claims are based on genetic truth, and which ones on legal truth. Contrary to conventional understandings that in the pursuit of justice “law lags behind technology,” the article demonstrates how legal knowledge interacts with the life sciences and technologies to build the concept of rights. Moreover, the interaction of information, facts and knowledges includes strong references to “adoption discourse” suggesting a reframing of surrogacy issues through the framework of legal adoption.
AI-criminaliteit: een verkenning van actuele verschijningsvormen

AI crime: an exploration of current appearances

This article, based on a literature review, looks at the ways in which AI can be used for criminal activities. The literature can be divided in three categories: (1) crimes with AI, (2) crimes on AI, and (3) crimes by AI. The first category consists of the use of AI to commit traditional forms of crime. A well-known form is deepfakes in which people are fooled with non-existent images. A second category is crime directed against AI. For example, an attempt is made to hack the AI itself or deliberately influence a decision model. In the third category, AI commits crimes without any human action. In such cases, AI makes decisions that are punishable by the letter of the law, like e.g. discriminatory practices. Finally, the article covers legal discussions on liability, responsibility and criminalization of AI-crime.

Collaborating with police machines. Police professionalism in the age of artificial intelligence

Artificial intelligence (AI) is slowly but fundamentally changing police practice. Processes of human sensemaking are increasingly augmented and sometimes automated by AI. As a consequence, policemen have to work together with police machines. This requires new knowledge and skills. The foundation of these competences is a digital mindset. In addition, data skills, software skills, and legal and ethical knowledge and skills are crucial parts of the required craftmanship. Police organizations are faced with the task of facilitating learning processes. These processes preferably take place in operational teams by supporting the use of AI applications for tasks at hand.

Purpose: To list the abnormalities observed on MRI in the exploration of anterior knee pain.
Patients and methods: Prospective descriptive and analytical study, in patients with gonalgia having undergone an MRI during the period from October 1, 2019 to July 31, 2020. The parameters studied were: age, sex, lesions observed and lesion associations. Fisher's Exact test was used to assess the difference in proportion.
Results: The mean age of the patients was 40.4 ± 16.6 years.  There were 49 (58.3%) male patients. Patellar instability and anterior fat contention of the knee were the main lesions observed, affecting 51.2% of patients, respectively. The lesions involved in patellar instability were dominated by patellar chondropathy (41.7%), patella alta (14.3%) and patellar dysplasia (10.7%). The entities found in the conflicts of the anterior fat of the knee included patellofemoral friction syndrome (30.9%) and patellar bursopathy (27.4%). There was a statistically significant association between patellofemoral friction syndrome and patellar instability. Patellar enthesopathy was present in 26.2% of patients.
Conclusion: Patellar instability and conflicts of the anterior fat of the knee are the most common lesions on MRI for anterior knee pain.

The wandering spleen is a rare anomaly linked to abnormal mobility of the spleen due to hyper laxity (or absence) of the means of fixity of congenital or acquired origin. It is most often diagnosed late at the complication stage.
We report the case of a 48-year-old female patient, with 10 gestities, 10 parities and a history of recurrent abdominal pain associated with an abdomino-pelvic mass.
The patient was admitted to the emergency room of Cocody University Hospital for a recent worsening intermittent chronic abdominal pain syndrome associated with an abdominal mass. Clinical examination showed a tender abdominopelvic mass, discreetly lateralized to the right, mistaken for hepatomegaly. Ultrasound was not performed due to the large volume of the abdomen. Abdominal computed tomography with injection of contrast product showed a large, completely necrotic ectopic spleen with defect in parenchymal enhancement associated with ascites. The diagnosis of chronic torsion of the pedicle of a wandering spleen, complicated by ischemic necrosis was retained. The indication for radical surgery has been raised. The patient was lost to follow-up.
RÉSUMÉ 
La rate errante (wandering spleen) est une anomalie rare liée à une mobilité anormale de la rate par hyper laxité (ou absence) des moyens de fixité d’origine congénitale ou acquise. Son diagnostic est le plus souvent tardif au stade de complications.
Nous rapportons un cas  de torsion chronique du pédicule d'une rate errante compliquée de nécrose ischémique chez une patiente de 48 ans, G10P10, aux antécédents  de douleurs abdominales récurrentes associées à une  masse abdomino-pelvienne. La patiente était admise aux urgences pour un syndrome douloureux abdominal chronique intermittent d’aggravation récente associé à une masse abdominale. L’examen clinique a montré une masse abdomino-pelvienne sensible discrètement latéralisée à droite prise à tort pour une hépatomégalie. L’échographie n’a pas été réalisée, compte tenu du volume important de l’abdomen. La tomodensitométrie abdominale avec injection de produit de contraste avait montré une grosse rate ectopique totalement nécrosée avec défaut de rehaussement parenchymateux associée à une ascite. Le diagnostic de torsion chronique du pédicule d'une rate errante, compliquée de nécrose ischémique était retenu. L’indication d’un geste chirurgical radical  a été posée. La patiente a été perdue de vue.
Dilemme diagnostic et rôle de l’imagerie dans la tuberculose pulmonaire miliaire en postpartum
Authors: Tambe Joshua
Published: May 2024

Most tuberculosis (TB) infections in women of reproductive age occur around pregnancy and the postpartum period. Miliary TB is a disseminated form of the disease which is rare during pregnancy and postpartum but potentially fatal. The clinical presentation of miliary pulmonary TB is not specific and body specimens may be difficult to obtain or give a negative finding, leading to delayed diagnosis and treatment. The decision to investigate patients’ symptoms with imaging can be rewarding as the miliary pattern can be easily recognized. We report a case of postpartum miliary pulmonary TB in a client negative for human immunodeficiency virus infection that was diagnosed with chest computed tomography after prolonged illness and no certain clinical diagnosis.

The disease associated with Ig G4 is a tissue damage characterized by a lympho-plasmocytic infiltration progressing to fibrosis. This condition has mainly been described in Asia. It can affect one or more organs synchronously or metachronously. The formal diagnosis is based on clinical or radiological, biological and immunohistochemical arguments. The authors report the first Burkinabè case of a disease associated with Ig G4, based on bilateral orbital masses of chronic course and cardiac locations in a 25-year-old man living in a rural environment. They show the interest of medical imaging, biology and immunohistochemistry in the diagnosis of this condition. They also underline the diagnostic and therapeutic difficulties in our context due to the low socio-economic and educational level as well as the insufficiency of the technical platform
RÉSUMÉ 
La maladie associée aux Ig G4 est une atteinte tissulaire caractérisée par une infiltration lympho plasmocytaire évoluant vers la fibrose. Cette affection a surtout été décrite en Asie. Elle peut toucher un ou plusieurs organes de façon synchrone ou métachrone. Le diagnostic formel repose sur des arguments immuno histochimiques.
Les auteurs rapportent le premier cas burkinabè d’une maladie associée aux Ig G4, devant des masses orbitaires bilatérales d’évolution chronique et des localisations cardiaques chez un jeune homme de 25 ans vivant en milieu rural. Ils montrent d’une part l’intérêt de l’imagerie médicale, de la biologie et de l’immuno-histochimie dans le diagnostic de cette affection. D’autre part, ils soulignent les difficultés diagnostiques et thérapeutiques dans notre contexte d’exercice lié au faible niveau socio-économique et d’instruction ainsi qu’à l’insuffisance du plateau technique

Objectif: To establish the diagnostic reference levels of the radiography of the abdomen without preparation of the dog at the EISMV of Dakar.
Methodology: Our study took place in the radiology room of the EISMV in Dakar. To do this, we worked on thirty (30) animals that underwent abdominal examinations without preparation in the radiology room without consideration of weight, size, or age. The parameters (Kv, Mas) of these radiographic examinations were introduced in the MICADO software for the calculation of the doses at entry. Then with the R software, the 75th percentile of the dose distribution measured at the entrance surface (corresponding to the NRD) was determined.
Results: At the end of the study, we worked on 30 dogs. The mean Kilovoltage was 65.2 ± 12.08, the mean milliampere was 10 ± 0 and the mean Focus-Film Distance was 100.27 ± 1.227.  The diagnostic reference level for abdominal examinations is 0.85 mGy, with an average dose to the patient's surface is 0.6497 ± 0.222 mGy.
Conclusion: The 75th percentile of the surface entry dose was 0.85 mGy with a mean dose of 0.6497 ± 0.222 mGy.

Objective: To evaluate and compare the diagnostic performance of strain elastography (SE), B-mode ultrasound (B-mode US), and the combination of the two modalities in the characterization of benign and malignant breast lesions.
Materials and methods: The prospective study included 375 breast masses, between January 2017 and January 2020. B mode ultrasound and elastography were established for each mass. The area under the curve (AUC), sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive value (PPV) were calculated for comparison between elastography, B mode ultrasound, and the combination of the two exams. The pathological findings were used as the reference standard.
Results: Among 375 breast masses, 77 of the lesions were malignant, 298 were benign. The association of elastography with B mode ultrasound increased the AUC from 0.62 to 0.86 (95% CI: 0.78, 0.93; P < 0.0001); specificity from 23.6% (95% CI: 23%, 35.6%) to 98.03% (95% CI: 96.1%, 100%; P < 0.0001) with a decrease in sensitivity from 100% to 72.92% (CI 95%: 66.8%, 79.1%; P < 0.001); and PPV from 29.27% (CI 95%: 23%, 35.6%) to 92.11% (CI 95%: 88.4%, 95.8%; P < 0.0001).
Conclusion: The combination of elastography and B mode ultrasound increases diagnostic performance in the characterization of benign and malignant breast lesions.
RESUME
Objectif : Évaluer et comparer les performances diagnostiques de l’élastographie statique (ES) et de l’échographie mode B (US mode B) et de la combinaison des deux modalités dans la caractérisation des lésions mammaires bénignes et malignes.
Matériels et méthodes : Étude prospective, incluant 375 masses mammaires, entre janvier 2017 et janvier 2020. L’échographie mode B et l’élastographie ont été établées pour chaque masse. L’aire sous la courbe, la sensibilité, la spécificité et la valeur prédictive positive (VPP) ont été calculées pour la comparaison entre l’échographie mode B et la combinaison des deux examens. L’analyse histologique a été considérée comme l’examen de référence. 
Résultats : Parmi les 375 masses mammaires, on notait 77 masses malignes et 298 masses bénignes. L’association de l’élastographie à l’échographie mode B augmente l’aire sous la courbe de 0,62 à 0.86 (IC 95% : 0.78, 0.93 ; P < 0.0001) ; spécificité de 23.6% (IC 95% : 23%, 35.6%) à 98.03% (IC 95% : 96.1%, 100% ; P < 0.0001) avec une baisse de sensibilité de 100% à 72.92% (IC 95% : 66.8%, 79.1% ; P < 0.001) ; et VPP de 29.27% (IC 95% : 23%, 35.6%) à 92.11% (IC 95% : 88.4%, 95.8% ; P < 0.0001).
Conclusion : La combinaison de l’élastographie et de l’échographie mode B augmente les performances diagnostiques dans la caractérisation des lésions mammaires bénignes et malignes.

End-of-game possessions during the final minutes of a game often have a significant impact on the final result of the match. The purpose of the present study was to analyse the structure and efficacy of possession play types in the last two minutes of the fourth quarter and overtime of EuroLeague close matches and relate them to the result of the game. The offensive play types of 90 EuroLeague games were analysed. 955 end-of-game possessions were analysed and categorized into 11 predefined play types. Sport Scout STA software was used as the observation instrument. The results indicated that the isolation (ISO) play type (23.6%) had the highest frequency, while Hand-Off (0.63%) was the least frequent play type. Cut (CUT) play type was the most effective (82.4%), producing 1.58 Points Per Possession (PPP), followed by PB (69%), and 1.33 PPP. Post Up, ISO, and Spot Up play types were the least effective, producing 0.78–0.98 PPP. Winning teams had longer-lasting possessions compared to defeated teams. Longer-lasting possessions were less effective than possessions that lasted less than 6 seconds. More cooperative play types increased the efficacy of possessions at the end of the game.

Conditioning activities are widely used in sports for improving performance in a subsequent main activity. Therefore, understanding the organization of these exercises is important for athletes. Therefore, the objective this study was to evaluate whether the conditioning activity absolute intensity affects the seated shot put performance. Twenty-four physically active male adults were subjected, every 24 hours apart and in a randomized manner, to the following situations: control (no conditioning activity), seat shot 2 kg ball; seated shot 4 kg ball and; seated shot 6 kg ball. Three minutes after these shots, participants performed the seat shot put main activity (4kg). To record the seat shot put performance, the greatest distance of the six attempts was considered. The shot put distance was greater in conditioning activity compared to the control situation (p < .05). There was no difference in shot put distance among conditioning activity situations (p > .05). In addition, individual analysis using typical error showed that 63% of the participants responded positively to the conditioning activities. In conclusion, despite the beneficial effect of the conditioning activity in relation to the control situation, there was no effect of the absolute intensity of the conditioning activity on shot put performance.

A sociedade enfrentou uma pandemia ocasionada pelo novo coronavírus. Este vírus responsável pela Covid-19 desencadeou mudanças significativas nas emoções, nos sentimentos e na vida dos indivíduos. Diante disso, este trabalho objetivou investigar a percepção de professores de Ciências e Biologia de diferentes realidades escolares acerca do processo ensino-aprendizagem dessas disciplinas em Abaetetuba-Pará durante o cenário da pandemia, assim como os desafios enfrentados por eles. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de campo com abordagem quali-quantitativa. Foram aplicados questionários on-line com quatro professores de escolas e realidades distintas. O trabalho apresenta caráter relevante para a comunidade científica e sociedade, considerando que os resultados proporcionam maior entendimento dos impactos ocasionados pela pandemia na educação. Os docentes relataram: sobrecarga de trabalho, relação aluno-professor afetada, falta de interesse dos alunos, dificuldades com as ferramentas digitais, assim como pouco tempo que tiveram para adequação das aulas. Os professores se esforçaram da forma que puderam para garantir que o ensino de Ciências e Biologia pudesse acontecer mesmo diante das adversidades impostas pelo cenário da pandemia de Covid-19. A percepção dos docentes entrevistados neste trabalho condiz com outras verificadas na literatura, apresentando certas peculiaridades regionais e locais, mas com relevância significativa para o entendimento da realidade da educação brasileira nesse momento incomum de aulas remotas.

Published: May 2024

O presente trabalho tem por objetivo conhecer melhor os fatores que influenciam o desempenho acadêmico em disciplinas onde se ensina Desenho Tridimensional Assistido por Computador (CAD 3D), tendo sido desencadeado pela constatação, ao longo de mais de uma década de lecionação destas matérias, da enorme disparidade nas capacidades de aprendizagem e prática dos discentes, bem como as surpreendentes dificuldades que alguns alunos com bom aproveitamento noutras unidades curriculares evidenciavam nestas disciplinas. Complementarmente, analisam-se os níveis de satisfação dos alunos decorrentes das alterações associadas à situação da pandemia Covid-19. A investigação reporta-se a alunos do primeiro ano das licenciaturas em Design Industrial e Engenharia Aeronáutica da Universidade da Beira Interior, tendo sido efetuado durante o primeiro semestre letivo a 55 alunos que aceitaram nela participar de uma forma livre e informada.  Foram recolhidos dados sobre raciocínio diferencial, através da Bateria de Provas de Raciocínio Diferencial (BPRD, Almeida, 1986), o desempenho acadêmico, o número de faltas e os níveis médios de satisfação dos alunos antes (2017-18) e depois (2019-20) da pandemia. Os resultados revelaram correlações significativas e moderadas de, respetivamente .47 e .38 entre os raciocínios mecânico e numérico e a classificação na disciplina. Já as correlações encontradas entre raciocínio espacial e verbal e a classificação na disciplina não foram significativas. A correlação entre o número de faltas às aulas e a classificação na disciplina revelou-se, igualmente, moderada, significativa e negativa (r= -.37). A comparação do nível médio de satisfação dos alunos em contexto pré e pós pandemia demonstrou um aumento ligeiro dos valores. Constata-se que a necessidade de continuadas e, por vezes complexas, manipulações espaciais necessárias ao exercício e domínio do CAD 3D, encontra claramente suporte nas capacidades de raciocínio mecânico e numérico. As diferentes capacidades reveladas pelos alunos tornam potencialmente pertinente a implementação da avaliação de processos cognitivos no início das aulas e de treino cognitivo para os alunos com níveis mais baixos. Os dados sugerem a importância da presença física e virtual nas aulas, sendo que a virtualização acrescida decorrente da situação da pandemia foi acompanhada de um ligeiro aumento do nível de satisfação. Assim, disciplinas e áreas científicas que impliquem uma continuada e complexa manipulação mental de formas e objetos parecem depender de capacidades prévias dos discentes que podem explicar a forte variação no seu rendimento acadêmico e do nível e contexto de envolvimento nas atividades escolares.
