Relation between Moral and Legal Normativity in Workers from Legal Field
Authors: Melentieva Aliona
Published: May 2024

Law enforcement specialists have an important role in society considering that their activity is based on ensuring compliance with legislation, legal norms by citizens, the defense of fundamental human rights and freedoms. Specialists in this field have a special legal consciousness – it is part of their professional training, that is, their attitude towards the law is more special than that of people who do not work in the legal field. In this respect, we have carried out a research on the attitude towards the rule of law among lawyers (specialists in the field of protection of the rules of law) in relation to the manifestation of moral normativity. In the given research, 417 participants from the legal field were involved who expressed their attitude towards the legal norm determined by legal tolerance or intolerance, as well as their opinion regarding different situations related to moral norms. Thus, we assume that moral normativity correlates positively with legal tolerance (legal realism) among specialists in the field of law enforcement.

GOVERNANCE AND WATER LANDSCAPE IN KHULNA CITY: PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE DIRECTION
Authors: Salauddin Md , Zohir Sajjad , Sarker Avijit Kumer
Published: May 2024

This paper examines the water landscape in Khulna City from two perspectives: household water supply and the importance of surface water in the city’s ecology. The authors seek to explore whether the current water supply system can achieve goal 6.1 of the Sustainable Development Goals (Universal and Equitable access to safe and affordable water for all), and the drivers of surface water deterioration and the city’s ecological changes. Both the primary and secondary materials have been consulted. Analysis of water infrastructure and water body encroachments have been explored using remote sensing and GIS tools. Investigation of the water supply networks in Khulna city shows a clear geographical division, where the planned residential and affluent areas enjoy most of the water network coverage. Affluent areas with piped networks and other sources consumed much more water than other parts of the city. Map-based and observational analysis of the Mayur River and Nirala Canal asserts that the water bodies have been encroached severely. About 65% of the total area of the Nirala canal has been encroached on by the government as well as private organizations and individuals. Businesses on and around the Mayur River are booming. As a result, rivers and canals are unable to maintain water flows resulting in higher intensity of water logging and other ecological disruptions. Several recommendations including supply-based water management, hierarchical water tariffs, increasing water supply coverage, the introduction of non-conflicting activities around water bodies and inter-organizational collaboration have been proposed to make the city resilient against the adverse impacts of climate and man-made disruptions.
DO LOCAL NEWSPAPERS REFLECT THE LOCALS? A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON LOCAL AND NATIONAL NEWS COVERAGE IN KHULNA
Authors: Md. Shariful Islam  , Md. Shamim Hossain  , Safayat Hossen  , Khairul Bashar
Published: May 2024

Local newspapers reflect the voices of the periphery as they have direct and close connections with the local community. This study aims to examine the coverage policy of local newspapers in Khulna, with a particular focus on a comparative analysis of local and national news. This study followed a sequential research design, employing content analysis and in-depth interview methods. The content analysis method was used to assess the several aspects of news coverage and six in-depth interviews were conducted to explore the explanation of content analysis. A total of 2,278 news articles from three local newspapers were scanned and manually inputted into a coding sheet. These codes were analyzed with Microsoft Excell-16 and news-theme was visualized with NVivo-11. The analysis was divided into three phases (i.e., Comparative coverage, news theme, and geographical proximity). The major findings indicate that the ratio of local and national news coverage demonstrates minimal variance in terms of both frequency and column-inch metrics. It has been revealed, however, that the majority of advertisements (96.02%) come from local sources but coverage of local news is comparatively lower, accounting for 53.90%. The most covered local news theme is crime (41.77%), while political news gets highest coverage in the national news category which is 29.81%. Additionally, Jessore district, one of the nearest districts of Khulna receives the highest coverage which is 13.74% while Meherpur district, geographically remotest district of Khulna, received the lowest coverage. The majority of local news is capital-centric, with the Dhaka division receiving the maximum coverage at 93.02%.  It indicates that local news was not sufficiently prioritized in local newspapers. Even while geographical proximity acted as a significant factor in news coverage, the news is predominantly urban-oriented.

Objetivos: Analisar as notificações de morte encefálica (ME) recebidas pela Central de Transplantes (CET) do estado de Roraima (RR) de 2017 a 2021. Métodos: Trata-se de estudo transversal, quantitativo e observacional no qual foram analisadas todas as notificações recebidas pela CET no período de 2017 a 2021, resultando em 120 pacientes, dos seguintes centros de saúde: Hospital Geral de Roraima (HGR), Hospital Confederação Nacional das Cooperativas Médicas (UNIMED), Hospital da Criança Santo Antônio (HCSA), Hospital das Clínicas (HC) e Hospital Lotty Íris (HLI). Os dados foram coletados do sistema de gerenciamento de dados da central e repassados para a ficha de coleta desenvolvida pela pesquisadora. Resultados: Este estudo analisou 119 notificações após a exclusão de uma devido a dados conflitantes. Houve predominância do sexo masculino (58%), com trauma cranioencefálico sendo a causa mais frequente de ME. Ao todo, foram realizadas seis captações de órgãos, todas no HGR. Este estudo não encontrou associações significativas entre a captação de órgãos e sexo, idade, local de internação e ano. Conclusão: Há grandes desafios em relação à doação de órgãos em RR, com uma taxa de captação baixa ao longo de 5 anos. Apenas o HGR obteve sucesso em realizar captações de órgãos, diferentemente de outros hospitais notificadores. São necessárias melhorias, destacando a importância de se realizarem mais estudos para uma análise mais aprofundada dos dados.
Between the Languages: Delineating the Motives and Attitudes of Language Learners Towards Code-Switching
Authors: Raymunde Pedro Jr
Published: May 2024

This study was conducted to analyze the motives and attitudes of students towards code switching. This study employed a qualitative phenomenology research design. According to the findings, the students revealed that they encountered different challenges in terms of their teaching and learning especially in speaking correctly without any error because of the rules and other things they must follow as well as to consider during the making of sentences. The speaking skill of the students will never be as constant because language is not only dynamic but also code-switching can be more expressive and active to express themselves and share their thoughts much easier. Furthermore, code-switching alternates between the speakers’ native language and the second language which they aim to acquire. It is said that English should be used to increase the input and output of the target language and that the L1 should be avoided. Therefore, nowadays, people are bilinguals and they spoke language to which they are comfortable. Data suggest that codeswitching can help with language fluency by keeping both languages active and accessible, and therefore providing an alternative means of communicating meaning.

Authors: NGO CRISTY GRACE , Cubelo Ramil R.
Published: May 2024

This qualitative corpus-based study employing epistemic analysis uncovered the epistemic modality (EM) markers used and their communicative functions in the seven inaugural speeches of the seven Philippine 5th Republic presidents. The findings revealed the preponderant use of epistemic modal verbs with 152 occurrences (81.72%), followed by epistemic lexical verbs with 20 occurrences (10.75%), epistemic modal adverbs with 9 occurrences (4.84%), and epistemic modal adjectives with 5 occurrences (2.69%). Moreover, the top-five modal verbs operated in the presidential inaugurals are will with 97 instances (66.9%), can with 28 instances (19.31%), shall with 9 instances (6.21%), would with 6 instances (4.14%), and could with 5 instances (3.44%). Meanwhile, should and might were never used by any president. In this regard, the presidents are confident, committed, bold, and certain with their statements; some are tentative and quite confident but still communicatively sensitive and polite; and few are uncertain but still diplomatic. Further, the communicative functions of the EM markers were categorized to high-intermediate-low modality values, certain-probable-possible semantic meanings, and close-near-distant epistemic distances.

Assessing Virtual Reality in Oil Painting Education: A Perspective from the Technology Acceptance Model
Authors: Gao Nannan , Bin Ibrahim Yuhanis , Bin Omran Zailuddin Mohd Firdaus Naif , Heng Yao
Published: May 2024

This research assessed the integration of virtual reality (VR) into oil painting education through the lens of the technology acceptance model (TAM). The study, limited to Guangdong Province, China, drew responses largely from educators and learners and modularly evaluated perceived educational value (PEV), perceived technological accessibility (PTA), intention to adopt VR (IAVR), and VR utilisation in education (VRUE). Based on a crosssectional survey of 373 respondents, this study deployed structural equation modelling (SEM) to test five hypotheses. Both PEV and PTA significantly influence IAVR, which subsequently affects VRUE. PTA had a direct interface with VRUE, whereas PEV did not. This suggests that while the educational merits accrued through VR have decreased, user-friendly VR solutions is the more immediate determinant of the actualisation of VR in education. This research enriches the extant literature by extending the TAM to an arts educational environment and underscores the implications for the adoption of emergent technologies for the augmentation of pedagogical practises. This study also provides practical implications for stakeholders in educational technology, as it argues that the key to widespread acceptance of VR in educational settings lies in the availability of user-friendly, comprehensive, and accessible VR solutions.

Published: May 2024

Salivary gland tumors are rare counting only 0.5% of all cancers, only 2% among them are lymphomas. Burkitt lymphomas is an aggressive mature non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma characterized by MYC oncogene activation, commonly occurring in nodal sites, however the extranodal sites are mostly seen in immunodeficiency associated Burkitt lymphoma as it is seen in patients with HIV infection. Clinically, the symptoms are related to the acute enlargement of gland due to the fast growing of the tumor and its rapid cells turnover. Diagnostic assessment requires biological investigations as well as cytological, histological and immunohistochemical exams to put out the diagnosis of Burkitt lymphoma. However, imaging is paramount by CT and MRI which finds its interest in its sensibility to characterize salivary gland tumors by the diffusion sequence and the estimation of apparent coefficient of diffusion. That being said, the diagnosis of parotid gland lymphoma is a differential diagnosis of parotid tumor because of its rarity. Our case is about a middle-aged woman suffering from a unilateral parotid swelling, its uncommon evolution pushed the investigations which leads to discovering a HIV infection, a diagnose the patient with a HIV-associated Burkitt lymphoma. We put the light on salivary gland location of this cancer by screening literature on this subject which benefitted from important advances of treatments, offering good outcomes in terms of freedom of event and overall survival.

The growing integration of vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication within multitier heterogeneous networks (HetNets) introduces challenges in maintaining seamless connectivity and Quality of Service (QoS) for vehicular users. This paper introduces a modified Multicriteria and QoS-aware Vertical Handover Decision Algorithm (mV2I-MHA) tailored to address these challenges. By considering multiple criteria - such as packet loss ratio, cost, available bandwidth and packet latency - the proposed solution intelligently manages vertical handovers between different network tiers. Numerous Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM) techniques have been proposed to address the right target network selection aiming to reduce unnecessary handovers, incorrect network selections and the associated processing time. However, many of these solutions overlook the significance of varying criteria weights in vertical handover decisions made by their selection algorithms. Through comprehensive simulations and comparisons with existing techniques, the effectiveness of the proposed – in this paper - solution is demonstrated in enhancing handover success rate, reducing handover failure rate, minimizing latency, and overall elevating the QoS for V2I communication in multitier HetNets. MATLAB R2020a was utilized to simulate the work. Using packet latency and handover failure as the metrics for performance, the results were contrasted with those of an existing works in terms of handover failure rate and packet delay. The developed mV2I-MHA showed considerable percentage reductions of 10.5% and 23.9% in packet latency and handover failure rate, respectively.

Most varicose veins at the infra-abdominal levels are due to primary causes. However, approximately 5-20% of patients experience these secondary to other pathologies such as right heart diastolic dysfunction. Due to the infra-abdominal location of the varicocele, cardiac and vascular secondary pathologies may be observed in patients with varicocele, and this may be expected to lead to abnormal findings on echocardiography. For this purpose, in this study, we aimed to compare some echocardiographic parameters of right heart origin in healthy individuals and high-grade varicocele patients. This study was conducted prospectively and multidisciplinary. Male patients between the ages of 18-50 with only high-grade and left varicocele were included in the 'patient' group. The control group consisted of healthy, volunteer men between the ages of 18-50 who did not have any known diseases. All participants underwent echocardiography at the Cardiology clinic. In echocardiography; right atrium and ventricle diameters, tricuspid regurgitation, ejection fraction (EF), hepatic vein, inferior vena cava (IVC), portal vein, inferior abdominal artery diameters, and pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) values were measured. Age, body mass index (BMI), smoking status and echocardiographic data of all participants were recorded. After exclusion criteria, the study was completed with a total of 259 people. 104 of them are varicocele patient; 155 of them constitute the control group. In the investigation, it was observed that BMI, EF, PAP, hepatic vein diameter, IVC diameter, portal vein diameter, inferior abdominal artery diameter and smoking status were significantly higher in the patient group. On the other hand, age was found to be significantly higher in the control group. This study showed that symptomatic high-grade varicocele patients have a higher risk of cardiovascular and hemodynamic disease than the normal population. Therefore, in the light of our results, we recommend that men with high-grade symptomatic varicocele undergo cardiovascular and hemodynamic evaluation with cardiology consultation.

Natural phenols are significant functional substances that are commonly present in plants and provide advantages for human health. Phenolics can be utilized for a variety of therapeutic applications, such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, and antibacterial activities. This work aimed to fractionate and identify the phenolic compounds present in ethylacetate fractions of the methanolic leaf extracts of A. conyzoides. Fractionation and purification of the ethylacetate fraction using column chromatography and TLC, followed by FTIR and LC-MS for identification, were employed in this work. While the FTIR spectroscopy was used to identify the fractions with –OH functional group, LCMS was used to identify the phenolics. After fractionation and purification, six ethylacetate samples were obtained, each with different Rf values, of which three showed a pronounced presence of OH functional groups in phenolics. Subsequently, four phenolic compounds were identified: furocoumaric acid, liquiritin, isorhamnetin, and syringin. This research has demonstrated that ethylacetate fraction of A. conyzoides methanol leaf extract is a good source of the phenolic compounds: Furocoumaric acid, Liquiritin, Isorhamnetin, and syringin.
