Correlates of Commitment to Career Choices of Pre-Service Education Students in Selected Universities in Kenya
Authors:   University of Eastern Africa, Baraton, Mwangi Petronila Ndungwa
Published: March 2024

The study attempted to establish the correlates of commitment to career choice of pre-service education students in six public and private universities in Kenya. The third and fourth year pre-service education students were the respondents in this study. Correlational research design and concurrent mixed method approach was employed in this study. Purposive, cluster and convenience sampling methods were used. Data were gathered by the use of questionnaires and interviews. In data analysis, frequencies, means, standard deviation, linear regression and Pearson product moment correlation coefficient were used. The pre-service education students were found to be moderately committed to their career choice and that intrinsic motivation, self-concept, status of the teaching profession, fallback and socio-cultural beliefs were correlated to career choice. Fallback however had an inverse correlation to the commitment of career choice. The study recommends that factors which motivate pre-service education student’s choice of teaching as a career should be clearly understood, so that only students motivated by those factors which were found to promote commitment, like intrinsic motivation, self-concept, status of the teaching profession and social cultural beliefs are the ones placed to train as teachers.

Published: March 2024

Background: NCCN Guidelines for Hematopoietic Growth Factors recommend evaluation and treatment of anemia in patients with cancer. However, a paucity of data exists regarding compliance with these recommendations. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed of patients diagnosed with any solid tumor at Vanderbilt University Medical Center from 2008 to 2017. Tumor registry–confirmed cancer cases were identified by ICD-O codes using the Synthetic Derivative database. Anemia was defined as hemoglobin (Hgb) level ≤11 g/dL and graded according to CTCAE version 5.0. Absolute, functional, and possible functional iron deficiency were defined based on NCCN Guidelines. Results: A total of 25,018 patients met inclusion criteria. Median age was 60 years. The most common malignancies were respiratory tract, prostate, and nonprostate urologic (11% each). Among 8,695 patients with Hgb levels available prior to diagnosis, 1,484 (17%) were noted to be anemic proximal to diagnosis. Of the 25,018 patients, 11,019 (44%) were anemic within 6 months of diagnosis. Of these patients, 4,686 (43%) had grade 2 (moderate) anemia and 9,623 (87%) had normocytic anemia. Patients with retroperitoneal/peritoneal cancers had the highest prevalence of anemia (83/110; 75%). A total of 4,125 (37%) underwent any evaluation of their anemia, of whom 1,742 (16%) had iron studies performed and 1,528 (14%) had vitamin B12 or folate studies performed. Fewer than half of patients with anemia received treatment (n=4,318; 39%), including blood transfusion (n=3,528; 32%), oral iron supplementation (n=1,279; 12%), or intravenous iron supplementation (n=97; 1%). Anemia treatment was significantly more frequent as the grade of anemia increased (any treatment among grade 1/mild: 12%; grade 2/moderate: 31%; grade 3/severe: 77%; χ2 [2, n=11,019]=3,020.6; P<.001). Patients with penile and testicular cancers had the highest prevalence of anemia evaluation (n=57; 79%). Conclusions: Anemia is common in patients with solid tumors; yet, compliance with NCCN Guidelines for evaluation and treatment of anemia remains low. There are opportunities to improve compliance with guidelines across the spectrum of cancer care.

Background: Vitamin D deficiency (VDD) is a widespread issue, especially in Saudi Arabia, with implications for various health conditions. The study aimed to evaluate VDD's prevalence and associated factors among children visiting King Khalid University Hospital (KKUH) in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, to inform public health strategies. Methods: Employing a retrospective study design, medical records from 391 pediatric patients aged 1-14 who visited KKUH from April 2023 to October 2023 were analyzed for vitamin D levels, demographic data, comorbidities, and supplementation status. Based on established thresholds, vitamin D levels were categorized into normal, insufficiency, and deficiency. Statistical analyses, including chi-square tests, assessed the association between vitamin D levels and independent variables. Results: Out of the 391 subjects, 56.8% had normal vitamin D levels, 17.6\% were deficient, and 25.6\% were insufficient. Treatment or prophylaxis was reported in 75.2% of those with normal levels. The prevalence of VDD was not significantly related to gender (p = 0.635) but was significantly associated with age (p < 0.001), with higher deficiency rates observed in older children (10-14 years). Most children (84.4%) were asymptomatic, while specific symptoms like bone ache and fatigue were less commonly reported. Conclusions: The study highlighted a substantial prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency among children in a Saudi Arabian tertiary care setting, with age identified as a significant correlate. These findings emphasize the need for regular screening and targeted vitamin D supplementation strategies in pediatric healthcare practice to mitigate the risks associated with VDD.

Background: Minimal invasive surgical techniques have gained prominence for their safety and efficiency compared to traditional open surgeries. These techniques, including laparoscopy and robotic-assisted surgery, offer advantages such as reduced postoperative pain and shorter hospital stays. However, successful adoption relies on extensive training and knowledge among surgical residents. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional survey study was conducted among surgical residents in Muzaffarpur, Bihar, India. Stratified random sampling ensured representation from government and private healthcare institutions. A structured questionnaire collected data on demographic information, knowledge levels, training experiences, and perceived knowledge gaps. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: Among 50 participants, 80% received formal training, 70% attended workshops/seminars, and 96% observed live surgeries in minimally invasive techniques. However, only 60% had hands-on experience. Perceived knowledge gaps included lack of hands-on training (24\%), limited exposure to complex cases (36%), and difficulty in applying techniques (24%). Knowledge levels improved with years of residency, which is consistent with Indian studies. Conclusion: Addressing knowledge gaps and enhancing training in minimally invasive surgery is essential for surgical residents in Muzaffarpur. Increasing hands-on opportunities, diverse case exposure, and mentorship programs can improve proficiency and patient outcomes.
ECTHR case law on legal liability for offences in the field of environmental protection environment
Authors: Ivchenko Liudmyla
Published: March 2024

Pursuant to Article 55 of the Constitution of Ukraine, everyone has the right, after exhausting all national legal remedies, to apply for protection of their rights and freedoms to the relevant international judicial institutions or international organisations of which Ukraine is a member or participant [1]. One of such organisations is the European Court of Human Rights (ECTHR), which decides on the establishment of violations of human rights enshrined in the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (CCHR). Given that Ukraine has recognised the jurisdiction of the ECTHR and the principle of extending its judgments to third states that are not parties to the case, we consider the study of the Court’s case law to be a necessity for the member states.

This article analyses the ECTHR case law on legal liability for environmental offences. Based on the results of the study, it is found that the peculiarity of the ECTHR judgments in cases concerning environmental offences is the absence of direct enshrining of “environmental” rights in the Convention, and the establishment of the components of such offences by interpreting the existing rules in each individual case.
Problematic issues of gender equality in the European Union: administrative and legal aspect
Authors: Kovalenko Yuliya
Published: March 2024

The article is devoted to gender equality, one of the most relevant topics today, not only in Ukraine, but also in the European Union. Strategic planning of gender policy is an important aspect in achieving the values of equality between women and men. Building a quality strategy requires experience and expert work, in particular, data collection and processing, setting priorities and evaluating the effectiveness of already developed strategies.

The aim of the work is a thorough study of gender equality policy in Ukraine and EU countries in law enforcement agencies.

The methodological basis of the study. In the process of working on the scientific article, such scientific methods as the terminological, systemic-structural, formal-logical, comparative-legal method were used.

Results. The European Union, in particular, the Commission on Gender Equality and Monitoring its Progress, already has some experience in strategic planning to achieve the goals of gender equality, which is implemented in all spheres of life. A review and analysis of this experience can help Ukraine improve approaches and practices for developing strategies in this area.

In Ukraine, scientific research on gender aspects of state policy began in the 90s of the last century. The issue of gender equality should be central in the analysis, planning and adoption of political decisions, budgets, programs, and institutional structures.

The article analyzes actions and trends in the field of gender equality in the EU and Ukraine with the aim of bringing the law enforcement sphere of Ukraine closer to European gender standards.

Conclusions. It was determined that the observance of gender equality or parity democracy is a system of rights, freedoms and duties of a person and a citizen regulated by regulations and provided for by political and legal principles, ensuring the possibility of their equal implementation and observance in all spheres of state and public activity with the help of an appropriate implementation mechanism. Summarizing the European practice, new principles of gender policy are defined, which form the modern ideology of equality.

Published: March 2024

This examination expects to investigate the relationship between financial literacy (FL) and financial inclusion (FI), and to dissect how FI goes about as a mediated in the relationship between FL and women's economic empowerment. Furthermore, the review dives into the control impact of social capital (SC) use as a moderating variable in FL and FI. Used positivism philosophy and deductive approach, and variables scale was adopted. The study collected 350 reliable answers from women working in private universities in the educational sector in Lahore through self-filled surveys using a simple random sampling method on a five-point Likert scale. This research used the AMOS-21 software. This software runs different types of tests e.g., “confirmatory factor analysis (CFA)” which confirms the variable items, and also uses “structural equation modelling (SEM)” to confirm or reject the research hypotheses. A p-value < 0.05 supports the first hypothesis (H1), which states that there is a substantial and beneficial relationship between financial inclusion (FI) and financial literacy (FL). Going on to the second hypothesis (H2), it is established that financial inclusion (FI) and women's economic empowerment (WEE) have a favourable and significant relationship. The third hypothesis (H3) suggests a partial mediation effect by arguing that financial inclusion is mediated by the association between financial literacy and women's economic empowerment. According to the fourth hypothesis (H4), social capital has a moderating effect on the importance and strength of the relationship between financial inclusion and financial literacy. The study's conclusions highlight social capital's strong moderating effect on this relationship. The study emphasises how important financial inclusion and financial literacy are to enhancing women's economic empowerment. It highlights the importance of policymakers and educational institutions recognizing the factors and providing opportunities and resources to enhance women's financial knowledge and skills. The findings underscore the need for proactive measures in the education sector to empower women economically.

Impact of Crypto Assets as Risk Diversifiers: A VAR-based Analysis of Portfolio Risk Reduction
Authors: Nadeem Muhammad , Shahzad Arfan , Anwar Yasmin
Published: March 2024

This research aims to empirically investigate the portfolio risk associated with crypto assets. In other words, we want to investigate whether the inclusion of crypto assets in a portfolio can minimize the portfolio risk or not, because it is argued that there is a lower degree of correlation between crypto assets and traditional assets. In order to achieve our research objectives, we employ the Vector Autoregressive Model (VAR) by using five different asset classes. The first two variables are taken from the crypto assets, Bitcoin and Ethereum, and the remaining three variables for Gold, Crude Oil and VIX (Chicago Board Options Exchange's (CBOE) volatility index).  Our research strategy will be based on an analysis for unit root, optimal lag selection, coefficient matrix, checking VAR stability, the Granger causality test, and impulse response function (IRF). Our findings suggest that none of the indicators of traditional assets drive and explain Bitcoin. We also found that only Bitcoin is significantly related to Ethereum. while none of the other variables are statistically useful to explain the variation in the Ethereum. Based on these findings it can be recommended that the inclusion of crypto assets into a portfolio reduces risk because none of the indicators of crypto assets are significantly related to the indicators of traditional assets.

This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy, biofeedback and EMDR on anxiety sensitivity in women with migraine. The current research was of an applied type and a quasi-experimental design of pre-test, post-test and follow-up with a control group, in which three separate experimental groups and one control group were used. The statistical population of the present study includes all women who visited Tehran's Cheshm Andaz Ayandeh clinic in 2022 due to migraine. Sixty people were randomly selected and then equally assigned to groups (15 people in each group). Cognitive behavioral therapy was performed based on the Otis et al.’s (2021) protocol in 12 90-minute sessions; EMDR was performed according to the protocol of Maxfield (2019) in 3 sessions of 90 minutes, and biofeedback was performed according to the protocol of Mullally et al.’s (2009) in 15 sessions of 60 minutes. Also, the present study had a one-month follow-up phase. By controlling the effect of pre-test scores for research variables, the difference of all 4 groups in both post-test and follow-up stages for anxiety sensitivity is statistically significant. The effect of group membership for the anxiety sensitivity variable was 0.61 in the post-test phase and 0.52 in the follow-up phase. It shows that group membership explains 0.61 of the changes in grades in the post-test stage and 0.52 in grades in the follow-up stage. In other words, the treatment methods improved 0.52 of anxiety sensitivity in the follow-up. The results of the pairwise comparison showed in the analysis that all three treatments had a significant effect on reducing anxiety sensitivity. However, these three treatments were similar in terms of their effect on anxiety sensitivity.

This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of schema therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy on chronic fatigue syndrome in patients with multiple sclerosis. The research design was quasi-experimental with a pre-test-post-test design with two experimental groups and, one control group and a one-month follow-up phase. The statistical population of the present study included all the patients with multiple sclerosis in Markazi Province in 2021. This research selected the statistical sample size of 45 people by available sampling. It included 3 groups of 15 people, including treatment groups based on commitment and acceptance, schema therapy and control group. For both experimental groups, the relevant therapeutic intervention was held in 120-minute sessions once a week. In contrast, the people in the control group did not receive the aforementioned therapeutic intervention. Chalder et al.’s (1993) Chronic Fatigue Scale was used to collect data. In order to statistically analyze the data, analysis of covariance test and SPSS software were used. The statistical analysis of the data showed that the implementation of the schema therapy approach on chronic fatigue was insignificant. However, the acceptance and commitment approach had a significant effect on reducing chronic fatigue scores. Also, comparing the effect of two therapeutic approaches showed significant differences between the effectiveness of two therapeutic approaches, schema therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy, on chronic fatigue syndrome. The results indicate that the therapeutic approach based on acceptance and commitment has more effects on reducing chronic fatigue symptoms than schema therapy.

نشأ أدب المهجر بعيداً عن موطنه العربي الأصلي ,و كان له أدباؤه ونقاده ودارسيه , وهذا اللون من الأدب له أثره على ساحة التجديد على الرغم من بقاء بعضهم مقيدا في إطار القديم والرجوع إلى الموروث العربي, بيد أنّ غيرهم حلق بجناحيه في سماء التجديد محاولا التحرر من قيود الموروث بما يتواءم مع عصره وما يجعله قادرا على التعبير بحرية كبيرة,وفي هذا البحث نحاول بيان أهم المظاهر التجديدية متخذين من قصيدة الأسطورة للشاعر أبي ماضي مثالا , فضلا عن بيان أثر الفكر الفلسفي والتأمل الذاتي في شعر الشاعر, هدف الدراسة :تعريف القارئ بطبيعة المدرسة المهجرية وأفكارها ومظاهر التجديد عندها , اعتمدت الدراسة على المنهج التحليلي,وقسمت إلى تمهيد تضمن تأسيس مدرسة المهجر ونبذة عن حياة الشاعر ثم دراسة تحليلية للقصيدة ,من نتائج الدراسة:اعتماد فن السرد وهو ما يناسب الأسطورة , تنوع القوافي في القصيدة وهذا يناسب فن القصّ.

الأسس التي قامت عليها السياسة الإعلامية، التخبط وعدم التخطيط على الرغم من الحديث المستمر في تلك المرحلة عن أهمية التخطيط، إلا أن العمل الإعلامي والثقافي في أغلب أوقات هذه المرحلة ساده التخبط والخضوع للصدفة، وظهر ذلك بوضوح في الصحافة، إذ شهدت تلك الفترة تغيرات كثيرة وسريعة، وشملت أحياناً الهياكل الإدارية والتحريرية في بعض المؤسسات الصحفية، وأدى هذا إلى الارتباك والخلافات بين الصحفيين والسياسيين الذين تولوا مناصب الإشراف على هذه المؤسسات وتزايد دور الدولة في النشاط الإعلامي والثقافي بعد صدور قانون تنظيم الصحافة، فالاتحاد الاشتراكي، وهو التنظيم السياسي القائم وقتها والمسؤول عن الصحافة، كان تنظيماً حكومياً في جوهره شعبياً في مظهره، في الوقت الذي فتحت السلطات فيه لرئيس الدولة الذي هو رئيس الاتحاد الاشتراكي  الباب لتعيين رؤساء مجالس الإدارات ورؤساء التحرير وعزلهم من مناصبهم، مما أدى إلى اندماج الصحافة في سلطة الدولة، وبالتالي لم تستطع في معظم الأحوال أن تقوم بالدور المنوط بها، وهو أن تكون رقيبة على الإدارة الحكومية.

Kaderisasi adalah kegiatan yang umum dilakukan oleh mahasiswa yang baru memasuki universitas. Tujuan dari kaderisasi sendiri adalah untuk menciptakan kader yang unggul serta untuk memperkenalkan lingkungan kampus mulai dari fakultas dan prodi. Tetapi dalam pelaksanaannya kaderisasi sendiri memberikan beban lebih kepada mahasiswa karena mahasiswa dituntut untuk mengikuti rangkaian kaderisasi tersebut di hari libur serta tugas -tugas kaderisasi yang berat. Dengan kegiatan ini mahasiswa jadi lebih menghabiskan waktu dan tenaga dengan padatnya kegiatan perkuliahan yang dilakukan mahasiswa baru ditambah dengan kegiatan kaderisasi ini mahasiswa baru jadi harus bisa mengelola waktunya lebih baik. Padatnya kegiatan mahasiswa baru khususnya mahasiswa baru Fakultas Pendidikan Olahraga dan Kesehatan Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia bisa berdampak terhadap kesehatan mahasiswa itu sendiri baik itu kesehatan fisik ataupun kesehatan mahasiswa itu sendiri. Beratnya kegiatan tersebut membuat mahasiswa baru mendapatkan tekanan yang lebih dan akhirnya mahasiswa merasakan stress dan cemas. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh kaderisasi terhadap kesehatan mental mahasiswa baru Fakultas Pendidikan Olahraga dan Kesehatan Universitas Pendidikan Indonesia. Metode penelitian yang dipakai adalah menanyakan langsung kepada mahasiswa baru di lingkup Fakultas Pendidikan Olahraga dan Kesegatan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kaderisasi yang dilakukan membebani mahasiswa baru dan berpengaruh terhadap kesehatan mental mahasiswa baru.

With the development of large-scale and high-density aquaculture, higher requirements have been put forward for the effectiveness of water oxygenation. In response to the problems of low oxygenation efficiency and high energy consumption of oxygenation devices on the market, a new type of oxygenation device was designed based on the theory of microbubble generation technology, and its oxygenation performance was studied through clear water oxygenation experiments. The experimental results show that under the action of microbubbles, the oxygenation device has the best oxygenation effect when the water flow rate and oxygen flow rate are 2.4m3/h and 0.4L/min, respectively. After adding oxygen to clean water with an initial oxygen concentration of 5.3mg/L through the device, the oxygen concentration increased to 11.2mg/L, reaching a supersaturated state. The oxygen absorption rate was 41.2%, and the oxygenation capacity was 6.68kg/h. Compared to traditional oxygenation machinery, under the premise of achieving the same oxygenation effect, the oxygenation time is shorter, effectively improving the oxygenation efficiency
