Authors: Manipatruni Venkata Ramana , Kumar Nannapaneni Siva , Karim Mohammad Rezaul , Banu Sameena
Published: April 2024

This study was carried out to improve the undergraduates’ writing skills through essay writing via Cambridge English 'Write & Improve' synchronously in the classroom for error analysis and 'Padlet' asynchronously outside the classroom for collaborative writing and peer review. However, previous research proved that Cambridge English 'Write & Improve' and Padlet could enhance students' engagement in mastering writing skills. It also recommended that the students be allowed to self-correct the most recurring errors in their writing tasks through error analysis using 'Write & Improve', and the students should go through peer review by writing collaboratively using Padlet. In this study, the researchers employed a quantitative and cross-sectional study by gathering and evaluating the results of two research groups, the control and experimental groups, both in the pre-test and the post-test. The experimental group pursued the training through digital learning, while the control group used traditional learning. However, after the post-test, the researchers administered the Paired t-test, as the sample size is 30 ( ), as part of the statistical analysis. The results showed that the calculated t (10.66) tabulated t (1.740) proved that the writing assessment training was effective. The Null Hypothesis , which said that the training had no significant effect because there was no significant improvement in the experimental group after the training, was rejected, and the Alternative Hypothesis (H1), which said that the training was effective because there was significant improvement in the experimental group after the training was accepted. Therefore, the findings demonstrated a subtle growth in the experimental group's writing skills in the post-test after three months of training.

Authors: Laurito Natália Sartore , Andrade Marcia Siqueira de
Published: April 2024

O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar o impacto da pandemia da Covid-19 na saúde do trabalhador a partir do alicerce teórico da Psicodinâmica do Trabalho (Dejours, 1992, 1994, 1999). Para tanto, realizou-se a revisão de literatura de artigos acadêmicos, publicados de 2020 a 2022, que abordassem as alterações ocorridas na organização de trabalho decorrentes da pandemia. Para a seleção de trabalhos, utilizou-se o banco de dados Google Acadêmico e, partindo dos procedimentos de Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin (2011) 19 estudos foram eleitos e, posteriormente, submetidos ao software IRaMuTeQ, sendo a discussão pautada a partir da Classificação Hierárquica Descendente. Os resultados apontaram para dois fatos desencadeadores de mudanças nas dinâmicas de trabalho gerando sofrimento laboral. O primeiro foi a implementação do teletrabalho sem capacitação, suporte ou garantia de tempo de descanso para os trabalhadores, e o segundo foi a sobrecarga de trabalho decorrente tanto do eventual aumento de demanda quanto da redução de mão de obra. Conclui-se pela necessidade de novas pesquisas sobre o tema.

Os profissionais de saúde que atuam em cuidados intensivos foram expostos a situações estressantes durante a pandemia de Covid-19, considerando o aumento significativo da demanda por este nível de cuidado. Tendo em vista este cenário, a presente pesquisa teve como objetivo identificar a presença de Fadiga por Compaixão e Satisfação por Compaixão em equipe multidisciplinar de Unidade de Terapia Intensiva para Covid-19, de um hospital localizado no Sul do Brasil. Foi utilizado método misto qualitativo e quantitativo, com questionário sociolaboral, Escala Professional Quality of Life-V (ProQOL-V), e entrevista semiestruturada. Participaram da parte quantitativa 58 profissionais de saúde e da parte qualitativa três profissionais. Os resultados apontam a Satisfação por Compaixão e o Burnout médio, e o Estresse Traumático Secundário baixo. O excessivo número de mortes, as novas formas de lidar com esta e o medo de se contaminar e/ou morrer foram aspectos centrais no sofrimento apresentado pelos profissionais. Compreende-se que foram fatores fundamentais à satisfação por compaixão o bom relacionamento da equipe e o reconhecimento dos pacientes e familiares. Sugere-se novo estudo longitudinal objetivando investigar como estes indicadores se comportam na exposição dos profissionais a longo prazo.
Acute Patellar Tendon Ruptures: An Update on Management
Authors: Brinkman Joseph C. , Reeson Emily , Chhabra Anikar
Published: April 2024

Patellar tendon ruptures can be debilitating injuries. When incomplete, partial tears can be managed nonsurgically with immobilization and progressive rehabilitation. Although complete ruptures remain a relatively uncommon injury, they portend a high level of morbidity. Ruptures typically result from an acute mechanical overload to the extensor mechanism, such as with forced quadriceps contraction and knee flexion. However, chronically degenerated tendons are also predisposed to failure from low-energy injuries. Diagnosis can often be made clinically with recognition of a palpable defect to the tendon, localized patellar tendon tenderness, and inability to actively extend the knee. Diagnosis and surgical planning can be established with radiograph, ultrasonography, or magnetic resonance imaging. Surgical repair is the mainstay of treatment, and there have been many recent advances in repair technique, optimal reconstruction strategies, and supplemental fixation. Time to surgery for complete tears remains the most important prognosticator for success. Direct primary repair can be completed with transosseous tunnels, suture anchor repair, or end-to-end repair. Tendon reconstruction can be achieved with or without mechanical or biologic augments. Rehabilitation programs vary in specifics, but return to sport can be expected by 6 months postoperatively.

Internet addiction among teachers: A systematic review
Authors: He Shuangqi , Chen I-Hua
Published: April 2024

The proliferation of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) within educational spheres has undeniably enriched pedagogical practices through the integration of digital tools. Despite these advancements, the escalating use of ICT devices harbors the potential for internet addiction among educators. This systematic review scrutinizes the prevalence, symptomatology, and predictive indicators of internet addiction in the teaching profession, in addition to examining its association with physical and psychological well-being. Employing a methodical approach aligned with the PRISMA guidelines, an analysis of 15 rigorously selected scholarly articles, sourced from the Web of Science and Google Scholar, was conducted. The findings reveal a prevalence rate of internet addiction among educators ranging from 5.2% to 35%, pinpointing specific behaviors that may predispose individuals to higher addiction risks. Given the paucity of research pertaining to internet addiction among teachers, the corpus of articles ultimately incorporated into this study was constrained. However, the implications of these findings are multifaceted, highlighting the critical need for targeted interventions to ameliorate the detrimental effects of internet addiction on educators, thereby fostering a more conducive teaching and learning environment.
Phonological variation and its social implications in multilingual communities
Authors: Shen Yu
Published: April 2024

Phonological variation (PV) in multilingual communities is being researched to find out how sociolinguistic factors (SF) impact language use and perception. Earlier studies on urban linguistic diversity often failed to consider the multifaceted relationship between age, gender, education, and socioeconomic status (SES) on PV. Statistics were compiled and analyzed utilizing multiple techniques on 3326 distinct Toronto people. The research conducted discovered that less elderly and more highly educated individuals tend to be more cognizant of linguistic diversity, impacting the PV experience. SES has an essential impact on the variances in language practice and code-switching between genders. The research topic highlights multilingual communication relationships and shows the significance of having to consider numerous SFs. Innovative ideas for linguistic and social science investigations from the current investigation enhance knowledge about PV’s impact on society.

Published: April 2024

Academic research competencies play the most essential role in graduation for graduate students, but there is still a lack of in-depth research on this matter. Since talent development suggestions are provided based on the survey results of capability gaps, this study aimed to develop a scale to examine the research competency disparity between graduation requirements and graduate students’ current levels of competency in the context of quantitative research in the education, arts and humanities, and business domains. It is named the “Quantitative Academic Competence Scale”. To explore the needs of graduate students regarding their academic research competence, we constructed a draft questionnaire with nine categories of competence; academic experts validated the scale. It was then administered to graduate students to explore their perceived disparities. A total of 457 participants assisted in filling out the questionnaire, from which 86 invalid samples were deleted, leaving 371 valid participants, giving an effective recovery rate of 81.2%. After collection and analysis, the analysis results found that the three graduate students’ academic research competences with the greatest disparity were English writing competence, research design and implementation competence, and data processing and analyzing competence. According to the results, graduate students should take more courses on English writing competence, research design and implementation competence, and data processing and analyzing competence to enhance their competencies. generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) suggests that research ability factors can be comprehensively considered. Based on the graduate students’ ability gaps, curriculum settings and training plans can be adjusted and more targeted (personalized) at teaching and guidance to help graduate students improve their academic performance and reduce weaknesses in their research capabilities.
Housing finance by banks and housing finance companies in India: A review
Authors: P K MANOJ
Published: April 2024

Housing is a major pre-requisite of human life. So, housing development and housing finance are the governmental priorities worldwide, and Government of India (GOI) is no exception. In India ‘Affordable Housing for All’ has been a national goal since 2017. Though this national goal was supposed to be attained by 2022, it could not be attained, partly because of the crisis due to the global pandemic, Covid-19. The revised target of the GOI is 2025. This paper looks into the major players in the housing finance market viz. Commercial Banks (CBs) and HFCs and their role in attaining the national housing goal. Better presence of specialized agencies that have only minor role now, like Affordable Housing Finance Companies (AHFCs), Small Finance Banks (SFBs), and Apex Co-operative Housing Federations (ACHFs) also discussed.

Published: April 2024

Staff training and development are based on the premise that employees’ skills need improvement for organizations to grow. Hence, both public and private universities in Nigeria have, over time, engaged in training their staff in various departments to enhance productivity and job performance. Therefore, this study investigates the impact of staff training programs on the job performance of staff at Delta State University and Edwin Clark University. The study aims to determine the impact of various training programs on the job performance of university staff, examine the effects of on-the-job training, job rotations, seminars, conferences, etc., on their job performance, ascertain the impact of both universities’ management support for enhancing staff training, find out the impact of staff attitudes towards attendance and participation in conferences, and identify the impact of organizational issues that constrain staff training and development in universities. Eight research questions were formulated to guide the study. The study adopted a descriptive survey design, with a target population of 50 staff, including all management staff, heads of departments, and lecturers in both universities, using questionnaires. The samples were selected using the stratified random sampling technique, and data were collected through a structured questionnaire. Descriptive statistics such as frequencies, percentages, and the mean were used to analyze and present the data. The findings revealed that participation in on-the-job training, job rotations, seminars, and conferences had several positive effects on the job performance of staff in both universities. These effects include gaining new knowledge and skills that enable them to perform their tasks better, leading to job satisfaction and motivation. However, it was found that the universities’ management did not adequately support staff training.

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, aromantic, and other sexual and/or gender minority (LGBTQIA+) communities are underrepresented in health research and subject to documented health disparities. In addition, LGBTQIA+ communities have experienced mistreatment, discrimination, and stigma in health care and health research settings. Effectively engaging LGBTQIA+ communities and individuals in health research is critical to developing representative data sets, improving health care provision and policy, and reducing disparities. However, little is known about what engagement approaches work well with LGBTQIA+ people. This paper describes the development of PRIDEnet (pridenet.org), a national network dedicated to catalyzing LGBTQIA+ community involvement in health research and built upon well-established community-engaged research (CEnR) principles. PRIDEnet’s relationship building and digital communications activities engage thousands of LGBTQIA+-identified people across the country and offer multiple low-threshold ways to participate in specific studies and shape research. These activities comprise a CEnR infrastructure that engages LGBTQIA+ people on behalf of other projects, primarily The PRIDE Study (pridestudy.org) and the National Institutes of Health’s All of Us Research Program (joinallofus.org/lgbtqia). Our impact, results, and lessons learned apply to those engaging communities underserved in biomedical research and include: the importance of building adaptable infrastructure that sustains transformational relationships long-term; implementing high-touch activities to establish trust and broad-reach activities to build large data sets; nurturing a team of diverse professionals with lived experiences that reflect those of the communities to be engaged; and maintaining CEnR mechanisms that exceed advice-giving and result in substantive research contributions from beginning to end.

DAS VIOLÊNCIAS CONTRA MULHERES NEGRAS: UM RECORTE URGENTE PARA SE PENSAR O FEMINISMO
Authors: Viana Flavia Nayara Mones , Ferreira Maria da Luz Alves
Published: April 2024

A incompatibilidade entre mulheres negras e brancas no movimento feminista, marcaram um grande momento dentro do movimento. Essas mulheres viviam uma mesma época histórica, mas não experenciavam das mesmas opressões. Isso significa que a dominação das mulheres, se passava dentro de um contexto muito mais amplo, do que somente a desigualdade de gênero, abarcando também questões como: raça e classe. Na sua criação, as pautas feministas não consideravam a situação de vida de mulheres negras e pobres e enfocavam quase sempre na luta por direitos que atingiriam as mulheres brancas de classe média. Essas mulheres reivindicavam direitos políticos e espaços no mercado de trabalho para conquistarem sua autonomia financeira, ao mesmo tempo que as mulheres negras que sempre trabalharam, ocupavam a base da pirâmide econômica, e sendo assim, obviamente, esses privilégios requeridos pelas feministas brancas não as atingiriam. A temática da violência contra mulheres negras, por exemplo, é uma das pautas essenciais para se pensar nas diferenças existentes entre as vivências das mulheres como um todo. Acontece que as mulheres negras, desde o início da história mundial e mesmo após a abolição da escravatura, foram silenciadas e vinculadas a escravidão, ao sexo e a pobreza, o que potencializa ainda mais a opressão. A mulher negra, pobre, da periferia é a que mais perece os efeitos da culpabilidade branca. Nesse interim, um espaço para discutir a interseccionalidade entre classe e raça foi criado. Ficou claro a partir daí que o movimento feminista necessitava ser muito mais do que a busca por igualdade no mercado de trabalho. Era necessário que houvesse uma reestruturação de toda a sociedade na busca de uma nação fundamentalmente antissexista. Para tanto, o movimento feminista deveria ser consolidado em uma base de consciência crítica que discutisse a interseccionalidade de gênero, raça e classe, firmado em uma sororidade verdadeira, além da necessidade de reconhecimento e entendimento de como o capitalismo, havia colaborado para manutenção do sistema sexista e opressor das minorias. A proposta a partir daí seria pensar em uma teoria feminista que pudesse condenar a dominação racista, classista e sexista na busca pela verdadeira libertação de mulheres brancas e negras da dominação patriarcal.

O camarão-da-Amazônia (Macrobrachium amazonicum) é um recurso pesqueiro explorado comercialmente em todo o estado do Pará, sendo vendido em feiras, mercados, supermercados e peixarias. Este produto gera trabalho e renda para um significativo contingente de pessoas, como pescadores, intermediários, funcionários de estabelecimentos processadores e comerciantes. O objetivo deste estudo foi analisar a comercialização de camarão-da-Amazônia no estado do Pará, visando identificar os produtos ofertados por mesorregião e analisar a percepção dos varejistas em termos de oportunidades para estimular o consumo. Entre fevereiro e agosto de 2019, foram realizadas observações de campo em 24 locais de comercialização e 56 entrevistas com varejistas dos municípios de Altamira, Belém, Breves, Cametá, Santarém e Tucuruí. Posteriormente, os produtos tiveram seu processo de obtenção avaliados quanto ao rendimento, enquanto os varejistas tiveram suas opiniões apresentadas através de estatística descritiva. A mesorregião Metropolitana de Belém foi a única com oferta de camarão descascado congelado, bem como de produtos com certificação do Serviço de Inspeção Estadual (SIE). As opiniões dos varejistas evidenciaram a diferença entre os períodos de safra nas mesorregiões, além da necessidade de aperfeiçoamento da classificação do produto por tamanho. Concluiu-se que a forma mais viável de estimular o consumo do camarão-da-Amazônia seria a regularidade na oferta de produtos da categoria grande, o que não pode ser proporcionado pela pesca e se apresenta como uma oportunidade para a aquicultura.

Published: April 2024

Keberagaman bukan hal yang perlu dijadikan alasan untuk menimbulkan perpecahan. Justru dalam keberagaman timbul nilai-nilai positif  yang dikembangkan dalam kehidupan bermasyarakat. Berdasarkan hasil pengamatan peneliti di lapangan sebuah gereja, kesatuan diantara anggota jemaat tidak terjalin dengan baik. Gereja tersebut didominasi oleh etnis tertentu. Kondisi ini memunculkan masalah dalam kehidupan rohani di kalangan remaja, menghadapi jam ibadah, suasana gereja yang menimbulkan kejenuhan, diantara mereka tidak akur, sehingga menimbukan sikap pasif diantara untuk mengajak orang lain untuk beribadah di gereja.

Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian Kualitatif dan peneliti memberi judul penelitian ini, Topik Konsep Kesatuan Tubuh Kristus Berdasarkan Efesus 4:1-6 Terhadap Peningkatan Jumlah Remaja Yang Datang Beribadah berpengaruh positif. Konsep Kesatuan Tubuh Kristus adalah cara yang tepat dan efektif di dalam membimbing dan membina remaja kearah yang lebih baik sehingga remaja dapat bertumbuh kepada kedewasaan iman melalui keterlibatan anak-anak remaja dalam persekutuan ibadah di gereja berdasarkan Efesus 4:2. Pertama, remaja sudah memiliki pengetahuan dasar dari tentang rendah hati, lemah lembut dan sabar serta belajar menerapkannya dalam kehidupannya. Kedua, remaja sudah memahami tentang apa yang dipahami sebagai bentuk dari kesatuan, yaitu: satu tubuh, satu Roh, satu pengharapan, satu Tuhan, satu iman, satu baptisan, satu Allah dan satu Bapa. Ketiga, kehadiran remaja dalam mengikuti ibadah menunjukan peningkatan pada kuantitas dan mulai ada yang terlibat dalam kegatan pelayanan kerohanian. Sifat rendah hati seorang dengan yang lain, tidak mementingkan diri sendiri melainkan saling mengutamakan satu dengan yang lain sebagai bagian dari anggota tubuh Kristus.

Сущность музыки можно частично выяснить через ее различные функции, которые со временем также подвержены изменениям. Связь музыкального искусства с жизнью общества осуществляется в трех взаимосвязанных аспектах. Во-первых, оно отражает реальную действительность, во-вторых, дает ей художественную оценку и, в-третьих, осуществляет творческую функцию, преобразуя социальную жизнь человека. Музыка, как и любой другой вид искусства, одухотворяет человеческую жизнь, активизирует в ней эстетическое начало. Она не только обогащает повседневное существование человека, но возвышает его над бытом, способствуя созданию высшего слоя духовной жизни человека и общества. Решающим моментом в понимании музыки, ее сути является выявление ее специфики, определяемой прежде всего теми функциями, которые она выполняет в жизни общества. Музыкальная культура, как и культура вообще, выполняет важную социально-психологическую роль. Она направлена как на общество в целом, так и на отдельного человека, являясь инструментом формирования человека.

Предметом исследования являются -лексико-семантические группы, сгруппированные по семантическому соотношению компонентов именной плеоназмы. Цель исследования состоит в том, чтобы показать систематическую организацию плеоназмов в языке на основе семантической классификации плеоназмов кыргызского языка в лексические и семантические группы. В исследовании использован метод анализа фактического материала. Результаты исследования позволяют предположить, что в качестве выводов были выявлены двадцать четыре лексико-семантических групп именных плеоназмов. Основное смысловое поле в плеоназмах составляют такие темы, как «человек», «сфера предметов и предметов в жизни», «явления природы», «абстрактные явления» и подчеркивает выводы, и основы взятые из тематических и аргументических исследований. Результаты исследования могут быть использованы в преподавании семиотики и при анализе языка художественной литературы.

Предметом исследования является табуированная лексика в кыргызском языке. Цель исследования - раскрыть некоторые аспекты возникновения табуированной лексики в кыргызском языке и обозначить их национально-культурный фон. Методом сравнительного анализа были выявлены социально-культурные источники возникновения в кыргызском языке запрещающей лексики. В результате исследования были обозначены некоторые особенности образования «табу-тергөө» в определенных речевых ситуациях, определены общественно-культурные факторы, создающие соответствующие условия для их существования в языке. Выявлено, что сохранение и использование в кыргызском языке табуированной лексики впрямую связано с национально-культурными традициями, историей народа и семейными отношениями. Национальная специфика «табуу-тергөө»-это проявление уважительного отношения при различного рода обращениях, именованиях. Полученные практические результаты данной работы могут быть использованы в чтении курсов по кыргызской и русской лексикологии, и фразеологии, также при изучении сравнительного языкознания, сопоставительной типологии.
Pediatric testicular torsion management practices

Published: April 2024

Introduction: Pediatric testicular torsion (TT) is a urologic emergency that may result in testicular loss if left untreated. Testicular salvage is dependent on prompt intervention, and thus delays in diagnosis and management may threaten testicular viability. Knowledge of real-world Canadian practice patterns for pediatric TT will allow optimization of practices based on resource availability and geographic limitations to improve care.
Methods: An electronic survey on pediatric TT management was distributed to Canadian urologists. Descriptive statistics were performed on respondent demographic factors, hospital policies and barriers to care, surgical approaches, and transfer practices. Respondent practice patterns were analyzed based on geographic location and training.
Results: Thirty-four urologists responded, with the majority of respondents operating a community practice. Ultrasonography (US) was frequently used to support TT diagnosis. Despite this, poor US access was often cited as a barrier to care, with particular impact on rural urologists. Neonatal patients and <10 years old were commonly transferred to a pediatric hospital for definitive management due to surgeon discomfort and hospital policies. Reported transport methods commonly included use of the patient’s own vehicle or ambulance based on availability and timing.
Conclusions: Neonatal patients and patients under 10 years old are most commonly reported to be transferred to pediatric hospitals for TT management. Patients located in rural locations and at centers with limited US access may be at risk for delayed diagnosis and treatment. Pathways for prompt management of suspected TT may better serve these younger pediatric patients.

Introduction: Urologists observed reduced cancer consultations and surgeries during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, raising concern about treatment delays. Testicular cancer serves as a particularly sensitive marker of this phenomenon, as the clinical stage of testicular cancer at presentation is predictive of cancer-specific survival. We aimed to investigate whether COVID-related restrictions to primary care access resulted in increased incidence of metastatic germ cell testis cancer.
Methods: A retrospective chart review was conducted on all cases of testicular cancer managed surgically at our center from March 1, 2018, to February 28, 2023. Patients were categorized into temporal cohorts, representing before, during, and following the implementation of COVID-19 public health restrictions in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador.
Results: Forty-one cases of testicular germ cell tumors were identified during the study period. The mean age at diagnosis was 40.8 years (standard deviation ±13.7). Demographics did not vary across the cohorts. Clinical stage 3 disease remained stable before and during the pandemic at 10.5% and 9.1% of cases, respectively. In the post-pandemic period, there was an increase to 27.3% (p=0.617). Surgical wait times remained stable across the pandemic (p=0.151).
Conclusions: There was a 16.8% rise in clinical stage III disease from the pre-pandemic to post-pandemic period. Our study failed to identify a statistically significant increase in metastatic testis cancer incidence upon lifting of pandemic restrictions. Further study is necessary to confirm suspicions that pandemic restrictions contributed to increased incidence of metastatic testis cancer.
NEW URBANISM IN CONTEXT TO MOBILITY

Published: April 2024

In recent years, the concept of New Urbanism has gained significant attention as a means of addressing the challenges of urban development and mobility. There has been a growing interest in understanding how new urbanism principles impact mobility patterns and behaviours. The New Urbanism, initially conceived as an anti – sprawl reform movement, New Urbanism is an urban planning and design approach that emphasizes walkability, mixed land uses, and connectivity. In new urbanism, there is a strong emphasis on promoting alternative modes of transportation to reduce car dependency and create more sustainable and liveable communities. These abstract aims to explore the relationship between new urbanism and mobility, focusing on the various factors that influence transportation. This paper aims to explore the key principles of New Urbanism that enhance mobility and examine the ways in which it promotes the use of alternative modes of transportation. Through this research, we hope to provide insights into the potential benefits and challenges of New Urbanism as a means of improving mobility in urban areas. Some common modes of transportation in new urbanist developments include walking, cycling, and public transit by examining the role of street design, infrastructure, and transportation demand management strategies. This not only helps to reduce traffic congestion and air pollution but also promotes a healthier and more active lifestyle. The goal is to encourage alternative transportation options. This research seeks to provide insights into creating more sustainable and accessible urban environments. This research will contribute to the ongoing dialogue on how to design cities that prioritize mobility, promote alternative transportation options, and reduce car dependency. Key Words: New urbanism, Sustainable mobility, Transit-oriented development (TOD), Walkable communities, Active transportation, public space, public transit.
