Published: October 2023

Move of information in many foundations of higher learning is done through addressing where understudies are relied upon to go to classes and a teacher directs notes and offer the substance of the illustration with the understudies. Extra time, class non-participation has been continuous in many foundations and has turned into a worry since a negative relationship exists among participation and the general presentation. Non-participation makes an exhausting talk climate, influences class accomplishment just as workforce spirit as learning decreases and scholastic principles are compromised. Current strategies used to oversee class participation which are generally utilization of sign sheets have been mishandled by understudies getting paperwork done for their partners. Further, they are known to be lost and addressed later and in this manner not introducing the real status. Information examinations utilizing the current strategy is bulky because of their manual nature and connecting with schedule and homeroom is additionally a major issue. This review proposes utilization of finger impression biometric recognizable proof for class participation. The understudies undertaking a given course are enrolled first then their fingerprints are caught and saved in a data set. This is subsequently used to distinguish understudies during class participation for a given example. The created framework permits just enrolled understudies and it additionally serves to shows an understudy rate participation for an example hence helps simpler oversee and screen the participation strategy

Published: October 2023

Improving the performance of super native chickens must be balanced by improving the ration. The ingredients used do not need to be “expensive” but are of good quality and readily available throughout the year. One of the feed ingredients that is widely available and is a waste is banana peel. Banana peels contain 3.63% nutrients, 2.52% crude fat, 18.71% crude fiber, 7.18% calcium, and 2.06% phosphorus. In addition to high crude fiber, banana peels also contain antinutrients in the form of tannins, hence the need for fermentation. To see the quality of the ration, it is necessary to test the digestibility. This research was carried out from March to July 2023. The design used in this study was a completely randomized design (CRD) with 5 (five) treatments and 3 (three) replicates. The treatments were as follows: R0 (ration without the addition of fermented banana peel flour/TKPF), R1 = (2.5% TKPF), R2 = 5% TKPF, R3 = 7.5% TKPF, R4 = 10% TKPF. Variables observed were N retention, protein digestibility, crude fiber digestibility, and organic matter digestibility. The results showed that the provision of fermented banana flour in the ration of native chickens significantly (P <0.01) influenced the digestibility of crude protein, crude fiber digestibility, digestibility of organic matter, and N retention of native chicken rations. The best results were obtained in the R2 treatment (5% Fermented Banana peel flour), where the crude protein digestibility gave results of 76.11%, crude fiber digestibility of 45.12%, organic matter digestibility of 70.09%, and N retention of 75.82%

The Influence of European Identity on Integration Efforts
Authors: Malaj Doris
Published: October 2023

The EU's recurrent crises underline its complex and debated nature. Truly grasping its intricacies is key to understanding the tie between European identity and integration. Central to the discourse are questions on whether a shared European identity influences member selection or if the emphasis is on upholding democratic values. Academic discussions have often overlooked a holistic examination of integration processes, treating EU expansions as standalone events without delving deep into the relationship between integration and European identity. This paper posits that the absence of a unified European identity, and subsequently, citizens' disassociation from Europe and its political structures, steers the course of integration, potentially causing stagnation or progression. It seeks to unravel: the nature of EU expansion, the current meaning of European identity versus EU identity, and the influence of identity (or its absence) on integration. Concludingly, it suggests that the EU identity's role in integration is a balance between constructivism and rationalism. Support for the EU seems rooted in citizens' perceived overarching benefits, encompassing peace, democracy, human rights, and the rule of law.

Study data consist of diagnostic results of reverse transcriptase real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction assays (RT-PCR) on nine hundred and eighty-nine nasal swab samples from suspected COVID-19 cases, collected from public and private health facilities across Local government areas of the State and analysed by the Molecular Laboratory of the Federal Medical Centre Katsina, recording a total of 137 positive cases. Our investigation revealed that, over the study period, COVID-19 transmission reaches its peak on 17th October 2021 (Epidemic Week 41), with a mean Reproduction number (Rt) of 3.22 and a standard deviation of 0.5976 (95% CI: 2.6193 - 3.8145), culminating in 19 new infections on Wednesday the 27th (Epidemic Week 43). The combined age groups 21-30 and 31-40 constituted the most affected cases with 29 (21.17%) and 19 (13.87%) positive cases, respectively. This was closely followed by age group 51-60 with 19 (13.87%) positive cases. On gender basis, 70 (51%) females tested positive compared to 67 (49%) males. We therefore conclude that for the third wave of COVID-19 pandemic in Katsina State, disease transmission reaches its peak in Epidemic Week 41 in October, then rapidly diminishes to Rt values of less than one, indicating that no new infections were expected by the end of November, with female gender and age groups in the range 21 to 40 years being most infected. We recommend that mitigation strategies that take into consideration features inherent in female gender and more pronounced in young (21 to 40 years) and middle-aged (51-60 years) adults should be adopted in case of future waves.

The retailer's ideal replenishment strategy for non-instantaneous decaying goods with two-phase demand rates, two storage facilities, and shortages under a permissible payment delay has been determined in this study. While the constant demand rate is considered once deterioration has begun, the demand rate up to that point is believed to be a time-dependent quadratic function. Backlogs and shortages are also taken into consideration. Whether or not the backlog will be accepted depends on how long it will be until the next replenishment. As a result, the backlogging rate fluctuates and depends on how long it takes for the next refill. The models identify the ideal cycle length, order amount, and period at which the inventory level in the owned warehouse reaches zero in order to reduce the overall variable cost per unit of time. For the solutions to exist and be unique, both the necessary and sufficient requirements must be met. The best trade credit period is identified for each model using numerical examples, and the best model among the created models is identified using the best trade credit periods. Sensitivity analysis can offer some managerial insights

Given the characteristics of radon, people may unwittingly be exposed to radon through water ingestion. Research on radon concentration has increased over the years due to its negative impact on the body being the major causes of lung cancer. This study reviewed twenty (20) journal publications on radon concentration in water sources (such as well, boreholes, stream and taps) in Nigeria from year the 2016 to 2023. The type of sample, sample location, devices used, the range and mean values of radon concentration (RnC) and annual effective dose (AED) were considered. From the reviewed journals, the average values of RnC ranged from 1.9 Bq/L to 88.0 Bq L-1. When compared with WHO and US EPA recommended limits of 100 Bq L-1 and 11.1 Bq L-1 respectively, all reviewed journals recorded average values of RnC below 100 Bq L-1 and 75 % of the reviewed journals recorded average values of RnC above US EPA recommended limit of 11.1 Bq L-1. The mean AED reported is within the range of 0.02 mSv yr-1 and 92 mSv yr-1 with 30 % above the recommended limit of 0.1mSv yr-1. This result shows that the majority of the radon concentration in water sources in Nigeria reported may not pose any immediate health risk. However, there is a need for continuous monitoring and protective measures to be taken.

Lemna minor L. (Arales: Lemnaceae) is a small, delicate, free-floating aquatic plant that grows mostly in a nutrient-enriched environment. It has wide applications in agriculture and biosciences. This study evaluated the physicochemical factors affecting the distribution, biomass, and proximate composition of L. minor in waterways within Maiduguri metropolis, northeastern Nigeria. Duckweeds were sampled with a quadrat (25 × 25 cm) along imaginary transect lines from different areas of the metropolis between the early hours of 9:00 and11:00 a.m. in December 2021. Some physicochemical parameters of the sites were measured. Proximate composition and biomass were determined. Principal component analysis (PCA) indicated that PC1, PC2, and PC3 explained 79.2% of the variation. The strongest positive correlations were between Mg and alkalinity, while K, Mg, alkalinity and TSS were negatively correlated. Proximate composition indicated 11.4-18.21% crude protein and 45.92-48.47% carbohydrate in the samples. Bray-Curti’s index indicated that duckweeds in the Custom area and Bolori were the most similar (0.99). Samples collected from the Unimaid area recorded the highest wet biomass (5.0 ± 0.2 g/m2), while a sample from Umarari was the lowest (2.24 ± 0.1 g/m2). The physicochemical parameters of the site provided suitable factors for laboratory culture and large-scale production. The findings provide baseline data on the ecology and potential of duckweed as a cost-effective source of crude protein (CP) and other essential nutrients for aquaculture and animal feed, as well as a model plant for aquatic ecology, the environment and biotechnological research. Further studies to explore the applications of L. minor in different fields were recommended.

Brucellosis; Fever, also known as corrugated fever, is a zoonotic disease charactarized by chills and muscle aches. It can be seen endemic in many countries including our country. Consumption of unpasteurized dairy products is the most common mode of transmission. Diagnosis is made by culture of the organism and increase in antibody titer in serum samples. Complications affecting many systems, mostly osteoarticular, are seen in the disease. In our case, a case of sacroileitis developed as a result of irregular treatment in a patient who was engaged in animal husbandry and was diagnosed with brucellosis is presented. In our case, it was started that osteoarticular involvement could develop under treatment and the importance of regular treatment at correct doses was emphasized.

Object: Irritable bowel disease (IBS) is common in Turkey, as in the World, but is often mis-diagnosed. In this study, the diagnosis, follow up and wellbeing of the patients with irritable bowel disease and the effects of their complaints on their quality of life, has been aimed.

Methods: 202 patients were joined prospectively (n=146, %72,3). Sociodemographic status, Rome III Criteria and WHOQOL quality of life index were recorded by face-to-face questionnaire. Analysis were applied using q-square, t-test, Oneway Annova tests and descriptive statistical methods in SPSS20,0programme.

Results: Most of the participants were women. The only statistically significant association between sociodemographic characteristics was between gender and types of irritable bowel disease. The only statistically significant relationship between sociodemographic characteristics was between gender and types of IBS. Accordingly, constipation (IBS-C) was more common in women and diarrhea(IBS-D) was more common in men(p=0.018). Scores in the physical and environmental quality of life domains of the WHOQOL index and total scores were higher in men (p=0.04, p=0.002, p=0.007). There was a significant relationship in the physical domain scores of housewives and blue-collar workers compared to other occupational groups (p
