Introduction: Chondrosarcomas (CS) are uncommon malignant tumors that form cartilage, ranking third among primary malignant bone tumors. Although they are rare, with an incidence rate of 2%-12%, they can occur in the spine, with the lumbar region being even less common. These tumors are resistant to chemotherapy and radiotherapy, making surgical excision the treatment of choice. The extent of surgical resection is vital for the patient’s prognosis and the risk of recurrence. A unique case of lumbar CS in a young female patient is reported. Case Report: A 23-year-old female experienced progressive lower back pain and radiculopathy in both lower limbs. Laboratory tests and radiological imaging revealed an osteolytic lesion in the L5 vertebral body. Despite a biopsy that did not conclusively diagnose the lesion, a two-stage en-bloc resection was carried out. The procedure confirmed the diagnosis of grade I conventional chondrosarcoma. The patient had a successful recovery and remainedrecurrence-free after three years. Discussion: CS typically occurs in males between their 40s and 70s and can develop in various bones, with different classifications based on origin and histopathological features. Spinal CS is rare, and symptoms can be non-specific but may progress to include pain and neurological deficits. Diagnosis is primarily based on imaging, with biopsy used in some cases. Surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment due to the tumor’s resistance to other treatments. Achieving negative surgical margins is imperative but challenging, necessitating a multidisciplinary approach for optimal outcomes. Conclusion: The presented case underlines the rarity of CS in the lumbar region and the challenges in diagnosing and surgically managing such cases. Aggressive surgical resection is key to treatment, requiring careful preoperativve planning and intraoperative precision. The successful long-term disease control in our patient emphasizes the importance of complete tumor resection.

Published: May 2024

This study investigated the effectiveness of a psychoanalytic theory-based training program in enhancing psychological adjustment among students with motor disabilities at Al-Balqa Applied University. A quasi-experimental design was employed, with 33 participants (male and female) from various faculties. A newly developed, 25-item psychological adjustment scale assessed five key dimensions. The program's impact was evaluated through pre- and post-application assessments in both the experimental and control groups. The results revealed statistically significant improvements in psychological adjustment within the experimental group (pre- vs. post-application). Additionally, significant differences were found between the control and experimental groups in the post-application assessment, with the latter demonstrating higher levels of psychological adjustment. These findings suggest that the training program based on psychoanalytic theory may be beneficial for promoting psychological well-being among students with motor disabilities.
Religious Knowledge: A New Dimensional Approach for Studying Religiosity’s Social Impact in Muslim Societies
Authors: TRIBAK Houssam Eddine
Published: May 2024

Researchers frequently postulate a strong relationship between religiosity and social peace and stability. If one examines the construct of religion in sociological literature (e.g., doctrine, rituals, etc.), it appears that it is so diverse and multifaceted that a single measure of religiosity is inadequate. While quantification of religiosity is possible, social studies rely exclusively on single-item markers of religiousness (e.g., frequency of church attendance). Moreover, two of the dimensions of Glock's (1962) model - religious knowledge and the consequential dimension - have not been examined at all (Filsinger & Wilson, 1986). This paper’s objective is to draw attention to the “religious knowledge” dimension as an influential social factor within society by attempting to construct a peculiar definition to the sociology of Muslim societies. Besides, this paper aims at putting emphasis on the importance and the validity of “religious knowledge” scales and their ability to provide an overview about Muslim individuals’ religiosity.

Published: May 2024

The article provides information about damage to the peripheral nervous system during COVID-19 infection and clarifies the possible mechanisms of development. Also in modern medical literature, a large amount of data on neurological pathologies associated with COVID-19 - damage to the central and peripheral nervous system - has been reviewed and epidemiological indicators of these injuries have been analyzed. The role of immune disorders in the occurrence and further development of damage to the peripheral nervous system was assessed. Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS), one of the rare neurological pathologies that develops due to COVID-19, is described. Literary data were analyzed to determine the clinical course of GBS and elucidate its probable autoimmune pathogenesis. A clinical observation of the development of GBS against the background of typical manifestations of COVID-19 in a 56-year-old male patient is presented. The interval from the first manifestations of COVID-19 to the manifestation of GBS was 13 days. The GBS that developed was severe, required invasive ventilation, and developed acute kidney injury. It is suggested that the information presented about the pathogenetic mechanism, clinical manifestations, diagnosis and treatment of GBS in patients may stimulate research towards bringing greater clarity to these issues.
VASCULAR PARKINSONISM. DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS
Authors: Shiraliyeva R.K. , Asadova U.A.
Published: May 2024

Parkinsonism can be caused by many pathologies, including cerebrovascular diseases. Vascular parkinsonism, which develops as a consequence of the latter, may be caused by small vessel disease of the white matter, leading to the gradual development of bilateral symptoms in the lower extremities. Compared with patients with Parkinson's disease, people with vascular parkinsonism have earlier onset of gait disturbances, higher rates of urinary incontinence and cognitive impairment, and a poorer response to treatment and prognosis. Vascular parkinsonism, with its unclear pathophysiology, varied clinical presentation and overlap with other diseases, remains a poorly understood and somewhat controversial diagnosis. The clinical case described below confirms the above.
PREVALENCE, MANAGEMENT, AND OUTCOME OF RESISTANT HYPERTENSION IN PEOPLE WITH CKD : A COMPREHENSIVE SYSTEMATIC REVIEW
Authors: Sijabat Landong , Novettiandari Guinanti
Published: May 2024

Background: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are susceptible to resistant hypertension, which is a serious problem. Patients should take into account reversible causes as the prevalence of this ailment is difficult to ascertain. Its development is influenced by the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and the sympathetic nervous system. The efficacy of current hypertension treatments, such as medication and lifestyle modifications, in treating resistant hypertension is low. Recent studies have shown a reduction in blood pressure equivalent to that of a single antihypertensive drug in less severe cases of hypertension.
Methods: Following PRISMA 2020 guidelines, this systematic review concentrated on full-text English literature published between 2014 and 2024. Editorials and review articles that appeared in the same journal as the submission were not accepted without a DOI. The literature was assembled using a variety of online databases, including ScienceDirect, PubMed, and SagePub.
Result: The study screened about 3.000 publications using reputable sources including Science Direct, SagePub, and PubMed. Five papers were found to be pertinent for systematic investigation, after which the entire material was examined in more detail.
Conclusion: It has been demonstrated that patiromer, a K1-binding drug, improves cardiovascular outcomes in patients with hypertension and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Phase II trial results demonstrated that patiromer can safely permit spironolactone use and prevent hyperkalemia, hence reducing renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor non-use in patients with heart failure refractory to exercise. Long-term findings regarding the effects on the kidneys and heart are nevertheless required. Treatment for renal denervation has demonstrated encouraging outcomes in lowering blood pressure without side effects.

Published: May 2024

African catfish, Clarias gariepinus of average weight 1.5 kg were filleted and pretreated with extracts of turmeric (TU) and ginger (GI) before hot smoking at 80 °C. The combination levels of TU and GI per treatment were as follows: Treatment 1, T1 (100TU:50GI), T2 (50TU:100GI), T3 (0TU:150GI), T4 (0TU:0GI), and T5 (75TU:75GI). The fillets were immersed into the treatment solution for 20 min and then hot smoked for 36 hours at 80°C. The smoked and dried fillets were stored for 30 days and analyzed for proximate composition, thiobarbituric acid essential substances (TBASR), peroxide value (PV), free fatty acid content, total volatile nitrogen base, and fungal and microbial biota. Protein content increased in the post-treated sample while moisture was reduced and lipid varied with smoking. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances of the fillets were highest among those subjected to treatment T4, 0.75±0.11mg/100g but lowest for those of T1, 0.38±0.01mg/100g. The free fatty acids of the fillets after treatment, ranged from 1.23±0.07 % oleic acid in fillets treated with T1, to 3.06±0.08% oleic acid in fillet treated with T4. The fillets TVB-N treated with treatment 4 (T4), had the highest 1 TVB-N 19.81±0.04 mg/100g. Fillet treated with T4 had the highest FFA of 3.06±0.08% oleic acid while those treated to T1 had, 1.23±0.07 % oleic acid. Peroxide value was highest for T4, 20.07±0.22 and lowest for those subjected to T1, 10.30±0.03.Treatment 1 was toxic to both bacterial and fungal infestation with no visible growth of Rhizopus spp growth after 3 days of incubation. However, there was high vegetative fungal growth in the T4 experimental group.
Global Status of Giant Prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii Farming with Special Reference to India and Measures for Enhancing Production
Authors: Pillai Bindu R. , Panda D.
Published: May 2024

Macrobrachium rosenbergii widely known as Giant Prawn (GP) is one of the most important freshwater prawn species widely cultured in several tropical and sub-tropical countries around the world. The global production of GP in 2021 was 3,13,756 t with a value of over $ 2.45 billion. China is the top producer with a production of 1,71,263 t accounting for 54.4% of the global production. Bangladesh, Thailand, Myanmar, and India are the other major producers of GP. India used to be the second largest producer of GP in 2005, however, since then the production showed a declining trend till 2012 with production declining from 42,800 t in 2005 to 3,333 t in 2012. The major reasons for the declining production were slow growth rate, outbreak of diseases and low survival during grow-out, which led to poor production and declining profit for the farmers. However, since 2013 there has been a gradual increase in production till 2020, and in 2021 the production showed a 2.5-fold increase from 2020 production. Considering the huge natural resources available for GP farming in the country and the high value it fetches, demand in domestic and export markets, and its potential to enhance the income of farmers, there is an urgent need to further expand GP farming in India. The present paper provides a brief status update on global GP farming with special reference to India and suggests measures for enhancing the aquaculture production of GP in India.
Value Addition of Fish in Jammu and Kashmir: A Review
Authors: Siddiqui Shahwar , Afshan Humera , Hashmi Salman , Srivastava Akansha
Published: May 2024

Globally, there is a growing need for diverse value-added food items. Value Addition refers to "any additional activity that in one way or another changes the nature of a product thus adding to its value at the time of sale". Three distinct traditional fish preservation procedures identified in Jammu & Kashmir are smoking, sun drying, and pickling collectively called as Curing. Cured fish consumption is higher in locations with restricted access to fresh fish, such as interior markets and hilly areas. This is also the most economical technique of preservation because no expensive technology is employed. In India, around 20% of the fish collected is preserved through curing. Sun drying is the most extensively used traditional method of preservation, by reducing the moisture content of the fish, which inhibit the activities of bacteria and fungi. Smoked fish are known locally as fari, sun-dried fish as hugaad, and pickled fish as gaad anchaar. Fisherwomen often work as vendors, which is not economically sustainable. Because they must sell the catch within a day, they may have to sell it at a low price that does not pay their expenses. To prevent this and increase income, businesses can add value to fish goods. some value-added fish products are, fish pickle, sauce, pasta, fish cutlets, fish balls, noodles and Ready-To-Eat Fish Curry. Value addition can increase profitability in the fish processing sector, which is becoming increasingly competitive and expensive. Fish-based goods in convenient ready-to-eat formats are in high demand. Effective marketing of new value-added products requires careful consideration of appearance, packaging, and display. The retail package should be clean, sharp, and transparent, with appealing contents for consumers. This evaluation intends to transition in J&K from producing safe and high-quality fishery products for local use to export.

Media sosial sangat berperan penting dalam mempengaruhi masyarakat atau publik dalam menentukan pengambilan keputusan. Media sosial tidak hanya berperan sebagai tempat komunikasi, namun juga wadah untuk mengakses informasi lebih banyak dan lebih luas lagi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan peran media sosial di lingkup proses pengambilan keputusan politik melalui penyebab dan dampak yang ditimbulkan oleh media sosial dalam proses pengambilan keputusan politik. Metode yang digunakan yaitu dengan kualitatif deskriptif dengan menggunakan pendekatan problem tree analysis. Data diambil lewat sumber-sumber kepustakaan (literatur review). Hasil dari penelitian ini didapati bahwa penggunaan media sosial memberikan dampak yang dapat mempengaruhi proses pengambilan keputusan politik. Media sosial memang memudahkan masyarakat mengakses segala informasi yang dibutuhkan untuk bisa menambah wawasan masyarakat. Akan tetapi, penggunaan media sosial yang tidak digunakan dengan bijak saat mencerna informasi yang didapatkan atas berita-berita yang mengandung perpecahan, bersifat hoax atau bohong, mengandung isu sara, agama, dan lainnya yang mana akan menghasilkan pengambilan keputusan yang berdampak buruk. Dalam prosesnya media sosial menimbulkan permasalahan, salah satunya adalah maraknya echo chamber dan polarisasi politik yang menimbulkan konflik sosial. Hal ini disebabkan oleh banyaknya pengguna media sosial yang memanfaatkan media sosial untuk kempanye negatif, algoritna media sosial yang seringkali menampilkan konten yang serupa dengan minat pengguna, dan iklan politik dan propaganda yang menargetkan pemilih di media sosial, sehingga menghambat proses pengambilan keputusan politik.

Published: May 2024

Pendidikan inklusif telah menjadi fokus utama dalam sistem pendidikan Indonesia untuk memastikan bahwa semua siswa, termasuk penyandang disabilitas, menikmati hak atas pendidikan yang setara. Namun, terlepas dari upaya tersebut, masih terdapat berbagai tantangan dalam pelaksanaan program ini. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis program inklusivitas pendidikan di Kota Kediri, meliputi pengambilan keputusannya, hambatan pelaksanaan, dan hasil yang diharapkan. Studi literatur digunakan sebagai metode penelitian untuk memahami berbagai aspek terkait program pendidikan inklusif. Program tersebut dilatarbelakangi oleh beberapa faktor, antara lain diskriminasi, prasangka, rendahnya kesadaran sosial, rendahnya tingkat pendidikan, tidak meratanya akses terhadap pendidikan, dan terbatasnya akses fisik, serta jarak dan jumlah sekolah. Analisis pohon masalah digunakan untuk mengidentifikasi akar penyebab dan akibat dari permasalahan yang dihadapi selama pelaksanaan program. Analisis tersebut menemukan bahwa diskriminasi, prasangka, dan kurangnya kesadaran sosial merupakan hambatan utama, sementara akses yang tidak setara terhadap pendidikan dan terbatasnya akses fisik juga berkontribusi terhadap sulitnya menyediakan pendidikan yang adil dan inklusif. Meski demikian, program pendidikan inklusif yang dilakukan Kota Kediri telah memberikan dampak positif dalam meningkatkan partisipasi siswa penyandang disabilitas pada pendidikan formal.

The purpose of this study is to investigate how green awareness (GA) and environmental laws (EL) can enhance group sustainability (CS) within HEIs. The objective is to recognize successful techniques for HEIs to add to the Assembled Countries Practical Improvement Objectives (SDGs). The specialists utilized a quantitative methodology, gathering information from 500 agents across different Pakistani HEIs through purposive testing. The legalization of the measurement model and the testing of confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modeling (SEM) were carried out with the help of the research hypotheses and IBM SPSS AMOS software. Ecological regulations straightforwardly influence maintainability execution, and their adequacy is fundamentally improved by the degree of green mindfulness inside the establishment, addressing that the outcomes uncovered significant direct impacts of EL and GA on CS, with EL's effect being interceded by GA. The consideration investigated that all component loadings outclassed the suggested edge, supporting the consistency and legitimacy of the ideas. The model reveals a good deal of the variation in CS. With R2 values, model-fit indices also suggested that the operational model was a good fit for the data. Cultivate green attention to accomplish further and seriously persevering through supportability results yet effective discoveries feature the necessity for HEIs with not just compliance to ecological regulations but the formation of partnerships to promote initiatives aimed at sustainability. The improvement of inclusive sustainability policies that are in line with environmental standards and the incorporation of sustainability into programs are two of the policy recommendations. HEIs' contributions to the SDGs are enhanced by their essential role in proceeding with global sustainability efforts and their strategies as a whole.

Ensuring the success and sustainability of hotels hinges on assessing guest satisfaction levels, taking into account the impact of the built environment on the overall experience. Elements such as architecture, design, amenities, and ambience significantly contribute to guest satisfaction. This study aims to assess user satisfaction in hotel-built environments, focusing on functionality, building quality, aesthetics, and hotel atmospherics. It employs a mixed-method approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods, conducting case studies on selected 5-star hotels in Lagos State. Questionnaires, addressing demographics, frequency of hotel facility use, satisfaction levels, and impact assessment of various hotel elements, were distributed. Statistical measures, including frequency, mean, and standard deviation, were employed for data analysis. The assessment of user satisfaction in selected Lagos State hotels revealed nuanced insights. While parking facilities and room size received moderate to high satisfaction levels, opinions on aesthetic design and interior decor varied. Impact analysis highlighted the significant influence of spatial layout, ventilation, and infrastructure quality on user satisfaction. The findings stress the importance of targeted improvements in specific architectural elements to enhance user satisfaction. Recommendations include a strategic focus on refining parking facilities and room layouts, along with continuous improvements in aesthetic design and interior decor. By tailoring improvements to specific architectural elements based on guest expectations, hotels can contribute to a more gratifying and memorable guest experience in Lagos State.

Post-harvest losses due to fungal pathogens pose a significant threat to groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) production, affecting both food security and economic stability. In this study, we investigated the potential of plant extracts as eco-friendly alternatives for controlling fungal pathogens associated with post-harvest rot of groundnut. Four plant species, including neem (Azadirachta indica), garlic (Allium sativum), ginger (Zingiber officinale), and turmeric (Curcuma longa), were selected based on their known antimicrobial properties. Crude extracts were prepared from these plants and evaluated for their antifungal activity against common post-harvest rot agents, including Aspergillus spp., Fusarium spp., and Penicillium spp. The agar well diffusion method was employed to assess the inhibitory effects of the plant extracts against the fungal pathogens. Additionally, a control trial was conducted using leaf extracts of neem and drumstick (Moringa oleifera), with phytochemical analysis performed to determine the composition of bioactive compounds. The results revealed significant antifungal activity of all tested plant extracts, with neem extract exhibiting the highest efficacy against fungal pathogens. Phytochemical analysis indicated the presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, phenols, tannins, saponins, and terpenoids in the leaf extracts, highlighting their potential as sources of natural bioactive compounds. These findings suggest that plant extracts offer promising alternatives to synthetic fungicides for controlling post-harvest rot pathogens in groundnut. Further research is warranted to optimize the efficacy of plant extracts and elucidate their mechanisms of action for practical applications in groundnut storage and processing facilities.

The main objective of the current study is to examine e-customer loyalty in the Pakistani banking sector by combining the expectancy theory and incorporating the mediating impact of electronic customer satisfaction on the relationship between electronic customer loyalty, efficiency, user friendliness, responsiveness, and reliability. Data have been collected through a close-ended questionnaire for data collection from the consumers of Pakistan by using the survey method. A structured questionnaire-based quantitative research approach will be used to gather data. A significant portion of the questionnaires received was deemed suitable for in-depth analysis. 260 out of 300 submitted questionnaires were eligible for further examination, as 40 respondents partially filled in their responses. The SERVQUAL model examines e-customer loyalty in the Pakistani banking sector. Five hypotheses were made, and the results showed a positive impact, while the results did not support four mediating hypotheses. The study's conclusions offer a wide range of theoretical and practical recommendations for bank management that aim to improve the security and usability of online banking websites while fostering consumer loyalty and confidence. This study offers valuable insights to promote consumer confidence in online banking services.
Social Media Addiction and Disordered Eating Behavior Among University Students: Appearance Based Rejection Sensitivity as Mediator
Authors: Imtiaz Hadia , Malik Nudra
Published: May 2024

Social media has become a necessary part of people's lives in the current era. However, compulsive use of social media could have severe consequences for the psychological and social health of users. The current research was carried out to study the relationship between social media addiction, appearance-based rejection sensitivity, and disordered eating behaviors among university students. Data was selected through non-probability convenience sampling, and a sample of 300 university students aged 18-30 years (M=21.34, SD= 5.86) was collected. The Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale, Rejection Sensitivity Scale, and Disordered Eating Behavior Scale were used for assessment. Results indicated that there was a significant positive relationship between social media addiction, appearance-based rejection sensitivity, and disordered eating behavior in students. Also, rejection sensitivity acts as a mediator between social media and disordered eating behavior. The study found disordered eating behavior is more common in women than men. This research implies that social media can serve as a significant factor in appearance-based rejection sensitivity and eating disorders in students and young people. This study could create awareness about appropriate social media use and its consequences on students. It would also help in devising strategies that could prevent the damage it could have on the mental and physical health of students, particularly appearance comparisons and judgments, risk of depression, and appearance-based rejection sensitivities.

The universality of counterfeiting in attire fashion on social media platforms has raised concerns about its impact on consumers and the fashion industry. The quantitative analysis of the paper aimed to examine the possible perceptions and attitudes towards counterfeiting in attire and the necessary need for regulations to control their promotion and sale on social media. By collecting data through a survey from 102 valid respondents of multiple age groups, genders, and educational backgrounds, the study aimed to understand the opinions and perspectives of a broad cross-section of the population and their contribution towards fake attire fashion and promoting quacks. The survey results indicated harmony among respondents regarding their usage of social media for online attire shopping, their intentions, experiences, and the necessity of strict regulations to address the issue of fake clothing brands on social media. Most of the participants, particularly the young generation in the 20-30 age range, expressed support for measures for controlling the promotion and sale of counterfeit clothing brands due to their harsh experiences and excessive social media usage. Interestingly, male and female respondents agreed on the need for regulations, with slightly higher percentages among female respondents due to their craze for online shopping. By doing so, they can protect consumers from the potential harm and damage caused by counterfeiting, as well as preserve the integrity and credibility of the fashion industry.
