Authors: Mai Kobayashi
Published: May 2024

Purpose: The aim of the study was to analyze the influence of air quality on respiratory health in urban areas in Japan.
Methodology: This study adopted a desk methodology. A desk study research design is commonly known as secondary data collection. This is basically collecting data from existing resources preferably because of its low cost advantage as compared to a field research. Our current study looked into already published studies and reports as the data was easily accessed through online journals and libraries.
Findings: Research in Japan indicates a clear link between urban air quality and respiratory health, with pollutants like PM2.5 and nitrogen dioxide posing significant risks. High pollution levels, stemming from factors like vehicular emissions and industrial activities, are particularly detrimental in densely populated areas. Vulnerable groups, such as children and the elderly, are especially affected, experiencing worsened symptoms and reduced lung function. Urgent implementation of effective air quality management measures is crucial to protect public health in Japanese cities.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Environmental justice theory, exposure-response theory & place-based theory may be used to anchor future studies on analyze the influence of air quality on respiratory health in urban areas in Japan. Implement community-based interventions that target vulnerable populations, such as children, the elderly, and individuals with pre-existing respiratory conditions, in collaboration with local stakeholders and healthcare providers.

Urgent action is needed, including stricter regulations and public health initiatives, to protect Mexican children's well-being.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: Environmental determinism theory, bronfenbrenner’s ecological systems theory & health belief model (HBM) may be used to anchor future studies on analyze the impact of air quality on respiratory health in children in Mexico. Encourage pediatricians and healthcare providers to routinely discuss air quality issues during visits and provide guidance on minimizing exposure, especially in areas with known poor air quality. Policy initiatives should aim to reduce the emission of key pollutants identified in the research as harmful to children's respiratory health.

Oyster mushroom is a type of edible fungus with a mild umami flavor and meat-like texture when cooked, potentially as a substitute for MSG (monosodium glutamate), aiming to reduce sodium content in Filipino dishes, and promote healthier eating habits and food choices. This study seeks to determine if Oyster Mushroom Powder can be a suitable alternative to MSG by comparing the sensory properties of Oyster Mushroom Powder with that of MSG once they were applied to three different food samples using a Triangle Test. The three main properties to be compared were Aroma, Taste, and Texture. The main findings of this study show that the food samples that were seasoned with Oyster Mushroom Powder overall had comparable or superior sensory properties when compared with the samples seasoned with MSG. The result of this study contributes to a growing body of research on mushroom sensory properties and potential usage in food products.

Authors: Patidar Varsha , Tiwari Archana , Nagle Shikha
Published: May 2024

Diabetes mellitus, particularly Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), presents a significant global health challenge, necessitating continuous advancements in therapeutic strategies. Gliclazide, an oral selective inhibitor of sodium glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2), has emerged as a promising agent for managing T2DM by facilitating urinary glucose excretion and reducing plasma glucose levels. However, ensuring the quality and efficacy of pharmaceutical formulations remains crucial for regulatory approval and clinical effectiveness. In this study, we present the development of an improved stability-indicating Reverse Phase-High Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) method for the precise quantification of Gliclazide. The novel analytical method employs 0.1% Potassium Phosphate in water 0.1% Potassium Phosphate in methanol (MeOH) as the mobile phase, demonstrating enhanced sensitivity, cost-effectiveness, and reduced reliance on organic chemicals. Through rigorous validation following International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) guidelines, the developed method exhibited superior performance in terms of retention times compared to existing methodologies. The proposed analytical approach holds promise for routine analysis of Gliclazide in both bulk and tablet formulations, offering a valuable tool for pharmaceutical quality control and clinical research in the management of T2DM.

Authors: Mwangi Peter Maina , Minja David , Msabah Barnabé Anzuruni
Published: May 2024

The Anglican Church of Kenya (ACK) faces challenges in its growth endeavors, including program sustainability and the need for technological and spiritual advancement. These challenges imply that ACK followers may not fully benefit from the socio-economic and spiritual advantages associated with church membership. This study aimed to investigate the correlation between strategic leadership intent and ACK’s growth. The study utilized a cross-sectional design to investigate church leadership dynamics within the Anglican Church of Kenya, specifically focusing on strategic leadership and church growth. A sample of 315 church leaders was drawn from various administrative levels, including provincial administration members and diocesan secretariat members, reflecting both urban and rural demographics. Proportional stratified sampling ensured representation across different strata. Data collection involved a structured questionnaire administered either online or in person, covering participant demographics and key research variables. Reliability coefficients, such as Cronbach’s alpha, were computed to ensure the questionnaire’s internal consistency. Statistical analyses, including linear regression, were conducted using SPSS to evaluate research hypotheses. The study found that strategic leadership intent explained 19.1% of the variance in church growth within the Anglican Church of Kenya, indicating a significant relationship between the two factors. A one-unit increase in strategic leadership intent corresponded to a 0.438 increase in church growth, suggesting a positive association between the two variables. These findings support the idea that effective strategic leadership plays a crucial role in driving church growth, with nearly one-fifth of the variations in growth attributable to strategic leadership. Overall, the results underscore the importance of strategic leadership in fostering the growth and development of the Anglican Church of Kenya. Subsequent research endeavors could explore distinct facets of strategic leadership to discern their individual impacts on church growth.
