The diversity of French society
Authors: Abdellaoui Abdelkader
Published: March 2024

The barometer method for observing French society is based on the observation of programs and the indexing of people who speak on air. It is carried out per person and per broadcast. Consequently, a person is indexed once, and once only, when he or she speaks. The indexing of each criterion is carried out taking into account the supposed common sense categories, that is to say, according to the perception that most viewers would have. This perception is formed throughout the program, based on numerous elements that can be visible on the screen, said, written or even induced. Seven criteria are currently retained: Perceived origin (perceived as “white”, perceived as “black”, perceived as “Arab”, perceived as “Asian”, “other”) gender (“masculine”, “feminine”) Socio-professional category (“CSP+”, “CSP–”, “inactive” and “marginal or illegal activities”) Disability (“yes”, “no”) age (“under 20 years”, “20 - 34 years”, “35 – 49 years”, “50 – 64 years” and “65 years and over”) The precarious situation (“yes”, “no”) The place of residence (“city center”, “peripheral neighborhoods of houses and small buildings”, “large groups of popular suburbs”, “villages”, “DOM-TOM”). (Sources: https://www.csa.fr/Informer/Collections-du-CSA/Observatoire-de-la-diversite/Barometre-de-la-representation-de-la-societe-francaise-resultats-de-la -wave-2020) French society is thus multicultural, multi-religious, and multi-cultural; this diversity must be considered as strength if we want to build a society of equality, understanding and acceptance of the Other as different, certainly, but as being having the same rights, the same duties and the same obligations. Certain groups or associations campaign for this type of society and for interbelief. We will simply cite the G3i group (International, Intercultural and Interconvictional); this group is currently chaired by Professor F. Becker; it brings together Muslims, Buddhists, people of the Jewish tradition, and even atheists.
Hemorrhagic Primary Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Stomach : A Case Report
Authors: Anas ELWASSI
Published: March 2024

Introduction: Primary squamous cell carcinoma of the stomach is an extremely rare malignancy. The pathogenesis of this tumor remains obscure, and the optimal treatment strategy is controversial. Presentation of case: Here, we describe a case of gastric SCC complicated by multiple hemorrhagic episodes. Discussion: The origin of primary squamous cell carcinoma of the stomach is unclear. there are several hypotheses; arising from the squamous metaplasia of the gastric mucosa; arising from multipotent stem cells; arising from the ectopic squamous epithelium; squamous differentiation from a pre-existing adenocarcinoma; and arising from the vascular endothelium of the stomach. It is probably is related to HPV, EBV, and HP infections. Under chronic inflammatory exposure, tissue stem cell transformation causes epithelial metaplasia and dysplasia, then epithelial carcinoma occurs. The treatment paradigm for this rare disease is the same as for other gastric malignancies. Surgery followed by chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy remain the optimum pick for the management of the primary squamous cell carcinoma of the stomach, regardless of evolutivity of the primary tumor. Conclusion: Primary squamous cell carcinoma of the stomach generally has a poor prognosis. Surgery remains the primary treatment, and adjuvant therapy is unclear. The clinical treatment is basically the same as that of adenocarcinoma.

Is all the UNESCO´s Qhapaq Ñan really Inca? Problems with the incorporation of sections and sites from San Juan (Argentina)
Authors: Garcıa Alejandro
Published: March 2024

The nomination and acceptance of the Qhapaq Ñan as World Heritage took more than a decade of work in the six countries involved. In Argentina, a centralized coordination system in charge of articulating the proposals of the provinces that were part of the national program was implemented. Some people expressed certain inconveniences in the program’s development, mainly related to the participation of native communities. Furthermore, the presentation approved by UNESCO shows some shortcomings associated with the identification of some of the proposed elements. In this sense, and in order to provide relevant information to better understand the Argentinean nomination process and its outcome, this article shows the divergences between the Inca Road system known in San Juan and the one accepted in the project, the nomination of a section and associated sites without the corresponding evidence of their Inca character and a failed previous proposal to incorporate historical sites to the project. Also, to help explain this situation, some aspects related to the actions of different agents and the possible incidence of political power are discussed.

Published: March 2024

Background The COVID-19 pandemic led to a prompt implementation of remote care, especially in mental health care. The evidence supporting this modality of care is still emerging, with few qualitative studies describing its implementation in Latin American countries. This study aims to understand the perspectives of therapists and patients regarding the use of telehealth in a child and adolescent mental health unit of a Chilean public service. Methods This is a qualitative study. Two focus groups were defined with 14 professionals, and 16 in-depth interviews were conducted with users of an outpatient child and adolescent psychiatry unit. The data were analyzed using the grounded theory model. Results In the group of therapists, four main categories emerged: background of mental telehealth, implementation, mental telehealth from the therapist's position, and projections. Three main categories emerged in the patient's group: implementation, evaluation of mental telehealth users, and projections. Conclusions There are elements in common between the opinions of patients and therapists. Something to note within the patient's group is that, despite accepting remote care and recognizing its positive aspects, aside from the pandemic context, they prefer face-to-face or mixed care.

Published: March 2024

The packaging industry as a pioneer in waste production is looking for environmentally friendly and green solutions in these days. These factors are driving the development of packaging and forcing the industry to invest in research and development to make flexible packaging more sustainable than the existing packaging options. In this review, the factors of main ingredient’s selection on migration barrier properties have been investigated within the new designed heat-sealing lacquer. The new heat-sealing lacquer design has been carried out, which will ensure thermal sealing in Aluminum/Pet Blister Packaging structure, suitable for direct contact food, and at the same time prevent the migration of printed ink to the secondary packaging layer, Pet film side. Because of laboratory tests, the effects and results of heat-sealing lacquer formulations have been assessed and prevented the negative ink migration tendencies in existing heat-seal lacquers for blister packaging structure. That would be possible to use the obtained PET film by recycling processes as a green solution to flexible packaging sector. In this way, Pet films can be separated and used in recycling processes when blister packaging printed with new designed heat-sealing lacquer
The attendance alert based biometric system for employees using fingerprint: a case of hope Africa university, Bujumbura-Burundi
Authors:   , Ndayisaba Salama
Published: March 2024

Attendance has been used as a key to success in all disciplines worldwide. Most institutions’ officers make efforts to monitor the attendance of their employees in their daily activities. However, most of the applied attendance systems used in the institutions are manual. The manual system-based attendance management has a lot of limitations such as masquerades, hard-to-access data, no data centralization. Automated systems-based attendances have been developed and used in many institutions around the world. Regardless of the capability of the automated based system to provide unique identification, the alert subsystem for the late employees is still missing. This project developed the Attendance Alert Based-Biometric system for Employees using Fingerprint to improve the recognition accuracy of automated attendance systems. To use this developed system all users must be registered and then scan their fingers on the sensor in reporting time and leaving time. This system has increased the accuracy of the institution and allows human resource managers to know and track all employees’ attendance and get an alert if an employee late has been detected. It also helped to automate the processes of attendance making and make recorded data to be accessible.

Authors:   , Adam Kitoi
Published: March 2024

Railway transportation is one of the oldest forms of transportation that created links to populated and unpopulated parts of the world with railway tracks constructed through remote areas in earlier days. The ever-growing utilization of science and technology has been implemented in railway transportation to reduce travel time and increase passenger comfortability. African countries such as Tanzania acquired a railway network during the colonial era with the government performing few modifications to cater to evolving passengers’ needs. There are still setbacks in generating adequate information on how the railway sector progresses and how railway information is disseminated to the public. This study utilizes information technology and provides means for railway data collection, analysis, and information dissemination in Tanzania through the use of web and mobile applications. The study was conducted through the collection of data from Tanzania Railway Corporation (TRC) headquarters in Dar es Salaam intending to understand the overall performance of the railway sector in terms of data acquisition and information dissemination. The research looked into ways in which Tanzania differs from railway systems that are statistically improved with Great Britain being the casing point and found use of fewer railway attributes being collected and analyzed. This prompted the development of an improved railway information system which used mixed approach in data collection involving interviews with TRC staff, questionnaires distributed among passengers, and document reviews. From system requirements acquired, android and web applications were successfully developed which create a gateway to railway information, provide visual presentations of collected data from day-to-day railway operations, create up-to-date maps of the Tanzania railway network, and foster higher accuracy data collection.. The evaluation of the developed system showed great acceptance as a way forward for railway data capturing, analyzing and dissemination in the near future. Inclusion of GIS techniques proved to be of importance in creating awareness of Tanzania railway network to the public with participants having a higher percentage of agreement in the matter. In general acceptance, the system received more than 75% approval rating prompting more usage of railway data attributes as evaluation keypoint in railway transportation within Tanzania.

Authors:   , Mfano Charles
Published: March 2024

prey-predator interactions have been an important role in the dynamics of species populations. This work presents mathematical model for Modelling Optimal control of Harvested prey- predator system incorporating a prey refuge using deterministic differential equations. This study, develops two harvested prey-predator species, in which both species are affected by over-harvesting, furthermore the predator is affected by prey refuge. The intention is to in- vestigate the impacts of over-harvesting to prey-predator species and suggest control strategies to alleviate the problem of loss of prey-predator species. The analysis of stability of equilib- rium points were done by Jacobian matrix, Global stability analysis is done using Lyapunov function while the analysis of optimal control was done using Pontrygians maximum principle (PMP) and Hamiltonian principle. The control strategy suggested is the creation of reserve ar- eas with restrictions of harvesting. The results obtained from theoretical and numerical analysis of the prey-predator with harvesting without control strategies showed that, harvesting affect the prey-predator species negatively. However, the results obtained from numerical analysis of the prey-predator model with control strategies showed that, the use of control strategy encourage the survival of both species

This study explores the efficacy of pixelated carbon dioxide (CO2) laser treatment in mitigating vulvovaginal atrophy symptoms among perimenopausal and postmenopausal women. This study examines the effectiveness of CO2 laser treatment in reducing vaginal discomfort for women experiencing menopause. With a cohort of 127 participants (mean age 47 ± 5 years), the researchers administered three sessions of vaginal CO2 laser treatment over three months. The primary evaluation metric was patient-reported satisfaction levels, aiming to assess the treatment's impact on alleviating symptoms associated with vulvovaginal atrophy, such as dryness, burning, and discomfort during intercourse. The findings revealed that 98% of the patients experienced significant symptom improvement three months post-treatment. Notably, 89% reported a resolution of sexual dysfunction due to vaginal dryness, and 96% indicated an end to discomfort and burning sensations. The satisfaction of the patients is extremely high, with 98% of the participants being satisfied with the results, and this satisfaction has persisted even after some time following the treatment. Furthermore, 95% of the women encountered no discomfort during the procedure, and any post-treatment complaints were mild and temporary, with a watery discharge being the most common. The study concludes that pixel CO2 laser treatment is a practical, painless, and efficient approach for addressing vulvovaginal atrophy symptoms, yielding high patient satisfaction rates. The study finds that using pixel CO2 laser treatment is a practical and painless way to help with symptoms of vaginal discomfort, and most patients are satisfied with the results.

Authors: Mardon Austin , Shah Khushi
Published: March 2024

The Oxford English Dictionary defines corruption as dishonest or illegal behaviour, especially of people in authority. Education is arguably one of the most important aspects of life as with such a lot of doors are opened for individuals, which are not offered to those without. Generation after generation the power and importance of education is only further highlighted, thus more and more children are pursuing higher education. As such, the number of students enrolled in schooling worldwide has been on an upwards trajectory, with an increase of over 150 million students since 2000 for secondary school and around 82 million since 2000 for primary school (Statista, 2022). Furthermore, the completion rate of primary school was close to 90% in 2019 and 76% for secondary school (Statista, 2022). Education can provide individuals with so many options and aid in their life path by increasing the aspects of stability in life, financial stability, equality between individuals worldwide, self-dependence, confidence, provides safety, and helps one reach their goals (Nair, 2022). In Canada itself, more than 1.4 million students are enrolled in a Canadian University, and 2.2 million students are enrolled in some form of postsecondary education (Universities Canada, 2018).

[Book Review] True Encounter: Martin Buber’s ‘I and Thou’
Authors:   Consilience Humanities Association, Kim Hyun-lae
Published: March 2024

Through Martin Buber’s ‘I and Thou’, a profound philosophical reflection on the encounter between ‘I and Thou’, we can see that we can achieve true life only through true encounter. In contrast, if we live inhumanely, using each other as if we were objects, in an ‘I-It’ relationship, the value and dignity of the personality of members of our community is lost. The essence of a true encounter is a direct conversation with one's whole being. The important thing is that I cannot achieve such a meeting and conversation just because I want it and am obsessed with it. The meeting time is when you empty your heart towards the other person and wait for that grace with sincerity. That one moment of grace becomes an eternal moment in a person's life.

Published: March 2024

Water and nutrients are the most constraining factors in sorghum production in semiarids of eastern Ethiopia. Combining soil moisture conservation and nutrient management practices may reduce these limitations. The study was carried out to explore the effects of combining soil moisture preservation and integrated nutrient management practices on soil water content and water-use efficiency (WUE) of grain sorghum. A split plot experiment was conducted at Babile and Erer districts amid the 2017 cropping season. Main plots were assigned to soil moisture conservation practices (flatbed and tied ridge) and the sub-plots were assigned to six nutrient combinations of 0N0P kg + t FYM; 46N10P kg + t FYM ha-1; 0N0P kg + 5 t FYM ha-1; 23N5P kg + 2.5 t FYM ha-1; 46N10P kg + 2.5 t FYM ha-1 and 23N5P kg + 5 t FYM ha-1. Treatments were randomized in a Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. The sorghum variety 'Teshale' was used as a test crop. The results uncovered that both biomass and grain water-use efficiencies considerably improved with tied ridges coordinates with NP and FYM than other treatments. Tied ridges combined with 46N10P kg + 2.5 t FYM ha-1 and 23N5P kg + 5 t FYM ha-1 were way better than those of tied edges. The tied edges with 46N10P kg + 2.5 t FYM ha-1 (M5) as compared to unfertilized flatbeds, had brought about approximately 110 and 99% increment in biomass WUE and around 114 and 124% increment in grain WUE at Babile and Erer areas, respectively. Essentially, soil water content was higher for tied ridges amended with FYM and integrated NP and FYM as compared to other treatments. We, hence, concluded that combining moisture conservation impacts with the integrated nutrient amendment would improve soil water content and water-use efficiency of grain sorghum in eastern Ethiopia.

With both models, an investor will be able to find out the composition of stocks, especially shares of companies engaged in agribusiness, as well as directly to find out the proportion of each stock and its risks and benefits arising from the formation of the portfolio. The results showed that by using the CAPM and APT models in the calculation of the formation of optimal portfolios in stocks excange Agribusiness, produces a portfolio with stocks composision 3 froms, namely AALI, TBLA and UNSP. APT model approach shows a greater value than the CAPM models, the highest return value can be generated is 14.088% while that may happen is losses -0268% while the CAPM models yield the highest return rate of 5.74% and the losses will be experienced by -14.54 %. significant difference in outcome is caused from the different assumptions of the models above. From these results should be expected investors to take investment decisions of agribusiness firms stocks in the Indonesia Stock Exchange with respect to the results obtained from the approach to the CAPM and APT models, in addition to the results obtained from both models are also investors give the attention of fundamental and technical factors companies that investors are not wrong and more confident in make investment decisions.

The term “predictive analytics” refers to the use of sophisticated algorithms to both existing and future data in order to foretell how online shoppers will act. Businesses may optimise supply chain operations, anticipate consumer demands, and remove uncertainty from crucial choices with the aid of predictive analytics. Insights into consumer behaviour, such rates of shopping cart abandonment and clickstream data showing interest levels, aid in the prediction of purchase probability and the optimisation of the online experience. Businesses may better target promotions and cross-sell products by analysing customer purchase histories and sales data, which shows purchasing habits, purchase values, and product affinities. Proactive decision-making to optimise marketing efforts, personalise customer interactions, and maximise long-term profitability and customer pleasure is made possible by ecommerce indicators like as churn forecasts, conversion rates, and CLV, which further enhance predictive models. Predictive Analytics in Online Retail: A Data-Driven Strategy for Enhanced Consumer Satisfaction is the topic of this chapter.
Implementation of Bekasi City Regional Health Insurance Program Implementation Policy
Authors: Yuan Sabina Athiyyah
Published: March 2024

The main problem raised in this study is the ineffectiveness of policies and programs in Bekasi City based on Family Cards and Identity Numbers. Qualitative research strategies combined with descriptive analysis are research methods used by researchers. The expectation that original data could be collected and research subjects could be thoroughly studied to provide the desired findings led to the selection of this methodology and approach. As a result of various factors, including standard factors, policy size and objectives, resources, implementing organization characteristics, implementing attitudes, communication between related organizations and implementation activities, as well as the social, economic, and political environment, the findings of this study can be used to explain why the Bekasi City Health Insurance policy has not been implemented effectively. However, these variables, the characteristic factors of implementing agents and policy resource factors, have not been implemented properly in their implementation, so there are still obstacles in the implementation of the Regional Health Insurance policy. Of course, this is not the best approach to providing quality public services, especially in terms of the Regional Health Insurance Program for People Based on Family Cards and Identity Numbers.

Epilepsy is one of the most common chronic neurological diseases in children and may cause repeated seizures and complications. Thus, self-care behavior is vital for effective seizure control. This quasi-experimental study examined the effectiveness of the Self-efficacy Enhanced Program Using Cartoon Animation for self-care behaviors among school children with epilepsy. The study was conducted at a pediatric neurological clinic in the outpatient department of a tertiary hospital in Bangkok, Thailand. There were 42 children with epilepsy, aged 10 to 12 years, who participated in the study: 21 in the experiment group and 21 in the control group. The experimental group received the program, which used two cartoon animation videos to enhance self-care behaviors for eight weeks, while the control group received regular care only. The data were collected using demographic and self-care behavior questionnaires and were analyzed using chi-square and t-tests.The results demonstrated that after program completion, the mean scores of total self-care behavior and subscale on medication taking, avoiding triggers seizures, and self-care of abnormal symptoms and seeking information in the experimental group were significantly higher than before receiving it and higher than those in the control group significantly. Nurses should use this program to increase self-care behaviors among children with epilepsy. However, testing the program in other settings with long-term follow-up is needed before it can be used widely.

Nursing performance for patient safety is crucial for improving patient safety outcomes and quality of care. This cross-sectional study aimed to explore nursing performance for patient safety and identify the predictability of patient safety knowledge, patient safety attitude, nurse practice environment, patient-to-nurse ratio, and nursing hours per patient day on nursing performance for patient safety. The participants included 234 nurses randomly selected from six regional hospitals across Thailand. The research instruments included a demographic data form, the Practice Environment Scale of the Nursing Work Index, the Patient Safety Principles and Knowledge Questionnaire, the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire, and the Nursing Performance for Patient Safety Scale, which yielded scale-level content validity indices ranging from .85 to .88. The Cronbach’s alpha coefficients ranged from .81 to .98. Descriptive statistics and stepwise multiple regression were utilized for the data analysis.The results revealed that the nurses perceived overall nursing performance for patient safety at a high level. Patient-to-nurse ratio was the strongest predictor of nursing performance for patient safety, followed by patient safety knowledge, patient safety attitude, nurse practice environment, and nursing hours per patient day. All predictors could predict nursing performance for patient safety, accounting for 56.00% of the variance. Nurse administrators and policymakers can use the results of this study to develop strategies for improving nursing performance for patient safety. We recommend longitudinal studies using different samples of Thailand nurses in diverse settings to confirm results across the country.
