Published: April 2024

There is an increased interest in the chemistry of cannabis and cannabinoids and this is because of their therapeutic potentials. Several cannabinoids have been isolated from the leaves and flowers of Cannabis sativa, with some formulated into drugs for the treatment of certain ailments. In this study, the isolation and characterization, using chromatographic and NMR techniques, of cannabinoids from the stems of Cannabis sativa was carried out. Cannabis stems were collected from the Department of Biology, Nasarawa State College of Education, Akwanga. Fractionation and purification of the extracts were carried out using silica gel column chromatography. A high performance liquid chromatography equipped with an electrostatic light scattering detector, ultraviolet detector (UV) and mass spectrometry (MS) was used to determine the mass of isolated cannabinoids. Two cannabinoids, cannabinol and cannabinol methyl ether were isolated from fractions of the hexane, ethyl acetate and methanol extracts, and were characterized using a JEOL Delta GX 400 MHz FT nuclear magnetic resonance spectrophotometer. The isolation of these cannabinoids in sample analysed confirms that Nigeria cannabis contained cannabinoids, and this also shown that the stems of cannabis can be used as stimulants to reduce the effects and symptoms of glaucoma and treat cases related to epidermolysis bullosa because of the isolation of cannabinol.
Application of Fuzzy Sets for Personalized Healthcare Recommendation Systems
Authors: Atti Mangadevi , Chakravarthy B. Kalyan
Published: April 2024

In the era of personalized healthcare, the utilization of advanced technologies such as fuzzy sets holds promise for enhancing the effectiveness of recommendation systems. This paper explores the application of fuzzy sets in the development of a personalized healthcare recommendation system. Fuzzy sets provide a flexible framework for representing and reasoning with uncertain and imprecise information, which is inherent in healthcare data. By integrating fuzzy logic with machine learning algorithms, the recommendation system can adapt to the unique needs and preferences of individual patients, leading to more accurate and personalized healthcare recommendations. The proposed system leverages patient data, including medical history, symptoms, preferences, and demographic information, to generate tailored recommendations for treatments, medications, lifestyle modifications, and preventive measures. Furthermore, the system considers factors such as patient preferences, beliefs, and cultural background to ensure recommendations align with patient values and goals. Through a case study and evaluation using real-world healthcare data, the effectiveness and feasibility of the fuzzy sets-based recommendation system are demonstrated. The results highlight the potential of fuzzy sets in improving the quality of healthcare recommendations and ultimately enhancing patient outcomes in personalized healthcare settings.

Authors: Ferreira-Barbosa Helena , Loureiro Vânia , Sabino Bebiana
Published: April 2024

Objective. Body image is a predictor of physical, psychological, and social health. Therefore, it can be an indicator for detecting health problems, to be used in the context of higher education. The aim of this study was to assess body image satisfaction in higher education students and to determine whether body image dissatisfaction is related to lifestyle behaviours and life satisfaction.
Methodology. This study included 166 Portuguese higher education students. Body image was assessed using the Figure Rating Scale. Active choices during everyday life were assessed using the Active Choice Index. The questionnaire also included questions about sleep behaviour and tobacco and alcohol consumption. Satisfaction with Life was assessed using a five-item scale previously adapted for the Portuguese population.
Results. There was a predominance of boys dissatisfied with thinness (26.10%), while the majority of girls revealed that they were dissatisfied due to being overweight (55.70%). The results indicate statistically significant differences between boys and girls in terms of body image categories (p<0.001). However, when we analysed the behaviours separately according to gender, there were no differences. Active behaviours, as well as the other health behaviours analysed (hours of sleep per week and alcohol and tobacco consumption) did not differ between the different levels of body image satisfaction (p>0.05).
Conclusion. Most of the students are dissatisfied with their body image, with the majority of girls showing dissatisfaction due to being overweight. Lifestyles and life satisfaction do not differ between students who are satisfied and those who are dissatisfied with their body image.

Published: April 2024

Classical poets of every major language are edited after years of hard work and research. Editing, translation, glossary and commentary of the words of these great poets is not only a personal research but also an institutional research and Ph.D. level research. Ratter, institutions are created to make their words and messages known to people of all ages. This is the position of Khawaja Fareed in Siraiki literature. Khawaja Fareed is one of those lucky people whose poetry started to be published in his life and his poetry was popular among the people.
Four incomplete selections were published in Khawaja Fareed’s life. A year after the death of Khawaja Fareed, in 1902, the complete kalam of Fareed was published with the permission of his son and sajjadhan Nasheen Khawaja Muhammad Bakhsh Nazak karim under the title “Israr-e-Fareedi Maruf Beh Dewan-e-Fareedi. Untill them, only Kalam Fareed continued to be published.
With the desire of the Nawab of Bahawlpur and abundant state resources, Maulana Aziz ul Rehman published Dewan-e-fareed in 1944. This is the first Dewan Fareed published with translation, dictionary and commentary. Four edition were published. Not a single error has been corrected in these four edition. In 1998 Javed Chandio published Dewan Fareed. In wich he removed the spelling mistakes of Maulana  Aziz ul Rehman’s Dewan-o-Fareed text and pointed out the differences in the text after a comparative study with “Asrar-e-Fareedi maruf Beh Dewan-e-Fareedi and  gave suggestions to correct the differences in the text.
Khawaja Tahir Mehmood Koreja published “Dewan-e-Fareed Ba mutabic qalmi Nuskha Hay-e-Qadeem. In 2002 with the help of various manuscripts. In which four hundred controversial points of Dewan-e-Fareed were corrected. In the same way, in 2014, Mujahid Jatoi published Dewan-e-Fareed (Bil tehqeeq) with the help of thirty manuscripts.
In the 120-year journey of editing Kalam-e-Fareed, we now have a much better Kalam-e-Fareed and it can be hoped that in the next few years, there will be a version of Kalam-e-Fareed whose text is also standard and the honorable acceptance is general and special. It will surely exist.
Impact of Phonemic Transcription on Learners’ English Spelling: A Segmental Study
Authors: Sarwat Rabia , Mahmood Arshad , Uzair Muhammad
Published: April 2024

Acquiring sufficient proficiency in English pronunciation is a strenuous task for EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners. Among other reasons, one primary reason is the lack of correspondence between the sounds and letters of the English language which makes English pronunciation a hard task for foreign learners. To reduce this discrepancy of sounds and spellings in order to improve the pronunciation of language learners, phonemic transcription is used quite widely by EFL/ESL teachers across the world. The phonetic/phonemic transcription is based on the internationally recognized symbols commonly referred to as IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) offered by IPA (International Phonetic Association). Despite the immense usefulness of phonemic transcription, it has the potential to negatively affect learners’ normal English spellings.  The present research aimed to explore the impact of continuous phonemic transcription on English spellings of EFL learners through a Pre experimental research design. The study participants were the students of Diploma level in the Functional Courses Department, National University of Modern Languages (henceforth NUML). A range of phonemic passages was used as a research tool to explore the impact of sounds on spellings and Cook’s classification of spelling errors was adapted as a model for the categorization of spelling errors. Findings of the study reveal various categories of sound substitution errors under the impact of consonants, vowels, and diphthongs. With continuous practice of converting phonemic transcription into normal English spelling/orthography, certain consonantal sounds like /ð/, /?/, /,/s/, /k/, /z/, /w/ and vowel sounds like /i:/, /i/, /æ/, /?/, /?/, /?/, /?/ show the Mother Tongue(MT) impact of sounds on spellings. While in the case of diphthongs, only two sounds /a?/, and /e?/ exhibit the impact of sounds on spellings.

This study is an attempt to explore that discourse is a practice of social patterns and is not freely produced and that how culture embedded in a discourse produces power relations. The study is based on a theoretical framework of Cultural Approach to CDA (CCDA) (Nuri, 2012), a new aspect of CDA. The researchers analyse the text of novel Exit West(2017) focusing on three variables: Gender, Racial Discrimination, and External and Internal patterns of the human mind. CCDA(2012) focusesdiscourse as a byproduct of social practices and these practices are shaped by the surrounding culture. In the analysis, our main focus is on analysis of language of the society, the meanings of the language used, and in what sense they are used by the users. The researchers concentrate on figurative language and other linguistic devices used by the writer in the selected text. By keeping in view the research questions, the data comprises on 12 passages from the novel Exit West. These twelve passages are analyzed at three levels: description of the text, socio-cultural interpretation and analysis of the linguistic choices. By focusing on theresearch variables, the researcher has find out the cultural codes that are working behind the text. The research is very significant as this study will open up the way for CCDA application on other similar literary works. It is also significant as this novel is not yet explored from the perspective of CCDA.

Authors: Muhammad Rehan , Shahid Choudhry , Gurmani Taimoor A.A.
Published: April 2024

The primary purpose of this research was to investigate the factors affecting communicative approach implementation at the tertiary level as a methodology to teach and learn English as a second language. Communicative language teaching is the most widely used pedagogical approach for teaching foreign languages in developed countries (CLT). Pakistan's educational system may be divided into two main categories: English and Urdu medium. In this study, both literature and situational analysis were employed. Research papers published from 2015 to 2022 were part of the study for critical analysis. Teachers in Pakistan should consider societal aspects and cultural elements and adapt the CLT accordingly. Teachers of English in Pakistani public and private institutions are asked to adapt CLT methodologies to local conditions in light of a paradigm for teaching English using conventional methods. Students may find it easier to participate in the teaching process and accept responsibility for their studies if they are taught using this approach, which also has the potential to improve how English is currently taught in public and private institutions.

PINE BARK RATIO IN SUBSTRATE FOR CITRUS ROOTSTOCK NURSERY PRODUCTION
Authors: Pacheco-Chacón Andrea Guadalupe , Villegas-Monter Ángel , Trejo-Téllez Libia Iris , Zavaleta-Mancera Hilda Araceli , Calderón-Zavala Guillermo
Published: April 2024

Fruit tree cultivation requires rootstocks that are resistant to both biotic and abiotic stresses. The container size and substrate used are essential components in their development. Despite this, there are few studies on the impact of substrates on plant development in citrus trees under nursery conditions. This study aimed to assess the effects of three different ratios of pine bark in the substrate of three developing citrus rootstocks in a protected environment (greenhouse). The study conducted at the Cazones Nursery in Cazones de Herrera, Veracruz, Mexico, hypothesized that an increase in bark proportion would lead to a rise in the physical and chemical characteristics of the substrate and the development of the three rootstocks. The study utilized a completely randomized design with a factorial arrangement (A × B). Factor A (rootstock) had three levels: Citrus aurantium L. (Sour Orange), C. volkameriana Pasq. (Volkamer Lemon), and C. sinensis L. × Poncirus trifoliata L. (Citrage C-35). Factor B (substrate) had four levels (0, 10, 20, and 30 % pine bark), resulting in 12 treatments with 20 repetitions each. The physical and chemical characteristics of the substrates were determined, and the plant height and stem diameter were measured. Pine bark positively affected the apparent and real densities, total porosity, electrical conductivity, and cation exchange capacity. The growth dynamics of the three rootstocks were greater during the second and third months after grafting. When grown in substrates with a total porosity of 46–54 %, Volkamer Lemon, Citrage C-35, and Sour Orange rootstocks reached a plant height of 124.1, 110.5, and 84.5 cm, respectively; the stem diameter reached 6.9 mm. Porosity and cation exchange capacity increased when pine bark was added to the substrates. By evaluating the substrates and managing them proportionally, it is possible to obtain plants suitable for grafting (with 5 to 6 mm of stem) within four months after transplanting. This results in less time spent in the nursery and reduced costs.

Authors: Saavedra-Romero Luz de Lourdes , Alvarado-Rosales Dionicio
Published: April 2024

Knowledge of the health condition of urban trees is fundamental for making decisions regarding management and resource allocation. The objective of this study was to determine the current health status of the trees at the National Institute of Astrophysics, Optics, and Electronics (INAOE) in San Andres Cholula, Mexico. Five health indicators previously used in urban forests were assessed. The structure and diversity indicator indicated the existence of 2210 trees, mostly (58.8 %) of small size (< 20 cm average diameter at breast height), 20 botanical families, and 32 tree species. The crown condition and its variables indicated high foliage transparency (> 40 %) in some of its species and low percentages of dieback. Live crown ratio and crown density were moderate in eight and six species, respectively. The tree damage indicator showed the existence of 44 damaging agents in 956 trees (43.3 % of the total), highlighting the ball moss (Tillandsia recurvata), the felt fungus of evergreen ash (Septobasidium sp.) associated with an armored scale, the same fungus also affecting white cedar (Hesperocyparis lusitanica) in association with another scale (a new record), and two bark beetles, Hylesinus aztecus in evergreen ash, and Phloesinus sp. in white cedar. Regarding the mortality indicator, 75 trees (3.3 %) were recorded. Finally, the soil condition indicated that the pH was close to neutral, with electrical conductivity values above 2 dS m-1 and a low beneficial mycoflora population. All these factors, together with the imbalance in tree diversity, high planting density, compacted soils, and the presence of risky trees, are negatively affecting the health of INAOE’s tree community.

GDP in the financial service sector declined from 4.49% in the second quarter of 2019 to 1.03% in the second quarter of 2020 with the amount of decline about -77.06% (BPS, 2020). Therefore, banking companies need to do hedging in order to mitigate the risk. This study was quantitative and had a Systematic Literature Review. Moreover, the population was banking companies that had complete financial statements during 2018-2022 and were listed on IDX. Furthermore, the data were secondary and library research. The data analysis technique used discriminant analysis and descriptive analysis. Additionally, the statistical test results showed that liquidity, exchange rate, and firm size of banking companies did not affect hedging decisions. However, profitability which was referred to as ROA affected hedging decisions. It meant the function of discriminant showed that ROA had a strong divide in the companies' tendency of hedging. As a suggestion, the next researcher needed to use other variables outside the study with different years of observation and analysis models; in order to have optimal output

Demand for natural sand in concrete mixing is increasing day by day. So, to reduce the utilization of natural resources usage of the industrial soil waste or secondary materials for the production of cement and concrete is encouraged in the field of construction.  One of the secondary materials and by product of steel manufacturing industries is the Grounded Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS). In this work it is investigated that the possibility of utilizing GGBS in cement concrete as a partial substitute for sand, for reducing the environmental problems related to the fine aggregate mining and waste disposal of slag. In this work, the percentage of GGBS replacement is 0,5,10 and 15% to natural sand for the standard w/c ratio of 0.4 is considered. In this work, the influence of above said percentages of GGBS in concrete on compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength at 28 days curing period were studied. The compressive, flexural and split tensile strengths are compared with the conventional concrete. The results show that the compressive strength of 15% GGBS is 18.36% higher than the conventional concrete, whereas the split tensile and flexural strengths are slightly lesser than the conventional concrete.
