Authors: O Okwakpam, I. , C Onugha, A.
Published: January 2025

The study examined crude oil exploration activities and particulate matter pollutants concentration in selected Rivers East and Rivers South-East communities, Rivers State. The study adopted the completely randomized block design (CRBD). Ambient air quality readings were taken in-situ in four (4) stations (two each from each of the communities) using the Aero Qual 500 Series (Gas Monitor), GT 321 Particulate Metre, Automated Global Position System (GPS), and Extech Meteorology Metre, While mean and clustered column chart was used to analyze the data. The study revealed the concentrations of 694 ppm and 613 ppm for CO2 in Bodo and Igwuruta communities respectively which were higher than the WHO daily approved limit of 462 ppm. The study further revealed that the higher concentration of particulate matter pollutants (PMPs) like (NO2 = 0.098 μg/m3, O3 = 0.04 μg/m3, So2 = 0.00 μg/m3, H2S = 0.01 μg/m3, CH4 =0 μg/m3, CO = 0.5 μg/m3, NH3 =0.3 μg/m3, Pm 2.5 = 0.022 μg/m3, Pm 10 = 0.018 μg/m3, temperature = 34.6 oC) obtained at the Bodo artisanal refining sites and that obtained at the Igwuruts flow station were all still within the WHO daily approved limits for the specific PMPs. Also, the excessive concentration of CO2 accentuates the presence of soot that exacerbates the discolouration of vegetation as well as poor air quality, residents’ high susceptibility to skin diseases, cancer and respiratory ailments, intense heat, respiratory complications like cough, carthar, etc. The study recommended amongst others that more trees should be planted to absorb the excess CO2 that accentuates the buildup of soot that damage the built environment; destroy car windshield, roof surfaces, house floors and windows and also, causing health risk of rashes, aging, asthma, bronchitis on the residents around the environs of the Agbada/Igwuruta flow station and Bodo artisanal refining site.

Authors: Ahmed Dr. Iqbal , Paul Dr. Lovendu Mohon , Chowdhury Dr. Nilanjana
Published: January 2025

Background: Acne Conglobata (AC) is a rare and severe form of nodulocystic acne, primarily affecting adolescents and young adults. Characterized by deep nodules, abscesses, and interconnected sinus tracts, AC often leads to significant scarring and psychological distress. Despite its rarity, it presents a unique challenge in resource-limited settings like Bangladesh, where awareness and specialized dermatological care are insufficient. The multifactorial etiology includes hormonal imbalances, genetic predisposition, and environmental factors, complicating both diagnosis and treatment. Objective: This study aims to provide comprehensive insights into the clinical characteristics, risk factors, comorbidities, and treatment outcomes of Acne Conglobata in Bangladesh, with a focus on emerging therapeutic modalities. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted at a tertiary hospital in Dhaka, Bangladesh, from January to December 2024. A total of 50 patients diagnosed with Acne Conglobata were included, with data collected through clinical evaluations, patient interviews, and medical records. Descriptive statistics were employed to analyze demographic variables, risk factors, comorbidities, and treatment outcomes. Results: The majority of patients were aged 17-30 years, with a higher prevalence in males (70%). Hormonal imbalances (especially during puberty) and a family history of acne were the most common risk factors. Comorbidities such as depression/anxiety (40%), obesity (30%), and insulin resistance (20%) were prevalent. Treatment regimens primarily involved oral isotretinoin (80%), oral antibiotics (60%), and steroids (50%). Scar revision procedures were used in 30% of cases. Conclusion: Acne Conglobata significantly impacts young adults in Bangladesh, with genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors playing key roles in its pathogenesis. Depression, obesity, and insulin resistance were common comorbidities. Oral isotretinoin remains the most effective treatment, but a multimodal approach, including psychological support and scar revision, is essential. This study highlights the need for increased awareness and access to advanced therapies, especially in resource-limited settings like Bangladesh.

Published: January 2025

This study investigated the effects of various mulching conditions and irrigation techniques on the yield of Texas Grano onions (Allium cepa), a key crop for smallholder farmers in Zimbabwe. The primary objective was to identify optimal practices that enhance productivity, water productivity (WP), and water use efficiency (WUE) in onion cultivation. Four mulching treatments were evaluated: control (no mulch), maize residue, soybean trash, and grass. Concurrently, three irrigation methods were assessed: drip irrigation with Chameleon sensors for real-time moisture monitoring, drip irrigation without sensors, and traditional furrow irrigation. A 3 × 4 factorial split-plot design was employed within a randomized complete block design (RCBD) framework, with three replications. The main plots were allocated for irrigation techniques, while the sub-plots comprised the mulching treatments, including a control. A comprehensive cost-benefit analysis evaluated the economic viability of each treatment. Results indicated that combining drip irrigation with Chameleon sensors and maize residue mulch significantly increased both yields and economic returns. These findings highlight the advantages of adopting precision agricultural practices, particularly real-time moisture monitoring, to improve WP and WUE while enhancing resource utilization, thereby increasing system resilience. To fully harness these benefits, farmers should be capacitated and empowered through training on precision irrigation and mulching techniques via demonstration plots and farmer field schools (FFS). Establishing innovation hubs within irrigation schemes is recommended to foster resource sharing and technology adoption, improving productivity and market access for high-value crops. Policymakers must prioritize support for these initiatives to promote sustainable agricultural practices.

Thus, in order to exercise public authority, the administrative body increasingly uses the administrative contract, which is in the form of a civil-legal contract concluded with a natural or legal person, as well as with another administrative body.
The paper presents the features of the use of administrative contracts in various areas of public administration. In addition, the essence, types and a number of indicators of the administrative contract are discussed and analyzed, which are an important lever for the correct determination of the legal nature of the contract.
And the fact that the issues of the possibility of crossing the sharp line of separation of public and private law and the formation of relevant criteria are actively discussed in scientific circles significantly indicates the relevance of the work.

Introduction: Gastrointestinal Surgeons during dissection of infra-pancreatic portion of Superior Mesenteric Vein(SMV) encounter venous tributaries from head of pancreas, distal stomach and right colon draining separately or by forming Gastrocolic Trunk of Henle(GTH). Injury to these fragile veins may lead to profuse bleeding, increase operative-time and most importantly poor postoperative outcome. Meticulous dissection of this area is imperative for which detailed anatomical knowledge is essential.
Methods: Our study is a prospective observational study done over a period of 18 months from August 2022 to January 2024 among the patients who underwent pancreatic, gastric and right colonic surgery which mandated dissection of infra-pancreatic portion of SMV. Meticulous dissection of this area was done and prevalence of GTH and its variations were identified and classifiedaccording to proposed classifications.
Results: Among the forty-eight patients included in the study during the study period, GTH was present in thirty-seven(77.1%) patients. On the basis of classification proposed by Lange et al. GPCT type of GTH was present in nineteen(51.35%), GPT type in eleven(29.72%) patients and GCT type inseven(18.92%) patients. On the basis of Miyazawa classification eleven(29.73%) patients had Type 0 GTH, seventeen(45.95%) patients had Type 1 GTH, seven(18.92%) patients had Type 2 GTH and two(5.4%) patients had Type 3 GTH. On basis of Negoi classification, eight(21.62%) patients had Type 1 GTH, eleven(29.73%) patients had Type 2 GTH, four(10.81%) patients had Type 3 GTH,nine(24.32%) patients had Type 4 GTH, two(5.4%) patients had Type 5 GTH and three (8.1%) patients had Type 6 GTH.
Conclusion: Understanding the anatomy of GTH is imperative for surgeons performing gastric, pancreatic and right colonic surgery. The prevalence of GTH and its subtypes is highly variable. Further studies are needed to understand its anatomy.

The Covid-19 pandemic that hit the world crippled the education system and is no exception for the early childhood education system in Malaysia. Teachers are always thinking of the best way to ensure that teaching and learning sessions are continuous to ensure that preschoolers do not lag behind like Google Meet. This study aims to look at parents’ perceptions of student achievement throughout the Teaching and Learning at Home (PdPR). This study uses a quantitative survey design. A total of 67 parents of kindergarten consisting of 33 for five years old students and 34 for six years old students involved in this study. The findings of the study show that parents' perception of student achievement throughout PdPR for six-year-old students (m=30.22, sp=7.935) is higher than for five-year-old students (m=29.57, sp=6.502). Findings also found that there is a no significant relationship between five-year-old students and six-year-old students (sig=0.702). The implications of this study show that parental involvement affects student achievement throughout PdPR and shows a significant difference compared to face-to-face learning.
CVC Malay Closed Syllabic Spelling Techniques Regressively (Back to Front): An Analysis of Malay syllabication theory
Authors: Kasim Mohamad Rozi
Published: January 2025

This study is a study related to the technique of spelling closed syllables in Malay (KVK). The objective of this study is to describe the technique of spelling closed syllables regressively (from back to front) by using Malay syllabification theory. The research method used in this study is a qualitative method that using the Malay syllabification theory modified from Goldsmith's syllabification theory (2011). The qualitative study used in this study is a bibliographic method, which involves reading written materials related to Goldsmith's (2011) syllabification theory and its application to Malay syllables. The findings of this study are an explanation related to the technique of spelling closed syllables (KVK) in Malay language. This technique of spelling closed syllables begins with the sounding of phonemes or letters that follow the International Phonetic Alphabets (IPA) phoneme sound and then the process of spelling closed syllables regressively, that is from right to left. This spelling process is that the vowel in the nucleus position needs to be combined with the consonant in the coda position to form a rhyming sound (VK). In the next step, the consonant in the onset position will be combined with the previous rhyme sound to produce the sound of the closed syllable KVK. In conclusion, this study is expected to be able to make it easier for teachers to teach pupils or children about closed syllables in Malay language.

Pendekatan STEM merupakan paradigma penting dalam pendidikan abad ke-21. Guru prasekolah perlu mempunyai kesediaan mengajar Matematik Awal berasaskan STEM. Kajian ini menentukan tahap kesediaan guru dan pengaruh pengetahuan mengajar, minat mengajar dan sikap mengajar terhadap kesediaan mengajar Matematik Awal berasaskan STEM. Kajian deskriptif dan kuantitatif ini menggunakan 253 orang guru prasekolah yang dipilih menggunakan kaedah persampelan rawak berstrata daripada lima daerah di negeri Sabah iaitu Sandakan, Telupid, Tuaran, Ranau, dan Penampang. Data daripada soal selidik dianalisis menggunakan pendekatan PLS-SEM. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan tahap pengetahuan dan kesediaan mengajar yang tinggi tetapi minat dan sikap mengajar yang sederhana. Selain itu, pengetahuan dan minat mempunyai hubungan positif dan signifikan dengan sikap manakala sikap pula mempunyai hubungan positif dan signifikan dengan kesediaan mengajar. Sikap mengantara hubungan pengetahuan dan minat dengan kesediaan mengajar secara signifikan. Model kajian mempunyai ketepatan peramalan sebanyak 39.2% untuk menerangkan pengaruh pengetahuan dan minat terhadap sikap manakala gabungan pengaruh pengetahuan, minat dan sikap mempunyai ketepatan peramalan kesediaan mengajar sebanyak 13.3%. Pengetahuan mempunyai saiz kesan besar manakala saiz kesan minat terhadap sikap adalah kecil. Saiz kesan sikap terhadap kesediaan mengajar juga kecil. Dapatan kajian menekankan kepentingan meningkatkan pengetahuan dan mengekalkan minat tinggi dan sikap positif guru dengan pelaksanaan pelbagai usaha di prasekolah seperti sokongan kolaboratif dan teknikal, serta pengiktirafan peranan guru prasekolah dalam pelaksanaan pendidikan STEM. Kajian selanjutnnya perlu menyiasat pengaruh faktor-faktor lain seperti sokongan untuk guru, efikasi kendiri dalam teknologi pengajaran dan sebagainya agar model peramalan kesediaan mengajar dapat diperkukuhkan lagi.
