This study uses a type of qualitative research with a descriptive approach. The data sources used are primary and secondary data. The technique for determining informants in this study uses purposive sampling. This study uses the theory of measuring the performance of public organizations according to Agus Dwiyanto (2017). The results of the study show that the performance of the Goods and Services Procurement Unit in improving e-government through the local MSME e-catalog in Badung Regency is quite good, which in productivity indicators is not optimal, there is a need for optimization of the number of human resources and cooperation. Service quality indicators are not optimal because there is still a lack of technical guidance provided to providers. The responsiveness indicator can be said to be optimal. Responsibility indicators can be said to be optimal. Accountability indicators can be said to be quite optimal. Therefore, the author recommends providing technical guidance to providers, collaborating with various parties, optimizing existing human resources through training and improving employee skills, and continuing to monitor and evaluate periodically.

Authors: Wu Qian , Khatibi Ali , Tham Jacquline
Published: February 2025

As a pillar industry that promotes economic development, the construction industry is currently experiencing rapid development and has received strong support from the country and the government. The construction industry faces the challenge of cost overruns, which is a worldwide phenomenon. Cost overruns are a very common phenomenon that is related to almost all projects in the construction industry. Cost overruns refer to the difference between the final actual cost at the completion of a construction project and the contract amount agreed upon by the owner and the contractor when the contract is signed. Cost overruns are considered to be a clear sign of project failure. In construction projects, it is a common phenomenon that the budget exceeds the estimated cost and the settlement exceeds the budget. This paper focuses on the main factors that affect the cost overrun of construction projects to provide a reference for the actual situation.
Second Nature: The No-gap Theory between the Mind and the World
Authors: Karastergiou Dr. Anestis
Published: February 2025

The aim of this paper is to discuss McDowell’s concept of second nature and how the philosopher tries to formulate a theory negating the gap between the mind and the world. This concept will be understood as emerging from three basic concepts, self-activity, Bildung, and hexis, and governed by his view of language. However, this paper does not focus on his view of language, but on the conception of second nature and how important it is in his philosophical endeavor to break the philosophical tradition of the mind-world dichotomy. After an initial presentation of his thought and the scope of his goal, a brief presentation of the critique he received follows with the aim to better understand his conceptual formulation. The significance of the philosophical problem McDowell addresses is stressed in this paper attempting to provide the grounds for reimagining a philosophical view of the world without the epistemological gap between the mind and the world.

Objective
To see the various dermatological manifestations in case of dengue fever.
Methods
This cross-sectional study was conducted in a hospital setting over a span of 12 months, specifically from June 2022 to June 2023. The study focused on 150 cases of dengue fever between the age range of 16 months to 65 years, who exhibited symptoms and signs indicative of dengue fever. The febrile illness was accompanied by laboratory findings of progressive thrombocytopenia, elevated hepatic transaminase levels, and the presence of detectable dengue IgM and virus-expressed soluble main-structural protein (NSI). These findings were determined using the Enzyme Linked Immune Sorbent Assay (ELISA) method, specifically the Panbio Dengue Duo-Cassette. Other serologic tests yielded negative results, and blood cultures were found to be sterile. The diagnosis of dengue fever (DF) was confirmed through seroconversion of convalescent sera. The collected data were entered into the computer and analyzed by using SPSS (version 20.1) Results: Among the sample of 150 patients, it was observed that 97 individuals (64.67%) were identified as males, while the remaining 53 individuals (35.33%) were identified as girls. The average age of the patients was 35.20 years. Out of the total sample size of 150 patients, 45 individuals (30%) exhibited no observable skin findings, while 105 patients (70%) presented with skin abnormalities. The most often observed skin manifestation was pruritus, which was present in 35 patients (44.47%). This was followed by facial flushing, which was reported in 19 patients (24.37%). petechial rash and burning sensation were observed in 7 (8.97%) and 10 (12.82%) of the patients). Of the observed mucosal abnormalities, ocular involvement was the most prevalent, observed in six patients, accounting for 22.22% of the total sample.
Conclusion
The presence of cutaneous and mucosal symptoms constitutes a significant aspect of dengue fever. These findings additionally contribute to the evaluation of illness progression. The subject matter under consideration pertains to the medical condition known as dengue fever, with a specific focus on its cutaneous manifestations.

Research has been conducted to investigate the impact of pH and stirring on the magnetic properties of γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles derived from iron sand using the co-precipitation method. The objective of this study was to synthesize γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles and examine how pH and stirring affect their size and properties. The co-precipitation method involved mixing iron sand with HCl as a solvent and NH4OH as a precipitator. The experimental setup included variations in pH, specifically pH 10 and pH 12, as well as stirring speeds of 600 rpm and 700 rpm. The synthesized maghemite nanoparticles were characterized using XRD (X-Ray Diffraction), SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope), and VSM (Vibrating Sample Magnetometer) techniques. XRD analysis revealed that the particle size at 600 rpm under pH 10 was 52.085 nm, whereas at 700 rpm under pH 12 it was 47.821 nm. The VSM characterization results demonstrated a remanent magnetization of 25.5 emu/gr, a coercivity field of -0.01 Tesla, and a saturation magnetization of 52.45 emu/gr. This study confirmed that the maghemite nanoparticles produced exhibited ferromagnetic properties.

Published: February 2025

The human secondary sex ratio is the male-to-female ratio at birth. Studies have shown that due to some factors, there has been deviation towards one sex in different populations. There has been no report on the sex ratio at birth (SRB) from Kogi State, North-Central Nigeria. We conducted a retrospective study on the SRB in the three geopolitical zones of Kogi State covering six federal and state hospitals, and factors that might have influenced the process. Data on childbirth from 1991 to 2020 collected from the Federal Medical Centre Lokoja, General Hospital Mopa-Muro, Zonal Hospital Kabba, Specialist Hospital Obangede, Zonal Hospital Okene, and Prince Audu Abubakar University Teaching Hospital Anyigba were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The annual SRB was 98.1:100, 104.6:100, 101.5:100, 108.3:100, 102.2:100, and 104.9:100 for the six hospitals, respectively. The pooled data had an SRB of 100.7:100 for Kogi State indicating slightly more male than female births. There was no significant difference (p>0.05) between the variations in sex ratio. The SRB might have been influenced by the preference for male children, the use of oral contraceptives, family size, urbanization, and socioeconomic factors.

Published: February 2025

This study evaluated Ocimum gratissimum and Rhoicissus tridentata for their In vitro antimalarial activity and safety. The plant samples collected from Keiyo South in Kenya were processed and their compounds were extracted using inorganic and organic solvents. Phytochemical screening, antiplasmodial bioassays, cytotoxicity tests, and statistical analyses were conducted to validate and compare the efficacies of the two plant used traditionally in treatment of malaria in Kenya. O. gratissimum extracts showed strong inhibition and low toxicity, with methanol as the most effective solvent. Methanol and water solvents extracts demonstrated significant In vitro antiplasmodial activity with inhibition rates of 70.7% and 67.6%, respectively compared to the negative control, whereas R. tridentata extracts, especially those of hexane, had a lower inhibition rate of 36.1%. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of O. gratissimum extracts was slightly higher than that of the standard antimalarial drug, Artemether-Lumefantrine indicating good antimalarial potency at the slightly higher dose. Cytotoxicity tests revealed that the methanol and water extracts of the two plants extracts were less toxic compared to hexane and dichloromethane solvents extracts. Phytochemical analysis found higher flavonoid content in O. gratissimum and higher carotenoid levels in R. tridentata. Methanol proved to be the most effective solvent, extracting more bioactive compounds than hexane and dichloromethane. The study highlights O. gratissimum as a promising antimalarial candidate and suggests that further optimization is needed to enhance its In vivo efficacy. The findings advocate for continued research into solvent selection, plant part efficacy, and phytochemical analysis to refine and potentially develop these plant extracts into effective therapeutic agents against malaria.

Published: February 2025

En este artículo se estudian las ventajas e inconvenientes de la adopción de reglas fiscales frente a la aplicación de una política fiscal discrecional. El análisis parte de la identificación de los fines principales de la política fiscal y examina en qué medida las reglas fiscales favorecen la consecución de esos fines, centrándose fundamentalmente en la estabilización de las fluctuaciones cíclicas. Se analiza el grado de efectividad de la política fiscal para reducir las oscilaciones del ciclo económico, el surgimiento de sesgos sistemáticos indeseados y otros aspectos institucionales inherentes a la aplicación de una política fiscal discrecional, así como los efectos expansivos de una política fiscal restrictiva. Sobre esa base, se presentan algunas de las principales ventajas de la introducción de reglas fiscales que limiten la actuación discrecional de la política fiscal y se señalan las críticas más destacadas que recibe este instrumento en la actualidad, con especial atención a la interacción existente entre reglas fiscales y el control de las fluctuaciones cíclicas. Se efectúa también un repaso somero a la experiencia de EE.UU. en la aplicación de reglas fiscales, lo que permite ilustrar algunos de los aspectos tratados teóricamente y extraer algunas lecciones para el diseño y aplicación de las reglas fiscales en el futuro.

O carcinoma de células renais (CCR) é frequentemente diagnosticado incidentalmente devido ao aumento da utilização de exames de imagem, como a ultrassonografia e a tomografia computadorizada. A detecção precoce de massas renais, muitas vezes assintomáticas, é essencial para um manejo eficaz. Sintomas como dor no flanco, hematúria e perda de peso podem ocorrer, mas são pouco comuns, o que leva a um diagnóstico em estágios mais avançados em muitos pacientes. As modalidades de imagem, especialmente a tomografia e a ressonância magnética, desempenham papel fundamental na caracterização e estadiamento da doença, enquanto a biópsia renal é utilizada de forma seletiva. As abordagens atuais permitem a detecção precoce e um tratamento mais direcionado, contribuindo para melhores resultados clínicos.

Social Construction of Emotional Labour: An Exploratory Study of Nurses Working in Hospitals in Lucknow City
Authors:   University of Lucknow, Trivedi Shivangi , Bhartiya Dr.Anoop Kumar ,   University of Lucknow
Published: February 2025

A feminist Arlie Hochschild defines emotional labour in her book “The Managed Heart” as regulating or managing emotional expressions with others as a part of one's professional work. Pam Smith in her book “The Emotional Labour of Nursing Revisited: Can Nurses Still Care” focuses on the significance of emotional labour with modern healthcare practice. She particularly emphasises on the challenges that nurses have to face emotionally with their profession precisely with death & dying on the ward. Catherine Theodosius in her book “Emotional Labour in Health Care: The Unmanaged Heart of Nursing” again reckons the sociological idea of Arlie Hochschild’s emotional labour & says that emotional labour is mainly found in places in the nursing profession that are not easily recognisable. She goes ahead giving a suggestion that the nursing profession has a vital and impeccable responsibility to include emotional labour as emotional labour is fundamentally related to personal and social identity. In this era where everything is so fast paced, automated & where health care is predominantly guided by biomedical & clinical models of health, this research paper delves into understanding of whether there is a room for emotional labour. Nurses are supposed to have greater awareness about emotional labour as the professional competence of nursing demands detachment so that patients can be treated in a more prolific way. Data was collected through Google forms with 32 nurses of two government & two private hospitals. This paper picks up the idea of emotional labour & nursing & talks about narratives of nurses, barriers related to gender & profession which includes emotional labour in health, interrelation of gender & emotional labour, linkage between emotional labour & psychological capital etc.

The study adopt a mixed-methods research design, combining quantitative and qualitative approaches to provide a balanced and comprehensive analysis. The target population for this study consists of rice farmers participating in the Anchor Borrower Program in the State. A sample size of 133 participants was determined using Yamane’s formula for finite population: To achieve robust and reliable findings, both primary and secondary data sources were used: The primary data was collected through structured questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. Both quantitative and qualitative data analysis techniques were employed: Descriptive Statistics, describe participants’ demographics and responses to key variables, such as training effectiveness, financial literacy, and market access. Inferential Statistics, to test the relationships between entrepreneurship training and outcomes like productivity and income. While, correlation analysis and multiple regression were employed to assess the impact of training intensity, frequency, and content on financial literacy and productivity outcomes. Data from interview was transcribed and analyzed using NVivo software, focusing on recurrent themes related to skill acquisition, challenges in implementing training, and perceived value. The findings highlighted significant improvements across several key areas: The average yield increased by 53.33%, from 1.5 tons/hectare before the training to 2.3 tons/hectare after the training. This improvement was attributed to better farming techniques, optimal resource use, and improved pest control methods. Farmers’ monthly income rose by 50%, from ₦50,000 to ₦75,000. Additionally, return on investment increased by 45%, operating costs decreased by 20%, and profit margins improved by 35%. The study concludes that, entrepreneurship training has a transformative impact on productivity, financial performance, and market access of smallholder farmers. However, the study also underscores the systemic challenges—such as financial constraints and infrastructural inadequacies—that hinder the full realization of training benefits. Addressing these barriers is critical for sustaining the positive outcomes observed. It is recommended that, Collaborations between government, private sector players, and development organizations can enhance technical support, improve input supply chains, and expand market access.

В данном исследовании изучается, влияют ли женщины-руководители (CEO) на решения компаний инвестировать в исследования и разработки (R&D) в странах с низким и средним уровнем дохода (LMICs). Используя набор данных, включающий 49 946 наблюдений на уровне фирм из Обзора предприятий Всемирного банка (WBES) за период с 2010 по 2022 год, мы применяем логистическую регрессию для оценки вероятности участия в НИОКР. Результаты показывают, что женщины-руководители значительно повышают вероятность того, что компания будет заниматься НИОКР, даже после контроля размера, иностранной собственности, экспортной ориентации и отраслевых факторов. Более крупные компании и компании с иностранной собственностью также демонстрируют более высокую склонность к НИОКР, что говорит о том, что доступность ресурсов и глобальные сети способствуют инновациям. И наоборот, фирмы, в которых владельцами являются исключительно мужчины, демонстрируют несколько меньшую вероятность инвестирования в НИОКР, что подчеркивает, как гендерный состав руководства и владельцев может совместно формировать стратегические решения. Полученные результаты опровергают предположения о повышенном неприятии риска среди женщин-руководителей и подчеркивают, что гендерное разнообразие в высшем руководстве может служить стратегическим катализатором инноваций. Эти выводы имеют важное значение для политики и практики в странах с низким уровнем доходов, указывая на то, что укрепление лидерства женщин и усиление институциональной поддержки - например, доступа к финансированию и экспортным возможностям - может повысить инновационный потенциал компаний и способствовать устойчивому экономическому росту.

Background: Visual field sensitivity variations associated with refractive errors in young adults remain inadequately characterized, particularly in relation to aging and regional differences. While previous studies have focused on elderly populations, limited data exist on how myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism affect visual field sensitivity in individuals aged 18 to 30 years. Understanding these variations is crucial for refining clinical assessment strategies and optimizing refractive error management to ensure optimal visual function.
Objective: To evaluate visual field sensitivity patterns in young adults with different refractive errors and assess the relationship between age, refractive status, and regional variations in visual field sensitivity.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 58 participants, including 26 myopic, 2 hyperopic, and 30 astigmatic individuals aged 18–30 years. Participants underwent refractive assessment using an auto-refractometer, followed by subjective refraction with a trial frame. Visual acuity was measured using the Snellen chart, and visual field sensitivity was analyzed using Humphrey perimetry. Sensitivity deviations were recorded for the superior, inferior, nasal, and temporal quadrants in both eyes, with and without refractive correction.
Results: In myopic individuals, the superior field remained stable (-0.25 to -3.75 D), while the inferior field showed age-related declines (-0.3 dB at -1.75 D, -0.5 dB at -3.25 D, -0.75 dB at -2.0 D). Nasal deviations ranged from -0.05 dB to -1.25 dB, with temporal sensitivity declining by -0.5 dB at -4.0 D in non-corrected individuals. Hyperopic participants exhibited increased sensitivity in the superior (+1.5 to +2.6 dB), inferior (+2.0 dB), nasal (+1.0 to +1.5 dB), and temporal (+2.0 to +3.0 dB) fields. Astigmatism showed no superior field changes but demonstrated nasal deviations (-0.7 to -1.0 dB) and temporal reductions (-0.09 to -0.7 dB) in the right eye. The left eye exhibited inferior (-0.4 to -1.0 dB), nasal (-0.2 to -1.0 dB), and temporal (-0.3 to -1.0 dB) deviations.
Conclusion: Visual field sensitivity in young adults varies significantly based on refractive error type and correction status. Myopia exhibited age-related declines, hyperopia showed enhanced sensitivity, and astigmatism demonstrated regional variations. These findings highlight the need for individualized approaches in clinical refractive management.
The 'Three Moments of Art' and Truth-Event: Reflections on Muktibodhian Creative-Process
Authors: Bali Anup Kumar
Published: February 2025

This paper tries to engage the question of singularity in creative-process of poetry which challenges the dichotomous understanding of form and content. It argues that the self-struggle of Muktibodh is a continuous quest of singularities of reality against the hegemonic ideological reality. It intends to reflect upon the processuality of self-struggle in the context of Muktibodhian critical thinking about creative-process of poetry which allows the possibility to engage and elucidate the convergence and divergence between Alain Badiou’s ‘Truth-Event’ and Foucault’s ‘ascesis’ on one hand and Lacanian Marxist I. Parker’s conception of ‘revolutions in subjectivity’ and Alain Badiou’s ‘subjectivity without a subject’ on the other.
"Blood Draws Flies": Arab-Western Entanglement in Sulayman Al-Bassam's Cross-Cultural Hamlet
Authors: Stafford-Mills Yvonne
Published: February 2025

Shakespeare’s plays have a long history of global adaptation and appropriation. Rather than being viewed as a means of cultural domination, Shakespeare has been championed by colonized and post-colonial nations as a means of asserting a unique cultural identity by establishing contemporary and globally recognized theatres. In the Middle East, this appropriation has long been a political one, as Shakespeare’s themes, especially those within his tragedies and histories, have been readily recognized as avenues for political criticism within repressive regimes. Hamlet in particular has been viewed as a powerful commentary on political corruption and despotism, and has a long history of adaptation in Middle Eastern nations. In recent years, cross-cultural adaptation of Shakespeare has become an affective and effective means of negotiating the East/West post-colonial conflict. After the events of 9/11, the East/West conflict reached a contemporary pinnacle that opened the way for a new adaptation of Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Sulayman Al-Bassam’s The Al-Hamlet Summit. Through his Summit, Al-Bassam implicates both Eastern and Western forces in the deterioration of a fictional Middle Eastern nation. With a Saddam-esque Claudius and a radicalized Hamlet, Al-Bassam’s play creates a kaleidoscopic lens out of Shakespeare’s Hamlet and criticizes both Middle Eastern despotism and the Western manipulation that enables it.
