On Irreducible Carpets of Additive Subgroups of Type $F_4$
Authors: Лихачева А.О.
Published: June 2023

В статье описаны неприводимые ковры $\mathfrak{A}=\{\mathfrak{A}_r:\ r\in \Phi\}$ типа $F_4$ над полем $K$, все аддитивные подгруппы $\mathfrak{A}_r$ которых являются $R$-модулями, где $K$ --- алгебраическое расширения поля $R$. Интересным фактом оказалось то, что только в характеристике $2$ появляются ковры, которые параметризуются парой аддитивных подгрупп. С точностью до сопряжения диагональным элементом из соответствующей группы Шевалле эта пара аддитивных подгрупп становится полями, но они могут быть различными. Кроме того, в работе установлено, что такие ковры $\mathfrak{A}$ являются замкнутыми. Ранее В. М. Левчук описал неприводимые ковры лиева типа ранга больше 1 над полем $K$, хотя бы одна аддитивная подгруппа которых является $R$-модулем, где $K$ --- алгебраическое расширение поля $R$, в предположении, что характеристика поля $K$ отличная от 0 и 2 для типов $B_l$, $C_l$ и $F_4$, а для типа $G_2$ отлична от 0, 2 и 3 [1]. Для данных характеристик с точностью до сопряжения диагональным элементом все аддитивные подгруппы таких ковров совпадают с одним промежуточным подполем между $R$ и $K$.
Tipologi Tripolar Sebagai Resolusi Konflik Keagamaan Di Indonesia
Authors: Suci Januri Tasya
Published: June 2023

Indonesia sebagai negara plural masih belum bisa meredam terjadinya konflik-konflik agama yang terjadi akibat perbedaan pandangan atau pemahaman mengenai keyakinan, hingga kemudian menimbulkan konflik, baik konflik kecil maupun konflik besar yang mengakibatkan kerusakan dan kerugian. Minimnya toleransi serta tingginya fanatisme masyarakat membuat konflik sulit dihindarkan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk meneliti pemanfaatan sikap teologi beragama yang diusung Alan Race yaitu tipologi tripolar dalam penyelesaian konflik agama di Indonesia. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode systematic literature review dan teknik pengumpulan data studi literatur. Setelah membaca dari referensi-referensi yang ditemukan serta melakukan analisis terkait penelitian yang dilakukan, peneliti mendapati bahwa tipologi tripolar yang diusung Alan Race yaitu inklusivisme dan pluralisme dapat menjadi suatu jalan membangun sikap toleransi antar umat beragama. Karena paham atau pendekatan inklusivisme dan pluralisme dapat membuat setiap pemeluk agama memahami dengan bijak perbedaan setiap agama, sehingga tidak menimbulkan prasangka yang dapat melahirkan konflik. Adanya penerapan paham inklusivisme dan pluralisme justru dapat  mendatangkan hubungan yang harmonis diantara umat beragama karena adanya keterbukaan dan rasa saling menghargai ajaran agama masing-masing.
Zakat dan Pajak dalam Perspektif Syariah
Authors: Adiyes Putra Popi , Marliyah Marliyah , Siregar Pani Akhiruddin
Published: June 2023

Zakat merupakan pemasukan bagi negara. Zakat yang dipungut pemerintah lewat lembaga amil zakat nasional (Baznas) kepada umat Islam yang telah memenuhi nisab dan haul sesuai ketentuan syariah. Zakat yang telah dihimpun kemudian disalurkan kepada hasnaf yang delapan. Sedangkan pajak dihimpun oleh pemerintah lewat Direktorat Jenderal Pajak Kementerian Keuangan dan Dinas Pendapatan Daerah (Dispenda). Pajak yang telah dihimpun kemudian digunakan untuk kemaslahatan bersama, biaya pemerintahan, pembangunan jalan dan fasilitas umum, pendidikan, ekonomi dan lain-lain. Memperhatikan penggunaan zakat dan pajak terdapat perbedaan antara keduanya. Para ulama berbeda pendapat terkait dengan perbedaan dan persamaan antara zakat dan pajak. Meskipun demikian sebagian ulama berpendapat ketika seorang muslim telah membayar pajak, tidak membuat seseorang itu terbebas dari kewajiban untuk membayar zakat, dan ketika seorang warga negara telah membayar zakat bisa membuat dia terbebas dari kewajiban membayar pajak atau mengurangi besaran kewajibannya membayar pajak. Hal ini mengingat zakat merupakan perintah agama yang wajib untuk ditunaikan, sedangkan pajak adalah kewajiban yang diatur oleh Negara.

Hyper Religiusitas di Era Digital: Analisis Paradigma Postmodernisme Jean Baudrillard Terhadap Fenomena Keberagamaan di Media Sosial
Authors: Saumantri Theguh
Published: June 2023

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji fenomena hyper religiusitas yang terjadi dalam era digital di Indonesia dengan menggunakan paradigma postmodernisme Jean Baudrillard. Hyper religiusitas di era digital dapat dijelaskan dengan konsep simulasi dan tanda yang dikemukakan oleh Baudrillard. Fenomena ini dapat dilihat melalui praktik keagamaan yang tidak hanya terjadi di dunia nyata, tetapi juga di dunia maya. Paradigma postmodernisme Baudrillard juga dapat digunakan untuk menjelaskan perubahan identitas dalam era modern dan pasca-modern, serta dampak media dalam memahami dan mempraktikkan agama. Selain itu, artikel ini membahas dampak masyarakat konsumeris terhadap simbol agama dan konsumsi sebagai cara masyarakat konsumeris memandang agama. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan filosofis, yaitu dengan melakukan analisis terhadap konsep-konsep simulasi dan tanda dalam pandangan Baudrillard. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa fenomena hyper religiusitas yang terjadi di era digital dapat dipahami melalui konsep simulasi dan tanda, di mana agama dan simbol-simbol keagamaan dijadikan konsumsi dalam masyarakat konsumeris. Hal ini dapat berdampak pada perubahan praktik keagamaan yang sebelumnya didasarkan pada nilai-nilai keagamaan menjadi didasarkan pada nilai-nilai konsumsi.

Authors: Syamsurijal Syamsurijal , Hitami Munzir , M. Yusuf Kadar
Published: June 2023

Kesalahan paradigma dalam menilai suatu keberhasilan pendidikan anak juga perlu diluruskan. Keberhasilan pendidikan sering diukur dari prestasi akademik dan pekerjaan yang didapat setelah menyelesaikan pendidikan. Sehingga dalam proses pendidikan, prestasi seorang anak jarang di hubungkan dengan dengan akhlaq dan keperibadiannya. Menjawab persoalan tersebut, ada baiknya kita kembali menggali kesukseskan Nabi Ibrahim yang telah di informasikan dalam Al-Qur’an tentang mendidik anak, keluarga dan umatnya. Penelitian ini termasuk dalam jenis penelitian kepustakaan (library research), karena data yang diteliti berupa naskah-naskah, buku-buku atau majalah-majalah yang bersumber dari khazanah kepustakaan dan sifat dari penelitian ini adalah deskriptif kualitatif. Hasil Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Metode-metode pendidikan dalam kisah-kisah Nabi Ibrahim as., dalam al-Qur’an: sebagaimana metode-metode yang sudah lazim diterapkan di dunia pendidikan, yang mencakup: (1) metode tanya jawab, dialog, percakapan (hiwar) Qur’ani, (2) metode ceramah dan penuturan kisah Qur’ani, (3) metode do’a, (4) metode keteladanan (uswah), (5) metode demonstrasi/ praktek langsung, (6) metode pembelajaran dan nasehat  (‘ibrah wa al-mau’idhah), (7) metode targhib wa al-tarhib (memberikan kabar gembira/ membuat senang dan memberikan kabar buruk/ membuat takut) dan (8) metode Eksperimen
A NEW METHOD FOR OBTAINING HAPLOID PLANT SHED-MICROSPORTS CULTURE
Authors: TATAR Mevlude
Published: June 2023

In plant breeding studies, dihaploidization method is used to obtain homozygous pure lines used to develop varieties in a shorter time. Dihaploidization method is applied in most types of vegetables such as wheat and corn, as well as in vegetable species. Androgenesis methods (anther and microspore culture) and gynogenesis and parthenogenesis methods (ovula and ovary culture) are used to obtain haploid plants. One of the androgenetic methods, shed-microspore culture has been a new alternative technique to anther and microspore cultures, and successful results have been obtained. The most important feature of this technique is the presence of a double-layered nutrient medium in a single petri dish, and the culture of microspores in the anthers in solid and liquid nutrient medium. In this study, the definition and application of microspore culture and shed-microspore cultures, studies conducted in the world and in our country and their developments in recent years were examined.
Parameter Analysis of Convolutional Neural Network Operated on Embedded Platform for Estimation of Combustion Efficiency in Coal Burners
Authors: GÜNDÜZALP Veysel , ÇELİK Gaffari , TALU Muhammed Fatih , ONAT Cem
Published: June 2023

Accurately and effectively calculating combustion efficiency in coal burners is crucial for industrial boiler manufacturers. Two main approaches can be used to calculate boiler efficiency: 1) Analyzing the gas emitted from the flue; 2) Visualizing the combustion chamber in the boiler. Flue gas analyzers, which are not user-friendly, come with high costs. Additionally, the physical distance between the flue and the combustion chamber causes the measurement to be delayed. Methods based on visualizing the combustion chamber do not have these disadvantages. This study proposes a system based on visualizing the combustion chamber and has two contributions to the literature: 1) for the first time, the modern Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) approach is used to estimate combustion efficiency; 2) the CNN architecture with optimal parameters can work on an embedded platform. When classical classification techniques and a CPU-supported processor card are used, efficiency can be calculated from one flame image in 1.7 seconds, while this number increases to approximately 20 frames per second (34 times faster) when the proposed CNN architecture and GPU-supported processor card are used. The results obtained demonstrate the superiority of the proposed CNN architecture and hardware over classical approaches in estimating coal boiler combustion efficiency.

Authors: BAKIR Murat , ÖZHAN BAKIR Tülay
Published: June 2023

In this study, the effects of Royal Jelly (RJ) on oxidative stress caused by exhaustive swimming exercise in rat tissues were evaluated. Methods: Twenty four male Wistar albino rats were indiscriminately distributed into four experimental groups: Sedentary control (SC); SC with administration of RJ (100 mg kg-1) (SC + RJ); exhaustive swimming exercise (E); Exhaustive swimming exercise with administration of RJ (100 mg kg-1) (E + RJ). 100 mg kg-1 of RJ were dissolved in drinking water. Rats in the SC+RJ and E+RJ groups supplemented with RJ (100 mg kg-1) orally once a day for two weeks. Rats in groups E and E+RJ subjected to acute exhaustive swimming exercise on the 14th day of the study, then some biochemical parameters related to oxidative stress of all groups were measured. Results: The activities of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (CRE) levels significantly raised in the exercised rats compared with the sedentary rats (P < 0.05). The decreased superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx), and catalase (CAT) activities of muscular and hepatic tissues significantly increased and the high malondialdehyde (MDA) levels of muscular, hepatic and kidney tissues significantly reduced in exercised rats treated with RJ (P < 0.05). Conclucion: Collectively, in this study, protective effects of RJ on tissues against oxidative damage after exhaustive exercise were observed.

Published: June 2023

Cutting forces in turning have dramatic impact on the cutting stability, tool wear index and surface quality. Machinability of cast iron is important as per this material is served as the main source in manufacturing specific parts of automotive industry. Also, this special material may require final operation to eliminate the manufacturing related defects and residuals. In this context, this study focuses on the optimization and analysis of cutting forces during dry turning of GGG50 material. Thus, Taguchi based experimental design was applied using three levels of cutting speed, feed rate and cutting depth and totally 9 experiments were performed. The discussions on the cutting forces were made based on statistical analysis, optimization approach and graphical presentations. Accordingly, feed rate is the most influentive parameter on cutting forces with the contribution rate about 71.2 %. Cutting speed and depth of cut follows it with the contributions of 21.7 % and 1.5 %. To achieve the minimized cutting forces the parameter group should be; 0.16 mm, 0.2 mm/rev, 80 m/min. This study is expected to be an auxiliary resource for designers and manufacturers in the field to improve the machinability aspects of casted materials.
EPIDEMIC SPREAD ANALYSIS IN SOCIAL COMMUNICATION NETWORKS WITH SIR MODEL
Authors: ALİŞAN Yiğit , İLHAN Nagehan
Published: June 2023

Compartmental mathematical models are frequently used in epidemiology. These types of models rely on some assumptions, such as the homogeneity of the society and the equal contact ratio of everyone, to model real-life events mathematically. In real life, due to the heterogeneous nature of the social network that constitutes society, the contact rates and contact times of individuals vary. In sudden and new types of epidemics, solutions such as vaccines to slow down or end epidemics may be limited. In such cases, it becomes more important to use limited resources with maximum efficiency. In this study, the estimation results of disease spread in homogeneous and heterogeneous population structures were compared using the SIR compartment model. The dataset obtained from the science gallery in Dublin in 2009 was used to illustrate the heterogeneous community structure in real life. In the exhibition, the spread of the disease was simulated when individuals with different degrees of centrality in the network formed by the visitors who made face-to-face contacts were immunized. When the results obtained are compared, in the case of vaccination of individuals with high betweenness centrality, the spread of infection occurs 14,39% less than the homogeneous network structure accepted in SIR models.

Authors: KILIÇKAP IŞIK Sinem , ÇULUN Perihan
Published: June 2023

In the present study, an experimental research was conducted on the photovoltaic solar energy potential in Bingöl province. In the study, the electrical energy that the photovoltaic (PV) panel can produce hourly at an inclination angle of 39° and 45° and the panel surface temperature were investigated. The electrical energy that can be produced indoors and outdoors in winter conditions was calculated from the photovoltaic panel with 25 W power. It has been observed that the highest efficiency can be obtained at the 45° panel inclination angle. It has been concluded that while the average electric power produced at an angle of inclination of 45° is 9.68 W in outdoor conditions, it can be 1.222 W in indoor conditions. The data obtained will be an important reference in determining the panel size that will meet the consumption need and in the establishment of higher efficiency systems. It is stated that the payback period of grid-connected systems in provinces with high solar radiation such as Bingöl is 6 years on average. At the end of this period, it is clear that it will make significant contributions to both the landlords, the country's economy, and the environment in terms of reducing emissions.

Acanthamoeba species are an important pathogen that causes Acanthamoeba keratitis, which causes a visual loss, and encephalitis, which lead to the central nervous system infection and death. The options available to successfully treat Acanthamoeba infections have limited success. New therapeutic approaches must thus be developed, and especially combination medication therapy may be a successful and an effective strategy. The aim of this study was to assess the combination efficacy of verapamil and fluconazole against Acanthamoeba trophozoites and cysts. The effects of drugs on growth inhibition against Acanthamoeba were tested using amoebicidal assays. The viability of Acanthamoeba was assessed using Trypan blue and hemocytometer counts. The effect of three different concentrations of fluconazole, verapamil and fluconazole + verapamil combination on growth inhibition against Acanthamoeba trophozoites and cysts was significant compared to the control (p

Published: June 2023

Abstract: The present article focuses on some reflectionsabout the process of translation into Italian of the well-known Russian fairy tale by Aleksey Nikolaevich Tolstoy(1882-1945) Zolotoy klyuchik, ili Priklyucheniya Buratino(The Little Golden Key, or the Adventures of Burattino, 1935). Basing from the methodological point of view on some recent acquisitions of international TranslationTheory, we will examine the main “difficulties” or “challenges” for the translator present in the source text, such as anisomorphisms, linguistic connotations, neologisms, cultural realia and phraseologisms. We willalso consider the employment of different stylistic registersin the tale, often connected to the characters’ “expressiveaura” and to thick intertextual allusions to Russian Silver Age. Our lexical and stylistic choices in the translated text will be analyzed with regard to the dominants of the original work and to the specific characteristics of Russian(and Soviet) children literature of the time. Some solutionsproposed in the two published Italian versions of the 1980swill be also taken into account, questioning the opportunityand the main orientations of a new translation in relation to the kind of “implied readers” expected.

Hâlid b. Velîd'in Savaş Taktikleri
Authors: GÖK Bilal , ZEYBEK Merve
Published: June 2023

Savaşlarda kullanılan taktikler savaşın sonucu açısından önemlidir. Müslümanlar farklı coğrafyalarda fetih faaliyetlerini sürdürürken çeşitli şartları göz önünde bulundurdular. Bunun sonucu olarak da farklı savaş taktiklerini kullandılar. Hz. Peygamber, Hz. Ebû Bekir ve Hz. Ömer’in savaşın zorluklarını ve harp sanatını bilen komutanlar tayin ettiklerini görmekteyiz. Hâlid b. Velîd, Hz. Peygamber’in “seyfullah” lakabı verdiği sahabi ve meşhur komutandır. O, gösterdiği kahramanlıklar, kullandığı üstün savaş teknikleri ve ileri görüşlülüğü ile çağdaşları içerisinden temayüz etmiştir. Hâlid, Müslüman olduktan sonra üç yıl Hz. Peygamberin sohbetinde ve emrinde bulundu. Daha sonra Hz. Ebû Bekir ve Hz. Ömer dönemlerinde de İslâm toplumuna hizmet etti. Günümüze değin Hâlid’in hayatı hakkında birçok eser kaleme alındığı halde, onun savaş taktiklerini anlatan müstakil bir çalışma yapılmamıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, savaş esnasında vaziyet ve şartlara göre strateji üretme becerisine sahip olan Hâlid’in kullandığı savaş taktiklerini tanıtmaktır. O, yaptığı savaşlar esnasında vur-kaç, istihbarat toplama, orduyu birliklere ayırma, kuşatma ve psikolojik savaş taktiği gibi birçok savaş taktiğini kullanmıştır. Hâlid’in askeri faaliyetleri arasında istihbarat çalışmalarının da ayrı bir yeri vardır. Cezîre bölgesinin fethi aşamasında, onun yaptırdığı istihbarat faaliyetleri sayesinde İslam ordusunun hızlıca ilerlemesi mümkün olabilmiştir. Ayrıca Hâlid’in, Mûte harbinde uyguladığı askeri birliklerin yerlerini değiştirme ve vur-kaç yöntemi, İslam ordusunu tamamen yok olmaktan kurtarmıştır. Hâlid, Yermük savaşında ordunun merkez, sağ ve sol kanatlarını bölüklere ayırmış, her birinin başına bir komutan tayin ederek daha önce Müslümanlar tarafından bilinmeyen bir taktik geliştirmiştir. Çalışmada zikri geçen bu vb. hususlar detaylı şekilde ele alınacaktır.

Authors:   Bandung Institute of Technology, Indonesia, Lindartono Yehezkiel Willy , Aldianto Leo ,   Bandung Institute of Technology, Indonesia
Published: June 2023

This thesis investigates the development of a food traceability system for the shrimp export industry at PT. Udang Maju Sejahtera (UMS). The primary objective was to enhance the transparency and accountability of the shrimp supply chain, thereby improving product quality and consumer trust. The study employed a three-pronged approach: formulating a robust business strategy, innovating product development, and restructuring the organization into a cross-functional team. The business strategy focused on aligning the company’s operations with the emerging demands for food traceability in the export market. The product development innovation involved the creation of a traceability system that leverages advanced technology to track and record the journey of shrimp from farm to consumer. The restructuring into a cross-functional team aimed to streamline the decision-making process and accelerate the development cycle. The results indicated that while PT. UMS’s strategy aligns with the industry’s direction towards increased traceability, the development process was time-consuming and required organizational restructuring. The study concludes that the integration of a cross-functional team within PT. UMS could expedite the development and implementation of the traceability system, thereby enhancing the company’s competitiveness in the shrimp export industry. Recommendations for PT. UMS include enhancing innovation management, investing in advanced technology, collaborating with external partners, and adopting a culture of continuous improvement. Future research should explore the long-term impacts of these recommendations on the company’s performance and the traceability system’s effectiveness.

The study aimed to assess social and psychological challenges facing orphaned children living in the orphanages in Tanzania. The motivational theory of Abraham Maslow guided this study with the use of the qualitative approach. In-depth interviews were employed to collect data from the research participants. The study was carried out in four orphanage centres within three wards in Dar es Salaam Region. A purposive sampling technique was employed to get 29 participants for this study. Specifically, the study intends to answer the following unexplored questions: i) What are the social challenges facing orphaned children living in the orphanages? ii) What are the psychological challenges facing orphaned children living in the orphanages? The findings revealed that in the orphanages orphaned children experienced various social challenges including shortage of basic needs, shortage of educational materials, and lack of sport gears as well as poor health services. They also faced psychological challenges like physical punishment, bullying behaviours from fellows, segregation, isolation and poor attachment from their caregivers. Such challenges are indicators for defining ineffectiveness of caregivers in providing psychosocial services to orphaned children. The study concluded that in the present context, orphanages are not a good residence for orphans’ psychosocial wellbeing due to shortage of funds and presence of untrained personnel. The study recommended that, the government should formulate interventional policies and enact laws which would look after the welfare of orphaned children rather than depending on the institutional Care.

Various iatrogenic complication may be seen during extraction of mandibular 3rd molar. Displacement of mandibular 3rd molar into pterygomandibular space is usual but displacement into an unusual space like submandibular space or sublingual space is very rare. This can cause significant physical and psychological problems for the patient. The treatment for this kind of complications may vary from a conservative treatment to surgical procedure, what will depend on clinical features, symptoms, the location of the tooth, and its relation to adjacent structures. The present case report illustrates a rare complication of extraction of impacted mandibular third molar that was displaced into the sublingual region. Upon locating the tooth, successful removal of tooth was performed. Healing was uneventful after a 3 month of follow up.
Structural Fragility of Cerebral Aneurysms: A Comparative Analysis of Unruptured & Ruptured Aneurysms
Authors:   Internal Medicine, California Institute of Behavioral Neurosciences & Psychology, Shantha Kumar Vivig
Published: June 2023

Ongoing studies to understand the mechanisms behind intracranial aneurysm (IA) pathogenesis characterize intracranial aneurysm as a maladaptive chronic inflammatory disease. An overwhelmingly large number of studies implicate inflammation as a crucial driver of aneurysmal growth and attendant rupture. The induction of aneurysmal formation begins with endothelial damage, which secondarily activates a progressive inflammatory response that compromises the structural integrity of the vessel wall. Pivotal consequences of this inflammatory response is a disintegration of the internal elastic lamina, myointimal hyperplasia, and vascular smooth muscle cell (vsmc) phenotypic modulation and subsequent apoptosis. Interestingly, analysis of gene expression profiles in patients with intracranial aneurysms commonly highlight a differential expression of genes related to inflammatory/immune responses, cell adhesion, and muscle contraction. A detailed understanding of intracranial aneurysmal pathogenesis may be possible by analyzing morphological differences in aneurysmal structure between unruptured and ruptured lesions. As such, in this review, we have attempted to understand sequential adaptations of the aneurysmal wall during various periods of growth, development and rupture by providing evidence for structural, genetic, and molecular differences between unruptured and ruptured intracranial aneurysm.

Authors: Aramide Kolawole Akinjide
Published: June 2023

A strong reading culture is an essential tool for anybody who wants to achieve in life. It broadens students' knowledge, breadth of knowledge, and enjoyment. Reading culture is crucial for personal and academic success, and its significance cannot be over-emphasised. This study was designed to investigate the reading culture of undergraduates in federal universities in Southwestern Nigeria. Three objectives guided the study. Survey research design was adopted for the study while focus group discussion was used for data collection. A total of three sessions of focus group discussion were held with eighteen undergraduates across the three universities selected for the study which are, University of Ibadan, Obafemi Awolowo University and University of Lagos, Lagos. Six undergraduates were selected from each of the universities to form the sample for the study. Data collected were analysed using Atlas ti8. The findings revealed that the undergraduates read majorly for academic purposes and that they undergraduates have positive attitudes towards reading.. The study recommended that university management should make the curriculum more flexible to enable undergraduates to be involved in reading exercises other than academics. Undergraduates should also make determined efforts to engage more in pleasure/recreational reading to enhance their reading culture.
E-learning in a Nigerian university: Implication to higher institution students’ self-efficacy and academic performance during COVID-19
Authors: Ubogu Rowell E.
Published: June 2023

The outbreak of COVID-19 affected almost every sector, including higher education institutions across the world including Nigeria education system. This led to shift to online learning. For this purpose, the researcher aimed to investigate students‟ academic performance when e-learning is used in the teaching and learning process and also explored the significant difference based on gender on the activities students carry out with e-learning to boost their self-efficacy in times of COVID-19. There were 202 respondents, including 157 males and 45 females, from public higher institutions in Delta State, Nigeria. Descriptive survey research design was employed. The findings of the study revealed that e-learning due to the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic negatively affects student‟s self-efficacy. Besides the study revealed significant differences on the activity‟s students‟ carryout (e-learning) to boost their self-efficacy across genders. The study recommended that, the Ministry of Education and all the involved stakeholders should provide online teaching applications, train and develop ICT experts who would partner with educators to provide e-learning facilities.
Impact of Abortion on Hormonal Changes
Authors: Koech Danson
Published: June 2023

Purpose: The aim of the study is to examine the impact of abortion on hormonal changes.

Methodology: This study adopted a desktop methodology. This study used secondary data from which include review of existing literature from already published studies and reports that was easily accessed through online journals and libraries.

Findings: The findings indicate that abortion can lead to hormonal alterations, including changes in estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, and thyroid hormone levels. These hormonal changes can have both short-term and long-term effects on women's physical and emotional well-being. The study reveals potential implications of hormonal changes following abortion. These implications include menstrual irregularities, altered reproductive hormone levels, increased stress responses, psychological distress, and potential impacts on sexual functioning and future fertility outcomes.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study was anchored on neuroendocrine theory of abortion-related hormonal changes which was proposed by Bagshawe, Campbell, Flett, and Maclean and psychoneuroimmunology (PNI) theory which was pioneered by Ader, Felten, and Cohen. Policymakers should prioritize the availability of comprehensive post-abortion care that includes monitoring and managing hormonal changes. This can be achieved by supporting healthcare systems, expanding access to reproductive healthcare facilities, and integrating hormonal health services into existing abortion care frameworks.

Published: June 2023

Coronary heart disease is a leading cause of death around the world. Early and accurate detection of this disease is vital to reducing complications and preventing heart failure and heart attacks. This project creates an early-level diagnosis method that analyzes heart sound audio to detect and characterize heart anomalies including murmurs, arrhythmias, and extra heart sounds. The dataset was obtained from Peter Bently’s Classifying Heart Sounds Database. This dataset was used to train a machine learning algorithm in Google’s AutoML Vision that could distinguish between normal heart sounds, murmurs, arrhythmias, and extra heart sounds. The final model has an average precision of 0.929, thus providing accurate results. This product can be used as a cheap, accessible, and non-invasive diagnosis method for the early detection of cardiovascular diseases.
Hurricane Katrina: Racial and Classist Motivations of Federal Disaster Relief
Authors: Lopez Jessica
Published: June 2023

This paper reviews the events of Hurricane Katrina’s impact on New Orleans and the lack of response from the government. New Orleans is well known for having a large Black population and having some of the highest poverty rates in the US. The Federal Emergency Management Agency’s response to the disaster has been widely regarded as slow and incompetent, and there is reasoning to infer that New Orleans’ racial and class makeup might be why. Poll responses and statements by African Americans were used to support the claim that the lack of response to Hurricane Katrina in the New Orleans area was potentially racially motivated. This paper aims to provide another perspective to motives and issues in American federal disaster response.

With pharmaceutical availability being a pertinent issue in modern medicine, the ability of bioenhancers to increase the bioavailability of a drug, thereby reducing the required dosage, can be critical for reducing treatment costs. Flavonoids, one form of bioenhancers, are metabolites that increase the availability through inhibition of key proteins in gut epithelial cells and transport proteins. Bioenhancers have the potential to inhibit proteins that limit absorption, thus increasing the amount of a target drug that can enter systemic circulation, increasing bioavailability. P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is one of the membrane transport proteins whose function is to transport drugs in and out of the cell. Human serum albumin (HSA), the most abundant protein in the human plasma, is a protein that serves to transport several signals and other compounds throughout the circulatory system. This study assessed the binding of various bioenhancers (piperine, quercetin, capsaicin, naringin, genistein, lysergol, sinomenine, tangeretin) to various forms of P-gp, HSA and ABC transporters to improve drug bioavailability. We hypothesized that the bioenhancers would bind to these transport proteins, thereby inhibiting them and increasing bioavailability.An examination of the geometric shape complementarity scores in PatchDock and the binding affinities (ΔG kcal/mol) from three other web servers (Webina, DockThor, CB-Dock) showed that naringin produces the most optimal binding scores overall. Given the promising optimal binding scores, the data provides critical insight into administering bioenhancers with drugs to improve bioavailability, as well as suggesting that naringin may be a valuable compound to conduct further tests in vitro and in vivo.
