Authors: - Sheila B. Baquiran , - Geraldeen B. Pascual , - Angelina B. Abrojena , - Mishael Joy S. Barrera
Published: September 2024

The study was undertaken to determine the cohort survival rate of the pioneer batch of the K to 12 student entrants of the eight (8) degree programs at the College of Business, Economics and Accountancy (CBEA), identify the underlying factors triggering the student dropout and institutionalize an intervention program to support the successful retention and graduation of all students. The Reconstructed Cohort Method was used and places less demand on the availability of detailed data over time. This method makes three assumptions: dropouts never return to school; the promotion, repetition and drop-out rates observed in the last two years remain constant over the entire period in which the cohort is enrolled in school and the same rates apply to all students enrolled in a given year level, regardless of whether they previously repeated a subject. A comprehensive analysis on the data gathered was done to process the underlying factors which will serve as valuable inputs in the design of programs and policies to reduce the dropout rate and support the successful retention and graduation of students.
Findings showed that the survival rate of the pioneer batch of the K to 12 student entrants of the different programs range from 55.5% (BS Accountancy) to 97.5% (BSBA HRM) or an average of 81.62%. Overall, the survival rate among the males is 84.14% and the females is 80.86%.
Majority (81.03%) of the respondents who were not able to finish their schooling on time indicated academic-related as their reason. Others mentioned about personal/family concern (17.24) and one indicated career concern.
Some of the suggested interventions supportive to CBEA programs include: the implementation of an institutionalized Academic Advising Program, conduct of series of Academic Advising workshop, Academic Counseling, referral, group counselling, a more aggressive admission interview, parent/guardian conference, peer tutorial, financial assistance program and documentation of academic advising and counseling sessions. In addition, Guidance counselors must be one of the signatories in the dropping out and shifting forms. A replication research study involving different programs in the university is recommended.

The objectives of this study were to investigate the following: 1) household participation; 2) factors relating to household participation; and 3) recommend guidelines for household participation promotion in community-based tourism management in Don Det village, Khong District, Champasak province, Lao PDR. Households were unit of analysis in this study and respondents in this study consisted of 104 households in Don Det village. A set of questionnaires passing content validity and reliability test was used for data collection. The reliability values of the questionnaire on attitude of the head of household was 0.78 and on household participation in community-based tourism management was 0.92.
Findings showed that household participation in community-based tourism management of Ban Don Det community, most of the respondents participated at a moderate level (mean = 3.00). The three aspects were also found at a moderate level: (1) participation in management community tourism activities (mean = 2.66); (2) participation in the process preparing communities to support tourism (mean = 2.67); (3) participation in evaluation from the tourism community activities (mean = 3.05). However, participation in benefiting from the tourism community activities was found at a high level (mean = 3.71).
Significant factors that could predict the relationships towards household participation in community-based tourism management were two independent variables: the number of household members involved in tourism and the attitude of the head of household were correlated with the household participation in the management of community-based tourism at a moderate level (R = 0.449, P <0.05). This could explain the relationships between independent variables as mentioned and household participation in community-based tourism management with a statistical significance level of 20.20 percent.
The following were suggestions in the policy level: 1) There should have meetings in the village so that some people who are not involved in tourism get to know the tourism, importance of tourism and benefits of tourism; 2) Provincial Information, Culture and Tourism Office of Champasak Province should support and promote tourism marketing for Don Det village. And other suggestions were as follows: 1) There should be a mutually agreement upon sharing benefits to each individual household within the community as appropriately; 2) it should promote more people to be involved in community tourism; and 3) the training should be provided to educate people in the community about tourism management and should raise awareness about conservation of tourism resources in the community.

Published: September 2024

The varicella-zoster virus, or VZV, is a neurotropic human herpesvirus that is widespread throughout the world and belongs to the group Alphaherpesviridae. It is the root cause of varicella-induced chickenpox and shingles (Herpes Zoster [HZ]). The virus, which is spread by respiratory droplets or contact with active varicella lesions, is considered one of the most contagious illnesses. Herpetic neuralgia (HZ) can cause pain, ocular swelling, and possibly even irreversible or temporary blindness. Pain begins to subside in the second week following shingles, and it may persist long after the rash has healed. This can result in a difficult complication called postherpetic neurogynea (PHN). As one ages, the frequency and severity of PHN increase. Ninety percent of those who receive the two-dose immunization are able to avoid shingles and HZ.

A Comparative Analysis of Conciliation versus Litigation: Pros and Cons from Indian and Global Perspectives
Authors: - Md. Imran Wahab, IPS
Published: September 2024

This comparative analysis will examine Conciliation and Litigation as two distinct yet interrelated mechanisms for resolving disputes, highlighting their respective advantages and disadvantages within both Indian and global contexts. Conciliation, on one side, offers flexibility and cost-effectiveness, fostering opportunities for “cooperation” and aiding in the maintenance of a “working relationship,” thereby preserving any undamaged aspects of the relationship despite the dispute at hand. Conversely, it lacks binding authority and can be susceptible to exploitation due to existing power imbalances. In contrast, Litigation offers legal certainty, enforceability, and public accountability but is often lengthy, expensive, and inherently adversarial. This paper will explore the increasing significance of conciliation in the overwhelmed judiciary of India as well as on an international scale. Additionally, it is essential to evaluate the adaptability of conciliation in relation to the formal authority of litigation within an effective dispute resolution framework, ensuring that access to justice remains equitable and efficient across various legal systems.

Authors: - Khandker Shamim
Published: September 2024

The protracted conflict between Russia and Ukraine, initiated in 2014 and intensified by Russia's comprehensive military incursion in 2022, has elicited profound apprehensions regarding breaches of international legal standards. This article analyzes the ramifications of the conflict on global legal structures, with particular emphasis on violations of the United Nations Charter, the Rome Statute, and International Humanitarian Law (IHL). The examination underscores that the actions undertaken by Russia in Ukraine contravene essential tenets of international law, notably the ban on the use of force against the sovereignty of states and the imperative to safeguard civilians amidst armed conflict. The article contends that the military actions undertaken by Russia in its invasion constitute violations of the principles of state sovereignty and territorial integrity as outlined in the UN Charter, contravene the definitions of war crimes and aggression established by the Rome Statute, and fail to adhere to the mandates for civilian protection set forth by International Humanitarian Law. This article examines the complexities associated with prosecuting these violations, highlighting the constraints faced by international institutions such as the International Criminal Court (ICC) and the UN Security Council. The analysis highlights the necessity of accountability in maintaining the integrity of international law and averting future transgressions, stressing the wider consequences for global stability and the rule of law.

Authors: - Ayush Anand , - Anindya Deb
Published: September 2024

Health literacy is often associated with health outcomes as people with higher health literacy are found to have better health conditions. Past researchers conclude that people with higher health literacy have greater control over the means of their health determinants resulting in better health decisions. Therefore, it is imperative to understand whether government health communication policies are impacting the health literacy levels of its citizens. Moreover, communication plays a vital role in translating policies into practice. However, sub-optimal Infant and Young Child Feeding (IYCF) practices among rural mothers suggest gaps in the current communication strategies. Therefore, this study is objectivized to analyze the current IYCF communication policies for the rural mothers of Gaya, India. For this purpose, an analysis of the IYCF communication policies followed by observation of the key phenomenon, interviews with relevant stakeholders and focus group discussions with the rural mothers were carried out to identify the barriers in the current communication strategies. The study also tried to assess the impact of IYCF communication policies on rural mothers by unveiling their current level of IYCF health literacy.

Authors: - SHERI LOVE M. AGUIMAN , - JOHMAR V. DAGONDON
Published: September 2024

This study examined teacher’s assessment literacy and its probable impact on students’ performance through the intervening variables of the teachers. The study had 234 public secondary school teachers in the Division of Gingoog City. It employed the Input-Process-Output (IPO) Model of David Bushnell which illustrates how teachers’ demographics (input): length of service, DepEd issuances, and assessment training/s attended, assessment literacy (process): assessment knowledge, assessment practices/beliefs and assessment result utilization will impact students’ performance (output).
The results showed that most of the respondents have been in the service for five years and below, a little over half have attended training on test construction and table of specification, and on average only a little more than one-fourth of the teachers received copies of DepEd issuances relative to assessment. Additionally, it revealed that there is no conclusive evidence to show a direct correlation between teachers’ assessment literacy and students’ performance which means none of the assessment literacy variables significantly impact students’ performance. The results further revealed that no significant difference was noted in teachers’ length of service and DepEd issuance to assessment literacy. However, a highly significant difference was noted in assessment training attended and assessment literacy. It also disclosed that no matter how long the teachers have been in the service, whether they have copies of all DepEd issuances, these do not contribute to their literacy in assessment.
The findings in this study underscored the need to provide quality and effective inputs from both the department and the respondents. There has to be a relevant and appropriate process to effect quality output, which is commendable student performance.

Functional interactions between neurotransmitters and neuropeptides in regulating suprachiasmatic nucleus function and circadian rhythms
Authors: Reghunandanan Vallath
Published: September 2024

The overt expression of circadian rhythms is a manifestation of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). This integrated complex function based on the transcriptional/translational feedback loops (TFFLs), neurotransmitters, genes, networking, and synchronization is essential for this molecular mechanism to operate effectively. Neurotransmitters by participating in the entrainment to the environmental light conditions and synchronization contribute to the robustness of the rhythm. Neurotransmitter signaling is the hallmark of circadian rhythm expression. Even during development, neuropeptides contribute to the dramatic cellular, genetic, and network circuit changes. Participating neurotransmitters are seen in afferent inputs, efferent output, and the SCN. There are numerous neurotransmitters involved in SCN function. Astrocytes co-exist with neurons in the SCN. Autonomous clocks seen in astrocytes can drive circadian behavior like neurons. Astrocytes and neurons are acting as two arms of the clock. Coupling through glutamate released from astrocytes gives additional evidence for the role of astrocytes. Glutaminergic signaling from astrocytes may also be responsible for timekeeping. The neurotransmitters can independently and in combination execute the functions making SCN a unique pacemaker for the overt expression of circadian rhythms. This reassessment also highlights its role in underlying molecular mechanisms, genetic linkage, and the recently known role of astrocytes.

Published: September 2024

The comprehensive development of the Far Eastern and Arctic coasts of Russia requires the development of all types of transport. One of the promising types is seaworthy vehicles on air-supported tracks. This type of transport has a minimal impact on the tundra soil, which is easily destroyed in the summer. The load-bearing capacity of this type of seaworthy all-terrain vehicles can reach 150 tons. The design of the air-supported tracks includes a high-strength endless elastic belt with low-pressure pneumatic tiles mounted on the outer surface. An air cushion is used instead of a mechanical suspension system. The use of low-pressure pneumatic tiles provides a large area of the "contact patch" with the soil, which allows moving along its surface without damaging the tundra turf. An important task in developing this type of transport is the design of the power plant. The results of serial full-scale experiments and analytical dependencies were used to estimate the required power of the power plant. This article is about to mathematical modeling and the results of determining power consumption during the co-directed movement of water and the caterpillar surface in contact with it.

The written Arabic literary tradition of the Malian desert in West Africa remains largely unknown to the region's inhabitants and the wider Arab and Islamic world. Despite its distance from the traditional centers of Arabic poetry in the Arabian Peninsula, this literature deserves far more attention than it has received. Unfortunately, it has not been given the scholarly consideration it deserves in the research and studies conducted on this country, which could reveal its unique characteristics as a form of Malian African literature written in Arabic and its undeniable value regarding its scientific, cultural, and historical significance. The people inhabiting the Malian desert, including the Soninke, the Berbers, and particularly the Tuareg tribes, developed an Arabic sensibility and literary flair, leading them to compose works in various genres, including religious, linguistic, and literary texts, all at a high level. They also served as living models for others when writing poetry in classical Arabic. The literary renaissance in the northern Malian region emerged in the first half of the 19th century, spearheaded by poets from prominent Arab tribes such as the Tuareg, the Ansar, and the Kunta, as well as their disciples and the 20th century witnessed the rise of numerous poets who excelled in various literary fields. Tuareg poets have written on different subjects, including love, praise, elegy, description, satire, supplication, and prayer. Their poems incorporate many rhetorical and stylistic devices and are characterized by their beauty and sweetness of style.

Aim: To assess the Haematological profile and Serum Iron indices in non-dialysis Chronic Kidney Disease patients  Background And Objectives: Anemia is one of the most common condition seen in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease. It occurs due to reduced production of erythropoietin from Kidney which is required for production of RBC. As many people are landing up with CKD and it is becoming a global issue, anemia is becoming more prevalent among the population. One of the factor which also contributes to it is nutritional deficiency such as iron deficiency anemia which overlaps with reduced production of RBC due to CKD.  Materials and Methods: It is a cross sectional study conducted over a period of 18 month in out patient department and wards of Department of Nephrology and General Medicine, Katuri Medical College and Hospital, Guntur. A sample size of 100 individuals were considered for the study. Ethical Clearances were taken and informed consent given about the same. Patients underwent needed investigations like haematological profile including Serum. Ferritin, Iron and transferrin saturation and Renal Function tests.  Results: Our study's findings indicated that the severity of chronic renal disease increased along with a low level of hemoglobin and packed cell volume. Anaemia was present in all the individuals included in the study cases. 70% of the individuals exhibited microcytic normochromic anemia, while 10% displayed microcytic hypochromic anemia. 10 percent of the studied subjects exhibited concurrent occurrences of both forms of anemia. The observed difference was very statistically significant (p = 0.0001). Among the Control patients, 32% had normal levels of haemoglobin, whereas the remaining 68% presented both kinds of anemia. There were significant differences (p < 0.05) in the TIBC, TSAT %, and Ferritin values between the study and control cases in terms of serum iron indices. The Ferritin readings did not show any significant differences.  Conclusion: It is imperative to make every possible attempt to determine the underlying cause of anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and to provide appropriate treatment for the concurrent iron deficient anemia in these individuals. Additionally, it is important to monitor other hematological parameters in order to identify any concomitant abnormalities.

How to improve your warehouse operating efficiency helps to understand the critical factors that influence the productivity of the warehouse operations. As we know logistics is essential for supply chain in today’s world to reach the products on time and in full (OTIF). To attain better OTIF rate, operating the warehouse to the fullest efficiency is critical. There are various types of warehouses, at different sizes (in Sq. ft), diverse operating models, several applications are available in the market. Warehouses of each industry types have their own uniqueness in operating model, and it comes its own complexity. Operating warehouses to the maximum efficiency is always challenging, constant automation with process and system re-engineering is needed to keep up the pace. Inefficient warehouse operations can bring the business to a standstill unless its upbeat to meet the needs of the customers. Warehouse applications complement to the performance of the deliverables from logistics perspective, fulfilling the customer service level agreements (SLA).

Sensory marketing is easy to manage and understand and is based on emotional and behavioral actions that are ideal for selling products and services. These are the actions that, through corporate marketing and design, create positive emotions and experiences for the consumer or consumer who associates sight, smell, taste, hearing and touch with the brand. It uses one or more of the user’s senses to entice and attract them to a product and service to become a customer. The article aims to investigate the expert’s opinion on how sensory marketing affects consumers. The article was prepared based on the analysis of scientific literature and the analysis of interview data. The study involved 13 experts, 6 women and 7 men, who work in the field of informatics, marketing, transport, business, trade communications. Sensory marketing is a solution that can create emotional qualities of a product and establish strong relationships with the consumer. Smell affects people’s behavior and emotions. The problem is that most marketing companies still focus on using video and audio.

Stellar flares from K and M dwarfs release panchromatic radiation characterized by a significantly higher brightness temperature (∼9–20 kK) than the star. The increased frequency of magnetic activity on young low-mass stars results in the energy released during flaring events becoming a notable contributor to the radiation environment. This study focuses on the β Pictoris moving group (βPMG; 24 ± 3 Myr) for the analysis of young low-mass star flaring rates within the framework of larger flare studies. The calibration of long-term optical flare statistics is crucial to updating flare activity–age relations and the interpretation of exoplanet atmosphere observations. Using the βPMG, we develop a modular flare-extraction pipeline sensitive to low-mass stellar flares in observations from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS). This pipeline is built to characterize the flare properties of these stars such as total energy and cumulative flare rate. Consistent with previous studies, this sample (N = 49) shows higher cumulative flare rates than early-type and old field stars by at least an order of magnitude. Fitted flare frequency distributions for both early- and late-type M dwarfs show an average slope of 1.58 ± 0.23, with earlier stars flaring with lower or similar rates to late types. A typical member in this sample has daily (∼1 day−1) flares with TESS band energies of 1032–1033 erg. The optical flare rates and energies for this group provide essential context into the coevolution of host stars and associated planets.
