Published: August 2023

Background: The National School Health Policy recommends School Based Committee for schools which is responsible for the implementation of school health programmes (SHP). There are not enough medical doctors to deliver healthcare services in the primary schools hence teachers are looked upon to assist in healthcare delivery in schools. Teachers are in a vantage position to facilitate health among school-aged children. Children spend greater part of their time in school and have opportunity to regularly receive instructions in healthy living from their teachers. Methodology: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted in 34 public primary schools in Bende Local Government Area (LGA), Abia State. All the primary school teachers (320) in the LGA were studied. Data were collected using pre-tested self-administered questionnaire. Data were analysed using SPPSS version 26 and presented in frequency tables. Chi-square was used to test association between categorical variables. P<0.05 was taken as statistically significant. Results: Ages of the participants were positively skewed with a mean value of 39.5±6.793 and a skewness of 0.136. From the findings, 204(63.7%) had good knowledge, 124 (38.7%) had positive attitude and 150 (46.9%) had good practice to school health services. There were statistically significant differences between socio-demographic characteristics and good knowledge and positive attitudes. There was statistically significant difference between socio-demographic characteristics and practice of school health services except marital status with a p-value of 0.108. Conclusion: The participants had good knowledge but negative attitude and poor practice of school health services. There may be need for training intervention studies in school health services to upgrade teachers’ knowledge, attitude and practice. There should be a legislation in the state and country requiring prospective teachers to obtain a diploma in school health services before engaging in teaching profession.

The largest organ in the body, the skin, acts as an immediate barrier between internal tissues and the outside world. The body is shielded by the skin from microbial and chemical attack, as well as the effects of temperature. Skin conditions have a significant impact on a person's emotional and physical health. Psoriasis is one of the most significant skin conditions that have presented difficulties for the medical community. According to Ayurvedic medicine, skin conditions are referred to as Kushta (skin diseases). Kushta comes in eighteen different varieties. The symptoms of psoriasis are comparable to those of Sidhma Kushta which are discussed under Kshudra Kushtās (minor skin diseases). Azadirachta indica (Nimbha) leaves grinded with Sesame oil was the chosen paste from a traditional formula and this review's objective was to investigate how well this selected paste manages to treat Sidhma Kushta. Information about Sidhma Kushta was acquired from Ayurvedic scriptures, contemporary texts and earlier research studies (from primary and secondary sources). Afterwards a survey of the literature was done on this paste and then examined for their Pancha Padārtha (five elements of herb) and pharmacological qualities regarding in the management of Sidhma Kushta. Ayurvedic Pancha Padārtha study has revealed that selected paste has anti-inflammatory effects. The majority of studies have demonstrated the anti-inflammatory effects of selected paste and according to a literature review and Pancha Padārtha analyze, selected paste is useful in the treatment of Sidhma Kushta.

Protective potency of free radical scavengers against DEHP-induced testicular atrophy: A mini-review
Authors: Shigeru Suna  , Masaaki Tokuda  , Fumihiko Jitsunari
Published: August 2023

Contamination with the plasticizer di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is widespread worldwide. DEHP has been found to have testicular toxicity in animal experiments, and is suspected to be reproductively toxic to mammals, including humans. Therefore, it is important to explore the effects of prophylaxis on DEHP-induced reproductive toxicity, such as testicular atrophy. The DEHP metabolite mono(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP) is a potent oxidative stress factor and is thought to be an active toxicant involved in testicular damage. For this reason, free radical scavengers that protect the testis from inflammation and generation of reactive oxygen species are considered to be effective prophylactic agent. The authors discuss the efficacy of several free radical scavengers in preventing testicular atrophy. The efficacy of these free radical scavengers was revealed in a DEHP mixed diet exposure experiment. Examples include nicotinic acid, caffeine, ethanol, and the rare sugar D-allulose.
Using One-hop and Two-hop Neighbouring Information to Defend Against Sybil Attacks in Stationary Wireless Sensor Network

Published: August 2023

Considering the application of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in critical areas like war fields, establishing security in these networks is of great challenge. One of the important and dangerous attacks in these networks is the Sybil attack. In this attack, a malicious node broadcasts several IDs simultaneously. Thus, the malicious node of the adversary attracts high traffic to itself and disrupts routing protocols and affects other operations of the network like data aggregation, voting, and resource allocation, negatively. In this paper, an efficient algorithm based on one-hop and two-hop neighborhood information is proposed to detect Sybil nodes in the stationary WSNs. The proposed algorithm is executed locally with the collaboration of neighboring nodes. The main purpose of the proposed algorithm is to increase the accuracy of detecting Sybil nodes under various conditions including the condition in which a malicious node broadcasts a few numbers of Sybil IDs which is the shortcoming of most existing algorithms. The proposed algorithm is simulated in MATLAB and its efficiency is compared with two similar algorithms in terms of true and false detection rates. The proposed algorithm not only reduces communication overhead but also increases the accuracy of detecting Sybil nodes compared to two similar algorithms.

Published: August 2023

New credit cards containing Europay, MasterCard and Visa (EMV) chips for enhanced security, and for in-store purchases (rather than online purchases) have been adopted considerably in recent years. EMV supposedly protects the payment cards in such a way that the computer chips in a card referred to as chip-and-pin cards generate a unique one-time code each time the card is used.Â  The one-time code is designed such that if it is copied or stolen from the merchant system or from the system terminal, it cannot be useful for creating a counterfeit copy of that card or counterfeit chip of the transaction. However, in spite of this design, EMV technology is not entirely foolproof from failure. This paper dis-cusses the issues, failures and fraudulent cases associated with EMV Chip-And-Card technology. The work also evaluates peopleâ€™s understanding of these issues and the consequential precautions they take to safeguard their information while using the EMV cards for transactions.

El verdadero origen histórico del trauma cardíaco penetrante
Authors: Medrano-Plana Yuri , Hernández-Borroto Carlos Enrique
Published: August 2023

Introducción. Los traumatismos cardíacos son lesiones graves y con elevado índice de letalidad, aspecto que influye en el interés mostrado por los lectores cada vez que aparecen reportados en publicaciones científicas. En ocasiones existe cierto grado de incongruencia a la hora de establecer el origen histórico de sucesos o eventos ocurridos y relacionados con la historia de la medicina. En el caso del trauma cardíaco penetrante han sido descritos diversos orígenes en algunos de los artículos científicos publicados, lo cual puede generar un grado de duda en los lectores. Métodos. Se realizó una revisión de la literatura, médica y no médica, para buscar información que ayudara a esclarecer el verdadero origen histórico de esta entidad. Resultados. El trauma cardíaco penetrante fue descrito por primera vez en la obra griega titulada La Ilíada, escrita por Homero en el siglo VIII A.C., y no en El papiro quirúrgico de Edwin Smith, como varios autores mencionan. Conclusiones. De todos los eventos de trauma cardíaco penetrante descritos, el más irrefutable es el narrado en el canto XIII, donde se cuenta la muerte de Alcátoo, producto de una herida cardíaca ocasionada por una lanza arrojada por Idomeneo durante una batalla.

INTISARI

Manajemen logistik farmasi dan pelayanan kefarmasian bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi, mencegah, dan menyelesaikan masalah terkait obat. Luasnya pelayanan dan keikutsertaan RS Aura Syifa Kediri dalam JKN menuntut suatu pengelolaan persediaan farmasi yang efisien. Perubahan peraturan BPJS tentang rujukan berjenjang juga mengubah pola konsumsi obat. Selain itu tunggakan pembayaran klaim pasien BPJS di rumah sakit Aura Syifa Kediri  selama beberapa bulan terakhir mengakibatkan pihak rumah sakit sedikit terkendala dari sisi operasional dan pelayanan, terutama berkaitan dengan pengadaan obat-obatan. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu untuk menganalisa sistem pengendalian dan meningkatkan efisiensi pengelolaan obat - obat klasifikasi AV dengan menggunakan metode ABC, VEN dan EOQ di Instalasi Farmasi Rumah Sakit Aura Syifa Kediri.

Penelitian yang dilakukan adalah jenis penelitian deskriptif dengan pengambilan data secara Retrospektif data yang digunakan periode Januari 2018 – Desember 2018. Obat yang dianalisis adalah obat oral, injeksi dan infus  yang termasuk dalam kelompok A dari hasil analisis ABC, golongan V dari hasil analisis VEN sehingga didapatkan kelompok obat BPJS klasifikasi AV.

Hasil penelitan didapatkan bahwa dengan metode kombinasi analisis ABC dan VEN dapat mengidentifikasi obat yang memerlukan pengendalian persediaan yang lebih ketat dan memprioritaskan 12  item obat BPJS kategori AV. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa IFRS Aura Syifa pada tahun 2018 belum memenuhi efisiensi biaya yaitu frekuensi item pengadaan lebih tinggi dibanding metode EOQ. Sehingga perhitungan metode ABC VEN dan EOQ dapat meningkatkan efisiensi dalam pengendalian persediaan obat klasifikasi AV pada pasien BPJS di IFRS Aura Syifa Kediri.

Pekerjaan yang sesuai dengan minat kerja karyawan menjadi salah satu faktor dalam produktivitas atau kinerja karyawan. Selain itu, pekerjaan juga harus sesuai dengan keahlian karyawan, sehingga minat dan keahlian merupakan dua parameter penting dalam pencarian pekerjaan. Dengan dua parameter tersebut, maka diperlukan suatu metode yang dapat mempermudah proses pencarian pekerjaan dan pencarian karyawan berdasarkan nilai persentase kesesuaian keahlian dan minat calon karyawan dengan kriteria calon karyawan. Proses perhitungan untuk pencarian calon karyawan yang paling sesuai dilakukan dengan menggunakan metode Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) dimana metode ini mencari penjumlah terbobot dari rating kinerja pada setiap alternatif dari semua kriteria. Metode SAW sendiri merupakan salah satu metode Sistem Pendukung Keputusan (SPK) yang mencari penjumlah terbobot dari rating kinerja pada setiap alternatif dari semua kriteria. Dengan proses ini nilai kesesuaian akan didapatkan yang akan menghasilkan nilai kesesuaian. Dari hasil perhitungan untuk PT Parasawita, didapatkan hasil kesesuaian dengan terkecil 23.022 untuk pelamar dengan nama Ari Setyorini, dan skor terbesar 35.0889 untuk pelamar dengan nama Anggi Ariffanty.
Inductive Risk and Epistemically Detrimental Dissent in Policy-Relevant Science
Authors: Paetkau Tyler
Published: August 2023

 While dissent is key to successful science, it is clear that it is not always beneficial. By requiring scientists to respond to objections, epistemically detrimental dissent (EDD) consumes resources that could be better devoted to furthering scientific discovery. Moreover, bad-faith dissent can create a chilling effect on certain lines of inquiry and make settled controversies seem open to debate. Such dissent results in harm to scientific progress and the public policy that depends on this science. While Biddle and Leuschner propose four criteria that draw on inductive risk as a method for separating this EDD from beneficial dissent, de Melo-Martín and Intemann reject this approach for failing to capture paradigmatic instances of EDD. Against de Melo-Martín and Intemann’s objections, I propose the inductive risk account can be saved and strengthened through the following modifications: 1) removing the requirement that the four conditions of EDD be jointly satisfied, 2) requiring that each criterion be measured as a matter of degree rather than as a binary, and 3) requiring that the four criteria are measured holistically. These modifications not only mitigate the criticisms but produce five benefits over Biddle and Leuschner’s account, including: 1) capturing paradigmatic instances of EDD, 2) reflecting the degree to which an instance of EDD is problematic, 3) capturing the interactions between criteria, 4) avoiding legitimizing inappropriate dissent, and 5) reflecting changes to the epistemic standing of dissent. As such, I argue that the modified IndRA provides a powerful tool for identifying EDD and strengthening science.

The advancement of technology has made the development of software applications become unstoppable. The wide use of software applications has increased the threat to cyber security. The recent pandemic required the organization to adapt and manage new threats and cyberattacks due to the rising number of cybercrime activities all around the digital ecosystem. This situation has led to the importance of ensuring that the software is safe to use. Therefore, software development that emphasizes security aspects in every phase of the software development life cycle (SDLC) should be prioritized and practised to minimize cybersecurity problems. In this study, a document survey be conducted to achieve an understanding of secure software development processes and activities. The source of information is retrieved from different reliable resources of scientific research databases such as IEEE, Science Direct and Google Scholar. Moreover, trusted web resources also be referenced to support the argument in the literature study. Findings show that there are several steps of security measures for every phase of SDLC that should be conducted to improve the security performance of the software developed. The author also suggests solutions for dealing with current issues in secure software development which include educating and training the development team on secure coding practices, utilizing automated tools for software testing and implementing continuous automated scanning of threats and vulnerabilities in the system environment.

Pragmatic Study of Hate Speech in Some American Animated Movies
Authors: Fadhel Asawer , Sahib Mehdi Muhammed Wafaa
Published: August 2023

Language can be used to express positive thoughts and reflect positive perceptions of others. Language, on the other hand, might do the opposite. Hate speech is the language directed at a particular group of people. It incites hostility, violence, or discrimination against others based on a difference in race, religion, or gender, among others. People have become more interested in hate speech due to its impact on individuals and societies. It is argued that hate speech is common in American animated movies that are produced for the young and children. This renders such a phenomenon more dangerous. This study aims to answer the following questions: What are the motivations that incite hate speech in three different American animated movies? What are the pragmatic strategies used to convey it in the data under scrutiny? Which of these pragmatic strategies are the most prevalent? And has hate speech changed in terms of its motivations and pragmatic manifestation through time? This study develops an analytical framework be the basic apparatus for analyzing the data. This study uses Searle's theory (1975) and Culpeper's (1996, 2015) impoliteness. Three American animated movies from three different periods have been chosen: Cinderella (1950), Pocahontas (1995), and Zootopia (2016). The findings of this study have led to some conclusions. The most basic one is that each movie employs the same pragmatic strategies to convey hate speech, but its motivations are different.

أخذ المكان المتخيل حيزاً ليس بقليل من قصيدة الحرب الاندلسية فالشاعر الاندلسي يلجأ الى ما ينقذه من الضغوطات النفسية والاجتماعية والسياسية وغالباً ما يوجد في الخيال ما يخفق من الامة وهناك سبب لابد من الإشارة الية ان الشاعر يمحو من ذاكرته تشوه الأمكنة الذي حدث نتيجة الحروب ويستبدلها بصوة من نسج الخيال، ولكل شاعر قدرته في التخيل وهذه القدرة تختلف من شاعر الى آخر فشعراء الاندلس في قصائد الحرب نجد عندهم تبياناً واضحاً في رسم صورة الحرب والقدرة على التخيل فمنهم من يرسم صورة في مخيلته بسيطة قريبة من الواقع ومنهم من يذهب الى اعمال الخيال.
