Published: August 2022

Background: According to World health organization anemia is most common among females during pregnancy and child birth. Maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality is high due to anemia in pregnancy as it is a contributing factor in poor pregnancy outcome. It is the main cause of maternal death, almost 29% of women die due to anemia in pregnancy. Half of the maternal mortality causes are related to anemia in pregnancy either directly or indirectly. What so ever is the cause of anemia in pregnancy, its management is important for mother and child health. The consequences of anemia have serious health implications especially among pregnant females. Methodology: The cross-sectional study was conducted to find prevalence of anemia during first, second and third trimester of pregnancy and factors related to cause of anemia. A total of 340 pregnant females of government and private hospitals of Lahore city during the period from February 2017 to August 2018 were included in study after sample size calculation through convenient sampling. Sociodemographic, economic status, education level, number of children born to females and gestational period were the factors that were studied among anemic pregnant females. Data analysis was done and frequencies of continuous variables and descriptive analysis for categorical variables were determined. Prevalence of anemia was determined by multinomial logistic regression. Results: Our study showed females were with mean age 27.9 (±SD=5.4) and in age group 31-39 years (53.8%) were more anemic during pregnancy as compared to females <30 years of age. Most of the females (67.1%) were housewives and had primary level of education (49.1%). Among these females (30%) were with mild anemia, (53.5%) were with moderate anemia and (16.5%) were with severe anemia. The mean hemoglobin level was 9.8g/dl (SD=±1.6). Among pregnant females 152(45%) were anemic during third trimester of pregnancy. Result showed 167(48.8%) females were anemic having children > 3. Sociodemographic factors, education level, number of children born to female, economic status all were significantly associated with moderate anemia during pregnancy (p=0.00). Conclusion: Our study showed that although the prevalence of anemia is more among pregnant females but the severe anemia was less. So, it is a preventable health problem which can be controlled by different public health approaches to reduce the burden of disease on the health system. The strategies to control anemia in reproductive age women is important to prevent it among pregnant women. the early diagnosis and immediate correction of anemia is important to reduce the complications of pregnancy and its poor outcome. Early identification of factors is significantly important in managing the problem. Keywords: anemia, pregnancy, prevalence of anemia, gestational period.

Published: August 2022

Introduction: Stress urinary incontinence is defined as involuntary loss of urine on physical exertion like coughing, sneezing, laughing or jumping. This condition in women is very distressing and it is usually kept disguised, so women remain untreated. This condition also causes feeling of inferiority and depression. There are different risk factors identified in causing urinary stress incontinence like constipation, traumatic and operative vaginal births, pelvic organ prolapse, abdominal mass, smoking, obesity, old age and menopause. The present study is design to know the actual magnitude of stress incontinence. There by strategies could be devised to reduce this morbidity. Objective: To determine the frequency of urinary stress incontinence in women after vaginal delivery Setting: This study was conducted at ISRA University Hospital, Hyderabad. Duration: Six months from Jan 2020 to June 2020. Design: Descriptive cross sectional. Subject and Methods: There were 141 women with history of urinary incontinence within 40 days of vaginal delivery were included in this study. Patient who fulfill the inclusion and exclusion criteria and came within forty days after vaginal delivery. The final outcome that is urinary stress incontinence was labeled as positive or negative on approved proforma. Results: The average age of the patients was 26.75±5.72 years. Frequency of urinary stress incontinence in women after vaginal delivery was observed in 14.18% (20/141). Conclusion: Results of this study suggest that the mechanical strain during labor may add to the risk associated with pregnancy itself. Prenatal counseling about routes of delivery should provide a balanced account of the advantages and disadvantages for mother and child. The information from this study provides important information for clinicians, patients, and policymakers regarding childbirth and incontinence.

Published: August 2022

Introduction: Properties of GI luting cements are influenced by complex oral environment. This in-vitro study is designed to simulate oral conditions for better understanding behavior of GI luting cement in oral cavity and to evaluate its solubility. Fluctuating oral environment from acidic to alkaline is thought to cause solubility of luting agent, which insults the integrity of luting agents leading to micro leakage and ultimately luting failure of restorations. An attempt via this study was made to funnel powder liquid ratio for dental practice by exposing different P/L ratio to varying pHs of artificial saliva solution. Materials and Methods: Four groups of specimens were prepared using different powder liquid ratios (Group A 1:2, group B 1:3, group C 1.5:3 and group D 2:3S). Specimens were desiccated for 2 hours in hot air oven and weighted with digital analytical balance. Specimens were immersed in respective artificial saliva for a week, desiccated for 2 hours, weighed and solubility was calculated. Micrographs of specimens were taken with scanning electron microscope. Descriptive statistics such as mean, range and standard deviation values were presented as tables and charts. variation of means amongst groups were analysed using One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). P value of ≤ 0.05 was considered significant Results: Solubility of specimens immersed in acidic artificial saliva solution showed elevated solubility. One-way ANOVA showed statistically significant results, Tukey’s HSD showed that specimen of group A2 showed elevated solubility of 0.000246790 g/mm3 and specimens of group D1 showed less solubility of 0.000003466g/mm3. Conclusion: Unlike manufacturer recommended P/L ratio, this study concluded that P/L ratio of 2:3 is a better GI luting cement as it exhibited least solubility in both acidic and basic environments.

Epistemología Náhuat: un análisis pedagógico a través de la anatomía
Authors: Lara-Martínez Rafael , Molina Aguilar Jorge
Published: August 2022

El texto reflexiona sobre la pedagogía como práctica educativa desde el idioma náhuat. Incursiona en la diversidad cultural en materia educativa y en los sistemas pedagógicos de los pueblos originarios, lo cual se conoce como interculturalidad y pedagogía. Así, facilita la incursión del desarrollo de competencias interculturales en contextos educativos. El texto indaga cómo las partes del cuerpo se relacionan con conceptos filosóficos. De ese modo, se profundiza en la manera en que la anatomía se vuelve abstracta, y para ello se analiza lo siguiente: i) un esquema del cuerpo con sus partes y nombres; ii) una revisión en diccionarios y textos de anatomía clásica para describir las partes del cuerpo, su sentido literal y luego cómo se correlacionan a conceptos abstractos, por ejemplo: ma-kwi-l = 5 = mano/agarra/pasivo, es decir, la mano significa el “conteo” o la aritmética. Otro ejemplo, yul-tuk = vivo = corazón-participio = acorazonado, por tanto, el corazón no denota sólo el órgano, sino el movimiento de la vida misma, el proceso vital de toda existencia.

Bridging Multilingual Families and Schools: Cultural Brokering as Social Justice Leadership Practice
Authors: Lewis Grant Kristine S , Lee Vera J. , Hoekje Barbara , Escalante Karena
Published: August 2022

School districts across the United States employ cultural brokers to help facilitate the involvement of multilingual families in their children’s schools. These liaisons build bridges over the cultural and language barriers that limit educational access and opportunities for multilingual families and their children. Despite the central role that cultural brokers play in fostering equitable and inclusive schools, their leadership may be unrecognized. In this qualitative case study, we examine the cultural brokering work performed by multilingual counseling assistants (MCAs) in two K-8 schools in a diverse urban school district in the northeastern United States. The primary data are face-to-face semi-structured interviews with three MCAs from the Burmese and Spanish-speaking school communities. We provide examples of how MCAs leverage the families’ cultural capital in various dimensions of social justice leadership. This study demonstrates the role of MCAs as social justice leaders in making schools more equitable and inclusive communities. This study argues that leadership can be a distributed practice within schools not limited to formal school administration.

Sustainable intensification of oil palm plantations faces the challenge of decreasing soil fertility and increasing the price of inorganic fertilizers. Organic matter plays an important role in maintaining soil fertility. Empty fruit bunches (EFB) are the main co-product of palm oil mills that have the potential to be used as a source of organic matter and nutrient sources. This study aims to reveal the effect of the application of empty fruit bunches in increasing the effectiveness and substituting inorganic fertilizers for the components of oil palm production. The number of female inflorescence, the number of FFB and the average weight of FFB were observed for 3 years on palm aged 8, 9 and 10 years. Application of EFB + 70% recommended inorganic fertilizer. The recommended fertilizer is 8 kg per tree (N P K Mg 14-28-6-2 +0.5 B). EFB are applied as one layer of mulch with a size of 3x4 m on a dead net. The results showed that the application of empty bunches could increase the number of female flowers and the number of FFB in plants aged 9 and 10 years (1-2 years after application), while inorganic fertilizer EFB was only at the age of 8 years (0 years after application) for both production components. FFB weight one year after application of EFB+70% inorganic fertilizer (age 9 years ) was higher than 8 and 10 year aged  plants. The application of EFB+70% inorganic fertilizer can increase the contribution of nutrients from fertilizers compared to the application of inorganic fertilizers solely.
The Cohesion of Schools as Communities in the Management of COVID-19 Pan- demic: Reflections, Narratives, Fears and Hopes from the Voices of Children in Eng- land and Italy

Published: August 2022

The classroom can be a community of dialogic practices where personal and cultural identities are constructed and negotiated and a key context for integration of children with migrant background. However, for the first time in many decades, children across Europe, and globally, have been removed from their primary contexts of socialisation in the public health scramble to contain the pandemic, primarily through extended lockdowns. The consequences of the management of the COVID-19 pandemic on the cohesion of schools as intercultural communities of learning impacted on teachers, children and families. Public health measures to contain the COVID-19 pandemic affect the quality of children’s learning experience and deny access to the classroom as a space of socialisation and intercultural dialogue. Developing from the analysis of 50 focus groups with children in Italian and English primary and secondary schools, this contribution discusses the perspective of children on how the management of the pandemic: 1) impacted on the learning experience, in particular the progression of children with limited access to suitable spaces and resources for home learning; 2) affected the networks of social relationships and intercultural dialogue that have the classroom as their substratum.
Caring and Power-Sharing: How Dialogue Influences Community Sustainability
Authors: Conti Luisa
Published: August 2022

Dialogue is a concept replete with great potentiality for the re-orientating process towards the more inclusive transformation of society, which indeed the Covid-19 pandemic has made even more urgent. This study verifies this statement, while also identifying the specific factors which have had a meaningful impact upon the engagement of people, embedded in their various communities. The undertaken research shows that these factors –related to the agents’ own role in the community, to their personal relationship with others and to their own perception of the general context– are interdependent and intersubjective. Indeed, feedback loops have emerged with an evident impact on the well-being of the community members and, therefore, of the community itself. The analysis of the data shows that a genuine dialogic culture, defined as a culture of acknowledging differences, embracing them with respectful openness and facilitating their expression through a non-hierarchical attitude, fosters positive feedback loops and, therefore, the development of sustainable communities. Communities, on the other hand, in which exclusion is tolerated place themselves in danger. The widespread reproduction of subtle discriminating practices, which were observed also in the framework of this study, remain thus alarming. Underlying the research design is indeed the formation process of international online communities in the context of an online simulation game. The crossmatching of the individual reflections of the members and the observation of their behaviour shows how their actions and interactions are entangled with handed down power structures, such as racism and sexism. Establishing an inclusive community implies therefore one fundamental condition: tackling the reproduction of power dynamics through conscious power-sharing.
Exploring the Potential of Cross-Regional Dialogue Platforms in Protracted Con- flict Settings

Protracted conflicts like those in the South Caucasus and Moldova stand as examples of the limits of international peace-building practices in addressing conflict transformation in various ethnic-marked conflicts, and in promoting reconciliation across the deep divides that these long-standing conflicts have generated within and among societies. A major challenge to supporting the transformation of protracted conflicts is that the conflict settings have been solidified as a new normality, and the polarised division between neighbours and within societies has been institutionalised. To address these challenges, we conceptualise cross-regional dialogue as a third-party facilitated process that brings together actors from various protracted conflict settings thus ensuring a greater diversity of opinions and societal standings. Cross-regional formats of dialogue, in our view, provide a space for suspending the dominant mutual antagonisms and for creative thinking about new horizons for the shared future. They enable participants and organisers to break away from the problem-solving paradigm as well as from the bilateral format of dialogues concentrated on one conflict, and thus they can be seen to provide safe spaces for dialogue in the midst of protracted conflicts.

Published: August 2022

Keberadaan Kampung Ramah Anak tidak terlepas dari berbagai peran tokoh, proses interaksi sosial yang dilakukan oleh masyarakat. Mekanisme pembentukan desa ramah anak tidak melalui penunjukan melainkan lebih menekankan pada kesadaran masyarakat setempat. Lembaga ini dibentuk pada 26 Juni 2019 dan sudah memiliki satgas dan Forum Anak. Organisasi yang relatif baru ini membuat mereka belum terorganisir dalam hal program atau kegiatan yang akan dilakukan. Selain itu, forum anak yang terdiri dari anak-anak masih dalam tahap pembelajaran dan pendampingan tentang bagaimana membentuk dan melaksanakan kegiatan tentang Desa Layak Anak. Bentuk kegiatan dalam pengabdian ini diawali dengan diskusi dengan pihak pengelola, dilanjutkan dengan melakukan observasi di lokasi. Hasil diskusi dengan pihak pengelola diperoleh rancangan program yang ditindaklanjuti dengan pendampingan dalam hal perencanaan dan penguatan organisasi, sedangkan kegiatan observasi dilakukan dengan mengunjungi beberapa tempat yang digunakan dalam kegiatan desa ramah anak seperti balai, taman bacaan anak , dan lingkungan di RW 01 Giwangan. Partisipasi mitra ditunjukkan dengan keikutsertaan dalam kegiatan diskusi masalah yang dihadiri oleh ketua, sekretaris, dan 2 orang anggota satgas, sedangkan kegiatan pendampingan dihadiri oleh ketua, sekretaris, dan 2 perwakilan Forum Anak. Tahapan pelaksanaan kegiatan pengabdian ini dilakukan melalui tiga tahap penyelesaian yaitu penguatan fungsi, pemberian materi, dan kelengkapan dokumen kelembagaan.
An Exploration of Thai ESP Teachers’ Self-Efficacy and Sources Concerning Course Development and Instruction
Authors: Khakhai Kanokpoj , Taylor Pimsiri
Published: August 2022

Challenges of English for specific purposes (ESP) course development and instruction have still been reported in a number of studies. They could affect ESP teachers’ belief and confidence in their ability to do such tasks. This qualitative case study explores the development of self-efficacy, along with source information concerning challenges in course development and instruction. The study case took place in a Thai university’s institution where eight ESP teachers participated in this exploration. Through multiple interview sessions, they revealed source information and different ways to develop self-efficacy. Findings included that cognitive and enactive mastery experience were the most influential sources derived from their educational background and success in implementing pedagogical elements in their actual practices. Vicarious experience and verbal persuasion appeared to be scant due to the underlying contextual factors related to the institutional policies explored in the case. Physiological and emotional states proved to be less influential and acted as supplementary sources of influence. The current study also highlights the influence of contextual factors’ shaping sources of self-efficacy and the development. Indeed, the lack of collaborative practices diminished vicarious experience and verbal persuasion so that individual teachers relied on their knowledge and experience as mastery experience to be efficacious. Research implications focus on policies where collaborative culture development is included. A suggested plan is to employ professional learning communities (PLC) to develop internal collaboration (e.g., sharing knowledge and practices to improve self-efficacy sources and development).

De veldhamster als stadsbewoner: ruimtelijke en temporele dynamiek van soortenbescherming onder de Habitatrichtlijn

Het begrip broed- en rustplaatsen van strikt beschermde soorten uit artikel 12 lid 1 onder d Habitatrichtlijn moet zowel ruimtelijk als temporeel ruim worden geïnterpreteerd in overeenstemming met de doelstelling van deze richtlijn: het in stand houden van de natuurlijke habitats en de wilde flora en fauna op het Europese grondgebied van de lidstaten. Voor het ruimtelijk aspect betekent dit dat de bescherming van strikt beschermde soorten van artikel 12 lid 1 onder d zich mede uitstrekt tot de directe omgeving van de voortplantingsplaatsen. Temporeel betekent dit dat deze bescherming zich uitstrekt tot voortplantingsplaatsen die niet meer worden bewoond, wanneer de kans voldoende groot is dat de betrokken diersoort naar die plaatsen zal terugkeren. Het begrip ‘beschadiging’ ziet in dat kader op de achteruitgang, geleidelijke verzwakking en de verdwijning van voortplantingsplaatsen. Het Hof van Justitie verwijst voor de interpretatie van deze begrippen naar de richtsnoeren van de Commissie betreffende soortenbescherming.
