Published: July 2023

In order to scale-up the economic, social, cultural and political development in the rural areas of Nigeria, Federal, State and Local governments have embarked on several poverty alleviation programmes and other social welfare schemes. However, in many countries, women are prevented from working for socio-cultural reasons. Women face inequalities and challenges that hinder their access to jobs, training, education, properties, land, financial and non-financial opportunities. This study therefore focused on rural women’s participation in community development activities in Akoko South-West Local Government Area, Ondo state, Nigeria. Multi-stage sampling procedures were adopted to select 120 respondents for the study. Five objectives and one hypothesis were formulated for the study. Well-structured questionnaire/interview schedule was used to elicit information from the respondents. Findings from the study revealed that there is low participation of rural women in community development activities which may result from the constraints the women faced in their participation such as poor community cooperation and dialogue, lack of sustainability of projects, inadequate access to credit and low-income base, poor infrastructures especially good road networks, poor monitoring and evaluation. The results of the hypothesis revealed that family size, years of experience, marital status and income at p< 0.005 had effect on the rural women’s participation respectively. It was therefore recommended that efforts should be made to promote community cooperation and dialogue among rural women through the organisation of regular meetings and forums for women to discuss their concerns, needs and ideas.

DKE durumu, triadın merkezi veya etiyolojik faktörüdür: Besinlerden alınan enerjinin hem egzersizin/antrenmanın enerji ihtiyacını hem de vücudun büyüme, bağışıklık ve üreme fonksiyonları ile termoregülasyon dahil olmak üzere temel fizyolojik fonksiyonlarını karşılamak için çok düşük (yetersiz) olması durumunda ortaya çıkan bir durumdur. Bu durumun, enerji alımındaki azalmadan veya enerji harcamasındaki artıştan kaynaklanabileceği belirtilmektedir. DKE’ye maruz kalan bir sporcu, normal vücut fonksiyonlarını sürdürecek enerjiden yoksundur ve vücudun bir enerji tasarrufuna gitmesi gerekmektedir. DKE’den kaynaklanan kadın sporcu triadı ile ilişkili menstrual bozukluklar, kas-iskelet sistemini ve kardiyovasküler sağlığı olumsuz etkileyebilmekte, tedavi edilmediği taktirde her yıl kemik kütlesinde yaklaşık %2-3 kayba neden olabilmektedir. Triadın tedavisi, multidisipliner bir yaklaşım gerektirir. Sağlık profesyonelleri, antrenörler ve aileler arasındaki iş birliği oldukça önemlidir. Triadın her bir bileşeninin tedavisi farklı sürelerde gerçekleşmekle birlikte temelinde kullanılabilir enerjinin iyileştirilmesi yatmaktadır.

Authors: Jahnavi Yarragunta Suma , Kumar Veena Sanath
Published: August 2023

In this study, we evaluated the performance of an 8-bit carry-select adder (CSA) implemented through transmission gates for various metrics such as speed and area. Adders are an important part of digital computer systems and are used to perform additional operations. CSA is a well-known adder type known for its fast performance. Our results suggest that CSA implemented using transmission gates may improve the performance of digital circuits by achieving faster performance due to the low resistance and fast switching properties of these gates. In addition, we also analyzed the area utilization of CSA by measuring the number of transistors in the synthesized design. The integration of transmission gates into the CSA can affect area characteristics and our analysis provides insight into the design's area efficiency. CSA was developed in this study using transmission gate technology along with MTCMOS D-latch to achieve superior performance compared to previous studies. Simulations were performed using 250nm CMOS technology from Tanner and Mentor Graphics. His CSA implementation with transmission gate logic significantly reduced transistor count by 58.85% compared to his conventional CSA. This approach was chosen for its better results and improved overall performance.

Published: July 2023

This study explores the extent of altruism practiced by teachers and their willingness to sacrifice for the welfare of others. Using a quantitative research approach with a descriptive-survey design, the study examines the profile of respondents, including their sex, age, civil status, years of teaching, and grade level taught. Additionally, the research investigates the respondents' level of altruism and the motivating factors behind their altruistic behavior. The study also explores whether there is a significant association between the extent of altruism and the profile variables, as well as the reasons motivating altruistic behavior. The participants in this research comprised 31 (45%) male respondents, 36 (52%) female respondents, and 2 (3%) respondents who did not specify their age. Most respondents fell within the age bracket of 20-24 years (41%), with the least number of respondents aged between 55-59 years (3%). The majority of teachers had 0-3 years of teaching experience (46.38%), while only a few had 24-27 years of experience (1.45%). In terms of civil status, the majority were single (71.01%), while a smaller percentage were married (17.39%). Regarding teaching grade level, most respondents taught at the Junior High level (42.03%), followed by the Primary level (29%) and Senior High level (19%). The study found that teachers generally practiced altruism frequently and to a significant extent (M= 2.45, SD= 0.90). Specifically, the teachers were highly motivated to sincerely help students (M= 2.06, SD= 0.83). Analyzing the association between the extent of altruistic behavior and profile variables revealed a significant connection between the respondents' sex and their propensity to live for others (p-value= 0.036). Furthermore, a significant association was observed between the extent of altruistic behavior and the teaching grade level when grouped (p-value = 0.022). Based on the findings, it can be concluded that female teachers tend to exhibit more altruistic behavior than their male counterparts, and Primary teachers with a student-centered approach are significantly more altruistic compared to teachers at other grade levels. The study suggests several recommendations: 1) Male teachers should enhance their socio-affective skills, including compassion, generosity, and prosocial motivation. 2) Junior and Senior high school teachers should focus on practicing altruism more effectively, investing more time and patience with their students. 3) Respondents should be exposed to programs or activities that encourage the practice of authentic altruism to a significant extent

To achieve these objectives, a mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews. A representative sample of college students from various institutions in Surigao was selected for the study. Participants were asked to complete questionnaires assessing their exposure to and consumption of fake news, along with its perceived impact on their political beliefs, educational pursuits, and general mindset. Furthermore, focus group interviews were conducted to gain deeper insights into how specific demographic characteristics might mediate these effects. The findings of this study provided valuable insights into the repercussions of fake news on college students. It was discovered that exposure to fake news significantly influenced students' political views, often leading to polarization and misinformation-driven beliefs. Moreover, the impact on their educational endeavors was evident, as the spread of fake news could disrupt critical thinking and lead to the dissemination of false information within academic contexts. Additionally, students' mindsets were found to be vulnerable to manipulation through the spread of misinformation, affecting their decision-making processes and worldview. Regarding demographic differences, age was observed to play a crucial role, with younger students being more susceptible to the effects of fake news due to their higher reliance on digital media. Sex and grade level, however, did not exhibit significant variations in response to fake news dissemination. In conclusion, this study emphasizes the importance of addressing the impact of fake news on college students and highlights the need for educational interventions that promote media literacy and critical thinking skills. By understanding the factors that mediate the influence of fake news, educators, policymakers, and stakeholders can develop targeted strategies to mitigate its adverse effects on the younger generation, fostering a more informed and discerning society

Interlingual Subtitling of Ethno/Cultural Representation in Selected Episodes of Yahya and Kunooz Animated TV Series (2022)
Authors: Alkhayat Marwa , Akram Amal , Afify Salma
Published: July 2023

The present study examines Audiovisual Translation (AVT) strategies in selected episodes of Yahya and Kunooz animated TV Series (2022). AVT is quite a unique sub-discipline of Translation Studies (TS) due to its polysemiotic nature in which it functions on verbal, acoustic and visual levels. Within this rationale, the study conducts an interrogation of the verbal auditory or acoustic channel, the non-verbal auditory channel, the verbal visual channel, e.g. written signs on the screen and the non-verbal visual channel. As such, the aim of the study is to scrutinize the constraints and challenges that the AVT translators face during the subtitling process within the paradigm of translation strategies. The present study is carried out within the boundaries of the target-oriented approach developed by Gideon Toury and the foreignization/domestication approaches developed by Lawrence Venuti to interrogate culture-bound characteristics. Foreignization as a translation strategy seems principally appropriate for a historical and cultural text to recreate the source text in target language in such a way that the reader or the audience would feel the cultural effect of the source text. The contribution of the research is hopefully twofold. One, it is the first-ever study of Yahay and Kunooz Series in the academia; the other, this study incites further studies in the future to develop a comprehensive and sound-based theoretical frame for AVT.

Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a chronic immune-mediated disease characterized by microangiopathy, immune dysregulation, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Though not fully understood, the pathogenesis of SSc is dominated by microvascular injury, endothelial dysregulation, and immune response that are thought to be associated with fibroblast activation and related fibrogenesis. Among the main clinical subsets, diffuse SSc (dSSc) is a progressive form with rapid and disseminated skin thickening accompanied by internal organ fibrosis and dysfunction. Despite recent advances and multiple randomized clinical trials in early dSSc patients, an effective disease-modifying treatment for progressive skin fibrosis is still missing, and there is a crucial need to identify new targets for therapeutic intervention. Eotaxin-2 (CCL24) is a chemokine secreted by immune cells and epithelial cells, which promotes trafficking of immune cells and activation of pro-fibrotic cells through CCR3 receptor binding. Higher levels of CCL24 and CCR3 were found in the skin and sera of patients with SSc compared with healthy controls; elevated levels of CCL24 and CCR3 were associated with fibrosis and predictive of greater lung function deterioration. Growing evidence supports the potency of a CCL24-blocking antibody as an anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic modulating agent in multiple preclinical models that involve liver, skin, and lung inflammation and fibrosis. This review highlights the role of CCL24 in orchestrating immune, vascular, and fibrotic pathways, and the potential of CCL24 inhibition as a novel treatment for SSc.
