Comparison of Lexical and Semantic Approaches for Relevance Measurement in Quranic Verse Translation Retrieval
Authors: Fauzan Abd. Charis , Rouf M. Abd. , Prabowo Tito , Baqi Utrodus Said Al
Published: February 2025

This research explores the effectiveness of lexical and semantic approaches for relevance measurement in Quranic verse translation retrieval, focusing on Indonesian translations. Quranic verses encompass complex linguistic structures and diverse contexts, making precise retrieval challenging. Two retrieval methods were evaluated: lexical similarity, which focuses on exact word matches, and semantic similarity, which captures contextual meaning using word embeddings. The study utilized a dataset of Indonesian Quranic translations, preprocessed to normalize and tokenize text, with experimental queries derived from thematic exegesis on social responsibility. Evaluation was performed using precision, recall, and F1-score on top-5, top-10, and top-15 retrieved results. The lexical approach achieved perfect precision (100%) but exhibited lower recall (46%-58%), as it failed to retrieve relevant verses lacking exact matches. Conversely, the semantic approach demonstrated higher recall (56%-59%) and F1-scores (73%-74%) by identifying verses with contextual relevance, even in the absence of lexical similarity. The results reveal that while the lexical approach ensures precise matches, it overlooks semantic richness. The semantic approach, although computationally intensive, achieves greater contextual understanding. These findings highlight the potential for hybrid retrieval systems combining both approaches to enhance accuracy and relevance in Quranic information retrieval, supporting scholarly research and user engagement with Quranic content.

Collapse of the Filipino Armed Resistance to American Occupation, 1899 – 1905: Perspectives from Capiz
Authors: Soquiño Sarreal D.
Published: February 2025

The armed resistance to American occupation in the old province of Capiz, part of central Philippines, gradually weakened until it reached its collapse in 1905. This resistance waged by the local revolutionaries of the province of Capiz including the Aklan district was part of the simultaneous guerilla campaign by the Philippine government in Luzon and many parts of the islands of the Visayas and Mindanao against the US expeditionary army. These American troops were tasked by the McKinley administration to crush the Aguinaldo – led Philippine government and establish a colonial administration managed by the 2nd Philippine Commission. This study examined an episode of the Filipino – American War from the standpoint of the local revolutionaries and the population of Capiz. This paper probed four surrounding factors that facilitated the collapse of the resistance to the American occupation in the said province: a) weakening of the resistance movement against American forces in the island of Panay which constituted three provinces – Capiz (and Aklan), Iloilo, and Antique; b) the local principalia (Filipino middle class) saw abundant opportunities they could gain from an American colonial rule; c) deterioration of local economic production caused by the conflict which led to shortage of food supply and incidents of hunger in the province of Capiz; and d) the increase of incidents of cholera cases in epidemic form which caused thousands of deaths among the local population.
A Comprehensive Risk Assessment Framework for Addressing Hormonal and Antibiotic Residues in Meat Supply Chains in the USA
Authors: Olufemi Olatoye I. , Ayeni Olagoke , Olagoke-Komolafe Olasumbo Esther
Published: February 2025

Hormonal and antibiotic residues in meat supply chains pose significant risks to public health, environmental sustainability, and regulatory compliance in the United States. This review presents a comprehensive risk assessment framework designed to address these challenges through systematic identification, evaluation, and mitigation of residue contamination across beef, poultry, and pork production systems. The framework integrates hazard identification, exposure assessment, and risk characterization to quantify potential health impacts, including antibiotic resistance and endocrine disruption, particularly among vulnerable populations. Key sources of contamination, such as growth hormones and antibiotic overuse, are analyzed alongside pathways of environmental leakage through soil and water systems. Regulatory frameworks, including those established by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), are critically reviewed to highlight compliance gaps and enforcement challenges. The review proposes enhanced surveillance programs leveraging advanced detection technologies, such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), to ensure residue monitoring throughout the supply chain. Strategies for mitigation emphasize preventive approaches, including alternatives to antibiotics, improved livestock management practices, and blockchain-based traceability systems to enhance transparency. Stakeholder engagement and capacity building are essential components of the framework, promoting collaboration between regulators, producers, and consumers through education and training programs. Performance metrics and continuous auditing mechanisms are also recommended to assess effectiveness and enable adaptive responses to emerging risks. This framework advocates for a balanced approach that prioritizes food safety while supporting economic efficiency and sustainable agricultural practices. Future directions include the integration of artificial intelligence for predictive analytics and the development of harmonized international standards to improve residue management globally. Ultimately, this framework aims to safeguard consumer health, protect ecosystems, and strengthen the resilience of meat supply chains in the USA.

It explored their effects on creativity, writing proficiency, subject matter understanding, and academic outcomes. The research also addressed ethical concerns, including academic integrity, equity, and the development of independent writing skills. A literature review synthesized existing studies to identify gaps, evaluate methodologies, and inform new research. In exploring AI-powered writing tools like ChatGPT in English instruction, the review examined their impact on writing skills, academic outcomes, and ethical concerns such as academic integrity and independent writing, guiding AI integration strategies. The integration of AI tools, such as ChatGPT, in junior high school English writing education presents both opportunities and challenges. AI can foster creativity by helping students generate unique ideas and refine their writing with suggestions on grammar, vocabulary, and structure. It encourages engagement by offering personalized feedback, improving writing skills, and boosting motivation. However, there are ethical concerns, including potential over-reliance on AI, plagiarism, and limited critical thinking. The digital divide may also exacerbate inequities in access to technology. To address these issues, clear guidelines on AI usage, teacher training, and promoting equity in access are essential. AI should complement traditional teaching, focusing on developing students’ independent writing skills and critical thinking. Assessments should prioritize the writing process over the final product, and AI tools should be used responsibly to enhance, rather than replace, students’ cognitive and creative development.
Effects of ASUU Strike on the Quality of Pharmacy Education in Nigeria; An Assessment of Pharmacy Schools in South Eastern Nigeria
Authors: Ofomata Chijioke Maxwell , Egolum Sochima Jude
Published: February 2025

Education institutions in Nigeria have experienced socio-educational consequences due to the Academic Staff Union Universities (ASUU) power to call out workers. The decline in the quality of education among Nigerian institutions of higher learning is exacerbated by persistent strikes. Pharmacy education is crucial for producing skilled pharmacists, but the Federal Government’s negligence in agreements with the ASUU has led to longer strikes lasting up to 8 months. This study examines pharmacy education in South Eastern Nigeria following the university staff union-organized strike action. The study was conducted at the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Nnamdi Azikiwe University Awka, and the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, in Anambra and Enugu states, Nigeria. The study involved undergraduate Pharmacy students and was conducted using a random sampling technique. The sample size was 340 students, with 340 selected from each level. Lecturers of the two faculties were also sampled. A structured hybrid questionnaire was developed and validated, and data analysis was performed using a statistical package for social science (SPSS version 27). The ASUU Strike negatively impacted Nigeria’s Pharmacy Education, with more than 52% admitting negative effects on their academics. Students disagree that the strike improved performance, leading to delays in graduation and a lack of quality lectures and practical classes. The strike also affected research opportunities for pharmacy students while exposing them to anxiety, depression, and social vices. Strikes cause academic delays, limited resources, reduced faculty engagement, hindered research and training, and decreased motivation. Longer strikes also negatively affect lecturers’ finances and quality of life.

Willingness to Use Shared Micro-Mobility Services Among Unhappy Campus Bus Riders: An Ordinal Regression Analysis
Authors: Osman Mohd Haniff , Md Zainal Amirul Iddlan
Published: February 2025

Increasing users is a challenge for shared micro-mobility services at the university, but it is necessary for achieving their full potential. Students with negative experiences with the campus bus service (termed unhappy campus bus riders) may be attracted to micro-mobility due to its flexibility, convenience, and support for sustainable transport goals. Thus, this study aims to evaluate unhappy bus riders’ willingness to use micro-mobility in different scenarios. An online questionnaire was prepared for data collection, with distinct sections designed to gather both revealed and stated preferences. Revealed preference was used to identify students with negative experiences on campus buses. Then, nine scenarios based on micro-mobility adoption barriers were presented in a stated preference section to gauge unhappy bus riders' willingness to use micro-mobility under hypothetical situations. By applying ordinal logit regression analysis on the survey data collected from 308 respondents living on the main campus of the National University of Malaysia, it is found that four out of seven types of bus experiences significantly affect unhappy bus riders’ willingness to use micro-mobility in three scenarios. The results from regression analyses proposed four separate ordinal logit models, each with a single type of negative experience as a predictor variable to calculate the likelihood of micro-mobility use in the future. We believe that the findings of our study can help the university's mobility department identify a new micro-mobility user segment. Consequently, they can devise specific strategies to promote micromobility options for students travelling short distances on campus.

Published: February 2025

Abstract - Aim This study aimed to evaluate the association between screen time and health behaviors (physical activity and healthy eating habits) in adolescents. Methods: A cross-sectional school-based study was conducted on 1233 adolescents (13 - 19 years) from private and public schools of Pelotas, RS, Brazil. Participants reported sociodemographic and behavioral (i.e., physical activity, food intake, and screen time) characteristics via questionnaire. Screen time was assessed as the sum of the time spent in the following activities: watching TV, using a computer, and playing video games. Results: A negative effect in screen time was observed in adolescents who engaged in 16 min or more of active commuting per day (β = -1.02 95%CI -1.79 to -0.24). A similar effect was observed in adolescents who reported a daily intake of breakfast (β = -0.81 95%CI -1.40 to -0.22), fruits (β = -0.60 95%CI -1.18 to -0.01), and vegetables (β = -0.99 95%CI -1.70 to -0.28). Conclusion: A healthy lifestyle, such as engaging in active commuting and having healthy eating habits, was associated with a reduced time spent in sedentary screen-based activities.
IS DOING A COMPLETE AUTOPSY AIDING IN REACHING THE CAUSE OF DEATH IN PAKISTAN?
Authors: Zia Asim , Ahmed Faiza , Haq Zia ul , Ijaz Farhat , Zafar Amjad , Malik Aamenah
Published: February 2025

Background: One of the primary objectives of a forensic autopsy is to establish the cause of death. Various approaches may be taken to decide the extent of the autopsy required for a particular case. In Pakistan, all bodies found under suspicious circumstances are mandated by law to undergo a complete autopsy after registration of a first information report (FIR) by the police. This study aimed to compare and analyze the cause of death recorded in the police FIR before the autopsy is performed and the final autopsy report after a complete, 3-cavity autopsy has been done. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study analyzed records of postmortem examinations carried out at a single, tertiary-level autopsy center between June 2009 to July 2018. The study included 769 reports of complete autopsies performed and compared the cause of death stated in the final autopsy report to the FIR recorded by the police. Results: Of the 769 autopsies included, based on a comparison of the cause of death between police FIR and autopsy reports, five different groups were established. 504 (65.5%) cases were categorized as “similar”, 74 (9.6%) cases as “dissimilar”, 72 cases (9.4%) had no cause of death mentioned in the FIR, 65 cases (8.5%) had no cause of death mentioned in the autopsy report and 54 cases (7%) neither the FIR nor the autopsy report stated any cause of death. The leading cause of death noted to be similar in FIR and autopsy was from firearm injuries. Conclusion: A large proportion of the cases included in the study had similar causes of death recorded in the FIR, documented before the autopsy was done and the autopsy report. The value of doing a complete autopsy stands questioned and it may be advisable to look into adopting alternate practices as seen in other parts of the world. Moreover, outdated, or absent guidelines for the actual carrying out of autopsies must be looked into and policies/ legislations surrounding it reviewed. Key Words: Autopsy, Cause of death

Authors: Kırcalı Ekin , Kendi Çelebi Zeynep , Erdoğmuş Şiyar , Keven Kenan , Duman Neval
Published: February 2025

Aims: This study aims to evaluate changes in systolic pulmonary artery pressure (sPAP) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD)
patients before and after kidney transplantation, as well as the prevalence and impact of pulmonary hypertension (pHT) on
post-transplant outcomes.
Methods: A total of 87 ESRD patients undergoing kidney transplantation at the Nephrology Department of Ankara University Faculty of Medicine were prospectively followed. Demographic data, pretransplant, and posttransplant (3rd and 12th months) serum tests, as well as echocardiographic measurements, were analyzed. Patients with pHT due to non-renal causes were excluded. Mean systolic pulmonary artery pressure was measured echocardiographically and a level of above 30 mmHg was accepted as pHT. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS, with a p-value <0.05 considered statistically significant.
Results: Among the 87 patients, 40 (45.9%) were male and 47 (54.1%) were female, with a mean age of 42.6±11.7 years. The mean pretransplant sPAP was 36.6±7.97 mmHg, which decreased significantly to 31.7±5.5 mmHg at 3 months and 30.1±6.2 mmHg at 12 months post-transplant (p<0.05). Pretransplant pHT was present in 72.4% of patients, which reduced to 36.7% at 3 months and 22.9% at 12 months post-transplant. Preoperative triglyceride and parathormone levels were significantly correlated with sPAP (p<0.05), while patients with pretransplant sPAP ?40 mmHg had a higher incidence of early graft dysfunction (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Pulmonary hypertension is prevalent in patients with ESRD but significantly decreases after kidney transplantation. Patients with preoperative sPAP ?40 mmHg are at higher risk for early graft dysfunction, highlighting the importance of screening for pHT in transplant candidates. Addressing pHT in ESRD patients may improve post-transplant outcomes, reduce morbidity, and enhance overall patient management.
Magnesium, calcium and vitamin D levels in polycystic ovarian syndrome: a retrospective single center study
Authors: Kılıç Resul , Erdem Mehmet , Aslan Mehmet
Published: February 2025

Aims: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS); It is an endocrine-gynecological disorder that affects many women of reproductive age, with chronic anovulation and androgen elevation. Although many pathophysiological processes have been discovered in the development of PCOS; The exact etiology and pathophysiology have not been fully elucidated. Vitamin D is synthesized differently from other vitamins and vitamin D has a hormonal function in the body. Vitamin D is known to have a role in many diseases, as well as its effects on bone metabolism in the body. We aimed to examine the relationship between PCOS and serum vitamin D, calcium and magnesium levels.
Methods: A total of 80 cases, including 40 patients diagnosed with PCOS according to the Rotterdam criteria and 40 cases in the normal population, were included in the study. The cases were examined retrospectively. Magnesium, calcium and vitamin D levels of all cases were compared. Additionally, the hemogram parameters, insulin, glucose, insulin resistance, HbA1c, high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, triglyceride, total cholesterol, parathormone and phosphorus levels of the cases were compared.
Results: There was no difference in magnesium, calcium, vitamin D values between cases with and without polycystic ovary syndrome, and no difference in hemogram parameters, HbA1c, glucose, insulin, parathormone and phosphorus levels between the same groups (p>0.05). When lipid levels were compared, total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein levels were found to be significantly higher in those without PCOS (p = 0.042). The average age was found to be significantly lower in patients with PCOS (p<0.001).
Conclusion: In our study, no significant difference was seen between the two groups in terms of magnesium, calcium and vitamin D levels. Prospective observational studies and randomized controlled studies are needed to more clearly explain the relationship between hormonal and metabolic irregularities and magnesium, calcium and vitamin D levels in PCOS.

Published: February 2025

Aims: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. This study aimed to
investigate the impact of Epstein-Barr virus RNA (EBER) positivity on the prognosis of patients diagnosed with DLBCL.
Methods: This retrospective study was conducted on 105 patients diagnosed with DLBCL at Sivas Cumhuriyet University
Hospital between June 1, 2009, and May 31, 2022.
Results: Of the 105 patients, 55.2% were male, and the mean age was 56.89 years. EBER positivity was detected in 4.8% of the patients. While 71% of EBER-negative patients achieved a complete response, overall survival and progression-free survival were shorter in EBER-positive patients. However, no significant relationship was observed between EBER positivity and prognostic indices (IPI, R-IPI, NCCN-IPI).
Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that EBER positivity could act as a prognostic indicator, given its association
with unfavorable survival rates and diminished response to treatment in individuals with DLBCL.
Corpul invalid în modernismul periferic: Hortensia Papadat-Bengescu, între import și autohtonism
Authors: Gorgan Irina
Published: February 2025

This article presents a socio-literary analysis of the “invalid body” as depicted in Hortensia Papadat-Bengescu’s novels Disheveled Virgins (Fecioarele despletite, 1926) and Concert from Bach’s Music (Concert din muzică de Bach, 1927), within the context of the rise of eugenicist ideologies in interwar Romania. By comparing these portrayals of disability with representations of illness in other contemporary European novels, I explore the anachronistic relationship between the peripheral literary space of Romania and the central literary cultures of England and France. The methodology combines disability studies with key theoretical frameworks, including dysmodernism (Davis, 2019) and the concepts of the dys-/disarticulated (Berger, 2014), which are instrumental in understanding the depiction of the disabled body in 20th century European literature. I argue that the scientific discourses serve as a key factor in the social marginalization of the invalid characters in Papadat-Bengescu’s novels, where illness is not portrayed as the result of personal or psychological trauma but rather as a direct consequence of genetic inheritance. Through this analysis, I aim to highlight the terminological and conceptual differences between the literary center and periphery, focusing on the cultural reception of Papadat-Bengescu’s work in Romania and its social and ideological implications within the broader European context.

Las narrativas sobre la producción de petróleo y gas en Colombia y Nigeria después del Acuerdo de París
Authors: Strambo Claudia , Ivleva Daria , Arond Elisa
Published: February 2025

Los casos de Colombia y Nigeria ilustran cómo los discursos sobre la producción de petróleo y gas, incluidos los roles que los gobiernos les asignan en términos de desarrollo, seguridad energética, influencia regional y las transiciones energéticas, contribuyen a afianzar la dependencia de actividades económicas con altas emisiones de carbono.

Muchos de los argumentos y conceptos en los que se basan estos discursos son parciales, inexactos, están desfasados o se han simplificado en exceso.

Las organizaciones de la sociedad civil pueden rebatir estos discursos cuestionando las pruebas con que se sustentan, abogando por la transparencia en la producción de los combustibles fósiles y respaldando el desarrollo de narrativas sólidas, y fundamentadas en evidencias sobre un futuro próspero y equitativo más allá de los combustibles fósiles.

Las organizaciones de la sociedad civil y los investigadores pueden abogar por políticas climáticas más ambiciosas en países con menor dependencia y mayor capacidad para abandonar la producción de combustibles fósiles.
