CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF SECTION 226 OF KENYA PENAL CODE: A CASE FOR URGENT REFORM
Authors: Ochieng Olayo , Kamau Lewis 
Published: October 2021

Purpose: The aim of this paper was to critically analyze the provision of section 226 of Kenya penal code that provides for criminalization of suicide attempt.
Methodology: The research paper was exploratory in nature and was based on secondary data. A number of research papers, journals and articles published in renowned websites are studied to build conceptual basis of decriminalization of attempted suicide in Kenya. Valuable insights about the suicide have been gathered from various websites.
Results: The found that although decriminalizing suicide is important, it is not enough. The paper found that suicide is more of a health problem than a crime. It noted that modern day constitution framework in many countries including South Africa and Kenya have provided that every person right to the highest attainable health standard, including the right to healthcare services. This is thus an indication that suicide as mental health problem should be given the required attention.
Unique contribution to theory, practice and policy: The government needs to move and put major efforts to enhance the overall mental health in the country including sufficient budget allocation. This will reduce the burden of suicide and mental health. Thus, there is a need for a comprehensive health program to reduce its incidence. Furthermore, the stigma attached with suicides will only recede if the government and the social sector take a proactive role in spreading anti‑suicide awareness.
How Many Trials are Needed to Assess Ankle Joint Proprioception in Children with Chronic Ankle Instability?
Authors: Kunritt Jaruta , Lekskulchai Raweewan , Wattananon Peemongkon 
Published: October 2021

The assessment of ankle joint repositioning is commonly used to detect joint impairment in people with chronic ankle instability (CAI). To decrease measurement fluctuation errors, it has been suggested that an average of 10 measurements be utilized. However, learning and tiredness difficulties, particularly in children, might make this difficult. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the repeatability of 3 and 10 measures of ankle joint repositioning using an isokinetic dynamometer (Biodex) in children with CAI. Ten children with CAI with an average age of 11.21 years were recruited in the study. The ankle inversion and eversion angles for 3 and 10 trials using active and passive reproduction protocols were recorded using Biodex Multi-Joint System 4TM. The error of reproduction angle was presented by the mean, correlation, and percentage changes for both active and passive reposition angles. The means of the error for ankle joint reproduction angles revealed no significant differences between 3 and 10 trials for both active and passive protocols (p > 0.05). The ICC(3,1) revealed high correlations between 3 and 10 trials of assessments (ICC(3,1) = 0.82 - 0.91). The percentage changes of means and standard deviations showed learning effect of ankle joint proprioception measurement after the 4th and the 5th trials for inversion and eversion, respectively. Therefore, to prevent learning and fatigue effects, a 3-trial protocol would be more appropriate than a 10-trial protocol. However, a 4-trial protocol and a 5-trial protocol were suggested for inversion and eversion, respectively. The suggested protocols are recommended to use for further reliability studies of the ankle joint proprioception in children with CAI.
HIGHLIGHTS

Ankle joint reproduction assessments using active and passive protocols are needed to identify the impairment of joint position sense in children with chronic ankle instability
To prevent fatigue effect, 3 trials are sufficient for testing of ankle joint position sense in children with chronic ankle instability
In research setting, a 4-trial protocol for ankle joint inversion and a 5-trial protocol for ankle joint eversion are more appropriate than a 10-trial protocol

Published: October 2021

<p>Este estudio cualitativo analiza el fenómeno de la violencia contra la niñez y la adolescencia a partir de la percepción de niñas, niños, adolescentes y el entorno de protección formal e informal. Se recogió información primaria a través de grupos focales con niñas, niños, adolescentes y padres de familia; y entrevistas a profesores, personal de salud y funcionarios de los servicios de primera línea del sistema formal de protección, en los nueve departamentos de Bolivia. Con el propósito de ofrecer una lectura integral y sistémica del fenómeno de la violencia infantil, en el presente artículo se entretejen los resultados obtenidos tomando en cuenta el ámbito familiar, el escolar, el normativo-institucional y el societal, desde la percepción de los diferentes participantes del estudio. Entre los principales hallazgos se tiene que la familia y la escuela juegan un rol ambivalente de protección y agresión que contribuye a la impunidad de la violencia infantil, que ambas instituciones funcionan de manera antagónica antes que complementaria en cuanto a la protección de la niñez y la adolescencia. Que hay un temor adulto a la inversión de jerarquías, que a pesar de reconocer legalmente a la niñez y adolescncia como sujetos de derecho aún prevalece la perspectiva de verlos como objetos de derecho, que la violencia es reconocida como un fenómeno multidimensional pero su abordaje es unidimensional y que se insiste en la importancia de denunciar a pesar del descreimiento por la efectividad de la denuncia. Se necesita más investigación sobre la complejidad de las relaciones interinstitucionales para responder al maltrato infantil con respuestas efectivas.</p>

Neonatal leukaemia is a rare blood cancer occurring in baby less than 30 days of life is characterized by proliferation of white cells without known and obvious reasons. We report a case of a 7-day- old girl diagnosed with congenital leukaemia. At the time of presentation, she was evaluated as early neonatal sepsis. However, her laboratory investigations were consistent with B cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. Her cytogenetic analysis showed 46 XX trisomy 22, t(5,15) (p15,q15) and del 7 (q33,q35). She was managed with standard Interfant 06 protocol and had achieved marrow remission during the course of chemotherapy. Our case highlights the differentiation between lymphocytic leukemoid reaction and lymphoblastic malignant cells and also congenital acute lymphoblastic leukaemia who had a good outcome from the chemotherapy.

Published: October 2021

В данной работе обсуждаются фундаментальные вопросы разработки программ магистратуры в области Интернета вещей (Internet of Things — IoT). Мы кратко сравниваем предложения Сколтеха и Стэнфорда и утверждаем, что наиболее гибкое решение достигается посредством вводного блока и четырех параллельных потоков учебных курсов: обработка сигналов и управление, обучение машин и искусственный интеллект (ИИ), программирование и схемотехника платформ с применением микроконтроллеров, и, наконец, сети и кибербезопасность. Вводный блок предполагается оснастить достаточным количеством предметов по выбору, чтобы поступающие выпускники бакалавриата из областей прикладной математики, информационных технологий и электроники/телекоммуникаций могли приобрести необходимые знания для освоения потоковых курсов. Мы утверждаем, что еще одним необходимым отличием программы IoT должен явиться междисциплинарный групповой дипломный проект значительного объема, также основанный на потоковых курсах.
This paper discusses the fundamentals of postgraduate curriculum development for the area of the Internet of Things (IoT). We provide a brief contrasting analysis of Skoltech and Stanford Masters programs and argue that the most flexible way forward is via the introduction of a leveling-off, elective introductory stage, and four parallel course streams: signal processing and control; Artificial Intelligence (AI), and machine learning; microcontroller systems design; and networks and cyber security. The leveling-off stage is meant to provide sufficient electives for graduates of applied math, Information Technologies (IT), or electronics/telecom degrees to learn the necessary fundamentals for the stream modules. We argue that another distinguishing feature of an IoT masters program is a large project drawing on the stream modules and requiring a multidisciplinary, team development effort.

This article analyses the main results of the impact of Eurasian integration on Kazakhstan's economy, in particular, mutual trade for the period from 2015 to 2019. A structural analysis is conducted and the main trends and dynamics factors, commodity structure of Kazakhstan's exports and imports within the framework of the Eurasian Economic Union are presented. Integration effects in mutual trade of Kazakhstan with EAEU member states are assessed. Research methods: a comparative analysis of dynamic series, structural-logical, economic-statistical, comparative analysis. As a result of the analysis, preliminary conclusions can be made that in most areas of Kazakhstan's cooperation with the EAEU countries, there has been an outperformance. The comparative analysis of mutual trade between EAEU member states reveals that the coronavirus pandemic has hit the economic activity of the Eurasian Economic Union states, including Kazakhstan, significantly and has revealed a trend of imbalanced mutual trade in Kazakhstan during the EAEU functioning period, which demonstrates weak diversification and low intersectoral importance and dependence of the Republic on the international market. Accordingly, this may hurt harm Kazakhstan's national economy within the EAEU.
В настоящей статье анализируются основные результаты влияния евразийской интеграции на экономику Казахстана, в частности взаимная торговля за период с 2015 по 2019 годы. Проведен структурный анализ и приведены основные тенденции и факторы динамики, товарная структура экспорта и импорта Казахстана в рамках Евразийского экономического союза. Проведена оценка интеграционных эффектов во взаимной торговле Казахстана со странами-участницами ЕАЭС. Методы исследования: сравнительный анализ динамических рядов, структурно-логический, экономико-статистический, сравнительный анализ. В результате проведенного анализа можно сделать предварительные выводы о том, что в большинстве сфер сотрудничества Казахстана со странами ЕАЭС наблюдалась опережающая динамика. В ходе проведенного сравнительного анализа взаимной торговли между странами-участницами ЕАЭС выявлено, что пандемия коронавируса ощутимо ударила по экономической активности государства Евразийского экономического союза, включая Казахстан. Выявлена тенденция дисбаланса взаимной торговли Казахстана в период функционирования ЕАЭС, это демонстрирует слабую диверсификацию и низкую внутриотраслевую значимость и зависимости республики от международного рынка. Соответственно, это может иметь негативное влияние для национальной экономики Казахстана в рамках ЕАЭС.

В статье отмечается, что проблема совершенствования государственного регулирования сельского хозяйства - важнейшая составная часть рыночного механизма экономики в условиях неопределенности. Необходимость такого регулирования связана с такими особенностями АПК, прежде всего сельского хозяйства, которые не позволяют им на равных участвовать в межотраслевой конкуренции.
Проведен анализ валового выпуска продукции (услуг) сельского хозяйства Казахстана, показана динамика расходов государственного бюджета, заܰтрܰаܰт республиканского и местного бюджетов нܰаܰ сельское, водное и лесное, рыбное хозяйство хозяйство за 2016-2020 годы, размер целевых текущих трансфертов, переданных в базу расходов местных бюджетов при определении трансфертов общего характера на развитие сельского хозяйства, структура средств на антикризисные меры в АПК.
Авторы отмечают, что стратегическая значимость и специфические особенности сельского хозяйства требуют разработки особых подходов к управлению данной отраслью, её инвестированием на региональном уровне. Возникла необходимость в разработке системных экономических решений в поддержке аграрного сектора и продовольственной безопасности, требующих проведения определенной стратегии, принципов, положений, норм и мероприятий, направленных на преодоление накопившихся проблем.
Государственная поддержка в виде субсидий и предоставления льготных кредитов будет стимулировать развитие сельскохозяйственных товаропроизводителей.
The article notes that the problem of improving the state regulation of agriculture is the most important component of the market mechanism of the economy in conditions of uncertainty. The need for such regulation is associated with such features of the agro-industrial complex, primarily agriculture, which do not allow them to participate on an equal footing in intersectoral competition. The analysis of the gross output of products (services) of agriculture in Kazakhstan is carried out, the dynamics of state budget expenditures, expenditures of the republican and local budgets for agriculture, water and forestry, fisheries for 2016-2020, the size of targeted current transfers transferred to the base of expenditures of local budgets is shown when determining transfers of a general nature for the development of agriculture, the structure of funds for anti-crisis measures in the agro-industrial complex. The authors note that the strategic importance and specific features of agriculture require the development of special approaches to the management of this industry, its investment at the regional level. There was a need to develop systemic economic solutions to support the agricultural sector and food security, requiring a specific strategy, principles, regulations, norms and measures aimed at overcoming the accumulated problems. State support in the form of subsidies and the provision of concessional loans will stimulate the development of agricultural producers.
ASSESSMENT OF THE SUSTAINABILITY OF THE ECONOMY OF KAZAKHSTAN TO THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE CORONACRISIS

Published: October 2021

В статье раскрыта степень устойчивости экономики Казахстана к последствиям коронакризиса. В частности, рассмотрено влияние нефтяных цен на темпы роста ВВП и достаточность денежных резервов, хранящихся в Национальном Фонде, для поддержания национальной экономики в случае длительного сохранения низких цен на нефть. Для построения более целостной модели использовались также данные по внешнеторговому обороту страны и притоку прямых иностранных инвестиций.
Автором проанализированы тенденции развития мировой экономики в период пандемии коронавируса. Выявлены предпосылки возможной рецессии стран, в основу которой заложена возникшая инверсия доходностей двухлетних и десятилетних казначейских облигаций США. Анализируя вопрос инверсии доходности установлено, что ее причиной стали спад финансовых рынков, обесценивание нефти и снижение деловой активности по всему миру, которые вынудили участников рынка перевести средства в 10-летние трежерис.
Относительно Казахстана в статье проанализированы экономические последствия коронакризиса, а также изучена степень зависимости экономики от нефтяных цен. Отмечено, что переход к диверсифицированной экономике становится для Казахстана особенно актуальным и приоритетным в условиях волатильности цен на нефть.
The article reveals the degree of stability of the economy of Kazakhstan to the consequences of the coronavirus crisis. In particular, the impact of oil prices on GDP growth rates and the adequacy of the monetary reserves stored in the National Fund to support the national economy in the event of long-term persistence of low oil prices are considered. To build a more holistic model, data on the country's foreign trade turnover and the inflow of foreign direct investment were also used. The authors analyzed the development trends of the world economy during the coronavirus pandemic. The prerequisites for a possible recession of countries are identified, which is based on the emerging inversion of the yields of two-year and ten-year US Treasury bonds. Analyzing the issue of income inversion, it was found that it was caused by the recession in financial markets, the depreciation of oil and the decline in business activity around the world, which forced market participants to transfer funds to 10-year Treasuries. With regard to Kazakhstan, the article analyzes the economic consequences of the coronavirus crisis, and also studies the degree of dependence of the economy on oil prices. It was noted that the transition to a diversified economy is becoming especially relevant and priority for Kazakhstan in the context of volatility in oil prices.

Practices of Midwives in the Use of Personal Protective Equipment when Aid Labor during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Authors: Novelia Shinta , Lubis Rosmawati , Murniati Reni , Carolin Bunga Tiara 
Published: October 2021

Background: In the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is very important to reduce the risk of transmitting infectious diseases to medical personnel because it can prevent contact with pathogens. This shows that midwives as first-line managers of pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum cases must be vigilant by wearing complete Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) so that there is no transmission of the virus from the patient to the midwife. Objective: To determine the analysis of midwives' practices in using PPE when assisting labor during the COVID-19 pandemic at the Banten Regional General Hospital 2020-2021.
Methodology: A quantitative analytic study using a cross sectional approach. The sample in this study was 102 respondents with purposive sampling technique. Data were analyzed using SPSS with Chi Square, which previously tested the validity and reliability.
Results: The use of PPE in midwives in Banten Hospital obtained an average value of 84.3. Based on age, the average value was 53.9. Based on the length of service, the average score was 96.1. Based on education, the average score is 55.9. The results of the chi-square test showed that all independent variables had no relationship with the use of PPE including knowledge (p = 0.323), attitude (p = 0.665), availability of PPE (p = 0.740), and supervision (p = 0.603).
Conclusions and Suggestions: The use of PPE in midwives has no relationship with knowledge, attitudes, availability of PPE and supervision. There is a need for socialization about the importance of using PPE to midwives in order to maintain the quality of expected care services. There is a need for an K3 unit in Banten Hospital which is one of the authorities. There needs to be special attention from the Hospital Management regarding the supervision of the use of PPE in midwives.

Objetivo: verificar a influência do comprometimento cognitivo na adesão ao tratamento anti-hipertensivo em idosos. Método: revisão sistemática, com a inclusão de artigos originais, disponíveis na integra, nos idiomas português, inglês e espanhol, publicados entre os anos de 2007 e 2021. A busca foi realizada nas bases SCIELO, PUBMED, LILACS e MEDLINE, com os descritores: “Cognitive Dysfunction”; “Medication Adherence”; “Hypertension”; “Aged”. Resultados: dos 216 estudos encontrados, cinco foram selecionados. Quatro mostraram relação negativa entre o comprometimento cognitivo e a adesão dos idosos ao tratamento anti-hipertensivo. Evidenciou-se que idosos com déficit cognitivo tinham maior probabilidade de inadequado controle da pressão arterial. Conclusão: observa-se que o comprometimento cognitivo é um importante fator de risco para baixa adesão ao tratamento em idosos hipertensos. Torna-se imprescindível a detecção precoce, visando adequar a assistência às condições cognitivas do idoso e otimizar o gerenciamento da medicação, para atingir o controle adequado dos níveis pressóricos.
