Authors: Oberio Elnelyn C. , Jamandre Markh B. 
Published: March 2021

This project aimed to automate the manual entry of the incident reports of the Philippine National Police. The system is projected to provide effective monitoring and updated statistical reports that will be used for decision-making processes. All police stations within the designated area will have an installed application that is centralized nationwide. Thus, data analysis would be easier and useful for law enforcement agencies for long-term crime bust programs. The system has the following specific objectives: first is to provide easier access to blotter reports, to improve decision making with interactive maps, to promote information sharing, and lastly, to offer statistical information of incidents. Evaluation of incident reports by an authorized officer is necessary before encoding them into the system. The data that the system needs includes the following: complainant and suspect's name(s), case details, and the type of offense. Inputted incident reports can be seen by the central office and other police stations; however, data manipulation is accessed only in the central office. The system can search and display case details in a printable format based on the user's specified query. By utilizing the Google map application program interface (API), the user can quickly locate and see the crime's exact location. This particular feature is challenging because there is a need to structure a detailed data mining design to promptly generate reliable reports. Once data are encoded in the system, the central office can create reports according to their needs. The system development started with data gathering by interviewing the Non-Uniform Personnel of Murcia Police station and performed the requirements analysis for the system.

Authors: Suan, MSLT Maria Madelyn D. , Magallanes Celo I. 
Published: March 2021

A sense of belonging in the cycle of teaching and learning is important to students because if they understand acceptance into the program, they will feel more inspired, more successful, and more driven. Students understand the value of school activities in a supportive and warm atmosphere that provides a sense of belonging and acceptance. Moreover, it is a vital necessity for every individual. The sense of belonging for schools is about achievement, suggesting that the benefit of fulfilling this need is generally higher, reaching the students. Therefore, students who do not fulfill their needs for possessions will also have lower self-esteem. Low self-esteem is often associated with depression. Low self-esteem can lead to depression, and depression lowers self-esteem. Hence, the paper describes the extent of belongingness and level of self-esteem of high school students of a Catholic college in Antique during the school year 2019-2020. Likewise, this paper explored the relationship between the students' demographics and their sense of belongingness and self-esteem.

Authors: Adis Susan Jane T. , Arnibal Sheila P. 
Published: March 2021

The World Health Organization Regional Office of the Western Pacific's definition of a healthy workplace is a place where all members work together to achieve a unified vision for the health and well-being of the workers and the community. A healthy work environment is where all members are provided with the physical, psychological, social, and organizational states that protect and promote their health and safety. A positive work environment for nurses has been concisely described as a work environment where nurses are supported to function at the highest scope of clinical practice, working effectively in an interdisciplinary manner with the team of caregivers mobilizing resources quickly. This paper describes the level of quality of the work environment of nurses in a public hospital in Negros Occidental. Likewise, it explores the difference in the level of quality of the work environment when nurses are grouped according to their demographics. Also, it determines the challenges encountered by nurses in their work environment.
Awareness and Incidence of Bullying among Public High School Students in Antique
Authors: Gonzales Janice L. , Madrigal Dennis V. 
Published: March 2021

Bullying is an increasing problem globally, which affects school children over the years. The students who have experienced bullying have a greater risk of psychological distress. Likewise, the incidence of bullying has been increasing despite the efforts of the Philippine government and Department of Education. Moreover, the problem of bullying was even exacerbated by technology resulting in a new form called cyberbullying. Studies also show that students are aware of the different bullying types, yet high bullying incidence still prevails. Hence, the paper describes the level of bullying awareness and the extent of bullying incidence in a public school in Antique during the School Year 2019-2020. The paper also evaluates if a significant difference exists in the level of awareness and the extent of bullying practices when respondents are grouped according to sex, grade level, birth order, living condition, and family monthly income. Furthermore, it also investigates whether a relationship exists between awareness and extent of bullying incidence.
SCHOPENHAUER E A PROVA ANALÓGICA DE QUE A VONTADE É A COISA EM SI
Authors: Silva Matheus 
Published: March 2021

Este artigo propõe uma leitura da § 19 de O mundo como vontade e como representação do ponto de vista da retórica aristotélica. Neste referido parágrafo, Schopenhauer propõe uma analogia entre o corpo humano e as demais coisas que compõem a natureza, a fim de especificar qual é a essência desta ou, em outros termos, o que é a coisa em si. Como alternativa às propostas interpretativas dessa manobra, que tomam a analogia, por um lado, como uma “prova” nos termos da lógica formal ou, por outro, como um instrumento de acesso ao cerne da natureza, nós apresentamos a seguinte hipótese: nessa § 19 Schopenhauer prepara um “argumento analógico retórico”, mediante o qual concluiria que “a Vontade é a coisa em si”, sendo essa conclusão verdadeira, ainda que não necessária do ponto de vista da lógica clássica. Isso seria possível, de acordo com o método dialético de Aristóteles, graças à comunicação entre a “verdade” e a “verossimilhança”, viabilizada pelo uso de “lugares comuns” argumentativos, extraídos de seu pensamento metafísico e que são também, de acordo com o sentido que desejamos explorar aqui, aplicados à sua arte retórica. Assim, recorreremos à análise não apenas do texto em que Schopenhauer formula a analogia, mas de outros escritos seus que guardam relação direta com esse problema; e também consideraremos aqueles em que Aristóteles expõe sua teoria da arte retórica, com ênfase para a Retórica, e ainda partes do Tratado da argumentação: a nova retórica, de Perelman e Olbrechts-Tyteca, na medida em que estes reformulam e, ao mesmo tempo, refletem praticamente as mesmas preocupações daquela obra aristotélica.

Published: March 2021

The purpose of this study was to identify the prevalence and levels of fear in patients scheduled for amputations at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital (KBTH), Accra, Ghana. A total of 30 patients hospitalized at the surgical wards and the orthopaedic and accident center wards between November 2019 and May 2020 were included in the study. The Surgical Fear Questionnaire (SFQ) was used to measure the levels of fear in the patients the day before surgery.
Findings showed that the major type of amputation was below knee amputation, 16/30 (53.3%), the main reason for amputation was due to Diabetic foot wounds, 16/30 (53.3%), the immediate reaction to the news of the amputation was sadness, 12/30 (40%). All patients were afraid. Mean (SD) SFQ-s scores were 16.23 (9.22) and mean (SD) SFQ-l scores were 19.40 (9.65). Though the levels of fear were generally low, long term fear was higher among the patients than the short-term fear consequences of the surgery. Gender was significant associated with patients&rsquo; immediate reaction to fear. Age was significantly associated with the levels of fear.
We propose multidisciplinary interactions and well-thought-out rehabilitation programs to enhance patient outcomes and improve the quality of life of amputees.

Authors: Sole Silvia , Ramírez-Campillo Rodrigo , Andrade David C. , Sanchez-Sanchez Javier 
Published: March 2021

BackgroundThe aim of this study is to conduct a systematic review with meta-analysis to explore the effects of plyometric jump training (PJT) on the physical fitness of individual sport athletes (ISA).MethodsFollowing the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, we searched through PubMed, Web of Science, and SCOPUS electronic databases. We included controlled studies that incorporated a PJT intervention among ISA (with no restriction for age or sex), that included a pre-to-post intervention assessment of physical fitness (e.g., sprint; jump). From the included studies, relevant data (e.g., PJT and participants characteristics) was extracted. We assessed the methodological quality of the included studies using the PEDro scale. Using a random-effects model, meta-analyses for a given outcome was conducted. Means and standard deviations for a measure of pre-post-intervention physical fitness from the PJT and control groups were converted to Hedges’ g effect size (ES). Heterogeneity was assessed using theI2statistic. The risk of bias was explored using the extended Egger’s test. The statistical significance threshold was set atp< 0.05. Moderator analyses were conducted according to the sex, age and sport background of the athletes.ResultsTwenty-six studies of moderate-high methodological quality were included (total participants,n= 667). Compared to controls, PJT improved vertical jump (ES = 0.49;p< 0.001;I= 0.0%), linear sprint (ES = 0.23;p= 0.032;I2= 10.9%), maximal strength (ES = 0.50;p< 0.001;I2= 0.0%) and endurance performance (ES = 0.30;p= 0.028;I2= 11.1%). No significant effect was noted for sprint with change of direction (ES = 0.34;p= 0.205;I2= 70.9%). Athlete’s sex, age and sport background had no modulator role on the effect of PJT on vertical jump, linear sprint, maximal strength and endurance performance. Among the included studies, none reported adverse effects related to the PJT intervention.ConclusionsPJT induces small improvements on ISA physical fitness, including jumping, sprinting speed, strength and endurance.
Precancer Lesions of the Cervix among Treatment Experienced HIV Positive Women at University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria
Authors: Awolude Olutosin A. , Oyerinde Sunday O. 
Published: March 2021

Background: Cervical precancer lesions, caused by persistence of human papilloma virus (HPV) infection, is common among women living with Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. However, there remains paucity of information on these dysplastic lesions especially in low- and middle-income countries of the world as there are few programmes that have incorporated routine screening as a standard of care.
Aim: To determine the pattern of precancer lesions of the cervix among treatment experienced HIV positive women in a large antiretroviral therapy programme in South West Nigeria.
Study Design: Retrospective review of clinical records.
Place and Duration of Study: HIV Programme in College of Medicine, University of Ibadan/University College Hospital, Ibadan, Nigeria between January 2014 and December 2015.
Methodology: A review of the Pap smear results of 468 women attending the antiretroviral therapy (ART) clinic at the University College Hospital (UCH) Ibadan over a 2-year period was done. The cytological results were analyzed with biosocial variables. Level of significance was set at 95% confidence level.
Results: The mean age of the participants reviewed was 37.1+/- 8.7 years. The mean duration of ART among the participants was 19.5 (±14.0) months. The prevalence of any form of squamous Intraepithelial lesions (SIL) varied from 10.0% among those on ART for up to 12 months to 1.4% among those with more than 18 months of ART use (p=022) and polygamous relationship is significantly associated with dysplastic cervical lesions among this studied cohort (p=0.043)
Conclusion: While ART appears to have anti-Human Papillomavirus (HPV) activities as observed in the pattern of cervical dysplastic lesions, polygamy, a common family setting in this environment seems to promote development of SIL among these WLHIV. These findings require further studies to corroborate in the light of limitations of difficulty in disaggregating the duration of HIV diagnosis from the onset of treatment as most were already on treatment before the screening and failure of baseline Pap smear test at the entry point to determine the rate of progression.

Published: March 2021

Aims: The removal of some pollutants such as ammonia nitrogen, Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN), chemical oxygen demand (COD), biological oxygen demand (BOD5), phosphate and some solids (total (TS), fixed (TFS) and volatile (TVS)) from sewage wastewater was investigated in vertical subsurface flow constructed wetlands (SSVFCW).
Study Design: The bed of the constructed wetland is composed of gravel and Canna indica is used as vegetation.
Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted at the Federal University of Santa Maria, southern Brazil, under subtropical climate from June to September 2019.
Methodology: Three kinds of samples of water collected (Raw, septic tank and outlet from the wetland) one time per week were analyzed according to American standards. Anions were analyzed by gas chromatography using 930 compact IC Flex Metrohm. Statistical analysis performed using ANOVA and U test of Mann-Whitneyto investigate the statistical difference were performed by STATISTICA and Origin software.
Results: A total of 10 samples of each kind of water were collected and analyzed. In the conditions of this study, the removal percentage is 89.88, 88.00, 84.93, 84.62, 84.31, 72.94, 41.71, 15.63 respectively for COD, TKN, NH4+-N, TVS, BOD5, TS, TFS and PO43--P. Environment temperature, hydraulic retention time have an effect on the performance of the wetlands system. The effect of the contact time shows that adsorption process is a partway of ammonia nitrogen removal in the wetland. Among the three models of kinetic studied to describe the removal of ammonia nitrogen, Stover-Kincannon and second order models showed a better fit than the first order model.
Conclusion: The nitrification and adsorption are the principal process of ammonia removal in the wetland. The plant has been found to be very efficient on the removal of ammonia nitrogen, TKN, COD, BOD5 while phosphate removal has been found too weak.

Published: March 2021

AbstractThe ability of a light‐sensor to detect fast variation in incident light intensity is a vital feature required in imaging and data transmission applications. Solution‐processed bulk heterojunction (BHJ) type organic photodiodes (OPDs) have gone through key developments, including dark current mitigation and longer linear dynamic range. In contrast, there has been less focus on increasing OPD response speed (f–3dB). Here, bulk heterojunction OPDs based on electron‐donating polymer poly[thiophene‐2,5‐diyl‐alt‐5,10‐bis((2‐hexyldecyl)oxy)dithieno[3,2‐c:3′,2′‐h][1,5]naphthyridine‐2,7‐diyl] (or PTNT) and electron‐accepting phenyl‐C71‐butyric acid methyl ester (or PC71BM) are reported. The intrinsic charge transport characteristics required for fast speed OPDs are discussed, and an analytical model for the same is developed. The OPDs present 0.8 MHz f–3dB under no applied voltage bias for a typical blend ratio of 1:1 by weight. It is shown that balanced electron and hole mobility is a critical criterion for faster speed OPDs, which can be realized by tuning the composition ratio of the bulk heterojunction. By tuning PTNT and PC71BM blend ratio, the f–3dB was successfully raised by more than quadruple to 4.5 MHz. The findings provide a tool to set device architecture for faster next‐generation light sensors.
In Vivo Quantification of Nanoparticle Association with Immune Cell Subsets in Blood
Authors: Ong Yih Rue , De Rose Robert , Johnston Angus P. R. 
Published: March 2021

AbstractNanoparticles offer great promise for more effective drug delivery. However, their particulate nature typically results in rapid systemic clearance by immune cells in blood. Currently, to understand these interactions, nanoparticle association is probed ex vivo with whole blood. While ex vivo assays give important information about the relative cell association, they do not consider changes in immune cell homeostasis or the complex mixing behavior that occurs in vivo. To address this, a nanoparticle in vivo immune‐cell association assay is developed to study the in vivo association of unmodified and poly(ethylene glycol) modified liposomes with immune cells, and compared this to the ex vivo association in static whole blood. In vivo, it is observed that neutrophils play a significantly greater role in nanoparticle binding than suggested by ex vivo assays. The increased influence of neutrophils in vivo is largely due to a significant increase in number of circulating neutrophils after intravenous injection. Conversely, the number of circulating monocytes significantly decreased after intravenous injection, leading to significantly less total association of liposomes to monocytes compared to ex vivo. This novel in vivo immune cell binding assay sheds new light on the fate of nanoparticles following intravenous delivery.

Published: March 2021

AbstractThe nature of repetitive learning and oblivion of memory enables humans to effectively manage vast amounts of memory by prioritizing information for long‐term storage. Inspired by the memorization process of the human brain, an artificial synaptic array is presented, which mimics the biological memorization process by replicating Ebbinghaus’ forgetting curve. To construct the artificial synaptic array, signal‐transmitting access transistors and artificial synaptic memory transistors are designed using indium–gallium–zinc‐oxide and poly(3‐hexylthiophene), respectively. To secure the desired performance of the access transistor in regulating the input signal to the synaptic transistor, the content of gallium in the access transistor is optimized. In addition, the operation voltage of the synaptic transistor is carefully selected to achieve memory‐state efficiency. Repetitive learning characterizing Ebbinghaus’ oblivion curves is realized using an artificial synaptic array with optimized conditions for both transistor components. This successfully demonstrates a biologically plausible memorization process. Furthermore, selective attention for information prioritization in the human brain is mimicked by selectively applying repetitive learning to a synaptic transistor with a high memory state. The demonstrated biologically plausible artificial synaptic array provides great scope for advancement in bioinspired electronics.
