Introduction:
Peptic ulcer perforation is a non-traumatic emergency that is often encountered and gives a mortality rate of up to 70%. The need for a system that is easy and simple in predicting and screening patients in the initial triage to predict the incidence of mortality after surgery is important. This study aim to test the validity of predictive score of mortality in peptic ulcer perforation (POMPP) in predicting mortality in patients with perforated peptic ulcer surgery.

Methods:
This study was a diagnostic study with 50 peptic ulcer perforation patients operated between February 2019 to February 2020, and collected with consecutive sampling method. All patients who were operated was calculated for the preoperative POMPP scores, with parameters of age, blood urea nitrogen, and albumin. Patients who were deceased or refused to participate were excluded. The best cut-off point was calculated, then sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive value (PPV/NPV), accuracy of score and POMPP score validity were calculated in predicting post-operative patient mortality.

Results:
The best cut-off value obtained from receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was =1.5, where patients with POMPP =1 were exposed to a high risk of postoperative mortality (80.8%), and POMPP <1.5 had a low risk of postoperative mortality (19.2%). Other scores were calculated as follow: sensitivity 80.7%, specificity 91.6%, PPV 91.3%, NPV 81.4%, accuracy 86% and the validity test score of 50 patients reached 100%.

Conclusion:
POMPP has good validity and can be used as a screening tool for patients with perforated peptic ulcer surgery.

Authors: Chukunalu Mgbomene 
Published: November 2024

This study analyzes remittances and development in West Africa using five countries in West Africa as case studies. The data used were personal remittances received, financial openness and exchange rate as explanatory variables while human development index was the dependent variable. The data were sourced from the World Bank and the United Nations 2022 publications. The data were panel data and as a result, the study utilized the panel regression model as the main analytical tool. The results showed that remittances into West African economies are spurred by increased financial openness and exchange rate. This aligns with the neoclassical migration theory and the developmental optimistic school of thought. The study concluded that remittances to West African countries have greatly influenced economic development in the sub-region and recommended that the increased financial openness should be a strategy for governments in the West African sub-region to appeal to their nationals abroad to utilize formal remittance channels as this would aid the developmental efforts of the government.(C12,F24,R11)

Supporting teacher dispositions towards translanguaging-for-learning in a Grade 9 mathematics classroom
Authors: Guzula Xolisa , Abdulatief Soraya 
Published: November 2024

Background: Our article argues that the role of translingual instruction in mathematics classrooms is under-recognised in South Africa, as policymakers, teacher educators, teachers, learners, and parents assume that mathematics is just about numbers and calculations and not language. This is despite findings on the value of using children’s familiar language resources in MacDonald (1991), code-switching for meaning-making in mathematics and science learning by Setati et al. (2002) and Probyn (2015), and the findings by Mbude (2019) on using isiXhosa for boosting mathematical and science skills.Objectives: The main aim of our article is to examine the role of the Languaging-for-Learning (L4L) project in fostering ‘supportive teacher dispositions’ to translanguaging and bilingual and multilingual education. We will accomplish this aim through description and analysis of one Grade 8 and Grade 9 mathematics teacher and her learners who participated in the project.Method: The study is a qualitative and interpretive linguistic ethnographic case study of a Grade 8 and Grade 9 mathematics teacher. The researchers used ethnographic methods to collect data and primarily draw on data transcribed from one of the video recordings of a lesson, fieldnotes of their classroom observations and still photographs from their classroom visits and L4L workshops. They used discourse analysis to interpret the data.Results: The research findings point to the critical role that fostering supportive teacher dispositions to translanguaging can play in teacher development and in supporting learners’ engagement and learning in multilingual mathematics classrooms.Contribution: Our contribution to the field has been in demonstrating pluriversality in mathematics classrooms, showing how translanguaging enhances meaning-making and participation and helps to give voice to learners.Conclusion: Having multilingual resources, collaboratively building knowledge and resources and team teaching with teachers played a role in supporting the teacher’s development in pedagogical translanguaging.

Authors: Nahvi Reza , Shakibaee Abolfazl , Salesi Mahmood , Esmaeili Hakime , Bazgir Behzad 
Published: November 2024

Background:
Recent evidence suggests a negative correlation between physical activity and the incidence and severity of noncommunicable chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and respiratory infections. This study explores the potential influence of physical activity levels on the mortality rate and coronavirus disease (COVID-19) recovery.

Materials and Methods:
This descriptive analytical cross-sectional study evaluated 175 Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)–confirmed COVID-19 patients admitted to Baqiyatallah Hospital. The participants’ hospitalization data and physical activity levels were assessed. The Mann–Whitney U test explored the association between physical activity and COVID-19 outcomes.

Results:
Findings revealed that COVID-19 patients had a mean (SD) physical activity score of 6.55 (1.76) out of a possible 15. The mean scores for physical activity in work, sport, and leisure environments were 2.69 (0.49), 1.37 (1.45), and 2.49 (0.59) out of 5, respectively. Surviving patients exhibited significantly higher sports-specific and overall physical activity levels than those who succumbed to the disease. A Man–Whitney U test results noted statistically significant relationship between total and sports-specific physical activity, hospitalization (interquartile range (IQR) 2.3-3.06, p = 0.020 and IQR 2.5-3, p = 0.010, respectively), and mortality (IQR 0.44-2.75, p = 0.020 and IQR 1.47-2.97, p = 0.020).

Conclusions:
In summary, increased total physical activity, particularly in a sports environment, appears to be linked with reduced COVID-19 hospitalization and mortality rates.

Authors: Khodadai Farinaz , Kheirabadi Gholamreza , Bolghan-Abadi Mustafa , Parchami Koorosh 
Published: November 2024

Background:
Healthcare workers are the first to be exposed to the virus and are at greater risk than the general public. This study aimed to examine the risk factors that affected hospital staff’s general health during the COVID-19 pandemic in Isfahan, Iran.

Materials and Methods:
This cross-sectional study was conducted on the staff of all hospitals in Isfahan one year after the COVID-19 outbreak (2021–2022). The General Health Questionnaire (GHQ) was used to determine social functioning, while the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ) was employed to assess physical and psychological health status.

Results:
There was a significant positive relationship between work experience in the COVID-19 ward and the scores of physical health (r = 0.26, df = 298, p < 0.01), depressive symptoms (r = 0.24, df = 298, p < 0.01), and anxiety (r = 0.17, df = 298, p < 0.01). The job and income satisfaction score was negatively related to the scores of social function variables (r = −0.25, df = 298, p < 0.01) and depressive syndrome (r = −0.12, df = 298, p < 0.05). The fear of COVID-19 was related to social functioning (r = 0.12, df = 298, p < 0.01), physical health (r = 0.31, df = 298, p < 0.001), depressive symptoms (r = 0.36, df = 298, p < 0.001), panic attacks (r = 0.15, df = 298, p < 0.01), and generalized anxiety (r = 0.23, df = 298, p < 0.001). Gender and age significantly predicted general health.

Conclusions:
The COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected all dimensions of hospital staff’s health, particularly those with underlying physical conditions.

Authors: Shahcheragh Seyed Hossein , Fekri Nazanin , Rad Mostafa 
Published: November 2024

Background:
Emergency nurses face various challenging conditions and many moral distress that may associated with fatigue from providing care. The spiritual intelligence of nurses has been found to have an impact on the quality of care. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the spiritual intelligence of emergency nurses with fatigue from providing care and moral distress in emergency nurses.

Materials and Methods:
This descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study was conducted on 200 nurses working in the emergency departments of hospitals in Semnan and Sabzevar, who were selected by stratified random method. They were asked to complete the spiritual intelligence, nurse fatigue scale, and moral distress questionnaire through self-reporting. The data were analyzed using SPSS 26 and Amos software, path analysis, and correlation tests.

Results:
An increase in spiritual intelligence leads to a significant reduction in moral distress (p = 0.01) and fatigue from caregiving (p = 0.001). In contrast, an increase in moral distress leads to a considerable increase in fatigue from caregiving (p = 0.001).

Conclusions:
The results showed that spiritual intelligence has an inverse relationship with moral distress and fatigue from providing care. Moral distress has a direct relationship with fatigue from providing care. Therefore, interventions in the field of increasing spiritual intelligence and reducing moral distress and fatigue from providing care are recommended.
