EXAMINING EXEMPLAR ELEMENTS OF SELECTED MALAYSIAN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS’ ACADEMIC INTEGRITY POLICY: DOCUMENT ANALYSIS BASED EVIDENCE
Authors: Mehar Singh Manjet Kaur , Phan Kar Jun Jonathan 
Published: April 2024

Background and Purpose: This study examined the comprehensiveness and sufficiency of academic integrity (AI) policies of selected Malaysian higher education institutions. The investigation of eight public and private universities’ AI policies were guided by the five core elements of exemplar AI policy framework developed by Bretag, Mahmud, Wallace, Walker, James, Green, East, McGowan and Partridge (2011).

Methodology: This qualitative method research focused on document analysis of purposively selected eight AI policies. The five core elements that guided the document analysis are access, approach, responsibility, detail and support. The data collected from document analysis was analysed via NVivo 11 software.

Findings: Public universities are educative based and private universities practice punitive approach. All universities provide access of the AI documents to the university community and public, implement ad hoc basis education, awareness campaigns and modules to support the AI agenda and encourage responsibility among the staff and students to curb academic dishonesty. As for detail, universities differ in terms of amount and type of information provided in the documents.

Contributions: The findings will provide universities evidence to make their existing AI policies more robust and comprehensive.

Keywords: Academic integrity policy, core elements of exemplar, document analysis, Malaysian higher education institutions.

EXPLORING 50 YEARS OF RESEARCH ON STUDENTS’ IDENTITIES IN HIGHER EDUCATION CONTEXT: A BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS
Authors: Tun Nadia , Khairuddin Zulaikha 
Published: April 2024

Background and Purpose: Higher education serves not merely as a means of imparting knowledge, skills, and societal values to students; it also offers individuals the chance to explore the world, discover their identity and position, gain a deeper understanding of others, and develop appropriate responses to diverse perspectives. Hence, it is vital to acknowledge and understand the significance of students’ identities as it is not an inherent or fixed concept; instead, it emerges and transforms through diverse academic experiences encountered by students from all around the world. The objective of this study is to examine various methods to identify the global research trends related to students’ identities in higher education. This bibliometric study examines various methods to identify the global research trends related to students’ identities in higher education, including annual publication output, leading countries, prolific authors, and co-occurring author keywords.

Methodology: A bibliometric study was conducted by utilising VOSviewer software (version 1.6.18) in comprehending the worldwide studies on students’ identities in higher education. The study analysed publication trends from as far back as 1974 up to 2022, using data from the Scopus database. Data collection took place between July 1 and July 5, 2023, using the Scopus database. Data collection occurred between July 1 and July 5, 2023. The study examined publication trends, including time, author, and institution mapping, keyword clustering, and identifying emerging terms.
Findings: The findings revealed a notable increase in researchers' attention towards studying students' identities in higher education, reflected in a rise in related articles. Various theoretical frameworks, including Community of Practice, Acculturation, Self-Concept, Habitus, and Situated Learning, have been extensively examined to provide insights into understanding these identities. These frameworks underscore the impact of social, cultural, and psychological factors on how students perceive themselves and engage within academic settings.

Contributions: This bibliometric analysis enhances our understanding of students' identities in higher education, guiding future research and providing useful advice for professionals, researchers, and policymakers in the educational sector. Exploring students' identities offers valuable insights into collaborative networks and potential partners, facilitating further advancements in the field.

Keywords: Students’ identities, higher education, bibliometrics analysis.

Abstract

OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to characterize extracellular vesicles (EVs) in plasma and synovial fluid obtained from horses with and without naturally occurring post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA).

ANIMALS
EVs were isolated from plasma and synovial fluid from horses with (n = 6) and without (n = 6) PTOA.

METHODS
Plasma and synovial fluid EVs were characterized with respect to quantity, size, and surface markers. Small RNA sequencing was performed, and differentially expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) underwent bioinformatic analysis to identify putative targets and to explore potential associations with specific biological processes.

RESULTS
Plasma and synovial fluid samples from horses with PTOA had a significantly higher proportion of exosomes and a lower proportion of microvesicles compared to horses without PTOA. Small RNA sequencing revealed several differentially expressed miRNAs, including miR-144, miR-219-3p, and miR-199a-3l in plasma and miR-199a-3p, miR-214, and miR-9094 in synovial fluid EVs. Bioinformatics analysis of the differentially expressed miRNAs highlighted their potential role in fibrosis, differentiation of chondrocytes, apoptosis, and inflammation pathways in PTOA.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE
We have identified dynamic molecular changes in the small noncoding signatures of plasma and synovial fluid EVs in horses with naturally occurring PTOA. These findings could serve to identify promising biomarkers in the pathogenesis of PTOA, to facilitate the development of targeted therapies, and to aid in establishing appropriate translational models of PTOA.
The influence of intimate hygiene on vaginal microbiota and health
Authors: Długosz Justyna , Millan Natasza , Sędek Łukasz 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
There is a direct correlation between the vaginal microbiome and the health of a woman’s reproductive system. The microbiome is mainly composed of lactic acid rods – Lactobacillus, the metabolism of which ensures an acidic pH, playing a protective role for vaginal homeostasis. One of the typical disorders of homeostasis is bacterial vaginosis, defined as predominance of group IV CST system bacteria (comprising different genera characterized by anaerobic metabolism), which is an essential problem of the female population all over the world. The maintenance of this homeostasis can be restored by medicinal preparations. In addition to well-known antibiotics aimed at inhibiting the development of bacterial pathogens, probiotics and products that promote the development of beneficial microbiota are increasingly used. It seems more relevant not to cure, but to prevent imbalance of homeostasis. For this purpose, women use different washing and care techniques of external genitalia. Women’s everyday practices also include the use of washing preparations from the group of cosmetics; however, little is known about their impact on the microbiota. These products potentially constitute an element of early prevention, which is highly beneficial for female health. The main controversial type of ingredients are cleaning surfactants, which can lead to disruption of the epidermal barrier and to breakthrough of pathogens.

Authors: Yang Tiequan , Gao Boyang , Zheng Keji 
Published: April 2024

Abstract

Introduction
In this era of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), the clinical benefit of surgery for patients with metastatic or recurrent gastrointestinal mesenchymal tumor (GIST) is not well defined. The aim of our study was to demonstrate the survival advantage of adding surgery in patients with recurrent or metastatic GIST.

Methods
A systematic search of PubMed, Web of Knowledge, Ovid’s database was conducted. Relevant studies published by 31 July 2022 on the role of surgery in recurrent or metastatic GIST were identified. Research quality was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale.

Results
Eight studies involving 842 patients were included. The four included studies covered 3-year survival and included 441 patients, of whom 302 received TKIs, and 139 received TKIs plus surgery. 3-year overall survival was significantly higher in the TKIs plus surgery group than in the TKIs group (OR=2.37, 95% CI 1.45–3.88, P = 0.001). The 5-year overall survival was 69.0% in the TKIs plus surgery group compared with 49.1% in the TKIs only group. Survival was significantly higher in TKIs plus surgery group (OR = 2.69, 95%Cl 1.49–4.86, P=0.001). Four studies, including 453 patients, indicated 3-year progression-free survival (PFS). The pooled analysis revealed the TKIs plus surgery group did have a better PFS than the TKIs only group (OR = 4.02, 95% CI: 1.45–11.16, P=0.008). Three included studies focused on gastrointestinal stromal tumor liver metastasis (GLM). The role of surgery plus TKIs had statistically significant better 5-year overall survival as compared with TKI treatment alone (OR = 2.34, 95% Cl 1.30–4.22, P=0.005).

Conclusions
Treatment with surgical resection and TKIs could significantly improve the prognosis of patients with recurrent or metastatic GIST.
Investing in European Public Goods While Maintaining Fiscal Discipline at Home
Authors: Bakker Age , Beetsma Roel , Buti Marco 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Putting the high public debt ratios on a downward path after the surge during the pandemic and allocating sufficient resources to deliver on the green and digital transition will be among the priorities confronting the EU institutions emerging from the June 2024 European elections. After a long and painful debate, EU institutions have agreed upon a new fiscal rulebook that aims to incentivise the reallocation of national public spending to the green and digital transition. However, the additional public investment is unlikely to suffice to comply with the goals of net zero that the EU has set for itself. In particular, investments of a transnational nature will remain undersupplied. This article proposes setting up a successor to NextGenerationEU – a new EU fund until 2030 for financing European public goods (EPGs) to address the double transition. Access to the facility would be conditional on adherence to the EU fiscal rules. By tying up the implementation of the new fiscal framework, the debate on the future of NextGenerationEU and the next multiannual EU budget post-2027, the credibility and internal consistency of these various instruments will be greatly enhanced.
The Effectiveness of Physical Education Classes Through Collaborative Learning Methods for the Physical Development of 11th-Grade Students in Vietnam
Authors: Thi Tu Tran , Ngoc Cuong Do , Văn Tung Vi 
Published: April 2024

Abstract

Introduction.
Collaborative Learning (CL) is a group learning method that involves mutual support and assistance among individual students to achieve learning goals. The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a 14-week Physical Education (PE) class using the CL method in enhancing the physical development of 11th-grade students.

Material and Methods.
Eighty healthy students were randomly selected and divided into two groups: the experimental group with 40 students applying the CL method in PE classes, and the control group with 40 students studying PE using conventional methods. In this study, five fitness tests were used such as a 30-s sit-up test, a 30-m sprint test, a 4 × 10-m shuttle run test, a standing long jump test, and a 5-min running field test.

Results.
After 14 weeks of experimentation, independent t-test results indicated a significant difference in the mean values between the experimental and control groups at the threshold of p < 0.05. Paired t-test results for the mean values before and after the experiment in both groups also showed a difference, with the physical fitness growth rate of the experimental group being higher than that of the control group. Particularly, the control group exhibited a post-experiment value that had a negative significance.

Conclusions.
This demonstrates that the experimental results serve as an illustration, confirming the effectiveness of the CL method in high school PE classes. Teachers should enhance the use of CL in the future to achieve higher learning goals.
Najbardziej królewska przypowieść w Księdze Ezechiela. Ez 17 w świetle retoryki hebrajskiej
Authors:   Uniwersytet Opolski, Wydział Teologiczny, Bosowski Jerzy 
Published: April 2024

The context of the study was that previous scholarly researchers only saw four kings in the parable. Most used diachronic methods, one used a holistic method (M. Greenberg). They divided the text quite unanimously into: allegory (vv. 1-10), interpretation (vv. 11-21) and the restoration of Israel (vv. 22-24). Most considered this to be a structure. Therefore, the aim of the study became to discover the structure that the ancient inspired author had included in the text under study. The method of Biblical Hebrew rhetoric was applied. As a result of its application, it was possible to discover a parallel-centric structure in mirror composition and scheme: A, B, C, B’, A’. At the centre is the betrayal of Zedekiah, who is disguised as a grapevine in the parable. Another discovery is the number systems. The most important ones are 10 and 4. The number ‘ten’, which concerns God, can be divided into 3 + 7 following the pattern of the commandments. The next number system concerns the number ‘four’. The 4 occurrences relate to the proper name ‘Babylon’ and the next three ‘four’ systems relate to Zedekiah / grapevine. The conclusions drawn are: 1) the betrayal of Zedekiah will result in his death; the number systems indicate that this is a very universal message (to the 4 sides of the world): “breaking the covenant risks death”; 2) The numerical system concerning God emphasises that He is perfect and has full authority over the other 4 kings.
Sposoby wykorzystywania Pisma Świętego w nauczaniu katechetycznym Cyryla Jerozolimskiego
Authors:   Uniwersytet Opolski, Wydział Teologiczny, Widok Norbert 
Published: April 2024

Cyril of Jerusalem (died 386) is among the significant witnesses in the process of spreading the Good News in the eastern part of the Roman Empire. In Jerusalem, he initiated a series of catechumenal catechesis in which he expounded the doctrine of the faith on the basis of the so-called Jerusalem symbol. He commented on and justified the various truths of faith with biblical texts. The submitted article describes Cyril’s ways of using the sacred books in his evangelistic teaching to candidates for baptism. The various methods of using biblical statements are supported by numerous quotations taken from his catechesis. The biblical statements cited are diverse in their subjunctive content, which thus accounts for the different methods of showing the listeners the richness contained in Scripture. This multifaceted application of biblical content further testifies to the pedagogical abilities of the Bishop of Jerusalem.
A Novel Isotopic Technique to Distinguish Nitrogen Source in Downhole Sampling of Natural Gas
Authors: Alrowaie Mohammad A. , Lu Feng H. , Mahmoud Derar I. , Sequeira Daryl S. 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Understanding the origin of non-hydrocarbons in natural gases is crucial in the exploration and production cycle. High nitrogen (N2) contents are occasionally observed during bottom-hole samples collection. A novel geochemical approach, including gas compositions, and stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes, was used to assess the origin of high N2 content collected from several bottom-hole samples. The results suggest that the measured samples are likely to be contaminated from the pressurized N2 cylinder used for gas lifting and sampling. The values of the nitrogen isotopic compositions (δ15N) of the analyzed samples with high N2 concentrations are similar to the pressurized N2 cylinder used for gas lifting and sampling. The contamination in pressurized N2 compensated cylinder is due to N2 leakage from the N2 side to the sample side of the chamber while conducting downhole fluid sampling. Our mass-balance calculation suggests that the contamination percentages (i.e., amount of leaked N2) from the pressurized N2 cylinder into the samples is up to 70 mol%. One of the major causes of high N2 content in natural gas is the occurrence of thermochemical sulfate reduction (TSR). The measured chemical and carbon isotopic compositions of the hydrocarbons indicate the absence of thermochemical sulfate reduction in the analyzed samples. The findings of this study provide geochemical evidence that help to solve problems while sampling and reducing the investment risks encountered with high N2 content during exploration and production cycles.
L’Intelligence Artificielle et ses « contextes » : entre l’éthique et le politique
Authors: KHATCHATOUROV Armen 
Published: April 2024

Cette contribution s’attachera d‘abord à examiner la manière dont la notion de contexte joue un rôle central dans l’histoire du numérique et de l’IA d’un côté et dans celle du droit relatif à la protection des données personnelles de l’autre, pour examiner ensuite la manière dont elle rejoue la conception de la subjectivité, de la normativité et de l’éthique. Nous montrerons comment cette évolution est parallèle à la mise en place de la gouvernementalité néolibérale ou de celle qualifiée plus récemment d’algorithmique, et comment il nous confronte à la portée non seulement éthique mais aussi politique de l’IA ubiquitaire. Notre démarche vise deux apports : une proposition complémentaire de classification des IA, qui repose sur l’évolution du rôle que le contexte joue dans l’action et l’éthos de l’utilisateur ; une heuristique renouvelée afin de saisir l’articulation entre l’opérationnalisation des systèmes et le maintien de l’autodétermination informationnelle ou, en d’autres mots, entre l’efficacité technique et la normativité sociale.
Acceptabilité sociale du numérique et droits de la santé
Authors: LAPLAUD Ambre 
Published: April 2024

Les politiques françaises, européennes et mondiales font du numérique en santé un pilier des stratégies portant à la fois sur la performance, la qualité du système de santé et la lutte contre les inégalités en santé. Cependant, l’acceptabilité sociale de ces politiques est un enjeu fort et nécessaire, non seulement pour le renforcement de droits collectifs – contribuant à faire vivre une démocratie sanitaire participative – et individuels. Ainsi, le droit du numérique en santé est un construit social. Cette construction dynamique proposée par le concept d’acceptabilité sociale vise l’appropriation du numérique en santé par l’ensemble de la population. Toutefois, ce concept issu des sciences sociales n’en demeure pas moins une notion juridique originale : elle renvoie à la légitimité de la norme autant qu’aux créateurs de celle-ci. Par ailleurs, elle imposerait une démarche semblable au principe constitutionnel de précaution. Mais la difficulté à faire « consensus » pour le numérique en santé, dans un espace globalisé, implique que les juridictions ne puissent faire peser de nouvelles obligations positives à la charge des Etats dans leurs choix de politique publique en santé numérique. Le droit à la protection de la santé serait alors à géométrie variable en Europe, son effectivité dépendrait de l’acceptabilité sociale et éthique du numérique.
