Authors: Kingu Ukende Apollo , Ismail Ismail J. , Kibusi Stephen M. 
Published: December 2023

Background : Examining the financial managerial competency of primary healthcare facility managers is very important. Despite its importance, empirical investigation is limited in this area. To contribute mpirical evidence on this subject this study looked at Tanzania's public primary healthcare facility managers.
Materials and Methods : The study was conducted in Kondoa, Iramba and Sumbawanga District Councils in Tanzania. This research adopted a cross-sectional research design. A census sampling strategy was employed to obtain primary data from 102 public primary healthcare facility managers. The Statistical Product and Service Solution (SPSS) Version 25 was used to analyse the data.
Results : Findings reveal that slightly more than half (57.85%) of managers were competent whereas (42.15%) of them were less competent in acting on the financial statements. In monitoring financial performance (47.53%) were less competent and (52.47%) were competent. Also, in developing budgets following organisational objectives, (50.97%) were less competent and (49.03%) were competent. Additionally, in managing budgets by organisational objectives, (45.09%) were less competent and (54.91%) were competent. Furthermore, in establishing and maintaining the organisation's insurance contracts and financial relationships, (53.92%) were less competent and (46.08%) were competent.
Conclusions : Nearly half of the facility managers in selected Tanzanian District Councils demonstrated competence in financial statement analysis, performance monitoring, budget development, and managing insurance contracts and financial relationships.
Recommendations : This study recommends improving the financial managerial competency of facility managers in all areas of financial management roles as a key area of investment in efforts to improve the management of primary healthcare facilities.

Published: December 2023

Background: The burden of diabetes is high and rising in every country, fueled by the global rise in the prevalence of obesity and unhealthy lifestyles.
Objective: This study assessed the effects of raw and boiled garlic extract on body weight, fasting blood glucose, and lipid profile of alloxan-induced adult male Wistar rats.
Materials and methods: Fresh garlic bulbs were peeled, washed, and drained after which they were divided into 2 equal portions. The rats were grouped into seven based on body weight with a difference not more than ±5g per group. Each group was labeled A, B, C, D, E, F, and G with 4 rats in each group. Rats in groups A, B, and C were administered 10mg, 20mg and 30mg of raw garlic extract per kilogram body weight, respectively while rats in groups D, E, and F were administered 10mg, 20mg, and 30mg of cooked garlic extract per kilogram body weight respectively then group G rats (control; induced but not treated) were administered with 10mg of plain water per kilogram body weight. All statistical analysis was carried out using IBM SPSS statistical software, version 21. All values obtained were expressed as mean and standard deviation. Paired sample t-test was used to compare baseline and end values. Differences in mean were considered significant at P <0.05.
Results: There was a significant (P <0.05) decrease in the fasting blood glucose level of the rats administered the experimental diets. A significant (P <0.05) decrease in body weight was observed in rats fed the experimental diets while the weight of the control group increased significantly. The total cholesterol and triglyceride levels of all the groups increased, however, the control had the highest (38.56% & 40.45%) percentage increase (P <0.05).
Conclusion: Garlic extract has a significant effect in reducing body weight and blood glucose levels.

Using Morphological and Etymological Approaches In Teaching Foreign Language
Authors: Asmaa’ Sirry Mahmoud  
Published: December 2023

Etymology is the study of the history of the form of words and, by extension, the origin and evolution of their semantic meaning across time. It is a subfield of historical linguistics, and draws upon comparative semantics, morphology, semiotics, and phonetics. Etymology refers to the origin or derivation of a word.(also known as a lexical change) Etymology is important in teaching because it gives both the teacher and the learner the ability to understand the interconnectedness of history with language. Understanding the interconnectedness of words with each other and the way that words have brought people together and divided them over the centuries has distinctive effects on a pedagogical process. Etymology is the key that unlocks both knowledge and a love of knowledge. Many English learners have their first language as one that is a Latin-based Romance language as Spanish. Many others have a language that is commonly spoken in that is also a Latin-based language. When we teach vocabulary, including the etymology of the word makes it much more likely that our students who are learning English will understand the word better and more quickly. Even students who are not native speakers of a Latin-based language can still benefit from etymology because etymology is the ultimate two-for-one special. When you know one prefix, you probably get access to dozens or even hundreds of applications of that prefix. In this way, etymology becomes somewhat like a master key where, by teaching a single definition we unlock that word, but by teaching the etymology, we unlock many. With etymology, learners start to understand the interconnectedness of language and culture, as well as the interconnectedness of history with language. They had better understand the interconnectedness of words with each other and the way that words have brought people together and divided them over the centuries. Morphology is the study of the internal structure of words and forms a core part of linguistic study today. The term (morphology ) is Greek and is a make-up of morph-meaning “shape, form’”, and –ology which means “ the study of something”. For English teachers, etymology is a threshold concept, alongside its linguistic brother morphology (morphology being the study of forms of words, including prefixes, root words and suffixes, etc.), Many methodologists and teachers do believe that knowledge of etymology facilitates the guessing, recognizing, understanding, and remembering the meanings of words and that this approach is the very heart of word study. The paper presented the use of morphological and etymological approach in teaching foreign language.
