Effect of Instructional Supervision on Education Quality in Secondary Schools in Kaham District, Tanzania
Authors: Tarimo Pudensiana , Lekule Chrispina 
Published: February 2024

The pursuit of quality learning experiences is vital to fostering individual growth, societal progress, and global competitiveness. This paper assessed the role of instructional supervision in the delivery of quality education. This study was conducted in 5 selected secondary schools in Kahama, Tanzania. A mixed research approach and a convergent parallel design were used. One hundred and fifty seven (157) respondents composed of 142 teachers, 5 heads of schools, 5 school board members, 4 ward educational officers and 1 district educational officer were involved. Data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and document analysis. Quantitative data were analysed using Statistical Packages for Social Science (SPSS, version 21) while qualitative data were analysed thematically. The findings indicate that when instructional supervision is conducted appropriately it significantly contributes to teacher professional growth which in turn contributes to optimizing the quality of education. Additionally, the study found maximum cooperation between supervisors and supervisees to be paramount in instructional supervision. The findings also indicated that for instructional supervision to be effective, school leaders are to promote a culture of academic excellence, by ensuring conducive teaching and learning environment. Moreover, classroom visits should be regarded as supporting and encouraging teachers rather than a faulty finding strategy. Hence, this study is a wakeup call to all those involved in instructional supervision to strive towards promoting a positive mindset towards instructional supervision and to give it the priority it deserves to ensure the achievement of quality education

Objetivo: Comparar as taxas de recidiva local (cúpula vaginal) em pacientes portadoras de câncer de endométrio submetidas à histerectomia via convencional (aberta) versus histerectomia via laparoscópica. Métodos: Revisão narrativa da literatura a partir de estudos clínicos, de coorte e multicêntricos, publicados no período entre 2018 e 2022.
Resultados: Nos estudos de coorte e multicêntricos retrospectivo revisados, as taxas de recidiva local foram semelhantes entre os grupos de mulheres com câncer de endométrio, operadas por via laparotômica e via laparoscópica, mostrando que a ocorrência não está associada à técnica cirúrgica escolhida para o tratamento. A eficácia e a segurança do procedimento laparoscópico estiveram associadas apenas às taxas de sobrevida e morbidade.
Conclusão: Não existe diferenças nas taxas de recidiva local (cúpula vaginal) após tratamento de câncer de endométrio via convencional (laparotômica) e laparoscópica.

In casualty, Casualty Medical Officers come across a maximum number of Medico-legal cases. Any case where the doctor feels that it should be investigated by the Police or a Magistrate is considered as Medico legal case. As it is a Medico legal case, there will be an inquiry by the investigating officer and if needed an Investigating officer may require a report of that case to produce to the court. The doctor who has issued report can be called to the court to give the evidence regarding that case. Identifying the pattern of injuries, types of cases, age-wise distribution, and sex distribution of Medico-legal cases reported to the casualty department of the hospital will help administrators, social workers, NGO’s, and policymakers to successfully manage and prevent such cases by devising necessary policies. A retrospective study was conducted at Employee State Insurance Corporation Medical College, Kalaburagi, Karnataka, India. All the reported cases to casualty between April 2022 and March 2023 at ESIC Medical College, Kalaburagi were analyzed. Total of 452 Medico-legal cases were analyzed which were attended in casualty in span of one year out of total 11288 Casualty cases. In that 344 were male and 108 female patients. In the present study, the maximum MLCs were Road Traffic Accidents, followed by assault, poisoning and others.

Authors: Ishraq Abdul Ameer Salih  
Published: February 2024

Bladder cancer is the 2nd most frequent malignancy of the genitourinary tract and the fourth most common cancer in men . This study was designed to shed light on the association between polymorphism of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) gene at -173 locus as risk factor of bladder cancer in Iraqi population by PCR-RFLP. In a hospital-based case-control study of 70 patients with bladder cancer and 30 cancer-free controls frequency-matched by age, sex, smoking status, and alcohol use, we genotyped the MIF polymorphism and analyzed immunohistochemical stained operational bladder cancer tissue sections for MIF. We found that individuals with GC/GG genotype had a significantly decreased risk of bladder cancer ( OR = 1.55, 95% CI, 0.498 to 8.85) than those with CC genotype. The frequencies of the C allele on the MIF gene were significantly increased in Urinary bladder carcinoma patients. MIF -173G>C polymorphism may play a role in the etiology of bladder cancer in Iraqi.
Morphological and Chemical Analysis of Farzi (Fake) Indian Currency
Authors: Niharika DN  , Rakesh. V  
Published: February 2024

In Forensic Science, Morphological and chemical analysis of farzi currencies plays a very important role in identifying the counterfeit currency. The term “counterfeit” refers to fake or forgery which is an exact replica of the original. As there is a rapid advancement in technology there is a drastic increase in crime rate with respect to technology as well where culprits are using advanced and modern technologies for committing crime, here counterfeit currency falls one among them, where culprits are using wellversed technologies in manufacturing fake notes and coins which cannot be easily recognized by the public. In India though RBI is taking a lot of precautions to overcome counterfeiting by implementing high security features in Indian currency such that it cannot be duplicated easily, some or the other way these fake currencies are circulating in the society and people are lacking knowledge in identifying these fake notes and coins. Some of the security features for identifying these fake currencies is revealed to public by the RBI in its guidelines. Though criminals disguise the original by circulating fake currencies, it is impossible to implement the authenticated security features in it. The composition and its ratio of the original varies from the duplicate which is a loophole, and this can be easily analysed by forensic scientists by keen observations and conducting certain physical and chemical tests. We tried to differentiate between fake and original currencies of India by using RBI guidelines and by performing certain chemical tests through which counterfeit currencies can be analysed.

Published: February 2024

Background: Road traffic accidents are preventable public health issues and are becoming more common. These accidents can be linked to a number of factors, including an increase in the number of vehicles on the roads, changes in daily life, a nasty habit of breaking traffic laws, anarchic traffic systems, and risky driving practices. Thoraco-abdominal injury in different forms is one of the major causes of mortality in the victims of fatal road traffic accidents. The aim of this study was to know the pattern of thoraco-abdominal injuries in victims of fatal road traffic accident cases. Material & Method: The present study was conducted at the tertiary healthcare centre in southern Haryana. Total of 75 cases of fatal road traffic accident cases were enrolled during one year of study period. The basic information about the deceased like age, gender, mode of travel of the victim was obtained from investigating officer narration and inquest papers. During autopsy, detailed examination of injuries was carried out and the autopsy findings were recorded and analyzed. Results: It was observed that out of 75 cases male outnumbered females in ratio 5.25:1. Majority of the victims belonged to the age group 21-30 years. The commonest injury of the thoracic region was rib fracture (41.3%). It was also observed that 17.3% of victims had pelvic fracture. Conclusion: Human error is a major contributing factor to fatal RTAs, which can be avoided in many cases. A more stringent licensing policy, particularly for four-wheelers, increased knowledge of traffic laws, the reduction of drug abuse and an appropriate road network that is in line with traffic volume can help to reduce the number of fatal road traffic accidents.

Authors: Aminnullah Muchammad Fajar 
Published: February 2024

Dewasa ini terdapat isu menarik sekaligus kontroversial yang dikemukakan oleh Panglima TNI Jenderal Andika Perkasa dalam rapat koordinasi untuk seleksi atau rekrutmen anggota TNI baru yang membolehkan keturunan PKI mendaftarkan diri sebagai TNI. Hal tersebut ternyata menuai tak sedikitnya respon negatif oleh sebagai besar publik. Ini menegaskan bahwa masih absennya penerimaan publik terhadap eksistensi dan identitas PKI. Hal ini diakibatkan oleh faktor sejarah panjang mengenai diskriminasi PKI oleh negara yang mana akhirnya menyebabkan polarisasi kembali dan terbaginya pendapat yang kontras dimana ada yang pro dan juga kontra. Melalui hal tersebut, peneliti mencoba mengungkap hal yang mendasari adanya polarisasi serta mengapa ini menjadi kasus yang sangat eksis berdasarkan problematika yang menyangkut identitas dan juga hak kewarganegaraan. Penulis membahas penelitian ini, dengan teori penelitian berupa Citizenship, Polarisasi Politik, dan juga Identitas serta metode penelitian kualitatif. Melalui hal tersebut, penulis menemukan bahwa adanya yang melatar belakangi polarisasi dari keputusan Panglima TNI selain berdasarkan kepada sejarah tetapi identitas politiknya juga.

Abstract
We performed secular monitoring broadband photometric observations on Jupiter Family Comets (JFCs) 68P/Klemola and 78P/Gehrels 2 from 2018 November to 2020 March with the Yaoan High Precision Telescope. Our main purpose is to study the dust activity, coma properties, and dynamical history of the two comets and analyze the activity evolution of 78P/Gehrels 2 in the recent past. We use aperture photometry to obtain the magnitude and the A(0)f
ρ values from the R band observations. The maximum A(0)f
ρ values we recorded for 68P/Klemola and 78P/Gehrels 2 are 339.7 ± 4.4 cm and 1028.1 ± 13.3 cm, respectively, showing that the activity of 68P/Klemola is of middle level while 78P/Gehrels 2 is one of the most active JFCs. The mean color of 78P/Gehrels 2 is (B − V) = 0.88 ± 0.02 and (V − R) = 0.27 ± 0.02. Dynamical history analysis suggests that 78P/Gehrels 2 could have actually resided in this region for a long time in the past 1 Myr, though it recently migrated into the inner solar system. The high activity of 78P/Gehrels 2 reported in the past three perihelion passages could be attributed to the perihelion distance decl. from 2.3 to 2.0 au before 1997 that boosted the water-ice sublimation rate and formed new active regions. The activity decl. over recent apparitions could be attributed to the reformation of the dust mantle.

ObjectiveCurrent recommendations for the management of patients with axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) emphasize the need of an individualized strategy in therapeutic decision-making. The study objectives were to describe therapeutic strategies observed in axSpA, and to assess the factors associated with treatment intensification over time.MethodsWe included patients with axSpA from the French prospective cohort DESIR (Devenir des Spondylarthropathies Indifférenciées Récentes), with a scheduled 10-year follow-up. A multistate model with 4 ordered treatment states (no treatment, nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs [NSAIDs], conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs [csDMARDs], and tumor necrosis factor inhibitors [TNFi]) was defined, with 6 possible transitions. Restricted mean sojourn times in each state were estimated. Then, predictors of those transitions were assessed by multivariable Cox models.ResultsA total of 686/708 (96.9%) patients who had > 1 visit were analyzed. At cohort entry, 199 (29%) were untreated, 427 (62.2%) were receiving NSAIDs, 60 (8.7%) csDMARDs, and none were receiving TNFi. Over the follow-up period, patients mostly (46.4% of the time) received NSAIDs, followed by TNFi (24.4% of the time). The presence of sacroiliitis on radiographs, inflammatory bowel disease, and articular index were jointly associated with the transition to NSAIDs. Longer duration in the previous state often decreased the hazard of the transition to csDMARDs or TNFi. Worse disease activity outcomes increased the hazard of most transitions.ConclusionTo our knowledge, this was the first study using a multistate model to easily represent different treatment states, detailing the transitions across them and their associated factors. Different time profiles for the management of patients with axSpA were identified, including in those abstaining from treatment up to a significant proportion of patients treated with csDMARDs.
Beyond the average: embracing speaker individuality in the dynamic modeling of the acoustic-articulatory relationship
Authors: Lins Machado Carolina , He Lei 
Published: February 2024

This paper explores the acoustic-articulatory relationship while considering individual differences in speech production. We aimed to determine whether there is a causal relationship between tongue movements and the contours of the first and second formant frequencies (F 1 and F 2) employing a hierarchical Bayesian continuous-time dynamic model, which allows for a more direct connection between the acoustic and articulatory measured variables and theories involving dynamicity. The results show predictive tendencies for both formants, where the anteroposterior and vertical tongue movements may predict changes in F 1, with rising predicting an increase and retraction a decrease; and with tongue fronting and tongue height inversely predicting F 2. Further, the modeled individual differences showed similar global tendencies, except for the rate of change of F 2. Overall, this study provides valuable insights into the relationship between tongue articulatory variables and formant contours, while accounting for between-speaker variability.
