AN INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECT OF ACCELERATED PROMOTION ON THE ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE OF JUNIOR SECONDARY STUDENTS IN BENIN CITY, NIGERIA
Authors: KENNEDY IMASUEN , IYOBOSA OSAGIEDE 
Published: February 2023

The enrolment of primary four and five pupils into Junior Secondary School one also known as Upper Basic 1 in the Nigerian educational system and even in some parts of the world is astronomically on the increase. This has reduced the number of years required for pupils to sit for cognitive and placement examinations. When these children passed the examination, they are moved to Junior Secondary school, or high school not taking cognizance of the fact that making them take the jump without completing the scheme of work for those classes they jumped will affect their performance in the future. This jumping or skipping of classes is known as acceleration or automatic promotion. Above all, will the children with this poor foundation be able to compete favorably with others who spent the required six years?.
This study, therefore, investigated the effect of accelerated promotion on the academic performance of secondary school students in Benin City, Nigeria. The population consisted of primary four, five, and six, pupils admitted into the Junior Secondary School one (JSS 1) in the 2019/2020 academic session in Benin City. The sample size for the study was 600 students selected from primary four, and five pupils admitted into JSS1. The instrument for the study was a proforma designed by the researcher. The data collected were analyzed using frequency counts, mean, standard deviation, one-way Analysis of Variance, and two-way Analysis of Variance at a 0.05 level of significance. The findings that emerged from the study showed that the rate of primary four and five pupils admitted into Junior Secondary School one was high, the pupils in primary six that were admitted into Junior Secondary School one performed better than those who were admitted into primary four and five. It was also revealed that school ownership, parents’ socio-economic status, and qualification had a significant effect on primary four and five pupils’ admission into Junior Secondary School one. However, students’ gender and school location did not yield significant effects. It was therefore recommended that stakeholders in education should be sensitized on the danger of accelerated promotion of students from lower class to higher ones, and privately owned secondary schools should be monitored on the issue of accelerated promotion of pupils from primary four, five to Junior Secondary School one.

Indonesia is a constitutional state, which means that almost every action taken in it is regulated in accordance with applicable legal provisions. The State Administrative Court is one form of implementing the rule of law. This state administrative court is regulated in Law no. 5 of 1986 concerning the State Administrative Court which is the realization of the provisions of Article 24 of the 1945 Constitution and Article of Law No. 14 of 1970 which was amended by Law no. 35 of 1999 concerning Main Provisions of Judicial Power, whose authority is to inspect to protect and develop and maintain state administration that is appropriate according to law or according to law or is appropriate effectively or functions efficiently. Today if we analyze the existing laws in Indonesia socially, there are still many people who are less concerned about the concepts and objectives of the laws issued by the government. therefore, from this journal, the author intends to provide legal education related to the position of state administrative justice in Indonesia.

Data: a cosmopolitical approach
Authors: Danholt Peter , Bonde Klausen Morten , Bossen Claus 
Published: February 2023

In this paper, we propose a cosmopolitical approach to, and under­standing of, data, based on the work of Isabelle Stengers. This entails appreciating data as constituted through multiple actors and actions, and, accordingly, as something capable of producing unanticipated, surprising consequences. Cosmopolitics helps us think about data, and datafication, as actors in a more-than-human world in ways that transgress a common and widespread perception of data as either neutral, objective and representational or as socially constructed, perspectivist and endowed with human politics. The argument is thus that data and datafication change practices and can bring forth novel layers and qualities of those practices. We explore data through a cos­mopolitical approach using two empirical examples generated during 2013-2017, where the authors carried out ethnographic fieldwork in a project on governing and managing healthcare data. We conclude by proposing the term cosmo-data-politics and discuss the implications of this neologism.

BackgroundMicroplastics (MPs) are pollutants in rivers and marine environments. Rivers can be sources and sinks of MPs that enter the biota. Previous studies focusing on freshwater species are quite limited, especially for gastropods. Freshwater gastropods are essential to aquatic ecosystems because they are food to other aquatic animals, such as fish, shrimp, and crabs. They are a crucial link in the food chain between water resources and human food. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate MP accumulation in freshwater gastropods, commonly known as snails (Filopaludina sumatrensisspeciosaandPomacea canaliculata), in a river flowing into a shallow coastal lagoon.MethodIn this study, snail tissue samples were digested with 30% hydrogen peroxide. The mixture was heated at 60 °C for 24 h. MP particles were identified, counted, and characterized (shape, size, and color) by visual identification under a stereomicroscope. Furthermore, polymer-type identification was performed using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was applied for the statistical analysis.ResultsThe MPs found were as follows: 4.76 particles/individual were found inF. sumatrensis speciosaupstream, 5.20 particles/individual were found inF. sumatrensis speciosadownstream, 7.28 particles/individual were found inP. canaliculataupstream, and 4.00 particles/individual were found inP. canaliculatadownstream. It was found in the two-way ANOVA that the accumulation of MPs in gastropods was affected by species and study sites (upstream and downstream). There was a significant difference in the amount of MPs inP. canaliculatabetween upstream and downstream sites (p= 0.003). Fibers were the most common MPs in both species. Moreover,P. canaliculataupstream had the most significant amount of MPs. The smallest amount of MPs was recorded forP. canaliculatadownstream, but there was great diversity in shape, size, and polymer type. MPs sized 500 μm–1mm were the most common in both species. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy revealed six polymers: poly (ethylene terephthalate), polypropylene, rayon, polyethyleneimine, polyamine, and poly(propylene: ethylene). The occurrence of MPs in gastropods is alarming for food security in Thailand. The results of this study can be used to support baseline data on MP accumulation among freshwater gastropods.

This current study was conducted at Qaha Vegetable Research Farm (Qalubia Governorate), Horticulture Research Institute, Agriculture Research Center (A. R. C.), Egypt, during the two winter seasons of 2020/2021 and 2021/2022 on broad bean (Vicia faba L.) plants Weaam cv. The aim of this work was to investigate the influence of foliar application of paclobutrazol (PBZ) at three different doses i.e. 25, 50 and 75 mg/ L at three times; at the vegetative growth, at the peak flowering and at the pod setting stages i.e. at 60, 80 and 100 days after sowing (D.A.S.), respectively as well as pinching technique treatments which were done at three times; the 1st one at plants had 60 cm, the 2nd at 80 cm and the 3rd at 100 cm from the plant height per plant by removing the tip of the main stem of broad bean plants, under the two winter seasons condition on the vegetative growth characteristics, total green pods, dry seed yields and its constituents as well as the quality of the dry seed of broad bean plants. The experimental design was arranged in a complete randomized block design with three replications.
The results indicated that, all the tested treatments significantly affected increased the vegetative growth characteristics (with the exception of the plant height in the two winter seasons, respectively), total green pods, dry seed yields, its components and chemical constituents in dry seeds as compared with the control treatment. In this case, among the different concentrations of foliar spraying paclobutrazol treatment at the rate of 50 mg/ L shows the best result as compared with the other two treatments i.e. 75 and 100 mg/ L. About the stimulatory effects of broad bean plants with pinching technique treatments either at flowering stage or at the pod setting stage, which were the best treatments and markedly improved the most of all the pervious studied characters of broad bean plants and dry seed quality as compared with the other pinching technique treatment i.e. at the vegetative growth stage and no pinching treatment.
The Amount of Knowledge Awareness on the Caries Risk Assessment Tools and It’s Management Strategies in Children among Dental Students
Authors: Ushanthika T. , George Mebin 
Published: February 2023

Introduction: Early detection of risk factors and implementation of oral health preventative activities can help to slow or stop the spread of caries. As a result, dentists must be well-versed in a variety of approaches and early preventative methods.
Aim of the Study: The aim of the study is to create knowledge and awareness on the caries risk assessment tools and it’s management strategies in children among dental students.
Methodology: A questionnaire survey was carried out online containing 10 questions and was sent to 100 students on the caries risk assessment tools and it’s management strategies in children among dental students. An online survey was conducted using survey planet software and the data was collected and completely analysed for statistical difference.
Results: According to our findings, the majority of undergraduates believe that a child should see a dentist between the ages of 12 and 22, and that specific information gained from a systematic assessment of caries risk guides the dentist in the decision-making process for treatment and preventive protocols for children (66 percent of undergraduates and 18 percent of postgraduates).
Conclusion: Dental practitioners have a critical role in preventing and minimising the severity of ECC in young children, and they can use preventive treatment regimens to assess their paediatric patients' caries risk.

ImportanceMost studies, especially in primary prevention patients, have evaluated N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) at one time point. Evaluation of change in NT-proBNP may improve risk stratification for incident cardiovascular events.ObjectiveTo assess the association between change in NT-proBNP and risk for incident heart failure (HF) and death.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsParticipants were recruited from 4 US communities enrolled in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Community (ARIC) study. Individuals who attended ARIC visits 2 and 4 (approximately 6 years apart) with measurements of NT-proBNP and without prevalent HF were included. Assays of NT-proBNP were conducted between 2011 and 2013, and analysis took place between July 2021 and October 2022.ExposuresThe primary exposure variable was NT-proBNP change between visits 2 and 4, modeled as change categories (&amp;lt;125 pg/mL or ≥125 pg/mL) and as percent change.Main Outcomes and MeasuresThe primary outcome measures were incident HF hospitalization and all-cause death. The association between changes in cardiovascular risk factors with change in NT-proBNP was further assessed.ResultsA total of 9776 individuals (mean [SD] age, 57.1 [5.7] years at visit 2; 5523 [56.5%] women) were included in the study. Compared with participants with NT-proBNP level less than 125 pg/mL at both visits, participants with NT-proBNP level of 125 pg/mL or higher at both visits had an increase in incident HF (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 2.40 [95% CI, 2.00-2.88]) and mortality risk (HR, 1.68 [95% CI, 1.47-1.91). Participants with NT-proBNP levels of 125 pg/mL or higher at visit 2 and less than 125 pg/mL at visit 4 had similar risk for HF and death (HR, 1.01 [95% CI, 0.71-1.43]; HR, 0.79 [95% CI, 0.61-1.01]) compared with the group with NT-proBNP levels of less than 125 pg/mL at both visits. The percent change in NT-proBNP was positively associated with HF and death (HR, 1.06 [95% CI, 1.02-1.10]; HR, 1.05 [95% CI, 1.03-1.08] per 1-SD increase, respectively). Change in systolic blood pressure, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, triglyceride level, body mass index, and estimated glomerular filtration rate were significantly associated with change in NT-proBNP.Conclusions and RelevanceIn this study, 6-year change in NT-proBNP reflected dynamic change in risk for HF events and death among community-dwelling adults without prevalent clinical HF. These results support the utility of serial NT-proBNP measurements to improve risk stratification of patients with pre-HF.

Published: February 2023

ImportanceMajor depression (MD) aggregates within families, but how family history of MD confers risk of MD over the life course is unclear. Such knowledge is important to identify and prevent possible depressogenic effects of family environment.ObjectiveTo examine the association between family MD history and risk of MD including association with age, sex, type of kinship, and age of the affected family member.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis cohort study included all Danish citizens born from 1960 to 2003 with known parental identity followed up from their 15th birthday until time of MD, censoring, or December 31, 2018. Analysis took place between April 2022 and December 2022.ExposuresFamily members with first-time MD using International Classification of Diseases, Eighth Revision codes 296.09, 296.29, 298.09, and 300.49 or 10th Revision codes F32.0-F33.9, family members’ age at MD onset, and individuals’ age at exposure to family MDMain Outcomes and MeasuresMultivariable Poisson regression was applied to estimate the incidence rate ratio (IRR) with 95% CI of first-time MD.ResultsOf 2 903 430 individuals (1 486 574 [51.2%] men), 37 970 men (2.6%) and 70 223 women (5.0%) developed MD during follow-up. For men, exposure to maternal, paternal, or full sibling MD were associated with a 2-times higher risk of MD (IRR, 2.10 [95% CI, 2.02-2.19]; IRR, 2.04 [95% CI, 1.94-2.14]; IRR, 2.08 [95% CI, 1.97-2.19]) and the associated risk increased with number of affected family members. This pattern was similar for women. For men, family members’ age at MD onset was not associated with MD. For women, maternal MD onset at 69 years or younger was associated with higher IRRs of MD (age &amp;lt;40 years: IRR, 1.64 [95% CI, 1.28-2.10]; age 40-49 years: IRR, 1.62 [95% CI, 1.27-2.07]; age 50-59 years: IRR, 1.56 [95% CI, 1.22-2.00]; and age 60-69 years: IRR, 1.67 [95% CI, 1.28-2.16]) compared with women with maternal MD onset at 70 years or older. For men, exposure to maternal MD younger than 30 years (age &amp;lt;1 year: IRR, 1.95 [95% CI, 1.70-2.25]; age 1 to &amp;lt;12 years: IRR, 2.31 [95% CI, 2.16-2.47]; age 12 to &amp;lt;19 years: IRR, 2.18 [95% CI, 2.03-2.35]; age 19 to &amp;lt;30 years: IRR, 1.42 [95% CI, 1.32-1.53]) was associated with increased IRRs, while exposure to maternal MD at 30 years or older was associated with a lower IRR (0.77 [95% CI, 0.70-0.85]). The findings were similar across type of kinships and for women.Conclusions and RelevanceIn this study, risk of MD was associated with increased numbers of affected family members but did not vary by gender or type of kinship. Exposure to family MD during childhood and adolescence was associated with increased risk.
