Prognostic Value Of Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes Among HER-2+ Breast Cancer Patients Receiving Trastuzumab-Based Adjuvant Therapy
Authors: Safitri Diah Ari , Ghozali Ahmad , Kurnianda Johan 
Published: March 2023

Background: Tumor Infiltrating Lymphocytes (TILs) have prognostic value on HER2 positive breast cancer (BC). The absence of standardized method for evaluating TILs causes variations in results of previous studies. This study is performed to evaluate the prognostic value of TILs in HER2 positive BC treated with trastuzumab-based adjuvant therapy using standardized method recommended by the International TILs Working Group.
Aim: To analyze the prognostic value of TILs in HER2 positive BC patients receiving trastuzumab-based adjuvant therapy at Dr. Sardjito General Hospital, Yogyakarta and to analyze proportion differences between high TILs (≥30%) and low TILs (<30%).
Methods: This is a retropective cohort study on HER2 positive, stage 1-3 BC patients who received trastuzumab-based adjuvant therapy. Histopathology slides from 6 hospitals/laboratoriums were analyzed by two pathologists.
Results: 73 data were available for analysis. TILs stroma <30% was 65,8% and most patients received combination of anthracyclines, taxanes and trastuzumab (67,1%). There was no difference of overall survival between high and low TILs (p log rank: 0,331).
Conclusion: HER2 positive BC with high TILs did not show better overall survival compared to those with low TILs. The proportion of HER2 positive breast cancer with high TILs was lower than those with low TILs.

Published: March 2023

This restrospective study is to determine the rate of psychiatric pathologies of adolescents who come for examination and treatment at the Department of Adolescent Health - National Children's Hospital from January 2020 to April 2021. We use the ICD-10 International Classification of Diseases for diagnosis. The mental illnesses accounted for 27.9% of the adolescents who came for examination and treatment. Among psychiatric pathologies, three groups with the highest rates are behavioural and emotional disorders with onset usually occurring in childhood and adolescence (chapter F9) with 45.9%, neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders (chapter F4) (29.4%) and mood [affective] disorders (chapter F3) (8.1%). Among the psychiatric pathologies, mood disorder; anxiety and behaviour disorder are the highest prevalent. We recommend to provide training to human resources in psychiatric specialties to effectively treat these conditions.
Television viewing and body fat distribution among Bengali school children of Kolkata, India
Authors: Sarkar Sovanjan 
Published: March 2023

Background: Childhood obesity is considered as a major concern since a couple of decades. The increasing prevalence of childhood obesity is clear and concerns about the future health impact of childhood obesity are currently well documented. Low level of physical activity, high quantity of fat rich junk food consumption and prolonged leisure time with television (TV) viewing were reported to be significantly associated with obesity.
Objective: The present study aims to evaluate the association of body fat distribution with television watching among school going Bengali children of Kolkata, India.
Sample and Methods: 200 girls (aged 10-15 years) from a very heterogeneous background were selected from one state school. Data on socio-demographic aspects, TV viewing, computer use, physical activity and dietary pattern were collected by pretested questionnaire after obtaining prior consent from competent persons. Anthropometric measurements were taken following standard techniques.
Results: Most of the participants preferred fat rich junk food and a few practice regular exercises. One-way ANOVA showed significant differences of body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC) and mid upper arm circumference (MUAC) between groups depending on the duration of TV viewing. The adiposity related variables were standardized by standard deviation score before the inferential analyses. Adjusted multiple linear regression showed positive effects of the duration of TV viewing on BMI (R2=0.233) and MUAC (R2=0.277).
Conclusion: Irrespective of economic status, prolonged television watching leads to an adverse body fat distribution among teenage girls of Kolkata.

Against Focusing on the Internal Conditions of Nietzschean Greatness
Authors: Mollison James A. 
Published: March 2023

Abstract:
After reconstructing three arguments for Nietzsche’s descriptive analysis of the self as complex, this article clarifies some of greatness’s psychological conditions. It then offers three arguments for why we should not focus on these internal conditions when seeking to verify or to achieve greatness. First, Nietzsche’s descriptive analysis of the self renders introspection too coarse-grained and error-prone to verify the subtle type of unity required for greatness. Second, Nietzsche associates introspective appraisal of one’s psyche with a moral project that weakens and represses the drives, such that inquiry into whether greatness’s internal conditions are satisfied typically speaks against their realization. Finally, the actions characteristic of Nietzsche’s great individuals prohibit introspective preoccupation with oneself. These arguments suggest that we should attend to outwardly directed accomplishments, rather than psychology, when appraising the greatness of others and seeking to become great ourselves.
Leyla McCalla’s Tributes to Langston Hughes
Authors: Vrana Laura 
Published: March 2023

ABSTRACTClassically trained Black musician Leyla McCalla’s album Vari-Colored Songs: A Tribute to Langston Hughes (2014) intertwines innovative folk- and blues-inspired settings of Hughes’s blues poetry, interpretations of traditional Haitian folk songs, and original compositions. This article argues that the album constitutes both a vital homage to Hughes’s impact on Black diasporic culture and a feminist boundary-breaking reshaping of the expectations of the hegemonic, white-washing contemporary music industry. It reads together the album’s ambitious liner notes, accompanying visual elements, and sonic choices of selected tracks to show how McCalla, by innovatively syncretizing typically disparate genres, inherits and extends the radical political and cultural tradition of the blues women whom Hughes’s poetry often depicted. Thus, it draws on frameworks from Hughes criticism and from performance studies scholars such as Daphne Brooks to suggest that Black female artists like McCalla warrant the attention of diasporic cultural critics equally to and alongside aesthetic ancestors like Hughes who inspire them. These women are epistemologically intervening in the construction of literary and cultural history through projects like Vari-Colored Songs, an impressive artifact that wrenchingly brings together traditions to address diasporic problems such as eco-precarity and to celebrate Black women’s resilient persistence through such endemic conditions.

Published: March 2023

The increasing occurrence of non-performing loans can cause non-performing loans (NPL) loans to rise and have an impact on the Bank. Non-Performing Loan is the main parameter or ratio to measure the level of credit health in the banking sector, NPL consists of non-performing loans, so banks, especially the credit department, must be careful when realizing credit so that the credit is not problematic. This study aims to analyze the relationship between Bank X and Bank Y related to the implementation of credit governance and sustainable Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) during the COVID-19 Pandemic at Bank X and Bank Y. Implementation of credit governance at Bank X and Bank Y is used as three pillars that are interconnected with Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) related to credit loans during the COVID-19 era by developing the MSE Funding TJSL program. This is in line with the contribution of Bank X and Bank Y to Sustainable Economic Development (SDGs), namely in goal number 8 of Decent Work and Economic Growth. The implementation of ISO 26000 in organizational governance, fair operating practices, and consumer issues in both banks is well implemented. Sample the study by interviewing 14 respondents and using Content Analysis. The results showed that Bank X and Bank Y have implemented three ESG pillars as sustainable business efforts in Sustainable Banking, Sustainable Operation, and Sustainable Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) during the COVID-19 pandemic. The two banks, namely Bank X and Bank Y have implemented sustainable business practices (Good) Corporate Governance & Sustainability Business in Banking). The existence of market risk, liquidity, legal risk and reputational risk, the strategic risk to both Banks does not affect the Bank in implementing sustainability practices.

L’annotation de poème et sa mise en voix : une approche sensible au service de l’oralité.
Authors: Fallenbacher-Clavien Francine , Michelet Valérie 
Published: March 2023

Cet article analyse le travail d’annotation/mise en voix d’un poème réalisé en classe primaire (élèves de 11-12 ans) de Suisse romande. Il s’agit de comprendre comment les élèves, par petits groupes, abordent l’oralité du texte poétique en exerçant une mise en voix collective, et si cette activité est source d’interprétations du poème. La mise en voix prend place dans une séquence débutant par une compréhension dirigée du poème, construite sur l’expérience sensible, par le mime, l’attention aux sonorités et les associations mentales, avant son annotation sur le mode d’une partition de musique. Cette proposition de « tressage » entre compréhension et exploration sensible du texte offrirait les conditions d’une didactique de l’interprétation du poème par sa mise en voix, en équilibrant découverte sensible et construction minimale d’une compréhension partagée. Les résultats obtenus permettent d’interroger la pertinence de ce dispositif et de proposer quelques pistes de régulation.

2 - What Should Globalisation Mean for African Humanities and Why?
Authors: Ugwuanyi Lawrence Ogbo 
Published: March 2023

This work sets out to engage the ideology of globalisation by interrogating the notion of humanities that has been applied to study the concept. To do this, it addresses the following question: if the idea of globalisation was interrogated from the idea of man (being human)1 and studies of human nature informed by the values, principles and norms that define the idea of humankind from the African worldview, what would it amount to? What ideals would drive such a project and what difference would it make for the human community? To address these questions, the article will locate African humanities through what it calls the dominant humanities orientation in Africa, defined as the study of man (being human) available through the intellectual industry of modern Africa and inscribed through various subjects studied in the humanities in African institutions. Thereafter, it will proceed to locate what man (being human) would mean, assuming that effort is made to locate the meaning through the African endogenous worldview. The article will next proceed to articulate the gains of applying the African endogenous idea of man (being human) in articulating and directing globalisation. The method applied is an inductive analysis of views and positions in the humanities, African thought and globalisation.
6 - Compassionate Imagination and Respect for Student Diversity1 in Effective Doctoral Supervision in African Universities
Authors: Najjuma Saidah Mbooge 
Published: March 2023

Achieving the purpose of the doctoral journey through productive interaction requires that the student and supervisor engage with each other’s intellectual views, which means addressing any challenges posed by the student’s diversity. According to Vilakazi (2016), supervisors embrace democratic justice in contributing to society by supervising students, using their expertise to take care of students’ rights, enabling deliberative engagement and exposing them to critical learning. This is done through the interaction of voices, cultures, values and perspectives, amidst differences. Yet, engaging with diversity can bring about uncertainty, anxiety and other discomfort (Nieminin and Valcke 2018), which, if not handled well can be detrimental to a student’s progress. Identifying, accepting and understanding differences and similarities that exist between individual students and supervisors, to fully utilise their talents and abilities during the supervisory relationship, is an important contribution to knowledge creation. This article explores the notion of compassionate imagination2 as a cata yst to realising respect for student diversity in effective doctoral supervision.
7 - Navigating the Delicate Balance between Academia and Administration through Transformational Leadership in a South African University
Authors: Landa Nhlanhla 
Published: March 2023

This study investigated the challenges faced by middle-level academic leaders at a university in South Africa. It was guided by the transformational leadership approach. The study found that heads of departments faced many challenges, including disruption of the teaching programme, due to meetings and other responsibilities as well as persistent student protests, too much paperwork as a result of reporting to higher management, and lack of leadership induction. The study also established that there was minimal academic career growth for academics in middle-level academic leadership during the time they were in those positions, due to the pressure that came with the office, which reduced research activities. There is a lack of support in terms of capacity-building for heads of departments, which functions as an impediment to career growth among middle-level academic leaders. Once they get into leadership positions, most academics sacrifice their academic careers to satisfy the administrative demands of their office. Balancing academia and administration at the sampled university was very difficult for the middle-level managers. The study recommends that the university develops and implements a practical strategy for middle-level academic managers, which would allow them to strike a balance between the administration and academic sides of their careers.
2 - Competencies and Proficiencies in Special Education: The Case of Ethiopian Universities
Authors: Woldehana Workneh E. , Teferra Damtew 
Published: March 2023

This study explores and analyses the competencies and proficiencies of final- year university students studying special education in two public higher education institutions in Ethiopia. A total of fifty-five final-year students were purposefully sampled with the results that these students severely lacked the requisite competencies and proficiencies in areas and skills that are crucial for personal and professional advancement in higher education. The study also observes that the training of university students does not sufficiently incorporate practical experiences and effective exposure to the tools and methods that schools employ to provide robust special education services. The study, based on the analysis of knowledge of the Individual Education Plan, concludes that final-year students involved in this study lack the requisite competencies, experiences and proficiencies which are key skills necessary for special education teachers.
5 - ICT Utilisation and Associated barriers in Teaching among Middle-level Academics in Nigerian Universities
Authors: Oyefara John Lekan , Adejoh Pius , Adisa Waziri B. , Abdulsalam Khadeejah A. , Alabi Tunde 
Published: March 2023

This article seeks to understand the barriers to information and com- munications technology (ICT) utilisation among middle-level academics in Nigerian universities. It makes use of a cross-sectional survey and key informant interviews to interrogate the problem. A total of 1,325 middle- level lecturers drawn from 12 South-western Nigerian universities took part in the study. Because of the nature and character of the Nigerian state and the historical contexts of its higher education, the political economy approach was adopted along with ICT utilisation resistance theory to explain barriers to ICT utilisation in Nigerian universities. The article finds that there is a significant relationship between the availability, utilisation and quality of teaching in Nigerian universities. Specifically, it finds that in universities where lecturers had tablets they were 1.5 times more likely to deliver quality teaching. It also finds that in universities where lecturers used multimedia projectors, students were 2.7 times more likely to receive quality teaching. On the barriers to ICT utilisation, the article finds that lack of funding, lack of strong institutional policy and support infrastructure such as broadband internet connectivity and constant electricity supply are among the major constraints to ICT-based higher education. It therefore suggests the development of a comprehensive policy on ICT-based education and massive investment in university education in Nigeria.
8 - Existe-t-il un effet genre dans les performances académiques des étudiants dans les facultés des sciences économiques et de gestion au Cameroun ? Cas de la FSEG de l’université de Yaoundé II
Authors: Atala Étienne 
Published: March 2023

L’objectif de cette recherche est de déterminer s’il existe un effet de genre dans la performance des étudiants à la faculté des sciences économiques et de gestion de l’université de Yaoundé 2. La performance des étudiants est étudiée sous une double perspective : la sélectivité et le succès aux examens. Nous avons utilisé une analyse de flux et un modèle multinomial séquentiel pour étudier cette performance. À partir de la cohorte d’étudiants de 2015-2016, constituée de 2 488 individus, les résultats montrent que l’écart de performance dans cette faculté est sexué en faveur des filles. Ces dernières présentent un taux de sélectivité plus faible que celui des hommes ; de plus, leurs chances e réussite sont plus élevées que celles des hommes à tous les niveaux d’étude.
Towards a New Conceptual Framework of Student Activism in South Africa
Authors: Teferra Damtew , Ntuli Mthokozisi Emmanuel 
Published: March 2023

While the phenomenon of student activism is not new in South Africa, it has escalated recently and has taken on new forms. The literature expounds the emergence of a new modality of student activism in the form of protest movements employing social media as mobilisation tools. While such activism traditionally manifested itself in student representation in university governance structures and student demonstrations, protest movements and social media have emerged as its modern manifestation in South Africa. This article systematically analyses extant theories and conceptual frameworks to assess their relevance to these new modalities. After closely analysing key conceptual frameworks including Stakeholder Theory, the Ideal-type Regime of Governance Model and the Activist Leadership Model, it demonstrates their limitations for describing the emerging trends of student activism in South Africa, the paper proposes a new and robust conceptual model called Unbounded Student Activism.
African Culture and the Quest for Sustainable and Improved Indigenous Knowledge Production: Nigeria and South Africa in Perspective
Authors: Idowu Harrison Adewale 
Published: March 2023

Culture is the way of life of a people. But Western culture has deprived Africa of most of its cultural practices and values. The jettisoning of the African way of life for a Western one has affected indigenous knowledge production. Beaming the light on South Africa and Nigeria, this article interrogates the impact of culture/African ways of knowing on indigenous knowledge production in Africa, and unravels how much Africa has been able to incorporate its culture in knowledge production systems amid the penetration and preponderance of alien culture. It relies on historical perspective and document analysis. The article finds that African ways of knowing have been largely eroded in Nigeria, and that South Africa fares better but still faces some challenges. This has negatively affected the quest for sustained and improved indigenous knowledge production, vis-à-vis finding lasting solutions to the peculiar political, economic and social problems in these countries. It concludes that if Nigeria and South Africa, and indeed the African continent, are to attain sustainable and improved indigenous knowledge production, they must preserve African ways of knowing, without which indigenous knowledge production will remain in the abyss.
