Colleges of Education as teachers training institutions in Nigeria have already established policies on the management of examinations but, examination malpractices are still prevailing. Tackling this menace of examination malpractices there is needs for practical strategies different from what is already in operation in Colleges of Education. The purpose of this study was to develop strategies to effectively tackle examination mismanagement and malpractice in Colleges of Education in the North-West Geo-political Zone of Nigeria. The institutional theory and deterrence theory guided the study. The sample size for this study constituted 836 from the total number of 8,360 populations. Proportionate stratified sampling was used to select lecturers and students, simple random sampling for Exams admin officer and further purposive sampling for Deans of schools and Deputy Provosts Academics. The study adopted a mixed methods design. The data was collected using questionnaires, interview schedules, focused group discussions and document analysis. The reliability of the instrument was tested using the Cronbach’s Alpha method and an index value of 0.742 was obtained. The Quantitative Data from the questionnaires were analyzed using frequency count, mean score and the Qualitative Data from interview and focus group discussion were analyzed using transcribed verbatim acquired from the audio recordings. The findings reveal that, students fear of failure, poor invigilation among others are the main factors contributing to examination mismanagement and malpractice. Also, Colleges of Education has already clear policies they are using to reduce exams mismanagement and malpractice and this have shown some success in reducing overt cases of malpractice but their overall effectiveness is limited due to systemic challenges. Finally, increasing the penalties for examination malpractice, improving invigilators training, using biometric identification, installing CCTV cameras in exam halls, increasing public awareness of examination malpractice, and strengthening exam material security procedures are some of the major strategies to mitigate examination mismanagement and malpractice in Colleges of Education. The study recommended installation of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras in examination halls to deter malpractice and improvement of invigilation processes among others.

Objective: To determine the prevalence of postpartum depression (PPD), investigate the underlying factors contributing to it and its relationship with the gender of newborns.
Materials and Methods: A comparative cross-sectional study was conducted on 90 post- natal mothers presenting at RMU Allied Hospitals, Rawalpindi. The data collection tool was a Performa-based questionnaire, including questions to determine the possible causative factors and EPDS question to evaluate maternal mental health. One to one interview was conducted for data collection. Association of PPD with various socio-demographic and gender factors was then sought through statistical analysis using SPSS version 25.
Results; The prevalence of PPD was 69%, with moderate depression being most common. Mothers who gave birth to female children had significantly higher rates of PPD, highlighting the impact of gender bias. Additionally, cesarean sections, middle-class socioeconomic status and being in young adult age group were found as additional risk factors for PPD.
Conclusion: The findings highlight the significant impact of gender bias on the occurrence of postpartum depression, especially among mothers with female children, who are at heightened risk. To enhance maternal mental health and improve mothers' overall quality of life, it is crucial to address gender bias along with other contributing factors through focused interventions. Continued research is necessary to confirm these results and to design effective strategies for prevention and management.

I denne artikkelen utforsker vi materialitet som felles omdreiningspunkt for vår forskning. Gjennom en postkvalitativ tilnærming med fragmentfortellinger fra egne forskerliv søker vi i artikkelen å «sy sammen et lappeteppe» av våre tenkninger og gjøringer knyttet til materialitet og betydninger det kan ha for vår forskning knyttet til barn. Artikkelen er en form for kartlegging og avmerking av elementer som skiller seg ut som viktige i vår forskning i et utstrakt materialitetslandskap. Teoretisk beveger vi oss i posthumane og nymaterielle landskaper med koblinger til poststrukturalisme, prosessfilosofi, antropologi, kunst og estetikk. Med agentiske kutt som visuelle og språklige hendelser fra vår forskning søker vi å skape innsyn og samtidig folde ut noe av kompleksiteten i materialitetsforskning. Artikkelen er også en eksperimentering med artikkelformatet i akademisk kontekst.

Authors: Dai Jiansong , Xu Xiaofeng , Chen Gangrui , Lv Jiale , Xiao Yang 
Published: January 2025

Objective
Sleep is the most efficient means of recovery for athletes, guaranteeing optimal athletic performance. However, many athletes frequently experience sleep problems. Our study aims to describe the sleep-wake patterns of fencing athletes and determine whether factors, such as sex, competitive level and training schedules, could affect the sleep-wake rhythm.

Methods
Sleep data from 23 fencing athletes were collected using the Huawei Band 6, monitoring key sleep parameters such as bedtime, wake time, duration of deep and light sleep, wake periods, REM sleep duration, and nap duration. During this period, athletes were required to wear the band continuously for 24 hours daily, except bathing, charging, and competition times.

Results
Athletes averaged 7.97 hours of sleep per night, with significant differences observed in wake time (p = 0.015) and midpoint of sleep (p = 0.048) between high-level and low-level athletes, as well as a higher frequency of naps among high-level (χ2 = 11.97, p = 0.001) and female (χ2 = 3.88, p = 0.049) athletes. Nap duration was negatively correlated with night sleep duration (r = − 0.270, p < 0.001). Athletes were observed for changes in sleep-wake patterns from Monday to Sunday. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, when there was no morning training, the athletes’ wake-up time and the midpoint of sleep were shifted significantly backward, and there were significant differences in sleep parameters between training days and rest days.

Conclusion
The sleep patterns of athletes differ according to level and gender. The sleep-wake patterns of athletes are influenced by training schedules, indicating the presence of sleep rhythm disruption.
The wildest dreams and the Asian gaze

Published: July 2023

This commentary essay is about a personal and professional reflection of the article written by Came et al. (2021)“Smashing the patriarchy to address gender health inequities”. While learning about how Western feminism impacted on women’s health advancement locally and internationally, the original article made my mind wander.with curiosity over a few interrelated gender health topics. Those topics are namely Asian health in Aotearoa New Zealand, Asian women’s health, feminism in Asia and social determinants of health. The article also made me realise that I knew only very little about my own roots, and womanhood studies in Asia. I dont even know how to say " feminism" in my first language.
THE EFFECT OF MENTHA PIPERIT A (L.) EXTRACT MIXED DIET ON PLASMA TOTAL PROTEIN FRACTIONS AND DISEASE RESISTANCE AGAINST EDWARDSIELLA TARDA IN ROHU (LABEO ROHITA HAM.) FINGERLINGS
Authors: Thuy Nguyen Thi Thanh 
Published: July 2023

Rohu fingerlings (Labeo rohita Ham.) were randomly divided into four groups. The control group was fed on normal diet and three treated groups namely T1, T2 and T3 groups were fed on plant Mentha piperita (L.) extract mixed diet with varying doses viz. 10, 20 and 30 mill/100 g feed, separately. After three weeks of feeding, blood was collected from all the groups for testing of plasma total protein, albumin (A), globulin (G) levels and AIG ratio. Then, all the fish groups were immunized intraperitoneally (i.p.) with 1% formalin-killed E. tarda suspension (106 cells/fish). The laboratory analysis was done weekly after immunization. Then all the groups were challenged (i.p) with live E. tarda suspension for testing of disease resistance against the bacteria. The results indicated that plasma total protein and globulin levels significantly (P < 0.05) increased in the plant extract treated groups compared to that in the control group. After immunization and one week of challenge, the plasma total protein and globulin levels significantly ( P < 0.05) increased in both the control and treated groups. However, there was no significant (P > 0.05) difference in AIG ratio among groups during the experiments. The plant extract mixed diet enhanced disease resistance against E. tarda infection in the plant extract treated fish.

27th May 2004, in Giang Trom district, Ben Tre province, Vietnam, 5 victims (3 died) were poisoned after eating rice soup cooked with freshwater puflers, which were caught from private pond. Before this accident, local people had believed that only marine puffer may be toxic, while freshwater puffer can be eaten safety. The studied results indicated that two species of freshwater puffer, Green-spotted puffer Chelonodon nigroviridis and Red-eyes puffer Carinotetraodon lorteri were collected from Ben Tre and Tra Vinh provinces in 2005 are dangerous for human consumption. The toxin was variety among all of body parts with highest toxicity in liver and reproductive organs (ovary or testis). They are small (5 - 10 g) and may be often eaten without removing hepatopancrea, so it is more potential poisoning Toxin in these two species was identified as tetrodotoxin, the same as Blue-ringed octopus, Horseshoe crab ...
SUPPLEMENTAL STUDY ON ICHTHYOFAUNA OF CORAL REEF FISHES IN NHA TRANG BAY MARINE PROTECTED AREA, KHANH HOA PROVICE
Authors: Quan Nguyen Van 
Published: July 2023

Based on the original _ materials collected at the field surveys carried out in the years of 2002-2006 at Nha Trang Bay marine protected area (MPA), Khanh Hoa province, there were 420 species, 198 genera and 77 families have been recorded in the coral reef fish fauna . 23 species were recognized as new records for Vietnam Marine Fish Checklist and 128 species were added in the list of coral reef fishes in Nha Trang Bay that contributed by previous authors. Most of the coral reef fishes occur in the vicinity of the MP A ar,e rated as small size (TL< I Scm, occupying 80% of the total individual count numbers: families Pomacentridae, Chaetodontidae, Apogonidae and Labridae. There are 18 common species found in all the s u rvey transects by the frequency catch of 80- I 00%. The individual density of the cor a l reef fish communities in the core zone was rather higher than that of the buffer zone: 831 individual/500m: and I 21 individual/500m 2 , respectively . At the same survey sites, the individual density is higher at the reef flat to compare with that of the reef slope with estmated value of 40%. However, commerical high value families such as Scaridae, Lutjanidae, Caesionidae, Lethrinidae, Serranidae distribute mainly at the reef slope . For maintenace of the sustainable natural resources, it is suggested that instututional conservation strategy should be prioritized, reduction of- the commercial fishing practices, and diverification of the ecological tourism activities. . . Thus these tasks will help to improve the livelihoods of the local communities living around the MPA.

Published: July 2023

A positive assessment of self-esteem and self-efficacy will motivate, especially female students, to care about their body image, reduce the risk of eating disorders, and in turn aspire them to become healthy role-models. This study aimed to examine the influence of those variables on becoming healthy role-models. A cross-sectional study was conducted in 2021 to 189 female students at the Faculty of Medicine, Tanjungpura University. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test and multivariate logistic regression test. Self-esteem (p: 0.003; OR: 2.638) and self-efficacy (p: 0.000; OR: 5.752) had a significant relationship with body image, and body image had a significant relationship with the risk of eating disorders (p: 0.000; OR: 4,609). Regression analysis showed that self-esteem (p: 0.016) and self-efficacy (p: 0.024) are the variables that affected becoming of a role model. Moreover, it is found that self-efficacy had an indirect influence on eating disorders according to the body image with a coefficient of 2.45. Good self-acceptance (high self-esteem and self-efficacy) through positive self-compassion likely reduces the risk of eating disorders and improves the body image. The combination of these aspects will ultimately increase the students’ motivation to promote healthy behavior to others and thus become healthy role-models.

IMPLEMENTASI DAKWAH RASULULLAH DALAM ERA MILENIUM
Authors: Arif Mohammad 
Published: July 2023

Humans as subjects and objects of law cannot live and carry out lawsuits. But instead, humans are bound by a rule that applies in the midst of their lives as citizens in their environment. For this reason, awareness is needed in understanding and obey the rules that apply. But social and cultural changes that occur continuously sometimes bring hope as well as concern. Hope, because change will bring better conditions, and fears will come if the future is worse than the present. The development of science and technology that should have raised hopes and reduced concerns are now also marked by the confrontation of scientists and scholars, namely the separation between the world and the hereafter, making it difficult to control human attitudes as the excesses of the emptiness of the soul. Helping the general public requires the ability to wage jihad in the field of da'wah. The insistent pressure in the Prophet's preaching in Mecca then inspired the Prophet to emigrate and temporarily exit from Mecca to Medina. The original name of the city was Yastrib. This Prophet's strategy turned out to be very telling and presented a golden journey in the history of da'wah and the formation of society. With all the intelligence and attitudes of the Prophet Muhammad, when in Medina not only can spread in the sense of tabli but more than that the Prophet Together the community can build a model of a modern social system even too modern in its time.

Tożsamość śląska w systemie pojęciowym budzicieli polskiego życia narodowego na Śląsku Cieszyńskim w XIX wieku
Authors: Greń Zbigniew 
Published: July 2023

W artykule podjęto próbę określenia miejsca śląskiej tożsamości regionalnej w systemie pojęciowym grupy mieszkańców Śląska Cieszyńskiego, którzy wybrali polonocentryczną interpretację śląskiej rzeczywistości. Chodzi o tzw. budzicieli polskości pierwszej generacji, z takimi przedstawicielami jak Paweł Stalmach, Andrzej Cinciała, Andrzej Kotula itp. To właśnie ta generacja jako pierwsza musiała zmierzyć się z problemem konkurencji między różnymi propozycjami etnicznymi w tym pogranicznym regionie, a także określić własne postrzeganie tożsamości etnicznej. Celem analizy jest określenie procesu poszukiwania tożsamości grupowej uczestników polskiego ruchu narodowego na Śląsku Cieszyńskim, w warunkach zróżnicowanej oferty narodowościowej pogranicza, na podstawie tego, jak został on oddany przez nich samych w materiałach o osobistym charakterze (pamiętnikach, korespondencji).
