Called to the missional frontline in a turbulent world: The role of theological education
Authors: Andrew Daniel N. 
Published: January 2025

Background: The Apostolic Faith Mission International (AFMI) conference had as its theme called to the missional frontline in a turbulent world, but the topic of theological education never made it to the main agenda. The article engages with theological education in the context of a Western hegemonic epistemology that dominates its provision in the Global South and in the African context.Objectives: The main objective of the study is to investigate how theological education provision was impacted by the Western paradigm in the AFMI and propose certain points of consideration that will assist them in having a relevant humanising pneumatological theological education for their missional role today.Method: The study follows a comparative literature approach and seeks through it to uncover the roots of theological education in the AFMI and how it can assist in fulfilling their missional mandate.Results: The study finds that the AFMI is an African Pentecostal Church that exists in all six continents and has members all over the world that is prepared in those contexts to fulfil their missional mandate. A humanising pneumatological theological education is decolonial and intersectional and contributes to missional transformation in those contexts.Conclusion: The AFMI as an African Pentecostal church exists in the diaspora and can make a meaningful impact in missional and societal transformation; theological education has a role to play as part of their faith formation.Contribution: The article fits well within the scope of AJOPS that aims to give an academic space for Pentecostal voices from the Global South, and the article contributes to the ongoing conversation about the role of theological education in fulfilment of the missional mandate.
Measure comparison problems for dilations of convex bodies

Published: January 2025

AbstractWe study a version of the Busemann-Petty problem for
$\log $
-concave measures with an additional assumption on the dilates of convex, symmetric bodies. One of our main tools is an analog of the classical large deviation principle applied to
$\log $
-concave measures, depending on the norm of a convex body. We hope this will be of independent interest.
Strategic communication for youth awareness during a Covid-19 outbreak: when the target becomes the creator
Authors: Oliveira Hernâni Zão , Lima Helena 
Published: January 2025

During Covid-19 pandemic, a communication campaign promoted by a municipality in Portugal was unable to modify the risk behaviour of teenagers in schools. With the increase in safety rules, the exhaustion of teenagers gave way to revolt and disrespect - students started to remain at the school gates without masks and sharing cigarettes among themselves. The “Every Day Counts” campaign was developed to fix the extremely top-down orientation of the first campaign and to increase the impact of target-oriented communication via local government. Based on a Manifesto to other schools, the students with deviant behaviours were invited to co-create this new initiative. Three complementary products were developed: an animated film; a set of physical billboards distributed throughout the city; and a collection of bracelets that the participants used to promote the campaign. The materials were shared by 80 schools and 7 of them asked for help to replicate the same participatory methodology with their students. Furthermore, reports of deviant behaviour at the municipal school became residual.
Narrativas en la historia de la misión
Authors: May May Ezer Roboam 
Published: January 2025

El libro Constructing Mission History, conformado por una introducción, siete capítulos, conclusión y epílogo busca inscribirse en el campo de estudio denominado World Christianity, el cual, procede de círculos académicos angloparlantes de teólogos historiadores, quienes se interesan por el estudio de las misiones (Mission Studies) y la historia de la iglesia (Church History). La premisa de este campo de estudio es el reconocimiento de que el cristianismo ya no es un fenómeno Occidental debido a su desplazamiento demográfico y teológico hacia el Sur Global. Por lo tanto, la mirada analítica debe trasladarse fuera de Occidente. En este sentido, Skreslet considera imprescindible proponer un análisis en el que los misioneros no sean los únicos protagonistas, sino también las agencias indígenas, con el objetivo de entender la historia de la misión como un proceso de actos interpretativos que se encuentra más allá del control de los misioneros y sus respectivas Juntas y Sociedades.

Published: January 2025

Scanning electron microscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to analyze the oxide film developed on Alloy 690 after being immersed in simulated pressurized water reactor primary water with different dissolved hydrogen (DH) contents. The DH changes the morphology, composition, and thickness of the oxide film on Alloy 690. As the DH level increases, the overall oxide film thickness determined by the O content by XPS to half of its original value decreases, and the thickness of the outer oxide film decreases, with the intersection of Cr content and Fe content lines within the oxide film as the inner/outer layer interface. The thickness of the inner oxide layer at DH = 30 cm3/kg H2O is similar to that at DH = 50 cm3/kg H2O but lower than that at DH = 18 cm3/kg H2O. The Cr content and Cr/(Fe + Ni) ratio in the inner oxide layer increases with the DH level. DH would affect both the chemical compositions of the inner and outer layers and their interface, contributing to the observed oxide film properties from XPS results.

Published: January 2025

Abstract. Biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) are emitted in large quantities from the terrestrial biosphere and play a significant role in atmospheric gaseous and aerosol compositions. Secondary organic aerosols (SOAs) resulting from BVOC oxidation affect the radiation budget both directly, through the scattering and absorption of sunlight, and indirectly, by modifying cloud properties. Human activities have extensively altered natural vegetation cover, primarily by converting forests into agricultural land. In this work, a global atmospheric chemistry–climate model, coupled with a dynamic global vegetation model, was employed to study the impacts of perturbing the biosphere through human-induced land use change, thereby exploring changes in BVOC emissions and the atmospheric aerosol burden. A land use scheme was implemented to constrain tree plant functional type (PFT) cover based on land transformation fraction maps from the year 2015. Two scenarios were evaluated: (1) one comparing present-day land cover, which includes areas deforested for crops and grazing land, with potential natural vegetation (PNV) cover simulated by the model, and (2) an extreme reforestation scenario in which present-day grazing land is restored to natural vegetation levels. We find that, compared to the PNV scenario, present-day deforestation results in a 26 % reduction in BVOC emissions, which decreases the global biogenic SOA (bSOA) burden by 0.16 Tg (a decrease of 29 %), while the total organic aerosol (OA) burden decreases by 0.17 Tg (a reduction of 9 %). On the other hand, the extreme reforestation scenario, compared to present-day land cover, suggests an increase in BVOC emissions of 22 %, which increases the bSOA burden by 0.11 Tg and the total OA burden by 0.12 Tg – increases of 26 % and 6 %, respectively. For the present-day deforestation scenario, we estimate a positive total radiative effect (aerosol + cloud) of 60.4 mW m−2 (warming) relative to the natural vegetation scenario, while for the extreme reforestation scenario, we report a negative (cooling) effect of 38.2 mW m−2 relative to current vegetation cover.

Published: January 2025

There is favourable evidence in speech therapy for the rehabilitation of vocal cord paralysis. Nonetheless, contemporaneous studies that apply reinforced falsetto were not found. The aim of this study is to determine the results of speech therapy using reinforced falsetto for complete glottic closure in patients diagnosed with unilateral vocal cord paralysis, who were treated at the Laboratory of Voice at the ‘Universidad del Desarrollo’ in Chile between 2015 and 2023. A descriptive, observational and retrospective study was performed on 10 adult participants. Before therapy, dysphonia was severe in 90% of the participants, whilst moderate in the remaining 10%. Incomplete glottic closure was observed in 100% of the participants. After the therapy, dysphonia was diagnosed as being mild in 60% of the cases, and normal in the remaining 40% of participants. All the participants recovered their glottic closure. Significant differences were observed pre-intervention and post-intervention in: fundamental frequency (p .028); sound intensity (p .006); harmonics (p .000); maximum phonation time (p .000); glottic closure (p .002); and dysphonia severity (p .004). In conclusion, the reinforced falsetto technique was favourable for the glottic closure in the sample of participants studied. Further, there was clinical improvement in all the analysed variables. Speech therapy using reinforced falsetto could therefore be useful for the rehabilitation of unilateral vocal cord paralysis. It is suggested that extra research is performed, including a representative sample, in order to generalise the results and make them applicable to the general population.

The relationship between Training Practices and HRM
Authors: Abderrahmane Khouloud 
Published: January 2025

Training is one of the most important tools that organizations can use to increase the skills and knowledge of their employees, which in turn can lead to improved productivity and performance. However, the effectiveness of training is not solely dependent on the quality of the training itself. It is also influenced by the way in which training is integrated with other human resource management (HRM) activities.
This article examines the relationship between training practices and other HRM activities in the context of SONATRACH, a leading oil and gas company in Algeria. The study uses a sample of 310 managerial staff to assess the extent to which training is aligned with other HRM activities, such as job analysis, recruitment, compensation, skills development and assessment, and labor relations.
The findings of the study suggest that there is a strong relationship between training practices and other HRM activities in SONATRACH. This suggests that training is not simply a stand-alone activity, but rather an integral part of a broader HRM strategy.

Organisational support plays a critical role in the execution of work roles and job attitudes of employees. Resources and support should be aligned with the needs and expectations of employees. This study investigated the role of perceived organisational support (POS) on flourishing and turnover intention of selected organisations in Namibia. Organisational support is instrumental in fostering health and wellbeing of employees. Organisational support reduces employee’s intention to leave but is at times misdirected or perceived as cumbersome. Applying quantitative research, a total of n=446 employees were sampled, making use of a questionnaire (survey) to collect data. A unique negative relationship was found between perceived organisational support and flourishing. Perceived organisational support reported a positive relationship with turnover intention. This study recommends open and healthy communication platforms between employees and management; enhance the match between support provided and the needs of employees; provide training related to interpersonal relations, and emotional intelligence. Team-building sessions and conflict resolution training may be offered. This study adds to the understanding of perceived organisational support, flourishing and turnover intention within the Namibian workplace.
Testosterone Replacement Therapy Is Associated With Increased Incidence Rate of Vertebral Fractures: A Matched Retrospective Analysis
Authors: Singh Manjot , Daher Mohammad , Diebo Bassel G. , Daniels Alan H. , Arcand Michel A. 
Published: January 2025

Background:
Whether testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) can mitigate the risk of vertebral fractures has not been well-studied.

Methods:
PearlDiver was queried to identify patients with and without the history of TRT. Groups were matched 1:1 by demographic variables and 2-year vertebral fracture incidence rate was compared. Multivariate logistic regression was done to identify independent predictors of vertebral fractures.

Results:
Among 77,491 matched patients, mean age was 54.7 ± 10.4 years, 74.3% were males, and mean Charlson Comorbidity Index was 0.17 ± 0.54. Testosterone replacement therapy patients had higher rates of vertebral fractures (0.31% vs 0.04%, P < 0.001), and these rates were observed to increase with age. Both men alone (0.36% vs 0.04%, P < 0.001) and women alone (0.16% vs 0.03%, P < 0.001) on TRT had higher rates of vertebral fractures. Multivariate analysis revealed that TRT (OR = 7.7, 95%CI = 5.1-11.7, P < 0.001), as well as chronic kidney disease (OR = 1.4, 95%CI = 1.1-2.0, P = 0.026), alcohol abuse (OR = 2.5, 95%CI = 1.8-3.5, P < 0.001), and diphosphonate use (OR = 2.2, 95%CI = 1.4-3.5, P < 0.001), increased vertebral fracture rates.

Conclusions:
Exogenous testosterone use was associated with increased 2-year incidence of vertebral fractures. Although a causal relationship could not be established, our findings highlight the need to use screening measures, such as dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan, to identify patients at risk of vertebral fractures.
