Objective: To determine the accuracy and false negative rate of axillary ultrasound compared to sentinel nodebiopsy.Method: The retrospective study was conducted at the Aga Khan University Hospital, Karachi, from February 1 toMarch 31, 2021, and comprised data of breast cancer patients who had undergone neo-adjuvant chemotherapyfollowed by axillary lymph node dissection or axillary disease diagnosed using lymph node biopsy or sentinel lymphnode biopsy between January 1, 2016, and December 30, 2020. After receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy, axillaryultrasound findings were compared with histopathology of lymph nodes. Data was analysed using SPSS 22.Results: Of the 155 patients evaluated, 104(67.1%) were diagnosed with negative axillary lymph nodes and51(32.9%) were diagnosed with positive axillary lymph nodes post-chemotherapy. The overall mean age was51.13±1.3 years. When histopathology results were compared with those of axillary ultrasound, 36 cases turned outto be true positive, while 23(%) were false negative, yielding a positive predictive value of 75% and negativepredictive value of 65%. Axillary ultrasound had 75% accuracy, false negative rate 30%, sensitivity 61% andspecificity 84.4%.Conclusion: Axillary ultrasound was found to be fairly useful, but not completely reliable, in identifying positivelymph nodes,

Published: February 2022

Research in surgery has led to significant advances over the last century in terms of how medicine is practised in and outside the operating rooms today. Surgical research in the developed countries is responsible for most of this advancement, but it is often inapplicable in resourcelimited settings in the developing world. Lower- and middle-income countries are in a unique position to take this work further, but they are limited by certain barriers. These barriers could broadly be classified under social andcultural, infrastructure, financial, ethical, and personal categories. These barriers are often not fully realised, but can potentially be addressed with concerted efforts to continue the advancement of medicine for everyone.

Recidivism amongst children in conflict with the law who have undergone anger management diversion programme: The case of NICRO in Limpopo Province
Authors: Mogano Thapelo Isaac , Rapholo Selelo Frank , Ramphabana Livhuwani Bethuel 
Published: February 2022

Studies show that there is a high rate of recidivism amongst children in conflict with the law who have attended anger management programme. Anger management is now a major issue affecting children and youth across societies including South Africa. Poor management of anger often leads children and youth into committing criminal offences. There are no enough studies which rigorously explored possible reasons for children’s reoffending behaviours after attending anger management programme. This qualitative study sought to describe factors which lead children to reoffend after attending anger management diversion programme at NICRO (National Institute of Crime and Re-Integration of Offenders) in Limpopo Province. To pursue the aim of this study, behaviour modification approach was followed. A descriptive multiple case-study design was used to purposefully and conviniently select three social workers who facilitated the programme and ten youths who attended the programme while they were still under the age of 18 years. Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data which was analysed thematically with the assistance of the Nvivo software. Findings revealed lack of family support, peer influence and substance use , poor educational competencies and lack of understanding of the programme as factors leading to recidivism amongst children in conflict with the law. It is therefore recommended that the re-intergration process of children who completed the programme incorporate serious follow up sessions.

Creative Writing for Foreign Learners of English: some opening arguments
Authors: Kelen Christopher 
Published: February 2022

In the native-speaking context, broadly there are two types of reason for teaching creative writing: therapeutic reasons and canonic reasons. You teach creative writing because the process of writing is good for students, good for us all. Or you teach creative writing because literature comes from somewhere: someone had to write it. And - if there’s to be any more - someone has to be equipped to write it. The much-argued presumption in this later case being that creative writing is teachable. The point of this paper is to make an argument for an explicit pedagogy in creative writing - in the writing of imaginative literature - directed at the English as a foreign language classroom. The argument is made on the basis of efficacy. Not for fun, not for self-development, not because canonic or even good works might be produced along the way, not for inter-cultural understanding in its own right. Not for any of these justifiable ends in themselves. But because creative writing is a best way into the forms of proficiency which languages demand of their non-native users. It’s a best way in because those ends coincide with the language learner’s most readily generalised goals.

El-Shadday dan Korelasinya dengan Dewi Karema dalam Mitologi Penciptaan Manusia Di Suku Minahasa
Authors: Panjaitan Firman , Wantalangi Regen 
Published: February 2022

Understanding of God is very important in religious life, especially when religion is confronted with culture. There needs to be contextualization efforts in understanding God comprehensively so that it can be accepted from a religious as well as cultural perspective. Through this, God is not only understood correctly Biblically, but at the same time is understood based on the context of the local community. This article aims to find the understanding of God in the Minahasa context by contextualizing the understanding of God in the Bible with the local context. This article uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach for research into the Minahasa cultural context coupled with a critical interpretation of biblical research, especially Genesis 1:26-28. The results of the study prove that God, known as El Shadday in the Bible understanding can be contextualized with the understanding of Dewi Karema, so that God in the form of El Shadday understood by Minahasa culture is not just a masculine God but also a feminine God. Thus the God of El Shadday in the Bible is not a foreign God in the life of the Minahasa tribe, but a God who is very close to human life, especially in the figure of Dewi Karema.
Pemahaman tentang Allah menjadi hal yang sangat utama dalam kehidupan beragama, terutama ketika agama diperhadapkan pada budaya. Perlu ada upaya kontekstualisasi dalam memahami Allah secara komprehensif sehingga dapat diterima dalam perspektif agama sekaligus budaya. Melalui hal ini, Allah tidak hanya dipahami dengan benar secara Alkitabiah, tetapi sekaligus dipahami berdasarkan konteks masyarakat setempat. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menemukan pemahaman Allah dalam konteks Minahasa dengan cara mengkontekstualisasikan pemahaman tentang Allah dalam Alkitab dengan konteks setempat. Artikel ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi literatur bagi penelitian terhadap konteks budaya Minahasa ditambah dengan tafsir kritis terhadap penelitian Alkitab, khususnya Kejadian 1:26-28. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Allah, yang dikenal dengan nama El Shadday dalam pemahaman Alkitab dapat dikontekstualisasikan dengan pemahaman Dewi Karema, sehingga Allah dalam wujud El Shadday yang dipahami oleh budaya Minahasa bukan sekadar Allah yang maskulin melainkan Allah dalam wujud feminine, sehingga kehidupan El Shadday sangat dekat dengan kehidupan manusia.
Dynamics of thunderstorms
Authors: Mull S. , RAO Y.P. 
Published: February 2022

It has generally been believed that the pressure rise is the only type or pressure change which can occur with the passage of a thunderstorm and that this rise is invariably accompanied with a fall in Dry Bulb temperature. Evidence has been brought forth to show that this is not always the case and that in addition to instances of thunderstorms with pressure rise, there are also cases of thunderstorms accompanied by no pressure change or even a pressure fall. It is also observed that these pressure variations are not always associated with a temperature fall, but are in some cases, also accompanied by arise in Dry Bulb or no appreciable change in Dry Bulb.
A review of the present explanations of pressure changes in thunderstorms is given and it is shown how these are inadequate to explain all the observed facts.
Some Interesting facts about National Animal of Pakistan
Authors: Fatima Naz 
Published: February 2022

“Markhor” (Capra falconeri) name is derived from two Persian and Pashto words, “Mar” means ‘snake’ and “khor” means ‘eater’. It is a large wild goar, habitant of mountains and high altitude rainy forest of Western and Central Asia. It is national animal of Pakistan and also termed as the ‘screw-horned goat’ or ‘Shakhawat’. The male Markhor are usually loners while females live in herds of 9. They are diurnal and excellent climbers and jump on rocky, mountains. After chewing the cud, they form a foamy substance in their drool which is used by the native people for extracting poison of the snake.
Male Markhor lives in forest during the hot weathers, while female Markhor climb the highest peaks. However, they descend down to the area of relatively lower altitudes in cold season to avoid the extreme weather conditions. They forage for around 8-12 hours a day and then rest during the mid-day to chew their cud. Markhor are normally kept with other 83:wild goats. They are captivated in zoo and wildlife parks for conservation purpose. Markhor have an average life span of 10 to 13 years.
They are susceptible of being eaten, when threatened, they give an alarm that is similar to that of a domestic goat bleating. It is listed as an endangered species on ‘The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List since 2015. During the last fifteen years (2006-2020), hundreds of markhor have been killed in Chitral gol national park (CGNP), Pakistan [1]. Direct predation and disturbance of natural environment to these animals have compromised conservation of markhor in Pakistan.

The Emergence and Role of Client Perspectives in and on Cancer Treatment
Authors: Forchhammer Hysse Birgitte 
Published: February 2022

This paper is divided into two parts: in part one I give some examples from a study of how patient or client perspectives on treatment and life with cancer are “discovered”, addressed, included and shaped within cancer research and treatment after World War 2. In this first part I draw on analyses from my Ph.D. thesis about the concept of quality of life and psycho-social research on cancer, in which I focused on the development and interrelationships between (1) welfare state forms of governance, (2) the practice of cancer treatment and its relation to research, and (3) client’s relations to treatment regimes and a life with cancer. I argue that the client’s perspective is represented in medical practice in many different, and often problematic, ways. A core problem is that this perspective is often represented from a third-person point of view, not from a direct first-person point of view. I find a number of reasons for this. The lack of first-person involvement is not isolated to medical practice but is also obvious in psycho-social practice that evolves in the relation to medical treatment and research in the last part of this century. The conflict around this is reflected in psychological theories about illness and disease that are formulated in this period. In the second part of the article I discuss the directions in which psychological theory has to develop in order to contribute to the recognition and involvement of first-person perspectives in medical treatment and research. The aim of this discussion is not limited to understanding how we as subjects handle everyday life with biological changes of bodily function.
