La quantification internationale au concret
Authors: Brissaud Constantin 
Published: September 2022

Cette contribution éclaire la différenciation de l’ordre sanitaire international par l’analyse des réunions visant à refondre la nomenclature des comptes de santé établie par l’OCDE entre 2017 et 2019. Là où la sociologie politique de l’international privilégie les entretiens ou l’analyse d’archives, l’article combine ces méthodes avec l’observation des négociations impliquant États et organisations internationales sanitaires pour dévoiler la dimension fondamentalement agonistique de l’ordre sanitaire international. Il montre ainsi que les luttes entre organisations pour obtenir les fonds des États prennent, en réunion, la forme de luttes menées par les délégués pour imposer les indicateurs historiquement privilégiés par leur organisation d’appartenance. Au plan méthodologique, l’article plaide donc pour la combinaison plus systématique de l’observation aux autres méthodes de la « boîte à outils » du sociologue de l’international. Au plan théorique, il dévoile l’asymétrie de la structure de l’ordre sanitaire international et propose une typologie des stratégies à disposition des acteurs pour l’aménager.

The area of the Classical Karst is roughly defined by a triangle with Ljubljana, Trieste and Rijeka as its vertices. This is the area where the first scientific studies of karst phenomena were conducted. Two sub-regions that particularly attracted researchers are presented. Kras/Carso plateau with the Škocjan caves and the underground course of the Reka river. The groundwater flow of Reka-Timavo is characterised by high recharge variability of allogenic inflow of Reka River and flow restrictions in the upper part of subterranean flow, which control regional backfloodings observed in cave systems. The recharge area of Ljubljanica Springs is known for a cascading series of poljes in intermediate cave systems. The area has been in focus of hydrological studies for over a century, but many phenomena have been resolved in the last decade based on results of continuous autonomous monitoring in the last decade.

Key words: Classical Karst, Kras, Škocjanske Jame, Reka-Timavo system, Ljubljanica Recharge Area, Polje.

IZVLEČEK

Območje Klasičnega krasa v grobem objema trikotnik z Ljubljano, Reko in Trstom v ogliščih. Tu se je začelo znanstveno proučevanje krasa. Dve kraški območji sta tu še posebej pritegnili pozornost raziskovalcev. Prvo je planota Kras s Škocjanskimi jamami in podzemnim tokom Reke med Škocjanskimi jamami in izviri Timave. Ta tok močno zaznamuje velika spremenljivost dotoka reke Reke in lokalne zožitve v vodonosniku, ki povzročajo regionalno poplavljanje, kot ga beležimo v jamah. Drugo je območje kraške Ljubljanice z značilnim nizom dinarskih kraških polj in jamskih sistemov, ki polja hidrološko povezujejo. Območje je že več kot stoletje predmet številnih raziskav, zvezno spremljanje parametrov toka v kraških jamah v zadnjih desetih letih, pa je omogočilo nova spoznanja o lastnostih in mehanizmih pretakanja vode v celotnem sistemu.

Ključne besede: Klasični kras, Kras, Škocjanske jame, podzemni tok reke Reke, kraško zaledje izvirov Ljubljanice, polje.
Evaluation of Usage and User Satisfaction of Undergraduates on Library Resources and Services: A Study based on the Library of the Institute of Indigenous Medicine (IIM), University of Colombo
Authors: Gamage C. K. 
Published: September 2022

The study focused on usage and user satisfaction of undergraduates of the library facilities provided by the library of the Institute of Indigenous Medicine, University of Colombo. The objective of the study was to determine the users’ satisfaction with information resources and services provided by the library. Also, it was aimed to investigate the purpose and frequency of library visits by undergraduates, to examine frequently used information resources and services, to find out undergraduates’ perceptions regarding future developments of the library and to provide suitable recommendations to meet undergraduates’ unmet needs. A structured questionnaire was used to collect data. Among the total students of Level 1 to Level 5, 20% of students from two Departments of Ayurveda and Unani were randomly selected as the sample. A number of 202 questionnaires were distributed and 154 students responded. The achieved response rate was 75.7%. Data were analyzed using SPSS and Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to analyze the Likert scale responses. The study revealed that the majority of undergraduates, 77.3% of the Institute of the Indigenous Medicine were satisfied with the resources and services provided by the library and they had a positive perception of the library. The study especially revealed that existing electronic resources in the library were inadequate. Hence, steps should be taken to further the development of e-resources that effectively meet the needs of undergraduates. Improving the physical facilities and reading environment of the IIM library deserves high priority. Conducting more user awareness programs is a necessity. This should be apart from the orientation programs. Implementing marketing strategies on library resources and services needs to be raised.

Published: September 2022

The influence of anthropogenic activities on a freshwater ecosystem was investigated by sampling for physicochemical parameters, heavy metals and benthic invertebrates of Oghan River in Ora Community, Ovia South-West Local Government Area of Edo State, Nigeria. Samples were collected monthly for a ten months period across three stations between 09:00 and 12:00 hrs on each sampling day for laboratory analysis following standard procedure. No significant variation (P > 0.05) was observed between the parameters, although heavy metals in sediments were above the WHO recommended limit for freshwater ecosystems. For benthic organisms, about 386 individuals belonging to 23 taxa, 11 families and 6 orders were recorded. Among the orders, the most dominant were Diptera (44.94%), Odonata (28.31%), Ephemeroptera (13.77%) while the least was Diplogasterida (0.26%). The families were dominated by Chironomidae (32.47%), Baetidae (13.77%) and Libellulidae (12.73%). Species diversity (2.677) and richness (4.002) were highest in station 1 and lowest in stations 2 (2.357) and 3 (2.745) while species evenness was highest in station 3 (0.791) and lowest in station 1 (0.6924). The elevated levels of heavy metals and the decrease in sensitive benthic taxa observed in the river is an indication that anthropogenic activities could be impacting the water quality and benthic invertebrate community of the river.

Background: Fat accumulation around the abdomen is an important consideration in obesity studies and management. Generalized obesity indices alone without considering abdominal obesity are not sufficient in the study and treatment of obesity and the related escalating cases of preventable non-communicable diseases globally.
Objective: This study assessed the relationship between abdominal obesity and some selected non-communicable diseases such as generalized obesity, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes among adults in Calabar Metropolis.
Materials and methods: A multistage sampling technique was used to select 500 participants (20-70 years). The cross-sectional descriptive study adapted the WHO STEPwise questionnaire for surveillance of non-communicable diseases. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics including frequency, percentages, chi-square, correlation, and logistic regression; significant differences were established at p<0.05.
Results: 51% of the participants were single while 44.8% were married. It was found that 27.8% and 56.9% of males, as well as 31.1% and 41.1% of females who were diagnosed with hypertension, had high and very high waist circumferences respectively compared to fewer males and females who were undiagnosed with hypertension. There was a correlation between waist circumference and diastolic blood pressure (r= -0.102, p=0.022) as well as with random blood glucose (r=0.123, p=0.006). The males had higher odds to develop hypertension (OR=2.754; CI=1.776-4.270) and fewer odds to develop abdominal obesity compared to the females.
Conclusion: There were strong associations between hypertension, type 2 diabetes, generalized obesity, and waist circumference of the participants. More individuals with high waist circumferences had hypertension. Men were less likely to have abdominal obesity in relation to high blood pressure compared to women. There should be appropriate interventions for the individuals who were already diagnosed with the various NCDs while those at risk of developing the disorders should be identified within the population for proper counseling.

Authors: Abubakar Salisu Maiwada , Shehu Amina 
Published: September 2022

Background: The body composition of Women of Reproductive Age (WRA) has been related to maternal and child health. Environmental and socioeconomic factors related to urban or rural settings may have an impact on the body composition of WRA. there is limited data that explore and document the differences in body composition of rural- and urban-dwelling WRA in Kano State.
Objective: The present study aimed to assess and compare the body composition of WRA in urban and rural settings in Kano State.
Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive community-based study was conducted. Participants (240 WRA aged 14-49 years) were randomly recruited from 8 Local Government Areas (4 rural and 4 urban LGAs). A structured questionnaire was used to collect information on socio-demographic characteristics. A body composition monitor was used to measure body mass index (BMI), resting metabolism, body fat, muscle composition, and visceral fat.
Results: Most of the study participants were married (57.5%), multiparous (59.6%), and not pregnant (95.0%) while less than half were within the age ranges of 15-22 years (31.2%), had completed secondary education (46.7%) and have 5 and above children (42.1%). BMI (p=0.004), resting energy expenditure (p=0.032), body fat (p=0.015), and visceral fat (p=0.017) were found to be significantly higher in urban participants whereas only muscle composition (p=0.016) was significantly higher in rural participants.
Conclusion: Give a summary of the result. The results obtained suggest a healthier body composition among rural-dwelling WRA. The higher visceral and overall boy fat in urban-dwelling WRA may predispose them to a higher risk of overweight and obesity.

Introduction: Glaucoma remains the second leading cause of blindness worldwide. Early detection and treatment play a key role in glaucoma management. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of glaucoma among patients attending the eye clinic at Buluk Eye Centre from 1st January to 31st December 2017.
Method: This study was a cross-sectional retrospective study using data extracted from the registration cards of patients at Buluk Eye Centre from 1st of January 2017 to 31st of December 2017. A datasheet was used to collect the relevant variables including demographic variables. Data were entered, organized and analysed using SPSS version 21 [IBM SPSS Statistics] and p<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: The studied population was 16,727 patients (33,454 eyes) seen, age range from 7 months to 90 years, (mean 56.7, SD 14.7). There were 63% females and 37% males, ratio of 1.7:1 (p<0.05). Glaucoma accounted for 2.3% of diseases seen with p<0.05. Females (58%) were more affected than males (42%), with age group 46-60 years being the most affected (36.9% p<0.05). Most of the patients (71.9%) had visual acuity of less than 3/60 in both eyes (p<0.05). The highest proportion of glaucoma cases (29.4%) presented in July to September, with the least (21.2%) from January to March. Most of the glaucoma cases (39%) originated from Central Equatoria and the least (1%) from Abyei.
Conclusion: Glaucoma remains a significant cause of severe sight loss in South Sudan, particularly affecting females and those aged 45-60 years.

Published: September 2022

Introduction: Globally, poor male participation in antenatal care (ANC) and reproductive health issues is still a challenge towards improvement of maternal and child health. Quality antenatal care and birth outcomes depend on the shared responsibility between men and women.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the level of male participation in ANC and the associated social demographic determinants.
Method: The study was cross-sectional and was based in the community in the Nyamagana district, Tanzania. Male partners aged 18-49 years were interviewed using the four dichotomized (yes or no) variables to determine the level of male participation in ANC. The data were analyzed by using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS Version 24). Chi-square test was used to determine the association between demographic characteristics and the level of male involvement in ANC.
Results: The level of male participation was high in this study (76.3%). Men with a primary level of education were twice (AOR 2.15, 95% CI [1.15– 4.02], p-value 0.01) as likely to participate in ANC compared to men with no formal education. If the number of children was more than two, there was a significant association with male participation in ANC (OR 1.57, 95% CI [1.12–1.77], p =0.02).
Conclusion: The level of male participation in ANC is high in Nyamagana district. The number of children and level of education are social demographic determinants of male participation in ANC.

Oryctes rhinoceros L. merupakan salah satu hama penting pada tanaman kelapa sawit. Hama ini dapat menyebabkan turunnya produksi tandan buah segar (TBS) pada tahun pertama hingga 69%, bahkan sampai menyebabkan 25% tanaman muda mati. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui pemanfaatan sari buah nanas dan air aren sebagai perangkap alernatif dalam mengendalikan hama kumbang tanduk. Penelitian dilaksanakan dilaksanakan pada bulan Januari 2022 di Perkebunan kelapa sawit LTJ , Kecamatan Tanjung Medan, Kabupaten Rokan Hilir, Provinsi Riau. Perlakuan memiliki 3 perlakuan dengan masing-masing perlakuan diulang sebanyak 10 kali, perlakuan yang di uji, (a) perangkap dengan No = 500 gram buah nanas. (b) N1 = 500 gram buah nanas + 1 liter air nira, (c) N2 = 1 kg buah nanas + 2 liter air nira.Selanjutnya digantungkan pada tiang kayu/bambu dengan tinggi 2,5 m, dengan jarak antar perangkap 25 meter, Masing-masing perangkap diturunkan setiap pagi hari selama 7 hari pengamatan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan kumbang tanduk tertangkap paling tinggi yaitu pada pemberian perlakuan N2 sebanyak 46 ekor dengan rataan 6,5 ekor/ hari dan paling rendah pada perlakuan No yaitu sebanyak 19 ekor dengan rataan 2,7 ekor/hari. Persentase jenis kelamin kumbang tanduk yang tertangkap paling tinggi adalah berjenis kelamin jantan yaitu sebesar 62,5%, dan jenis kelamin betina sebesar 37,5%. Dengan demikian, pemanfaatan sari buah nanas dan air nira dapat dijadikan sebagai perangkap ferotrap alternatif untuk mengendalikan hama kumbang tanduk.

Published: September 2022

Abstract
Academic advising has emerged as a field of study within higher education. To further develop this field, advising professionals need to engage in scholarly pursuits, including research and publishing. One way of supporting advising scholarship is to create a writing group. Writing groups have long been used in higher education academia to promote writing and research. However, writing groups for academic advisors are less common. This article describes how one advisor writing group has achieved success in reaching its goals and the practices and methods that were found to be most effective in the group’s success.
