AI DRIVEN CLINICAL DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEMS: A RETRIEVAL AUGMENTED GENERATION APPROACH FOR HEALTHCARE DELIVERY AND EFFICIENCY
type: item
description: Clinical decision support systems have become increasingly important in modern healthcare, yet many language model-based approaches remain limited by unsupported responses, insufficient contextual grounding, and inadequate reliability for routine clinical use. To address these limitations, this study proposes a guideline-grounded retrieval-augmented generation framework that combines dense semantic retrieval with large-language model-based answer generation for healthcare question answering. The framework was developed using the epfl_llm/guidelines dataset, from which a large-scale retrieval corpus of 970,584 text chunks was constructed through systematic preprocessing, recursive text chunking, metadata preservation, embedding generation, and vector indexing in ChromaDB. Three embedding models, namely all-MiniLM-L6-v2, E5-base-v2, and BGE-base-v1.5, were evaluated alongside three language model configurations, including Phi-3 Mini, LLaMA 7B, and GPT-4o-mini, to assess retrieval effectiveness, answer relevance, contextual alignment, and inference efficiency across a manually curated set of 56 clinical questions. The results demonstrate that retrieval quality strongly influences final response quality, with BAAI/BGE-base-v1.5 achieving the highest retrieval performance across all ranking metrics. Furthermore, the RAG-based framework consistently outperformed direct language model generation across all lexical and semantic evaluation metrics, confirming the benefit of grounding generated responses in retrieved clinical evidence. A practical trade-off between response quality and inference latency was also observed across model configurations. These findings suggest that guideline-grounded retrieval-augmented generation is a promising, practically viable approach for developing more trustworthy, context-aware, and evidence-based clinical decision support systems.

Distal Penile Hypospadias Repair: Revisiting Anterior Urethral Advancement Versus Tubularized Incised Plate Techniques
type: item
description: Background: Distal penile hypospadias represents the most common form of hypospadias, accounting for nearly 70% of cases, and continues to be a focal point of innovation in pediatric urologic and reconstructive surgery. Surgical correction aims to achieve a functionally straight penis with a terminally positioned meatus and satisfactory cosmetic appearance, while minimizing complications such as urethrocutaneous fistula, meatal stenosis, and glans dehiscence. Among the numerous operative techniques described, the tubularized incised plate (TIP) urethroplasty, popularized by Snodgrass, has emerged as the most widely adopted approach due to its reproducibility and favorable cosmetic outcomes. In contrast, anterior urethral advancement techniques, including variants of urethral mobilization and advancement without urethral plate incision, have been revisited as tissue-preserving alternatives that avoid urethral reconstruction and its associated morbidity

Immunogenetic Determinants of Therapeutic Resistance in Glanzmann Thrombasthenia
type: item
description: Background: Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) is a rare inherited platelet function disorder characterized by qualitative or quantitative defects in the platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa (αIIbβ3) integrin, leading to impaired platelet aggregation and a lifelong bleeding tendency. Despite advances in supportive management, including platelet transfusions and recombinant activated factor VII (rFVIIa), a subset of patients demonstrates poor or diminishing therapeutic response. Increasing evidence suggests that immunogenetic factors play a pivotal role in modulating treatment outcomes in GT, particularly through mechanisms involving alloimmunization and immune-mediated platelet refractoriness.

Hemophilic Arthropathy in Children: Impact of Inhibitors on Musculoskeletal Outcomes and Disease Progression
type: item
description: Background: Hemophilia is a hereditary X-linked bleeding disorder characterized by deficiency of coagulation factors VIII or IX, leading to recurrent bleeding episodes, particularly within joints and muscles. In pediatric patients, repeated hemarthroses represent the most significant clinical manifestation, initiating a cascade of pathological events that culminate in hemophilic arthropathy. This chronic musculoskeletal complication is a major source of morbidity, resulting in progressive joint destruction, pain, functional impairment, and reduced quality of life. Despite advances in prophylactic therapies, musculoskeletal complications remain prevalent, particularly in children with severe disease phenotypes. The development of inhibitors—neutralizing antibodies against replacement clotting factors—has emerged as one of the most challenging complications in hemophilia management. Inhibitors compromise the efficacy of standard replacement therapy, leading to poorly controlled bleeding episodes and increased frequency of hemarthrosis. Consequently, children with inhibitors are at a significantly higher risk of accelerated joint damage and early onset of arthropathy. The interaction between inhibitor status and musculoskeletal outcomes is complex,involving increased inflammatory responses, persistent synovitis, and impaired hemostatic control, all of which contribute to disease progression. The pathophysiology of hemophilic arthropathy involves recurrent intra-articular bleeding, iron deposition, synovial hypertrophy, and chronic inflammation, ultimately resulting in cartilage degradation and osteochondral damage. These processes are particularly detrimental in children, as growing joints are more susceptible to irreversible structural changes. Additionally, various genetic, environmental, and treatment-related factors—including timing of prophylaxis, treatment adherence, and physical activity—modulate disease severity and progression. This review aims to provide a co…

SCHOOL SAFETY MANAGEMENT AND TEACHERS’ ORGANIZATIONAL COMMITMENT AS PREDICTORS OF TEACHERS’ JOB PERFORMANCE IN EBONYI STATE, NIGERIA
type: item
description: This study investigated school safety management and teachers’ organizational commitment as predictors of teachers’ job performance in Ebonyi State, Nigeria. Three research questions and three null hypotheses guided the study. The study adopted a correlational research design. The population of the study comprised all public secondary school teachers in Ebonyi State, while a representative sample size of 294 public secondary school teachers was sampled using a multi-stage sampling procedure. Data were collected using three researchers’-developed instruments titled School Safety Management Questionnaire (SSMQ), Teachers’ Organizational Commitment Questionnaire (TOCQ), and Teachers’ Job Performance Questionnaire (TJPQ). The instruments were validated by experts in Educational Management and Measurement and Evaluation, while their reliability was established using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient, which yielded acceptable reliability indices of 0.92, 0.89 and 0.91 for SSMQ, TOCQ and TJPQ respectively. Data collected were analyzed using regression analysis. Specifically, linear regression was used to answer research questions 1-2, while research question 3 was answered using multiple regression. Hypotheses 1-2 were tested using regression t-test, while regression ANOVA was used to test hypotheses 3. The findings of the study revealed that school safety management accounted for 7.3% of the variation in teachers’ job performance and significantly predicted teachers’ job performance in Ebonyi State.

EFFICACY OF TWO MODES OF METACOGNITIVE TEACHING STRATEGIES ON JUNIOR SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS’ INTEREST IN CULTURAL AND CREATIVE ARTS IN BENUE STATE, NIGERIA
type: item
description: The study investigated the effect of two metacognitive teaching strategies on Junior Secondary School Students’ interest in Cultural and Creative Arts (CCA) in Benue State, North-Central Nigeria. Guided by three research questions and corresponding null hypotheses, the study adopted a quasi-experimental design. The population comprised all Junior Secondary School II students offering CCA in Benue State, from which a sample was drawn using a multi-stage sampling procedure. Two intact classes were assigned to experimental group I (Think-Aloud Problem-Solving Strategy), and experimental group II (Elaboration Strategy). An instrument titled “Cultural and Creative Arts Interest Inventory (CCAII) designed by the researchers was used for data collection. The instrument was validated by three experts in Department of Art Education (Cultural and Creative Arts), Department of Science Education (Measurement and Evaluation) and Department of Educational Foundations (Educational Psychology), and its reliability established using Cronbach’s Alpha, yielding a coefficient of 0.76. Data were analyzed using mean and standard deviation to answer the research questions, while Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was employed to test the hypotheses at a 0.05 level of significance. Findings of the study revealed that think-aloud problem solving strategy significantly enhancing students’ interest more than both the Elaboration Strategy. However, gender did not significantly influence students’ interest in CCA, and the interaction effect of teaching strategies and gender on students’ interest was not significant. It was recommended, among others, that Cultural and Creative Arts teachers should adopt metacognitive teaching strategies such as the think-aloud problem solving strategy to enhance students’ sustained interest and participation in the subject. Teacher education programs and curriculum planners should also emphasize the integration of metacognitive pedagogy in art instruction to promot…

Acute Non-Cardioembolic Ischemic Stroke: Dual Antiplatelets for Secondary Prevention— Clinical Profile, Timing, Duration, and Outcomes
type: item
description: Background: Acute non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke accounts for the majority of ischemic cerebrovascular events and remains a leading cause of long-term disability and mortality worldwide. Early secondary prevention is crucial, as the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke is highest within the first days to weeks following the index event. Antiplatelet therapy represents the cornerstone of management in this population, with aspirin traditionally used as monotherapy. However, residual early recurrence despite single antiplatelet therapy has prompted growing interest in dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) as a more effective short-term strategy to reduce ischemic events.

Coronal and Sagittal Plane Malalignment in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Deficiency: Clinical Implications, and Surgical Strategies
type: item
description: Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficiency is a complex pathological condition that extends beyond isolated ligament disruption, involving significant alterations in knee biomechanics influenced by both coronal and sagittal plane malalignment. Increasing evidence suggests that factors such as varus deformity and increased posterior tibial slope (PTS) play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of ACL injury, persistence of instability, and failure of reconstruction. Despite advances in surgical techniques, failure rates followingACL reconstruction (ACLR) remain notable, highlighting the importance of addressing underlying osseous malalignment.

Contemporary Management of Giant Cell Tumor of the Distal Femur: Role of Extended Curettage and Bone Cement Reconstruction
type: item
description: Background: Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) is a locally aggressive, osteolytic neoplasm that typically affects skeletally mature individuals, with a predilection for the epimetaphyseal region of long bones. The distal femur represents one of the most commonly involved sites and poses unique challenges due to its proximity to the knee joint, high functional demands, and risk of local recurrence. Historically, wide resection was advocated to minimize recurrence; however, this approach often compromises joint integrity and functionaloutcomes. Advances in surgical techniques and local adjuvant therapies have led to a paradigm shift toward limb- and joint-preserving strategies.
