PEDAGOGICAL PRACTICES OF THE EFL TEACHERS AT THE PRIVATE UNIVERSITIES IN BANGLADESH
type: item
description: Public and private universities in Bangladesh have significantly prioritized teaching and learning of the English language. However, studies reveal that a large number of graduates struggle in their careers due to a lack of proficiency in the English language. As a result, research will inevitably advance the teaching-learning status of English at this level of education. This study primarily examines the English teaching landscape at private universities in Bangladesh, particularly emphasizing the pedagogical practices employed by English language instructors. A Mixed Method Research approach was employed for data collection and analysis for the study. Besides, this study involved the random selection of 60 English teachers from 10 private universities in the Dhaka division of Bangladesh. The data for this study were gathered using a teacher questionnaire and a classroom observation checklist. The quantitative data were analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistical methods. Qualitative analysis employed a constant comparative method. The researcher discovered that the majority of EFL teachers did not adhere to the teaching method outlined in the university curriculum; instead, they opted for an eclectic approach, without taking into account the lesson objectives and the students' abilities. Moreover, the teachers lacked sufficient preparation for implementing practical teaching methods due to the absence of monitoring and evaluation by university authorities or other institutions. Typically, teachers presented traditional lectures while students listened and attempted to comprehend the content, whether intentionally or unintentionally. When it comes to classroom activities, the majority of teachers seldom ever employed any communicative exercises to help their students get better at English. Insufficient and unsuitable speaking and listening exercises were planned by the teachers themselves.

EVALUATION OF PHYSICIAN ADHERENCE TO STANDARD PRECAUTIONS IN GYNECOLOGY AND OBSTETRICS RESIDENCY: A PRACTICE, CHALLENGE AND TRAINING NEED STUDY
type: item
description: Background: Standard Precautions (SP) are the crucial measures of avoiding healthcare-associated infection and their implementation is important in safeguarding healthcare professionals and patients alike. Doctors, especially the ones working in gynecology and obstetrics, are more likely to be exposed to blood stains and bodily fluid of a patient because their work is invasive. Nevertheless, the compliance of the SP of resident physicians in these specialties has not been sufficiently investigated. Purpose: The aim of the study was to evaluate the compliance of the resident physicians in the gynecology and obstetrics department with SP protocols and to find out what factors impact on adherence. Methods: A quantitative descriptive study was done on 121 gynecology and obstetrics resident physicians in three years of residency (R1, R2, R3) in a teaching hospital. The data were gathered on the basis of a structured questionnaire and Standard Precautions Compliance Scale which had 13 items in the form of a Likert-type instrument. The data was analysed using descriptive statistics and Kruskal-Wallis test. Ethical permission was granted and informed consent was gathered to all the participants. Findings: The researchers discovered that there were very big differences in adherence to SP depending on practices. Compliance was high in regards to proper sharps disposal (96.6) and the use of gloves in case they got exposed to blood and secretions (79.3). Nevertheless, the rates of compliance were lower with such practices as treating patients as they were infected with HIV (8.3%), and wearing safety glasses (17.4%). There were also great variations in compliance between the years of residency as R1 residents were more likely to comply to hand hygiene and standard precautions than the R2 and R3 residents. Conclusions: This paper identifies moderate adherence to SP in gynecological and obstetric resident physicians. Most of the major practices were highly adhered to but there is …

COMPARATIVE EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF ROFECOXIB VERSUS DICLOFENAC IN PERIOPERATIVE PAIN MANAGEMENT FOR GYNECOLOGICAL SURGERIES
type: item
description: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the most widely used drugs in pain management though they have negative effects that reduce their application in the perioperative period, of which non-selective cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors are the worst offenders. The selective COX-2 inhibitors, such as rofecoxib are regarded as safer medications, as they have little effect on the activity of platelets and produce less gastrointestinal disorders. The purpose of the study was to compare the problematic of a single 50 mg dose of rofecoxib against rofecoxib and three doses of 50 mg each of diclofenac on the effects of the drugs on the platelet functions, blood loss as well as pain control during the gynecological operations. An active-comparator clinical trial (random/double-blind/double-dummy) was performed on 75 patients who received vaginal hysterectomy or breast operation. The trial evaluated platelet aggregation, blood loss during the procedure, and hemoglobin changes postoperatively and the requirement of extra pain killers or anti-vomiting drugs. Conclusions were that rofecoxib considerably decreased platelet aggregations (P = 0.02), intraoperative blood shed (P = 0.01) and hemoglobin shedding (P = 0.01) as compared to diclofenac. Also, rofecoxib controlled pain in a similar proportion to that of three doses of Diclofenac and hence fewer anti-emety drugs were needed (P = 0.03). These results indicate that rofecoxib is superior in its hemostatic effect, lowers oxidative stress, it has a better side-effect profile than diclofenac. Briefly, despite the comparable results in terms of analgesic effect, the potential benefit of rofecoxib to limit bleeding, postoperative complications and a minimal number of gastrointestinal adverse effects renders it to be a viable alternative to non-selective NSAIDs in perioperative pain management. Nevertheless, subsequent investigations are required to assess the positive correlation between the long term cardiovascular safety…

EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE AS CORRELATE OF CHEMISTRY EDUCATION UNDERGRADUATES’ ACADEMIC ENGAGEMENT IN UNIVERSITIES IN SOUTH EAST NIGERIA
type: item
description: Emotions managed well prevents emotional outbursts. The skills of emotional intelligence are valuable in managing students’ education and mental health. The study investigated the relationship between self-awareness, self-motivation, emotional intelligence and undergraduates’ academic engagement in Chemistry education in south-east Nigeria. Correlation survey research design was adopted for the study. The population consists of 180 students. 60 students were sampled using purposive sampling technique. Chemistry Education Undergraduate Emotional Intelligence Scale (CEUEIS) and Chemistry Education Undergraduate Engagement Rating Scale (CEUERS) were used to collect data. The reliability coefficients of CEUEIS and CEUERS were 0.98 and 0.92, respectively, using Cronbach's alpha method. Regression analysis, analysis of variance, and t-value derived from Haye's process macro were utilized to analyze the data. Results showed that there is a moderate positive relationship between self-awareness, self-motivation, emotional intelligence and undergraduates’ academic engagement in chemistry education. The amount of variation in Chemistry education undergraduates’ academic engagement that is attributed to emotional intelligence, self-awareness and self-motivation is statistically significant. Chemistry education undergraduates’ emotional intelligence, self-awareness and self-motivation determines their academic engagement. Thus, teachers need to relate to their students on an emotional level, support them to build high emotional stability, develop coping mechanisms to enable them manage stress, anxiety and other emotions that can affect their academic engagement and achievement.

The study further examined the influence of gender and the interaction effect between instructional strategies and gender on students’ engagement. A quasi experimental design involving 243 senior secondary school Biology students was adopted, with participants randomly assigned to either AR or VR instructional groups. Student Engagement Questionnaire (SEQ) was used to collect data on behavioral, emotional, and cognitive engagement. The reliability of the instrument was established using Cronbach Alpha method, and reliability coefficient of .93 was obtained. Mean and standard deviation was used to answer all the research questions while Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used to test the formulated hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed no significant difference in the mean engagement scores of students taught Biology using augmented reality (AR) and those taught with virtual reality (VR) technologies; no significant influence of gender on senior secondary school students’ engagement in Biology, and the interaction effect of instructional strategies and gender on senior secondary school students’ engagement in Biology is not significant. These results suggest that both AR and VR are equally effective in fostering student engagement in Biology, and that engagement levels are consistent across gender. The study recommends the adoption of immersive technologies in science classrooms, teacher training on AR/VR integration, and the design of inclusive, student-centered instructional strategies.

INFLUENCE OF GENDER ON STUDENTS’ INTEREST AND ACHIEVEMENT IN GENETICS USING TWO CONSTRUCTIVIST INSTRUCTIONAL MODELS IN SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN ENUGU STATE, NIGERIA
type: item
description: This study investigated the influence of gender on students’ interest and achievement in Genetics using two constructivist instructional models. Two research questions and two hypotheses guided the study. Quasi-experimental research design, specifically the non-equivalent control group design, was adopted for the study. The population of the study comprises 1,986 (816 male and 1,170 female) SS111 Biology students in 31 public secondary schools in Enugu Education Zone, Enugu State, Nigeria. A sample size of 160 (79 male and 81 female) SS111 Biology students selected through a multistage sampling technique was used for the study. The instruments for data collection were Genetics Interest Inventory (GII) and the Genetics Achievement Test (GAT). The internal consistency reliability coefficient of 0.64 was obtained using the Kuder-Richardson formula (K-R 20). The research questions were answered using mean and standard deviation, while the hypotheses were tested using analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) at 0.05 level of significance. The findings of the study revealed that there is no significant difference between gender and students’ interest and achievement in Genetics using two constructivist instructional models. The study therefore recommended that Biology teachers should encourage both male and female students to engage in participatory learning using two constructivist instructional models, which were found to be effective in enhancing students’ interest and achievement in Genetics.

Semaglutide and Neuroprotection: Exploring Mechanisms Against Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury Beyond Glycemic Control
type: item
description: Ischemic stroke remains a leading cause of mortality and long-term disability worldwide, with ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury representing a major therapeutic challenge. Restoration of blood flow, though essential, paradoxically exacerbates neuronal damage through oxidative stress, excitotoxicity, inflammation, and mitochondrial dysfunction. Despite progress in reperfusion therapies such asthrombolysis and mechanical thrombectomy, effective

INTEGRATION OF VISION-LANGUAGE MODELS FOR INTELLIGENT DOCUMENT ANALYSIS IN SALESFORCE
type: item
description: Recent momentum in multimodal artificial intelligence (AI) models, including CLIP and Gemini, has allowed companies to extract any structure information in unstructured document-based data such as scanned contracts, forms, and PDFs. Infusion of these capabilities in Salesforce would revolutionize workflows by automating the process of ingesting, classifying and extracting fields in CRM pipelines. The paper discusses architecture design, implementation approach and performance metrics of vision-language models of intelligent document analysis in Salesforce. We describe the process of documents preprocessing, extracting important entities and clauses, and providing a record in a structured format that would reference the Salesforce objects. Compared to zero-shot extraction by CLIP, a fine-tuned Gemini classifier demonstrates an equal navigation between practical flexibility and precision. Experimental results on both datasets of legal agreements and customer forms lead us to report values of the precision, recall, and speed of processing metrics, which show a substantial advantage towards the use of conventional OCR and keyword-based extraction. The need to integrate it, the problem of governance, user experience and best practices and architectural considerations on enterprise deployment are also covered concluding with the best practices and architectural considerations on enterprise deployment

APPLICATION OF BIOCHAR AS PARTIAL CEMENT REPLACEMENT WITH POLYPROPYLENE PLASTIC WASTE FOR SUSTAINABLE CONCRETE PAVING BLOCKS
type: item
description: Cement production and sand extraction contribute heavily to carbon emissions and environmental degradation. This study investigates the development of sustainable concrete paving blocks by partially replacing cement with biochar and sand with polypropylene (PP) plastic waste. Concrete blocks with dimensions of 11.25 × 22.5 × 6 cm were cast using a 1:2:1 cement:sand:crushed stone ratio, substituting 5–20% biochar and 2–6% PP, and cured for 3, 7, and 28 days. Tests conducted in accordance with TIS 827-2565 included compressive strength, water absorption, density, and skid resistance. Results indicated that replacing cement with biochar and sand with PP slightly decreased the density; however, mixtures containing up to 5% biochar and 2% PP maintained density values comparable to the control mix. The optimum performance occurred at 5% biochar and 2% PP, achieving a compressive strength of 52.11 MPa with acceptable water absorption and skid resistance. The findings highlight a practical and eco-efficient approach for reusing natural and plastic wastes in construction, reducing reliance on virgin materials while producing standardized and sustainable concrete suitable for practical applications.
