Abstract

High-risk pregnancy is a major global health issue, marked by high maternal and infant mortality rates, and poses both physical and psychological challenges for women. This study aimed to explore the experiences of women with high-risk pregnancies through a scoping and literature review using Medline, PubMed, and Scopus. The search utilized keywords related to maternal experiences in high-risk pregnancies and included qualitative and mixed-method studies published in English from 2016 to 2024. A total of 15 articles were reviewed, revealing six key experiences: continuous care, communication, psychological support, non-pharmacological therapies, understanding of risks, and technological advancements. Findings indicate that social support, ongoing healthcare access, and health technologies can reduce anxiety and improve well-being. Effective communication, continuous care models, and telemonitoring during the pandemic have shown positive impacts on managing high-risk pregnancies.

Abstract

This study aimed to quantify skills gaps in Ethiopian engineering education across civil, electrical, mechanical, and chemical disciplines, identify perceptual differences among stakeholders, examine institutional and pedagogical determinants, and compare outcomes between Institutes of Technology (IoTs) and conventional university structures. A cross-sectional mixed-methods survey collected Likert-scale ratings from 320 graduates, 180 employers, and 140 instructors across seven universities. Descriptive statistics, non-parametric tests (Kruskal-Wallis, Mann-Whitney U), gap analysis, and visualizations (bar plots, heatmaps, radar charts, and box plots) were employed to assess alignment, stakeholder perceptions, and institutional/pedagogical influences. Findings Significant gaps (1.1–1.7 points on a 5-point scale) were found, largest in technical skills, discipline-specific knowledge, and generic technical competencies. Employers rated readiness substantially higher than graduates and instructors, with statistically significant divergence in technical domains. IoTs exhibited consistently smaller gaps (average reduction 0.20–0.25 points), lower lecture dominance, modestly higher project/problem-based learning, and stronger (though still limited) industry practitioner integration compared to conventional structures. Systemic misalignment between engineering curricula and labor-market needs persists, driven by lecture-heavy pedagogy, weak industry linkage, and institutional design differences. IoTs demonstrate structural advantages in reducing skills deficits. Shift toward active, project-based pedagogies, integrate industry practitioners systematically, scale IoT-inspired models nationwide, and establish continuous employer feedback mechanisms to align engineering education with Ethiopia’s industrialization priorities.

Abstract

Introductory mechanics courses present persistent challenges for first-year university students, who often hold robust misconceptions that traditional instruction fails to address. Smartphone-based laboratories (SmartIPLs) offer an accessible, low-cost alternative that may enhance conceptual understanding through authentic, inquiry-based experimentation. This quasi-experimental study investigated the effectiveness of smartphone-based laboratories for enhancing conceptual understanding of mechanics among first-year university students and examined gender differences in intervention outcomes. Methods: Participants were 128 first-year students (45% female, 55% male) randomly assigned to experimental (n = 64) and control (n = 64) groups. The experimental group completed five smartphone-based laboratory activities using the phyphox app over eight weeks, while the control group completed traditional verification laboratories covering identical mechanics topics. Conceptual understanding was measured using the Force Concept Inventory (FCI) at pretest and posttest. Student perceptions were assessed through a 12-item survey and focus group interviews. Data were analyzed using ANCOVA, two-way ANOVA, and thematic analysis.

Abstract

Natural morphologies, from phyllotactic spirals in sunflowers to logarithmic nautilus shells, embody efficient parametric geometries governed by irrational angles like the golden ratio (φ ≈ 1.618) and superformulas. These patterns optimize packing, growth, and structural integrity, inspiring biomimicry amid escalating demands for sustainable engineering by 2005. Purpose: This study synthesizes mathematical modeling of Fibonacci phyllotaxis, logarithmic spirals, L-systems, and superformulas to validate natural patterns, evolve biomimetic designs via genetic algorithms, and quantify performance in solar arrays, antennas, and composites. Evolutionary algorithms (population=200, generations=50) optimized parameters across morphospaces, integrated with FEA for structural metrics and ray-tracing for efficiency. Findings: Golden-angle phyllotaxis achieved 95% packing density, nautilus fits yielded b=0.31 (MSE=4.14), pinecone divergences α=142.3° (HD=0.20). Superformula morphospaces spanned m=1-8, n1=0.5-3.0, evolving b from 0.08 to 0.124 (+55%).

Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly shaping the landscape of health communication by transforming the ways health information is generated, distributed, and consumed. In Nigeria, the integration of AI-driven technologies such as chatbots, automated health information systems, predictive analytics, and algorithm-based content dissemination has created new opportunities for improving public health communication and expanding access to health information. However, the rapid adoption of these technologies also raises significant ethical concerns that require critical scholarly attention. This paper provides a conceptual examination of the ethical implications of AI in health communication practice in Nigeria. Based on the existing literature on digital communication, health communication, and technology ethics, the paper explores key ethical issues including data privacy and protection, algorithmic bias, misinformation and disinformation, transparency and accountability, and the digital divide. The paper argues that while AI has the potential to enhance the efficiency, reach, and personalization of health communication, the absence of robust ethical guidelines and regulatory frameworks may undermine public trust and exacerbate existing health inequalities. In the Nigerian context, where disparities in digital literacy and access to technology remain pronounced, the ethical deployment of AI becomes even more critical to ensure that vulnerable populations are not marginalized in the process of technological innovation. The paper therefore advocates for the development of context-specific ethical standards, stronger regulatory oversight, and interdisciplinary collaboration among communication scholars, health professionals, policymakers, and technology developers. Such measures are necessary to ensure that the application of AI in health communication aligns with principles of equity, responsibility, and public interest.

Abstract

Football remains one of the most influential sports globally, attracting massive audiences and significant media attention, with over 250 million players and 1.3 billion followers worldwide. In Nigeria, the sport holds deep cultural significance, serving as a unifying force that fosters national identity, social cohesion, and economic opportunities through media broadcasting, sponsorship, and youth engagement. Despite this prominence, the development and recognition of football in Nigeria are marked by persistent gender inequalities. While men’s football enjoys extensive media coverage, structured leagues, and substantial sponsorship investment, women’s football—despite notable achievements such as the dominance of the Super Falcons in African competitions—remains underrepresented and underfunded. This study critically examines disparities in media coverage, sponsorship, and public perception between men’s and women’s football in Nigeria. Drawing on secondary data and supported by Agenda-Setting Theory, the paper argues that the disproportionate visibility given to men’s football by Nigerian media shapes public attitudes, reinforces cultural stereotypes, and influences the allocation of financial resources in favor of male teams. The findings reveal that limited media attention, biased reporting patterns, and unequal sponsorship structures collectively marginalize women’s football, restricting its growth and diminishing its competitive potential. The study concludes that without deliberate efforts to ensure balanced media representation and equitable investment, gender inequality in Nigerian football will persist, undermining both the development of the sport and the broader goal of gender inclusion.

Abstract

This study interrogates the complex intersection of media, culture, and child protection in Nigeria, highlighting the persistent tension between culturally embedded norms and the universalist ideals underpinning rights-based journalism. Despite Nigeria’s formal commitment to safeguarding children through frameworks such as the Child Rights Act and the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, widespread violations including child abuse, labour, early marriage, and stigmatization remain deeply normalized within socio-cultural contexts. Anchored in Framing Theory, the paper examines how media narratives construct, reinforce, or challenge these cultural logics by selectively emphasizing particular interpretations of child-related issues. It argues that media framing in Nigeria is not neutral but is shaped by institutional constraints, commercial pressures, and dominant cultural beliefs, which often limit the transformative potential of rights-based journalism. The study adopts a qualitative methodology based on secondary data, drawing from peer-reviewed literature, policy documents, legal instruments, and reports from organizations such as UNICEF, alongside analyses of media practices in Nigeria. Findings reveal that while the media serves as a critical platform for advocacy and agenda-setting, it simultaneously reproduces societal norms through episodic reporting, sensationalism, and the marginalization of children’s voices. Furthermore, cultural mediation significantly influences both the interpretation of child protection and the framing of such issues in media discourse, often blurring the boundaries between discipline and abuse. The paper concludes that although rights-based journalism provides a strong normative framework for ethical reporting, its practical application in Nigeria is constrained by entrenched cultural values and structural limitations. It therefore calls for more context-sensitive, child-centred, and ethically grounded media practices that can effectively challenge harmful norms and advance the protection of children’s rights.

Abstract

The conflict narrative between religion and science persists in popular discourse despite growing historical and theological evidence of compatibility. Contemporary Christian theology offers a framework for synergy, yet empirical case studies from non‑Western contexts remain underexplored. This review critically examines the theological foundations for science‑religion synergy within mainstream contemporary Christianity and analyses two Ethiopian case studies Orthodox faith leaders’ role in COVID‑19 vaccination promotion, and the male circumcision rite to demonstrate synergy in practice. A critical review synthesising peer‑reviewed literature, theological documents, public health reports, and qualitative studies on Ethiopian Orthodox Christian engagement with science. Contemporary Christian theology (Catholic, Orthodox, mainline Protestant) provides robust support for synergy via complementary domains of “how” (science) and “why” (faith). In Ethiopia, faith leaders actively promoted COVID‑19 vaccination using the message “God protects us from death through faith and science,” receiving training and publicly modelling vaccination. Male circumcision, a near‑universal cultural rite of passage (not a sacrament), has been harmonised with medical science, with Church endorsement of hospital‑based procedures. Commonalities include faith leaders reframing practices as science‑consistent, partnership with health authorities, and adaptive use of religious authority. Synergy between religion and science is not an abstract ideal but a lived, effective partnership capable of saving lives and preserving cultural identity. The Ethiopian Orthodox model offers a replicable paradigm. Public health programmes should actively partner with trusted religious leaders. Theological education should embrace science engagement. Comparative research across Orthodox traditions and quantitative impact studies are urgently needed.

Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a vital role in supporting Indonesia’s economic growth, particularly in the culinary sector. As consumer demand for safe, high-quality, and religiously compliant food products continues to increase, halal certification has become an important factor influencing purchasing decisions among Indonesia’s predominantly Muslim population. Beyond regulatory compliance, halal certification serves as a strategic tool for enhancing product value and business competitiveness. This Community Service Program (PKM), entitled “Halal Certification Strategy as a Value-Added Driver for Culinary MSME Products in Bantaragung Village, Sindangwangi District, Majalengka Regency, West Java,” was conducted on May 8–9, 2026, in collaboration with the Bantaragung Village Government. The program was organized by lecturers from STEBI Bina Essa Bandung Barat, Tri Bhakti College of Economics, Wibawa Karta Raharja College of Economics, and STIE Bisnis Indonesia. Eleven local culinary MSME representatives participated in the activities. The program employed educational workshops, interactive discussions, consultations, and mentoring sessions focused on halal certification procedures and implementation. The results demonstrated improved participant understanding of the importance of halal certification, application requirements, economic benefits, and strategies for integrating halal certification into business development efforts. Participants also gained greater awareness of halal product assurance standards and their role in maintaining consumer trust. The program concludes that halal certification can effectively increase the added value of culinary MSME products, strengthen market competitiveness, and support sustainable business growth through expanded market access and enhanced consumer confidence.

Abstract

Abuse of authority in the banking sector constitutes one form of economic crime that has significant implications for customer protection, the stability of the financial system, and the level of public trust in the banking industry. The practice of abuse of authority by internal banking organs, including directors, commissioners, officers, and employees, is often manifested in the form of fictitious credit disbursement, manipulation of financial data, misuse of customer funds, and violations of the prudential banking principle. The central issue lies in the fact that law enforcement against banking crimes in Indonesia still tends to focus on individual liability, while the involvement of corporations as legal entities has not been optimally enforced. This study aims to analyze the forms and characteristics of abuse of authority in the banking sector that may be qualified as corporate crimes, to examine the legal regulation of corporate criminal liability for abuse of authority in the banking sector in Indonesia, and to formulate a model of corporate criminal liability capable of realizing legal certainty, justice, and utility. This research employs a normative legal research method using the statute approach, conceptual approach, and case approach. The legal materials consist of primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources, which are analyzed qualitatively using a juridical-prescriptive method. The findings reveal that abuse of authority in the banking sector is not always an individual act but may be qualified as a corporate crime when there is a connection between individual actions and organizational structure, business interests, corporate benefit, institutional omission, or failure of the bank’s internal supervisory system. The legal framework governing corporate criminal liability has essentially been established through banking regulations, criminal law, and procedural mechanisms for handling corporate crimes. However, its implementation still faces normative and practical obstacles. Therefore, a corporate criminal liability model based on the integration of individual and corporate liability, the strengthening of good corporate governance, compliance systems, and a corporate negligence approach is necessary to improve the effectiveness of combating abuse of authority in the banking sector.
