Cerebral thrombophlebitis gravidopuerperale is a rare but serious pathology that can engage the maternal-fetal prognosis. It requires early diagnosis and treatment fast. Indeed, much rarer than arterial thromboses, thrombophlebitis are a significant cause of death and stroke. They can occur during pregnancy but most often they occur within a few days to a few months following postpartum. The frequency of peripartum cerebral thrombophlebitis is on average 1/3000 to 1/10000 births, but recently the number of cases recognized seems higher partly because of the more widespread knowledge of the variability of different forms of clinical presentations of cerebral venous thrombosis allowing a diagnosis, and on the other hand the wider use of imaging means more and more effective, in particular MRI. The objective of this study is to describe the epidemiological, clinical, paraclinical, therapeutic and evolutionary gravido -puerperal cerebral thrombophlebitis.

The objective of this investigation was to analyse soccer player’s perception of coaching behavior in Timor-Leste, comparing coaching experience (experienced vs inexperienced coaches) and age-categories (under-10 vs under-14 male). Data was collected using the Coach Behavior Assessment System questionnaire. Two experienced coaches and three inexperienced coaches from five different soccer clubs were subjects of the investigation. Seventy-five under-10 and one hundred and forty-two under-14 players responded the questionnaire. A Kruskal-Wallis test was completed to evaluate differences between the two scenarios. Statistical differences were observed in inexperienced coaches for mistakes/errors and misbehaviors as rated by the players, and in experienced coaches for general technical instruction. Under-14 players revealed significantly higher scores to the opposing age group for all spontaneous behaviors and for positive reinforcement, mistake-contingent encouragement, and mistake-contingent technical instruction, while Under-10s rated higher behaviors for keeping control. Timorese’s soccer coaches should promote a positive and reinforced training environment that can be focused on player’s progress. It is recommended a more holistic approach to coach educational programs.

Tax compliance in Indonesia is very important because taxes are the main contribution to state revenue, so an increase in tax revenue is needed. Efforts made by the government throughout the law on the harmonization of tax regulations with the Voluntary Disclosure Program (VDP). This research aims to find empirical evidence of the influence of external factors on taxpayer compliance to follow VDP. The research was conducted using a survey method (questionnaire) for individual taxpayers throughout DKI Jakarta and a total of 335 samples (40,9% VDP participants and 59,1% VDP non-participants) were collected using non-probability sampling and purposive sampling techniques. The data is evaluated using the Smart PLS 4.0 Software. The results of this research indicate that tax audits and tax sanctions have a significant positive effect on VDP, while the quality of tax services has no significant effect on VDP. Tax audits and VDP have a significant positive effect on tax compliance, while tax sanctions and the quality of tax services have no significant effect on tax compliance. Tax audits and tax sanctions mediated by VDP have a significant positive effect on tax compliance, while the quality of tax services mediated by VDP has no significant effect on tax compliance. Every increase in tax audits and tax sanctions can increase taxpayers to follow VDP, while every increase in the quality of tax services cannot increase taxpayers to follow VDP. Every increase in tax audits and VDP can increase tax compliance, while every increase in tax sanctions and the quality of tax services cannot increase tax compliance. Every increase in tax audits and tax sanctions in VDP mediation can increase tax compliance, while every increase in the quality of tax services in VDP mediation cannot increase tax compliance.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a rare sarcoma, typically starts in the cells that line the gastrointestinal tract’s (GIT) wall. While certain GISTs may develop slowly over time, others might spread drastically. However, it will indicate recurrence for certain people. Patients with locally resectable gastro intestinal stromal tumours continue to be treated primarily with radical surgery, which, in more than 50% of instances, results in a long-term remission of this disease. The first targeted medication for the GISTs treatment was the tyrosine kinase inhibitor imatinib, and is now the preferred option for treating advanced gastro intestinal stromal tumours. This case highlights recurrence of GIST for two times even after laparotomy which provides an information, that the hazards associated with this type of tumour must be reduced by receiving appropriate therapy because it can recur.

The aims of this research are to analyze the weaknesses that exist in evidentiary regulations in civil courts and how to reconstruct evidentiary constraints in civil justice based on the value of justice. This research uses a constructivist paradigm, with a social legal research approach that uses primary data. Methods of data collection using interviews, observation, and field systems. The results of this research show that in evidentiary regulations in civil courts in Indonesia, judges are bound by valid evidence, which means that judges are only allowed to make decisions (impose decisions) based on evidence determined by law only, and From a formal juridical point of view, electronic document law has not been strictly regulated in the Civil Procedure Code so that it has not had the value of justice, namely the normalization of Articles 163 and 164 HIR and Articles 283 and 284 RBg., has not provided justice values in the evidentiary system. Current weaknesses in evidentiary regulations in civil court include weaknesses in the context of legal substance, legal structure, and legal culture, therefore it is necessary to reconstruct the provisions in Article 164 HIR or 284 RBg with the need for arrangements regarding electronic evidence, which has been validated and the strength is the same as documentary evidence. Then in Article 163 HIR/Article 283 RBg there needs to be an arrangement so that Electronic Information and Electronic Documents submitted by litigants must come from an Electronic System that meets the requirements based on Legislation In contrast, where the implication is to provide a new idea related to evidentiary regulations in civil courts based on the value of justice.

DOI: 10.36348/sijll.2023.v06i08.004
The study is premised upon the enormity and relevance of African myths and legends as congenial substance for the continuity of African culture and writing tradition. Existing literary engagements have focused on the usage of myths and legends in African literature, their consistent usage in fictional writings is aesthetically commendable, however, the modern days African writers appear to be delusive in this literary endeavor. This is the lacuna this paper seeks to fill by advocating for the reinventing and entrenching of mythical and legendary characters in contemporary and future African writings. The paper investigates the extent of import, inculcation and exploration of myths and legends in some extant African writings, it pontificates their literary aestheticism, cultural beautification and prognostic values in African society. Significantly, the paper elucidates the pedagogical didactics that are intrinsically inherent in the myths and legends in spite of the seemingly archaic existence attributed to them. African writers that have creatively used mythical and legendary sources are highly commended and appreciated and passionate appeals have been made through this paper to the contemporary and future African writers to effectuate the representation and entrenchment of the continental cultural myths and legends in subsequent creative writing for the purpose of cultural integration and propagation, rejuvenation of cultural material and dispersal of moral values.

Our judicial structure owes to the colonial administration for its evolution & is still bearing the remnants of the system it inherited from its predecessor. Our judiciary is still following the adversarial trial system. Though the British legal system has developed to a standard for others we are still on the same footing where they left us. We could not overcome the obstacles associated with the civil justice system. The main problems facing our judiciary are the cost, delay & complexity. Several steps have been taken to solve the problems but deserved success cannot be achieved. The main problem lies probably in the identification of the real problems & providing pragmatic solutions. In this research I have tried to identify the real problems by interviewing different legal persons & litigants, by analyzing the opinions of different scholars & taking into account the attitude of the society towards the civil litigation social aspects & applying my own reason & experience. I have evaluated the reforms made in some foreign legal systems to compare with our system specially the Woolf’s reform in England. Lastly, I have provided some reform & amendment proposals based on the findings.

Worldwide e-learning has emerged as a leading channel of learning but its implementation in Kenya has not been successful. Studies have noted infrastructural challenges in implementation of e-learning, an aspect the present study sought to address. The study determined infrastructural factors that influence implementation of e-learning in TVET institutions in Uasin Gishu County. The study established the extent to which the following factors affect the effective implementation: the availability of good bandwidth; quick response time in uploading and retrieving content; fast processors; high performance features on the servers; accessibility of learning management system and the availability of electronic learning equipment. The study was guided by Roger’s theory of Diffusion of innovation and adopted an explanatory research design with a target population of 94 electrical and electronic engineering trainers and 6 HoDs of electrical and electronic engineering departments from public TVET institutions from Uasin Gishu County. Data was collected by use of questionnaire, observation and interview schedule. The piloting of the tools was done in Kitale National Polytechnic to test for reliability and validity. Quantitative data was analyzed by use of both inferential and descriptive statistics using SPSS version 25 while qualitative data using themes and sub-themes. The inferential statistics used included: simple and multiple regression, Pearson’s correlation and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) while descriptive statistics included mean, standard deviation and frequencies. From the findings, the coefficient of determination (R square) of .449 indicated that the model explained only 44.9% of the variation or change in implementation of e-learning. The study findings indicate that infrastructure (t =2.589, P<.05), significantly influence the implementation of e-learning in TVET institutions in Uasin Gishu County and it is therefore important for TVET institutions to consider strengthening the infrastructure requirements for e-learning.

Leakages in pipeline is an important problem that can occur at any stage of the pipeline lifespan due to ageing, improper installation, or human related factors like bunkering or vandalization. Several invasive and non-invasive techniques are being used which have proven to be successful. However, this study focuses on leakage in an area of the pipeline network that is most often overlooked. This area is within the first 100 meters of the pipeline network to the excitation pump and is often prone to leakages due to high pressure. This study shows that even at no leak conditions pressure profile of a short pipeline in a closed loop configuration can vary by as much 59.93 percent. The study also examined the impact of single leak, double leaks, and triple leaks on the pipeline network with pressure loss compared to the no leak condition ranging from about 10 percent to as high as 60 percent.
