Background: De Quervain's thyroiditis is an inflammatory thyroid disorder. The new coronavirus is incriminated as the causative agent. Aims: We describe two cases of subacute thyroiditis, the first is linked to covid-19 infection, and the second is secondary to the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Methods: A 48-year-old female, presented with severe anterior neck pain, and thyroid dysfunction; the thyroid ultrasound showed an enlarged gland, with external hypoechoic areas. The RT-PCR was positive, the patient was treated according to the protocol of covid-19. A 49-year-old female, consulted for intense neck pain, one month after receiving the first dose of vaccination (Astrazeneca); the cervical ultrasound showed an external hypoechoic areas. Results: In first case, neck pain and other signs disappeared in one week. In second case, neck pain disappeared within two weeks. Conclusion: Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of thyroiditis in patients infected with Sars-COV-2.

Oral cancer considered one of the most 10 cancer among world population [1]. In the period between 1995- 2015 Saudi cancers registries detect 172,424 cancer cases, 3184 were oral cancer cases. 1.5 Per 100000 for female population and 1.4 per 100000 among male population, the majority of cases are from jazan region [2, 3]. The aim of this review is to explain the basic and essential aspects of oral cancer focusing on squamous cell carcinoma , starting from its definition to epidemiology in Saudi Arabia as well world wild as well addressing carcinogenesis , potential malignant diseases , and premalignant lesions. As oral cancer is preventable disease, prevention will be addressed as well.

This study moderates firm characteristics with key monetary variables (inflation rate and exchange rate) and examine their effect on the financial performance of fifteen (15) listed consumer goods manufacturing firms in Nigeria using an annual panel dataset from 2004 to 2020. The dependent variable (financial performance) is measured as return on assets while the independent variables are capital structure, dividend policy, managerial efficiency and firm size. In addition, the study used fixed and random effects regressions as techniques of data analysis. The results of this study are categorized into two parts namely; regression results without moderators and regression results with moderators (inflation and exchange rate). The result from the model without moderators shows that there is a positive and statistically relationship between capital structure, managerial efficiency and firm size and financial performance while dividend policy has no significant effect on financial performance. However, the results moderated with both the inflation and exchange rate indicate that capital structure and firm size have a significant negative effect on financial performance while dividend policy and managerial efficiency have a significant positive effect on financial performance. Thus, this study recommends the need for an increase in both dividend policy and managerial efficiency and limiting the increase in capital structure and firm size since they adversely affect financial performance. Finally, there is a need for consumer goods manufacturing firms to put into consideration the trends in monetary variables before making any investment decision.

Currently, both job stress and presenteeism are critical problems. Job stress carries enormous costs for healthcare workers and nurses in terms of overall wellbeing, presenteeism, and turnover, which in turn affect the quality of patient healthcare services. The objectives of this research were to uncover the extent of presenteeism and job stress among nurses in hospitals in Hafr Al-Batin, a city in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. A descriptive, correlational, cross-sectional study was conducted. The study sample included 146 nurses working in Hafr Al-Batin hospitals. Data were collected from May to June 2020. For analysis, the researcher used two tools, the Expanded Nursing Stress Scale (ENSS) and the Stanford Presenteeism Scale-6 (SPS-6). The data was subsequently analyzed by descriptive statistics and Spearman’s correlation coefficient. Study results showed that the mean values of job stress and presenteeism were both high. Furthermore, there was a relationship between the overall presenteeism and overall job stress experienced among staff nurses. The results of this research would aid both nursing administrators and hospital managers in designing effective strategies to reduce job stress and manage presenteeism among staff nurses in the hospitals of Hafr Al-Batin.

The new SARS-CoV-2 virus has become a worldwide emergency. It is recognized as a multiorgan disease and post-acute sequalae are seen in many systems. Many oral symptoms have been reported in relation to COVID-19. Cause- effect relationship between coronavirus and the appearance of such oral lesions still cannot be established. Immunosuppression state of positive cases could explain appearance of oral lesions. Oral hygiene is an aspect that should not be left aside, and it is of great importance to encourage the patient to reinforce hygiene techniques.

This article discusses the factors that cause the State Administration Agency or Official (TUN Agency or Official) unable to realize a PTUN decision execution that is in accordance with the Pancasila Justice Value currently; and how to reconstruct the execution regulations of the PTUN decisions based on the values of Pancasila justice In a study using the constructivism paradigm and the method of the socio-legal research approach. The data sources in this study consist of primary data sources and secondary data sources consisting of primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials related to the analysis of qualitative descriptive data. The results of the discussion show that the weaknesses that cause the State Administration Agency or Official (TUN Agency or Official) unable to realize a PTUN decision execution that is in accordance with the Pancasila Justice Value currently include 4 things, namely: (1) low compliance and legal awareness of the State Administration Agency or Official; (2) low legal compliance and awareness of the community; (3) the existence of the interests of state administration officials; and (4) there is an error in vision in the use of the authority of his position. Then, the Reconstruction of this regulation is as follows: paragraph (3) regarding the grace period for submitting an application for execution; Paragraph (4) regarding forced efforts, administrative sanctions are emphasized in the form of disciplinary action on dismissal from office; the addition of paragraph (5), regarding the synergy of the implementation of the decision; the addition of paragraph (6) regarding the contempt of court for officials and related parties who do not comply with the decision; paragraph (7) changes regarding hierarchical execution, to execution carried out by an executing agency; paragraph (7) is old, deleted because it is no longer using forced money, and administrative sanctions have been regulated in paragraph (4).

This work interrogates the seeming ambivalence between Arthur Schopenhauer's existentialist pessimism and his advocacy for artistic, moral and ascetic forms of awareness, as means of managing the absurdities and frustrations of life. The objective of this work is to discover whether or not his apparently orthogonal positions can be reconciled in any way at all, and what that might portend for the contemporary philosopher. Schopenhauer's metaphysics and philosophy of nature led him to the doctrine of pessimism: the view that sentient beings, with few exceptions, are bound to strive and suffer greatly, all without any ultimate purpose or justification and thus life is not really worth living. Arthur Schopenhauer was among the first 19th century philosophers to contend that at its core, the universe is not a rational place. Inspired by Plato and Kant, both of whom regarded the world as being more amenable to reason, Schopenhauer developed their philosophies into an instinct-recognizing and ultimately ascetic outlook, emphasizing that in the face of a world filled with endless strife, we ought to minimize our natural desires for the sake of achieving a more tranquil frame of mind and a disposition towards universal beneficence. Often considered to be a thoroughgoing pessimist, Schopenhauer in fact advocated ways to overcome a frustration-filled and fundamentally painful human condition. He believed that the "will-to-life" (the force driving man to survive and to reproduce) was the driving forces of the world, and that the pursuit of happiness, love and intellectual satisfaction was essentially futile and anyway secondary to the innate imperative of procreation. This essay argues that phenomenologically, Schopenhauer had an “existentialist” orientation towards the spatio-temporal world that informed his pessimism, but also engenders further questions regarding the actual sincerity of his mental commitment to such a position.

Due to its ambiguous nature, culture is one of the most difficult human phenomenons to define. Sociologists and Linguists are continuously expanding the aspects of what constitutes culture in an effort to understand how our individual identities can coexist as simultaneous members of a global community. This paper analysed various theories and literature in relation to the concept of culture in an effort to determine the effect it has on English as a second language (ESL) students. It discovered that although spoken and written discourse is integral to succeeding in a community, there are several non-linguistic methods of communication that can help ESL students to participate and become accepted members of their chosen second language society. This paper also compared the differences between individual and collective cultures and the social and environmental impact they can have on its participants.

Translation of poetry has always been a difficult problem. Questions like what form to adopt, whether to retain the original structure, how to choose words, etc. have long confused numerous experts and translators. The text type theory proposed by German translation theorist Katrina Rice believes that poetry, a typical expressive type, should be translated as faithfully as possible to the original text, and this theory provides a theoretical basis for translators to choose a better translation strategy. This paper takes The Poems of Emily Dickinson translated by Zhou Jianxin as an example to analyze the application of text type theory in poetry translation. The translation has high faithfulness to the original text, including not only the form and the meaning of the poem, but also its aesthetic features and the personal style of the poet, which is a good sample of the application of text type theory. It provides a reference for subsequent translators to translate poetry, and also shows a practical path for translations of foreign poetry.

This work is expository, analytic, critical and evaluative in its methodology. Admittedly, both thinkers were dualists. But, where Descartes turned out to be a dualist in the stronger sense, Husserl had brought the Ego closer to the objects it perceives, constituting them through intentionality. More specifically, through h the intertwinement between the intentional act and the intentional object. The goal of Descartes’ method was to arrive at an inconcussum quid, at something which cannot be subjected to doubt: his own existence as a thinking substance, in addition to the proof(s) of the existence of God. So, he methodically doubted all the things he had been certain about, in order to reaffirm their existence. Husserl’s method, on the other hand, employs what is sometimes seen as a twofold approach: phenomenological ἐποχή, (epoche) or “suspension of belief,” and phenomenological reduction. Husserl’s main philosophical problem had nothing to do with being certain about reality. He understood our certitude about reality as a basic fact of our everyday experience, as something to be taken at face value. Therefore, he did not need to doubt whether reality is as it seems to be, or even exists at all. Although there are many ways to explain Husserl’s main issue, but to take the epistemological route, the one he took in his first public communication on this topic, The idea of phenomenology, it pertains to the manner in which exterior objectivity, as something whose existence transcends the subject, can reach an immanent subject.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome. It has been spreading rapidly worldwide, causing serious public health crisis. Although most SARS-CoV-2-infected cases have asymptomatic or mild-to-moderate diseases. This study was carried out to evaluate the prevalence of asymptomatic COVID-19 among Students of Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma. A total of 100 Students were recruited for this study (50 males and 50 females). Ages were from 16 years upwards. 5ml of blood was drawn from each subject, 3 ml into an EDTA while 2ml was dispensed into plane tube for Elisa test of COVID-19 antibody dictation. The sensitivity and specificity of the Elisa kits used were 94.36% and 100% respectively. The full blood count was determined using Sysmex KX 21 Haematology autoanalyzer). Results of this showed that 48% of the subjects tested positive for COVID-19 antibody, while 52% tested negative. The mean white blood cells of COVID-19 antibody positive and negative subjects revealed 5.61±1.79x10/9 and 5.30±1.37x109/l respectively. There were no significant statistical differences (p>0.05) in the white cell, Red cell indices of subjects positive for COVID-19 antibody when compared with those negative for COVID-19 antibody. Also result shows that those positive for COVID-19, their platelets revealed significant (<0.001) lower count 234.1 ±151.1 x109/l when compared with those who were negative (250.0±152.7 x109/l). The study concludes that lymphocytes, neutrophils and mixed cell counts studied were lower in subjects positive for COVID-19 antibody while total white blood cell count was higher in positive group (p>0.05). There was no significant difference (p>0.05) in the WBC, LYM, MXD and NEUT of the subjects with respect to age and sex.

Background: Reduction in physical activity, irrespective of the cause, as well as increase in the prevalence of sedentary behaviours are strongly associated with the development of some of the most serious health problems adults face such as , diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Consequently, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that adults should undertake regular physical activity. Many adults lack knowledge of the physical activity recommendations. The aim of the study is to determine the knowledge, attitude and physical activity level in post Covid- 19 lockdown among adult learners in South East Nigeria. Methods: The descriptive research design was adopted for the study. Researchers’ structured questionnaire on knowledge of, and attitude towards physical activities and the short form of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) were used to collect data. Results: Though the adult learners possess high level of knowledge of physical activities (64.10 %), majority do not know the physical activity recommendations by the WHO, while only 58.46% showed positive attitude towards physical activities. Physical activity level of the respondents as reported through the short form of the IPAQ showed that 54.87 % are low, 26.84 % are moderate while only 18.29 % has high physical activity level. Conclusion: The adult learners had high level of knowledge of physical activity, positive attitude towards physical activity. This did not translate to high level of physical activity. Public health awareness and health talks on the benefits of physical activities and WHO physical activity guidelines and recommendations should be mounted by the institutions.

This study's main goal is to evaluate the Janata Awash Program's implementation status in Rupandehi, Nepal, where the program is dispersed among 13 VDCs and 4 Municipalities (before readjustment of local level). Interviews and a questionnaire survey were undertaken with applicants for the program, local leaders, officers in charge of implementation, and the monitoring body in the study region with regard to selected, non-selected, completed, and unstarted construction. In the fiscal year 2073–1974 there were 2214 applicants, which appears to be a relatively high amount. Since there are so many of them and they live in diverse places, it would be foolish to assume that one strategy will work for all low-income groups' housing needs.

Rosuvastatin belongs to the HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor class of drugs (statins). The main aim of the present study was to formulate and evaluate time-controlled pulsatile release Rosuvastatin press-coated tablets. The core tablets were formulated by the Direct compression method. Coated tablets were formulated by the Press-coating technique. The drug delivery system was designed to deliver the drug at a specific time for the patient suffering from Hyperlipidemia. The core tablets containing Rosuvastatin, anhydrous lactose, and different ratios of super disintegrants like croscarmellose sodium, and sodium starch glycolate, among six core tablets were formulated, and they were evaluated for post-compression parameters like Weight variation, Thickness, Hardness, Friability, Disintegration, and In-vitro drug release profile, then the core was optimized by using different ratios of polymers such as Eudragit-S100, Eudragit-L100, and HPMC K4M, Ethyl Cellulose (1:2, 2:1 ratios). Totally four coating compositions were fixed and coated to core tablets by press-coating method, then they were evaluated for post-compression parameters like Weight variation, Hardness, Thickness, and In-vitro drug release studies were performed in 0.1 N HCl for 2 hrs, pH 6.8 phosphate buffer for 6 hrs and pH 7.4 phosphate buffer from the dissolution data the coat containing Eudragit-S100, Eudragit-L100 (2:1) combination shown best profile for pulsatile release of Rosuvastatin. The 10 hrs of lag time for the drug release and the drug release were depending on the effects of the composition of the polymers used.
