Financial inclusion is a crucial element of sustainability, especially in emerging economies with policies that entail providing equitable access to financial services for individuals and businesses to expand the opportunities for vulnerable individuals, small investment projects and diversify financial...

We numerically compute tables of zeroes and weights of Legendre polynomials Pn(x) correct to thirty-two decimal places for n = 2, 3, 4, …, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24, 32, 40, 48, 64, 80, and 96. These zeroes and weights are useful in Gaussian quadrature of arbitrary continuous functions over finite intervals....

This study investigates how indigenous storytelling, rooted in the cultural heritage of Edo State, Nigeria, influences the development of critical thinking skills among secondary school students in general education settings. Despite the rich oral traditions of Edo communities, no prior research has...

Facial expression classification plays a crucial role in human–computer interaction, particularly in the context of online education, which requires automatic emotion recognition. This study proposes a hybrid approach for facial expression classification by comparing two model architectures: Multilayer...

This study aims to investigate the role of social commerce construct (SCCs) in influencing emotional support, informational support, perceived usefulness, and perceived risk, which will increase trust in the buying process through TikTok s-commerce in Indonesia. This study was obtained by an online survey...

Media in teaching and learning languages keeps evolving for years. Parliamentary debate is a student-centered activity that integrates the four language skills and it promotes Communicative Language Teaching (CLT). Most parliamentary debate activity has been done in informal learning context, therefore...

Background: Migraine is associated with an increased risk for ischemic stroke and other cardiovascular (CV) events, including angina, myocardial infarction, and CV death. However, the mechanisms which link migraine to CV disease remain uncertain. In the present case-control study, we hypothesized that...

Objectives: To examine the role of physical activity in vascular stiffness and markers of adiposity and inflammation in “healthy” subjects. Methods: Seventy-nine (51 male & 28 female) healthy subjects were recruited. All were lifelong non-smokers, normotensive, normolipidaemic and normoglycaemic....

Introduction: Risk of a cardiovascular event is known to increase in the period immediately post-transplantation before returning to baseline or lower. We hypothesised that this might be due to changes in arterial stiffness and/or endothelial function. Methods: We measured aortic pulse wave velocity...

Objectives: Music has been correlated to cardiovascular health and used as additional therapy in patients with cardiovascular disease, however, few are known on the impact of music on arterial stiffness and central hemodynamics which are both predictors of cardiovascular risk. We investigated the effect...

Background: Arterial calcification is commonly observed in cardiovascular disease and is associated with increased arterial stiffness, systolic hypertension and adverse cardiovascular outcome. Arterial calcification is an actively regulated process with several stimulating and inhibiting factors. An...

Objective: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is characterised by obesity and a high prevalence of insulin resistance (IR) but this may not translate into increased cardiovascular events. The energy and timing of waves in large arteries may be quantified by separated wave analysis from wave intensity (WI)...

Introduction: Aortic stiffness is related to renal function in patients with chronic kidney disease and may contribute to the high cardiovascular mortality in this group. However, the relationship between renal function and arterial haemodynamics in the general population has not previously been reported. Methods:...

Aim: Ambulatory monitoring of central blood pressure (BP) is a new technique for evaluation of antihypertensive drugs efficacy. The aim of the study was to assess changes in ambulatory brachial and central BP after indapamide SR adjunction to treatment regimen in hypertensive patients. Methods: Indapamide...

Karst underground water is the foundation for meeting water needs for most people in the karst region. Therefore, its sustainability needs to be maintained properly through good management. Management of underground karst water really needs to pay attention to the characteristics of the user and environmental...

By assuming that an underlying Gaussian-Log Gaussian (GLG) random field clipped to yield binary spatial data, we propose a new model which provides flexibility in capturing the effects of heavy tail in latent variables. For our analysis, we adopt a Bayesian framework and develop a Markov chain Monte...
