Introduction and Research Problem: The study aims to illustrate the role of language in depicting and representing identity in relation to different social classes. In the African American sitcom of the study at hand, different social classes of the same black community/race are represented in the portrayal of different characters, in term of their language use as well as other behavioral aspects. However, since social classes, apart from being socially structured, are the root source of so many different stereotypes. Materials and Methods: A sample is taken from the African American sitcome: The Fresh Prince of Bel Air. The reserchers has watched the whole six seasons periorly. However, for the matter of the study at hand, 15 episodes are selected specifically form the twenty-five episode long first season which specifically chosen because it includes the introduction and fundamental characteristics of each characters’ personality together with the role they play and the function they perform. Summary of Results: The portrayals of the characteristics of each character weight heavily on common stereotypes related to the social classes that characters belong to. Conclusion and Recommendations: Upon analyzing the behaviors of the main characters of the African American Sitcom, we come to the conclusion that, characters’ portrayals match the notions of such stereotypes. Yet, through the different acts of the characters, we realized, that different misconceptions of stereotyped images were revealed to be misconceived.

Plant based traditional health care is one of the ancient remedies used to prevent and treat different health related disorders. Due to increasing cost of medicine in the modern era, people are now moving towards the utilization of ancient ethno medicinal plants based remedies to prevent and treat diseases as well as to maintain their health. Curcuma longa, commonly known as turmeric has been used since ancient times as ethno medicinal plant due to its pharmacological and therapeutic potential. The rhizome of this plant is commonly used to prevent the lifestyle related disorders. Its biologically active components can also be extracted and utilized directly to enhance the efficacy. Purpose of this review is to highlight the importance of turmeric as it contains various biologically active components that are beneficial in prevention and treatment of various health related disorders. Turmeric has been demonstrated to exhibit anti-cancer, immunostimulant, skin protection, ulcer treating, anti-inflammatory, anti-malarial, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-viral, anti-parasitic, anti-hyperglycemic, anti-oxidant, anti-hyperlipidemic, hepatoprotective, renal protection and hematological parameters maintenance properties. There is no evidence of adverse effects of turmeric in literature.

A study was conducted to identify the challenges and opportunities faced by female employees in education institutions and how well the female employees can manage their professional life and personal life. Research is steered at one of the University in Sultanate of Oman. It is a descriptive study conducted to find the opinions of female employees towards work life balance at University in Oman. The population of the proposed research include all female teaching staff of the University (population is 83) by including all the departments (BSD, ELC, Engineering and IT). The sample size is 68 with (95% confidence level). To know the intentions and opinions of female employees a structured questionnaire is administered for collecting primary data. Stratified proportionate convenient sampling method is used to collect data from female teaching employees of the University. Parametric test ANOVA is used for analysis. A one-way ANOVA was conducted to compare the opinions of female employees towards work environment. The employees’ targets that create tension shown a statistically significant difference among four departments. The employees’ responsibility at work create stress shown a statistically significant difference among four departments. The employees not able to spare time for research activities shown a statistically significant difference was found among four departments. It is observed that there is a difference of opinion among female employees of the university towards work environment. Similarly, there is a difference of opinion among female employees of the university towards home environment (family) and regarding work life balance among four departments. Post-Hoc test was conducted to know the actual difference of their opinions with reference to other departments and found that IT and engineering has a difference of opinion regarding work life balance. Hence, we can say that some female employees are not comfortable with work life balance at the University.

Background: Hypertension and Diabetes Mellitus, the most frequent co-morbidities in SARS-Cov-2 patients are considered as risk factors for disease severity and mortality. And the role of inflammatory biomarkers on these patients is still under evaluation. Methods: Retrospective data was collected study in 3 independent groups each with 24 patients: diabetes, hypertension and with concomitant diabetes and hypertension respectively of critically ill SARS-CoV-2 patients admitted in the CCM. The data of age, gender, diabetic and hypertensive history, inflammatory marker, duration of stay was obtained from electronic patient data repository of the hospital and compared with Mortality. Results: The mean CRP levels in diabetes was 78.81 ± 16.8, in hypertension 82.23 ± 13.98 and in group with both the co morbidities was 79.05 ± 16.38. Serum ferritin levels were high in hypertensive group 731 ± 621.12, were as in diabetes population it was 560.31 ± 319.81, and 629.37 ± 350.8 in both diabetic and hypertensive population. The mean and SD of D-dimer it was 3726.4 ± 2411.86 in diabetic group, 2861.28 ± 2041.36 in hypertensive group and 2755.6 ± 1980.67. CRP levels and D-dimer were positively correlated with mortality and duration of stay. Conclusion: Our study concluded inflammatory markers CRP and D-dimer levels were elevated in both comorbid patients and this was statistically significant. Correlation of ferritin to the outcome was not significant and understanding the molecular mechanism of infection in co-morbid patients and assessing the inflammatory markers can provide necessary assistance at earliest, for a better clinical outcome.

Both classical liberalism and keynesianism play an important role in human economic history. There are some relevant research results interpreted the two together. However, the differences between the two are the focus of previous scholars, therefore, the research on the similarities and connections between the two is ignored, or the two are completely opposite. Reinterpretation of the general theory focuses on discovering the relationship between tradition and innovation, giving people new understanding and enlightenment.

The surinfection of the renal graft by multi-resistant germs constitutes a serious complication, which can engage the functional and vital prognosis in renal transplant patients. It is responsible for a problem of therapeutic management and of the benefit/risk ratio between antibiotic therapy at therapeutic doses and the contraindications linked to renal insufficiency and therapeutic impasse. This work reports the case of a kidney transplant recipient who died following complications of a superinfection of the graft by a strain of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing OXA 48. The purpose of this observation is to underline the nosocomial risk in kidney transplant patients and the difficulty of the therapeutic management of these multi-resistant infections.

Analytical studies were conducted on force transfer mechanism of retrofitted anchorage system in structural concrete by Strut-and-Tie modeling (STM). Post Installation of Headed anchorage (PIHA) as supplementary system introduced for implicit strengthening of anchorage system. The boundaries of STM are considered under direct tension pull-out test. Five different configurations of conventional reinforcement anchorage in concrete with straight bar, 90-degree bend, 180-degree hook, single head and double head bars are retrofitted by using PIHA technique. The mechanics of force transfer in anchorage system was analyzed by STM and validated the results by experimental program. The study parameters considered are (i) location of nodal zone, (ii) strut angle, (iii) size of strut (concrete) contributed during failure. The study variables are (i) configuration of anchorage system (ii) characteristic node formation and (iii) presence of supplementary reinforcement. The result shows good agreement with experimental findings against failure mode, stress pattern, and location of critical zone in conventional and retrofitted anchorage system. Use of this study may further extended to assess theoretical evaluation of failure mode, formation of critical section and stressed regions of discrete RC elements such as corbel projection, bracket connections and beam-column joints.

Ever since the Covid-19 pandemic broke out, numerous studies have shown up investigating the negative ramifications of this crisis for university students, who are considered to be a vulnerable population. So far, however, the positive consequences of the pandemic for university students as well as how the crisis may have impacted young people’s resilience have not been explored. Unlike previously published research on the topic, this small case study attempted to explore any university students’ views regarding how the Covid-19 pandemic affected them and how they tried to mitigate the pandemic’s effects. To allow participants to freely express themselves, their written texts about the topic were used as a research tool, whereas qualitative content analysis was used as a research method. Eighty-seven undergraduate students took part voluntarily in the research. Findings indicated that the pandemic has greatly and negatively affected the students’ emotional, psychological, and mental state, who experienced mainly fear and anxiety. At the same time, however, they received valuable lessons for life, realizing that nothing is a given and that they must live life to the fullest. In parallel with experiencing the alienation from their social environment and their psychological fatigue; the participants, due to their isolation, turned to themselves, revised things, and evolved personally, increasing also their resilience to difficult conditions. Although the students did not mention extensively to have employed coping strategies, those strategies mentioned were constructive. The research findings are discussed in terms of their implications regarding students’ support in the educational process and generally their support by universities after the health crisis.

In this way, this study has drawn a conclusion that the documentary editors use picture language to create a responsible, friendly, and also dignified national image of China, to describe the emotional state of the masses in China in the process of COVID-19, and to achieve the purpose of conveying emotions and shaping positive national image through different aspects.

This article compares social learning outcomes of homeschooled and traditionally schooled children under the Accelerated Christian Education Curriculum (ACE). The comparison is done by looking at the social skills constructs of persistence, self–control and social competences. This study adopted the comparative research design, targeting children under the Accelerated Christian Education. 426 children were sampled, with 272 participating Questionnaires were used to collect data on the three constructs. From the computation of children Independent sample t-test, it was revealed that there were no significant differences between the homeschooled and traditionally schooled children as perceived by the children, parents and teachers on the three Social constructs. Consequently it was noted children, parents and teachers received home schooling as effective in developing children persistence, self-control and social competence learning outcomes. It was also demonstrated that acquiring these social skills was independent of home and traditional schooling. Hence it meant home school was equally effective in nurturing the social skills required for children to fit well in society. Though further studies needed to be done to test the robustness of these findings when other variable are added to the model.
