ABSTRACT: Diabetic foot is one of the complications caused by Diabetes Mellitus, which leads to severe damage to the patient, such as chronic wounds, infections, and in some cases, even foot amputation. Among complementary treatment modalities, vascular systemic photobiomodulation of the Intravascular Laser Irradiation of Blood (ILIB) type stands out, which has systemic effects that may contribute to improvements in cases of diabetic foot. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of ILIB on blood pressure, capillary blood glucose, pain level, and oxygen saturation in individuals with diabetic foot. This is a longitudinal study with a quantitative.....

ABSTRACT: This paper examines the potential of bilingual and multilingual medium of instruction (MOI) policy as a solution for creating an inclusive learning environment in Nigeria. With over 250 ethnic languages and a complex linguistic diversity, Nigeria's education system faces significant challenges in providing equal access to quality education for all students. The dominant use of English as the sole MOI has resulted in a linguistic barrier, marginalizing mother-tongue speakers and perpetuating educational inequalities. This research argues that a well-implemented bilingual and multilingual MOI policy can address these challenges by promoting linguistic diversity and.....

ABSTRACT: Management of solid waste has become a national issue because of the nuisance created by solid waste generated from commercial activities. Each year, over 5.2 million people (including up to 4 million children) have been reported to die from waste related diseases. Given the lack of data, this study isolates and characterizes bacteria from different dumpsites in Keffi metropolis, and determines their susceptibility pattern to some antibiotics. Soil samples were collected from various dumpsites and adjacent control sites. The bacterial load counts for the various dumpsites and the adjacent control sites were counted using Mise and Misra serial dilution method. Aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria were isolated from various dumpsite samples using five......
