The work presented in this paper focuses on formulating the development of time-dependent electromagneticfield laws through the application of Gauss’s divergence theorem. The first part of the discussion looks at thebasic ideas of electromagnetism. It focuses on how classical formulations of the laws of electromagnetism can beadapted to account for non-stationary conditions, especially regarding magnetic fluids that don’t conduct elec-tricity. It is suggested that employing Gauss’s divergence theorem could help improve the computational analysisof these generalized equations, which would make them more useful in magnetic fluid dynamics. The paperexamines the intricate interactions between non-conductive particles and conductive fluids under magneticfields. By putting these interactions into a single theoretical framework, this work aims to help us understandnon-stationary electromagnetic phenomena and how they affect many different scientific and engineering fields.The concluding section of the study examines the prospective practical applications of these extended equations.They could enable the development of more advanced electromagnetic devices and systems. Creating a strong setof analytical tools that can find new scientific paths and useful applications is the main goal of the study,particularly in the areas of electromagnetic induction and fluid dynamics. This research offers potential forsubstantial progress in both theoretical comprehension and technological advancement, The proposed method isapplicable to real-world systems such as ferrofluid-based cooling, magnetic dampers, plasma generators, andsmart electromagnetic devices. These applications demonstrate the practical benefits of coupling field behaviorwith boundary dynamics using Gauss’s theorem.

Abstract: Food insecurity in peri-urban areas is exacerbated by high living costs, limited access tohealthy food, and economic inequality. Despite its growing prevalence due to factors like land lossfrom urban expansion, food insecurity has received limited attention. In Ethiopia, drastic urbanizationcreates competition for land between agriculture and urban development, which is becoming extremein peri-urban areas., This study aims to assess the impact of urban expansion on food security amongexpropriated peri-urban households in Ethiopia. Using a calorie intake-based food security line, wecategorize respondents as food-secure or -insecure. The research analyzed data from 350 expropriatedperi-urban households through a structured questionnaire, employing descriptive statistics andbinary logistic regression. About 67% of the respondents were classified as food-insecure. The binarylogit model identified several significant determinants of food security, including compensationamount and type, household head demographics, agricultural land rent participation, irrigationand credit access, off-farm income, and organic fertilizer use. To address food insecurity amongexpropriated households, policymakers must prioritize these factors. Government attention andpolicy consideration are crucial to ensure the well-being of these vulnerable populations.Keywords: urban expansion; food insecurity; calorie intake; expropriation; Ethiopia

Evidence shows that financial inclusion plays a key role in driving economic growth and social development by strengthen-ing the financial system and reducing poverty and income inequality. However, its impact on the financial performance ofbanks remains inconclusive. This paper explores the relationship between financial inclusion and the financial performanceof commercial banks in Ethiopia, using a sample of 16 banks. We analyse 10 years of data (2013–2022) collected manuallyfrom the National Bank of Ethiopia (NBE) and the annual reports of commercial banks. A two-step system GeneralizedMethod of Moments (GMM) is employed, alongside other linear panel data model estimators. The findings reveal that in-creased financial inclusion has a significant positive impact on the financial performance (ROA and ROE) of commercialbanks in Ethiopia. The GMM estimation result also shows that bank performance indicators (ROA and ROE) are positivelyassociated with their past realizations. Regarding bank-specific control variables, the cost-efficiency ratio has a significantnegative impact on bank profitability. The study recommends that banks improve accessibility by expanding branch net-works and ATMs and by offering innovative financial products to enhance profitability.Keywords: financial inclusion, GMM, bank performance, Ethiopia

Introduction Functional disability in older adults refers to difficulties in performing daily activities. It is usuallyevaluated based on an individual’s ability to carry out basic activities of daily living and instrumental activities of dailyliving. Although existing studies provide valuable insights, comprehensive global data on functional disability inbasic and instrumental activities of daily living among older adults remain limited. This study aims to review existingresearch worldwide to estimate the overall pooled prevalence of functional disability in these areas.Methods Systematic searches were conducted across EMBASE, Scopus, PubMed/MEDLINE, and Google Scholar fromMay 5 to July 11, 2024. Cross-sectional studies worldwide on functional disability in basic and instrumental activitiesof daily living among adults aged 60 and older, published in English up to July 11, 2024 were included. Studies wereexcluded if they did not report the outcomes of interest, were inaccessible, case reports, low quality, review articles,or published in languages other than English. Data extraction and cleaning were performed using Microsoft Excel,and STATA version 17 was used to compute the pooled effect size with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for functionaldisability in both basic activities of daily living and instrumental activities of daily living among older adults. Toderive these estimates, we used weighted averages, where each study’s prevalence was weighted by the inverse ofits variance. Study heterogeneity was assessed using the Cochrane I² statistic and its associated p-value. Subgroupanalysis and meta-regression were conducted to identify sources of heterogeneity. Sensitivity analysis was used toevaluate the impact of individual studies on the overall results. Publication bias was assessed with Egger’s test andfunnel plots, and was addressed through trim-and-fill analysis.Results This review includes 35 studies with a total of 133,827 participants. The pooled prevalence of functionaldisability in basic activities of daily living was estimated at 26.07% (95% CI: 19.04–32.74), while on instrumentalactivities of daily living, it was estimated at 45.15% (95% CI: 36.02–54.29). After applying the trim-and-fill method,the adjusted overall prevalence of disability in basic activities of daily living was 15.12%, (a 95% CI: 11.25–19.13%).
subgroup analysis showed highest prevalence in Africa (BADL: 42.91%, IADL: 69.34%) and lowest in Asia (BADL:19.15%, IADL: 32.66%). Participants aged 65 and above, those in institutional settings, and studies with smaller samplesizes tended to report higher levels of functional disability.Conclusions Nearly one-fourth of the study participants had functional disability related to basic activities of dailyliving, while about half experienced disability in instrumental activities of daily living. This emphasizes the needfor continued effort in improving the quality of life and support systems for individuals facing functional disability,particularly in instrumental activities.Keywords Basic activities of daily living, Functional disability, Instrumental activities of daily living, Older adults.

Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is vital for over a third of the global population but facessignificant production challenges due to limited adaptable varieties, poor management practices,and environmental factors. New wheat varieties often fail in unfamiliar environments, leading tocrop loss. To address this issue, a study was conducted to evaluate the adaptability, performance,and yield stability of recently released high-performing wheat varieties over two years (2020/2021 and 2021/2022) in four districts of the East Gujjar Zone: Machakel, Debre Elias, Gozamin,and Baso-Liben. The trials were set up using a randomized complete block design (RCBD) withthree replications, and data were collected on the main traits such as days to heading, maturity,plant height, tiller number, spike length, spikelet’s per spike, biomass, and grain yield. AMMI andGEE biplot analysis were used to study genotype by environmental interaction. The combinedanalysis of variance for grain yield showed highly significant effects (P < 0.001) due to genotype(4.98 %), environment (66.83 %), and genotype × environment interaction (31.96 %). Grainyield varied across the environments, ranging from 3.72 t ha 1in Baso-Liben to 3.11 t ha 1 inMachakel. Among the genotypes, Ogolcho had the highest mean yield (4.55 t ha 1), whereasWane had the lowest (2.70 t ha 1). Genotype-by-environment interaction biplot analysis groupedthe eight test environments and six genotypes into two mega-environments and three genotypegroups. Wane, Lemu, and Ogolcho were the stable genotypes. This analysis identified the mostfavorable districts for wheat production and highlighted Ogolcho as the most productive wheatvariety in the study area. The results suggest that farmers in these districts should adopt Ogolchoto enhance wheat yield and increase their income.

Chickpea is a self-pollinated, diploid, and annual plant (2x = 2n = 16). After peas and beans, it is the most important legumein the world. Reduced chickpea production and productivity have been significantly influenced by the lack of improvedand adaptable genotypes, poor management practices, biotic factors such as disease and pests, and abiotic factors includingfluctuating rainfall and temperature. New chickpea genotypes introduced in Northern Ethiopia lack adaptability, stability,and performance evaluation, resulting in crop losses for farmers due to their susceptibility to the new and variable environment. To address these challenges, recently released high-yielding genotypes, alongside a standard check, were evaluatedfor adaptability, performance, and yield stability over 2 years (2022/2023 and 2023/2024) in three districts (Shebel, Awabel,and, Jabitenan) of Northern Ethiopia across six multienvironment field trials each employing a randomized complete blockdesign with three replications. SAS 9.4 and R software were used, showing significant differences in crop phenological stages,growth, and yield parameters across years and locations for test traits. Genotype, location, and year interactions significantlyinfluenced all Kabuli chickpea genotypes. The highest combined mean grain yield was obtained from genotype “Arerti”(2.42 t ha-1) followed by “Yelbie” (2.18 t ha-1), which explained their best performance among the tested genotypes. Analysis ofvariance revealed significant interactions and differences between genotypes and environments, with 15.6% of the variationin grain yield attributed to environmental factors, 6.4% to genotype differences, and 11.4% to genotype-by-environment interactions. The Genotype and Genotype × Environment biplot and Additive Main Effect and Multiplicative Interaction analysisidentified stable genotypes, representative environments, and interesting genotype–environment interactions. GenotypesArerti, Chefe, and Yelbie were identified as stable based on Genotype and Genotype × Environment biplot and Additive MainEffect and Multiplicative Interaction analysis. Environments Shebel and Jabitenan were identified as representative amongall environments considered.

This study was aimed to formulate formal and non-formal Geez language revitalization strategies by specifically exploring indigenous teaching strategies, analyzing pedagogical interfaces and needs, and assessing practical off-class revitalization strategies. Exploratory Mixed methods design was utilized an experiential qualitative design complemented by descriptive assessment to explore participants' lived experiences and perceptions. The research participants were traditional church teachers teaching Geʽez integrating with religious contents in Reading, Qene, and Literature schools under Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church (EOTC) education system. Qualitative data were gathered through in-depth interview and video-supported observations, which were analyzed thematically. The study made use of Geez language professionals and practitioners from Bahir Dar and Debre Markos Universities to prioritize relevant non-formal revitalization strategies. Findings revealed that indigenous teaching uses some teacher-centered and more student-centered indigenous methods that converge and diverge with traditional and innovative pedagogies of designing, implementing and assessing Geez language. Irrespective of the delayed learning of comprehension and minimal use of functional communication, the indigenous methods church teachers used were generally more practical and effective, especially in areas such as Qene and literature schools resulting in quicker and accurate mastery of the language. The analysis of linguistic necessities and wants revealed that all skills with the emphasis of vocabulary, grammar, reading and speaking were prioritized. Integration into church schools, media, cultural events, and language nests wre selected as significant language revitalization strategies selected for both inside and outside of school settings. The study concluded that the productive indigenous methods of teaching Geʽez could complement modern language teaching pedagogies, addressing gaps in both approaches. It recommended that language professionals learn from indigenous practices and suggested that Geʽez teachers adapt these practices with modern pedagogical principles. Lastly, language program designers and educators were encouraged to reconsider effective pedagogical interfaces to address challenges in all aspects language teaching: design, implementation and assessment.

Introduction Nurse burnout negatively impacts patient care quality, safety, and outcomes, while harming nurses’mental health, job satisfaction, and retention. It also imposes financial burdens on healthcare organizations throughabsenteeism, reduced productivity, and higher turnover costs, highlighting the need for research to address thesechallenges. The umbrella review methodology was selected to integrate evidence from multiple systematic reviewsand meta-analyses, offering a broad and in-depth summary of existing research to guide practice and policy. Thisapproach equips stakeholders with a holistic understanding of the multifaceted impacts of nurse burnout, facilitatingthe design of effective interventions that support nurses, enhance healthcare delivery, and optimize patientoutcomes. Consequently, this umbrella review aims to evaluate the global prevalence and contributing factors ofnurse burnout.Methods This umbrella review included 14 systematic reviews and meta-analyses identified from various databases.The quality of each study was assessed using the Assessment of Multiple Systematic Reviews (AMSTAR II). Data wereextracted using Microsoft Excel and analyzed with STATA 17.0. Heterogeneity was measured using Higgin’s I2 Statistics,and summary prevalence estimates were calculated with the Der Simonian-Laird random-effects model. Meta-regression and subgroup analyses were conducted to identify the source of high heterogeneity. Publication bias wasassessed using funnel plots and Egger’s regression test, with the former providing a visual assessment of bias and thelatter offering a statistical method to detect asymmetry.Results The global prevalence of nurse burnout was evaluated in three areas: emotional exhaustion (33.45%, 95%CI 27.31–39.59), depersonalization (25.0%, 95% CI 17.17-33.00), and low personal accomplishment (33.49%, 95% CI28.43–38.55). Emotional exhaustion was most common among nurses working during the COVID-19 pandemic(39.23%, 95% CI 16.22–94.68). Oncology nurses experienced the highest rate of depersonalization (42%, 95% CI16.71–77.30), while nurses in intensive care units reported the highest rate of low personal accomplishment (46.02%,95% CI 43.83–48.28).
Conclusions Nurse burnout is prevalent worldwide, often marked by a sense of low personal accomplishment.Several factors contribute to this issue, including role conflict, negative emotions, family problems, moral distress,stress, commuting distance, predictability of work tasks, and workplace advancement.Keywords Nurse, Burnout, Determinant factors, And umbrella review

Introduction Depression and anxiety are prevalent psychological disorders that significantly affect physical,emotional, and social well-being, reducing quality of life and increasing medical costs. These issues are especiallychallenging for cancer survivors, complicating treatment management, affecting adherence, and potentiallyimpacting survival rates. Thus, this umbrella review aimed to evaluate the global prevalence of pain, depression, andanxiety, as well as their determinants among cancer patients.Method An exhaustive umbrella review was conducted to systematically assess the prevalence and determinants ofpain, depression, and anxiety among cancer survivors worldwide by analyzing systematic reviews and meta-analyses.The review involved a thorough search of multiple databases and included studies published in English up to July2024 that reported on these symptoms. The process involved screening and selecting studies based on specificcriteria, assessing the risk of bias using the AMSTAR tool, and analyzing data with statistical methods to determineoverall prevalence and identify predictors. This comprehensive approach aimed to provide a detailed understandingof these psychological issues in cancer survivors and guide future research and interventions.Result The global summary prevalence of depression among cancer survivors was 33.16% (95% CI 27.59–38.74),while anxiety had a prevalence of 30.55% (95% CI 24.04–37.06). Pain prevalence after treatment was 39.77% (95%CI 31.84–47.70). Before treatment, 65.22% (95% CI 62.86–67.57) of cancer patients reported pain, which persistedin 51.34% (95% CI 40.01–62.67) during treatment. The analysis also found that during the COVID-19 pandemic,depression and anxiety rates among cancer patients were at their highest, with prevalences of 43.25% (95% CI41.25–45.26) and 52.93% (95% CI 50.91–54.96), respectively.Conclusion The umbrella review found that depression and anxiety prevalence among cancer survivors was33.16% and 30.55%, respectively, with significantly higher rates during COVID-19 at 43.25% and 52.93%. Key factorscontributing to depression included poor social support, advanced cancer stage, and inadequate sleep, while anxietywas significantly linked to advanced cancer stage and poor sleep quality.

The use of metal nanoparticles as antibiotics for resistant pathogens has become a current topic of research. Biosyn-thesized nanoparticles are promising drugs as antibacterial agents by inhibiting bacteria from infectious diseases. Thisstudy aimed at the synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from AgNO 3 solution and Sida schim-periana Hochst. ex A. Rich leaves extract. The synthesized AgNPs were characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR),Ultraviolet–Visible (UV–Vis) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscopic techniques and evaluated for antibacterial activi-ties against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coliand Klebsiella Pneumonia) bacteria by the disc diffusion method. The result indicated an initial color change that wasobserved below 400 nm for the leaves extract and 429 nm for AgNPs in the UV–Vis band supporting the synthesis ofsilver nanoparticles. The FTIR peaks at 3447, 1638 and 1413 cm −1 predict the hydroxyl, carbonyl and unsaturated C–Cbonds, respectively, in the plant leaves extract. The XRD analysis showed that the synthesized AgNPs were crystalline innature and face-centered cubic (FCC) structure with an average particle size of 26.27 nm. Furthermore, the synthesizednanoparticles showed antimicrobial activity to both types of bacteria, more significant being on Gram-negative bacteria(E. coli). In conclusion, the leaves extract of Sida schimperiana Hochst. ex A. Rich plant contains bioactive molecules thatare used in the reduction and stabilization of AgNPs as potential antibacterial agents.Keywords: Biosynthesis · Phytochemicals · Antimicrobial resistance · Medicinal plant · Resistant pathogens
