Mentoring is typically carried out by faculty advisors at institutions and shown to be effective in different academic settings. For professional development and enhancing career skills, mentoring of students by alumni has rapidly gained traction, due to its effectiveness. Alumni mentoring is now an established best-practice at all the top universities globally and is being replicated across institutions. However, very few case studies on the implementation and effectiveness of Alumni Mentorship Programs exist in the Indian context. We present a case study on the formulation and implementation of an alumni mentoring program from a higher technical education institution at Jammu, India. A formal Alumni Mentoring Model supported by active intervention by institute personnel is proposed. The study indicates that alumni mentoring when implemented in a structured manner has significant positive impact on student outcomes in the medium and long-term. Quantitative and qualitative analysis of data from 56 student mentees and 10 alumni mentors over a one-year engagement period reveals interesting insights into mentor and mentee perceptions, experiences, quantum of improvement in student performance, challenges and areas for improvement.","PeriodicalId":39687,"journal":{"name":"JK Science","volume":"38 IS2","pages":"412-419"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://journaleet.in/index.php/jeet/article/download/2104/2048/2078","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147904288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recent studies highlight the gut microbiota’s role in T2DM, with modulation via diet or probiotics showing potential for glycemic control. Kudzu resistant starch (KRS) and Bifidobacterium adolescentis are promising interventions, but their combined effects remain unexplored. This study investigates the synergistic effects of KRS and Bifidobacterium adolescentis TH02767 on glycemic control. In vitro fecal fermentation showed that KRS significantly enriched Bifidobacterium levels. In a T2DM mouse model, both KRS and Bifidobacterium adolescentis TH02767 decreased fasting blood glucose levels and enhanced glucose tolerance individually, and their combined treatment exhibited significantly enhanced therapeutic effects. These findings suggest that KRS and Bifidobacterium adolescentis could be a valuable strategy for developing functional foods targeting T2DM management, warranting further exploration of mechanisms and clinical applications.

In this context, this paper follows a systematic review method and offers a critical approach. Grounded Theory was initially conceived to develop theories from empirical data, but these days, it includes heavily hybrid perspectives that add capabilities for interpretive praxis. In addition, processing large datasets with digital technologies has improved the complexity of analyzing data, which has a greater scope to capture and theorize within grounded methodology. The paper also discusses these evolutions and emphasizes that Grounded Theory has become diverse in both theory and practice, which calls for discovering and employing different tools and strategies. The paper concludes that a critical research gap exists in allowing truly universal, evidence-based theoretical models of grounded methods that can contribute to advanced social sciences research.","PeriodicalId":39687,"journal":{"name":"JK Science","volume":"2 3","pages":"129-139"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.nepjol.info/index.php/nprcjmr/article/download/76965/58919","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147898065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Unveiling the magnitude of submicroscopic parasitemia and gametocytaemia in different malaria endemic areas of Mainland Tanzania","authors":"Felista Mwingira","doi":"10.4314/thrb.v26i1.12","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4314/thrb.v26i1.12","url":null,"abstract":"Background: The prevalence of Plasmodium falciparum in community samples is one of the cornerstones for describing malaria transmission. Prevalence measurements greatly depend on the diagnostic techniques applied and can be biased and inaccurate when parasite densities are low since parasites often remain undetected by the routinely used diagnostic tool, light microscopy. Highly sensitive molecular tools can detect submicroscopic infections and can serve to evaluate the performance of diagnostic tools used in field surveys. The study investigated local differences in the prevalence of submicroscopic infections and gametocyte carriage at different sites of varying endemicity. It investigated age trends in the submicroscopic carriage of asexual parasites and gametocytes from Tanzanian communities.Methods: A community survey involved 1820 individuals from four regions of varying endemicity. Finger prick blood was collected by light microscopy, mRDT, and 18S rRNA qPCR for parasite detection. Gametocytes were detected by both light microscopy and qRT-PCR targeting transcripts of the gametocyte-specific expressed marker pfs25. Submicroscopic infections were those positive by qPCR but not by light microscopy.Results: P. falciparum prevalence by qPCR varied from 37% at the site of high endemicity to 0.6% at the site of low endemicity. Of these, 52.7% (174/330) of qPCR-positive samples were submicroscopic infections. The submicroscopic carriage did not show a clear relationship with endemicity patterns and was 73% (11/15) in low, 63% (5/8), in moderate, and 51.1% (156/305) in high endemic sites. Molecular-determined gametocyte prevalence at each location closely followed the asexual parasite prevalence. But most (96%; 277/288) of gametocyte carriers were submicroscopic.Conclusion: Molecular parasite detection revealed a high prevalence of submicroscopic carriage in Tanzania, particularly among adults. Submicroscopic infections were recorded in all endemic settings but were more prevalent in the high-endemic sites, where nearly half of the infections were not detected by routine light microscopy. Such data on submicroscopic parasitemia and gametocytemia from multiple sites within a country can help better assess the human infective reservoir for onward transmission and the relative contribution of asymptomatic populations to the ongoing malaria transmission.","PeriodicalId":39687,"journal":{"name":"JK Science","volume":"26 1","pages":"1680-1694"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147907314","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigates the performance impacts of AI integration in asset management using a ten-year panel (2015–2024) of institutional fund holdings derived from SEC Form 13F filings via Whalewisdom. Funds were classified as traditional or quantitative based on turnover and holdings concentration, serving as proxies for AI adoption. Literature review findings reveal that leading institutions such as JPMorgan and BlackRock leverage AI for alternative data analysis, risk oversight, and hybrid human–machine decision-making. Results show that quantitative funds consistently exhibited higher volatility and greater market sensitivity (beta), while both fund types saw declining downside-adjusted performance (Sortino ratio). Notably, Sortino ratios converged over time, suggesting narrowing differences in downside-risk efficiency. Alpha was persistently negative for quantitative funds, indicating limited excess returns beyond market exposure. Overall performance differences were negligible except during the onset of COVID-19, when quantitative funds briefly outperformed. These findings highlight AI’s dual role as both a source of adaptability and a driver of higher systemic risk, underscoring the importance of governance and transparency in its deployment.","PeriodicalId":39687,"journal":{"name":"JK Science","volume":"1 1","pages":"987-997"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://doi.org/10.70251/hyjr2348.35987997","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147887529","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a mixed-methods approach and the WHO Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) Matrix, the research analyzes outcomes across five key domains: health, education, livelihood, social participation, and empowerment. Data were collected from 120 SHG members and 30 non-members across three districts using structured questionnaires and focus group discussions. The findings reveal that SHG membership significantly enhances women's access to healthcare, literacy levels, household income, participation in community decision-making, and self-confidence. SHG members consistently outperformed non-members across all indicators, demonstrating the critical role these collectives play in reducing gender-based disparities and fostering inclusive development. The study further highlights the indirect benefits of SHGs, such as improved children’s education and greater freedom of mobility. However, challenges such as caste-based exclusion, limited access to markets, and dependency on external facilitators remain. The study concludes that SHGs are not only vehicles of financial inclusion but also strategic platforms for social transformation. Strengthening institutional support, improving training, and ensuring equity within SHGs are essential to sustaining their impact and replicating their success across other low-resource regions.","PeriodicalId":39687,"journal":{"name":"JK Science","volume":"10 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ijnrd.org/papers/IJNRD2505420.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147916394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, this learning process is not free from various linguistic problems that hinder its effectiveness. Students often face difficulties in understanding and using Arabic language correctly, which is influenced by differences in linguistic structures and characteristics between Arabic and their mother tongue. These problems include aspects of morphology, syntax, semantics and phonology, which require special attention so that learning Arabic can run more effectively. This research aims to create a concept map of current linguistic problems in Arabic language learning that occur in Indonesia in the 2019-2023 period. Using a systematic literature review method, this research examines various relevant studies and scientific articles in order to identify and analyze linguistic problems that arise in Arabic language learning at primary, middle and high school and even university levels. The results of this research produce a concept map of linguistic problems which are divided into four main areas: morphology, syntax, semantics and phonology. It is hoped that the concept map resulting from this research can become the basis for more effective learning development strategies and can help educators overcome linguistic problems faced in learning Arabic in Indonesia.","PeriodicalId":39687,"journal":{"name":"JK Science","volume":"1 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://journal.pppbai.or.id/index.php/arabiyati/article/download/133/23","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147912687","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
