ABSTRACT Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) remains one of the world's most significant public health concerns. Anti-retroviral treatment (ART) is meant to suppress replication of the virus, consequently improving health outcomes by improving immunity and delaying mortality. Despite policy interventions expanding antiretroviral treatment (ART) services rendering their provision in Kenyan public health facilities free, there exists limited data on survival outcomes in the ART program. Machakos...
Abstract: The researcher is a primary instrument in qualitative research. He/she is the key person in facilitating conversations during fieldwork and in making sense of the data. Methodological literature underscores the fact that assuming insider positions or identities during fieldwork aids qualitative researchers in achieving genuine collaboration, which is necessary for collecting trustworthy data. Furthermore, the contingency nature of positionality has been acknowledged sufficiently in ...
Abstract This research is an attempt to study the relationship between the Ghazzalian Lind Kantian thoughts on mysticism and intuition from an Islamic perspective. This study is intelligible when it is remembered that after Al-Ghazzali. mysticism in Islam was not the same again and even though. Kant was not a Mystic in the real sense of the word but his mystical notions appear similar to that of al-Ghazzali on many points especially on "mystical metaphysics. The study begins by tracing the co...
Abstract— The transformation and utilization of non-renewable energies involves irreversibility which makes our system less efficient. The environmental impact potential is equivalent to the work potential of the emissions. The irreversibility of inefficient systems has Global Warming Potential or environmental impact potential as wasted exergy is not always in equilibrium with the environment. Most literatures have either considered the optimization of thermodynamic systems for better effi...
Abstract: The South African post-apartheid Black youth—popularly known as the ‗Born Frees‘— have been stereotyped politically apathetic.

With the specific attention on Black students of the Mafikeng campus of North-West University, So...
