Patronage, Psychology and Performance of the Public Enterprises’ Sector: A Case of Zimbabwe.
Get PDFThis is an investigation of the effects of patronage appointments on the performance of the Zimbabwean state enterprises and parastatals (SEPs) sector. Arguably, over the years, patronage has generally attracted extensive research since the enactment of the Pendleton Act of 1883 in the United States of America. Nonetheless, it remains a very controversial issue in the semi-public sector. Consequently, there is a dearth of research on the relationship between patronage and SEPs performance. Suffice it to note that the Zimbabwean SEPs sector has had three (3) decades of poor performance, prompting several studies on the sector. The study is a qualitative research initiative based on primary data obtained through interviews of purposively identified key informants and secondary data comprising published studies, official government reports, and newspaper articles. The study advances the argument that patronage is a necessary evil, and studies of patronage appointments should focus on the management of the phenomenon as opposed to its eradication. The results reveal that patronage is indeed present in the Zimbabwean SEPs sector and that if not well managed it has severe ramifications for the performance of the sector. The study concludes that no amount of demonization of the phenomenon works but managing it transparently and objectively may produce positive results

Get PDFVitamin Dis either directly absorbed from food or produced in the skin behind exposure to UVB rays. In the kidneys and liver, Vitamin Dis hydroxylated to create 1,25(OH)2D, which has been demonstrated to have potent immunomodulatory characteristics. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and other autoimmune illnesses have been linked to Vitamin Ddeficiency, and it is thought to have anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory characteristics. Significant treatment implications arise from the hypothesis that the severity of RA is associated with serum Vitamin Dlevels. The anti-inflammatory effects of Vitamin Dare expected to be refereed at sites of RA disease, notably the inflamed joint. The active form of vitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3), may be implicated in these actions. This study compares a study with 100 volunteers, 50 RA sufferers and 50 healthy controls, all of whom were between the ages of 18 and 75. Vitamin Dserum levels have been measured and compared between patients and controls. Levels of Vitamin Din RA patients were also examined at various steps of disease activity to ascertain whether there is an association between the two where 84% of RA patients reported Vitamin Ddeficiency compared to 34% of controls. In “RA patients serum Vitamin Dlevels” are also significantly lower than in the controls. There was a strong inverse connection between Vitamin Dlevels in serum and RA disease activity.
Patients with osteoarthritis (OA) experience negative effects on their mental health.

Long-term exposure to high amounts of cytokines such as “tumour necrosis factor (TNF)”, IL-6, and IL-1 in RA may result in inappropriate behaviours such as anhedonia, anorexia, fatigue, and depression as a result of disease
