Abstract: Introduction: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a collection of symptoms occurs after compression of Median Nerve and the Carpal Tunnel (Sierra-Silvestre et al, 2024). Median Nerve mobilization is one of the interventions used in the treatment of CTS (Sierra-Silvestre et al, 2024). Several studies reported optimum results with the use of neurodynamic mobilization as a conservative treatment for CTS patients (Sierra-Silvestre et al, 2024). The aim of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of the neural mobilization of the median nerve in the management of carpal tunnel syndrome. Methodology: The study employed an analytical case control design to facilitate the neural mobilization of the median nerve in physiotherapy clinics located in Khartoum, Sudan. A total of 30 participants diagnosed with CTS took part in the study, which was divided into control and experimental groups, each consisting of 15 participants. Data collection was conducted using questionnaires and a standard data sheet. The analysis of the data was performed using the Special Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21. All ethical considerations for approval and confidentiality have been duly obtained. Results: Each control and experimental group exhibited notable differences between pre-treatment and post-treatment, with p-values being less than 0.05. However, no significant differences were observed between the control and experimental groups in this study. Conclusion: The application of Ultrasound, Exercise, and Neural Mobilization of the Median Nerve for CTS resulted in a significant positive rehabilitation effect. There were no significant differences found between the control and experimental groups in this research.

Abstract: Climate change is a critical global challenge necessitating immediate action, particularly from emerging economies like Nigeria. This research evaluates the commitment of Nigerian firms to Sustainable Development Goal 13 (SDG 13) by analyzing carbon emission disclosures and identifying their determinants. This study aims to fill a significant gap in the literature by utilizing data from the annual reports of 86 listed firms spanning 2004 to 2023. The study employs the fixed-effects and random-effects regression models, to estimate the variables under investigation. The findings reveal a low average carbon emission disclosure rate of 0.1688, suggesting insufficient transparency among firms. Notably, audit quality negatively correlates with disclosure levels, indicating that firms with higher audit quality may feel less compelled to disclose emissions. Conversely, larger firms and those with greater board gender diversity are more likely to report their carbon emissions, supporting the notion that diverse perspectives can enhance transparency. Additionally, older firms demonstrate a significant positive relationship with disclosure practices, reflecting established norms around environmental accountability. The study highlights that while larger boards are typically associated with better governance, the results indicate that they may hinder effective decision-making regarding sustainability reporting. Furthermore, the lack of significant impact from board independence challenges traditional views on corporate governance, suggesting that independent directors may not prioritize environmental issues. It is recommended that enhancing proactive disclosure practices, optimizing board structures, promoting gender diversity, leveraging the experience of established firms, and tailoring sustainability approaches by industry. These strategies aim to align corporate practices with Nigeria's commitment to sustainability, ultimately contributing to improved environmental accountability and corporate governance.
