Unresolved and misdiagnosed of floating sensation in young man
Abstract: Persistent Postural-Perceptual Dizziness (PPPD) stands out as a prevalent peripheral vestibular disorder, earning its recognition in the International Classification of Vestibular Disorders in 2017. Characterized by chronicity, this condition manifests symptoms persisting for more than three months, encompassing a disconcerting array such as a floating sensation, unsteadiness, and dizziness. Notably, individuals afflicted with PPPD often report symptom exacerbation following prolonged standing, self-initiated motion, or exposure to dynamic visual stimuli. This …

Community Perception on Land Dispossession and Compensation Practices: Evidence from Gondar City, Northwest Ethiopia
Abstract: Land expropriation for urban expansion in the Gondar area significantly reduced farming households from 95%–74%, displacing 29% of affected farmers. While some acknowledged the public benefits, most respondents criticized the process for a lack of transparency, limited community involvement, and inadequate rehabilitation support. Farmers reported receiving compensation that was low, unfairly calculated, and subject to prolonged delays. Key systemic issues included a lack of awareness among affected communities, inconsistent knowledge …
