Psychological aspects affecting the venture performance of Indian women entrepreneurs

Abstract This study examines the direct and indirect impact of perceived emotional support in enhancing the venture performance of women entrepreneurs through the mediating effect of entrepreneurial persistence and entrepreneurial passion. The data were collected cross-sectionally from 317 women entrepreneurs across the country using a convenience sample. To ensure the constructs’ validity and reliability, Cronbach alpha, C.R, and Heterotrait-Monotrait ratio (HTMT) tests were employed. Hypotheses were tested using PLS-SEM. The findings of this study confirm the statistically significant positive direct impact of entrepreneurial passion and persistence on the venture performance of women entrepreneurs. More importantly, entrepreneurial persistence and passion significantly mediate the link between perceived emotional support and venture performance, conforming to a fully mediated relationship. The current study’s findings signify the role of emotional support, particularly among Indian women, in enabling them to persist and boosting their passion for venture success. This research adds to the existing body of knowledge by identifying the mediating effect of entrepreneurial persistence and passion on the perceived emotional support and venture performance relationship. Moreover, it contributes to the scant literature on the construct of perceived emotional support of women entrepreneurs and its impact on venture performance.
Study on Four-Dimensional Evolution of Concentric Traveling Ionospheric Disturbances After Falcon 9 Rocket Launch Using Ionospheric Tomography

The ionospheric disturbances induced by the Falcon 9 rocket launch on 17 January 2016 were reconstructed by three-dimensional computerized ionospheric tomography using observations from the North American global navigation satellite system networks. The results showed that concentric traveling ionospheric disturbances (CTIDs) occurred ∼18 min after the rocket launch and were remarkable at 200–300 km altitudes. The vertical phase velocities of the CTIDs were consistent with the inclinations of the U-shaped structures. At specific azimuth directions of 350°, 30°, and 105°, the estimated vertical phase velocities between 100 and 200 km altitudes were ∼222.2, ∼208.3, and ∼242.4 m/s, respectively. When the CTIDs propagated upward to 400–500 km altitudes, their vertical velocities increased to ∼566.7, ∼966.7, and ∼944.4 m/s. CTIDs traveling northward (azimuths 350°, 30°) had periods of ∼11 min. At 200 and 300 km altitudes, their horizontal phase velocities were ∼309.9–323.3 and ∼309.4–330.9 m/s, respectively, with horizontal wavelengths of ∼204.5–213.4 and ∼204.2–218.4 km. In contrast, CTIDs propagating eastward (azimuth 105°) displayed a period of ∼15 min. At 200 and 300 km altitudes, their horizontal phase velocities were ∼223.2 and ∼241.1 m/s, respectively, with horizontal wavelengths of ∼200.9 and ∼217.0 km. These CTIDs propagation characteristics agreed well with the theory of gravity waves.
THE AGE AND GROWTH OF ALBACORE TUNA (THUNNUS ALALUNGA) OF THE NORTH EAST ATLANTIC OCEAN AS INFERRED FROM THE IRISH PELAGIC TRAWL FISHERY OF 2002

SUMMARY The age and growth of pelagic trawl caught albacore tuna, Thunnus alalunga was studied by examining growth rings on cross sections of the first dorsal fin spines. A total of 276 spines from albacore of between 47cm and 120cm were used from mid water pair trawlers between July and November of 2002 from the edge of the continental shelf between the Bay of Biscay and the West Coast of Ireland. A significant linear relationship was found between spine radius and albacore fork length (r 2 =0.935). Spine sections were characterised by alternating opaque and translucent bands and it is proposed that a pair of such bands corresponds to a year’s growth. An age length key was constructed and three different methods were used to establish von Bertalannfy growth parameters. These were: excel solver, Ford Walford and bootstrapping using code written in the R environment. Results from each were similar with a value of around 127cm for L. Values for K and T0 were around 0.18 and -1.75 years respectively. The average length at age 1 was estimated to be 50cm. The range of ages estimated was 10 years. RESUME
Identification of novel variants for complicating cardiac disease in the scrub typhus infection using whole genome sequencing

Background/Aims Scrub typhus infection has been known to complicate cardiovascular diseases mainly attributing to high mortality. Genetic susceptibility loci for complicating cardiac diseases such as atrial fibrillation, heart failure, and ischemic heart disease identified by genomic study have been limited in scrub typhus infection. Therefore, we investigated the genetic novel variants predicting complicating cardiac diseases in patients with confirmed scrub typhus infection using whole genome sequencing. Methods We performed a prospective study for eight consecutive patients with scrub typhus infection. During follow-up, six cases were clinically diagnosed with complicating cardiac diseases and two controls without complicating cardiac diseases. The whole genomes of the all patients were sequenced, and the individual sequence variants were compared between case and control patients. Variant genotypes were compared and identified as a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the different genotype distributions between six cases and two controls. Results The GG genotype in SNP (rs4977397) of solute carrier 24 family member 2 (SLC24A2) gene and non-TT genotype in SNP (rs2676750) of adenosine deaminase, RNA specific, B2 (ADARB2) gene were distinctively found in the case patients with complicated cardiac disease, compared with control patents in the scrub typhus infection. Conclusions We suggest that the SNPs of SLC24A2 and ADARB2 might be genetic surrogate markers for complicating cardiac diseases in the scrub typhus infection. Our study show that early detection based on individual sequence variants might be feasible to predict complicating cardiac diseases in patients with scrub typhus infection, if further studies with more participants confirm these findings.

Insight into Risk Factors, Pharmacogenetics/Genomics, and Management of Adverse Drug Reactions in Elderly: A Narrative Review

The European Medicine Agency (EMA) has defined Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) as “a noxious and unintended response to a medicine”, not including poisoning, accidental, or intentional overdoses. The ADR occurrence differs based on the approach adopted for defining and detecting them, the characteristics of the population under study, and the research setting. ADRs have a significant impact on morbidity and mortality, particularly among older adults, and represent a financial burden for health services. Between 30% and 60% of ADRs might be predictable and preventable, emerging as a result of inappropriate prescription, drug chemistry inherent toxicity, cell-specific drug toxicity, age- and sex-related anomalies in drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination (ADME), and drug–drug interactions (DDIs) in combination therapies or when a patient is treated with different drugs for concomitant disorders. This is particularly important in chronic diseases which require long-term treatments. Rapid developments in pharmacogenetics/genomics have improved the understanding of ADRs accompanied by more accurate prescriptions and reduction in unnecessary costs. To alleviate the burden of ADRs, especially in the elderly, interventions focused on pharmaceutical principles, such as medication review and reconciliation, should be integrated into a broader assessment of patients’ characteristics, needs, and health priorities. Digital health interventions could offer valuable solutions to assist healthcare professionals in identifying inappropriate prescriptions and promoting patient adherence to pharmacotherapies.
Beyond a single story: The heterogeneity of human flourishing in 22 countries

Contemporary cross-cultural research on flourishing and development has been limited by a focus on Western populations and typically Western priorities, and by attention to only a few indicators of flourishing, such as life satisfaction, life expectancy, or GDP per capita. This paper highlights some significant challenges for robust cross-national and cross-cultural research on the domains and drivers of flourishing. Using data from the recently proposed Global Comparison Framework and the Gallup World Poll, we explore the within- and between-country heterogeneity of flourishing and its determinants across the 22 countries which are the subject of the Global Flourishing Study. Sources of heterogeneity considered include potential tradeoffs among domains of flourishing; the effects of cultural differences on the conceptualization and actualization of flourishing; and the cultural specificity of core analytical concepts, including “life evaluation” and “nation. ”
Structural diversity is a key driver of above-ground biomass in tropical forests

ABSTRACT Background A gamut of abiotic and biotic factors is related to the amount of above-ground biomass (AGB) produced in ecosystems. Some factors have direct and others indirect relationships with AGB. Detailed analyses in tropical forests are few but much needed for better understanding the potential impacts of global change drivers and for mitigating impacts. Aims Here, we examined the relationship between AGB and different predictor variables and quantitatively evaluated their relative importance in lowland to lower montane deciduous and lower montane – montane evergreen forest types. We hypothesised that the relationship between AGB and climate, topography, structural diversity, species diversity (alpha and beta) and phylogenetic diversity would differ between the two forest types. Methods We inventoried trees from 114 plots (each 0.1 ha) and used partial least square structural equation modelling to test the direct and indirect relationship between AGB and the predictor variables. Results We found that structural diversity variables, stem density and tree girth, were significantly and positively related to AGB in both forest types, displaying a stronger relationship in montane evergreen forests (w = 0.65 for density and 0.89 for tree girth). In the deciduous forest, alpha and phylogenetic diversity were also important factors, whereas beta and phylogenetic diversity were important in the evergreen forest. The effects of topography and climate varied between forest types, with elevation and precipitation being related to AGB directly and indirectly through their relationship with structural diversity. Conclusion Our results suggest that structural diversity is a key driver of tropical forest biomass, both directly and indirectly. This fundamental understanding can aid in the predictive efforts of biodiversity conservation and forest management.
Response of CO2 and CH4 emissions from Arctic tundra soils to a multifactorial manipulation of water table, temperature and thaw depth

Significant uncertainties persist concerning how Arctic soil tundra carbon emission responds to environmental changes. In this study, 24 cores were sampled from drier (high centre polygons and rims) and wetter (low centre polygons and troughs) permafrost tundra ecosystems. We examined how soil CO2 and CH4 fluxes responded to laboratory-based manipulations of soil temperature (and associated thaw depth) and water table depth, representing current and projected conditions in the Arctic. Similar soil CO2 respiration rates occurred in both the drier and the wetter sites, suggesting that a significant proportion of soil CO2 emission occurs via anaerobic respiration under water-saturated conditions in these Arctic tundra ecosystems. In the absence of vegetation, soil CO2 respiration rates decreased sharply within the first 7 weeks of the experiment, while CH4 emissions remained stable for the entire 26 weeks of the experiment. These patterns suggest that soil CO2 emission is more related to plant input than CH4 production and emission. The stable and substantial CH4 emission observed over the entire course of the experiment suggests that temperature limitations, rather than labile carbon limitations, play a predominant role in CH4 production in deeper soil layers. This is likely due to the presence of a substantial source of labile carbon in these carbon-rich soils. The small soil temperature difference (a median difference of 1 °C) and a more substantial thaw depth difference (a median difference of 6 cm) between the high and low temperature treatments resulted in a non-significant difference between soil CO2 and CH4 emissions. Although hydrology continued to be the primary factor influencing CH4 emissions, these emissions remained low in the drier ecosystem, even with a water table at the surface. This result suggests the potential absence of a methanogenic microbial community in high-centre polygon and rim ecosystems. Overall, our results suggest that the temperature increases reported for these Arctic regions are not responsible for increases in carbon losses. Instead, it is the changes in hydrology that exert significant control over soil CO2 and CH4 emissions.
Clustering and Switching in Semantic Verbal Fluency: Their Development and Relationship with Word Productivity in Typically Developing Greek-Speaking Children and Adolescents

Performance in semantic verbal fluency (SVF) tasks, mainly measured by the number of words of a particular semantic category produced within a limited time, is a widely accepted measure of cognitive functioning used in the neuropsychological assessment of children and adults. Two strategic processes, Clustering and Switching (C&S) have been proposed to underlie fluency processes and affect performance in the task. However, few studies have reported on the development of those cognitive strategies and their relationship with word productivity in typically developing children. Even fewer studies have covered a broad developmental period from preschool to adolescence or measured the effect of contextual factors in this relationship. Based on a sample of 472 typically developing Greek-speaking children aged 4;0 to 16;11 years, we investigated the development of SVF performance and reported on the degree to which it is affected by C&S strategies, children’s sex, and level of parental education. Results revealed a large effect of age on word productivity and on the use of C&S strategies. Two switching factors (number of clusters and number of switches) and two clustering factors (mean cluster size and a novel measure, maximum cluster size), appeared to be significantly associated with word productivity, with the largest effect being attributed to the two switching factors. C&S factors, together with children’s age and parental education, predicted 91.7% of the variance in the SVF score. Children’s sex was not found to have a significant effect on either word productivity or C&S strategies. Results are discussed for their theoretical implications on the strategic processes underlying word production in typically developing children.
The synergistic health impacts of exposure to multiple stressors in Tulare County, California

Tulare County is located in the Central Valley region of California (CA). Its population is exposed to stressors that include high levels of air, water, and soil pollution, socioeconomic strain, and poor access to walkable areas and healthy foods. As a result, this population suffers from a high disease burden compared to other CA counties. We hypothesize that environmental and socioeconomic stressors interact in complex ways to raise the burden of disease in the Tulare population beyond additive impacts. We used CalEnviroScreen to select Tulare County as the subject of the study and characterized the geographical interaction of stressors. The CalEnviroScreen indicators provided the basis for population-weighted average calculations to determine the most critical environmental and socioeconomic stressors in Tulare County. We also analyzed and interpreted walkability and dietary access through open-source data. In addition, we compared disease-based mortality in Tulare County to CA state averages. Our evaluation reveals that the population living within the census tracts of Tulare County is exposed to environmental stressors at significantly higher levels relative to many other Californian census tracts, specifically for fine particulate matter, ozone, and drinking water quality. Relatively high exposures to socioeconomic stressors can compound resulting health impacts. We use dose–response curves and stressor mapping to characterize how multiple stressors may augment a population’s vulnerability and effective doses from exposure to multiple stressors. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Data, the differences in mortality rates between Tulare and CA were not significant. However, notable differences in mortality between CA and Tulare occur for Alzheimer’s disease, diseases of the circulatory system, influenza, and pneumonia, which were all statistically higher in Tulare County, and for diabetes, endocrine, nutritional and metabolic diseases, and neoplasms, which were statistically lower Tulare. Previous health-impact studies have linked individual environmental stressors to their respective measures of disease. However, many communities continue to be exposed daily to numerous stressors that individually are within regulatory limits but could significantly magnify risk due to the synergistic effects. Dose–response curves tailored to population vulnerability provide a basis for quantifying the synergistic risks of multiple stressors on specific measures of disease.
Philosophical Meaning and Educational Values in Sari Swara as a Textbook for Appreciating Children's Literature

This study specifically aims to examine the philosophical meaning and educational values contained in the Serat Sari Swara by Ki Hajar Dewantara (KHD). Serat Sari Swara is an old literary work (1930) written directly by KHD using Javanese script and in Javanese poetry/tembang type. Studying old literary works is crucial, considering that many moral teachings and educational values are implicit. Based on the format and character, this descriptive qualitative research used an interactive model of data analysis method, with a literary interpretive perspective content analysis method. The primary data sources of this research came from the Serat Sari Swara script and the results of interviews with informants. The research findings revealed the philosophical meanings and values of the five Serat Sari Swara poetry as follows. Based on data analysis on the philosophical meaning and educational values of Serat Sari Swara, it can be summarized as follows. 1) Sekar Gula Ganthi contains philosophical and educational values of religious education and the value of discipline education (discipline in carrying out its duties, hard work and responsibility to carry out the task of completing the mission it carries). 2) Langen Siswa contains philosophical meanings and the value of character education of thank God and value togetherness and solidarity. 3) Tembang Puji Santosa has philosophical and educational values of obey the teacher, students must be serious if they study, everything must be carried out sincerely, do not like to be sad, do not be lazy, always be grateful, 4) Tembang Ima-Ima contains the educational value of decency and politeness in an association. 5) Sekar Ageng Salyarini contains the philosophical meaning of nationalist spirit and willing to sacrifice. The results of this study will later be developed into a textbook material for children's literature appreciation for the Elementary School Teacher Education Study Program.
Management and Outcomes of Invasive Procedures in Individuals with Hemophilia A on Emicizumab Prophylaxis: A Single Center Experience

Prophylactic treatment with emicizumab has become an important and effective bleeding prevention for people with hemophilia A (PwHA). Perioperative management of PwHA using emicizumab prophylaxis is still challenging due to a lack of experience. Medical records of perioperative management and outcomes were reviewed, and data were collected for adult PwHA receiving emicizumab and undergoing surgical procedures between August 2019 and July 2022 at the University Medical Center Ljubljana. Twelve surgical procedures were performed in eight PwHA (one with FVIII inhibitors) while on emicizumab prophylaxis. Three minor procedures included cataract surgery, cystoscopic lithotripsy, and percutaneous coronary intervention. Nine major surgeries included four osteosyntheses, necrectomy of chronic osteomyelitis with new ankle arthrodesis, two below-knee amputations, total knee replacement, and placement of ventriculostomy after a spontaneous intraventricular hemorrhage. No major bleeds, thrombotic events or deaths, or new inhibitors appeared. Our real-world experience demonstrates that minor and major surgeries can be performed safely in PwHA on emicizumab prophylaxis. Additional data are needed to optimize dosing/duration of additional hemostatic agents in diverse invasive procedures and complex clinical situations.
Time Allocation Effect on Test Scores for Academic Writing of Indonesian English Learners

It is widely known that test takers with a more extended time allotment in IELTS can perform better in the writing portion than those with a lower time allotment. The most compelling argument for test providers to limit test administration time, particularly for academic writing activities, is practicality. This article assesses how the time allotted differently of 30 or 50 minutes affects the writing skills of English learners and that the time allotted for the IELTS test is confirmed as the most efficient. The test takers' writing was evaluated using a variety of measures in this study. An interview was also conducted to unveil their experiences related to the time allotment. The findings reveal improved writing skills in terms of fluency when a lengthier (30-minute) time limit was given. Complexity is also enhanced, and the learners are difficult to conclude. The learners' results could vary due to the two-timing conditions; they believe in performing better under the extended time allotment.
