Published: December 2023

Digitalisaation myötä asiakaskokemus syntyy yhä useammin vuorovaikutuksessa digitaalisen sovelluksen kanssa. Tavanomaiset, arkiset pankkipalvelut eivät ole tästä poikkeus. Saavutettavuudella pyritään varmistamaan, että palvelu on tasa-arvoisesti kaikkien asiakkaiden käytettävissä heidän mahdollisista tiedollisista, taidollisista tai muista rajoituksistaan huolimatta. Erityisesti haavoittuvassa asemassa olevat kuluttajat saattavat jäädä joko kokonaan palvelujen ulkopuolelle tai heidän asiakaskokemuksensa ei rakennu positiiviseksi. Tämän artikkelin tavoitteena on rakentaa ymmärrystä saavutettavuuden merkityksestä osana asiakaskokemusta erityisesti verkkopankkipalveluiden kontekstissa. Tutkimus yhdistää saavutettavuustutkimusta ja asiakaskokemuksen tutkimusta haavoittuvassa asemassa olevien kuluttajien näkökulmasta. Kaksiosainen tutkimusaineisto koostuu verkkopankkipalvelujen saavutettavuudesta vastaavien pankin asiantuntijoiden haastatteluista ja Suomi24-keskustelufoorumin verkkokeskusteluista. Aineiston analyysimenetelmänä on käytetty temaattista analyysiä ja sisällönanalyysiä. Tulokset osoittavat, että tekninen saavutettavuus toteutuu jo varsin hyvin, mutta kognitiiviseen ja sosiaaliseen saavutettavuuteen ei kiinnitetä riittävästi huomiota. Lisäksi emotionaalinen saavutettavuus, joka liittyy läheisesti asiakaskokemukseen, jää enimmäkseen huomiotta. Johtopäätöksenä ehdotammekin uuden, emotionaalisen saavutettavuuden lajin lisäämistä saavutettavuuskirjallisuuteen. Lisäksi korostamme, miten haavoittuvassa asemassa olevia kuluttajia koskevaa tutkimusta tulisi lisätä asiakaskokemuksen rakentumisen ymmärtämiseksi.

В конце XIX – начале XX века в городах Закавказья одна за другой открывались пивоварни. На основе нововыявленных архивных документов и официальных статистических данных показано, что из действовавших в Ереванской губернии пивоваренных заводов наиболее жизнеспособными в Александрополе были пивоваренные заводы Дзитохцянов и Цагикянов, а в Ереване пивоваренные заводы Аветянца. Они действовали вплоть до Первой мировой войны, способствуя оживлению городской жизни в Армении. В декабре 1920 года, после советизации Армении, упомянутые заводы были национализированы и снова задействованы.
At the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries, breweries were opened one after another in the cities of Transcaucasia. Based on the newly discovered archival documents and official statistical data, it is shown that the most viable breweries in the Yerevan province were the factories of the Dzitoghtsyans and Tsaghikyans in Alexandropol and Avetyants in Yerevan. They were in operation until World War I and contributed to the revival of Armenian urban life. After the sovietization of Armenia in December 1920, the above mentioned factories were nationalized and put back into operation.

Из 41 сохранившейся народной песни армянского эпоса «Сасна Црер» (арм. «Сасунские удальцы») 15 принадлежат самому любимому герою – Давиду. Песни Давида по содержанию группируются на три типа: (1) песни, в которых герой собирает сведения о предках и планирует свои действия, (2) песни, раскрывающие его психологическое состояние, (3) песни, представляющие его как сильную личность, уверенную в своих планах и действиях. Все песни Давида представляют нестандартный контур мелодии, в ко- тором она начинается и развивается на высоком регистре, а затем к концу внезапно скачком переходит на более низкий регистр, где происходит ее развязка. Графические модели песен, выполненные соответственно теории Дейвида Хюрона, наглядно представляют тип нестандартных песен Давида. При этом вражеские характеры эпоса не проявляют такие мелодические формулы. Поэтические тексты песен также позволяют рассмотреть оригинальность мелодий.
Out of forty-one available folk songs of the Armenian epic Sasna Tsrer (Arm. Daredevils of Sassoun), 15 samples belong to the most beloved hero, David. David’s songs are grouped into three types according to their content: (a) songs in which the hero collects information about his ancestors and plans his actions, (b) songs that uncover his psychological state, and (c) songs that present him as a strong personality confident in his plans and actions. All the songs of David present non-standard contour of the melody in which it starts and evolves in a high pitch, and then by the end suddenly drops to a lower pitch where its denouement occurs. The graphic models of the songs performed according to David Huron’s theory, evidently present the nonstandard model of David’s songs. At the same time, the enemy characters of the epic do not show such melodic formulas. The lyrics of the songs also allows to consider the originality of the melodies.

Over the years, simulation has grown in popularity as a means to construct safe, but realistic environments in which to train healthcare professionals. Whilst many well-established guidelines have been put in place to ensure optimal educational outcomes, the lens through which those developing said guidelines see the world is often left undiscussed. Is it then possible that our assumptions and beliefs can act as a filter through which our reality is observed?

A organização pessoal desempenha um papel fundamental no ambiente de trabalho e pode influenciar diretamente no desempenho profissional. Quando a pessoa possui uma boa organização, consegue gerenciar melhor suas tarefas, cumprir prazos, lidar com o estresse e manter um equilíbrio emocional. No entanto, a falta de organização pode levar a problemas psicológicos, que são amplificados pelo clima organizacional. A ligação entre a organização pessoal e profissional é essencial para um bom desempenho no trabalho. Quando a pessoa consegue organizar suas atividades, estabelecer prioridades e planejar seu tempo de forma eficiente, ela se torna mais produtiva e consegue lidar melhor com as demandas do ambiente de trabalho. Por outro lado, a desorganização pode levar a problemas psicológicos, como ansiedade e estresse. Um ambiente de trabalho desorganizado, com prazos apertados, falta de apoio e excesso de demandas, pode sobrecarregar os trabalhadores e afetar sua saúde mental. Além disso, é fundamental promover um clima organizacional favorável, que incentive a colaboração, o apoio mútuo e o cuidado com a saúde mental dos funcionários. Em suma, a organização pessoal desempenha um papel crucial no desempenho profissional e no bem-estar psicológico dos indivíduos. Ao estabelecer estratégias de equilíbrio emocional, é possível enfrentar os desafios do ambiente de trabalho de forma mais saudável e alcançar melhores resultados tanto pessoalmente quanto profissionalmente.

An Investigation into the Phenomena of Meaning Making and Wording in Non-Fiction Novel from Systemic Functional Linguistics
Authors: Gia Thi Tuyet Nhung , Phan Van Hoa
Published: December 2023

In the light of Systemic Functional Linguistics, language is both a source of meaning-making and a source of wording modes in texts. To further clarify this ideology in practice, the article uses the phenomenon of wording in the non-fiction novel "Silent Spring" by Carson - the world's most famous female writer for her environmental protection works- for analysis aiming at teaching grammatical metaphor to the students of English at a University. The article briefly introduces the theory of Systemic Functional Linguistics, including the Grammatical metaphor (GM). Next, descriptive, qualitative, quantitative, and quasi-experimental methods are used with more than 200 samples selected to determine the relationship between the lexicogrammatical and semantic aspects in the impact of the context; the article pays special attention to congruent expressions and metaphorical expressions. Based on applying the quasi-experimental method to English classes of 373 students, the writers describe the three stages of teaching (GM), analyze the data related, and present research results. The conclusion consists of application suggestions in terms of language research and language education, such as reading, understanding, evaluating, and building relevant types of text.

Published: December 2023

O delirium é uma condição prevalente em ambiente hospitalar e os avanços em seu conhecimento ainda não se traduzem na prática clínica. Este estudo teve o objetivo de apresentar o processo de elaboração de uma Tecnologia Educacional em Saúde, em formato de Guia de Orientações, sobre as possibilidades de intervenções da equipe multiprofissional para manejo de delirium em Unidades de Terapia Intensiva Adulto (UTI-A). Para tanto, se propôs a descrever as principais intervenções indicadas na literatura científica e discutir o papel da equipe multiprofissional nessas estratégias junto ao paciente e à família. Realizou-se uma revisão integrativa da literatura nas bases de dados US National Library of Medicine (PubMed), Web of Science, Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) e Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS), com as bases Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS) e Banco de Dados em Enfermagem (BDENF). Incluíram-se publicações originais com texto completo disponível, de 2017 a 2022, nos idiomas português, inglês e espanhol. A seleção final resultou em 18 artigos. Oito temas de intervenções foram identificados: bundle ABCDEF; sedação, controle da dor e da agitação; avaliação do delirium; mobilização do paciente; medidas não farmacológicas e ambientais; estratégias individualizadas; participação e educação da família; educação e comunicação da equipe. Constatou-se que ainda são poucos os estudos que descrevem as ações de manejo do delirium em pacientes críticos, implicando na necessidade de mais pesquisas que possam contribuir para a visibilidade do tema e melhoria da assistência hospitalar. A revisão realizada fundamentou a elaboração de um projeto piloto do Guia de Orientações, intitulado “Delirium na UTI-A: atenção e cuidado em equipe”, que deverá ser estruturado em formato de livreto. Espera-se que a conclusão do Guia possa fornecer subsídios para educação em saúde, operando enquanto recurso para a formação de equipes e espaços educacionais, como os rounds multiprofissionais.

Purpose. The bremsstrahlung received at electron accelerators is widely used to study the characteristics of photonuclear reactions and to solve a wide spectrum (series) of applied problems. Basically the output of bremsstrahlung depends on the electron energy, the material of the target converter (Ta) and its effective thickness. The optimum thickness of the converter (when the output of the bremsstrahlung is at its maximum) is significantly less than the electron path in it. This is the reason for the presence of high-energy electrons in bremsstrahlung. Therefore, there is a need to clean the bremsstrahlung beams from residual electrons. The aim of the work is to experimentally determine the optimal parameters (thicknesses) of double-layer targets for obtaining separated bremsstrahlung beams for an energy range of 6.5 ÷ 17.75 MeV in electron accelerator M-30 microtron.
Methods. Experimental studies of the relative absorption coefficient of electrons in the investigated materials (C (reactor graphite), Al, Ta) were carried out on the M-30 microtron using the transmission method. The measurements of the outputs of the electrons from the accelerator and the residuals that have passed through the layer of absorbing material were carried out using a pass-through chamber and a Faraday cup, respectively. Studies of the absorption of high-energy photons by single-layer targets (C (20 mm), Al (20 mm)) using activation detectors have been carried out.
Results. The electron absorption coefficients in single- (C (7 ÷ 46 mm), Al (8 ÷ 48 mm), Ta (0.1 ÷ 1 mm)) and in double-layer targets (Ta (1 mm) + C (7 ÷ 39 mm) and Ta (1 mm) + Al (8 ÷ 40 mm)) were measured for the electron energy 6.5 ÷ 17.75 MeV. The values of the total electron absorption thickness for C, Al, and Ta are in good agreement with the calculated values of the practical electron path (database «ESTAR») for the indicated energy range. The experimentally established values of the thicknesses of materials (C and Al at a thickness of Ta – 1 mm) of doublelayer targets, which ensure the complete absorption of electrons for the indicated energy range. The absorption of high-energy photons by single-layer targets (C (20 mm), Al (20 mm)) for bremsstrahlung energy of 17.5 MeV was evaluated.
Conclusions. The optimal parameters (thicknesses) of double-layer targets (Ta (1mm) + C (20 mm) and Ta (1 mm) + Al (20 mm)) or (Ta (1mm) + C (39 mm) and Ta (1 mm) + Al (32 mm)) were established experimentally to form the separated bremsstrahlung beams in the electron accelerator – M-30 microtron for energy region 6.5 ÷ 17.75 MeV. The use of two-layer targets allows us to carry out procedures to form of high-energy photon beams with the parameters necessary for performing specific experimental studies on electronic accelerators, which will increase the accuracy and reliability of the results
Simulation the Yields of Actinide Nuclei Photofission Products as Sources of Delayed Gamma Radiation for the Needs of Analyzing their Isotopic Composition
Authors: Pylypchynets I.V. , Parlag O.O. , Oleynikov E.V.
Published: December 2023

Purpose. One of the most important tasks of the nuclear industry is to control the non-proliferation of fissile nuclear materials (for example232Th, 235U, 238U, 239Pu) at all stages of their use (movement, storage, etc.). To successfully solve this problem, reliable information about their isotopic composition is required. The present study aims to simulate the yields of pairs of photofission products of 232Th, 235U, 238U, 239Pu nuclei, the delayed gamma radiation of which can be used for nondestructive isotopic analysis of nuclear materials at electron accelerators.

Methods. Calculations of the mass distributions of the photofission products of 232Th, 235U, 238U, 239Pu nuclei were carried out using the GEF code. The bremsstrahlung spectrum was simulated during the interaction of electrons (E=12.5 MeV) with a tantalum converter (1 mm) using a GEANT4 10.7.

Results. Simulations of mass distributions of photofission products of 232Th, 235U, 238U, 239Pu nuclei have been carried out. The yields ratios for product pairs (Y88/Y135, Y92/Y135, Y92/Y138, Y87/Y138, Y88/Y138, Y89/Y138, Y87/Y142,Y88/Y142,Y89/Y142) are calculated for the indicated cores. Estimates of the difference between the numerical values of the ratio of yields of pairs of fragments for pairs of nuclei 232Th and 235U, 235U and 238U, 238U and 239Pu are made on a percentage basis. The values of the difference in the ratios of the yields of these pairs of products are – 5.0÷43.2%, 14.1÷39.3%, and 14.1÷39.3% for nuclear pairs232Th and 235U, 235U and 238U, 238U and 239Pu, respectively.

Conclusions. The results of the simulation indicate the possibility of using the above pairs of fission products as sources of delayed gamma radiation when performing nondestructive isotopic analysis of nuclear materials. The results obtained can be used to optimize experiments on electron accelerators, which will improve the accuracy and reliability of the results
Духовне здоров’я як складова самоактуалізації особистості
Authors: Карленко Н. В.
Published: December 2023

У статті проаналізовано місце духовного здоров’я в освітньому процесі самоактуалізації особистості (за матеріалами дисертації «Філософсько-освітній вимір концепту духовного здоров’я» на здобуття наукового ступеня кандидата філософських наук). Вказується, що забезпечення духовного здоров’я особистості та формування її здатності до самоактуалізації мають багато точок перетину в освітній діяльності. Передусім мова йде про формування у особистості цілого комплексу якостей та здатностей, які, будучі спрямовані на її саморозвиток, одночасно є і механізмами забезпечення духовного здоров’я. Серед таких якостей насамперед слід вказати на розвиток потреби та здатності особистості до усвідомленого самопізнання, спрямованість до самоідентифікації, діяльність у напрямі саморозвитку та розкриття власних здатностей, формування у мотивації до особистісної саморегуляції. Усі ці якості формуються у освітньому процесі і по суті представляють собою інтегровані цілі постнекласичної освіти, яка фокусується на забезпеченні освітніми впливами здатності особистості до саморозвитку та самоактуалізації упродовж усього свого життя. Уточнено обґрунтування, що духовне здоров’я особистості визначається цілим комплексом складних соціокультурно-ціннісних феноменів та процесів. Отримало подальший розвиток: обґрунтування того, що цілепокладання освітньої діяльності щодо формування духовного здоров’я особистості здійснюється через розвиток її духовної культури, освіта при цьому виступає як транслятор духовної культури, за рахунок чого у освітній діяльності формується специфічний простір духовності – основна передумова «одухотворення особистості», створення середовища, яке забезпечує її духовне здоров’я; встановлення інноваційного характеру освітніх цілей формування духовного здоров’я у контексті постмодерних новацій; визначення того, що лише постановка у центр уваги духовного здоров’я забезпечує спрямованість освітнього процесу у гуманоцентричному напрямі, при цьому цілісність останнього знаходить свій вираз у конституюванні через високодуховні та інтелектуально-перетворюючі освітні технології здоров’ярозвиваючого і здоров’язберігаючого освітнього середовища як основного чинника духовно-ціннісного виховання особистості у якості інтегрованої мети усього освітнього процесу. Цей досвід може стати у нагоді викладачам, керівникам закладів загальної середньої освіти країни, хто цікавиться питанням формування духовних цінностей особистості, ціннісних орієнтацій здобувачів освіти, підвищенню професійної майстерності педагогів у питаннях здоров’язбереження та розвитку духовних цінностей здобувачів освіти.

Detailed Implementation about Street Fighter Game using Python
Authors: Journal IJSREM
Published: December 2023

This paper examines the varied cultural meanings of computer game play in competitive and professional computer gaming and live-streaming. A fighting game is a genre of video game that involves combat between two or more characters. Fighting game combat often features mechanics such as blocking, grappling, counter-attacking, and chaining attacks together into "combos". Characters generally engage in battle using hand-to-hand combat—often some form of martial arts. The fighting game genre is related to, but distinct from, the beat 'em up genre, which pits large numbers of computer- controlled enemies against one or more player characters. The controls for Final Fight consist of an eight-way joystick and two buttons for attacking and jumping respectively. Pressing the attack button repeatedly when attacking an enemy Pressing the attack and jump buttons simultaneously allows the player to perform a special attack that strikes all surrounding enemies, but will drain a small portion of the player's health. Enemies can be grabbed simply by walking into one of them. When an enemy is grabbed, the player can perform a grab attack by pressing the attack button or perform a throw by tilting the joystick left or right. A thrown enemy can be tossed at another for additional damage. Items such as weapons, health recovery items, and items awarding extra points can be picked up by standing over one and pressing the attack button. Weapons have limited uses and will disappear if the player is disarmed by an enemy too much or when the player moves to a new area.

Published: December 2023

‘Evidence pyramid’ can better be termed as ‘evidence based pyramid’. Background information pertaining to any topic can be gathered mainly from available literatures. We have different methods to gather as much information we want. Some of the gathered information will be unfiltered. We will come across researches done using different study designs and each design has its own inherent strengths and weaknesses. Quality and reliability of evidence is very important and for that reason, evidence pyramid is divided into many levels. Accuracy will be more and bias will be less as we ascend up the pyramid. In-vitro lab studies forms the base of the pyramid, above which Animal Studies are placed. Background information and opinions form the third tier and these information may not be true always and can get influenced by many factors. Case reports and case series forms the immediate higher level. Many rare diseases were first recognized from case reports; a glaring example being the early confirmation of Nipah virus infection in Kerala, India during 2021. But the scientific community is sceptical about the quality of evidence obtaining from case report/series. Case Control study comes just above case report/series. Absence of randomization and probability of confounding are often regarded as drawbacks. Cohort Study is useful is assessing risk factors that cannot be experimentally controlled. Reliability is more for cohort studies and the evidence can be generalized more readily. In evidence pyramid, cohort study comes just above case control studies. Evidence from a Randomized Control Trial (RCT), due to the randomization and its experimental design is a strongest indicator of a cause and effect relation. Critical appraisal is a short summaries of available evidence. Even though not a study design, critical appraisal is considered as a better evidence provider than RCTs and sometimes it is included in the evidence pyramid. Systematic review and meta-analysis at the pinnacle of the pyramid. They are often regarded as strongest evidence available in the literature. Critical appraisal, systematic review and metanalysis are often considered as ‘filtered information’.

Systematic review and meta-analysis (SRMA) are the supreme collective scientific evidence available in our literature. Conducting a SRMA is a time consuming, relatively expensive team work. There are many funding options for a relevant SRMA. Hence it is advisable to check whether our proposed SRMA is unique or whether someone else is currently doing it. One can do it by searching PROSPERO maintained by University of York, Cochrane library, PubMed and Google Scholar. It is mandatory to register SRMA; PROSPERO is a major registration option. PROSPERO doesn’t allow multiple registrations of the same topic unless a valid justification can be given. PROSPERO requires a registration which is free of coast. Registration can be done by visiting https:// www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/ . After login, we can either register our SRMA or we can search ongoing SRMA. Having a protocol as per PRISMA-P guidelines is mandatory for a smooth registration process. Registration increases the credibility of the SRMA and eliminates the chance of unnecessary duplication of the work. Protocol helps to plan and anticipate problems associated with SRMA. There are different methods for preparing the protocol; Cochrane protocols and PRISMA-P protocols. This editorial will deal with PRISMA-P protocols. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) was published in 2015 ( Moher D, Shamseer L, Clarke M, Ghersi D, Liberati A, Petticrew M, Shekelle P, Stewart LA. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocols (PRISMA-P) 2015 statement. Syst Rev. 2015;4(1):1. doi: 10.1186/2046-4053-4-1). PRISMA-P specifically talks about protocols, PRISMA about manuscript writing and PRISMA-S about reporting search strategies. PRISMA-P statement (http://www.prisma-statement. org/Extensions/Protocols ) contains some very important items. Administrative information includes identification (Title, original or updated SRMA), registration details, author information (primary and contributors), amendments (indicate ONLY if the protocol is a modification of the earlier one) and support (information regarding funding). Introduction includes rationale and objectives. Methods include eligibility criteria (study characters like PICO, study design and setting, time frame etc.), information sources (all intended digital and other sources), search strategy (MESH terms, Boolean operators, synonyms etc.), study records (data management methods like Rayyan, selection process like who screens the data and data collection process like MS excel / spread sheet), data (define al variables), role of bias in individual studies (describe methods for assessing risk of bias at study level or outcome level or both), data synthesis (describe the statistical aspects), meta bias (publication bias among studies, possibility of selective reporting) and confidence in cumulative evidence.

Authors: Sarker Mohammad Shaheen , Carsten Oliver , Huang Yue , Hajiseyedjavadi Foroogh
Published: December 2023

In Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs), approximately 93% of global road fatalities occur. As the population of students and workers in these countries continues to grow, walking becomes a prevalent mode of transportation for their daily commutes to schools and workplaces. Bangladesh faces the challenge of pedestrian fatalities, particularly among students and workers, while they cross medium-to-high speed roads during their daily journeys. This research aims to enhance highway crossing design and promote safe crossing behaviour in Bangladesh. The study utilises the COM-B (Capability, Opportunity, and Motivation-Behaviour) model to collect self-reported attitudinal responses from 302 pedestrians who regularly encounter different crossings, including zebra crossings, footbridges, underpasses, and non-priority crossings. These data collection sites are situated along two major highways in Bangladesh. The developed conceptual model in this study focuses on understanding the interplay between Capability, Opportunity, and Motivation, explaining 42% of the variance in the Target Behaviour of safe crossing use and 34.5% in Motivation. The analysis underscores the crucial role of Opportunity in predicting safe crossing use, followed by Motivation and Capability. Furthermore, the study examines the influence of COM-B factors on three essential components of the Target Behaviour: avoiding violations in using nearby crossings, aggressions, and lapses. The findings indicate that physical opportunity plays a vital role in avoiding violations in using nearby crossings, while social opportunity plays a vital role in avoiding aggressions and lapses. Motivation is a key mediator between Capability and Opportunity when predicting safe crossing use. To promote safe crossing practices, designers should focus on Motivation factors such as satisfaction, benefits realisation, and habit formation to maximise the benefits. The study emphasises the necessity for comprehensive interventions, which involve designing pedestrian-friendly infrastructure through various measures. These measures include improving visibility, reducing crossing times, ensuring accessibility, strategically placing traffic signs and fencing, and incorporating refuge areas. Additionally, the study highlights the significant role of social opportunities in safe crossing use by considering appropriate strategies to leverage social elements to motivate pedestrians by involving influential individuals, collaborating with families and institutions, facilitating group crossings, and implementing safety alert reminders. Moreover, social elements impact pedestrians' physical and psychological capabilities for safe crossing practice, as revealed in the study. Overall, the study highlights the potential of the COM-B model and underscores the need for comprehensive interventions to enhance pedestrian safety in LMICs.

Objective: To assess the safety and effectiveness of high-density light-emitting diode (LED) irradiation therapy in patients with hand osteoarthritis (OA) and compare the pre- and post-intervention symptoms.Methods: Twenty-three patients with hand OA underwent eight sessions of high-density LED irradiation therapy directed at the five most painful areas in the finger joints. Each session lasted for 18 minutes; and the sessions were conducted twice a week, for 4 weeks. We evaluated the degree of pain using the visual analogue scale, ring size, and passive range of motion (flexion+extension) for two most painful joints from the baseline to post-therapy (weeks 4 and 6).Results: High-density LED irradiation therapy significantly reduced the pain posttreatment compared with that observed at the baseline (p<0.001). Although improvements were observed in ring size and joint range of motion at 4 and 6 weeks, they were not statistically significant (p>0.05). No adverse events were observed.Conclusion: We examined the safety and effectiveness of high-density LED irradiation therapy in reducing pain and hand swelling and improving joint mobility in patients with hand OA. These results suggest that high-density LED irradiation therapy has the potential to be an important strategy for managing hand OA.

Published: December 2023

This study analyzes the relationship between the energy efficiency and the stringency of environmental and market regulation in the electricity sectors has been analyzed. Using 19 European Union countries (2006-2014), we decomposed the environmental policy stringency index, the OECD regulatory indicators and the total factor productivity growth to highlight the complexity of the relations between electricity sector and regulatory policies. In the first stage we compute the three main components of total factor productivity. These three efficiency measures are used in the second stage to assess the impact of the regulatory policies on the total factor productivity also controlling for spatial effect. Results suggest that market and environmental regulations have not unidirectional impacts on the three components of total factor productivity. Pure and scale efficiency index are negatively affected by sectorial regulation that positively affect the shift of technological frontier. Environmental policy negatively affects the shift of the efficient frontier, but has a positive effect on the scale efficiency.

Published: December 2023

Agility and innovation are two of the most important capabilities that organizations have to deal with in disruptive environments. This research aims to examine the effect of strategic agility and innovation capability on firm performance in the Indonesian motorcycle industry. The research was conducted on 208 companies comprising both OEM (original equipment manufacturer) and tier 1 component suppliers in the supply chain of the Indonesian motorcycle industry. The validity was tested using the content, construct and convergent validity tests, the construct reliability was tested using the one-shot measure reliability test, and the hypothesis testing was carried out using structural equation modeling. The results show that innovation capability has a significant direct effect on strategic agility and firm performance, but in contrast to previous research findings, strategic agility does not have a significant direct effect on firm performance. In addition, strategic agility does not mediate the relationship between innovation capability and firm performance. These findings provide practical guidelines for the motorcycle industry in Indonesia to focus on developing innovation capabilities, particularly process innovation, which is related to the industry's ability to manufacture products at a lower cost and become a pioneer of the latest technology in its field. In the current conditions, companies are advised to focus more on other types of agility, such as operational or supply chain agility rather than strategic agility.

Published: December 2023

This research examines the factors influencing the performance of Islamic banks in Southeast Asia (SEA) and the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) regions. It focuses on three key areas: corporate governance (CG), Shari’ah supervisory board (SSB) mechanisms, and corporate social responsibility (CSR) disclosure. This research employed rigorous panel data regression analysis, covering data from 79 Islamic banks spanning the years 2012 to 2021. This analytical approach revealed intricate connections between CG practices, SSB mechanisms, CSR disclosure, and bank performance. Strong CG and SSB mechanisms, in conjunction with robust CSR disclosure, positively impacted Islamic bank performance. These factors facilitated value creation, accountability, and stability, even during the COVID-19 pandemic. This underscores the significance of enhancing CG, SSB mechanisms, and CSR disclosure to bolster transparency and trust within the Islamic banking sector. Collaborative efforts among regulators, investors, and creditors are imperative for enforcing regulations, formulating CSR guidelines, and strengthening governance. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of CG practices, their impact, and the role of CSR disclosure in Islamic banks. It offers valuable insights for stakeholders and enhances comprehension of these mechanisms within the context of the SEA and GCC regions.

Published: December 2023

Diatomite ores have great potential as an adsorbent and drug carrier system due to their natural abundance, biocompatible, and high surface area. In the first stage of this study, raw diatomite ore was enriched by grinding and calcination processes. As a result of the enrichment process, the surface area was found to be 21.7 m2/g for raw diatomite and 75.1 m2/g for calcined diatomite. Subsequently, a series of diatomite-chitosan composites with different composition ratios were produced. Then, the loading (adsorption) performances of diphenhydramine hydrochloride (DPH), an antihistaminic agent, were investigated on the prepared composites. The highest loading capacity was 91.1 mg/g, and the lowest loading capacity was 48.8 mg/g in the prepared DPH-loaded formulations. After DPH loading studies, DPH release profiles (desorption) and release kinetics from composites were investigated. As a result of in vitro release studies, it was observed that formulations containing chitosan polymer had slower release than chitosan free formulations. It was determined that the formulations had a cumulative release in the 70-90% range, and the release processes were completed between 45-90 minutes. In vitro release profiles of the prepared formulations were compatible with Higuchi kinetics.
