Bulgular, SBT'ye yönelik tutumların yaş, eğitim, meslek, BT sertifikası, bilgisayar ve internet kullanımı gibi çeşitli demografik ve mesleki faktörlerden etkilendiğini göstermektedir.
Trabajadoras asalariadas y autónomas ante la protección por maternidad: La subsistencia de estereotipos sexistas en la ley y en la jurisprudencia
Authors:   Universidad de Murcia, López Aniorte María del Carmen
Published: October 2024

En este trabajo se analizan los estereotipos de género presentes en la norma- tiva reguladora de la protección por maternidad en el trabajo asalariado y autónomo, así como en la doctrina del TJUE y del TC que la interpreta. Los prejuicios sexistas impreg- nados en la cultura, en las normas y en las resoluciones judiciales siguen atribuyendo a la madre trabajadora el rol de cuidadora prioritaria, rol que se silencia y enmascara tras el argumento de la necesidad de tutelar “las particulares relaciones” entre la madre y la cria- tura recién nacida. La desigual regulación de los permisos por maternidad y paternidad discrimina indirectamente a las mujeres pues, al imponerles el ejercicio de los derechos de conciliación en caso de parto y convertir al padre en un mero colaborador, hace recaer sobre ellas el coste laboral de la decisión de tener descendencia; coste que es especialmente alto en el trabajo por cuenta propia, lo que desincentiva el autoempleo femenino.
Critical airway management and weaning in neonate with large vallecula cyst: Anesthetist perspective
Authors: Jayaraman Gobinath
Published: October 2024

Congenital laryngeal cyst is identified as a rare cause of stridor in infants. A small cyst remains asymptomatic, whereas large cyst can block laryngeal inlet and can lead to airway obstruction. In pediatric population, it is very important to make prompt diagnosis and immediate intervention to avoid respiratory distress that leads to infant morbidity and mortality. In this case report, from an anesthetic standpoint, we report a 30-day-old infant with a saccular vallecular cyst who presents with anticipated challenges with airway management and ventilator weaning. Furthermore, we would want to draw attention to the procedures that will be useful in determining when a newborn is ready to be weaned and when they can safely be removed from artificial breathing.
Impact of Janani Suraksha Yojana on Postpartum Contraception: Evidence from Two Selected Districts in Assam
Authors: Das Puna , Brahmachary Pradip
Published: October 2024

This study explores the association between the receipt of JSY benefits and postpartum contraception use among reproductive-aged women in Assam who belong to the age group 18-49 years. The study is exclusively based on primary data collected from a sample of 260 reproductive-aged women residing in the two districts of Assam viz., Jorhat and Cachar. Surveyed women considered in the study were those who had experienced at least one live birth within the two years preceding the survey. Sample respondents were divided into two groups: those who received JSY benefits and those who did not. A binary logistic regression model is used to quantify the effect of JSY on postpartum counselling and postpartum contraception. The study findings reveal a positive impact of JSY on women’s postpartum contraception adoption within the study area. The possibility of receiving counselling on postpartum contraception and adopting postpartum contraceptives was 13.89 times and 14.94 times greater for those respondents who did not benefit from the JSY. The study reveals that JSY not only promotes institutional childbirth but also enhances postpartum contraceptive counselling and the adoption of postpartum contraceptive methods among the beneficiary women.
Misconceptions about Severe Traumatic Brain Injuries among Health Care Professionals in a Tertiary Care Center
Authors: Sah Nand Kishor Prasad , Khan Abdur Raheem , Himani
Published: October 2024

Background: Traumatic Brain Injury is a neurological condition that affects millions of people every year and is a serious health concern- insufficient knowledge about traumatic brain injury held by both the general population and medical experts. Healthcare professionals who treat patients with TBI seem to have a general lack of understanding and misconceptions regarding brain injuries. Addressing and reducing TBI-related misunderstandings in clinical practices requires a grasp of basic concepts. Aim and Objective: The objective of this study is to assess the misconceptions about severe traumatic brain injury among health care professionals (physicians, nurses, and physiotherapists) in a tertiary care centre. Method: This is a cross-sectional study with a convenience sample of 120 healthcare professionals was employed. Participants in the study were ensured that healthcare professionals had sufficient exposure to TBI. The purpose of the 40-item selfreport questionnaire, the CM-TBI, was to measure respondents’ understanding of TBI, its consequences, and rehabilitation. Result: The results indicate that there is a significant difference between the groups regarding the assumption that recovery from a brain injury takes around five months (Chi-Square = 8.454, df = 2, p = 0.015). Similarly, the belief that a person who has a brain injury ‘just like new’ in several months also shows significant differences among the health care professional groups (Chi-Square = 25.860, df = 2, p = 0.000). Unexpectedly, replies from health care professionals to certain questions, such whether or not seatbelt use prevents more injuries than it causes or whether it is safer to be trapped within an accident than to be thrown clear, do not significantly differ from one another. Conclusion: Professional background may influence perceptions, emphasizing the importance of tailored educational interventions within each professional group to address potential misconceptions and enhance knowledge about severe traumatic brain injuries.

Published: October 2024

Background: Domestic accident is one of the five leading causes of death due to injuries in industrialized and developing countries. It is often determined by various factors like human, environmental and psychosocial factors. The resulting injury can largely be reduced by prompt identification and elimination of the risk factors. Not many studies are available regarding domestic accidents, their determinants and awareness. With this background the present study was carried out. Objectives: To assess the factors contributing to domestic accidents, to describe the immediate care given to manage domestic accidents, to find out the health seeking pattern and treatment outcomes among subjects with domestic accidents, to determine the association between domestic accidents and various socio-demographic characteristics. Methods: A cross-sectional study was done in the urban field practice area of a medical college in South India. Probability Proportional to Population Size (PPPS) was the sampling technique used. All individuals residing in the area for a minimum period of 6 months were included in the study. A total of 5282 study subjects were interviewed using a pre-tested semi-structured questionnaire. Data was entered into Microsoft excel and analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: In the present study the prevalence of domestic accidents was 9.6%. Falls accounted for 47.7% of the domestic accidents. The most common human factor contributing to domestic accidents was visual impairment followed by illiteracy which was the most common psycho-social factor noted. Most of the study subjects, i.e., 82%, were treated at home and majority of them i.e., 91.1% recovered completely. A statistically significant association was found between domestic accidents and various socio-demographic characteristics. Conclusion: The prevalence of domestic accidents was 9.6%. The major determinants (human, environmental and psychosocial factors) of domestic accidents were visual impairment, Diabetes, Arthritis, Slippery floors, Kitchen clutter and Illiteracy.

Authors: Namrata Pavane , Vaishali Jagtap
Published: October 2024

Background: Because of the drop in oestrogen levels, postmenopausal women typically those who have not had a menstrual period for 12 months straight experience major physiological changes. Bone density, muscle mass, and fat distribution all may be impacted by these modifications. As a result, BMI increases and changes in body composition are common in postmenopausal women, and these factors can impact the musculoskeletal system, including the spine. Weight control, core strengthening exercises, and posture training are among possible therapies for postmenopausal women to lessen the negative consequences of elevated BMI on spine health. Aim: This study uses an inclinometer to study the effect of body mass index on lumbosacral angle in post-menopausal women. The lumbosacral angle is associated with several issues that Postmenopausal women face. Postmenopausal women have a high prevalence of musculoskeletal issues. Objective: The objective is to evaluate the effect of body mass index on lumbosacral angle in post- menopausal women using an inclinometer. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study in which 96 post-menopausal women (45- 55 years) were included as per inclusion criteria using the Consecutive sampling method. Data was collected by assessing BMI, and lumbosacral angle using an inclinometer and analysis was done by INSTAT software. Result: The study included a total of 96 participants. 48 individuals were in the 40-50 age range, while 48 participants were in the 50-55 age range. So, by calculating the average of both the groups. Overall study results point to a relationship between postmenopausal women’s lumbosacral angle and body mass index. Conclusion: According to this study there is an effect of body mass index on lumbosacral angle in post-menopausal women using an inclinometer. We also found that the study showed alternation in the lumbosacral angle among postmenopausal women.

Adjusting virtual reality settings, including boundaries and game-level setting, was mentioned as a practical challenge for some participants. Conclusion: Proper orientation, patient selection for virtual reality, and sufficient familiarization are essential for the success of virtual reality rehabilitation among the Tamil geriatric population
Technological Distance: A New Way of Conceptualizing the “Distance” in Distance Learning
Authors: Dron Jon
Published: October 2024

This paper presents the concept of technological distance, which describes a gap between technologies (broadly defined to include methods, tools, principles, and processes) available for a learner to learn, and those needed to complete that learning. This gap is a measure of both the participation and autonomy of learners in the process. Available technologies may include those provided by teachers and institutions as well as from many others, most notably including the learners themselves. The technologies that make up the assembly—pedagogies and regulations as much as digital devices or classrooms—are only components, however. What matters most is how learners fill the gaps between them to achieve their learning goals. These are fundamentally situated, idiosyncratic, and human. Technological distance provides new insights into other models that use spatial metaphors, such as the presences of communities of inquiry and transactional distance.
Economic Impact of Heavy Metals Accumulation in Aquacultured Tilapia Fish in Egypt
Authors: Kadah Taher M. Saied , Farag Rasha M. Ahmed , Saad Magdy M. , Ahmed Mohamed Bedair M. , Al- sisi Mahmoud
Published: October 2024

Fish can accumulate heavy metals in their bodies from water through direct consumption or absorption through the gills, skin, and digestive system. Consequently, these metals can be transferred to humans through the consumption of contaminated fish, which may pose serious health risks. Therefore, human consumption of fish contaminated with toxic metals can cause various diseases such as liver cirrhosis and kidney failure. The study aimed to measure the potential health risks of exposure to heavy metals that exceeded the maximum limits, identify the most accumulated heavy metals in farmed fish, and assess the economic impact of the accumulation of some heavy metal elements in farmed fish in Kafr El-Sheikh and Fayoum governorates. This was done by collecting samples from several fish farms. One of the key findings of the study was the presence of multiple heavy metal elements, with arsenic and magnesium being prominent in the samples from both governorates, exceeding permissible limits in Kafr El-Sheikh. It was found that the non-compliant production in Kafr El-Sheikh averaged around 416,000 tons, valued at approximately 10 million EGP, indicating inefficient utilization of this production. In Fayoum, the non-compliant production for export specifications averaged around 14,000 tons, valued at approximately 348,000 EGP, also highlighting inefficient utilization of this production.

Transgenerational Transmission or the Family’s Intangible Legacy
Authors: Ładyżyński Andrzej
Published: October 2024

The aim of this paper is to present transgenerational transmission as a form of a family “legacy” that is passed down and received by every member of a family community. Such transmission usually involves crucial guidance on the ways in which people live their lives, formative for all those who are related by blood. The very concept of transmission reflects a whole range of related terms, such as: heritage, cultural transmission, transgenerational heritage, delegation or script. Transmission happens through conscious and unconscious acceptance of values, patterns, norms, principles and motives by subsequent generations. It takes place within families through stories, myths, recurrent sayings and “old truths” cultivated in the family. A key question arises: what can family members do with transgenerational transmission. They may have accepted and lived by it quite unaware, or have reflected or been curious about it, they may research and discover resources and limitations provided by such legacy. To an extent, it may be done on one’s own. Often, it proves more successful when supported by another person who acts as an “external mirror,” a family counsellor or a therapist. The aim of analyzing such transmissions is not to learn about the family’s past. Discovering transmissions allows people to better understand the main premises of how their family functions. Understanding such a dedicated “legacy” allows people to stop destructive transmissions. It seems to be particularly important for members of families who have become stuck in their development, who fail to use generative solutions. Understanding such a legacy may allow people to avoid inappropriate solutions that are “out of sync” with their contemporary situation, and prevent them from repeating the same mistakes across different generations.
Komunikacja codzienna w rodzinie z perspektywy korczakowskiej partycypacji społecznej dziecka
Authors: Łacina-Łanowski Artur
Published: October 2024

Zasadniczym celem tego artykułu jest ukazanie pewnych kontrowersji dotyczących zależności, jaka zachodzi pomiędzy paradygmatem komunikowania w rodzinie a umiejętnościami (kompetencjami) społecznymi, które dzięki niemu może nabywać młody człowiek. Komunikację codzienną autor traktuje jako wzorzec porozumiewania się pomiędzy rodzicami a dziećmi. Rodzina jest ujmowana jako grupa, w której zachodzą interakcje i relacje międzyosobowe. Autor przyjął założenie, iż w każdym modelu rodziny – posttradycyjnym, modernistycznym i postmodernistycznym – występuje jeden z trzech paradygmatów komunikowania się, a mianowicie transmisyjny, dwustronny czy transakcyjny. Zastosowanie paradygmatu transakcyjnego stwarza rodzicowi możliwość zbudowania konstruktywnych relacji z dzieckiem. W takiej sytuacji dziecko jest traktowane jako pełnoprawny i niezależny podmiot. Obecnie realnym zagrożeniem dla dziecka stała się wszechobecna wirtualność. Postulaty Janusza Korczaka odnośnie zachowań rodziców względem swoich dzieci tracą moc w rodzinie postmodernistycznej. „Stary Doktor” uważał, iż spełnienie powyższych warunków stworzy dziecku przestrzeń do pełnoprawnego uczestnictwa w życiu społecznym, co współcześnie zaczyna nabierać nowego, niepokojącego wymiaru.

Życie jest… galerią – rola przekazu międzygeneracyjnego w kształtowaniu tożsamości artysty na przykładzie rodziny Minichów
Authors: Karkowska Magda
Published: October 2024

Artykuł poświęcony jest analizie roli przekazu międzypokoleniowego w kształtowaniu tożsamości artysty na przykładzie łódzko-lwowskiej rodziny Minichów. Moim głównym celem było uchwycenie treści i znaczeń zawartych we wspomnianym przekazie, poszukiwanie przykładów i wyjaśnień tego, jak intelektualna atmosfera domu Minichów i pionierska wizja uprawiania sztuki, wpisana w kontekst powojennych wydarzeń społeczno-politycznych w Polsce, znalazły odzwierciedlenie w tożsamości córki artystki, jak wszystkie wymienione czynniki stymulowały jej rozwój i budowanie wiedzy społecznej i samowiedzy. W kształtowaniu tożsamości artysty kluczowe znaczenie mają rodzinne wzorce, osoby, z którymi twórca się otacza i z którymi współpracuje, tworzone dzieła sztuki i jej dziedzina. Podsumowując, chodzi tu nie tylko o początki kontaktu ze sztuką sięgające dzieciństwa, ale także wpisane w proces biograficzny motywy tworzenia i kontaktu z różnymi formami sztuki oraz o szeroko rozumiane wartości przyświecające życiu Narratorki, takie jak: wolność, odwaga i wierność sobie.

Interaction Effect of Melatonin and Lighting Regime on Behavioral Responses, Hematological Indices and Production Performance of Isa Brown Laying Birds
Authors: Ozioma Igwe Rosemary , Herbert Udo , Ogunnupebi Jude T. , Osakwe Isaac Ikechukwu
Published: October 2024

Background: Poor poultry production performance of laying birds because of reduced immunity leading to economic loss is a major problem facing egg production in the poultry industry especially in Nigeria. Melatonin is a hormone that regulates the brain's biological clock and acts on physiological functions and the immunity system. It also provides the elimination of free radicals in the body, but lighting affects melatonin secretion and light is also necessary to enhance feeding and photoperiod which enhance egg laying. Methods: A total of 164 Isa Brown laying Birds were used to evaluate the interaction effect of melatonin and lighting regime on behavioural responses, haematological indices and laying performance of Isa Brown laying birds. The experiment was grouped into 9 treatments which were further subdivided into three replicates of six birds in a 2×3 factorial in a completely randomized design. Melatonin and lighting at three levels were administered to the birds daily for 30 weeks. The three levels of melatonin were 0 mg, 5 mg and 10 mg while lighting was 12 hours, 15 hours and 18 hours daily. Data were collected on behavioural responses, haematological indices and production performance of the birds. Result: Results from the experiment indicate that the interaction of melatonin and lighting significantly (p less than 0.05) reduced the dust-bathing, feather pecking and panting rate of the birds. The interaction level at M10L15 reduced dustbathing to 80.30% as against the control M0L12 which was at 95.43%. The interaction significantly (p less than 0.05) improved feed conversion ratio, body weight gain and hen-day egg production for M10L12, M5L15, M10L15 respectively. The haematological parameters were significantly improved by the effect of the interaction. It is therefore concluded that the interaction of melatonin and lighting in different levels of administration improved the behavioural responses and production performances and maintained the health status of the Isa brown laying birds.

Published: October 2024

Background: Abortion is a major health problem of animals including goats, which results in significant financial losses for the farmers. The aim of the current study was to determine the occurrence of abortion in different breeds of goats reared under semi-intensive farming system at the organized farms in the semi-arid region of India, and to determine the relationship between the parity, season, and pregnancy stage of the aborted goats with the incidence of abortions. Methods: The data on the caprine abortions was collected and analyzed. The caprine abortions that occurred at the organized farms under a semi-intensive management system were categorized according to the season at the time of abortion, parity and pregnancy stage of the aborted goats. The Chi-Square test and ANOVA methods were used for the statistical analysis of the abortion data. Result: The occurrence of abortion in goats (combined farm) had a significant association with seasons and stages of pregnancy, whereas it was not associated with parities. Barbari, Jakharana and Jamunapari goats individually showed significant differences in abortion rates across various seasons, but did not exhibit significant variation in abortion rates with respect to different stages of pregnancy or parities. In the study, the majority of abortions were found in the winter season, followed by the rainy and summer seasons; similarly, most of the abortions were noticed in the later stage of pregnancy, followed by the mid- and early stages. There was the highest abortion rate in the goats with parity 3 and above, followed by the first and second parities. Further investigation is required to validate the current findings. In conclusion, the study revealed that abortion rates in goats are significantly influenced by seasonal changes and the stages of pregnancy.
Annual Report of the Commissioner for Entrepreneurs' Rights at the President of the Russian Federation as a Guarantee of State Protection of the Rights and Legitimate Interests of Business Entities
Authors: Plakhova E. S.
Published: October 2024

The practice of having ombudsmen in Russia is relatively recent. The branching of this institution into specialized ombudsmen provided a more timely and specific protection of citizens' rights. Their work is impossible without various constitutional and legal instruments, the meaning of which is revealed in this paper. The Institute of the Commissioner for Entrepreneurs' Rights at the President of the Russian Federation exercises its powers in accordance with current legislation. However, there are situations requiring a more timely response to the problems of the business community. The annual report of Commissioner for Entrepreneurs' Rights at the President of the Russian Federation is a form of report combining the results of the activities of the central office and regional business ombudsmen. It also contains statistics, social survey data, a special report including key business problems, a register of systemic issues of Russian business, as well as administrative pressure index, etc. Using these instruments, a business ombudsman can manage his work in numerous regions of the Russian Federation, provide federal business support, conduct international negotiations, maintain international cooperation, and be engaged in educational and teaching activities.

   All these prove the relevance of the research.

   The purpose of the study is to identify and analyze the means used by the Commissioner for the protection of the rights of entrepreneurs.

   The main part of the study presents three instruments: a special section of the annual report “Key business issues in the context of sanctions and structural transformation”, a Register of systemic issues of Russian business, and administrative pressure index. The methodological basis of the study is the methods of analysis, modeling, observation, comparison and others. Currently, due to a well-coordinated functioning mechanism and a wide number of public and expert assistants, a business ombudsman timely and properly solves various business issues. The paper studies the role the means used by a business ombudsman play for the state and specific public authorities.
Administrative and Legal Regulation of the Development and Use of Artificial Intelligence
Authors: Lyannoy G. G.
Published: October 2024

The paper examines the difference between the terms “digital economy” and “digitalization of the economy”. Having conducted research, the Author comes to the conclusion that the term “digital economy” cannot be used to denote technologies being used in global economies. Digitalization of the economy is currently underway all over the world. The era of digital economy has not come yet because mankind has not seen a new technological leap as a part of evolution to result in creating artificial intelligence. The introduction of artificial intelligence technology into the economy, which will have been digitalized by then, will lead to a single digital economy in the meaning the term “digital economy” implies. The Author thinks that without integration of these two phenomena, the use of the term “digital economy” is erroneous. Having studied the historical prerequisites for the emergence of the phenomenon of “digitalization of the economy”, the Author comes to the conclusion that the only country in the world that was on the verge of building a state based on digitalization technologies was the USSR. That took place 40 years before the term “digital economy” appeared. The paper goes on to say about the legal regulation of creating artificial intelligence  in countries such as the United States of America, England, Germany, France, Italy, Poland, Israel, India, China, South Korea and the Russian Federation. The paper draws the examples of legislation of various countries that regulate the legal status of artificial intelligence, as well as their various approaches to the development of artificial intelligence. Moreover, the study highlights the problems of a non-legal nature that lawyers and users will face when they use artificial intelligence technology. Artificial intelligence is viewed in the context of business security. The Author is certain that administrative and legal institutions have to regulate this area of activity.

Building a state governed by the rule of law involves improving the mechanism for combating encroachments on justice ensuring observance of human and civil rights and freedoms. In changing criminology realities, in the focus of discussion are the ways to increase the effectiveness of guaranteesaimed to observe the rights and freedoms of persons involved in criminal proceedings, also with the help of criminal legal means. The paper presents the criminal law analysis of the signs of a victim of coercion to testify (Article 302 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation).

   The subject of the study is the set of definitions used by the legislator to describe the signs of a victim of coercion to testify, as well as the provisions of criminal procedure legislation regulating the legal status of participants in criminal proceedings protected by the norm under consideration. The analysis of the stated problems is based on the legal views of the highest judicial authorities, with regard to historical, legal and doctrinal aspects. An interdisciplinary approach made it possible to identify the peculiarities of the legal status of persons classified by the legislator as victims of coercion to testify. The paper analyzes the legal status of the person whose criminal case was severed from the rest as a result of a plea bargain with him, as well as the person against whom proceedings to take compulsory measures of medical nature are conducted. The study focuses on the applicant, the eyewitness, the victim of the crime and parties of no procedural status but possessing important criminal information. The current criminal legislation does not provide for bringing the offenders to justice in case of undue influence against parties with an informal procedural status in the course of criminal proceedings. The paper substantiates the need to classify these parties as victims of coercion to testify. There is a discrepancy in the terminology of criminal and criminal procedure laws, and imbalance in providing punishment according to general and special rules. The undertaken research proposes to improve the legal and clerical condition of the current version of Article 302 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation in terms of clarifying the range of victims, and to review the penalty with regard to the general rule.

Objectives: To assess if different dental X-ray sources and receptors can improve the bone-to-implant interface image visualization by preventing halo artefact expression in terms of presence and magnitude. Methods: 144 digital periapical radiographs of eight titanium implants installed in two human jaws were obtained using two devices (high- and low-frequency X-ray sources) and two radiographic receptors (complementary solid metal oxide semiconductor sensor, and phosphor storage plate). Two evaluators assessed the presence or absence of halo on the left, right and apical surfaces of the implants. In surfaces with halo, the area was segmented and quantified to measure the magnitude of artefact using the Trainable Weka Segmentation plugin of the ImageJ software. Statistics comprised Cochran’s Q, ANOVA, Kappa, and Intraclass Correlation tests (α = 5%). Results: Intra-examiner reproducibility was substantial and excellent. No surface showed statistically significant differences between the paired groups considering halo presence. 85 radiographs had at least one surface with halo, but the magnitude of halo did not vary considering the X-ray sources and radiographic receptors studied. Conclusion: Neither different X-ray sources nor radiographic receptor used in dentistry could improve the bone-to-implant interface image by preventing the presence or reducing the magnitude of halo artefacts.

Introdução: O Muay Thai foi instituído no Brasil por Nélio Naja em 1978. Objetivo: analisar as narrativas orais dos mestres pioneiros do Muay Thai no Brasil sobre a realização dos exames de faixas entre 1978 e 1985, período liderado por Nélio Naja. Metodologia: empregada foi a história oral, focando em entrevistas com esses mestres e na análise de fontes documentais. Resultados e discussões: Os achados principais indicam que o Muay Thai, inicialmente um híbrido de diferentes artes marciais, foi adaptado ao contexto brasileiro, com a criação de um sistema de graduações inspirado no Taekwondo. Nélio Naja desempenhou um papel central na introdução e difusão da modalidade no país. Os primeiros exames de faixa enfatizavam a bravura, a resistência e a virilidade, com a exigência de que os praticantes suportassem dificuldades físicas para serem graduados. Considerações finais: A regulamentação oficial pelo Conselho Nacional de Desportes e a mudança dos critérios de avaliação, de aspectos viris para técnicos, foram fundamentais para a consolidação do Muay Thai no Brasil, além de facilitar a inclusão de praticantes de diferentes perfis, contribuindo para um ambiente mais diverso e acolhedor.

With the internet, the technique of having information or records will become quicker and extra efficient. present day college students are very dependent on the internet in phrases of gaining knowledge of, doing assignments, accumulating assignments, even within the studying method using the internet. the present facility at Lambung Mangkurat university is ULM HOTSPOT to facilitate college students to get entry to the internet without cost, however at certain times ULM HOTSPOT regularly decreases its network speed. The intention of the research became to analyze the quality of the ULM HOTSPOT network in five faculties of Lambung Mangkurat university, Banjarmasin, specifically the faculty of Engineering ULM, faculty of Eco- nomics and business ULM (FEB ULM), faculty of teacher training and education ULM (FKIP ULM), faculty of Social and Political Sciences ULM (FISIP ULM), in addition to the ULM faculty of law, by using searching out parameter calculations for quality of provider, particularly Throughput, Jitter, delay, and Packet Loss primarily based on TIHPON standardization and in order to be able to discover what factors impact the parameter values of quality of service. The research turned into accomplished by collecting parameter data from quality of service using the network Protocol Analyzer software, specifically Wireshark in five faculties of Lambung Mangkurat university, Banjarmasin through getting access to the ULM HOTSPOT network in each faculty and establishing Simari, Gmeet, and Zoom as substances for accumulating quality of service parameter records. . The outcomes of this observe obtained a quality of service rating based on standards from TIHPON, faculty of Engineering with a rating of 2.75 (Unsatisfactory), FEB-ULM with a rating of 3 (excellent), FKIP-ULM with a value of 2.75 (Unsatisfactory), FISIP-ULM with a value of 3 (excellent), and the faculty of law with a value of 3 (excellent). The factors that have an effect on the decrease within the quality of service rating based on the ULM HOTSPOT internet network consumer capability exceeds the limit.

Purpose - This study aimed to examine the relationships between the utilitarian perceptions (information quality), hedonic perceptions (pleasure) and social perceptions (social interaction and homophily) of tourists in eWOM - on the one hand and their decision-making processes on the other. Furthermore, this study explored how these perceptions determine the mediating effect of trust in eWOM. Methodology/Design/Approach - A quantitative survey was conducted based on a random sample of American international tourists. Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) was used to analyse the collected data. Findings - The results demonstrate a significant influence of bridging social capital, homophily and perceived enjoyment on tourists’ decision making. Secondly, perceived trust was found to mediate the relationship between, on the one side, bridging social capital, information quality, and perceived enjoyment, and on the other, tourists’ decision making. Originality - Based on the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) theory, this study developed a new integrated model of the relationships between the eWOM antecedents and tourists’ decision-making, with perceived trust acting as a mediator

The canine distemper virus (CDV) is a morbillivirus implicated in several signs in the Canidae family, in dogs, conjunctivitis, digital hyperkeratosis and neuropathologies are common signs of its infection. Even with the existing vaccination, the canine distemper disease persists worldwide so the molecular pathways implicated in the infection processes has been an interesting and promisor area in the new therapeutic drugs research over recent years. It is known that in the process of virus infection the endoplasmic reticulum organelle lost its homeostasis inducing stress and the subsequence unfolded protein response or UPR in which three ER-trans-membrane proteins are implicated: PERK, IRE1 and ATF6. Moreover, in a prolonged ER stress the apoptosis dead are induced through CHOP protein, as a final step of virus infections. Molecular and cell culture techniques as RT-qPCR and RT-PCR were used in the present study. We demonstrate the activation in vitro of the three UPR pathways after infection with an attenuated strain of CDV. Also, the implication of a MAPK pathway through p38 protein and the apoptotic protein CHOP was funded to participate in all times of infection. Even more, our study suggested that CDV replication occur in a PERK-dependent manner.
