Authors: Phuong Vo Tu , Nguyen Nguyen Dang
Published: December 2023

O inglês para fins específicos (ESP) ganhou importância crescente ao longo dos anos devido à sua abordagem prática e direcionada ao aprendizado de idiomas. Ao se concentrar na comunicação dentro de domínios específicos ou contextos profissionais, o ESP capacita os alunos com habilidades de leitura para que tenham sucesso em seus campos escolhidos. O uso de atividades de tradução para aprimorar as habilidades de leitura é uma abordagem interessante. Compreender o estado atual das aulas de ESP na Universidade de Khanh Hoa (UKH) é uma etapa crucial para obter percepções valiosas sobre os pontos fortes e fracos da abordagem existente, permitindo melhorias direcionadas. A investigação das necessidades e da orientação de aprendizado dos alunos por meio de perguntas e escuta ativa é o principal objetivo que ajuda a adaptar as atividades de tradução de forma adequada. A personalização é fundamental para o aprendizado eficaz de idiomas, e essa abordagem provavelmente produzirá resultados positivos. O experimento planejado para avaliar o impacto das atividades de tradução nas habilidades de leitura em inglês dos alunos fornece evidência empírica da eficácia da metodologia de pesquisa. Ao comparar os resultados do experimento com os do grupo de controle, os autores podem medir o sucesso da abordagem e identificar áreas que precisam ser aperfeiçoadas. Avaliar a satisfação dos alunos e os benefícios que eles percebem com as atividades de tradução é essencial para medir o sucesso geral das aulas de ESP. Altos níveis de satisfação indicam engajamento e uma experiência de aprendizado positiva, enquanto as percepções dos alunos sobre os benefícios que obtêm podem ajudar a promover a abordagem para outros alunos em potencial. Portanto, a pesquisa aborda um aspecto fundamental do aprendizado de idiomas e suas descobertas podem contribuir significativamente para o campo da ESP. Ao se concentrar nas habilidades de leitura em contextos específicos, a abordagem se alinha bem com as necessidades reais dos alunos e tem implicações para os alunos de idiomas no UKH e em outros locais.

Doğu Anadolu’da Esnafın Yatırım Yapmalarını Engelleyen Faktör: Düşük Yoğunluklu Nüfus
Authors: AKIN Mustafa Şeref
Published: December 2023

Erzincan Çayırlı ilçesinde bulunan esnafın geçmişteki yatırımları ve gelecekteki planları üzerine araştırma
yapıldı. Farklı sektörlerde çalışan 12 esnaf ile görüşüldü. Esnafın yatırımlarını başlatma ve durdurma
kararlarında ana faktör nüfus hareketliliğidir. Göreceli olarak tüketim ve ihtiyaç malzemeleri satan işletmeler
ayakta kalmayı başarsalar da özellikle eğlence sektöründe olan kafe, restoran, internet kafe gibi işletmeler
nüfustaki dalgalanmaya karşı yüksek hassasiyet taşımaktalardır. Ancak nüfus artmadığı ve bilakis göç devam
ettiği için sektörden bağımsız olarak işletmeler yatırım yapmayı düşünmemektedirler. Yüksekokulun açılması
ilçeyi hareketlendirmişse de Covid-19 ve genel olarak öğrencilerin ilçelere taleplerini düşürmeleriyle açılan
işletmeler kapanmıştır. Esnafın yatırım yapılabilir gördükleri alan nüfusa dayalı olmayan sektörlerdir. Burada
elde edilen çıkarımlara göre kamu politikası iki yönde olabilir. Birincisi kamusal idari birimler ve üniversiteler
bu bölgelere taşınabilir. Özellikle üniversiteler açısından Batı Anadolu’daki kontenjanların azaltılması ve
Doğu Anadolu’ya verilen kontenjanların arttırılması düşünülebilir. İkincisi üretim teşvik politikaları ile ilçe
dışına satacak yerli girişimcinin üretimine destek olacak şekilde planlanabilir. Ancak bu desteğin satın alma
garantisinin de kapsaması gereklidir. Çünkü Doğu Anadolu bir üreticinin bölgesinin dışına satış için pazar
bilgisine ve dağıtım kanallarına ihtiyacı vardır

BM Kararlar Açısında Keşmir Sorunu ve Narendra Modi’nin Keşmir Politikas
Authors: ULLAH Sami
Published: December 2023

Hindistan ve Pakistan, 1947'deki bağımsızlıklarından bu yana dört kez savaşmışlardır. Bu iki devlet arasındaki rekabetin temel nedeni Keşmir çatışmasıdır. Bu çalışmada, Keşmir sorununun ortaya çıkışı ve Birleşmiş Milletler’in rolü ele alınmıştır. Birleşmiş Milletler’in Keşmir'deki rolünü anlamak için Hint Yarımadası'nın bölünmesinin tarihsel arka planına değinilmiştir. Birleşmiş Milletler kararları çerçevesinde Keşmir sorununun hangi tarihsel süreçlerden geçtiğini ve geçmekte olduğunu ortaya konulmuştur. 1947'de Pakistan ile Hindistan arasında bölge paylaşımında ortaya çıkan en büyük sorunlardan biri Keşmir eyaletini hangi ülkenin ilhak edeceğiydi. Keşmir'in bölünmesi Hindistan’ın parçalanmasından bir yıl sonra gerçekleşmiştir. Bölünme sırasında Keşmir'in durumu Hindistan’ın diğer bölgelerinden farklı gözlemlenmişti. Dolayısıyla nüfus olarak Müslüman çoğunluğa sahipken hükümdarı Hindu olan bir prensli devlet olarak yer almıştır. Keşmir'i kimin (Pakistan veya Hindistan) ilhak edeceği konusundaki anlaşmazlık artık askeri müdahaleye dönüşmeye başladığında Birleşmiş Milletler devreye girmiştir. Bu makalede Keşmir meselesinin nasıl uluslararası bir mesele haline geldiği ve Birleşmiş Milletlerin bu meseleyi neden çözemediği hakkında bilgiler verilmektedir. Keşmir çatışması sırasındaki kritik tarihi olaylara ve Modi yönetimi sırasında Hindistan'ın Keşmir’in yönetiminde gerçekleştirdiği anayasa değişiklikleri de dikkate alarak değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Bu çerçevede Keşmir sorununun çözülmesine ilişkin bir engelleyici durum daha ortaya koyulmuştur. Modi hükümeti, anayasa değişikliği ile Keşmir'in bir bölümünü (Ladakh bölgesi) Keşmir'den ayırmayı başarmıştır.
Temsili Bürokrasi ve Vatandaş Katılımı
Authors: DEMİREL Özge , ÖZTÜRK Namık Kemal
Published: December 2023

Bir toplumda cinsiyet, ırk, etnik köken, dil, din vb. çeşitliliğin kamu hizmeti ifa etmekle görevli olan bürokratik yapıya yansıması ve bunun hizmetlere olan etkisi temsili bürokrasi kavramıyla açıklanmaktadır. Buna göre demografik yapının kamu bürokrasisine yansıması pasif temsili bürokrasi, bürokraside bu çeşitliliği temsil eden kişilerin alacakları karar veya uygulamalarında meydana getirdiği değişiklik aktif temsili bürokrasi ve bunun sembolik olmasının dahi olumlu sonuçlar ortaya çıkaracağı, bürokratın eylemine yansımasına gerek olmadığı üzerine odaklanan sembolik temsili bürokrasi olarak ele alınmaktadır. Bu noktada pasif temsili bürokrasinin oransal olarak bir toplumda demokrasinin gelişimine, aktif temsili bürokrasinin ise bu sürece katılımcı anlayışla ortaya çıkan hizmetler açısından katkı sağlayacağını söylemek mümkündür. Bu çalışmada kamu kurumlarında farklıkların temsili olan temsili bürokrasinin bir toplumda katılımcı demokrasi ilkelerinin gerçekleşmesi sürecine katkı sunduğu varsayımından yola çıkılmıştır. Buna göre temsili bürokrasiyi içselleştirmiş, iyi kurgulamış bürokratik yapılarda, vatandaşın hizmetten yararlanma memnuniyetinin, hizmette etkinlik ve verimliliğin arttığı, hizmeti kendisinden biri olarak gördüğü bürokratlar elinden aldığında karar alım ve uygulama süreçlerine daha aktif katılım sağladığı sonucuna ulaşılmaktadır. Çalışmada öncelikle temsili bürokrasi kavramı pasif, aktif ve sembolik temsil olmak üzere farklı boyutlarıyla açıklanmıştır. Ardından kavram, tüm boyutlarıyla bir bütün halinde vatandaş katılımına olan katkısı bağlamında ele alınmıştır. Bu değerlendirme, alanda daha önce yapılan çalışmalar ve ortaya koyduğu sonuçlar üzerinden yapılmış ve temsili bürokrasi ile vatandaş katılımında meydana gelen değişim ve dönüşüm örneklerle ele alınmıştır.
Fragmentation of Hope through Tiny Acts of Bureaucratic Cruelty - Another Kind of War on Afghan People Seeking Asylum in Sweden
Authors: Elsrud Torun
Published: December 2023

This article analyzes the micro-powers of Swedish “cruel” and “non-cruel” bureaucrats using various logics of control, “tiny acts” enacted with pens, computers, and imposed assignments to condition asylum-seeking peoples’ lives and fragment their hope. Based on interviews with asylum-seeking Afghans and observations of their meetings with authorities, I argue that the bureaucratic treatment of Afghans in Sweden is a form of state-sanctioned racist violence and “departheid” executed to exclude discredited people from the welfare state. The article draws attention to a rapid downhill slide regarding asylum rights in Sweden since 2015 and the harm caused to asylum-seeking people.

The origins of hacktivism and criminal legal counteraction to its manifestations
Authors: Efimovskii Andrei Vasil'evich
Published: December 2023

The article comprehensively examines cybersecurity issues, as well as the origins and principles of hacktivism, and gives their definitions. The tools used by hacktivists in their destructive activities are examined and their classification is presented. The criminal legal characteristics of the types of crimes used by hacktivists when carrying out cyber attacks are determined. The importance and necessity of proper measures to overcome the phenomenon of hacktivism is presented. The existing criminal legal methods of countering manifestations of hacktivism, available in Russian criminal legislation, are analyzed. Measures to counter IT threats of an organizational and technical nature are proposed. The topic under study requires further collection and processing of empirical material in order to identify new methods of committing cyber attacks on critical infrastructure and developing new approaches to combating this type of crime, ensuring uniform practice. Hacktivism is a new phenomenon in the IT environment. Hacktivism does not imply material benefit from the acts committed, which makes it difficult to classify and differentiate from related groups. Thus, a scientific interpretation and elaboration of a unified conceptual apparatus is required to ensure a uniform practice of identifying and countering this type of socially dangerous acts. The article concludes that the methods practiced by hacktivists when carrying out cyber attacks are described and have their own qualifications in the criminal legislation of the Russian Federation. However, it must be taken into account that attacks are often carried out from the territory of other countries and the groups themselves are transnational. Therefore, to successfully counter these destructive phenomena, it is necessary to develop international cooperation in law enforcement and unify responsibility for such acts. Countering hacktivism requires a comprehensive approach that includes legal, technical and social components.

Objetivo: Apresentar e analisar os fatores que corroboram o paradoxo do acesso do idoso à saúde, contrapondo os direitos previstos em lei. Revisão Bibliográfica:  O aumento da expectativa de vida no Brasil despertou a necessidade da criação de leis e Estatutos específicos, a fim de garantir a saúde integral e universal aos senis. Contudo, existem entraves que impedem o acesso à saúde e, consequentemente, o bem-estar dos idosos, dentre eles a falta de recurso material e estrutural para atender essa parcela da população. Diante disso, pontua-se a infraestrutura insatisfatória das unidades de saúde, devido à falta de acessibilidade dos espaços, somado à dificuldade no deslocamento, além da escassez de insumos materiais e a burocracia exacerbada. Outrossim, existe a carência de insumos humanos, como a falta de geriatras e a ausência de um atendimento especializado e inclusivo para os idosos. Considerações finais: A partir do estudo entende-se que as leis estão sendo executadas de forma inadequada, o que prejudica o acesso do idoso à saúde. Logo, faz-se necessário a criação de políticas públicas eficientes que provoquem a mudança do cenário atual.

Published: December 2023

Objetivo: Compreender quais as principais intercorrências ligadas ao uso do ácido hialurônico em tratamentos estéticos. Revisão bibliográfica: O emprego do ácido hialurônico (AH) em tratamentos estéticos está em ascensão devido aos seus benefícios na correção de rugas, assimetrias e no aumento do volume em regiões faciais, dentre outras vantagens. No entanto, sua aplicação não está isenta de riscos. Estudos indicaram que a necrose tecidual é uma das complicações mais preocupantes, ocorrendo principalmente devido à injeção intra-arterial acidental. A discussão sobre o uso da enzima hialuronidase como tratamento para complicações foi abordada, embora seu uso deva ser feito com cautela devido a possíveis intercorrências. Considerações finais: A procura por tratamentos estéticos é influenciada por padrões de beleza e insatisfação pessoal com a autoimagem, e os efeitos adversos podem ter um impacto psicológico nos pacientes. Portanto, uma compreensão profunda das técnicas de aplicação, o respeito às diretrizes de segurança e a busca por atualizações constantes são essenciais para garantir resultados satisfatórios e minimizar intercorrências.

Introduction. Sensors that respond to an increase in temperature, an increase in the concentration of carbon monoxide and smoke are currently used to register a fire hazardous situation. However, at the initial stage of overheating of materials, they release fine aerosol particles, invisible to ordinary vision. Sensors that register the excess concentration of fine particles can be used in information systems for fire early warnings. Goals and objectives. Development and implementation of an information-measuring system for full-scale experimental modeling of a fire hazardous situation. Analysis of aerosol particles released from various materials when they are heated. Methods. A new methodology and technique for conducting experimental studies based on the information-measuring system was developed. Heating of various materials to a temperature at which the release of aerosol particles began took place in a special chamber. The mass and number concentrations of aerosol particles were measured in a wide range of their sizes (from 3 nm to 100 μm) while heating the materials. All selected measuring instruments used in the information-measuring system were of the approved type. Results and discussion. The change in the concentration of aerosol particles during prolonged heating of the materials described by the optimal polynomials found to analyze the results in this study.

Published: December 2023

Introduction. The article discusses scientific approaches and regulatory requirements for the creation and functioning of emergency services at mining facilities. Special emergency rescue services at mining facilities respond to a variety of accidents and incidents by nature, the types and frequency of which depend on the danger of the enterprise, which requires the creation of several specialized emergency rescue services independent of each other. The costs of maintaining emergency rescue units are borne by enterprises, and in the conditions of a significantly large staff of such services, they can become unacceptably high. In this regard, there is an economic justification for combining the personnel of operational duty shifts of several specializations of activities aimed at optimizing the staffing of services and formations. The purpose of the study is to increase the level of safety of mining facilities based on the development of models and algorithms for the creation of complex emergency rescue units capable of responding to all types of possible accidents and incidents. Research methods. The article uses the method of analytical research based on the results of the analysis of work in the field of organizational design of regular structures of emergency services. The results of the study. Approaches to the creation of emergency rescue services at industrial facilities are defined. The models of creation of complex emergency rescue formations and the algorithm of creation of emergency rescue formations at mining facilities are proposed. Conclusion. The current norms for determining the organizational structures of mountain rescue teams do not take into account the types of accidents, the specifics of their development and the response of emergency rescue units to their elimination. The authors have proposed models of complex emergency rescue units at mining facilities, allowing, depending on the chosen option, to respond to all possible accidents and incidents. The proposed models and algorithm allow emergency rescue units at mining facilities to optimize the organizational and staff structure by combining rescuers of various specializations of activity, which in turn can reduce the costs of the enterprise for the maintenance of emergency services.

The use of quadratic interpolation on the example of finding the depth of the zone of possible damage by emergency chemical hazardous substances
Authors:   Lugansk Vladimir Dahl State University, Kirichevskij Rostislav Victorovich , Skrinnikova Anna Vladimirovna ,   Lugansk Vladimir Dahl State University
Published: December 2023

Introduction. When calculating the depth and angle of the zone of possible damage by emergency chemically hazardous substances distributed by air masses, the old, simplified methodology set out in the guidance document RD 52.04.253-90 is used. This technique has a number of limitations, which can significantly affect the resulting size of the affected area and the establishment of other consequences of the accident and measures necessary for its elimination. In the latest version of Building Codes and Regulations SNiP 2.01.51-90 dated 11/26/2020: in code of practice SP 165.1325800.2014, this technique is also used. The purpose of the study is to develop a method for determining the depth and angle of the zone of possible damage during the release of an emergency chemically hazardous substance using quadratic interpolation at input data values other than those provided by the methods of the currently used methodology. Methods. The research uses methods of system analysis, linear algebra, analytical geometry, mathematical statistics. Results and their discussion. The conducted research when calculating the depth of the zone of possible damage by emergency chemically hazardous substances by the proposed method showed that quadratic interpolation mainly gives an increase in the depths of the zones of possible damage, while linear approximation with the same data always reduces the size in comparison with the values taken from the reference tables. Conclusions. The proposed method will be especially useful when finding the angular dimensions of the zone of possible damage, since they are selected too inaccurately. In addition, according to the quadratic interpolation data, it is possible to find optimal (maximum and minimum) values of the depth and angle of the zone of possible damage by emergency chemically hazardous substances. The results of this study can also help in the long term when assessing risks in real time and provide support to decision makers in responding to emergencies. Keywords: emergency chemical hazardous substances; forecasting; affected area; quadratic interpolation; linear approximation.
Risk management of man-made emergencies using the desirability function
Authors:   Voronezh State Technical University, Kalach Andrey Vladimirovich , Martinovich Nikolay Viktorovich ,   Siberian Fire and Rescue Academy of EMERCOM of Russia
Published: December 2023

Introduction. The risks associated with the occurrence of emergencies tend to increase sharply in the future due to the current pace of urbanization and population growth in the world. The ever-increasing complexity and uncertainty of the conditions for the occurrence and course of emergencies challenge existing approaches to assessing the risk of an emergency and dictate new requirements when making decisions in the context of managing measures aimed at preventing and eliminating the consequences of emergencies. This fact determines the relevance of the study. The aim of the study is to improve decision support in risk management under conditions of uncertainty and incompleteness of data using the Harrington desirability function. Research methods. Methods of desirability function, probability theory, system theory and system analysis. Results and their discussion. The article presents the results of assessing the applicability of the Harrington desirability function method for solving risk assessment problems within the framework of modern concepts of critical infrastructure life support. It is shown that on the basis of the proposed approach to risk assessment, it is possible to develop a comprehensive methodology using tools based on the Harrington desirability function. A conceptual approach to the analysis of the state of the integrated security system by determining a generalized indicator is proposed. The methodology for the formation of the generalized indicator assumes its determination in the conditions of man-made emergencies characteristic of a given territory. The analysis of the causal relationships leading to the occurrence of an emergency situation is carried out, the specificity of the conditional applicability of the proposed comprehensive risk assessment methodology using the Harrington desirability function is shown. Thus, comparative analysis and quantitative assessment of risks (natural and anthropogenic) characteristic of the studied territory is the main factor of sustainable development of the territory and competent management of the risk of emergency situations. Conclusion. The proposed approach will significantly expand the possibilities of existing methods of forecasting emergencies. The applicability of the developed conceptual approach to the definition of a generalized condition indicator is shown both for the assessment of the system as a whole and its individual elements in the conditions of man-made emergencies characteristic of a certain territory. The original scale of translation of the values of the desirability function into the level of security is proposed for subsequent comparative analysis. Keywords: complex security; risk; Harrington; logical functions; desirability function.

On the basis of a comparative analysis of foreign, national and interstate standards, the experience of developing test methods for fire detection and alarm systems for various types of environmental factors. Conclusions. In a comparative comparison, the test methods used in foreign and domestic practice for fire detection and alarm systems differ from each other both in the intensity of the tests themselves and in the types of simulating external influences, including exposure time, which is longer in foreign methods than in national and interstate ones. So, during certification foreign tests, the product is subjected to the full scope of tests once after the product is put into mass production and appears on the market. In Russian practice, the product is tested once every five years in full. Keywords: fire automatics; certification tests; external impact; mechanical and climatic factors; reference laboratory.

Published: December 2023

Introduction. Every year the number of documents on standardization in the field of fire safety increases. Such an increase suggests that the level of safety increases by excluding the occurrence of adverse events by establishing a regulatory requirement. However, the practice of applying standardization documents shows that a large number of standardization documents is not a guarantee of safety from harm to legally protected values. There are regulatory conflicts, duplications, excessive requirements. It seems that the issue of security is not related to the number of standardization documents, but to their quality. Assessing the quality of standardization documents requires serious theoretical work. Therefore, in order to ensure the effectiveness of regulatory and technical activities, it is necessary to develop an approach to assessing the quality of standardization documents. Goals and objectives. The purpose of the analysis is to establish approaches to assessing the quality of standardization documents. The objectives of the study are to determine the quality indicator of documents on standardization in the field of fire safety. Research methods. The scientific basis of the research was the theory of system analysis and methods of information synthesis. Results and their discussion. In regulatory and technical activities, as in any industry, a quality indicator should be installed, tracking which, it will be possible evaluate the effectiveness of standardization documents. Monitoring of the quality indicator on an ongoing basis will reduce the time and financial costs for the development and updating of standardization documents. Conclusions. The necessity of developing indicators of the results of standardization work in the national standardization system is determined. The evaluation of the results of standardization work is proposed based on the comparison of the indicator with the base parameter. An indicator for assessing the quality of documents on standardization in the field of fire safety is proposed based on a comparison of the real temperature regime of a fire and the standard temperature regime of certification tests. Keywords: technical regulation; standardization; quality assessment.

Goal and tasks. The goal is to develop a methodology that combines the experience of foreign and domestic developments in the field of voluntary fire protection, which includes an area related to the training of firefighters. Objectives - to study the weakest points in the work of the fire department on the basis of the territorial administration; develop organizational solutions to improve the work of the fire department using new methods of organizing the voluntary fire department; explore the possibilities of supporting the voluntary fire department from enterprises located on its territory; consider the possibility of autonomous operation of the district’s voluntary fire department without the need to interact with regional structures. Methods. System analysis. Synthesis. Results and discussion. As a result of the study, a number of solutions were developed that, according to the authors, can radically change the work of the fire department, taking into account the use of a new approach to the organization of voluntary fire protection based on territorial administration. The use of voluntary units on such a scale can significantly simplify the work of the fire department throughout the region discussed in the article, and can also be used in other regions of Russia, taking into account regional specifics. Conclusion. The developed organizational solutions can be used to restructure the fire department. It is shown that improving the work of the voluntary fire department will increase the efficiency of firefighting, as well as solve a number of issues related to such problems as the distribution of departure areas between departments, the staffing of departments with workers and the necessary firefighting equipment to perform assigned tasks.

Introduction. At present, a large set of requirements is imposed on protective clothing, which is difficult to achieve for a single material and is implemented in a multilayer composite product on a textile basis. One of the promising ways to obtain heat-reflecting fabrics is the application of a plastic heat-resistant polymer layer, either containing metal particles, or subsequently metallized, to a fire-resistant or fire-resistant textile material. In addition, there are a number of problems in complex testing of the obtained composites, which do not meet the characteristics of both textile and bulk or film polymers and metals. State standards, which set out test methods for firefighters' protective clothing, are regularly supplemented, but contain a number of difficult-to-combine requirements. To ensure a set of requirements for protective clothing, composite layers of heat-resistant polyorganosiloxane resins modified with flame retardants of various chemical nature were applied to oxodiazole and silica fabrics and their fire resistance, mechanical strength and ability to reflect light and heat fluxes were studied. The purpose of the study is to study in a complex the dependence of the physical-mechanical, fire-retardant and reflective properties of composite textile materials on nature and the concentration of a flame retardant and functional additives in a metal-containing polyorganosiloxane resin applied to a textile base. Research methods. To obtain the results, we used a comparative system analysis of literature data and experimental results, complex tests of composite fire-resistant reflective products on a textile basis according to the methods of state standard Р 53264-2019. Research results. The conditions for obtaining new textile-based composite materials and their optimal composition have been developed, providing the product with high mechanical strength, incombustibility (oxygen index 29-32 %), high ability to reflect radiation and heat fluxes (IR radiation reflection coefficient 75-80 %). New materials fully meet the requirements of state standard for protective clothing. Conclusion. The tests carried out on certified equipment make it possible to determine the optimal composition of the modified polymer resin and the method of processing oxodiazole and silica fabrics to obtain a heat-, fire-resistant, light- and heat-reflecting material for protective clothing. Keywords: oxodiazole and silica fabric; fire resistance; light and heat reflection; metal-containing polymer binders; flame retardants.

Prevalence of non-communicable diseases among camel milk consumers and non-consumers tribal population aged more than equal to 30 years in rural Rajasthan: A community-based cross-sectional study
Authors: Soni Vaishali , Halder Pritam
Published: December 2023

Objectives:

There is an ongoing trend of increasing burden of non-communicable diseases among the tribal population. The objective was to determine the prevalence of non-communicable diseases among camel milk consumers (CMC) and non-consumers tribal population aged ≥ 30 years in rural Rajasthan.

Material and Methods:

A community-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 60 adults CMC aged >30 years from the Riaka tribe. Same number of non-camel milk consumers (NCMC) were recruited with respect to similar age, gender, and residence from the same tribe. After obtaining informed consent, a semi-structured interview schedule containing sociodemographic dietary characteristics was introduced to all participants in June 2013. The participants were assessed for their random blood glucose, blood pressure, and lipid profile. Data was entered into Microsoft Excel version 2013 and analyzed in Stata version 13.

Results:

Among all, 26.6% male and 23.3% female NCMC participants were found to be suffering from diabetes and in CMC male participants, only 3.3 % were found to be suffering from diabetes. The mean standard deviation (SD) random blood glucose level of CMC and NCMC participants was 98.67 ± 8.81 and 115.50 ± 28.12 mg/dL for male participants and 95.93 ± 5.17 and 110.50 ± 35.22 mg/dL for female participants, respectively, with significant statistical differences. Stage-I hypertension (HTN) was reported in only NCMC male participants, which are further classified as systolic and diastolic stage-I HTN in 4 % and 2% participants, respectively. No cases of stage II HTN were observed. Mean (SD) systolic blood pressures (mmHg) were more in NCMC (122.36 ± 7.67) than CMC (118.84 ± 5.81) female participants with a statistically significant difference (P < 0.05). In this study, we found that total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein levels were less, and high-density lipoprotein level was more in CMC compared to NCMC irrespective of gender.

Conclusion:

The prevalence of non-communicable diseases was relatively less in CMC than NCMC irrespective of gender, suggesting the beneficial effects of camel milk consumption. It is advised that additional research be conducted in the future.

In light of the rapid changes in the business environment and the increased intensity of competition, it is difficult for companies to maintain their market position and the sustainability of their business. Therefore, all these changes affect companies as the competition in the past was between the company and another company. However, the way of competition in our world today has changed in a way that a group of companies competes with another group of companies. Hence, the current study aims to address strategic alliances as an entry point in achieving entrepreneurial success, as one of the modern and important topics in the business world resulting from rapid developments and global openness based on transcending geographical boundaries in today's world. The impact of the dimensions of strategic alliances in achieving the pioneering success of commercial companies were investigated. The research field includes commercial companies in the Dohuk governorate in the Kurdistan region. The research sample was selected from managers in senior management and middle management for a number of companies, which amounted to (60) individuals for data collection purposes. Data analysis was performed for the field side using the statistical software (SPSS V26). The results of the research revealed that strategic alliances have a role in achieving entrepreneurial success and recommended the need to pay attention to the types of alliances that would enhance entrepreneurship in commercial companies.
الأمير أحمد بن مروان رائد التأسيس للعمل الإنساني في الإمارة المروانية الكردية

يعتبر الامير ناصر الدولة أحمد بن مروان (401-453ه/1010-1061) من أشهر الأمراء الذين تعاقبوا على حكم الامارة المروانية. تميزت فترة حكمه بسياسة إنسانية متقدمة تمثلت  في ترسيخ حق اللجوء  اذ فتح باب الامارة  لاستقبال الغرباء (اللاجئين) ، الترحيب بهم، توفير العيش اللائق بهم وبمكانة كل واحد منهم وفوق ذلك التعهد بعدم تسليمهم لطالبيهم  بأي حال من الأحوال، حتى غدت حواضر الإمارة خاصة آمد وميفارقين ملاذا آمنا لهؤلاء الذين من بينهم الملك الأمير، الوزير، العالم ، طالب العلم والتاجر و وفر الأمان والرعاية لكل من يقصد إمارته من طلاب العلم ومن عامة الناس. وبخصوص اللاجئين، نجد الأمير يرفض طلب تسليمهم مهما كان السبب، وهو بذلك يؤسس لمبدأ عدم التسليم ئالقصري للاجئين والذي لم يتم العمل به إلا في اتفاقية عام 1951، أي بعد أكثر من 900 سنة. وهناك مسألة مهمة تحسب للأمير المرواني  وهو حرصه على تعزيز سياسة حسن الجوار وعدم التدخل في الشؤون الداخلية للدول وحل الخلافات بالطرق السلمية.
