Knowledge-Intensive Economy of the North-Western Regions of Russia
Authors:   Institute for Regional Economic Studies Russian Academy of Sciences, Rumyantsev A.  A.
Published: November 2021

At the initial stage of innovation management at the regional level, it is necessary to identify the general level of innovation in the economy, which can be done by looking at such indicator as knowledge intensity. The purpose of the study is to evaluate knowledge intensity of the north-western Russian regions. We focused primarily on the regions whose economies are dominated by extractive industries and also considered the question as to how their innovation potential can be enhanced in the future. From the methodological perspective, we place the main emphasis on the costs, more specifically, we calculate the ratio of R&D costs to gross regional product. For our calculations, we used state statistics. As a result, we found that the economies of the north-western Russian regions are generally characterized by low knowledge intensity. The situation can be improved by encouraging businesses and universities to collaborate to foster innovation and through targeted state programs aimed at stimulating the process of innovation. Our findings can be of interest to regional policy-makers. Further research can take the proposed methodology further and include not only cost-related but also performance-related indicators into the evaluation of knowledge intensity.
‘Open’ Innovation and Institutional Protection of Intellectual Property
Authors:   Institute of Economics of the Ural Branch of RAS, Volkova T.I.
Published: November 2021

The study offers a comprehensive view on the process which can be described as dialectics of ‘open’ innovation and institutional protection of intellectual property. Although in the ICT sphere this process is already a well-established fact, in research literature only its theoretical and methodological aspects have received some fragmented attention. This study relies on the empirical evidence concerning competitive strategies and tactics of international high-tech companies. The study shows the growing complexity in the configuration of relations and intellectual property transactions between the stakeholders. Strategies and interactions often acquire a hybrid nature not only in their form (network-based, based on digital platforms, alliances, etc) but also in their content (due to the diversity of the possible combinations of ‘open’ and ‘closed’ innovations). The aim of this study is to show the potential of high tech companies’ strategies and business models underpinned by the dialectics of ‘open’ innovation and intellectual property protection. A special focus is made on the theoretical and methodological foundations of the connection between the ‘open’ and ‘closed’ innovation types. There is a system-forming factor that determines the sophisticated, often contradictory, multi-agent mechanism for the reproduction of high profitability of companies. At the core of this factor is the intellectual capital — the commitment and competence of workers (developers, managers, and experts), who have received specialized interdisciplinary training. Conceptually, this study relies on the institutional approach to economic theory and innovation management theory. It also relies on the systemic, dialectical, and functional methods as well as on the decomposition method, methods of comparative analysis and structurization. The research findings can be used by policy makers to enhance innovation in Russia and to make its regions more competitive on the international arena.

Published: November 2021

The Covid-19 pandemic has also triggered serious socio-economic, social, and political crises and an important public health crisis in infected countries. The bibliometric analysis method was used in this study to uncover the current situation in health care marketing and to determine research gaps. A total of 1669 studies were reached using the keywords "health service and marketing," "health management and marketing," "health marketing," and "healthcare and marketing." This research examines studies published since 1981, when the first study in health marketing was conducted. Before the Covid19 pandemic, medical tourism, social marketing, and pharmacovigilance were among the most common keywords used by authors. In the studies carried out in the Covid19 pandemic, it is seen that the keywords hospitals, marketing communication, machine learning, and artificial intelligence are preferred, respectively.
Differential expression of chromosome 14 open reading frame 180 in cancers of the breast.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: November 2021

Breast cancer affects women at relatively high frequency (1). We mined published microarray datasets (2, 3) to determine in an unbiased fashion and at the systems level genes most differentially expressed in the primary tumors of patients with breast cancer. We report here significant differential expression of the gene encoding chromosome 14 open reading frame 180, C14orf180, when comparing primary tumors of the breast to the tissue of origin, the normal breast. C14orf180 was also differentially expressed in the brain metastases of patients with metastatic breast cancer. C14orf180 mRNA was present at significantly lower quantities in tumors of the breast as compared to normal breast tissue. Analysis of human survival data revealed that expression of C14orf180 in primary tumors of the breast was correlated with overall survival in patients with HER2+ subtype cancer, demonstrating a relationship between primary tumor expression of a differentially expressed gene and patient survival outcomes influenced by PAM50 molecular subtype. C14orf180 may be of relevance to initiation, maintenance or progression of cancers of the female breast.

JENIS HARTA YANG DIZAKATI,NISAB DAN HAUL
Authors: MUNIRA
Published: November 2021

Zakat sebagai rukun Islam merupakan kewajiban setiap muslim yang beragama Islam dan yang mampu untuk membayarnya dan diperuntukkan bagi mereka yang menerimanya. Dengan pengelolaan yang baik zakat merupakan sumber yang potensial yang dimanfaatkan untuk memajukan kesejahteraan umum bagi seluruh masyarakat hal ini di perkuat dengan keluarnya Undang-Undang Nomor 38 Tahun 1999 Tentang Pengelolaan Zakat, Keputusan Menteri Agama No.581 Tahun 1999, dan Keputusan Direktur Jendral Bimbingan Masyarakat Islam dan Urusan Haji No. D/291Tahun 2000 Tentang Pedoman Teknis Pengelolaan Zakat. Sedangkan Secara sosiologis zakat adalah refleksi dari rasa kemanusiaan, keadilan, keimanan, serta ketaqwaan yang mendalam yang harus muncul dalam sikap orang-orang kaya. Allah swt melalui agama-nya yang lurus, yakni dinul islam telah memerintahkan kepada kita untuk melaksanakan kewajiban membayar zakat dan sekaligus memerintahkan untuk mengelola zakat tersebut dengan baik. Zakat sebagai salah satu rukun islam yang lima yaitu syahadat, shalat, zakat, puasa dan haji sangat penting peranannya dan tidak boleh diabaikan. Oleh sebab itu hokum zakat adalah wajib ain (fardhu’ain) atas setiap muslim yang telah memenuhi syaratsyarat tertentu dan merupakan kewajiban yang disepakati oleh umat islam dengan berdasarkan dalil Al-qur’an, hadits, dan ijma. Bahkan di dalam Al-Qur’an kata zakat dan shalat di dalam Al-Qur’an disebutkan sebanyak 82 kali. Setiap perintah shalat selalu diikuti dengan perintah zakat, sehingga zakat memiliki kedudukan yang sama dengan shalat, tidak seperti kewajiban-kewajiban lainnya seperti puasa dan haji. Penyebutan yang beriringan ini, artinya zakat dan shalat tidak dapat dipisahkan. Shalat merupakan ibadah pokok yang berdimensi vertikal atau transendental, yaitu habluminallah, sedangkan zakat merupakan ibadah pokok dalam islam yang berdimensi sosial atau habluminannas.
“You are a useful person”: Economic inequality leads people to approach instrumental others
Authors: Cheng Lei , Hao Mingyang Myron , Wang Xijing , li zifei , Wang Fang
Published: November 2021

Economic inequality has been shown to increase social distance. However, we proposed that in more unequal societies, people’s affiliation with others depends on whether the relationship is instrumental to self-enhancement goals. The results from four experiments (total N = 837) supported our proposition. We found that economic inequality increased people’s focus on the instrumentality aspects of others (Experiment 1). In a work setting, economic inequality prompted people to choose colleagues who were instrumental in achieving their performance goals as partners (Experiment 2). Moreover, the effect could be extended to situations where there is no clear benefit. Specifically, participants in high-inequality contexts tended to approach instrumental targets more than those in low-inequality contexts, and the effect was driven by the salience of self-enhancement goals (Experiments 3-4). Taken together, our findings suggest that economic inequality encourages instrumentality orientation in social interactions, which changes how people view relationships and interact with others.

Background: In 2015, the International Diabetes Federation reported that there were 415 million adultsaged 20 to 79 with diabetes. Indonesia is among the 10 countries with the high number of diabetic patientsand is ranked 7th in the world with the number of patients reaching 10.2 million. Diabetes management canbe done through controlling blood sugar through 4 pillars, namely education, diet, exercise, andmedication. However, the current phenomena show that many diabetics have poor dietary control so theyfail maintain their blood sugar within its normal limits and are at greater risk for diabetes complications.However, we can still find diabetic patients who are able to improve their diet and control their blood sugar.Therefore, getting information from them, especially related to their experience in controlling their diet, isexpected to provide hope and motivation for others. Hence, this study aims to find out and expolore theexperience of diabetics with controlled blood sugar and dietMethods: This study uses a qualitative research method with a descriptive phenomenology approach.

Time-dependent emotional memory transformation: divergent pathways of item memory and contextual dependency
Authors: Cox Wouter , Meeter Martijn , Kindt Merel , van Ast Vanessa Anna
Published: November 2021

Emotional memory can persist strikingly long, but it is believed that not all its elements are protected against the fading effects of time. So far, studies of emotional episodic memory have mostly investigated retention up to 24h post-encoding, and revealed that central emotional features (items) are usually strengthened, while contextual binding of the event is reduced. However, even though it is known for neutral memories that central versus contextual elements evolve differently with longer passage of time, the time-dependent evolution of emotional memories remains unclear. Hypothetically, compared to neutral memories, emotional item memory becomes increasingly stronger, accompanied by accelerated decay of – already fragile – links with their original encoding contexts, resulting in progressive reductions in contextual dependency. Here, we tested these predictions in a large-scale study. Participants encoded emotional and neutral episodes, and were assessed 30 minutes (N = 40), one day (N = 40), one week (N = 39), or two weeks (N = 39) later on item memory, contextual dependency, and subjective quality of memory. The results show that, with the passage of time, emotional memories were indeed characterized by increasingly stronger item memory and weaker contextual dependency. Interestingly, analyses of the subjective quality of memories revealed that stronger memory for emotional items with time was expressed in familiarity, whereas increasingly smaller contextual dependency for emotional episodes was reflected in recollection. Together, these findings uncover the time-dependent transformation of emotional episodic memories, thereby shedding light on the ways healthy and maladaptive human memories may develop.
Do item-dependent context representations underlie serial order in cognition? Commentary on Logan (2021)
Authors: Osth Adam F , Hurlstone Mark J.
Published: November 2021

Logan (2021) presented an impressive unification of serial order tasks including whole report, typing, and serial recall in the form of the context retrieval and updating (CRU) model. Despite the wide breadth of the model’s coverage, its reliance on encoding and retrieving context representations that consist of the previous items may prevent it from being able to address a number of critical benchmark findings in the serial order literature that have shaped and constrained existing theories. In this commentary, we highlight three major challenges that motivated the development of a rival class of models of serial order, namely positional models. These challenges include the mixed-list phonological similarity effect, the protrusion effect, and interposition errors in temporal grouping. Simulations indicated that CRU can address the mixed list phonological similarity effect if phonological confusions can occur during its output stage, suggesting that the serial position curves from this paradigm do not rule out models that rely on inter-item associations, as has been previously been suggested. The other two challenges are more consequential for the model’s representations, and simulations indicated the model was not able to provide a complete account of them. We highlight and discuss how revisions to CRU’s representations or retrieval mechanisms can address these phenomena and emphasize that a fruitful direction forward would be to either incorporate positional representations or approximate them with its existing representations.
Increased Pressure Lowers Trust Among Unvaccinated: Effects of the Announcement of Re-Introducing Covid-Passports in Denmark
Authors: Jørgensen Frederik Juhl , Bor Alexander , Petersen Michael Bang
Published: November 2021

On November 8, 2021, the Danish government held a press conference re-introducing COVID-19 passports both to mitigate the recent surge in COVID-19 infections and to put more pressure on still unvaccinated people to take up the vaccine. The press conference was also notable for the Prime Minister, Mette Frederiksen, condemning the unvaccinated in unprecedentedly harsh words. While new vaccinations increased in the weeks following the press conference, we show that the press conference had unintended, negative consequences. We analyze daily, nationally representative survey data (total N = 25K) employing a difference-in-differences design. We demonstrate that the press conference broadened by 25-33% the already large gaps between vaccinated and unvaccinated citizens on four out of five key psychological antecedents of health compliance. Most notably, we find that trust in the strategy of managing the COVID-19 epidemic decreased by 11 percentage points among the unvaccinated but stayed high among the vaccinated. When considering “pressure” as a pandemic management strategy it is important to be aware of these unintended costs and how they may shape the unvaccinated citizens’ compliance with other health advice and their overarching support for the political system.
The Musical Abilities, Pleiotropy, Language, and Environment (MAPLE) Framework for Understanding Musicality-Language Links Across the Lifespan

Published: November 2021

Using individual differences approaches, a growing body of literature finds positive associations between musicality and language-related abilities, complementing prior findings of links between musical training and language skills. Despite these associations, musicality has been often overlooked in mainstream models of individual differences in language acquisition and development. To better understand the biological basis of these individual differences, we propose the Musical Abilities, Pleiotropy, Language, and Environment (MAPLE) framework. This novel integrative framework posits that musical and language-related abilities likely share some common genetic architecture (i.e., genetic pleiotropy) in addition to some degree of overlapping neural endophenotypes, and genetic influences on musically and linguistically enriched environments. Drawing upon recent advances in genomic methodologies for unraveling pleiotropy, we outline testable predictions for future research on language development and how its underlying neurobiological substrates may be supported by genetic pleiotropy with musicality. In support of the MAPLE framework, we review and discuss findings from over seventy behavioral and neural studies, highlighting that musicality is robustly associated with individual differences in a range of speech-language skills required for communication and development. These include speech perception-in-noise, prosodic perception, morphosyntactic skills, phonological skills, reading skills, and aspects of second/foreign language learning. Overall, the current work provides a clear agenda and framework for studying musicality-language links using individual differences approaches, with an emphasis on leveraging advances in the genomics of complex musicality and language traits.
Moving beyond "nouns in the lab": Using naturalistic data to understand why infants' first words include uh-oh and hi
Authors: Casey Kennedy , Potter Christine , Lew-Williams Casey , Wojcik Erica H
Published: November 2021

Why do infants learn some words earlier than others? To explain how and when words are learned, existing theories of word learning prioritize visual information and draw mainly on lab-based studies of noun-to-object mapping. However, words that are more abstract than object nouns, such as uh-oh, hi, more, up, and all-gone, are typically among the first to appear in infants’ vocabularies. We combined a behavioral experiment with naturalistic observational research to explore how infants learn and represent this understudied category of high-frequency, routine-based non-nouns, which we term ‘everyday words.’ In Study 1, we found that conventional eye-tracking measures of comprehension were insufficient to capture 10- to 16-month-old infants’ emerging understanding of everyday words. In Study 2, we analyzed the visual and social scenes surrounding caregivers’ and infants’ use of everyday words in a naturalistic video corpus. This ecologically-motivated research revealed that everyday words rarely co-occurred with consistent visual referents, making their early learnability difficult to reconcile with dominant word learning theories. Our findings instead point to complex patterns in the types of situations associated with everyday words that could contribute to their early representation in infants’ vocabularies. By leveraging both experimental and observational methods, this investigation underscores the value of using naturalistic data to broaden theories of early learning.

Published: November 2021

Background: Undernutrition among children has become a major public health issue due to the high risk of morbidity and mortality involving this vulnerable age group. This study focused on the rural population, especially among the Dayak children in Sarawak, Malaysia. Methodology: This community-based cross-sectional study was conducted in Sarawak’s rural areas using a multistage stratified cluster sampling technique. Data were collected through face-to-face interviews using an interviewer-guided questionnaire. The nutritional status of the under-five children was measured according to the World Health Organization guidelines. The nutritional indicators were calculated as z-scores. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed using SPSS to identify the factors associated with nutritional status. Results: The prevalence of undernutrition among the under-five Dayak children in the rural areas of Sarawak was 39.6%. The analysis suggested that wasting was predominantly associated with parental education levels of primary and below, poor wealth index, environmental and sanitation issues, children with history of low birth weight, shorter duration of exclusive breastfeeding, and poor appetite. Stunting was high within the age group of <3 years old and was associated with parents’ occupation and household wealth index. Low parental education, poor wealth index, environmental and sanitation issues, poor appetite, and the children’s recent illness predicted underweight. Conclusion: These findings imply that a multi-sectoral and multi-dimensional approach is essential to address undernutrition in rural settings. Improvement on households’ socioeconomy, environment and sanitation should be emphasised to reduce undernutrition among the children.

Authors: Sundas Sunanda , Sah Barun Kumar , Dhakal Neha , Rai Amita , Joshi Neera
Published: November 2021

Background: Early childhood caries (ECC) is major oral health problem of young children. Risk factors for ECC are poor oral hygiene and feeding practices. Prevalence and severity of ECC is increasing with change in lifestyle and diet pattern in developing countries.
Objectives: To assess the association between feeding practices and severity of early childhood caries in preschool children.
Methods: An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted with convenient sample of 96 children up to six years age in Peoples Dental College from July to December 2020. Clinical examination included the recording of dental caries (dmft) using WHO criteria. The self-validated questionnaire consisting seven questions about feeding practices was asked to mothers. The Chi-square test was performed to determine association between severity of ECC and feeding pattern.
Results: Mean dmft was 6.77 ± 5.91. Prevalence of severe-ECC (S-ECC) was highest in youngest age group. Caries experience was similar in breast fed, bottle fed, and mixed. There was no significant difference in non-severe ECC and ECC in relation to duration of breast or bottle feeding but frequency of night feeding was associated with S-ECC. Children given ready-made infant formula solid food had more S-ECC (13, 92%) compared to non-severe ECC (1, 7.1%) which was statistically significant. Children given homemade gram flour food were noted to have less of S-ECC (5, 27.5%) than nonsevere ECC (13, 72.5%) which was statistically significant.
Conclusion: Present study revealed that multiple night feeding and weaning with readymade food are significant factors for S-ECC.

pH buffers of weak organic acids and bases are essential in capillary electrophoresis (CE) analyses, primarily when contactless conductivity detectors (C4D) are used. However, the preparation of a buffer with a known concentration of one component for use as a background electrolyte (BGE) in CE-C4D usually requires a pH adjustment to the desired value and an approximate calculation to estimate the concentration of the second component. This study developed software that allowed determining the concentration of one component when knowing the concentration of another component and the pH of the solution, taking into account the influence of ionic strength. The software was built in C# language with Windows Form interface on Microsoft Visual Studio. With the concentrations calculated from the developed software, the differences (|ΔpH|) between pH values of the obtained BGEs in practice and the desired values were smaller than 0.07, corresponding to the errors of less than 2%.

Organic fertilizer or compost is an essential product in the current trend of high-tech agricultural development. Compost stability is not only an important quality parameter but can also be used to monitor the efficiency of the composting process. This study developed a device to evaluate the stability of compost based on the oxygen consumption method using the principle of pressure measurement. This homemade device has improved design, overcoming existing weaknesses in commercial equipment with the same operating principle. In which, the compost sample is put in the containers placed in the middle of the bottle while the produced CO2 is absorbed by the KOH solution at the bottom. The device is capable of working independently with the data recorded on the microSD card without connecting to a computer. The device is operationally tested in the laboratory to assess the oxygen consumption of two actual compost samples. The results showed that these samples both meet the EU’s regulations on compost stability with oxygen consumption in 4 days (AT4) less than 10.0 mg O2/g compost.

Berdasarkan permasalahan tersebut, dilakukan penelitian guna mengembangkan Aplikasi Virtual Tour yang berbasis Multimedia Interaktif, di mana aplikasi ini diharapkan dapat membantu agar Pura Taman Ayun tetap eksis di masa Pandemi COVID-19 ini, sekaligus memberikan edukasi ke masyarakat mengenai Sejarah Pura Taman Ayun. Dalam melakukan penelitian ini, penulis menggunakan metode MDLC (Multimedia Development Life Cycle), dan untuk melakukan pengujian agar dapat mengetahui kesalahan-kesalahan fungsional yang terjadi pada aplikasi, penulis menggunakan metode black box testing. Berdasarkan hasil pengujian yang penulis lakukan, aplikasi sudah dapat berjalan sesuai dengan yang diharapkan, sehingga Aplikasi Virtual Tour Pura Taman Ayun Berbasis Multimedia Interaktif sudah dapat diimplementasikan ke masyarakat.

O processo de ensino-aprendizagem nos cursos de engenharia passa por inúmeros desafios atualmente. As contínuas mudanças tecnológicas, juntamente com a desmotivação dos estudantes, demonstram a necessidade de recursos didático-pedagógicos mais atrativos e alinhados às exigências do mercado de trabalho. Além disso, as adaptações ao ensino remoto nas universidades, motivadas pela pandemia de COVID-19, enfatizaram a importância da evolução dos métodos de ensino-aprendizagem. Dessa forma, as metodologias ativas mostram-se grandes aliadas para a modernização da sala de aula e para a melhoria no desempenho acadêmico e desenvolvimento de novas competências por parte dos discentes. Assim, este trabalho teve como objetivo analisar as percepções tanto de graduandos como de docentes sobre as experiências de utilização de metodologias ativas de ensino-aprendizagem no curso de Engenharia Civil da Universidade Federal de Santa Maria, RS, e identificar as mudanças na aplicação e nos resultados alcançados entre os formatos presencial e remoto. Para tal, as opiniões de professores e alunos foram obtidas mediante a aplicação de questionários e realização de entrevistas, e as respostas foram analisadas com ferramentas estatísticas e de avaliação qualitativa de nuvens de palavras. Assim, percebeu-se que grande parte dos docentes compreendem a importância das metodologias ativas e aplicam diferentes tipos nas disciplinas, e que os estudantes reconheceram uma contribuição positiva na aprendizagem, mostrando interesse na experimentação ativa, resolução de problemas e trabalhos em grupo. Porém, evidenciaram-se dificuldades na implementação das metodologias e limitações para alcançar os objetivos pretendidos, assim como alterações nos recursos didático-pedagógicos empregados devido à migração para o formato remoto.
لنتخيّل بدائل فلسطين المحلّانية: الاستعمار الاستيطاني وسياسة المتحف
Authors: أبو لغد ليلى
Published: November 2021

إن التأملات المطروحة في هذه الدراسة، حول مآزق فلسطين السياسية وعلاقتها بتجارب الأماكن والشعوب المستعمرة الأخرى، مستوحاة من الاختمار الفكري الراهن بشأن الاستعمار الاستيطاني في حقل الدراسات الأصلانية والمحلّنية الناقدة، وحقل الدراسات الفلسطينية مؤخرًا. تتأمل هذه الدراسة في المتاحف وطقوس الاعتراف الليبرالي المتنازَع عليها في أميركا الشمالية وأستراليا، من خلال تقصّي وعود المخيلات الجديدة للسيادة وتقرير المصير ومزالقها الناشئة عن حراك الشعوب الأصلانية، بهدف تسليط الضوء على الاختلافات الواضحة لدى أحوال الفلسطينيين تحت الحكم الإسرائيلي وعلى المعنى الجذري لازدهار المشاريع الثقافية الفلسطينية مؤخرًا. تدّعي الدراسة، مرتكزةً بالخصوص على تاريخ المتحف الفلسطيني )الذي افتتح في بيرزيت في عام 2016 (، أن إنتاجية إطار الاستعمار الاستيطاني تكمن في أشكال التضامن الجديدة التي يحدثها وفي قدرته على فتح المخيلة السياسية الفلسطينية، بدلً من توصيفه المباشر للوضع على أرض الواقع.
الإسلاموفوبيا ومعاداة الساميّة والصهيونية والاستعمار الاستيطاني
Authors: فيراسيني لورينزو
Published: November 2021

تبحث هذه الدراسة في علاقة الإسلاموفوبيا بمعاداة الساميّة في سياق التحوّل الأخير الذي شهدته أوساط اليمين الأوروبي الراديكالي نحو مواقف مؤيدة لإسرائيل، مبتعدًا بذلك عن معاداته التقليدية للساميّة. وبقطع النظر عمّا لهذا التحوّل من تجلّيات أميركية وأسترالية، فإن هذه الدراسة تؤكد على الدور التأسيسي الذي تؤدّيه المخيالات الاستعمارية والاستعمارية الاستيطانية في تغذية العلاقات الدينامية بين هذا النوع من ظواهر الرهاب، ومن ثم تخلص إلى أن تعبيرات الإسلاموفوبيا الحالية يمكن اعتبارها معاداة ساميّة بديلة.
