Authors: Rivera Queralta Yoira , Motito Marín Ángel E. , Beyris Mazar Alberto M.
Published: June 2024

Introducción y Objetivos: Los inventarios briológicos en los espacios protegidos cubanos apoyan la actualización de los planes de manejos al inventariar las especies, detectar sus amenazas y diseñar acciones para su conservación. El objetivo de esta investigación es caracterizar la brioflora presente en las Reservas Florísticas Manejadas La Caoba y Charrascales de Mícara, Santiago de Cuba, Cuba. 
M&M: En la recolecta de los especímenes se exploraron los hábitats adecuados para la instalación de los briófitos siguiendo el método del Muestro Florístico del Hábitat. En la determinación de los taxones se consultó la bibliografía especializada y las bases de datos. Todo el material colectado fue depositado en la colección Bryophyta del herbario BSC.
Resultados: Se registraron para las Reservas Florísticas Manejadas La Caoba y Charrascales de Mícara 49 taxones infragenéricos de antocerotas, hepáticas y musgos. La reserva La Caoba fue la más diversa (73,5% del total) y los musgos la división mejor representada (55,1%). El sustrato epífito es el más diverso y el Bosque semideciduo mesófilo la formación vegetal mejor representada (83,3%). La totalidad de los taxones amenazados se registraron en la Reserva Florística Manejada La Caoba.
Conclusiones: En las Reservas Florísticas Manejadas La Caoba y Charrascales de Mícara la brioflora se caracteriza por la presencia de taxones de amplia plasticidad ecológica y distribución geográfica. Las condiciones presentes en la reserva Charrascales de Mícara limitan el desarrollo de los briófitos. La diversidad briológica en La Caoba está amenazada por la fragmentación del hábitat debido a las alteraciones del paisaje.

Published: June 2024

Introducción y Objetivos: En el desierto de Atacama ciertas plantas viven aisladas y acotadas a regiones con disponibilidad de agua. La conectividad dentro y entre poblaciones depende de las barreras impuestas por el paisaje y de su capacidad de dispersión. Prosopis flexuosa es una especie con alta importancia económica y ecológica incluida en el Programa de Conservación y Manejo del algarrobo. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar la variabilidad genética y sistema de fecundación de P. flexuosa en el Desierto de Atacama. 
M&M: Se evaluó la diversidad genética y el sistema de fecundación sobre la base de marcadores moleculares microsatélites en una población natural (Quillagua). Se analizó la distribución jerárquica de la varianza genética y los niveles de las coancestrías.
Resultados: Los resultados indican altos niveles de diversidad genética (HE = 0,67-0,65; Ar = 3,8-3,7), fecundación principalmente cruzada (tm = 0,97, ts = 0,85), baja endogamia biparental (11,6%) y paternidad múltiple. La proporción de hermanos completos disminuye cuando se consideran semillas del mismo o diferente fruto (89????16%). Solamente la varianza entre familias resulta significativa (p < 0,001) y las coancestrías promedio estimadas dan cuenta que las progenies familiares no están conformadas solamente por medios hermanos.
Conclusiones: Los resultados son discutidos y relacionados con la dispersión limitada del polen y semillas y su implicancia para el manejo. El estudio del sistema de fecundación de esta población del desierto chileno sugiere que la baja densidad poblacional y la fragmentación del ambiente no influirían en su capacidad de apareamiento.
Minimally Invasive Techniques in Myomectomy and Fertility Outcomes: A Narrative Review of the Current Evidence
Authors: Alexander Kyle G. , Lee Sum-Yu C. , Haddad Christien N. , Tanos Vasilios
Published: June 2024

Objective: This narrative review aims to summarize the current evidence regarding fertility outcomes associated with different minimally invasive surgery (MIS) techniques in myomectomy. Mechanism: Uterine leiomyomas, commonly known as fibroids, are benign tumors affecting women of reproductive age. Surgery, particularly minimally invasive techniques, represents a definitive treatment for symptomatic fibroids, with preservation of fertility being a key consideration. MIS myomectomies, including laparoscopic, robotic-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy (RALM), and mini-laparotomy, are preferred over open laparotomy due to reduced morbidity and quicker recovery times. However, these procedures still carry risks, including uterine scar dehiscence and subsequent effects on pregnancy outcomes. Findings in Brief: Studies reviewed generally indicate favorable pregnancy outcomes across different MIS techniques, although with varying success rates. Conventional laparoscopy and RALM show promising pregnancy rates, akin to those observed with laparotomy. Nonetheless, higher numbers of fibroids removed during RALM correlate with increased rates of preterm births. The literature comparing laparotomy to laparoscopy, as well as across various MIS techniques, presents inconsistent results, likely due to the complexity and heterogeneity of fibroids, which can significantly impact fertility outcomes. Conclusions: Overall, myomectomy, irrespective of the approach employed, is generally associated with favorable fertility outcomes. While there are variations in success rates among different MIS techniques, no significant differences in the mode of delivery or the incidence of complications such as uterine rupture and adhesion formation are noted. Clinicians should consider individual patient factors when selecting the most appropriate technique for myomectomy. Ongoing advancements in surgical technology are likely to impact the landscape of MIS myomectomy and its implications for fertility outcomes. Further research and meta-analyses are warranted to clarify differences between MIS techniques and optimize patient outcomes.
Effect of Serum IL-6 Levels on the Progression of Non-Target Lesions in Patients after Coronary Stenting
Authors: Sha Xiang , Wang Wei , Qiu Jie , Wang Ruzhu
Published: June 2024

Background: percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has become the mainstay of treatment for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Inflammatory factors have been shown to be involved in the initiation and progression of ASCVD. After PCI, the persistence of inflammation, especially the inflammation released at the target lesion, may affect the stability of non-target lesion plaques. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is one of the most common inflammatory factors, however studies about the influence of IL-6 on the progression of non-target lesions (NTLs) of coronary artery are limited. This study investigated whether serum IL-6 levels can affect the progression of NTLs after coronary stent implantation. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study including 441 patients undergoing coronary angiography (CAG) and stent implantation, who had at least one NTL, between January 2019 and December 2021. They underwent followup CAG 9 to 12 months after PCI. Quartile grouping was based on serum IL-6 levels following readmission. The relationship between serum IL-6 levels and the progression of NTLs after coronary stent implantation was analyzed by using logistic regression analysis and restricted cubic spline regression. Predictive value of IL-6 on NTL progression was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results: When compared to the first quartile (Q1) group, the probability of NTL progression was increased in Q2 (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 3.06, 95% CI 1.29–7.29), Q3 (aOR 3.55, 95% CI 1.52–8.26), and Q4 group (aOR 7.51, 95% CI 3.30–17.05), with a trend test p < 0.001. With the increase of IL-6 levels, the risk of progression of NTLs gradually increased, and there was a non-linear relationship between IL-6 and progression of NTLs (p < 0.001). The ROC curve showed that the critical value of the serum IL-6 level was 12.652 pg/mL (area under the curve is 0.673, sensitivity is 54.5%, specificity is 70.9%, p < 0.05). Conclusions: A high serum IL-6 level is an independent risk factor for the progression of NTLs after coronary stent implantation, and has certain predictive value for the progression of NTLs.
Russians’ Personal Savings in the Regional Context
Authors: Alekhin B.I.
Published: June 2024

The purpose of this study is to find empirical evidence of long-run equilibrium relationship between the personal savings ratio and several factors that, in the author’s opinion, determine this ratio. To achieve this purpose, a panel for 82 regions of the Russian Federation for the years 2000–2022 was assembled on the basis of official statistics data. In the descriptive part of the paper, we examined theories of personal savings, saving behavior of the population, the impact of personal savings on economic growth and the reasons why regional authorities should improve the climate for personal savings and growth of the working-age population in their regions. We used the PMG method to estimate our empirical ARDL model and found that the personal savings ratio is mainly determined by the age composition of the regional population and regional inflation, while money income and household final consumption are robust control variables. There is a long-run equilibrium relationship between these variables.

More than 2 000 yeast strains isolated from 1 200 samples mostly collected from Tibet and Yunnan provinces in China were identified as 462 species according to the internal transcribed spacer including the 5.8S rDNA (ITS) and the D1/D2 domains of the large subunit rDNA (LSU) sequence
analyses. Among them, 70 new basidiomycetous yeast species were proposed based on the multi-locus phylogenetic analyses including the D1/D2 domains, the ITS, the small subunit rDNA (SSU), the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (RPB1), the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase II
(RPB2) and translation elongation factor 1-α (TEF1), as well as the phenotypic comparisons. The average nucleotide identity (ANI) analysis with the genomic metric was also used in the evaluation of the species delimitation for the genera Holtermannia, Mrakia
and Takashimella that contain closely related species with low sequence heterogeneity in both ITS and D1/D2 regions. Forty-six new species belonged to 16 genera in the Agaricomycotina, 13 new species occurred in 12 genera in the Pucciniomycotina, three new species
were distributed in three genera in the Ustilaginomycotina, and eight new species were classified in seven newly established genera. One new family was also proposed based on one of these new genera. The analyses revealed several inaccurate species names attributed to genomes deposited
in GenBank, indicating the necessity of a more rigorous quality checks of the genomes deposited in the public databases.

Temporal acuity of vision decreases with eccentricity and is associated with schizotypy
Authors: Foerster Francois Remy , Giersch Anne , Agalliu Paola , Cleeremans Axel
Published: June 2024

Temporal acuity reflects our ability to consciously detect a perceptual change within a short period of time, such as an asynchrony separating two visual events. Asynchrony discrimination skills shape the temporal structure of perception, by determining whether distinct information is bound or segregated in time. Given the crucial role of peripheral vision in everyday tasks, such as dynamically adapting our locomotion, we evaluated asynchrony discrimination in periphery under conditions of natural vision. Further, previous research showed perceptual disturbances in patients with schizophrenia, with defective visual asynchrony processing. Exploring whether such a deficit extends to neurotypical individuals with schizotypal traits and varies across the visual fields is essential given the significance of abnormal perceptual experiences in the schizophrenia spectrum. In this virtual reality study, fifty participants performed a simultaneity judgment task within immersive virtual reality to estimate visual temporal acuity across space and filled the schizotypal personality questionnaire. Participants assessed the presence or absence of a 22 ms asynchrony between the onset of two targets. Targets were located at different eccentricities spanning the whole binocular fields and across horizontal and vertical meridians. Topographic maps were computed to visualize asynchrony discrimination skills across the visual space in two different (natural and artificial) virtual environments. Our results are threefold. First, the temporal acuity estimated in a traditional psychophysical visual context does not generalize to an ecologically-valid landscape scenery, such that asynchrony discrimination is reduced under natural vision conditions. Second, the temporal acuity of vision decreases as the eccentricity of the targets increases, but it remains constant across meridians. Third, this deterioration of temporal coding in peripheral vision concerns non-medicated individuals self-reporting perceptual and cognitive schizotypal traits. The results suggest that distinct temporal mechanisms in central and peripheral vision drive visual temporal acuity. Furthermore, perceptual and cognitive disturbances in the neurotypical population may be linked to abnormal temporal processing in peripheral vision. Overall, these findings may pave the way toward novel investigations into the variety of time experiences across neurotypical and neurodivergent populations.
Performance Feedback Triggers Liberal Detection and Perceptual Confidence Biases in Early Childhood: Implications for metacognitive training
Authors: Soto David , Lallier Marie , Desender Kobe , Elosegi Patxi
Published: June 2024

Metacognition allows us to monitor our own mental processes and the quality of our decisions in order to promote adaptive behavior and learning across different domains. Despite its potential, its direct application in primary school education, where children often exhibit overconfidence biases hindering learning, remains to be systematically evaluated. This study aimed to mitigate overconfidence bias in two groups of 7-year-old children performing a multi-letter array recognition task: one group received feedback during the task whereas the other group did not (N=24 each, 832 trials per participant). Both groups of participants were matched on their reading performance and non verbal IQ. Surprisingly, feedback led to more liberal detection criteria in the letter task, faster choice latencies, and increased confidence biases. Simulations from a drift diffusion model showed that the overconfidence effect in the feedback group was best explained by a decrease in response latencies, originating from a reduction in non-decision time. Thus, providing children with performance feedback may speed up their responses which in turn boosts their feeling of confidence. This study underscores the complexity of using performance feedback to enhance metacognitive monitoring in children. We highlight the need for nuanced protocols to train metacognition that bypass the influence of children's inherent overconfidence biases and discuss potential research directions in this regard.
The fable of state self-control
Authors: Inzlicht Michael , Roberts Brent
Published: June 2024

Trait self-control is highly valued, often equated with moral righteousness and associated with numerous positive life outcomes. This paper challenges the conventional conflation of trait self-control and state self-control. We suggest that while trait self-control is consistently linked to success, state self-control is not the causal mechanism driving these benefits. Trait self-control, sometimes also referred to as conscientiousness, grit, and the ability to delay gratification, predicts better health, wealth, and academic achievement. Conventional wisdom has it that people high in trait self-control reap all these benefits because they engage in more state self-control, defined as the momentary act of resolving conflict between goals and fleeting desires. Despite its intuitive appeal, there are problems with extolling state self-control because of our love for trait self-control. First, empirical evidence suggests that individuals high in trait self-control do not engage in more state self-control but engage it less. Second, changes to state self-control do not reliably and sustainably improve people’s outcomes, as least in the long-term. And third, despite the possibility of dramatic improvements in trait self-control, these improvements are often short lived, with people returning to their baseline trait level over longer time horizons. The roots of this problem are numerous: Imprecise and inaccurate naming of our constructs that lead to construct drift and contamination; ignoring the numerous other facets of conscientiousness like orderliness or industriousness; and not appreciating that traits are sometimes not reducible to states. We suggest that the celebrated benefits of trait self-control arise from mechanisms beyond state self-control and highlight the need for a broader conceptualization of self-control in psychological research and practical interventions.

Published: June 2024

Celem badania było sprawdzenie związku pomiędzy miłością, liczbą dzieci, a poglądami konserwatywnymi. Badanie jest próbą replikacji badania przeprowadzonego przez zespół Piotra Sorokowskiego na społeczności Hadza w Tanzanii (Sorokowski i inni, 2017). Dodatkowo sprawdzono zależnośc pomiędzy poglądami konserwatywnymi, a liczbą dzieci i trzema kompozytami miłości: intymnością, pasją i zaangażowaniem. Badanie przeprowadzono na próbie 53 osób zamieszkujących Jelenią Górę i okolice. Liczba dzieci istotnie pozytywnie koreluje z poglądami konserwatywnymi, natomiast istotnie negatywnie z intymnością i pasją w związku. Najistotniejsza korelacja zachodzi pomiędzy liczbą dzieci, a długością trwania relacji oraz wiekiem ankietowanych.
Generational differences in the strength of the CASA effect
Authors: Heyselaar Evelien
Published: June 2024

The Computers Are Social Actors (CASA) theory1,2 suggests that people interact with social computers as if they are human, exhibiting social behaviors towards these devices.3 This concept has been foundational in the design of various interactive technologies like voice assistants and chatbots. However, technological advancements and widespread adoption of social devices have raised questions about the theory's current relevance.4,5 Here we show that while young adults (18-29) no longer exhibit the CASA effect, older adults, particularly those aged 43.5 to 52, still respond to computers as social entities. This generational difference is likely caused by familiarity and desensitization to social cues from computers. This research advances our understanding of human-computer interaction by demonstrating that the CASA effect is not universally applicable across all age groups in the modern context.
Does the structure of dynamic symptom networks depend on baseline psychopathology in students?
Authors: Jover Martínez Alberto , Lemmens Lotte H.J.M. , Fried Eiko I , Haslbeck Jonas M B , Roefs Anne
Published: June 2024

Network theory conceptualizes mental disorders as systems of dynamic interactions among symptoms and other variables, and proposes that people with psychopathology have distinct networks as compared to healthy people. However, this idea is rarely investigated, and networks are mostly estimated on cross-sectional data. Importantly, as network theory is specified on the within-person level, it is necessary to estimate networks based on intensive time-series data. This study estimated contemporaneous and temporal transdiagnostic networks on time-series data of participants with different levels of psychopathology. 192 university students completed an Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) protocol. A newly developed bootstrap method was used to compare the multi-level Vector Autoregressive (mlVAR) effects between groups. Network connectivity did not differ between groups. Only a few edges differed significantly between groups, with small effect sizes. These results suggest that networks of groups of people with different levels of psychopathology might not differ. Explanations and implications for these results, such as the impact of focusing on heterogeneous groups instead of homogeneous groups or individuals, the relevance of node levels, and methodological and analytical decisions, are discussed.

Technological Challenges: A Case of Secondary-Level Mathematics Teachers’ Integrating ICT in Mathematics Classrooms
Authors: Adhikari Ganesh Prasad
Published: June 2024

In Nepal, the integration of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into mathematics teaching and learning has become a topic of growing interest and importance in the field of mathematics education. Nevertheless, the effective and efficient integration of technology into the classroom environment remains a significant challenge for mathematics teachers. Therefore, this study examines the technological challenges faced by mathematics teachers and the key factors that have the greatest impact on integrating ICT into teaching and learning activities in mathematics classrooms. An online survey design was used in the quantitative research. A structural online survey questionnaire was distributed through Viber, WhatsApp, and Messenger to 135 public and 150 private secondary-level mathematics teachers in Kathmandu Metropolitan City during the academic year 2023–2024. The overall response from mathematics teachers was only 197 (59.23%). The response data was downloaded into Excel and cleaned. Means, standard deviations, and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the cleaned data using the JAMOVI software. The data clearly show that there are no challenges in the use of ICT, professional development, and pedagogical issues. However, technological limitations present challenges from teachers’ perspectives. Additionally, technological limitations, professional development, and pedagogical issues have significant correlations and positive impacts on the use of ICT, with pedagogical issues emerging as the most influential factor. This means that teachers are qualified to integrate ICT into their teaching and learning activities. However, there were technological limitations in mathematics classrooms. Therefore, inadequate access to hardware, lack of technical support, and unreliable Internet connectivity are necessary for mathematics teachers to effectively incorporate ICT into their teaching and learning activities. Furthermore, further research should use a larger sample size to validate these results in diverse educational contexts in Nepal.

Authors: Kesgin Bünyamin
Published: June 2024

Göç, toplumların ve bireylerin hayatlarında mühim değişimlere yol açan bir süreçtir. Bunun yanı sıra göçmen bireyler, doğdukları ya da büyüdükleri yerden farklı bir ülkeye yerleşerek yeni bir yaşam kurma zorunluluğuyla karşı karşıya kalırlar. Bu araştırmanın amacı, Avrupalı Türk göçmenlerde ebeveynlik tutumu ile psikolojik sağlamlık düzeyleri arasındaki ilişkinin belirlenmesidir. Araştırma, ilişkisel tarama modeli kullanılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir ve veriler anket yöntemiyle toplanmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini 313 Türk göçmen oluşturmakta olup örneklem içerisinde bunlardan 149’u erkek ve 164’ü kadın olmaktadır. Verilerin toplanması açısından ‘Yetişkin Psikolojik Sağlamlık Ölçeği (YPSÖ)’, ‘Ebeveyn Tutum Ölçeği (ETÖ)’ ve ‘Demografik Bilgi Formu’ kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizi doğrultusunda sosyal bilimlere yönelik istatistik programı SPSS-22 kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın değişkenleri arasındaki ilişkinin yönünü ve gücünü ortaya koymak için Pearson Korelasyon analizinden yararlanılmıştır. Gruplar arasındaki karşılaştırmalara yönelik olarak ise tek yönlü varyans (ANOVA) ve t testi analizinin kullanımı sağlanmıştır. Araştırmanın bulguları kapsamında, Avrupa’da yaşayan Türk göçmen katılımcılarda psikolojik dayanıklılık ve demokratik ebeveynlik tutumu arasında anlamlı ve pozitif bir ilişki saptanmıştır. Bunun yanı sıra koruyucu ve otoriter ebeveynlik tutumu ile psikolojik dayanıklılık arasında negatif ve anlamlı bir ilişki saptanmıştır. Sonuç olarak Avrupa’da yaşamını sürdüren Türk göçmenlere yönelik olarak psikolojik dayanıklılık seviyeleri arttıkça demokratik ebeveynlik tutumu da artmakta ancak koruyucu ve otoriter ebeveynlik tutumu düşmektedir.

2003 Sonrası Yeniden Yapılandırılan Irak Siyasetinde Sünni Arapların Konumu
Authors: Ulus Sümeyra , Özden Cankara Pınar
Published: June 2024

Irak 1932’den beri ulus devlet inşa sürecini başarı ile tamamlayamamıştır. Ülke bu nedenle başarısız-kırılgan devlet olarak etiketlenmektedir. Ülkede bulunan farklı alt kimlikler uyum içerisinde sisteme entegre edilememiştir. Sünni Araplar, Şii Araplar, Türkmenler ve Kürtler ortak Irak kimliği altında toplanamamış, Saddam Hüseyin döneminde Sünniler ülke siyasetinde ayrıcalıklı konumda olmuştur. 2003 yılında ABD öncülüğünde gerçekleştirilen “Özgürlük ve Demokrasi Operasyonu” Irak’ta kitle imha silahlarını yok etmeyi hedeflememiş aynı zamanda ülkede siyasal bir dönüşümün kapılarını aralamıştır. Şii Arapların siyaset arenasına katılmaları çoğulcu demokrasinin inşası için gerekli görülmüştür. Müdahale sonrası Irak Şiilerine siyasal alan açılırken Sünni Araplar bu durumdan negatif etkilenmiştir. Bu çalışmanın hipotezi Sünni Arapların 2003 müdahalesi sonrası Irak siyasetinde güç kaybı yaşadıklarıdır. Çalışmada Sünni Arapların bazılarının bu nedenle bölgede ortaya çıkan radikal İslamcı örgütlerle temas kurmaya başladıkları sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Üstelik Irak yeniden inşa edilmeye çabalanırken ülkede El Kaide ve IŞİD örgütlerinin de yeşermesiyle birlikte siyasal istikrarsızlık daha da artmış, her seçim dönemi güvenlik sorunu yaşanmıştır. Bugün müdahalenin üzerinden 21 yıl geçmiş olmasına rağmen Irak hala siyasal sorunlarını çözümleyememiştir. 2019 yılından beri ülkede kitlesel gösteriler artmış, bir kez daha halk rejim değişikliği taleplerini dile getirmiştir. Siyasal katılımın ve ekonomide gelir dağılımının adilane şekilde sağlanamayışı ülkedeki siyasal ve ekonomik istikrarsızlığı derinleştirmekte, güç kaybına uğrayan Irak siyasetine başta İran olmak üzere bölge ülkelerinin de çeşitli gruplar üzerinden karışmasına yol açmaktadır.
On the spectral problem for three-dimesional bi-Laplacian in the unit sphere
Authors: Jenaliyev M.T. , Serik A.M.
Published: June 2024

In this work, we introduce a new concept of the stream function and derive the equation for the stream function in the three-dimensional case. To construct a basis in the space of solutions of the NavierStokes system, we solve an auxiliary spectral problem for the bi-Laplacian with Dirichlet conditions on the boundary. Then, using the formulas employed for introducing the stream function, we find a system of functions forming a basis in the space of solutions of the Navier-Stokes system. It is worth noting that this basis can be utilized for the approximate solution of direct and inverse problems for the Navier-Stokes system, both in its linearized and nonlinear forms. The main idea of this work can be summarized as follows: instead of changing the boundary conditions (which remain unchanged), we change the differential equations for the stream function with a spectral parameter. As a result, we obtain a spectral problem for the bi-Laplacian in the domain represented by a three-dimensional unit sphere, with Dirichlet conditions on the boundary of the domain. By solving this problem, we find a system of eigenfunctions forming a basis in the space of solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations. Importantly, the boundary conditions are preserved, and the continuity equation for the fluid is satisfied. It is also noteworthy that, for the three-dimensional case of the Navier-Stokes system, an analogue of the stream function was previously unknown.

Compreende-se que a pandemia Covid-19 forçou um trajeto rápido para o trabalho remoto, afetando significativamente a vida pessoal e profissional, neste sentido o presente trabalho busca abordar os impactos do home-office na vida dos trabalhadores durante a pandemia da Covid-19, analisando a saúde mental como também questões de gênero. Para o presente artigo, foi realizada revisão literária, com uma análise teórica baseada em um cenário feminista interseccional, considerando as diferenças de raça, gênero e classe, demonstrando que os impactos foram sentidos de formas variadas. A pesquisa destaca que, embora o home-office tenha evitado a disseminação do vírus, ele trouxe desafios, notadamente para as mulheres. Estas enfrentam dificuldades adicionais devido à ter duplicado a jornada de trabalho e afazeres domésticos. A falha de uma condição adequada e a ampliação das cobranças profissionais desenvolvidas para problemas de saúde mental, como ansiedade e estresse. A pesquisa sugere a iniciativa de políticas públicas e estratégias organizacionais que promovam um controle sadio entre o trabalho e a vida pessoal, principalmente para mulheres e grupos marginalizados.

The relevance of the work was to determine whether the loin eye area of m. longissimus dorsi as a criterion for evaluating the yield of high-value cuts from beef carcasses, is associated with beef characteristics from bulls of the Ukrainian Black-and-White dairy breed. The purpose of the study was to establish correlations between the loin eye area and the slaughter characteristics by the chemical composition, sensory, physical and technological properties of beef. The correlation between the cross-sectional area of the oblong muscle and slaughter indicators, the quality of carcasses, the chemical composition, sensory, physical and technological properties of beef was studied in the bulls of Ukrainian Black-and-White dairy breed (UBWDB) aged from 18 to 24 months. A linear correlation was established between the loin eye area and the slaughter weight (r = 0.404; P>0.95), the amount of muscle tissue (r=0.355; P>0.95), including the highest (r=0.680; P>0.999) and the first (r = 0.501; P > 0.99) grades, the content of fat tissue in the carcass (r = 0.477; P > 0.99). The loin eye area correlated inversely (r = -0.607; P > 0.95) with t he amount lost in boiling beef, the amount of second-class muscle tissue (r = -0.377; P > 0.95), the development of subcutaneous fat (r = -0.395; P > 0.95), the total ash mass (r = -0.560; P > 0.95), the juiciness of boiled meat (r = -0.522; P > 0.95), taste and aroma of broth (r = -0.587; P > 0.95). There was a tendency for an inverse correlation between the loin eye area and the total fat content of beef (r = -0.119), protein (r=-0.401), dry matter (r=-0.403), acidity (r=-0.458), muscle tissue colour (r=-0.126), conformation (r = -0.127), penetration (r = -0.477), taste (r = -0.214) and aroma (r = -0.363) of boiled meat, tenderness (r = -0.256), residue after chewing (r = -0.442), the thickness of broth (r = -0.207), and to a linear correlation – with the amount of tendons and ligaments (r = 0.331), marbling (r = 0.162), the colour of fat tissue on the carcass (r = 0.276), transparency of the broth (r = 0.180). The practical significance of the data is to obtain knowledge that allows formulating marketing strategies for predicting food quality, quantity of premium and first-grade beef, its technological properties and intended use based on the correlation between the loin eye area of m. longissimus dorsi

The article examines the role of the deposit portfolio in providing the resource base of a commercial bank. The theoretical aspects of forming the deposit portfolio, its components, and influencing factors are considered. To determine the financial stability and the bank’s ability to provide loans and invest funds in various types of assets, an analysis of the relationships between the bank’s resource policy and its deposit portfolio has been conducted. Methods and strategies influencing the formation of the deposit portfolio and its role as an important instrument of resource policy are investigated. The main factors of deposit portfolio management are analyzed, including deposit mobilization strategies, asset allocation, risk profile, and diversification. The instruments used for deposit portfolio management are described in detail, including the liquidity model, risk assessment model, deposit demand forecasting model, competitive environment analysis, and others. Ways to maximize profits from deposits are explored, including the use of optimal interest rates, development of new products and services to attract clients. To form the basis of the research, the dynamics of the efficiency indicators of the deposit policy of PJSC CB «PrivatBank» for the years 2019-2023 were analyzed. The practical aspects of deposit portfolio management are examined, and recommendations for its optimization are provided. Specifically, issues such as creating effective mechanisms for attracting new clients, developing deposit portfolio products, considering client interests, and ensuring a high level of service are investigated. Factors such as risk, liquidity, profitability, and stability are analyzed to determine the optimal allocation of deposit resources.
