Development of Place Branding, Its Features
Authors: Shcheglova A. S.
Published: February 2024

Currently, the problem of studying and developing place branding is acute. It helps the territory become attractive in the eyes of investors, tourists, and entrepreneurs, which helps to increase local budget, develop the territory’s infrastructure and in general push the standard of living up. The practice of place branding is constantly changing and improving; there is no single recipe for its development, which gives a reason to a profound and more extensive study of it. The fragmentation of approaches to place branding as a process does not make it possible to come to a single definition. At the same time, relative unity is observed with regard to the purpose of branding. Most see it as attracting people, material and monetary resources, etc. to the territory. In order for the territory’s brand to develop successfully, to attract investors, to reduce the number of residents leaving, to increase the number of tourists and entrepreneurs, and to improve the overall infrastructure, it is necessary to work on it consistently.

Authors: Rakitina I. S. , Delikova T. G. , Kostoev Z. M. , Marzaganov A. Kh.
Published: February 2024

The dynamics of the housing construction industry can be seen as an indicator of the level of social and economic development of the country. The attractiveness of residential real estate is largely determined by price availability for the population. However, it is important to consider demographic factors. Therefore, the study assessed the effects of migration, along with parameters such as salary dynamics, mortgage lending and construction volumes of the Russian Federation. The purpose of the study is to justify the importance of migration dynamics to change the value of residential real estate. The subject of study is the existence of dependence of migration processes and pricing dynamics taking into account additional parameters of the country’s economy. The object of the study is pricing in the residential real estate market in Russia. Research methods are vector autoregression models (standard and Bayesian ones). Monthly data of official statistics for Russia for 2011–2021 as well as scientific articles and published studies of employees of the Bank of Russia were used as the information base. The initial hypothesis of the study is that the factor of migration significantly affects the final indicator of the cost of housing. The analysis made it possible to determine the importance of factors that have a sustainable long-term impact on the dynamics of prices in the residential real estate market.
Labor and Educational Migration оf Mongolian Residents to South Korea and Canada
Authors: Bredikhin A. V.
Published: February 2024

At the beginning of the 21st century. Northeast Asia has become one of the centers of economic development and growth. There are many reasons for this. One of the main ones is the rapid growth of the economies of China, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. Thus, China has become the largest economic force in the region. Japan and South Korea have powerful industrial and technology companies that successfully compete in the global market. In addition, Northeast Asia has a high level of education and science, so China, Japan and South Korea are investing in scientific research, which attracts highly qualified specialists to these countries. Across the Pacific Ocean from Asia, on the North American continent, Canada has a strong economy based on industries such as natural resources, manufacturing, finance and innovation. As part of this study, the author examined the reasons for the migration of Mongolian residents to South Korea and Canada.
Destabilization of Russian-Moldavian relations during Special Military Operation
Authors: Krokhin O. O.
Published: February 2024

This study is devoted to the analysis of the current state of Russian-Moldavian relations. The key events of recent years that influenced bilateral relations are examined: the coming to power in Moldova of a pro-Western establishment led by Maia Sandu, the adoption of a law on changing the state language, the gas crisis and the dispute over the debt for Russian gas supplies. It is noted that the new Moldovan leadership is pursuing an openly anti-Russian course aimed at rapprochement with the EU and Romania. This leads to cutting back on economic and humanitarian cooperation between countries. Tensions in the energy sector are rising. The author comes to the conclusion that Kishinev’s actions cause serious damage to bilateral relations. Restoring a constructive dialogue requires adequate steps on the part of the Moldovan leadership, which they are not yet ready for.

State in Context of Dataism: Swarm of Political Agents and Data Management in Russia and the World
Authors: Mukhametov D. R.
Published: February 2024

The article analyzes the transformation of the state in context of dataism. Dataism is a paradigm that (1) recognizes the crucial role of data in policy preparation and evaluation, (2) considers all systems as a structures of data exchange between decentralized agents for coordination and collective decision-making. In context of dataism the state implements information incentives through data policy to receive feedback from citizens and businesses in the form of engagement in management, value creation, production of local innovations. Dataism transforms the state in a swarm of political agents, where collective decision-making becomes possible through data exchange. The swarm model requires effective data management as the creation of organizational, regulatory and infrastructural conditions for the use of the data in policy implementation. The article presents a comparison of the data management results in Russia and different groups of countries within the framework of the global data management map. Russia has significant results in regulatory and structural measurements of data management, but additional solutions are needed in participatory and accountability/transparency measurements. The directions of improving data management in Russia include open data policy, transparency of automated systems, crowdsensing; intersectoral data exchange.

The Role of Ideology in Modern Information Warfare
Authors: Kaftan V. V. , Pogorelyy A. P.
Published: February 2024

With the development of new communication technologies, as well as ways of mentally influencing the audience, a new type of military conflict has emerged —  the information warfare. The main emphasis in the information warfare is not on inflicting physical violence on the enemy, to bend him to your will, but on the total ideological impact and information suppression of both the enemy army and the population. During such a war, it is information superiority in the media space which actually determines who will be the culprit of the war, and who will be the winner, who will act as the aggressor and who will be the victim, who deserves all-round condemnation in the eyes of the world community, and who needs all-round support. At the same time, the information support of a military conflict determines the mood and therefore effective support for one’s own army and population, in addition it pants into the heads of soldiers and the broad masses of the enemy country the idea that their actions are wrong, thus spreading depression and passivity among them. That is why the ideological basis of the information warfare today plays a key role in its preparation, conduct and consolidation of the results in the spiritual values of the society after it ends.
The system of spiritual and moral values as a national ideology and the basis of national humanitarian education and upbringing
Authors: Plyais Ya. A.
Published: February 2024

The special military operation in Ukraine, which began on February 24, 2022, made the subject of ideological education of Russian youth and the country’s population as a whole actual and inevitable. This event clearly showed that a large gap has appeared in the ideological education and patriotic upbringing of the Russian population. It is impossible to fill that gap without having the appropriate tools and mechanisms to influence the minds of people, especially young people. Decree of the President of Russia V. V. Putin No. 809 of November 9, 2022 “On approval of the fundamentals of State policy for the preservation and strengthening of traditional Russian spiritual and moral values” is destined to fill the ideological vacuum that had been formed immediately after the liberal democratic revolution in Russia, which took place in the early 90s of the last century. The ideological university course “Bases of Russian Nation-building” should play a special role in solving the problem of the ideological patriotic education of Russian youth. Such basic factors as the global mission of Russia, the historical experience of the nation, the level of development of society and the state, relations with the outside world should be the main ones during developing the ideological course.

Educational and Patriotic Component of the National Interests of the State
Authors: Kulakova N. N.
Published: February 2024

The all time moral value measurement of the national security of the state is the mobilization spirit of the people, the willingness to live and act for the benefit of their native country. This can be achieved through effective patriotic education of young people. In scientific and methodological sources, the process of understanding the concept and phenomenon of “patriotism” almost never ends. The ideas and conclusions of researchers from different historical periods and scientific areas are extremely different, as well as the assessment of the practical significance of patriotism for the functioning of the political system. The conduct of the Special Military Operation in Ukraine and other current political events have spured Russians’ interest in patriotic discourse. One can keep complaining about the lack of terminological unity or the lack of modern empirical studies of patriotism, advocate for funding public organizations that promote patriotic ideas in society, but, from the author’s point of view, without real, legally fixed social guarantees for people who have given themselves to the service of the Motherland, all the beautiful-hearted panegyrics will remain nothing more than good wishes and an abstract thought. Patriotic actions, lessons of courage, poems and songs dedicated to the Motherland and its defenders will have an educational effect when people who have dedicated themselves to serving the Motherland, regardless of the current political situation and ideological framework, will remain a significant and respected part of society.
Pro-Fascist Hesitations of Western “Democracies” in the Interwar Period and on the Eve of the Second World War: Revisiting the Need to Analyze the Essence of Ideologies in the Specific Context of Historical Socio-Political and Diplomatic Circumstances
Authors: Surguladze V. Sh.
Published: February 2024

The article provides examples of anti-sovietism motivated sympathies of Western political circles for fascist-type regimes in the interwar period. It is concluded that in order to combat the falsification of history and the distortion of information through the memory and identity politics implemented by a number of states, it is necessary to study and widely publicize the historical, socio-political and diplomatic circumstances of the policy of Western countries on the eve of the Second World War. An important condition for the fight against falsification of history and tendentious coverage of historical facts is to identify the real essence and conditions for the emergence of political regimes of the fascist type in a specific historical context, as well as to counteract attempts of modern interpretations of the essence of fascism, taken out of context and dictated by the tasks of the current political situation, propaganda and information warfare aimed at distorting the historical role of the Soviet Union and undermining the “soft” power and value sovereignty of the Russian Federation as a successor state.
On the Implementation of the Language Policy of the Russian Federation
Authors: Kablukov V. V. , Kositsyna E. F. , Mamaeva Yu. A.
Published: February 2024

The present article is devoted to important questions of implementation of the language policy of the Russian Federation both inside and outside of Russia, particularly in the post-soviet countries. The relevance of the study is due to the Federal Law “On Amendments to the Federal Law “On the State Language of the Russian Federation” that came into force on February 28, 2023 The work formulates the problems of implementing the state language policy in a number of Moscow universities and discusses ways to solve them. As a result of summarizing empirical experience the article makes the conclusion that at present the Russian language in its state capacity can be taught to the citizens of the Russian Federation in the “Stylistics” block of the “Russian Language and Culture of Speech” course. In turn, the tasks now facing teachers go beyond teaching students to read documents; the discipline is evolving towards national selfidentification by native speakers. Also the authors raise again the issue that the linguistic definition of “state language” is underdeveloped. The work summarizes the experience of a number of Moscow universities in developing the export of education abroad.
Humanism Through History
Authors: Koren V. L.
Published: February 2024

The article is devoted to the study of the evolution of the term «humanism». It is noted that humanism is a rather ambiguous term and domestic scientific thought treats it ambiguously. It is emphasized that humanism, as a cultural and historical phenomenon, has undergone a complex path of evolutionary development, taking various forms and shades. Each historical era brought its own, time-appropriate content to this concept. The author points to the fact that humanism as ideological movement is born in ancient times, but the term itself began to be used in the philosophical lexicon only in the nineteenth century and represented a peculiar type of mindset, a unique moral principle that began to dominate the spiritual sphere, whereas in the twentieth century it encompassed all spheres of society. It is concluded that at the present stage of civil development, where man has become a prisoner of the global socio-anthropological crisis, humanism should be turned into an ideology on a planetary scale.

Active methodologies and digital technologies during remote teaching: conceptions of public school chemistry teachers in the interior of the state of São Paulo
Authors: Silva Leonardo Augusto da , Gibin Gustavo Bizarria
Published: February 2024

During remote teaching, teachers were challenged to use methodologies and technologies that provide active and effective learning for students. This challenge results from the lack of experience and training of teachers on these subjects. This study aimed to understand the conceptions of a group of chemistry teachers from the public school system in the interior of São Paulo, regarding the use of active methodologies supported by digital technologies during the pandemic. Moran and Valente's ideas were adopted as a theoretical framework and the approach used was qualitative. Semi-structured interviews were used in data collection and for data analysis, lexical analysis was used with the Iramuteq software. It was noted that the professors did not use active methodologies and as a technological resource they mainly used simulators. The lack of structure and guidelines were some of the challenges found, which implies the need for investments in technologies and offers of teacher training on these topics.

This study analyzes the problem of higher professional education for people with disabilities in multinational megacities from different countries. The aim of this paper is to investigate the emerging changes and perspectives of educational inclusion in the universities of Moscow, Jakarta, Barcelona, and Cairo and to develop a new model of inclusive educational practice for universities based on an inclusive ideology of understanding the position of people with disabilities in the education system and society overall. To perform this study and verify the new model proposed by the authors, participants were selected from ten universities that indicated parameters such as accessibility, participation, quality, students’ education results, and government funding. The survey aimed to collect participants’ perspectives and experiences from diverse elements of the higher education community in the aforementioned locations. 751 participants were selected for the survey with a balanced gender distribution: 48.6% men and 51.4% women. Age distribution was rather diverse: the age group of 18–24 years was 25,7%, the age group of 25–34 years was 27,3%, the age group of 35–44 years was 25,6%, and the age group of 45 years 21,4%. Another distribution was people without disabilities (N=250) and with disabilities (N=551). The reliability of the research was achieved using several methods, including ANOVA. The results of this research show similarities and differences in implementing inclusive education practices across selected locations, providing a detailed picture of the current state and future perspectives of higher inclusive education. The scientific novelty of this research lies in the theoretical-methodological rationale of the new model of inclusive higher education practices in universities of major megacities and in forming the propositions on this model’s implementation in higher education institutions. Doi: 10.28991/ESJ-2024-SIED1-03 Full Text: PDF

Authors: Tuan Tran Anh , Trang Le Thanh Thao , An Tran Dai , Nghia Nguyen Huu , Loan Dao Thi Thanh
Published: February 2024

Objectives: This study explores different machine learning models (KNN: k-nearest neighbor, MLP: Multilayer Perceptron, SVM: Support Vector Machine) to identify the optimal model for accurate and rapid mental health detection among the recovered COVID-19 patients. Other techniques are also investigated, such as feature selection (Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE) and Extra Trees (ET) methods) and hyper-parameter tuning, to achieve a system that could effectively and quickly indicate mental health. Method/Analysis: To achieve the objectives, the study employs a dataset collected from recovered COVID-19 patients, encompassing information related to depression, anxiety, and stress. Machine learning models are utilized in the analysis. Additionally, feature selection methods and hyper-parameter tuning techniques are explored to enhance the model’s predictive capabilities. The performance of each model is assessed based on accuracy metrics. Findings: The experimental results show that SVM is the most suitable model for accurately predicting an individual’s mental health among recovered COVID-19 patients (accuracy ≥ 0.984). Furthermore, the ET method is more effective than the RFE method for feature selection in the anxiety and stress datasets. Novelty/Improvement:The study lies in the understanding of predictive modeling for mental health and provides insights into the choice of models and techniques for accurate and early detection. Doi: 10.28991/HEF-2024-05-01-01 Full Text: PDF
Investigating Statistical Features of the FX Bid Ask Series in a Small Economy with a Sizeable Informal Economy
Authors: Kushta Elmira , Vuka Erarda , Prenga Dode , Dika Ines
Published: February 2024

The assessment of the effect of the informal use of a foreign currency on the corresponding FX rates toward the national currency is a very difficult task, requiring direct calculation and modeling. It comes mostly because of the unknown quantity of foreign money used in the informal sector, but also because of the lack of quantitative calculation models. To overcome this gap and to realize a qualitative description of this effect in a concrete economic environment, we propose herein a comparative analysis between the behavior of two typical FX rate series recorded in the Albanian currency market, the Euro-ALL and USD-ALL, providing that the Euro is used commonly as a national currency substitute in the informal economy and the USD is not. So, we have evidenced that the un-stationarity degree of the Bid and Ask spread distribution for the Euro-ALL FX series is higher than for the corresponding USD-ALL case, but with a lower variance. Those features occurring simultaneously can be explained by assuming that informal use of the Euro acts as an additional perturbation on the FX system, imposing high nonstationary, but at the same time it provides reservoir or source features for the money disbalances, reducing the average fluctuations. Next, the depth of the market measured by the average Bid-Ask Spread has resulted in a smaller price for the Euro currency, indicating a lower cost of the transactions and reinforcing the assumption regarding the distribution’s in-stationarity features. Based on those indicatory findings, we propose to realize indirect evidence for our assumptions by comparing the reproduction of the corresponding distribution using autoregressive models. In this case, we have evidenced that the distribution of the FX Euro-ALL spread can be reproduced better if we include in standard ARCHX (m, n, p) models a term that mimics the informality measure. When applying the same procedure for the USD-ALL spread, the resulting distribution has not matched equally well with the original ones. Those findings have been discussed in the framework of an alternative description of the effect of the informal use of foreign currency in a small economy with a sizeable informal sector, which convene our current system under analysis, but we believe that they can be applicable for similar economic environments. Doi: 10.28991/HEF-2024-05-01-02 Full Text: PDF
Environmental and Demographic Effects on Vector Borne Disease Incidence: Welfare Role on DHF Reduction
Authors: Bakri Samsul , Apriliani Adella Putri , Kurniawaty Evi , Mayaquezz Henky
Published: February 2024

Many regions in developing countries are transitioning to an industrial economic model, accompanied by rapid population growth, which from one side is a welfare driver (WLF) and on the other side is a demographic pressure, especially a health problem such as vector-borne disease. The problem climaxes when this transition is always accompanied by environmental degradation (ENV), which begins with deforestation. Objective: [1] Determine the direct influence of: [1a] Demographic on DHF incidence, [1b] Demographic on Welfare improvement, [1c] Welfare on DHF incidence, [1d] Environment improvement on DHF incidence, [1e] Environment improvement on performance Welfare; and [2] The indirect influence of Welfare in mediating [2a] Demographic pressure and [2b] Environment improvement on DHF incidence. Research Method: Lampung Province was used as the research locus. Forest Resources Inventory Laboratory of Lampung University as a place for analysis. Postulate SEM (Structural Equation Model) was employed at a 95% confidence level. The endogenous variable was vector-borne disease (reflected by DHF incidence). The two exogenous variables were DMG (reflected by population density and the proportion of age of productive, industrial, and service workers) and ENV (reflected by maximum & minimum air temperature, forested areas, and other land uses). The mediating variable is WLF (reflected by poverty and HDI). Findings: [1] Directly, with a significant effect: [1a] DMG pressure increases DHF (P=0.000) and [1.b] WLF (P=0.000); [1.c] Environment improvement increases welfare (P=0.000) while [1d] reduces DHF; and [1.e] WLF improvement can reduce DHF (P=0.010) and [2] The role of WLF improvement [2a] can significantly reduce the incidence of DHF due to demographic pressure (P=0.007) while also [2b] amplifying environmental improvement in reducing DHF significantly (P=0.023). Novelty:To reduce DHF incidence, Welfare improvement can reverse the negative effects of Demographic pressure as well as act as an amplifier for the role of environmental improvement. Doi: 10.28991/HEF-2024-05-01-03 Full Text: PDF

Published: February 2024

Businesses globally heavily invest in Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) implementation to meet high customer demands and maintain competitiveness. Despite significant investments, underutilization hampers reaping the system's full benefits, leading to stagnant or adverse performance. Hence, this study aims to uncover reasons for the lack of end-user adoption of ERP systems. It focuses on the correlation between performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, and organizational support in determining ERP system acceptance by end users. This study utilized a quantitative methodology. Data were collected from 392 respondents within a Malaysian shared service center. Multiple regression analysis was conducted employing the UTAUT model and perceived organizational support theory to evaluate and interpret the collected data. The study’s key findings include the significant positive association between performance expectancy and ERP system adoption, reinforcing the influence of effort expectancy on technology adoption. Despite its positive effects, social influence had little effect on end-user adoption. Additionally, it was observed that ERP system adoption was consistently facilitated by organizational support. This study confirms the essential factors that drive the adoption of ERP systems by end-users. It emphasizes the crucial role of leadership in prioritizing these elements for organizations to enhance user acceptance and ensure the successful implementation of ERP systems. Doi: 10.28991/HIJ-2023-04-04-013 Full Text: PDF

Authors: Abdul Razak Siti Fatimah , Fang Ku Yee , Kamis Noor Hisham , Muhammad Amin Anang Hudaya , Yogarayan Sumendra
Published: February 2024

Connected vehicles are more vulnerable to attacks than wired networks since they involve rapid mobility, continuous data flow across connected nodes, and dynamic network design in a distributed network environment. Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) is one of the most common and dangerous security attacks on connected vehicle networks. Attackers can remotely control malicious nodes that are programmed to attack other nodes known. The compromised nodes are known as botnets, which will constantly flood the target nodes with User Datagram Protocol (UDP) packets, disrupting the target nodes data flow and operation. Hence, the goal of this research is to create and simulate a vehicular bot-based Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) assault in connected vehicle networks. A simulation-based methodology is implemented to observe the impact of the number of bots, DDoS rate, and maximum bulk packet size on network performance. Using the NS-3 network simulator, 73 random mobile vehicle nodes with up to 100 vehicle bots were simulated, and the results are discussed. Regardless of the computational constraints, the findings from this study adds to understanding the risks and problems associated with data transmission by analyzing the impact of vehicular bot-based DDoS attacks on connected vehicle performance. Doi: 10.28991/HIJ-2023-04-04-014 Full Text: PDF
Impact of Climate Change on the Performance of Household-Scale Photovoltaic Systems
Authors: Bozsik Nándor , Szeberényi András , Bozsik Norbert
Published: February 2024

The objective of this article was to investigate the impacts of climate change on photovoltaic systems among renewable energies by the end of the 21st century. One hypothesis posited that due to decreased cloud cover as a result of changing climate, the geographical region under examination would receive more solar irradiation—usable by photovoltaic panels—which would in turn increase the annual electrical energy production of these systems. Another hypothesis suggested that the average temperature increase, associated with changing climate conditions, would detrimentally affect the efficiency of electricity production in photovoltaic systems. The study was based on the simulation of a household-scale photovoltaic model. This simulation calculated the system's performance on an hourly basis depending on inputs and summed these to produce an annual value. Input values were derived from climate scenario databases. These variables included global horizontal irradiance, direct horizontal irradiance, temperature, and wind speed. The output was the aforementioned quantity of annual electrical energy production. An analysis occurred between the annual average global horizontal irradiance and the annual average air temperature in relation to the quantities of annual electrical energy production. Pearson and partial correlation examinations among the variables demonstrated that unfavorable scenarios resulted in reduced efficiency of photovoltaic electrical energy production, primarily due to rising temperatures. Among other contributions, this article can support research into the active cooling of photovoltaic systems and the examination of their viability to mitigate efficiency losses caused by current and future temperature increases. Doi: 10.28991/HIJ-2024-05-01-01 Full Text: PDF

Günümüzde, çevresel sürdürülebilirlik ve teknolojideki ilerlemeler endüstrilerin ilgisini çevreye daha duyarlı ve yenilikçi malzemelere yönlendirmiştir. Odun-plastik kompozit (OPK) malzemeler, doğal kaynakların korunmasına ve çevre kirliliğinin azaltılmasına katkıda bulunurken aynı zamanda dayanıklı bir malzeme seçeneği sunmaktadır. Bu kompozit malzemelerin performansı içerdikleri malzemelerin kombinasyonları ile yakından ilişkilidir. En uygun malzeme kombinasyonunun belirlenmesi spesifik uygulama gereksinimlerini karşılayan ürünler geliştirmede üreticilere, tasarımcılara ve malzeme mühendislerine yardımcı olabilmektedir. Bu çalışma, mobilya üretimi için uygun malzeme kombinasyonlarını seçme sürecinde kullanılmak üzere bütünleşik bir BWM-WASPAS yaklaşımı sunmaktadır. Doğu kayını ve polikarbonat levhaların farklı kombinasyonları fiziksel ve mekanik özellikler göz önüne alınarak değerlendirilmektedir. BWM yöntemi karar kriterlerini önceliklendirirken, alternatiflerin öncelik sıralamasını belirlemek için WASPAS yöntemi kullanılmaktadır. Çalışmanın son aşamasında, sıralama sonuçlarını desteklemek için bir duyarlılık analizi gerçekleştirilmektedir. Bu çalışma, mobilya endüstrisinde malzeme katman organizasyonu değerlendirme problemini karmaşık bir çok kriterli karar verme problemi olarak formüle ederek ve malzeme kombinasyonu seçimi için BWM ve WASPAS yöntemlerini bütünleştirerek yeniliğini sunmaktadır.

Background: Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intrathoracic chemotherapy (HITHOC) is a procedure that includes surgical removal of all visible tumor implants and intrathoracic application of gradually heated cytostatic solution. Numerous changes in hemodynamic, respiratory, core body temperature and metabolic parameters are possible during this complex procedure. The aim of this retrospective study was to analyze pathophysiological changes which occur during CRS + HITHOC procedure, and to suggest efficient strategies for perioperative patient care that might reduce complication rate. Methods: The study included 7 patients who underwent CRS + HITHOC in our cancer center. Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) guideline for Thoracic Surgery was applied to all patients. Data on intraoperative hemodynamics (mean arterial pressure, stroke volume, heart rate, cardiac output) and temperature variations were collected from medical records and analyzed in three timelines: during the CRS phase, at the beginning, and the end of cytostatic perfusion. Occurrence of respiratory, renal, and cardiac complications was monitored. Results: All patients were respiratory stable during one-lung ventilation, with adequate gas exchange. Hemodynamic stability was compromised at the beginning of cytostatic perfusion, with significant decrease of mean arterial pressure and stroke volume. Two patients required vasopressor support. Average core body temperature was satisfactory in all patients. Coagulation disorders and acute renal failure were not recorded in postoperative period. One patient developed atrial fibrillation which was successfully pharmacologically restored. Conclusion: Our results indicate that goal directed fluid management following ERAS protocol, with maintaining hemodynamic stability and normothermia, could prevent perioperative complications during HITHOC procedure.

Sufism, a significant aspect of Muslim life, emphasizes spiritual development and the individual's connection with God. TGKH. Muhammad Zinuddin Abdul Madjid's book "Wasiat Renungan Masa" stands as a valuable legacy, guiding individuals in exploring life's meaning and religious teachings. Despite this, research on the actualization of Sufi values from the book in an educational context remains limited. This study analyzes how these values are realized in Madrasah Aliyah Mu'alimin NW Anjani. Employing a qualitative approach with a case study design, data is gathered through interviews, classroom observations, and document analysis. The study identifies and analyzes key themes related to Sufi values in "Wasiat Renungan Masa." Results show that the actualization involves Sufi-based education, providing spiritual enlightenment and character strengthening. Methods include indoctrination, reflection, application, education, and awareness. Factors influencing actualization include supportive infrastructure, teacher understanding, and curriculum integration. Leadership, parental involvement, and community participation reinforce Sufi teachings. Conversely, constraints include facility limitations, teacher understanding, curriculum depth, financial constraints, and low student participation.
