Authors: Pexton Natalie , Bhatia Rajeev , Temkit Hamy , Sabati Arash
Published: September 2024

We investigated the association between cardiac factors, spirometry, and exercise testing in patients with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Clinical data from patients with TOF performing a cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) was collected retrospectively over a 10-year period. 122 patients with TOF were identified, 52 excluded for incomplete exercise, spirometry, or cardiac data for 70 total patients included in the study. There was a male predominance 39 (56%), a mean age of 25 ± 12 years, with 28 (40%) < 18 years of age. The mean number of cardiac surgeries was 2.1 ± 1.2. Most, 46 (69%) had moderate to severe pulmonary valve insufficiency (PI) and 34 (51%) had moderate to severe right ventricular (RV) dilation. Mean forced vital capacity (FVC) was low at 81.8% predicted, and 32 (46%) with low FVC (< 80% predicted). Overall peak VO2/kg was low with a mean of 58.2 ± 13.2 % predicted. Using multiple regression analysis, a higher number of cardiac surgeries was an independent predictor of lower FVC (p = 0.01). Lower FVC was itself an independent predictor of lower peak VO2/kg and O2 pulse (p < 0.05). Moderate or severe RV systolic dysfunction was an independent predictor of stroke volume response (p = 0.03). Higher body mass index (BMI) was an independent predictor of all exercise measures being worse (p < 0.05). Low FVC and reduced exercise capacity were common in our population of TOF patients. Low FVC was predictive of low exercise capacity while, of the cardiac measures only RV systolic dysfunction was significant and predictive of stroke volume response. Spirometry may be a valuable screening tool in evaluation of TOF patients.
Good Governance Principles in Waste Management in the Greater Bandung Region, West Java Province, Indonesia
Authors: Rochmansjah Heru
Published: September 2024

The waste problem is a public issue because it concerns the interests of the wider community, so it requires optimal management and compliance with the principles of good governance. This study examines the problem of implementing good governance principles in waste management in Greater Bandung area which includes Bandung City, Bandung Regency, West Bandung Regency and Cimahi City. It is known that these four regions jointly use Sarimukti TPA as an integrated waste processing site. The results of the study show that the principles of good governance have not been fully implemented in Greater Bandung waste management. At least four of the nine good governance principles have not been fulfilled, namely participation, rule of law, transparency and consensus orientation. Because it concerns public needs, waste management in Greater Bandung must also involve non-government parties so that cooperation takes place on the three pillars of good governance, namely government-private-community. This collaboration can be carried out through a collaborative governance model which ensures that stakeholders from outside the government are directly involved, both in the preparation and determination, also the implementation process of waste management policies.

Vocational education and training have been widely found to be related to economic development. In China, a country with a collectivist ideology, this relationship is especially significant and is reflected in many vocational education policies. This study analyzed the relationship between national development and Chinese technical and vocational education and training (TVET) in a systematic review. The study screened 33 vocational education policies that depicted the government's expectation of promoting economic development. These policies were screened, coded, categorized, and connected based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis standards. Qualitative methods and the theoretical framework of Ashton and Green were used to analyze the policies. Six themes were generated to detail the Chinese TVET development form and its attempts to promote national development: the modern TVET system, school-based vocational education, the competency-oriented curriculum system, student incentives, employer incentives, and workplace-based skills training.

While academic success is undoubtedly the most important criterion for evaluating an educational structure, consideration should also be given to those aspects that can contribute to the structure's objectives. As a result, the emphasis should be on understanding the foundations upon which the best academic success can be attained. This means that factors that promote students' mental and emotional well-being are crucial to their academic success. Hence, the main objective of this study was to investigate the effect of happiness on the academic performance of international students in South Korea. Three happiness variables were retained: social relationships, educational environments, and financial support. A descriptive survey research design was adopted as the research design. The data used was collected through questionnaires from 281 international students in South Korea using a purposive sampling technique. Data was analyzed using Pearson Product Moment Correlation analysis, and Multiple Linear regression analysis was done with the help of coefficients, R2, adjusted R2, and P-values as validation techniques in SPSS. The findings conclude that social relationships and educational environments significantly affect academic performance, while financial support is insignificant. The study therefore recommended that the school administration focus more on enhancing social relationships and creating safe and welcoming environments for all, since they were found to positively influence the performance of foreign students.

Two Adaptive Sliding Mode Control Algorithms for Vehicle Stability Enhancement
Authors: Le Anh-Tuan
Published: September 2024

This paper discusses two adaptive sliding mode control (ASMC) algorithms for enhancing vehicle stability through direct yaw moment control (DYC). DYC is based on a logic process derived from the understeering and oversteering behavior of a cornering vehicle. Furthermore, to achieve DYC in a four-wheeled passenger vehicle, the reference yaw moment computed by the proposed algorihms is converted into a braking pressure that is to be applied to the four wheels. The objective is to minimize the yaw rate error and constrain the sideslip angle to an acceptable range. According to Lyapunov theory, complete stability analysis guarantees the closed-loop stability and robustness of a control system. Simulation results were used to compare the two ASMC algorithms, and both algorithms showed high performance even under critical operating conditions.

SPECIFICITY OF CHILDREN'S SOCIALIZATION IN COMPLETE AND PARENT FAMILIES
Authors: Blikhar Mariia , Subashkevych Iryna
Published: September 2024

The article describes the specifics of the socialization process of children in complete and incomplete families. The research is based on the use of various methods: parental surveys and psychological tests. The main goal was to determine the level of anxiety in children and their individual characteristics influencing the socialization process.The study showed that children from incomplete families are characterized by a higher level of anxiety than children from complete families. During the study of personality traits of children according to R. Kettell's questionnaire, it was found that most children living in incomplete families and for various reasons raised by one parent show significant differences in some traits and behaviour, which may result from the fact that they have an incomplete picture of the family environment, unlike children from complete families. Such traits as emotional stability, normative behaviour and self-control are not characteristic of this category of children.The projective technique "My Family" made it possible to assess the specifics of relations between children and members of complete and incomplete families. Analysis of the research results showed that children with behavioural disorders more often appear in the drawings of children who have experienced a divorce of their parents than children in harmonious interpersonal interaction with their parents. The questionnaire "Analysis of family relations" (Eidemiller, Yustyckis) allowed to diagnose dysfunctions in the system of mutual influence of family members on each other and to detect errors in the parenting style chosen by the parents. Analysis of the answers of complete and incomplete families surveyed using this method and their comparison with the description of parenting styles allows to state that in incomplete families the features of excessively dominant care, excessive protection and excessive indulgence, emotional alienation prevail. Parents who raise their children separately or alone most often choose an "indulgent" parenting style.
Examining Role of 1-Year Online College Can Improve Access to Higher Learning
Authors:   Hoffman Estates High School  1100 W. Higgins Rd, Hoffman Estates, IL 60169, Pak Zoey
Published: September 2024

Purpose: This study aims to address the diminishing access to top universities by investigating and proposing alternative solutions to allow for additional deserving students admittance into highly selective universities. Results: Admittance to top universities have been steadily declining over the past 20 years, which has only been exasperated recently due to the global pandemic. As college admission committees continue to modify their assessment criterions, this has caused some consternation among high schoolers who feel their chances of getting admitted to various schools fluctuate with every news release. Through literature review and analysis, this study examines the benefits and challenges of utilizing a 1-year online offering to help bolster admission rates. From research evidence, the benefits of a 1-year online structure are reduced cost to the student, enhanced networking, and study abroad opportunities while the benefit to the universities are increased inflow of tuition dollars and greater alumni base for potential future donation support. However, online learning presents numerous challenges, such as isolation and decreased motivation. This study addresses these issues by proposing schools pool their additional capital to fund offsite communal shared spaces for the very purpose of enabling face to face socialization and learning. Conclusion: The results conclude that setting up an online learning environment for 1-year (this study used sophomore year as an example) will allow additional students to be admitted. Students can still gain social connections while realizing significant financial savings off their college bill. Universities will generate incremental revenue which, in part, can fund initiatives such as scholarships, on-campus facilities, and shared offsite classroom spaces for remote students.

Published: September 2024

The primary objective of this study was to examine Pakistan's child welfare policies and programs in light of the United Nations' goals for 2030. The study aims to examine Pakistan's performance in child-related SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) and to compare it to its neighbors, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and India. As a 'Quant-Qual Cross-sectional Study,' the researchers reviewed a number of secondary data sources available through their websites. Along with these many sources of quantitative data, the researchers also obtained qualitative information (e.g., child policies, programs, legislation, plans of action, etc.). It was a halfway evaluation, named the "Midpoint Agenda," of what is to be achieved by 2030. The Midpoint Agenda was analyzed in May 2024, nearly halfway through the UN goals set in 2015. The analysis of data leads us to the conclusion that child welfare in Pakistan remains at a residual level after 77 years.

The study was designed to assess the status of food intake and the gender inequalities regarding food consumption among rural women in the Okara district, Punjab, Pakistan. This cross-sectional study used a sequential explanatory research design (Quantitative, Qualitative). The sample for this study was 390 respondents, and a multistage sampling technique was used to collect data from the respondents. The data was collected through a household survey using a well-structured questionnaire for quantitative data and in-depth interviews conducted for qualitative data. The findings revealed that more or less 43% of respondents agreed that males dominate in the families receiving a larger and better share of food, whereas females do not get an equal share in food. Moreover, 56% of respondents said that sons were preferred over daughters for food consumption. About 62.2% said that, in their opinion, young females face health issues due to poor quality of food consumption. This study concluded that gender inequalities and household income are significant factors that affect the food consumption of rural women. There is a dire need to initiate an awareness campaign among rural households regarding nutritious food intake and to reduce gender-based inequalities.

This study considers probable changes in the characteristics of the temperature regime in the Amu Darya River basin by the middle of the 21st century. The assessment of changes is based on the results of multi-model ensembles of coupled global climate models participating in the sixth stage of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 6 (CMIP6) under two combined scenarios of the global socio-economic development pathway and representative concentration pathways (SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5). The results indicate that the warming trend is expected to continue in all seasons of the year in the basin. By the middle of the century, probable changes in seasonal temperatures throughout the territory fit into the following range: 1.8-3.6 °C for winter; 1.8-3.1 °C for spring; 2.2-3.4 °C for summer; and 2.1-3.4 °C for autumn temperatures. Average annual temperatures may increase by 2.1-3.2 °C. An increase in the absolute maximum and minimum daily air temperatures, an increase in the frequency of extremely high air temperatures (above 35 and 40 ºС) and a decrease in the frequency of days with temperatures below 0 ºС are expected. The spatial distribution of changes in the characteristics of the temperature regime across the basin is given, which demonstrates similar patterns for two scenarios with stronger changes in accordance with the SSP5‑8.5 scenario.

Published: September 2024

Utilizando datos de la Encuesta Ecuatoriana de Innovación y empleando un modelo logístico ordinal generalizado, se analiza la relación entre las capacidades tecnológicas de las empresas y el tipo de actividades de innovación que realizan con socios externos. Los resultados indican que la cooperación en todos los tipos de actividades de innovación está asociada a mayores capacidades tecnológicas, con la excepción de la cooperación en formación, que no explica las diferencias en capacidades tecnológicas. La cooperación en I+D, ingeniería y diseño, y asistencia técnica reduce la probabilidad de ser una empresa con bajas capacidades tecnológicas, mientras que la cooperación en información y pruebas de producto no lo hace. Por último, la cooperación en todas las actividades de innovación, excepto la formación, reduce la probabilidad de ser una empresa con competencias tecnológicas.

La investigación se centra en la economía circular como una estrategia para reducir la dependencia de recursos no renovables. El objetivo principal es analizar cómo este modelo puede contribuir a la sostenibilidad global y reducir el uso de estos recursos, mediante una revisión bibliográfica de estudios recientes. La metodología empleada es cualitativa, con un enfoque en la revisión sistemática de fuentes académicas y reportes técnicos publicados en los últimos diez años. Los resultados destacan que la economía circular fomenta la reutilización de materiales y la reducción de desechos, lo que disminuye la demanda de recursos vírgenes y los costos asociados. Además, se observan beneficios económicos como la creación de nuevas oportunidades de negocio y la mejora de la competitividad industrial, aunque se identifican obstáculos importantes como la falta de infraestructura adecuada y las barreras regulatorias. En la discusión, se analiza cómo la economía circular puede ser un catalizador de crecimiento sostenible, pero su adopción enfrenta retos estructurales y culturales. Finalmente, se concluye que la economía circular tiene un gran potencial transformador, pero requiere un mayor apoyo regulatorio y concienciación para su implementación efectiva.
