Authors: Stenlin Kenneth
Published: August 2022

In the most recent few years, the retail online store has emerged as the most prominent trend in the field of social services. People have a tendency to shop online at retail websites an increasing amount. This pattern is expected to continue to gain momentum as a direct result of the development of 3D virtual reality. As a result of this, the potential for the establishment of online retail outlets has garnered a lot of interest. This study investigates the effect that the proliferation of head-mounted displays (HMDs) has had on foot traffic in retail establishments and investigates how virtual reality (VR) could improve the overall shopping experience for customers at every stage of the journey. We used a qualitative research design, which included interactions with both industry specialists and average customers as part of our investigation. In addition, the purpose of this study is to create new ground by making an attempt to use the existing literature as a guide to assist in predicting future directions and trends for purchasing online.
Protecting Multinational Enterprise (MNE) Employees from a Consumer's Perspective: The Role of "Social" Reputation
Authors: Tese Zin Kulupin
Published: August 2022

Virtually instantaneous information dissemination has narrowed the once existing knowledge gap between multinational corporations and customers (i.e. Rana Plaza collapse, 2013). Consumers begin to play a significant role in the support of workers. Their increasing social consciousness has evident economic implications. MNEs have attempted to counteract the loss of social prestige by primarily establishing (and imposing on their suppliers) codes of conduct and ethics that stipulate a minimum level for decent work conditions. This article intends to assess, from many perspectives, the social reputation and social sustainability that have recently drawn the attention of stakeholders (MNEs, consumers, government and non-government organizations, unions). These "new" types of social initiatives (code of behaviour, social ranking, consumer campaigns, and boycotting) are informative and could aid in the dissemination of ILO labour standards. Clearly, they can only provide supplementary assistance to workers who are struggling in the traditional struggle between Work and Capital. The inclination to evaluate the social sensitivity of MNEs using a single criterion that applies to both "developing" and "developed" nations risks fostering a "race to the bottom" mentality.

Relationship between plasma osmolality and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction

Short title: Osmolality and inflammation in heart failure
Authors: BAYKIZ DERYA , Z AYDIN , R DEMET , ALPSOY SEREF
Published: August 2022

Aim: Heart failure (HF), a progressive disease, is accompanied by chronic inflammation and changes in osmolality. The neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) demonstrates a systemic inflammatory response in most diseases; however, the relationship between plasma osmolality and the systemic inflammatory response in HF patients is not yet clear. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the possible associations of NLR with plasma osmolality levels in patients with HF.
Materials and Methods: The present study included 189 consecutive patients with chronic HF with an ejection fraction (EF) of <40%. They were classified into four groups based on admission plasma osmolality quartiles: hypo-osmolar (first quartile), normo-hypo-osmolar (second quartile), normo-hyperosmolar (third quartile), and hyperosmolar (fourth quartile). We evaluated the relationship between NLR, plasma osmolality, type-B natriuretic peptide (BNP), and the New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class.
Results: The hyperosmolar group had an increased NLR (p = 0.007). The presence of NYHA class 3–4 functional capacity, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, and high osmolality were independent predictors of increased NLR. In correlation analysis, osmolality was significantly positively correlated with NLR (r = 0.201, p = 0.011).
Conclusion: Higher NLR values may be associated with increased plasma osmolality, which may indicate an increased inflammatory status in the HF phenomenon.

Published: August 2022

Objective: We aimed to investigate whether systemic immune-inflammation index, an easily available inflammatory and immune response marker, is associated with SYNTAX score (SS) in patients admitted with suspected CAD who underwent coronary angiography (CAG).
Materials and Methods: Evaluated retrospectively were 456 patients who CAG from the cardiology outpatient clinic between January 2020 and January 2022. The SII was calculated by the formula neutrophil × platelet / lymphocyte. SS scores were divided into 3 groups as <22 (lowest), 22-32 (intermediate), and ≥32 (highest). Those with an SS of 0 were taken as the control group.
Results: Median were higher in CAD group compared to control group SII (631.0 vs 381.5, p< 0.001), and a positive correlation was found between SS and SII (r= 0.578, p<0.001) levels. Median SII levels were found to be higher as SS severity increased (p< 0.05 for each SS group). The cut-off value of SII in predicting the presence of CAD was >594.2, with 56.7% sensitivity and 91.1% specificity (AUC ± SE = 0.807 ± 0.020, p < 0.001). In addition, it was found that SII predicted lowest SS group compared to the control group (OR = 1.06; p < 0.001), intermediate SS compared to lowest SS (OR = 1.03; p < 0.001), and highest SS compared to intermediate SS (OR = 1.04; p < 0.001).
Conclusion: SII has the potential to be a screening marker for presence and severity of CAD before CAG. This study demonstrates that SII is independently associated with coronary atherosclerosis burden.

Introduction:
In the recent years, cholelithiasis has become one of the major cause of increased abdominal morbidity and mortality through the world. The impaired metabolism of cholesterol, bilirubin and bile acids, leads to formation of gallstones in the hepatic bile duct, common bile duct, or gallbladder.
Objectives:
The study was conducted to analyze the clinical presentation, incidence and variations of presentation among the various age/sex groups and the various mode of management of Cholelithiasis.
Results:
The present study Included 65 patients with cholelithiasis, out of which 41 were females and 24 were males. The mean age group of patients was 45years and incidence rate was more common in female patients with mean age of 45.3years. It is also observed that mixed stones 36 (55%) were commonly seen compared to pigment stones 21(32%) and cholesterol stones08(12%). Significant association was seen with patients who are on mixed diet(N=39). Upper abdominal pain was the primary presentation seen in all patients, associated with dyspepsia, nausea, vomiting and fever in few patients. As laparoscopic cholecystectomy is considered as gold standard technique, 83% of patients underwent same surgery with minimal postoperative complications compared to open cholecystectomy.
Conclusion:
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy reduces the number of hospital days and was associated with lesser postoperative morbidity. Further studies are required in larger population to find out the prevalence rate as well as mode of management in patients with cholelithiasis.

Authors: Padhy Asutosh , Panda Jagnyaseni , Patra Srikanta , Acharya Sephali , Mishra Snigdha
Published: August 2022

Background: Smartphones, PC, tablets, and TV have become integral parts of our lives. The smartphone in particular is the lifeline of everyone, regardless of their age group. Overuse of smartphones is increasing, resulting in a great deal of physical and psychological effects. It is found to negatively impact health and increase the risk of stress, depression, and anxiety. In addition to this, sleep disorders, restlessness, and fatigue are also being reported which can lead to cognitive impairment. The reaction time (RT) is the interval between the application of a stimulus and the response. It is an indication of neural processing between a stimulus and the response which is expressed in milliseconds.

Aims and Objectives: The primary objective of this study was to estimate screen time, auditory and visual RTs, and the association between screen time and RT (visual reaction time [VRT] and auditory reaction time [ART]).

Materials and Methods: The present cross-sectional study was conducted on 232 1st year MBBS students in the age group of 18–23 years. Average screen time was noted from their respective gadgets. RT for the targeted stimulus, yellow light for the VRT and beep sound for the ART, was determined using the Biochart application system by Biostar Health care (Computer software) on the laptop. The task was to press the space bar as soon as the stimulus was presented. Average RT for both the stimuli (ART and VRT) were calculated using ten readings for each. Data obtained were analyzed.

Results: Our study shows that ART is faster than VRT for both males and females. Screen time with VRT has a moderate positive significant relationship (P < 0.001), while for the ART, it has a weak positive relation.

Conclusion: Based on our findings, it can be concluded that there is a positive correlation between screen time and RT. Screen time alone has a 21% effect on the RT as per our study. It also suggests that ART is faster than VRT. The females have a higher RT than the males in a similar age group.

Results: A total of 296 students were sent Google form-based questionnaire, out of which 278 responded with completely filled up questionnaire, giving a response rate of 94%. About 82% reported correctly that healthy normal human volunteers participate in phase 1 of CT. Majority of the students (95%) were aware what is informed consent. Only 98 (35%) students were aware that the request for authorization to conduct CT is given in form 44 as per drugs and cosmetics act. Around 43.16% responded correctly about the time period taken for completion of CT, majority of the students (90%) knew who is responsible for conduction of CT. One hundred and seventy (61.15%) reported correctly that adverse drug effects and new indication or use of the drug is studied in phase 4 and majority were aware that phase 4 is also known as post marketing surveillance. In the study, 204 (73.4%) students were aware that innovatory company of a new drug has to take approval from Institutional Review Board or Institutional Ethics Committee before phase 0 of clinical trial. Majority 240 (86.33%) of the students were aware what is pharmacovigilance. The last question in our study was to assess student’s interest in taking up clinical research in future, only 41% of students showed interest in choosing clinical research as a career option.

Conclusion: In the present study, undergraduate medical students’ knowledge regarding clinical trial was average and limited number of students expressed their interest in conduct of CT. A scientifically conducted research helps in evidence-based medicine, which, in turn, improves the patient care and promotes health. A great number of medical students may pursue research in future; hence, it is crucial for medical students to be knowledgeable about clinical research. Therefore, formal, educative, and regular training of medical students is required for choosing clinical research as a career option and conduct high-quality research.

FAKE NEWS DETECTION USING DEEP LEARNING
Authors: GOPIKA T.
Published: August 2022

Most of the smart phone users prefer to read the news via social media over internet. The news websites are publishing the news, providing the source of authentication. Human inefficiency to distinguish between true and false facts poses fake news as a threat to logical truth, which deteriorates democracy, journalism, and credibility in governmental institutions. In the wake of emerging technologies, there is dire need to develop methodologies, which can minimize the spread of fake messages or rumours that can harm society in any manner. Online clients are normally vulnerable and will, in general, perceive all that they run over Web- based networking media as reliable. Consequently, mechanizing counterfeit news recognition is elementary to keep up hearty online media and informal organization. . It is harmful for the society to believe on the rumours and pretend to be a news. The need of an hmy is to stop the rummys especially in the developing countries, and focus on the correct, authenticated news articles. And so, I propose a model for recognizing forged news, which is a computational stylistic analysis based on natural language processing, efficiently applying deep learning algorithms like ANN algorithm to detect fake news in texts extracted from social media.

The context of synergetics makes it possible for scientists of different specializations to interact fruitfully in the language of systematic understanding and search for new solutions. The presented work raises the question of how the theory of self-organization can help in the reformation of the higher education system, why this is relevant, and what can lead to the training of both teachers and students within the framework of an interdisciplinary approach. In the future, we will highlight the most important characteristics of complex systems and the simplest and at the same time conceptually simplest methods for analyzing complexity. As part of the complex systems modeling course, which will first be presented to students of physics and mathematics, and then, possibly, to students of other specialties, we present signals of seismic activity, gravitational waves and magnetic activity, and demonstrate how we can identify critical or crash phenomena in such systems. This kind of analysis can serve as a good basis for the formation of professional skills and universal competencies.

Published: August 2022

The rapid development of tools and technologies of the World Wide Web, the introduction of ICT in all spheres of society as a whole and each of its members in particular, has not bypassed the education system. Cloud computing technologies open up new prospects, including the system of higher teacher education. Cloud technologies imply the provision of any services via the Internet, when data processing is carried out using the power of a network of remote servers, and the user's computer runs only a "thin client". A network of interconnected remote servers is the basis of the cloud.

Published: August 2022

This paper is focused on considering agile methodology as an instrument to use in education quality assurance. We propose the Scrum method applicable for education quality assurance based on adapted Manifesto for Agile Education Quality Assurance and twelve principles behind it. The Scrum procedure is described and roles are distributed for two real-life cases of external and internal educational program quality evaluation. We illustrate that proposed Scrum procedure perfectly fits existing practices and can be used to enhance both external and internal quality assurance processes in higher education. We consider achievement of SDG 4 targets through proposed methodology as the necessary step to take in achieving SDGs 8 and 9. It is concluded that stakeholders feedback about their satisfaction by economic and innovative factors should be included in each sprint review procedure in proposed Scrum methodology. We discuss SDG 4 achieving within multilayered DIKW+DM hierarchy as a framework for education quality assurance that allow to join information processing, knowledge acquisition and corresponding decision-making algorithm.

Cloud technologies in the training of qualified workers
Authors: Matseiko O. V.
Published: August 2022

One of the strong reasons why foreign investors are reluctant to invest in Ukraine's economy is the low level of qualifications of our labor force. In addition, the state has no money to reform the system of vocational education and bring it in line with the requirements of modern production. Partially cope with this problem is possible through the active use of information and communication technologies in the vocational training of future skilled workers. The introduction of cloud computing into the teaching and production process gives a new impetus to the development of ICT environment in vocational schools and, consequently, to a qualitatively new level of training of specialists in different branches of the economy.

Cloud learning technologies in the system of information and communication technologies for educational purposes
Authors: Turavinina O. M.
Published: August 2022

Bykov understands information and communication technology as a computer-oriented component of pedagogical technology, reflecting some formalized model of a certain component of the content of training and methods of its presentation in the learning process, represented in this process by pedagogical software and involves the use of computers, computer-oriented learning tools and computer communication networks to solve didactic tasks or their fragments.The above interpretation requires some refinement since the list of ICT tools should be supplemented with cloud ICT tools, which are remote servers for storing and processing data of different types.
