Modern approaches to assessing the impact on the economy and society: trends and problems
Authors: Musina L. A. , Kvasha T. K.
Published: January 2025

Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) are powerful drivers of economic diversification and growth, value creation and sustainable development. As geopolitical challenges and crises of the 21st Century intensify, the relevance of methods, criteria and indicators for assessing the STI policies effectiveness is increasing. Based on the results of the analysis of approaches to assessing the STI impact on the economy and society, a conclusion was drawn about the trend of their development from the econometric method and the system of quantitative indicators towards the synthesis of quantitative and qualitative analysis, the combination of patent and bibliometric analyses with thematic studies (case studies) and surveys.
A comprehensive assessment of societal impacts includes a wide range of outcomes: social, cultural, environmental benefits, human health. These are covered by the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). An important prerequisite for the effectiveness of research and innovation (R&I) policy is the transition to standards for assessing the effectiveness of programs and projects accepted in world practice: input resources (input); direct measurable results (outputs), medium-term results (outcomes), impact on the economy and society (impact), efficiency and effectiveness.
The article analyzes the systems for assessing the R&I impact on the economy and society adopted in Australia and the European Union. Common to these countries is a combination of an institutional approach to finance and monitor the implementation of priority development goals through R&I projects, and a comprehensive approach to assessing the direct and indirect economic impact of R&I, supplemented by a qualitative assessing the social and environmental consequences of projects through the analysis of scientific publications and thematic reports of project implementers. An assessing the results of financing projects and programs is carried out according to the defined standards, templates and sets of indicators. The general trend is to complement the main focus on economic value with an emphasis on social needs and sustainability. However, approaches to qualitative, evidence-based assessment of the STI impacts need to be further developed, using the opportunities of digitalizing the information flows about the results and impacts of implemented projects and programs.

Published: January 2025

This study explores applying the Living Qur'an approach in Islamic education to develop critical thinking skills and a reflective and relevant understanding of Islamic teachings in students' lives. This study uses the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) method to collect evidence of applying the Living Qur'an in Islamic education. Relevant literature was selected from the Garuda, Google Scholar, and Scopus databases. Articles that met the inclusion criteria were evaluated and analysed based on the themes of experiential learning and improving critical thinking skills. The findings were analysed to understand the impact of the Living Qur'an in developing Islamic learning. The results of the study show that the Living Qur'an approach bridges the gap between the text of the Qur'an and students' social lives, making it more relevant and applicable. This approach integrates Islamic teachings with social, cultural, and gender contexts, such as in the division of inheritance in South Kalimantan and Mandar culture. The Living Qur'an encourages critical and reflective thinking, inviting students to apply Islamic teachings daily. The innovation of digital interpretation allows learning to be more interactive and to the needs of the times. In addition, the Living Qur'an plays a role in shaping social ethics, improving the quality of community life, and strengthening students' character through applicable religious education. Implementing the Living Qur'an in Islamic Religious Education learning includes contextual, value-based, interactive, collaborative, and project-based approaches. Methods such as Discovery Learning, discussion, and Problem Based Learning are used to apply the values of the Qur'an. The limitations of this study lie in the focus on limited literature and the SLR methodology that does not include direct empirical data from students. Further research is recommended to involve field studies to test the practical application of the Living Qur'an in a broader educational context, including its influence on student learning outcomes.

Published: January 2025

The water level data is closely related to the water discharge data in the Pesongoran Kuripan channel in West Nusa Tenggara Province. Daily data is needed by farmers to maintain the quantity of water and the quality of agricultural products. Altitude data is taken daily by irrigation workers, but the data is often available in an incomplete state. This paper aims to correct incomplete data on water level data in irrigation canals using the Cubic Spline Interpolation algorithm. This is due to the nature of the data that depends on the climate (seasonal). Therefore, Cubic Spline can be a solution to incomplete data. The first step, create a set of coordinate points from the primary data.The second step is to create a tridiagonal matrix consisting of a lower triangle matrix, a diagonal matrix and an upper diagonal matrix. The third step is the constant search using Gauss-Jordan elimination. The effectiveness of the Cubic Spline method can be seen from the error of the comparison between the set of coordinate points and the coordinate points of the interpolated results. The smaller the error, the more appropriate the expected result . The results of the study prove the effectiveness of Cubic Spline in missing data.

Authors: Zurita-Méndez Nancy Nelly , Carbajal Georgina , Espinosa Medina Marco Antonio
Published: January 2025

Existen grupos de contaminantes orgánicos “emergentes” (COEs) hídricos caracterizados por una alta persistencia, baja degradación en el ambiente y con grandes efectos adversos a la salud y al medio ambiente, entre ellos se encuentran detergentes, hormonas, pesticidas, productos de cuidado personal, drogas ilícitas y fármacos. Su identificación y tratamiento presenta un interés creciente ya que se ha encontrado su presencia en las aguas residuales post­tratadas, en ríos, mares y en aguas subterráneas y hasta en el agua potable. Estos contaminantes no se eliminan en las plantas de tratamiento de agua residuales (PTAR) convencionales por lo que es imperativo desarrollar tratamientos eficientes que permitan su remoción del medio acuático y contribuir a la solución de esta problemática medioambiental. Esta preocupación ha hecho que se volteen a ver a las estructuras de redes metal-orgánicas (MOF por sus siglas en inglés: Metal-Organic Frameworks) las cuales son materiales que presentan características atractivas para la remoción de COEs por su alta capacidad de adsorción, porosidad y área superficial, por lo que su investigación se ha ampliado como adsorbentes selectivos que incluyen la eliminación de tintes, agroquímicos, productos farmacéuticos entre otros.

Complicaciones extrapulmonares asociadas al consumo de cigarro electrónico
Authors: Añez Valbuena Tomás Alfredo , Santoyo Orozco Jose Gustavo
Published: January 2025

El uso de cigarrillos electrónicos ha tenido un crecimiento significativo en la última década, siendo promovidos como una alternativa más segura al cigarrillo convencional. No obstante, recientes investigaciones han logrado demostrar el daño que pueden llegar a causar, tanto en el sistema respiratorio, como en el vascular y el óseo. Entre estos efectos, se encontró mayor dilatación de los vasos sanguíneos de los consumidores, con una menor recuperación del flujo de la sangre, mayor riesgo de hipertensión y otras afecciones de la sangre, lo cual se traduce en mayor riesgo de enfermedades cardiovasculares. En cuanto al sistema óseo, se han encontrado retrasos en el cierre de las fracturas en pacientes pediátricos, además de haber encontrado que tanto la nicotina, como los componentes en el líquido de los cigarros electrónicos, disminuyen la cantidad de células óseas sanas y contribuyen a la desmineralización del hueso. En la última década se logró demostrar que el consmuno de cigarro electrónico lleva a otros tipos de daños a la salud, además de los ya mencionados, como por ejemplo inmunosupresión a largo plazo, mayor riesgo de infecciones respiratorias, aumento el riesgo de cánceres pulmonares, entre otros más.

Authors: Oshima Takayoshi , Oshima Yuichi
Published: January 2025

We investigated non-plasma HCl-gas etching properties on (011) β-Ga2O3, which is an attracting surface orientation allowing pit-free homoepitaxy. The etching occurred selectively in window regions of a patterned SiO2 mask, and resulting side-etched structures were dependent on the in-plane directions of the window edges. Particularly, the side etching markedly reduced when the windows aligned with the [01

1

¯

] direction due to the formation of (100)-faceted sidewalls. Although the (100) sidewalls were slightly tilted from the surface normal by 6.5°, their surfaces were flat and free of plasma damage. Therefore, the crystallographic etching could be a promising microfabrication process on (011) β-Ga2O3.

Published: January 2025

We present our results of a radio frequency (RF) imaging method in which microwave pulse errors in the field of view do not directly result in a deterioration of quantitative accuracy of the amplitude of the detected RF field by utilizing the multifrequency resonance. The amplitude of the RF field is transferred to the diamond nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center electron spin states, which are read out as light emission from the NV centers using a wide-field microscope at high throughput as an image with a pixel size of (1.65 μm)2. Importantly, our method simplifies the setup required for RF imaging, eliminating the need for high-power microwave pulses and offering a wide dynamic range for the detected RF field.

Published: January 2025

We report on the preparation of vanadium dioxide (VO2) ultrathin films on hexagonal boron nitride (hBN), which is a typical two-dimensional material, to show clear metal–insulator transition owing to weak van der Waals interaction at their surface. It is confirmed that VO2 films on hBN with thicknesses ranging from 10 to 40 nm exhibit bulk like metal–insulator transition without degradation using Raman scattering spectroscopy and electric transport measurements. These results demonstrate the importance of the 2D material nature of hBN for producing strain-free oxide thin films.

Authors: - Ma’munuddin , Mulyati Sri
Published: January 2025

In terms of data management administration, recording land ownership documents such as Letter C is one of the areas that uses information systems in the village in its implementation, but many villages still rely on manual recording methods, causing operational inefficiencies and minimizing the risk of data loss. With the need for a less complicated process, the purpose of this study is to create and develop a web-based Letter C information system application using Google Apps Script that is digital and integrated to simplify land ownership management and data. One of the development-oriented approaches used is Prototyping. Able to create a working model of the system in its most primitive form and to get initial feedback from users. This allows the system to develop iteratively driven by user needs and preferences. This leads to a system that can record, search, and update land ownership data dynamically. The results of the study show that the proposed Letter C data management system greatly improves the efficiency of Letter C data management while reducing the risk of data loss or making errors. The implication of implementing this system is the increased ability of the village government to provide structured, transparent, and accountable land ownership administration services. This in turn can enable a more accurate and data-based decision-making process in the management of village land assets. Thus, this research can be part of the efforts to digitize the village governance system in the early period, especially in land data management
Assessment of Different Methods for Determinng Bearıng Capacıty for Shallow Foundatıon on Hill Slope
Authors:   Research Scholar, Department of Civil Engineering, Mizoram University, Aizawl (Mizoram), India., K. Zirsangzeli
Published: January 2025

The bearing capacity of soil is a crucial factor in foundation design, and it can be determined using various methods such as IS 6403:1981, Meyerhof (1957), Hansen (1970), and Terzaghi (1943), among others. This paper aims to study the most suitable method for assessing the bearing capacity of soil in hilly regions like Aizawl, Mizoram. In this regard, the Durtlang locality which is the most developing area under the Aizawl Municipal Corporation (AMC) has been selected for the study area. The study involved collecting undisturbed soil samples from ten different locations of the study area which were then tested in the laboratory to determine their engineering properties. Based on the obtained soil properties, the safe bearing capacity (SBC) was calculated using different methods, including IS 6403:1981, Meyerhof (1957), Hansen (1970), and Terzaghi (1943). A comparative analysis was conducted to evaluate the SBC values derived from these methods. Moreover, a parametric analysis was also conducted to study the impact of cohesion 'c' and the angle of internal friction 'Φ’ of soil on the bearing capacity of soil. The study concluded that as the cohesion of the soil increased, the angle of internal friction tended to decrease. On the other hand, the safe bearing capacity (SBC) was found to increase with a higher angle of internal friction. The results of the comparative analysis revealed that, for the selected soil samples, the bearing capacities calculated using IS 6403:1981, Meyerhof (1957), and Terzaghi (1943) were higher than those derived from Hansen's (1970) equation. Notably, both Meyerhof (1957) and Hansen (1970) incorporate the slope angle in their bearing capacity calculations, whereas IS 6403:1981 and Terzaghi (1943) provide general formulas that do not account for slope effects. These findings highlight that the method chosen for calculating bearing capacity has a significant impact on the results.

The optimization of electromechanical systems, such as those involving induction motors and gearboxes, is crucial for improving energy efficiency, system performance, and reliability in industrial applications. This paper presents an advanced methodology for optimizing the energy efficiency of electromechanical systems, integrating both mechanical and electrical subsystems to minimize the system's overall weight, energy losses, and transient response time. The optimization problem is approached holistically, considering the interdependence of various system parameters and applying multi-objective optimization techniques to address conflicting objectives. The analysis focuses on optimizing the gearbox speed ratio to minimize the relative weight of the motor-gearbox system while maintaining operational efficiency. A systemic approach, utilizing convex surrogate modeling and multi-stage gearboxes, is proposed to improve the scalability of the solution. The results demonstrate the existence of optimal gearbox speed ratios for various motor sizes and configurations, offering insights into the best design choices for minimizing system weight and optimizing performance. These findings apply to a range of real-world systems, including electric vehicles and industrial machinery, where minimizing weight and optimizing energy efficiency are critical for improving overall system performance and reducing operational costs.

A considerable concern arises with the precise identification of brute-force threats within a networked environment. It emphasizes the need for new methods, as existing ones often lead to many false alarms, as well as delays in real-time threat detection. To tackle these issues, this study proposes a novel intrusion detection framework that utilizes deep learning models for more accurate and efficient detection of brute-force attacks. The framework’s structure includes data collection and preprocessing components performed at the outset of the study using the CSE-CICIDS2018 dataset. The design architecture includes data collection and preprocessing steps. Feature extraction and selection techniques are employed to optimize data for model training. Further, after building the model, various attributes are extracted from the data from feature selection to be used in the training. Then, the construction of multiple architectures of deep learning algorithms, which include Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) models. Evaluation results show CNN and LSTM achieved the highest accuracy of 99.995 Parsant and 99.99 Parsant respectively. It showcases its ability to detect complex attack patterns in network traffic. It indicates that the CNN network got the best optimum results with a test time of 9.94 seconds. This establishes CNN as an effective method, achieving high accuracy quickly. In comparison, we have surpassed the accuracy of current methods while addressing their weaknesses. The findings are consistent with the effectiveness of CNN in brute-force attack detection frameworks as a more accurate and faster alternative, increasing the capability of detecting intrusions on a network in real-time.

This article investigates the inuence of digital technologies on youth participation in urban governance
within the Global South, with a specic focus on Saint-Louis, Senegal. Rapid urbanization in developing
countries has intensied the need for inclusive governance, especially as youth constitute a signicant portion of the urban
population. This study examines how access to digital tools such as smartphones, internet connectivity, and social media
shapes youth engagement in local decision-making processes. A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving a sample
of 549 youth, of whom 55% were under the age of 20. Quantitative surveys with youth were complemented by qualitative
interviews with key local governance actors and spatial mapping of digital infrastructure. The ndings reveal substantial
disparities in digital access and planning across neighborhoods. While 90% of the Northern districts and Guet Ndar exhibit
high levels of digital infrastructure and urban planning, areas like Bango (65%) and Pikine (50%) remain predominantly
informal and under-resourced. Notably, digital connectivity in Guet Ndar is overwhelmingly mobile-based (83%), highlighting
the centrality of mobile data as the primary access point. However, local government initiatives to enhance digital inclusion
remain limited, with only 4% of respondents identifying concrete efforts by municipal authorities. The study underscores the
urgent need to address infrastructural gaps and to foster participatory governance frameworks that enable meaningful youth
inclusion. It advocates for targeted policy interventions to create a more equitable digital environment, enhancing civic
engagement and governance outcomes in rapidly urbanizing contexts. By situating the case of Saint-Louis within broader SubSaharan dynamics, the article offers insights into how digital inclusion can act as a lever for sustainable urban governance in
the Global South

Authors: V Soni Tushar , D Patel Suresh , Patel Shreyansh , Singh Sandip
Published: January 2025

Background: Traumatic brain injury, especially from road accidents, is a major health crisis in India
affecting young adults. It disrupts electrolyte balance, leading to life-threatening complications. These
imbalances worsen patient outcomes and contribute to high mortality rates. Methods: A prospective observational study was
conducted on 102 TBI patients admitted to a tertiary care hospital. Clinical data, including Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores,
radiological ndings, and serum electrolyte levels, were collected and analysed. Results: Road trafc accidents were the
primary cause of TBI, with mild injuries being the most common. Electrolyte disturbances were observed in 33.33% of patients,
predominantly involving sodium and potassium. Severe TBIs exhibited a higher incidence of electrolyte disturbances, notably
hypernatremia and hypokalaemia, correlating with unfavourable outcomes. Discussion: Our ndings corroborate previous
studies, emphasizing the signicance of electrolyte monitoring in TBI management. Severe injuries, especially those affecting
the frontal lobe, predispose patients to electrolyte disturbances, necessitating vigilant monitoring and prompt correction.
Conclusion: Electrolyte disturbances are prevalent in TBI patients, particularly in cases of severe injury, and are associated
with adverse outcomes. Routine monitoring and timely correction of these disturbances are crucial for optimizing patient care
and prognosis. This study underscores the need for further research to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of electrolyte
disturbances in TBI and develop tailored management protocols, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

Published: January 2025

Introduction:Gallstone disease is a common hepatobiliary disorder with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) being the
gold standard treatment option.The standard approach utilizes four ports,however recent advancements have focused
on reducing the number or size of ports to enhance patient outcomes. Aim:This study compares the outcomes of threeport (LC3P) versus four-port (LC4P) laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The aim was to find out the better alternative
between the standard four-port and the three-port cholecystectomy.Materials And Methods: A total of 100 patients
diagnosed with symptomatic cholelithiasis were selected and were randomly assigned into two groups:Group A (n=50),
who underwent the standard four-port LC, and Group B (n=50), who underwent three-port LC using 10mm, 5mm, and
3mm ports. Results: The study showed that the mean operative time was shorter in Group A than in Group B. Postoperative pain scores were significantly lower in Group B across all time points and Cosmetic outcomes were
significantly better in Group B than Group A. The mean hospital stay was comparable between the two groups.
Conclusion: Three-port LC is technically feasible and provides improved post-operative outcomes compared to the
standard four-port technique,despite requiring slightly longer operative time.

Authors: Gohil Grishma , Purohit Alpa
Published: January 2025

Introduction:- Lower cross syndrome (LCS) is a condition which involves muscle imbalances characterised by weak
abdominals and gluteus muscle and shortened iliopsoas and lumbar extensors.Identifying the prevalence in desk job
employees who have a static work position with prolonged hours helps in early detection and can prevent further
complications such as chronic back pain and postural imbalance . Methods:- An observational study was conducted
among 63 desk job employees of both the gender between the age group of 25-50 years according to inclusion and
exclusion criteria.Muscle strength of abdominals and gluteus was assessed by manual muscle technique (MMT).Length
of iliopsoas was measured by universal goniometer and Length of lumbar extension was measured by Modified schober
test.Results:- The result of study shows that 52.63 % of population is having iliopsoas tightness,68.42% of population is
having gluteus muscle weakness,57.89% of population is having decreased length of lumbar extensors whereas 73.68%
of population is having reduced strength of abdominals.

Authors: Das Debasree , Choudhury Subrata , Anjum Shaheen
Published: January 2025

Objective – The objective of this study is to evaluate whether cervical length measured by Transvaginal ultrasound can
predict antepartum haemorrhage in women with placenta previa. Study Design- Prospective cohort study Method -
Between 2020-2022, cervical length was measured by transvaginal ultrasound in 46 cases with placenta previa
persisting into the third trimester of pregnancy. The mean cervical length was correlated to the clinical outcome of
pregnancy such as occurence of APH , need for blood transfusion, period of gestation at delivery, whether caesarean
section was elective or emergency,need for extra surgical procedures in case of bleeding and duration of hospital stay.
The patient and the baby were followed up till their discharge from the Hospital. Results – The mean ± SD cervical length
was 3.26 ± 0.35.The mean cervical length in cases who developed APH was 3.12±0.29 while in cases who did not have
APH was 3.50±0.32.The correlation coefficient of – 4.015,shows that with increase in the cervical length the incidence of
APH in placenta previa decreases significantly (p=0.001).In our study, cervical length was significantly shorter among
cases who underwent emergency caesarean section due to massive haemorrhage as compared to cases who underwent
elective caesarean section. Conclusion: The mean cervical length ≤3.1 cm is significantly associated with more
incidence of APH and emergency LSCS in women with placenta previa, leading to more incidence of PPH, blood
transfusion,peripartum hysterectomy and poor neonatal outcome due to prematurity,low birth weight babies and NICU
admissions.

This study investigates the impact of a STEAM-based instructional program on the conceptual understanding skills of
secondary school students.Using a pre-test,post-test experimental design,72 Class 9 students from a secondary school
in Gujarat were divided into experimental and control groups.The experimental group received instruction through the
STEAM framework, while the control group followed traditional teaching methods. Pre- and post-tests measured the
students' conceptual understanding abilities. Results analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U Test showed significant
improvements for the experimental group. These findings highlight the potential of STEAM education to enhance
deeper learning in science.The study suggests that integrating STEAM into school curricula can foster essential 21stcentury skills.

Published: January 2025

لجأت البشرية الى الرمز كأداة للتعبير عن صراعها المستديم مع ذاتها ومع علاقتها ببعض الموجودات، حيث مثل الرمز بالنسبة للإنسان القديم واقع وحقيقة الا انه اتخذ في فترات زمنية مفهوما ً متميزا ً عن الواقع.
لقد اختارت حضارة بلاد الرافدين الرمز كأداة لفلسفة او تغيير لعدد كبير من الظواهر الطبيعية والمعتقدات الدينية والعلوم والفنون والعادات التي وردت الينا في مختلف النتاجات الادبية والملحمية والدينية والعلمية، كما اعطى مفكرو حضارة بلاد الرافدين أهمية كبرى كرمزية الحرف والكلمة والفكرة، تلك الرمزية التي تشير الى الحكمة والكمال والفطمة، ولتعطي تفسيرات ومعالجات لقضايا غامضة غير منطقية وبأسلوب اسطوري-فلسفي يشوبه التعقيد والخيال.
