Remittances and Household Adoption of Clean Cooking Energy in Ghana
Authors: Kyeremeh C. , Fiagborlo D. J.
Published: December 2024

Purpose: Access to clean and sustainable energy sources promotes long-term economic growth by improving environmental quality and human well-being. However, most homes in poor nations depend on polluting solid fuels, which has profound implications for environmental sustainability and human health. This study examines the impact of remittance inflows on household decisions related to clean cooking fuel. It evaluates the effects of remittance income on selecting clean energy for cooking in Ghana's rural and urban regions.
Design/Methodology/Approach: The study used probit regression and data from the seventh wave of the Ghana Living Standards Survey.
Findings: The results show that while remittance inflows significantly and positively influenced clean cooking energy choices, their effects are more significant on urban families' clean energy choices than rural households. Families in rural and urban areas positively and significantly connect their clean energy usage to non-remittance income and education. In contrast, household size, rural location, age, and poverty negatively influence using clean cooking energy. Finally, deprived urban residents may choose alternative energy sources over clean cooking fuel.
Research Limitation: This research focused on remittances and household clean cooking fuel in Ghana.
Practical Implication: The results suggest that economic factors, demographic characteristics, and socioeconomic status influence clean energy adoption.
Social Implication: The findings imply that devising the right policies to encourage remittance inflows and addressing causal poverty issues presents viable options for policymakers.
Originality/Value: By examining the impact of remittances on household decisions related to clean cooking fuel in the Global South, a topic largely neglected in existing literature, the study adds to the body of knowledge on energy consumption in developing countries. The study provides significant insights for policymakers and stakeholders promoting sustainable energy transitions.
The Effect of Osteocalcin in Middle-Age Women With and Without Type2 Diabetes Mellitus
Authors: Hadeer I. Jassim  , Ammar L. Hussein
Published: December 2024

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that affects people of all ages. It's caused by deficiencies in insulin action and secretion, leading to long-term hyperglycemia. This can harm key organs such as the kidneys, heart, eyes, nerves, and blood vessels. Managing diabetes requires significant lifestyle changes and can impact both the patient and their family. Small and bone-specific, osteocalcin (OCN) is a non-collagen protein that is mostly present in bone. It is a sensitive marker of bone formation and primarily attaches to the extracellular matrix of bone after being carboxylated. Small amounts of OCN are also released into the bloodstream, where it aids in glucose and fat metabolism.
Objective: Our study aimed to examine the effect of Osteocalcin, Parathyroid hormone, Estrogen and HbA1c on middle-aged women who had type 2 diabetes compared to those who did not.
Patients and Methods: The study involved 90 middle-aged women, including 60 with type 2 diabetes, and 30 healthy women. The Sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure OCN, PTH, and E2 hormone levels in women with and without type 2 diabetes. HbA1c levels were measured using the Cobos system. The statistical analysis was performed using SPSS software.
Results: In T2DM women, serum OCN, PTH, E2, and HbA1c levels were compared with non-diabetic women. T2DM women had significantly lower levels of serum OCN and PTH, and significantly higher levels of HbA1c than healthy women. Serum E2 levels were also significantly lower in T2DM women. OCN had a positive correlation with HbA1c and negative correlations with PTH and E2.
Conclusion: Significant change was detected in this study in the level of OCN, PTH and E2 between patients and controls. Investigations of serum OCN can be participated in the future as predictive marker for osteoporosis in diabetic women.
Keywords: Osteocalcin, parathyroid hormone, estrogen, Type2 diabetes mellitus.

Authors: Beşli Muhammed Ali , Bayrakdar Muhammed Enes
Published: December 2024

Araç özel ağları, yeni bir araştırma alanı olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Araçtan araca(V2V) ve araçtan yol kenarına(V2R) birim iletişimlerini kullanarak trafik sıkışıklığını azaltmanın yanı sıra emniyet ve güvenliği sağlamak için akıllı ulaşım sistemlerinde araç özel ağları (VANET’ler) yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Sürücü hataları (örn. Sürücünün dikkatsizliği ve dikkat dağılması, dikkatsiz araç kullanma ve zayıf sürüş becerileri) ve diğer yol kullanıcılarının hataları (örn. Trafik ihlalleri) dahil olmak üzere insan hataları nedeniyle trafik kazalarında pek çok kişi ciddi şekilde yaralanmakta ve hatta hayatını kaybetmektedir. Ayrıca araç arızları (örn. Fren arızası) veya çevresel koşullar (örn. Yetersiz yol bilgisi veya güvenlik altyapısının eksikliği) de trafik güvenliğini etkilemektedir. Ülkemizde de meydana gelen ölümlü yaralanmalı trafik kazalarının arasında sürücü kusuru zirvede yerini korumaktadır. TÜİK verilerine göre on yıllardır sürücü kusurunun toplam kusura oranının %88’in altına hiç düşmemiş olması bu sorunun kronik bir sorun haline gelen ve üzerine düşünülmesi, çözüm(ler) üretilmesi gereken bir konu olduğunu göstermektedir. Sürücülerin hata yapma ihtimalini arttıran etmenlerin başında daha önce tecrübe etmedikleri navigasyon yardımı ile ilerledikleri yollar gelmektedir. Tam bu noktada daha önce tecrübe etmediği bir yolda seyahat eden bir şoförün ilgili güzergahta daha önce çok sayıda kaza gerçekleşmiş noktaya yaklaşırken uyarılması gerekmektedir. Bu projede de tam olarak bu amaçlanmaktadır. Geçmişte çok sayıda kaza yaşanan kaza kara noktalarına yaklaşmakta olan şoförün uyarılarak kaza riski yüksek noktalarda daha fazla dikkat edilmesi sağlanabilmektedir. Bunun sonucu olarak sürücü kusuru sebebiyle meydana gelen kazaların en aza indirilmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Bu Kaza Bilgilendirme Sistemi (KABİS) uygulaması ile yapılmaktadır.

Authors: Petrova E. E. , Karnaeva E. V. , Shcherbak V. A. , Aksenova T. A.
Published: December 2024

A review of domestic and foreign scientific publications from 2018 to 2023 was conducted. The search was carried out using the Pubmed biomedical research database and the Russian Science Citation Index. 1673 articles were found, using keywords. Various etiological and pathogenetic variants of gastroduodenitis (GD) are considered. One of the most common pathogens of gastroduodenal pathology is Helicobacter pylori (Hp), which, due to its virulence factors, can persist for a long time on the mucous membrane of the stomach and duodenum, thereby causing its inflammation, subsequently leading to gross damage to the mucosa and complications of gastrointestinal tract. Today, despite the prevalence of Hp, many new etiological agents are found: cytomegalovirus, Epstein - Barr viruses, Lamblia intestinalis, Blastocystis spp., Entamoeba spp. and various factors contributing to the development of this disease. For example, such as human constitution, environment, gender differences, age, genetics, drug exposure, stress, the relationship of perinatal brain lesions, endothelial dysfunction and immunity with the detection of GD has also been described. Every year the range of etiological agents expands, which leads to changes in the pathogenesis of GD.

Published: December 2024

Low nutrient along with intense sunlight levels in sandy drylands, often lead to poor crops yield. This study examined the effects of soil amendments and shading on the yield of red chili plants cultivated in a sandy (70% sand, 15% clay and 15% silt) dryland environment. The experiment was conducted in Gumantar Village, North Lombok Regency from May to September 2024. The C-organic content of the soil was 1.11% with only 0.09% of total nitrogen. The soil amendment treatments included no soil amendment, chicken manure, and seaweed biochar. The shading treatments consisted of two levels: no shading and shading using a 200-micron UV plastic with 14% diffusive ultraviolet ray. All treatments were arranged factorially using a randomized block design with three replications. The results indicated that soil amendments and shading did not significantly affect plant growth, certain soil chemical properties, or microbial populations, possibly due to its short time effect. However, both types of soil amendments and UV plastic shading increased the yield of red chili plants by approximately 6.0% compared to the treatment without any amendments or without shading. This study shows that soil amendment and shading with UV plastic improve tomato yield in sandy dryland soils.

O Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA) é uma condição do neurodesenvolvimento que afeta a interação social, a comunicação e o comportamento, e seus desafios se intensificam na adolescência devido às mudanças físicas, emocionais, biológicas e sociais típicas dessa fase. Adolescentes com TEA frequentemente enfrentam dificuldades em se socializar, lidar com frustrações e interagir com seus pares, o que pode levar ao isolamento e, em alguns casos, à depressão. Além disso, a convivência fora do ambiente familiar, como na escola, é marcada por dificuldades de adaptação, exclusão e bullying. O apoio da família e a intervenção terapêutica são fundamentais para o desenvolvimento e bem-estar desses adolescentes, mas muitas famílias ainda carecem de conhecimento sobre as políticas públicas e os recursos disponíveis.
The Influence and Application of Blood Type Personality Theory in Human Resource Recruitment: A Case Study from a Chinese Manufacturing Enterprise
Authors: Bai Tian , Gu Chong
Published: December 2024

As a senior HR executive at Kinlong Hardware in China, I observed a recurring phenomenon during my 10+ years of recruitment experience: employees with different blood types exhibit distinct personality traits that influence their sales performance, turnover tendencies, and team dynamics. Using data from the company's Oracle database from 2015 to 2023, we analyzed the records of 2,241 sales employees, categorizing blood types B and O as extroverted and blood types A and AB as introverted for both quantitative and qualitative research. Results showed that, controlling for other factors, sales performance of extroverted blood types was 36.48% higher than that of introverted types, but their turnover rate was also 15.29% higher. For team composition, based on blood type traits, we recommend a mix of 60% O types for stability, 20% B types for aggressive sales efforts, and 20% A and AB types for leadership and decision-making roles.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks as the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, with treatment challenges largely attributed to late-stage diagnoses, frequent recurrences, and resistance to therapy. In recent years, Fruquintinib, a selective vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) inhibitor, has shown notable effectiveness in advanced CRC by targeting angiogenesis. However, CRC cells often activate autophagy in response to hypoxia and nutrient deprivation caused by anti-angiogenic therapy, which diminishes the therapeutic efficacy of Fruquintinib. Autophagy plays a dual role in CRC by suppressing tumorigenesis through the removal of damaged organelles, while facilitating tumor progression and therapeutic resistance through metabolic adaptation in advanced stages. This complexity underscores the therapeutic promise of strategies targeting autophagy. Current studies reveal that Fruquintinib induces autophagy by inhibiting VEGFR signaling, activating AMPK, and suppressing mTOR, while interacting synergistically with other cell death mechanisms such as apoptosis, ferroptosis, and pyroptosis to enhance its antitumor activity. However, excessive autophagy activation may enable tumor cell survival and promote resistance, highlighting the necessity of precise modulation of autophagy in combination therapies. Moreover, preclinical studies indicate that combining Fruquintinib with autophagy modulators significantly enhances its antitumor effects and delays resistance emergence. This review offers a systematic analysis of Fruquintinib's antitumor mechanisms via autophagy modulation and its potential clinical implications. Based on the reviewed evidence, we propose strategies to optimize Fruquintinib-based combination therapies, including the use of autophagy-related biomarkers, autophagy modulators, and precision medicine approaches tailored to tumor genomic profiles, aiming to enhance treatment outcomes for CRC patients.
Higher Carbon Tax Rates More Effective in Reducing Emissions in G20 Countries?
Authors: Wahyudi Heru , Sandra Mei Leny
Published: December 2024

This study investigates the impact of carbon tax policies on carbon emission reductions in G20 countries to support the achievement of the Net Zero Emissions target by 2060. As the G20 collectively accounts for a significant share of global greenhouse gas emissions, effective policy interventions in these nations are pivotal to addressing the climate crisis. The research employs the Pearson correlation test to quantify the statistical relationship between carbon tax rates and emission levels, alongside a content analysis of sustainability reports from G20 countries to evaluate policy implementation and outcomes. The results reveal a moderate yet statistically significant negative correlation (r = −0.30, p < 0.05), indicating that higher carbon taxes are associated with lower emission levels. Content analysis further demonstrates that countries with high and consistently enforced carbon taxes, such as Japan and South Korea, achieve more substantial emissions reductions compared to nations with lower tax rates or inconsistent policy implementation. The findings emphasize that while carbon taxes serve as an effective instrument to internalize the social costs of carbon pollution, their impact is maximized when integrated with broader strategies, including investments in renewable energy, advancements in energy efficiency, and technological innovation. This research contributes to the understanding of carbon tax effectiveness and offers policy recommendations to strengthen fiscal measures as part of comprehensive climate action strategies toward achieving global sustainability targets.

Published: December 2024

Gene therapy holds promise for treating diabetes by addressing its root causes at the molecular level. A key factor in its success is the development of effective delivery systems, with polymeric carriers emerging as versatile vehicles. This review highlights the molecular design of polymeric carriers for diabetes gene therapy, focusing on critical parameters like polymer structure, size, charge, and surface modification that influence gene encapsulation and release.
Biodegradable polymers such as PLGA, chitosan, and PEI are emphasized for their ability to protect therapeutic genes and enable controlled release. In diabetes, these carriers aim to deliver genes that modulate insulin production, enhance β-cell regeneration, or prevent immune-mediated destruction. The review also explores stimulus-responsive polymers that offer on-demand release based on glucose levels.
Recent preclinical and clinical studies are discussed, addressing challenges and strategies for optimizing polymeric carriers. These molecular design insights could pave the way for safer, more efficient gene delivery systems in diabetes treatment.
This abstract emphasizes the design principles, challenges, and emerging strategies in polymeric carrier systems for gene therapy in diabetes.

Postprandial hypertriglyceridemia is now established as an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). This metabolic abnormality is principally initiated by overproduction and/or decreased catabolism of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) and is a consequence of predisposing genetic variations and medical conditions such as obesity and insulin resistance. Accumulation of TRLs in the postprandial state promotes the retention of remnant particles in the artery wall. Because of their size, most remnant particles cannot cross the endothelium as efficiently as smaller low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles. However, since each remnant particle contains approximately 40 times more cholesterol compared with LDL, elevated levels of remnants may lead to accelerated atherosclerosis and CVD. The recognition of postprandial hypertriglyceridemia in the clinical setting has been severely hampered by technical difficulties and the lack of established clinical protocols for investigating postprandial lipemia, The aim of our study is to evaluate the diagnostic value of postprandial triglycerides (TG) in type 2 diabetic subjects.
Patients and Methods: This was a prospective, descriptive, cross-sectional study of 112 patients diabetes, from April 2022 to July 2022.
Results: Our population consisted of 112 diabetic patients aged between 30 and 70 years, with an average age of 50. Taking into account the established thresholds: A normal postprandial triglyceride level is defined as a serum level of of 1.82±0.40 at 2h, our study shows a prevalence of post prandial hypertriglyceridaemia of 52%.
Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate that patients with type 2 diabetes who were subjected to a standardised fat meal challenge exhibited a notable elevation in triglyceride levels following the ingestion of the meal. It can be postulated that persistent postprandial hypertriglyceridemia may result in a pro-atherogenic environment, which in turn may lead to the development of atherosclerosis and macrovascular disease in subjects with type 2 diabetes.

Scabies is a parasitic infestation of the skin caused by Sarcoptes scabiei. Scabies is a common public health problem that occurs globally, affecting approximately 130 million individual. Despite the high prevalence of scabies, scabies is categorized into one of the Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) by World Health Organization (WHO). Scabies can cause relentless itching and specific lesions, but there is also an atypical findings that can be found depending in each individuals patient. Although scabies is not fatal or life-threatening, it can be severe and persistent, and if not treat properly leading to secondary skin infections and also becomes contagious. Literature reviews on the characteristics of scabies are still very limited. Therefore, researchers are interested in conducting research about the characteristics of scabies patients.
