REPRODUCTION OF HUMAN CAPITAL AS A SYSTEM OF ECONOMIC RELATIONS
Authors:   Khmelnytskyi National University, SHEVCHENKO D.
Published: January 2025

The article determines that at present time in public, including scientific circles, the need for increasing social investments, which are related to the accumulation of human capital, is discussed more insistently. The author notes that every scientific theory faces conflicting processes of ideas confrontation in its development and concepts, the theory of human capital in this regard is no exception. It is proved that in connection with this feature, an increasing number of studies not only constantly clarifies the aspects of the category of human capital, reveals its new properties and qualities, but also expands the interpretation of this concept. It is stated that the reproduction of human capital is becoming part of the “present - future” problem, the key issues of which are social need and the ratio of investments in physical, social and individual human capital. The systematic and balanced development of human capital that is relevant to both the national economic and internal needs of the person is really important. In this regard, a theoretical study of this problem on the methodological basis of political economy is an urgent task for the theoretical justification of the state policy practical issues in the field of society's human capital reproduction based on an individual-oriented approach. The imperatives of individual human capital reproduction are determined, on the one hand, by the systemic needs of a person, and, on the other hand, by the needs of social production, which necessitates a theoretical and methodological justification, software development and implementation of an individual-oriented approach to human capital management with a view to its expanded and balanced reproduction at both the micro and the macro level in the unity of individual and social needs. The fundamental imperatives of human capital reproduction in modern economy have been determined. They are objectively specified by the tendencies of the contradictory development of economic relations system, based on two processes: integration (transition from simple to complex) and differentiation (transition from homogeneous to heterogeneous) production. It has been established that if progressive specialization is one side of the dialectical contradiction of labor relations, and the formation of aggregate labor based on modern types of cooperation is the other, then the unity of these opposites lies in all forms of labor manifestation. The dualism nature of human capital’s social role in social combination of production has been determined, due to the fact that in the system of labor division, the functional role of the labor force associated with template labor is passive, and its accumulation is carried out within the framework of horizontal labor mobility.

The Role of Scientific Family Traditions in Societal Advancement in the Levant and Egypt:A Focus on Ibn Saghīr’s Family (478-759 AH / 1085-1357 AD)
Authors: Awad Riad Salim
Published: January 2025

The current study aims to emphasize the importance of the ethical and scientific standards in child-rearing, encouraging parents to raise their children with a mindset that reflects the goals of modern society for holistic individual and societal growth. Additionally, it encourages the need to urge the ruling authority in the country to adopt a vision that reinforce and support the family unit’s role in society. The findings show that  the Ibn Saghīr family maintained its esteemed reputation in Islamic history for over 280 years, due to their commitment to a well-rounded and morally-grounded education. This approach led to the emergence of around eighteen scholars, including a Hadīth scholar, jurist, poet, historian, engineer, and astronomer. They all spent their lives in significantly contributing to various fields within the Islamic community, such as science, administration, economics, and others. The government of that era recognized their contributions by appointing them on prominent positions  like judge, minister, teacher, financial supervisor and royal envoy, honoring their academic achievements, administrative skill, and integrity.
Orientalist Interpretations of Waḥy: Qur’ānic Revelation in 19th and 20th Century Studies
Authors: Abdelgalil Reda
Published: January 2025

This research focuses on waḥy (Qur’ānic revelation), a central term in Islamic theology and a focal point in orientalist discourse. It scrutinizes the extensive array of orientalists’ interpretations of waḥy that ranged from scholarly inquiry to outright skepticism. It goes beyond standard linguistic interpretations, unraveling the concept of waḥy, its translation and broader meanings as viewed by prominent orientalists from the 19th and 20th centuries. The study applies both the analytical and the critical methodologies to provide a contextual analysis to the philosophical and scientific approaches that shaped these orientalists’ perceptions on waḥy, assessing their underlying assumptions. The critique approach aims to engage with their interpretations critically and evaluate their translations of waḥy, examining the extent to which they are anchored in trustworthy and genuine Islamic resources. The research concludes by revealing disparities among orientalists; some of whom challenged the divine essence of Islam and posited theories suggesting that waḥy might have stemmed from external influences or personal disposition of Muhammad (SAW), contrasting sharply with the Islamic sacred view of waḥy. Their theories have significantly shaped the broader western perception of Islam, often portraying Islam as a faith rooted in human and lacking divine authenticity and originality. While other orientalists demonstrated more balanced and impartial views on waḥy, basically rooted in genuine Islamic scholarship. Their views have actively promoted an authentic understanding of waḥy from within its own Islamic worldview, challenging the orientalists’ biased narrative.

Authors: Nawaz Muhammad Shah , Sabir Irfan , Majid Muhammad Bilal , Rafique Asma
Published: January 2025

This research investigates the influence of consumer attitude and awareness on the intention to buy halal cosmetics, particularly examining the role of consumer religiosity. As halal product demand rises, especially in Pakistan, it is essential to promote positive consumer attitudes and raise awareness to increase halal purchases. The current research was conducted in Punjab, Pakistan, with student participants from private medical colleges and universities. A quantitative approach was used, incorporating pre-testing and pilot testing, followed by survey distribution through random sampling.  A total of 379 responses were deemed valid and analyzed. Data analysis was done using SPSS, while structural equation modeling (SEM) was performed using AMOS. The study found that while religiosity alone did not directly influence halal purchase intentions; instead, both attitude and awareness served as significant mediators. In other words, religiosity only impacts purchase intentions when paired with positive attitudes and heightened awareness. These insights contribute to the halal cosmetics industry and literature, offering strategies for policymakers and marketers in Pakistan's expanding halal cosmetics market to better manage consumer awareness and attitudes.

Published: January 2025

Introdução: A tuberculose cutânea resulta de uma infeção crónica por Mycobacterium tuberculosis. A apresentação clínica associada depende de vários fatores, entre os quais o local da infeção e o estado imunitário do hospedeiro.

Descrição do caso: Relata-se o caso de uma mulher de 58 anos, natural de Angola, que recorreu aos cuidados de saúde primários com sintomas de edema, calor e rubor no primeiro dedo da mão direita, sendo assumido o diagnóstico de paroníquia. Porém, a doente manteve as queixas, com aparecimento de furúnculos de forma intermitente e progressivamente em maior número. Foi encaminhada para a consulta de dermatologia para realização de biópsia, que viria a reportar dermatose granulomatosa necrotizante. Consequentemente, realizou a testagem para tuberculose através do teste IGRA (interferon gamma release assay), que se revelou positivo.

Comentário: O diagnóstico de tuberculose cutânea exige um alto grau de suspeição por parte do médico. Neste sentido, importa alertar para esta forma clínica da infeção por tuberculose para que casos de uma doença tratável e de notificação obrigatória não passem despercebidos.
New Insight into Erythema Reduction Induced by Quercetin-Metal Ion Chelates
Authors: Bolaño Alvarez Alain , Arvesen Kristian B. , Hjuler Kasper F. , Bjerring Peter , Petersen Steffen B.
Published: January 2025

In dermatology, chelates play a significant role in skin care and treatment of skin diseases. Chelates involve coordination bonding between metal ions and organic molecules such as flavonoids. Quercetin (Q) is an extensively studied natural flavonoid with proven safety and anti-inflammatory properties. This study shows the role of two biocompatible metal ions, Iron (FE2+) and Copper (CU2+) in coordination bonding with Q in 2-Propanol 50% and 80% at 1:1 stoichiometry. Our results show that chelation involves the hydroxyl groups and occurs by coordination of CU2+ to Q for the Ring A-B (Benzoyl group) resulting in a fluorescence emission peak at 530nm from the Ring B-C (Cinnamoyl group). This chelates Q+CU2+ reduces mechanically induced erythema in the skin (Tanned type). A similar effect was observed in the chelate Q+FE2+ where the coordination of FE2+ to Q occurs for the cinnamoyl group resulting in an emission peak at 425nm from Benzoyl group of Q. The statistical analysis shows significant differences in the effects of Q+CU2+ (p-value = 0.00001), Q+FE2+ (p-value = 0.0003) respect to Q as well as between them (p-value =0.0029). Our results suggest that the interaction between Q and metal ions plays a central role in the inflammatory pathway. We conclude that the anti-inflammatory properties of Q were enhanced by both Q+FE2+ and Q+CU2+ chelates, highlighting the effect of Q+FE2+ where the hydroxyl groups available in the cinnamoyl group of the Q molecule are the main intermediates to interact with FE2+, which is a requirement to trigger the anti-inflammatory molecular events of Q molecules.

Published: January 2025

The field emission current in a vacuum (\(I_{T} = \alpha E^{2}/e^{\beta/E}\), where \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\) are constants) depends on the electric field strength E. In other words, the differential resistance \({(dI_{T}/dV)}^{- 1}\) in a vacuum does not follow Ohm's law. Therefore, the relationship governing the capacitance and current between two electrodes in a vacuum is an intriguing research topic. In this study, we construct an interface structure in which contact areas and non-contact vacuum areas coexist by adhering two Si wafers and measure the capacitance characteristics of this structure. A volatile capacitance appears at the interface, with the contact areas contributing to positive capacitance and the vacuum areas contributing to negative capacitance. The tunneling current passing through the interface plays an important role in the formation of the negative capacitance.

Published: January 2025

As a non-profit religious institution, a church relies heavily on accurate and timely information to support its decision-making processes, including the recording of congregation attendance at each service. GMIT Sion Oepura, however, has traditionally depended on manual methods using a hand tally counter, which often leads to data inaccuracies and delays in disseminating information. Through this Community Service Program (Kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat – PKM), a digital accounting information system utilizing Android-based smartphones was implemented to record congregation attendance in real time. This initiative improved data accuracy, streamlined administrative workflows, and facilitated more efficient dissemination of information to the congregation, thereby significantly enhancing the church’s overall transparency and accountability. Moreover, the positive feedback from both congregants and church administrators suggests that this innovation has substantial potential to be adopted in other church environments as a more effective, technology-driven organizational management model.

Authors: Dr.N.Kala  , Premanand Narasimhan
Published: January 2025

India is one of the most bio-diverse Nation. Organised illegal wildlife trafficking and poaching poses threat as it creates an imbalance in the ecosystem as such. In case this situation continues some species will soon become extinct. The major legislative framework in India for addressing wildlife crime is the Wild Life (Protection) Act of 1972. The methods, strategies, and procedures employed by various Governments to look into wildlife crimes are inconsistent, which usually leads to problems with operations and the law. Diverse countries use different tactics, methodologies, and procedures to look into wildlife crimes, and this lack of consistency usually leads to operational and legal problems. Therefore, it is absolutely necessary to establish a clear-cut method for looking into wildlife infractions. Wildlife trafficking is becoming a serious concern to many plant and animal species as well. So much so, it has been classified as a subdivision of organised crime. Illegal wildlife is facilitated by the use of the internet. This paper focuses on data analytics of cybercrime investigation with a specific focus on wildlife trade.

Phenological Plasticity and Its Thermal Determinants in Common Songbirds across Europe
Authors: Cuchot Paul
Published: January 2025

Phenological plasticity—the ability of organisms to adjust breeding timing in response to environmental variability —is the primary mechanism for seasonal organisms as it enables to synchronize their life cycles with seasonal resource availability. Theory predicts that phenological plasticity should vary among populations because of environmental heterogeneity, and among species because of life-history and phylogenetic constraints. However, comprehensive, multi-species, and cross-population analyses of phenological plasticity remain scarce. Here, we address this gap by using a unique, four-decade dataset from Europe-wide monitoring of common songbirds. Our approach reveals how variation in phenological plasticity is structured according to site thermal properties, both within and across species. We found that long-distance migrants generally exhibit lower plasticity than residents or short-distance migrants, highlighting a fundamental constraint tied to migration strategy. Within species, populations inhabiting thermally highly predictable sites showed slightly stronger plastic responses, particularly among single-brooded species and those adapted to warmer breeding conditions. Notably, populations from the fastest-warming regions demonstrated marginally greater plasticity, regardless of other ecological traits, suggesting a global tendency for increased responsiveness in rapidly changing climates. These findings confirm and extend patterns previously observed at smaller scales, offering a more nuanced understanding of how local thermal conditions drive phenological plasticity. By demonstrating that the interplay between local environmental conditions and life-history traits underpins variation in breeding phenological responses, our study refines the current framework for predicting adaptive potential across populations and species under climate change.

THE IMPACT OF THE MONETARY POLICY'S INTEREST RATE TRANSMISSION ON INDONESIA'S REGIONAL ECONOMIC GROWTH
Authors: TRIANDINI NOER AIDA
Published: January 2025

The trade conflict that persisted in 2018 put pressure on global trade volumes and reduced economic growth overall. The global economic downturn has hampered economic growth in a number of countries. The economies of the ASEAN region's member nations generally grow faster than those of developed and developing nations combined. Indonesia was able to post stronger economic growth in 2018 despite the world economy contracting and uncertainty rising, but regional economic growth in Indonesia does not correspond with Indonesia's economic growth, which is trending upward. An instrument that can impact a nation's macroeconomic stability and economic expansion is its monetary policy. This research aims to analyze the monetary policy transmission mechanism through which interest rates influence regional economic growth in Indonesia. The author uses the Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) to measure the impact of monetary policy shocks within the monetary policy framework set by Central Bank of Indonesia. The results show that the framework that has been established by Central Bank of Indonesia through the transmission of monetary policy through the interest rate channel does not provide a uniform response at the regional level.

El coneixement arqueològic del sistema defensiu medieval i modern de la vila de Sant Feliu de Guíxols: l’exemple de la finca de l’avinguda Juli Garreta, número 20
Authors: Vivo Llorca Jordi
Published: January 2025

La vila medieval de Sant Feliu de Guíxols estava protegida mitjançant un sistema defensiu format per una muralla, un conjunt de torres i un fossat. El moment final té una data i unes circumstàncies molt precises, però la construcció i les fases evolutives són molt més desconegudes, com a conseqüència del moment primerenc en què fou aterrat i el desenvolupament urbanístic dels espais que havia ocupat, que en van comportar la desaparició física. Només quan s’esdevenen reformes que afecten el sòl del casc antic sorgeixen oportunitats per localitzar-ne trams i estudiar-los arqueològicament, com el que es presenta en aquest treball.
An Exposition on Critical Point Theory with Applications
Authors:   Department of Mathematics, Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, India, De Subham
Published: January 2025

Critical Point Theory plays a pivotal role in the study of Partial Differential Equations (PDEs), particularly in investigating
the existence, uniqueness, and multiplicity of weak solutions to elliptic PDEs under specified boundary conditions. This article
offers a concise survey of key concepts, including differentiation on Banach spaces, the analysis of maxima and minima, and
their applications to PDEs. Additionally, we explore the construction of weak topologies on Banach spaces before introducing the
Variational Principle and its relevance to solving PDEs. In the final section, we focus on results pertaining to the existence of weak
solutions for Dirichlet boundary value problems under specific conditions. A highlight of this work is the proof of Rabinowitz’s
Saddle Point Theorem via the Brouwer Degree method. Researchers interested in exploring the themes covered in this paper will
find the reference section to be a valuable resource for further study

Applying best practices in designing extended matching questions (EMQs) is fundamental for accurately assessing the higher order cognitive skills of medical students. EMQs, when wellconstructed, can evaluate critical thinking, clinical reasoning, and decision-making skills, which are vital in the medical field. Prioritizing clarity, relevance, and complexity in question design, educators can create assessments that align more closely with real-world medical problemsolving. Implementing these strategies is a key step towards uplifting the standards of medical education. This paper offers a comprehensive guide in designing high quality EMQs that test higher order cognitive skills of medical students, aiming to promote best assessment practices in medical education and uphold high standards of student evaluation.

Objectives This intervention study aimed to evaluate mindfulness meditation as a method of treatment for cancer outpatients for stress reduction and control of symptoms of depression and to find out effects of socio demographic differences.
Method Cancer outpatients were randomly selected on separate clinic dates at the National Cancer Institute of Sri Lanka and were enrolled as cases (n=44) and controls (n=30). Volunteers followed training sessions once weekly in addition to home based mindfulness meditation. All participants were asked to complete the “Beck’s Depression” and “Symptoms of Stress” questionnaires prior to intervention and at each session. Controls were assessed based on the identical questionnaire at start and end of 9 weeks. Both groups were heterogeneous in age, sociodemographic characteristics and cancer types / stage.
Result At the end of the intervention, patients in the intervention group had significantly lower scores of depressions and stress. Reduction in Beck’s depression score was from 33.21 to 24.56 (p<0.001) in the treatment group, compared to 34.5 to 32.34 (p>0.05) in the control group. Reduction in Symptoms of Stress Inventory from 21.21 to 10.76 (p<0.001) was seen in the intervention group, compared to 22.50 to 25.5 increase in controls. Significant changes (p<0.05) were seen in all age categories, gender, education, income and levels of social interactions.
Conclusion Mindfulness meditation programme was effective in decreasing levels of depression and stress in people with cancer, irrespective of socio-demographic backgrounds and cancer types or stages.
