Authors: Yang Lan
Published: January 2024

ESG investment promotes the high-quality development of China's economy, and at the same time brings risks and challenges to the market. there is a certain contradiction between the long-cycle nature of ESG investment and the liquidity of commercial banks. In this context, how to stimulate commercial banks to take the initiative to improve ESG investment, and how ESG investment will have an impact on the liquidity risk of commercial banks has become an urgent issue to be considered. This paper selects the annual panel data of 37 commercial banks in China from 2009 to 2022, empirically tests the theoretical research hypotheses, and empirically investigates the impact of ESG investment on the liquidity risk of commercial banks by using the dynamic panel system generalised moment estimation (GMM), finally, after the above theoretical analyses and empirical studies, this paper draws the following conclusions: from the medium and long term perspective , ESG investment reduces the liquidity risk of commercial banks. Based on this, it is recommended to improve the information disclosure system and rating system of ESG investment, to promote the benign development of ESG investment in the banking industry, and to facilitate the realisation of China's "dual-carbon" goal.
A Comparison of the Macroeconomic Systems in China and Thailand under Impossible Triangle Theory
Authors: Li Haocheng
Published: January 2024

Amidst the 1997 Asian financial crisis, the contrasting experiences of China and Thailand shed light on the pivotal role played by capital controls in economic resilience. This study aims to employ a mixed-method approach, combining qualitative and quantitative methods, as well as comparative analysis, to delve deeper into the dynamics at play. The central argument posited here revolves around China's effective employment of capital controls, which facilitated the preservation of a fixed exchange rate regime and the seamless execution of an expansionary monetary policy. These measures shielded China from the adverse repercussions of the financial crisis. In contrast, Thailand's excessive capital liberalization and unwavering commitment to a fixed exchange rate system stripped the country of its ability to independently manage monetary policy. Consequently, Thailand suffered devastating consequences in the wake of the crisis.
Alphabet: Innovation Analysis
Authors: Song Xinyu , Yang Weihen
Published: January 2024

The pervasive growth of society has led to an increasing reliance on the Internet in people's daily lives. Among the integral components of the Internet, search engines play a pivotal role in enhancing usage efficiency. In this field, Alphabet is the industry leader among them. Therefore, this study focuses on analyzing Alphabet's business innovation pattern using a SWOT analysis. This research makes the case that Alphabet now benefits from a high product penetration rate for Google. Google's product advertising, on the other hand, is highly beneficial and helps to form a business model that combines products and advertisements. However, Alphabet faces a challenge wherein its customer base often confuses Google as a company rather than a product. The results of SWOT analyses showed that Alphabet has fresh prospects in the AI space. Alphabet's prospects are demonstrated by the introduction of self-driving technology under the Waymo brand, which combines a deep learning framework with additional AI technologies. Despite these opportunities, Alphabet is exposed to three major risks. Among these, the most substantial concern is the exorbitant cost associated with conducting subpar AI research. Furthermore, while Google entered the cloud computing arena later and with a smaller stake, heightened scrutiny from competitors intensified the rivalry in this field. Crucially, Google's handling of personal private data has come under scrutiny, potentially tarnishing the company's reputation and triggering a series of adverse events. The study presented in this paper can offer some suggestions for business strategies for rapidly emerging domestic information enterprises.

Published: January 2024

Abstrack
Currently, corporations have a very important role for society, both positive and negative sides. The negative side of the large role of corporations is committing acts of corruption. In many cases of corruption, corporations are often caught and punished. The same thing happened to Decision No. 3/Pid.Sus-TPK/2018/PT.DKI which dropped the Main Director as the party responsible for corrupt behavior by corporations. The main focus of this research lies in criminal liability and the imposition of sanctions given to corporations. To make it easier to analyze the decision, researchers used normative legal research methods with a conceptual approach and statutory regulations. Based on the research results, it can be concluded that corporate criminal liability applied to Indonesian laws and regulations is mixed. On this basis, the judge imposed a sanction on the director of the corporation with imprisonment. In addition, the judge also imposed fines on corporations.

Published: January 2024

Objective: Dementia is a common aging-related neurodegenerative disease in the elderly worldwide. Alterations in neurogenesis and angiogenesis factors have been linked to cognitive impairment in neurological disorders. However, synthetic drugs to improve memory disorders have uncomfortable side effects. The purpose of this study is to explore the neuroprotective potential of the fruit ethanol extract of andaliman (Zanthoxylum acanthopodium DC) [Andaliman fruit ethanol extract (AEE)] on brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and spatial memory in rat models of aging.
Materials and Methods: This study had an experimental design with AEE. The 4 groups were treated as follows: N (normal), M (served as positive control), P1 (AEE 150 mg/kg bw), and P2 (AEE 300 mg/kg BW) for 8 weeks. Aged model rats (M, P1, and P2) were obtained by inducing D-galactose (150 mg/kg bw). BDNF and VEGF expression were determined by RT-PCR, and spatial memory was assessed using the test of the Moris Water Maze (MWM). The Kruskal–Wallis and Mann–Whitney tests were used to assess the statistical analysis.
Results: AEE had a tendency to increase BDNF in P2 compared to the normal group (1.98 versus 1). VEGF expression increased in P1 and P2 compared to the normal group (1.14 and 1.29 versus 1). AEE at a dose of 300 mg/kg bw significantly improved spatial memory (p = 0.026).
Conclusion: For eight weeks, AEE at a dose of 300 mg/kg bw considerably increased the potential to enhance VEGF and BDNF expression as well as spatial memory.

Published: January 2024

Objective: The aerolysin (aerA) is a virulence indicator used to identify the pathogenicity of the Aeromonas strain. Targeting a pathogen’s crucial virulence gene for detection is essential, as it determines the potential threat to the host. This study aimed to develop a gold nanoparticle (AuNP) probe for detecting the gene aerA in Aeromonas hydrophila among field samples.
Materials and Methods: Kidney samples among both healthy and sick Nile tilapias in five provinces of Luzon Island were collected for bacterial analysis. Screening using specific primers targeting aerA was conducted in parallel with testing the AuNPs probe on the same sample set. The positive control provided by BFAR-NFLD, confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay, was used as a positive sample containing the target gene.
Results: The AuNP probe demonstrated a computed accuracy of 81.32%, sensitivity of 100%, and specificity of 81.26%. Among the 257 reactions, 59 were false positives, while no false negative results were observed. The AuNP probe could detect aerA at levels as low as 30 ng/μl. The low prevalence of the target gene may be attributed to the use of general media instead of specific media like Rimler-Shotts agar.
Conclusion: The established colorimetric detection method for A. hydrophila with the aerA gene offers a swift alternative to PCR, negating the requirement for advanced equipment like a thermal cycler.

Published: January 2024

This study conducted a literature review to investigate the immunomodulatory effect of levamisole in both humans and farm animals. The following procedure was followed for database searching: PubMed, Google Scholar, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library. All research works were updated to September 2022. The terms used in the literature search were included: (“levamisole” OR “immunity” OR “immune system”) AND (“adjuvant” OR “fish” OR “poultry” OR “farm animal” OR “cattle” OR “sheep”). The current review enlightens the extensive potential of levamisole as an adjuvant immunotherapeutic agent and explains its divergent applications beyond its antiparasitic use as an adjuvant, dietary supplement, immunostimulant, antiviral, and anti-cancer drug in humans and farm animals. In the articles examined, various mechanisms have been proposed for levamisole immunoprotective effects, but hormonal alteration and stress hormone reduction are indicated as the main mechanisms in various animal species.

Published: January 2024

Objective: This study investigated the effectiveness of different physical forms of feed containing Ipomoea aquatica waste and concentrate feed on the rumen characteristics, chewing activity, and performance of sheep.
Materials and Methods: Twenty-four rams (19.87 ± 2.19 kg) were arranged in a completely randomized design. Rams were fed dried I. aquatica waste and concentrate feed provided separately (RCF) (conventional feeding system), and total mixed ration consisted of mash complete feed (MCF), and pelleted complete feed (PCF). The data were analyzed using a one-way analysis of variance.
Results: The dry matter intake (DMI), average daily gain, and feed conversion ratio of rams fed different physical forms of feed containing I. aquatica waste in their diet were similar between the treatments, ranging from 4.08% to 4.29% of body weight, 120–180 gm, and 6.32–9.17, respectively. Different physical feeds did not affect microbial synthesis in the rumen. Methane emissions per unit of production were similar between the groups. The PCF sheep ate faster (0.24 min/gm DMI) than the MCF sheep (0.38 min/gm DMI), but similar to the RCF sheep (0.31 min/gm DMI).
Conclusion: Dried I. aquatica waste was useful as an alternative lamb feed roughage during the dry season. The pelleted mixed ration was more efficient than mash in increasing DMI. The dried I. aquatica waste was environmentally friendly for mitigating enteric methane emissions by sheep.
Comparing the effects of Cyperus esculentus hydroethanolic extract and Euterpe oleracea on reproductive efficacy against cadmium-induced testicular toxicity in male rats
Authors: Khafaji Sura
Published: January 2024

Objective: Cadmium chloride (CdCl2) is an environmentally toxic pollutant that can cause reprotoxicity. Cyperus esculentus and Euterpe oleracea are potent antioxidant plants currently used to counteract the action of harmful pollutants. The present experiment was intended to evaluate and comp are the role of C. esculentus hydroethanolic extract (CHE) and E. oleracea in treating the reprotoxicity induced by CdCl2 in rats.
Materials and Methods: Forty adult male rats (160–210 gm) were allocated into five groups equally. Control group: received 5 ml of normal saline (NS); the other treatment groups were injected with CdCl2 as a single dose for two weeks to induce testicular toxicity. After 14 days, the four groups were treated orally daily for two months as follows: The cadmium group (Cd) received NS, the third group (TC) was administered 800 mg/kg BW of CHE, the fourth group (TO) received 500 mg/kg BW of E. oleracea, and the fifth group (TCO) received CHE with E. oleracea.
Results: The live sperm and motility, serum testosterone, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), testicular superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR), 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, and 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3β-HSD) were significantly increased in the TCO, TC, and TO groups compared with the Cd group. Testicular nitric oxide and malondialdehyde were elevated significantly in the Cd group compared to the TC, TO, TCO, and control groups. The fold changes of Fshβ, Lhβ, and Gnrh genes were upregulated in the TCO group compared to the Cd and control groups.
Conclusion: The combination of CHE with E. oleracea showed improvements in rat testicles affected by cadmium toxicity via upregulated reproductive gene expression and its antioxidant effects.

Authors: Yunilas Yunilas , Zain Mardiati , Tanuwiria Ujang , Syamsu Jasmal
Published: January 2024

Objective: Protein and carbohydrates are substances needed by ruminants, especially sheep. Providing protein and carbohydrates must pay attention to their degradation. In addition, balancing nutrients to meet the nutritional needs of rumen microbes is very important because the unbalanced availability of rumen degradable protein (RDP) and readily available carbohydrate (RAC) at one time can cause suboptimal microbial protein synthesis efficiency.
Materials and Methods: Completely randomized design with a nonfactorial pattern of five treatments with three replications. Treatment includes RDP and RAC ratios, namely R1 = 2.30, R2 = 2.00, R3 = 1.70, R4 = 1.50, and R5 = 1.30.
Results: The results showed that the balance of RDP and RAC in sheep ration formulation in vitro had a very significant effect (p < 0.01) on NH3, microbial protein synthesis, total gas, total microbes, and organic matter digestibility (OMD) but had no significant effect (p > 0.05) on rumen pH and dry matter digestibility (DMD).
Conclusion: The optimal balance of RDP and RAC in the formulation of sheep rations in vitro was obtained at a ratio of 2.30 with NH3 (mM) 8.47, rumen pH 5.97, microbial protein synthesis (mg/100 ml) 123, gas (ml/g of material) 145, total microbes (cells/ml) 2.012 × 106, (log CFU cells/ml) 6.3025, DMD 61.0%, and OMD 63.1%.

Authors: Moumin Imad
Published: January 2024

The proliferation of financial scandals worldwide has sparked a revolution in the way audit quality is conceived and assessed, highlighting the shortcomings of traditional approaches to the preparation and production of financial statements. Faced with this situation, the business and legal communities reacted by introducing new legislation on financial security. The new legislation shifts the focus of audit quality assessment towards an in-depth analysis of the audit process. Collective action has been taken by entrusting this task to the audit committee, which embodies the relational pivot within the control process, interacting in a concerted manner with both the internal and external audit functions. The aim of this article is to quantify the importance of setting up an effective audit committee within a company, by demonstrating the preponderance of its role as a central body in enriching and carrying out the audit mission, as part of an overall audit process.
Learning Science Through Writing: The Role of Rhetorical Structures
Authors: Klein Perry D.
Published: January 2024

In a 2 X 2 between-groups study, 85 preservice education students observed a science experiment concerning either buoyancy or the forces acting on a stationary object. Each student then wrote an initial explanation of the phenomenon followed by a journal-style note, then a final explanation. For each science experiment half the students received a list of strategy prompts intended to facilitate learning through writing, and half wrote without these prompts. Forty-three percent of the "buoyancy" students and 14% of the "forces" students increased the complexity of their explanations during the writing interval. Strategy prompting did not increase explanatory gains. Textual analysis showed that for the buoyancy problem, writing comparisons among trials and explanations of individual trials correlated with explanatory gains during the writing interval. For the forces problem, writing a concluding summary correlated negatively with explanatory gains. Qualitative analysis suggested that rhetorical structures (explanation, comparison, argumentation, and summarization) contributed to learning during three phases of building explanations: reviewing experimental trials, analyzing these trials to identify causal variables, and generalizing these analyses to form new explanations. These rhetorical structures stimulated, rather than structured, the construction of new knowledge and mapped onto the logical operations through which writers coordinated hypotheses and experimental trials in a many-to-many, rather than a one-to-one, fashion.

The Role of urinary kidney injury molecule 1 (KIM-1) in monitoring the treatment response in Egyptian Lupus Nephritis Patients
Authors:   Department of Internal Medicine, Nephrology Unit, Faculty of Medicine, Ain Shams University, Cairo 11566, Egypt., Rashwan Hossam
Published: January 2024

Lupus nephritis (LN) affects almost two-thirds of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. Despite initial aggressive therapy, up to 25% of patients with LN will progress to permanent renal damage. Conventional serum markers for LN lack the sensitivity of an ideal biomarker. Urinary kidney injury molecule-1 (UKIM-1) is an excellent biomarker for early diagnosis of acute kidney injury and predicting renal outcomes. This study intended to determine the predictive performance of UKIM-1 among LN patients in response to induction therapy by assessing and correlating its levels with renal disease activity. The study included 60 SLE patients divided into 20 SLE patients with active lupus nephritis, 20 SLE patients with inactive lupus nephritis, and 20 lupus patients without nephritis as controls. The study was completed after six months from induction treatment. UKIM-1 was measured by an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay at baseline, three-month follow-up and after complete induction therapy. At baseline, the mean serum creatinine and mean UKIM-1 were 1.7 ±0.7 mg/dL and 10.3 ±1.2 ng/dL, respectively in active LN patients. The mean UKIM-1 levels of complete response and partial response groups were 9.8 ±0.9 ng/mL and 11.3 ±1.0 ng/mL respectively. Based on receiver operating characteristics curve analysis, we found a better diagnostic performance of UKIM-1 to predict response to induction treatment, outperforming conventional biomarkers. The sensitivity and specificity were 84.6% and 85.7 %, respectively at an area under the curve of 0.896 and the best cut-off level was ≤10.6 ng/mL. In conclusion, UKIM-1 performed better than conventional biomarkers in predicting response to treatment of active LN.

Dialysis therapy has remarkably evolved through the innovation in dialyzers and hemodialysis modalities, enhancing patients’ quality of life. The efficacy of dialysis can be determined by measuring the reduction ratio (RR) of middle molecules such as Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and Procalcitonin. In our study, we tested a high-flux dialyzer, BIOPURE (Biorema) 260 HF, with a surface area (SA) of 2.6 m2, in terms of IL-6 and Procalcitonin removal while performing high-flux hemodialysis (HF-HD) and post-dilution online hemodiafiltration (OL-HDF). This crossover study comprised 25 patients who received a session of HF-HD using the BIOPURE (Biorema) 260 H, followed by a session of post-dilution OL-HDF. A washout period of 2 weeks was instilled between the two sessions, during which the patients received HF-HD using high-flux dialyzers (maximum SA 2.0 m2). All patients’ pre/post dialysis concentrations of IL-6 and procalcitonin were measured. The dialyzer used in this study resulted in a significant IL-6 RR of 44.92±5.11% (p<0.001) with HDF and 32.48±5.72% (p<0.001) with HF-HD; and a procalcitonin RR of 50.32±3.94% (p<0.001) with HDF and 41.80±4.32% (p<0.001) with HF-HD. In conclusion, the dialyzer BIOPURE (Biorema) 260 HF (SA 2.6 m2) is efficient in eliminating IL-6 and procalcitonin, especially with OL-HDF compared to HF-HD, with acceptable albumin loss in the dialysate.

Blockchain-driven dual-channel green supply chain game model considering government subsidies
Authors: Zhang Kejing , Xu Yanxin
Published: January 2024

In order to improve the performance of green supply chain and promote the adoption of blockchain, this paper establishes a dual-channel green supply chain consisting of a green manufacturer and a retailer, and builds Stackelberg game model considering different scenarios. We analyze the impact of blockchain operating costs and consumer uncertainty about the product greenness. Furthermore, we study the government subsidy for manufacturers' green costs and its impact on supply chain performance and blockchain adoption. Findings reveal that without blockchain technology, government subsidy can improve manufacturers' and retailers' profits. However, when blockchain is adopted, the subsidy effect depends on the blockchain operating costs. In case of higher blockchain operating cost, the product prices and greenness decrease as the green cost subsidies increase; In case of lower blockchain operating cost, the increase in green cost subsidies will lead to increased product prices and greenness; Green cost subsidies can raise profits and lower the blockchain adoption threshold.

Ruang publik adalah ruang tempat di mana kegiatan sosial dan kegiatan komunitas berlangsung. Pada ruang-ruang publik biasanya terjadi interaksi sosial. Perilaku orang dalam memanfaatkan ruang publik berbeda untuk tiap individu maupun tiap kelompok masyarakat. Pada kawasan permukiman di mana para wanita meluangkan waktu lebih banyak (terutama yang tidak bekerja) di sekitar lingkungan rumahnya, akan sangat banyak menggunakan ruang-ruang publik sebagai sarana sosialiasai dengan orang lain. Fokus kajian di sini adalah melihat ruang-ruang publik apa saja yang banyak digunakan oleh kaum wanita di sekitar lingkungan huniannya dan bagaimana mereka memanfaatkan ruang publik tersebut sebagai sarana untuk sosialisasi. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah penelitian campuran antara metode kualitatif studi kasus dengan metode kuantitatif penelitian lapangan. Hasil yang didapat dari penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa ruang publik yang banyak digunakan oleh para wanita di sekitar lingkungan permukimannya adalah jalan lingkungan, pasar, warung, lapangan olahraga, dan taman. Selain itu, ruang publik di kawasan permukiman yang paling banyak adalah digunakan untuk kegiatan pokok (necessary activities), seperti: berbelanja; pergi ke tempat kerja; dan pergi sekolah, serta kegiatan sosial (social activities), seperti: bertemu dan mengobrol dengan tetangga; dan bermain dengan anak. Dengan demikian, output dari penelitian ini dapat dijadikan sebagai dasar penelitian lanjut terhadap efektifitas ruang publik oleh para wanita.
Motorcycle Police Training and Service Vehicle Development in Hungary
Authors: Homonnai Peter
Published: January 2024

The history of the police motorcycle service is almost 100 years old, dating back to the Horthy era in the mid-1920s in Hungary. A turbulent history has interrupted his development several times, but he has remained continuous. Staffing levels peaked in the 1990s, and technology has developed rapidly, focused, and strongly since 2017. As a result, effective implementation of the service's mission system will depend on training development that can move at a pace with technical development and deliver systemic results in implementing missions. In this article, the author examined the use of police personnel authorised to drive specialised motorcycles, their main functions and the determination of the seasonal mileage. A questionnaire survey of motorcycle police officers enrolled in the Basic Motorcycle Training and License Renewal Training Programme of the Police Education and Training Centre in 2022. According to aggregated data, the average annual trip of the country's total of 218 service vehicles is 3,599 km. The main patrol category 104 (officer, patrol leader, patrol commander, team commander) is significantly better with 6589 km/year, while the secondary patrol category 114 (event scene and investigation, district officer, patrol commander, driver category) is 2266 km on average in 2022. The results of the survey highlight the low average driving of motorcycle police. This is mainly because more than 50 per cent of trained officers do not have the major task of carrying out their duties on a service motorcycle. However, due to the high quality of their execution, the training system must be restructured to make it more effective.
ПОСТСТРЕССОВЫЕ РЕАКЦИИ И РАССТРОЙСТВА У УЧАСТНИКОВ ВОЙНЫ В АРЦАХЕ / POST-STRESS REACTIONS AND DISORDERS AMONG THE PARTICIPANTS OF THE WAR IN ARTSAKH

Relevance: Psychological trauma and stress-related disorders represent the primary challenges in modern psychiatry, notably acute stress disorder (ASD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In the context of contemporary fifth-generation warfare, combat trauma assumes particular signifi-cance, evident in the nature of resulting mental disorders.
The aim: To examine the main forms of psychopathological disorders among 44-day Artsakh war participants.
Material, methods: A total of 104 war veterans aged 18-50 were examined using clinical-psychopathological, laboratory, instrumental, and psychological methods, including the SCL-90-R, Mississippi PTSD scale, and Shmishek Personality Scale.
Results: Among the participants, 77 individuals (74%) exhibited ASD, while 27 individuals (26%) displayed depressive and psychotic disorders, etc. Additionally, 39 participants (37.5%) showed signs of PTSD in its earliest stages of pathological development. The most prevalent personali-ty accentuation type observed was the exalted type (69 individuals, 66.3%). %). The statistical analy-sis unveiled significant differences in the expression of factors measured by the SCL-90-R, Mississippi-an, and Shmishek questionnaires. These differences were dependent on the combatants' age, type of military engagement, and the timing of hospital admission.
Discussion: All forms of psychopathological disorders stemmed from an unique combat trauma, which, in this case, is characterized by its "invisibility, inaccessibility of the source of trauma, its reali-ty, and tangibility." The boundaries between post-trauma clinical manifestations are amorphous, overlapping, and do not correspond to the chronological criteria outlined in the ICD and DSM. Combat trauma acts as a catalyst for all post-trauma disorders.
Conclusion: The atypical nature of trauma undermines the conventional criteria for PTSD and ASD. Chronological criteria fail to align with clinical realities, revealing challenges in distinguishing between ASD and PTSD. The findings suggest the existence of peritraumatic stress disorders, which encompass all post-trauma conditions.
