Authors: Карпачова Ольга
Published: February 2020

Складання і представлення аудитором додаткового звіту до аудиторського комітету є відносно новим поняттям та завданням для українських суб’єктів аудиторської діяльності. Однією з основних проблем оформлення додаткового звіту є те, що суб’єкти аудиторської діяльності в Україні були не готові до такого звіту. Тому не дивно, що в перший рік, коли Закон України від 21.12.2017 № 2258-VIII «Про аудит фінансової звітності та аудиторську діяльність» почав вимагати від аудиторів такий звіт, то більшість аудиторів складали його неправильно. Методологія оформлення звітів відповідно до Міжнародних стандартів аудиту та українського законодавства завжди є актуальним питанням для суб’єктіваудиторської діяльності. Розглянуто історію створення аудиторського комітету. Визначено актуальність складання додаткового звіту до аудиторського комітету. Проаналізовано вимоги до оформлення додаткового звіту відповідно до чинного законодавства України і Міжнародних стандартів аудиту. Проаналізовано помилки суб’єкта аудиторської діяльності при складанні додаткового звіту. Сформовано і запропоновано рекомендації щодо уникнення помилок при складанні додаткового звіту до аудиторського комітету.

Розглянуто функції та завдання управління в цілому і персоналу зокрема, визначено його цілі. Виявлено, що для того, щоб розвиватись, одержувати прибуток і зберегти конкурентоспроможність організації, керівництво повинно оптимізувати віддачу від вкладень будь-яких ресурсів: матеріальних, фінансових і головне — людських. Доведено, що коли організація дійсно турбується про людей, її загальна філософія, клімат і настрій обов’язково відбиваються на результатах. З’ясовано, що в Україні склалася ситуація, де управлінню персоналом не приділяється достатньо уваги, технологія розроблення і ухвалення кадрових рішень є недосконалою і науково необґрунтованою, у більшості випадків відсутня орієнтація на досягнення соціальної ефективності в управлінні персоналом. Висвітлено особливості управління персоналом як системи. Виявлено, що система управління персоналом передбачає формування цілей, функцій, організаційної структури управління персоналом, ухвалення й реалізації управлінських рішень.

Objective: Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) interventions increase psychological flexibility and improve mental health and quality of life in patients with myocardial infarction.
Study design: A controlled clinical trial study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of an ACT intervention in improving the quality of life in patients with MI in Isfahan, Iran.
Method: The present controlled clinical trial with a pre and post-test design was conducted on a statistical population consisting of patients with MI admitted to hospitals in Isfahan (n = 60) who were selected through sequential sampling based on the study inclusion criteria and were randomly divided into an intervention and a control group (n1 = n2 = 30). The case group received 8 weekly 90-minute sessions of ACT and the control group received no interventions. The pretest-posttest design was administered in both groups using a demographic questionnaire and the Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire (MLHFQ) designed to assess the health status of patients with heart failure in terms of quality of life. The data obtained were analyzed in SPSS-20 using descriptive statistics and the ANCOVA.
Results: In this study, 2 general areas of quality of life, including physical and mental health, were examined in the patients. There was a significant increase in the quality of life and subscales of mental and physical health in the experimental group (p < 0.001).
Conclusion: Considering the effectiveness of ACT in improving quality of life in these patients, this method of intervention can be used as a complementary therapy in health care centers to reduce the side-effects experienced by these patients.

Published: February 2020

Amaç: Deri prick testi (DPT) başlıca atopik dermatit (AD), kronik ürtiker (KÜ), alerjik astma (AA), ve alerjik rinit (AR) gibi hastalıkların tanı ve takibinde kullanılmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Dermatoloji Kliniği Alerji Ünitesi (DKAÜ)'nde yapılan DPT sonuçlarının geriye dönük olarak incelenerek, endikasyonları ve pozitiflik oranlarının araştırılmasıdır.Yöntem: DKAÜ arşivi kullanılarak 2014-2016 yıllarında yapılan DPT sonuçları incelenmiştir. DPT sonuçları, her hasta için ayrıca arşivlenen DPT formları okunarak yapılmıştır.Bulgular: DKAÜ'nde 2014-2016 yılları arasında 1916 hastaya DPT yapılmıştır. Bu hastaların 941'inde AA, 133'ünde AR, 842'sinde dermatolojik hastalık olduğu görülmüştür. En az bir ve birden fazla alerjen madde ile DPT pozitiflik oranı, sırasıyla AA, AR ve dermatolojik hastalıklarda; %92.1, %71.4 ve %50 olarak saptanmıştır. Dermatolojik hastalıklar incelendiğinde, 69 kronik ürtiker (KÜ), 55 atopik dermatit (AD) hastası haricinde, geriye kalan 718 hastada, başlıca dermatit, idiopatik generalize pruritus (İGP) olmak üzere farklı dermatolojik hastalıkların olduğu görülmüştür. DPT pozitifliği KÜ’de %55.1, AD’te %52.7 ve diğer dermatolojik hastalıklarda %48.6 olarak saptanmıştır.Sonuç: Bu çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre DPT pozitiflik oranı, AR ve AA hastalarında hem KÜ ve AD hem de diğer dermatolojik hastalıklara göre daha yüksektir. Bunun nedeni, KÜ ve AD etyopatogenezinde tip 1 aşırı duyarlılık reaksiyonlarının rolünün daha az olması ve/veya farklı dermatolojik tanılarla yönlendirilen hastalarda doğru olmayan DPT endikasyonları olabilir.

Published: February 2020

Objective: We aimed to determine the predictive
factors for psychiatric problem severity and/or clinical approval 10 years
after first assessment between ages 1-4 years.

Method: The children that were assessed with the
CBCL and the BITSEA in their 1-4 years of age were included. The follow-up
assessments were made by telephone interviews 10 years later by child
psychiatry residents. The primary caregivers responded the follow-up
questionnaire items, such as social/academic/behavioral functioning and
self-esteem and the items regarding the psychiatric approval, diagnosis, and
treatment history. 

Results: The CBCL-Internalizing scores in toddlerhood
were found to be significantly inversely correlated with social and behavioral
functioning level and self-esteem scores. The paternal and maternal
BITSEA-Competence scores were found to be positively correlated with social and
academic functioning. The CBCL Withdrawn/Depressed points at first evaulation
were determined to be statistically significantly predictive for psychiatric
diagnosis.

Conclusion: The study revealed that some measures
including CBCL and BITSEA completed in toddlerhood significantly indicate the
children under risk of psychiatric morbidity in adolescence. Therefore, we
conclude that the widespread use of this assessment measures in toddlers and
the referral of the group under risk to the psychiatry units for further
investigations could be useful preventive interventions.

Her yıl tüm dünyada yaklaşık 5 milyon insan, sigara içilmesinin neden olduğu hastalıklardan dolayı hayatını kaybetmektedir. Çalışmamızda amacımız ilköğretim okulu öğretmenlerinde sigara içme sıklığını ve etkileyen faktörleri belirlemektir.Yöntem: Kesitsel tipteki bu analitik çalışma 2160 ilköğretim okulu öğretmeninde gerçekleştirildi. Katılımcıların sosyodemografik özelliklerini ve sigara içme durumlarını sorgulayan bir anket formu kullanıldı. Bulgular: Çalışmaya katılan öğretmenlerin yaş ortalaması 40,5±8,2 yaş (21-65), %53,7’si (n=1160) erkek, %46,3’ü (n=1000) kadın, %89,7’si evli idi. Tüm katılımcıların sigara içme sıklığı %36,7 bulundu. İlk sigara içme yaşı ortalama 18,2±4,5 yıl, sigara içme süresi ortalama 18,5±8,5 yıl idi. Sigarayı bırakma sıklığı %28,8 bulundu. Sigara içme sıklığı erkeklerde kadınlardan daha yüksekti ( p<0.001). Erkeklerde sigara içme sıklığı kadın cinsiyete göre 2.589 kat daha fazladır [OR = 2.589, %95 CI:(1.625-4.125)] ve bu yükseklik istatistiksel olarak anlamlı idi. Öğretmenlerinin %72,2'si her yönden davranışları ile topluma ve öğrencilerine rol model olduklarını belirtmekte ve %94,1'i kapalı alanda sigara içme yasağını desteklemektedirler. Sigara içmeyenlerin %62,9'u, sigara içenlerin ise %19,8’i yasağın devam edip kapsamının genişletilmesini istemekteydi (p<0,001).Sonuç: Ülkemizde yaklaşık 17 milyon kişi hala tütün ve tütün ürünleri kullanıyor. Sigarayı bırakmak için sigara hakkında toplumun bilincini artırmak ve sigara içenleri cesaretlendirmek birçok hastalığı önlemek için etkili olacaktır. Ergenlik dönemindeki öğrencilere sigara ve zararları hakkında eğitim verilirken sıkı iletişim içinde oldukları anne, baba ve öğretmenlerinde sigara kullanmayarak örnek olmaları gerekmektedir.

The sharing economy and management of a sustainable environment in the tourism sector on a global scale
Authors: Genç Ruhet
Published: February 2020

The paper will discuss the impact of development of sharing economy on ecological sustainability for the tourism sector at global scale since the main focus in the literature is generally limited to economic and social impacts. It will provide a mathematical model in order to measure the impact of the sharing economy on the welfare of individuals who take part in particular tourism destinations as well as providing benefits for other individuals as a positive external outlook. The development of the model will be dependent on the findings obtained in this study. The results will show that the sharing economy together with collaborative consumption in the tourism sector is an increasing trend in global economy that contributes to ecological sustainability as well. By sharing the means of production, transportation, communication etc both tourists and service providers are capable of decreasing their ecological footprints. In conclusion the paper will contribute to the literature by filling a gap with respect to the lack of connection between environmental sustainability and sharing economy in tourism sector.
The implementation of “The St. Gallen Model for Destination Management (SGDM)” in the Polish Carpathians: A case study of six Bieszczady communes
Authors: Klimek Katarzyna
Published: February 2020

The Bieszczady mountains are one of the ranges of the Polish Carpathians. Their natural and cultural amenities attract thousands of Polish and international tourists each year. Despite many protected zones existing in this area (e.g. Bieszczadzki National Park, UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and Nature 2000 areas), the Bieszczady mountains face various environmental and social problems which have arisen from their dynamic but often chaotic tourism development. The lack of a common vision of long-term tourism development (on communal and regional levels) is one of the main challenging issues which public and private bodies are confronted with. The paper presents the results of the implementation of an innovative approach, i.e. the St. Gallen Model for Destination Management (SGDM), in selected Bieszczady communes. This method offers a clear advantage for key destination actors by allowing them to enter a process of holistic destination management. The article is the first attempt at SGDM application in Poland.

W przestrzeni pielgrzymkowej Polski obserwuje się rosnące zainteresowanie „wakacjami” i urlopami w klasztorach, pustelniach oraz domach rekolekcyjnych, a także stały wzrost weekendowej turystyki religijnej. Turystów religijnych oraz pielgrzymów przyciągają do sanktuariów – oprócz stałych nabożeństw i uroczystości religijnych – organizowane w nich obrzędy, misteria, odpusty i święta religijne.

Wstęp

Badania wskazują, że wzrost raka endometrium ma związek z aktywnością genów estrogenozależnych, których działanie jest uwarunkowane obecnością receptorów estrogenowych (ER). Analiza aktywności transkrypcyjnej genów kodujących ERs oraz profilu stężeń ich izoform mogłaby pomóc w zrozumieniu mechanizmów wpływu estrogenów na ryzyko wystąpienia raka endometrium, a także mechanizmów zaangażowanych w jego rozwój i rozprzestrzenianie. Celem prowadzonych badań było porównanie aktywności transkrypcyjnej genów kodujących receptory estrogenowe ER-alfa i ER-beta, wyznaczenie typów modyfikacji potranskrypcyjnych mRNA ERs w gruczolakoraku endometrium i endometrium prawidłowym oraz wyznaczenie transkryptomu estrogenozależnych genów cytochromu P450.

Materiał i metody

Ekstrakcję całkowitego RNA z 47 próbek endometrium przeprowadzono przy użyciu odczynnika TRIzol (Invitrogen). Techniką mikromacierzy oligonukleotydowych HG-U133A (Affymetrix) spośród 22 283 ID mRNA wyznaczono profil ekspresji estrogenozależnych genów cytochromu P450. Reakcję QRT-PCR w celu oznaczenia ilościowego mRNA receptorów estrogenowych wykonano z zastosowaniem detektora sekwencji ABI PRISMTM 7700 (TaqMan). Do reakcji QRT-PCR zaprojektowano sekwencje oligonukleotydowych starterów do detekcji izoform mRNA ER-alfa i ER-beta, wykorzystując program komputerowy Primer ExpressTM Version 1.0.

Wyniki

W przedstawionej pracy stwierdzono, że ekspresja genów receptorów estrogenowych występuje w endometrium prawidłowym oraz gruczolakoraku endometrium, a dominującym typem jest ER-alfa. Aktywność transkrypcyjna genów ER-alfa i ER-beta zmniejsza się w gruczolakoraku, przy równoczesnym wzroście wskaźnika aktywności transkrypcyjnej. W raku endometrium dominuje izoforma ER-alfa/delta5. Analiza statystyczna przeprowadzona w programie GeneSpring 11.5 wykazała, że z grupy 91 ID mRNA genów cytochromu P450 różnicujących jest 5 ID mRNA, dla p < 0,5 i FC(log2) > 1,5.

Wnioski

Obecność takiego profilu transkrypcyjnego badanych genów w gruczolakoraku endometrium może wskazywać na związek modyfikacji potranskrypcyjnych receptorów estrogenowych ze zmianami uruchamiającymi karcinogenezę.
Hacia una clasificación de grano fino de los verbos de movimiento. El caso de los verbos intransitivos del español

Based on the lexicalization patterns presented in Talmy’s pioneering work (1985), motion verbs classifications for Spanish mainly recognize two groups: verbs of manner and verbs of direction (Lamiroy, 1991; Cifuentes Honrubia, 1988-1989; Crego García, 2000; Morimoto, 2001, among others). This research offers a much more detailed classification, by means of the use of a finer set of features and semantic participants that may be lexicalized by motion verbs in any language of the world, namely: the aspectual features of punctuality and telicity; the participants theme, source, path, goal, point of reference, location-path and trajectory; and the parametric features of displacement, movement, manner, change of place and direction. The result is a classification of eight different verb groups that account for the lexical and syntactic mechanisms present in the encoding of the Spanish motion events.

Aim: Leaf removal around clusters and cluster thinning are techniques usually applied in cool-climate vineyards in order to achieve optimal grape maturity. However, the impact of the timing of these two operations differs across varieties. Thus, the aim of the present work was to investigate the effects of cluster thinning and leaf removal timing (performed at three specific time points) on grape quality and monomeric anthocyanins in the wines of Cabernet-Sauvignon and Probus (Kadarka × Cabernet-Sauvignon, Vitis vinifera L.)Methods and results: The experiment was conducted in Sremski Karlovci (Northern Serbia) in 2014, 2015, and 2016. Leaf removal was applied on six basal nodes of each shoot at three time points, 7 days after flowering, 30 days after flowering, and at veraison, i.e., at the onset of berry ripening. After cluster thinning, which was performed 7 days after flowering, one cluster per shoot was retained. On the treated vines, leaf removal treatment and cluster thinning were applied only once. Leaf removal was more effective than cluster thinning in respect to grape quality. Leaf removal, applied 7 and 30 days after flowering, decreased titratable acidity in Cabernet-Sauvignon, while in Probus an interaction of leaf removal and year was observed. Moreover, early leaf removal decreased the incidence of Botrytis sp. in Probus. The varieties reacted differently to cluster thinning in respect to grape quality: cluster thinning increased total soluble solids in Probus and lowered titratable acidity in Cabernet-Sauvignon. In 2015, both cluster thinning and leaf removal yielded changes in the anthocyanin ratios in the wines. Cluster thinning increased total and acylated anthocyanins in the wine of Cabernet-Sauvignon compared to wine derived from unthinned vines. The peonidin content was 40 % higher in the Cabernet-Sauvignon wine if the vines were subjected to leaf removal treatments.Conclusions: Cluster thinning and leaf removal affected both Cabernet-Sauvignon and Probus (Vitis vinifera L.) grape quality and wine composition. Early leaf removal was the most effective treatment in both varieties. Therefore, combined application of cluster thinning and early leaf removal is highly recommended in the production of high-quality red wines in Serbia.Significance and impact of the study: Timing of leaf removal application was usually investigated around flowering and veraison. Our results suggested that leaf removal between these two phenological stages also improves grape quality and changes the ratio of the monomeric anthocyanins in the wine.
Experimental Study of the Bending Strength of Recycled Concrete and Wooden Waste by Heating Compaction
Authors: Li Liang , Sakai Yuya
Published: February 2020

A large amount of concrete waste is generated around the world and its recycling is an urgent issue. In this research, a new approach to recycle concrete waste with wooden waste was studied. Concrete and wooden wastes were crushed, mixed, and heat compacted to produce plates with different water contents and mix proportions at various temperatures, pressures, and durations of compaction. The bending strength of the plates was measured after compaction. The result indicated that with an increase in the percentage of wooden waste in the mixture, pressure, or temperature improved the bending strength. The increase in water content reduced the bending strength. Most of the products exhibited higher bending strength than that of ordinary concrete.

Authors: Chambers Robert D. , Yoder Nathanael C.
Published: February 2020

We present and benchmark FilterNet, a flexible deep learning architecture for time series classification tasks, such as activity recognition via multichannel sensor data. It adapts popular CNN and CNN-LSTM motifs which have excelled in activity recognition benchmarks, implementing them in a many-to-many architecture to markedly improve frame-by-frame accuracy, event segmentation accuracy, model size, and computational efficiency. We propose several model variants, evaluate them alongside other published models using the Opportunity benchmark dataset, demonstrate the effect of model ensembling and of altering key parameters, and quantify the quality of the models’ segmentation of discrete events. We also offer recommendations for use and suggest potential model extensions. FilterNet advances the state of the art in all measured accuracy and speed metrics on the benchmarked dataset, and it can be extensively customized for other applications.

Early detection of cancer increases the probability of recovery. This paper presents an intelligent decision support system (IDSS) for the early diagnosis of cancer based on gene expression profiles collected using DNA microarrays. Such datasets pose a challenge because of the small number of samples (no more than a few hundred) relative to the large number of genes (on the order of thousands). Therefore, a method of reducing the number of features (genes) that are not relevant to the disease of interest is necessary to avoid overfitting. The proposed methodology uses the information gain (IG) to select the most important features from the input patterns. Then, the selected features (genes) are reduced by applying the grey wolf optimization (GWO) algorithm. Finally, the methodology employs a support vector machine (SVM) classifier for cancer type classification. The proposed methodology was applied to two datasets (Breast and Colon) and was evaluated based on its classification accuracy, which is the most important performance measure in disease diagnosis. The experimental results indicate that the proposed methodology is able to enhance the stability of the classification accuracy as well as the feature selection

Behavior of supported alloyed and de-alloyed platinum-copper catalysts, which contained 14% - 27% wt. of Pt, was studied in the reactions of methanol electrooxidation (MOR) and oxygen electroreduction (ORR) in 0.1 M HClO4 solutions. Alloyed PtCux/C catalysts were prepared by a multistage sequential deposition of copper and platinum onto a Vulcan XC72 dispersed carbon support. De-alloyed PtCux-y/C catalysts were prepared by PtCux/C materials pretreatment in acid solutions. The effects of the catalysts initial composition and the acid treatment condition on their composition, structure, and catalytic activity in MOR and ORR were studied. Functional characteristics of platinum-copper catalysts were compared with those of commercial Pt/C catalysts when tested, both in an electrochemical cell and in H2/Air membrane-electrode assembly (MEA). It was shown that the acid pretreatment of platinum-copper catalysts practically does not have negative effect on their catalytic activity, but it reduces the amount of copper passing into the solution during the subsequent electrochemical study. The activity of platinum-copper catalysts in the MOR and the current-voltage characteristics of the H2/Air PEMFC MEAs measured in the process of their life tests were much higher than those of the Pt/C catalysts.

Authors: Mahboob Muhammad Hassan
Published: February 2020

Tourists’ interest traveling to Lahore (Badshahi mosque & Royal fort) have been increased after worst terrorism situation in Pakistan and expected to continue. Despite this fact, very little facts are known about individual's attitude towards cultural heritage. This study makes a tour on factors which encouraged tourists to visit cultural heritage sites (pre-post visit) and also identify variables that help to estimate their willingness to pay (WTP) for cultural heritage sites. Data of 200 tourists were collected through well pre paired questionnaire and this data were used in the final analysis. The most useful technique contingent valuation method (CVM) with dichotomous choice question was used to estimate the WTP. Two models were used in the estimation of WTP binary regression and ordinary least square (OLS). The findings acknowledged that tourists were interested to get good memories, experience and knowledge through this visit; more than 75% tourists were WTP for cultural heritage due to their positive attitude and would prefer to visit again these destinations. Tourist’s income was positive and significant determinant factor of WTP, total cost and environmental concern were negatively related with WTP. Findings of this study recommended practical implications for authorities.

The emergence of novel coronavirus strain 2019 (COVID-19) linked with pneumonia poses a serious threat to public health worldwide. Firstly, the COVID-19 was reported in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China in December 2019. Initially, the major proportion of virus-infected cases (i.e. about 99%) was reported in China and now it is being reported in other counties as well. Humans begin to be infected within their communities and transmittance of the viral epidemic increased rapidly due to lack of understanding of its transmission routes and precautionary measures. The existence of COVID-19 in China threatened the population greatly due to the high incidence of fatal respiratory infections. Current investigations speculated that this virus transferred into a human from viral-infected bats. However, the process of interspecies viral transmission is an important scientific question to be addressed. Due to the continuous increase in the patients infected with COVID-19, the World Health Organization (WHO) has included this viral epidemic to the priority list of diseases. Therefore, accelerated research developments are required to control the spread of this outbreak, as it is declared as a public health emergency by WHO especially in the absence of efficacious drugs and vaccines. Our review encompasses the recent status of disease severity in China, a particular replication mechanism of COVID-19 and potential risks and precautionary measures required to avoid contact with this fatal viral infection.
