In a highly competitive global environment, entrepreneurship, and innovative entrepreneurs are key methods for businesses to ensure success and establish a competitive advantage in the national and global marketplace. To this effect, this study seeks to critically review ‘entrepreneurship and entrepreneur’. In order to gain a better understanding of these phenomena, a single research question was posed for this study:- Are there any justifications for the UK government not leveraging on entrepreneurship pedagogy for the development of employability for life? To ensure that organizations have the right skills to support and sustain their hard-earned success, and people have a relevant set of skills they need to be both employable and individually fulfilled. Since the global economy has made largely extinct the idea of a ‘job for life’. The new norm is ‘employability for life’. In this review, the discussion on employability for life would be an assessment of the abilities and attributes that can help individuals create a rewarding business in the modern marketplace. These are the skills that today's entrepreneurs should possess. The review concludes that the increase we are noticing in human capital development during, and post-global pandemic is a deliberate government effort through SME-friendly policies that allow for entrepreneurial activities, supported by business loans for small and minimum-size businesses across the country, ensuing in the establishment of new enterprises. These targeted policies have made provisions for individuals to engage in acts that would allow for human capital development and economic prosperity

This study seeks to investigate the link between ‘innovative entrepreneurship and economic development’; with a bid to leverage the experience of entrepreneurs in the UK. In order to better understand these phenomena, a single research question was posed: Is there a correlation between entrepreneurship and industrialized nations’ economic development? The research question would be examined using qualitative in-depth interviews with entrepreneurs. It is established that there are common links between entrepreneurial and economic development in general. Entrepreneurs argue that business forces, economic development, employment generation, industrial invention, and business process are central desires of economies. Entrepreneurship has become the backbone of economic development in industrialized economies. Economic development and growth achieved in developed countries are due to the role of entrepreneurship in the formation of businesses which have transformed these economies from managed to entrepreneurial economies. Entrepreneurship has been used in several economies of the world and has proved to be important in creating a strong economy. The partnership would allow for more income generation, especially in taxation, which would influence the provision of basic social amenities, mobilization of investments and savings, and the spreading of industries, as well as encourage foreign earnings.
Critical Periods in the Neurodevelopment of Autism
Authors: Ayoub George , Lam Dominic M.K.
Published: July 2023

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a developmental disability that can create significant behavioral and communication challenges. The prevalence of ASD among children at 8 years of age is over 2%, and the prevalence is similar across ethnic groups and countries. Studies have shown that the majority of ASD children make an autoantibody to the high-affinity folate receptor in response to a dietary component. This Folate Receptor Antibody (FRA) blocks transport of folate across the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB), resulting in a Cerebral Folate Deficiency (CFD). Parents of autistic children also have FRA at substantially higher rates than the general public, which may play a critical role during neurodevelopmental critical periods in the fetus. In clinical trials, ASD children with the FRA had improvement in their communication when placed on a daily supplement of folate in its reduced form, which can enter the brain via a low-affinity transport. We reason that supplementing folate earlier in development, including in utero development, may be most effective in reducing the severity of ASD symptoms by facilitating typical passage through critical neurodevelopmental periods.

Published: July 2023

Quality has been mentioned as the missing ingredient in TB care and control. In Togo, TB is a priority public health problem. We hypothesize that "quality mindset" is the missing ingredient for excellence in TB care and control in Togo. We used statistical process control (SPC) tools to analyze cohort data from the National Tuberculosis Control Program. There was an unstable quarterly variation in smear-positive pulmonary TB (TBP+) treatment success rate from 2017 to 2022. The general trend since the first instability was a quarterly variation around a success rate of 86%. Results showed stability in the quarterly variation of TBP+ case fatality rate at 7% since 2017. The root cause analysis of the low performance of the program revealed that TB management and DOTS strategy standards were not well adhered to. Based on the Pareto chart prioritizing the most affected health systems building blocks, health services delivery and health workforce building blocks accounted for 70% of all the dysfunctions. This study revealed that quality mindset is the missing ingredient for TB control program to be a center of excellence in Togo. It is therefore timely for a national project to verify the real contribution of total quality care to TB program performance in Togo.
A Structural Equation Model on the Organizational Research Culture of College Instructors in Davao Region
Authors: Booc Neil Bryan B.
Published: July 2023

This study aimed to establish the best-fit model of organizational research culture as influenced by attitudes, capabilities, and self-efficacy toward academic research of college instructors in Davao Region. The research design used in the study was descriptive-causal design through structural equation modeling. Using a simple random sampling method, a survey questionnaire was administered to the 380 college instructors in selected private and public schools in Region XI. Findings show high attitudes, capabilities, self-efficacy, and organizational research culture. Also, there is a significant relationship and influence in attitudes, capabilities, and self-efficacy towards academic research of college instructors on organizational research culture. There was a direct causal effect of attitudes and capabilities in academic research of college instructors on organizational research culture. Moreover, the model illustrates the total indirect or mediated effect of Capabilities on organizational research culture. This, in turn, has the potential to influence the overall culture of the institution. The capability-mediated effect can impact the research culture by facilitating individuals' participation in research-related tasks and promoting a research-focused atmosphere. It is recommended to intensify and strengthen the existing policies about research in any academic institution.
Sports celebrities and their impact on consumer attitudes
Authors: Baltezarević Radoslav , Papakonstantinidis Stavros
Published: July 2023

Sports celebrities are often considered heroes both locally and internationally. The behavior of these athletes on the field, where they excel as leaders of their teams, along with healthy values in their private lives, often enriched by philanthropic activities, do not escape the attention of sports marketing experts. With a sports personality whose image is consistent with the company's brand, a mutually beneficial partnership may be established. Athletes can earn substantial additional profits, while companies can enhance their brand image and gain a competitive advantage. Today, the digital environment has made this marketing strategy even more effective, since famous sports figures are better able to directly and effectively influence the attitudes of sports consumers (their fans). The problem arises, however, when sports celebrities damage their own reputation with inappropriate behavior. Sports celebrities can also damage the reputation of their sports clubs, as well as the reputation of the brands they endorse and/or promote. This situation is especially problematic for brands when negative electronic word-of-mouth communication (eWOM) causes incalculable damage to the company's reputation.

Writing-up Classroom-based Action Researches: The INNOTeach Way
Authors: Cabanlit Emmie M.
Published: July 2023

INNOTeach is a joint extension project between the University of Southeastern Philippines and the Department of Education-Davao City. This paper aimed to disclose the INNOTeach way of writing-up classroom-based action researches by the teachers. It discussed the progress and highlights of the project while revealing the behavioral impressions of the teacher participants. It is anchored on Kurt Lewin’s theory emphasizing that action researches are made to solve social problems. Narrative-qualitative research was employed in this paper. Remarkably, the INNOTEach way of writing-up an action research is simply a reflective writing exercise using customized worksheets and templates. This revealed further that the series of trainings produced organics trainers and research proposals approved by the office of the Schools Division Superintendent of Davao City. One implemented research became an entry of DepEd-Region XI to the national paper contest; while the project itself has already been given awards in conferences. Finally, this paper revealed that the INNOTeach way of doing action research enabled the teachers to become reflective of their work, being passionate for research, and not anymore intimidated seeing children with problems. This leads to the conclusion that no matter how difficult a thing is, when it is done reflectively, it can produce new things. To adopt the INNOTeach way of doing things is highly recommended at all levels of education.
Cost-Benefit Analysis of Citrus Production in the Eastern Region of Ghana: The Case of Okumaning and Nkwantanang in the Kwaebibirem District
Authors: Opoku Joyce Abrafi , Asare Seth Nyarko
Published: July 2023

Citrus farming has not been as popular as cocoa and other traditional crops in Ghana. The University of Ghana Agricultural Research Station (UGARS) at Okumaning undertook a research into how citrus could be produced throughout the year and make the tree last longer. Why farmers cultivate citrus on small-scale basis and the impact of the results of the UGARS’ research findings on the citrus industry in Ghana is the basis for this study.
Using a mixed method, the results revealed that the citrus industry has a very bright future since for every GH?1.00 invested, a return of GH?2.78 is obtained. Land acquisition in the study area is the challenge, coupled with the lack of credit. Farmers are unable to meet the collateral requirements of the banks and delay in loan approval also puts them off. As a result, the Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA-Ghana) and the University of Ghana, Legon signed an agreement to intercrop citrus with food crops on the farm of low-income earning farmers. The adoption of the ADRA-University of Ghana’s proposal by both part-time and full-time farmers in Ghana is a manifestation of the great impact the research findings of the UGARS, has on the country.
Based on the results of the study, it is recommended that citrus processing plant(s) be established to take care of the excess fruits that will arise as a result of the local supply outweighing local demand while alternative markets are sought outside the country. Also, the rigid procedure for loan application and approval, especially to farmers, should be reviewed to incorporate a little flexibility to help the farmers acquire credit to improve, expand and make their operations easier.

Semanticity of Akan Proverbs Promoting Unity and Development
Authors: Bonsu Robert , Quaicoe Mary Kate
Published: July 2023

This paper examined the semantic principles of the Akan proverbs that are meant to be applicable to all regardless of nationality, heritage, or social standing. Akan proverbs are more than wise sayings. They have a wide range of uses and show, principally, that the user is wise and well-educated in the customs of the Akan people. The ability to use language enriched by proverbs is considered sage and is the hallmark of great public speaking. The design of the study was qualitative and the instruments used for the data collection were interview and direct observation. The investigation was conducted with thirty (30) native speakers in Goaso Municipality. Purposive sample was used to elicit significant information for the analysis. Ethnography of communication theory underpinned the study. In the Ghanaian Akan traditional set up, proverbs are used to express emotions, convey ideas, and provide inspiring, celebratory, and advisory messages. The analysis revealed that proverbs, as linguistic, cultural and spiritual knowledge, are deeply embedded in Ghanaian life and may function as excellent culturally relevant tools for a localized approach to Ghana and for that matter African development. The results again demonstrated that, some Akan proverbs really promote unity and development as well as norms that regulate the individual activities.

Much has been done about Akan proverbs in the areas of emotion regulation, situation selection, child upbringing, anger and sadness, caution, peace, etc., all in the domain of pragmatics. However not much has been done about Akan proverbs in terms of semanticity towards promotion of unity and development. According to contemporary youth it is pointless associating proverbs with development and unity. However, aged embraced the concept as one of the fundamental tools that ensures the development of every community. Because of these two ideologies the researchers have decided to bridge the gap. Proverbs provide one snapshot into contemporary Ghanaian society. This investigation will support the existing literature on proverbs. The paper will decondition mindset of youth which will consequently lead to appreciation of proverbs in Akan setting.

Published: July 2023

Depression in older adults can lead to a decrease in quality of life and an increase in mortality risk. This will have an impact on the daily activities of the elderly and their families as caregivers. The aim of this study was to determine the depression profile in older adults with risk of dementia in the Greater Jakarta. Descriptive study was used in the study. The population of the study were all older adults who lived with their families in the Greater Jakarta, with a total of 354 respondents as the sample were selected through multistage random sampling. The instrument used was a modified 15-item Geriatric Depression Scale and the Clock Drawing Test. The majority of the elderly had a risk of dementia (92.1%). Older adults who suffered from depression accounted for 4.5%, and there was likely a depressive disorder in 18.9% of respondents. The question regarding whether older adults had many problems with memory (forgetfulness) compared to most people was answered positively by 42.1% of respondents. The question regarding whether older adults preferred to stay at home rather than go out and do something new was answered positively by 61% of respondents. Memory problems and lack of social interaction experienced by older adults with depression will have an impact on their quality of life. It is hoped that families can continue to improve and maintain the quality of life of the elderly to keep them active and productive in an effort to prevent dementia.

Neurological Deficit Methodical Approaches to Experimental Study
Authors: Maksimovich N. Ye , Lizaveta I. Bon , Vishnevskaya B.L.I , Maroz K.V
Published: July 2023

Freasibility of studying pathology of the brain in the experiment leeds to the need for adequate ways to assess the neurological deficit that occurs in animals, including sensorimotor and behavioral disorders, as well as disorders of higher nervous activity (memory, gnosis, praxis, emotional behavior, etc.). The rat is one of the adequate objects of experimental research to study brain disorders in various pathologies. The review summarizes the literature data on possible ways to evaluate sensory-motor reflexes, learning ability and memory in experimental animals at different ages. In the early postnatal period, reflexes are evaluated: "flipping on the plane", "negative geotaxis", "avoidance of breakage", "acoustic stimulus response", "olfactory reaction" and "muscle strength". To study the degree of neurological and behavioral disorders in adult animals, a number of methods can be used: the Bederson test, the test for evaluating modified indicators of the depth of neurological deficit, the Garcia test, the angular test, the paw pulling test, the "open field" test.
The Healthiest Weight: Present and Future
Authors: Alvarez José M Peregrin
Published: July 2023

Successful weight loss and maintenance programs should consider the optimal timing for the brain's control of body weight. The bases for successful Weight Management Programs have been recently proposed utilizing a new BMI sub-categorization and current state-of-the-art technologies. An inverse relationship between meal frequency and body weight has also been observed and is directly related to achieving a healthy weight. Practising regular exercise has also been shown to cause a significant reduction in Heart Rate while achieving and maintaining the Healthiest Weight as well as increasing life expectancy. Thus, the implementation of healthy habits and regular aerobic exercise programs by public authorities may contribute to the reduction in all-cause mortality worldwide. Adapting WHO-defined BMI thresholds to novel calibrated thresholds has been further revalidated by incorporating recently published multi-dimensional data from large- scale worldwide studies, resulting in a new likelihood model of the health risks associated with adiposity. This latest study has great potential in personalized and preventive medicine. In addition to ongoing vaccination programs, the results of this novel approach could be used as an “alternative method of prevention” to naturally tackle the current COVID-19 pandemic, and other anticipated in the future to come. Other current and future weight management developments are also discussed.

Objective: We report two incidental cases of bladder paraganglioma and a review of the literature published to date. Methods: Medline was searched for the last 10 years for the terms "paraganglioma" and "urinary" and "bladder". Results: Bladder paraganglioma (BP) is extremely rare. It represents 10% of all paragangliomas and concerns less than 0.06% of bladder tumors. Often discovered by chance, it can nevertheless be symptomatic, particularly during micturition. The most common symptoms are hematuria, hypertension and headache. About 14% of these tumors are malignant and radio-chemically resistant. Surgery is therefore the cornerstone of treatment. We recommend, cystoscopy, partial cystectomy and regular follow-up based on regular cystoscopy and imaging. Their rarity explains why, at present, there are no recommendations for treatment and monitoring. However, their risk of malignancy recurrence and metastasis requires regular and long-term follow-up. Conclusions: Bladder paragangliomas are rare tumors. Treatment should be based on partial cystectomy and their follow-up should be regular.

Authors: Juan Alberto Berrios Mejia , Felipe de Jesus Contreras Rodriguez , Juan Gerardo Alcaraz Lopez , Oscar Joseph Camacho Alamo
Published: July 2023

Extraosseous Ewing sarcoma is a malignant mesenchymal tumor. It can arise from any location; however, it generally appears in the paravertebral regions or in soft tissues of the extremities. It generally follows a rapid course and has high rates of recurrence. Pretreatment evaluation of the extension of disease is paramount since this is the most important factor in the outcome. Treatment consists of local surgery and neoadjuvant chemotherapy with some cases requiring radiotherapy. We describe the biggest tumor of EES primary to the lung parenchyma, with extensive tumor infiltration and the unique feature of airway obstruction. The tumor was successfully resected, and the patient treated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Extraosseous Ewing sarcoma of the lung is an extremely rare disease with less than 40 cases described in the literature.

Munculnya “Cimahi Mall”, awalnya karena tumbuhnya kebutuhan masyarakat ekonomi kelas menengah dan bawah di Kota Cimahi terhadap baju-baju Fashion yang semakin trendi dan beragam, namun dengan harga yang terjangkau (murah).  Sewa toko yang relative murah menyebabkan mayoritas toko di mal ini masuk dalam kategori Usaha Mikro, dengan rata-rata omset sekitar Rp 30 juta sebulan. Namun, maraknya bisnis toko online menyebabkan sebagian besar toko tenan ini mengalami penurunan omset penjualan yang cukup serius. Tim PKM POLBAN kemudian mencari solusi dengan mengadakan pelatihan dan kegiatan Pendampingan untuk meningkatkan Kasadaran (Awareness) para pelaku bisnis skala UMKM ini tentang pentingnya “Digital Business” dan memasarkan produk mereka. Dan kemudian mengajari ketrampilan penggunaan Facebook dan Instagram untuk promosi secara online, agar penjualan mereka kembali normal. Hasil dari Pelatihan dua kali ini, menunjukkan adanya peningkatan penjualan, yaitu sebesar 28% saat mulai menggunakan Facebook Ads.Terjadi juga peningkatan yang cukup signifikan setelah menggunakan fitur “Instagram for Business”. Namun, peningkatan penjualan ini tidak merata. Ada “gap” yang cukup besar di setiap tenan toko yang mengikuti Pelatihan. Salah satu faktor penyebab adalah, adanya perbedaan generasi dalan motivasi didalam memanfaatkan HP dan Sosesial Media. Peserta yang berusia di bawah 30 tahun (Generasi Milenial) cenderung lebih aktif dan berani dalam memanfaatkan HP mereka untuk melakukan promosi produk secara online. Tidak terbebani secara psikologis terhadap IT Literacy dan gaya komunikasi spontan konsumen internet. Sebaliknya, peserta yang berusia diatas 40 tahun, terlihat gamang dan ragu-ragu dalam memulai kegiatan promosi menggunakan Sosial Media.

The clay mineralogy of soils and of the main calcareous sedimentary soils of middle of Iraq were investigated to determine the presence of different clay minerals and their distribution pattern in soils. Six pedons were chosen and total of 24 soil horizons were collected. The results revealed that the soil minerals were primary and others were secondary minerals. Generally, the results of the semi-quantitative distribution of the clay minerals in clay fractions showed the dominance of the montmorillonite minerals and illite alternate with chlorite in being main and kaolinite are major, while, the presence of palygorskite mineral were trace except P5 may be miner (saline soils). The origin of the montmorillonite minerals in these soil may be inherited in origin from the mica. Soil chlorite was found in some soils due to chloritization of expanding clay minerals. The mineralogical distribution in bulk soils were dominated by calcite, and quartz, while other minerals were identified feldspar, hematite and pyroxene in addition to the clay minerals in all the soil samples.
