Analysing social media with an Improved K-Means Clustering Algorithm
Authors: Sujeet Kumar Sahani  , Dr. Sonam Singh
Published: July 2024

Nowadays, sharing human social behavior and growing a multi-user network requires the use of social media. Analysis of social media provides a valuable opportunity to study human social activity at scale. People often bring and talk about different kind of topics on social media platforms. depending on which, discussions are made to show the positive as well dis positives ways. This is an interesting point about using social media. There is a great deal of information about the type and substance of these discussion holography’s that informs us more broadly around patterns in social media interactions, and how content flows between individuals. Data mining techniques exists which can be utilized to crunch out user information from social media and relationships existing within the network. However, state of the art methods often fail to model user communities and their behaviors at a correct level. To solve this problem and help successfully do the grouping of related information, in our work here we present an enhanced fuzzy means clustering approach. Using this technique reduces the creation and time complexity of clusters, resulting in higher quality group outcomes. Our proposed system aims at mitigating the problems as described above by introducing a scalable and effective solution for real-time cluster social media data.
Reverse culture shock among Saudi students returning from the US to to thier homeland
Authors: Alkhalaf Khulud , Al-Krenawi Alean , Elbedour Salman
Published: July 2024

This study examines reverse acculturative stress among Saudi students returning to their home country after studying in the USA. A study on Saudi students is particularly important due to scant empirical attention on Middle Eastern students. Given the population size of returning Saudi students, it is worth analyzing their adaptation to their home country, especially as the KSA has renewed its efforts at “saudification of the workforce,” a goal that relies on a highly educated population. 96 university students participated in the study. Because of the gap in values between Saudi Arabia and the USA, the study hypothesized that Saudi returnees who reported higher levels of reverse culture shock would report lower life satisfaction and quality of life. Additionally, the study posited that students’ identification with their Saudi heritage would correlate negatively with reverse culture shock. A novel tripartite intervention model is proposed to reduce reverse culture shock.

These results provide valuable insights into the career development process of international students during a global pandemic. The implications of these findings and directions for future research are thoroughly discussed.
Exploring the experiences of queer international students accessing mental health support in Victoria, Australia
Authors: Hu Xin , Flynn Catherine
Published: July 2024

International students (IS) generate significant revenue in Australia, bringing diversity, but also distinctive needs and values. IS experience unique mental health challenges and their unmet support needs have recently received public and academic attention, notably during the COVID-19 pandemic. A small number of existing Australian studies have examined IS mental health experiences, focusing on their individual behaviours and attitudes towards help seeking. However, framing IS as  homogeneous misses important variations within this population. This study therefore explores the experiences of a diverse IS subgroup - queer international students (QIS), and the barriers and facilitators that influence how they seek and gain mental health support. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six QIS studying in Victoria. Results show that the persistent impacts of broader socio-cultural factors and systemic gaps act as barriers for QIS to access support, while awareness of intersectionality is critical in providing appropriate professional assistance to QIS.

The following trends characterize the economic development of innovatively oriented enterprises of agri-food socio-economic systems in the conditions of market pricing: there is an increase in the overall production of food products, beverages and tobacco products, in particular pork,poultry and canned goods from them, vegetables, sunflower oil, liquid milk, cereals, non-carbonated mineral water, cigarettes; growth per person. In Ukraine, the production of the following food products and beverages increased: pork and poultry meat, canned vegetables, sunflower oil, liquid milk, butter, and non-carbonated mineral water. At the same time, there was a reduction in the production of sausage products, certain fruit products, margarine, cheese, certain dairy products, flour, bread, flour products, chocolate, confectionery, and beverages. There is a decrease per capita in the production of such food products and beverages in Ukraine as sausages, juices, some other fruit products, margarine, cheese, certain dairy products, bread and bakery products, chocolate, sugar confectionery, carbonated mineral water, beverages non-alcoholic; growth of wholesale turnover of food products and the share of sales of domestic food products with a simultaneous reduction in the specific weight of food in the structure of wholesale turnover. There was a decrease in the volume of retail sales of certain food product groups, in particular, such as: meat and meat products, butter, vegetable oils, cheese, eggs, confectionery, tea, flour, bakery and pasta products, potatoes, vegetables, fruits , berries, grapes; positive dynamics of retail turnover of food products, which is obviously related to the dynamics of solvent demand of the population. We also observe an increase in the specific share of products of vegetable and animal origin, live animals, fats and oil in the structure of the state's exports, while the share of ready-made food products decreases. In general, the volume of food exports increased; the specific weight of ready-made food products, products of plant origin, fats and oils in the structure of national imports increased, while the share of live animals and products of animal origin decreased at the same time

Published: July 2024

The authors of the article emphasize that, given the contemporary conditions in Ukraine necessitating legislative changes, particularly those concerning the reinforcement of criminal liability for offenses committed during a state of war, it is also crucial to undertake a scholarly analysis of legislative novelties. This analysis can substantiate their feasibility or, conversely, identify legal issues they may engender, such as conflicts, gaps, competition between legal norms, and so forth. It is noted that military criminal offenses are outlined in Section XIX of the Special Part of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, which contains the definition of military criminal offenses. The societal danger of these offenses is justified by the threat they pose to the effectiveness of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other military formations created in accordance with Ukrainian laws, which are a guarantee of maintaining peace, national security, and territorial integrity. The article underscores the importance of both a properly organized system of law enforcement agencies and a system of legal norms establishing grounds for holding guilty individuals accountable. The authors focus on studying the legislative provisions regarding desertion in the Criminal Code of Ukraine and the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses. From the analysis of judicial practice, it is evident that this type of military offense is the most widespread within the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The relevance of the article lies in the necessity to analyze the amendments made to the relevant legislative acts. For example, new features of administrative and criminal liability for AWOL. Based on the research of criminal law scholars and lawyers, several problems related to the qualification of this type of military offense are presented. Drawing from the analysis of the outlined qualification problems of AWOL under Ukrainian law, the article discusses methods to overcome them. Key words: military offenses, criminal liability, Criminal Code of Ukraine, Armed Forces of Ukraine, military personnel, state of war.

Authors: Demchenko Oleksandr ,   Odesa National University of Technology
Published: July 2024

The article is devoted to substantiating the composition and interrelationship of the tools of the organizational and economic mechanism of investment in the formation and development of human capital. Investments in human capital are critical to the sustainable socio-economic development of society. They increase labor productivity through the education and qualification of workers, stimulate innovation and technological progress, ensuring the competitiveness of the economy. Also, such investments in human capital reduce social inequalities and improve the quality of life by providing access to education, health care, and other vital resources necessary for the development of each person. This contributes to the general well-being and stability of society. It is proven that scientific and technical progress and humanization of social relations are critical factors in the transformation of the factor of production "labor force" into the factor "human capital." These processes act as catalysts that stimulate investment in a person, forming a stock of health, knowledge, abilities, skills, abilities, and motivations. This ensures the income of their bearer, increases labor productivity and contributes to the growth of society's welfare. Scientific and technological progress and humanization cause positive changes through an organizational and economic investment mechanism based on a social partnership between the private sector and the state to ensure human capital financing. It was determined that the organizational and economic mechanism for the formation and development of human capital in rural areas of Ukraine involves a combination of scientific and technical progress and the humanization of social relations based on social partnership, namely a combination of investment efforts of the private sector and the state, aimed at ensuring total financing of the components that form human capital. The organizational and economic mechanism for the formation and development of human capital in rural areas of Ukraine involves a combination of scientific and technical progress and humanization of social relations based on social partnership – a combination of investment efforts of the private sector and the state, aimed at ensuring total financing of the components that form human capital.

Published: July 2024

According to the socio-cognitive nature of ideologies that is manifested in the belief system and ideologically based practices that shared by members of social groups, critical pragmatics(CP henceforth) has come to existence. CP is a sub field of socio-pragmatics that works within macro pragmatics which deals with cognitively , socially , and culturally issues such as domination , power , language , ideology ,etc.(Al-hindawi& Al-khazali, 2021: 1).
      It is well –known that language is not only a tool for communication and transition of information but it can be manipulated to be an  instrument of offence and defense. Language remains a rich and adaptable tool for configuration of life events . It can bring solidarity , harmony and brotherhood if it is properly utilized , but if it wrongly applied it can provoke animosity , conflict and violence . Manipulation is one of the strategies in which language is utilized for negative goals .
      This study is concerned with an important feature of political discourse, that is; manipulation which is analyzed from critical pragmatic perspective . This feature has become the most prominent feature of this type of discourse due to the nature of politics itself. This study examines manipulation in ten of Trump's political speeches and involves discovering how Trump constructs ideological discourse to present reality for his audience that frames his ideology by using manipulating strategies . Such strategies are conducted by Trump to marketing his agenda , ideology and programme to his audience

The integration of computers into foreign language training appears to support the claim that effective technology use in education may improve both teaching and learning. This study aimed to investigate the effects of using technology, including computers, Iraq undergraduate English language instruction uses the internet and a multimedia projector. The participants were 4 EFL teachers and 40 undergraduate students studying English as their compulsory study course. The study applied in-depth interviews and questionnaires to collect data. The study found that the use of technology in English language instruction had a mixed effect. On the one hand, the technologies stimulated and inspired students to become more engaged with their lessons; on the other hand, the teachers felt more secure and the classes were more dynamic and productive when technology was used in the classroom. It was also discovered that technologies had certain unfavorable effects. The survey also revealed that not many teachers in our nation were proficient in using modern technology in the classroom. That efficient use of technology in the classroom was uncommon. They therefore recommended several training programs that would be beneficial to them.  Lastly, this study made the case that implementing technology at the undergraduate level required the support of the institutions and qualified instructors.
Character Building in the Novel (The Hedgehogs on a Hot Day)
Authors: Assi Azhar Ali
Published: July 2024

The character in the novel (The Hedgehogs on a Hot Day) by the author (Falah Rahim) played an important role; it was the beating heart of the novel as it created the events and gave vitality to time and place. The author utilized all techniques well and artistically in drawing the characters, striving to make them lively and lifelike, not cartoonish figures moved at the author’s whim. The main character is the narrator (Salim Kadhim), who narrates in the first person, tilting the novel towards an autobiographical approach. As for the secondary characters, some were supportive while others opposed and struggled against the main character. The author was able to clarify the dimensions of the character in the novel through external features, psychological descriptions, as well as their thoughts, beliefs, and social backgrounds. The author presented his characters in two ways: the first is reporting, which depends on drawing the character from the outside, such as appearance and clothing; the second is revelation through what others say about a character, as well as dialogue—both the external dialogue, which is the best means of introducing the character, and the internal dialogue, through which the character reveals all their feelings and emotions, and discloses their behavior and actions in response to events in reality.

Geotechnische Implikationen rechtlicher Rahmenbedingungen für die Erkundung und Überwachung von CO2-Speichern unter dem Meeresboden
Authors: May Franz
Published: July 2024

Prinzip, Prozesse und Anforderungen der CO2 -Speicherung an den Untergrund sind bei Speicherstandorten unter dem Meeresboden nicht anders als an Land. Dennoch unterscheiden sich die erforderlichen Technologien, vor allem bei der Untersuchung der Standorte, der Errichtung und bei der Überwachung der Speicher (z.B. IEA-GHG 2015). Geotechnische Implikationen und Herausforderungen, die sich aus dem Kohlendioxid-Speicherungsgesetz (KSpG) und dem Treibhausgas-Emissionshandelsgesetz (TEHG) und insbesondere aus deren Anlagen und Ver- ordnungen für die Speicheruntersuchung und Überwachung im marinen Bereich ergeben, werden in diesem Be- richt zum AP5.2 des GEOSTOR Projektes beleuchtet. Diese werden den verfügbaren und den in AP 4 ‚Monitoring‘ zu entwickelnden Erkundungs- und Überwachungstechnologien gegenübergestellt. Bestehende Vorschläge für Er- kundungs- und Überwachungskonzepte, wie z.B. die EU „Guidance Documents“, werden mit den rechtlichen An- forderungen verglichen. Mögliche Konflikte zwischen Untersuchungs- und Überwachungsmethoden und Umwelt- schutzanforderungen oder konkurrierenden Nutzungen werden aufgezeigt (ergänzend zu den Arbeiten unter AP5.1), um weiteren Optimierungs- und Handlungsbedarf für die rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen zur Einführung der marinen geologischen CO2 -Speicherung in der deutschen AWZ aufzuzeigen.
Navigating the nexus of LMIC healthcare facilities, nurses' welfare, nurse shortage and migration to greener pastures: A narrative literature review
Authors: Adesuyi Emmanuel , Olarinde Oluwatosin , Olawoore Samuel , Ajakaye Opeyemi
Published: July 2024

Background & Aim: This review explores the intricate interplay between healthcare facilities, nurses' welfare, and the dynamics of shortage and migration in LMICs. Through a comprehensive global lens, the analysis delves into the multifaceted challenges and implications inherent in nurse migration, offering insights into developing effective strategies for a sustainable and equitable healthcare workforce. Methods & Materials: This narrative literature review was conducted from 2012 to present across PubMed, CINAHL, MEDLINE, EmCare, British Nursing Index, Hinari, APA PsycINFO, ProQuest, and EMBASE. Google Scholar was also searched for grey literature and the reference lists of the included articles were examined to identify additional relevant studies. A comprehensive analysis was conducted, employing descriptive theoretical frameworks to examine the association of nurses’ welfare, shortage, and migration with specific emphasis on elucidating its global implications. The analysis identified healthcare facilities in LMICs, nurses' welfare in LMICs and its significance, global nurse shortage and its consequence, and nurses’ migration as a response to challenges. These themes provided a framework for understanding the phenomenon under review. Results: The migration of nurses in search of greener pastures has not entirely resolved the challenges faced by both migrating nurses and the recruiting countries. The persistently unfavourable conditions in the nurses’ home countries regarded as the push factors continue to worsen while the anticipated gain referred to as pulls, in the recruiting countries are often found to be imperfect and ultimately insufficient to fulfil the expectations of the migrating nurses.Conclusion: Individual countries must internally formulate or adapt policies to address these issues, taking cognizance of the importance of a global perspective when designing interventions, to prevent inadvertently exacerbating gaps in other nations while addressing local healthcare challenges.

The generation and analysis of genome-scale data—genomics—is driving a rapid increase in plant biodiversity knowledge. However, the speed and complexity of technological advance in genomics presents challenges for its widescale use in evolutionary and conservation biology. Here, we introduce and describe a national-scale collaboration conceived to build genomic resources and capability for understanding the Australian flora: the Genomics for Australian Plants (GAP) Framework Initiative. We outline (a) the history of the project including the collaborative framework, partners, and funding; (b) GAP principles such as rigour in design, sample verification and documentation, data management, and data accessibility; and (c) the structure of the consortium and its four activity streams (reference genomes, phylogenomics, conservation genomics, and training), with the rationale and aims for each of them. We show, through discussion of its successes and challenges, the value of this multi-institutional consortium approach and the enablers, such as well-curated collections and national collaborative research infrastructure, all of which have led to a substantial increase in capacity and delivery of biodiversity knowledge outcomes.

In order to compare the herd size, income level, and the vegetation in the sustainably-managed grazing pasture with unsustainably-managed grazing pasture, this study selected the two pastures that receive heavy-load of camel population and other two pastures receiving light-load of camel herds. In desert having xerophyite Zygophyllum xanthoxylum, the pastures were classified into unsustainably-managed herdsman pasture (UHPZ) and sustainably-managed herdsman pasture (SHPZ). In addition, pastures were ccategorized into unsustainably-managed herdsman pasture (UHPK) and sustainably-managed herdsman pasture (SHPK) in deserts dominated by Krascheninnikovia ceratoides. The vegetation volume of Zygophyllum xanthoxylum at SHPZ, UHPZ and the gravelization sample at UHPZ is 1560 cm3, 480 cm3 and 4 cm3, respectively. On the other hand, the vegetation volume of Krascheninnikovia ceratoides at SHPK, UHPK and the gravelization sample at UHPK is 840 cm3, 510 cm3 and 8 cm3, respectively. In addition, the herdsmen grazing animals in UHPZ and UHPK responded almost no income obtained over the past five years. In conclusion, the vegetation situation and the income level of the sustainable-managed pasture are significantly better than the unsustainable-managed pastures. The local ecological community maybe the major player in decision-making in favour of the Indigenous people, pastures’ vegetation management, and the livelihoods.
Trend in the Utilization of Antipsychotics in the National Health Coverage Era in Indonesia: A Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Julaeha Julaeha , Yuliana Verra , Ayuningtyas Josephine Paramita
Published: July 2024

The utilization pattern of antipsychotics has undergone significant changes since the introduction of atypical antipsychotics. Currently, medication for patients with schizophrenia predominantly uses atypical antipsychotics rather than typical antipsychotics. This study aimed to present the updated utilization pattern of antipsychotics among Indonesians. A cross-sectional study was conducted in 2019-2020 at the National Mental Hospital in Indonesia. Data were collected from medication-used reports from either inpatients or outpatients. A descriptive analysis was conducted to present the pattern and the annual total cost for each antipsychotic used. The pattern of typical antipsychotics used from 2019 to 2020 was likely to decline. The total cost estimated for typical antipsychotics in 2019 was IDR 475 million, and IDR 420 million in 2020. Trifluoperazine 5 mg was the most commonly typical antipsychotic used, followed by chlorpromazine 100 mg and haloperidol 5 mg. Eventually, the pattern of atypical antipsychotics used was likely to increase. The total cost was estimated at IDR 3.2 billion in 2019 and IDR 3.8 billion in 2020. Risperidone 2 mg was the most commonly atypical antipsychotic used, followed by clozapine 25 mg and risperidone 3 mg. This study proves the trend toward increased atypical antipsychotics used. Accordingly, the cost of schizophrenia treatment was elevated.

Published: July 2024

Knowledge of local and regional antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is important for clinical decision-making. However, surveillance capacity for fungal infections let alone antifungal resistance is lacking throughout West Africa, and current antifungal resistance data are sparse. We sought to address this gap by summarizing all available high-quality data on antifungal resistance in West Africa. We searched the PubMed database, African Journals Online archives, and free web searches in October and December 2023 using the terms "antifungal resistance" and "West Africa" to find articles published from 2010 onwards. Only 11 articles were included in our analysis most of which were cross-sectional and descriptive in design; relatively high levels of antifungal resistance (AFR) to commonly used antifungals were reported including (24-75%) resistance to fluconazole and ketoconazole, two of the most frequently-prescribed antifungals in this region. There is a high level of resistance to griseofulvin, ketoconazole, cotrimoxazole, and fluconazole among dermatophyte infections (80-100%) with 100% resistance to amphotericin B, ketoconazole, and fluconazole reported by the invasive fungal disease-causing pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans. Resistance to commonly used anti-fungal drugs is prevalent; raising concern that these drugs may no longer be useful for treating moderate or severe fungal infections in West Africa hence calling for countries to promote acceptance of antimicrobial stewardship as a programmatic strategy not just focused on bacterial resistance but also fungal resistance including pharmacy management, laboratory complete mycological investigations and dissemination of standard fungal susceptibility profiles.

This research attempts to establish the antihyperglycemic potential of Eremomastax speciosa, a medicinal plant utilized in traditional West African diabetes therapy, through virtual simulation. While numerous reports have validated its biological potency, studies on the drug-likeness and antidiabetic properties of its compounds are limited.  The in silico pharmacological, and toxicological profile of aqueous, methanolic/methylene phytochemicals from previously reported work was analyzed using Swiss ADME and Protox II online server. The docking process was performed using PyRx-0.8, coupled with AutoDock Vina. Phytochemicals that aligned with Lipinski’s rules for drugs were then subjected to a virtual docking simulation. This simulation replicated the inhibitory effects of E. speciosa phytochemicals on sodium-glucose co-transporters (SGLT2) and α-amylase, similar to metformin, an FDA-approved antidiabetic medicine utilized as a control. Phytochemicals such as 8, 9,10-dimethyltricyclo[4.2.1.1(2,5)]decane-9,10-diol (-6.6 kcal/mol), 11-isopropylidenetricyclo[4.3.1.1(2,5)]undec-3-en-10-one (-7.9 kcal/mol), 4-(1,5-dihydroxy-2,6,6-trimethylcyclohex-2-enyl)but-3-en-2-one (-7.3 kcal/mol), and N-methyl-N-4-[2-acetoxymethyl-1-pyrrolidyl]-2-butynyl]-acetamide (-7.5 kcal/mol) exhibits superior binding affinities to the specific proteins targeted, compared to metformin, implying that E. speciosa is a source of druggable antidiabetic molecules that can be enhanced to achieve better efficacy.

The bromelain-enzymatic reaction is applied in virgin coconut oil (VCO) production. Hydrolysis of the emulator by bromelain enzyme in coconut milk during fermentation maximized further the separation of oil and water. In the higher demand for VCO in many industries, the VCO stability during transportation and storage must be evaluated.  The research aims to evaluate the physical and chemical stability of the effect of temperature in the storage. VCO's physical and chemical stability was evaluated under two different temperature and storage periods: an elevated temperature of 50°C for 10 days and room temperature (27-30°C) for 50 days. The storage was conducted in a clear glass bottle. The evaluation was based on physical and chemical stability tests before and after storage, including organoleptic, pH changes, density, viscosity, acid number, peroxide number, and saponification number. Based on the data, the quality of the VCO after storing at 50°C for 10 days and 27-30°C for 50 days was found to be changed for pH, specific gravity, viscosity, acid number, peroxide number, saponification number, while for the appearance was found to be no changes. The VCO was very sensitive to environmental effects. Therefore, it is necessary to find the best storage chamber and temperature for stabilizing the VCO.

Health workers are on the front line, especially as nurses who are always next to patients 1 x 24 hours. We must take precautions by means of hand hygiene before and after carrying out nursing care, where the COVID-19 outbreak is spreading very quickly resulting in an increase in the number of patients in the whole world. To reduce and prevent the transmission of this virus, we as nurses in providing nursing care must carry out hand hygiene and comply with WHO's 5 moments of hand hygiene, namely before touching a patient, before a clean or aseptic procedure, after exposure to or risk of body fluids. This study aims to determine the analysis of hand hygiene behavior in preventing COVID-19 among nurses at the Labuang Baji Regional General Hospital, Makassar City. The research design used is a quantitative research design with a crosssectional approach. The sample determination was carried out using a random sampling research method with a sample size of 83 respondents. The relationship test was carried out using the chi-square statistical test with a significance level (ρ) ≤ 0.05. The research results showed that the level of knowledge of nurses in the good category was 27 people (32.5%); the attitude of nurses in the positive category was 59 people (71.1%); there is no relationship between knowledge and hand hygiene behavior (p=0.786); and there is no relationship between attitude and hand hygiene behavior (p=0.372). The conclusion of this research is that there is no influence of nurses' knowledge and attitudes about hand hygiene on COVID-19 prevention measures at the Labuang Baji Regional General Hospital, Makassar City. It is recommended for future researchers to improve the implementation of hand hygiene among nurses in the motivation and work of PPI.
