Authors: Ban Shengchuan
Published: August 2024

In response to increasing global trade, IKEA implemented a more efficient supply chain strategy and introduced a new policy in 2011 to localize its supply chain. The objective of this inquiry was to examine the alterations in supply chain management. Following the transition from centralized to regionalized supply chains, corporations faced adverse consequences such as decreased operational efficiency, increased operating expenses, and reduced adaptability in meeting market needs. These implications include increased complexity in supply chain management, decentralized operating models that result in repeated investments in fixed assets, and trade restrictions that create challenges in integrating information. The article proposes implementing efficient management systems, enhancing collaboration with local suppliers, and utilizing artificial intelligence to optimize the structure of the supply chain based on the observed impacts and outcomes. The objective is to offer risk management guidance for firms that have reached maximum production capacity and require a shift in their supply chain management methods.

Published: August 2024

Technological advancements and significant strides in artificial intelligence have undeniably propelled economic growth. Integrating AI into production processes enhances productivity and efficiency. AI systems can operate continuously without breaks, and advanced technologies minimize the risk of human errors, producing high-quality goods and reducing costs. Ever since the inception of ChatGPT, the discourse surrounding the potential replacement of human labor by artificial intelligence has been a recurring theme. However, specific industries within the job market are resistant to being replaced by artificial intelligence, as they require distinct human qualities like creativity, emotion, and decision-making skills. These professions require problem-solving, interpersonal skills, emotional understanding, moral decision-making, and various unique human talents. This paper analyses the relationship between AI and the unemployment rate and the solution. It revealed the temporary decline in production efficiency, including short-term production efficiency reduction and long-term productivity improvements. Various policies can be implemented to address the issues mentioned, including initiatives to enhance education and improve the transparency of AI applications.

Authors: n Bet , Kalkan K , lu Eda , Karaman Enes , Yay Arzu
Published: August 2024

Objective: The use of methotrexate (MTH), a drug commonly prescribed to treat rheumatoid arthritis, cancer, and certain autoimmune diseases, has been linked to early ovarian failure and infertility in women when used in varying amounts and durations. In this study, the possible effects of MTH exposure at different doses on rat ovary were investigated histologically and immunohistochemically.

Materials and Methods: A total of 21 female rats, Wistar albino, were utilized in the investigation. The control group (n = 7) was not subjected to any treatment. The 10 mg/kg MTH group (n = 7) and the 20 mg/kg MTH group (n = 7) were given intraperitoneal injections of 10 mg/kg and 20 mg/kg methotrexate, respectively. Five days after injection, the ovarian tissues were taken out of the anesthetized rats and subjected to routine histological tissue processing.
The histological evaluation was performed with hematoxylin and eosin (H & E) and Masson's trichrome (MT) on paraffin block sections. Additionally, immunohistochemical staining was performed to determine AMH immunoreactivity.

Results: In both MTH groups, histopathological changes were observed, particularly in the 20 mg/kg group, and these included the presence of areas of edema as well as dilated or congested blood vessels. Furthermore, the 20 mg/kg MTH group exhibited increased fibrotic tissue in the ovarian medulla. The number of follicles and AMH immunoreactivity were observed to be reduced in the MTH groups, with the reduction reaching a statistically significant level in the 20 mg/kg MTH group ovary. In terms of AMH immunoreactivity, it is demonstrated that there is no statistical significance between the control and 10 mg/kg MTH groups.

Conclusion: The dose of MTH should be considered carefully, as increasing the dose may lead to deterioration of ovarian histopathology and a reduction in the reserve of the ovary.

Published: August 2024

Introduction: To provide further data from a population with different genetic background for the contrary views on the ensuing question of “whether iodine status influence the onset and course of thyroid cancer (TC)” by examining trends in TC incidence and prevalence of main sub types of TC in a population from formerly iodine deficient geographic area in Turkey.
Methods: Data were retrieved for 2,705 patients (2,161 female, 544 male) who were diagnosed with histopathologically confirmed thyroid cancer at Karadeniz Technical University Farabi Hospital, a university hospital serving a geographic region which remains an endemic goiter area and was formerly iodine-deficient, shortly after mandatory national salt iodization, between 2000 and 2018. Age, gender, subtype, tumor size, stage, and the changes and trends over the years were retrospectively evaluated.
Results: Thyroid cancer rates had a trend of increase from 2000 to 2012 and then began to decline. In our region, PTC is more prevalent (93.5%). Among all thyroid cancers, the ratio of micro papillary thyroid cancer (mPTC) is 46.5%, FTC is only 3.5%. mPTC (tumor size ≤10 mm) (49.8%) and macroPTC (tumor size >10 mm) (50.2%) are approximately equal in proportion, and these ratios remained similar over the years covered in this analysis. Stage I PTC is 95.3%. M0 PTC is %98.9.
Conclusion: Data from this retrospective epidemiologic study indicates that the rate of PTC is notably high and TC may have a more benign course in our endemic goiter region probably due to iodine supplementation that may affect late-stage thyroid carcinogenesis.
Is Irisin Really a Neuroendocrine (F)actor?
Authors: Sandal Suleyman , Unuvar Songul , Yilmaz Bayram
Published: August 2024

Irisin was identified as a peptide hormone in 2012. The most important known physiological effect of irisin is that it activates uncoupling protein 1 and converts white adipose tissue to brown adipose tissue. Due to this effect of irisin on adipose tissue, it was thought that it may be closely related to obesity, feeding behavior and energy expenditure, and interest in research in this direction has increased. In later studies, evidence was obtained that irisin, in addition to these effects, has also effects on the reproductive system, nervous system, cardiovascular and excretory systems. Recent studies have determined that irisin has anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic properties, and it has been reported that pathologies such as obesity, endocrine and metabolic diseases, Alzheimer's disease, chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular diseases, atherosclerosis and cancer may be associated with changes irisin levels. The fact that irisin is expressed in different tissues other than muscle and fat tissue and exhibits autocrine and endocrine functions, as well as being expressed in different regions of the brain and participating in neuroendocrine processes in these regions, brings to mind that irisin may be a new neuroendocrine factor. In this review, we present information that will constitute evidence that irisin is a real neuroendocrine factor.

Authors: Genc Serife , Kurt Begum , Gulturk Esra
Published: August 2024

Endometrial cancer remains a significant health concern, particularly in developed nations where its prevalence is increasing. Reliable prognostic markers are paramount to enhance disease management and patient outcomes. This study explores the prognostic capabilities of various hematological indices, including the eosinophil-lymphocyte ratio (ELR) and the prognostic nutritional index (PNI), in relation to endometrioid type endometrial cancer (ETEC) staging and grading. We retrospectively analyzed data from ETEC patients, categorizing them by tumor grade and stage, and evaluating their hematological indices from preoperative blood samples. Our results indicated that higher ELR and lower PNI levels correlate with more advanced tumor grades and stages. Additionally, the platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) was found to be the most significant marker for staging, with PLT, SII, SIRI, ELR, and PNI also showing significant differences across stages. These findings suggest that hematological indices such as ELR and PNI could be instrumental in predicting tumor grade and stage, offering valuable insights for clinical practice. Future research should focus on prospective studies to confirm these findings and consider the integration of these markers into standard diagnostic protocols.

Dealing With Territorial Boundaries, Space, and Time in Robinson Crusoe and Life of Pi Novels (Postcolonial Perspective)
Authors: Baga Magdalena
Published: August 2024

Today's globalization eliminates time, space, distance, and national barriers. The two novels examined in this study implied those issues. The objective of this study is to analyze the territorial boundaries, spatial dimensions, and temporal aspects that evoke a profound impact in Robinson Crusoe and Life of Pi, employing a postcolonial perspective. Both of these works originated from a shared concept, specifically the theme of being stranded as a result of a shipwreck. However, these novels were written throughout distinct times spanning several centuries. Robinson Crusoe was published in the 18th century, whilst Life of Pi was published during the 21st century. The similar concept of "Castaway" does not imply the creation of an identical narrative. The level of precision in the portrayal of territorial boundaries, space, and time in these two works is noteworthy, but they exhibit certain distinctions. The narrative of Robinson Crusoe prominently features people embodying the roles of master and slave, hence highlighting the concept of social boundaries. Contrarily, Life of Pi explores the ambiguous nature of borders about territory, space, and time, as they are consistently subject to dispute. Consequently, the delineation of power dynamics between characters is likewise a matter of contestation. In conclusion, these two novels convey two different ideologies by territory, space, and time considered through the lens of post-colonialism. The span of centuries demonstrates the diversity of human interpretations of them. Robinson Crusoe conveys the idea that colonialism is inevitable. Meanwhile, Life of Pi interprets colonialism as cruelty.

Hydrocarbon accumulations in the Lower Pliocene Productive Series of Apsheron Peninsula have formed owing to subvertical hydrocarbon migration from the underlying Maykop and Diatom source formations. This concept has been substantiated by the recent studies based on the molecular-isotopic characteristics of organic matter, oil and gas. The most notable feature of the Apsheron oils is the stable predominance of paraffin-naphthene HCs in all oil fractions, and this is true for all the fields considered. Meanwhile two geological features had major influence on formation of the composition and properties of Lower Pliocene oils in Apsheron Peninsula. In structures unaffected by tectonic erosion more mobile light components of oils happened accumulated in upper stratigrafically younger horizons due to natural fractionation of hydrocarbons on their upward migration routes. In anticlinal folds with washed out crestal part physical and biochemical degradation has caused the loss of light hydrocarbons, first of all of methane fraction, and in this way weighting up of oils. From top to bottom, towards the basal PS suites the distillate fractions show reduction in the light ends (gasoline and naphtha), which is predictably accompanied by an increase in the amount of bottoms. Compositional variation in oil hydrocarbons laterally and through the section of the peninsula is graphically demonstrated on the basis of gasoline, ligroin, kerosene and diesel cuts of oil. In terms of elemental composition, the deeper the stratigraphic occurrence of the reservoir, the more the whole oil is enriched in sulphur- and nitrogen-containing polar compounds. Keywords: oil; hydrocarbon composition; Apsheron Peninsula; the Productive Series; Lower Pliocene.

Honest behavior is behavior that reflects generosity and loyalty, because by saying and behaving honestly someone will be respected by others. However, lately honest attitudes and behavior have begun to be rarely seen, especially in children. Practicing honesty in children from an early age needs to be done so that later children can grow into good personalities and can be trusted by everyone. Not all things that make children lie are bad things. Sometimes, children can lie because they cannot distinguish between what is true and what is not. In addition, children may also lie for several reasons, namely feeling afraid of being punished, avoiding work or obligations, seeking attention, trying to get something they want. , Fear of disappointing others. There are several impacts that can be received if a child is used to telling dishonest things, namely, by telling dishonest things it will become a bad habit, will be shunned by other people, will always feel suspected, will be shunned and disliked by others. In addition, there are also several tactics or ways so that children can say and behave honestly, including by explaining the good when telling the truth and the bad when saying dishonestly, admonishing in a subtle way, form their mindset, respect the honesty conveyed, teach them to always be grateful. There are several stages carried out in this study including, the Intake Case Stage, the Member Selection Stage, the Assessment and Intervention Planning Stage, the Group Development Stage, and the Evaluation and Termination Stage.

Inventory of Electronic Waste (E-Waste) and Residues in Junkshops: A Step Towards Residual Waste Management
Authors: Ventabal Rachel Alexis S. , Cruz Zia May S. , Santos Jasper F. , Basilio Eleonor R.
Published: August 2024

The improper management of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) constitutes a critical global environmental challenge, with a significant proportion of e-waste ending up in landfills, posing substantial ecological and health risks. In the Philippines, particularly in areas like Marilao and Bulacan, many individuals rely on the recycling of e-waste for their livelihoods, primarily through junkshops and informal recycling networks. Despite providing economic benefits, these practices often result in substantial residual waste, exacerbating landfill overflow and environmental degradation. This study aims to establish a detailed e-waste inventory and propose practical strategies for improving residual waste management. This research used a mixed-method approach to collect data via surveys, interviews, and direct observations at selected junkshops in Marilao. The findings enabled a comprehensive categorization of e-waste based on economic value, highlighting "temperature exchange equipment" as the most economically valuable category while identifying "small IT and telecommunication equipment" as the least. Among the significant residual wastes identified were base/black plastics, styrofoam, and glass, which are commonly mishandled. The study proposes several management strategies, including partnerships with local governmental bodies and recycling companies to enhance recycling processes, improving dismantling techniques to reduce waste, and implementing rigorous waste segregation practices to prevent contamination and improve recycling rates. This expansion is critical for a more comprehensive understanding and monitoring of e-waste management practices, facilitating the development of more effective and sustainable waste management solutions. By adopting these strategies, junkshops and informal recyclers can optimize e-waste management, reducing environmental impact while maintaining economic viability.

The fungal pathogen Ascosphaera apis significantly impacts the honey bee Apis mellifera by causing larval mortality and reducing colony productivity. Understanding the growth dynamics of A. apis under different media conditions is crucial for advancing research on its biology and pathogenicity. This study evaluates the effect of eight artificial media namely Potato Dextrose Agar (PDA), Carrot Dextrose Agar (CDA), Beetroot Dextrose Agar (BDA), Tender Coconut Water (TCW) media, Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA), Sabouraud Dextrose Agar Yeast (SDAY), Sabouraud Maltose Agar Yeast (SMAY), and Malt Extract Agar (MEA) on the mycelial growth and reproductive structure formation of A. apis's two mating types. Results indicated significant differences in mycelial growth across media. SDA (75.40 mm dia) and SDAY (74.83 mm dia) supported maximum growth for mating type 1 (MAT1) and, SDA (72.72 mm dia) and BDA (68.17 mm dia) yielded the maximum growth for mating type 2 (MAT2). The TCW resulted in the least growth for MAT1 (44.19 mm dia) and MAT2 (41.25 mm dia). The growth patterns showed that media supplemented with sugars generally enhanced A. apis growth, whereas non-sugar media did not. Furthermore, reproductive structures formed faster on PDA and CDA than on other media. The study confirms that media composition, particularly sugar content, critically influences the growth and development of A. apis, providing insights that could help to develop better management strategies for controlling chalkbrood disease in honey bee colonies.
Estimation of Surface Temperature and Heat Flux over a Hollow Cylinder and Slab using an Inverse Heat Conduction Approach

A non-iterative approximation of the inverse heat conduction problem has been developed through energy balance between the control volumes. The heat flow domain along the surface normal was divided into three control volumes and studied in three cases, specifically on a heated hollow metallic cylinder cooled in crossflow of air, a heating flat plate in still air, and a heated flat plate when cooled in still air with random air blows. The time derivatives of temperature and heat flux estimates at the surface appearing in derived equations were evaluated by approximate expressions. Both estimates were obtained from the derived equations by simultaneous measurement of temperature-time histories at two locations: one at the inner surface and the other anywhere within the control volume along the surface normal. The deviation was checked by real-time simultaneous measurement of temperature-time history at the outer surface along the normal surface. Comparison between the estimated surface temperature-time history using the derived equations and the real-time measurement showed deviations within 0.5 % for the cylinder, within 0.03 % for the plate in still air and within 0.5 % when air blows were given. Heat fluxes estimated using these time histories were correspondingly arrived at consistent and close approximations for all cases. Estimates from the derived equations were compared with reported equations from the literature, and a wind tunnel experiment for the validation of circumferential distribution of heat transfer was conducted, for which they also showed reasonably good agreements.

Divorce is a condition where a wife is separated from her husband and vice versa, the husband leaves his wife which causes the loss of certain rights and obligations. Divorce that occurs of course has an impact and the main victims of divorce are the children in the family. This article aims to find out what impact children feel after their parents' divorce. The method used in this research is the library reaseach method (library study). Divorce that occurs has a positive and negative impact on children. However, from several studies that have been carried out, the negative impact is more dominant in children than the positive impact. To overcome psychological problems in children, help from the family and understanding of divorce is needed in society so as not to judge children.

The Influence of The Friendship Environment On The Emotional Development Of Youth. The method used in this study is a qualitative research that is library research, using journals, and articles related to the influence of the friendship environment on the emotional development of adolescents. Emotions in each individual have a different emotional response. We can see this from how individuals express their emotional feelings, for example, when they feel sad, there are teenagers who show their sadness by crying bitterly, there are also those who only express sad emotions by being silent, gloomy, and making them not want to do anything. Based on the results of reviewing and analyzing journals related to the title, it can be concluded that the influence of the friendship environment on the emotional development of adolescents is very influential because during adolescence. Therefore, the influence of friendship will have a greater impact on the individual than the influence that comes from the family environment. So it is necessary to have an individual stand and also be good at choosing healthy friendships so that they can support each other's emotional development efficiently and continuously. In this journal, which is sourced from several journals that have been reviewed, there are still many shortcomings in each discussion, especially in the minimizing section so that there are no obstacles to the emotional development of adolescents themselves. Therefore, for further researchers who are interested in raising the theme of exuberance, it is hoped that this section will be more emphasized.
