Authors: Bogolyubov Sergey A.
Published: May 2022

The escalating environmental problems need scientific understanding, which is facilitated by the theoretical and educational works of Professor I.A. Ignatieva. They analyze the concept, objects, sources, and development of legal institutions of modern environmental law and legislation, considering previously published monographs of well-known scholars. Of great interest are her reflections concerning the initial formation of natural resources law, fundamental for environmental relations, as well as growing importance and development of environmental law. Among other issues the author emphasizes the place of a person in the environment, which is protected for the benefit of his life and health. The traditional for Russian and foreign law issue of the relationship between “environmental protection” and “ensuring environmental safety”, provided for in the Constitution of the Russian Federation, and in strategic planning documents is also in the focus.
Determinants of Dysfunctional Audit Behavior in the Public Accounting Firms
Authors: Mardi Mardi , Sarka Susi Indriani , Kardoyo Kardoyo
Published: May 2022

This study is an empirical examination of the determinants of dysfunctional audit behavior based on professional commitment and organizational commitment, as well as the turnover intention in a public accounting firm. Data were obtained from 100 auditors who have been registered as members of the Indonesian Institute of Certified Public Accountants (IICPA) with a minimum period of active duty of one year using online questionnaires. Data were analyzed using the Structural Equation Modelling with LISREL. This study concludes that organizational commitment and professional commitment have a negative effect on dysfunctional audit behavior and turnover intention. Commitment is crucial to avoiding dysfunctional audit behavior since persons who are committed are less likely to engage in such behavior. Conversely, the more the turnover intention, the higher the risk of dysfunctional audit behavior. Thus, it is suggested that auditors have emotional relationships, economic values, religious morals, and ethical attitudes when performing their duties as public accountants.

Research on Definite Solution Problem of Partial Differential Equations under Two Kinds of Elastic Coefficients of External Boundary Conditions
Authors: Dong Xiaoxu , Cui Kaitao , Li Wenjing , Zeng Zheng , Liu Qun , Li Shun
Published: May 2022

This paper studies the definite solution problems of partial
differential equation (PDE) under two kinds of elastic coefficients
(exponential function type, polynomial function type) of external
boundary conditions. Then the definite solution problems are solved by
Laplace transformation, the method of undetermined coefficients and
Gaver-Stehfest numerical inversion equation. Firstly, the definite
solution problems of linear PDE are transformed into the boundary value
problems of linear differential equations in Laplace Space by Laplace
transformation. Secondly, the solutions in Laplace space of the boundary
value problems of linear differential equations are obtained through
using the method of undetermined coefficients. Finally, Obtain the real
space solution of the definite solution of PDE under three kinds of
elastic coefficients of external boundary conditions by using the
Gaver-Stehfest numerical inversion equation. According to the above
solution steps, this paper gives two different examples and obtains the
corresponding curve analysis of the definite solution problems of PDE
under two kinds of elastic coefficients of external boundary conditions.
The introduction of two kinds of elastic coefficients of external
boundary conditions not only expands the scope of the research on the
definite solution of PDE, but also improves the matching degree between
the theoretical model and the actual problems.

Published: May 2022

Since the advent of catheter ablation (CA) for atrial fibrillation (AF)
in 1998, our understanding of the pathophysiology, as well as our
capacity to target triggers and effectively achieve freedom from AF, has
come a long way. However, as the average age of the population and the
prevalence of chronic diseases increases, the progression of AF from
paroxysmal (PAF) into persistent (PersAF) and long-standing persistent
AF (LSPAF) is on the rise. Given the complex mechanisms involved and the
presence of multiple trigger sites leading to recurrences, managing
non-PAF is a challenge for electrophysiologists around the globe.
Multiple ablation techniques have been investigated, some of which have
shown promising results, but a standardized technique is yet to be
elucidated. In this review, we outline the evidence behind contemporary
ablation techniques in the treatment of AF.

Background: Co-circulation of influenza and SARS-CoV-2 (SARS-CoV-2/Flu)
represent public health concern as it may worsen the severity and
increase fatality from COVID-19. An increase in number of patients with
coinfection was recently reported. We studied epidemiology, severity,
and outcome of SARS-CoV-2/Flu coinfections seen at Egypt acute
respiratory (ARI) surveillance eight hospitals to better describe
disease impact and guide effective preventive measures. Methods: Every
fifth patient admitted and first two outpatients seen daily with ARI are
enrolled. Standardized questionnaire is used to interview patients who
provide nasopharyngeal swabs to be tested weekly at the central
laboratory for SARS-CoV-2 and influenza by RT-PCR. Data of all patients
with coinfection extracted from surveillance database and descriptive
analysis performed for demographics, clinical course, and outcome.
Results: Of 18,160 patients enrolled January 2020-April 2022,
6,453(35.5%) were positive for viruses including 52(0.8%) coinfection.
Of them 36(69.2%) coinfected with FluA/H3, 9(17.3%) Flu-B and
7(13.5%) FluA/H1. Patients’ mean age was 33.2±21, and 55.8% were
males, 20(38.5%) hospitalized, mean hospital days (6.7±6). At hospital
14(70.0%) developed pneumonia, 6(30.0%) ICU admitted, and 4(20.0%)
died. Hospitalization rate among coinfection with Flu-B and FluA/H3 was
(55.6 and 41.7%), mean hospital days (8.0±6 and 6.4±6), pneumonia (40.0
and 80.0%), ICU admission (40.0 and 26.7%), and death (20.0% for
both), while no patients hospitalized with A/H1. Conclusions: An

Published: May 2022

Introduction: An integrated surveillance for acute respiratory
infections (ARIs) was established 2016 at network of 19 governmental
hospitals to identify causes of ARIs in Egypt. In response to COVID-19
pandemic, WHO requested surveillance adaptation to address the emerging
challenges. This report aims at describing Egypt experience in adapting
ARI surveillance to COVID-19 pandemic. Surveillance methods: WHO case
definitions are used to identify ARI patients. NP/OP swabs collected for
influenza testing by RT-PCR at central laboratories. Data collected by
interviewing patients for demographic and clinical information and
entered at sites. During COVID-19 pandemic, the first two outpatients
daily and every fifth admitted patient were enrolled. Patients COVID-19
clinical data and testing for SARS-CoV-2 by RT-PCR were added. Results:
Between January 2020-April 2022, 18,160 patients were enrolled including
7,923(43.6%) outpatients and 10,237(56.4%) admitted. Of them
6,453(35.5%) tested positive including 5,620(87.1%) SARS-CoV-2,
781(12.1%) influenza and 52(0.8%) SARS-CoV-2/influenza coinfection.
SARS CoV-2 caused 95.3% of admitted cases and 65.4% of outpatients.
Influenza subtypes included A/H3 (55.7%), Flu-B (29.1%), H1/pdm09
(14.2%). Compared to influenza, SARS-CoV-2 infections prevail in
elderly, warm weather, and urban governorates. SARS-CoV-2 caused more
hospitalization, longer hospital stay, more severe course and higher
case fatality than influenza (16.3 vs 6.6%, p<0.001).
Conclusion: Egypt ARI surveillance was successfully adapted to COVID-19
pandemic and effectively describe clinical characteristics and severity
of circulating viruses. Surveillance reported re-emergence of influenza
viruses with severe course and high fatality. Maintaining ARI
surveillance is essential to monitor respiratory viruses activity for
guiding clinical management and preventive and control measures.

Published: May 2022

Background: Multiple myeloma accounts for over 15% of hematological
malignancies. In attempt to tackle this malady, the FDA approved four
drugs in 2015 which has propagated further development of new
anti-multiple myeloma since. However, the health safety of these new
agents is still ill-defined. The aim of this study is to delineate the
cardiovascular adverse events of these drugs. Methods: We searched the
cardiac adverse events of the newly approved FDA drugs since 2015 using
the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Adverse Events Reporting System
database (FAERS). We calculated the reporting odds ratio (ROR) with 95%
confidence for four drugs that have the highest incidence of
cardiovascular adverse events. Results: Among the medications that have
approved for MM Between 2015-2020, four novel drugs showed the highest
incidence of cardiotoxicity. ROR (95% CI) for atrial fibrillation due
to elotuzumab, Ixazomib, daratumumab, and panobinostat compared to other
FAERS drugs was 5.8 (4.4-7.7), 1.9 (1.5-2.3), 4.8 (4.2-5.6), and 5.7
(4.1-8.1), respectively. The ROR (95% CI) for cardiac failure was 8.2
(6.4-10.5), 4.7 (4.1-5.4), 5.8 (4.9-6.7), and 5.6 (3.8-8.1) and ROR
(95% CI) for coronary disease was 2.7 (1.9-3.9), 2.7 (2.3-3.2), 2.3
(1.9-2.8), and 4.6 (3.2-6.6) due to elotuzumab, Ixazomib, daratumumab,
and panobinostat versus all other drugs in FAERS. Conclusions: Our
results demonstrated that the newly approved antimyeloma therapy
(elotuzumab, Ixazomib, daratumumab, panobinostat) are significantly
associated previously unknow cardiotoxicity. These results warrant
further studies and highlight the importance of considering the cardiac
history of patients with multiple myeloma when utilizing these novel
agents.

Career self-efficacy is one of the important factors that determine the success of students in carrying out their careers. Likewise with school counselors, measuring students' career self-efficacy will help them understand and develop strategies to develop students' career plans. For this reason, a valid and reliable career efficacy measurement tool is needed. This study aims to analyze the feasibility of student career success scale based on RASCH modeling. Participants in this study were 30 students who were involved as respondents in a 25-item career self-efficacy test. Rasch analysis was made by the WINSTEPS 3.73 program to evaluate the Indonesian version of the career self-efficacy scale by looking at the validity and reality of the item-person fit measure, Cronbach's alpha value, item-person separation index, dimensions, response patterns in the scalogram, and bias items according to gender. The results of this study indicate that of the 25 items there are 5 items that are out of fit or do not meet the RASCH measurement model. The reliability of the Cronbach Alpha scale is 0.96 or very high. The total gross variance described by the measure is 47%, which means this scale is able to predict students' career self-efficacy quite accurately. Overall, it can be concluded that the Indonesian version of the student career self-efficacy scale has good psychometric properties so that it can be used for assessment and research.

Researchers aim to find out how to strengthen and assist parents with strategies for children with Down syndrome to become independent. The method used is qualitative—the procedure used for data collection by observation, interviews, and documentation. Furthermore, the data were analyzed using a data reduction model, data presentation, and verification. The resource persons for this study were ten parents with Down Syndrome children and servants of God involved in pastoral care for families with Down Syndrome children in Jakarta. The results showed that the community for parents with Down Syndrome children is essential because it provides reinforcement and support in mentoring children with down syndrome. After attending formal and informal therapy, Down syndrome children have significant developments that enable DS children to be independent. The primary model of parental assistance is holistically providing whole love and providing therapies, especially music and spiritual therapy.
The Concept of Paul's Katallage and Hilasmos: Internalization Through Group Counseling for Millennials
Authors: Hasiholan Anggi Maringan , Setyobekti Andreas Budi , Trisna Robert Paul
Published: May 2022

The Atonement wrought by Jesus Christ is the foundation of the Christian faith that must be held and believed to gain one's salvation. Paul calls this concept with two words Katallage and Hilasmos which means restoring the relationship between God and sinful man to live again to the design that God has ordained. However, this concept rarely gets attention because Christians focus more on Justification. In addition, the atonement made by Jesus is also tricky for the millennial generation to accept in this postmodern era because of the relativism and pluralism spirit contained in it. That is why it is necessary to build the concept of atonement that Jesus did and implement it to the youth. The research method used is a qualitative case study, namely the implementation to the youth of the Ministry of Refreshment, Bekasi. The results showed that the atonement made by Jesus brought a mandate to the younger generation of the Refresh Ministry to glorify God and spread this atonement to others who have not reconciled. This value inculcation carries out a discipleship model that balances teaching and encounter.

Managing Smart City development using citizen feedback: transforming opinions into a multi-criteria tool for evaluation and validation of city policies
Authors: Burbayeva P. T. , Mendybayev B. K.
Published: May 2022

In the last decade, research in the field of smart cities has expanded from purely technological aspects to include the areas of management development, urban planning and social sciences. In general, the discussion focuses on how the use of technology contributes to the development of the city, urban space and improving the quality of decisions[1].

The article offers a tool to enrich the urban development management system. It is argued that by developing appropriate scales, subjective views and perceptions of the citizen can be objectivized and, therefore, are very useful for managers and politicians.

In this paper, the development process is carried out in several stages, using inductive and deductive methods. Following focus groups and interviewing representatives of the city authorities, a survey was conducted with the participation of almost a thousand city inhabitants from all Kazakhstan regions.  The data were analyzed using IBM SPSS 24 and AMOS 20 tools.

The study proposes a scale that includes statements structured in five identified dimensions: willingness to interact, expectation of improvements, willingness to use, concern about efficiency, concern about abuse. As the methodology is disclosed, important theoretical and managerial implications are discussed, the need for information flow management in the interests of participants in the implementation of Smart City is justified.

Published: May 2022

Introduction

In recent years, interest in human papillomavirus infections as a causative factor in epithelial cancer development has grown. Literature indicates that HPV involvement in malignant transformations in oral mucosa can vary significantly, from 0 up to 87%. The aim of our study was to detect the prevalence of salivary HPV infection among generally healthy adults.

Materials and Methods

The examination involved 139 patients, from whom 139 whole, 1.5ml saliva samples were obtained. HPV DNA was detected by the nested PCR technique. To visualize the PCR products electrophoresis reactions were carried out.

Results

Sample analysis showed that DNA for HPV was detected in 14 patients: 11 positive results were obtained from men, and 3 from women. This yields a high infection rate: 10.07%.

Conclusions

The HPV prevalence in the male group was more than twice as high as in the female group. Also, subclinical oral HPV infection was detected more frequently in young (19–39 years old) and older (=>60 years old) adults.

Published: May 2022

The work explores methods and develops aids to improve a pilot flight training level using Full Flight Simulators. It examines their didactic advantages over real helicopters by implementing on-board intelligent decision support systems (IDSS). These simulation programs monitor actions of learner, find the best ways to correct errors and generate appropriate instructions. The training is carried out by reference point methods while the helicopter flight dynamics model simulates a flight and helps an instructor in parallel. Sufficiently simple and accurate model of helicopter flight dynamics was selected and tested to assess the proposed methods and aids. Our analysis introduces a functional structure of IDSS as an adaptive control system with a reference model. We further conducted a study on developing models, methods and means of automatic analysis, forecasting, optimization and correction of actions. Combining single-criteria conditional and vector optimization methods, we found out optimal flight parameters. The research findings revealed that the chosen optimization method requires too many system resources for the optimal solution to be found in a short time. The study thereby comes up with applying ANNs to solve this problem.

The prevalence of the inclusion or substitution of porcine and its derivatives in foods by imprudent food manufacturers accentuated the need for a sensitive and specific method to detect porcine DNA. This work aimed to develop and validate an EvaGreen dye-based quantitative real-time (qPCR) assay for porcine DNA analysis. The primer set used in this work targets a 95-bp fragment of the porcine cytochrome b gene. Application of the assay to dilutions of porcine genomic DNA showed that the assay is sensitive down to 10 pg/μL of porcine DNA and the detection limit, under binary admixture conditions, was 0.001%. A correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.998 and PCR efficiency of 101.6% over the dynamic range from 10 to 10000 pg/μL indicated that the assay has high linearity and efficiency. The method’s specificity towards porcine was revealed by the amplification profile, which only displayed an amplification signal for porcine DNA. These findings suggest that the developed assay is sensitive, specific, and rapid. In conclusion, the assay can be used as an alternative method to detect and quantify porcine DNA in raw and processed food products.

Studies in the literature indicate that while tire crumb rubber can be added to concrete to replace some natural aggregates, steel fibers need to be introduced to overcome the compromise in the mechanical properties of concrete, especially compressive and tensile strength, that would be caused due to the addition of tire crumb rubber exclusively. In the present study, a minimum content of steel fibers has been added to mitigate the negative impact of addition of tire rubber fibers on the mechanical properties of concrete. The tire rubber fibers content was varied from 1% to 3% by volume whereas steel fibers were added from 0.1% to 0.3% by volume only. In this way, the effectiveness of hybridized concrete using tire rubber and steel fibers was evaluated based on its mechanical properties. The results revealed that inclusion of steel fibers overcame the reduction in strength and toughness of concrete to which tire rubber fibers have been added. Concrete with 2% tire rubber fibers and 0.2% steel fibers showed better mechanical performance in terms of compressive strength (10%), split tensile (14.7%), flexural strength (6.6%), and flexural toughness indices (

Published: May 2022

In today’s time, construction is the main key for development of any nation, but land resources are getting deplete. Thus, construction on compressible soil is left as a choice. Stone columns or granular piles (GPs) are broadly used to advance the bearing capacity of crummy ground and lessen the displacement of constructionserected on them. GP is the most efficient and cheap for ground improvement. Analysis of single partially strengthened (SPS) floating granular piled raft is presented in this paper in terms of several normalized aspects like vertical and radial displacement impact factors, settlement impact factor (SIF) for any depth, the normalized GP–soil interface shear and radial stresses, the load ratio, i.e., the percentage of the load taken by the GP and raft to the total load, and the normalized contact pressure distribution below the raft, which are evaluated for SPS floating granular piled raft. The SIF for top of GP is noticed to decline with the surge in the values of the strengthening parameters. The interfacial shear stresses get reorganized along the length of the GP.

Published: May 2022

Penelitian ini dilatarbelakangi fenomena maraknya tayangan dengan tema pelakor dalam program televisi. Pelakor merupakan istilah baru di Indonesia yang merupakan kependekan dari perebut (le)laki orang. Sebelumnya pernah dikenal istilah ‘selingkuhan’, ‘simpanan’, atau ‘wanita idaman lain’ dengan makna yang hampir sama. Fenomena memperlakukan pelakor dengan kekerasan verbal menjadi tayangan yang paling banyak diminati pemirsa televisi khususnya perempuan. Salah satunya adalah sinetron ‘Orang Ketiga’ yang ditayangkan oleh stasiun televisi SCTV. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan tentang adanya kekerasan verbal dalam sinetron ‘Orang Ketiga’ yang ditayangkan oleh stasiun televisi SCTV. Dalam beberapa episode, kekerasan verbal sering ditujukan kepada pelakor. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberi informasi kepada penonton dan pembuat program televisi tentang makna yang terkandung dalam dialog yang mengandung kekerasan verbal. Penelitian ini juga diharapkan dapat menjadi masukan bagi regulator yang mengawasi isi siaran tentang adanya kekerasan verbal dalam tayangan televisi. Penelitian kualitatif dengan metode analisis semiotika Roland Barthes ini berfokus pada makna denotasi, konotasi, dan mitos kekerasan verbal yang terdapat dalam sinetron ‘Orang Ketiga’. Hasil penelitian menunjukan terdapat makna denotasi berupa kata perebut, perusak, penghancur, menjadikan orang lain gila, pengambil hak orang, tidak punya hati, serta murahan. Makna konotasi dan mitos dalam sinetron ini mengandung makna yang tidak membangun berupa niat yang tidak baik, hati yang tidak baik, otak yang tidak normal, tidak memiliki harga diri, dan tidak memiliki perasaan layaknya manusia. Bentuk kekerasan verbal berupa kata-kata memaki, membentak, mengancam, mengejek, melecehkan, menjelekan, menyudutkan, membuat malu dan menghina.
