Background- Coronavirus disease (Covid-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 has affected more than 200 countries, creating havoc throughout the world. The accelerated development of the Covid-19 vaccine is thus vital development which created a milestone in the field of health. Vaccine hesitancy among the medical students and professionals might be a significant obstacles in implementing the vaccination drive programme. Objectives: 1) To assess the perception of medical students regarding COVID-19 vaccine. 2) To estimate the acceptability of COVID-19 vaccine among medical students of VIMSAR, Burla. 3) To determine the association of various factors with the perceptions and acceptability of COVID-19.Methodology: It was a cross-sectional study conducted for a period of 3months i.e August-October 2022 among the MBBS students of VIMSAR, Burla. The total sample size was 847. Results: 99.4%. of the students accepted Covid-19 as a fatal disease & almost all of the students had heard and know about COVID-19 vaccine but 93.3% among them think the vaccine will prevent the disease and build the immunity but 77.4% accept the vaccine to be safe and effective. Social media(94.3%) and news channel(94.6%) were the most common source of information for them. Covid-19 vaccine was taken by 728(86%) of students. Regarding the adverse events following immunisation only 34.4% of the students have heard it.. The 1st year batch students had least perception & acceptability on COVID-19 vaccine whereas maximum was seen among the final year students . The association between the various batches of MBBS students with the perception & acceptability on COVID-19 was found to be significant with chi-square value 123.4981 & 109.1895 respectively with P=0.001.Conclusion- Even though perception and acceptability about COVID-19 vaccine among the students is good but regarding the adverse events following immunisation many are unaware and are having lots of apprehension which could be dealt with proper sensitisation meetings.

Published: June 2023

The company must have a unique strategy to help grow its business. One of the ways to strengthen the company's business is by estimating the company's profit. This is because with an estimated profit, the company can manage the transactions made. Some companies still use a manual profit determination process that requires several steps. Processes that are carried out manually result in a long time, which can cause delays in completing tasks and results that are less accurate than desired. Multiple linear regression is an algorithm used to determine the relationship between the dependent variable and at least two independent variables. This algorithm is a type of supervised learning algorithm that develops estimation models based on input data. The use of this algorithm is included in part of machine learning. Implementation of machine learning to calculate company profit estimates using the Python programming language. From the estimation results using multiple linear regression and Python programming, the result is that multiple linear regression can be utilized or used to predict company profits. 98% of Profit is influenced by independent factors, namely R&D Spend and Marketing Spend, while the remaining 2% is influenced by variables that are not included in this calculation.

"To date, the potential for addressing hybrid threats through a strong security culture remains underdeveloped, while the nation-wide responses are still lacking clarity and comprehensiveness. The present paper presents the link between a wide range of emerging threats that are currently challenging countries and institutions and the potential of mitigating such issues through security culture while building and consolidating a resilient national system. Continuously under the threshold of formally declaring warfare, hybrid threats have been demonstrating the futility of responses implicating only institutions with responsibilities in the fields of security and defence. Subsequently, we argue that cultivating measures, procedures and good practices for boosting security culture through a whole-of-government approach would ensure a useful framework for tackling such challenges, while also aiming for a joint civilian-military response. The hybrid toolbox needs to be pre-empted by active and passive measures, the ability of societies and institutions to bounce back from shocks being sustained by both resilience and robust measures that would enhance civil and military preparedness. By assessing the rise of hybrid threats and their position in the Russian strategic thinking and comparing the Western doctrines mirroring these challenges, we obtain an overview on the differences in concept and operations that are currently lacking clarity. Considering that national vulnerabilities have now global implications, sovereign action must be effectively completed by alliances and partnerships, while also keeping in mind the made-to-measure hybrid actions with specific and narrow targets. Through examining the components of hybrid and information warfare, we stress the fact that it is high time to have and use a unified vocabulary in support of building a common security culture, necessary for this ever-changing security landscape."

"In military structures, the leader has always been at the forefront of organising and carrying out specific actions with the aim of increasing the organisation’s efficiency and effectiveness. Thus, the military organisation’s efficiency and effectiveness are the effects of leaders’ ability to react to disturbances, ensuring optimal orientation of those in command, and finding optimal answers to the questions “how” and “what” is to be done so that the best organisational course of action could be achieved. In this article we consider it appropriate to analyse emotional intelligence, how it influences military leadership, how an optimal affective environment influences the military actions, and to answer the question: Do military leaders need emotional intelligence?"

It is reported by various media sources that, since the beginning of the Syrian war in 2011, more than 11.5% of Syria’s population has been wounded or killed. The scarcity of war resources forced the belligerents of the Syrian civil war to use many improvised weapons among which the chemical barrel bombs hold the headlines. Although the exact number of casualties produced by chemical weapons in Syria is unknown, reportedly a few thousand were killed or intoxicated. This article seeks to determine the efficiency of improvised chemical weapons used in Syria and compare them with the specially designed ones. For comparison, the military standards are to be used and the conclusion will show if the media is exaggerating or the humanity faces a new type of chemical warfare.

Published: June 2023

This study highlights how military-press relations evolved in the 19th century towards institutionalising press accreditation during the armed conflicts with the aim of gaining the public trust and promoting the reputation of military organisations by managing the information release to audiences. A special focus is on the nascent press accreditation practices used by the military when interacting with correspondents sent by European and North American publications to cover, first-hand, the Eastern Question events unfolding on the battlefields of the Russo-Turkish War (1877-1878), in which Romania fought to win its national independence. The study reveals the crystallisation of Public Relations techniques and procedures in wartime – press officers’ appointment, written regulations on the terms and conditions for the press accreditation, ground rules for correspondents’ access to press briefings, interviews and documentation activities at combat units as members of press pools or as embedded journalists. These practices are enshrined nowadays in the Public Relations policies on media relations, and their emergence deserves better recognition in the history of communication sciences.

Smallholder farmers are usually susceptible to the effects of climatic variations. Most of these farmers, their agricultural activities are greatly rainfall dependent and compounded by their acute poverty, poor infrastructural and technological advancement. This study sought to assess the contribution of Climate Smart Agricultural strategies on adaptation to climate change among small holder farmers in Nyaribari Chache Sub-County, Kisii County. A household survey was conducted for collection of primary data. Ten administrative sub-locations were randomly sampled for the study. Twenty households were randomly sampled from each sub-location to make a sample size of 200 households. Questionnaires, interviews and focused group discussions were administered to collect data on contributions of Climate Smart Agricultural strategies to adapt to climate change among small holder farmers in Nyaribari Chache Sub-County, Kisii County. Both descriptive and inferential analysis were used to analyze data collected. Study findings indicated that crop diversification, use of different crop cultivars, crop rotation and mixed cropping were the primary adaptation approaches employed in the study area. CSAP Adopted by Smallholder Farmers was statistically significant (p<0.005). Determinants of smallholder farmers’ choice of CSAP on adaptation to climatic variations had a significant impact on embracing of CSAP (p<0.005). Access to credit facilities, inadequate extension facilities, low education levels, scanty weather and climate statistics were main hurdles impacting on implementation of CSAP. Therefore, in order to check the susceptibility of smallholder farmers to effects of weather or climate erraticism and variations, stakeholders should heighten exposure of farmers to extension services and prompt distribution of climate variations data for informed decision making.

There are represented results of Krasnoyarskiy subaqueous landslide researches in this paper. Landslide is located at subaqueous part of delta of the Selenga river. A multidisciplinary approach was applied to the study of the landslide, including seismo-acoustic, lithological, gas-geochemical and geotechnical studies. Obtained data from landslide and surrounding soils allowed to put forward a hypothesis, whereby a key factor to landslide origin was been high gas saturation of the soils and reason of landslide was an earthquake. The proposed approach to the studying of bottom soils in lakes and seas can be applied both in assessing their stability and in searching for focus fluid discharging zones at the bottom in areas associated with hydrocarbon deposits in the sedimentary section. Also, approach can be applied in mapping of permafrost melting in Arctic region offshore, where gases are often accumulating below it.

Design bond stress parameters for rock anchors in Brisbane
Authors:   EDG Consulting Pty Ltd, Hackney Greg , Sadeghi Mohsen , Neller Stephanie
Published: June 2023

Little published information is available on bond stress parameters at the grout-ground interface for the design of ground anchors within Brisbane rocks. In the absence of data, a designer will typically fall back to ‘universal’ correlations with measurable parameters such as Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) or descriptions of rock type to nominate design bond stress values. In doing so, there is often little understanding of the limitations of such correlations or how applicable those correlations are for the rocks encountered within the local region. A study of Proof Test data from testing of sacrificial ground anchors constructed within materials from the Brisbane Tuff and Neranleigh Fernvale Beds Stratigraphic Units for an infrastructure project in Brisbane has been carried out to consider bond stress values at the grout-ground interface. Materials within the bond zone of ground anchors constructed in Brisbane Tuff and Neranleigh Fernvale Beds units have been classified into different rock units based on rock substance strength and Geological Strength Index. Details of anchor construction and testing procedures are presented, together with the adopted approach to test interpretation. Data from Proof Testing of ground anchors bonded into these materials is then interpreted and evaluated for each unit, with relationships developed for each rock type for ultimate and yield bond stress values at the grout-ground interface as a function of rock substance strength (UCS) and rock mass strength (based on Hoek and Brown,2018). For both rock types, grout-ground interface bond stresses increase with rock strength and quality, with better correlations evident based on rock mass strength than for UCS data. Comparisons of the interpreted bond stress relationships based on UCS are made for both rock types to published information for ground anchors and shaft adhesion parameters for cast-in-situ piles. Suggestions are made for amendments to the Proof Anchor test method to reduce the potential for premature termination of the test and consequent underestimation of the bond stress, and to obtain consistency between Proof and Production test methods.

Authors: Frade Ana , Pinto Vanda , D'Espiney Luísa
Published: June 2023

Introduction: Broca’s aphasia, a non-fluent aphasia, is a frustrating condition with extensive psychological, familial, and social impact. The reports of people who have already recovered or can express themselves are essential to increasing knowledge about the experience of living with Broca’s aphasia. A-FROM is a framework designed to organize thinking about the impact of living with aphasia and includes four key domains: Communication and language environment; Language and related impairments; Personal identity, attitudes and feelings, and Participation in life situations. Nursing intervention is central to optimizing recovery and positively influencing the experience of successfully living with this clinical condition. Objective: To map scientific evidence about the experience of people who lived through a period of Broca’s aphasia. Methods: A Scoping Review was performed following the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology. The review was based on the research question, "How does the person report the experience of having lived through a period of Broca’s aphasia?", formulated according to the PCC strategy. The search was carried out in MEDLINE®, CINAHL®, Psychology and Behavioral Sciences Collection, and Scopus electronic databases in November 2022. Articles were selected based on the eligibility criteria. The review followed the PRISMA-ScR EQUATOR checklist. Results: Seventeen articles published between 1961 and 2022 were included. Data obtained were grouped according to the key domains of the A-FROM tool. Information related to Personal identity, attitudes and feelings, and Participation in life situations were the most cited, followed by Language and related impairments and Communication and language environment. Conclusion: It was identified that health professionals, therapeutic interventions, spirituality, hope, context, interactions, and psychosocial factors influence the experience of Broca’s aphasia. It is essential to continue investigating how people report the experience of having lived through a period of Broca’s aphasia to improve the quality of care and people's quality of life.

What Is Experimental Research in the Philosophy of Language and Epistemology?
Authors: Barash Raisa E. , Kusliy Petr S. ,   Institute of Philosophy, Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: June 2023

Philosophy is an abstract theoretical discipline. However, a new trend that develops experimental methods in philosophical research has recently been gaining popularity extending to the fields of philosophical research that have not seen experimental methods earlier. This article addresses the question of whether it is possible to investigate philosophical questions with empirical methods. Two areas of research are considered – philosophy of language and semantics and epistemology. In these subfields of philosophy, the application of experimental methods has recently lead to a noticeable progress. Empirical methods are justified in those disciplines in which arguments in favor of a particular theory are based on the study of our intuitions. Experiments only serve to obtain more objective representations of our intuitions, and philosophical argumentation is built further based on these intuitions. The authors argue that the use of experimental methods in semantics is compatible with anti-psychologism about meaning. The latter point is particularly controversial because linguistic intuitions or intuitions about the meaning have often been viewed as something that speakers have clear cognitive access to. However, when experimental research (even when it is a collection of controlled judgments) shows results that are different from what the field has been previously assuming, a revision is called for. The authors review several cases of such refutations calling for further revisions and argue that such experimental work helps arguments in philosophy of language and epistemology gain more sound ground with respect to the empirical data that they build on. In philosophy of language and theoretical linguistics, the cases explored in this article relate to the differences between languages with and without articles and to the predictions about the availability of certain interpretations of such expressions or lack thereof. It is further shown how a similar method of identifying the existent or non-existent interpretations was used in the studies of the meaning of “most”. In epistemology, the article discusses the results of some recent experimental work relating to the knowledge ascriptions. The speakers’ intuitions about the famous Barn-examples have recently been shown to diverge from what philosophers have claimed, building their far-reaching arguments on the data that was arguably incorrect.
Historical and Philosophical Reconstruction of the Discussion on Verifiability at the Meeting of the Aristotelian Society
Authors: Ogleznev Vitaly V. ,   Institute of Philosophy, Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: June 2023

The article presents a detailed consideration of the arguments from the symposium “Verifiability”, which was held on July 14, 1945 in London, proposed by Scottish philosopher and theologian Donald MacKinnon, Austrian logician and mathematician Friedrich Waismann and English logician and philosopher of science William Kneale. MacKinnon’s approach to verifiability was based on the metaphysics of fact, while Waismann and Kneale’s approach was based on the semantic specificity of empirical concepts (“open texture” and context of use) and on the truth-values of empirical propositions. The symposium in question is interesting primarily because it is the last meaningful discussion on the concept of verifiability in the form in which it was understood by the Vienna Circle. Despite the fact that, in the coming years, this concept received a completely different interpretation, which stands away from the original source, the 1945 symposium could be rightfully treated as a canonical discussion on verifiability in the sense that nothing like this has ever happened in the philosophy after.
O “ofendido” no artigo 387 do Código de Processo Penal e o direito ambiental
Authors: Monnerat Carlos Fonseca
Published: June 2023

O objetivo do presente estudo é examinar, ao teor da nova redação do inciso IV do artigo 387 do Código de Processo Penal, quem é o “ofendido” ali mencionado, em especial quem é o ofendido nos crimes ambientais. O método utilizado foi o de pesquisa bibliográfica e inferência tendo como base os institutos envolvidos. Após análise, ficou claro que o “ofendido” é aquele que é vitimado por consequência do delito praticado. Também ficou evidente que, em se tratando de delito ambiental, há duas espécies de ofendidos, os vitimados diretos e a coletividade, que vê seus direitos difusos sofrerem dano. O inciso IV do artigo 387 do Código de Processo Penal permite fixação de valor de reparação civil na sentença penal condenatória. Em se tratando de delito ambiental, essa reparação deve aquinhoar os indivíduos e a coletividade. O valor devido à coletividade deve ser destinado a Fundo de Reparação e Preservação Ambiental

Published: June 2023

Fibrinogen deficiencies in neonates can lead to bleeding complications. In this report, we describe a case of congenital afibrinogenemia in a newborn with critical pulmonary stenosis who presented with bilateral cephalohematomas after an uncomplicated delivery. The initial use of cryoprecipitate was followed by administration of fibrinogen concentrate. We estimated a half-life of 24 to 48 hours with the concentrate product. This patient received fibrinogen replacement and had a subsequent successful cardiac repair. The drug's shorter half-life in this neonate contrasts with prior reports of longer half-life in older patients and is important to note in treating future neonatal patients with this diagnosis.

Authors: González Ávila Darwin Irne Ney , Garzón Salazar Diana Paola , Sánchez Castillo Verenice
Published: June 2023

Tourism is the predominant economic activity in the municipality of Leticia (Amazonas) since the natural potential of the territory has allowed it to consolidate itself as an international attraction. However, contradictorily, companies engaged in this activity have high closure rates. The objective of the investigative exercise was to characterize the factors that led to the closure of companies in the tourism sector in the municipality of Leticia. The study sought to know the leading causes of this phenomenon and the strategies developed by government entities to contribute to strengthening the sector. For this purpose, a mixed design of the nested type of dominant model (QUAN-which) in terms of the routes, and of a sequential kind, in terms of the procedure, which was executed in three stages, was implemented. Qualitative and quantitative instruments, such as the survey, documentary analysis and interview, were applied. The study found human and economic factors to be the main factors involved. Likewise, it evidenced the joint work of government entities and companies in favor of strengthening the sector. The main difficulties can be seen in the loss of interest in the business; family and personal problems: the change in the city of residence; the prioritization of other projects and activities; lack of budget; economic losses, and unfair competition in different areas.

Published: June 2023

Mental and behavioral disorders are common around the world. Pharmacotherapy, psychotherapy, and psychosocial rehabilitation are three treatment components for these disorders. Drug therapy is an essential part of the comprehensive treatment of these diseases. Their use pattern in psychiatric practice has changed dramatically in recent years. Mental disorders require long-term treatment. Therefore, it is crucial to study the prescribing practices of these groups of drugs. This study aims to assess drug use patterns using the WHO/INRUD Core Prescribing Indicators. Patients of both genders and ages with mental illness and prescription psychiatric drugs were evaluated from the outpatient department of the Psychiatry Unit (OPD). The prescription data were collected and analyzed using the indicators recommended by the WHO/INRUD. The data were analyzed using Microsoft Excel-2007. The percentage and average values of the variables were compared. A total of 655 prescriptions were analyzed. Male patients (54.96%) were more than women (45.04%). The morbidity profile included schizophrenia (37.86%), alcohol use disorder (18.78%), major depressive disorder (11.30%), anxiety disorder (10.23%), bipolar disorder (4.88%), and others (16.95%). The newer antipsychotic were the most commonly prescribed drugs (particularly olanzapine), along with a central anticholinergic (trihexyphenidyl) and a benzodiazepine (lorazepam). The percentage of drugs prescribed with generic names was 39.80%, and that of drugs prescribed by NLEM was 48.49%. The average number of drugs prescribed per prescription was 2.58. This study's Index of Rational Prescribing (IRDP) was 3.87, whereas the optimal score was 5. Prescriptions were complete, and principles of rational prescribing were followed, except for a low generic prescribing rate.

We propose a method for synthesizing cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) images with plausible heart pathologies and realistic appearances for the purpose of generating labeled data for the application of supervised deep-learning (DL) training. The image synthesis consists of label deformation and label-to-image translation tasks. The former is achieved via latent space interpolation in a VAE model, while the latter is accomplished via a label-conditional GAN model. We devise three approaches for label manipulation in the latent space of the trained VAE model; i) intra-subject synthesis aiming to interpolate the intermediate slices of a subject to increase the through-plane resolution, ii) inter-subject synthesis aiming to interpolate the geometry and appearance of intermediate images between two dissimilar subjects acquired with different scanner vendors, and iii) pathology synthesis aiming to synthesize a series of pseudo-pathological synthetic subjects with characteristics of a desired heart disease. Furthermore, we propose to model the relationship between 2D slices in the latent space of the VAE prior to reconstruction for generating 3D-consistent subjects from stacking up 2D slice-by-slice generations. We demonstrate that such an approach could provide a solution to diversify and enrich an available database of cardiac MR images and to pave the way for the development of generalizable DL-based image analysis algorithms. We quantitatively evaluate the quality of the synthesized data in an augmentation scenario to achieve generalization and robustness to multi-vendor and multi-disease data for image segmentation.

Sagittal plane deformity can be defined as a deviation from the normal curvature of the spine in the sagittal plane. This deformity can distort the natural shape of the spine and cause posture problems. In recent years, effects such as reduced activity in daily life, increased time spent in front of computers and mobile phones, and inactivity during the recent pandemic have also led to a significant increase in sagittal plane deformity. In this study, 16 healthy adolescents and 16 adolescents with sagittal plane deformity participated. Surface EMG (sEMG) recordings were obtained from thoracal kyphosis subjects and lumbar lordosis subjects, commonly seen in patients with sagittal plane deformity (SPD), and from healthy subjects. After filtering the raw sEMG data, wavelet packet transform analysis was performed. The energy values of the wavelet packets corresponding to the low and high frequency components have been calculated. These energy values were statistically analysed using the Mann-Whitney U test to determine muscle differences between SPD subjects and healthy subjects. This statistical analysis identified the channels with significant differences between SPD subjects and healthy subjects. Channels with a statistical significance level of p<0.05 were included. When the muscle activation of these channels was compared, higher activity was found in SPD subjects, while in some movements activation was found in different channels in SPD subjects and healthy subjects. SPD subjects showed more muscle activity than healthy subjects and spent more energy to increase the quality of movements and to perform them with the correct muscle dynamics. It has been observed that SPD subjects develop compensations from different muscle regions in order to perform movements correctly due to postural changes. In healthy subjects, it was observed that movements were completed in accordance with the kinematics of the movement and that maximum movement quality was observed with less energy.

Challenges to Health Information Dissemination in Tanzania and the Opportunities Provided by Chatbot in Swahili Language
Authors:   University of Eswatini, Shamsudeen A Sanni , Rajabu Neema ,   Kampala International University
Published: June 2023

To examine challenges to health-literacy with a focus on non-communicable diseases (NCDs) in Tanzania and to develop a Chatbot for NCDs in Swahili language. Objective: To examine the challenges of health information dissemination in Tanzania; to analyse the opportunities offered by Chatbot to address the challenges of health information dissemination in Tanzania; to assess the readiness of users on the acceptance of an interactive Chatbot for NCDs in Swahili Language. Method: Survey was conducted amongst a sample of 100 participants at Wazo ward, Dares-Salam; Chatbot was designed in Swahili and integrated into Facebook Messenger to eliminate the cost of the internet from the end-users. Results: Challenges to health-literacy includes: inaccurate, inconsistent, untrustworthy, unreliable, untimely, contradictory, and confusing information; popular media such as TV programs and the Internet presents no opportunity for feedback, requests, or clarifications. Others are language barrier; high cost of internet, poor connectivity, the ratio of healthcare providers to patients, poverty, and traditional beliefs. There is a general acceptance of receiving health information through messaging apps. Conclusions: Chatbot for NCDs in Swahili language ‘afyaBot' could be strategic in affording Tanzanians access to adequate and timely information on NCDs, improve health-literacy, and promoting good health. Stakeholders and public policymakers in the health sector will find the study useful.
Students’ Perceived Ethical integrity and quality issues with E-learning in Nigerian Tertiary Education

Published: June 2023

Our society is witnessing a dramatic change which is also significantly impacting both our social and economic spheres of life, most especially the education sector. The current Covid-19 pandemic has imposed a change in the way curriculum-based education is currently been run. Citadels of learning, the world over have been forced to either adapt or wait out the storm. Most institutions have however chosen the former option by switching all academic activities to online platforms. This has fundamentally challenged the way learning and education are being delivered in a disruptive manner. This study, therefore, seeks to gain an insight into the perception of third and final year undergraduates students in Nigerian universities, on the overall impact of the change from traditional learning to e-learning. Data was gathered via questioners and analyzed. The result shows that the online mode of learning has indeed had a marginal impact on the overall ethical integrity concerning the dissemination of course contents.

In this paper, the health implications of electronic wastes (E-Wastes) on the inhabitants of the University site at AgoIwoye, Ogun State South Western Nigeria were reported. The main goal of this study was to evaluate heavy metals concentrations in the soil around e-wastes dumpsite in soil and water samples at Olabisi Onabanjo University, Ago-Iwoye Ogun State. The heavy metal concentrations in soil and water around the e-waste dumpsites were measured and compared with international standard limits. The values recorded for soil and water were below the recommended safety limit. This is an indication that the soil and water of Olabisi Onabanjo University can be used for drinking, agricultural purposes, and construction of buildings without causing any health hazard. The results of this study revealed that the presence of heavy metals in water was not significant and in the order of increased magnitude Cd < As < Ni < Co < Zn < Pb < Cr < Cu. However, care must be taken to face the challenges in the future for health safety.
