Authors: Лугова Вікторія , Лебединська Олена , Чуркін Андрій
Published: May 2023

Метою статті є дослідження теоретичних засад та формулювання рекомендацій щодо формування системи винагородження як складової механізму мотивації персоналу підприємства. Доведено, що система винагородження є важливою складовою механізму мотивації, яка забезпечує активне залучення персоналу та підвищення ефективності його діяльності. Визначено сутність та зміст системи винагородження персоналу, яка розглядається як сукупність матеріальних, і нематеріальних винагород, які забезпечують формування та розвиток конкурентоздатного, мотивованого на досягнення цілей підприємства персоналу. Така система має базуватися на сукупності наукових принципів та враховувати наукові доробки, які знайшли своє відображення у сучасних змістовних та процесних теоріях мотивації. Система винагородження буде ефективною за умови врахування актуальних потреб працівників та рівня їх задоволеності. Тобто система винагородження має бути заснована на використанні резервів мотиваційного впливу.
УПРАВЛІНСЬКИЙ ОБЛІК НА ПІДПРИЄМСТВАХ УКРАЇНИ В УМОВАХ КРИЗОВИХ ЯВИЩ

Важкість реалізації господарських процесів в умовах пост-пандемії та воєнного стану зумовлюють реорганізацію системи управління вітчизняними підприємствами, зокрема у частині роботи із інформацією, яка набуває все більшої цінності. Визначено, що саме управлінський облік є інструментом, що впорядковує збір, обробку, впорядкування основної виробничо-господарської, фінансової інформації, а також забезпечує її передачу у подальше користування. Доведено, що в умовах кризи, тенденції, виявлені в процесі обробки інформаційних даних, забезпечують завчасну реакцію на процеси, що належать до виробничо-господарської діяльності суб’єкту підприємництва та допомагають знизити ризик настання його фінансової дестабілізації, зниження стійкості тощо. Таким чином, управлінський облік в умовах глобальної кризи стає потужним інструментом впливу на діяльність підприємства, а завчасно сформовані та прийняті на його основі рішення відіграють ключову роль не лише в контексті підтримки бізнес-активності, а і збереження господарюючого суб’єкта як учасника ринкових відносин. Ця робота є оригінальним дослідження тенденцій розвитку та використання управлінського обліку на підприємствах України, більшість із яких опинились у важкому становищі в силу наявних кризових явищ. Дослідження проблематики здійснювалось завдяки застосуванню методів порівняння (для визначення основних тенденцій розвитку управлінського обліку, його залежності від впливу негативних факторів), абстракції, аналізу та узагальнення (для здійснення теоретичних узагальнень та висновків про вплив кризових явищ на стан та перспективи управлінського обліку як самостійного вектора управлінської роботи на підприємстві). В ході дослідження було систематизовано ключові дефініції «управлінського обліку», стан його розвитку та основи реалізації. Авторами було узагальнено особливості використання управлінського обліку на підприємствах України в умовах актуальної кризи, його важливість в контексті антикризового управління та збереження активності вітчизняних суб’єктів бізнес-середовища.

ГЕНЕЗИС ПРАВОВОГО РЕГУЛЮВАННЯ АДМІНІСТРАТИВНО-ПРАВОВИХ ЗАСАД ПРОТИДІЇ МИТНИМ ПРАВОПОРУШЕННЯМ
Authors: Полянська Єлизавета
Published: May 2023

В статті досліджено історико-правові засади регулювання протидії митним правопорушенням. Розкрито правову природу поняття митного правопорушення та впливу порушень у митній сфері на нормальне функціонування державного апарату, що зумовлює у держави обов’язок боротьби із цими правопорушеннями та підготовки адміністративно-правових засад протидії митним правопорушенням. Оскільки без належного розуміння особливостей митних правопорушень не можливо побудувати систему протидії. Адміністративна відповідальність за митні правопорушення регулюється Митним кодексом України. Проте, із розвитком суспільних відносин, зокрема митних відносин застосування суто заходів адміністративної відповідальності вичерпує себе, як засади протидії митним правопорушенням. Встановлено, що у процесі розвитку суспільства постає потреба у адміністративному регулюванні попередження вчинення митних правопорушень, тобто профілактична та превентивна функція адміністративно-правових заходів, на що також впливає зарубіжний та міжнародний досвід.

Courting Victims: Exploring the Legal Framing of Exploitation in Human Trafficking Cases
Authors: Sibley Marcus A. , van der Meulen Emily
Published: May 2023

This article examines how exploitation informs judicial interpretations of human trafficking in Canadian criminal cases. While socio-legal and popular notions of trafficking often suggest that forced movement into a decidedly exploitative labour context is required, our analysis of key appellate cases and constitutional challenges reveals that actual exploitation is not a necessary element of the offence. Instead, the trafficking in persons provision criminalizes the intent to exploit, while requiring the court to adopt an “objective” assessment of whether a reasonable person in the complainant’s circumstances could potentially fear for their safety in the context of providing (sexual) labour. We argue that this objective standard contributes to a gendered hierarchy of legal knowledge and ultimately privileges the perceived masculinized rationality of the courts and legal actors while rendering the subjective experiences of complainants as less central to the prosecution of human trafficking.
The Limits of Rehabilitation and Recidivism Reduction: Rethinking the Evaluation of Arts Programming in Prisons
Authors: van der Meulen Emily , Omstead Jackie
Published: May 2023

Canadian prison-based arts and other programming are limited at best. Even the country’s Correctional Investigator, or prison-ombudsperson, has critiqued the lack of meaningful options in which prisoners can engage. Those programs that do exist tend to be focused on the logic of penal rehabilitation, with the end goal of reducing recidivism. In this article, we showcase the evaluation of a 9-week arts program in a women’s prison, the aim of which was to build community and foster artistic engagement, thus running counter to normative carceral logics. 
“That's why people don't call 911”: Ending routine police attendance at drug overdoses
Authors: van der Meulen Emily , Chu Sandra Ka Hon , Butler-McPhee Janet
Published: May 2023

Research has shown that police attendance and the corresponding threat of criminal charges are major deterrents to people seeking emergency medical assistance in the event of an overdose. In response to these barriers, Canada passed the Good Samaritan Drug Overdose Act in 2017, providing immunity from prosecution for simple drug possession to overdose victims or bystanders who phone 911. In theory, this should make people more comfortable seeking emergency supports, but in practice our research found that many remain hesitant because police continue to be routinely dispatched to the overdose site. Based on focus groups and surveys with 109 people who use drugs across Ontario, Canada, our findings show that the vast majority of participants have negative interactions with police, which discourages them from seeking medical assistance at future overdose incidents. Almost all questioned the necessity of dispatching law enforcement to a health emergency that requires medical intervention. As such, this commentary draws on the study's qualitative data to argue that ending routine police attendance at drug overdoses in Ontario would remove a major barrier to calling 911, and thus prevent the further, unnecessary loss of life in the ongoing overdose crisis.

 
Social service responses to human trafficking: the making of a public health problem
Authors: De Shalit Ann , van der Meulen Emily , Guta Adrian
Published: May 2023

Human trafficking has received considerable attention from policymakers, researchers and service providers globally, with resulting interventions often positioning trafficking as something that simply exists. Drawing on Bacchi’s ‘What’s the Problem Represented to be?’ approach, this article proposes that trafficking is continually made through efforts designed to eradicate it. We conducted 22 interviews with representatives from social service organisations funded by the government of Ontario, Canada, for anti-trafficking programming. These interviews provide insight into how trafficking is being represented and with what effects. Our findings suggest that organisational initiatives often rely on individualised health-related interventions, such as trauma-informed counselling and other mental health support, to address trafficking. In the process, various sex work activities are deemed ‘symptoms’ of trafficking, and perceived pathways to engaging in sex work (such as drug use/dependence, a history of trauma and low self-esteem) are produced as ‘causes’ or ‘risk factors’. We contend that by pathologising sex work and sex workers, organisations are employing a contradictory neoliberal paternalism to advance a public health representation of human trafficking that simultaneously responsibilises and disenfranchises purported victims.

 
Making Surveillance States: Transnational Histories
Authors: Heynen Robert , van der Meulen Emily
Published: May 2023

Making Surveillance States: Transnational Histories opens up new and exciting perspectives on how systems of state surveillance developed over the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Taking a transnational approach, the book challenges us to rethink the presumed novelty of contemporary surveillance practices, while developing critical analyses of the ways in which state surveillance has profoundly shaped the emergence of contemporary societies.

Contributors engage with a range of surveillance practices, including medical and disease surveillance, systems of documentation and identification, and policing and security. These approaches enable us to understand how surveillance has underpinned the emergence of modern states, sustained systems of state security, enabled practices of colonial rule, perpetuated racist and gendered forms of identification and classification, regulated and policed migration, shaped the eugenically inflected medicalization of disability and sexuality, and contained dissent. While surveillance is thus bound up with complex relations of power, it is also contested. Emerging from the book is a sense of how state actors understood and legitimized their own surveillance practices, as well as how these practices have been implemented in different times and places. At the same time, contributors explore the myriad ways in which these systems of surveillance have been resisted, challenged, and subverted.
Rebuttal to the Correctional Service of Canada's Response
Authors: van der Meulen Emily , Reece Rai , Chu Sandra Ka Hon
Published: May 2023

"Writing on behalf of the Correctional Service Canada (CSC), Jonathan Smith and Henry de Souza suggest that CSC provides a variety of services to manage and prevent blood-borne and sexually transmitted infections. What they neglect to explain, however, is why the federal prison service has yet to implement prison needle and syringe programs (PNSPs) - contrary to over two decades of widely accepted evidence that these programs are effective and safe. PNSPs are listed among the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime's (UNODC 2013) 15 interventions, to which Smith and de Souza refer, as an essential program, not an optional one. Thus, despite its claims, CSC is not "consistent" with the UNODC recommendations."
Disability and sex work: developing affinities through decriminalization
Authors: Fritsch Kelly , Heynen Robert , Ross Amy Nicole , van der Meulen Emily
Published: May 2023

This article argues that strong policy frameworks are required to support the health and well-being of sex workers, disabled people, and disabled sex workers. Through an examination of the context of sex work in Canada, we articulate the flaws of sex work criminalization and the persistent barriers that criminalization creates. Our analysis of the intersection of disabled sexuality and access to sexual services identifies how the sex industry can aid in the flourishing of the erotic lives of disabled people. The article culminates in a discussion of the benefits of sex work decriminalization for sex workers, disabled people, and disabled sex workers.

 
“It Depends on Who You Are, What You Are”: ‘Community Safety’ and Sex Workers’ Experience with Surveillance
Authors: Wright Jordana , Heynen Robert , van der Meulen Emily
Published: May 2023

Community safety has complex connotations for sex workers. This complexity is, in part, a function of the contradictory nature of ideas of community and the positioning of sex workers as both at-risk and risky, victims and criminals. ‘Community’ is simultaneously inclusive of everyone, including sex workers, and that which needs to be defended against the perceived dangers posed by sex work and sex workers. Denied in these contexts is any sense that harm may indeed flow from community to sex workers, not just the reverse. Drawing on data from a study with a diversity of sex working women in Toronto, Canada, this article argues that these contradictions are not the product of confusion, but in fact are constitutive of the ways in which communities are rhetorically and materially formed. They have structured legislative responses to sex work, reflect normative conceptions of community, bodies, and public space, and have actively produced unsafe and insecure conditions for sex workers. Indeed, sex workers themselves consistently identify the contradictory nature of ideas of community and the harm that flows from them. This is strongly evident in one of the key ways in which projects for ‘community safety’ are currently implemented, namely the installation of Closed Circuit Television Cameras (CCTV).

 
Some Like It Mellow: On Gay Men Complicating Pornography Discourses
Authors: Corneau Simon , van der Meulen Emily
Published: May 2023

Despite the proliferation of writing on pornography generally, much of the literature that focuses on gay pornography specifically conforms to either a pro- or anti-porn framework. This overly simplistic dichotomy positions pornography as a homogeneous construct, albeit one that is either “good” or “bad.” Even theorists who situate pornography on a continuum, with erotica at one end and hardcore at the other, tend to reify these discourses. Further, it is not uncommon for researchers to draw conclusions about the effects of pornography consumption without defining exactly what pornography is. This ethnographic research draws on qualitative interviews with 20 consumers’ of gay pornography in Toronto, Canada. By using a thematic analysis to document the ways in which gay men define, distinguish, and conceptualize gay pornography, five definitional categories were developed: Mellow; Commercial; Raunch; Amateur; and Bareback. These broad conceptualizations are discussed in reference to writing on gay pornography. Our research results emphasize the importance of clear definitions of pornography within pornography research.

 
If you teach them, they will come: providers' reactions to incorporating pleasure into youth sexual education
Authors: van der Meulen Emily , Oliver Vanessa , June Larkin , Flicker Sarah , Toronto Teen Survey Research Team
Published: May 2023

Objectives: Sexual pleasure and satisfaction are integral components of the human sexual experience, yet these crucial aspects of sexuality are rarely placed on sexual education agendas. The objective of this paper is to explore the ways in which various groups of Service Providers (SPs) participating in the Toronto Teen Survey (TTS) understand the role of pleasure in sexual education for youth, highlighting the challenges and benefits of teaching pleasure in diverse settings.

Methods: The TTS employed a community-based research (CBR) methodology. Between December 2006 and August 2007, 1,216 surveys were collected from youth in over 90 different community-based settings across Toronto by youth peer researchers. In 2008, 13 follow-up focus groups were conducted with 80 service providers from 55 different agencies around the Greater Toronto Area. All transcripts were input into qualitative data management software, NVIVO. Coding and analysis of data employed the constant comparative method.

Results: SPs had a number of competing opinions about the inclusion of pleasure in sexual health education and programming. These concerns can be divided into three major areas: placing pleasure on the agenda; the role of gender in pleasure education; and the appropriate spaces and professionals to execute a pleasure-informed curriculum.

Conclusion: Access to resources, training and personal background determine SPs' willingness and ability to engage in the pedagogy of sexual pleasure. Medically trained clinicians were less likely to see themselves as candidates for instructing youth on issues of pleasure, believing that public health and health promotion professionals were more adequately trained and organizationally situated to deliver those services.
Sex Work, Law, and Violence: Bedford v Canada and the Human Rights of Sex Workers
Authors: Hudson Graham , van der Meulen Emily
Published: May 2023

In Bedford v. Canada, two levels of Ontario courts ruled that a selection of criminal laws prohibiting prostitution-related activities unjustifiably deprive sex workers of their right to liberty and security of the person.The courts struck down or modified some of the offending provisions to ensure that sex workers are better able to take precautions against violence. While sex workers consider the Ontario Superior Court of Justice ruling a victory and the Ontario Court of Appeal ruling a partial victory, the government, some women’s rights groups, and other defenders of the provisions argue that courts ventured into a “policy thicket”, which is to suggest that they had stepped outside of their legitimate institutional role. Associated concerns include that the decisions effectively constitutionalize prostitution and will pre-empt or curtail Parliament’s consideration of legislative options.

     In this paper, the authors clarify misconceptions about the constitutional foundations and implications of Bedford, and explore how the ruling might affect legal and policy-based interactions among various stakeholders. Approaching constitutional rights as discursive mechanisms, rather than as “trumps”, we argue that Bedford will not hinder the continuation of democratic debate about whether, how, and why aspects of sex work should be regulated. To the contrary, Bedford is more likely to enhance the quality of debates by making them more inclusive of the perspectives of sex workers as well as accommodative of growing empirical research that has hitherto been ignored or misrecognized.
Reframing prostitution as sexual and emotional labour
Authors: van der Meulen Emily
Published: May 2023

A key focus of the international sex workers' rights movement has been the reconceptualization of the sex industry away from prostitution as violence and exploitation and towards prostitution as a particular category of labour. This Commentary will examine the new ideas and developments in the political and theoretical framing of sex as work. In order to contextualize the directions in which studies in prostitution are developing, the work of key theorists Arlie Hochschild (1983), Thanh-dam Truong (1990), Wendy Chapkis (1997), Kamala Kempadoo (1998, 2004), and Teela Sanders (2005) will be drawn on to elucidate the concepts of 'sexual labour' and 'emotional labour'. The intention of this Commentary is to explicate what are still relatively new ways of thinking about prostitution. That is, as sexual and emotional labour.
Service provider views on issues and needs for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender youth
Authors: van der Meulen Emily , Travers Robb , Guta Adrian , Flicker Sarah , Larkin June , Lo Chase , McCardell Sarah , Toronto Teen Survey Research Team
Published: May 2023

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) youth require appropriate, effective, and accessible sexual health services. Sexual minority youth living in large urban, multicultural cities have a complex range of service needs. As part of the Toronto Teen Survey, focus groups were conducted with 80 service providers from 55 agencies in the Greater Toronto Area to elicit their input concerning the changing service needs of LGBT youth, their increasing complexity as a client group, and obstacles to working effectively with them. Issues that arose in the focus groups included addressing the needs of LGBT youth across a large city that includes suburban areas, the need to address the specific service needs of transgender youth, and the intersection of racial and ethno-cultural diversity with sexual orientation. Service provider recommendations focused on the need for improved education and training and policy change at the agency level. 
Why Decriminalize?: How Canada’s Municipal and Federal Regulations Increase Sex Workers’ Vulnerability
Authors: van der Meulen Emily , Durisin Elya Maria
Published: May 2023

This article highlights two sectors of the Canadian sex industry, massage and escorting, to explicate how current Canadian municipal and federal regulations violate sex workers’ basic labour rights and contribute to physical and economic vulnerability. We begin with a discussion of the impact of the radical feminist position on sex work and an introduction to Canada’s current regulatory context on both the local and federal level. The article then moves to the two sex industry case studies. Traversing a fine line between illegality and legality, regulations can stigmatize and penalize common job-related massage and escort activities. The article concludes with an international example of decriminalization in New Zealand. We argue that in order to put forth realistic social and policy recommendations, it is necessary to first look to an instance where policies are forged with and by sex-working communities and where sex workers’ labour rights and health and safety standards are prioritized. 
Beyond Tales of Trafficking: A Needs Assessment of Asian Migrant Sex Workers in Toronto
Authors: Malla Anna , Lam Elene , van der Meulen Emily , (Jaden) Hsin-Yun Peng
Published: May 2023

[Introduction]: "Butterfly (Asian and Migrant Sex Worker Support Network) provides support to, and advocates for the rights of, Asian and migrant sex workers. We are an organization founded upon the belief that sex workers are entitled to respect and human rights regardless of type of work, place of origin, or citizenship status. We engage in outreach to sexual service establishments, including apartments, hotels, massage parlours (which can include holistic centres and body rub parlours), and spas across the City of Toronto, meeting with hundreds of migrant Asian sex workers annually. We have found that the majority of the workers in the city’s massage parlours and spas2 are migrant women from Asian countries. They often face unique challenges based both on their work in the sex industry and their immigration status. Such challenges include sex work stigma, racial and gender-based discrimination, substandard working conditions, language barriers, gendered relations of power, surveillance by police, immigration, and bylaw enforcement officers, and precarious living arrangements. Asian sex workers also have to contend with dominant notions that deem them trafficked victims in need of “saving,” thus denying them agency in their decision making.”

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the validity and reliability of the Thai version of FDLQI.
Materials and Methods: Patients and their accompanying family members attending the Dermatology Outpatient Clinic at Siriraj Hospital were asked to complete the Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI), FDLQI, and the global question of their QoL (GQoL). The severity of the disease was assessed by physicians, the patients and the family members of the patients.
Results: One hundred family members accompanying 92 patients with dermatological diseases (63% with inflammatory skin diseases and 37% with non-inflammatory skin diseases) were included. The mean age of the family members was 43.5±12.1 years and 70% were women. They had been mostly employed (74%) and graduated from universities (65%). Validity was demonstrated by a positive correlation between FDLQI and GQoL scores (rs=0.695, P<0.001), and between FDLQI and severity of the patient's disease (rs=0.578, P<0.001) as evaluated by family members. The FDLQI showed high internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha=0.84) and test-retest reliability (ICC= 0.85).
Conclusion: The construct validity, internal consistency, and test-retest reliability of the Thai FDLQI demonstrated acceptable validity and reliability. The Thai version of FDLQI can be used to assess the QoL of family members of patients with any dermatological diseases.

Objective: To compare durations of invasive mechanical ventilator (IMV), other types of ventilator support and neonatal outcomes between neonates who received early versus late surfactant replacement therapy (E-SRT vs. L-SRT).
Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included neonates with gestational age (GA) less than 35 weeks or birth weight (BW) less than 2,000 grams, born between January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2021. Neonates who received SRT before 2 hours of life were defined as E-SRT and neonates who received SRT later were defined as L-SRT. Durations of IMV, other types of ventilator support, neonatal outcomes and length of stays were documented.
Results: Eighty-three neonates had received SRT with 52 (62.7%) had E-SRT and 31 (37.3%) had L-SRT. Neonates in E-SRT group had significantly lower GA and BW than neonates in L-SRT group (median GA 27 vs. 30 weeks; p = 0.002 and median BW 885 vs. 1330 grams; p = 0.003) and had longer duration of IMV but not significant (median 19.0 vs. 10.5 days; p = 0.219). There were no significant differences in durations of other types of ventilator support. After adjusted for sex, GA and BW, there were no significant differences in neonatal outcomes between neonates in each group. Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and septicemia were independent factors associated with prolonged IMV, ventilator supports and length of stays.
Conclusion: Timing of SRT was not associated with duration of IMV. VAP and septicemia were important factors prolonging ventilator durations and length of stays and should be prevented.Keywords: surfactant replacement therapy, respiratory distress syndrome, timing of surfactant, neonatal outcomes

Objective: The assimilating and converging Kolb learning style were reported to have positive correlation with critical thinking ability in Orthopedic resident. However, the relationship between Kolb learning styles and academic performance remained controversy. The objective of this study is to report the relationship between Kolb learning style and academic performance in Orthopedic residents.
Materials and Methods: The causal comparative cross-sectional study on 48 Orthopedic residents of academic year 2020 was conducted. The demographic characteristics of the participants were reviewed. The scores from the multiple choices question (MCQ) in-training examination, the objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) and the global performance rating scale were collected to represent academic performances of each Miller’s pyramid of assessment level. The Kolb learning style inventory were allocated. The statistical analysis was performed and p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant difference.
Results: The response rate was 100%. There was no statistically significant difference of MCQ in-training examination, OSCE and global performance rating scale among each learning style as p=0.789, 0.493 and 0.407, respectively. The assimilating and converging styles were the 2 learning styles which had the academic performance scores above the average scores in all assessments.
Conclusion: This study could not demonstrate the significant difference of academic performances among Kolb learning style in Orthopedic residents. However, the assimilating and converging style had the consistent scores above average scores in all domains. The Orthopedic learning experience should focus on the development of reflective observation, abstract conceptualization and active experimentation to facilitate effective improvement in academic performance of the residents.

Time Travel in the Composition Classroom: A Critical Thinking Assignment
Authors: Murray Kristin
Published: May 2023

The pedagogical challenge of any opinion essay is that students tend to think critically only about the past and present in connection to a problem. Their ideas about the problem concerning the future often contain no critical thinking: they focus on the simplistic notion that a problem will continue to be a problem and worsen. True, students cannot know the future, but they can speculate about it in a careful and responsible way. By guiding students with a series of questions to look more deeply at the future in relation to a particular problem, students will gain a deeper understanding of a problem. These questions have been developed over the course of five years of teaching an assignment I named “Opinion Essay from the Future.” This assignment fosters students’ critical thinking about the future and can illuminate a problem in the present and the near and distant future. Students need to use logic in their speculating, but speculating in and of itself is also a creative act. The paper concludes that writing about a problem in the future makes students, in many ways, similar to science fiction writers. When encouraged strategically, their imaginings about a problem recontextualize it, letting them see the problem through a wider lens that will show them that looking ahead makes the here and now clearer.
Realization of Self
Authors: Ray Indu
Published: May 2023

Self Attainment is the biggest achievement Is the Corona pandemic over or it will continue in 2023? One of the most important questions of this digital age. The lockdown during the corona pandemic has served as a good time for introspection. The most important thing people learned as a result of quarantine is how to appreciate the small things in life and do self-realization. The magic so often lies in the small things. The mood for 2021, where the ongoing state of the Pandemic has become the new normal, is self Attainment.  It is the time of reinventing, what we want to do. If Covid-19 hadn’t come? Reflecting on that does not count. What do we want to do when it is over?Change happens in the present-now. Hence do we need to learn something new, or is it enough to give loved things more time? For a long time there has been the image of the scholar who surrenders to thinking and becomes creative. Sometimes, we have to distance ourselves in order to be able to look at a problem from a different angle or to find ourselves. Even if the dictionary defines “alone” and “lonely” as synonyms, most people differentiate between being alone and loneliness. The word ‘alone’ implies a positive outcome whereas ‘lonely’, negative. Self-Attainment changes our thoughts and feelings, affecting not only our choice of profession but all areas in which we express ourself. We sometimes spend more time in planning our future courses of action rather than enjoying the present status. Hence it is imperative that we get rid of the non-meaningful things in our life and commit ourselves more to what matters most. What is more important like health, personal growth, career, finance, family, social life etc. We know ourselves as the person we aspire to be, not the person we are in the present- but it is essential to understand ourselves at a deeper level to achieve maximal potential and lead to self-improvement and increased self-esteem.
Statistical modeling of an outcome variable with integrated omics data
Authors:   , Gu Zhujie
Published: May 2023

In human disease studies, it has become common to collect multiple omics datasets measured on various molecular levels. The aim is to study the underlying mechanisms of disease from different perspectives by jointly analyzing these datasets. This thesis develops statistical methodologies to model a disease outcome with two omics datasets. We consider latent variable methods for constructing low-dimensional components representing the two omics, and linear models for associating the components to a disease. The latent variable methods address the statistical challenges of high dimensionality, correlations within and between omics, and systematic differences between datasets. The linear models provide flexibility for various study designs and different distributions of disease outcomes. Both two-stage methods where latent variable model and linear model are fitted separately and one-stage methods where the two are fitted simultaneously are developed. The two-stage methods are computationally fast and offer more flexibility in the linear models, while the one-stage models provide unbiased inference results. The methods are all validated and can be used in a wide range of disease studies.

Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) may cause major financial damage to farmers. It is a significant barrier to global trade. The Lumpy Skin Disease Virus (LSDV) is a member of the Capri poxvirus genus. The LSD significantly reduces milk production, which might drop from 10 percent to 85%. Consumption of milk and meat has decreased by 60percent to 70percent in Karachi (Pakistan) as a result of LSD usage. Cattle of all species and ages are affected, although lactating cows and young cattle are more at risk. Most LSD outbreaks take place in hot, humid environments when most of the flies that contribute as vectors are present. LSD might be transmitted more quickly by animals. While death is typically low (between 0 and 7%), morbidity ranges from 0.75 to 100%. Lesions can be seen in the reproductive, respiratory, and digestive system tissues. Mastitis, pneumonia, infections of the skin, limping, diarrhea, and myiasis are possible secondary consequences of severe LSD. Consuming milk and meat from diseased animals is dependable and safe. It is vital to choose infection control and preventive techniques. One of the main ways that LSD is spread in areas where it is not endemic is through the restricted mobility of infected animals. Another suggestion for disease control is to reduce the number of insects and vectors. Furthermore, the most effective method for disease control may involve vaccination or immunization with the homologous strain of the LSDV. For control measures to be chosen in time for the LSD to be reduced, diagnosis is therefore of utmost importance and should be rapid and accurate, particularly in endemic regions.
