Published: April 2024

Modern IT technologies and the dynamics of their development objectively cause fundamental changes in various areas of the social environment and economic sectors. The intensive development of the digital economy naturally leads to organizational changes in the formation of the accounting system. The processes of using digital resources in this information system (digitalization) are becoming natural. Modern technologies cause significant changes in the design of the general information system of an enterprise, which, in turn, necessitates the organization of appropriate accounting practices. It actualizes the need to develop an accounting paradigm adequate to the new conditions - to substantiate the relevant content of theoretical statements and to develop practical recommendations. The global automation of business management processes by using modern digital technologies and their application to accounting and analytical activities actually improve the quality of many processes, enhance security and increase the efficiency of enterprises. The benefits of implementing a particular type of digital technology in the accounting system are accompanied by the possibility of a number of challenges (cyberattacks, software errors, errors in algorithms, etc.). In these processes, there are also facts of insufficient legal regulation of certain issues related to the use of modern digital technologies in the accounting sector. In the context of the development of the digital economy the issues of the directions of accounting development are being discussed and various arguments are being given for its organizational structure in the context of accelerated digitalization, which actualizes this area of research. Existing theoretical developments and practical examples on the digital transformation of the accounting system sufficiently formulate a generalized view of these processes, but the problem of developing applied principles for the implementation of information technologies of a specific type remains unresolved. Historically, accounting has been a business function that has been slow to adapt to changes and trends. Not many people expected to see a fully remote work environment in the accounting industry in the near future. However, recent technological advancements are fundamentally affecting all aspects of business, and accounting is no exception.

Gênero, representação política e os processos de interdição das mulheres no Brasil
Authors: Ferreira Maria Mary
Published: April 2024

No Brasil, a sub-representação de mulheres em cargos eletivos aponta para uma democracia não consolidada. Os 17% de representação feminina na Câmara Federal retratam as dificuldades do Estado brasileiro de elevar os patamares de presença feminina, mesmo considerando a política de cotas. Tais dificuldades se explicam na cultura patriarcal que perpassa as organizações sociais e instituições políticas, entre as quais os partidos e sindicatos. Ao comparar o Brasil com outras nações latino-americanas, observa-se que países como Argentina, Bolívia e Costa Rica alcançaram patamares semelhantes aos europeus. O recente impeachment que resultou na destituição de Dilma Rousseff da presidência do país evidencia que no Brasil, o conservadorismo, o patriarcado e a misoginia são perpetuados nas relações políticas, sustentados pela mídia, setores do judiciário e pelas bancadas fundamentalistas do Congresso. Esses fatos têm contribuído para acirrar mais ainda as desigualdades de gênero e classe. Este texto apresenta reflexões construídas a partir de estudos e pesquisas desenvolvidas nas duas últimas décadas (2010, 2015, 2019), enriquecidas por diálogos com diversos autores que denotam que a cultura patriarcal tem sido um dos fatores que mais incide sobre a violência política que interdita as mulheres de ter uma presença mais efetiva nos espaços de poder e decisão. Os resultados eleitorais apresentados denotam essa assertiva que se afirma na desvalorização das mulheres e na superioridade masculina.

Authors: Sukhorukikh Yu. I. , Biganova S. G.
Published: April 2024

Walnut (Juglans regia L.) is a particularly valuable plant for humans. This is due to its multifaceted beneficial properties and qualities as a food, medicinal, technical, recreational and environmental tree species. The main goal of nut breeding is to obtain high-quality fruits. In the Russian Federation for the selection of individuals that provide such products, two methods are mainly used: method 1 – «Program and method for breeding walnuts» (Sukhorukikh et al., 2007) and method 2 – «Program and method for the study of fruit, berry and nut crops» (1999). The purpose of the study is to study the diversity of promising forms of walnut identified on the basis of methods 1 and 2 in terms of taste, kernel extractability and the overall score of the breeding value (quality) of the fruit. Other characteristics assessed identically or similarly are not considered. The object of the research was the literature data of the authors assessing the quality of nuts using methods 1, 2. For statistical processing, the Stadia 8.0/prof. program was used, and Microsoft Excel was used for graphical construction. Diversity was assessed using coefficients of variation and indices of distributed rank diversity (IRRR) based on known methods. It was established that the coefficients of variation of the studied indicators, assessed using various methods, did not have a significant statistical difference, and the selection gradations of taste and kernel extractability were equally distributed. When assessed using method 1, the statistical distribution of the total score of the selection value of fruits had a normal distribution, when using method 2 it differed from normal. When assessing diversity using IRRR values, method 1, compared to method 2, turned out to be more sensitive and provided greater diversity of the allocated gene pool in terms of the overall score of the breeding value of walnut fruits. The results can be used in walnut breeding.

The Impact of Replicas and First-Copy Products on Authentic Products: An Exploration in the Apparel Industry
Authors: Anunay Mishra  , Amala Siby
Published: April 2024

The purpose of this study is to find out the impact of replicas and first copies on authentic products. Replicas and first copy products are unauthorized and are designed to mimic the original products and confuse the customers. Replicas has a great influence on customer’s mind and this has a significant effect on the sales of authentic products. The reason for this is that consumers prefer to pay lesser amount for these replicas than paying premium for the original thing. Therefore, this has led to decrease in revenue of companies that produce these authentic products. However, there has been an argument about this as some of them state that replicas and first copy products would help in generate interest in particular brand and this can serve as a gateway for more expensive and premium purchases in the future. The impact of replicas and first copy products are therefore complicated and multifaceted and it depends on various factors such as consumer behaviour, market strategies and the overall health of the market. The fashion industry grapples with the pervasive issue of replicas and first-copy products, which undermine the authenticity and integrity of apparel brands. This abstract delves into the multifaceted impact of replicas on authentic apparel, considering perspectives from consumers, brands, and ethical considerations. Counterfeit alternatives tempt consumers with discounted prices, eroding brand identity and aspirational value. Brands face threats to intellectual property rights and reputation, while ethical concerns arise from exploitative labor practices and environmental degradation. By exploring motivations, vulnerabilities, and proposing mitigation strategies, this research aims to inform stakeholders and foster solutions in combating the detrimental effects of replicas on the apparel industry. Counterfeit alternatives allure consumers with enticingly discounted prices, thereby undermining the distinctiveness of brand identity and eroding the aspirational value associated with genuine products. Concurrently, brands are confronted with formidable challenges concerning the protection of intellectual property rights and safeguarding their reputation against dilution and imitation. Moreover, ethical dilemmas emerge from the prevalence of exploitative labor practices and environmental degradation inherent in the production of replicas. By delving into the underlying motivations that drive consumer behavior, identifying vulnerabilities within the market, and proposing robust mitigation strategies, this research endeavors to provide valuable insights to stakeholders within the fashion industry. Through an informed understanding of the intricate dynamics at play, it is hoped that this study will catalyze collaborative efforts aimed at combating the detrimental effects of replicas and first copies on the apparel industry.

Comparison Of Antegrade And Antegrade/Retrograde Blood Cardioplegia Applications In Cardiopulmonary Bypass Accompanıed Cardiac Surgery
Authors: Amaç Bişar , Bağış Murat Ziya
Published: April 2024

Introduction: Ischemic heart disease (IHD) is among the leading causes of death worldwide. Sometimes, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is inevitable in the treatment of heart diseases by open heart surgery procedures. Myocardium protection is of great importance in CPB cases. Various techniques and applications exist for the protection of the myocardium.

Objective: In this study, it was aimed to determine the perioperative and postoperative early outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) operations with CPB by comparing intermittent antegrade and intermittent antegrade (Initial) combined with retrograde (Maintenance) blood cardioplegia applications.

Materials and Methods: 240 patients with similar characteristics who underwent CPB-guided CABG operation were included. Two groups were formed as Antegrade (Group 1) and Antegrade/retrograde (Group 2). The preoperative, intraoperative, and early postoperative results of the groups were compared.

Results: Gender, age, body surface area, flow, ejection fraction percentages, EuroSCORE and LMCA lesion presence values were similar in both groups (p>0.05). Cross-clamp time, total perfusion time, mean activated clotting time during CPB and perioperative drainage were similar in both groups (p>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the sodium, potassium, calcium, glucose, and lactate levels evaluated after CPB of the two groups (p>0.05). In addition, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of defibrillation requirement, inotropic requirement, and IABP requirement after CPB. (p>0.05).

Conclusion: Similar results were observed between antegrade cardioplegia alone and antegrade combined with retrograde cardioplegia in CPB-guided CABG operations. For this reason, we think that the antegrade cardioplegia technique alone will be more advantageous in terms of ease of application, not requiring additional invasive intervention, and eliminating the risks of the necessity of additional intervention. Furthermore, we think that the importance of case-based evaluation in cardioplegia techniques should not be ignored.

Authors: Alashram Hanan , Hamouda Ghada , Yaseen Mai
Published: April 2024

Purpose: This review aimed to explore “Just Culture”, patient safety, and the relationship between them from nurses’ perceptions working in healthcare settings. Also, to highlight recommendations for nurse managers regarding the explored concepts and provide evidence-based resource guiding future researches and nursing practice. 

Methodology: EBSCOhost, PubMed, and Clinical Key for Nursing were the databases selected for this review, accessed directly or through available online libraries.

Findings: A total of 21 studies met the screening criteria and were included. Studies recruited multiple levels of nursing positions, conducted in different countries and healthcare settings. Two themes were developed accordingly: Nurses’ perceptions toward “Just Culture” and Nurses’ perceptions toward patient safety. 

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The relationship between “Just Culture” and patient safety from nurses’ perceptions is found to be correlated with high or low nursing performance. Healthy work environments that foster “Just Culture” achieve desirable safety outcomes. The major role of organizational and nursing management is creating positive workplace cultures that maintain patient safety. Additionally, it is crucial to establish policies that demonstrate fair responses to incidents, adopt rational investigations based on balanced accountability, and avoid unjustified blame for nurses. “Just Culture” should not be promoted as a blame-free approach but as a balanced accountability. Hence, these managerial endeavors should encourage the voluntary reporting of incidents by nurses for learning and improvement purposes while nurses remain accepting their responsibility at the level they contributed to that incident.

Environmental Changes and Food Security in Ado-Ekiti, Nigeria
Authors: Adegboyega Emmanuel Rotimi , Owolabi Jimoh Temitayo
Published: April 2024

This study aims at evaluating the role of Geo-spatial techniques in vegetation cover analysis and mapping, environmental changes and food security in Nigeria. The challenges of food security in Nigeria especially in urban centres are enormous. The unmitigated rural-urban drift as a result of socio-economic development has made it imperative to address the problem of food security in the study area. Also, the issue of rapid urban development without appropriate attention given to the important issue of food security with persistent deteriorating infrastructure for urban food processing has led to rapid price changes, in food and other agricultural products. This study, therefore, attempts to demonstrate that the recent advancements in remote sensing integration with Geographic Information System technologies provide powerful tools for mapping and detecting changes in land use and land cover using Ado-Ekiti as a case study. The digital image processing techniques of remote sensing (RS) was employed to enable speedy, accurate and objective interpretation of the multispectral data used for the study, in order to understand the extent, rate and the magnitude of land use and land cover dynamics in the study area. The study reveals that the agricultural land and natural vegetation have the highest change. Much of their land areas were converted to built-up areas for the three study epochs (1992,2007,2022). The study concludes that there is a progressive encroachment of built-up areas to other land use in the study area, thereby resulting in significant environmental changes and affecting food security.
Examining Gender-Related Quantitative Disparities in Intern Performance: A Comparative Analysis
Authors: Santelices Ronnie
Published: April 2024

Internships serve as pivotal experiences in shaping individuals’ professional trajectories, bridging academic knowledge with real-world application. Amidst growing emphasis on diversity and inclusion, understanding gender dynamics in internship programs becomes imperative. This study investigates gender-based quantitative disparities in intern performance evaluation, focusing on the summers of 2022 and 2023. Drawing on demographic data and performance ratings across personal attitudes, work-related skills, and human relations, a comprehensive analysis reveals nuanced gender differences. While males dominate program participation, females exhibit higher representation in top performance categories for personal attitudes and work-related skills. Conversely, males excel in human relations skills. Recommendations include enhancing gender inclusivity in recruitment and program design, tailoring support initiatives, and fostering gender-equitable environments. Findings offer insights for optimizing internship programs, promoting diversity, and advancing gender equality in professional spheres.
Reaching Historic Heights of Tourism Arrivals in 2023: Tourists’ Feedback on the Travel and Tourism Pillars’ Quality in Tanzania
Authors: CRN Charles Raphael , Rodrick Filbert
Published: April 2024

Tanzania has reached historic heights in which tourism arrivals surpass 1.6 million in year ending May 2023 despite of the cumulative effects of the shocks of the war in Ukraine and the hanging over of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the feedback on what causes such historic heights is not yet established. One of the major factors for successful travel and tourism performance are the main pillars. Therefore, this study evaluated the feedback of the tourists on the main pillars of travel and tourism in Tanzania. Using the experiences of visiting North Tanzania, the tourists were specifically asked to determine the extent to which they are satisfied with the quality of travel and tourism pillars. They were also asked to rank their satisfaction feedback on the same travel and tourism pillars in Tanzania from their experiences of visiting North Tanzania. Eventually, the tourists were asked if the experienced quality of travel and tourism pillars can attract them or others to revisit Tanzania in the future. This study was approached quantitatively using descriptive survey design. Data were gathered from June to September, 2023 in Arusha, Kilimanjaro and Manyara using questionnaire from 277 tourists sampled using convenient sampling technique. The data were analysed using Descriptive Statistics. The findings indicate that, the tourists were dissatisfied on the quality of infrastructures; satisfied on the quality of enabling environment, policy and enabling conditions; and very satisfied on the quality of natural and cultural resources pillars. The given pillars’ quality were ranked differently by the tourists depending on their experience when visiting North Tanzania. This study recommends for continuous collaborative public and private investment on the identified pillars for further growth of travel and tourism in Tanzania.
