Understanding the China—India Relationship: A Perceptual Analysis of Chinese Think-Tank Literature 2014—2021.
Authors:   , Wilford Andrew
Published: December 2023

China and India have a challenging and consequential relationship. Tense interactions in recent years culminated in a border clash in which soldiers on both sides lost their lives. Despite these significant developments, few studies draw on Chinese sources to analyse the strategic perceptions of influential think-tank scholars in the PRC. Their unique role in China’s political system renders their views an important mechanism for understanding elite Chinese perceptions of India. Adopting a political psychology approach grounded in cognitive biases and image theory literature, this study analyses every article in four leading Chinese think-tank journals between 2014 and 2021 to investigate several key themes. These include views of Hindu nationalism (Hindutva), Delhi’s relationship with the United States, the border conflict, and perceptions of India’s military and economy. The empirical findings suggest that Chinese scholars do not consider India dyadically; instead, they perceive the republic through the lens of Sino-US strategic competition, thereby diminishing India’s status. Scholars also consider endogenous factors like Hindutva or the leadership of Narendra Modi as singularly driving India’s foreign policy, asserting that India is solely responsible for the downturn in relations with China. This demonstrates the existence of consistently applied cognitive biases such as the fundamental attribution error and confirmation bias. India’s motivations and activities are portrayed as being inherently malign, and scholars do not consider China’s role in exacerbating tensions. The cognitive approach provides novel findings and offers explanations that systemic theories of International Relations cannot, such as why economic interdependence has not resulted in peace and why China does not balance India despite acknowledging its spoiler potential. This thesis contributes to debates regarding the nature of the relationship and insight into why their rivalry endures. Understanding Chinese elite strategic perceptions and their implications is vital for comprehending the nuanced and complex dynamics of the China-India relationship. After all, as the two largest countries in Asia, enduring tensions and misperceptions in their bilateral relationship could harbour grave consequences for the region.
Implementing Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge from the Social Studies Learning Management Perspective
Authors: Umbase Ruth Sriana
Published: December 2023

In today's digital era, one of the demands in the world of education is increasing teacher knowledge and managerial skills oriented towards Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK). This research aims to analyze teachers' managerial knowledge and skills in terms of (1) planning learning, (2) implementing the learning implementation plan, and (3) reflecting the planning, implementation, and learning outcomes components of Social Studies that are oriented towards implementing TPACK. This research design is descriptive-qualitative. The results show that Teachers' knowledge and managerial skills are in the moderate category and tend to be lacking—teachers have limited knowledge of and skills in learning management. Social Studies learning management can be integrated with new social intelligence in innovative and fun learning based on the application of TPACK. Several recommendations are suggested for social studies teachers: first, increase managerial knowledge and skills in learning and using TPACK through training, technical guidance, and ongoing apprenticeship; second, form a professional organization for social studies teachers to share knowledge and experiences; third, create networks with social studies teachers in developed countries. Finally, the government and the private sector (especially internet network providers) need to pay attention to the needs of teachers to implement TPACK.

Published: December 2023

Knowledge sharing among academics is critical for innovation and growth in higher education institutions. However, introducing a knowledge-sharing culture can be challenging. This study investigates factors influencing lecturer knowledge sharing and innovation in Indonesian universities, which aims to improve their global competitiveness. Adopting the theory of planned behaviour, this research examines how attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control shape lecturers' knowledge-sharing intentions and behaviours. It also analyses how knowledge sharing and dynamic leadership drive innovative work behaviours. An online survey of 357 lecturers from 38 Indonesian universities revealed that while attitude did not significantly influence knowledge-sharing intention, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control did. Additionally, knowledge-sharing intention strongly predicted actual knowledge-sharing behaviour. Moreover, dynamic leadership mediated the relationship between knowledge-sharing behaviour and innovation. These results highlight the pivotal role of dynamic leadership in translating knowledge sharing into innovation. More empirical research should investigate potential interventions to foster lecturer knowledge sharing and innovation across educational systems and cultural contexts. This study provides theoretical insights and practical recommendations for higher education leaders seeking to leverage knowledge sharing and dynamic leadership for organisational improvement.

The extraction of anabolic steroids (testosterone; epitestosterone; epimethenediol; 17α-methyltestosterone; 19-norethiocholanolone; 18-normethenol; 19-norandrosterone; 3α-hydroxy-2α-methyl-5α-androstan-17-one; 9α-fluoro-17,17dimethyl-18-norandrostan-4,13-dien-11β-ol-3-one; 1α-methyl-5α-androstan-3α-ol-17-one; 1α-methyl-5αandrostan-3α,17β-diol; epioxandrolone; methasterone; oxandrolone; formestane; 16β-hydroxyfurazabol) with organic solvents from water and aqueous salt solutions was studied at 20 ° C. Based on the experimental data obtained, the partition ratios of anabolic steroids (AS) were calculated, which were used to optimize the standard sample preparation procedure in the process of determining anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) and their metabolites in the urine of athletes. It was found that the most selective extractant from aqueous and aqueous salt solutions is hexane, which extracts the majority of AAS. To increase the recovery of AAS, poorly extracted by hexane, it is advisable to use salting out with sodium or ammonium sulfate and use more active organic extractants – methylene chloride or diethyl ether. An extraction sample preparation technique has been developed for the subsequent determination of anabolic steroids and their metabolites in athletes’ urine by gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection method. The proposed method is characterized by a standard deviation of 10 – 15 % and a detection limit of about 10 ng/ml of urine.

Authors: Vasilevich S. V. , Shaporova E. A. , Stoyko S. О.
Published: December 2023

The paper discusses the results of a kinetic study of the thermal decomposition of MS-8P, TN-98, and TN-600 aviation oils under conditions of continuous heating at a constant rate of 5 K/min to a temperature of 1 073 K. An integral method was used to describe the reaction mechanism and determine the macrokinetic parameters. It has been established that, from a phenomenological point of view, the average reaction of aviation oils conversion under the experimental conditions corresponds to the reaction model described by the surface-limited reaction equation (MS-8P), the power law (TN-98) and the model described by the three-dimensional diffusion-limited reaction equation (TN-600). When dividing the averaged reaction into two reactions (the first is completed at a temperature of 550–600 K, the second at a temperature of 638–655 K), it is determined that the first reaction is described by the reaction equation of the 2nd order (MS-8P), the first order (TN-98) and the reaction equation of one-dimensional diffusion (TN-600), and the second the reaction equation of the first order (three types of oil). The activation energy of the first reaction was 99 kJ/mol (MS-8P), 145.6 kJ/mol (TN-98) and 57.4 kJ/mol (TN-600), the value of the pre-exponential factor was – 144 241 567 min–1 (MS-8P), 62 161 395 942 min–1 (TN-98) and 236.16 min–1 (TN600). The activation energy of the second reaction is 160 kJ/mol (MS-8P), 91.6 kJ/mol (TN-98) and 127.1 kJ/mol (TN-600), the pre-exponential factor is 8.81 ‧ 1011 min–1 (MS-8P), 1.26 ‧ 104 min–1 (TN-98) and 2.04 ‧ 108 min–1 (TN-600). It is shown that the use of these values of the activation energy and the pre-exponential factor leads to agreement between the calculated values of the degree of decomposition of the studied oil samples and the experimental ones in the range of values of the degree of decomposition from 0 to 1.

Published: December 2023

The molecular genetic basis for pathogenesis of leukoplakia and squamous cell carcinoma of the oral mucosa (OM) is not well understood. Few studies are devoted to this problem and their results are incomplete and contradictory. At the same time, the early diagnosis of OM cancer and the prediction of its development are important public health problems.

The aim of the study was to analyze the relationship of somatic mutations with the formation of leukoplakia and squamous cell carcinoma of the oral mucosa.

48 altered OM epithelium samples of patients with OM leukoplakia (OML) (24 samples) and OM squamous cell carcinoma (OMSCC) (24 samples) were taken as material for research.

The pathogenic and probably pathogenic variants of the TP53, NRAS, and BRAF genes identified in this study, both  as one by one and in combination, are associated with high probability (RR 3000‒11 000) with OML with grade 1 epithelial squamous intraepithelial neoplasia. Identified pathogenic and probably pathogenic variants of the ERCC3, HOXB13, KRAS, MSH3, MSH6, PIK3CA, and TP53 genes are associated with a high probability (RR 90‒22 000) with the OMSCC development. The observed pathogenic variants of the KRAS and TP53 genes are highly likely to lead to the formation of OML with grade 1 squamous intraepithelial neoplasia of the epithelium; a subsequent formation of pathogenic variants of the PIC3CA and/or HOXB13 and MSH3 genes leads to malignant transformation of altered OM epithelial cells ( p = 0.0000048). This information allows designing PCR-and NGS-test systems for predicting the development and early diagnosis of OMSCC.

Published: December 2023

The aim of the study was to develop a virtual software package that, when it is based on personalized indicators, allows planning surgical tactics and performing differentiated treatment of patients with degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis.

The results of surgical treatment of retrospective group patients were the basis for creation of a virtual complex.

A virtual software package has been developed. It is an expert system for making decisions about surgical tactics for patients with lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis. The operation of the program is based on the automated analysis of a given list of input parameters. The core of the virtual complex is represented by two configurations, one of which contains an artificial neural network. As a result of virtual processing of the patient’s individual parameters, the program gives an answer in the form of two color scales with numerical labels: a scale of differentiated choice between isolated decompression and decompression supplemented with posterior fusion; scales for a differentiated choice between laminectomy supplemented with medial facetectomy and bilateral decompression of the spinal canal from a unilateral approach. Using the developed software package, surgical treatment of 26 patients with lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis was performed.

The Scales virtual complex, based on key general somatic and clinical and radiological parameters of a patient, creates an opportunity for a surgeon to make the most balanced and informed decision on the tactics of surgical treatment of lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis. A personalized approach, accompanied by artificial intelligence technology, is aimed at reducing the likelihood of tactical errors and long-term complications of surgical interventions. The use of color scales with digital labels makes it possible to simplify the process of preoperative planning and to create conditions for achieving a balance between the decision of the program and the individual opinion of a specialist surgeon. The result of differentiated treatment of a group of patients using a virtual system was a significant and statistically significant ( p < 0.001) improvement in the life quality of operated patients in the long-term period.

Among the conservative methods of treatment of osteoarthritis the use of plasma enriched with soluble platelet factors /platelet-rich plasma (PORFT/PRP) is becoming increasingly attractive.

The aim of the study was to determine the tolerability and effect of intra-articular administration of standardized autologous PRP on patients with knee osteoarthritis status based on the survey results. Patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) received standard drug therapy (n = 19) or additionally standardized autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) (n = 21). Intraarticular injection of 6 ml of PRP was carried out three times every two weeks. The administration safety was assessed. Patients were questioned with an assessment of VAS and WOMAC scales in 2 weeks, 1 month and 3 months after starting the treatment. It was shown that three-time intra-articular administration of standardized autologous PRP was safe for a patient. At the same time, the pain syndrome decreased (VAS score) and the knee joint function improved (WOMAC score) after 1 and 3 months. All indicators were significantly better compared to the control group. We concluded that standardized autologous PORFT with three intra-articular injections is safe and has an analgesic effect and preserves the function of the knee joint already within 1–3 months of observation.
Substantiation of tactics of chronic wound bed preparation at various stages of the infectious process on the basis of the analysis of the results of microbiological, clinical and morphological parameters
Authors: Yarets Yu. I. , Slavnikov I. A.
Published: December 2023

The chronic wounds (CW) bed preparation requires an integrated approach using wound assessment, microbiological and histological analysis, which will avoid skin graft failure.

The aim was to evaluate the possibility of using microbiological and morphological parameters of CW assessment to substantiate the choice of tactics of wound bed preparation to skin grafting (SG).

Morphological and microbiological indicators of CW (n = 229) at various stages of the infectious process were analyzed. To prepare CW to SG, the following treatment methods were used: dressings, vacuum therapy (VT), mechanical debridement (MD), and ultrasound debridement (UD).

The criteria that determine the possibility of CW preparation “under a bandage” in combination with MD are: the absence of inflammation signs and the normal state of granulations (red-pink color, firm and moist), a negative result of wound swabs, the histological result of Si 1/Si 2 and Sp 1/Sp 2. For CW performed with pathologically altered granulations colonized by potential pathogens and having Sp 3, Si 2/Si 3 criteria, the use of 2 UD procedures is indicated (1st in combination with MD, 2nd before SG), between which VT is applied. Critically colonized wounds showing the signs of Sp 3 in combination with Si 1 or Si 2, from which microorganisms are isolated in an amount of ≤105 CFU/ml and are characterized by persistent properties, are an indication for VT, which is performed between two UD procedures. Clinical infection signs, the presence of bright red friable and bulge granulations in the wound, morphological signs of Si 3/Si 2 and Sp 1/Sp 2 are indications for the use of 2 UD procedures in combination with systemic antibiotic therapy based on wound swab culture results.

Microbiological and morphological parameters characterize the CW state at various stages of the infectious process (colonization, critical colonization, infection) and are recommended as criteria for choosing tactics for wound bed prepara tion to SG.
Effect of antibacterial drugs of the carbapenem group on the composition of the parietal microflora of the large intestine and the pool of free amino acids in the blood plasma of intact rats

Published: December 2023

Introducing the antibiotic therapy into clinical practice is one of the most important steps in the fight against infectious diseases. Antibacterial therapy is prescribed to more than 70 % of all patients in intensive care units. Carbapenems remain the “cornerstone” of antibiotic therapy for severe infections. The main problem on the use of antibiotics is a long-term alteration of the healthy microbiota and a horizontal transfer of resistance genes. The structure of the fund of free amino acids in biological fluids and tissues is an integral characteristic of metabolism, and the effect of antibacterial agents on their concentration in plasma has not been sufficiently studied.

The aim of this study was to conduct a comparative analysis of the effects of meropenem and imipenem/cilastatin on the bacterial flora of the intestine and the pool of free amino acids in the blood plasma of rats.

The experiments were carried out on white outbred rats kept on a standard vivarium diet and having free access to drinking water. Animals were divided into 3 groups: group 1 (n = 7) – animals were intraperitoneally injected with 0.9 % NaCl solution for 10 days; group 2 (n = 7) – animals were intraperitoneally injected with meropenem-TF (SOOO “TriplePharm”, Republic of Belarus) at a dose of 60 mg/kg body weight for 10 days, group 3 (n = 7) – animals were injected with imipenem in the same way for 10 days /cilastatin (SOOO “TriplePharm”, RB) at a dose of 120 mg/kg of body weight. Free amino acids in blood plasma were determined by chromatography.

A comparative analysis of the pool of free amino acids in the plasma of rats after the administration of antibacterial drugs of the carbapenem group revealed a number of significant confidence (p < 0.05) differences in the both study groups. Thus, in the imipenem/cilastatin group, an increase in the total amount of proteinogenic amino acids, essential amino acids, the total amount of aromatic amino acids and a decrease in the nonessential-to essential amino acid ratio were determined. In the meropenem group, these abnormalities were not identified. However, the total amount of sulfur-containing amino acids decreased.

The results obtained showed a significant change in the levels of the both individual amino acids and their total amount.  A more pronounced change in the pool of free amino acids in the blood plasma after administrating imipenem/cilastatin is probably due to the presence of cilastatin (renal dehydropeptidase inhibitor) in the composition of the drug, as well as its more pronounced toxicity. When compared with meropenem, imipenem/cilastatin resulted in a greater growth of spore-forming anaerobes. In turn, meropenem more reduced the level of bifidobacteria, lactose-positive bacteria of the E. coli group than  imipenem/cilastatin.

Published: December 2023

This study  investigated  a  range  of  gene  polymorphisms  encoding  IL-1,  IL-6,  IL-10, and TNF-α ‒308 in 100 healthy unrelated Kazakhs using real-time PCR. The findings were compared with published data on other populations. The distribution of genotypes was consistent with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. However, the frequency of cytokine genotypes observed in the Kazakh population showed similarities and differences compared to neighboring ethnic groups. The most noticeable differences compared with Iranians, Turks, Russians, and Chinese were observed in the distribution of IL-1, IL-6, and IL-10 genotypes. The frequency of the TNF-α ‒308 genotype differed only with the Iranian population. Thus, our study showed a link between cytokine gene polymorphism and ethnicity. These results may be of clinical relevance in understanding the prevalence of diseases in Kazakhstan.

Published: December 2023

Desde a fundação da Unesco, os objetivos educativos se expandem e se complexificam, do aumento das matrículas à qualidade, igualdade e inclusão, conforme as necessidades do meio. Isto ocorre num quadro de declínio das instituições da modernidade, como a escola, e busca da sua legitimidade. Este estudo de caso focalizou, durante a pandemia, quando a educação remota se tornou indispensável, em um Agrupamento de escolas no sul de Portugal. Este tem estudantes com amplas diversidades do alunado, incluindo imigrantes e refugiadas.os, variadas diferenças socioculturais da população nacional e discentes com necessidades especiais. A pesquisa triangulou a legislação e normas, as entrevistas com as equipas intermédias e a observação de estabelecimentos. A pandemia obrigou à intensa utilização das tecnologias disponíveis. Os resultados apontam para a relativa coerência entre os vértices do triângulo, porém a distinção entre integração e inclusão não foi unânime, o que pode indicar uma simplificação dos objetivos por uma pequena parte de educadoras.es. A inclusão pode situar-se, portanto, como um valor organizacional precário, enquanto o alunado com necessidades educativas especiais pode figurar como valor “firme”.

Authors: Silva Moro Leandro
Published: December 2023

Este trabalho é de caráter propositivo e tem o objetivo de apresentar uma Proposta de Atividade de Sala de Aula Invertida no âmbito do Ensino de Física para graduandos, na modalidade presencial, em um curso de bacharelado em Engenharia Elétrica, em uma universidade pública. A metodologia adotada se baseia no aporte de teórico-prático de sala de Aula Invertida como possibilidade de Metodologia Ativa. Por razões técnicas não foi possível a sua aplicação, mas o contexto de elaboração remonta discussões sobre conservação e transformações de energia empreendidas em sala de aula com estudantes do último período. Quando se percebeu a necessidade de ampliar o espaço-tempo da sala de aula e articular essa temática com questões práticas do curso, de modo reflexivo. Pois, o trabalho do engenheiro eletricista, como o de outros profissionais, não pode ficar reduzido à mera prática ou imitação de modelos, mas demanda articulações teoria e prática, ou seja, teoria para se refletir sobre a prática e vice-versa. Nesse sentido, a proposta se apresenta como um desafio, haja vista que uma metodologia ativa para se efetivar, depende do contexto, da intervenção docente, das experiências vivenciadas e de outras variáveis.

Published: December 2023

Ogun State, Nigeria is experiencing crises, including kidnapping and terrorism that can impact its destinations. Thus, this study examined the perceptions of 133 tourists on the influence of these crises on their visitation to an attraction in the state, using a questionnaire survey. Two attraction officials were also interviewed on whether such crises impact revenue generation and employment. Results from the questionnaires which were analyzed using PSPP frequency distribution show that although terror crises had no significant influence on tourists' visitation to the attraction, they were concerned with the level of insecurity at the destination. Also, the transcribed interview outcomes reveal that, although similar crises had no significant impact on tourism, its perceptions can affect revenue generation and employment, when destinations are poorly projected. Consequently, these findings suggest the need for improved safety measures and mechanisms for promoting safe places at the destination by the authorities, for improved tourist arrivals, revenue, and employment opportunities.

As the Heart of Bali Tourism, Badung Regency plays an important role in the development of Tourism in Bali Province. To ensure sustainable Badung Regency Tourism, real steps must be taken immediately in overcoming the negative impacts caused by Tourism itself.

The formulation of marketing strategies was obtained from the implementation of FGD (Focus Group Discussion) which was attended by tourism stakeholders and related agencies within the Badung Regency government. The data was analyzed using SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats).

  The use of digital platforms, besides being considered effective and efficient in promoting tourist attractions in Badung Regency, can also be used as a medium to socialize Do's and Don'ts related to what tourists can and should not do during their visits in Badung Regency in particular and Bali Island in general, so that negative impacts and problems caused by the tourism sector can be minimized.  Good coordination and collaboration between tourism stakeholders and local governments are also important factors that must always be maintained and are expected to be able to overcome problems that arise in the community due to the adverse effects of tourism. Badung Regency must continue to improve itself in improving the safety and comfort of tourists, so that it can strengthen its position as a Regency that dominates the favorite destination of domestic and foreign tourists visiting Bali Island.
