Aparatur Sipil Negara merupakan elemen kunci sumber daya manusia dalam menentukan keberhasilan penyelenggaraan Pemerintahan di lingkungan kerjanya. Aparatur Sipil Negara yang selanjutya disingkat ASN adalah Pegawai Negeri Sipil dan pegawai pemerintah dengan perjanjian kerja yang bekerja pada instansi pemerintah yang diangkat oleh pejabat pembina Kepegawaian dan diserahi tugas dalam suatu jabatan pemerintahan atau diserahi tugas negara lainnya dan digaji berdasarkan peraturan perundang-undangan. Peraturan Pemerintah No. 11 Tahun 2017 telah diatur mengenai manajemen ASN yaitu tentang pengelolaan Aparatur Sipil Negara untuk menghasilkan pegawai ASN yang profesional, memiliki nilai dasar, etika profesi, bebas dari intervensi politik, bersih dari praktik korupsi, kolusi dan nepotisme. Aparatur Sipil Negara yang dimaksud dalam penelitian ini adalah Pegawai Negeri Sipil yang tidak melanggar Pelanggaran Disiplin. Pelanggaran Disiplin dimaksud adalah setiap ucapan, tulisan, atau perbuatan PNS yang tidak menaati kewajiban dan/atau melanggar ketentuan disiplin PNS, baik yang dilakukan di dalam maupun di luar jam kerja. Untuk menjamin terpeliharanya tata tertib dalam kelancaran pelaksanaan tugas Pegawai Negeri Sipil wajib mematuhi disiplin PNS karena apabila tidak mematuhi disiplin sebagai PNS maka akan dijutuhi hukuman disiplin, tingkat hukuman disiplin tersebut adalah hukuman disiplin ringan, hukuman disiplin sedang atau hukuman disiplin berat. Aparatur Sipil Negara itu sendiri mempunyai tugas melaksanakan kebijakan publik yang dibuat oleh Pejabat Pembina Kepegawaian sesuai dengan ketentuan perundang-undangan, memberikan pelayanan publik yang profesional dan berkualitas, mempererat persatuan dan kesatuan Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis pelaksanaan pelaksanaan kedisiplinan ASN di lingkungan pemerintah DIY. Jenis penelitian ini adalah deskriptif kualitatif.

Pelaksanaan Kebijakan Pemerintah Daerah Kabupaten Gunung Kidul Mengenai Bantuan Langsung Tunai (BLT) dengan Cara Kartu Prakerja dalam Menangani Pandemi Covid-19 : Tinjauan dari Sisi Ekonomi Politik
Authors: Goncalves Trianus Januar
Published: February 2023

Pandemi Covid-19 merupakan penyakit berupa virus yang telah menginfeksi seluruh dunia dan mempengaruhi masyarakat baik secara nasional maupun internasional. Berbagai negara membuat kebijakan yang berbeda-beda dalam menangani pandemi ini. Pandemi Covid-19 memberikan dampak yang cukup besar dalam bidang investasi, oleh karena itu masyarakat sangatlah berhati-hati dalam membelanjakan uangnya untuk membelikan suatu barang dan juga dalam melakukan investasi. Kebijakan yang dilakukan pemerintah adalah dengan cara menerapkan social distancing atau menjaga jarak, memakai masker, cuci tangan, dan untuk yang bekerja kantoran menerapkan sistem Work From Home (WFH). Dampak dari Covid-19 dalam bidang ekonomi juga memunculkan kebijakan kartu prakerja yang pada dasarnya adalah Bantuan Langsung Tunai (BLT) untuk masyarakat bertahan hidup dalam era pandemi. Pelaksanaan program bantuan prakerja berjalan atas berdasarkan Peraturan Presiden (Perpres) Nomor 36 Tahun 2020 tentang Pengembangan Kompetensi Kerja melalui Program Kartu Prakerja dan diturunkan dalam Peraturan Menteri Koordinator Bidang Perekonomian Nomor 3 Tahun 2020 dan Peraturan Menteri Keuangan (PMK) Nomor 25 Tahun 2020. Kajian ini ditemukan bahwa kebijakan ekonomi politik pemerintah (kartu prakerja) belum maksimal dalam penanganan Covid-19, karena pemerintah tidak tepat sasaran dalam membantu masyarakat miskin atau kurang mampu, namun dimanfaatkan oleh oknum-oknum yang memiliki strata ekonomi menengah ke bawah.

Published: February 2023

Objective: To determine the prognostic value of red cell distribution width (RDW-CV%) in predicting the outcome in neonatal sepsis.Methodology: It was an observational study conducted at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, Islamabad, from December 2018 to April 2020. A total of 136 neonates at term with clinical suspicion of neonatal sepsis were equally divided based on RDW into two groups as normal and raised RDW. A complete blood count and C-reactive protein were done on the day of admission and repeated on Day 3. Outcomes were observed in terms of discharges, expiries and length of hospital stay.Results: The mean RDW of Group 1 (normal RDW) was 14.71Â±0.65 on Day 1 and 17.14Â±0.14 on Day 3 with a significant p-value of <0.001. In group 2 (Raised RDW) on Day 1 it was 17.14Â±1.46 and at day-3 was 17.8Â±1.90 with a p<0.001. Discharged neonates in group 1 were 57 (83.8%) and in group 2 were 46 (67.6%). (p=0.458). Expired neonates in Group-1 were 11(16.2%) and in group-2 were 22(32.4%) with significant p-value of 0.028. Neonates shifted to ventilator in group-1 were 10 (14.7%) and in group-2 were 24(35.3%) with p-value (0.006). Length of hospital stay in terms of days in group1 with mean 5.85Â± 4.03 and group-2 it was 7.63Â± 4.82 with a significant p-value of <0.001.Conclusion: Raised RDW in clinically septic neonates was associated with poor outcomes in terms of length of hospital stay, mechanical ventilation and deaths compared to neonates with normal RDW.Keywords: Red cell distribution width, Sepsis, Neonatal
Escolaridade e inserção em setores por intensidade tecnológica: uma análise à partir da PNADC no período de 2012 a 2019

Published: February 2023

Este artigo procura ilustrar que o aumento da escolaridade não tem representado ganhos de aprendizado e de produtividade, porque os anos de estudos não tem se traduzido no desenvolvimento de habilidades relevantes para o mercado de trabalho. O processo de aprendizado e de construção de competências enfrenta dois obstáculos que são conectados: 1) baixa proporção de indivíduos que alcançam a educação superior; 2) escassez de espaços nos quais os graduados encontram trabalho para aplicar o conhecimento que adquiriam, de forma a darem continuidade ao processo de aprendizado (Arocena e Sutz, 2010). Para isto são utilizados dados da PNAD Continua (PNADC) do IBGE para o período de 2012 a 2019 como uma proxy da oferta de mão-de-obra qualificada. Os setores industriais das empresas foram classificados pela intensidade da atividade tecnológica de acordo com taxonomia da OCDE. Foram estimados modelos logit multinomiais, tanto para os ocupados na indústria quanto no setor de serviços. Os resultados indicam que maior escolaridade e qualificação profissional contribuem para a inserção do trabalhador em setores de maior intensidade tecnológica, favorecendo, portanto, a continuidade do processo de aprendizado. Por sua vez, os dados também evidenciam os efeitos macroeconômicos e conjunturais nas decisões microeconômicas das empresas, o que refletiu no aumento da probabilidade de inserção de trabalhadores em setores de menor intensidade tecnológica, para qualquer nível de escolaridade, após 2015.

Authors: Cechin Alícia , Bispo Scarlett Queen Almeida
Published: February 2023

A inovação e a agilidade no desenvolvimento de produtos por empresas espaciais sempre ficaram em evidência, contudo, durante a pandemia da COVID-19, acelerou-se. Várias empresas espalhadas pelo mundo colocaram a disposição da população diferentes equipamentos, tanto no que tange a assistência ventilatória, como relacionado a mudanças ambientais e sociais. O setor espacial, que é intensivo em tecnologia, pode contribuir para o desenvolvimento de diversos setores, como é o caso da agricultura, meio ambiente e eletrônicos. O governo chinês sempre preocupado com políticas de desenvolvimento e inovação criou ao longo dos anos políticas e estratégias para as indústrias, assim, ao passo que essas políticas foram bem sucedidas, foi possível observar uma aceleração na produção, no emprego e no comércio internacional. Sendo assim, o estudo tem como objetivo analisar as políticas de desenvolvimento da indústria espacial e de aviação chinesa desde a década de 50 até os dias atuais, com o “Made in China 2025” (MIC25) e o 14º Plano Quinquenal (2021-25). O estudo revelou que a China alcançou grandes avanços no setor espacial, se tornando um dos três principais países que dominam esse segmento. Situação um pouco diferente quando se trata de aeronaves comerciais, graças ao desenvolvimento tardio dessas indústrias. Por outro lado, o setor aeroespacial da China como um todo é fortemente nacional e vem ganhando cada vez mais relevância através de ambiciosos planos de desenvolvimento, tanto em inovação tecnológica quanto na disposição de recursos financeiros, no intuito de, entre outras coisas, superar o déficit na balança comercial dos produtos de alta intensidade tecnológica do setor.

Este artigo analisa as políticas de inovação para a indústria farmacêutica indiana entre 2005 e 2019. Por meio de revisão de literatura e análise documental das políticas que mais incidem sobre a capacidade produtiva e tecnológica dessa indústria— industriais/CT&I, regulatórias de preço e sanitária e de propriedade intelectual —, observou-se a evolução das políticas e do papel do Estado na promoção desenvolvimento industrial e inovativo. Argumenta-se que o caso da Índia é um exemplo claro de como a definição de objetivos estratégicos bem definidos, ações políticas contínuas e bem articuladas entre si, e a presença de metas e visão de desenvolvimento de longo prazo por parte do governo é um dos fatores chave para o sucesso de um setor tecnológico, e serve de aprendizado para o planejamento de políticas para a indústria farmacêutica de outros países em desenvolvimento

The Effect of GCG, Credit Risk, Size and Liquidity Risk on the Performance of National Foreign Exchange Commercial Banks in Indonesia
Authors: Octaviani Inneke , Mongid Abdul
Published: February 2023

The Covid-19 pandemic, which had an impact on financial performance of business sectors, including the performance of banks in Indonesia. The pandemic has resulted an increase in bad loans due to the large number of debtors who failed to pay their obligations. This study aims to investigate the effect of GCG, credit risk, size, and liquidity risk on the performance of national foreign exchange private commercial banks in Indonesia. The research covers 25 foreign exchange national private public banks in Indonesia. The data source is from the annual reports of each bank from 2017 to 2021. The analytical test used in this study is multiple linear regression. The results of the study show that Good Corporate Governance and size have a positive effect on bank performance. As expected, credit risk has a negative effect on bank performance. Meanwhile, liquidity risk has no effect on bank performance. The implication in this research is that Good Corporate Governance is an important thing in the banking as it increases the transparency and accountability. In the aspect of credit risk, proper mitigation must be carried out so that credit risk can be handled appropriately.

Abstract. A more accurate characterization of the sources and sinks of
methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) in the vulnerable Arctic
environment is required to better predict climate change. A large-scale
aircraft campaign took place in September 2020 focusing on the Siberian
Arctic coast. CH4 and CO2 were measured in situ during the
campaign and form the core of this study. Measured ozone (O3) and
carbon monoxide (CO) are used here as tracers. Median CH4 mixing ratios
are fairly higher than the monthly mean hemispheric reference (Mauna Loa,
Hawaii, US) with 1890–1969 ppb vs. 1887 ppb respectively, while CO2
mixing ratios from all flights are lower (408.09–411.50 ppm vs. 411.52 ppm).
We also report on three case studies. Our analysis suggests that during the
campaign the European part of Russia's Arctic and western Siberia were
subject to long-range transport of polluted air masses, while the east was
mainly under the influence of local emissions of greenhouse gases. The
relative contributions of the main anthropogenic and natural sources of
CH4 are simulated using the Lagrangian model FLEXPART in order to
identify dominant sources in the boundary layer and in the free troposphere.
On western terrestrial flights, air mass composition is influenced by
emissions from wetlands and anthropogenic activities (waste management,
fossil fuel industry, and to a lesser extent the agricultural sector), while
in the east, emissions are dominated by freshwater, wetlands, and the
oceans, with a likely contribution from anthropogenic sources related to
fossil fuels. Our results highlight the importance of the contributions from
freshwater and ocean emissions. Considering the large uncertainties
associated with them, our study suggests that the emissions from these aquatic
sources should receive more attention in Siberia.
Stable isotopic evidence for the excess leaching of unprocessed atmospheric nitrate from forested catchments under high nitrogen saturation

Published: February 2023

Abstract. Owing to the elevated loading of nitrogen through atmospheric deposition,
some forested ecosystems become nitrogen saturated, from which elevated
levels of nitrate are exported. The average concentration of stream nitrate
eluted from upstream and downstream of the Kasuya Research forested
catchments (FK1 and FK2 catchments) in Japan were more than 90 µM,
implying that these forested catchments were under nitrogen saturation. To
verify that these forested catchments were under the nitrogen saturation, we
determined the export flux of unprocessed atmospheric nitrate relative to
the entire deposition flux (Matm/Datm ratio) in these catchments;
because the Matm/Datm ratio has recently been proposed as a
reliable index to evaluate nitrogen saturation in forested catchments.
Specifically, we determined the temporal variation in the concentrations and
stable isotopic compositions, including Δ17O, of stream nitrate
in the FK catchments for more than 2 years. In addition, for comparison, the
same parameters were also monitored in the Shiiba Research forested
catchment (MY catchment) in Japan during the same period, where the average
stream nitrate concentration was low, less than 10 µM. While showing
the average nitrate concentrations of 109.5, 90.9, and 7.3 µM in FK1,
FK2, and MY, respectively, the catchments showed average Δ17O
values of +2.6 ‰, +1.5 ‰, and +0.6 ‰ in FK1, FK2, and
MY, respectively. Thus, the average concentration of unprocessed atmospheric
nitrate ([NO3-atm]) was estimated to be 10.8, 5.1, and 0.2 µM in FK1, FK2, and MY, respectively, and the Matm/Datm ratio was estimated to be 14.1 %, 6.6 %, and 1.3 % in FK1, FK2, and MY,
respectively. The estimated Matm/Datm ratio in FK1 (14.1 %)
was the highest ever reported from temperate forested catchments monitored
for more than 1 year. Thus, we concluded that nitrogen saturation was
responsible for the enrichment of stream nitrate in the FK catchments,
together with the elevated NO3-atm leaching from the
catchments. While the stream nitrate concentration ([NO3-]) can be
affected by the amount of precipitation, the Matm/Datm ratio is
independent of the amount of precipitation; thus, the Matm/Datm
ratio can be used as a robust index for evaluating nitrogen saturation in
forested catchments.
Reconstructing the ocean’s mesopelagic zone carbon budget: sensitivity and estimation of parameters associated with prokaryotic remineralization

Published: February 2023

Abstract. Through the constant rain of sinking marine particles in the ocean, carbon (C) trapped within is exported into the water column and sequestered when reaching depths below the mesopelagic zone. Atmospheric CO2 levels are thereby strongly related to the magnitude of carbon export fluxes in the mesopelagic zone. Sinking particles represent the main source of carbon and energy for mesopelagic organisms, attenuating the C export flux along the water column. Attempts to quantify the amount of C exported versus consumed by heterotrophic organisms have increased in recent decades. Yet, most of the conducted estimations have led to estimated C demands several times higher than the measured C export fluxes. The choice of parameters such as growth efficiencies or various conversion factors is known to greatly impact the resulting C budget. In parallel, field or experimental data are sorely lacking to obtain accurate values of these crucial overlooked parameters. In this study, we identify the most influential of these parameters and perform inversion of a mechanistic model. Further, we determine the optimal parameter values as the ones that best explain the observed prokaryotic respiration, the prokaryotic production, and the zooplankton respirations. The consistency of the resulting C-budget suggests that such budgets can be adequately balanced when using appropriate parameters.

Abstract. Aerosol radiative forcing uncertainty affects estimates of climate sensitivity and limits model skill at making climate projections. Efforts to improve the representations of physical processes in climate models, including extensive comparisons with observations, have not significantly constrained the range of possible aerosol forcing values. A far stronger constraint, in particular for the lower (most-negative) bound, can be achieved using global mean energy-balance arguments based on observed changes in historical temperature. Here, we show that structural deficiencies in a climate model, revealed as inconsistencies among observationally constrained cloud properties in the model, limit the effectiveness of observational constraint of the uncertain physical processes. We sample uncertainty in 37 model parameters related to aerosols, clouds and radiation in a perturbed parameter ensemble of the UK Earth System Model and evaluate 1 million model variants (different parameter settings from Gaussian Process emulators) against satellite-derived observations over several cloudy regions. We show that it is possible to reduce the parametric uncertainty in global mean aerosol forcing by more than 50 %, constraining it to a range in close agreement with energy-balance constraints (around −1.3 to −0.1 W m−2). However, our analysis of a very large set of model variants exposes model internal inconsistencies that would not be apparent in a small set of model simulations. Incorporating observations associated with these inconsistencies weakens the forcing constraint because they require a wider range of parameter values to accommodate conflicting information. Our estimated aerosol forcing range is the maximum feasible constraint using our structurally imperfect model and the chosen observations. Structural model developments targeted at the identified inconsistencies would enable a larger set of observations to be used for constraint, which would then narrow the uncertainty further. Such an approach provides a rigorous pathway to improved model realism and reduced uncertainty that has so far not been achieved through the normal model development approach.
Modelling the interannual variability of Maipo and Rapel river plumes off central Chile
Authors: Salcedo-Castro Julio , Olita Antonio , Saavedra Freddy , Castillo Manuel , Saldías Gonzalo S. , Cruz-Gómez Raúl
Published: February 2023

Abstract. River plumes have a direct influence on coastal environments, impacting coastal planktonic and benthic communities, including fishery resources. In general, the main drivers of river plume dynamics are the river discharge and the alongshore wind stress, whereas the tides and topography play a secondary role. In the Central parto of Chile, rivers flowing into the eastern Pacific have a relatively short path on the land, with a high slope; further they are characterized by a mixed snow-rain regime. This study aims to understand the interannual variability of the plumes of the Maipo and Rapel rivers in the Coastal/shelf area off Chile and its influence on local ocean dynamics. We used the Coastal and Regional Ocean Community model (CROCO), with 1 km resolution and 20 sigma levels, to simulate the ocean dynamics of the area over the period 2003–2011. The results show that the plume’s area coverage and coastal ocean salinity are strongly correlated to the river discharges. The predominant southwestern wind controls the plumes orientation toward northwest; however, episodes of wind changing direction from northwest in winter can reverse the plumes direction, making them squeezed to the coast and moving southward. Results also show, for the decade under evaluation, a salification trend linked to the severe droughts hitting Central Chile during the studied period. This salification determines a change in local dynamics.

Abstract. Multi-temporal glacier inventories provide key information about the
glaciers, their characteristics, and changes and are inevitable for glacier
modelling and investigating geodetic mass changes. However, to date, no
consistent multi-temporal glacier inventory for the whole of the Karakoram
exists, negatively affecting the monitoring of spatio-temporal variations in glaciers' geometric parameters and their related applications. We used a
semi-automatic method combining automatic segmentation and manual correction and produced a multi-temporal Karakoram glacier inventory (KGI) compiled from Landsat TM/ETM+/OLI (Thematic Mapper, Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus, and Operational Land Imager) images for the 1990s, 2000s, 2010s, and 2020s. Our assessments using independent multiple digitisation of 37 glaciers show that the KGI is sufficiently accurate, with an overall uncertainty of ±3.68 %. We also performed uncertainty evaluation for the contiguous glacier polygons using a buffer of half a pixel, which resulted in an average mapping uncertainty of ±5.21 %. We calculated more than 20 attributes for each glacier, including coordinates, area, supraglacial debris area, date information, and topographic parameters derived from the ASTER GDEM (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer global digital elevation model). According to KGI-2020s, approximately 10 500 alpine glaciers (>0.01 km2 each) cover an area of 22 510±828 km2 of which 10.18±0.38 % (2290±84 km2) is covered by supraglacial debris. Over the past 3 decades, the glaciers experienced a loss of clean ice and/or snow area but a gain in supraglacial debris. Supraglacial debris cover has increased by 17.63±1.44 % (343.30±27.95 km2), while non-debris-covered glaciers decreased by 1.56±0.24 % (319.85±49.92 km2). The total glacier area was relatively stable and showed only a slight insignificant increase of 23.45±28.85 km2 (0.10±0.13 %). The glacier area has declined by 3.27±0.24 % in the eastern Karakoram, while the glacier area slightly increased in central (0.65±0.10 %) and western Karakoram (1.26±0.11 %). Supraglacial debris has increased over the whole of Karakoram, especially in areas above 4200 m a.s.l. (above sea level), showing an upward shift. The glacier area changes were characterised by strong spatial heterogeneity, influenced by surging and advancing glaciers. However, due to global warming, the glaciers are on average retreating. This is in particular true for small and debris-free glaciers. The multi-temporal KGI data are available at the National Cryosphere Desert Data Center of China: https://doi.org/10.12072/ncdc.glacier.db2386.2022 (F. Xie et al., 2022).
The role of long-term mineral and manure fertilization on P species accumulation and phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms in paddy red soils

Published: February 2023

Abstract. Understanding soil phosphorus (P) transformation and turnover under various fertilization managements is important for evaluating sustainable P fertility and potential bioavailability in agriculture managements. Thus, long-term fertilization experiments (∼ 38 years) with the application of different inorganic and organic fertilizers in paddy red soils were
conducted to determine the effect of different fertilizer applications on P
pool accumulation and microbial communities, especially for phosphate-solubilizing microorganisms (PSMs). Long-term inorganic P (IP) fertilization increased the concentrations of total P (TP) (∼ 479 mg kg−1), available P (AP) (∼ 417 mg kg−1) and
inorganic P (∼ 18 mg kg−1), but manure
fertilization accelerated the accumulation of organic P, especially for
orthophosphate monoesters (e.g., myo-IHP, ∼ 12 mg kg−1). Long-term mineral fertilization decreased bacterial richness,
evenness and complexation of bacterial networks. In contrast, long-term
manure fertilization and rhizosphere accumulated more amounts of total
carbon, total nitrogen, and organic carbon, as well as regulated the soil
pH, thus improving the separation of bacterial communities. Furthermore, PSM compositions were greatly influenced by fertilization managements and
rhizosphere. For example, inorganic P fertilization increased the abundance
of Thiobacillus (i.e., the most abundant phosphate-solubilizing bacteria (PSB) in this study) and shifted the community structure of PSB. Correspondingly, the concentrations of inorganic and total P were the key factors for the variation of the PSB community structure. These findings are beneficial for understanding the variation of inorganic and organic P pools and the microbial community, especially for PSMs under long-term inorganic and/or organic fertilization.

The present thesis investigates the cognitive architecture of spoken word production using a combination of behavioural and neurophysiological methods. Through a series of experiments, the author aims to shed light on longstanding debates surrounding the role of phonology and semantics in word production, and their interplay in different stages of the production process. The findings of this work contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying spoken language production, and have implications for theories of language and cognitive processing more broadly.
Self-Actualization, Individuation and Self-Realization to Search the True Self: A Comparative Study of Siddhartha and a Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man
Authors: Aslam Ferva , Akhter Saira , Aslam Nimra
Published: February 2023

This paper stresses the need for self-actualization through the comparative analysis of Herman Hesse (1951)and James Joyce’s A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (D. M. I. H. JAMES, 2009) by instilling the critical lenses of self-actualization, individuation, and self-realization espoused by Abraham Maslow and Carl Jung. It attempts to investigate the quest for the true self of Siddhartha and Stephen Dedalus in different circumstances and scenarios. Both of them are motivated to know their actual self as their all needs are already satisfied according to Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. Maslow and Jung have theorized the need to explore the actuality of self and the process of individuation respectively to achieve psychological development. Jungian archetypes and Maslow’s hierarchy of needs lead toward the final product which is a realized self. This process of discovering the self can never be a linear phenomenon. Siddhartha’s search for Atman and Stephen Dedalus’ search for artistic grandeur paved the way to get their true identity. This self-centered development ensures self-actualization which is a lifelong process with no final destination.

THE IMPACT OF THE RUSSIA-UKRAINE WAR ON THE TRADE BALANCE OF THE WORLD AND GEORGIA
Authors: Beridze Lasha
Published: February 2023

Just when the whole world, which was already almost stopped and reduced as a result of the pandemic, was starting the process of restoring the global economy, the Russian Federation invaded Ukraine, which further stopped the process of economic recovery and deepened the world economic crisis, which was previously dictated by the breakdown of the supply chains. Russia and Ukraine, with their economic scale, are important players in ensuring the world trade balance, both jointly and separately, so the start of the war led to an increase in the prices of a number of goods and services, which particularly affected strategic goods such as oil products, gas, wheat, corn, oil and others. The increase in the prices of strategic goods was quite large-scale at the world level, so in the most countries of the world the rate of inflation increased, which led to the correction of various macroeconomic indicators, while such corrections turned out to be more sensitive for the countries of the European continent, which depended on Russian energy resources. Although the economic and financial sanctions were quite immediate, some countries still failed to join the sanctions and plans were developed to reduce their dependence on Russian energy resources and goods, because joining the sanctions completely would cause the collapse of the economy of such countries, since some countries are completely dependent on Russian resources. Russia and Ukraine are one of the most important trade and partner countries for Georgia, that's why the war had a significant impact on the economy of Georgia. Despite the fact that Georgia largely joined the sanctions imposed by the European Union, it still maintained its openness to the Russian economy and trade, which was reflected in the Georgian economy by the inflow of remittances from Russia and the increase by the flow of travelers.

Achieving sustainable development goals may be overlooked amid the acute economic crisis created by the current pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war. On September 25, 2015, the 193 member states of the United Nations reached an unprecedented agreement on the sustainable development document "Transforming our world: the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development", which includes 17 goals and 169 tasks (United Nations, 2020). The Sustainable Development Goals are based on three interrelated elements of sustainable development: economic growth, social inclusion and environmental protection.

Whether Georgia will be able to be relevant to the tasks of sustainable development with its economic strategy, reforms and results is a highly important issue.

If the country has resources that have not yet been identified or properly studied, then the government should urgently find every means to ensure the financing of those programs and initiatives that are intended to eliminate the mentioned problems and thus contribute to the advancement of the country's future, raising the standard of living of the population. and job creation. Citizens have the right to participate in decision-making processes, including at the local level. The right of citizen participation is directly related to the citizen's right to influence the exercise of government powers and responsibilities. It is precisely in the process of development and evaluation of public services that the involvement of citizens provides the basis for obtaining better results of the government's policy and promotes the strengthening of trust between citizens and the government. The authorities are obliged to provide the society with the necessary environmental protection information, and in case of request, to give them. Because without correct information it is practically impossible to form a free opinion.

The plant is popular as traditional anticancer preparation in Malaysia and Singapore. In addition, this plant also finds its application in the treatment of ascites, cancer and skin diseases. The current study was carried out to investigate the anti-ulcer activity of the ethanolic stem extract of Epipremnum aureum in Wister rats. Investigation of antiulcer activity of the ethanolic stem extract of Epipremnum aureum was carried out on pylorus ligated and ethanol induced gastric ulcer models by oral administration of extract at the dose of 100, 200 and 400mg/kg body weight. Parameters such as percentage of inhibition of ulcer, ulcer indices were evaluated in ethanol induced ulcer model using Sucralfate (100mg/kg) as the standard drug, while volume of gastric secretion, free acidity, total acidity, pH were assessed in pylorus ligated ulcer model using Omeprazole (30mg/kg) as standard. The extract showed significant (p<0.05) dose dependant reduction in ulcer indices in ethanol induced ulcer model at the tested doses of 100, 200 and 400mg/kg, exhibiting maximum gastroprotection of 73.94% at the dose of 400mg/kg which were comparable with that of sucralfate which showed gastroprotection of 87.9%. In pylorus ligation induced ulcer model, in comparison with the vehicle control group there was significant decrease in total acidity, free acidity, ulcer index, gastric volume and rise in gastric pH were observed in the animals treated with extract at the doses of 200mg/kg and 400mg/kg. The plant extract showed highest gastroprotectivity of 71.3% at the dose of 400mg/kg whereas standard drug Omeprazole showed 81.5%.

Published: February 2023

Los avances de la biotecnología y las fascinantes perspectivas de la genómica nutricional en el escenario de la práctica clínica conducen a la consideración de distintos aspectos que impactan en el beneficio integral del ser humano. En ese sentido, la integración de la nutrición personalizada en la atención clínica requiere de un análisis bioético centrado en la unidad de la persona que, con base en su perfil nutrigenético único, contribuya al cuidado de la salud por medio del tratamiento nutricional individualizado. El análisis bioético contempla los principios de totalidad terapéutica, libertad e integridad. Además, el uso de las pruebas nutrigenéticas destaca no solo la confidencialidad de datos, que se presupone, sino que lleva a considerar el derecho a la intimidad.
