Preprint - Sending News Back Home: Analyzing the Spread of Misinformation between Vietnam and Diasporic Communities in the 2020 Election
Authors: Moran Rachel Elizabeth , Nguyễn Sarah , Bui Linh
Published: September 2022

Prior research into misinformation has overwhelmingly concentrated on anglocentric, English-speaking communities. As a result, misinformation has proliferated, almost unchecked, in non-English contexts resulting in a dearth of understanding the structures and impact of misinformation among marginalized and immigrant communities. Through qualitative coding of social media data and a thematic inductive analysis inspired approach, we investigate how misinformation has proliferated through social media sites, such as Facebook, and how it spreads across Vietnamese diasporic communities within the U.S. and between the U.S. and Vietnam. Informed by the work of organizations such as Viet Fact Check, The Interpreter, and other community-led initiatives working to provide fact checking and online media analysis in Vietnamese and English, we present and discuss salient misinformation narratives that spread throughout Vietnamese diasporic Facebook posts, fact checking and misleading information patterns, and inter-platform networking activities. This work contributes contextual knowledge to researchers seeking to understand how to represent and include immigrant diasporic communities, their sociocultural contexts, and transnational misinformation around sociotechnical systems.
Differential expression of IFITM1 in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: September 2022

Neurodegenerative diseases that affect the motor neurons, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), have little treatment options and are generally rapidly fatal (1, 2). We harnessed the power of unbiased, whole transcriptome differential gene expression analysis, utilizing primary patient cells and tissues to discover genes whose expression defines sporadic ALS using published data (3, 4). We found significant differential expression of IFITM1, encoding interferon-induced transmembrane protein 1, in primary motor neurons of patients with ALS. IFITM1 was also differentially expressed in the fibroblasts isolated from patients with ALS. IFITM1 transcript was present at significantly higher levels in ALS patient fibroblasts as compared to control, non-diseased fibroblasts. These analyses will begin to define the transcriptional landscape of ALS.

A Thought Experiment to Challenge the Special Relativity Theory
Authors: Tadesse Henok
Published: September 2022

The experimental evidences cited to support the Special Relativity Theory ( SRT) , including Einstein's thought experiments, involve experimental setups in which the components (light sources, beam-splitters, mirrors, detectors, etc.) are all at rest relative to each other. An example is the Michelson-Morley experiment. In such experiments it is possible to define the 'rest frame' of the experiment in which proper lengths, proper times and hence the experimental outcome can be determined. Then Lorentz Transformation is applied to determine times and lengths in other inertial frames and to determine the same experimental result in other frames. What if no 'rest frame' can be defined for an experiment? Imagine a light speed experiment in space where all the components are in arbitrary relative motion. In such an experiment, it would be impossible to define the 'rest frame' of the experiment, and hence impossible to determine proper lengths, proper times and to determine the experimental outcome.

A systematic review and meta-analysis on the associations between perceived teacher-based racial-ethnic discrimination and student well-being and academic outcomes:
Authors: Civitillo Sauro , Mayer Anna-Maria , Jugert Philipp
Published: September 2022

Although research has overwhelmingly demonstrated the negative consequences of perceived racial-ethnic discrimination on children’s and youth’s well-being and academic outcomes, context- and perpetrator-specific discrimination experiences are rarely disaggregated. Racial-ethnic discrimination in the school environment is common, and the perpetrators are often teachers who may treat racial-ethnic minority students unfairly. This work used a three-level multilevel approach to meta-analytically synthesize existing evidence with the aim of 1) documenting the links between perceived teacher-based racial-ethnic discrimination (TBRED) and students’ psychological, behavioral, physical well-being, substance use, grade point average and school motivation, and 2) examining whether these associations differ by sample and study characteristics. Based on 68 studies and 259 effect size estimates, we found that perceived TBRED is linked to lower well-being (r = -0.15, 95% [-0.18, -0.12]), higher substance use (r = 0.13, 95% [0.06, 0.20]), and lower academic performance (r = -0.16, 95% [-0.20, -0.13]) with substantial heterogeneity across effect sizes. Similarly, TBRED had small-to-medium negative associations within each domain of well-being and academics. The results were partially moderated by school racial-ethnic composition, suggestive of a protective function of a higher concentration of racial-ethnic minority students. In addition, more reliable scales and a greater number of items measuring TBRED were associated with stronger negative correlations with well-being. These findings highlight the importance of increasing awareness around issues of racism and discrimination in initial teacher training and professional development. We encourage further exploration of effect size heterogeneity and call for research on TBRED outside the United States.

Hydrogel materials have attracted extensive research over the last few decades, especially in tissue engineering, due its many comparable properties with native tissue. This study proposes a new approach to hydrogel fabrication that combines oxidized alginate (OA) into N,O-carboxymethyl chitosan (NOCC) and an oxidized hyaluronan-based hydrogel system employing low cost, domestically sourced chitosan and alginate. Hydrogel fabrication parameters including component ratio and hydrogel concentration were studied. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) analysis was applied to confirm the chemical structure of the modified materials. Fabricated hydrogel samples were assessed by cross-sectional surface morphology, equilibrium swelling degree, and in vitro degradation behaviour. The results revealed NOCC and oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA)-OA component contributions toward hydrogel properties, a threshold of raising total polymer content within the network, and a comparison with previous formulations using unmodified alginate. Using low cost domestic resources is a promising way to reduce fabrication expenses, and further work should be performed to evaluate the potential of this cost-effective hydrogel for the tissue engineering field.

Published: September 2022

Background Several studies have addressed the prevalence of Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii), among Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients in different countries, and the potential association between the infection and PD; the results of these studies were conflicting. The study aims to investigate the prevalence of Toxoplasma infection among sample of Iraqi PD patients. Also, to examine the potential association of age, PD duration, gender, smoking habit, zone of residence and family history of PD, with the prevalence of Toxoplasma infection in PD patients.

Patients and Methods Seventy-four PD patients attaining Dr. Saad Al-Witry Neuroscience Hospital in Baghdad/ Iraq for routine follow up, from different Iraqi governorates, were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. Detection of T. gondii was performed by detection of anti-Toxoplasma IgG and IgM antibodies in serum by ELISA method.

Results The frequency rate of anti-Toxoplasma IgG antibodies in Iraqi PD patients was 43.2% (32/74); while, none of the participants was seropositive for anti-Toxoplasma IgM antibody. Age, PD duration, smoking habit and zone of residences were not shown to be risk factors for Toxoplasma infection in PD patients (P>0.05); meanwhile, female gender and positive family history of PD were shown to have a protective effect ((OR, 0.309; 95% CI, 0.099-0.966; P= 0.043) and (OR, 0.162; 95% CI, 0.037-0.705; P=0.015); respectively).

Conclusions

The prevalence rate of Toxoplasma infection in Iraqi PD patients is 43.2%, female gender and positive family history of PD might protect against Toxoplasma infection in PD patients.

Introduction to the Special Issue on Police Legitimacy with a Focus on Ethnic–Racial Minorities
Authors: Cao Liqun
Published: September 2022

This special issue examines the study of legitimacy with a focus on racial–ethnic minority relationships in criminal justice system. The violent and senseless death of George Floyd in the United States on 25 May 2020 has galvanized the recent international Black Lives Matter movement and represented one of the many tragedies in the history of the global racialized criminal justice system, Canada included. The criminal justice system of Canada has a disturbing and problematic history of oppression and colonialism. Against this historical backdrop, however, Canada has been able to develop its own research on a number of key themes, voice these concerns on scientific grounds, and pave its own way towards a more inclusive multicultural future. The special issue is part of the efforts during the extraordinary circumstances of the Covid-19 pandemic, which witnessed a short invocation of police emergency powers in Ottawa.

Published: September 2022

У статті зазначено, що на сьогодні доволі інтенсивно розвиваються наука, техніка, збільшується кількість отримуваної інформації, а також знань, що зумовлює необхідність оновлення системи освіти загалом.

Вказано можливі шляхи і перспективи розвитку вищої освіти, що ґрунтуються на засадах гуманізації, гуманітаризації та демократизації навчання. За таких умов викладач повинен не просто надавати студентам певний теоретичний матеріал, а ще й навчати їх працювати самостійно.

Важливу роль в освітньому процесі відіграє взаємодія педагога та здобувача освіти, під час якої кожен навчається, отримує новий досвід, знаходить способи вирішення різноманітних завдань тощо.

озглянуто принципи реформування системи вищої освіти, зокрема: неперервність, багаторівневість, фундаментальність, інтегрованість, комп’ютеризація тощо.

Доведено, що нині значна увага під час навчання в університеті має приділятися формуванню освіченої особистості, яка прагне самовдосконалюватися та здатна вчитися впродовж усього життя.

Проаналізовано взаємозв’язок між підсистемами вищого навчального закладу, який надає можливість педагогам якісно реалізувати професійну підготовку майбутніх фахівців.

Окреслено риси сучасного університету, що зорієнтовані на необхідність формування творчої особистості в умовах швидких суспільних змін.

Заклад вищої освіти є осередком не лише навчання, а ще й збереження традицій, формування світоглядних позицій, культури, тому він повинен базуватися на ключових професійних і моральних принципах, які усталені в державі, а також враховувати інтереси всіх учасників освітнього процесу.

Схарактеризовано функції університету, які відрізняються різноаспектністю, оскільки процес навчання триває значний період часу і містить велику кількість завдань, які потребують професійного вирішення.

Published: September 2022

У статті розкрито поняття технічної культури, яке характеризується багатоаспектністю. Проаналізовано погляди вітчизняних та зарубіжних науковців на специфіку формування технічної культури залежно від ключових завдань освітнього процесу. Зазначено, що технічна культура пов’язана із загальною культурою кожної особистості, яка передбачає наявність власної світоглядної позиції, вміння мислити критично, вирішувати проблемні ситуації, а також поважати думку інших, бажання самовдосконалюватися. Визначено сучасні складові технічної культури та особливості тлумачення цього поняття, а також висвітлено моделі технічної культури.

Доведено, що технічна культура менеджерів морської галузі суттєво впливає на їхню професійну діяльність, оскільки тільки людина з усталеними моральними цінностями та принципами здатна виконувати свої обов’язки якісно та ефективно. Вивчено ключові якості філософського погляду на технічну культуру менеджерів морської галузі як цінності особистості. Вказано, що важливу роль у формуванні технічної культури майбутніх фахівців відіграє розуміння, проаналізовано три форми розуміння, а саме: акт; процес; ефект процесу розуміння. Досліджено взаємозв’язки реалізації суспільних цінностей, які стали передумовою розвитку технічної культури менеджерів морської галузі як категорії загального блага.

На сьогодні формування технічної культури є довготривалим процесом, під час якого здобувачі освіти повинні не лише вивчити загальні закони та правила, а першочергово пізнати себе, окреслити перспективи подальшого розвитку суспільства, який впливатиме на їхнє суб’єктивне сприйняття світу. Охарактеризовано основні причини необхідності формування технічної культури для цінності особистості.

В умовах розвитку сучасних технологій, апаратного забезпечення комп’ютера та різноманітного програмного забезпечення відбуваються швидкі та якісні зміни у технологіях опрацювання даних. Саме веб-орієнтовані технології, які є нині передовими технологіями інформаційного суспільства, відіграють роль провідного інструменту інформатизації освіти. Виняток не становить і розвиток програмного забезпечення, що використовується у процесі вивчення комп’ютерного дизайну.

В статті обґрунтовується необхідність використання веб-орієнтованих середовищ навчального призначення в процесі вивчення комп’ютерного дизайну учнями старшої школи інформатичного профілю. Під час навчання інформатики в школах передбачено виконання навчальних завдань як на уроках в школі, так і вдома. Забезпечення всіх учнів доступом до уніфікованого програмного забезпечення є проблематичним адже у всіх різні комп’ютери, зокрема можуть бути різні операційні системи. Починаючи з 12 березня 2020 року навчання учнів тривалий час відбувалося і відбувається дистанційно. Більшість вчителів інформатики зіткнулись з проблемою як уніфікувати програмне забезпечення для опанування навчального матеріалу, на уроках інформатики. Одним з шляхів вирішення цієї проблеми є використання веб-орієнтованих середовищ. Розглянуто види комп’ютерного дизайну та відповідно до вікових особливостей учнів і цілей навчання дібрано веб-орієнтоване програмне забезпечення використання якого значно спрощує організацію і здійснення навчального процесу. Під час використання веб-орієнтованих середовищ не потрібно додаткових знань щодо їх налаштування, адже використання таких середовищ є незалежним від технічних характеристик комп’ютера, а потрібно лише підключення до мережі Інтернет.
ГЕНЕЗА ТА РОЗВИТОК АНСАМБЛЕВОГО ВИКОНАВСТВА В УКРАЇНІ (на прикладі першої зразкової капели бандуристів)
Authors: Курач Ю. В.
Published: September 2022

У статті досліджено шлях становлення та розвитку ансамблевої творчості в Україні, який є доволі тривалим і складним, оскільки спочатку капели бандуристів не можна було назвати професійними, що пояснюється відсутністю їхньої належної підготовки. З часом музиканти вивчали нові техніки, поглиблювали свої знання, що призвело до створення професійного творчого колективу.

Проаналізовано історію становлення ансамблевого виконавства на бандурі капелою, яка відрізняється неоднорідністю, адже таке мистецтво пройшло різні періоди творчого становлення, а саме: формування колективу; добір репертуару; визначення характерних рис виконавської діяльності.

Розглянуто передумови та причини виникнення першого професійного мистецького колективу в Україні, керівником якого став Василь Ємець, а також окреслено його творчі особливості.

Проаналізовано ключові аспекти, що зазначені у першому робочому статуті художньої капели кобзарів, зокрема: утворення кобзарської організації в Україні, яка повинна захищати кобзарське мистецтво та представляти сучасний революційний побут; розповсюдження серед населення ідей цінності та невичерпності кобзарського мистецтва, що є важливою складовою музичного мистецтва; пошук нових шляхів щодо розвитку кобзарського мистецтва, вдосконалення необхідних інструментів; організація кобзарських з’їздів; заснування школи, у якій навчатимуть грі на бандурі.

Окреслено низку проблем, яка постала перед капелою в період її розвитку. Створення музики професійного рівня потребувало розширення інструментарію, поліпшення техніки гри на бандурі та багато іншого. У зв’язку з цим, підвищення майстерності капели відбувалося поступово і повільно за умов збільшення учасників колективу.

Доведено, що ансамблеве виконавство в Україні формувалося з урахуванням значної кількості історичних, національних та мистецьких аспектів, які суттєво впливали на становлення мистецьких колективів, зокрема капели бандуристів.

The article presents the results of an experimental study of the effect of the solution and their concentration on the process of splitting water by electrolysis under the action of a direct electric current using a Hoffman device. As solutions, we used sodium hydroxide, sodium phosphoric acid, sodium carbonate, sodium sulfate, sodium metaborate, sodium phosphoric acid 2 — substituted and potassium hydroxide. The number of salts in the solution varied from 0.2 mol to 0.8 mol. The study showed that the splitting water at constant current and voltage is influenced by both the nature of salts and their quantity. So, it was found that with the same amount of substances in the solution, the process of splitting water occurs faster in a solution containing potassium hydroxide. When using an aqueous KOH solution in an amount of 0.2 mol, the volume of hydrogen released was 15 ml, and at 0.8 mol, 19.5 ml. Using an aqueous solution of sodium metaborate with a similar concentration, the volume of hydrogen released was 2 ml and 4.5 ml, respectively. The obtained results allow to choose the solution and its amount during the process of photocatalytic splitting of water.
Research of regimes of applying coats by the method of plasma electrolytic oxidation on Ti-6Al-4V

Published: September 2022

In this work, ceramic coatings were formed on Ti6Al4V titanium alloy using a technique of plasma electrolytic oxidation. Plasma electrolytic oxidation was carried out in electrolytes with different chemical compositions and the effect of the electrolyte on the macro-and microstructure, pore size, phase composition and wear resistance of coatings was estimated. Three types of electrolytes based on sodium compounds were used, including phosphate, hydroxide, and silicate. The composition of the electrolyte affects the intensity and size of microcharges and the volume of gas release of various electrolytes. The plasma electrolytic oxidation processes were carried out at a fixed voltage (270 V) for 5 minutes. The results showed that the coating was mainly composed of rutile- and anatase TiO2, but a homogeneous structure with lower porosity and a large number of crystalline anatase phases was obtained in the coating prepared in the silicate-based electrolyte. The diffractogram electrolytes did not reveal the peaks of the crystalline phases associated with the PO43—and SiO32— anions. This means that these anions included only oxygen in the coatings. The morphology and phase composition of the samples were studied using a scanning electron microscope and an X-ray diffractometer, respectively. Wear resistance was evaluated by the “ball-disc” method on the TRB3 tribometer. The wear resistance of various coatings formed on Ti6Al4V titanium alloys showed completely different wear resistance. The lowest coefficient of friction (µ = 0.3) was demonstrated by the coating obtained based on phosphate. This may be due to a large number of crystal phases of rutile. The sample prepared in a hydroxide-based electrolyte showed a high wear coefficient (µ=0.52). This effect can be obtained by eliminating surface defects (microcracks and micropores).
Case Report: The Value of Vigilance and Iterative Evaluations with an Uncooperative Patient in the Emergency Department
Authors: Espinosa James
Published: September 2022

A patient in the sixth decade of life presented to the Emergency Department (ED) with an apparent suicide attempt as well as with abdominal pain. The patient appeared to be inebriated. The prehospital emergency medicine service (EMS) providers suggested that the presentation may have been due to diabetic ketoacidosis. A chest x-ray finding showed possible pneumoperitoneum, but was read by radiology has having been seen on a chest x-ray from a year prior. Repeat physical examination continued to show abdominal tenderness, leading to a CT scan of the abdomen that demonstrated a large pneumo-peritoneum with a mild ileus and chronic surgical findings. The patient was transferred to a tertiary level of care for exploratory laparotomy after broad spectrum antibiotics and additional pain medication given. A bowel perforation was identified and was repaired. He had an uncomplicated clinical course and was discharged from the hospital 8 days later. The critical thinking skill of iterative reconsideration of a diagnosis along with iterative testing can avoid the pitfalls that can attend to such biases of cognition as anchoring and premature closure of thinking.
Anesthetic Management of a Video-Assisted Thoracoscopy and Pulmonary Biopsy in a Hemophilic Patient. a Case Report
Authors: Delgado Marina Ayres
Published: September 2022

Hemophilia A is an X-linked recessive hereditary bleeding illness that manifests as increased bleeding after moderate trauma and spontaneous bleeding. It is caused by a deficiency of the clotting factor VIII (FVIII). We report a video assisted-thoracoscopy in a 48-year-old patient with Hemophilia A. Hemophilia shouldn't be a barrier to invasive surgery, but there are a few conditions that must be met to ensure a straightforward intraoperative and postoperative course. Understanding the disease, a multidisciplinary team approach, and appropriate anesthetic management can result in a successful surgical outcome.
Are MRI Findings Different in HIV Positive Tuberculosis Spine Patients
Authors: Desouza Clevio
Published: September 2022

Background: Tuberculosis of the spine is a serious manifestation of the disease that causes debilitating injury. In HIV positive patients the incidence of skeletal tuberculosis increases to 60%. The MRI has become the gold standard for diagnosis and preoperative planning in spinal TB. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of HIV status on MRI findings in spinal tuberculosis patients at a tertiary public hospital in Pune, India. Methods: This was retrospective study of spinal TB patients admitted to a tertiary public hospital in Pune, India. Fifty patients with histopathological confirmation of spinal tuberculosis, HIV status and available MRI scans from 2017-2020 were identified. HIV status was positive in 16 and negative in 34. Males were predominant (27:23). Site, extent of disease, type of lesion, abscess volume, kyphotic deformity and skip lesions were reported. Results: There is no statistical difference in age and sex of the patients. The average abscess size in HIV positive group is more (9.63 sq.cm) as compare to (2.29 sq. cm) non HIV group. Average numbers of vertebrae involved in both groups are almost same (2.4:2.26). Average kyphotic angle is significantly more in non HIV group as compare to HIV group (10.8:15.38). skip lesions were more common in HIV group (6 out of 10 as compare to 6 out of 20). There was a positive correlation between abscess size and CD4 count in HIV patients. Conclusion: HIV negative patients have greater tubercular destruction as measured by resultant kyphosis. There is no difference in the incidence of location, type of vertebral involvement and number of vertebrae involved. Skip lesions were more common in HIV positive patients in our study. HIV positive patients show greater epidural abscess volume and are showing correlation with CD4 count.

Background:Neonatal sepsis is a condition defined as a clinical syndrome characterized by signs and symptoms of infection in an infant 28 days of life or younger. Neonatal sepsis is one of the major causes of neonatal morbidity and mortality especially in developing countries. Socio-demographic, maternal, neonatal and medical factors were associated with risk of infection. The clinical signs and symptoms of neonatal Sepsis are nonspecific and the confirmation of diagnosis is challenging and time consuming. Therefore, the diagnostic approach should be depends up on consideration of risk factors. Objective: This study aimed to assess the prevalence and factors associated with neonatal sepsis among neonates admitted to neonatal intensive care unit at Hiwot Fana Specialize Hospital Harar, Ethiopia 2020. Methods: Retrospective cross sectional registered data based study was conducted from February 7- February 25/2020 G.C. A total of 292 neonates cards was selected systematically from neonates admitted to Hiwot Fana specialize hospital at NICU. Data was collected using data extraction tool and checked for completeness and consistency then entered in to SPSS windows version 20.0 for analysis. Bivariate logistic and multivariate regression analysis was used to check existence of association of each independent variable with the outcome variable and Variables significant in bi-variate analysis (P< 0.25) was entered to a multivariate logistic regression model and statistical significance was declared at P < 0.05. Odds ratios along with 95% Confidence interval were used to measure strength and to assess the presence of statistically significant association between independent variables and outcome variable. Result: The prevalence of Neonatal Sepsis was 52.7%. From these 92.2% and 7.8% 0f Neonates developed Early and Late Neonatal sepsis respectively. Among them 59.7% were males. The study found that, Rural residence, delivery place, Meconium stained amniotic fluid, ANC follow up, Gestational age, birth asphyxia and 5th minute APGAR score <7 were significantly associated with neonatal sepsis. Conclusion: The prevalence of neonatal sepsis was 52.7%. Rural residence, Hospital delivery, Meconium-stained Amniotic Fluid, ANC follow up, Gestational Age <37 weeks, birth asphyxia and 5th minute APGAR score <7 were found to statistically significant with Neonatal sepsis.
Glosa do wyroku Sądu Apelacyjnego w Warszawie z 14 października 2020 r., sygn. akt V ACa 301/20, dotycząca naruszenia dóbr osobistych funkcjonariusza spółki poprzez odmowę udzielenia mu absolutorium
Authors: Łazarewicz Sylwia
Published: September 2022

Glosowany wyrok dotyczy możliwości poszukiwania ochrony przed skutkami nieudzielenia absolutorium członkowi organu spółki na gruncie przepisów Kodeksu cywilnego o ochronie dóbr osobistych. Bezpodstawna odmowa udzielenia absolutorium stanowi naruszenie dobra osobistego jakim jest dobre imię funkcjonariusza spółki. Jego kompetencje do sprawowania funkcji zostają bowiem w ten sposób zakwestionowanie, a on sam traci zaufanie niezbędne do wykonywania działalności. Jednak roszczenia jakie przewiduje Kodeks cywilny w sytuacji naruszenia dóbr osobistych nie zaspokajają w pełni interesu członka organu spółki. Ani bowiem uchwała wspólników o nieudzieleniu absolutorium nie może być w ten sposób wyeliminowana z obrotu ani też nie ma możliwości zastąpienia orzeczeniem sądu pożądanej uchwały o udzieleniu absolutorium.
Realizacja uprawnień sejmiku województwa w zakresie ochrony jakości powietrza, związanych z przyjmowaniem uchwał antysmogowych
Authors: Kaźmierska-Patrzyczna Aneta
Published: September 2022

W systemie polskiego prawa jednym z narzędzi ochrony jakości powietrza jest przyjmowana przez sejmik województwa na podstawie art. 96 ustawy z dnia 27 kwietnia 2001 r. - Prawo ochrony środowiska tzw. uchwała antysmogowa. Ma ona charakter aktu prawa miejscowego i zawiera przepisy mające na celu przeciwdziałanie niskiej emisji, która jest główną przyczyną powstawania smogu. W artykule dokonano analizy problemów związanych z przyjmowaniem uchwał antysmogowych ustanawiających ograniczenia lub zakazy w zakresie eksploatacji instalacji, w których następuje spalanie paliw na terenie 14 (z 16) województw, w których zostały one uchwalone. W praktyce przyjmowanie uchwał antysmogowych jest podstawowym uprawnieniem sejmiku województwa w zakresie przeciwdziałania niskiej emisji na terenie województwa lub jego części. Sejmik województwa ustanawia w nich odpowiednie ograniczenia lub zakazy dostosowując je do lokalnych uwarunkowań. Za nieprzestrzeganie regulacji antysmogowych grożą odpowiednie sankcje. Jednakże, dla osiągnięcia faktycznej poprawy jakości powietrza w Polsce, realizacja uprawnień sejmiku województwa związanych z przyjmowaniem uchwał antysmogowych powinna być prowadzona równolegle z programami dofinansowania wymiany pieców i termomodernizacji budynków.

Gamification in education is the use of game-based mechanisms, game aesthetics and game thinking to ensure student motivation and engagement, superior learning, and a behavioral change. This study was conducted to investigate the nature of the students’ opinions on gamification and on activities that were carried out to create a rich instructional environment through gamification with Scratch. This study was conducted as a qualitative case study. The sample consisted of 37 students (12 females and 25 males) who took the course during the spring semester. Data were collected from the students by using observation and interview forms. Findings of a content analysis showed that gamification significantly influenced the students’ motivation, participation and achievement. It created an enjoyable educational environment, and consequently, enriched academic achievement. Gamification can be used to transform educational contexts, especially the subjects that are problematic, difficult, and boring for students and avoided by students for due responsibility.

Published: September 2022

This paper aims to explore the notion of work-family conflict (WFC) among female nurses during the pandemic of COVID as they were standing at the front line to combat this havoc. Health care is a challenging field, and medical professionals, especially female nurses, experience this phenomenon on a daily basis. A reasonable amount of scholarship is available on this topic. How-ever, research focusing on contextualizing work-family conflict during COVID-19 is a missed clue between practice and research. Considering this lacuna, this research paper has exclusively focused on the lived experience of married (with kids) female nurses and the strategies they employed to survive in the religion-culturally defined patriarchal environment of Pakistan. In line,this paper contributes to the intellectual discourse with a context-specific insider's view of female nurses.Research implications and future research direction will also be given in this paper.

Published: September 2022

International advocacy groups such as DFID, CIDA, EU, UNDP, USAID and IFES are considered external actors of national development process. Reports on international advocacy groups exist but are limited to academic orientation. This paper focus on the role of these international advocacy groups on Nigeria’s INEC capacity building through a qualitative method of data collection and analysis. Findings conclude that the contributions of these organizations have differed both in their approaches and so is the kind of assistance they rendered to Nigeria’s electoral process since inception of the new democratic transition in 1999. They organised programmes on capacity building for INEC staff, and civic education programmes for the electorates, they enhanced political participation by women, youths and other marginalized groups; improved democratic quality of political commitment; strengthened channels of civic engagement; and promoted credible, transparent and sustainable elections. They also provide funding/ grant sponsorship of pre-election and post-election workshops for accredited observers and training for security officials. This is indeed significant to the prospect’s democratic development, and individual well-being of the citizenry which these international advocacy groups and norms advocate.
The Central Bank of Russia fighting the “Dutch disease”: the effectiveness of the policy chosen is questionnable
Authors: Kapkanshchikov S.
Published: September 2022

The article questions the effectiveness of the mechanism traditionally used by Russia’s Central Bank to counteract the "Dutch disease" through the purchase of foreign currency from Russian exporters to prevent excessive strengthening of the ruble in an environment of high world oil prices. Revealing the strategic weaknesses of the currency channel of money emission that dominates in Russia, the author substantiates the need for a decisive transition to the stock and credit channels of money emission in order to ensure a reasonable diversification of the domestic economy.

Published: September 2022

BACKGROUND: Whether the lower phase angle associated with worse physical function is a result of pain and muscle weakness in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is unclear. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between phase angle and back pain-specific disabilities in patients with LSS. METHODS: In this single-center, cross-sectional study, 491 participants with LSS were enrolled. The phase angle and back pain-specific disability were measured using bioelectrical impedance analysis and the Oswestry Disability Index, respectively. General linear models were used to examine associations between phase angle and the Oswestry Disability Index with or without adjustment for age, sex, low back and lower limb pain, numbness in the lower extremities, total fat mass, and lower limb muscle mass. RESULTS: The mean (SD) phase angle was 4.4∘ (1.0∘), and the mean Oswestry Disability Index was 36.1 (14.1) points. Greater phase angles were associated with less Oswestry Disability Index points (p= 0.037) independent of fat mass, low back pain, and hip or lower limb pain. CONCLUSIONS: A lower phase angle was associated with worse functional disability. Low phase angle may be an indicator of functional impairment due to low back pain associated with LSS.
