Disruptive Enterprise Factors and Risk Management in Global Supply Chain
Authors: Hashmi Rashid
Published: July 2023

Global firm arrangements allow access to low-cost labour and raw resources, better financing, a more comprehensive range of product marketplaces, chances for profit-making through arbitrage, and other government-sponsored incentives. Therefore, this study focused on disruptive enterprise factors and risk management in the global supply chain. The methodology used in this research was based on quantitative data collected through surveys conducted by supply chain professionals. The data were analyzed using SPSS to perform various statistical tests such as reliability and regression analyses. The patterns of findings derived through regression analysis illustrated that all three hypotheses were supported. The theoretical implications of the results are that they were very much aligned with the existing literature and contributed to it positively. On the other hand, practical implications are related to supply chain managers managing supply chain risks. The tested model can help understand the impact of specific variables on supply chain risk management.
Communication Studies in Africa: The Case for a Paradigm Shift for the 21st Century
Authors: Donald S. Taylor  , Peter Ogom Nwosu  , Eddah Mutua-Kombo
Published: July 2023

The paradigm for communication education in African universities has historically revolved around a mass communication or media-centered perspective. This orientation of the discipline in the African continent resulted from structural forces that derived from historical legacies rooted in Africa’s colonial past as well as the theoretical attraction of the mass media as agents of change. Additionally, the need to train university graduates for careers in journalism,broadcasting, public relations, and advertising has helped to entrench this paradigm as the cornerstone of communication education in Africa. Elsewhere however the discipline has experienced widespread growth in humancommunication specialties in such areas as intercultural communication, speech communication, interpersonal communication and others. This paper argues for a paradigm shift asserting that the time is ripe for the discipline at African universities to expand by shifting towards greater emphasis on human communication. Such a transformation would permit better understanding of the African communication environment as well as enable scholars to better respond, from a communication perspective, to the challenges of development in such areas as conflict resolution and, interethnic disputes among others. To achieve this, it is suggested that a consortium of communication scholars and other stakeholders convene to engage in discussions on new ways of thinking about communication education. The dialogue would need to be sensitive to past forces that have catalyzed change in meaningful directions.

Socio-Cultural Stratification of India
Authors: Iqtidar Karamat Cheema
Published: July 2023

Most of the research on any aspect of Indian culture or society considers holistic India as a single cultural unit and is based on mere observations and intuitive assumption and not based on empirical investigation. This paper is an attempt to create an understanding that India is a multicultural, multilingual and multiethnic society and that the usage of nation as a surrogate for culture is in-appropriate for countries like India with heterogeneous cultures. In this research an attempt is also made to compare the cultural values within the various regions of India.

Dá para Ser Casal Sem Sexo? Um Estudo Qualitativo da Assexualidade nas Relações Conjugais
Authors: Nascimento Lilian Cristina , Santos João Laurentino dos
Published: July 2023

Este artigo trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa realizada com três casais de classe média, de 36 a 58 anos, residentes na grande São Paulo, por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas, nas quais relataram que aspectos clínicos e biológicos foram descartados, a partir de exames realizados. O estudo teve como objetivo compreender o fenômeno da assexualidade na relação dos casais quando um dos cônjuges se torna assexual pela perda do interesse e do desejo sexual em relação ao parceiro, porém sem deixar de amá-lo, preservando outros valores no casamento. Pode-se refletir que, nos últimos tempos, tem havido muitas mudanças nos valores e nas práticas de vida das pessoas, impactando seus hábitos, costumes e modos de viver. Os resultados apontaram que a assexualidade é uma das muitas maneiras de se vivenciar a sexualidade, não mais considerada por muitos como anormalidade, disfunção ou patologia, mas como uma possibilidade de ser e viver a sexualidade na vida contemporânea.

Parathyroid Adenoma Associated with Granulomatous Inflammation- A Case Report
Authors: Chag Shyama Manojkumar , Patel Keyuri Bharat , Panchal Krishna Maheshkumar
Published: July 2023

Parathyroid adenoma is a benign neoplasm derived from the parenchymal cells of a parathyroid gland. Most patients present with unknown aetiology. Inflammatory disorders of the parathyroid gland are poorly defined and necrotising granulomatous inflammation of the parathyroid gland is very rare and its co-existence with a functioning adenoma of the parathyroid is indeed a unique presentation. This is the case of a 47-year-old female who presented with generalised weakness and joint pain with radiological and biochemical evidence of hyperthyroidism. The patient had undergone a nuclear tc99 sestamibi parathyroid scan which was suggestive of parathyroid adenoma and was operated for the same. Routine histopathological examination was suggestive of parathyroid adenoma with chronic granulomatous inflammation. However, diagnostic possibilities of inflammatory aetiologies are numerous and each has presented its characteristics, and theories have always focused on disorders of the parathyroid gland which can occur probably due to autoimmune and non infectious aetiology. Hypercalcaemia can be caused by many causes. However, parathyroid adenoma with coexistent granulomatous inflammation is a rare finding. Sometimes it is not possible to find the exact cause of granulomatous inflammation as in the present case.
The Livornese Slaves in Algiers
Authors: Addobbati Andrea , Bregoli Francesca
Published: July 2023

This essay analyzes a recently discovered French play, Les esclaves livournais à Alger, authored by François Gariel in Livorno in 1786. The protagonist of the piece, which is full of allusions to contemporary Tuscan and European events and subtle references to classics of French Enlightenment literature, is a virtuous, Algiers-based Jewish merchant who preaches toleration for all peoples and religions and greatly admires the grand duke of Tuscany. Important context for understanding Gariel’s play and the Jewish question in Livorno is provided by the relocation in the 1780s of prominent Algerian Jewish families who had built their fortunes on the ransom of captives, as well as the active but contested Jewish participation in the Livornese theatrical scene. Once the play’s many allusions are decoded and its layers are peeled back, Les esclaves takes us to the heart of Tuscan political debates about Jewish participation in the public sphere and illuminates widespread anxieties about Jewish power, intertwined with ambivalence about the prominent role of Jews in the commerce and ransom of captives. Livorno’s historical ties with the Maghreb are thus central to assessing the public discourse about the Jewish condition in Tuscany. A Mediterranean perspective in turn complicates our understanding of minority-majority relations as Enlightenment debates on toleration and Jewish integration flourished in Western Europe.

La articulación de la Administración Territorial del Protectorado francés en Marruecos
Authors: Ojeda García Raquel
Published: July 2023

La Administración territorial marroquí es un elemento político central, ya que es la principal institución del sistema político en Marruecos. A diferencia de los países occidentales con una estructura organizativa tridimesional basada en un Parlamento, una Administración de Justicia y un Gobierno con iniciativa política, la Administración colonial es unidimensional, coordinadora y garante de la acción colonial. En este sentido la Administración colonial supuso la extensión de la autoridad política y administrativa del poder central a todo el territorio bajo un esquema administrativo centralizado siguiendo así la concepción administrativa tanto francesa como marroquí.  AbstractThe Moroccan territorial administration is a relevant actor in the Moroccan political system. In the Western countries the adminitrative structure is tridimensional and is based on a parliament, a Justice administration and a Government, but the colonial administration is one-dimensional. Coordinates and ensures the colonial action. In this sense, the colonial administration led to the extension of political and administrative authority of the central authority throughout the territory under a centralized administrative scheme.

Published: July 2023

This research designs and implements an information system to manage web-based Semester Learning Plan using cloud computing technology, software, computers, and repositories as well as a serverless architecture. So far, the preparation of Semester Learning Plan in Department of Electrical Engineering UIN Sunan Gunung Djati Bandung is still done manually using a template in Microsoft Excel format. This method is considered ineffective because filling in takes a long time and the output is sometimes not uniform, both between lecturers and between courses. Based on this background, the author proposed the idea of creating a web-based Semester Learning Plan management information system. The method used to develop this system is the waterfall method which consists of five stages, namely requirements analysis, system and software design, implementation, testing, operation and maintenance. This information system using cloud computing technology and serverless architecture. The result of this research is a web-based Semester Learning Plan management information system. Through this system, lecturers no longer type manually into doc or xls format, but lecturers can directly input into the system or the web. The output is that the Semester Learning Plan can be downloaded and is in accordance with the applicable format and is in pdf format. The existence of this system can increase the effectiveness of lecturers in managing Semester Learning Plan.
A Brief Introduction to Fiber Optic Sensors and their Types with Applications
Authors: Jalil Muhammad Arif Bin
Published: July 2023

Abstract: Materials measurement and environmental assessment have traditionally employed optical measurement techniques like polarimetry, spectrometry, and interferometry. The application of these fundamental ideas is made even more flexible by the optical fibre. For more than 30 years, fiber-optic technology has achieved significant advances in measurement science.While by no means thorough, this study’s perspective on these contributions illustrates the significant conceptual advancements made in the early years of optical fibre technology and the range of applications that have arisen. Applying guided-wave optics to novel and difficult measurement requirements, such as microsystems characterization, cellular biology, and art restoration, presents clear prospects for further extensive study.
E-KYC System Using Blockchain
Authors: Chakraborty Soham , Boddul Akhil , Patil Vivek , Raje Ganesh , Gaikwad Prof. Ujwala
Published: July 2023

Abstract: Know your client or simply KYC, is a process utilized by businesses and financial institutions to identify their clients and evaluate any potential risks associated with illegal intentions and unethical behavior. The term KYC often refers to bank regulations and anti-money laundering regulations aimed at governing these activities. Due to concerns over bribery and unethical behavior, companies of all sizes are required to implement KYC to ensure their agents, consultants, and distributors comply with anti-bribery regulations. Despite the use of traditional KYC systems, there are limitations to their effectiveness. To address these limitations, a proposed system has been developed that uses the immutable nature of Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) to create a tamper-proof system. This system enables customers and financial institutions to verify and record KYC documents on the DLT, providing greater efficiency, cost reduction, improved customer experience, and end-to-end transparency in integrating customer documents into the bank's database. Additionally, this system eliminates the need for repeated KYC checks performed by banks through the creation of a secure and common blockchain database. The blockchain's secure nature ensures that unauthorized changes to the data are immediately invalidated and the use of a proof-of-reputation concept makes the verification process more robust.
A Systematic Review on Brand with Virtual Team For NGOs
Authors: Mohd Zahri Nurzuraini , Mohd Rashid Sabrina , Abdul Hamid Norsiah
Published: July 2023

A brand is what comes to mind when a potential supporter, donor, or consumer hears an organization's name. Brands are growing part of the workings of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) engaged in international aid and development. From telling and selling, branding has moved to communicating and sharing. In the NGO sector, branding draws attention to the complexities and clashes within NGO identity. This study examines the brand with a virtual team for NGOs. A systematic review of academic literature was done to find these. This review was constructed from the Reporting Standards for Systematic Evidence Synthesis (ROSES) protocol. To conduct this review, 128 articles were collected from three databases, which were chosen from Research Gate, Emerald Insight, and Google Scholar, and then articles were identified, screened, and reviewed. Once the selection was done, an analysis was then conducted. This was done to identify important branding elements that served as the basis for analysis when looking at the methods of a chosen brand for NGOs.
ENSO and NAO Linkage to Strong Volcanism and Associated Post-Volcanic High-latitude Winter Warming
Authors: Dogar Muhammad Mubashar , Fujiwara Masatomo , Zhao Ming , Ohba Masamichi , Kosaka Yu
Published: July 2023

High-latitude winter warming was observed following strong tropical
volcanism, which has long been believed to be due to the
volcanic-induced positive NAO phase. However, recent works argue that
this warming is caused by ENSO variability. Moreover, controversies
exist about the sensitivity of ENSO to volcanism. Therefore, to better
resolve the controversies related to post-volcanic ENSO and NAO
sensitivity and associated high-latitude winter warming, we conducted
ENSO-preconditioned volcanic experiments using GFDL-CM2.1 coupled model.
Our simulations strongly suggest that the post-eruption Eurasian winter
warming is caused by a post-eruption positive NAO phase and not by
coexisting ENSO-preconditioned variability. Additionally, we find that
the El Niño-preconditioned volcanic eruption enhances the El Niño phase;
however, the neutral and La Niña-preconditioned volcanisms do not lead
to ENSO–like response. These findings are helpful to better understand
volcanic-induced circulation impacts and have important implications for
the interpretation of model results and for post-volcanic prediction.

Published: July 2023

The IPB Museum, located on the Darmaga Campus of IPB University, serves as a platform to showcase its rich history, developments, and future aspirations. University museums are vital institutions, embracing innovation and fostering communities of knowledge. Previous research emphasizes the impact of visitor experience on satisfaction and loyalty, highlighting the advantages of interactive technologies in museums for improved engagement and education. Evaluating technology's impact is crucial, and this study utilizes The Museum Tourism Experience and Experiential Value questionnaire to provide a baseline measurement and benchmark for future interventions, enabling a comprehensive evaluation of technology's impact on visitor experiences and satisfaction. In this study, 103 undergraduate students from the User Experience Design Course were invited to visit the IPB Museum to assess their experience using The Museum Tourism Experience and Experiential Value (MTEEV) questionnaire, which evaluates five aspects of the visitor experience. The students completed the questionnaire both before and after their visit, aiming to measure the impact of the museum visit on their perception and evaluate the effectiveness of the IPB Museum. The museum received lower ratings in visual appeal, entertainment, escapism, willingness to pay more, and imaginary vividness compared to visitors' past experiences, indicating potential areas for improvement to enhance the overall visitor experience. Lastly, we present our participatory strategy using MBKM and the capstone program to improve the museum experience.

The following collection of Victorian Ghost Stories was collated and annotated by scholars at York University enrolled in the fourth-year Victorian Ghosts course offered through the department of English during Fall 2020. Starting with Elizabeth Gaskell’s “The Old Nurse’s Story” (1852)—a staple of many Victorian Ghost Story Anthologies—and ending with Ambrose Bierce’s “The Moonlit Road” (1907), this collection includes twenty-one ghost stories spanning six decades. As our classes were moved online for the 2020-21 academic year, this Scalar project functioned as a collaborative space with each student responsible for one ghost story (writing a short introduction and creating explanatory notes) and then finding links between those texts (and texts outside the course) to create a critical apparatus that helps guide readers through the anthology. This is the first edition and attempt at creating a project of this kind for this course and I hope it offers a foundation for future projects for EN 4573 (Victorian Ghosts) at York University. I cannot praise the students enough for their effort and enthusiasm during our time together when faced with learning a new software and completing unfamiliar assignments—not to mention, doing this all while navigating a (new to many of them) completely remote learning environment.

Published: July 2023

Nowadays, heavy metals are regarded as the most significant contaminants due to industrial activities and have an impact on their presence in milk. The presence of heavy metals in milk could have a serious negative impact on public health. The current study aims to determine the amount of various heavy metals (Pb, Cu, Co, Cd, Cr, Ni, Fe, and Zn) in raw Awassi ewe’s milk collected from Kwashe industrial area, Duhok province, Kurdistan Region, Iraq. The sheep were grazed in Sulaivany plain contaminated by drains of industrial effluents of several crude oil refineries and other 200 different factories. Atomic absorption spectrophotometer was utilized to analyze the milk specimens after wet digestion. Results displayed that the heavy metals concentration was in the range of 3.64-4.27 mg/L for Pb, 0.59-1.13 mg/L for Cu, 0.01-0.09 mg/L for Co, 0.12-1.46 mg/L for Cd, 0.24-0.29mg/L for Cr, 0.89-0.99 mg/L for Ni, 0.89-0.94 mg/L for Fe and 3.99-6.13 mg/L for Zn. Statistical analyses showed that excusing Cr, and all other studied heavy metals concentrations were higher than the human-health safety recommended.  Furthermore, among the heavy metals in the current study, the Zn was the highest mean value recorded (4.99 mg/L) and it exceeded the limited value (3.8 mg/L) by WHO/FAO, (1999). The permissible level of pb in milk is 0.05 mg/L, and the mean concentration of pb in the milk sample (3.99 mg/L) was significantly higher than the permissible value. Moreover, the mean value of Cd (0.75 mg/L), Cu (0.79 mg/L), Co (0.038 mg/L), Ni (0.948 mg/L), and Fe (0.91 mg/L) were above the limited value (0.01 mg/L) for Cd, 0.03 mg/l for Cu, (0.001-0.008) for Co, (0.1mg/L) for Ni and 0.1 for Fe, respectively. While the Cr concentration (0.27 mg/L) was lower than the recommended level (0.3 mg/L). Therefore, it was observed that the amount of heavy metals in the sheep milk utilized in this investigation possesses a health risk. Hence, it is always needful to persuade the pollutants in milk in the current area.

The current condition experienced is the lack of visitors who come to tourist objects due to the lack of marketing and information disseminated to the broader community, especially during a pandemic like today. Along with technological advances, the development of promotional media began to shift to digital media, one of which was video. Therefore, through community service, which is one of the tri dharma of higher education and to support Strategy 7 of the Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy: Utilization of technology to support tourism marketing and the creative economy, our service team proposes making tourism promotion videos through video/ Digital Marketing of Bah Biak Tourism Object in Bah Biak Village, Sidamanik District. Through this video, we hope to positively impact tourist destinations, including a significant increase in the tourism sector.

Multi Indah store is a small business engaged in the sale of shoe raw materials. The customer is a shoemaker. The problem faced by stores today is the process of sorting the shelf life which takes quite a long time so that it has an impact on the slow delivery of goods to customers. The development of an inventory control system using the RAD methodology is a solution offered to stores. The results of the system test found that the sorting process is faster and can help control the amount of inventory, service life, and items that are nearing expiration can be known quickly by shop owners through reports presented by the system.

Objectives: This study's objectives were to evaluate a cohort of medical students who had completed four years of undergraduate training and to fi nd parameters related to clinical empathy.Methods and materials: This cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2021 to august 2021 among postgraduate trainees in public tertiary care hospitals in Peshawar, Pakistan. The objective of the study is to measure the level of empathy among post-graduate doctors working in different tertiary care hospitals in Peshawar Pakistan. For measurement of the level of empathy,The Jeff erson Scale of Empathy (JSE) was used as a tool. Sociodemographic data and Students' levels of empathy were assessed by using the Jeff erson Empathy scale (JES). IBM SPSS 22 was used for data analysis. The (JES) scores on average were calculated. An independent sample t-test and one-way ANOVA, which were signifi cant at a p-value of 0.05, were used to assess the relationship between the mean Jeff erson empathy score and socio-demographic characteristics.Results: The P value of the ANOVA test across diff erent years of postgraduate study was significant, but it was less than.001, thus it was not utilized to compare empathy scores between hospitals in KTH, LRH, and HMC. The P value for the ANOVA comparing several hospitals was 0.635, which did not indicate signifi cance. Age and empathy had a Pearson correlation of -.085 (r=-.085). Empathy ratings and monthly income had an r=-.285 association. According to the results of multiple linear regression, a rise in age by one unit would increase empathy scores by 0.437 times.Conclusion: Our research revealed that the level of empathy varied depending on the training year and that after the second year, age ceased to be a factor in predicting empathy.

Extension agents across the country are using demonstration gardens to teach a variety of horticultural principles and practices. Descriptive data about the physical and management characteristics of gardens maintained for Extension programming in North Carolina were gathered from 35 horticulture agents. Gardens were found to most likely be developed at the county Extension center, be less than 0.5 acres, display a combination of edible and ornamental plants, and occur in counties with populations over 100,000 where Master Gardener Programs include at least 25 active volunteers. Master Gardener Volunteers emerged as the major source of funding and support for these gardens.

The Strategy of Clinical Procedure for Determining Brain Death
Authors: KIM Seung Min
Published: July 2023

The various aspects of brain death have been subjects of close study by several professional committees, which have for the most part confirmed the 1968 guidelines and clinical protocols for determining that the brain is dead. The central considerations in the diagnosis of brain death are 1) absence of cerebral functions(unreceptivity and unresponsivity); 2) absence of brain stem functions including spontaneous respiration; 3) irreversibility of the state. To these is usually added evidence of catastrophic brain diseases.
The absence of cerebral function is judged by the presence of deep coma and total lack of spontaneous movement and motor and vocal response to all visual, auditory, and cutaneous stimulation. The absence of brain stem function is judged by absence of spontaneous eye movements, midposition of the eye, and lack of response to oculocephalic and caloric (oculovestibular) testing; presence of dilated or midposition fixed pupils; paralysis of bulbar musculature(no facial movement or gag, cough, corneal, or sucking reflexes); absence of decerebrate responses to noxious stimuli; and absence of respiratory movements. As a final test of complete apnea, the patient can be disconnected from the respirator for a few minutes, allowing the PC02 to rise to 50 to 60 mmHg, as a stimulus to the medullary respiratory centers. The EEG provides confirmation of cerebral death, and most institutions still demand proof of electrocerebral silence, which be considered to be present if there is no electrical potential of more than 2 V during a 30-min recording. Other variable laboratory tests including cerebral angiography, isotope brain scan, transcranial Doppler, and evoked potential studies are occasionally performed as an ancillatory procedure when the results of the apnea test or the EEG are equivocal. The main difficulties that arise in relation to brain death are not the purely technical issues, but those involving the sensitive management of the family and other medical professionals. It is best not to embark on.
Ethical Attitudes and Behaviors of University Hospital Professors in Korea

Professional and personal ethical problem-solving abilities importantly influence patient care, the integrity of the patient-physician relationship, as well as fostering public trust for physicians. The patient-physician relationship has deteriorated in Korea as medicine provides more advanced and complicated therapies to patients without accompanying and appropriate communications between the patient and professional. We reported previously that most of residents working in university hospitals had experienced a serious ethical dilemma or intimidation from patients or their families during their practice in Korea. Moreover, most residents experience difficulty managing ethical issues encountered during medical practices without help from their medical Professor tutors. We hypothesized that Korean Medical Professors in university hospitals would have similar difficulties addressing these ethical dilemmas. In the summer of 2000, we surveyed 403 randomly selected Professors at 21 university hospitals around Seoul. We administered a questionnaire to assess ethics of care including doctor-patient relationship (8), clinical investigation (8)，gifts from patients (4)，gifts or rebates from drug companies or medical industries (3), conflicts between hospital profits and patients' potential benefits (3)，conflicts between physicians (3)，and ethics education (6). Two hundred and two Professors (male 95.1%) in 21 hospitals returned the survey. We found that some ethical points of view were different depending on the rank of Professor, their major specialty (medical vs. surgical), or hospital where they work. Younger Professors had experienced more conflicts regarding authorship in the publication of scientific papers, the discrepancy between the hospital’s income and patient s potential benefit under managed care, and the issue of gifts from patients, drug companies or medical industries. Physicians who work in hospitals that have an active institutional review board appeared to perform more appropriately from an ethical standpoint. Most of the respondents (91.6%) provided ethical consultation to students and residents depending on their clinical experiences. Most respondents desired to be involved in ethics training for the medical trainee. The difficulties in providing ethics education were time shortage (66.0%), doubt about the educational effect (16.0%), or lack of ethics knowledge (15.0%). Most (79.1%) considered that the education in medical school and during residency training is currently inadequate in Korea. In summary. Professors in university hospitals experience many ethical dilemmas involving patients care, clinical investigations, gifts, and hospital profits. Therefore, continuing ethics education programs, a well organized and active institutional review board, and a hospital ethics committee should be provided for physicians in Korea in order to address the complex ethical obligations that arise in the context of health care.
