Authors: Zenku Imer , Dimovska Marija K.
Published: October 2023

The increased awareness of the key role of effective management for the success of modern organizations in conditions of globalization has led to numerous questions about the mechanisms that determine the variability of this significant phenomenon. The purpose of this paper is to understand the factors that influence the process of effective management, with a focus on communication skills. This paper investigated the influence of communication skills among managers on effective management in organizations in the Republic of North Macedonia. The paper has a theoretical and empirical character, and the research is oriented towards determining the connection between the communication competencies of managers and management styles. The findings confirm that communication competences are a prerequisite for effective management that includes leadership, and that managers with different levels of communication competence will prefer different management styles. The findings suggest significant links between the three-dimensional integrated management model that is theoretically and operationally defined as a combination of transformational, transactional and liberal management styles with the communication model. These findings speak about the importance of communication skills, which increase with the level of a managerial position where transformational management styles dominate and confirmed the assumption that good and creative communication plays an important role in effective management and becomes crucial in today’s world at all organizational levels.

The breeding of a fast-growing tree species, Acacia mangium Willd. has entered the third-generation cycle in Indonesia. To fulfill timber industry needs, wood traits, as well as growth traits, should be improved by conducting appropriate tree breeding programs for this species. In the present study, growth and wood traits were measured for the 10-year-old third-generation A. mangium from 40 half-sib families originating from four sub-lines from two provenances. The mean values of ten families in each sub-line ranged from 17.7 to 21.8 cm for stem diameter, 14.3 to 16.2 m for tree height, 3.60 to 3.77 km/s for stress-wave velocity, and 19.9 to 20.9 mm for Pilodyn penetration, respectively. The broad-sense heritability values in each sub-line ranged from 0.014 to 0.444 for stem diameter, 0.000 to 0.208 for tree height, 0.261 to 0.715 for stress-wave velocity, and 0.171 to 0.484 for Pilodyn penetration, respectively. These results suggested that families with higher density and Young’s modulus of wood, suitable for solid wood production, can be selected from the third-generation A. mangium. Stem diameter significantly correlated with the other three measured traits, while phenotypic correlation coefficients between stem diameter and stress-wave velocity or Pilodyn penetration were very low. In addition, no significant phenotypic correlations were found between other measured traits. Furthermore, positive- or non-significant genetic correlations were found between growth and wood traits in all sub-lines. Thus, it is concluded that the selection of families with good growth characteristics will not always reduce the wood properties of this species.

Authors: Yasir* Mochammad , Dwiyanti Lusiana
Published: October 2023

Previous research has not found the right formula to win bull races studied in ethnoscience learning so that it requires problem solving. Solving this problem requires critical thinking skills which can be viewed from reflective and impulsive cognitive styles during bull races. This study aims to determine the level of critical thinking in science teacher candidates based on reflective and impulsive cognitive styles in ethnoscience learning. This type of research is a mix method with exploratory sequential design. The research was carried out in the Science Education Study Program FIP UTM, Bangkalan Regency by taking a sample of 6 science teacher candidate subjects. Data collection was collected using tests, documentation, and interviews. The results of the cognitive style test showed that science teacher candidates were 25% reflective, 29% impulsive, 25% fast-accurate, and 21% slow-inaccurate. The results of this study indicate that reflective science teacher candidates are able to recognize images well, be careful, think deeply so that answers tend to be correct and answer questions according to questions in ethnoscience learning. Impulsive science teacher candidates are able to recognize pictures poorly, are not careful, do not think deeply so that answers are not precise and answer questions at random in ethnoscience learning. The conclusion obtained is that the critical thinking level of reflective science teacher candidates is better than impulsive in ethnoscience learning, although there are not many significant differences.

Authors: Suayb Alanoud , Al-Rajeh Atheer , Alshahrani Khawlah , Albarrak Maha , Altmimi Noora , Al-Huzaim Waleed
Published: October 2023

Background: Lactose intolerance is a common worldwide medical condition that affects around two-thirds of the global population, with variations across regions. South American, Asian, and African individuals tend to develop lactase deficiency, while northern Europe and northern Indians may maintain lactose digestion into adulthood. West African and Arab individuals also suffer from lactose intolerance. Research on lactose intolerance prevalence in Saudi Arabia can provide valuable data for the medical field and general population.
Methodology: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in the Riyadh region, the capital of Saudi Arabia. The study population consisted of 274 patients, with an age range from 18 years old to 70 years old.
Results: Out of 274 patients, 45.3% tested positive for lactose intolerance. Males constituted 58% of the sample, and 30.3% of positive results were from male patients, while 15% were from females. A significant association was found between positive lactose tests and male gender (p < 0.05). Chronic conditions were present in 53.4% of patients, and 23.9% of them had positive lactose tests. A significant association was observed between positive lactose tests and medication use (p < 0.05). Regarding weight loss, 47.6% of patients with positive lactose tests experienced no weight loss, 19.2% reported weight loss, and 2% had stable weight. An association was found between positive lactose tests and weight loss (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: The study found significant associations between positive lactose test results and gender, medication use, weight loss, and abdominal pain, indicating lactose intolerance is a multifaceted condition influenced by multiple factors. Further research is needed to understand the complex interplay and establish causality using longitudinal study designs.
Late-presenting congenital diaphragmatic hernia in a child with gastric perforation and acute pancreatitis
Authors: Li Qing , Liu Caixia
Published: October 2023

Background. Late-presenting congenital diaphragmatic hernia occurs beyond the neonatal period, and is relatively rare, presenting with nonspecific respiratory and gastrointestinal symptoms.
Case. We report a rare case of late-presenting congenital diaphragmatic hernia in a 7-year-old girl, who presented with abdominal pain, shortness of breath and fever on admission. Work-up revealed intrathoracic gastric perforation, acute pancreatitis and septic shock with a diaphragmatic defect. Due to the high content of amylase in pleural effusion, we suspected the presence of a pancreaticopleural fistula, and we were also puzzled whether the gastric perforation was caused by a pleural indwelling catheterization, but this was ruled out. We about performed a laparotomy to reposition the herniated organs, repair the hernia and the gastric perforation, and undergo the gastrostomy. The girl had an uneventful post-operative recovery.
Conclusions. Late-presenting congenital diaphragmatic hernias are often misdiagnosed. Clinicians should combine multiple imaging modalities to make a definite diagnosis and perform surgery as soon as possible to avoid severe complications.

Published: October 2023

Background. To describe the existing pharmacological managements for Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C) in a systematic way, to identify the available pharmacological managements in MIS-C, evaluate its safety and efficacy and identify the best treatment procedures for practice recommendation.
Methods. A systematic search using six databases was conducted on August 18, 2021, updated in January 26th 2023. Terminologies that were used in this search are children, MIS-C/PIMS and SARS-CoV-2. A PRISMA flow diagram was used to report the study selection process. Quality analysis was done based on NOS and GRADE tools. Data synthesis was conducted by extracting the information on drugs used, efficacy and side effects.
Results. From the 32 articles included, a total of 2331 children with MIS-C were studied. The main pharmacological approaches were immunomodulatory therapy, i.e., intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) (77.3%), steroids (60.5%), and a combination of IVIG and steroids (41.3%). IVIG and steroids were found to be potentially effective and safe treatments for MIS-C. Combination of IVIG and steroids was found favorable in severe cases with higher recovery rate. Refractory treatments include second dose of initial treatment and biological response modifier drugs like anakinra, tocilizumab, infliximab. A small number of studies investigating supportive treatment consisted of vasoactive, inotropic and anticoagulation. The mortality rate was 1.28% and only three studies reported side effects from the treatment. Evidence of outcome from GRADE were mostly at moderate, low and very low levels.
Conclusions. This review provides preliminary evidence to support the current standard treatment practices in managing MIS-C pharmacologically. However, comprehensive investigation is required using clinical trials to provide stronger outcome evidence.

Authors: Hutahaean Grace Dumamawarni , Susanto Martin , Napitupulu Tiopan , Pangihutan-Siahaan Andre Marolop , Wirjomartani Beny Atmadja
Published: October 2023

Background. Leprosy in children is a strong indicator of the recent failure of leprosy control and disease transmission programs. For twenty-two years, leprosy has been declared `eliminated as a public health hazard,` yet new cases continue to emerge in endemic areas. The new case detection rate among the child population was recorded at 4.4 per million children. Because of their underdeveloped or neonatal immunity and exposure to intrafamilial contacts, children tend to be the most vulnerable population.
Case. We present a case of the borderline lepromatous type of leprosy in a 9-year-old Indonesian male patient with the chief complaint of three stiff fingers on his left hand that began four years ago and hypopigmented patches on the back and buttocks that began five years ago. In this case, there was a history of leprosy in his mother`s sister, who had died. Leprosy in the patient was suspected of possibly being transmitted from his mother`s sister who had intense contact with the patient. The results of bacteriological examination with Ziehl- Neelsen staining of tissue scrapings found acid-fast bacilli. He was treated with a multibacillary multidrug regimen for 12 months. Periodical observations after the patient received the treatment revealed no new spots on the patient`s skin, some of the previous hypopigmented patches seemed to fade, especially those on the back.
Conclusions. In the absence of an effective vaccine, early diagnosis and treatment are critical in preventing disability and deformity and reducing the physical, psychosocial, and economic burden of the disease.
Can early life interventions prevent food allergies?
Authors: Ertuğrul Aysegül , Soyer Özge
Published: October 2023

Background. The incidence of food allergies is increasing all over the world. Prevention strategies intend to reduce food sensitization risk and subsequent allergies. In this review, we will discuss the recent data concerning different geographic regions for the prevention of food allergies in children.
Methods. This review provides recommendations for the prevention of food allergies based on the recent data available in the PUBMED database in English (up to December 2022).
Results. The best strategy to prevent food allergies is regarded as the early introduction of allergenic foods to an infant`s diet. A healthy and diverse diet is recommended for infants and their mothers, in accordance with the family`s eating habits and regional food culture, rather than avoiding certain foods or using supplements. Avoiding common food allergens in the maternal diet during pregnancy and/or breastfeeding is not recommended. Exclusive breastfeeding is generally recommended for all mothers for at least 6 months. There is no specific association between exclusive breastfeeding and the primary prevention of any specific food allergy. Where a breastmilk substitute is needed, the best alternative should be chosen according to the infant`s nutritional needs. There is no substantial evidence to support the use of hydrolyzed or soy formula in infancy against food allergies or sensitization.
Conclusions. Feeding patterns in infancy play an important role in the risk of developing food allergies. Existing strategies to prevent allergies are relatively ineffective and further research is needed to figure out strategies for food allergy prevention, particularly in high-risk infants.

Authors: Salomón Lara Lázaro , García Luis Isauro , Herrera-Covarrubias Deissy , Manzo Jorge , Fisher Jaime , Coria-Avila Genaro A
Published: October 2023

La enfermedad de Parkinson es una afección neurológica crónica que se caracteriza por la presencia de anormalidades en el movimiento, tales como bradicinesia, rigidez, temblor, inestabilidad postural y trastornos de la marcha y del habla. En lo que respecta al tratamiento, por años ha sido aceptado que la terapia de reemplazo de dopamina es la opción a seguir rumbo a la disminución de los síntomas, lo cual implica la administración de fármacos como la levodopa y otros agonistas dopaminérgicos. El tratamiento crónico con levodopa o con agonistas dopaminérgicos se encuentra asociado con una diversidad de complicaciones motoras y no motoras secundarias, entre las que se suele añadir a la categoría amplia de desorden del control de impulsos. Dentro de ésta, la denominada conducta sexual compulsiva, que incluye a la hipersexualidad y las parafilias, encuentra un incremento del riesgo de desarrollo, con importantes características ansiogénicas para los pacientes o sus familiares y con especial importancia dadas las dificultades legales y daños a terceros que podría suscitar. Por lo anterior, en esta revisión abordaremos brevemente las características de tales perturbaciones conductuales y su relación con la terapia de remplazo de dopamina en la enfermedad de Parkinson.

Authors: Ngoc Dung Nguyen , Chien Thang Vu
Published: October 2023

In Vietnam, contactless services in the hotel business are still relatively new. We provide an overview of the research on contactless services and related matters in this study. Following the fishbone or cause and effect diagram first introduced by Kaoru Ishikawa in 1968, the theoretical framework was developed on the five hotel internal factors (5M) that influence the implementation of contactless services in Vietnamese hotels. Our research is grounded in this theoretical framework to investigate the actual condition of providing contactless services at two 5-star hotels, the JW Marriott Hanoi and the Novotel Hanoi Thai Ha. To accomplish the purpose of the research, we used a variety of methodologies, including desk study and analysis; participant observation; questionnaire surveys; and in-depth interviews. Based on the findings of the research, the paper provides discussions and recommendations for the deployment of contactless services in Vietnamese hotels.

Authors: Abid Arooba , Siddique Ali , Fatima Nisa
Published: October 2023

This study aims at exploring comparative linguistic variation across Pakistani and Chinese learners’ English argumentative essays using a multidimensional analysis (MDA) approach. This study uses a quantitative approach to describing co-occurring linguistic features. The corpus comprising 400 Pakistani and Chinese learners’ essays used in this study has been electronically derived from an online source, ICNALE. The representative corpus has been tagged and analysed through MAT tagger. This study addresses how the language of Pakistani and Chinese learners vary comparatively linguistically; it also explores their linguistic characterization which distinguishes their variety through their co-occurring linguistic features using MD analysis by utilizing five dimensions. The study is restricted to only two countries i.e., Pakistan and China, and the size of the data is considerably more restricted to one sub-register of essay writing, namely, argumentative essays. The results indicate that the language of Pakistani learners’ essays is informational but Chinese learners’ essays are involved in dimension 1 Chinese learners’ essays are narrative whereas Pakistanis learners’ essays are non-narrative on dimension 2. Dimension 3 specifies that Pakistani learners’ essay writings implement that the text is independent of context and contains significant nominalizations while Chinese learners’ essay writings are context-dependent in nature. Dimension 4 indicates that Chinese learners’ essay writings are more explicit and persuasive specifying extensive use of modal verbs than Pakistani learners’ writings. The nature of Chinese learners’ essays is abstract, formal, and technical while Pakistani learners’ essays are non-abstract, objective, and natural on Dimension 5. This study has shed light on how learners acquire new words and expressions from reading different texts that identify various lexical grammatical aspects writers employ and serve as the fundamental source of variety in their language. The categories of dimensions are developed based on particular linguistic features that are over- or under-utilized by assessing the statistical data.

Pemanfaatan Zeolit Alam Ende Sebagai Katalis dalam Pirolisis Polietilena dari Sampah Plastik
Authors: Bani Gregorio Antonny
Published: October 2023

Pyrolysis is one way to minimise plastic waste. This process requires a catalyst such as zeolite. Natural zeolite needs to be activated to increase its catalytic activity. Therefore, this research was carried out by activating Ende's natural zeolite using 1% hydrofluoric acid (HF), 6M hydrochloric acid (HCl), and 1M ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) to be used as catalysts in the pyrolysis of polyethylene from plastic waste. Pyrolysis was carried out at operating temperatures of 300 oC, 350 oC, 400 oC, and 450 oC, and treated with a catalyst composition of 0%, 5%, 10%, and 15% from 1000 grams of polyethylene. Based on the results of the study, it was concluded that activation of Ende's natural zeolite could change the chemical and physical properties of Ende's natural zeolite, including crystallinity, surface area, pore volume, and pore radius, and acidity to serve as a catalyst. Treatment of 10% catalyst from 1000 mg of plastic at an operating temperature of 400oC reduced the activation energy to 4.371.1 cal/mol and produced 80% more paraffin fraction in polyethylene pyrolysis oil from plastic waste.

The one of the trading instruments is forex or foreign exchange. The forex market provides various commodities, one of which is XAU/USD. XAU/USD dataset with daily, h4, h1 time frames obtained from the MetaTrader 5 application via the FBS broker. Predicting forex prices is difficult because there are various factors that influence it, so data mining methods are needed to predict increases or decreases. Naïve Bayes is a method and logic that can be applied in making predictions. So the research objective of this final project is to apply naïve Bayes methods and logic in predicting the price of XAU/USD on the daily, h4, h1 time frames. The application of the Naïve Bayes method uses several libraries to support research, namely pandas, jcopml, and sklearn. In naïve Bayesian logic research, this is called from the sklearn library using gaussianNB. In this study, the performance reference uses an f1 score matrix because the number of false positives and false negatives is not tight (symmetrical). This study produces values for each time frame obtained from the confusion matrix formula with f-scores of 49.99% (daily), 53.52% (h4), 55.44% (h1).

Authors: Kadhem Husam Ali
Published: October 2023

The depreciation of the Iraqi dinar against the US dollar, reaching low levels and causing disruptions in the local markets, has had detrimental effects on individuals and companies, particularly those with limited income and the poor. The local currency approached around 1600 dinars per dollar, after the official exchange rate had stabilized at around 1450 dinars per US dollar. This depreciation in the value of the Iraqi dinar can be attributed to financial speculation among currency traders, which directly affected exchange rates and illicit dollar smuggling operations. Bank transfers are also important alongside financial transactions, especially in light of current economic developments in the 21st century. To prevent currency smuggling, financial corruption, and money laundering, the Central Bank of Iraq suspended four Iraqi banks, which used to receive half of the central bank's daily sales, based on a recommendation from the US Department of Treasury. Additionally, there has been increased scrutiny on the participating banks in the currency auction, with approximately 35 banks involved. These measures have significantly impacted dollar sales and led to a shortage in the market, resulting in the depreciation of the Iraqi dinar.The significance of this research lies in the impact of bank transfers in the context of fluctuations in exchange rates in the local financial markets in Iraq. The Iraqi economy faces various challenges, including structural imbalances in economic sectors and increased reliance on foreign currency to cover high import demands. The research hypothesis asserts that bank transfers are used as a means to regulate banking operations and achieve monetary stability, which the Central Bank of Iraq seeks amidst exchange rate fluctuations. The aim of the research is to highlight the importance of bank transfers as a study of exchange rate fluctuations in Iraq and to elucidate the role of bank transfers in implementing the new electronic platform program.

Marriage is a culture that grows based on three values: religiosity, customary, and national. In Indonesian culture, the marriage of the Uluan Musi community per these three values has changed the implementation procedure. These changes occurred in the structure and culture, which impacted the customary law system. Therefore, this research aims to observe how changes in Islamic law culture in customary practices occurred in the Uluan Musi community. This qualitative study collects data from traditional and religious leaders through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation. The results indicated that the changes in the Islamic legal culture in the marriage practice were caused by the fading of the meaning of Islamic legal values (i.e., profanization) of marriage customs due to cultural coexistence and globalization. These changes cause social leeway with the potential to lose cultural identity. Therefore, legal remodification must be carried out to maintain the continuity of Islamic law.
Dynamic Flight Stability of a Hovering Flapping-Rotary-Wing Vehicle

Published: October 2023

The aerodynamic performance and mechanisms of the compound layout of flapping-rotary-wing (FRW) vehicles have been studied extensively in the literature, but open-loop stability has rarely been involved. To bridge this gap, a hovering stability analysis of a 30 g FRW prototype has been conducted. Averaged-model assumptions and small-disturbance linearization method were used to formulate the model, in which the stability derivatives were calculated using numerical simulation. The modal characteristics and physical causes were studied with the techniques of eigenvalue and eigenvector analysis and compared with those of a helicopter. The results show that the FRW has two unstable modes: an unstable oscillatory mode and a slow divergence mode. The former mode features a horizontally circling trace of the center of gravity, coupled with a periodic oscillation of pitch and roll angles, which is dominated by a coupling roll (or pitch) moment produced by a forward (or sideward) speed perturbance. The latter mode features a decreased (or increased) wing rotation speed accompanied by an increasing downward (or upward) motion speed of the body owing to a strong dependence between the aerodynamics and the passive rotation of the wing. Longitudinal–lateral coupling and rotational–vertical coupling mark the distinction in modal characteristics between the FRW and the helicopter. The model and results of this study may offer a reference for the stability analysis and control design for FRW vehicles.

Objectives:

This study aims to determine the types of refractive errors commonly seen in patients with Vernal keratoconjunctivitis (VKC) among the pupils in the Jos East Local Government area of Plateau State, Nigeria.

Materials and Methods:

A school-based descriptive study using a multistage sampling technique was carried out for 4 months. The visual acuity of the pupils was checked using a non-illuminated Snellen’s chart at 6 m, assessing one eye at a time. Individuals with visual acuity worse than 6/12 had pinhole tests and refraction done. Statistical analysis was done using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 20 and frequencies, simple percentages, and Chi-square were used to compare proportions.

Results:

A total of 400 participants were seen during the study, out of which 84 participants had vernal keratoconjunctivitis. Of these, 51 (60.7%) had refractive errors. Astigmatism was the most common form of refractive error seen in our study 26 (31%), myopia was seen in 15 (17.9%) whereas hypermetropia was the least seen in 10(11.9%). Simple astigmatism was seen more in individuals with acute stage of VKC 9 (75.0%) whereas compound astigmatism was commonly seen in participants with chronic stage of VKC (42.9%).

Conclusion:

Astigmatism was the commonest form of refractive error seen in these patients and simple astigmatism was the commonest variant of astigmatism seen.
