Political rights are often grouped together with civil rights, they are usually subject to the same regime of legal protection, and some of the basic rights, such as freedom of expression, can be classified in both categories. Regardless of the above, the concept of political rights has an autonomous meaning, as demonstrated in this paper, in terms of definition, applicable international standards and their implementation. Unlike individual civil rights, political rights, such as right of people to self-determination, freedom of assembly, or electoral rights, can only be effectively exercised in union with others, through a political party, non-governmental organization, or other interest group. They are related to the democratic vision of human rights, which primarily includes the right to freely shape the political system. The absence of a developed doctrine of political rights, which are not the subject of a separate focus, indicates a lack of consensus among the Covenant signatories, which can be attributed to their predominantly political character.

The idea of the existence of a special institution that would deal with the protection of citizens' rights is very old. It should be emphasized that human rights, according to a series of international declarations and conventions, are universal, innate and inalienable rights that belong to every individual based on the simple fact of birth. Therefore, it is necessary to implement these attributes consistently in practice. In connection with this fact, the institution of the protector of citizens represents a very important mechanism for the protection of citizens' rights, but at the same time, a mechanism for eliminating all harmful consequences caused by the violation of the aforementioned rights.

A exposição a produtos químicos presentes no meio ambiente podem afetar as vias moleculares genéticas e epigenéticas, o que leva a alterações no crescimento e desenvolvimento de organismos. Entre essas substâncias químicas, os disruptores endócrinos são uma preocupação especial, pois seres humanos são largamente expostos a esses produtos químicos. Vários produtos químicos ambientais conhecidos, incluindo ftalatos e bisfenol A (BPA), são classificados como disruptores endócrinos. Eles podem similar, bloquear ou modular a síntese, a liberação, o transporte, o metabolismo e a ligação ou eliminação de hormônios, o que pode desencadear a puberdade precoce central em crianças do sexo feminino. Puberdade precoce é descrita como o início do desenvolvimento de características sexuais secundárias antes dos oito anos de idade em meninas. O objetivo deste estudo é revisar a literatura médica dos últimos anos que analisaram as associações entre a exposição ao BPA e aos ftalatos e a idade do início da puberdade em meninas.

It was found that Amazon products (Alexa™, Echo™, Halo™), EMRs, fire extinguishers, genome sequencing test, on-line pharmacies, remote patient monitoring, provided economic value, while emergency medical service membership programs, fire alarm subscription services, helicopter emergency medical services, home fire insurance policies, home fire sprinklers, and home security systems were not found to have provided economic value. Tele-health (virtual office visits) would provide economic value if most tele-health visits replaced existing in-person visits and the low cost virtual didn’t drive demand for unnecessary visits. Robotic surgery technologies provide economic value if fully utilized (high patient demand to reduce overhead costs per procedure) in a facility with little excess capacity as long as it did not compete with non-robotic surgical offerings at the present facility. AEDs provide economic value if appropriately placed in high demand locales based on future probability of use.

Malaysia is focusing on the agricultural sector, especially the palm oil industry, for economic development and employment opportunities. It is recognized that agriculture offers huge potential for creating thriving businesses within Malaysia. With full and active support from the government, there are insured big opportunities for existing and “would-be” entrepreneurs. The palm oil industry also brings myriad benefits to small farmers because farms are part of the overall supply chain. However, reinvesting in agribusiness needs a pool of young, innovative, committed, and enthusiastic local entrepreneurs. There are also characteristics unique to agribusiness that must be considered. Specifically, there are five elements present that make it different from other types of businesses: the requirement of related skills and knowledge, uncertainty due to variations in production, its unique cultural background, the possibility of political intervention and involvement, and its highly competitive structure.

Using qualitative research methods, we have clarified the content of internal audits and the effectiveness of internal audits. A literature review has shown that the Political Institutions factor has not received much research attention in Vietnam. That's why we identified the gap and conducted this research. Data collected from interviews with 20 experts working in the field of accounting and auditing were analyzed using King's (2004) format and Cresswell's (2003) analysis process. The analysis results have shown that the Political Institutions factor, and its measurement factors are regulatory capacity, political stability, legal effectiveness, police accountability, and corruption control impact on internal audit effectiveness. Next, the study conducted a survey with 80 employees working in the field of accounting and auditing. This is a research step to ensure transparency in determining influencing factors. The results of this survey are consistent with the direct interview method. This means that the effectiveness of internal audits is affected by political and institutional factors.

BOUNDARY VALUE PROBLEM FOR THE EQUATION OF UNSTEADY THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY IN A NON-CYLINDRICAL REGION
Authors: Zainullin R.G. , Fazullin Z.Yu.
Published: September 2023

The application of the method of decomposition by eigenfunctions of a self-adjoint differential operator to solving a non-stationary heat transfer problem with a phase transition in a non-automatic formulation under special initial conditions is presented for the example of the solidification process in a continuous medium. The one-dimensional problem is solved in spherical coordinates. Solving of the problem begins with its transformation to a problem in a domain with fixed boundaries, then a finite integral transformation with an unknown kernel is constructed to solve the transformed problem, the finding of which is associated with the formulation and solving of the corresponding spectral problem through degenerate hypergeometric functions. The eigenvalues and eigenfunctions are found, as well as the inversion formula for the introduced integral transformation, which makes it possible to write out an analytical solution to the problem. In the course of solving the problem, the parabolic law of motion of the interface of the two phases is established. Problems of this type arise in the mathematical modeling of heat transfer processes in construction, especially in permafrost areas, in oil and gas production during drilling and operation of wells, in metallurgy, etc.
STUDY OF THE TEMPERATURE DEPENDENCE OF THE SYMMETRICAL GRAIN BOUNDARY ENERGIES ON THE PLANE (110) IN ALUMINUM
Authors: Fomin E.V.
Published: September 2023

In this work the energy of symmetric tilt and twist grain boundaries in the range of grain misorientation angles from 0 to 180◦ and temperatures from 100 to 700 K in pure aluminum is investigated. The bicrystal systems with different grain tilt/twist angles are maintained at constant temperatures of 100, 400, or 700 K by molecular dynamic method and the energy of each grain boundary is calculated. The results show that the minimum grain boundary energy decreases as the temperature increases from 100 to 400 K; but the energy may decrease, remain practically unchanged, or even increase with further heating to 700 K. The average grain boundary energy obtained by averaging the energies of the resulting grain boundary structure variations at constant temperature grows with increasing temperature from 100 to 700 K for random boundaries with initially high energies. In the case of special grain boundaries with small Σ values, the average energy will be practically unchanged. To describe the continuous energy dependence of symmetric tilt and twist boundaries on temperature, an approximation by an forward propagation of artificial neural network is proposed. The neural network is trained and tested on atomistic simulation data and shows high predictive ability on test data and to describe the boundary energy in the temperature range from 100 to 700 K.

Published: September 2023

В статье проблемы развития товарного экспорта трех постсоветских нефтеэкспортеров – Азербайджана, Казахстана и России и трех крупнейших нефтеэкспортеров Персидского залива – Ирана, Кувейта и Саудовской Аравии исследуются на основе анализа дезагрегированных экспортно-импортных потоков с использованием подходов экономики сложности и структуралистской школы, учитывая при этом углеродный след экспортных товаров. Сделан вывод, что в низкоуглеродном мире возможности нарастить экспорт для постсоветских экспортеров нефти за счет его диверсификации в товары, наиболее технологически близкие к текущим производственным возможностям страны, сравнительно ограничены. Нефтеэкспортеры Залива получат при реализации такой стратегии заметно бóльшие преимущества с точки зрения размера потенциальных экспортных рынков. Для обеспечения устойчивости экономического роста России и Казахстану необходима диверсификация в новые экспортные товары, что требует создания современных производственных мощностей.

Развитие методологии анализа эффективности венчурного инвестирования на основе опционного и нечетко-множественного подходов
Authors: Баранов А.О. , Музыко Е.И. , Павлов В.Н.
Published: September 2023

Статья посвящена развитию методологии анализа эффективности венчурного инвестирования на основе опционного и нечетко-множественного подходов. Венчурное финансирование играет огромную роль в процессе перехода инноваций из стадии исследований в производство инновационной продукции и услуг. Особенностью инновационных проектов является высокая неопределенность в достижении положительных технологических и экономических результатов в ходе их реализации. В связи с этим для оценки коммерческой эффективности таких проектов целесообразно использовать методы, позволяющие учитывать факторы неопределенности, влияющие на динамику показателей проекта. Одним из таких методов является аппарат нечетких множеств, а также опционный подход. Объединение методологии реальных опционов с анализом методом нечетких множеств позволяет, по нашему мнению, получать более обоснованные результаты по оценке финансовой эффективности инновационных проектов. В статье предложены основные направления развития теоретико-методологического подхода к оценке эффективности инновационных проектов, финансируемых за счет средств венчурного капитала, с применением опционного и нечетко-множественного анализа.

Published: September 2023

The broadcast media use indigenous languages in presenting some programmes in south east Nigeria yet, the level of patronage of some of these languages by indigenes or inhabitants of the regions where these languages operate especially the Igbo indigenous language remains grossly low. Worrisome also is the fact that UNESCO has enlisted the Igbo language as one of the Nigerian languages that is endangered. This study examines the use of educational broadcasting as a virile tool in safeguarding and developing the Igbo indigenous languages in south east Nigeria. The objectives of this study are to: determine the extent to which the broadcast media programmes on indigenous language have contributed in the awareness level of endangered language in southeast states Nigeria, find out if there are broadcast media programmes that educate the audience on how to speak, read and write the Igbo Language and ascertain other factors responsible for the poor usage of the Igbo language in the south east Nigeria. Survey research design was used with 379 copies of questionnaire as the major instrument of data collection. Two theories were used for the study; the development media and the Agenda setting theories. Enugu Metropolis was used as the case study. Data generated were analyzed using simple percentages and frequency distribution tables. Chi- square was used to test the hypothesis. Findings from the study are discussed within the context of much larger body of knowledge on educational broadcasting and the link with endangered Igbo language.

In a day today life there is a tremendous development in Electric vehicle technology. Amount of energy stored in EVT vehicle is one of the important issues regarding it. Energy density is the amount of energy that can be stored in a battery per unit of weight or volume. Higher energy density means that an EV can travel further on a single charge, making it more convenient for drivers. The transportation sector is generally thought to be contributing up to 25% of all greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions globally. Hence, reducing the usage of fossil fuels by the introduction of electrified powertrain technologies such as hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), battery electric vehicle (BEV) and Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV) is perceived as a way towards a more sustainable future. When we use IC engine, there is a large amount of pollution, At a time when the fuel prices are rocketing sky high, the daily running cost of a vehicle and its cost of ownership are hitting the roof and there is a dire need to protect our environment, alternative means of transport are few. Electric vehicle are slow expensive with limited range the solution comes in the form of electrical vehicle.

Importance: Adolescents and adults report that their sensory integration and processing differences affect their occupational performance and quality of life, thus requiring effective sensory-focused interventions. Researchers have yet to investigate this population’s experience of occupational therapy interventions designed to remediate these challenges.

Objective: To explore the perceived experience of adolescents and adults with respect to (1) response to intervention, (2) strategies offered to manage sensory differences, and (3) need for services on completion of an intervention.

Design: Retrospective, qualitative study.

Setting: Zoom or phone call.

Participants: Eleven adolescents and adults with sensory integration and processing differences who had previously completed occupational therapy interventions.

Intervention: Sensory-based intervention based on the principles of Ayres Sensory Integration® (ASI) and the Sensory Therapies and Research Frame of Reference.

Outcomes and Measures: A semistructured interview to obtain data, followed by an in-depth analysis using an inductive coding process to group initial open codes into themes and common subthemes

Results: Open codes were grouped into three core themes: (1) therapist-related factors (what the therapist did in treatment); (2) client-related factors (what the client experienced); and (3) follow-up (future needs of the clients). Four main subthemes of the client–therapist relationship emerged: (1) therapeutic alliance; (2) education and knowledge; (3) strategies, tools, and resources; and (4) future needs.

Conclusions and Relevance: This study provides a perspective on the experience of adolescents and adults specific to the impact of a sensory-focused occupational therapy intervention on their daily lives. This will help occupational therapists when designing interventions for current and future clients.

What This Article Adds: This study highlights the need for further research addressing effective sensory-based interventions for adolescents and adults. It also captures which components of intervention clients deemed helpful and identifies potential targets for future intervention.
Seasonal dynamics of karst surface dissolution based on a limestone tables experiment (Slovak karst)
Authors: Gessert Alena , Hochmuth Zdenko
Published: September 2023

Chemical denudation in karst is the basic process of karst relief formation. However, it is influenced by many factors of varying intensity that depend on the climatic conditions and characteristics of each given location. Based on measurable results of weight loss of limestone tablets, we monitored the intensity of chemical denudation in two areas of the Slovak Karst, Silica Plateau and Jasov Plateau that are situated in the most developed karst plateau region of Slovakia. Both experimental sites are similar in terms of geographical conditions, thus comparable between them. In each locality, we placed three sets of standardized tablets at a depth of 50 cm, 20 cm, and on the soil surface. The research began in December 2016 and has continued up to the end of 2021, with drying and weighing of the samples taking place each three months. The lowest weight loss was recorded on samples placed on the surface (in both sites) and the highest at the depth of 20 cm. This is due to biological activity in the soil during the growing season (2.65 - 2.82 mg/cm
2/year). The highest weight losses over time are observed at the turn of winter and spring, where the effect of snowfall and snow melting water plays an important role. The average dissolution rate in the spring season is between 3.78 and 4.12 mg/cm
2/year, whereas in winter is from 3.24 to 4.06 mg/cm
2/year.

Purpose

To evaluate the whole brain, hippocampus, thalamus, and lentiform nucleus by volumetric apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) histogram analysis in paediatric patients with hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE).

Material and methods

This retrospective study included 25 patients with HIE and 50 patients as the control group. Diffusion-weighted imaging was obtained at b-values of 1000 mm²/s. The histogram parameters of ADC values, including the mean, minimum, maximum, 5th, 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th, and 95th percentiles, as well as skewness, kurtosis, and variance were determined. The interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was used to assess the inter­observer agreement.

Results

ADCmin, ADCmean, and ADCmax, as well as the 5th, 10th, 25th, 50th, 75th, 90th, and 95th percentiles of ADC values for the HIE group were all lower than those of the control group (p < 0.001) in the volumetric histogram analysis of the hippocampus, thalamus, and lentiform nucleus. In the whole-brain histogram analysis, ADC min, and the 50th and 75th percentiles of ADC values did not differ significantly, while other parameters were lower in the HIE group. The ROC curve revealed that the ADC histogram parameters of the hippocampus provided the most accurate results for the diagnosis of HIE. The area under the curve (AUC) of the 95th percentile of ADC values was the highest (AUC = 0.915; cut-off 1.262 × 10-3 mm²/s; sensitivity 88% and specificity 84%).

Conclusions

Volumetric ADC histogram analysis of the whole brain, hippocampus, thalamus, and lentiform nucleus with b-values of 1000 mm²/s can serve as an imaging marker for determining HIE.

This study assessed the constraints that militate against the wellness seeking behavior among adults in Abia and Imo States, Nigeria. The study employed a descriptive survey design using a quantitative approach, targeted at adults who were recruited through multistage and simple random sampling across Abia and Imo States in Nigeria. A semi-structured questionnaire was used to collect data. Descriptive statistics were used, and linear regression model was used to test for associated factors while t-test and z-test were used to test for significant differences between the two states. All data analysis were done at 5% level of significance. The study revealed that the main constraints to wellness seeking behavior were financial problems, dislike of modern medicine, large family size; belief of not getting sick, being too young, and wellness activities are unnecessary. Hence, it was concluded that there is a need for targeted public health interventions. These interventions should focus on improving access to health facilities and resources and addressing the competing demands that limit engagement in wellness activities in Nigeria.
EDUCATIONAL AWARENESS OF THE HISTORICAL HERITAGE OF SERRA DA CAXEXA
Authors: Regina Ribeiro de Araújo Medeiros Leize
Published: September 2023

The following article aims to direct the studies of archaeological sites in the Agreste region of Paraíba, more specifically in Serra da Caxexa, in the municipality of Casserengue – PB, 154 km from the capital, João Pessoa, developing the cataloguing, mapping and description of prehistoric sites existing there in order to contribute to their preservation process. Archaeological research in the State of Paraíba finds evidence of more than 500 archaeological sites, among these are the rock art sites “Pedra do Caboclo” and “Pedra do Letreiro”, belonging to the cultural universe of the Agreste Tradition, indicating strong evidence from the passage of indigenous groups that populated the Eastern Curimataú region before the European colonization process, being probably represented by the Sucurus of the Tarairiú nation with semi-nomadic characteristics. Cave paintings are classified as anthropomorphic, zoomorphic and geometric/schematic, generally in reddish tones resulting from the use of iron oxide. Unfortunately, the lack of knowledge about these archaeological sites leads to their destruction. Therefore, it is necessary to make all segments of society aware of the importance of the region’s archaeological heritage, seeking to await them for the knowledge of future generations and encourage new research that would rescue the historical value of local and regional culture. Thus, as an awareness of society in general, as a way of clarifying the importance of the historical and cultural heritage that surrounds them.
Vozes de encruzilhadas indianas

O objetivo deste artigo é propor uma rediscussão epistemológica do meu fazer antropológico, diante das limitações que o pensamento ocidental traz para as reflexões sobre religiões e culturas marcadas por crenças não cristãs. Proponho, a partir de uma “antropologia de demanda” (SEGATO, 2021) uma nova maneira de perceber a Umbanda Brasileira e seu papel na nossa vida cultural. Dialogando com referências indianos, acadêmicos e religiosos, procuro ampliar a compreensão dessa religiosidade a partir de um referencial simultaneamente mais interno e mais ampliado. Revejo momentos inéditos da viagem que fiz até a União Indiana em 1996, quando do trabalho de campo do meu doutorado em Antropologia e situações da pesquisa do meu mestrado, em 1992, com a Umbanda Branca em Brasília.
