Published: September 2024

The study of air quality is of extreme importance for human health and quality of life, especially in large cities. One of the main indicators is the concentration of particulate matter (PM), namely, its composition and size. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are among the most dangerous compounds associated with PM because of their carcinogenicity and mutagenicity, with benzo(a)pyrene being analyzed and standardized as a priority pollutant. Hundreds of PAHs are divided into three groups: low, medium, and high molecular weight, and their relative presence in the gas and solid phases is determined by their properties and environmental conditions. PAHs emission sources are mainly related to low-temperature processes of natural and anthropogenic origin. The analysis of PAHs in both phases is a challenge for scientific researchers, mainly due to their low concentrations. The attempts are focused on development of methods that are both accurate and with high-resolution, and at the same time do not require long time and efforts for sample collection, preparation, analysis and data interpretation. The use of various filters, sampling techniques and analytical methods for identifying the PAHs therein, are mainly aimed on optimizing the overall analysis process and obtaining the most reliable results. Data for PAHs not only give information about the quality of atmospheric air on a global scale, but also allow identifying the sources of pollution and appreciate the health risk for the population. The latter allows to take management decisions how to improve the air quality and the environment.

Published: September 2024

This study examines the implementation of Universal Test and Treat (UTT) for HIV-positive individuals in Kenya, a strategy commonly referred to as Treatment as Prevention (TaSP). UTT is globally recognized for its effectiveness in reducing HIV disease progression, mortality, and transmission. Kenya's high HIV burden accounts for 4% of global infections and a prevalence rate of 5% by the end of 2022, as the country faces significant challenges in fully implementing UTT. The research attempted to respond the question, to what does the implementation of the universal test and treat policy support health benefits for HIV patients? Using the Theory of Change as a framework, the research employed a mixed-methods approach surveying healthcare workers through a cross-sectional descriptive survey design. The findings revealed convergent views on the benefits of UTT therapy, a moderate positive correlation, and a significant relationship between the implementation of UTT and increased health benefits. Implications in practice, programs should enhance the delivery of same-day ART initiation through simplified drug regimens to maximize patient adherence and outcomes. Policies that promote UTT could significantly enhance the quality of care through uninterrupted implementation. The use of mixed methods provided a comprehensive understanding of the impact of test-and-treat services. The study observed that developing tools to address potential limitations in the care cascade is crucial for enhancing the effectiveness of UTT and improving the overall management of HIV in Kenya.
Comparison of Two Storage Techniques on the Nutritional Composition of Onion Bulbs
Authors: H. M. Lawal, , I. A. Salau,
Published: September 2024

Onion (Allium cepa L.) has been valued as a food and medicinal plant since ancient times. It is widely cultivated, second only to tomato, and is a vegetable bulb crop known to most cultures and consumed worldwide. This study investigated the effects of two (2) storage techniques on the nutritional composition of onion bulbs. During storage periods, the onion bulbs deteriorate due to rotting, sprouting, black mould and physiological loss in weight, which have been a major problem for onion growers. The result of onion bulb after storage on a wooden platform shows the highest content of moisture (33.30% ± 1.24) followed by crude protein (23.62% ± 0.53), crude fibre (15%± 0.67), ash content (10.60% ± 0.63) and the lowest was obtained in the crude lipid (10% ± 0.68). The result of the proximate analysis indicated that the moisture content significantly differed between the fresh bulbs (35%) and the stored samples with a cemented floor having the lowest moisture content (20%). The loss of moisture from the bulbs during storage could be because the bulbs were stored in a dry and aerated environment that could subject the bulbs to loss of water. The losses in the onion bulbs may be reduced to a certain level through opposite storage methods. From the research, it could be concluded that a wooden platform on the floor is the best method of storage for onion bulbs.

Human resource management in the SME segment is a complex process that involves many different factors. The aim of this study is to define the significant attributes of HRM in SMEs and compare attitudes within the three most significant business sectors in the individual Visegrad Group (V4) countries. Empirical research focused on the attitudes of small and medium-sized enterprises was conducted in June 2022 in the V4 countries. Data collection was carried out by the external agency MNFORCE using the Computer Assisted Web Interviewing (CAWI) research method. Within this research, selected attitudes of SMEs in the field of human resource management in the three most important sectors within the individual V4 countries were examined. The sample size was represented by 995 respondents. Statistical hypotheses were tested using descriptive statistics and Z-scores at a significance level of α = 5%. A positive finding is that within the examined sample, SMEs consider people in the company to be the most important capital and perceive human resource management positively in the context of corporate management. As a negative trend, the insufficient evaluation of employee performance by SMEs can be noted, and the level of investment in human capital is significantly limited. The most common differences in SME attitudes were found when comparing manufacturing companies with the service sector and the trade sector, which is determined by the peculiarities of the transformation process in these companies.

Published: September 2024

This study investigates the impact of different leadership styles on project success, specifically examining the mediating role of team collaboration. This study utilized a diverse sample of 202 respondents representing five distinct national contexts: Jordan, Saudi Arabia, China, Australia, and the United Arab Emirates. PLS-SEM were employed to analyze the relationships between transformational leadership, transactional leadership, laissez-faire leadership, team collaboration, and project success. Our findings reveal that both transformational and transactional leadership styles are positively associated with project success. Conversely, laissez-faire leadership demonstrated a negative relationship with team collaboration but did not directly predict project success. Importantly, team collaboration was found to mediate the relationship between both transformational leadership and project success, as well as between transactional leadership and project success. However, the hypothesized mediating role of team collaboration between laissez-faire leadership and project success was not supported. These findings underscore the critical role of leadership style and team collaboration in achieving project success, offering valuable insights for organizations and project managers seeking to optimize leadership practices and foster collaborative work environments.

Published: September 2024

Artificial Intelligence (AI) techs help businesses turn internal and external data into real gold by analyzing customer data, extracting valuable insights, and offering individual solutions. The current study aimed to identify the mediating effect of artificial intelligence and digital experience on the relationship between neuromarketing (emotional appeal and memory encoding) and consumer behavior. The current study was applied to consumers within the MENA region by using an online questionnaire self-administered by (837) individuals. The study hypotheses were all accepted, and results confirmed that there is a mediating effect of AI and digital experience (DX) on the relationship between neuromarketing (emotional appeal and memory encoding) and consumer behavior. The degree to which digital experiences can modulate the association between emotional appeal, memory encoding, and consumer behavior, is not absolute; other factors and external cues that may be integral parts of a seller's marketing campaign remain relevant as well. The marketing strategy, quality of the product, prices, and effect of the enclosing environment influence consumer behavior from the digital dominion. Consequently, the comprehensive study of the digital situation is the premise of comprehending as well as using the mediating influence of digital experience on a consumer's mind. The study supports the idea that it is crucial for digital experience to bring up good feelings and provide opportunities for better information memory. Building visualizations that are appealing, interactive, and immersive to the users is intended to keep them interested and promote remembering. Through this approach, information on the brand can be associated with, recalled, and can become a significant decisive factor in future purchase decision-making.

Current lifestyle of people prone way to oxidative stress and metabolic disturbances in the pathophysiology leading to disorders such as diabetes mellitus (DM). Type 2 DM is always of concern as it accounts for 90% of all the diabetic cases. The drugs used in treatment include a wide variety of classification such as sulfonylurea inhibitors, biguanides, thiazolidinediones, acarbose inhibitors etc and DPP-IV inhibitors are a newer treatment regimen recognised and approved by agencies like Food and Drug Administration (FDA) from the year 2005 in the treatment of T2DM. Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-IV) enzyme primarily involved in the glucose homeostasis accounts for degradation of incretin hormones stimulating insulin secretion as a response to intake of food and maintaining blood sugar levels. Inhibitors of DPP-IV like Sitaglipitin, Vildagliptin, Aloglitpitin, Saxagliptin, Gemiglipitin, Teneglipitin etc prevents the degradation of hormones, thereby proving to be a method of treatment for T2DM. Cardiovascular complications including myocardial infarction, ischaemia, atherosclerosis associated in patients with T2DM are increasing on an alarming rate. Our review would focus on the analysing the effect of DPP-IV inhibitors in patients with cardiovascular defects and understand the mechanism involved.

Published: September 2024

The article aims to provide a cognitive tool that helps the family paediatrician to manage children with DSA through an increasingly aware way, so that the principle of universal right to education is best realized. The Italian Law no. 170 attributes the task of suspecting the presence of a DSA to schools of all levels (starting from nursery schools), but the paediatrician can also have the opportunity to participate in this "filter" activity by using suggestions from the child neuropsychiatrist during health assessments. For this reason, the risk factors and indicators correlated with the presence of the disorder are illustrated. The brief excursus on the validated tools for DSA screening allows the paediatrician to interpret their meaning better and, in particular cases, to use them directly. The article then clarifies how and by whom the diagnosis and subsequent certification must be made so as to implement didactic and educational interventions. Finally, the methods of training interventions addressed to all the teaching staff and the possible social and educational protections are illustrated.

A 5-year-old girl was evaluated for an intermittent thoracic sound present for two years, often associated with viral infections. The clinical examination was normal, except for mild mitral prolapse with minimal regurgitation noted in a prior echocardiogram. A recorded sound showed a rhythmic squeak of about 90 beats per minute. At follow-up, the sound was only audible with a stethoscope. A further echocardiogram confirmed the mitral prolapse. Generally, mild mitral prolapse can produce an audible often intermittent thoracic sound, but without significant risks. The recommendation was to improve hydration so as to reduce the sound intensity.
COMPARISON OF DOMESTIC AND AUSTRALIAN-ASIAN CLASSIFICATIONS OF EXPENDITURE ASSESSMENT OF SOLID MINERAL RESOURCES
Authors: Hovhannisyan A.H. , Shushanyan L.S.
Published: September 2024

In the field of geological studies and industrial development of subsoil, the most important regulatory document is the Classification of the deposit reserves and predicted resources of solid minerals. It defines the uniform principles for grouping, assessment and state inventory of solid mineral reserves according to the degree of their exploration, value and stages of preparation for the processing.
International reserve classification systems do not take into account the interests of the state as the owner of the subsoil, while in the current domestic classification, the owner of the subsoil is the state, and the owner of the reserves extracted from the subsoil is the subsoil user, and their interests are sometimes in conflict. Qualitative and quantitative indicators of the solid mineral reserves and their economic significance in international systems, in contrast to the domestic, are confirmed by audit and not by state expertise.
In this regard, the issue of transition in Republic of Armenia to the Classification of reserves of deposits and forecast resources of solid minerals harmonized with international systems, is an actual task, the solution of which will help attract investments, since the assessment will be conducted in accordance with international requirements, which will lead to increased interest and trust in subsoil use.
In order to harmonize the domestic Classification of reserves of deposits and predicted resources of solid minerals with international systems, the domestic and Australian-Asian classifications of costs for assessment of reserves is considered.
A comparative Table of the domestic and Australian-Asian classification of costs for assessing the mineral reserves is presented, which may also help to amend the mining regulations, which provides a legal basis for the transition of the existing subsoil use system to one adapted to international standards.
Professor Li Fenping's Approach to Treating Insomnia Based on Liver Theory
Authors: Liu Chunyan , Li Fenping , Tang Yinghui
Published: September 2024

Insomnia, classified under the category of “Bu Mian” in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), is a chronic condition characterized by the inability to obtain normal sleep. It is closely related to liver function. TCM treatment for insomnia follows the holistic principle of “integrating man with nature” and applies syndrome differentiation to implement individualized treatments. The safety of herbal medicine, combined with the absence of drug dependence, makes it highly favored by patients compared to Western medications. Professor Li Fenping believes that insomnia results from dysfunction in the liver’s regulation of Qi and blood, which prevents the Hun (ethereal soul) from returning, thus disrupting sleep. Based on clinical practice, she has identified four major liver-related patterns in insomnia: liver Qi stagnation with unsettled Hun, deficiency of heart and liver blood (or Yin) leading to poor nourishment of the Shen (spirit), liver fire excess disturbing the Hun, and blood stasis obstructing the meridians and unsettling the Shen. These distinct approaches to liver-focused treatment of insomnia have expanded the clinical applications of TCM in treating the disorder, with remarkable therapeutic outcomes. This paper presents Professor Li Fenping’s clinical experience in treating insomnia from the perspective of liver pathology.

Objective: To study the active ingredients and mechanism of action of "Herba Salviae Chinensis-Fructus Akebiae" drug pair in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) by using network pharmacology to provide theoretical basis for clinical application. Methods: The TCMSP (Traditional Chinese Medicine Systematic Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform) was used to obtain the active ingredients and targets of "Herba Salviae Chinensis-Fructus Akebiae", and the results were analyzed by the Genecard (https://genecard, org/) database, the Online Mendelian Inheritance Network (OMI), the Genecard database, the Genecard database, and the Online Mendelian Inheritance Network. We searched the Genecard (https://genecard, org/) database and the Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) database (http://omim. org/) for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) disease targets by selecting "NSCLC" as a keyword, and then obtained the results of the "Herba Salviae Chinensis-Fructus Akebiae" drug pair by using venn. We used venn to obtain the intersecting targets of the drug pair "Herba Salviae Chinensis-Fructus Akebiae" and NSCLC, and then used the STRING database and Cytoscape to construct a common target visualization network diagram. The gene (GO) enrichment analysis and KEGG enrichment analysis were realized with the help of metascape database and Microbiology platform. Results: Five active ingredients of Ishiminokan-Precipitant were obtained, and 3695 non-small cell lung cancer targets and 123 common targets were obtained. GO analysis showed that the process of GO enrichment was mainly related to the regulation of responses to inorganic substances, transcriptional regulatory complexes, cytokine receptor binding, etc. KEGG enrichment showed that the process of KEGG enrichment was mainly through Pathways in Cancer, ILRT, and cytokine receptor binding. KEGG enrichment showed that KEGG mainly exerted anti-cancer effects through pathways in cancer and IL-17 signaling pathway. Conclusion: Using the method of network pharmacology, it is proved that the drug pair "Herba Salviae Chinensis-Fructus Akebiae" can exert therapeutic effects on NSCLC through multi-components, multi-targets, and multi-pathways, and provides the theoretical basis for the clinical application.

Authors: Zhang Changming , Ming Dong , Ji Gang
Published: September 2024

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) refers to a group of chronic intestinal diseases, including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). These diseases cause chronic inflammation of the intestinal mucosa and wall, leading to symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal pain, constipation, fatigue, etc. Intestinal mucosal barrier can prevent microbial and other antigens enter the intestinal wall, maintain its healthy function. However, Immune system dysregulation, dysbiosis of the gut microbiome, and dysfunction of the intestinal epithelial barrier are key pathogenic mechanisms of IBD. The treatment of IBD remains an important medical challenge, the current treatment mainly by inhibiting immune activity, blocking certain inflammatory molecules. Although these methods can induce mucosal healing (MH), but infection and tumor adverse reactions associated with immunosuppression still need to solve. Therefore, researchers are exploring new treatments, to promote the healing of the intestinal mucosa and maintain intestinal health. This review summarizes the traditional treatment of IBD and the application of new technologies such as hydrogels, organoids, probiotics and prebiotics, which aim to safely and effectively promote mucosal barrier healing and restore intestinal function and balance.

Published: September 2024

Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPn) is a gram-negative bacterium, which is an opportunistic pathogen commonly found in the natural environment, and the infection rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae is increased in patients with underlying diseases such as diabetes mellitus, malignant tumors, liver and gallbladder diseases, and those who have received glucocorticoid therapy for a long period of time [1]-[4], which can cause urinary, respiratory, digestive, hematological, neurological and other multi-system infections with high morbidity and mortality rates [5]. Klebsiella pneumoniae infection involving the heart leading to purulent pericardial effusion has a lower incidence, and the literature in this regard reported extremely rare [6], mostly secondary to other parts of the infection, once suspected of pericardial abscess should be immediately performed pericardiocentesis to drain adequately, the application of saline to flush the pericardial cavity, can be thrombolysis of pericardial cavity with antibiotics or urokinase to speed up the process of treatment, to avoid the formation of constrictive pericarditis [7]-[9]. In order to improve clinicians' understanding of this disease, this article reports the diagnosis and treatment of a case of pericardial abscess caused by Klebsiella pneumoniae, with the aim of providing more case references for the clinic.

Authors: Kumar Suraj , Youseff Kukku
Published: September 2024

This paper seeks to work out the notion of 'inner space' followed by a brief discussion of the concept of 'self as its natural corollary. It shows how despite all odds, Shashi Deshpande's female protagonists constantly search for inner space. The way they resist and question their family situations characterized by gender discrimination, and male domination, and negotiate the socio-cultural and patriarchal setup, will be a special point of focus. The extent to which the protagonists succeed in procuring individual space for themselves will be ascertained on the basis of available textual evidence. An attempt will also be made to lucidly work out the stages of growth on the part of the protagonists in the process of their search for inner space (i.e. actualization of the self), which is completely infringed by patriarchal dictates and culturally prescriptive code evolved especially to tame, exploit, subdue and dominate women.

Junior High School Written Work Fluent and Accurate
Authors: Kaur Nagaraja Manupreet
Published: September 2024

The present study determined the written language performance of junior high school students at Bulan National High School S. Y.2023 - 2024. The study utilized a mixed methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative methods to assess the students' written language proficiency. Quantitative data were collected using rubrics to evaluate fluency and accuracy, while qualitative data were obtained through content analysis of the students' essays. The findings revealed that the students' performance in terms of fluency and accuracy varied, with areas of improvement identified in both aspects. Difficulties encountered by the participants included challenges in maintaining coherence and organization in their writing, as well as issues related to spelling accuracy and punctuation and capitalization usage. Based on the findings, an action plan titled "Enhancing Written Language Skills Program" was proposed to address these challenges and improve the students' writing abilities. The study's conclusions indicated that while the average performance level of the junior high school students in terms of fluency and accuracy met the set standards, there were variations in individual performance levels. The participants faced difficulties in fluency and accuracy, including challenges related to content fluency, organization of ideas, spelling accuracy, and proper punctuation and capitalization usage. To address these challenges, the study recommended differentiated instruction, explicit instruction on effective writing components, targeted practice activities, self - editing and revision strategies, a comprehensive curriculum integrating explicit instruction and authentic writing tasks, professional development for teachers, formative assessments for progress monitoring, fostering a supportive writing environment, and utilizing technology resources. In addition to the recommendations from the study, further research was recommended to investigate the effectiveness of different instructional strategies in improving students' writing skills. This research could compare explicit instruction with other approaches, such as inquiry - based learning or project - based learning, to determine their impact on fluency, coherence, accuracy, and organization. Conducting such research would provide valuable insights and evidence - based recommendations for educators to enhance their instructional practices and support students' development in writing with fluency and accuracy.
Research on Enhancing the Affinity of Ideological and Political Theory Courses in Private Universities in the New Era
Authors: He Ying
Published: September 2024

In the new era, the ideological and political theory courses in private colleges and universities have the problem of insufficient affinity. College students in the new era have distinct personalities, psychology, and value orientations, but some college students feel distant from ideological and political theory courses. They do not pay attention to, understand, or even resist "big concepts" and "big propositions" such as the path, theory, system, and culture of socialism with Chinese characteristics, as well as the lofty ideals and beliefs. Therefore, effective countermeasures must be formed to create a warm ideological and political classroom from the aspects of teaching content, teaching methods, teaching practice, and teacher team building, so as to increase the closeness of ideological and political theory courses among college students. Only in this way can the spirit of patriotism take root in the hearts of students and give play to the positive influence of ideological and political theory courses on the values of young college students.

Due to the change of times, amazing revolutionary changes have taken place in today's era. One of these is the Internet, due to which Marshall McLuhan's phrase in which he said that the world is a global village became meaningful. While defining 'World is Global Village', he had said that people will be connected with each other through some technology instead of meeting physically, which can receive and send information, like in today's time, social media. It is doing. No area of the world has remained untouched by the influence of online media. Today, daily essential items of human life are being bought and sold online. Every basic need of daily life can be demanded from anywhere and at any time while sitting at home. The traditional shopping, which has been going on since ancient times, where the buyer used to inspect and buy the goods himself or with the help of an associate, is changing at a rapid pace in the changing era. All the products available from shops to big malls are being purchased through web sites or apps. No one would have ever dreamed that a customer would be able to buy goods manufactured abroad directly after viewing them online, but all this became possible due to the technological revolution.

The report of the 20th National Congress emphasized: "Implement a national strategy to actively respond to population aging and develop the elderly care industry". It is estimated that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the number of elderly people aged 60 and above in my country will exceed 300 million, and my country will enter a moderate aging stage from a mild aging stage. Population aging has brought several practical challenges to social and economic development. How to judge China's aging situation? How to respond to the challenges of aging? How to ensure and improve the quality of life and life of the elderly? These issues have become the focus of attention from all walks of life. Therefore, we must recognize aging, grasp aging, and use aging to serve my country's modernization construction.

Published: September 2024

The geotechnical properties and litho-stratigraphic soil profile of soils in Ikole area of Ekiti State were investigated from the analysis of results of laboratory tests on disturbed and undisturbed soil and water samples obtained from 3 borings. The investigation revealed a subsurface stratification made up of reddish brown granitic clayey sand from existing ground level to a depth of 9m to 12.0m. This is underlain by a layer of mottled, brown, decomposed micaceous sand to a depth of 16.5m - 18m immediately after which are layers of mottled grey, decomposing quartzite sand to about 18.0m to 19.0m depth. This is further underlain by fragments of freshly weathered granitic rock to the termination depth of 19.5m. The consistency limits indicate LL of 44 – 58% and PL of 18 – 26% while the quick undrained triaxial tests indicate undrained cohesion within the range (128.4 - 157) kN/m2 and undrained angle of internal friction (15.0 - 20.0)0. Groundwater was encountered between 6.5m to 7.5m below the existing ground level during the course of soil exploration. The water in the area has pH values of 5.79 to 7.05, the chloride content values range between 12.0mg/l and 16.0mg/l while sulphate content varies from 6.12mg/l to 7.10mg/l.
