Authors:   Ophthalmology Department, “Venizeleio” General Hospital of Heraklion, D Dimopoulos , M Markakis ,   Ophthalmology Department, “Venizeleio” General Hospital of Heraklion
Published: July 2022

Background: Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD) is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system caused by antibodies preferably to the optic nerve, spinal cord, and certain brain regions. Symptoms may occur at the same time or vary over a period of time. The best prognostic factor of conversion from optic neuritis to clinical definite NMO is the presence of a serum antibody to aquaporin-4 called NMO-IgG. Suspicion of NMO should be high in patients who present with simultaneous bilateral optic neuritis or recurrent attacks and in those with vision of light perception or worse or who are with acuity of 20/50 or worse after optic neuritis.

Executive Function Index: A Scale Adaptation Study
Authors: KAFADAR Hatice , ARICAN Hasibe
Published: July 2022

This study aimed to adapt the Executive Function Index (Spinella, 2005) to Turkish. The psychometric characteristics of the scale were determined in the sample groups where the participants were university students. The linguistic equivalence of the scale was tested with the participation of 88 people, while data from 605 participants was used to test the construct and criterion validity and reliability of the measurement tool. 383 females and 219 males participated in the study. The age range of the participants was between 16 and 31, with a mean age of 21.93 (SD=2.47). In order to identify the psychometric characteristics of the Executive Function Index, Explanatory factor analysis, Linear regression analysis, Pearson correlation analysis, and t-test were performed, and the Cronbach’s alpha internal consistency coefficient was calculated. The participants were administered the Frontal System Behavior Inventory, Barrat Impulsivity Scale Short Form, and Interpersonal Reactivity Index to test the criterion validity of the Executive Function Scale. The explanatory factor analysis conducted for construct validity showed that the Turkish version of the scale had the same number of sub-tests as the original Executive Function Scale, and the Cronbach’s alpha reliability coefficients of the Turkish scale ranged from .54 to .76. The sub-tests of the scale were determined as impulse/impulse control, strategic planning, organization, empathy and motivational impulse. The linear regression analysis showed that age significantly predicted the total score, while gender did not predict the total score significantly. The t-test results showed that gender was significant only in impulse/impulse control and empathy sub-tests and had a moderate effect size. The results of the Pearson correlation analysis performed to test the criterion validity of the scale were mainly significant. The findings were largely similar to the original form of the scale. As a result, the research findings indicated that the scale could be used to measure the executive functions of Turkish university students.

The study objectives were to investigate the relationship between risk management and financial performance of MFIs during the Covid-19 pandemic in Uganda and to investigate the relationship between the microfinance social mission and financial performance of MFIs during the Covid-19 pandemic in Uganda.

Methodology: This was a cross sectional study that involved 53 respondents conveniently selected from six (6) MFIs from Central Uganda working in the area of credit. The data was collected during the late period of the year 2021 using a self –administered questionnaire and analysed using STATA 12 to generate both descriptive and inferential statistics.

Results: The study findings revealed the existence of a significant positive relationship between risk management and the social mission (0.88; ); risk management and financial performance (0.91; ); the social mission and financial performance (0.88; ). Collectively, the predictor variables explain 85% of the variation in microfinance financial performance (Adjusted R-squared 0.85; p<0.00).

Recommendations: It is recommended that while designing risk management strategies, the focus be put on the social mission that will translate in the attainment of the financial objective. Attempts should be made by policy makers to help MFIs design strategies that integrate the dual bottom line with the triple bottom line.

Published: July 2022

Nowadays, customers globally are turning to online shopping for almost everything, which is considered a new norm expected to remain indefinitely.

Thus, this study aims to identify the effect of reference groups, positive online comments, perceived risks, perceived benefits, and food safety consciousness of online food delivery ordering (OFDO) adoption. The convenience sampling technique was used to collect data from Malaysian consumers. The questionnaire survey data was collected from 288 respondents using the structural equation modelling-partial least squares (SEM-PLS) method. This study shows that reference groups, positive online comments, perceived benefits, and food safety consciousness positively affect the purchase behaviour of online food delivery services. Among all factors, the perceived benefit of online food delivery ordering (OFDO) has the largest effect on consumer behaviour (f2=0.273). Customers prefer using OFDO due to the application’s user-friendly interface, variety of choices, ease of ordering from anywhere and anytime, better discounts, rewards, and cashback.
The Interaction of Receptive Poetics and Psycholinguistics: On the Way to the Synergetic Effect
Authors: Klochek Hryhorii , Foka Mariia
Published: July 2022

The connection between traditional literary methods and psychological science has long been of interest to researchers, particularly the problem of interaction of poetics as a ,science of artistry with psycholinguistics is especially relevant. The prospects of this approach are explained by the fact that language as the main building material of literature is an act of mental activity. The purpose of this paper is to substantiate the synergetic effect of the interaction of receptive poetics and psycholinguistics in the study of the literary text artistry. The depiction of the expressive system of Pavlo Tychyna’s landscape miniature The Rain has been done by way of studying the recipient‘s psychology of text perception. In the poetic text, many techniques have been identified that evoke figurative representations in the recipient’s mind, thus forming a complete visual picture. It has been analyzed how the picture of rain gradually emerges in the reader’s imagination: from the first drops to the strengthening and subsidence, ending with a cathartic state. It has been observed how figurative representations generate the accordant emotional states. The particular attention is paid to the functionality of the tool termed as the principle of the reverse funnel. The analysis of P. Tychyna’s poem The Rain with the use of the tools both of receptive poetics and psycholinguistics has demonstrated high efficiency of such a binary approach, thus confirming its promising perspectives in contemporary philological research.
Art and Real Life: Trauma and Reconciliation in The Garden of Evening Mists by Tan Twan Eng
Authors: Chow Sheat Fun , Abdullah Sarena , Lee Yuen Beng
Published: July 2022

This essay discusses the employment of selected art forms and their effectiveness in portraying trauma and reconciliation in Tan Twan Eng’s novel, The Garden of Evening Mists ,(2012), employing the concepts of trauma by Caruth (1996), focusing on the inadequacy of language to articulate trauma. The trauma model features most prominently by Caruth argues that traumatic events are never known directly. Any knowledge of these past events is only a form of reproduction of the original. Therefore, trauma is a ‘paradoxical experience;’ what is most traumatic is that which does not appear in conscious memory— this inability to know challenges the reliability of language to represent the full extent of trauma. However, Tan’s novel shows that the problem of representing trauma can be countered in forms of art that function as a medium to convey and release silenced trauma. While trauma escapes language, personal memories become collective memories when commemorated in art forms. Letting go of the past is achieved by bringing it to the present in art forms. Tan’s work significantly adds to the analysis of trauma in literary works. By employing the dominant tropes of Japanese art forms in the novel, Tan employs strategies that demonstrate that literature and art can narrate silenced experiences and traumatic historical events and escapes articulation.
The Role of Water Stress in Tree Growth
Authors: Kramer Paul
Published: July 2022

Urban trees often are subjected to soil and atmospheric stresses that reduce growth and vigor, increase susceptibility to insects and diseases, and cause premature death. Environmental stresses occasionally injure trees directly, as by freezing, but most injury is caused indirectly by inhibiting essential physiological processes. Water stress is particularly important because it is so frequent and affects so many processes. The injury caused by water stress can be reduced through prevention of stress by irrigation, postponement by development of extensive root systems and control of transpiration, and by selection of trees with a high tolerance of dehydration. More attention should be given to selection of species and individuals with high tolerance of the more destructive stresses such as water deficit, air pollution, and unfavorable soil conditions. This will require the cooperative efforts of arborists, physiologists, and tree breeders.
Research on The Determinants of Internal Audit Effectiveness in Business
Authors: GÖKOĞLAN Kadir
Published: July 2022

Internal auditing is a collection of activities performed to bring value to corporate operations. It is critical for organizations to have effective and efficient internal control in order to continue their operations and compete with rivals. The management of the firms is also responsible for the implementation and monitoring of effective audit operations. Therefore, top management must be thorough and open in their approach to internal audits. As a result, internal audit efforts are critical for businesses.

This study was conducted from a management standpoint to establish the elements that actively contribute to the effectiveness of effective internal audit activity in organizations. The efficacy of audit units in organizations, the quality of audit work, organizational independence, career advancement prospects, and senior management support for the internal audit unit were all attempted to be assessed using the criteria. In the study, he conducted face-to-face interviews with enterprises in the Diyarbakir Organized Industrial Zone. The research found that the competency of internal auditors in firms, the quality of audit work, organizational independence, and career advancement prospects existed and that enterprises had a statistically significant and beneficial influence on the efficacy of audit units. However, statistical analysis revealed that there is no relevant association between the businesses' senior management's support and the efficacy of the enterprises' internal audit units and that the enterprises have no influence on the performance of the internal audit units.

Objectives: The present study assessed the microbial population dynamics and physicochemical test during the spontaneous fermentation of pearl millet flour and buttermilk blend.Materials and Methods: Pearl millet flour samples were taken from the local market of Rewari and Mahendergarh district of Haryana, whereas buttermilk samples were taken from nearby villages of Mahendergarh, Haryana. pH and total titratable acidity were estimated for physicochemical analysis of the blend sample. Microbiological analysis has been carried out to estimate the microbiological population dynamics of samples using different media i.e., 1) Potato Dextrose Agar; 2) Plate Count Agar; 3) Lactobacillus MRS agar; 4) Eosin Methylene Blue Agar.Results: The subject study mainly deals with the physicochemical test and microbiological analysis of pearl millet, i.e., pH ranges from 3.0 to 6.84 where it was lowest in buttermilk sample at 72 h, and highest is 6.84 in flour sample at 0 h, temperature ranges from 13°C to 31.5°C at different conditions (shaking, refrigeration, room temperature). Total titratable acidity as gm/lactic acid was recorded in the range of 0.4 to 0.96, lowest in the blend sample at 0 h, and highest in the blend at room temperature (72 h). In the samples of the blend the total aerobic count, Lactic acid bacteria count, E. coli count, were up to 7.65 (log cfu/ml), up to 6.8 (log cfu/ml), and 3.48 (log cfu/ml), respectively after fermentation.Conclusion: A preliminary study results suggest that the best storage condition is refrigeration for all the samples. However, on 72 h of fermentation LAB counts were increased. This is only a preliminary study, a study with a large sample and much-organized methods need to be investigated for the outcome of these different conditions of microbial dynamics.

Hand Drawing for Designers
Authors: Seidler Douglas R. , Korté Amy
Published: July 2022

Hand drawing remains a powerful tool in conceptual design. Hand Drawing for Designers: Communicating Ideas through Architectural Graphics will show you how to use hand drawing to explore multiple design responses quickly and intuitively and to develop a successfully responsive design solution. The text approaches the act of drawing as a communication tool, valued within design firms for conceptual design, design development, and client presentations. The concepts and methods in the text build, progressing from an introduction to drawing rationale to two- and three-dimensional drawing techniques and presentation drawings. Designed to strengthen the user's understanding of visual representation and technical drawing by visual teaching, Hand Drawing for Designers provides the skills for translating three-dimensional ideas into two-dimensional drawings that effectively communicate design concepts.
Aplicación de herramientas moleculares en mejora genética forestal tropical
Authors: Domínguez Liévano Alexis
Published: July 2022

A nivel mundial se ha observado una transformación en la actividad forestal desde hace varios años, concentrándose en dos fenómenos. La primera, en las necesidades de obtener madera para el abastecimiento del área industrial mediante el establecimiento de plantaciones forestales. Y la segunda, entorno a la protección ambiental de los recursos naturales. Esta revisión se centra en los conocimientos precursores de la biotecnología forestal en la aplicación de nuevas herramientas tecnológicas. La metodología de búsqueda de información se efectuó por relevancia del tema, con investigaciones precedentes y actuales, conjugando sólidos argumentos al entendimiento básico de las tecnologías emergentes en la mejora genética forestal tropical. Del análisis de revisión, se concluye que las limitantes son los escasos recursos económicos destinados a las investigaciones de mejora forestal en busca de utilizar las nuevas herramientas moleculares disponibles, como una estrategia de manejo sostenible y sustentable de los recursos forestales tropicales.

Published: July 2022

Se realizó un diagnóstico del sistema de agronegocios del camu camu en la provincia de Alto Amazonas- Región Loreto enmarcado desde el ambiente institucional, organizacional y tecnológico, además de analizar las transacciones y nivel de coordinación; complementando con la descripción del entorno interno y externo del SAG. La investigación se realizó en la provincia de Alto Amazonas, departamento de Loreto, aplicando el estudio en los distritos de Jeberos, Lagunas, Santa Cruz y Yurimaguas.  Se utilizó el Análisis Estructural Discreto (AED), como metodología para contextualizar de forma sistémica el ambiente institucional (evaluación de los principales hitos e importancia para el sistema), tecnológico (descripción de rendimientos, producción y nivel tecnológico utilizado) y organizacional (identificación y descripción de los principales actores) en donde se desarrolla el SAG del camu camu. Asimismo, se realizó una evaluación del entorno interno y externo SAG de camu camu mediante el Diamante de Porter que describió a los protagonistas y evaluó su posición competitiva. Se concluyó que a nivel organizacional y de coordinación, los actores cuentan con transacciones no alineadas y mal aprovechamiento de ventajas básicas y avanzadas que perjudican el desempeño del SAG camu camu en la región.
