The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) method has been widely applied in numerous studies related to water allocation worldwide. However, in Vietnam, very few works have addressed the determination of priority orders and water allocation proportions using this method. This paper focuses on the application of AHP, integrated into the decision analysis module for Excel tool (DAME), to determine the priority order and proportion of water resource allocation for the Bang Giang - Ky Cung river basin using various input data, such as water usage, production values, growth rates, etc. The results, based on scenarios of socio-economic growth up to 2025 for Cao Bang, Lang Son, and Bac Kan provinces, taking into account four main water user categories (industry, livestock, agriculture, aquaculture), and considering the entire basin, indicate that the highest proportion of water resource allocation is for the agriculture, approximately 34%, followed by livestock at 33%, industry at 22%, and finally aquaculture at 11%. The findings of this paper can serve as a reference for near-future planning to promote the development of water sectors, increase production capacity, and effectively manage water resources to meet socio-economic development targets for the period from 2021 to 2025 in the provinces located within the basin.

Smart factories have demonstrated the effectiveness in leading technological trends and enhancing social production efficiency. Consequently, smart factories have attracted the attention of not only business owners and policymakers but also scholars in many fields of research. However, the conception of a smart factory varies significantly depending on the approaches. This discrepancy translates into a notable divergence in creating a development strategy for a smart factory, encompassing aspects such as technology selection for investment, the enhancement of human resource strategies, and the overall development strategy for the entire enterprise. Furthermore, this disparity poses challenges in proposing a consistent science and technology policy to promote the trend of intelligent production. To address these shortcomings, the authors conducted an exhaustive literature review of published works on smart factories toestablish a comprehensive concept and delineate the primary characteristics of smart factories, providing a fundamental framework for strategic planning and investment policies. This research offers a foundation for formulating a set of criteria to assess the intelligence of manufacturing factories.

Professional development fulfils dual functions in fostering career advancement and enhancing staff retention. For librarians, this development becomes even more crucial to acquire the requisite skills and knowledge in the digital age. This study presents the professional development needs of staff at the Learning Resource Centre, Can Tho University, Vietnam. This study used C.P. Alderfer’s Existence Relatedness Growth (ERG) Theory of Motivation - Existence, Relatedness, and Growth (1969) [1] as a theoretical framework. A mixed-method approach was utilised to determine the professional development requirements of the staff and the associated influencing factors. A survey questionnaire was disseminated to all 28 staff members (a 100% sample) of the Learning Resource Centre via online and in-person forms. Furthermore, fifteen individual interviews were conducted to obtain detailed insights. The research findings underscore that the majority of the staff at the Centre express a keen interest in professional development. Moreover, the research pinpointed three challenges affecting career development: budgeting (both self-financed and state-sponsored), time, and familial obligations. These results aid in formulating strategies to address the professional development necessities of staff at the Learning Resource Centre in the digital age. Additionally, the insights augment the compendium of reference resources for subsequent research in human resource management and devising strategies to retain highly skilled personnel.

Published: December 2023

Artan sayıda araştırmada ergenlerde kişilik bozukluğunun varlığına vurgu yapılmaktadır ve kişilik bozukluklarını kuramsal olarak açıklayan ve kanıta dayalı bir tedavi yaklaşımı sunan önemli modellerden biri Şema Terapi yaklaşımıdır. Bu araştırmada, ergenlerde kişilik bozukluklarının etiyolojisine yönelik olarak erken dönem uyumsuz şemalar ile ilişkisini incelemek amaçlanmıştır. Araştırma örneklemini 2018-2019 eğitim öğretim yılında İstanbul ilindeki ortaöğretim kurumlarında bulunan 14-18 yaş arası 520 öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Amaçlara yönelik olarak Demografik Bilgi Formu, Ergenler İçin Psikolojik Bozukluklar Envanteri Kişilik Bozuklukları Formu ve Young Şema Ölçeği Kısa Form-3 kullanılmıştır. Erken dönem uyumsuz şemalarla kişilik bozuklukları arasındaki ilişkilerin tespiti için Pearson momentler çarpımı korelasyon katsayısı analizi ve erken dönem uyumsuz şemaların kişilik bozukluklarını yordama düzeylerini belirlemek amacıyla Adımsal (stepwise) Doğrusal Çoklu Regresyon analizleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda ergenlerde erken dönem uyumsuz şemaların kişilik bozuklukları belirtileri ile önemli derecede ilişkili olduğu görülmektedir. Erken dönem uyumsuz şemaların kişilik bozukluklarını %19 ila %53 aralığında değişik oranlarda yordama gücüne sahip oldukları ve her kişilik bozukluğunun kendine özgü erken dönem uyumsuz şema profillerinin olabileceği saptanmıştır. Analiz sonuçları ve literatür bir bütün olarak değerlendirildiğinde, ergenlerde kişilik bozukluklarının şema kuramı yaklaşımı kapsamında erken dönem uyumsuz şemalar ile önemli oranlarda açıklanabildiği anlaşılmaktadır. Yetişkinlerde kişilik bozukluklarında gözlemlenen erken dönem uyumsuz şemalara ek olarak ergenlerde farklılaşabilen bazı şemalar dikkat çekmekte ve bunların kişilik bozukluklularının gelişim süreci ile ilişkili olabileceği düşünülerek daha ayrıntılı incelenmesinin alana katkı sağlayabileceği düşünülmektedir. Mevcut bulgular, ergenlerde kişilik psikopatolojisini kavramsallaştırmak ve tedavisine katkı sağlamak amacıyla literatür ışığında tartışılmıştır.

Authors: Dobkowska Bogusława
Published: December 2023

Jednym z warunków uzyskania pozytywnej decyzji o warunkach zabudowy jest spełnienie warunku określanego jako tzw. zasada dobrego sąsiedztwa. Zasada ta funkcjonuje w polskim porządku prawnym od ponad 20 lat. Celem niniejszego artykułu będzie analiza kierunku, w jakim zmieniają się uregulowania, ale też sposób interpretacji obecnych unormowań, w szczególności przez sądy administracyjne. W tym celu zostanie zastosowana metoda dogmatyczno-prawna. Analiza prawna zostanie dokonana przede wszystkim w oparciu o regulacje prawne i orzecznictwo sądów administracyjnych, a także poglądy doktryny.
Rozważania związane z zasadą dobrego sąsiedztwa poprzedzone zostaną przedstawieniem regulacji prawnych określających, kiedy wymagane jest uzyskanie decyzji o warunkach zabudowy, jaki jest charakter prawny tej decyzji oraz jakie warunki muszą być spełnione, aby wydana została decyzja ustalającej warunki zabudowy. Następnie analizie poddane zostaną takie koncepcje jak działka sąsiednia, analizowany obszar, kontynuacja funkcji.
Pozycja ustrojowa Prezydenta Rzeczypospolitej oraz Prezydenta Republiki Portugalii na gruncie konstytucji z 1935 i 1933 r. – studium historyczno-komparatystyczne
Authors: Sobiech Jan
Published: December 2023

Celem artykułu jest zbadanie pozycji ustrojowej Prezydenta Rzeczypospolitej na gruncie konstytucji kwietniowej z 1935 r. oraz Prezydenta Republiki Portugalii na gruncie konstytucji z 1933 r. w oparciu o analizę prawnoporównawczą oraz historyczną, przede wszystkim z uwzględnieniem zakresu i charakteru ich kompetencji w powiązaniu z prerogatywami, a także sposobem elekcji obu głów państw. Autor skupia się przede wszystkim na uprawnieniach o charakterze wewnętrznym, pozostawiając na boku te związane z dziedziną stosunków międzynarodowych oraz obronnością i bezpieczeństwem państwa. Celem artykułu jest także poprawna klasyfikacja systemów politycznych funkcjonujących ówcześnie w Polsce i Portugalii. Wydawać by się bowiem mogło, że pozycje ustrojowe konstytucyjnych organów państwa powinny być skorelowane z istniejącymi w tych państwach systemami politycznymi. Konstatacja ta okazuje się jednak pozorna, zwłaszcza uwzględniając kontekst polityczny ewolucji oraz rzeczywistej pozycji obu głów państw, gdzie element ustrojowy silnie przeplata się z elementami faktycznego decyzjonizmu.

Glosa aprobująca do wyroku Naczelnego Sądu Administracyjnego z dnia 30 czerwca 2023 r., sygn. akt III FSK 1475/22
Authors: Namieciński Bartosz
Published: December 2023

Niniejsza glosa odnosi się do problematyki postępowania w sprawie określenia wysokości opłaty za gospodarowanie odpadami komunalnymi w przypadku niedopełnienia przez właściciela nieruchomości obowiązku selektywnego zbierania odpadów komunalnych. Głównym celem badawczym opracowania jest ocena obecnie obowiązujących regulacji prawnych związanych z koniecznością powiadomienia przez podmiot odbierający odpady komunalne o przyjęciu tych odpadów jako niesegregowane (zmieszane) odpady komunalne wójta oraz właściciela nieruchomości, jako przesłanki postepowania w sprawie określenia wysokości j opłaty za gospodarowanie odpadami komunalnymi.   W niniejszej pracy wyrażono aprobatę wobec stanowiska Naczelnego Sądu Administracyjnego, że  za powyższe powiadomienie nie może zostać uznane zawiadomienie właściciela nieruchomości o wszczęciu postępowania administracyjnego. W wyniku przeprowadzonych badań potwierdzono, że obowiązek powiadomienia o niewłaściwej segregacji nie spoczywa na organie wykonawczym gminy, lecz na podmiocie odbierającym odpady komunalne. Powyższa kwestia ma szczególne znaczenie, ponieważ tylko prawidłowo dokonane powiadomienie o niedopełnieniu obowiązku selektywnego zbierania odpadów jest pozytywną przesłanką wszczęcia postępowania w sprawie określenia wysokości opłaty za gospodarowanie odpadami komunalnymi według stawki podwyższonej. W pracy zastosowano przede wszystkim metodę case study, uzupełnioną o metodę dogmatyczną. Analizie poddano obecnie obowiązujące ustawodawstwo polskie oraz orzecznictwo sądów administracyjnych w dziedzinie prawnopodatkowej.

Rethinking the Nexus: Eco-feminist Discourse on Femininity, Nature, and the 'Other' in Morrison and Hurstonâs Works
Authors: Aziz Amna , Naeem Suman , Nisa Zaib un
Published: December 2023

The patriarchal norm is seen as being threatened by powerful women (Normandin, 2020). This study pens down the ecofeminist discourse found in Morrison's and Hurston's literary works. This scrutiny examines how these significant writers confront the devaluation of the feminine, nature, and the "Other," focusing on Morrison's "Beloved" and "Song of Solomon" and Hurston's "Their Eyes Were Watching God." Morrison deftly interweaves the challenges of African American women with the natural environment In a similar vein, Hurston emphasizes the interconnectedness of race, gender, and ecology in her writing, which is firmly anchored in African American folklore and tells a story that links women's experiences to the natural world. Amid social and ecological issues, this scrutiny invites readers to reevaluate the ties between women, nature, and society systems by highlighting the fundamental interconnection addressed in their works.

The research area of corporate social responsibility (CSRR) has seen rapid growth in the past decade. However, the real impact of CSRR on firm value has been inconclusive, often due to its qualitative data. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the relationship between corporate social responsibility (CSRR) and firm value. For this purpose, the data of listed firms in the Pakistan Stock Exchange 100 index were collected from 2010 to 2021. Regression Analysis was conducted on panel data to accomplish the main objective of the research. The study finds that Corporate social responsibility in the case of Pakistan is adopted by 67%, consisting of all the listed firms. The results of regression reflect an important positive association between the behaviour of CSRR and firm value. This result is also associated with other researchers, who suggest that investors pay a premium in the capital market in a socially responsible manner to achieve long-term profitability. The study also found that CSRR had a value-enhancing power to adopt charitable behaviour via legitimacy, Stakeholders, and signalling theory.

Challenges and Opportunities to the Profession of Social Work in Pakistan: A Review
Authors: Hussain Sajjad , Farid Sumera , Alam Amir
Published: December 2023

Social work education at the postgraduate level is faced with various academic and non-academic issues. Despite the compatibility of these methods with our culture, the paucity of local research and knowledge related to our community which are necessary for the uplift of the profession is impacting its progress. So far, Pakistan has no national and provincial council of social workers that could link them with the international social workers’ Federation whereby it could build their professional competence and capacity. This gap between theory and practice can be filled by developing a link between the two domains. Lack of public awareness regarding the field and the deteriorating role of inadequately trained field supervisors working for different organizations are other contributing factors. The study suggests that professional social workers should be inducted into all the social welfare organizations so that the new undergraduate students could be interested in taking admissions in BS social work degree.

Endometriosis is an inflammatory disease that occurs in glands outside the endometrium. Interleukin 17 (IL-17) is a proinflammatory cytokine degrading Th17 cells, which play an essential role in several inflammatory diseases. IL-17 expression is upregulated in serum, peritoneal fluid (PF), and endometriotic lesions from patients with endometriosis. Usually, treatment for endometriosis is dienogest. However, it has many side effects if used long-term. Fruit and seeds of Phaleria macrocarpa have various critical biological activities in the form of extracts such as antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activities. This study aims to analyze the effect of comparing flavonoid fruit extract of Phaleria macrocarpa and dienogest on IL-17A levels in endometriosis mice. A total of 35 endometriosis model mice were divided into seven groups, namely the group of healthy mice (without any treatment), the endometriosis group, and the endometriosis group, which were given the treatment of flavonoid fruit extracts of Phaleria macrocarpa and dienogest. The sample used in this study was peritoneal fluid. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) measured IL-17A levels in each observation group. The hypothesis was tested using One-Way ANOVA analysis with SPSS software version 26. This study found a significant difference (p<0.05) between the mean values of the positive control group and the negative control group. There was also a significant difference (p<0.05) in the mean value IL-17 between the treatment groups that were given sphalerite macrocarpa and dienogest extracts. Flavonoid fruit extract of Phaleria macrocarpa had a significant effect on reducing IL-17A levels in endometriosis model mice, and there is a significant difference with dienogest. Thus, the flavonoid fruit extract of Phaleria macrocarpa can potentially treat endometriosis by decreasing inflammatory factors.
Iron Deficiency Anaemia and Beta Thalassaemia Trait in Anaemic Pregnant Women.
Authors: AL – Shammari Haider H.
Published: December 2023

Back ground: Anaemia is one of commonest health problems in antenatal care units of developing countries and contributes significantly to increased maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality.Patients and methods: During the period from 1st of July 2007 to the end of October 2007, hundred anaemic pregnant women attending the gynaecology and obstetrics department in Al- Yarmook teaching hospital in Baghdad and 20 apparently healthy pregnant women,aged between 17 - 46 years as a control were included in this study. Anaemic women included in this study fulfilled the criteria of haemoglobin concentration of less than 110 g/L in first trimester and 105g/L in the second and third trimesters, no history of acute or chronic illnesses, not receiving any treatment & without any family history of haematological disorders. These women were randomly selected in relation to age , parity ,trimester of pregnancy & social status. Ten mls of venous blood samples were aspirated from each pregnant women in the studied group , two mls were put in ethylendiaminetetra acetic acid (EDTA) tube and analyzed for peripheral blood smear , reticulocyte count & haemoglobin A2 ( Hb A2 )using standard methods for hematological investigation .While the remaining 8 ml were put in a plain tube to evaluate serum iron , total iron binding capacity & serum ferritin. Serum iron, total iron binding capacity was done by colometric method, while serum ferritin was done by immunoenzymatic assay and hemoglobin A2 (HbA2) level by haemoglobin electrophoresis.Results: Peripheral blood smear study revealed a hypochromic microcytic anaemia in 81% of cases, 8% of cases showed macrocytic anaemia, 8% a normochromic normocytic anaemia while the remaining 3% of cases showed a dimorphic picture .Iron deficiency anemia constitutes 79% of the cases confirmed by serum ferritin. Only two cases ( 2% ) had elevated level of HbA2 .Serum iron, total iron binding capacity & serum ferritin had significant differences in those cases with low social status, increasing parity & increasing gestational age (trimesters).Iron deficiency anaemia was not found to have a significant association with increasing age , while patients with para 4 & more, in the third trimester & low social status were more significantly affected with iron deficiency anemia .Conclusion: Iron deficiency anemia was found in 79% of anemic pregnant females confirmed by measurement of serum ferritin level. There were a significant difference between parity; social status and gestational age with the incidence of iron deficiency anemia.β-thalassaemia trait constitute only 2% of anemic cases in the studied sample
Characterization of lymphocyte subsets as a tool of assessment of histological disease activity pattern in ulcerative colitis
Authors: Ghazi Hayder F.
Published: December 2023

Background: In Ulcerative colitis (UC), the presence of a persistently elevated number of T cells in the inflamed area with respect to the activity of the disease suggesting bad prognosis. This study was done to evaluate cellular immune response in different disease activity patterns and its possible implication in evaluation of disease activity.Materials and methods: This study included Forty seven archived paraffin-embedded samples of ulcerative colitis; these samples diagnosed and graded for disease activity. Then dualimmunofluorescence staining was used for phenotyping of lymphocytic infiltrate (CD3- CD19) and (CD4-CD8). A total and differential T cell as well as plasma cell count was recorded in these UC tissue samples. Non parametric Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare the median cell counts among different study groups.Results: There is higher lymphocytic infiltrate for all types of cells when UC samples compared with control samples with highly statistical significant difference, T cells represents the major constituents of colonic mucosal infiltrate (86.89%) and about 75.79% were CD4 positive T cells. T-cell subsets and plasma cell have high statistical significant difference (p≤0.001) according to histological grade. Furthermore, with the histological grade the highest association found with T lymphocytes (r=0.944) followed by T helper (r=0.821), T cytotoxic (r=0.653) and B lymphocyte (r=0.237).Conclusions: Qualitative and semi quantitative characterization of lymphocytes subsets was useful in the assessment of different histological grades of UC disease activity.

Diane Larsen-Freeman has had a substantial effect on how language is comprehended and taught. She has contributed to the evolution of language, pedagogy, and has had a worldwide impact on language educators through her groundbreaking research, innovative understanding of teaching methodologies, and influential publications. This article will examine the profound impact Diane Larsen-Freeman's work has had on my professional growth. I discuss issues and concepts such as language teaching methodologies, grammaring, the person of the teacher, Complex Dynamic Systems Theory (CDST) in second language development, wicked problems, and transdisciplinarity. Initially, I contextualize English education in Mexico and my personal experience in English language learning. In the second phase, I examine the impact of Larsen-Freeman’s work on my English teaching education in Mexico and the United Kingdom. I conclude by analyzing how her work has contributed to my current position as an applied linguistics professor in Mexico.
Rethinking Grammar Teaching: Dynamic Approach in Portuguese as a Foreign Language
Authors: Geraldes Xavier Lola
Published: December 2023

This text critically examines traditional methodologies for teaching grammar in the context of Portuguese as a Foreign Language (PFL). It proposes an alternative, eclectic approach, which can be used in any foreign language. Drawing on evidence from research and pedagogical practices, it highlights areas for improvement in current approaches, such as the decontextualization of linguistic structures and insufficient gradual progression in exercises. The paper suggests a teaching framework based on Motivating-Grammaring-Applying (MGA), aiming to embed grammar learning in meaningful, communicative contexts and develop grammatical proficiency beyond mere rule memorization. The MGA model foregrounds the importance of authentic texts, student-centric discovery learning, and the application of learned structures in diverse communicative tasks. The paper further emphasizes the potential of digital tools and the importance of integrating grammar learning with other linguistic and cultural skills. Ultimately, this study encourages PFL teachers to diversify their pedagogical strategies and reconsider the role of grammar teaching in language learning, aiming at empowering students for effective communication in real-world contexts.
