A Combined Transformed Variable for Population Mean Estimators When Missing Data Occur with an Application to COVID-19 Incidence
Authors: Thongsak Natthapat , Lawson Nuanpan
Published: November 2023

COVID-19 has killed many people and continues to be a major problem in all countries around the world. Estimating COVID-19 data in advance is helpful for the World Health Organization and governments in countries all over the globe to prepare the necessary resources. However, some of this information may be missing and needs to be dealt with before processing to estimation. The transformation method of an auxiliary variable can assist by increasing the performance of estimating the population mean. A combined transformed variable is suggested for estimating population mean when a study variable contains some missing values with uniform nonresponse, and it is applied in an application to data on COVID-19 incidence. The bias and mean square error of the suggested estimator are investigated and the performance is compared with existing estimators via a simulation study and an application to COVID-19 data. The results show that the suggested combined transformed estimators overtake existing estimators in terms of higher efficiency which yields the estimated value of total deaths of COVID-19 equal to 29497 cases.

Authors: Проскуряков М.Р.
Published: November 2023

Интеллектуальное наследие Льва Николаевича Гумилева, поражает воображение слиянием биологизма, исторической интерпретации и этнических исследований. В постсоветской России идеи Гумилева пустили корни, предлагая альтернативную линзу, через которую можно воспринимать идентичность, историю и цивилизацию. По мере того, как мир становится свидетелем возрождения России как важного игрока, изучение неоевразийства Гумилева приобретает актуальность.

Published: November 2023

En esta investigación, se abordó la problemática de los suelos salinos y el impacto negativo de los agroquímicos en el cultivo de banano clon Williams. El estudio se centró en evaluar la eficacia de la utilización de microorganismos y material vegetal para rehabilitar estos suelos salinos y mejorar el crecimiento inicial de las plantas de banano. El diseño experimental fue DCA, utilizando cuatro tratamientos diferentes y un total de 50 repeticiones. Los tratamientos consistieron en la aplicación de Trichoderma spirale, Trichoderma asperellum, NPK y carbón molido, junto con raquis picado en varias combinaciones. Estos tratamientos se compararon con un grupo de control que no recibió ningún tratamiento adicional. Los parámetros agronómicos evaluados fueron: altura de la planta, diámetro del pseudotallo y emisión foliar. También se evaluaron parámetros del suelo tales como: pH, C.E y M.O. Estos son indicadores cruciales del desarrollo y crecimiento de las plantas de banano. Los resultados demuestran significancia entre los tratamientos que utilizaron microorganismos y material vegetal, en comparación con el grupo de control. Esto sugiere que la aplicación de estas prácticas puede ser una estrategia efectiva para rehabilitar suelos salinos y promover el crecimiento saludable de las plantas de banano.
Envejecimiento cognitivo y Fonoaudiología: perspectivas en el quehacer terapéutico desde la evidencia
Authors: Salazar-Martínez Reinaldo , Ibáñez Ávila Génesis
Published: November 2023

Los cambios habituales en los procesos mentales durante el envejecimiento se conocen como envejecimiento cognitivo. Surge desde las modificaciones relacionadas con las estructuras y funciones cerebrales, tanto como fenómeno acumulativo experiencial como su relación con la reserva cognitiva. El lenguaje y la comunicación son los mediadores de esta capacidad en la persona mayor, siendo el profesional fonoaudiólogo quien posee herramientas para su abordaje. Se realizó un estudio cuyo objetivo fue conocer las diversas estrategias del quehacer fonoaudiológico en el proceso de envejecimiento cognitivo, desde la evidencia científica disponible en publicaciones. Investigación cualitativa, de diseño fenomenológico como revisión sistemática (desde la declaración PRISMA) analizó 15 artículos de las bases de datos Scielo, PUBMED, WOS y Redalyc. Se realizó un análisis de contenido y categorial, en base en los objetivos específicos del estudio. Como resultado se obtuvo que las evaluaciones fonoaudiológicas de la cognición se encuentran basadas en el procesamiento comunicativo funcional, con un enfoque modular y centrado en las necesidades que cada persona presenta. Desde las intervenciones, los abordajes cognitivo-comunicativo y audiológicos son los preponderantes en la actualidad, con un foco en las funciones y estructuras comunicativas, las actividades de la comunicación y la participación comunicativo-social. Se logra comprender la importancia del lenguaje como nexo entre la realidad de la persona mayor y su cognición siendo ésta un modulador cognitivo, aporte a la reserva cognitiva y factor fundamental de calidad de vida.

Published: November 2023

Es inevitable que hoy en día los estudiantes no hagan uso de las tecnologías de Inteligencia Artificial (IA), y es que ha sido una herramienta capaz de realizar diversas tareas, de forma que simula las funciones cognitivas realizadas por un humano, tales como: resolución de problemas, aprender un tema particular, etc. Sin embargo, así como existen estos beneficios generados por este tipo de innovación tecnológica, también existen riesgos que afectan el aprendizaje adecuado, incurriendo en prácticas donde carece la ética, como es el caso del uso del plagio. Por ello, el presente artículo científico tiene como objetivo general analizar los riesgos de la Inteligencia Artificial en la educación, de forma que se dió a conocer el manejo poco ético de las herramientas IA en el ámbito educativo, y sus repercusiones tanto en la integridad académica como en los estudiantes en cuanto al desarrollo de un pensamiento crítico. El tipo de estudio utilizado fue el documental, puesto que se realizó apoyándose en fuentes de carácter documental. Como resultado, se obtuvo que es fundamental que el estudiante desarrolle el pensamiento crítico, asimismo se recomienda que las instituciones educativas contemplen dentro de su marco normativo enunciados éticos y de resguardo de la información.
El Juicio en Ausencia del Procesado en los Delitos de AcciónPenal Privada
Authors: Amancha Criollo Diego Xavier , Medina Medina Vanessa Estefanía
Published: November 2023

Dentro del ordenamiento jurídico ecuatoriano, priman los derechos constitucionales, su respeto y garantía. Es por ello que, dentro del texto constitucional, se estipulan algunos principios que consolidan las garantías básicas del debido proceso que se deben seguir para conseguir la máxima tutela de derechos en el ámbito procesal. El sistema penal ecuatoriano es completamente garantista de derechos, sin embargo, aún en la normativa reformada en el año 2023, siguen existiendo preceptos que resultan inconstitucionales. Uno de estos, es que, en el caso de los procedimientos para el ejercicio privado de la acción penal, la audiencia puede llevarse a cabo sin la presencia de la persona querellada, conforme lo estipula taxativamente el artículo 649 numeral 5to del Código Orgánico Integral Penal. Lo cual contradice de lleno con el texto constitucional y con el bloque de constitucional que garantizan al procesado el ejercicio pleno de una defensa dentro de un juicio que se lleva en su contra. Para esto, se plantea como objetivo general, el analizar el juicio en ausencia del procesado en los delitos de acción penal privada, por lo que, se empleó una metodología con enfoque cualitativo, bajo la utilización del método exegético de investigación. Para obtener como resultado que, en efecto juzgar a una persona en su ausencia vulnera sus derechos constitucionales, pero en este caso en particular esta constitucionalidad es condicionada.

Published: November 2023

Introducción: La ortodoncia es un pilar esencial en la odontología que afecta tanto la salud bucal como el bienestar psicosocial de los pacientes. Aunque el Índice Objetivo de Evaluación de la Junta Americana de Ortodoncia (ABO) es una herramienta clave para medir la calidad del tratamiento, la relación entre este índice y la satisfacción del paciente no está claramente establecida. Objetivo: El estudio busca entender la relación entre la calidad del tratamiento de ortodoncia, evaluada mediante el índice de la ABO, y la satisfacción del paciente en la Universidad Autónoma de San Luis Potosí. Materiales y Métodos: Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo y analítico en el posgrado de Ortodoncia y Ortopedia Dentomaxilofacial de la Universidad Autónoma de San Luis Potosí. Se incluyeron 26 pacientes que cumplieron con criterios específicos y se les aplicó tanto el índice de la ABO como un cuestionario de satisfacción modificado. Resultados: De los 26 pacientes, el 54% tuvo un tratamiento "aceptable" según el índice de la ABO, mientras que el 80% reportó un alto nivel de satisfacción en el cuestionario. No se encontró una correlación significativa entre la calidad del tratamiento y la satisfacción del paciente. Discusión: A pesar de los resultados "aceptables" en el índice de la ABO, la satisfacción del paciente no se correlacionó con estos resultados. Esto sugiere que otros factores, como la relación médico-paciente y la comunicación, podrían jugar un papel más significativo en la satisfacción del paciente que la calidad técnica del tratamiento. Conclusiones: No se encontró una relación entre la calidad del tratamiento ortodóncico y la satisfacción del paciente. Los resultados sugieren la necesidad de implementar estrategias educativas para mejorar la calidad del tratamiento, sin perder de vista que la satisfacción del paciente también depende de otros factores más allá de la calidad técnica.

Este trabalho disserta sobre os princípios da Educação Especial, que foram dialogados durante o curso intitulado “FORMAÇÃO DE ATLETAS-GUIAS PARA O CICLISMO ADAPTADO”, o qual foi ofertado de forma digital pelos integrantes do Grupo Experimental De Pesquisa, Investigação e Análise Socioeconômica e Ambiental– GEPEIA, que está vinculado a Universidade do Estado de Mato Grosso-UNEMAT, câmpus de Sinop-MT. Os princípios trabalhados são: da normalização, integração e individualização. Com o objetivo de propor uma formação correlata a cultura da inclusão, que está em constante desenvolvimento e movimento, não apenas dentro dos espaços formais educacionais, mas, também nos espaços não-formais educativos/socioculturais. Esse curso surgiu como ação de articulação/mediação dos integrantes do Projeto Pedal Além da visão, que foi aprovado por meio do parecer Nº 741/2022 – PROEC. para correlacionar as ações praxistas desenvolvidas juntas aos sujeitos com e sem deficiência visual. O curso foi realizado durante o período de março a Junho de 2023, e houve a certificação de 20 horas, para cada participante. A análise do curso baseia-se na Pedagogia Histórico Crítica, e ela demonstrou, que os conhecimentos construídos, estudados e socializados por meio do Projeto Pedal Além da Visão, serviram de um contexto reflexivo para contribuir no processo constitutivo da cultura da inclusão. O Projeto Pedal Além da Visão após ser inserido na estrutura organizacional da Universidade, isso contribuiu para ampliar as ações formativas e potencializá-las, para que pudessem chegar a um maior número de pessoas. Ao decorrer do curso, diversos participantes não apenas estudaram os materiais disponibilizados, mas, muitos decidiram ter uma experiencia prática como atleta guia no Projeto Pedal Além da Visão, para conhecer e contribuir com esse processo formativo cultural. Criou-se com o curso, um espaço dinâmico educativo, porque os formadores, os participantes e os atletas que fizeram seus relatos de experiências, dialogaram sobre a materialidade que as suas práticas sociais estavam produzindo dentro do Projeto, comprovando ou tendo a possibilidade de repensar conhecimentos e estratégias metodológicas. Outro aspecto importante foi divulgar os conhecimentos que eles mesmos produziram.

Exploring the cultural forces behind green bond issuance
Authors: Luu Hanh Nguyen , Doan Anh Dung , Phan Nhat Minh , Doan Thi Thuy Quynh , Pham Thi Thanh Ngan
Published: November 2023

Green bonds, a rapidly emerging financial instrument designed to bolster environmentally sustainable initiatives, are subject to the influence of the national culture on economic decisions. This study examines varying levels of green bond issuance and cultural dimensions based on Hofstede’s theory. Fixed-effects regression was employed to analyze a sample of 67 countries from 2008 to 2021. The results suggest that cultural dimensions such as individualism and long-term orientation promote green bond issuance, while masculinity restrains it. Additionally, this study examines the moderating effects of institutional quality and economic conditions. The findings show that the relationship between national culture and green bonds is more significant in countries with high institutional quality and lower income levels. While this study offers valuable insights for policymakers, investors, and issuers seeking to promote sustainable finance in different cultural contexts, it could be enhanced by providing more information on the methodology and data sources used, as well as by exploring the potential mechanisms underlying the observed relationships between cultural values and green bond issuance.

Authors: Duong Van Hieu , Duong Thi Hoai Nhung , Nguyen Thi Ngoc Dung
Published: November 2023

Emotional intelligence has taken a firm hold in organizations. The emotional intelligence of managers is essential for building a motivated workforce. This study investigates the relationship between functional managers’ emotional intelligence and employees’ service recovery performance in the context of the hospitality industry. In this study, functional managers’ emotional intelligence includes four dimensions: self-emotion appraisal, other-emotion appraisal, use of emotion, and regulation of emotion. A mixed method was employed to explore the influence of functional managers’ emotional intelligence on employees’ service recovery performance. The data were collected from 238 functional managers at 33 four- and five-star hotels in five provinces and cities in Vietnam. Factor analysis, correlation analysis, and regression analysis were used to analyze the data. The results show that functional hotel managers’ emotional intelligence has a positive and significant impact on employees’ service recovery performance, with others’ emotion appraisal having the strongest impact, followed by emotion regulation, use of emotion, and self-emotion appraisal. These findings contribute to the literature and deepen the understanding of service recovery. This study also provides managers with useful advice on managing customer service as a competitive advantage.

The genus Carpobrotus N.E.Br. comprises between 12 and 25 species, most of which are native to South Africa. Some Carpobrotus species are considered among the most damaging invasive species in coastal dune systems worldwide. In their introduced areas, these species represent a serious threat to native species and significantly impact soil conditions and geochemical processes. Despite being well studied, the taxonomy of Carpobrotus remains problematic, as the genus comprises a complex of species that hybridize easily and are difficult to distinguish from each other. To explore the population genetic structure of invasive Carpobrotus species (i.e., C. acinaciformis and C. edulis) across a significant part of their native and non-native ranges, we sampled 40 populations across Argentina, Italy, New Zealand, Portugal, South Africa, Spain, and the USA. We developed taxon-specific microsatellite markers using a Next Generation Sequencing approach to analyze the population genetic structure and incidence of hybridization in native and non-native regions. We identified three genetically distinct clusters, which are present in both the native and non-native regions. Based on a set of selected morphological characteristics, we found no clear features to identify taxa morphologically. Our results suggest that the most probable sources of global introductions of Carpobrotus species are the Western Cape region of South Africa and the coastline of California. We suggest that management actions targeting Carpobrotus invasions globally should focus on preventing additional introductions from the east coast of South Africa, and on searching for prospective biocontrol agents in the Western Cape region of South Africa.
The Caucasus is neither a cradle nor a museum of diversity of the land snail genus Helix (Gastropoda, Stylommatophora, Helicidae), while Crimea is home to an ancient lineage
Authors: Korábek Ondřej , Balashov Igor , Neiber Marco T. , Walther Frank , Hausdorf Bernhard
Published: November 2023

The Caucasus and the adjacent Pontic Mountains in north-eastern Anatolia are home to numerous endemic land snail genera and species. The diversity of the region is the result of both intra-regional speciation and the persistence of relict lineages. The same seemed to be true for the genus Helix, which has been present in the Greater Caucasus since the Miocene. In the Caucasus region, there are three Helix species. Helix buchii (Pontic Mountains and Georgia) and Helix albescens (southern Ukraine to northern Lesser Caucasus) are both separated by deep splits from the major Helix clades in the mitochondrial phylogeny. In contrast, Helix lucorum belongs to the Anatolian radiation of Helix. At least part of its intraspecific diversification may have occurred in north-eastern Anatolia and the adjacent parts of the Caucasus. Here, we report new evidence suggesting that the Caucasus and the Pontus regions were less important as a refugium of ancient Helix lineages or as a diversification centre than previously hypothesised. Helix lucorum probably diversified more westwards, while H. buchii is a less ancient lineage than previously thought. Helix albescens had its long-term refugium on the Crimean Peninsula in southern Ukraine, not in the Caucasus. The Caucasus is close to the eastern limit of the distribution range of the genus and, although the fossil record shows that Helix was present there as early as the Miocene, the current diversity of the genus there is the result of much later colonisation.

Conduites addictives et difficultés de régulation émotionnelle à l’adolescence
Authors: Duriez Nathalie
Published: November 2023

L’adolescence est une période où les individus font face à de nombreux défis émotionnels, existentiels et physiologiques. Une régulation émotionnelle déficiente peut conduire à une incapacité à gérer efficacement le stress, l’anxiété, la frustration ou d’autres émotions négatives. Ces difficultés qui ont souvent commencé dans la petite enfance peuvent influencer de manière significative le processus de subjectivation à l’adolescence et augmenter le risque de conduites addictives. Dans cet article, nous présentons deux cas cliniques en thérapie familiale : Flavien, un jeune homme impulsif, et Eugénie, une jeune fille alexithymique. Après avoir exploré le contexte relationnel dans lequel s’est installé ce déficit de la régulation émotionnelle, le thérapeute invite tous les membres de la famille à s’accorder émotionnellement et à découvrir ensemble de nouvelles stratégies de régulation émotionnelle plus adaptées dans le but d’améliorer le fonctionnement émotionnel de l’adolescent et de réduire l’addiction.

Pour justifier l’application des règles de compétence particulières en matière d’assurances prévues à la section 3 du Chapitre II du règlement (UE) n° 1215/2012 du Parlement européen et du Conseil du 12 décembre 2012 concernant la compétence judiciaire, la reconnaissance et l’exécution des décisions en matière civile et commerciale, l’action dont la juridiction est saisie doit nécessairement soulever une question relative à des droits et à des obligations découlant d’un rapport d’assurance entre les parties à cette action. Une demande introduite par la personne lésée contre le preneur d’assurance ou l’assuré ne saurait constituer une demande en matière d’assurances, au sens desdites règles, du seul fait que cette demande et la demande formée directement contre l’assureur trouvent leur origine dans les mêmes faits ou qu’il existe, entre l’assureur et la personne lésée, une contestation portant sur la validité ou l’effet de la police d’assurance. En cas d’action directe intentée par la personne lésée contre un assureur, conformément à l’article 13, § 2, du règlement (UE) n° 1215/2012 du Parlement européen et du Conseil du 12 décembre 2012 concernant la compétence judiciaire, la reconnaissance et l’exécution des décisions en matière civile et commerciale, la juridiction de l’État membre dans lequel cette personne est domiciliée ne saurait se déclarer aussi compétente, sur le fondement de l’article 13, § 3, du même règlement, pour statuer sur une demande de réparation introduite concomitamment par ladite personne contre le preneur d’assurance ou l’assuré qui est domicilié dans un autre État membre et qui n’a pas été mis en cause par l’assureur.

Viole l’article 8, point 1, du règlement (UE) n° 1215/2012 du 12 décembre 2012 concernant la compétence judiciaire, la reconnaissance et l’exécution des décisions en matière civile et commerciale la cour d’appel qui déclare les juridictions françaises incompétentes pour connaître des actes de contrefaçon commis par une société britannique en dehors du territoire français faute d’identité de situation de droit et de fait dans les demandes formées à l’encontre de cette société et de deux sociétés françaises codéfenderesses, alors que le demandeur invoquait les atteintes portées par les sociétés françaises et par la société britannique, en France, en Allemagne et en Grande Bretagne, aux mêmes parties nationales de son brevet européen, concernant le même produit. Il résulte de l’article 14 du code civil que le demandeur français, dès lors qu’aucun critère ordinaire de compétence n’est réalisé en France, peut valablement saisir le tribunal français qu’il choisit en raison d’un lien de rattachement de l’instance au territoire français, ou, à défaut, selon les exigences d’une bonne administration de la justice. Viole cette disposition la cour d’appel qui, pour dire incompétent le juge français pour connaître des actes de contrefaçon commis en dehors du territoire français par une société domiciliée en Afrique du Sud, retient que le demandeur ne démontre pas la pertinence du rattachement avec la présente instance, dès lors que le juge français n’est pas compétent pour les faits prétendument commis à l’étranger par la société britannique dont la société sud-africaine était le fournisseur et que les juridictions anglaise et allemande sont compétentes pour juger des prétendus actes de contrefaçon de la partie nationale du brevet litigieux commis sur leurs territoires respectifs.

Published: November 2023

In this study, a novel method of evaluating the impact of straddle monorail noise on residential areas considering both objective and subjective effects was developed, in view of the singleness of the existing evaluation method of the track noise impact on residential areas. Using a questionnaire, the quantified straddle monorail noise data for five typical apartment complexes with rail-side layouts were combined with data on the subjective feelings of residents regarding this noise. Then, a model for evaluating the impact of the straddle monorail noise on residential areas under subjective and objective conditions was constructed. Finally, by considering the impacts of straddle monorail noise in residential areas, prevention and control measures were proposed that targeted the acoustic source, sound propagation process, and receiving location. The proposed evaluation method, which considered the needs of residents, could be used to improve straddle monorail noise impact evaluation systems and provide a scientific reference for improving acoustic environments in residential areas along straddle monorail lines.

Published: November 2023

A novel scheme based on the generalized differential operator and computer algebra was used to construct solitary solutions to a system of Riccati differential equations with diffusive coupling. The presented approach yields necessary and sufficient existence conditions of solitary solutions with respect to the system parameters. The proposed stepwise approach enabled the derivation of the explicit analytic solution, which could not be derived using direct balancing techniques due to the complexity of algebraic relationships. Computational experiments were used to demonstrate the efficacy of proposed scheme.
Reasoning arithmetic word problems entailing implicit relations based on the chain-of-thought model
Authors: Meng Hao , Yue Lin , Sun Geng , Shen Jun
Published: November 2023

Solving arithmetic word problems ($ AWPs $) that involve deep implicit relations can be quite challenging. However, the paper proposed two approaches to tackle this issue. The first approach used the modifier-to-matrix ($ MTM $) model to extract noun modification components from the problem text. Specifically, a missing entity recovery ($ MER $) model translated explicit expressions into a node dependency graph ($ NDG $). The nodes on the graph then recursively acquired connections from the knowledge base through the $ MER $ model until the goal was achieved with a known quantity. The solving engine then selected the appropriate knowledge as the prompt. The second approach proposed in the paper was a comprehensive one that combined explicit and implicit knowledge to enhance reasoning abilities. The experimental results of the dataset demonstrate that the proposed algorithm is superior to the baseline algorithms in solving $ AWPs $ that require deep implicit relations.

Severe hand injuries resulting from accidents can lead to the traumatic loss of an upper limb. The provision of an assistive device, such as an arm prosthesis, can help patients regain their courage and motivation to engage with the public. This project aimed to integrate 3D scanning and printing technology to develop a customized passive arm prosthesis for individuals who have experienced shoulder disarticulation due to a traumatic accident. The fabrication of the arm prosthesis was specifically designed and tailored to meet each patient’s unique needs and preferences. The prosthesis design was created based on 3D scan files obtained from the patients. Finite element analysis was employed to analyze the design and determine the optimal materials to use, as well as to optimize the overall design. The finalized model was then converted into STL file format and G-code for the 3D printing process. To ensure ease of use, the entire arm prosthesis and a harness system were assembled, and multiple tests and fittings were conducted on the patient. Several prototypes of the arm prosthesis were fabricated to achieve the best fit for each individual patient.

This study performs a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of biomedical (i.e., non-brain) technology such as eye-tracking (ET), electromyography (EMG), galvanic skin response (GSR), implicit association test (IAT), and electrocardiogram (ECG) tools in studying consumer’ behavior. To achieve this aim, we adopted the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) protocol and bibliometric analysis (VOSviewer software) for extracting the relevant documents from the Web of Science (WOS) database between 2013 and June 2023. A total of 58 documents (fifty-one articles and seven review articles) were included in the analysis. The results showed an increasing trend in publications over the years—the top countries in terms of publication outcome were Spain (13 papers) and the USA (10 papers). The analysis also identified the most influential authors, such as Babiloni, F. and Cherubino, P. It was further analyzed for the most cited article, which is titled “Neurophysiological Tools to Investigate Consumer’s Gender Differences during the Observation of TV Commercials”, and keywords related to neuromarketing and non-brain tools. Additionally, Frontiers in Psychology was determined as the most-productive journal. This bibliometric analysis reveals insights into the current state of non-brain tools research. It also provides insights into future research directions in the consumer neuroscience field. This study will provide general insights and details about current trends in consumer neuroscience research using biomedical technology.
