Authors:   Federal State Educational Budgetary Institution of Higher Education Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation, Moscow, Russia, Sotnikova L.V.
Published: February 2025

No modern commercial organization, including a medical one, can do without well-organized internal control of all its financial and business activities, and if it is subject to mandatory audit, then internal control over accounting and accounting (financial) statements. This is both a legal requirement and a necessity for entrepreneurial activity.
Inventory is an element of the accounting method and an element of the internal control method. In 2024, the Accounting Methodological Center, a non-governmental accounting regulator, issued several recommendations on the specifics of inventory management in various
situations. This fact in itself is not unusual, what is unusual is that these recommendations were issued almost immediately after the approval of
the Federal Accounting Standard 28/2023 “Inventory”. When conducting
research, we used such methods as analysis and synthesis, comparison,
grouping method, analogy method, logical approach, system approach.
As a result of the conducted research, this article, in particular, presents reasonable approaches to reflecting the specifics of inventory management in the accounting policy and the regulation on internal control of the reporting organization. The results of this study will be of interest to a wide range of readers studying various problems of modern Russian and foreign accounting, and can also be used in the educational process of higher education institutions.

Authors: Shunmugaraja J
Published: February 2025

Fiji is a small island country, situated in the Southern Pacific Ocean.The Fijian group of islands number 250, of which about 80 are inhabited. The first missionaries to arrive in Fiji were from Tonga. On landing in October 1835, they began their work at a time when the political state of Fiji was in formative stage. The annexation of Fiji had been urged by both Australia and England since 1869.In 1873 the Earl of Kimberly commissioned Commodore Goodenough, the squadron of the Australian station and E.L. Layard, then Britian’s Consul in Fiji, to investigate and report on the matter. On10 October 1874, the mission was completely successful and the sovereignty of the islands was ceded to the British Crown by the Cakobau, the Chief of Bau, Maafu, the Head of the confederacy and the other principal chiefs, in a deed of cession signed. A charter was shortly afterwards issued by Queen Victoria creating the islands as a Crown Colony and for providing a Government of the Empire there. The emigration of Indians into Fiji commenced in 1879. The campaign against slavery and its eventual abolition in Europe coincided with the ruin of Indian peasantry and the overwhelmingly redundant wage labour available in India by the first quarter of 19th century prompted the European planters to consider India, a favourable recruiting ground for their required plantation labour.The British colonizers had established sugarcane plantations in the island. For the non-availability of the local labourers for doing the manual labour in the plantations they approached the British Indian government for availing cheap labour force. The Colonial Government of India accepted their demand and through the Act XXI of 1883 included the Fiji legally into other countries for the Indian labourers emigration. The objective of this paper is to study the emigration of labour from (India) Madras Presidency to Fiji in the 19th and 20th century. There are three sections in this narrative account. The first and second sections of the paper deals with the issues regarding the Acts which were used for governing the emigration of Indian Indentured Labours from India to Fiji Islands, experiments of introduction of new Indian Indentured Labourers and the establishment of new larger Sugarcane Plantations and Factories with huge capitals on the Fiji Islands. The final section narrates theplightfulstories of recruitment of Tamil Indentured Labours from Madras Presidency to Fiji Islands and their painful working conditions in the plantations.

Authors: Rais Burhanudin , Awwalia Luthfi
Published: February 2025

English has become an essential language for many purposes, including educational needs. However, English learning still has various obstacles, such as the lack of adequate environment and facilities for learning English, including Sintang, a border area. The environment and facilities greatly influence students' English learning. It raises the question of how good the English skills are there. However, the researchers' concern in this study is students at the university level. Universities were chosen as relevant subjects because they are at the highest level of English learning in formal schools. To achieve this goal, researchers use qualitative methods and conduct English language proficiency tests guided by CEFR on students in Sintang.

Influence of penetration angles on global-thermo-hydraulic-performance of shell and tube heat exchangers with multi-cross sectional tube configurations
Authors: Alabi I. O. , Ademola A. D , Petinrin M. O.
Published: February 2025

Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchanger (STHE), a vital component for efficient energy management when used with Straight-Tube Geometries (STG) is associated with low Global-Thermo-Hydraulic-Performance (GTHP). These contribute to the high energy demand of processing plants. The recently developed STHEs with modified tube configurations have not adequately addressed these limitations and necessitated a continuous search for tubes with improved performance. Multi-cross sectional tube geometrical (MSTG) configurations are known to improve GTHP along flow lines. This process has not been thoroughly investigated. Therefore, this study was designed to investigate the influence of penetration angles (PAs) on the STHEs’ performances using MSTG configurations. ; The numerical analysis was evaluated in terms of GTHP indices on STHE with Convergent-Divergent-Tube-Geometry (CDTG) and Divergent-Convergent-Tube-Geometry (DCTG) configurations of varying penetration angles (PAs), 5,10,15,…,90°. Numerical GTHP for STHE with STG was 1.0, while that obtained for STHE with CDTG configurations for all PAs fall between 1.50 to 1.625 with the highest at PA indicating a 50% minimum improvement in GTHP over STHE-STG. For DCTG, GTHP were between 1.43 and 1.585 for all PAs with the highest at PA indicating a 43% minimum improvement in GTHP over STHE-STG. Replacing STHE-STG with STHE-MSTG can improved their GTHPs in processing plant.

Published: February 2025

The increasing need for renewable energy sources that are both sustainable and less costly has spurred growing research into natural dyes as eco-friendly sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). This study entails the extraction and characterization of natural pigments derived from Chlamydomonas starii and Coelastrella sp. focusing on solvent selection and thermal treatment. Ethanol proved much better than ethyl acetate and had the most remarkable effects on retaining functional groups, especially hydroxyl (O-H) and carbonyl (C=O), which would be important in terms of dye adsorption for improved photon absorption and electron injection. Spectroscopic analyses indicated that the ethanol-extracted dyes, especially non-heated and moderately heated ones, would enable a broad absorption of light within the visible spectrum. These findings hence have demonstrated that natural dyes extracted with ethanol were better than those extracted with ethyl acetate, which makes ethanol more efficient, scalable, and greener solvent for extraction of natural dyes compared to ethyl acetate. Future research is to focus on mixed solvent systems and stabilization techniques to improve dye performance even further. This will therefore be the greatest scion towards high-efficiency DSSCs while further supporting the global transition efforts toward sustainable energy technologies.

Background: Lateral sphincterotomy is now the standard surgical treatment for chronic anal fissure. Aims and Objectives: To determine the outcome of closed lateral sphincterotomy in the treatment of chronic anal fissures. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective cross-sectional study was conducted in the Department of Surgery, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period from September 2009 to June 2010 with a view to determine the outcome of lateral sphincterotomy in the treatment of chronic anal fissures. For this purpose, 50 patients of chronic anal fissures were enrolled in this study after inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: The age of the respondents was ranging from 23 to 60 years with the mean age of 39.140 ± 8.767 years. Fifty-two percent patients were male and 48.0% were female with the male to female ratio of 1.08:1. The duration of symptoms of the respondents was ranging from 1 to 13 years with the mean 5.920 ± 3.875 years. The mean pain score was decreased from 5.32 at baseline to 0.04 at 6 weeks (p<0.001), and 96.0% of patients were pain free at 6 weeks of follow up. Complete healing was occurred in 76.0% at 2nd week, 86.0% at 4th week and 90.0% at 6th week lateral sphincterotomy. Early postoperative complication such as superficial wound infection was in 6.0% and minor incontinence in 8.0% patients. Of the minor incontinence, 6.0% had incontinence of flatus and 2.0% had incontinence of liquid but at 6th week only incontinence of flatus was present in 4.0% of patients. At the end of 6 weeks follow up period, satisfactory outcome was found in 45 (90.0%) and unsatisfactory outcome was found in 10.0% of patients. Conclusion: Lateral sphincterotomy is a standard surgical treatment for chronic anal fissure with high success rate and patients’ satisfaction with low postoperative complication.

Abstrackcolorectual cancer is a type of cancer that exists in the colon and rectum. In Indonesia, the number of patients who suffer the disease under the age of 40 years old, rose up until 35.26% and placed in the rank of 10th. In the highly advanced country. the disease climbs sharply as the patient with age more than 50 years old, only 3% less compared to the patient less than 40 years old. Colorectal cancer has become the 2nd most frequent disease that causing death at the end. Diet has also become one of the significant factor that may cause the cancer. The diet mechanism goes to be one of the etiology of colorectal cancer, which actually still undiscovered. For individuals who had high opprtunity for colorectal cancer to be exist, there are significant alteration in the fecesâ€™ microflora. Diet gives huge role with the changes in the microfloraâ€™s activity, which reflected in the changes of enzymeâ€™s activities.Key words : colorectal cancer, microflora, enzymeâ€™s activities

O presente estudo discute a gestão participativa na saúde coletiva, analisando seus caminhos para a efetivação de políticas públicas locais. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida por meio de uma revisão da literatura, utilizando os indexadores Google Scholar, Scopus e Web of Science para selecionar artigos relevantes. Foram considerados estudos publicados nos últimos 5 anos, em português, inglês e espanhol. Os resultados apontam que a participação social, a educação permanente e o uso de tecnologias digitais são estratégias fundamentais para o fortalecimento das políticas públicas no Sistema Único de Saúde (SUS). No entanto, desafios como a intensificação do trabalho no serviço público, a precarização das condições laborais e a privatização de funções sociais dificultam a consolidação de uma gestão efetiva. Questões relacionadas à saúde mental e à saúde ambiental também demandam políticas mais robustas. Conclui-se que a gestão participativa deve ser sustentada pela articulação entre diferentes setores, valorizando a inclusão e a inovação, para garantir um sistema de saúde mais justo, integral e sustentável.

O presente estudo tem como objetivo analisar a epidemiologia das internações por dengue no Brasil no período de 2014 a 2024. Trata-se de uma pesquisa descritiva, transversal e epidemiológica. Os dados acerca das internações por dengue foram obtidos através do  Sistema  de  Informações  Hospitalares  do  Departamento  de  Informática  do  Sistema Único de Saúde (SIH/DATASUS), considerando o período de 2014 a 2024. Assim, as variáveis analisadas incluíram região, sexo, faixa etária, raça, número de internações/óbitos por ano. A Região Sudeste apresentou os maiores índices de hospitalização e mortalidade, seguida pelo Centro-Oeste. Observou-se que mulheres foram mais internadas que homens e a faixa etária mais acometida foi de 20 a 29 anos. Houve um aumento expressivo de casos em 2023 e 2024, destacando a necessidade de reforço nas medidas de controle e prevenção da doença.

As doenças cardiovasculares, como infarto do miocárdio e acidente vascular cerebral (AVC), estão entre as principais causas de morbimortalidade mundial. Este estudo realizou uma revisão integrativa da literatura sobre o impacto da exposição crônica a poluentes atmosféricos, como material particulado fino (PM2.5), óxidos de nitrogênio (NOx) e dióxido de enxofre (SO2), no risco dessas enfermidades. Os resultados indicaram que os poluentes desencadeiam processos fisiopatológicos, incluindo inflamação sistêmica, estresse oxidativo e disfunção endotelial, os quais estão diretamente associados ao desenvolvimento de doenças cardiovasculares. Além disso, a interação com fatores genéticos e ambientais, como ruído urbano e variações climáticas extremas, amplifica os efeitos adversos. Constatou-se, ainda, que a presença de áreas verdes em centros urbanos pode mitigar esses riscos, reforçando a importância de políticas públicas para a redução da poluição e promoção da saúde cardiovascular. Sugere-se o desenvolvimento de estratégias preventivas e a ampliação de estudos que explorem as interações ambientais e genéticas.

A espondilite anquilosante (EA) é uma doença inflamatória crônica do esqueleto axial que pode levar a deformidades estruturais e incapacidade funcional. O diagnóstico precoce continua sendo um desafio, uma vez que os métodos tradicionais, como exames de imagem e biomarcadores inflamatórios inespecíficos, apresentam limitações na detecção da doença em estágios iniciais. Este estudo teve como objetivo revisar os avanços recentes na identificação e aplicação de biomarcadores para o diagnóstico e prognóstico da espondilite anquilosante. Foram analisadas evidências sobre marcadores inflamatórios, genéticos e moleculares, incluindo proteína C-reativa (PCR), metaloproteinases da matriz (MMPs), TNF-α e IL-17, além de novas abordagens como microRNAs (miRNAs) e escores de risco poligênico (PRS). Os achados indicam que a integração de biomarcadores séricos, genéticos e técnicas de inteligência artificial pode melhorar significativamente a acurácia diagnóstica e a predição da progressão da doença. No entanto, a validação clínica e a padronização dos biomarcadores ainda representam desafios importantes. O avanço dessas ferramentas poderá contribuir para um diagnóstico mais precoce e uma abordagem terapêutica mais personalizada para pacientes com espondilite anquilosante.

A esquizofrenia é um transtorno psiquiátrico crônico e multifatorial, cuja fisiopatologia tem sido cada vez mais associada à neuroinflamação. Evidências crescentes indicam que a ativação da microglia e o aumento da expressão de citocinas pró-inflamatórias, como IL-6, TNF-α e IL-1β, desempenham um papel central na desregulação sináptica e na neurodegeneração observadas na doença. Além disso, biomarcadores inflamatórios têm sido investigados como potenciais alvos terapêuticos. Este estudo revisou artigos publicados entre 2015 e 2025 que exploram a relação entre neuroinflamação e esquizofrenia, com ênfase em novas abordagens terapêuticas imunomoduladoras. Os achados indicam que a modulação do sistema imune, por meio do uso de fármacos anti-inflamatórios, imunomoduladores e até mesmo da suplementação de vitamina D, pode contribuir para a redução da inflamação neuronal e a melhora dos sintomas psiquiátricos. Entretanto, desafios como a variabilidade individual na resposta inflamatória e a necessidade de padronização na identificação de biomarcadores ainda precisam ser superados antes que essas estratégias possam ser amplamente implementadas na prática clínica.
