Authors: Maadanbekovа M.J. , Nogoibaeva R.K. , Baigubatova N.M.
Published: May 2022

Attracting foreign capital is not easy, even for enterprises operating in countries with a more favorable investment climate and less risk. The main obstacles to the inflow of foreign capital into the Kyrgyz Republic are: undeveloped legislation, excessive taxes, lack of a mechanism for protecting foreign investment, criminality of the situation, and the spread of corruption. Many foreign entrepreneurs cite the latter as the main reasons, and also highlight the instability. Stability, including political, legal, economic and social, is a fundamental factor for attracting investment. Unfortunately, today the Kyrgyz Republic has a reputation as a politically and socially unstable state, where there is often a change of power, state policy, laws, there is no continuity and consistency in government decisions.
Effects of substrate temperature and sputtering gas composition on physical properties and photocatalytic activities of WOx thin films deposited via radiofrequency sputtering
Authors: Miyagi Tomoaki , Takahashi Yoshiro , Akimoto Yasuki
Published: May 2022

Tungsten oxide (WOx) is expected to act as a photocatalytic material under visible light. We have deposited WOx thin films using radiofrequency sputtering and evaluated the photocatalytic activities of the films via degradation of methylene blue solution. The optical absorbance, crystallization, and surface morphology of the WOx thin films were also investigated. The absorption edge of the WOx thin films was shifted to the long-wavelength region when the substrate temperature was high and the O2 gas flow rate was low. Crystallization proceeded when the substrate temperature was high and additional WOx diffraction peaks were appearing with low O2 gas flow during growth. Furthermore, the grain size of the WOx thin films was smaller when the O2 gas flow was high. The photocatalytic activity was higher when the substrate temperature and O2 gas flow rate were low.

Published: May 2022

The orientation angles of liquid crystal (LC) molecules were measured during ultrasound vibrations. Light transmitted through a fabricated LC lens was analyzed via the crossed Nicol condition and a crystal rotation method. The LC orientation angle was estimated with a theoretical model, and its distribution in the lens was determined. There was a strong correlation between the molecular angles and ultrasonic vibrational distributions, indicating that the angle was changed by the acoustic radiation force. The maximum tilt angle was 12° for a 50 V peak-to-peak input.

Published: May 2022

Three-dimensional (3D) CMOS technology encourages the use of UV laser annealing (UV-LA) because the shallow absorption of UV light into materials and the process timescale typically from nanoseconds (ns) to microseconds (μs) strongly limit the vertical heat diffusion. In this work,μs UV-LA solid phase epitaxial regrowth demonstrated an active carrier concentration surpassing 1 × 1021at cm−3in an arsenic ion-implanted silicon-on-insulator substrate. After the subsequent ns UV-LA known for improving CMOS interconnect, only a slight (∼5%) sheet resistance increase was observed. The results open a possibility to integrate UV-LA at different stages of 3D-stacked CMOS.

The Chinese Dream: Is it a New Universal Value or a Plot of Alternative Modernities?
Authors:   The Society For Chinese Humanities In Korea, LEE HEEKYUNG
Published: May 2022

For the past few decades, people around the world have sought alternative modernities to discuss the identity and current issues of various regions, going beyond the scope of modernity representing the interests of the West. Creating a new model of modernity, the establishment of socialism and political, economic, and cultural experiments in China have attracted a lot of global attention. Implemented in earnest by the Chinese Communist Party in 2012, the Chinese Dream presents the unique universal values of China. The goal of becoming the world's strongest economic and military power by the middle of the 21st century contains national ambition to reform the existing international order by spreading its universal value in its traditional culture throughout the world. Inheriting the traditional perception of realizing a country governed by moral values and the national function of 天下一統 (the world is united as one), today’s China has been putting high pressure on neighboring countries in terms of both hard and soft power to achieve its national dream. Severe economic retaliation against countries with conflicting interests, the falsification of history on regions with territorial disputes, and claiming ownership of other cultures are some examples. Exploring alternative modernities, the Chinese Dream breaks the Western-centered temporal frame and offers a hope that the ability to present universal values can be found in various time zones and cultures. On the other hand, it still has to solve the question, Are only powerful countries able to present the value of alternative modernities? and the crisis that alternative modernities can be taken advantage of for the replay of the strong-takes-all centering around emerging countries in the international community. Alternative modernities must not only stop at merely criticizing Western modernity. In order for the Chinese Dream to go beyond China and establish itself as a true alternative modernity, it should embrace various conflicts and acknowledge that the newly proposed universal value is still being developed rather than already completed. This is because values that are biased towards a specific system cannot be established as a true universal value that respects the values and cultures of different regions and pursues fair interactions.
A BIZARRE CASE OF GIANT JEJUNAL GIST PRESENTING AS A MALE ABDOMINOPELVIC MASS - CASE REPORT
Authors: Santhi B. , Balasubramaniam A. , Devapriyam. M. John Gideon
Published: May 2022

Gastrointestinal stromal tumours(GISTs) are uncommon neoplasms, with 31.8% occurring in small
bowel, and jejunal GIST being the rarest subtype among all types of GISTs, accounting for 0.1%–3% of all
GIT tumours. GIST presenting as a palpable abdominopelvic mass, as is being described in this case report, is exceedingly rare
and only 25 such cases have been previously reported in the world literature, with a higher female preponderance. Since this
patient had a Giant GIST which was locally-advanced, it can be effectively treated with Imatinib for 3-6 months followed by
surgery and adjuvant therapy, thereby improving disease-free survival.
AMH CORRELATION WITH ENDOGENOUS HORMONES IN FEMALES: INDIAN PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Quresh Zehratul , Almeida Flavia , Jatale Raj
Published: May 2022

Introduction: AMH is an indicator of functional ovarian reserve, it is used in combination with other
biochemical and radiological markers in assessing fertility status in women, selecting candidates for IVF
stimulation, predicting menopause, diagnosis and management of PCOS. AMH alone may be considered for a good ovarian
reserve, either low or high will give an indication of primary ovarian failure or anovulatory cycles as seen in polycystic ovarian
syndrome respectively. With this basic investigation all the other hormones are added on to rule out the spectrum of differential
diagnosis and plan IVF treatments.
Materials and methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted in 38811 female patients 18 to 45 years of age,
divided into 2 groups; abnormal AMH (Group I), and normal AMH values (Group II) as per biological reference ranges for age.
Group I was further sub divided into Low AMH Group Ia, and High AMH group Ib, (lower and higher than the cut off for age)
respectively. FSH, LH, LH/FSH ratio, E2, Progesterone, DHEAS, Free testosterone, FT3, FT4, TSH, and fasting insulin were
studied in these groups.
Results: Statistical analyses were performed using “R Studio version 1.4.1103”. A two-tailed p value of <0.05 was considered
statistically signicant. Kruskal Wallis test was used for comparison of continues variables (Hormones) between the groups. A
chi-square categorical test shows statistical signicance of difference in values of FSH, LH, LH/FSH ratio, Free and total
testosterone, progesterone, fasting insulin, DHEAS and Free T3. No statistical signicance was seen with Prolactin, TSH, Free
T4, and E2.
Conclusion:Variation of normal and abnormal AMH levels with endogenous hormones plays a vital role in better interpretation
of AMH. FSH, LH, free testosterone, fasting insulin, Free T3, signicantly correlate in patients with Normal AMH levels.

Published: May 2022

Zygomaticomaxillary fractures are complex fractures that can involve the oor of the orbit. These
fractures often lead to complications like diplopia, disability in rotation of the eye superiorly due to
herniation of muscle and orbital fat into the maxillary sinus. These fractures if left untreated can result in malunion, visual
disturbances and are not aesthetically pleasing due to effect on the symmetry of face. Various treatment modalities are
available for the treatment of zygomaticomaxillary fracture and reconstruction of the oor of the orbit. Complications include
retrobulbar hemorrhage, orbital ssure syndrome, and reduction in orbital volume, with minor effects like ectropion or entropion.
A case report of a 21-year-old male patient with a Orbit zygomaticomaxillary complex fracture is described.

Published: May 2022

To screen for micro- and macrovascular complications in patients with newly diagnosed diabetes
mellitus and mycobacterium tuberculosis infection. Total 182 patients infected with TB were enrolled in
the study. Patients of TB were selected from Medicine and Pulmonary Medicine departments in MLN Medical College
Prayagraj. They were evaluated for glucose intolerance at the time of enrollment. Patients who did not have previous diagnosis
of diabetes had samples drawn for A1C and on a subsequent day have an OGTT on a fasting state. In all patients diagnosed
with glucose intolerance and tuberculosis infection, ECG, 2 D Echo, CIMT (carotid intima media thickness), fundus
examination was done and ABPI (ankle brachial pressure index) was calculated. 18 patients who had known history diabetes
and were on diabetic medications were excluded. Out of 164, total 88 (53.66%) patients had normal glucose tolerance (NGT)
and 76 (46.34%) had abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT). AGT group included patients with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT)
and newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus. In the AGT group 50 (30.49%) patients were diagnosed as prediabetes and 26 (15.85%)
were as newly diagnosed diabetes mellitus. Seven (9.21%) newly diagnosed diabetic patients had ABPI below 0.89 and fundus
abnormalities (9.21%, p=0.012). Urine microalbuminuria >300md/dl was present in seven patients (9.21%, p<0.001), ECG
abnormalities with ST-T changes and 2D-Echo ndings of diastolic dysfunction were found in 4 (5.26%, p=0.095), and 5 (6.58%

Face-to-face vs distance learning in human anatomy education: a longitudinal study of students’ perspective and learning outcomes during COVID-19 pandemic
Authors: Relucenti Michela , Alby Francesca , Heyn Rosemarie , Marino Filomena , Fatigante Marilena , Miglietta Selenia , Familiari Pietro , Zucchermaglio Cristina , Familiari Giuseppe , Gaudio Eugenio
Published: May 2022

On March 9, 2020 attendance classes in Italian universities were suspended due to Covid-19 Pandemic. Thanks to the fast actions put in place by Sapienza University Governance and to the efforts made by all components of the university, the face-to-face courses were turned into on-line courses in only one week. This sudden change has been an even more exciting challenge for the Faculties of Medicine, whose members were also involved in the frontline battle against the virus. Anatomy academics, recognizing the challenges as opportunities to innovate anatomy teaching, set up at the same time: a specific survey to investigate students’ perspective on educational preferences and their mood; a longitudinal quantitative study to compare, for the first time in the same student’s population, exam grades after face-to-face classes and after online classes. The students, although with different motivations, considered valid both modes of attendance. Exam grades statistical analysis showed that anatomy exam marks after the online course had a higher average value (statistically significant) and with an excellent correlation factor, compared to the marks obtained at the end of the face-to-face course. Considering our data as a whole, we can suggest that face-to-face classes and online classes, rather than being interchangeable education modes, should be considered as modes with different characteristics that offer different educational benefits. These advantages may have different relevance for individual students, depending on their specific needs and individual preferences. This suggests the opportunity to propose customizable courses, centered on the student’s needs.
The location of the mental foramen in relation to the biometrics of the lower dentition and mandibular arch: A cross-sectional study
Authors: Key Yi Wen , Ng Zi-Bin , Al-Namnam Nisreen Mohammed , Nambiar Phrabhakaran , Ngeow Wei Cheong , Chai Wen Lin , Lim Zhi Yin Joan
Published: May 2022

Purpose: To evaluate the position of the mental foramen among Malaysian Malays and Chinese based on the biometrics of the lower dentition and mandibular arch dimensions. 

Materials and methods: The horizontal and vertical position of mental foramen in relation to the midline, roots of teeth, mesiodistal dimension of the anterior and posterior teeth, and the mandibular arch length and width were measured and evaluated in 65 Cone-Beam Computed Tomography scans. 

Results: The location of mental foramen was predominantly located either between 1st and 2nd premolar or below 2nd premolar. There were no significant differences for all measurements of the mandible in relation to gender and ethnicities. There was a positive correlation of the mesiodistal diameter of the teeth with the mandibular arch length and width. However, mandibular arch length and width did not affect the location of the mental foramen. 

Conclusions: As the size of the teeth increases, the mandibular arch length and the width increase concurrently. However, regardless of the changes in the biometrics of the mandibular dentition and the arch dimensions, the anatomical position of the mental foramen remains the same. The mental foramen was located at the ratio of 0.5 vertically and 0.27 horizontally in the mandible. The inter-foramina distance of 51.36 mm suggests that Malaysian Mongoloids had sufficient space to receive five implants rigidly joined with a bar.

COMENTÁRIOS SOBRE A ORDEM SUJEITO-VERBO EM ANÚNCIOS DE JORNAIS DO BRASIL OITOCENTISTA
Authors: Araujo Leandro Silveira de
Published: May 2022

Este trabalho faz uma breve apreciação sobre alguns aspectos da colocação do sujeito na oração da língua portuguesa, empregada no Brasil do século XIX. A análise se desenvolveu a partir de uma seleção de anúncios jornalísticos oitocentistas, compilados na obra “Os Preços Eram Commodos... Anúncios de Jornais Brasileiros Século XIX” (GUEDES, BERLINK, 2000). Os dados observados foram contrapostos a estudos sobre ordem no português (DIAS, 1959; MATTOSO CÂMARA JR., 1975; PONTES, 1987). Sob uma perspectiva especialmente quantitativa, foi possível observar que em anúncios oitocentistas a ordem mais favorecida foi a não-marcada, isto é, com sujeito anteposto ao verbo (60%). Contudo, ainda assim identificamos um alto percentual (40%) de ocorrências da colocação marcada, em que o sujeito é posposto ao verbo. A elevada recorrência desse último dado se dá, em parte, devido ao gênero discursivo, que favorece, por exemplo, o uso de passivas sintéticas. Por fim, observamos que o modelo de posicionamento do sujeito já estava definido no século XIX.

Market Power in Power Markets: The Filed-Rate Doctrine and Competition in Electricity
Authors: Vaheesan Sandeep
Published: May 2022

State and federal initiatives have opened the American electric power industry to competition over the past four decades. Although the process has not occurred uniformly across the country, wholesale electricity markets exist everywhere today. Independent power producers can construct generation facilities and sell their output to utilities and industrial customers through bilateral contracts. In many regions, centralized power markets now facilitate the sale of billions of dollars in electricity annually through auctions. Although market forces have replaced direct price regulation in electricity, antitrust enforcement has not expanded its role commensurately. A lack of competition has been a serious problem in many power markets and led to billions of dollars in wealth transfers from ratepayers to generators. The federal courts, however, have invoked the filed-rate doctrine to prohibit private antitrust suits against generators and other market participants accused of collusive behavior. They have held that federal and state regulation is adequate to maintain competitive markets and questioned their own ability to deter anticompetitive behavior, effectively immunizing power generators from antitrust damages liability. Congress or the Supreme Court should limit the application of the filed-rate doctrine in electricity markets and allow for the antitrust laws to be enforced against collusive conduct. Eliminating the filed-rate immunity, however, is not sufficient to create competitive power markets. Private treble-damages suits could help deter express collusion between competing generators. Yet the antitrust laws are comparatively powerless to remedy two important types of anticompetitive behavior seen in power markets. Antitrust jurisprudence in the United States does not proscribe the exercise of unilateral market power and creates high hurdles to finding liability for tacit collusion. Given the limitations of traditional private antitrust remedies, federal and state regulators must focus on creating competitive market structures. They can take three concrete steps toward this end: police generator consolidation more carefully, encourage expansion of the transmission grid, and expose more ratepayers to wholesale price signals. Applying these broader competition policy measures is necessary to redeem a restructuring project that has resulted in several episodes of serious market-power abuse and yielded uncertain benefits.
Power to the People: Why We Need Full Federal Preemption of Electrical Transmission Regulation
Authors: Hensley Max
Published: May 2022

State and federal governments have made significant investments in the development and installation of renewable energy technology. However, further increases in renewable power use have been stymied by the continued mismatch between the national interest in connecting consumers with utility-scale wind and solar installations and state and local control over the siting of electrical transmission lines. Because renewable power potential is often located far from consumers, transmission lines must cross multiple jurisdictions whose local interests have tended to prevent or significantly delay development. This Note analyzes that disconnect, reviews academic and legislative proposals to overcome it, and proposes a way for the federal government to preempt the states in order to streamline construction of the needed infrastructure while maintaining consideration of local concerns and advancing the overarching policy goal of shifting the electrical grid towards renewable power.

Published: May 2022

O processo de ensino e aprendizagem não é apenas uma mera transmissão de conhecimentos do professor para o aluno, mas uma forma de despertar no aluno o raciocínio logico que lhe permite construir o conhecimento, para o efeito, o professor deve se valer de metodologias ativas que incentivem o aluno a aprender a aprender. Uma das metodologias ativas que tem ganhado destaque são os jogos didáticos.  Por exemplo, o ensino da escrita e acerto equações químicas necessita de aplicação de métodos mais ativos em que o aluno toma a iniciativa da sua aprendizagem. O presente estudo tem como objetivo compreender as implicações do jogo de baralho de símbolos e fórmulas químicas na aprendizagem das equações químicas. O estudo foi realizado na Escola Secundária da Amizade, localizada na cidade de Lichinga, província de Niassa, em Moçambique. Para o desenvolvimento deste estudo, foi adoptada uma abordagem de natureza qualitativa. Foram usadas a entrevista, o questionário, a observação direta e a análise documental como técnicas de recolha de dados. A primeira técnica foi aplicada a 30 alunos da 8ª classe previamente submetidos ao jogo; a segunda foi aplicada a dois professores da mesma classe que assistiram a atividade lúdica. O tratamento de dados foi feito através das técnicas da análise de conteúdo e triangulação de dados. Os resultados obtidos revelam que o aumento da motivação, o crescimento da dinâmica na atividade, o trabalho colaborativo, a socialização, afeto e a criatividade constituem as implicações e atitudes diretas verificadas no jogo proposto. Portanto, para além destes aspetos o jogo de baralho de símbolos e fórmulas contribuiu para aprimorar a relação nome/fórmula ou nome/símbolo e desenvolver o vocabulário (linguagem) ligada a equação química.

The article is devoted to the study of the main approaches to the development of the educational potential of territories based on the network interaction of professional educational organizations and employers. In modern conditions, the competitiveness and attractiveness of the territory is determined by its economic potential, the most important component of which is the educational potential, especially in the context of the development of an innovative economy. Only the educational potential formed on the basis of key regional competencies can become the basis for meeting the needs of the regional economy in qualified professional personnel, attracting investments and forming a regional innovation system. Such development can be ensured on the basis of mechanisms of network interaction between professional educational institutions and employers, with the active regulatory participation of public administration bodies. The purpose of the work is to form a model of network management of the educational potential of the territory on the example of the system of secondary vocational education, which is the most regionally oriented in terms of the formed competencies of graduates and providing the economy of the region with highly qualified workers and mid-level specialists. The analysis of existing approaches to solving this problem has been carried out, which showed the absence of a unified methodology for organizing the network development of educational potential. The tasks of management in this direction are defined and a scheme for managing the process of network development within the system of secondary vocational education is proposed, which generally includes the key principles of creating an organizational and functional model of network development of the educational potential of the territory and can be adapted to any region. During the research, methods of a systematic approach, methods of analysis and synthesis, and the theory of human capital were used. It is concluded that the implementation of the proposed model of the network development of the educational potential of the territory will ensure the integration of the vocational education system of the region into the structure of regional innovation subsystems, and, therefore, the achievement of the goals of sustainable socio-economic development of the region and the country as a whole.

Automation and digitalization of not only business processes, but also all spheres of human life is an important catalyst for development, optimization of working and living conditions. But these processes are closely correlated with a number of problems, in particular related to human resources. To be in demand in the labor market, employees must have key skills and be competitive compared to other candidates. Not all people are able to react promptly to the changes taking place, to change professions that have been given 20–30 years of life, to be able to adapt to rapidly changing conditions and market requirements. The industrial revolution represents not only the prospects for further development, optimization and efficient use of the company’s resources, including human resources, and in the context of automation, this leads to a reduction in the number of personnel, which causes concern for people of many professions.

Fertility in cattle is an important trait for the profitability of dairy farms. Some factors affecting fertilization in small and medium-sized dairy farms in Adıyaman and Şanlıurfa provinces located in the Southeastern Anatolia region of Turkey were discussed in this study. The reproductive yield, which is the dependent variable, and the breed of cattle that affect the fertility, and disease were included in the model as categorical variables, while the duration of experience for artificial insemination specialists in the profession and artificial insemination practice were included in the model as continuous variables. The distribution of fertility data was Poisson, however the comparison of mean and variance (μ<σ2) indicated an overdispersion in the data (p<0.05). Therefore, the parameters of the criteria affecting the fertility were estimated using NBR model. The fertility rate was low (55%) in study area and the breed (16%) was an important impact on the fertility. The results revealed that the effects of Holstein and Simmental cattle breeds on fertility was higher compared to the local breeds (46.8% and 50.6%, respectively). The fertility decreased 13.6% in cattle with disease symptoms. The race, disease, working time of the specialist and professional experience in the practice had significant effects on fertility in artificial insemination. In addition, the results revealed that the NBR model can be evaluated effectively and easily with the Stata statistical program in case of overdispersion of categorical data such as conception level.

Regional Population Family Planning Board is an institution / agency that functions to control the population by providing information on contraceptives to the community to form family planning. Family Planning is a government program designed to balance the needs of life and population. The family planning program is carried out by the government so that the family as the smallest unit of national life accepts the Norms of a Happy and Prosperous Small Family which is oriented towards balanced growth. To support this goal, it is necessary to collect data on fertile age couples. The fertile age couples data collection activity that was previously carried out manually is an administrative process as well as routine activities carried out. Based on the reality on the ground, the fertile age couples data collection which is carried out manually is deemed ineffective and inefficient. Therefore, it is necessary to implement a Family Planning Management Information System, among others, for online fertile age couples data collection with the aim of creating transparency in fertile age couples data and facilitating data collection on participants of fertile, targeted, and quality family planning couples. The place of research is the Regional Population Family Planning Board Curugkembar Sukabumi District.Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â  From the results of the application of the Family Planning Management Information System, it can be concluded that: The application of a Web-based Family Planning Management Information System at the Regional Family Planning Population Board, facilitates and speeds up data processing. The system also allows setting the service schedule and control. In designing a web-based Management Information System program, it minimizes the possibility of errors in the data entry process for fertile age couples on family planning. With the implementation of this Management Information System, delays in making reports will be minimized every month.

Bank Mandiri (Persero) Tbk using secondary data of quarterly financial report period of 2007 until 2016. The research data was processed using SPSS 21 with classical assumption test, descriptive statistic and hypothesis test. The results of this research suggest to maintain the bank's function properly and carefully in distributing credit to reduce the high value of NPLs (non-performing loans). Capital reserves need to be considered because the condition of a bank too solvable will make it difficult for the bank itself to gain profit, by reducing the CAR value along to increasing the amount of fund disbursement. Utilize maximally liquidity owned banks to increase LDR by optimum credit channeling.Â Keywords: Capital Adequacy Ratio, Loan To Deposit Ratio, Non Performing Loan, Return On Asset

Penelitian ini adalah penelitian kualitatif dengan desain deskriptif. Penelitian dilakukan dengan mencari data primer, melalui wawancara terhadap responden (Direktur) dan dokumentasi aktiva peralatan PT. Indah Nugraha Bakti. Hasil penelitian menyarankan bahwa sebaiknya ada pengakuan, pengukuran, penyusutan, penilaian dan pelaporan aktiva peralatan yang tepat agar kondisi aktiva peralatan dapat beroperasi dengan lancar.  PT. Indah Nugraha Bakti dalam melakukan pengakuan, pengukuran, penyusutan, penilaian dan pelaporan terhadap aktiva peralatan berpedoman pada Kebijakan Akuntansi yang pada prinsipnya sudah mendekati Pernyataan Standar Akuntansi Keuangan (PSAK) No. 16.  Dalam hal penyajian dan pengungkapan aktiva peralatan dalam Laporan Keuangan, secara umum tidak menyimpang dari pola yang terdapat pada Standar Akuntansi Keuangan.  Pengendalian internal yang diterapkan pada PT. Indah Nugraha Bakti belum berjalan efektif. Hal tersebut dapat dilihat dari lingkungan pengendalian, tidak adanya komite audit yang mengakibatkan kurangnya pengawasan. Perlu ada pembenahan didalam struktur oraganisasi PT. Indah Nugraha Bakti, antara fungsi accounting dan finance, perlu ada pemisahan tugas dan tanggung jawab. Fungsi accounting dan finance seharusnya tidak dikerjakan oleh satu orang. Perlu adanya komite audit untuk melakukan pengawasan terhadap aktivitas PT.
