Authors: Komonmanee Kettapan  , Onuma Suphattanakul
Published: September 2024

Generation Z people are a significant force driving the modern world. They lead educated lifestyles, enjoy expressing themselves creatively, and prefer to seek out new ideas or approaches to achieve the finest results. The research study aims to examine the tourism motivation and the image that affects the cultural tourism decisions of tourists of Generation Z. The study employed quantitative research techniques to gather data from 385 Thai Generation Z tourists. The research findings revealed that status and prestige significantly influenced cultural tourism decisions, followed by cultural, emotional, affective, physical, and interpersonal motivation. Moreover, the pre-conceptualized image of the tourist destinations has the most significant influence on cultural tourism decisions, followed by tourists' perceptions and the tourists' feelings. This has practical implications for economic development at both the national and regional levels. At the same time, it reflects much about Generation Z's needs and expectations, calling for the urgency to preserve the cultural heritage of the locality and the country as a whole. This is expected to maintain the value of cultural tourism,  generating a balance of development in the future.

Published: September 2024

In a fiercely competitive business landscape, the optimization of supply chain management (SCM) strategies and the integration of robust corporate digital competencies stand as pivotal determinants for sustained success across various industries, including the fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) sector. The study investigates the dynamic interplay between SCM strategies, corporate digital competencies, and operational performance. Through a hypothesis testing research design, the examination sought to determine the influence of these variables. The study revealed strong support for the hypothesis that SCM strategies significantly impact corporate digital competencies and, in turn, operational performance. The results indicated a direct positive relationship between SCM strategies and operational performance while corporate digital competencies indirectly influenced operational performance through their mediation between SCM strategies and operational effectiveness. The findings underscored the integral role of corporate digital competencies in enhancing the efficacy of SCM strategies, amplifying operational performance, and driving customer-centric value. These implications stress the imperative for businesses to strategically align their SCM processes with digital competencies to effectively navigate market complexities and ensure long-term competitiveness.

Published: September 2024

The Sundanese ethnic diaspora to Southeast Sulawesi, especially Sindangkasih Village, South Konawe, Southeast Sulawesi creates the potential for social interaction between the two different cultures. This interaction can produce harmony or conflict, while in certain aspects, it may create a new culture that is interesting to preserve. This research aims to identify, group, and analyze the forms of diaspora religious cultural treasures from the diaspora community. We recorded and mapped the potential diaspora of Sundanese religious cultural treasures in Sindangkasih Village, as well as identifying cultural interactions between immigrants and local culture, including the possibility of a dominant culture among them. In theory, the concept of diaspora is explained as a time when a nation is scattered throughout the world but still maintains collective myths or memories about its homeland. By distinguishing between migrants and diaspora, this research tries to understand the dynamics of social and cultural interactions between ethnic Sundanese and local communities, as well as the implications for cultural diversity in Southeast Sulawesi.
The Counterrevolution Will Be Televised: Propaganda and Egyptian Television since the Revolution
Authors: Khalifa Amr
Published: September 2024

If you were sitting in your living room in Egypt four years ago when tens of thousands flooded the streets, unless you were tuned to Al Jazeera, you would have likely had no clue. An uprising ignored by the press is not an error of omission; it is systematic suppression of information by the upper echelons of the Egyptian media. More than four years have passed and it appears little has changed in terms of the type of narrative emerging from Egypt’s national media. In the last 6 months several leaks[1] have emerged, offering further proof of a media in cahoots with the state. To understand this dynamic is to comprehend, at least in part, why Egypt remains in a precarious position. From the first days, state television sought to obstruct Egypt’s volcanic revolution. How this could occur in the age of the Internet, particularly in a nation where penetration rates had exploded by 2014[2], is a testament to the power of an Egyptian media wedded, at the corrupt altar of propaganda, to the Egyptian state. Cameras were turned in the other direction, showing a quiet Nile Corniche as, just hundreds of meters away, demonstrators faced off against police to decide the country’s future, and it did not stop there. In the great tradition of modern Egyptian media, subtlety was lacking. As articulated in a February 2011 piece in Foreign Policy[3], “Egyptian state media began running an insidious propaganda campaign in an apparent effort to terrorize ordinary Egyptians into staying at home and off the streets.”
The Age of TV Jokers: Arab Media on the Brink
Authors: Baroud Ramzy
Published: September 2024

Two months following the US invasion of Iraq, late Palestinian professor Edward Said had an ominous prediction that is sadly becoming truer by the day. “The Arab people today face a wholesale attack on their future by an imperial power, America, that acts in concert with Israel, to pacify, subdue, and finally reduce us to a bunch of warring fiefdoms whose first loyalty is not to their people but to the great superpower (and its local surrogate) itself,” he wrote in Egypt’s Ahram Weekly[1]. “What is now needed is a breaking of the iron bands that tie Arab societies into sullen knots of disaffected people, insecure leaders, and alienated intellectuals.” It was as if Said was reading into the future, in all of its painful details. His “alienated intellectual” features prominently in today’s tragic reality, where a daily war on the very Arab identity is being waged through Arab media.
الإعلام والإرهاب .. على خط المواجهة

لقد أصبح الإرهاب بكافة أشكاله ظاهرة عالمية تخطت أخطارها كل الحدود، وأدركت كل دول العالم وشعوبه حتمية تنسيق الجهود لمحاصرته والتصدي له. وفي كل المحاولات المحلية والإقليمية والدولية التي سعت لوضع خطط واستراتيجيات لمكافحة الإرهاب كان "الإعلام" حاضرًا علي الدوام بوصفه أحد أهم الوسائل التى يمكن -إذا ما أحسن توظيفها- أن تكون أدوات فاعلة للتصدي للإرهاب والقضاء عليه. ولقد برزت أهمية دور الإعلام بوصفه محددًا هامًا لتفاقم ظاهرة الإرهاب، وفي الوقت ذاته وسيلة هامة للقضاء عليها، ولطالما اتُّهِمت وسائل الإعلام بتوفير بيئة خصبة لإنتاج وصناعة الإرهاب بما تنشره وتروج له من قيم وأفكار متطرفة، كما أنها كثيرًا ما تكون منابر يخاطب -من خلالها - الإرهابيون كل شعوب العالم مدافعين عن وجهات نظرهم ومبررين أعمالهم الإرهابية وداعين لمزيد من الدعم والتأييد. ويبدو أن التطورات المتلاحقة التي شهدها العالم بثورتي الاتصال وتكنولوجيا المعلومات قد وفرت فرصًا غير مسبوقة للإرهاب كي يبث رسائله وأفكاره عبر الحدود دون عوائق أو قيود. وفي ظل تكنولوجيا الاتصال اكتسب الإرهاب زخمًا واسعًا بسبب ما أتاحه له الإعلام من ذيوع وانتشار، ولطالما كانت العلاقة بين الإرهاب والإعلام مثار جدل وخلاف، هل هي علاقة دعم أم علاقة مواجهة؟!. وإيمانًا بالدور المهم الذي يضطلع به الإعلام في مكافحة الإرهاب تعرض هذه الورقة لحدود العلاقة بين الإرهاب والإعلام في محاولة للوقوف على ملامح استراتيجية إعلامية للتصدي للإرهاب وتفنيد مزاعمه. ….والله من وراء القصد....
إدارة الأزمات الإرهابية إعلاميًا: أزمة “شارلي إيبدو” نموذجًا
Authors: Elsanosy Thoraya
Published: September 2024

"تشارلي إيبدو" وسبل إدارتها إعلاميًا، ومن خلال مقاربة نظرية حاولنا الإجابة عن الإشكالية التالية: إلى أي مدى يمكن الإقرار بوجود "أزمة" عند الحديث عن الهجوم الإرهابي الذي تعرضت له الصحيفة الفرنسية الساخرة "شارلي إيبدو" والذي تبناه التنظيم الإرهابي للدولة الإسلامية (داعش)؟ وماهي ملامح إدارة الأزمة المدروسة إعلاميًا؟. وقد توصلنا إلى جملة من النتائج، لعل أهمها أن حادثة "شارلي إيبدو" قد شرعت للحديث عن أزمة على اعتبار أنها حالة طارئة أدت إلى الاخلال ليس فقط بالأوضاع الداخلية بالصحيفة الفرنسية الساخرة بل وبالوضع الأمني بالبلاد وبالعالم ككل، وهي تستجيب لمقومات "الأزمة" الناتجة عن حدث إرهابي؛ وذلك لأن ملامحها وملابساتها وتداعياتها تتماهى ومفهوم "الأزمة" نظريًا. ومن خلال دراستنا لأبجديات إدارة الأزمات إعلاميًا، ومقارنتنا لما نشر فعليًا في عدد من البلدان الغربية، بينا أن الهدف من وراء شنّ حملة "أنا تشارلي" قد تجاوز إظهار الدّعم المعنوي لإعلاميي الجريدة، ودخل ضمن منظومة التأجيج الإعلامي للأزمة فور حدوثها، والتي برزت ملامحها جليّة من خلال إعادة نشر الصور المسيئة للرسول الأكرم في العديد من وسائل الإعلام الأرووبيّة وحتى الأمريكيّة. وهو مؤشّر يؤكد أنّ وسائل الإعلام قد تتجاوز دورها الرّيادي في معالجة الأزمات بتغطيتها، لتصبح شريكًا في صناعتها والتسويق لها؛ وبالتالي الحياد عن المسؤوليّة الاجتماعيّة التي يجب على الإعلام الاضطلاع بها، والمتمثلة في إنارة الرأي العام لا تضليله، واعتماد معايير أخلاقيّة سامية كالحياد والموضوعيّة والمصداقيّة في نقل الأحداث، لا تبنّي أجندات والانحياز إلى خطابات دون أخرى -خطاب الإسلاموفوبيا في هذه الحالة-، والاضطلاع بالدور التسويقي له، وهو ما يفضي إلى أزمة الإعلام، وهذا هو ما تدور حوله تلك الورقة العلمية.

O câncer colorretal (CCR) é o terceiro tipo de câncer mais frequente no Brasil, sendo uma causa de morbimortalidade relevante em cenário mundial. O desenvolvimento do CCR é de caráter multifatorial, englobando fatores genéticos e ambientais. Comumente, a doença é originada a partir de pólipos adenomatosos do trato gastrintestinal. Determinados fatores de risco são associados ao CCR, como idade avançada, presença de doenças inflamatórias intestinais e fatores comportamentais. Nesse contexto, o principal objetivo do estudo é realizar uma revisão de literatura acerca dos fatores de risco e métodos de rastreamento referentes ao câncer colorretal. Com esse fim, o estudo é caracterizado como uma revisão sistemática de literatura de cunho descritivo e qualitativo, foi realizado através de pesquisas nas plataformas eletrônicas Google Acadêmico, SciELO e PubMed, a partir dos descritores “câncer colorretal”, “fatores de risco”, “diagnóstico”, “rastreamento” e “colonoscopia”. Ademais, consultas nos portais do Ministério da Saúde e do Instituto Nacional de Câncer também foram efetuadas. Desse modo, foram selecionadas 15 pesquisas para comporem o estudo, em que essas apontam os fatores de risco modificáveis como agravantes da doença, além da necessidade de iniciar estratégias de rastreamento para pacientes com 50 anos ou mais, independente da presença de fatores de risco. Em suma, conclui-se que a identificação desses fatores possibilita a estratificação de pacientes que se encontram em grupos de risco, permitindo a adoção de medidas preventivas direcionadas que contribuem para a redução da incidência da doença.

Published: September 2024

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of Biodentine and a combination of bromelain with Biodentine as direct pulp capping materials.
Methods: This clinical study included 26 participants with mature permanent mandibular molars exhibiting deep carious lesions without pulpal exposure. The participants were divided into two groups: Group I received Biodentine alone, while Group II received a combination of bromelain and Biodentine. Clinical and radiographic follow-ups were performed at 1, 3, and 6 months to assess the success rates of the treatment modalities.
Results: The clinical success rate of Biodentine as a direct pulp capping agent was 92% at 1 month, 100% at 3 months, and 92% at 6 months follow-up. The radiographic success rate was 100% at all intervals. The clinical success rate of the bromelain with Biodentine group was 85% at 1 month, 91% at 3 months, and 100% at 6 months, with corresponding radiographic success rates of 92%, 91%, and 100% at the respective intervals. Statistical analysis revealed no significant difference in success rates between the two groups.
Conclusions: Both Biodentine and the combination of bromelain with Biodentine demonstrated high clinical and radiographic success rates in direct pulp capping. However, there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups, suggesting that bromelain may not provide additional benefits when combined with Biodentine. Further research with larger sample sizes and longer follow-up periods is needed to explore the potential of bromelain and other combinations for direct pulp capping. These findings contribute to our understanding of effective materials for vital pulp therapy and guide clinical decision-making in dental practice.

Introduction: Because of close association of roots of maxillary premolars and molars with maxillary sinuses, effect of periodontal bone loss on sinuses needs to be evaluated.
Objective: The current study aimed to analyze relationship between of maxillary sinus mucosal thickening and alveolar bone loss using computed tomography. Methods: All erupted second premolars, first and second molars in the maxillary arch bilaterally, were assessed for periodontal bone loss (PBL), so 12 points in each patient (mesial and distal sides of each tooth) and at same locations, mucosal thickening (MT) was assessed on maxillary sinus floor. Furthermore, probable effect of each tooth pulpoperiapical condition (PPAC) on sinus mucosal thickening was assessed.
Results: The present study consisted of 110 individuals of which CT images of 220 maxillary sinuses and 639 teeth (total 1278 teeth surfaces) were studied. MT was observed in 71.83% of sinus locations showing thickening of 1-3mm in 64.38%, 3.1-6mm, in 14.71%, 6.1-10mm in 11.33%, and >10mm in 9.59% of cases. PBL was observed in 69.01% of teeth surface locations showing mild alveolar bone loss in 69.84%, moderate in 25.06%, and severe in 5.10% of cases. When statistically analyzed, sinus MT was significantly associated with PBL and PPAC but stronger effect of PBL was present.
Conclusions: In our study, observed prevalence of sinus MT was 71.83% and prevalence of periodontitis was 69.01%. Sinus MT was associated significantly with PBL.

Authors:   Sr Vehicle Integration Engineer GM, Shah Chirag Vinalbhai
Published: September 2024

Real-time transaction monitoring is an essential part of maintaining the security of payment systems. With the increasing number of online transactions, financial institutions face the challenge of detecting and preventing fraudulent transactions in real time. This paper discusses a real-time transaction monitoring system developed using a combination of AI, big data, and biometric authentication. The system has been implemented as a workbench and is divided into five modules. The transaction information is captured and analyzed for fraud detection in the monitoring and analysis module. The transaction analysis is based on big data analysis technology, which incorporates transaction information, customer information, and biometric data for AI modeling. The biometric authentication technology is used to enhance the security of the payment process. The biometric templates are created during customer registration and verified during subsequent transactions. The digital signatures generated using biometric data prevent unauthorized access to customer information. The monitoring and analysis module of the system analyzes the uncertainty and time series of the transaction data. The uncertainty analysis identifies the transaction data that lacks sufficient information for effective fraud detection. Time series analysis is used to detect suspicious transactions occurring at unusual times. The monitoring and analysis module integrates a fraud detection model based on AI technology trained using big data analysis results. It also incorporates additional analysis models to monitor the uncertainty and time-series characteristics of the transaction data. The detected frauds are classified as high, medium, and low risk and reported using different levels of monitoring. High-risk frauds are immediately blocked and reported to the fraud management unit for investigation. Low-risk frauds are flagged for later knowledge updating. The system is trained adaptively, using new knowledge acquired from fraud investigations to retrain the AI model.

Nurses must comprehend the care requirements of glioma patients to control symptoms while in the hospital and deliver individualized treatment. This study aimed to explore the requirements of glioma survivors in hospitals for survivorship care. Using a qualitative descriptive design, it examined patients' experiences and care requirements while hospitalized. We conducted in-depth interviews with 12 patients from a tertiary hospital, concentrating on their needs and experiences related to gliomas. Chinese-language interviews revealed several care needs, such as physical restrictions, difficulties managing symptoms, and shifts in social support. The study discovered that symptom Perception, Symptom management, Management Dilemmas, Variations in Symptom Management Response, and Symptom Management Needs were the four themes. It draws attention to the complexity of glioma survivability and the significant effects of gliomas on the physical, psychological, social, and family facets of patients' lives, underscoring the significance of comprehensive and multifaceted care strategies. The study recommends implementing the Glioma Survivor Treatment Model to offer thorough and customized assistance throughout the treatment process. The complexity of glioma treatment is clarified by this research, which also emphasizes the necessity of specialized symptom management strategies in hospital settings.

Authors: Shufen Wang , Dolendo Glenn
Published: September 2024

The study investigated the relationship between the levels of kinesiophobia, physical exercise, self-efficacy, and physical activity among patients with peritoneal dialysis in China, addressing a critical knowledge gap in this population. It utilized a quantitative descriptive correlational design with a standardized questionnaire adopted from the Simplified Chinese (SC) version of the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK), the Chinese version of the Exercise Self-Efficacy Scale, and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (Short Form) Chinese version (IPAQ-C). Data were collected face-to-face on-site patients from the hospital and online for patients who did not come from the hospital. Statistical analyses, such as Analysis of Variance (ANOVA), Mann-Whitney U test, and Spearman's Rho correlation, revealed associations and differences among patient demographics and health-related variables. The study found moderate levels of kinesiophobia among 191 peritoneal dialysis patients, most of whom were male (57.1%), aged 51-60, and married. There were significant correlations between kinesiophobia and physical activity and associations between physical activity and age groups. Notably, patients had high overall physical self-efficacy and moderate physical activity levels, with differences seen depending on treatment duration. The study emphasizes the importance of tailored interventions that address demographic and psychological factors, advocating for an integrated model that combines strategies to increase physical activity while also reducing kinesiophobia and necessitating that healthcare providers prioritize personalized exercise plans, multidisciplinary care involving psychologists and physiotherapists and comprehensive educational initiatives aimed at specific demographic groups. Through this integrated approach, healthcare teams can effectively assist peritoneal dialysis patients in overcoming barriers to physical activity participation, thereby improving overall health and well-being.

Esta revisão da literatura visa apresentar o impacto das intervenções nutricionais perioperatórias nos resultados clínicos em gastrectomia oncológica com base em artigos de grande impacto literário. MÉTODOS A revisão analisou um total de 37 estudos, incluindo ensaios clínicos randomizados e estudos de coorte retrospectivos, que avaliaram o impacto de várias intervenções nutricionais perioperatórias em desfechos como complicações, tempo de internação e mortalidade. RESULTADOS: Os resultados mostraram que as intervenções nutricionais perioperatórias, como nutrição enteral ou parenteral, suplementação de ácidos graxos ômega-3 e imunonutrição, podem melhorar os resultados clínicos, reduzindo a incidência de complicações e o tempo de internação, além de melhorar a função imunológica e o estado nutricional. No entanto, mais estudos são necessários para determinar o momento ideal, a duração e a composição das intervenções nutricionais. CONCLUSÃO: No geral, esta revisão destaca o potencial das intervenções nutricionais perioperatórias para melhorar os resultados clínicos na gastrectomia oncológica.Palavras-chave: Câncer gástrico; Cuidados Perioperatórios; Desnutrição

No doente crítico, os estoques de antioxidantes estão reduzidos com simultâneo aumento na produção de radicais livres. Dessa forma, por meio da terapia nutricional, é possível administrar, nutrientes antioxidantes (vitaminas A, C e E, selênio e zinco) essenciais para atenuar ou prevenir os efeitos nocivos dos radicais livres, produzidos durante o estresse oxidativo. Objetivo: Investigar o percentual de adequação da ingestão de antioxidantes e sua relação com desfechos clínicos. Métodos: Estudo de coorte prospectivo, analítico, quantitativo, desenvolvido em Fortaleza-Ceará com pacientes críticos, idade ≥ 18 anos, internados em Unidades de Terapia Intensiva (UTI), de julho a dezembro de 2022, em terapia nutricional enteral exclusiva. Os antioxidantes foram avaliados através do volume de dieta prescrita e infundida. Para análise estatística, foram utilizados os testes t-student, qui-quadrado de Pearson e exato de Fisher. Resultados: Participaram 70 pacientes com idade média de 45,3 ± 17,8 anos e a maioria (82,0%) homens. Os pacientes estavam com prescrição de antioxidantes adequados (94%), porém 40% dos pacientes tiveram a quantidade de vitamina A infundida foi insuficiente. Os pacientes que foram a óbito tiveram volume de dieta prescrita (p=0,004) e infundida (p=0,018), significativamente menor, comparado aos que receberam alta da UTI e, consequentemente, de antioxidantes. Conclusão: A prescrição de antioxidantes estava adequada e a vitamina A foi o único antioxidante infundido abaixo do recomendado. Os pacientes que foram a óbito tiveram antioxidantes prescritos e infundidos, significativamente menor, em relação aos que receberam alta da UTI.Palavras-chaves: Unidade de Terapia Intensiva; Nutrição Enteral; Antioxidantes.
