Young Entrepreneurs Perspectives on Success in Managing a Startup Business
Authors: Prawiyogi Anggy Giri , Solahudin Aang
Published: June 2023

A person's viewpoint on something related to a purposeful life orientation is what is meant by their perception of success. Each person has their own subjective definition of success. The definition of success varies among young business people because they have diverse standards for what constitutes a successful enterprise. This study aims to determine how business owners evaluate the achievement of their ventures. Two Acehnese company owners with new ventures comprised the study's respondents. Detailed interviews with each respondent were done to collect research data. The theory of Perception of Success served as the foundation for the interview questions. The results of the interviews demonstrate that success is perceived differently depending on what success means to each person. According to Respondent I, a successful business

Authors: Kedah Zulkarnain
Published: June 2023

The process of purchasing, offering for sale, or transferring goods, services, and information over computer networks is known as electronic commerce (e-commerce). E-commerce is a subset of e-business, which has a broader definition that includes business partners, customer support, and job openings in addition to commercial activities. A database or database (database), e-mail or electronic mail (e-mail), non-computer technology in the form of different delivery systems, and a method of payment for e-commerce are additional requirements for e-commerce in addition to networking technologies. Given that e-commerce is electronic, customers can access and place orders from many locations. Given the current state of modern technology, a client wishing to access online shopping need not physically be there, as there are numerous locations in Indonesia's major cities that offer Wi-Fi-enabled internet access via laptop, notebook, or Personal Digital Assistant (PDA). So, this is a crucial time for businesses to establish e-commerce services. E-commerce is still largely unused in Indonesia. Following some background information, the author talks about the benefits of e-commerce to his business goals.

Published: June 2023

Background: This study investigated NHS Health Check programme delivery before and after the Covid-19 pandemic response, with a focus on support services and referral methods available to Health Check attendees. The NHS Health Check is an important part of England’s Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) prevention programme.

Methods: Public health commissioners from all 151 local authorities responsible for commissioning the NHS Health Check programme were surveyed in 2021, using an online questionnaire to capture detail about programme delivery, changes in delivery because of the pandemic response, and monitoring of programme outcomes. Four-point rating scales were used to obtain level of confidence in capacity, accessibility and usage of follow-on support services for Health Check attendees. A typology of programme delivery was developed, and associations between delivery categories and a range of relevant variables were assessed using one-way analysis of variance.

Results: Sixty-eight responses were received on behalf of 74 local authorities (49%), across all geographical regions. Our findings suggest a basic typology of delivery, though with considerable variation in who is providing the Checks, where and how, and with continued changes prompted by the Covid-19 pandemic. Support for risk management is highly varied with notable gaps in some areas. Local authorities using a model of delivery that includes community venues tended to have a higher number of services to support behaviour change following the Check, and greater confidence in the accessibility and usage of these services. A minority of local authorities gather data on referrals for Health Check attendees, or on outcomes of referrals.

Conclusions: The Covid-19 pandemic has prompted key innovations in delivery, which are likely to influence patient experience and outcomes; these need careful evaluation. The programme’s delivery and intention to follow through risk communication with appropriate support is challenged by the complexity of the commissioning landscape.
STUDY GROUP SIZE, MOTIVATION AND ENGAGEMENT IN THE DIGITAL ERA
Authors: Davidovitch Nitza , Yavich Roman
Published: June 2023

This study explored the relationship between the size of the study group and the motivation and engagement of students in online and face-to-face classes while exploring the effect of personal and academic background variables, the number of students in the study group, and the level of their motivation to study. The study included 122 participants, students in their second, third, or fourth year of academic studies, who had experienced online studies during Covid-19 as well as face-to-face studies. They had all participated in both small classes (35 students or less) and large classes (more than 35 students). The study indicates that there is indeed a significant difference in students’ motivation and engagement, irrespective of the size of the study group, and the difference in motivation depends on the method of delivery, whether online or traditional (face-to-face). The research results reveal new knowledge regarding online studies and help enrich the literature on this topic, in the context of motivation for online studies and the size of the study group, which are significant causes underlying students’ academic success. It is evident from the study that size does not affect motivation, which is solely the student’s responsibility. The challenge of academic institutions and lecturers in the digital era is to raise students’ motivation and engagement, irrespective of the study group.

Authors: Rochovská Ivana , Švábová Božena
Published: June 2023

Creative drama has great potential and its implementation in education from pre-school education requires research, as evidenced by the number of scientific studies that have been registered in international research databases over the last ten years. The aim of the research was to examine the use of creative drama methods within kindergartens in Slovakia from the perspective of the kindergarten teaching staff (teachers and teaching assistants). A quantitative research design was used. 407 kindergarten teaching staff responded to the items of the questionnaire of the authors' construction. From the results of the research, it is possible to state that there is an average level of knowledge of creative drama among kindergarten teaching staff (based on their self-reflection). Furthermore, based on the self-reflection of the teaching staff, it can be stated that there are below-average opportunities for their education in the area of creative drama and a below-average level of using creative drama methods in kindergartens. Nevertheless, the status of the use of creative drama methods has improved over the last 10 years. The results of the research are a stimulus for further research - analysis of the responses of the teaching staff in terms of their age and pedagogical practice in order to estimate the development of the current state of using creative drama in kindergartens.

AZD7442 (tixagevimab-cilgavimab) is a combination of two human monoclonal antibodies for pre-exposure prophylaxis of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection among high-risk patients who do not mount a reliable vaccine response. Foremost among these are hematologic malignancy patients with limited clinical trial or realworld experience to assess the effectiveness of this combination treatment since the emergence of Omicron and its subvariants. We performed a retrospective study of 892 high-risk hematologic malignancy patients who received AZD7442 at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City from January 1, 2022 to July 31, 2022. We evaluated demographic, clinical, and laboratory characteristics and performed regression analyses to evaluate risk factors for breakthrough infection. We also evaluated the impact of updated AZD7442 dosing regimens on the risk of breakthrough infection. Among 892 patients, 98 (10.9%) had a breakthrough infection during the study period. A majority received early outpatient treatment (82%) and eventually eight (8.2%) required hospitalization for management of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), with a single instance of severe COVID-19 and death. Patients who received a repeat dose or a higher firsttime dose of AZD7442 had a lower incidence of breakthrough infection. Univariate analyses did not reveal any significant predictors of breakthrough infection. While AZD7442 is effective at reducing SARS-CoV-2 breakthrough infection in patients with hematologic malignancies, no risk factors reliably predicted risk of infection. Patients who received updated dosing regimens as per Food and Drug Administration guidelines had better protection against breakthrough infection.

Measurable residual disease (MRD) is a powerful predictor of outcome in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In the early phases of treatment, MRD refines initial disease risk stratification and is used for the allocation to allogeneic transplant (HSCT). Despite its well-established role, a relatively high fraction of patients eventually relapses albeit achieving MRDneg status. The aim of this work was to assess specifically the influence of baseline features and treatment intensity on the predictive value of an MRDneg status, particularly focusing on MRD2, measured after 2 consecutive chemotherapeutic cycles. Among baseline features, younger MRD2neg patients (

Published: June 2023

This study was aimed for the investigation of the effect of pretreatment procedure of alkaline, based on the chemical arrangement, surface morphology, structural composition and enzymatic assimilation of sugarcane bagasse for sugars and ethanol production. Alkali pretreatment (0 to 8% w/v of NaOH) assists to reduce the lignin portion (from 19.57±0.03% to 9.91±0.02%) and increase the cellulose content of the treated SB (from 34.66±0.05% to 63.58±0.05%) simultaneously. The optimal conditions for alkali pretreatment were 8% NaOH charge at 100oC for 90 min. Enzymatic digestibility of alkali treated SB was significantly improved and hydrolysis yield reached to 89.59% glucose and 61.23% xylose at an prime level using Trichoderma viridae. Further hydrolysate of 8% (w/v) alkali treated SB sample was fermented by Saccharomyces cerevisiae to convert sugar into ethanol and yield was 16.81±0.32% in 24 h. Alkali pretreatment was found to be a treatment of choice for cellulose hydrolysis in SB and subsequent sugar acquired for the production of ethanol during fermentation.

Validation of a Multiplex PCR for the Simultaneous Detection of E. coli and Class 1 Integron
Authors: Hasan Asif Md Fuad , Bhowmik Anindita , Islam Mohammad Nurul , Ahsan Sunjukta
Published: June 2023

Antibiotic resistant E. coli in the animal gut can promote the transfer of antibiotic resistance between animal and human. In order to enforce the National Action Plan in Bangladesh, it is imperative to detect the presence of E. coli harbouring Class 1 integrons that can potentially transfer antibiotic resistance genes among bacteria. Previously used primers pairs were used in a multiplex PCR to successfully detect the E. coli species-specific amplicon and Class 1 integron in 57% of the isolates. Plasmid was absent in the isolates. Antibiotic resistance profiling indicated highest resistance to oxytetracycline (89%) and lowest resistance to streptomycin (18.52%). A total of 38% isolates were found to be resistant against 8 of the 10 antibiotics used, 85.19% being multidrug resistant. However, the resistance pattern could not be specifically correlated to the presence of Class 1 integron. The validated multiplex PCR can be used as a quick method to detect E. coli and Class 1 integron simultaneously.

In vitro Conservation and Exploiting Polyembryonate Potential of Synthetic Seeds of Malaxis acuminata D. Don
Authors: Kaur Saranjeet
Published: June 2023

Synthetic seeds were prepared in Malaxis acuminata by encapsulating shoot tip derived protocorm-like bodies (PLBs; 0.2-0.5 cm) in a hydrated gel capsule composed of calcium alginate matrix (sodium alginate; 3.5% and calcium chloride; 75 mM) in liquid Murashige and Skoog, 1962 (MS) medium. Synthetic seeds varied in physical features with the concentration of gelling agent and calcium chloride. In in vitro germination, the optimum response was achieved in MS medium fortified with BAP (1mgl-1); where synthetic seeds germinated with 100% frequency. Physically firm, globular, non-leaky, and self-breaking beads germinated efficiently which could be stored for up to 90 days at 4℃. At room temperature, synthetic seeds germinated with 50% frequency after 15 days and the germination frequency steadily reduced to 0% after 45 days of storage. Under in vivo conditions, synthetic seeds showed 80% bead-to-plant conversion in MS medium supplemented with antibacterial, antifungal agents and BAP (1mg/I).

Authors: Haider Ishita , Sarker RaKha Hari , Hoque Md Imdadul
Published: June 2023

An efficient Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation protocol has been developed in the present investigation to integrate salinity tolerant gene pea DNA helicase (PDH45) in two peanut varieties, Dhaka-1 and BARI Chinabadam-8. Decapitated half-embryo explants of the above-mentioned varieties were also used to develop a transformation compatible in vitro regeneration system. MS medium supplemented with 5.0 mg/l BAP and 0.5 mg/l Kn showed maximum response for shoot induction in both varieties. Half strength of MS medium supplemented with 0.2 mg/l IBA showed better response towards root induction for both varieties. Genetic transformation experiments were performed using Agrobacterium strain LBA4404 containing pCAMBIA1301-PDH45 conferring reporter gus gene, hygromycin resistance hpt gene, and salinity tolerant gene pdh45. The transformation variables were optimized, OD600 1.4 with 45 minutes of incubation period, and three days of co-culture showed the best performance. The transformed shoots were selected using 30 mg/l hygromycin. The overall transformation frequency was very low, where 0.10% shoots of Dhaka-1 and 0.07% shoots of BARI Chinabadam-8 survived the selection pressure. The stable integration of the transgene in the transformed shoots was confirmed through PCR analysis.

Authors: Rani Sushila , Puri Richa , Boora Pooja , Qasim Abul , Mehta Monika
Published: June 2023

The present study has developed a reproducible in vitro micropropagation protocol for endemic and endangered Thalictrum foliolosum by using leaf and root segments. Thalictrum foliolosum possesses high medicinal properties due to the presence of valuable phenols, flavonoids and alkaloids. The plants are uprooted due to their high medicinal and clinical applications, hence can lead to extinction threat. In vitro leaf and root, explant was used for induction of multiple shoots on MS medium supplemented with plant growth regulators like benzyl amino purine(BAP), indole-3- butyric acid (IBA), 1-Naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) alone or in combination.  The best positive response for the formation of shoots from the leaf segment was obtained from MS media supplemented with BAP (1.0 mg/l) + NAA (0.6 mg/l) after 4 weeks and Maximum roots were formed on MS + IBA (0.6 mg/l) within 4-5 weeks. Likewise, the maximum percentage of shooting and rooting from root explant was obtained in MS + BAP (0.8 mg/l) + TDZ (0.4 mg/l) and MS + IAA (1.0 mg/l) + NAA (2.0 mg/l) after 4 weeks. The well-rooted acclimatized plantlets were successfully transferred to field conditions.

Downregulation of the OsAKT1 K+/Na+ Transporter Gene by CRISPR-Cas9 Mediated Transformation in Sensitive Rice IR29 Makes it Tolerant to Salt Stress
Authors: Khan Imran , Laboni Aysha Akter , Azim Tomalika , Elias Sabrina M , Seraj Zeba I
Published: June 2023

The coastal area of Bangladesh is affected by soil salinity which threatens rice production. Saline soils are mainly caused by excessive Na+ which interferes with the uptake of the essential nutrient K+. Certain K+ transporters may cause leakage of Na+ ions and the OsAKT1 transporter was earlier shown to be downregulated under salt stress in a tolerant rice landrace called Horkuch. We therefore targeted this gene for Crispr-mediated downregulation by Agrobacterium-mediated in planta transformation in salt sensitive IR29 rice. The gene was shown to be significantly downregulated in at least 3 independent transformants. One of the gene edited IR29 transformants showed significantly high survival, low loss in chlorophyll content, low electrolyte leakage as well as low H2O2 after 15-days of salt stress at 120mM NaCl at the T3 generation. Therefore the potassium transporter OsAKT1 gene is a good target for downregulation to produce salt tolerant rice.

Ethnicity and Identity Politics in the Context Of Chittagong Hill Tracts of Bangladesh
Authors: Mahmud S M Arif
Published: June 2023

This article concerns ethnicity and identity politics in Chittagong Hill Tracts of Bangladesh. This article used the power relation approach of Foucault, Althusser, and Mills, Barth’s idea of ethnicity and boundary maintenance, primordial and instrumentalist approaches to ethnicity, and primordial and socia-constructionist approaches to identity. The politics of identity formation and movements of Bangalee, Chakma, and Tripura ethnic communities are associated with multidimensional issues. Some of these are - collectiveness, struggle for existence, ensuring rights, protecting traditions, and securing land and natural resources of the hills. The study used qualitative data collection methods such as observation and participation, key informant interviews, life history, case studies, and narratives. Data analysis followed the qualitative technique by interpreting various aspects or layers of meaning and relationships among ethnic communities. The findings further show that Chakma and Tripura communities bear a nationalist and political ideology through the term Jumma, while Bangalees have a reconstructed image of the hill Bangalee. This article, thus, critically examines the politics of identity formation in CHTs, focusing on inter-ethnic relations of power and political practices.

Conflict Sensitivity in Development: A Study On Proposed Arial Beel International Airport Project In Bangladesh
Authors: Islam Md Touhidul
Published: June 2023

This paper has dual objectives: to understand the importance of conflict sensitivity in development and to examine the relevance of conflict sensitivity in practical terms through a case study—the proposed Arial Beel International Airport Project. Written, based on secondary resources available in books, journal articles, and online sources, it argues that conflictsensitive approaches to development pay attention to contextual realities to avoid any intentional and unintentional ‘harm’ that a context may face due to insensitive developmental intervention. On the Arial Beel case, it found that a localised, violent resistance movement developed against the decision to construct a modern airport due to inadequate attention to local realities and inappropriate pre-project development assessment processes. The government had to backtrack the project. However, at the latter stage, the decision-makers learned to respect local sensitivities while looking for alternative sites for an airport project. It suggests an insensitive development project that becomes unwanted too to locals could influence policymakers to learn about contextual sensitivities and respect the pulse of people on the ground.

The Geopolitics of Vaccine Diplomacy: Navigating Sinojapanese Competition in Southeast Asia
Authors: Shamsunnahar  , Akon Md Saifullah
Published: June 2023

The intensification of Sino-Japanese antipathy in Southeast Asia through competitive vaccine diplomacy is a significant development, given the region’s geopolitical importance to both rivals. Despite this, there has been a lack of research on the geopolitical dimensions of Japan and China’s vaccine contestation in Southeast Asia. Thereby, this study aims to examine the influence of geopolitics on Sino-Japanese competitive vaccine diplomacy in the region, using online-based secondary data. The study argues that both China and Japan have donated millions of vaccine shots to Southeast Asian countries to reinforce their relationships with the region, driven by their respective geopolitical interests. Overall, this research contributes to a deeper understanding of the interplay between geopolitics and vaccine diplomacy in Southeast Asia.

La expansión urbana es un fenómeno recurrente hoy en día en ciudades latinoamericanas intermedias. En Cuenca, Ecuador, la mayoría de los planes de vivienda de interés público que se construyen actualmente, se desarrollan en la periferia urbana, en conjuntos con viviendas unifamiliares adosadas, lo que contribuye al crecimiento desmedido de la ciudad. Los entes municipales promotores de estos proyectos aseguran que existe un rechazo de las personas a vivir en edificaciones de mediana altura, pese a que esto supondría varias ventajas relacionadas a un consumo de suelo menor. El presente estudio indaga sobre las condiciones de habitabilidad en conjuntos residenciales de mediana altura que se construyeron en la ciudad a finales del siglo XX, para establecer aquellas características de la habitabilidad que son más valoradas por los usuarios y que deberían ser tomadas en cuenta al momento de proyectar esta tipología de vivienda. La habitabilidad es medida a través de una encuesta que aborda aspectos físicos y psicosociales. Se utiliza la metodología Kansei-Kano para cuantificar datos cualitativos basados en la percepción. Los resultados obtenidos permiten determinar que temas como seguridad, calidad del espacio físico y presencia de estacionamientos son temas importantes para generar buenas condiciones de habitabilidad.Palabras clave: Expansión urbana, ciudades intermedias, kansei, kano, seguridad.

AbstractUrban sprawl is a recurrent phenomenon in intermediate Latin American cities. In Cuenca, Ecuador, most of the public-interest housing projects that are currently being built consist of single-family attached houses located in perimetral areas, which undoubtedly contributes to the excessive growth of the city. Municipal entities that promote these projects assure that people refuse to live in mid-rise buildings, even though this would entail several advantages due to a lower consumption of land. This study investigates the habitability conditions in medium-rise residential complexes that were built at the end of the 20th century to establish the habitability aspects that the users value the most and should be considered in public-interest housing projects. Habitability is measured through a survey that addresses physical and psychosocial aspects; the Kansei-Kano methodology is used to quantify qualitative data based on the perceptions of those who currently live in mid-rise residential complexes. The results obtained allow us to draw conclusions such as the importance of security, space quality, and parking spaces in order to generate good habitability conditions.

EXPERIENCE OF FUNCTIONING OF THE SYSTEM OF TECHNICAL SUPPLY OF THE FORCE STRUCTURES OF THE LEADING COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD IN CRISIS SITUATIONS
Authors:   The National academy of hte National Guard of Ukraine, Yemanov V.
Published: June 2023

The article analyzes the functioning of the system of technical support of the power structures of the leading countries of the world in crisis situations. Some problematic aspects of equipping the military formations of the security and defense sector of Ukraine are considered. One of the aspects of the development of the technical support of the security forces of Ukraine, in the conditions of crisis situations, is its adaptation to NATO standards. The directions of development of systems of technical support of the armed forces of the leading NATO member countries are given. The appearance of new modern types of weapons and military equipment has always caused the need to develop not only new forms and methods of using troops (forces) in operations (combat operations), but also new approaches to their comprehensive support. This concerns: the structure of the technical support system itself; organizing the recovery of weapons and military equipment, taking into account possible losses during operations (combat); norms of stocks of weapons and military equipment and their echeloning both in peacetime and in a special period; management of technical support of troops (forces) in operations. The further development of the technical support of the security forces of Ukraine in crisis situations can be considered to be the improvement of the mechanisms of supplying OVST to units of the operational-tactical and tactical units, bringing the standards of belonging and supply to NATO standards, adapting the regulatory and legal framework of the technical support of the security forces of Ukraine to NATO standards.

Relasi antara desentralisasi dan otonomi daerah mengarahkan bahwa pemerintah daerah bertanggung jawab terhadap berbagai aspek di masyarakat salah satunya adalah penanganan gangguan ketenteraman, ketertiban umum, dan perlindungan masyarakat. Sayangnya, peraturan perundang-undangan di indonesia belum seluruhnya bisa menjadi rujukan bagi pemerintah daerah dikarenakan materi muatan yang masih kosong (rechtvacuum). Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah yuridis normatif dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan. Hasil penelitian ini mendeskripsikan bahwa peraturan daerah tentang penanganan gangguan ketenteraman, ketertiban umum dan perlindungan masyarakat, setidaknya harus memenuhi 3 (tiga) landasan, yaitu filosofis, sosiologis, dan yuridis. Adapun kerangka arah materi muatan setidaknya terdiri dari 12 BAB yang mencakup muatan diantaranya FORKOPIMDA, KID, dan pemetaan wilayah potensi gangguan ketenteraman dan ketertiban umum.

Жизненный цикл объекта капитального строительства состоит из нескольких стадий, каждая из которых аккумулирует определенный объем информации, необходимый для осуществления процессов следующей стадии и реализации строительного проекта в целом. Качество, сроки исполнения и экономическая эффективность строительного проекта зависят в том числе и от того, насколько достоверно и непрерывно будет аккумулироваться и передаваться информация. Современный уровень развития информационных технологий позволяет на каждой из стадий жизненного цикла объекта создать цифровую информационную модель, которая содержит сведения о возводимом объекте и автоматизирует решение многих организационных и технологических задач. Благодаря обеспечению достоверности и преемственности данных на всех стадиях жизненного цикла, можно сформировать актуальную цифровую информационную модель сноса и демонтажа, способствующую организации результативной системы управления отходами строительного производства. Наличие такой информационной модели на стадии ликвидации объекта позволит эффективно осуществлять дальнейшее прогнозирование и планирование обращения со строительными отходами.

Bureaucratic Turbulence After the Transfer of Structural to Functional Positions at the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs
Authors: Nasution Indra Muhammad Nur
Published: June 2023

This research described the phenomenon of bureaucratic turbulence in the Coordinating Ministry for Economic Affairs after the transfer of structural to functional positions. Furthermore, changes in the organization and individual civil servants were characterized by organizational, position, and performance transformations. The policy of switching functional roles is considered as the most effective method for transforming the lengthy, cumbersome, and slow bureaucratic chain into a new mode of operation based on coordination and collaboration. This research used a qualitative approach that begins with assumptions, perspectives, problem studies, and theoretical used to investigate information from individuals and groups on a social problem. Meanwhile, data collection is carried out by documentation, observation, and literature research to be analyzed and concluded. The results showed that turbulence occurs during the transition period as a process of shifting work culture, behavior, and changes in the mindset of civil servants. The changing needs of the skuel model with a flat circular structure prioritize collaboration and coordination across work groups. Changes in three areas of bureaucratic simplification, such as organizational, position, and performance transformations, resulted in turbulence within the organization. The implementation of functional positions should be reviewed. This is because the implementation requires many apparatus with generalist competency who have greater insight and opportunities to occupy several positions with a wider scope. Generalist competency is needed to link economic affairs across ministries and agencies. Therefore, innovation and problem-solving can be conducted comprehensively through a wider helicopter view.
