ASSOCIAÇÃO ENTRE A SÍNDROME DE HIPER-IGE E A SÍNDROME DE SWYER-JAMES-MACLEOD EM UM PACIENTE PEDIÁTRICO: UM RELATO DE CASO
Authors: Lima Jussara Silva , Lima João Gabriel Silva Resende , Lima Sarah Inessa Silva Resende , Rodrigues Wellington Francisco
Published: November 2024

Introdução: A Síndrome de Hiper-IgE, também conhecida como Síndrome de Job, é uma condição imunológica rara caracterizada por níveis elevados de imunoglobulina E (IgE), que se associa a infecções cutâneas e pulmonares recorrentes, além de anomalias esqueléticas. Desde sua descrição inicial em 1966, essa síndrome tem desafiado o manejo clínico, especialmente devido à persistência de abscessos cutâneos e infecções por Staphylococcus aureus. A Síndrome de Swyer-James-MacLeod, ou Pulmão Hiperlucente, é uma condição pulmonar associada a infecções respiratórias na infância, que resulta em alterações na vascularização e na ventilação pulmonar. Este estudo visa explorar a relação entre essas duas síndromes em um paciente pediátrico. Objetivo: Documentar e discutir o percurso assistencial de uma criança de oito anos diagnosticada com Hipergamaglobulinemia E e Síndrome do Pulmão Hiperlucente, contribuindo para a compreensão das interações entre essas condições raras. Métodos: Este estudo consiste em um relato de caso descritivo baseado na análise retrógrada do prontuário médico de L.F.C., um paciente atendido em um hospital universitário. A análise incluiu informações clínicas, laboratoriais e de imagem, além de intervenções terapêuticas realizadas. Os dados foram coletados sistematicamente, garantindo a inclusão de informações sobre infecções recorrentes e as manifestações associadas a cada síndrome. A avaliação clínica incluiu um exame físico detalhado e exames laboratoriais para quantificar os níveis de imunoglobulinas. Exames de imagem, como tomografia computadorizada do tórax e cintilografia pulmonar, foram realizados para avaliar a presença de hiperlucência e alterações na perfusão. Resultados: L.F.C. apresentou um histórico de infecções recorrentes, incluindo doze episódios de pneumonia, com complicações como septicemia e derrames pleurais. As culturas de abscessos cutâneos identificaram Staphylococcus aureus, corroborando o perfil infeccioso da hiper-IgE. Os níveis de IgE do paciente superaram 2000 U/mL, e a hiperlucência pulmonar foi confirmada por tomografia. O tratamento incluiu antibióticos e corticosteroides em altas doses. Conclusão: Este caso ilustra a complexidade e a interconexão entre a Síndrome de Hiper-IgE e a Síndrome de Swyer-James-MacLeod, destacando a importância de uma abordagem diagnóstica abrangente e da vigilância clínica em crianças com histórico de infecções recorrentes. A detecção precoce de complicações pulmonares e intervenções terapêuticas adequadas são cruciais para minimizar os impactos a longo prazo sobre a saúde respiratória e a qualidade de vida. Este estudo contribui para a compreensão das interações entre essas síndromes raras e reforça a necessidade de mais pesquisas para explorar suas associações.

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a virus of the Herpesviridae family, widely disseminated in the world population. It is estimated that up to 80% of individuals carry the virus, which can remain latent for years, being reactivated mainly in conditions of immunosuppression. CMV is a major cause of congenital and opportunistic infections in immunocompromised patients, particularly in individuals with HIV/AIDS, transplant recipients and patients undergoing immunosuppressive treatments. Although CMV infection is, in most cases, asymptomatic or mild in immunocompetent individuals, it can manifest in immunocompromised individuals or when the virus is reactivated and affect several organs, including the eyes, causing serious ocular complications such as anterior uveitis.

Published: November 2024

Objective: This study conducted in Sergipe aimed to investigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the diagnosis and treatment of cancer patients. Methods: A quantitative, cross-sectional, observational-analytical study was carried out, involving a sample of the oncological population exposed to the COVID-19 public emergency. Data collection initially occurred through an electronic questionnaire distributed via WhatsApp, and was later carried out in person in the waiting rooms of two public hospitals in Sergipe, due to low electronic adherence. The questionnaire included 22 objective multiple-choice questions about oncological disease and COVID-19. Results: A total of 103 individuals participated, with a mean age of 56.2 years. Men were older compared to women (p=0.049). Breast cancer was the most prevalent, followed by head and neck cancer. The feelings reported included sadness, fear, anxiety, and nervousness upon receiving a cancer diagnosis. Testing positive for COVID-19 was reported by 42.7% of the participants. Conclusion: No significant impacts on the diagnosis and treatment of neoplasms were observed during the COVID-19 pandemic, despite changes in health services. Participants did not report absences or interruptions in oncological treatment, maintaining medical appointments and undergoing tests as needed.
EVALUATION OF THE VIABILITY AND PROTECTION OF CONVENTIONAL AND BT CORN SEEDS UNDER INSECTICIDE TREATMENT AND STORAGE CONDITIONS
Authors: Patrocinio Davi Teixeira , Guimarães Eduardo Ribeiro , de Araújo Nicolas Oliveira , Freire Ana Izabella , de Souza Filipe Bittencourt Machado
Published: November 2024

In the process of seed production and marketing, the preservation of quality during storage is fundamental, especially until the time of sowing. A critical factor is protection against pests, such as those of the orders Coleoptera and Lepidoptera, which can cause losses of up to 20% in the stored product and compromise the germination power and vigor of the seeds. Preventive treatment with insecticides on seeds is a recommended practice to prevent pest attacks on the soil and shoots of young plants, reducing the need for later applications. Although effective, the use of insecticides can, in certain cases, cause phytotoxicity, reducing germination and seedling survival, especially when combined with fungicides. In the case of corn, treatment with insecticides is common in processing units, but there is a lack of data on its effects on genetically modified seeds (such as BT corn). The objective of the study is to evaluate the impact of the main insecticides recommended for corn crops, alone or in combination, both on conventional and BT seeds, focusing on seed germination and vigor in varying storage periods.

Authors: Pedraza Monroy Gadiel , Peralta Antonio Nain , López Vázquez María Enriqueta , Rebolledo García Rosa Laura , Rebolledo Martínez Andrés , Volke Haller Victor Hugo , Espinoza Hernández Vicente
Published: November 2024

Background.  Tropical legumes used as green manure require between 2.5 and 4.5 months of growth to be incorporated into the soil, an increase in planting density and the use of weed biomass is expected to help reduce the time required for the incorporation of legumes. Objective. To determine plant survival and dry matter production of five tropical legumes produced in conjunction with local weeds, as a function of planting density and legume age, to identify the most appropriate alternative to accelerate the incorporation of plant biomass in tropical regions. Methodology. The legumes Canavalia ensiformis, Crotalaria juncea, Cajanus cajan, Sesbania sp. and Mucuna aterrima were established in Veracruz, Mexico. Each species was established at five planting densities and biomass was collected at four ages, 30, 60, 90 and 120 days after sowing (DAS). Results. Plant height, leaf/stem ratio, percentage of broadleaf and narrowleaf weeds, as well as dry matter produced by legumes, weeds, and the total of both, changed as a function of plant age. Implications. To use green manures in a crop rotation system under rainfed conditions, it is necessary to know the amount of biomass of local weeds and legumes produced over time. The results of the study will help to define the most appropriate cutting age for each of the green manure species evaluated. Conclusion. It is concluded that, independent of planting density, as the age of the legumes increases, plant survival and the leaf/stem ratio decrease, but the amount of dry matter increases. C. cajan and C. juncea have a greater capacity to compete with local weeds, which is attributed to the height they can reach in the first 30 DAS. Regardless of the species and planting density, the maximum production of total dry matter per hectare is achieved between 30 and 60 DAS, when it is recommended to incorporate the biomass to produce under rainfed conditions.

Background. Schaeffer's formula has been promoted as an alternative to animal weighting in recent years. However, no studies evaluating the Schaeffer formula in the Black Belly hair sheep breed have been developed. Objective. To evaluate Schaeffer's formula for predicting body weight in male and female Black Belly sheep reared under tropical conditions. Methodology. Body weight (BW, kg), thoracic circumference (TC, cm) and body length (BL, cm) were recorded in 120 Black Belly lambs (60 females and 60 males). The lambs were clinically healthy and aged between 6 and 8 months. Schaeffer's formula for calculating BW was BW (kg) = (BL × TC2)/10838. First, the distributions of the values were examined by means of a histogram showing both sets of values simultaneously. The medians of each set were then obtained and statistically compared using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test to test the null hypothesis of no difference between the two sets of measurements considered. Results. In the present study it was observed that Shaeffer's formula underestimated BW in Black Belly sheep (P<0.05) at about 5.84 kg. This weight represents about 20.40% of the observed mean BW. The underestimation was also much greater than expected in males at approximately 6.88 kg, this weight represents approximately 22.40% of the observed mean BW in males. However, for females the difference was 4.09 kg. This weight represents approximately 15.40% of the observed mean BW for females. Implications. Caution should be exercised in using the Schaffer formula for estimating liveweight in black belly sheep, or some adjustment to this equation should be evaluated to increase its precision and accuracy for predicting liveweight in hair sheep breeds. Conclusion. Under the conditions in which the present study was carried out, it was concluded that Shaeffer's formula underestimated BW in Black Belly sheep. The estimated BW differed from the observed BW (P<0.05), and this parameter was underestimated much more than expected in males than in females, showing that this formula is not accurate in estimating BW in male and female Black Belly sheep. As a result, estimates should be treated with caution. There is a need to develop improved prediction equations for adequate estimation of BW of male and female Black Belly sheep.

Published: November 2024

The research aims to determine the influence of aniline concentration and deposition time on the characteristics of polyaniline prepared using potentiostatic and galvanostatic electrodeposition methods. FTIR characterization data shows the typical peak of polyaniline in the form of the presence of a quinoid functional group at a wavenumber of 1596.16 cm-1. The typical diffraction pattern of polyaniline using XRD was detected at peaks of 2θ 21.1007o and 23.5995o. Polyaniline formed using SEM has a surface morphology that grows in a stacked and irregular manner and has a high conductance value so that it can be used as a substrate in Fe/Ni electrodeposition. The results of the Fe/Ni electrodeposition process when viewed using SEM cause the polyaniline surface morphology to be covered by a Fe/Ni alloy by having an elemental composition from the EDS test data, are iron (Fe) 68.15% and nickel (Ni) 24.83%. Fe/Ni levels from AAS data attached to PANI(pot)-Fe/Ni are 1.1912 ppm and 0.8288 ppm; in PANI(gal)-Fe/Ni are 1.2219 ppm and 0.8392 ppm.

Published: November 2024

Prompt engineering techniques are instructions that enable large language models (LLMs) to solve real-world problems more effectively. These techniques enhance the capabilities of LLMs to generate accurate and efficient responses. Our study examines the challenge of acquiring comprehensive and efficient information in the metaverse through the application of various prompt engineering techniques. The main objective is to improve the accuracy and effectiveness of metaverse-related responses by leveraging LLM capabilities. In this study, 100 questions were generated using GPT, GEMINI, QWEN, and MISTRAL language models focusing on the metaverse. Our experiments indicated that responses often included unrelated information, highlighting the need for prompt engineering techniques. We applied knowledge-based, rule-based, few-shot, and template-based prompt engineering techniques to refine the responses. The performance of GPT, GEMINI, QWEN, and MISTRAL models were evaluated based on criteria including accuracy, timeliness, comprehensiveness, and consistency. Our findings reveal that prompt engineering techniques significantly enhance the efficacy of LLMs in providing improved information retrieval and response generation, aiding users in efficiently acquiring information in complex environments like the metaverse.

Authors: Kaya Demir Didem , Sapancı Ahmet
Published: November 2024

Çağımızın hızla değişen dijital dünyasında, sosyal medya platformları insanların hayatlarında merkezi bir rol oynamaktadır. Sosyal medya, bireylere kendilerini ifade etme, başkalarıyla iletişim kurma ve bilgiye hızlıca ulaşma imkânı sunarken, aynı zamanda psikolojik sağlık üzerinde de önemli etkiler yaratmaktadır. Bu çalışma, anneden algılanan narsisistik özelliklerin sosyal medya kullanımı ve obsesif inanışlar üzerindeki etkilerini inceleyerek, dijital çağın bireylerin bilişsel ve duygusal dünyalarına olan etkilerini anlamayı amaçlamaktadır. Sosyal medya kullanımının obsesif inanışları artırıcı etkisi, narsisistik ebeveynlik ile birleştiğinde, bireylerin psikolojik sağlıklarını nasıl etkilediği bu araştırmanın odak noktasıdır. Bu bağlamda mevcut araştırma, anneden algılanan narsisistik özellikler ile obsesif inanışlar arasındaki ilişkide sosyal medya kullanımının aracılık rolünü incelemektedir. Çalışma, bilişsel terapi yaklaşımına dayalı olarak, narsisistik ebeveynlerin çocukları üzerindeki etkilerini ve sosyal medya kullanımının obsesif inanışlar üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendirmektedir. Araştırmada yordayıcı (predictive) korelasyonel model kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın katılımcıları, yaşları 19 ile 74 arasında değişen 138 kadın ve 171 erkek olmak üzere toplam 309 kişiden oluşmaktadır. Katılımcılar, uygun örnekleme yöntemi ile seçilmiştir. Veriler, Sosyal Medya Kullanım Ölçeği, Obsesif İnanışlar Ölçeği-44 ve Anneden Algılanan Narsisistik Özellikler Ölçeği kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Bulgular, kadınların annelerinden algıladıkları narsisistik özelliklerin erkeklere göre daha yüksek olduğu, erkeklerin ise obsesif inanış düzeylerinin kadınlara göre daha yüksek olduğu, sosyal medya kullanımı düzeyinde ise gruplar arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farkın olmadığını ortaya koymuştur. Aracılık analizi ile ilgili bulgularda ise, anneden algılanan narsisistik özelliklerin obsesif inanışları doğrudan etkilemediğini, ancak sosyal medya kullanımını artırarak bu inanışları etkilediğini göstermektedir. Sosyal medya kullanımının psikolojik sağlık üzerindeki olumsuz etkileri ve bu etkilerin ebeveynlik stilleri ile ilişkisi araştırmanın ana odak noktalarını oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmanın sonucunda, sosyal medya kullanımının kontrol altına alınması ve bilinçli kullanımının teşvik edilmesi, bireylerin psikolojik sağlıklarını korumak açısından önemli öneriler olarak sunulmuştur.

El presente trabajo se propone analizar los despliegues y funcionamientos de la narrativa jurídica durante el golpe cívico-militar en Argentina (1976-1983), a través de categorías teóricas ofrecidas por la literatura. La propuesta indaga sobre las formas en que la escritura literaria ofrece relatos alternativos a la hegemonía discursiva y exterioriza las ilegalidades cometidas por los órganos estatales. El estudio se desarrolla mediante una metodología cualitativa. Utiliza los marcos interpretativos que ofrecen las herramientas conceptuales propuestas por los estudios epistemológicos de “derecho y literatura”. Las fuentes formales con las que se trabajan incluyen los cuerpos normativos en el período indicado y la obra literaria Respiración Artificial (1980) de Ricardo Piglia. La investigación pretende concluir que un estudio iusliterario permitiría visibilizar el carácter denuncialista de la literatura y sus capacidades para exigir la resignificación y el restablecimiento de la justicia.

The Impacts of Political Unrest, Firm Specific and Macroeconomic Factors on the Financial Performance of Insurance Industry in Ethiopia during Youth-Led Mass Anti-Government Protests (2014-2022)
Authors: Ademe Alemu
Published: November 2024

This study investigates the impacts of political unrest; firm-specific and macroeconomic factors on the financial performance of the insurance industry in Ethiopia during youth-led mass anti-government protests. The study used, Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Equity (ROE) as dependent variables. Eight key independent (internal and external) variables are also used. The study selected 17 out of 18 due to the availability of data for the period ranging from 2014 to 2022. The descriptive and multiple regression analyses were done. The results of the study indicate that political violence and terrorism (PV&T) have a negative and significant effect on ROA and ROE, while GDP has a positive and significant effect on ROA and ROE. The findings also show that financial risk (FR) has a negative and significant effect on ROA and ROE but a positive and significant effect on ROA and ROE. Furthermore, the study reveals that the size of company (SZ) and premium growth (PG) have a significant and positive impact on ROA but insignificant effect on ROE as well as liquidity (LQ) and asset tangibility (ATG) have a significant negative effect on ROE but insignificant effect on ROA. The inflation rate (INF) has no effect for both models on Ethiopian insurance financial performance. This study is considered one of the first pioneering studies that determined the factors affecting the financial performance of insurance companies in Ethiopia. Therefore, the study gives good insights to policymakers, regulators, and interested parties about enhancing the profitability of insurance companies in Ethiopia.

Living Faith: Faith of the Burgher Community of Sri Lanka
Authors: Nonis P. A.Vimukthinie N.
Published: November 2024

Religious education, religion and philosophy, and spirituality in individuals and families are current and pertinent to Sri Lanka today. The topic will discuss the religious faith of the Dutch Burgher community in Sri Lanka. It will investigate whether Dutch Burghers’ have been impacted by Christianity. The objective of the study is to ascertain whether moral, Christian, and social values, crucial for the development of an individual's spiritual life or personality, are derived from religious faith and spirituality, which are associated with personality formation. Carl Muller’s trilogy- The Jam Fruit Tree, Yakada Yaka and Once Upon A Tender Time a rigorous account of the Burgher community, will be used to analyze this in light of Sri Lankan fiction. The trilogy will be textually evaluated as part of the methodology by applying post-colonial and psychoanalytic theories. It will also offer a sociological examination of the Dutch Burgher community in Sri Lanka. The study aims to explore whether religion has influenced the development of the faith of the Dutch Burgher population in Sri Lanka and whether the Catholic environment Dutch families, the Catholic environment, and the clergy have contributed to the creation of responsible, socially acceptable individuals. According to the study, citizens engage in religious activities on various days, months, and seasons as part of their routine. Consequently, religion has devolved into something shallow. It will look into whether Dutch Burghers are spiritually and religiously hybrid, as Bhabha claims, or if they are victims of modernism and are not actual Christians. The study concludes with a specific reference to Carl Muller’s trilogy Christianity had no bearing on the lives of Sri Lanka's Dutch Burgher community or the formation or development of any faith.

Impossible ‘qui pro quo’: Fedor Dostoevsky and Zinaida Gippius (the short story “Ivan Ivanovich and the Devil”)
Authors: Dzhamalova Iana Ia.
Published: November 2024

This paper analyses the operation of the ‘qui pro quo’ principle in Zinaida Gippius's sto­ry “Ivan Ivanovich and the Devil.” Rooted in a comedic literary device based on misunder­standing and confusion, the ‘qui pro quo principle’ was identified by Rita Kleyman as a key element in the poetics of Fedor Dostoevsky's works, particularly in his novel “The Brothers Karamazov”. Scholars have frequently noted the connection between Gippius's story and Dostoevsky’s novel. However, the presence of another link — the ‘qui pro quo principle’ — has yet to be explored in Gippius's text. The analysis demonstrates that the principle mani­fests through the symbolic pairing of the main characters and is closely tied to the theme of temptation. The use of the ‘qui pro quo’ principle in the story results in an inverted portrayal of the motif of temptation. It is argued that one of the defining characteristics of Gippius's imagery — the contradictory nature of the protagonists — is shaped by this principle. The ‘qui pro quo’ is a constant feature of Dostoevsky's works and is reinterpreted by Gippius. The principle is an additional thread linking 19th-century Russian classical literature with Rus­sian modernist literature.
Languages of unfolding hereditary information in еmbryogenesis: linguo-semiotic analogues and analogies
Authors: Spirov Alexander V.
Published: November 2024

It is known that almost all hereditary information about the innumerable characteristics of a multicellular organism, including the human body, is encoded in a certain way in the nucleus of a fertilized egg. The principles of the unfolding of genetic information in the development of a multicellular embryo have long attracted the attention of both biologists and representatives of various sciences. While molecular biologists concentrate on the infor­ma­tional and cybernetic aspects of the storage and transmission of genetic information, the au­thors of biosemiotic studies insist on the specificity of biological signs in these processes and on the special nature of biological texts. We focused on the information aspects of these pro­cesses and, in order to demonstrate the analogies between them and with linguistic-semiotic concepts, we describe the problems of complexity and hierarchy of genetic mechanisms for the implementation of genetic information in embryogenesis, as it is seen in systems biology.
On (k,3)-arcs derived by Ceva configurations in PG(2,5)
Authors: Altıntaş Kahriman Elif , Bayar Ayşe
Published: November 2024

In this study, we investigate complete (k,2)-arcs and (k,3)-arcs derived from a Ceva configuration in the projective plane of order five by implementing an algorithm in C#. Our results indicate the existence of a complete (6,2)-arc that has no points in common with the (7,3)-arc formed by the Ceva configuration. Furthermore, we identify eight different complete (10,3)-arcs that include a Ceva configuration. Additionally, we explore cyclic order Ceva configurations, denoted as C_1,C_2,C_3, and C_4, all of which have a common center. The vertices of each configuration C_i are on the sides of the preceding configuration C_(i-1), with i ranging from 2 to 4. We determine different thirty-two complete (10,3)-arcs and different two complete (6,2)-arcs by constructing cyclic order Ceva configurations C_1,C_2,C_3,C_4 with a common center in PG(2,5).
Management of Ankylosed Teeth with Fixed Space Regainer: Case Reports
Authors: Kim Jihyun , Han Jieun , Kim Gimin , Lee Jaesik
Published: November 2024

Ankylosis, the abnormal fusion of root cementum and surrounding bone, commonly affects primary molars, leading to space loss and infraocclusion. This often results in mesial tipping of the adjacent permanent molar, necessitating orthodontic intervention to regain space, upright the molar, and establish proper occlusion. In mixed dentitions, patient compliance and proper appliance design are critical, as inappropriate appliances can cause root resorption and undesirable tooth movements. This case report presents a three-step treatment approach for managing ankylosis using a novel fixed appliance that uses the ankylosed tooth as skeletal anchorage. The process includes 1) space regaining, 2) extraction of the ankylosed tooth, and 3) space maintenance for the successor tooth’s eruption. The fixed appliance, comprising a minitube, double-helical spring, free arm, and resin ball, was used to regain space and facilitate the eruption of the permanent successor by correcting the inclination of the adjacent first permanent molar. Two patients with mixed dentitions were treated successfully, achieving space regaining and molar uprighting without anchorage loss. This three-step treatment is simple, effective, and produces desirable outcomes in a short time, making it a promising alternative for pediatric patients with ankylosis, space loss, and mesial inclination of adjacent teeth. The novel appliance emphasizes the importance of stable and biocompatible anchorage in pediatric dentistry.
Relation- and task-oriented roles as antecedents of ethical leadership: Examining synergistic effects
Authors: Rahaman H. M. Saidur
Published: November 2024

A growing body of literature demonstrates that ethical leadership has positive effects on employees’ work outcomes. Ethical leadership upholds the importance of “normatively appropriate conduct through personal actions and interpersonal relationships” (Brown et al., 2005, p. 120; doi:10.1016/j.obhdp.2005.03.002). However, extant empirical research does not answer the question- of how ethical leaders balance their relation maintenance (i.e., relationship-oriented role) and performance maintenance (i.e., task-oriented role) behaviors with their employees to be perceived as ethical leaders. In the present paper, drawing upon the propositions informed by opposing domains theory and related research, I theorize that leaders’ relationship-oriented and task-oriented roles create synergistic effects that predict their employees’ perceptions of ethical leadership. Results across two studies (an experiment and a correlational study involving samples from two different cultures) convergently confirmed the hypothesized relationships. I conclude by discussing several key theoretical and practical implications of these findings.
Assessing Cybersecurity Threats To Tanzania's Government E-Payment Systems And Their Impact On National Security
Authors: Semlambo Adam , Stanslaus Shalua Nasania
Published: November 2024

This research delves into the cybersecurity ecosystem of Tanzania, concentrating on the threats and vulnerabilities inherent in the government's electronic payment gateway and their ramifications for national security. Utilising a descriptive research methodology, the study surveyed 1,420 officials from different departments within the Tanzania Ministry of Finance and Planning. It narrowed them down to a sample of 200 through purposive and convenience sampling techniques. Data collection was executed via structured questionnaires and in-depth interviews, with analysis conducted using both quantitative (SPSS for inferential statistics) and qualitative (content analysis) methodologies. The findings highlight a pronounced deficiency in cyber literacy among staff, rendering them more vulnerable to cyber-attacks and resulting in significant financial losses. The research identifies critical weaknesses within the government's e-payment systems that pose substantial risks to national security. The study advocates for a multifaceted strategy to address these issues, including incorporating cyber literacy into educational curricula, enhancing national cybercrime management, and reinforcing government cyber networks with advanced security technologies. Furthermore, the study underscores the urgent need for a comprehensive cybersecurity policy. Implementing such a policy is pivotal to ensuring a secure digital environment that supports national security and economic stability, forming the cornerstone of the proposed multifaceted strategy.

Trong nghiên cứu này, chúng tôi sử dụng phương pháp điện hóa như một kỹ thuật đơn giản, đơn bước để chế tạo vật liệu nano tổ hợp Fe2O3/graphen. Quá trình phóng điện được thực hiện đồng thời với quá trình kết tủa để bóc tách graphen và đóng vai trò nhân tố kết hợp graphen với các hạt nano Fe2O3. Các phép đo quang phổ nhiễu xạ tia X (XRD), kính hiển vi điện tử quét (SEM), phép đo xác định diện tích bề mặt (BET),… đã được thực hiện để xác định đặc trưng của mẫu. Điện dung của mẫu xác định thông qua các phép đo quét thế tuần hoàn (CV), phóng/nạp (GCD) thể hiện độ ổn định tốt. Sự kết hợp graphen với các hạt nano ô-xít sắt trong mẫu tổ hợp làm tăng đáng kể điện dung riêng của các điện cực tổ hợp so với khi không có graphen (gấp ~ 1,5 lần).
