Authors: Baingana Matt
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Purpose: The general purpose of this study was to evaluate food texture perception and its influence on consumer preferences.
Methodology: The study adopted a desktop research methodology. Desk research refers to secondary data or that which can be collected without fieldwork. Desk research is basically involved in collecting data from existing resources hence it is often considered a low cost technique as compared to field research, as the main cost is involved in executive’s time, telephone charges and directories. Thus, the study relied on already published studies, reports and statistics. This secondary data was easily accessed through the online journals and library.
Findings: The findings reveal that there exists a contextual and methodological gap relating to food texture perception and its influence on consumer preferences. Preliminary empirical review revealed that that food texture plays a pivotal role in shaping consumer preferences and purchase decisions across various product categories. Through a review of empirical studies, it was found that texture preferences are influenced by sensory experiences, cultural norms, and individual differences. Cross-cultural variability in texture preferences was noted among Western, Asian, and Middle Eastern populations, highlighting the importance of considering cultural factors in product development. Furthermore, texture was found to elicit emotional responses during eating, with certain textures evoking positive emotions while others elicited negative ones. The practical implications of texture research were underscored, emphasizing its relevance for food manufacturers, marketers, and policymakers in developing products that align with consumer expectations and promoting healthier food choices.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The Sensory-Specific Satiety theory, Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM) and Schema theory may be used in anchoring future studies on food texture perception and its influence on consumer preferences. The study provided recommendations that contributed to theory, practice, and policy in the field of food science and consumer behavior. The study suggested further exploration of texture perception mechanisms, tailored product development strategies based on sensory evaluations, and sensory marketing approaches emphasizing texture cues. Additionally, it recommended integrating sensory considerations into food regulations, promoting consumer education on texture-related labeling, and investing in sensory research and innovation. These recommendations aimed to enhance understanding of texture perception, improve product development and marketing strategies, and inform policy initiatives to meet consumer preferences effectively.

Published: April 2024

The study of learning engagement has been fruitful since it entered the vision of Chinese scholars at the end of the 20th century. Taking 2, 389 and 199 valid citing documents from CNKI and CSSCI Database respectively, and the corresponding 4039 cited documents from the latter as the analyzed samples, and comprehensively using bibliometric method and traditional bibliographic method, this paper describes and presents a four-dimensional knowledge picture containing the accumulation history of literature on learning input research in China, main research teams, knowledge base and hot topics of learning engagement research in China, and refines local characteristics based on this. It is found that: (1) Chinese learning engagement research has generated five attributes in its process of development: the process of document accumulation has gone through two stages of “budding period and growth period”; the main research team is composed of scholars from comprehensive universities and normal colleges and universities; the research content has formed the distribution of “multi-action mechanism exploration, less theoretical concept construction”; the research method shows a decreasing law of “more quantitative research, less qualitative research”; research objects presents the characteristics of “focusing on higher education and running through the three stages of primary education, secondary education and higher education”. (2) Chinese learning engagement research has obtained many heterogeneous findings in the comparison: mainly including the development of tools that are closer to Chinese educational practice and the findings that are more in line with the experience of Chinese learners.
The Study of Group Characteristics of the Scholars of “virtuous and outspoken” in the Third Year of Yuanhe
Authors:   Communication University of China, TAO Chenghao
Published: April 2024

In the third year of Yuanhe of Emperor Xianzong of the Tang Dynasty, eleven scholars including Niu Shengru, Huangfu Chik, Li Zongmin, Li Zhengfeng, Xu Xi, Jia Jin, Wang Qi, Guo Qiu, Yao Gun, Yu Wei, and Ji Hongzong were admitted to the examination of the “virtuous and outspoken”. From the perspective of history and literature, eleven scholars in that year were placed at the core and studied, which in essence belonged to a branch of Mr. Fu Xuancong's research paradigm of “Imperial Examination and Literature”. The imperial examination not only provided these scholars with opportunities to enter the imperial court, but also continued to influence their political life and literary creation. Influenced by the subjects, most of them served in the first half of their careers as officials who criticized and admonished, embodying the characteristics of “speaking out and remonstrating extremely”. Among them, some scholars participated in the party struggle, and some scholars intersected with a generation of famous minister Pei Du. The quality of “speaking frankly and remonstrating extremely” accompanied their official career, and the connection with the dignitaries of the current dynasty influenced their career experience and became the intersection of their political activities. The life dominated by politics prompted them to pay more attention to political essays and words and things in their creation. Private words were mostly reflected in the poetry creation with chanting scenery and recording trivial matters as the main theme, and the poems given as a reward were also evidence of their intersection with literary celebrities such as Bai Juyi. , Similar official experiences and close literary experiences eventually constituted the group characteristics of these scholars.
LEARNING ARABIC VOCABULARY FROM THE QURAN TO FACILITATE EARLY ARABIC SPEAKING SKILLS AND MEMORIZING QURAN AT BAITURRAHMAN KINDERGARTEN IN MALANG CITY
Authors: Mufidah Zuhrotul
Published: April 2024

Learning Arabic can indeed be easily initiated from an early age by acquiring Arabic vocabulary from the commonly heard Quran. It has been proven that learning Arabic vocabulary from the Quran facilitates children in memorizing the Quran, as they memorize by envisioning the meanings of the Quranic vocabulary they are reciting. This serves as the rationale for researchers to investigate how Arabic language learning can be conducted by utilizing vocabulary from the Quran, aiming to ease students in both speaking Arabic and memorizing the Quran. Consequently, students become accustomed to listening to Arabic vocabulary and understanding its meanings through presented images without initially mentioning their meanings. With this direct method, students find it easier to recall the vocabulary provided. This research adopts a qualitative descriptive method and yields insightful findings that are highly beneficial to Quranic institutions as considerations for incorporating Arabic language learning before Quran memorization

Authors: Imoh-Ita Imoh
Published: April 2024

Quantitative approach is central to current discussions in management science research. For some, management science research is less quantitative. For others, management science research adopts quantitative approaches. Faced with this major research contention, and while there is now a considerable and diverse scholarship on quantitative research methods, including questions of data collection, and analysis, focusing on gathering numerical data and generalizing it across group of people or to explain a particular phenomenon, the practical implications or application of quantitative approaches in management science are still contested as little is known among scholars about the specific empirical or quantitative approaches in management science. The objective of this study is to to fill this gap. The study discusses and clarifies quantitative approaches in management science research. It builds on content analysis methodology and reviews quantitative method, which emphasizes objective measurement including statistical, mathematical, or numerical analysis of data collected through polls, questionnaires, and surveys, or by computational techniques. Findings among others, show that management science adopts quantitative approach. In the alternative, the paper contributes to the understanding of quantitative approach by addressing the relationship between management science and quantitative approaches, and also with policy makers and researchers involved in the debates about the role of quantitative research in management science for future research. Conclusion shows how the study will help better understand the importance of quantitative management science for researchers and policymakers.

Published: April 2024

Urgent carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is beneficial in patients with non-disabling stroke or transient ischemic attack and significant ipsilateral carotid artery stenosis. It is recommended to be performed within 2-4 weeks of the event; however, its safety when done within 48 hours is still under investigation with potential risks of recurrent ipsilateral stroke and death being reported. This case highlights that urgent CEA done within 48 hours can result in significant neurological improvement. NICE advises within 48 hours of diagnosis and <7 days of radiological imaging while some large studies- especially a Swedish study of >2000 patients concluded an increased risk of stroke and death when performed within 48 hours. Evidence is still developing. In selected cases, this timely intervention can be the standard of care in the Caribbean setting in keeping with international best practice.

Implementing Quantum Resistant Algorithm in Blockchain-Based Applications
Authors: Dr. Sonali Ridhorkar  , Mr. Setu Sagar Mishra
Published: April 2024

With quantum computing evolving very fast as we speak, the security and integrity of blockchain-based applications will become the most crucial aspect. A proposal is raised to use blockchain technology as a platform for writing and probating ‘wills’. Blockchain technology in drafting and probating wills makes them safe from manipulations, highly secure, and transparent. It also dramatically decreases the time required without catering for the challenges created by the current system. [9] This paper presents a new method for will transfer and inheritance management by implementing quantum-resistant algorithms in the security architecture of a blockchain decentralized application (DApp). The system uses IPFS Network for data storage and quantum-safe algorithms as retrieval and sending algorithms. The system includes Quantum-Resistant Dilithium Signatures and Merkle trees as the fundamental components for safeguarding the transfers of assets and claims for inheritance. Quantum-Resistant Dilithium Signatures offer an unbreakable shield against quantum attacks that are expected to happen, which in turn safeguards the privacy and authenticity of transactions. While Merkle trees are responsible for the organization of inheritance claims in an effective and tamper-proof manner, the introduced system incorporates smart contracts to address the execution of an inheritance case, adding more security and automation to the asset distribution process. The system ensures a robust security framework by integrating quantum-resistant algorithms at the very core of the blockchain DApp for instance, retrieval and sending. This research is of great significance to blockchain technology which is the emerging technology of the future because it addresses the existing threat of quantum computing by showing the feasibility of using quantum-resistant algorithms in practical applications. As established by the findings, besides Quantum-Resistant Dilithium Signatures and Merkle trees, the systems of asset transfers and inheritance management within blockchain networks are enhanced in terms of safety and reliability. Hence, paving the road to the creation of more secure and trustworthy digital asset management systems.

Published: April 2024

This paper introduces a novel Digitalized Voting System designed to address the shortcomings of current voting methods employed in India. With a focus on enhancing transparency and trust in the electoral process, the system aims to overcome challenges present in both traditional and digital voting systems, including instances of mishaps and injustice. Leveraging blockchain technology, the proposed system seeks to ensure fair elections and minimise occurrences of injustice. While electronic voting has been introduced as a solution to paper-based voting, it has encountered obstacles primarily related to security and privacy concerns. To address these issues, our framework emphasises the effectiveness of various components such as the polling process, hashing algorithms, contract and block creation, data accumulation, and result declaration.Utilising an adjustable blockchain method, the system aims to provide a robust solution to the security and data management challenges inherent in blockchain technology. By incorporating elements such as blockchain, hashing algorithms, block creation, OTP verification, and Ethereum, our approach endeavours to digitalize the voting process comprehensively. This paper contributes to the advancement of electoral integrity by presenting an improved manifestation of electronic voting, paving the way for more transparent and secure elections

Published: April 2024

Esta comunicación breve evidencia la fragmentación boscosa en el Parque Nacional Santa Fé, Provincia de Veraguas, Panamá 2024. Este fenómeno es preocupante, ya que afecta la biodiversidad y el equilibrio ecológico de esta área protegida. Se define como la división de los bosques en fragmentos más pequeños debido a actividades humanas como la deforestación, la expansión agrícola y la urbanización.
La metodología utilizada consiste en el uso de tecnologías robóticas avanzadas (VANT) en un segmento del parque Nacional Santa Fé, provincia de Veraguas, Panamá. Al ubicar las zonas que se encuentran muy cercanas a los bosques del parque se procedió a elevar un dron
equipado con cámara de 12 megapíxeles (mp) a una altura que pudiera evidenciar fotográficamente los impactos ocasionados por la deforestación. Los drones equipados con cámaras transmiten datos visuales en tiempo real al piloto, lo que resulta fundamental para inspeccionar el estado del sitio y superar las limitaciones de visualización típicas de los métodos tradicionales en el monitoreo de un lugar.
El análisis de las imágenes se dio después de analizar sesenta y tres (63) fotografías que evidencian el impacto negativo de la deforestación que ocasiona la fragmentación boscosa, causando efectos adversos las especies de flora y fauna que dependen de un hábitat continuo y extenso para sobrevivir. Con este estudio se pretende alertar a las entidades que tienen que ver con la protección de estas áreas y de esa forma darle sostenibilidad a ambiental a esta área que es muy importante por ser fuente recursos hídricos.

Authors: González Varas Ignacio
Published: April 2024

En las investigaciones desarrolladas en el área de Composición Arquitectónica de la Escuela de Arquitectura de Toledo hemos tratado distintos temas vinculados con el patrimonio construido y el paisaje urbano. Situados en este ámbito de investigación, durante los últimos años nos hemos ocupado de un sistema patrimonial complejo como es el formado por los conventos urbanos de la ciudad de Toledo. Estos conjuntos arquitectónicos que llegaron a sumar algo más de medio centenar en la ciudad y de los que actualmente subsisten los edificios de una treintena de ellos, han contribuido de modo decisivo a la formación de laestructura urbana de Toledo así como a la caracterización de su prevalente imagen como ciudad conventual. Todos estos complejos arquitectónicos asumen un carácter de microciudades aisladas y autosuficientes y se articulan en torno a una pieza fundamental como es el claustro conventual. Nuestra investigación, sin obviar las líneas habituales de clasificación tipológica, morfológica y estilística de los claustros conventuales, presenta la originalidad de centrarse en el análisis del papel desempeñado por el claustro conventual en un doble sentido: en primer lugar, como elemento arquitectónico fundamental para entender la estructura, carácter y composición de los conventos de Toledo y en segundo lugar, en cuanto al papel ejercido por el claustro y/o patio conventual para otorgar orden y composición a la ciudad hasta el punto de erigirse el claustro en uno de los elementos más característicos del patrimonio cultural del conjunto histórico de Toledo.

Level of glial cell derived neurotrophic factor in the blood plasma of rheumatoid arthritis patients and its relationship
with alexithymia
Authors: Shalkovskyi Yevhenii , Stanislavchuk Mykola
Published: April 2024

Objectives

Glial cell derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) has an important role in the pathogenetic mechanisms and clinical manifestations of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Alexithymia is associated with a severe clinical course and worse prognosis, while the relationship between alexithymia and GDNF in RA patients has not been investigated before. The aims of the study were to investigate the GDNF level in blood plasma in RA patients depending on the presence of alexithymia and to evaluate the relationship of GDNF level with clinical manifestation and quality of life.

Material and methods

Fifteen men and 73 women with RA were examined using the Disease Activity Score with 28-joint count (DAS28) with erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) index, the Simple Disease Activity Index (SDAI), the Rheumatoid Arthritis Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI), the Visual Analogue Scale (according to the assessment of the patient – VAS-P and the assessment of the doctor – VAS-D), the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ), the Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS-20), the Disability Rating Index (DRI) and SF-36 indexes. Glial cell derived neurotrophic factor level in the blood plasma was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).

Results

Forty percent of RA patients had alexithymia. Glial cell derived neurotrophic factor level in the examined patients was 3.73 ±2.59 pg/ml, in patients with alexithymia 4.08 ±2.87 pg/ml, without alexithymia 3.48 ±2.37 pg/ml (p = 0.295). Patients with alexithymia had a higher erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and index scores than patients without alexithymia – ESR: 34.29 ±14.22 vs. 22.73 ±12.03 mm/h (p = 0.017), DAS28: 6.53 ±0.66 vs. 6.09 ±0.55 (p = 0.017), VAS-D: 7.19 ±0.81 vs. 6.53 ±0.83 (p = 0.020), HAQ: 1.78 ±0.58 vs. 1.51 ±0.54 (p = 0.040). Also they had worse SF-36 indicators – physical functioning: 39.52 ±13.78 vs. 51.00 ±14.90 (p = 0.019), role functioning due to physical condition: 30.95 ±20.77 vs. 46.67 ±24.76 (p = 0.041), physical component of health: 31.47 ±11.44 vs. 41.61 ±15.88 (p = 0.028). In patients with alexithymia, a correlation was found between the GDNF level and severity of pain according to VAS-P: rS = 0.338, p = 0.044, and VAS-D: rS = 0.446, p = 0.006.

Conclusions

Alexithymia was found in 40% of RA patients. Rheumatoid arthritis patients with alexithymia had a nonsignificantly higher GDNF level compared to patients without alexithymia. In RA patients with alexithymia, an association of GDNF level in the blood plasma with RA activity, loss of functional capacity and reduced quality of life was established. Alexithymia in RA patients is an important factor in the clinical manifestation of RA and modification of the pathophysiological role of GDNF.

hapšenju 1945. godine. Autor ukazuje da njegov poslijeratni angažman, u
njegovim temeljnim idejnim zasadama,
ne predstavlja radikalan raskid s težnjama i pogledima koje je zastupao u tridesetim i četrdesetim godinama 20. stoljeća, već radije kontinuitet napora da
se sagleda i promisli položaj i perspektiva islama i muslimana u savremenom
svijetu.

Эксплуатация металлических конструкций в агрессивной среде вызывает коррозию металла, что характерно для промышленных предприятий. Неправильная эксплуатация несущих конструкций покрытия корпуса сгущения фильтровально-сушильного отделения вызвала обрушение металлической фермы. Поверочный расчет фермы покрытия в конструирующей системе ЛИР-СТК программы «Лира-САПР» на расчетные сочетания усилий показал, что несущая способность конструктивных элементов ферм не обеспечена. Причиной обрушения фермы, расположенной по оси 13, А, является стопроцентная коррозия металла, вызванная агрессивной средой, а также отклонение от проекта при монтаже фермы и нагружение нагрузкой, не предусмотренной по проекту. В связи с выявленными дефектами и повреждениями конструкций покрытия предложены рекомендации по их восстановлению.

Бағалы қағаздар (БҚ) нарығында сауда-саттық сессиясының (ССС) ойын үлгісі ұсынылады. ССС-дағы процестің басқарылуын ойын тәсілі тұрғысынан сипаттау орынды екендігі көрсетілген. Бұл мәселені бисызықтық дифференциалдық сапа ойынына негізделген шешімді қолдану арқылы шешу ұсынылады. Бисызықты дифференциалды ойындарды қолдану бағалы қағаздарды сатып алу-сатуды басқару процесінің ажырамас бөлігі болып табылатын қаржылық ресурстарды бөлу тәртібін қолданумен байланысты. Мұндай дифференциалдық ойындар үшін бірінші тура әдіс те, Л.С. Понтрягиннің альтернативті интеграл әдісі де қолданылмайды, өйткені мұнда Коши формуласы қолданылмайды. Сонымен қатар, Н.Н. Красовский мектебінің әдістері де қолданылмайды, атап айтқанда, "кішкентай ойындар" мәнінің болғанына қарамастан тұрақты көпірлер салу әдісі. Сондықтан мақалада дискретті-жуықтау әдісі қолданылды, бұл берілген қиындықтарды жеңуге және аналитикалық шешімді нақты түрде табуға мүмкіндік берді. Жоғарыда айтылғандардан басқа, қарастырылып отырған мәселенің жаңалығы бағалы қағаздарды сатып алу-сатуды басқару процедурасының динамикасын сипаттау және осы процедураны үздіксіз уақыт ішінде қарастыру болып табылады, бұл қарастырылып жатқан процедурада бағалы қағаздарды сапалы бағалауға мүмкіндік береді. Инвесторлардың шешім қабылдауында маңызды болып табылатын бұқа және аю трендтері (нарығы) аймақтары табылды. Жұмыста алынған нәтижелер БҚ-ды инвестициялық нарықтағы баға тұрақсыздығы жағдайларын болдырмау үшін пайдалы болуы мүмкін. Олар БҚ-ны сатып алу және сату процестерін бақылайтын бөлімшелердің тиімді жұмысына ықпал ете алады. Мақаланың нәтижелері ірі банк ойыншылары деңгейінде БҚ-ны инвестициялау нарығында баға тұрақтылығын сақтау бақылау шараларын таңдау бойынша ұсыныстарды әзірлеуге ықпал етеді, сондай-ақ инвесторлар БҚ-ды сатып алу-сатуды басқарудың сындарлы стратегиясын іздеген кезде шешім қабылдауды қолдаудың компьютерлік жүйелерінде қолданылуы мүмкін. MatLab имитациялық модельдеу ортасында жасалған есептеу экспериментінің нәтижелері келтірілген.

В статье рассматривается задача управления плоским трехзвенным мани- пулятором с тремя степенями свободы, в которой требуется провести рабочий инструмент робота-манипулятора по заданной траектории (по прямой в плоскости), избежав столкновения звеньев с препятствием цилиндрической формы, то есть так, чтобы звенья не входили в об- ласть сечения цилиндра плоскостью траектории. Задача моделирования управления нелиней- ным объектом решена с применением методов Шютца для реализации модельно-прогностичес- кого управления и кинематического управления на конечном горизонте, а также с применением мгновенной инверсной кинематики Накамуры. Результаты моделирования показали хорошие ре- зультаты применения методов модельно-прогностического управления планарным трех- звенным роботом-манипулятором с точки зрения быстродействия и обхода препятствий.
