Association between aerobic fitness and the functional connectome in patients with schizophrenia
Authors: Roell Lukas
Published: December 2021

Background: Schizophrenia is accompanied by widespread alterations in static functional connectivity associated with symptom severity and cognitive deficits. Improvements in aerobic fitness have been demonstrated to ameliorate symptomatology and cognition in people with schizophrenia, but the intermediary role of macroscale connectivity patterns remains unknown.Objective: Therefore, we aim to explore the relation between aerobic fitness and the functional connectome in individuals with schizophrenia. Further, we investigate clinical and cognitive relevance of the identified fitness-connectivity links.Methods: Patients diagnosed with schizophrenia were included in this cross-sectional resting-state fMRI analysis. Multilevel Bayesian partial correlations between aerobic fitness and functional connections across the whole brain as well as between static functional connectivity patterns and clinical and cognitive outcome were performed. Preliminary causal inferences were enabled based on a mediation analysis. Results: Static functional connectivity between the subcortical nuclei and the cerebellum as well as between temporal seeds mediated the attenuating relation between aerobic fitness and total symptom severity. Functional connections between cerebellar seeds affected the positive link between aerobic fitness and global cognition, while the functional interplay between central and limbic seeds drove the beneficial association between aerobic fitness and emotion recognition.Conclusion: The current study provides first insights into the interactions between aerobic fitness, the functional connectome and clinical and cognitive outcome in people with schizophrenia, but causal interpretations are preliminary. Further interventional aerobic exercise studies are needed in order to replicate the current findings and to enable conclusive causal inferences.

In a democracy, a general election is a platform for citizens to use their political rights. However, not all citizens use it well, leading to an imperfect voting participation level. This situation motivates this study to exist. With this intention, this paper examines and analyzes the participation to vote decision in the party general election in 2019 based on gender and ages. Backing up this goal, we use the people in three regencies in West Java: Subang, Majalengka, and Sumedang, as the population. Because of these areas, we utilize multistage random sampling to take 600 people as the samples. As the statistical checking, we use the Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal-Wallis to test the hypotheses based on the categorical responses. After investigating the answers through the statistical test and discussing their outputs, we deduce that the participation of females is lower than that of males, demonstrating the gender gap. Also, the younger the participants, the higher involvement to vote.

Published: December 2021

The tutorial videos contain an explanation of a learning material taught to students. The use of tutorial videos is common during the COVID-19 pandemic. This situation makes the teachers change the learning model into a video conferences or tutorial videos. However, the use of tutorial videos is often accompanied by opening other applications in parallel causing pop-up notifications to appear. The pop-up notification makes students not focus on the material explained in the tutorial videos. This raises the question of whether it will affect the learning process in understanding the learning material. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the influence of pop-up notifications on tutorial videos. Eye movements of all participants (N = 50) were recorded when viewing tutorial videos on various operating systems with or without the pop-up notification. Based on the results, after being shown a tutorial videos with a pop-up notification, participants paid attention to the pop-up notification. However, there were no significant differences in learning outcomes of students after viewing tutorial videos with or without pop-up notification.

Authors: Yi Sangwha
Published: December 2021

In the general theory of relativity the Rindler coordinate theory has been extended to the Rindler coordinate theory of accelerated observer that has already some initial velocity. In this paper, we present this extended theory that uses the tetrad as the new method, and discover the new inverse-coordinate transformation. Specially, if, a0 < 0 , this theory treats the observer with the initial velocity that does slowdown by the constant negative acceleration in the Rindler’s time-space. We consider the light’s Doppler Effect in the accelerated system as well as the decelerated system.

Published: December 2021

Technical Education in Community School (TECS) is considered pertinent for the socio-economic transformation, particularly in a developing country like Nepal. Instructors of these schools are the key persons who transform curriculum into practice, however, their profession in their perspectives was hardly studied. With this consideration, this study was carried out to understand the experience of TECS instructors on their teaching profession. To attain this research objective, four instructors from the Diploma in Civil Engineering program of two TECSs were purposively selected, and a narrative inquiry approach was utilized to study the cases in-depth. The result showed that the instructors were interested in teaching in TECS; however, they were not ready to go to TECSs of remote villages. For them, the village settings lacked source for extra earning opportunities and career growth prospects. They were motivated to teach in Diploma in Civil Engineering as they could apply their prior knowledge and skills. At the same time, theoretical knowledge gained from their teaching in TECSs had been helpful for their engineering profession as well.

Published: December 2021

Integration of mobile technologies into training and instruction for learning facilitation is important these days. It is because the users of the mobile devices are increasing as enablers of the learning opportunity anywhere all the times. In addition, learners like to get information, learning resources and activities on their palms via mobile devices. In this context, this paper reports lessons from action research about the use of customized android mobile application at a teacher education institution in Nepal. The research started with the purpose of promoting the use of Mobile App for e-learning that contributes to improving access to e-learning resources and instant communication for course activities. Online survey, informal interaction and interview were used to collect data. Activity theory has been influential to analyse the use of Mobile App for the learning facilitation. The research shows that the course facilitators rarely used Mobile App, instead they liked using web browsers in their large computer screen. However, students used the Mobile App and they wanted the updated version with user-friendly interface. Main lesson from the research is that the roles of institution and facilitators are important to create and provide mobile friendly options of learning facilitation where students themselves can explore in the internet, learn, and use available applications and tools required for their learning. Training institutions can introduce mobile application to bring about a change in the ways of training methods and pedagogical practices with technological interventions. Trainers can consider mobile apps for techno-friendly instructional experiences. Also, learners can access mobile apps for training resources and other learning to enhance their knowledge and skill.

Published: December 2021

Even though Nepal has a huge hydropower capacity, it has not been able to fully exploit this vast resource for economic growth. Despite having access to electricity, the country's power sector is underperforming, with supply shortages, reliability issues, and restricted access. Nepal has been able to produce about three percent of the economic viability and less than two percent of the total potentiality. If the investment priority is made in energy sector, it contributes sufficiently to the national economy. Still there is energy deficit in Nepal basically in dry season due to lower production and high demand.

Post-Earthquake Reconstruction in Nepal: Conformance the Assumptions, Actions, and Achievements
Authors: Bhattarai Raj Kumar
Published: December 2021

Post-earthquake reconstruction works is a consequential mission. The principal premises of the mission are the goal of speedily rebuilding, well-structured plans, extensive local resources mobilization, and commissioning leadership in the reconstruction and rehabilitation works. Nepal’s pluralistic character, political upheavals, and shortcoming of resources are real-time challenges to mission accomplishment. Congruence of the assumptions, actions, and achievements concerning physical, socio-psychological, cultural, and financial dimensions of vulnerabilities is of foremost significance because the social acceptance and/or rejection is a critical determinant of the mission accomplishment. This study aims to determine the congruence level of assumptions, actions, and accomplishments concerning the managerial process activities of the National Reconstruction Authority, which are addressing the concerns of reconstruction work, national interest, and social justice. An exploration on the Authority’s attention to the reciprocal eco-cultural resiliency measures has also been made to find a balance among the concerns. The study begins with reviewing the Acts, policies, directives, standards, and working procedures concerning the reconstruction works. The Authority’s annual reports and decisions of the Appellate Committee are taken as the sources of information. A matrix form of NRA’s process activities, key assumptions, major actions, and notable accomplishments is prepared for analysis. Matchmaking of the assumptions with the actions and achievements has been made, and the level of their congruence assessed. The level of congruence among the assumptions, actions, and achievements concerning the consequential mission is found unsatisfactory. There is an absence of process activities concerning the reciprocal eco-cultural resiliency, national interest, and social justice. Partially adapted the process activities and corresponding assumptions, actions, and achievements seems insufficient to achieve the envisioned transformation in the disaster-affected districts. Deeply rooted self interest of the people and institutions associated with the consequential mission stands as a major challenge in the process of reconstruction.

Authors: Sarafi Ichsan , Nafisah Laila , Muhsin Ahmad
Published: December 2021

The development of information technology has become a necessity for every company, one of which is the optimization of inventory planning. The joint warehouse owned by the Chickenpedia Restaurant which has to supply various types of raw materials to the three restaurant branches often experiences stock outs and has to make emergency orders resulting in losses. For this reason, it is necessary to control the inventory of raw materials in the shared warehouse so that stock outs can be overcome and losses that arise can be minimized. One of them is by using the Continuous Review method. By using this method, the optimal order quantity and reorder point will be obtained. The weakness is iterative calculation and monitoring of raw material stock manually. For this reason, it is necessary to support an information system to speed up and make it easier to calculate when to place an order and how many orders of raw materials to suppliers so as to reduce the occurrence of running out of raw materials. The Information System can also monitor the stock of raw materials every day in real time based on the number of incoming and outgoing goods that enter the application.

Authors: Pazarli Didem , Yücel Fatıma , Akçael Esin , Pirinçci Göktürk Şerife Şeyda
Published: December 2021

Pancreatitis-associated protein (PAP) is a pancreatic stress protein that is not produced in a healthy pancreas but is highly synthesized in pancreatic acinar cells in response to acute and chronic pancreatitis, hypoxia, toxins, diabetes, lipopolysaccharides hypotransferrinemia and organ transplantation. Changes in the PAP levels in serum are an important biological marker in the early stage of pancreatic diseases. In this study, the recombinant human PAP protein, which has the potential to be used as a diagnostic marker and as research material in proliferation, apoptosis, cell migration, cell invasion, and immunoassay studies, was expressed efficiently under the control of the AOX1 gene promoter in the Komagataella phaffii (Pichia pastoris) (K. phaffii) X33 strain. We describe the conditions required for the efficient production of PAP protein by methanol induction and its use without purification. The produced unpurified protein was tested in sandwich ELISA and showed consistent results with the commercial product. These results are encouraging that the protein produced can be used as a biomarker standard in ELISA tests without the cost and labor of purification.

Published: December 2021

Import agrarian products is a prerequisite for meeting the demand of national consumers, especially taking into account various tastes and significant comparative advantages in the production of goods at the domestic and foreign markets. Although historical and modern scientific and practical approaches to the importance of import supplies for certain countries and industries vary both negatively and positively. The purpose of the research. The main purpose of the study is to systematize import threats, to coordinate the anti-crisis measures and to form the strategic approaches, which minimize the negative impact of import on the national agrarian business. Methodology. In the scientific research methods of comparison, synthesis and synthesis were used, as well as historical and axiomatic methods. Results. In the paper were analyzed the current trends of purchasing the foreign agrarian products and the functioning of domestic agricultural formations on the basis of using the imported goods. It was determined that the key problems of the modern economy were high level of energy intensity of national production, low quality and technological characteristics of finished products, asymmetry of foreign economic relations, low level of competitiveness of many national nomenclature positions in the agrarian sector. Practical meaning. According to international experience it was founded that in Latin America import was oriented to the domestic market and in Asia – to the foreign market. Also it was recognized that Ukraine’s trading partners were more interested in exporting raw materials or products with high added value. Prospects for further research. According to the results of the conducted studies, determinants of the regulatory system of Ukraine in countering global imbalances were identified. A strategy for minimizing the impact of import threats on the activities of domestic agrarian units has been developed. It has suggested the regulation of the import substitution policy in the conditions of openness of the national economy and the liberalization of foreign trade relations; the market saturation with domestic and foreign food products with high quality, a wider range and an affordable price range in accordance with the requirements of the international economic environment.

Results. It has been found that the professional burnout of physicians has been a matter of concern for the government, professional medical associations, and the general public for physicians of various US specialties for a long time. Although burnout affects physicians of all disciplines, it has been discovered that, among family physicians, this phenomenon exceeds the average level, especially compared to the general economically active population of the United States. Two approaches to identifying and reducing the risk of occupational burnout in the United States have been identified and characterized: the first approach covers measures aimed directly at a physician, that is, a specific individual, and the second, involves measures aimed at an organization, that is, a medical institution. It has been found that American scientists have concluded that organizational measures are more effective, but the first approach should be applied as a first step in overcoming professional burnout. Practical meaning. The results of the research are applicable for further scientific exploration and practical problem solution of professional burnout of physicians, including family ones, in Ukraine. Prospects for further research. Methodology of surveys of physicians of various specialties on burnout, depression and professional satisfaction. Factors of professional burnout for family physicians in Ukraine.
