GRADUATION FROM HIGHER AND VOCATIONAL SCHOOL DOES NOT ALWAYS END WITH EMPLOYMENT
Authors: Zaira Gudushauri Zaira Gudushauri , Irine Tsiklauri Irine Tsiklauri
Published: October 2021

In the article - "Graduation from higher and vocational school does not always end with employment" – it is discussed the problem of youth unemployment and the reason for this is the incompatibility of the higher and vocational education system in Georgia with the requirements of the labor market.
Youth is dominant among the unemployed population of Georgia. They graduate from vocational schools or colleges but do not work according to their professions, it is proved by labor market research, as well as by 2017 survey of the Department of Vocational Education of the Ministry of Education and Science of Georgia, in their conclusion part it was mentioned 56.2 graduates in employment.
The authors of the article mention the demand-labor imbalance in the labor market as the first reason for youth unemployment, and one of the reasons for the lack of knowledge and skills, in the market among young people is the lack of state funding for education. With such small resources, higher and vocational schools find it difficult to hire highly qualified professional teachers, which obviously reduces the quality of teaching. Due to low funding, vocational and higher education institutions (especially in the private sector) make savings mainly on wages. An hourly salary of 5-10 GEL is considered as normal with them. Only the low-qualified teachers come to such payment. The authors consider that almost half of the graduates are unemployed precisely because of their low level of knowledge. The authors consider the test method of knowledge control as the second reason and believes that this method makes it impossible to assess the depth of knowledge of the student.
The article ends with a summarizing conclusion.
Key words: Employment; Youth unemployment; High education; Vocational education; Labor Market; Demand-supply in the labor market.
Innovation Process as One of the Key Factors in Anti-crisis Management
Authors: Tamar Dudauri Tamar Dudauri
Published: October 2021

The issues such as the role of the innovation process in the company's anti-crisis management are relevant and important for running a business, maintaining competitiveness and developing a company in times of crisis. Whereas in the context of the globalization of international markets, the system that fails to appreciate the role of innovation potentially faces a tendency to weaken its market position, to lose customers and to reduce its profitability. All this contribute to the emergence of a crisis situation and eventually leads to the collapse of the entire system. Thus, the development of innovative direction is one of the priority directions to reach a new level of development of the company.
Moreover, for the development of innovative management in our country, it is important to take the following key steps, such as: creating the infrastructure for scientific research institutions; Promoting investment in innovative enterprises; Improving the legal framework in this regard; Improving the system of tax benefits; Facilitating patent-licensing regulations to disseminate and implement innovations; Establishing a comprehensive risk insurance system in the country; Creating a mechanism for disseminating technological and other type of innovations, etc.
Innovative management plays a crucial role in anti-crisis management. During studying the anti-crisis management mechanism, we came to the conclusion that its main basis is the use of innovative forms, methods and techniques. Moreover, the development process does not end with more sophisticated technological decisions, but rather the innovative technology must necessarily go through all the stages of improvement in innovative structures. All these will become the basis for a complex anti-crisis policy that will facilitate the operation of the company in a modern business environment.

Rational Use of Land Resources – the Determining Factor of Country Food Security
Authors: Rusudan Pirtskhalava Rusudan Pirtskhalava
Published: October 2021

Food security is a significant part of the national security. Therefore, food security in the first place is a state duty to provide country population with food products in both ordinary conditions and extreme situation (without regard to the existence of either internal or external threat), at a level necessary for human active and healthy life. “Food security is people′s right to get access to the non-hazardous food products which are manufactured with the use of ecologically clean methods and comply with their cultural traditions. Also, it is their right to determine by themselves the directions of their agricultural and product system regardless of the interests of global corporations”.
The given article does research into the dynamic of Georgias′ population change (1989-2020) and the share of rural population in the initative population. Also, the decrease tendency in sawn and hurvested areas (1990-2020) and alongside the reduction of agricultural products is considered in the article.
In addition, the data of animal husbandry production in 1990-2020 and flactuation in consumer prices have been considered here, as well. The work includes food balance sheets of wheat, vegetables, meat, also the self-sufficiency ratios and average indices on food consumption.
The quality of population nutrition determines the development level of country′s economics and social life. At the same time, food security is directly connected with environmental security. And the misuse of land resources causes the deterioration of ecological conditions in the country, lowers the growth rate of agricultural production and provides a background for manufacturing of raw materials and products contaminated by various toxic substances. Under the conditions of modern globalization, where countries′ economic and political relations are intertwined, food security attains the global problem status, and its solving becomes a strategic purpose for any state.
Finally, this article considers the importance of rational use of land resources in Georgia for providing the country with food products. Factors forming the relationship of land (soil) usage level and food security are demonstrated, and the main directions for the increase of land usage effectiveness are determined.
Keywords: land resources, effectiveness, subsistence minimum, food security, consolidation, economic protectionism.

Published: October 2021

It is proposed to consider the cluster policy in the field of health care development as an informal entity that unites leading companies, various research and educational organizations and other unanimous institutions on a voluntary basis. The peculiarities of the implementation of the cluster policy of the state are that it combines industrial, socio-economic and regional policies. In methodological terms, the study of the formation and implementation of state cluster policy in the field of health care development should take place in the following areas: identification of mechanisms for managing the development of health care; analysis of the implementation of such mechanisms; conducting research on current problems that arise in the implementation of state health development policy; various strategic directions for the development of health care and improving its quality to the required level of world standards. In particular, the state's cluster policy pursues goals that intersect closely with society, government and business to promote the health of the entire population, manage the development of health care, develop appropriate infrastructure both directly in the health care sector and in some of its specific parts, open access to innovations and technologies and more. The peculiarity of the organization of the cluster is its members, who are not part of it in absolute terms, but only its part, designed to achieve the goal (this is its difference from the general system approach). The organizational structure of the system of state cluster policy in the field of health care development is presented, which allows to regulate the issues of balanced socio-economic development of the country, assessment of its investment attractiveness, level of economic independence and stability of cluster institutions and other tasks.

International Anti-Money Laundering Measures and Professional
Authors: Khan Mansoor
Published: October 2021

Money laundering is one of the biggest and the fastest growing problems in the contemporary world. It is seen that in legitimate economy most of the dirty money i.e. 38.6% comes from the investment fraudulent schemes, bankruptcy fraud and corporate frauds whereas, 27.5% comes from drug trafficking. This rising trend of money laundering and other financial frauds are due to several reasons, which include the activities in businesses that do not comply with professional ethics. The current research is a qualitative research that has used secondary data to derive the results. Because the study followed a deductive approach, the results of the study have been derived by utilising the existing theories and established data from published literature and different reports. The analysis of the obtained data has been conducted in the form of content analysis to attain the objectives of the current study. The findings of the study suggest that the international organisations have taken several steps to ensure the reduction of money laundering by imposing several unified acts based on the Vienna Convention and the Palermo Convention. It has also been found that ethically compliant professional activities also play an integral part against money laundering. Some of these activities have been reported as forming strong codes of conduct for monetary operations, informing the bad repercussions of participating in money laundering activities, and having proper control and management strategies in position that can have adequate monitoring on institutional improper conduct. The study recommends that every state should have regulated and monitored free trade zones as they are often used as the cornerstone of money laundering. Moreover, a centralised reporting system of the financial institutions have also been recommended, alongside the establishment of a regulatory body for the lawyers and accountants.
Residential House Prices, Commercial Real Estate Lending and Bank Failures
Authors: Hanweck Gerald A. , Sanders Anthony B. , Fissel Gary S.
Published: October 2021

We investigate factors leading to bank failures during and after the Great Recession and banking crisis (2008–2015). The FHFA residential real estate house price index (HPI) for each of the 9 Census regions is used to interact with bank mortgage loans and bank financial statement variables. We find that these variables isolate different regional effects on the likelihood of a bank failing. Since we use changes from region to region, we find that regional location and HPI changes have an effect on banks’ commercial lending activity. Other more traditional and associated factors, like construction and land development lending or multifamily real estate lending, similarly explain bank failures during the main period of the banking crisis. By using this approach we better isolate the relationship between residential house prices and builders’ and land developers’ desire to borrow and the willingness of banks to concentrate portfolio lending in commercial real estate.

La vitamina D es esencial para el funcionamiento del organismo. Su deficiencia puede estar asociada tanto a patologías óseas, como a otras afecciones sistémicas. La prevalencia de la hipovitaminosis está aumentando, en todas las edades, incluidos niños y adolescentes. El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar los niveles sanguíneos de vitamina D en niñas colombianas, analizando también la dieta, la actividad física y la exposición solar. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo transversal con 52 niñas sanas prepúberes de Pasto (Colombia), entre 7 y 10 años. Se analizaron los niveles de albúmina, calcio, fósforo, magnesio, calcitriol (1,25 dihidroxicolecalciferol) y calcidiol (25 hidroxicolecalciferol). Se realizaron encuestas sobre hábitos alimentarios, actividad física y exposición solar. El 51,1% de las niñas evaluadas presentó insuficiencia de 25-OH-VITD y el 40% presentó deficiencia (< 20 ng/mL). Ninguna niña se encontraba en desnutrición u obesidad, el 10% se encontraba en riesgo de bajo peso (IMC ≤ -1DE y > -2DE), el 4 % presentaba sobrepeso (≥ +1DE y < +2DE), y el 34 % se encontraban en riesgo de talla baja (T/E: -1 y -2 DE). La ingesta media de calorías/día fue inferior a las recomendadas. Se observó una ingesta deficiente de vitamina D, calcio y magnesio (p > 0,05), así como de fibra (p > 0,05). Se pone de manifiesto una deficiencia de vitamina D en las niñas evaluadas a pesar de tener una actividad física y una exposición solar adecuadas. Además, se observan ingestas deficientes de fibra, calcio, magnesio y vitamina D. Habría por tanto que asegurar la ingesta e incluso suplementar para evitar problemas de salud en la edad adulta.

Objetive: To analyze the influence of individual and household factors on eating behavior (EB) and other determinants related to eating during the home lockdown in the Covid-19 pandemic. Method: Online survey (April 17 to May 10, 2020) to collect sociodemographic information, health, and various EB attitudes. Statistical analysis of the factors: country, setting, sex, BMI classification, lockdown period, a household with children under 15 years, nutritional needs, age groups, type and size household, monthly income, and religion. Results: 1055 households participated. 75% have modified their eating habits, with differences due to being overweight or obese in the person surveyed (p <0.05). Changes in EB and other lifestyles are influenced by household structure (p <0.001) and the effects that the pandemic has had on the economy of families (p <0.001). Compared to those who do not have them, households with children tend to plan much more meals, spend more time eating, seek a healthier diet, increase the number of daily meals, and look more at labeling. In contrast, people who live alone have worsened the hourly routines of the main meals. Conclusions: Confinement has modified eating behavior differently depending on the individual and domestic factors analyzed.

Tradicionalmente se han utilizado algunos índices antropométricos para el diagnóstico de exceso de peso en niños y adolescentes que han mostrado algunas desventajas por lo que se han postulado otros indicadores. En ese sentido, se plantea estimar el nivel de asociación entre indicadores antropométricos y la presencia de dislipidemia en adolescentes y adultos jóvenes. Se realizó una investigación observacional, descriptiva y de corte transversal en 123 adolescentes (68,2% mujeres, edad promedio 14,5 años) y 122 adultos jóvenes (70,5% mujeres, edad promedio 21 años) de la ciudad de Caracas. Se calcularon Índices de Masa Corporal (IMC), Índice Cintura–Talla (ICT), Índice de Masa Corporal Abdominal (IMCA) e Índice de Masa Tri-Ponderal (IMT). Se obtuvo una muestra de sangre por punción venosa, en ayuno de 12 a 14 horas, a partir de la cual se cuantificó Colesterol Total, Lipoproteína de alta densidad y Triglicéridos. Se calculó la concentración de Lipoproteína de baja densidad por la fórmula de Friedewald, así como el índice LDL-C/HDL-C y el índice LogTg/HDL. Para el análisis e interpretación de los datos se utilizó estadística descriptiva univariante y multivariante. Los resultados revelaron que los índices antropométricos IMCA e IMT no mostraron mejor desempeño en predecir dislipidemia que los indicadores IMC, Circunferencia de Cintura (CC) e ICT en adolescentes y adultos jóvenes. Los indicadores antropométricos de adiposidad abdominal, CC e ICT, tendieron a presentar mayores OR, ABC, sensibilidad y especificidad independientemente del grupo de estudio. En general, la capacidad de los indicadores antropométricos evaluados en predecir la presencia de dislipidemia en adultos jóvenes fue adecuada, situación que no se presentó en los adolescentes.

Published: October 2021

La mayoría de los estudios apoyan la tesis de que el desayuno es la comida más importante del día. Un desayuno adecuado contribuye a lograr un patrón dietético global saludable y a mejorar la calidad de la dieta. El objetivo de este estudio fue determinar los principales patrones de desayuno en tres poblaciones universitarias de España, Túnez y Estados Unidos, analizar sus semejanzas y diferencias y estudiar la influencia de factores antropométricos, sociodemográficos y de estilo de vida en la adherencia a cada patrón. Se realizó un estudio transversal con datos de 730 estudiantes matriculados en las Universidades de Castilla-La Mancha, Cartago e Internacional de Florida en 2013. El consumo de alimentos se obtuvo mediante dos recordatorios de 24 horas, no consecutivos, uno de ellos en fin de semana. Los patrones se identificaron mediante análisis factorial exploratorio. La adherencia de los estudiantes a cada patrón se evaluó usando las puntuaciones factoriales. Se obtuvieron cuatro patrones para cada país. El principal patrón de los universitarios españoles incluyó pan, tomate, sal y aceite de oliva (varianza explicada: 20,85%); el principal de los tunecinos contenía pan, mermelada, nata y mantequilla (varianza explicada: 12,73%) y el principal de los americanos incluyó huevos, leche entera y azúcares (varianza explicada: 10,77%). Género, peso, IMC o comer fuera de casa fueron factores que influyeron en la adherencia a diferentes patrones. El estudio mostró la coexistencia de patrones tradicionales con otros occidentalizados y modelos transicionales intermedios. No se determinó un patrón generalizable asociado a mejores resultados del IMC.

Introducción: La pérdida de patrones de alimentación tradicionales a favor de otros más occidentales redunda en un descenso de calidad de la dieta alrededor del mundo. Muchos aspectos determinan la calidad dietética, aunque en general pueden resumirse en una dieta moderada, variada, equilibrada y adecuada para cada individuo. Estos aspectos son evaluados por el Diet Quality Index-International (DQI-I). Objetivo: Comparar la calidad de la dieta de población mexicana y española mediante un índice de calidad internacional de la dieta, determinando que factores son en mayor medida responsables de la pérdida de calidad. Material y métodos: Estudio observacional transversal sobre una muestra representativa de sujetos adultos residentes en Querétaro (México) y de sujetos de la misma franja de edad procedentes de la Región de Murcia, en la cuenca mediterránea española. Se recogieron datos sociodemográficos, antropométricos, de frecuencia de consumo de alimentos y de ingesta con 3 recuerdos de 24 horas y se valoró el DQI-I en la población. Resultados: Se encontraron diferencias para el gasto energético y el DQI-I en todos sus aspectos con valores de calidad superiores para la población mexicana. La variedad fue la dimensión más castigada para todos los sujetos, presentando los mexicanos mejores cifras de consumo de vegetales pero peores para las fuentes proteicas. Conclusiones: La muestra mexicana mejoró las cifras de calidad de la española, tal vez por una mayor influencia de conocimientos en nutrición. El 86% de la población podría mejorar sus puntajes de calidad en el DQI-I ajustando sus frecuencias de consumo de alimentos.

Authors: da Silva Jacqueline , da Luz Laércio , Silva Luciana , Amancio-dos-Santos Angela
Published: October 2021

Reflex-ontogeny and intestinal morphometrics were evaluated in Wistar rats whose mothers were fed on a high-fat diet during the perinatal period. Male pups (n=52) formed four experimental groups: NN (pups from mothers with lab chow diet during gestation and lactation); NH (pups from mothers with lab chow diet during pregnancy and high-fat in lactation); HH (pups from mothers with high-fat diet during gestation and lactation); HN (pups from mothers with high-fat diet during pregnancy and lab chow in lactation). The reflex ontogeny, the maturation of physical characteristics and parameters of somatic growth were evaluated during lactation. In addition, the body mass index (BMI), the specific rate of weight gain (SRWG), the Lee index, the weight of the brain and intestinal parameters were analyzed after weaning. High-fat diet during pregnancy (HH and HN groups) delayed the maturation of reflexes and physical characteristics. The high-fat diet affected somatic growth differently, reducing somatic growth parameters in the groups NH and HH and increasing in the HN group. The highest SRWG was found in group HN. SRWG and BMI were reduced in the groups NH and HH. The relative intestinal weight was reduced in the groups NH, HH and HN. The relative length of small intestine was longer in group HN than in group NN. The total height of the mucosa and size of the villous were lower in group HH than in group NN. In conclusion, high-fat diet promoted negative consequences for the development of the nervous and enteric systems of the offspring.

Published: October 2021

With the advent of informatics, artists competed to attract audiences by producing digital artwork more creatively. Artists have been using computers in every aspect of their daily lives. The use of the mediums and art that the artist wants to express has changed and is varied. This, in turn, helped in the emergence of new artistic classifications in the field of plastic art that highlights the heritage and civilization aspects of Saudi society, as it is based on the foundations and rules generally related to society, such as ideological, philosophical, social, psychological, and cognitive foundations. The Saudi fine art movement always puts in its philosophical considerations the concept of consolidating the Saudi identity for the connoisseur to mark the Saudi fine artwork with a unique philosophical character with educational dimensions. There is no identity without heritage.
