Sytuacja finansowa przedsiębiorstw na rynku hazardu w Polsce
Authors: Skłodowski Ireneusz
Published: March 2024

Przedsiębiorstwa funkcjonujące na rynku hazardu w Polsce znajdują się w stanie ciągłych zmian własnościowych i strukturalnych. Jest to podyktowane zarówno specyfiką tego rynku, jak również ogólnymi uwarunkowaniami gospodarki opartej na zasadach wolnorynkowych. Urządzanie i prowadzenie działalności w zakresie gier losowych, zakładów wzajemnych, gier na automatach i gier na automatach o niskich wygranych w Polsce dozwolone było wyłącznie na zasadach określonych w Ustawie z dnia 29 lipca 1992 r. o grach i zakładach wzajemnych (Dz.U. z 2004 r. Nr 4, poz. 27 z późn. zm.). Mechanizmy rynkowe wymuszają na wszystkich podmiotach dysponowanie majątkiem w sposób możliwie najbardziej racjonalny w celu poprawy efektywności ekonomicznej gospodarowania i sytuacji finansowej przedsiębiorstwa. Konsekwencją takiego działania był systematyczny rozwój rynku hazardu, co przekładało się również na wzrost wpływów do budżetu państwa z podatków od gier oraz podatku dochodowego od osób prawnych. W latach 2005–2007 zaobserwowano wpływ czynników mikroekonomicznych na kształtowanie tego rynku. Nie byłoby możliwe osiąganie efektów makroekonomicznych bez uzyskiwania efektywności mikroekonomicznej przez samodzielnie gospodarujące podmioty, poddawane jedynie pośredniemu sterowaniu ze strony państwa [Walczak 2007, s. 28].

Authors: Kot-Zacharuk Agnieszka
Published: March 2024

W opracowaniu określono kierunki rozwoju polskiej bankowości spółdzielczej w opiniach zarządzających bankami spółdzielczymi. Badaniami objęto banki spółdzielcze należące do Zrzeszenia Mazowieckiego Banku Regionalnego S.A. (MR Bank S.A.). Wyniki badań przedstawiają poglądy prezesów banków spółdzielczych na koniec 2009 r. Badania przeprowadzono z wykorzystaniem kwestionariusza wywiadu w 40 bankach spółdzielczych, w których zarządzający wyrazili zgodę. Opinie pogrupowano według kryterium uczestnictwa lub nie w konsolidacji oraz kryterium wartości kapitału własnego. Do grupowania banków wykorzystano metodę kwartyli. Banki uporządkowano według kryterium wartości kapitału własnego na trzy grupy: I grupa (25%) to podmioty o najniższym kapitale własnym, II grupa (50%) – środkowy kwartyl odpowiadający przeciętnej wartości kapitału własnego i III grupa (25%) – banki spółdzielcze o najwyższym kapitale własnym.

Authors: Kata Ryszard
Published: March 2024

Celem opracowania jest określenie mechanizmów wpływu asymetrii informacji na powstawanie ograniczeń kredytowych w rolnictwie zarówno o charakterze zewnętrznym (ograniczenia podażowe), jak i wewnętrznym (ograniczenia popytowe). W opracowaniu wykorzystano literaturę dotyczącą teoretycznych aspektów asymetrii informacji oraz ograniczeń kredytowych w rolnictwie. Ponadto skorzystano także z wyników badań empirycznych, prowadzonych przez autora w Polsce południowo-wschodniej na losowo wybranych próbach gospodarstw rolnych oraz banków działających w sferze finansowania wsi i rolnictwa. Badania gospodarstw rolnych prowadzono w latach 2007–2008 w województwach podkarpackim, świętokrzyskim i małopolskim. Sondażem diagnostycznym przy użyciu kwestionariusza wywiadu objęto 736 indywidualnych gospodarstw rolnych o powierzchni powyżej 1 ha UR, które uzyskują dopłaty bezpośrednie. Z kolei badania ankietowe banków zrealizowano w 2009 roku, obejmowały one 62 jednostki (banki spółdzielcze i oddziały operacyjne banków komercyjnych), które prowadzą działalność operacyjną na obszarach wiejskich i miejsko wiejskich (zakres przestrzenny był analogiczny jak w badaniach gospodarstw rolnych)
Kapitał intelektualny i wiedza jako czynniki nowoczesnego zarządzania finansami – studium przypadku
Authors: Olak Andrzej
Published: March 2024

Wzrastające zainteresowanie problematyką zarządzania wiedzą i kapitałem intelektualnym, które można zauważyć zarówno w światowej, jak i polskiej literaturze przedmiotu, to odpowiedź na wyzwania praktyki zarządzania. Dzisiaj kapitał intelektualny postrzegany jest jako ważny czynnik decydujący o sukcesie organizacji, źródło przewagi konkurencyjnej oraz istotny element procesu kreowania jej wartości rynkowej. Współczesny rynek pracy jest bardzo wymagający, a kierunkowe wykształcenie przestało już wystarczać, by osiągnąć sukces, szczególnie w branży finansowej. Teraz pracodawcy poszukują pracowników, którzy zamiast skupiać się na mierzeniu wyników, mogą się bezpośrednio przyczynić do ich wzrostu. By sprostać konkurencyjności na rynku, fi rmy potrzebują specjalistów, którzy potrafi ą wykorzystać swoje umiejętności do podnoszenia efektywności przedsiębiorstwa, co przekłada się na wymierne sukcesy organizacji. Wymogiem w szanującej się fi rmie, a dla pracownika szansą na awans i jego kolejne stopnie, staje się umiejętność interpretacji, analizy, planowania i podejmowania decyzji. Dlatego, jeśli ktoś mierzy wysoko, planując rozwój organizacji, musi zadbać o rozwój kapitału intelektualnego. Celem opracowania jest zaprezentowanie, na przykładzie Nadsańskiego Banku Spółdzielczego w Stalowej Woli, iż rozwój organizacji jest determinowany takimi czynnikami, jak otwartość na zmiany, innowacje i gotowość uczenia się. Wiedza i informacja stają się dzisiaj głównymi czynnikami, które kierują życiem organizacji, wpływając na wzrost skuteczności jej działania. Stają się atrakcyjne dla organizacji, gdyż „(…) tylko to istnieje, co można zmierzyć” [Jurek M. 2002, s. 85].

Generalized inequalities for nonuniform wavelet frames in linear canonical transform domain
Authors: Bhat Younus
Published: March 2024

A constructive algorithm based on the theory of spectral pairs for
constructing nonuniform wavelet basis in L2(R) was considered by Gabardo and
Nashed. In this setting, the associated translation set is a spectrum ?
which is not necessarily a group nor a uniform discrete set, given ? = {0,
r/N} + 2Z, where N ? 1 (an integer) and r is an odd integer with 1 ? r ? 2N?1
such that r and N are relatively prime and Z is the set of all integers. In
this article, we continue this study based on non-standard setting and
obtain some inequalities for the nonuniform wavelet system {f?j,?(x) =
(2N)j/2f((2N)jx??)e???A/B (t2??2), j ? Z, ? ? ?}to be a frame
associated with linear canonical transform in L2(R). We use the concept of
linear canonical transform so that our results generalise and sharpen some
well-known wavelet inequalities.
Local separation, closedness and zero-dimensionality in quantale-valued reflexive spaces
Authors: Özkan Samed
Published: March 2024

In this paper, first, we introduce the category Q-RRel consisting of
quantale-valued reflexive spaces and Q-monotone mappings, and prove that it
is a normalized topological category over Set, the category of sets and
functions. Furthermore, we characterize explicitly each of local Ti, i = 0,
1, 2 and PreT2 Q-reflexive spaces and examine the relationships among them.
Finally, we give the characterizations of (strongly) closed subsets and
zero-dimensional objects in this category.
Microbial Safety Assessment of Gebauer’s Pain Ease® Spray on Invasive Procedural Sites
Authors: Attali Ami , Vander Woude Thomas , Fayed Mohamed , Nowak Katherine
Published: March 2024

Aim:

This study aimed to investigate the impact of Gebauer’s Pain Ease® (Gebauer Company, Cleveland, OH) topical refrigerant spray on the disinfection of skin sites, focusing on the volar wrist and lower back. The primary objective was to determine whether the application of Pain Ease would compromise the disinfection of these sites, potentially making it a suitable alternative to injectable lidocaine for invasive medical procedures.

Methods:

This prospective, blinded, controlled study was conducted at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, MI. Healthy adult hospital employees were recruited, and written consent was obtained. Swabs were taken from the volar wrist and lower back sites before and after treatment with ChloraPrep™ (BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ) and Pain Ease. Microbial cultures were performed, and microbial growth levels were assessed and categorized. Data analysis included comparisons of microbial growth between untreated samples, ChloraPrep-treated samples, and ChloraPrep + Pain Ease-treated samples.

Results:

Data were collected from 72 participants, with 6 samples per participant (2 locations, 3 treatments each). For wrist samples, there were no statistically significant differences in microbial growth between ChloraPrep and ChloraPrep + Pain Ease. Similarly, for lower-back samples, microbial growth did not significantly differ between these 2 treatment groups.

Conclusions:

This study demonstrates that the application of Gebauer’s Pain Ease to ChloraPrep disinfected skin areas does not negatively affect the reduction of the bacterial load, supporting its potential as an alternative to injectable lidocaine and other superficial anesthetics for vascular access or invasive medical procedures. However, further research is warranted to explore the application of Pain Ease in various clinical scenarios and optimize patient comfort during longer and more invasive procedures.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a widespread multifactorial genetically determined inflammatory skin disease caused by, among other causes, impaired functions of the epidermal barrier. Loss-of-function mutations of the filaggrin gene (important component of the natural moisturizing factor system) that arrest production of the full-fledged precursor protein are associated with AD. This work investigated the frequency of the 2282delACTG (rs558269137), R501X (rs61816761), S3247X (rs150597413), R2447X (rs138726443) loss-of-function mutations of the filaggrin gene in adult European patients with moderate to severe AD. The study involved 99 adult patients of both sexes aged 18-68 years. The mutations were identified with the help of the purpose-developed method of multiplex analysis of four single nucleotide polymorphisms that relies on the SNaPshot technique (minisequencing). The incidence of loss-of-function mutation of filaggrin 2282delACTG was 5.3%, that of R501X - 0.5%, R2447X - 1%. No S3247X mutation was detected in the sample. Collation of the results with Russian and European samples revealed a comparable level of the analyzed filaggrin gene mutations in adult patients with AD from different regions of the Russian Federation.

Authors: AL-Anbari Aseel K. , AL-Hadeethi Muazaz A. , Mysire Duha , Iqbal Muhammad
Published: March 2024

Background: The anatomy of the stem and leaves are important to separate and identify species. The present work includes comparative anatomical and molecular studies of six taxa belonging to the genus Capsicum L. which are grown widely in Iraq. Anatomical and phylogenetic traits were observed for the identification of different taxa.Methods: For the anatomical study, stem, leaves and petioles of leaves were microscopically investigated, while for phylogenetics traits DNA was extracted from fresh and young leaves from each sample using RAPD and ISSR indices.Results: The anatomical results indicate that all taxa have anomocytic type of stomata. The glandular trichomes were found in the taxa C. frutescens and the taxa C. annum var. kkwari-gochu and C. annum was free from it, and these characteristics were important in the classification of the taxa of this genus. Phylogenetic results showed that 10 decamers of primers from 20 observed primers had diversity in cultivars of the genus Capsicum L. The genetic set of 10 RAPD primers and 8 Inter Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSR), and the pooled RAPD and ISSR data analyses support a genetic similarity range of 0.54, and 0.5 sequentially, and the taxa C. frutescens formed a single cluster in both molecular analyses in the genetic tree. The phylogenetic tree results also showed that other Capsicum cultivars are divided into two subgroups, one of which refers to the same variety C. annuum var. annuumm, and it was among the most important taxa studied, as it showed that it has two stages of maturity, physiological and vegetative maturity, so it appears morphologically different, but genetically integrated with the same taxa (Capsicum).
Conclusions: The anatomical and molecular study of Capsicum taxa cultivated in Iraq provides valuable insights into the diversity and relationships between different species of this taxa.

Published: March 2024

Wind turbine performance is a critical aspect of renewable energy systems, and this study focuses on optimizing it through innovative strategies. It also discussed the different parts of WECS, such as wind turbines, generators, and control systems, to enhance their performance and efficiency. The research delves into the integration of speed control and Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) mechanisms using a sophisticated Three-Phase Interleaved Buck-Boost Converter. The converter's unique topology, involving a back-to-back connection, shows a pivotal part in shaping the performance of the wind turbine. Furthermore, the near-zero implementation in MPPT strives to minimize oscillations and enhance photovoltaic panel and wind turbine efficiency. This technique, as explored in various studies, aims to achieve stable, efficient power output by reducing perturbations, ensuring optimal energy capture, and improving overall system reliability. This study investigates the transformation before and after near-zero implementation in various contexts. It explores the impact on energy efficiency with near-zero properties, and the performance of buildings, providing insights into the substantial changes brought about by near-zero initiatives. Additionally, the implementation of MPPT is explored, demonstrating that adjusting delta values can lead to faster stabilization times. By changing the negative delta value to -0.0005, the system achieves stabilization at the target power of 19 kW within 0.2 seconds. These findings emphasize the versatility of the Three-Phase Interleaved Buck-Boost Converter in enhancing both speed control and MPPT for wind turbines

An important area of research is the extraction of organic chemicals from plants and herbs. Considering the fact that the extracts have numerous commercial and pharmacological uses. Furthermore, limiting the optimal working region is made easier by employing an appropriate experimental design. Solvent extraction is the technique most frequently used to separate organic components from plants. However, the conditions of extracting solvent that is utilized greatly affects the yields of the extract and, as a result, the organic activities of the plant parts. This research deals with the extraction of solid organic compounds from the okra leaves using water as a solvent. A Soxhlet apparatus was used for the extraction process. The influence of extraction time, solvent volume, and okra powder mass on the yield percentage was optimized. Two mathematical models were suggested: second-order polynomials and power models. A higher correlation coefficient was obtained with the polynomial model. The maximum extraction yield was obtained at optimum values of 200.3 min, 29.07 g, and 290.7 ml for time, okra powder mass, and solvent volume, respectively. It is evident from mathematical formulas that the impact of time was less significant than the effects of solvent volume and powder mass. On the other hand, the power model and the second-order quadratic interaction model had correlation coefficients of 0.4849 and 0.9707, respectively.

Authors: Mahmudah Siti , Shafrizal Alfan
Published: March 2024

Learning Islamic religious education can not be separated from the results of learning or assessment. The assessment of Islamic religious education subjects did not describe students' attitudes. This study aims to assess attitudes toward Islamic religious education in elementary schools. This study used the descriptive qualitative method. Sources of data obtained from primary data and secondary data. Primary data are from 19th-grade and 5th-grade students.Meanwhile, secondary data includes principals, teachers, parents, and classmates. Data collection techniques used are observation, interviews, and documentation. The collected data will be processed using inductive qualitative analysis through data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing or verification. The study results reveal that Islamic religious education is less successful because parents still view that schools only carry out the task of educating children. Parental attention to children is only in the form of fulfilling material needs such as clothing, food, and board needs. At the same time, the problem of moral formation and development is left entirely to the school. In addition, because it underestimates the existence of Islamic religious education lessons, it is a lesson that is not too important and easy to learn without having to think.
