Parkinson’s disease (PD) and other neurologic conditions are now the leading cause of health loss and disability around the world, affecting nearly half of the world's population. Affecting about 1% of population older than 60 years, the PD is among common neurologic disorders, which causes progressive disability that can only be slowed, but not cured, by treatment. Once patients display symptoms like rigidity, bradykinesia, or tremor it's most probably too late for neuroprotective therapy because 70% of the dopaminergic neurons are already dead. With early preclinical diagnosis, we should be able to identify the preclinical phase of Parkinson's disease and include these patients in future trials for neuroprotection. The goal of medical management of PD is to provide control of signs and symptoms for as long as possible while minimizing adverse effects. Several primary neurodegenerative disorders distinct from PD share parkinsonian features of bradykinesia, rigidity, tremor, and balance disturbances. All these disorders share common features of PD, thus being collectively named Parkinson-plus syndromes. An inadequate response to treatment in a patient with parkinsonian symptoms suggests the possibility of Parkinson-plus syndrome. Clinically, however, 4 separate Parkinson-plus syndromes have been identified, as follows: Multiple system atrophy (MSA), Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), Corticobasal ganglionic degeneration (CBD), Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB).
Cardiovascular Risk Stratification in Pregnant Women with Gestational Diabetes: A Comparative Analysis of Predictive Models in Padang, Indonesia
Authors: Cinthya Callathea  , Vania Delma  , Muhammad Rusli  , Bjorka Alma  , Rinna Azrida
Published: February 2025

Introduction: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) significantly increases the risk of both short-term and long-term cardiovascular disease (CVD) in women. Effective risk stratification during pregnancy is crucial for targeted interventions. This study aimed to compare the performance of established cardiovascular risk prediction models in a cohort of pregnant women with GDM in Padang, Indonesia.
Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted involving 350 pregnant women diagnosed with GDM at two major hospitals in Padang, Indonesia, between January 2022 and June 2023. Baseline demographic, clinical, and laboratory data were collected. Three established CVD risk prediction models – the Framingham Risk Score (FRS), the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) Pooled Cohort Equations (PCE), and a modified version of the PCE adapted for GDM (PCE-GDM) – were applied to calculate individual 10-year CVD risk scores. The primary outcome was the development of any major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), defined as myocardial infarction, stroke, or cardiovascular death, or new-onset hypertension requiring medication, within one year postpartum. Model performance was assessed using discrimination (c-statistic) and calibration (Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test).
Results: The mean age of participants was 32.4 ± 5.1 years. The prevalence of pre-existing hypertension was 8.6%, and the mean pre-pregnancy BMI was 28.5 ± 4.7 kg/m². During the one-year follow-up, 25 (7.1%) women experienced a MACE. The PCE-GDM model demonstrated the best discrimination (c-statistic = 0.82, 95% CI 0.76-0.88), followed by the PCE (c-statistic = 0.75, 95% CI 0.68-0.82), and the FRS (c-statistic = 0.68, 95% CI 0.60-0.76). The PCE-GDM also showed good calibration (χ² = 8.3, p = 0.41), while the FRS and PCE tended to underestimate risk (χ² = 18.5, p = 0.02 and χ² = 15.2, p = 0.06, respectively).
Conclusion: The PCE-GDM model, specifically adapted for GDM, showed superior performance in predicting short-term cardiovascular risk compared to traditional models in this Indonesian cohort. These findings highlight the need for GDM-specific risk stratification tools to improve cardiovascular risk management in this vulnerable population.

Marketing istraživanje kao kritiĉni deo procesa donošenja marketing odluka doprinosi poboljšanju kvaliteta odluĉivanja obezbeĊivanjem relevantnih, preciznih i pravovremenih informacija. Svaki projekat marketing istraživanja je jedinstven u odreĊenom smislu i svaka odluka zahteva jedinstvene potrebe za informacijama, a na osnovu tih informacija moguće je razviti i relevantne strategije. Ĉesto se marketing istraživanje posmatra uprošćeno kao sakupljanje i analiziranje podataka koje će neko drugi koristiti. Zapravo, organizacije mogu da ostvare i održe kompetitivnu prednost kroz kreativnu upotrebu marketing informacija. Tako, marketing istraživanje se posmatra kao input za odluke, ali je pri tome važno istaći da samo za sebe marketing istraživanje ne garantuje uspeh, već je potrebna inteligentna upotreba marketing istraživanja kako bi se ostvarila željena poslovna poboljšanja. Proizilazi da je za ostvarivanje konkurentske prednosti pored posedovanja potrebnih informacija od izuzetne važnosti i naĉin na koji se te informacije koriste. Kako su donosioci odluka prvenstveno fokusirani na tržišnu performansu, prilikom donošenja odluka bitna su sledeća pitanja: ko su potencijalni potrošaĉi, šta potrošaĉi žele od proizvoda i usluga, kako i gde potrošaĉi žele da im budu dostupni ili isporuĉeni konkretni proizvodi i usluge, koju cenu su potrošaĉi spremni da plate i sl.
MeĊutim, usled globalizacije, i komplikovanih sistema filijala, veleprodavaca i maloprodavaca stvaraju se barijere izmeĊu menadžera i potrošaĉa, tako da su menadžeri kao individualci od ĉijih finalnih analiza zavisi uspeh ili neuspeh organizacije izdvojeni i udaljeni od potrošaĉa. Pored udaljenosti od potrošaĉa usled organizacione hijerarhije važni razlozi zbog kojih menadžeri trebaju informacije od marketing istraživaĉa su i sve veći zahtevi i oĉekivanja potrošaĉa, kao i sve veći broj kompanija koje se suoĉavaju sa internacionalnom konkurencijom. Uvidom uopštenog pregleda poslovnih dešavanja smatra se da organizacije širom sveta gube polovinu svojih potrošaĉa svakih pet godina, a više od dve trećine organizacija ne uspe da ispuni oĉekivanja i zadovolji potrebe potrošaĉa usled pogrešnih percepcija o tome šta potrošaĉi zaista žele.
Ciljevi marketing istraživanja se mogu odnositi na istraživanje proizvoda i usluga, istraživanje ponude i potražnje, istraživanje potrošaĉa, istraživanje konkurencije, istraživanje osnovnih elemenata marketing mix-a. Bez obzira da li je u pitanju kvalitativno ili kvantitativno istraživanje osnovni cilj marketing istraživanja je da se menadžmentu pruže relevantne informacije neophodne za optimalno odluĉivanje. Dakle, treba još jednom istaći da marketing istraživanje ne garantuje uspeh i predstavlja samo asistenciju u donošenju odluka, a ne alat menadžment odluĉivanja u smislu direktnog obezbeĊivanja odluka.

Ruska Federacija illi Rusija je drţava koja se prostire na ogromnim prostranstvima Istoĉne Evrope i sjeverne Azije. Sa površinom od 17.075.400 km ruska Federacija je najveća drţava na svijetu. Ona pokriva skoro duplo veću teritoriju od Kanade, Kine, ili Sjedinjenih Ameriĉkih Drţava. Po broju stanovnika je sedma na svijetu poslije Kine, Indije, SAD, Indonezije, Brazila i Pakistana. Nekada najistaknutija republika SSSR-a, Rusija je postala nezavisna drţava po raspadu SSSR-a, decembra 1991. Nakon tranzicije iz komunizam u modernu svjetski demokratski orijentisanu drţavu sa de facto polupredsjedniĉkim sistemom i Vladimirom Putinom u ulozi predsjednika, Rusija uspjeva prevazići tranzicione „djeĉije bolesti“ i sveukupno se naći u vrhu svjetske moći i nezaobilaznog polotiĉko-pravnog odluĉioca.
Research on educational assessment and teaching optimization strategies based on environmental and social psychology
Authors: Bian Hongxuan
Published: February 2025

This study presents a novel integrated framework that uniquely combines environmental and social psychology perspectives to optimize educational assessment and teaching methodology in Chinese high schools. Unlike previous studies that examined these factors in isolation, our approach innovatively investigates their synergistic effects through a comprehensive mixed-methods design spanning 12 high schools across diverse regions of China. Using a mixed-methods approach, data were collected from 2,400 students and 240 teachers across 12 high schools in Eastern, Central, and Western China. The research employed comprehensive measurement tools including the Classroom Environment Scale (CES) and Student Interaction Matrix (SIM) to assess environmental and social psychological factors. Results indicate significant correlations between environmental adaptation and academic performance (r = 0.68, p = 0.0003), with grade level moderating this relationship. Hierarchical regression analyses reveal that environmental and social psychological factors collectively explain 52.3% of the variance in academic performance. The study identifies a crucial mediating role of psychological well-being in the relationship between environmental factors and academic outcomes. Grade 12 students demonstrated higher environmental adaptation capabilities (M = 4.28, SD = 0.67, p = 0.0008) compared to lower grades, suggesting a developmental trajectory in environmental adaptation. These findings provide important implications for educational policy and practice, particularly in optimizing learning environments and teaching methodologies. The research contributes to the theoretical understanding of how environmental and social psychological factors interact to influence educational outcomes in the Chinese context
Introducción. Actuar y comunicar la violencia como instrumento de la acción política en la Castilla del siglo XV
Authors: Jara Fuente José Antonio
Published: February 2025

La violencia política representa no solo una forma de proyección de la lucha política, sino de ordenación del conflicto político «por otros medios». Así, la violencia política no es necesariamente un fenómeno gratuito y desordenado, carente de lógica e incluso de legitimidad. Tampoco es un fenómeno que se produce exclusiva o principalmente de arriba abajo, pues la lógica de la lucha permea a la sociedad, y sus actores son capaces de asociar su actuación a instrumentos específicos de lucha, en función de sus intereses, de su capacidad de proyección de la violencia y del tipo de acción que se precisa en cada contexto. Esta introducción busca examinar la lógica, las instancias y los instrumentos de la lucha política, especialmente, aunque no exclusivamente, en el caso castellano, examinando su conexión con los procesos de comunicación política en los que se inserta. Constituye también una presentación de las contribuciones de este monográfico y de su contextualización en ese doble marco analítico: violencia y comunicación políticas.
Environmental predictability and timing of breeding in the San Andrés vireo (Vireo caribaeus)

Published: February 2025

Timing of breeding is a basic trait that should be understood to determine species' requirements during a crucial stage of their life cycle, especially if conservation measures are needed. This is the case of the San Andrés Vireo (Vireo caribaeus), a vulnerable insectivorous bird endemic to San Andrés Island, Colombia. We explored the relative importance of biotic and abiotic cues possibly acting as factors triggering breeding in this species. We hypothesized that being a marked seasonal breeder, the San Andrés Vireo would use biotic and/or abiotic cues, both proximal and ultimate, to predict the optimum time to start breeding. We calculated environmental predictability with Colwell's model using four years of brood patch and cloacal protuberance data, and correlated nest abundance during a single breeding season with biotic (food availability) and abiotic (photoperiod, rainfall) parameters. Environmental predictability was 54% and constancy contributed twice as much as contingency to this value. Photoperiod was the most probable proximate abiotic factor triggering a hormonal state of breeding readiness given its constant, reliable and measurable change in time. The first strong rains after the dry season and insect abundance probably act as ultimate factors contributing to fine tune the timing of breeding on a year-to-year basis. However, because we did not analyze the abundance of fruits, an important component of nestling diet, we might have underestimated the correlation between breeding and food abundance. Future studies should seek to confirm our correlational observations through controlled experiments and explore the importance of fruiting phenology on the timing of breeding.
The nest of the Ash-breasted Tit-tyrant (Anairetes alpinus)
Authors: Greeney Harold F.
Published: February 2025

El cachudito pechiceniza (Anairetes alpinus) es un atrapamoscas (Tyrannidae) de distribución restringida que habita las alturas de los Andes de Perú, Bolivia, y Argentina. Yo describo, por la primera vez la arquitectura del nido para esta especie, basada en un nido encontrado en el sur de Perú. El nido era una copa compacta y profunda, tejida externamente de musgos y con el interior bastante relleno de plumas. El nido era ubicado en una masa de epifitas, 1.4 m sobre el suelo. La arquitectura y modo de fijación fueron muy parecidos a los nidos de otras especies de Anairetes, con los que también comparten un forro interno de plumas.

Published: February 2025

This study explores the role of inclusive organizational culture in enhancing job satisfaction and employee commitment within multinational companies (MNCs). Utilizing a qualitative approach, the research is grounded in a comprehensive literature review that examines existing theories and empirical studies on organizational culture, job satisfaction, and employee commitment. The findings reveal that an inclusive culture fosters a sense of belonging among employees, leading to increased job satisfaction and stronger commitment to the organization. Key elements of an inclusive culture, such as diversity, equity, and open communication, are identified as critical factors that contribute to positive employee experiences. Furthermore, the study highlights the importance of leadership in cultivating an inclusive environment, as leaders play a pivotal role in modeling inclusive behaviors and implementing policies that promote diversity. The implications of these findings suggest that MNCs should prioritize the development of inclusive organizational cultures to enhance employee well-being and retention. This research contributes to the growing body of literature on organizational behavior by providing insights into how inclusivity can serve as a strategic advantage in the competitive landscape of global business. Future research directions are also proposed to further investigate the long-term effects of inclusive cultures on organizational performance.

Unemployment has an impact on economic development and also community welfare. One of the indicators to measure the level of development is the Human Development Index (HDI). Therefore, the purpose of this research is to obtain the results of HDI prediction and the relationship with the unemployment rate. The method used in this study is the K-NN Ensemble method. This research was conducted using HDI data consisting of data on school life expectancy, per capita expenditure, average school duration, and life expectancy as well as unemployment rate data. The results of the HDI prediction in Central Sulawesi Province are with an average of 69.03 with a MAPE value of 1.45%. Based on the correlation test, it was found that the relationship between HDI and the unemployment rate with a significant value below 0.05 was 0.001. The resulting correlation value is 0.803 which shows that the closeness is very strong and has a negative correlation coefficient property.
