The objective of the study was to investigate the peculiarities of detection and diagnosis of tuberculosis (TB) in patients of the psychiatric hospital. We conducted a case-control study of 112 patients. The patients were divided into two groups: group 1 (n = 71) included psychiatric patients with detected changes in the lungs, group 2 (n = 41) included patients with detected changes in the lungs without psychiatric disorders. The diagnosis of TB was confirmed in 20 (28.2%) patients of group 1 and 11 (26.8%) patients of group 2. We established that in psychiatric patients active detection of TB prevailed (OR = 1.9) due to cognitive impairment and lack of explicit complaints, destructive processes in the lungs were less common (OR = 3.2). The study demonstrated the effectiveness of molecular genetic (75% sensitivity) and immunological (Diaskintest®) methods of TB diagnosis in these patients.

Authors: Eke Ihuoma Chikulirim , Eke Felix Awara
Published: July 2024

High and sustained economic growth can be achieved through strong institutions and the development of resilient economies. This exploratory study used data from World Development and Governance Indicators to attempt the construction of a macroeconomic stability index and economic resilience index for West African countries following the work of Briguglio et al (2009). It further used the indices constructed to examine the effect of resilience on growth and the modifying effect of institutional quality in this relationship. It found that from the index developed, there was a low level of resilience among West African countries with the highest at 46.4%. Institutional quality was found to positively and significantly influence the effect of resilience on economic growth in countries within the region and thus recommends strengthening the institutional framework for countries in the region through the ECOWAS community strategy. Also being armed with the knowledge of each member states' economic resilience level will help set the agenda for investment decisions that will engender economic prosperity.

Authors: Kazemzadeh Atoofi Mehrdad , Rezaei Khodadadi Fatemeh , Djalalinia Shirin
Published: July 2024

Background: Suicide is one of the most common high-risk behaviors in teenagers and young adults. In this regard, various solutions are implemented to prevent and treat this social concern. In the field of spiritual health and spiritual interventions in societies like Iran, which are generally mixed with religious values and beliefs, it is considered one of the most important priorities. Objectives: The main purpose of this study is an analysis of spiritual interventions in the prevention and management of student suicide and to propose practical national suggestions. Materials and Methods: Present investigation was conducted in three stages; through the first step, a systematic review of the texts was done. The second stage includes explaining the strengths, weaknesses, challenges, and suggestions for improving the interventions from the point of view of key informants and students. In the third stage, an expert panel was coordinated in order to consolidate the findings. Results: After checking the overlap and removing the duplicates, finally, thematic connection was made based on the titles, abstracts, and full texts of the articles and information was extracted from 15 papers. Generally, based on published documents, factors related to youth and adolescent suicide are classified into three categories: Demographic, environmental, and psychological factors. Studies have shown that people who have one or more risk factors are more likely to engage in suicidal behaviors. The categories related to causal conditions, background conditions, intervening factors, and common coping strategies were determined through content analysis. Following the panel of experts, the empowerment of at-risk groups and the provision of training needs assessment for the target groups was the most important priority. Conclusions: Vast advocacy, in youth and student groups, regarding the deep concepts of spiritual health plays an important role in the prevention of suicide. The main interventional priorities include: Emphasizing the role of spirituality in giving meaning to life, creating hope and motivation, and improving the individual in all aspects of health.
The Effects of Sleep Inertia on the Acoustic and Perceptual Voice Changes in Adult University Students
Authors: Nazari Mohammad-Amin , Baghban Kowsar , Seifpanahi Mohammad-Sadegh , Tapak Leili
Published: July 2024

Background: Sleep inertia, characterized by reduced alertness and cognitive functioning upon waking, has been well-researched in its effects on cognitive and motor abilities. However, its impact on voice quality remains less clear. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between sleep inertia following nocturnal sleep and changes in acoustic and perceptual voice parameters in adults. Methods: Ninety healthy participants (45 females, 45 males, ages: 18 - 30 years) took part in a pre-post study using convenience sampling. Their voices were recorded before and after nocturnal sleep across multiple tasks, including vowel /a/ phonation, spontaneous speech, text reading, and maximum phonation time (MPT). Recordings were made in a quiet room using a Zoom H6 recorder at a 44.1 kHz rate. The acoustic analysis included measures of fundamental frequency (F0), standard deviation of F0 (SD F0), vocal intensity, harmonics-to-noise ratio (HNR), cepstral peak prominence smoothed (CPPS), jitter, shimmer, and formant frequencies. Auditory-perceptual evaluation was conducted using the GRBAS Scale. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS-19. The Shapiro-Wilk test assessed normality, and a paired t-test compared variables, separately for males and females at a 0.05 significance level. Results: Acoustic analysis revealed that both females and males experienced a decrease in mean F0, mean intensity, HNR, and CPPS, and an increase in jitter, shimmer, and SD F0 across most voice samples after sleeping. These changes were particularly significant for females in all voice samples (P < 0.001). Perceptual analysis also showed a significant increase in grade, roughness, breathiness, asthenia, and strain for both genders after sleep (P < 0.001). Conclusions: This study demonstrated that sleep inertia negatively impacts vocal performance, resulting in a decline in voice quality for both genders after sleep compared to before. Notably, this decline in voice quality was more pronounced in women than in men.

Authors: Shafighi Amirhossein , Mousavizadeh Seyedeh Narjes , Koshki Masumeh , Fini Yekta
Published: July 2024

Background: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a chronic neurodevelopmental disorder that, in addition to its impact on children, may lead their parents to experience various psychological disorders, particularly Parenting Stress (PS). The prevalence and severity of PS may be correlated with various factors, particularly parents' level of Health Literacy (HL). Objectives: Given the scarcity of studies in the field of children with ADHD and their controversial results, alongside the significance of ADHD-related PS among their parents, the aim of the current study was to determine the levels of PS, HL, and the PS-HL correlation among parents of children with ADHD. Methods: In this cross-sectional and descriptive-correlational study, a total of 70 parents of children with ADHD participated based on inclusion criteria and convenience sampling. Their PS and HL were investigated using the "Socio-Demographic Information Questionnaire (SDIQ)," "Parenting Stress Index, Fourth Edition (PSI-4)," and "Test of Functional Health Literacy in Adults (TOFHLA)." The gathered data were analyzed using SPSS version 26. Results: The disparity in the sociodemographic characteristics of the participants was considerable. The PS among parents of children with ADHD ranged from “moderate to high” (x̄ = 287.51 ± 107.68, P < 0.05), and their HL ranged from “borderline to sufficient” (x̄ = 73.76 ± 14.02, P < 0.05). Additionally, there was a significant (P = 0.02) but not very strong inverse correlation (- 0.268) between PS and HL among these parents. The correlations obtained between "demographic characteristics with PS and HL" were varied. Conclusions: Based on the results, Iranian parents of children with ADHD demonstrated a “relatively sufficient” level of HL and a “considerable” level of PS. There was a significant, yet not very strong inverse correlation observed between PS and HL among the participants. However, it is important to acknowledge that the obtained frequency, severity, and correlation of these variables were influenced by various demographic inequalities among the participants.

Published: July 2024

Background: Inter-observer variability among pathologists' reports has been a significant challenge in the diagnosis of diseases, especially cancers. Designing a grading system with minimal inter-observer variability can help achieve more accurate diagnoses. Objectives: We aimed to determine whether the grading system proposed by Cheng and colleagues (Cheng’s grading system) can improve inter-observer variability among pathologists in grading urothelial cancer, compared with the World Health Organization (WHO) grading system (2004/2016). Methods: Four pathologists examined all slides of bladder biopsy samples diagnosed as urothelial carcinoma, available in the archives of Imam Reza Hospital, Mashhad, Iran, from 2019 to 2022. Each pathologist reported the tumor grade based on both grading systems, independently of previous answers or the reports of their colleagues. Results: Of 132 samples, the majority were from men (84.1%); the mean age of patients was 66.56±11.31 years. For low and high grades of the WHO system and grade II in Cheng’s grading system, κ = 0.602; agreement was lower for grade III (κ = 0.439) and higher for grade IV (κ = 0.690) compared with the WHO grading system. There was significant agreement among the pathologists in all tumor characteristics, with excellent agreement for stromal invasion (κ = 0.790) and muscular invasion (κ = 0.884), fair to good agreement for WHO 2004/2016 grading (κ = 0.602) and Cheng’s grading (κ = 0.574) overall, and poor agreement for tumor heterogeneity (κ = 0.360). Conclusions: Both grading systems demonstrated favorable agreement among pathologists, without significant differences between the two systems. These results confirm the appropriateness of both grading systems.
The Influence of Visual Attributes in Packaging Design on Generation Z's Dessert Snack Purchasing Decision
Authors: Belliza Azka , Kusumawati Nurrani
Published: July 2024

This research explores the influence of packaging design on the purchasing decisions of Generation Z consumers, focusing on dessert snack products. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the extent to which each visual element of a product's packaging influences the purchasing decisions of Generation Z consumers. A further aim is to identify specific preferences for each visual element in food packaging design that Generation Z. favors. In order to achieve these objectives, a mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative surveys with 422 respondents and qualitative interviews with 12 participants, all from Generation Z. The results reveal that visual appeal significantly influences purchasing decisions, primarily through the mediating variable of perceived quality. Individual elements such as appealing color combinations and unique typography enhance perceived quality, driving purchasing decisions. Illustrations on the packaging also significantly impact purchase decisions. The choice of packaging material, especially eco-friendly options, positively affects perceived quality, while the shape and size of packaging influence perceptions of practicality and quality. While some visual elements, like product photography and shape, show small influences and do not directly influence purchase decisions, they contribute to the packaging's overall attractiveness and perceived quality. These findings suggest that effective packaging design tailored to the visual preferences of Generation Z can enhance the marketability of dessert snack products. However, the study has limitations, including its focus on a specific product category and demographic group, which may not generalize to other contexts. Future research could explore the influence of packaging design on different consumer groups and product categories. The study provides insights for marketers and designers aiming to capture the attention of Generation Z consumers through strategic packaging design.

Published: July 2024

Effective leadership is crucial for aligning human capital with business objectives, thereby enhancing employee performance and organizational productivity. In the competitive pet health industry, companies like Pet&Co rely heavily on strong leadership competencies to achieve success. This study examines the impact of leadership competencies on Pet&Co's performance, focusing on issues such as unclear guidance, lack of direction, and inadequate task monitoring by the CEO. It identifies three core competencies: intrapersonal, interpersonal, and cognitive. Intrapersonal competencies, including self-awareness and self-management, are essential for personal development and effective leadership. Interpersonal skills, such as communication and empathy, are key to fostering collaboration and motivation within the team. Cognitive competencies, such as strategic thinking and decision-making, are vital for navigating complex business scenarios and driving organizational success. Utilizing qualitative methods, including interviews and observations, the study reveals that intrapersonal competencies are critical for aligning actions with organizational goals, although the CEO's low self-motivation presents a challenge. Interpersonal competencies are shown to enhance team morale and productivity, while cognitive competencies are necessary for effective strategic planning despite existing gaps in vision and innovation. The study underscores the importance of recognizing and aligning leadership competencies with strategic goals to improve business performance. Overall, the article provides valuable insights into the role of leadership competencies in enhancing organizational performance and is considered suitable for acceptance.

Published: July 2024

Introduction: Data about the demographic and clinical characteristics of melanoma patients in Turkey is limited. Objective: Data about the demographic and clinical characteristics of melanoma patients in Turkey is limited. We aimed to review the features of patients with primary cutaneous melanoma (PCM) diagnosed and treated in a tertiary referral center. Methods: The medical records of melanoma patients followed up by the Departments of Dermatology and Medical Oncology were retrospectively reviewed. Results: Within the 5-year period, 180 patients had been diagnosed with melanoma. Of all, 158 (87.8%) had PCM, 9 (5%) had mucosal melanoma, 9 (5%) had unknown primary melanoma, and 4 (2.2%) had ocular melanoma. Of 146 patients with PCM, 32.9% had stage I, 28.8% had stage II, 17.8% had stage III, and 20.5% had stage IV disease. The most common subtype was superficial spreading melanoma (38.8%). A statistically significant correlation was found between the patients' Breslow thickness and lymph node involvement, histopathological subtype, and tumor ulceration (p <0.001). Among all PCM patients, those in stage IV had the lowest 5-year survival rate when compared to the other disease stages (p<0.001). Conclusion: Relatively younger age at melanoma diagnosis, frequent presence of thick (>4 mm) tumor, and frequent acral lentiginous subtype are the most remarkable features that suggest the low awareness and knowledge of melanoma in our population.

EĞİTİMDE ÇAĞDAŞ DENETİM MODELLERİ: SANATSAL, KLİNİK VE FARKLILAŞTIRILMIŞ DENETİM
Authors: Arslan Aslı , Ateş Aysel
Published: July 2024

İnsan ilişkilerini temel alan yaklaşımların yükselişiyle beraber, klasik denetim anlayışı denetimin temel unsuru olan örgütsel amaçlardan ne derece sapıldığını tespit etme ve etkili çözümler sunma konusunda eğitim örgütlerinde kendisinden beklenene cevap verememiştir. Klasik denetim yöntemleri ve sonuçları, denetime olumsuz bir algı oluşturmuş ve sadece mevcut durumu tespit etmekle sınırlı kalarak eğitimde etkili bir rol oynamamıştır. Sadece yapısal unsurlara odaklanan klasik denetim anlayışı süreç içinde yerini güvene, öz denetime ve demokratik değerlere dayanan çağdaş denetim modellerine bırakmıştır. Bu çağdaş denetim modelleri kuralların ve prosedürlerin takibinin ötesine geçerek, öğretmenlerin motivasyonunu, iş birliğini, mesleki gelişimini, kendi öğrenmelerinin sorumluluğunu almalarını ve dahası katılımlarını teşvik etmeyi amaçlamıştır. Eğitim örgütlerinde çağdaş denetim anlayışı, örgüt içindeki iletişimi kuvvetlendirmeye, öğretmenlerin sorumluluk hissini artırmaya ve böylece daha etkili bir denetim ve kontrol mekanizması oluşturmaya odaklanmaktadır. Bu yaklaşımın temelinde, öğretmenlerin bağlılık duygusuyla hareket etmeleri ve bireysel gelişimlerine olanak tanınması yatmaktadır. Bu nedenle, çağdaş denetim yaklaşımları, sadece kuralların uygulanmasını değil, aynı zamanda insan faktörünün güçlendirilmesini ve örgüt kültürünün desteklenmesini sağlamaktadır. Eğitim örgütlerinde çağdaş denetim yaklaşımları arasında öne çıkan modellerden olan klinik denetim, farklılaştırılmış denetim ve sanatsal denetim bu araştırmada incelenerek Türkiye'de eğitim örgütlerinde pratikte benimsenen ve uygulanan klasik denetim yaklaşımlarının yerini alabilecek alternatifler olarak ele alınmaya çalışılmıştır.
Skepticism, Religion, and Human Experience
Authors: Mills Ethan ,   Philosophy Documentation Center
Published: July 2024

Vasubandhu’s Twenty Verses (c. 400 CE) and Descartes’s Meditations (1641 CE) each begin by questioning commonsense beliefs about the external world. Yet these texts reach different conclusions: Vasubandhu concludes that human experience is misguided due to the error of subject-object dualism, whereas Descartes restores his faith in human experience via epistemological foundationalism and a reaffirmation of Christianity and commonsense. What might we learn from reading these texts in juxtaposition? Could placing Vasubandhu in dialogue with Descartes be a good way to introduce philosophy teachers and students to the riches of South Asian Buddhist philosophy? How do these two texts guide students toward deeper insights about religion, skepticism, and human experience? What might Vasubandhu and Descartes teach their readers—students and teachers alike—if we were to listen carefully?

Authors: Wafula Godfrey Wekesa , Ouna Tom , Kamiri Hellen
Published: July 2024

Globally, temperature and rainfall play an integral role in the management of solid waste in urban areas. This is because many countries especially, the developing countries conventionally rely on both variables in the management of waste. However, the urban environment faces many threats as a result of challenged waste management practices due to these climate stressors. This research aimed to assess how temporal changes in temperature and rainfall influence solid waste generation.  The study was carried out in Bungoma county urban centres, specifically Bungoma town, Webuye, Kimilili, Kapsokwony, Chwele, and Sirisia townships. The study applied a stratified sampling technique to select the urban and peri-urban centres while random sampling was used to select respondents in residential dwellings, business people, urban residents, and officers from government institutions including public health and environment, water, and natural resources were interviewed. Ancillary data was collected using questionnaires and interview schedules while historical data was obtained to validate observed data. Data was analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics and summarized using tables, charts, and graphs. The findings of the study indicated that rainfall and temperature significantly influenced the generation of solid waste.
Institutional and Governance Practices as Mediating Variables in the Development of Innovation within Clusters
Authors: kamal Imane ,   Faculty of Legal, Economic and Social Sciences ain sbaa Casablanca
Published: July 2024

The globalization of value chains has generated an extreme intensification of competition. Researchers highlight two essential characteristics: innovation and competitiveness. Currently, clustering policy is one of the most used territorial strategies by industrial and technological companies to improve innovation performance levels. The objective of this work is to support the idea of a positive relationship between spatial agglomeration of production activities in the form of a cluster and innovation, conditioned by mediating factors. Specifically, the hypothesis defended is that institutional and governance practices favor the emergence and diffusion of innovation within the cluster. The research question mobilizes several basic theories: location theory to present the structural determinants of innovation in clusters, institutional theory to legitimize cluster interactions, organizational theory to present governance practices essential for good management of interactions in favor of innovation, and innovation theories. The field of study chosen was the emergence of the clustering policy in Morocco, whose main objective is to help set up innovative projects. This thesis work is guided by the main problem of whether concrete institutional and governance practices implemented by the clusters contribute to innovation. Data collected from a sample of companies from three Moroccan clusters are analyzed using the structural equation method (PLS-SEM). The empirical results highlight the existence of a positive relationship between industrial cluster membership and innovation performance, reinforced by the mediating role of institutional practices and the existence of governance unity.

Sby granted the application, while Stipulation Number 71/Pdt.P/2017/PN. Bla did not grant it. The type of research used is normative legal research with a case approach and comparative approach. The result of Stipulation Number 916/Pdt.P/2022/PN. Sby accommodates human rights with the implementation of natural rights that are part of the universality of human rights, on the grounds of the right to freedom of religion and family. The Stipulation Number 71/Pdt.P/2017/PN. Bla contains the substance of human rights in the realm of cultural relativity, through factual considerations from the interpretation of judges and religious leaders regarding the prohibition of interfaith marriages. Therefore, although outwardly the two are contradictory, they actually still accommodate the substance of human rights in their respective perspectives. This research contributes to opening up 'opportunities' for a broader interpretation of the fulfillment of human rights, by looking at the existence of human rights in the two stipulations above.
Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menggali substansi hak asasi manusia dalam dua hasil penetapan permohonan pencatatan perkawinan beda agama di Pengadilan Negeri. Penetapan Nomor 916/Pdt.P/2022/PN. Sby mengabulkan permohonan tersebut, sedangkan Penetapan Nomor 71/Pdt.P/2017/PN. Bla tidak mengabulkan. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian hukum normatif dengan pendekatan kasus (case approach) dan perbandingan (comparative approach). Hasil Penetapan Nomor 916/Pdt.P/2022/PN. Sby mengakomodasi hak asasi manusia dengan implementasi hak kodrati yang menjadi bagian dari universalitas HAM, dengan alasan hak kebebasan beragama dan berkeluarga. Adapun Penetapan Nomor 71/Pdt.P/2017/PN. Bla mengandung substansi HAM dalam ranah relativitas budaya, melalui pertimbangan faktual dari interpretasi hakim dan tokoh agama mengenai pelarangan pernikahan beda agama. Oleh karena itu, meskipun secara zahir keduanya bertentangan, akan tetapi sejatinya tetap mengakomodasi substansi HAM dalam perspektif masing-masing. Penelitian ini berkontribusi untuk membuka ‘peluang’ interpretasi pemenuhan hak asasi manusia secara lebih luas, dengan melihat eksistensi hak asasi manusia dalam dua penetapan di atas.

Inherited children have their own problems when examined normatively in terms of inheritance. Juridical law states that rights are equalized between inherited children and heirs. In contrast to both, customary norms actually equalize the share of inherited assets. This is where the role of mediation is as a media consultant and legal mediator who weighs normative, juridical and customary law so that they can find a middle way between these things. This research uses a normative, juridical and economic approach using literature study. The aim of this research is to examine the role of mediation in dealing with customary inheritance which equalizes between inherited children and heirs, then followed by the flow of mediation, both the flow of registration and the costs incurred. There is a continuity between normative, juridical and customary issues related to inheritance, namely the existence of an element of blessing in the distribution of inheritance to heirs, mediation as a middle way that connects these three problems with the flow of registration and the amount of costs incurred.
[Abstrak: Anak bawaan memiliki problem tersendiri apabila ditelisik secara normatif dalam hal kewarisan, hukum yuridis mengatakan penyamarataan hak antara anak bawaan dengan ahli waris, berbeda dengan keduanya norma adat justru menyamaratakan bagian harta tinggalan. Disinilah peran mediasi sebagai media konsultan dan penengah hukum yang menimbang antara hukum normatif, yuridis dan adat sehingga dapat menemukan jalan tengah diantara hal tersebut. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan normatif, yuridis, dan ekonomis dengan menggunakan studi kepustakaan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk meneliti terkait peran mediasi dalam menyikapi kewarisan adat yang menyamaratakan antara anak bawaan dengan ahli waris, kemudian disusul dengan alur mediasi baik itu alur pendaftaran, dan biaya yang dikeluarkan. Terdapat tali kesinambungan antara normatif, yuridis, dan adat terkait kewarisan yakni adanya unsur ridho dari pembagian waris kepada ahli waris, mediasi sebagai jalan tengah yang menghubungakan ketiga problem tersebut memiliki alur pedaftaran dan besaran biaya yang dikeluarkan.]
