Authors: Hussain Sajad , Rahila  , Khan Rahmat Ali
Published: September 2022

OBJECTIVES
The purpose of this study was to identify the perceptions of nursing students regarding learning-enhancing factors of teachers’ attitudes and behavior.
METHODOLOGY
 A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted using a convenient sampling technique. Data were collected through a questionnaire from 125 nursing students at two public sector nursing colleges in Peshawar, Pakistan. Ethics approval was obtained from Institutional Review Board. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 20.
RESULTS
 Out of the total selected sample, 31 participants were males and 94 were females. The mean age of respondents was 30 years. All the participants agreed that the attitude and behavior of teachers affected students learning. The most enhancing factors for the learning of nursing students were “Giving value to teaching”, “Motivation towards teaching”, “Accept Responsibility for the lecture”, “Having good knowledge of the subject matter”, and “Confidence in delivering the lecture”, “Interest in the lecture”, “Regular and punctual for class”, “Use Polite Language to students” etc.: While, “being suspicious about students success”, “Extra Expectation from students”, “Favoritism in students”, “Late for class”, “Punishing the students”, etc.: were regarded as not enhancing factors.  
CONCLUSION
The nursing students were not fully satisfied with the nursing institutional environment. So, the teacher must adopt all those attitudinal and behavioral parameters which were perceived enhancing factors and avoid others.

Skilled Nursing Facilities: The Missing Pillars of the Health Care System in Pakistan
Authors: Afsha Awal Khan
Published: September 2022

The recent COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the loopholes in the health care system across the world. In developing countries, expenditure on health care is comparatively very low and the health care system is continuously under experiment, the concept of managed health care is still a dream.1 Burden is always in tertiary health care settings. In Pakistan, major teaching hospitals serve as primary and secondary healthcare facilities as primary healthcare centers are not fully functional. Consequently, tertiary hospitals always have a shortage of beds for acute conditions because it takes patients from one end and is not able to release patients at a similar rate.2
The major reason for this is a missing pillar called ‘skilled nursing facility or ‘nursing homes. A skilled nursing facility can accommodate patients who are in transition of care and do not require hospitalization as well as are not able to be shifted to homes safely. Therefore, governments should not only functionalize primary and secondary health services to decrease admissions rates in tertiary care hospitals3 but should also focus on the development of skilled nursing facilities and nursing homes. This will ease the transition of care from hospital to home, it will also decrease the length of stay and improve bed occupancy in acute care settings.4
According to the Pakistan Nursing Council (Amendment) Act, 2020, the scope of services for specialized nurses and Advanced Nurse Practitioners is extended to prescription with an advanced level of education and competence. Master qualified Nurses with advanced specialized patient management knowledge and skills can lead and run nursing homes or skilled nursing facilities. Evidence suggests that the contribution of nurses in advanced practice in specialized care settings not only increases the level of patient satisfaction with care and treatment, but it also decreases the average length of stay, and mortality rate.5 The cost of skilled nursing homes as compared to acute hospital beds is less than thirty per cent which means it may positively affect health care economics along with the provision of quality and safe care.6

Independent Skeletal Actions of Pituitary Hormones
Authors: Kim Se-Min , Sultana Farhath , Korkmaz Funda , Lizneva Daria , Yuen Tony , Zaidi Mone
Published: September 2022

Over the past years, pituitary hormones and their receptors have been shown to have non-traditional actions that allow them to bypass the hypothalamus-pituitary-effector glands axis. Bone cells—osteoblasts and osteoclasts—express receptors for growth hormone, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), adrenocorticotrophic hormone (ACTH), prolactin, oxytocin, and vasopressin. Independent skeletal actions of pituitary hormones on bone have been studied using genetically modified mice with haploinsufficiency and by activating or inactivating the receptors pharmacologically, without altering systemic effector hormone levels. On another front, the discovery of a TSH variant (TSH-βv) in immune cells in the bone marrow and skeletal action of FSHβ through tumor necrosis factor α provides new insights underscoring the integrated physiology of bone-immune-endocrine axis. Here we discuss the interaction of each pituitary hormone with bone and the potential it holds in understanding bone physiology and as a therapeutic target.
Strengthening monetary policy and managing inflation expectations in Ukraine in conditions of maritime
Authors: Okhrymenko Iryna , Biloshapka Viktoria
Published: September 2022

The article considers the current problem of strengthening monetary policy in Ukraine. Competent monetary measures of the NBU in the first months of the war ensured the smooth functioning of the banking system and payments in the economy. Fixing the exchange rate was ensured by currency restrictions, as well as foreign exchange interventions. The gradual adaptation of Ukraine's economy to the war and the replacement of psychological shock by economic logic require a change in approaches to monetary policy.

The article substantiates the need to strengthen the monetary policy of the NBU. Strengthening the monetary policy of the NBU is aimed at compressing the money supply, and its effectiveness depends on the coordination of measures with the government.

The way in which inflation expectations are formed influences the consequences of monetary policy. Therefore, the NBU, which aims at price stability, should take into account the inflation expectations of economic agents when planning monetary measures.

Adaptive and rational hypotheses of inflation expectations are estimated. It is established that the reasons for the differences in the mechanisms of inflation expectations are explained by rational expectations and ways of disseminating information. It is concluded that the main focus in assessing monetary policy is to determine the characteristics of the factors shaping inflation expectations in Ukraine. The NBU can increase the effectiveness of monetary policy by developing and implementing measures to strengthen the impact on inflation expectations of economic agents.

Authors: Mickiewicz Bartosz , Volkava Katsiaryna
Published: September 2022

The assessment of economic potential is a complex characteristic of the results of production activities, as it is formed under the influence of many internal and external factors, and it defines the state and use of resources of agro-food sector companies. It makes possible determining the efficiency of the use of economic potential, company competitiveness, identifying reserves and promptly making appropriate management decisions on their rational use. The total economic potential of a company structurally consists of many types, components of potential, closely interconnected and aimed at achieving the company’s goals. Dedicated, systematic study of the total potential of a company or its individual elements is the basis for making effective management decisions and sustainable development of the company. Taking into account modern conditions and factors, methods for analyzing and evaluating the total economic potential of the agro-food sector have been studied, an appropriate theoretical and methodological base has been developed and their role in management based on a systematic approach has been substantiated. A systematic approach to the concept of “total economic potential of companies” allows us to define it as a complex, dynamic, multi-structural system that has certain patterns of development. It should be considered as a system with certain levels, areas and structural elements that determine the integrity of the total potential of the enterprise, due to the interdependence and interconnection of the available opportunities, the implementation of which is aimed at achieving goals based on the systemic interaction of the components of the internal environment of the company.
Implementation of the risk appetite concept in the diagnosis of financial risks and threats to the economic security of enterprises of the viticulture and wine industry of Ukraine
Authors: Zhdanova Liudmyla
Published: September 2022

The article reviews the essence of the concept of "risk appetite", which is a modern business concept that significantly increases the effectiveness of economic security management of an economic entity. The author of the article explores interrelated concepts: risk, threat, risk appetite, risk tolerance, as well as risk capacity in the context of ensuring the economic security of enterprises of the viticulture and wine industry. The article highlights the fact that the cultivation of grapes and the production of wine is a type of business with a high share of risks both due to the impact of natural phenomena that pose threats to the production of grapes of a certain quality, and a significant level of administrative burden in the field of state regulation. Therefore, economic entities involved in viticulture and wine-making are constantly exposed to threats and their activities are an object of economic security. The article focuses on the expediency of using risk appetite in managing risks and threats to the activities of agricultural sector. The differences between risk capacity, risk appetite and risk tolerance are determined. Attention is focused on the fact that risk appetite is determined depending on the strategic goals of the enterprise. These goals may determine the achievement of specific financial indicators, compliance with financial regulations and other indicators of the activity of wine industry entities. The author's vision of the definition of risk appetite and its management in the framework of ensuring the economic security of enterprises is proposed.
A Mass–Magnitude Relation for Low-mass Stars Based on Dynamical Measurements of Thousands of Binary Star Systems
Authors: Giovinazzi Mark R. , Blake Cullen H.
Published: September 2022

Stellar mass is a fundamental parameter that is key to our understanding of stellar formation and evolution, as well as the characterization of nearby exoplanet companions. Historically, stellar masses have been derived from long-term observations of visual or spectroscopic binary star systems. While advances in high-resolution imaging have enabled observations of systems with shorter orbital periods, measurements of stellar masses remain challenging, and relatively few have been precisely measured. We present a new statistical approach to measuring masses for populations of stars. Using Gaia astrometry, we analyze the relative orbital motion of >3800 wide binary systems comprising low-mass stars to establish a mass–magnitude relation in the Gaia G
RP band spanning the absolute magnitude range 14.5 >

M

G

RP

> 4.0, corresponding to a mass range of 0.08 M
⊙ ≲ M ≲ 1.0 M
⊙. This relation is directly applicable to >30 million stars in the Gaia catalog. Based on comparison to existing mass–magnitude relations calibrated for K

s
magnitudes from the Two Micron All Sky Survey, we estimate that the internal precision of our mass estimates is ∼10%. We use this relation to estimate masses for a volume-limited sample of ∼18,200 stars within 50 pc of the Sun and the present-day field mass function for stars with M ≲ 1.0 M
⊙, which we find peaks at 0.16 M
⊙. We investigate a volume-limited sample of wide binary systems with early-K dwarf primaries, complete for binary mass ratios q > 0.2, and measure the distribution of q at separations >100 au. We find that our distribution of q is not uniform, rather decreasing toward q = 1.0.
Effects of Hydrogen versus Helium on Electromagnetic Black Hole Observables
Authors: Wong George N. , Gammie Charles F.
Published: September 2022

The centers of our Galaxy and the nearby Messier 87 are known to contain supermassive black holes, which support accretion flows that radiate across the electromagnetic spectrum. Although the composition of the accreting gas is unknown, it is likely a mix of ionized hydrogen and helium. We use a simple analytic model and a suite of numerical general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic accretion simulations to study how polarimetric images and spectral energy distributions of the source are influenced by the hydrogen/helium content of the accreting matter. We aim to identify general trends rather than make quantitatively precise predictions, since it is not possible to fully explore the parameter space of accretion models. If the ion-to-electron temperature ratio is fixed, then increasing the helium fraction increases the gas temperature; to match the observational flux density constraints, the number density of electrons and magnetic field strengths must therefore decrease. In our numerical simulations, emission shifts from regions of low to high plasma β—both altering the morphology of the image and decreasing the variability of the light curve—especially in strongly magnetized models with emission close to the midplane. In polarized images, we find that the model gas composition influences the degree to which linear polarization is (de)scrambled and therefore affects estimates for the resolved linear polarization fraction. We also find that the spectra of helium-composition flows peak at higher frequencies and exhibit higher luminosities. We conclude that gas composition may play an important role in predictive models for black hole accretion.

The spectral lag features in gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been widely used to investigate possible Lorentz invariance violation (LIV). However, these constraints could depend on the unknown source-intrinsic time delays in different energy bands. Biesiada & Piórkowska theoretically proposed that gravitational lensing time delays in a strongly lensed GRB can become a tool for testing LIV free from the intrinsic time lag problem. Recently GRB 950830 and GRB 200716C have been proposed to be lensed by an intermediate-mass black hole. They should still be considered as candidates of strongly lensed bursts, since no angular offset (i.e., the evidence for multiple images) was detected, but only a double peak structure in the light curve. The redshift of the burst z

have not been measured in either case; hence we assumed a reasonable guess of z

s
= 2.0 for GRB 950830 and z

s
= 0.348 for GRB 200716C. Bearing all this in mind, we attempted to constrain LIV theories in a prospective way based on the two GRBs by considering time delays between two pulses in different energy channels. By directly fitting the time delay data of GRBs 950830 and 200716C we obtained the following limits on LIV energy scale: E
QG,1 ≥ 3.2 × 109 GeV and E
QG,1 ≥ 6.3 × 109 GeV, respectively. Sensitivity analysis regarding the (unknown) redshifts leads to the most conservative estimate, E
QG,1 ≥ 1.5 × 108 GeV for GRB 950830 and E
QG,1 ≥ 4.8 × 108 GeV for GRB 200716C, when they would be located at z

X-Ray Image Authentication Scheme Using SLT and Contourlet Transform for Modern Healthcare System
Authors: Pallaw Vijay Krishna , Singh Kamred Udham
Published: September 2022

The network’s convenience has created a copyright dilemma for some multimedia works. Nowadays, every healthcare system relies on digital medical images for diagnosis. These medical images are transmitted through communication channels, so there is a risk of tampering and copyright violation. A digital watermarking system can ensure and guarantee that tampering and copyright violation are prevented. This study presents a nonblind digital watermarking approach to X-ray medical images based on Contourlet transform (C.T.) and Slantlet Transform (SLT). Since the two-dimensional signals are represented flexibly by contourlet transforms, the contour plot can be used efficiently to represent curves and smooth contours. At the same time, the SLT has better time-localization & smoothness properties. The maximum energy of an image is conceived in the LL band if SLT transform are employed. Therefore, the LL band is used to entrench the watermark. The additive quantization method has been used to entrench the watermark. The efficiency of our scheme is assessed by different quality parameters and compared with several existing schemes. The results of the experiment show that the proposed scheme performs better and has the ability to resist several attacks.
English Teaching in Artificial Intelligence-based Higher Vocational Education Using Machine Learning Techniques for Students’ Feedback Analysis and Course Selection Recommendation
Authors: Ma Xin
Published: September 2022

Higher vocational education is a self-contained method of higher education that is aligned with global productivity and economic development. Its goal is to develop talented workers who contribute significantly to the economy and industry. Teaching analysis, teaching strategy, teaching practice, and assessment are all part of the course design process in high vocational education. Teaching assessment is one of the most effective methods for improving the quality of course teaching among teaching processes. This research proposes novel techniques in English teaching based on artificial intelligence for course selection based on students' feedback. Here, the dataset has been collected based on the students’ feedback on courses for Higher Vocational Education in English teaching. This dataset has been processed to remove invalid data, missing values, and noise. The processed data features have been dimensionality reduction integrated with K-means neural network. And the extracted features have been classified with higher accuracy using recursive elimination-based convolutional neural network. Based on this feedback data classification, recommendation for courses in Higher Vocational Education in English teaching has been suggested. The experimental analysis shows various students' feedback dataset validation and training in terms of accuracy of 96%, precision of 92%, recall of 93%, RMSE of 68%, and computational time of 65%.
Natural Language Enhancement for English Teaching Using Character-Level Recurrent Neural Network with Back Propagation Neural Network based Classification by Deep Learning Architectures
Authors: Yang Zhiling
Published: September 2022

Natural Language Processing (NLP) is an efficient method for enhancing educational outcomes. In educational settings, implementing NLP entails starting the learning process through natural acquisition. English teaching and learning have received increased attention from the relevant education departments as an integral aspect of the new curriculum reform. The environment of English teaching and learning is undergoing extraordinary changes as a result of the constant improvement and extension of teaching level and scale, as well as the growth of Internet information technology. As a result, the current research aims to look into techniques for efficiently using AI (artificial intelligence) apps to teach and learn English from the perspective of university students. This research can measure the levels as well as effectiveness of the employment of AI applications for teaching English based on deep learning techniques. There, the NLP based language enhancement has been carried out using Character-level recurrent neural network with back Propagation neural network (Cha_RNN_BPNN) based classification. With the help of this DL (deep learning) technique, it is possible to use AI methods to assist teachers in analysing and diagnosing students' English learning behaviour, replacing teachers in part to answer students' questions in a timely manner, and automatically grading assignments during the English teaching process. Experimental analysis shows Word Perplexity, Flesch-Kincaid (F-K) Grade Level for Readability, Cosine Similarity for Semantic Coherence, gradient change of NN, validation accuracy, and training accuracy of the proposed technique.

Stability of nonlinear population systems with individual scale and migration
Authors: Gong Wei , Wang Zhanping
Published: September 2022

In this paper, we study the stability of a nonlinear population system with a weighted total size of scale structure and migration in a polluted environment, where fertility and mortality depend on the density in different ways. We first prove the existence and uniqueness of the equilibrium point via a contraction mapping and give the expression for the equilibrium point. Some conditions for asymptotic stability and instability are presented by means of a characteristic equation. When the effect of density restriction on mortality is not considered, the threshold value of equilibrium stability can be obtained as $ \Lambda = 0. $ When $ \Lambda < 0, $ the equilibrium is asymptotically stable, and when $ \Lambda > 0, $ the equilibrium is unstable. In addition, the upwind difference method is used to discrete the model, and two examples are given to show the evolution of species.
Zur Verschränkung von Politik, Natur und Ästhetik in Peter Handkes Jugoslawien-Texten und Saša Stanišićs Herkunft
Authors: Brokoff Jürgen , Kandic Djordje
Published: September 2022

Die Frage, welche Literatur prämiert und öffentlich gewürdigt werden soll, wurde im Herbst 2019 kontrovers diskutiert. Dies zeigt die Verleihung des Literaturnobelpreises an Peter Handke, die wegen seiner in den neunziger Jahren publizierten Jugoslawien-Texte von einem Teil der Öffentlichkeit als unzulässig und inopportun empfunden wurde. Dabei kam es zu einer signifikanten Verschiebung der lange andauernden Diskussion um Handke, als Saša Stanišić zeitgleich den Deutschen Buchpreis für seinen Roman „Herkunft“ erhielt. Der folgende Beitrag geht den poetologischen Differenzen zwischen Handkes Jugoslawien-Texten und Stanišićs Roman nach und nimmt deren romantisierende Naturpassagen in den Blick. Da Handke und Stanišić die bosnische Naturlandschaft beschreiben und sie implizit zugleich in Bezug zum Jugoslawien-Krieg setzen, treten im Rahmen einer vergleichenden Untersuchung die unterschiedlichen Ansprüche an den poetischen Text hervor. Es wird deutlich, dass bei Handke und Stanišić zwei entgegengesetzte Mechanismen am Werk sind: Während Handke die Naturschilderungen von der Katastrophe des Krieges freizuhalten sucht und sie mit dem Ziel einer Versöhnung ausblendet, gibt es bei Stanišić angesichts der Kriegsereignisse keinen Raum – auch keinen Naturraum mehr –, in dem die Verdeckung des kollektiven Traumas möglich wäre.
