EDUCATION POLICY AND EFFECTIVENESS OF THE PLAGIARISM DETECTION SYSTEM
Authors: TSERTSVADZE VANO , HURTSIA LALI
Published: January 2021

In 2018, 13 Georgian Universities have implemented Plagiarism Detection and Prevention Program (PDPP) within the framework of the EU-supported project. This process establishes favorable conditions for the study of students’ behavior, incentives and the use of plagiarism in pre-PDPP era and after its implementation. To prove the significance impact of the PDPP on academic honesty and to assess the system for effectiveness we use statistical tests. The experience observed in western universities confirms that the existence of PDPP is correlated with the reduction of plagiarism. Though, the effective application of PDPP entirely depends on the efforts of Georgian universities to pursue anti-plagiary policy. Along with the policy analysis, plagiarism perceptions and attitudes have been studied in accordance with historical and cultural environment. The research also analyses the study in the paradigm of risk and benefit from students point of a view as a decision-making process (weighing probability of detection and penalty size and positive mark).

This research demonstrates that philanthropic activity is a predictor of firm value through financial performance. The population used is all non-financial companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (BEI) for the 2015-2018 period. The number of samples is 101 companies each year, which were selected by purposive sampling method. The results of this study indicate that philanthropy has a significant effect on financial performance but not significant on firm value. However, another finding reveals that financial performance has a significant effect on firm value. Based on Sobel's test results, it shows that financial performance mediates the effect of philanthropy on firm value.

QUANTITATIVE EVALUATION OF THE POSSIBILITY OF EUROPEAN INTEGRATION OF POST-SOVIET COUNTRIES
Authors: I. Pavlenko , V. Salli
Published: January 2021

The subject of this article is the analysis of integration processes at an interstate level and within individual business groups, as well as the economic links of all participants in market relations which provide real opportunities for a more intensive movement of capital into new, highly efficient, at the same time more risky markets. The aim is to explain the principles of re-evaluating the investment attractiveness and the level of safety of many quite cost-effective capital investment options. The effectiveness of the decision made will depend on which of the possible situations in the external environment will actually take place. Fundamental to this approach is the ability
to make the most out of the resources that the country possess - minerals. infrastructure, labor resources, etc., since ultimately this will determine the degree of its efficiency, its internal order. The rate of the stability of the system, the expectedness and predictability of its development are characterized by the concept of entropy. The principal of this approach is that the following is used as initial data: the volumes of transit traffic, the capacities of the enterprises being created, the volumes of the alienated territories. To adjust the parameters, the indicators related to the creation
of new jobs and labor productivity for each analyzed investment program were used. At the same time, the investment risk is measured by the absolute value of possible losses in monetary terms. Accordingly, options for the development of external conditions are assigned, alternatives for tackling an issue are set and the effectiveness of each alternative and risks in various conditions should be determined. An important aspect of this approach is the ability to identify areas of high and absolute risk. This study confirms the following hypothesis. The potential for an export and raw material development of the economies of the post-Soviet countries has been exhausted, nevertheless, they have the opportunity to obtain strategic benefits from the current situation based on the stable world demand for provision, creating conditions for the rational directing resources into promising industries with the aim of developing industrial and post-industrial sectors in the country’s economy.

An analysis of the German development bank’s business model indicates that KfW does not compete with commercial banks that are partners for it. That is, his business is based on the fundamental principle of subsidiarity. Thus, the National Development Bank helps to eliminate the shortcomings of the market mechanism, and among the priorities is the support of small and medium-sized businesses. Despite the global nature of its activities, 84% of the bank’s operations account for the national economy, and a significant part of international projects is aimed primarily at supporting the economic interests of the national producer. With very few exceptions, such as municipal financing, KfW does not interact with the client directly, but supports intermediary banks and assumes risks by offering financing that would not
be available or at least not provided in the absence of such a development bank. conditions. KfW loans complement banks’ loan offers and make possible projects that would not have been implemented without this contribution. The example of Germany makes it clear what exactly should be an acceptable national development bank for Ukraine: such an institution has clear mandates, well managed to perform its functions, to achieve maximum impact on development, not profit, but providing a sufficient profit margin for investment attractiveness, coverage possible losses and expansion of operations. Such an institution is able to ensure the independence of national economic policy. (industrial, investment, infrastructure and financial inclusion). The key challenge is the ability of the national development bank to work effectively with private financial institutions and investors, regional and multilateral

Influence of electric current characteristics of the formation process on the properties of PEO-coatings, obtained on MA8 magnesium alloy in potentiodynamic mode
Authors: СУЧКОВ С.Н.
Published: January 2021

Установлено, что в потенциодинамическом режиме формирования покрытий методом плазменного электролитического оксидирования (ПЭО) электрохимические и морфологические свойства получаемых поверхностей можно регулировать, используя максимальную плотность тока. Получены зависимости данной величины от таких параметров, как максимальное значение и скорость изменения напряжения, а также от размеров оксидируемого изделия. Исследована зависимость защитных свойств ПЭО-покрытий, получаемых на магниевом сплаве МА8, от максимальной плотности тока формирования. Проведены морфологические и электрохимические исследования полученных гетерооксидных слоев с целью выявления корреляции свойств покрытий с плотностью тока формирования. Методами сканирующей электронной микроскопии и потенциодинамической поляризации изучены основные защитные свойства ПЭО-покрытий. Результаты свидетельствуют об увеличении толщины и пористости покрытий при росте значений плотности тока формирования. Показано, что при переходе от низких (2 мА/мм2) к высоким (до 12 мА/мм2) максимальным значениям плотности тока поляризационное сопротивление имеет максимум в области значения 4 мА/мм2, что свидетельствует об оптимальном режиме формирования ПЭО-покрытий с высокими барьерными свойствами.

It is established that in the potentiodynamic coating-formation mode by plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO), the electrochemical and morphological properties of the resulting surfaces can be adjusted using the maximum current density. In this paper, the dependences of this value on such parameters as the maximum value and the rate of voltage change, as well as on the size of the oxidized product are obtained. The dependence of the protective properties of PEO-coatings obtained on magnesium alloy MA8 on the maximum density of the formation current is studied. Morphological and electrochemical studies of the obtained heteroxide layers were performed in order to identify the correlation of the coating properties with the density of the formation current. The main protective properties of PEO-coatings have been studied using scanning electron microscopy and potentiodynamic polarization. The results obtained indicate an increase in the thickness and porosity of coatings with an increase in the values of density of the formation current. It is shown that during the transition from low (2 mA/mm2) to high (up to 12 mA/mm2) maximum values of the current density, the polarization resistance has a maximum in range of 4 mA/mm2, which indicates the optimal mode of formation of PEO coatings with high barrier properties.
ABOUT THE USE OF NON-LINEAR SOUND SCATTERING FOR ESTIMATING THE OFFSHORE GAS FLARES STRUCTURE AND LENGTH COMPOSITION
Authors: Буланов В.А. , Корсков И.В. , Соседко Е.В.
Published: January 2021

Новые объекты в океане, подводные газовые факелы (ГФ), образованные газовыми пузырьками, выходящими из дна моря, повсеместно встречаются в районах выброса газов как из толщи донных осадков в различных районах океана, так и в районах выгрузки газа при таянии вечной мерзлоты в арктических морях, и к ним проявляется все больше внимания. Стандартное применение рассеяния звука позволяет обнаружить наличие ГФ в море, но не позволяет в полной мере корректно оценить функцию распределения пузырьков по размерам в факеле и поэтому возникают неопределенности с оценкой мощности выброса газов из моря. Обсуждаются возможности использования метода нестационарного и нелинейного рассеяния звука для получения информации о структуре и динамике подводных газовых факелов, образованных выходом газа из морского дна. Нелинейное рассеяние звука обусловлено высокой нелинейностью пузырьковых структур в воде. Нестационарное рассеяние звука возникает вследствие переходных процессов раскачки пузырьков под действием акустических импульсов, и оно ранее использовалось для изучения распределения пузырьков в приповерхностных слоях морской воды. В работе показано, что применение нелинейного нестационарного рассеяния на встречных пучках позволит проводить дистанционную спектроскопию пузырьков в газовых факелах и проводить корректные оценки газосодержания в факелах.

New objects in the ocean, underwater gas flares (GF) formed by gas bubbles emerging from the sea floor, are ubiquitous in areas where gases are released from the bottom sediments in various areas of the ocean, and in areas where gas is discharged during permafrost melting in the Arctic seas, and they are receiving increasing attention. The standard application of sound scattering allows detecting the presence of GF in the sea, but does not allow us to fully correctly estimate the bubble size distribution function in the flare, and therefore there are uncertainties with the estimation of the power of gas emission from the sea. The possibilities of using the method of non-stationary and nonlinear sound scattering to obtain information about the structure and dynamics of underwater gas flares formed by gas escaping from the sea floor are discussed. Nonlinear sound scattering is caused by the high nonlinearity of bubble structures in water. Non-stationary sound scattering occurs due to transient processes of bubble swinging under the action of acoustic pulses, and it was previously used to study the distribution of bubbles in near-surface layers of seawater. It is shown that the use of nonlinear non-stationary scattering on colliding beams will allow remote spectroscopy of bubbles in gas flares and correct estimates of the gas content in the flares.

В этой работе продемонстрированы возможности оптических наблюдений со спутников Sentinel-2, 3 для изучения связанных физических и биологических процессов в поверхностном слое океане во время интенсивного осеннего цветения фитопланктона у юго-восточного побережья Камчатки в сентябре 2020 г. В Авачинском заливе цветение водорослей проявлялось в виде областей с высокой концентрацией хлорофилла-а, придавая морской поверхности соответствующий темно-зеленый оттенок. На композитном изображении с разрешением 10 м из-за выраженных спектральных различий на морской поверхности выделялись скопления водорослей, организованные в сложные системы мезомасштабных и субмезомасштабных взаимодействующих вихревых структур. По данным реанализа ERA5 установлено, что среднемесячная температура поверхности океана (ТПО) акватории Авачинского залива в сентябре 2020 г. показала положительную аномалию с максимумом ТПО (12.0°С) за последние 42 года при климатической норме 10.4°С. Мы допускаем, что при сохранении тенденции роста в ближайшие годы этот максимум будет превышен.

The paper demonstrates the possibilities of optical observations from the satellites Sentinel-2, 3 for studying linked physical and biological processes in the ocean's surface layer. The specific example of using an observation system for surveillance over intense autumn-flowering of phytoplankton near Kamchatka's southeast shore in September 2020 is considered. In Avachinsky Bay, the microalgae flowering manifested as areas with high chlorophyll-a concentration, coloring the sea surface into the corresponding dark green shade. On a composite image with a resolution of 10 m, significant spectral differences on the sea surface highlighted conglomerates of algae organized in complex systems of mesoscale and submesoscale interacting vortex structures. According to ERA5 reanalysis, it was found that the average monthly sea-surface temperature in Avachinsky Bay in September 2020 demonstrated a positive anomaly with a maximum (12,0° C) over the past 42 years with a climate normal of 10,4° C. It is assumed that this maximum will be surpassed if the current trends continue.

Purpose: To identify the MRI-hallmarks of liver metastatic neuroendocrine tumors (mNETs) with different localization of primary tumor.

Material and methods: 75 liver mNET patients were enrolled in the study. The hepatic metastasis patients were divided into two groups: with pancreatic mNETs (n = 37) and with gastrointestinal tract (gut) mNETs (n = 38), including those of a stomach, small and large bowel, and appendicular primary. All patients underwent abdominal contrast-enhanced MRI with the measurement: the number and the maximum size of the lesions, the presence and size of avascular zones in the lesions, the presence of MRI signs of hemoglobin deg-radation products. In the region of interest, which corresponded to a rounded section in the solid portions of metastases, were measured quantitative indicators of signal intensity on T2-weighted images (WI), native and post-contrast T1-WI, the degree of accumulation of MR contrast agent (MRCA) and its washout, the value of apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC). A total of 171 lesions were assessed. The data were compared in the varying localization of the primary NET groups of patients.

Results: The study demonstrated that the solid portion of the gut mNETs compared with that of the pancreatic mNETs are characterized by lower ADC-value (p = 0.0102, medians: pancreatic mNETs — 1036 × 10–3 mm2/s, gut mNETs — 846 × 10–3 mm2/s), less active accumulation of MRCA on the arterial (p = 0.0002, medians: pan-creatic mNETs — 1.48, gut mNETs — 1.24) and venous (p = 0.0026, median: pancreatic mNETs — 2.22, gut mNETs — 1.9) phases of contrast enhancement, longer washout of MRCA (p = 0.0057, median: pan-creas mNETs — 0.92, gut mNETs — 0.98). Based on regression-factor analysis, a model for determining the localization of primary tumors based on MRI signs of liver mNETs was created with an accuracy of 93.8 %.

Conclusion: Gut mNETs compared with that of the pancreatic mNETs are characterized by lower ADC-value, less active accumulation and longer washout of MRCA. The data can be used to draw up a personalized examination plan of patient with liver mNETs from the unknown primary.
Sea level under climate change: Understanding the links between the past and the future
Authors: Roy Keven , Khan Nicole S. , Shaw Timothy A. , Kopp Robert E. , Horton Benjamin P.
Published: January 2021

Rising global sea level, a consequence of climate change, results from an increase in the world ocean’s water volume and mass. Recent climate warming is responsible for producing the highest rate of global average sea-level rise of the past few millennia, and this rate will accelerate through the 21st century and beyond, exposing low-lying islands and coastal regions to significant flood risks. The flood risks can be compounded or diminished locally because changes in sea level are not uniform. In this review, we briefly discuss ice sheets as drivers of global and local sea levels, and how they could evolve under modern climate change. We underline some of the impacts of sea level change on coastal communities, and emphasize that local sea-level projections can be very different from estimates of the global average.
Monochromatic Components in Edge-Coloured Graphs with Large Minimum Degree
Authors: Guggiari Hannah , Scott Alex
Published: January 2021

For every $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $k\geqslant2$, it is known that every $k$-edge-colouring of the complete graph on $n$ vertices contains a monochromatic connected component of order at least $\frac{n}{k-1}$. For $k\geqslant3$, it is known that the complete graph can be replaced by a graph $G$ with $\delta(G)\geqslant(1-\varepsilon_k)n$ for some constant $\varepsilon_k$. In this paper, we show that the maximum possible value of $\varepsilon_3$ is $\frac16$. This disproves a conjecture of Gyárfas and Sárközy.

Published: January 2021

We characterize the formulas that are avoided by every $\alpha$-free word for some $\alpha>1$. We show that the avoidable formulas whose fragments are of the form $XY$ or $XYX$ are $4$-avoidable. The largest avoidability index of an avoidable palindrome pattern is known to be at least $4$ and at most $16$. We make progress toward the conjecture that every avoidable palindrome pattern is $4$-avoidable.

Published: January 2021

Genetic literacy is an adequate knowledge that personally involves someone to comprehend and actively participate in genetic issues. An individual’s genetic literacy level will influence their decisiveness and attitudes towards reoccurring genetic issues, including genetic screening. This research aimed to discover the relation between genetic literacy levels and genetic screening attitudes of medical students in Indonesia. The data were collected using a cluster sampling method composing of 492 students from 41 universities in Indonesia. Subjects filled the questionnaires, which have underwent validity and reliability test using online modality under local supervisors. Genetic literacy levels were divided into two categories: adequate (>50%) and inadequate (<50%) levels, whereas the genetic screening attitude was categorized into consent and dissent. Of 492 respondents, only 121 people (24.59%) have adequate genetic literacy levels. The study also reports that 262 respondents (60.16%) agreed to the use of genetic screening. Using regression logistic, study found there was no relationship between genetic literacy and attitudes (p>0.05).  Disagreements about using genetic screening are more prevalent among female respondents rather than male respondents. The study showed no relationship between genetic literacy levels and genetic screening attitudes of medical students in Indonesia.

Published: January 2021

The critical micro-vascular complications of diabetes ultimately result in renal dysfunction known as diabetic nephropathy (DN). Measurement of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is considered to be an important parameter in renal function assessment, evaluating GFR by Creatinine level. Recently, Cystatin C is used as a substitute indicator in several studies to assess diabetic nephropathy. This work was conceived to determine whether serum cystatinC would replace serum creatinine (Scr) in patients with type2 diabetes for early evaluation of nephropathy. A Case-Control Study was enrolled on 30 Patients with diabetic and 30 apparently healthy as control, aged between 25 - 83 years. Levels of serum cystatine C and serum Creatinine were calculated for both groups. Serum Creatinine, as well as serum cystatin C levels, was significant relationship with diabetic pt. in compared to non-diabetic individuals. ROC analysis noted the cystatinC was more predict indicator in diagnosed Diabetic Nephropathy (DNP) from Serum Creatinine level. In Type 2 diabetics, CystatinC is a good marker for uncontrolled diabetic nephropathy relative to serum creatinine.

Published: January 2021

Transformer manufacturing industry uses volatile organic compounds (VOCs) containing materials such as varnish which can cause adverse health effects to human. Exposure to a high level of VOCs could disrupt the normal functions of a human lung.Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the status of lung functions of the workers exposed to VOCs at a transformer manufacturing plant in Selangor. The volatile organic compounds (VOCs) concentration in the office and production area was measured using direct-reading method and 60 subjects were selected to undergo the lung function test. The FVC and FEV1 values showed significant difference (p<0.05) between the exposed group and the non-exposed group. The mean readings of FVC (69.07±12.58) and FEV₁ (72.90±10.46) of the exposed groups were lower than the non-exposed group, which were 81.47±9.78 and 84.23±9.07, respectively. In contrast to the FEV1/FVC parameters, the non-exposed group (102.93 ± 7.17) showed lower mean values than the exposed group (105.90±8.98). Besides that, the nasal symptoms showed significant differences (p<0.05) between the exposed and non-exposed group. The demographic data of the exposed group showed no association with the lung function status of the exposed group workers. However, the lung functions of the exposed group were influenced by the concentration of VOCs in the production area. High concentration of VOCs may cause detrimental effects on the lung functions. Therefore, management or employers in the industry should always be aware of the effects of VOCs, and take appropriate steps to ensure the safety and welfare of the employees.
IMPLEMENTATION OF AN IMMUNISATION PROJECT FOR THE REFUGEES USING THE LOGIC MODEL
Authors: Goh Lay Khim , Sow Chew Fei , Ja'afar Safurah
Published: January 2021

Refugees worldwide have been a challenge to many countries. Threats of preventable immunisable diseases amongst children that disrupt the herd immunity have been a concern as many countries lack a structured national policy to administer full vaccines to these refugees. Full immunisation coverage not only protected the refugees but also safeguarded the children of the home country. We designed a collaborative university-based community service partnership with UNHCR and International-Organisation-for-Migration, implemented a practice-integrated immunisation service initiative with the local community. This paper described the implementation process of an immunisation project for the refugees using the evaluative Logic Model. This model diagrammatically shows the relationships between the program's objectives, program activities, process indicators, outcomes, and resources used. It applies to program planning, operation, evaluation and address questions for decision making. The aim was to provide refugees' children below 18-years the complete doses of the national scheduled immunisation. The immunisation was given in six refugees-learning-centres in a total of 31 visits. The workflow includes administering the immunisation, health education, triaging, data collection, and monitoring the children immunised. A total of 1116 children received full immunisation within a period of eighteen months. Vaccines given were Pentavalent, Hepatitis B, Tetanus-Diphtheria, and Mumps-Measles-Rubella. This project has achieved more than 80% immunisation coverage for all the vaccines except Pentavalent (<50%). The Logic Model is useful for developing, implementing, and evaluating knowledge co-production partnerships in the context of a community delivery system in this project.

The flood disaster in Kelantan in 2014 had resulted in substantial health implications including increased cases of communicable diseases. There was a lack of community preparedness including customized health educations in the prevention and control of flood-related communicable diseases in the affected areas. The research was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of community-based health education modules on flood-related communicable diseases among communities in Kelantan. Health education modules focusing on major food-related diseases were developed.  A non-randomized community-controlled trial using the modules were conducted. Outcomes were assessed on knowledge, attitude and preventive practice scores to flood-related communicable diseases using a pre-validated questionnaire. Independent t test was used to compare mean scores between the intervention community (Tumpat) and the control community (Bachok) at 1-month post intervention. One-way independent ANOVA test was done to compare score differences at baseline (pre), post 1-month and post 2-month from repeated surveys among random samples within the intervention community. There were significant improvements in all knowledge components from 9.4% to 52.6% with 10% increment in attitude scores toward preventing behaviours on flood-related communicable diseases.  When compared against the control community at one-month post-intervention, there were significantly higher knowledge on types of diseases, symptoms and risk factors as well as practice scores of drinking safe water and protective habits. This research demonstrated that community-based health education is effective in improving relevant knowledge, attitude and preventive practices among affected communities as part of their preparedness toward communicable diseases related to flood.

Published: January 2021

Este estudio se basa en datos de las 345 escuelas públicas participantes en el Concurso Nacional por la Excelencia Educativa 2019, provenientes de todo Panamá. Por medio del cuestionario de inscripción se identificó el porcentaje de escuelas por región educativa y grado que identifican la deserción como un problema, refiriéndonos al abandono o ausencia de niños y jóvenes en edad escolar de la escuela. Se llevaron a cabo entrevistas en centros escolares con docentes, directores, administrativos, padres de familia y estudiantes. Por medio de un análisis cualitativo utilizando codificación por temas y análisis de frecuencias de los códigos se identificaron causas del fenómeno, estrategias para prevenirlo y para reintegrar a los estudiantes excluidos, para comprender la perspectiva de las escuelas frente a la problemática. Encontramos coherencia entre la percepción en los centros y los datos oficiales en cuanto a nivel escolar: aumenta a mayor nivel escolar. Sin embargo, las provincias que identificaron en mayor proporción que la exclusión educativa es un problema no son necesariamente aquellas con mayor deserción según datos oficiales. Entre las estrategias de prevención o para lograr el reintegro de estudiantes se mencionaron con mayor frecuencia comunicarse con los padres, motivar a los estudiantes, ofrecer alimentación y visitar hogares. Se encontró cierta falta de congruencia: la causa más mencionada fueron los problemas económicos (42%), mientras que las estrategias de prevención y solución más mencionadas se asocian a los problemas familiares (33%).  Hubo poca o nula mención de dificultades académicas. En general se encontró conciencia del problema (59%), aunque podría ser mayor dada su magnitud. Se encontraron comunidades educativas involucradas en intervenciones a nivel local, por ejemplo: un 31% indica realizar visitas a los hogares. Los hallazgos apoyan las políticas nacionales existentes dirigidas a las barreras económicas, y sugieren otras posibles soluciones prioritarias para atender la crisis.
