In this pandemic era, more and more people pay attention to games. At this time, a news that shocked the game circle came out. It was Microsoft that announced that it would complete the acquisition of Activision Blizzard in the 2023 fiscal year. As a host game player, we decided to use SWOT Analysis and PEST Analysis to deeply analyze the impact of this acquisition from eight aspects, especially on the development of the Metauniverse. In the process of research, we found that this may be an opportunity for Microsoft to complete the third growth curve. If all goes well, we will see the birth of the game company with the third largest global revenue in 2023. For the acquisition, it is widely believed in the industry that Microsoft and Activision Blizzard will achieve a win-win situation. Therefore, we suggest that you should pay more attention to this acquisition and make reasonable investment in your spare time.
Study for Performance of MobileNetV1 and MobileNetV2 based on Breast Cancer
Authors: Yan Jiuqi
Published: April 2023

Artificial intelligence is constantly evolving and can provide effective help in all aspects of people's lives. The experiment is mainly to study the use of artificial intelligence in the field of medicine. The purpose of this experiment was to compare which of MobileNetV1 and MobileNetV2 models was better at detecting histopathological images of the breast downloaded at Kaggle. When the doctor looks at the pathological image, there may be errors that lead to errors in judgment, and the observation speed is slow. Rational use of artificial intelligence can effectively reduce the error of doctor diagnosis in breast cancer judgment and speed up doctor diagnosis. The dataset was downloaded from Kaggle and then normalized. The basic principle of the experiment is to let the neural network model learn the downloaded data set. Then find the pattern and be able to judge on your own whether breast tissue is cancer. In the dataset, benign tumor pictures and malignant tumor pictures have been classified, of which 198738 are benign tumor pictures and 78, 786 are malignant tumor pictures. After calling MobileNetV1 and MobileNetV2, the dataset is trained separately, the training accuracy and validation accuracy rate are obtained, and the image is drawn. It can be observed that MobileNetV1 has better validation accuracy and overfit during MobileNetV2 training. From the experimental results, it can be seen that in the case of processing this dataset, MobileNetV1 is much better than MobileNetV2.
Demonstration of Different Functions in Terms of Fractal, Frequency Modulation and Vibrato based on Nyquist
Authors: Li Yanxi
Published: April 2023

Nyquist is a compiler that was developed by computer researcher Roger B. Dannenberg, and it is frequently used in music composition and synthesis programming. The significance of investigating these three functions (fractal, frequency modulation and vibrato) in Nyquist is to introduce the basic principles behind each function, which could be then applied to other software as well. This paper presents three perspectives that could be achieved by the functions in Nyquist and illustrates their functions from illustrating the similarities and differences through graphs and descriptions. By combining pseudo codes and description, the distinction could be more apparently and comprehensively presented. During my research and development phase of Nyquist and its application, Nyquist Reference Manual is referred, with which scholars can basically achieve any effects in their scores or pieces by referring to it. These results can surely help substantially understand more about Nyquist, the principles behind its functions, and possible application the concepts into any other programming environments.

Authors: Shi Tiancheng
Published: April 2023

Stroke is a common brain disease that happens when brain vessels get blocked. As one of top-rated reason for human death, stroke not only leads to death but also causes huge economic damage and occupies a lot of medical resources. Every year 610,000 people died in US because of stroke. The economy loss is up to 30 billion dollars. This paper tries to predict and find the relationship between stroke and other related variables. The dataset from Kaggle collects 5110 participants' data about stroke with other health or habitats’ relative variables like gender, age, bmi, average glucose level, whether have hypertension, smoking status, to a total of 12 variables. With the use of the VAR model and Granger Causality test, 10 different pairs of VAR models are created and compared. The result of the final test shows that 9 variables have Granger Causality with stroke while only 1 attribute is not.
Analysis of the Progress of in vivo Trans differentiation of Glial Cells into Neurons
Authors: Zhou Zhiyu
Published: April 2023

In the majority of instances, neuronal damage or loss cannot be healed or restored. However, over the past few years, an increasing number of researchers have been attempting to directly transdifferentiate astrocytes into neurons in both in vitro and in vivo situations. Since Shinya Yamanaka published the first work on induced pluripotent stem cells in 2006, the area of cell transdifferentiation has been consistently increasing for more than ten years. The NeuroD1 studies have been carried out on multiple occasions by a number of researchers, who have demonstrated that these tests demonstrate the potential for the drug to trigger in situ conversion of astrocytes into neuronal cells. This is despite the fact that Chunli Zhang's team has also put out some additional theories that call into question how transdifferentiation is mediated by NeuroD1, PTBP1, and other pathways. This article will provide an in-depth analysis of the techniques for reprogramming astrocytes into neurons, as well as a discussion of the most contentious topics surrounding this research area.

Published: April 2023

Livestock plays an important role in the national economy and has a significant share in the gross domestic product of Pakistan. Parasitic diseases and worm infestations negatively affect their health, production, and reproductive performance. In addition, parasitic infestation in livestock reduces gross production values and renders huge economic losses globally. Among the parasites, the most important are nematodes. They are distributed worldwide and affect all kinds of livestock. This review aimed to elaborate on the main gastrointestinal nematodes, their mode of action, impacts on livestock and their control (physical, chemical or biological) strategies. Common examples of nematode worms infesting the livestock are Ascaris, Hemonchus, Strongyloids, Trichostrongyliods, Ostertagia, Trichuris, Dictyocaulus, Trichnellia, Enterobius, Cooperia, Gunagylonema, Chabertia, and Oesphagostomum. The gastrointestinal nematodes are detrimental to the animals’ health. Nematodes primarily affect animals’ feed consumption and efficiency, and severe ailments result in the death of the affected animals. The production and health losses primarily depend on the age of the animals, the degree of severity of worm infestation, epidemiology pattern of the parasites, management strategies of the flocks, and ecoclimatic conditions which are favorable for the worm’s infestation. To minimize these issues, farmers should be educated on the importance of intensive livestock management and environmental sanitation, as well as strategic deworming of cattle using efficient broad-spectrum anthelmintics, biological control of the parasites, and breaking their life cycle and intermediate hosts.

Penicillium marneffei infection involving liver
Authors: Afridi Faisal Iqbal , Fatima Faria
Published: April 2023

Penicillium marneffei (P. marneffei) is a pathogenic fungus that can cause fatal infections in humans, particularly immunocompromised hosts. It is prevalent only in the Southeast Asian region. A 5-year-old boy was presented with diagnosed Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia undergoing chemotherapy and suffering from high-grade fever for 15 days positively responded to antibiotics on the initial day, but later he became unresponsive. He was found negative for blood cultures of bacterial growth. Ultrasound of the abdomen showed a borderline enlarged liver with multiple small hypoechoic areas of variable sizes seen scattered in both lobes of the liver. Morphological and microscopic analyses of liver tissues showed multiple septate hyphae of P. marneffei. Amphotericin B was found to be effective in treating the child. Appropriate identification is essential to treat the pathogen-causing disease, especially in immuno-compromised conditions like a leukemic patient, and determine underlying mechanisms behind the pathogenesis.

Examination of the Possible Relationship of MBTI Personality Types among Cardiac Rehabilitation Patients– A Cross-Sectional Study
Authors: Monajemi Mani B. , Etemadi Soraya , Allahdadi Sajjad
Published: April 2023

INTRODUCTION: The relationship between personality type and medical problems has been discussed widely in the literature, but empirical data on the relationship between heart diseases and personality types is lacking. In the current study, we aim to look at the connections (if there are ones) between Myer-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) personality types and Cardiac Rehabilitation Patients (CRPs) profiles.

MATERIALS & METHODS: The current cross-sectional study was conducted from October 2017 to February 2019. The study included five hundred fifty-two (male: 336, female: 216) CRPs referred to Tehran Heart Center via a convenient sampling. After acquiring a written consent form and obtaining demographic data (age, educational status, blood type, antigen type, BMI, risk factors) from the medical history database, we asked participants to answer to Persian version of the MBTI questionnaire. Finally, we assessed any existing (if there) relationship between MBTI subtypes and the abovementioned variables among CRPs.

RESULTS: According to the current study, among 16 MBTI personality types, only four types were identified in cardiac rehabilitation patients. Accordingly, INTJ maintained the highest frequency of CRPs, followed by ISTJ, ESTJ and ISFJ, respectively. The current study demonstrated a significant difference between PCI and CABG interventions among four MBTI dichotomies. The study also shows no significant association between risk factors and MBTI personality types (P<0.05).

CONCLUSION: The result of the study has a salient clinical implication, as it can be adopted in the screening and intervention phases of the clinical process. During the screening, a clinician can tailor the therapeutic procedures according to the specific needs of the patient's personality traits. Furthermore, clinicians may elevate patients' adherence to treatment by considering specific personality preferences.
REPETITION IN THE ORAL TRADITION OF ZHYRAU: EXPRESSIVENESS AND FIGURATIVENESS OF THE ARTISTIC IMAGE
Authors: Zhanabayev K. , Maulenov A. , Turgenbaev A. Sh. , Fazylzhanova A. M.
Published: April 2023

The article explores the formulaic nature of epic repetition in the oral tradition of the Kazakh Zhyrau XV–XVIII centuries. It manifests itself in its two main functions – expressive and pictorial. The main purpose of the article is to reveal the aesthetic and functional nature of epic repetition, to identify its features as a technical acceptance, and to trace its initial origins – rhythmed spells, suggestive magical realities, and its primary transformations. In the course of the research, we used historical-genetic, structural-semantic, hermeneutic methods and the method of the oral theory of Parry-Lord (oral tradition). The theoretical value of the methods used lies in the fact that they made it possible to reveal the genetic nature of epic repetition and the peculiarities of its functioning in traditional poetic art. The formulaic and stylistic patterns of various types of sound repetition – anaphora, verbal rhyme, monorym, rediff, etc. – were studied for the first time on the material of the individual author's oral poetry of Zhyrau of the XV–XVIII centuries. The practical value of the article and its justification lies in the writing of the monograph "The Poetic word in myth, ritual and ritual" and the preparation of a "Poetic Dictionary of the frequency of formulaic units" within the framework of the scientific project "Research of the artistic-determinative system, "formulaic stylistics" and grammar of poetry of Zhyrau XV–XVIII centuries. Frequency dictionary" (under the Program of grant financing of scientific and scientific-technical projects for 2021-2023 by the MSHE RK, IRN AP09261377).
EVOLUTION OF VOFES (VOCALISM) IN THE TURKIC (KYPCHAK) LANGUAGES
Authors: Bazarbayeva Z. M.
Published: April 2023

In the presented article, the historical phenomena of the system of vocalism of the Kypchak group of related languages will be determined according to the main stages of the development of the Turkic languages. When comparing the vocalism of the Kypchak Turkic languages, common and distinctive features of phonological systems are revealed.  

The purpose of the scientific research is to carry out a phonetic-phonological analysis of vowel sounds (vocalism system) based on the Kypchak group of Turkic languages. 

Phonological phenomena influencing the development and formation of phonetic systems will be considered in a diachronic aspect. When analyzing the sound system of the Turkic languages by the comparative historical method, the Kazakh language is compared with the Tatar, Karakalpak, Nogai, Bashkir, Karashai, Balkar languages belonging to the Kypchak typological group. We hope that in the future, taking into account the historical development and typological features of each group of languages, coupled with their universal properties, it will be possible to reconstruct the phonological model of the Proto-Turkic language. In the proposed article, the sound changes of the Kypchak group of languages are considered from a new angle, which will contribute to the further development of linguistic science, the identification of general patterns for other levels of languages, the explanation of the changes taking place in the language, and the prediction of the ways of its development. The study of the historical phonology of the Kazakh language in a comparative historical aspect with other related Turkic, in particular the Kypchak languages close to us, testifies to the theoretical significance of the work. The work is also of great practical importance: historical phonology opens the way to solving unexplored problems of historical grammar, historical lexicology and etymology.

Published: April 2023

Este trabalho buscou detectar a ocorrência do efeito índice nas recomposições da carteira teórica do Ibovespa, efeito este que se manifesta pela ocorrência de retornos anormais oferecidos pelas variações nos preços das ações que foram incluídas ou excluídas da carteira. A ocorrência do efeito índice tem implicações sobre a eficiência informacional de mercado e pode representar oportunidades de investimento nos mercados acionários. Os dados utilizados para aplicação da técnica do Estudo de Eventos são referentes ao período que abrange os anos de 2010 a 2016. Os resultados obtidos com a investigação de 33 eventos (11 exclusões de ações e 22 inclusões) revelaram a presença de retornos anormais, principalmente após a divulgação da primeira prévia da recomposição da carteira teórica e após a divulgação da carteira definitiva para o quadrimestre. Neste último caso, foram detectados retornos anormais exclusivamente para as ações excluídas da carteira, o que é um resultado inovador para a investigação em questão, frente ao que consta na literatura, e que se mostraram negativos, conforme se detectou em outros estudos publicados sobre o tema.
The issue of transport documentation circulation between logistic processes participants
Authors: Jachimowski Roland , Zieliński Tadeusz , Jóźwiak Arkadiusz
Published: April 2023

The performance of freight transport with the use of means of transport of various modes requires the completion of several documents accompanying the shipment. The documentation accompanying the load is often completed in paper form, which causes many errors and, as a result, problems with the effective implementation of transport processes. In the era of progressive digitization of information flow, the possibility of filling in documentation in electronic form and sending it between the IT systems seems necessary to increase the competitiveness of enterprises. The article aims to identify the problems and needs of participants in transport processes in terms of completing transport documentation, accessing this documentation during and after the transport, and sending this documentation between these participants. The analysis of the problems mentioned above and needs was made based on studies of industry literature, expert knowledge, and a survey conducted by participants in transport processes. Additionally, for the analysis, participants in the transport processes in all modes of transport were identified. The literature research and the survey of participants of transport processes in various modes of transport showed many problems they encounter daily in the circulation of transport documentation. The common denominator for these problems and needs is the necessity to fill in the transport documentation manually in many cases and also to send it between process participants using traditional mail. The literature review and the survey results indicate that maximizing digitization in terms of filling in and circulation of transport documentation would improve logistics processes. The measurable effects of digitization of selected elements of transport processes can already be observed thanks to the electronic exchange of EDI data between IT systems of participants in logistics processes.

Postoperative outcomes and mid-term results of both groups were evaluated.

Results: Outflow graft was anastomosed to the ascending aorta with J-sternotomy in all patients. The median duration of intubation and intensive care unit stay were one (IQR: 1.5) day and eight (IQR: 6.5) days in the off-pump group, respectively and one (IQR: 0) day and seven (IQR: 7) days in the on-pump group, respectively. Intra-aortic balloon pump was needed during the weaning of cardiopulmonary bypass in one (11%) of the patients in both groups. Postoperative right ventricular failure was observed in two (22%) patients in the offpump group who were treated medically and recovered. There was no need for revision due to bleeding or postoperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenator implantation in either group. In the off-pump group, three patients underwent heart transplantation after median 854 (IQR: 960) days. Three patients died one month, two and four years after implantation. Three patients were still alive with left ventricular assist device and were being uneventfully followed for 365, 400, and 700 days after implantation.

Conclusion: Off-pump technique is safe and feasible option for implantation of left ventricular assist device via minimally invasive left thoracotomy.

Effects of Internal Control Weaknesses, Financial Independence and Size on Quality of Financial Statements in the Tanzanian Local Government Authorities
Authors:   The Institute of Finance Management, Al-Beity Shufaa
Published: April 2023

This study examines the relationship between internal control weaknesses (ICWs), independence, and size on the quality of financial statements of local government authorities (LGAs) in Tanzania. The analysis is based on data from a large sample of LGAs’ financial statements for four years from FY 2010/11 to FY 2013/14. The study employed logistic regression to examine whether ICWs (fraud prevention plan, risk management, accounting system, and IT controls), financial independence, and size of LGAs determine financial statement errors/restatements in the LGAs. The study shows that large and financially dependent LGAs with accounting system ICWs are more likely to have lower financial statement quality. However, other ICWs (IT controls, fraud prevention, and risk management) results were insignificant. These results may be attributed to the level of compliance and implementation of the parent ministry’s directives among LGAs. Therefore, practitioners and policymakers should ensure that LGAs not only adopt directives/policies but also fully comply and implement with their requirements as well as build financial management capacity to increase LGAs’ financial independence.

Masih terdapat beberapa kendala dalam pemilihan umum (Pemilu) di Indonesia, seperti potensi pelanggengan kekuasaan dan kisruh pembuatan pemilih tetap. Berdasarkan metode yuridis normative, dihasilkan 2 (dua) kesimpulan. Pertama, pengaturan Pemilu di era reformasi di Indonesia masih lebih baik bila dibandingkan dengan era demokrasi terpimpin danera Orde Baru. Kedua, penegakan hukum pemilihan umum di era reformasi di Indonesia masih harus berdasarkan asas legalitas. Hal ini dapat menimbulkan beberapa kendala, seperti susahnya menjerat money politics dan harus melibatkan beebrapa unsur institusi penagak hukum terkait. Disarankan terdapat pembaharuan hukum terkait lembaga penegak hukum tunggal pada masing-masing tahapan, mulai dari penyelidikan, penyidikan, dan penuntutan tindak pidana Pemilu.

Authors:   St. Cyril and St. Methodius University of Veliko Turnovo, Bulgaria, Mochukov Ivaylo
Published: April 2023

The impact of the war in Ukraine on agriculture and its consequences on staple foods are analyzed. The price and trade levels of the main agricultural products before and after the war conflict are studied. Their impact on the European agricultural sector and multiplier effect on the independent sugar sector is explored. A historical and comparative analysis is used to support this research. Three main reasons for instability in the sector because of the war have been identified: reduced production, increased consumption and limited imports. Based on the results of the research, a solution has been proposed to overcome the identified problems in the European Sugar Sector: introducing a preferential quota for the import of raw cane sugar which is intended for refining in countries that lack their own raw material for sugar processing (Region 3 in the EU, including Bulgaria).

A Study on the Implementation of the Qualification System for the Improvement of Professionalism of Security Guards
Authors:   The Korean Society of Private Security, Jung Bo-Sung , Kim Jung-Gyu
Published: April 2023

The qualitative growth as well as the quantitative growth of the Korean private security industry is that the private security is in charge of the function of substantially supplementing the police force in protecting the life, body and property of the people. And that's why it's necessary to study. This study, which presented a plan to introduce a qualification system to improve the professionalism of security guards, drew the following conclusions. First, the security work must be clearly classified and the qualification certificates must be subdivided according to the field and scope of the security work. Second, it is necessary to distinguish between qualifications for private security guard examination. Third, in the evaluation method, not only the department test but also the practical test should be conducted in a complex way. Fourth, evaluation should be conducted through the connection between department and practical course. Currently, the security industry is complexly intertwined with various issues such as scope of work, education, management, and supervision, so a complex study is needed rather than a single study. - It is necessary to make a leap and develop into one specialized field through various research and support, such as deriving job-related education and training subjects, roles and changes of management and supervision institutions, and utilization of security-related professionals. In this case, safety problems such as congestion and terrorism due to the participation of citizens and tourists are emerging. The causes of these problems have also changed as society has diversified, and safety measures for large-scale events involving citizens must also change according to the changing social threat factors.
Morphometric diversity of swamp buffaloes in Indonesia: A meta-analysis
Authors: Saputra Ferdy , Anggraeni Anneke
Published: April 2023

The frame size of a buffalo is influenced by several morphometric variables. Large frame sizes are expected to have more meat than small frames. There are many morphological studies of swamp buffalo in Indonesia, but meta-analysis has never been carried out to see the genetic potential based on morphometrics. Data obtained from various publications are stored in Microsoft Excel. Body length, wither height, and chest girth was analyzed using Orange 3.27.1 software to generate principal component analysis and hierarchical clustering. Indonesian swamp buffalo has a medium frame size compared to the crossbred Murrah buffalo and Azikheli except the Maluku buffalo which has a small frame size. Based on hierarchical clustering, there are four clusters for Indonesian swamp buffalo based on three morphometric variables. To produce Indonesian swamp buffalo with a larger frame size, it is advisable to mate male buffalo Aceh with female Southeast Sulawesi buffalo.
