Authors: Orbegozo-Galarza Arturo
Published: January 2023

Este texto propone una periodización del comportamiento organizacional en el Perú. Hacia 1900, gracias a una inicial industrialización, se despiertan las propuestas por humanizar las condiciones de trabajo de los obreros. Entre los años 20 y 60 del siglo pasado el Estado propició, gracias a su extensión, la necesidad de mejorar procesos y contar con personal calificado. Entre las décadas de 1970 y 1980, los psicólogos organizacionales trabajaron principalmente en entidades públicas. A partir de 1990, gracias a las privatizaciones y la multiplicación de empresas, la especialidad conoce un auge.
Qual a influência que as fibras de aço e polipropileno e suas hibridizações podem causar em concretos autoadensáveis no estado fresco?
Authors: Cabral Larissa Marques Cunha
Published: January 2023

O concreto reforçado com fibras tem sido, ultimamente uma das soluções mais utilizadas nas obras de construção, principalmente para substituição das telas de aço, visto que o custo destes estão altos. Desta forma, o uso de fibras sintéticas com fibras de aço trás propriedades enriquecedoras para o concreto no estado fresco, contudo, altera as propriedades do espalhamento do concreto fresco. Em vista disso, este estudo busca avaliar o comportamento do concreto autoadensável fresco com a adição de fibras de aço e de polipropileno, assim como as suas hibridizações. Para a produção dos concretos, as fibras foram adicionadas em 0,5% em volume em relação ao concreto. As hibridizações das fibras de aço e polipropileno foram: 75% de fibras aço e 25% de fibras polipropileno, 50% de fibras de aço e 50% de fibras de polipropileno, 75% fibras de polipropileno e 25% de fibras de aço. Os ensaios realizados buscaram averiguar as propriedades de espalhamento, a habilidade passante do concreto autoadensável e a sua segregação, a fim de caracterizar o concreto por completo. Assim, esse estudo visa analisar a influência das fibras e a influência da sinergia das fibras no concreto autoadensável com fibras hibridizadas no estado fresco. A utilização de fibras híbridas se mostrou vantajoso para o aumento do espalhamento do concreto, porém no quesito de passar por obstáculos, a hibridização não mostrou melhoras significantes, mas também não apresentou desvantagens claras.
Il paratesto del romanzo web in Cina: il caso Punto di partenza
Authors: Cella Gloria
Published: January 2023

Negli ultimi vent’anni, la letteratura web si è affermata nella Repubblica popolare cinese come forma di letteratura popolare e i lunghi romanzi pubblicati e aggiornati quotidianamente dagli utenti rappresentano la principale forma di narrativa diffusa sulle piattaforme online. Servendosi degli strumenti offerti da Gérard Genette, il contributo analizza il paratesto di romanzi web pubblicati su Punto di partenza e, in particolar modo, i contenuti della sezione “in aggiunta al testo”, uno spazio che precede il romanzo dove lo scrittore pubblica notizie e informazioni di varia natura. L’analisi di tali contenuti ha permesso di mettere in luce pratiche e strategie adottate dalle figure coinvolte, confermando la centralità della comunità virtuale nei processi di produzione e fruizione di tale letteratura.
I modi della Twitter fiction
Authors: Pitozzi Andrea
Published: January 2023

Fin dalla sua nascita nei primi anni del XXI secolo, il social network Twitter è stato sede di interessanti sperimentazioni narrative legate in particolare alla forma breve in ambito digitale. Muovendo da una mappatura di queste pratiche di Twitteratura, inquadrabili soprattutto come microracconti, forme di riscrittura ludica o di creazione condivisa, l’articolo si concentra su tre casi di Twitter fiction – Black Box (2012) di Jennifer Egan, Evidence: Story of a Crime  (2012) di Eliott Holt e Hafiz (2014) di Teju Cole –, per evidenziare come simili esempi esplicitino in varia misura sperimentazioni condotte guardando a una specificità mediale che oltrepassa il semplice vincolo della brevità. Così facendo, questi testi presentano un atteggiamento critico nei confronti del mezzo di cui si avvalgono e si configurano come emblematici di un processo di riflessione che dal semplice piano della condivisione chiama in causa uno spazio di riflessione sulle possibilità e i modi stessi della Twitter fiction.
Letteratura&rete. La parola agli scrittori elettronici
Authors: Iadevaia Roberta
Published: January 2023

L’articolo riporta, in parte rielabora, spesso commenta, le risposte di undici ‘scrittori elettronici’ a domande relative a letteratura&rete. L’articolo non si propone tanto di definire un fenomeno, come quello della ‘letteratura elettronica’, per definizione ampio, eterogeneo, complesso e mutante, quanto di testimoniare strada facendo, ma anche tacendo, i divergenti/convergenti percorsi e le opinioni di chi, in questi ultimi trentacinque anni, ha provato a ‘fare’ letteratura elettronica ‘dentro la rete’. Tra le faglie di questi frammenti non cuciti a dovere trapelano bagliori di un contesto in cui la letteratura sublima se stessa, andando oltre la rappresentazione (dello spettacolo del senso) per farsi scenario (occulto) di eventi inaspettati. Nel laboratorio assurdista di questa letteratura finalmente disposta a farsi gioco di/in sé, i fili della rete vengono fatti e disfatti: una rete che non pesca e non contiene; una rete del (far) fare e non (solo) del dire.

Authors:   Department of Biochemistry, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, Uli, Anambra State, Nigeria, Mere Chinenye Azuka
Published: January 2023

The Glycaemic Index (GI) is a numerical system of measuring how fast a carbohydrate triggers a rise in circulating blood sugar – the higher the number, the higher the blood sugar response. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the carbohydrate content and glycaemic index of some vegetables and seeds. The phenol- sulphuric acid method for the estimation of carbohydrate quantitatively was used. Sucrose was used as standard carbohydrate to prepare a calibration curve. Albino rats were used for the determination of blood glucose. In estimating the rate of blood glucose after feeding with samples, three (3) animals were used for each sample. Each blood sample was placed on a test strip which was inserted into a calibrated glucometer (prestige) which gave direct readings after 45 seconds based on glucose oxidase assay method. Pentacletra macrophylla, Treculia africanum and Telfaria occidentalis. Pentacletra macrophyylla has a glycaemic of 61.3% ± 9.30, Telfaria occidentalis has a glycaemic index of 86.5% ± 0.70 while Treculia africanum has glycaemic index of 49.1% ± 4.42. The present study shows that Pentacletra macrophylla is a natural snack that can be eaten by athletes to maintain stamina and provide energy for a longer time.

Published: January 2023

Laying of the conductor casing is part of the early stages of well designs. Piezocone Penetration Test (CPTu) is a test used in situ to determine geotechnical properties and evaluate stratigraphy parameters, i.e. undrained shear strength and specific weight. This test generally obtains parameters up to a depth of approximately 40 meters. However, since conductor casing can reach up to 100 meters, it is necessary to estimate data outside the CPTu test domain during the design phase. This study involves analyzing methodologies to estimate geotechnical parameters of clayey soil at depths beyond known data domain. Applicability of these methods can help the decision-making process of a well design, accelerate the construction phase, and contribute to structural integrity. Results verify and describe the efficiency of the methods in estimating geotechnical parameters in the early stages of well installation.

In this paper, Neutrosophic definitions and properties of some special number sequences which are frequently found in the science literature, called Neutrosophic Number Sequences (NNSq) via Horadam sequence are studied for the first time. Especially for Neutrosophic Fibonacci (NFNq) and Neutrosophic Lucas (NLNq) number sequences, fundamental properties and identities such as Ruggles, Honsberger, Cassini, Catalan, d’Ocagne, and Tagiuri are given. In addition, Neutrosophic definitions of the sequences of Pell (NPNq), Pell-Lucas (NPLNq), Jacobsthal (NJNq), Jacobsthal-Lucas (NJLNq), Mersenne (NMNq), Mersenne-Lucas (NMLNq), Balancing (NBNq), and Lucas-Balancing (NLBNq) numbers are introduced. Besides defining these numbers and their sequences, since fuzzy and intuitionistic fuzzy sets are restrictions of neutrosophic sets, sequences of numbers within these sets are naturally and indirectly revealed.

Replacement of physical labor and repetitive tasks by the agents is an attractive issue in the Smart Environment (SE). SE is distinguished by its ability to be controlled from a distance, to facilitate the connection between devices through middleware, to gather and share data from sensors, to improve the intelligence of devices, and to make decisions. To be effective, SE design must make use of information and networks that already exist in the actual world. Effective SE design is complicated by several difficulties, including monitoring, data collecting, assessment, evaluation, prediction of important data, and meaningful presentation. For SE, the most important step is gathering information from a variety of sensors in various locations. Wireless sensor networks provide an underlying architecture for the coordinated collection of data from many sensors that have common characteristics (WSN). An essential aspect of sensor networks is their inability to function in the currently complicated environment for wireless network security. In the realm of remote sensor businesses, cryptology is an essential part of safety measures. Several of the prevalent cryptographic methods have significant flaws that prevent them from being fully reliable. In this paper, we provide a unified, three-stage cryptographic procedure that combines public-key and secret-key techniques for maximum security. Due to consideration of Public-key management and high degree of security, Rijndael Encryption Approach (REA), Horst Feistel's Encryption Approach (HFEA), and the more sophisticated Rivest-Shamir-Adleman (e-RSA). Time spent in both execution and decoding of the suggested approach was utilized to rank the quality of displays. The suggested set of rules uses a single evaluation boundary or computation time, which is different from the methodologies used before. Low Encryption Time (LET) and Low Unscrambling Time (LDT) values of 1.12 and 1.26 were observed on texts ranging in size from 6 to 184 MB, respectively. Comparisons show that the suggested hybrid form is 2.9% more efficient than AES+RSA, 1.36 times more efficient than ECC+RSA+MD-5, 1.36 times more efficient than AES+ECC, and 1.36 times more efficient than AES+ECC+RSA+MD-5.

Cybercriminals prey on individuals who utilize the internet as well as organizations in order to get sensitive information. The hackers were able to access critical data on the company's systems, such as login information, credit card details, and bank account numbers. Phishing attacks are a sort of cyberattack in which hackers trick internet users into believing their websites are authentic in order to collect the users' private information. The purpose of these attacks is to steal this information. Malware assaults begin with the covert installation of malicious software on corporate servers or user PCs via the use of the internet. The attackers then continue to steal every piece of information that kept on the targeted server or computer. Malware used in an ever-increasing number of attacks these days. An incursion into a network is a kind of attack in which the perpetrator seeks to take possession of all of the network's resources. Approaches based on heuristic analysis and visual resemblance used, regardless of whether they are blacklisted or whitelisted.

Authors:   Free International University of Moldova, Andreeva Tatiana , Kabaha Ali ,   Academy of Public Administration, Republic of Moldova
Published: January 2023

The rise in environmental awareness characterizes most governments and institutions in the Western world. In addition, integration into the European market and trade with OECD countries requires compliance with stringent environmental standards. The markets that Israel exports require that the supply chain meets high standards. Increased awareness of global environmental risks and increased enforcement and demands from world market firms have led to rapid growth of tech clean markets (Israeli companies offering alternative energy technologies, such as Ormat and Solel companies) are experiencing rapid economic growth. As a country with a lot of human capital and an innovative high technology industry, Israel has the ability to innovate and lead in finding solutions to environmental problems in the world. There is a real business advantage for market leaders operating at the forefront of technology and development, and preferably, the state will assist the business sector to realize this advantage.

Authors:   Academy of Economic Studies, Republic of Moldova, Paduraru Tatiana , Ţurcanu Gheorghe ,   Academy of Economic Studies, Republic of Moldova
Published: January 2023

The adoption of the green economy in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication as one of the two themes for Rio+20 focused international attention and provided the catalyst for new partnerships, consultations and collaborative research that led to the publication of a significant volume of literature. Although interest in the Green Economy has grown steadily and many definitions have been proposed for this concept, a consensual and concrete definition is still missing, the concept remains controversial due to theoretical vagueness and conceptual ambiguities. Thus, the paper aims to make a synthesis of the existing definitions, to analyze the conceptual differences and to present the importance of the green economy in the context of sustainable development. Also, the paper aims to highlight the main initiatives at the European level for the promotion of the green economy, as well as to analyze the national context regarding the implementation and promotion of the green economy in the Republic of Moldova. The methodology is based on methods of analysis and synthesis, interpretation and relevant comparisons. The results of the research highlight the fact that although Moldova has undertaken various actions to promote the green economy, their implementation remains very limited. The paper also presents some relevant results of the study carried out by the author among consumers regarding their perception of sustainability and ecological products, which helps to better understand the context and conditions for the promotion and development of the green economy, from the perspective of consumers.

Authors:   Free International University of Moldova, Dreiher Dalia
Published: January 2023

The aim of this study was to understand how Israeli hospitals improve several domains related to quality of care in its broadest sense, including clinical quality, patient safety, patient experience, waiting times for outpatient visits and clinicians’ well-being. Questionnaires were send to leaders of public hospitals in Israel. These questionnaires inquired which methods are used to improve quality (e.g., email communication, annual work plans, computerized reports, etc.). Of 29 public hospitals, 14 responded. On the whole, similar methods were used for most topics. These included discussions at the leadership level, formal meetings to discuss issues between leadership and departments, email communications and annual work plans meeting. Domains which were less likely to be under leadership’s focus were waiting times for procedures and outpatient visits, and clinicians’ well-being. Several methods, such as computerized reports, or quarterly follow-up meetings with departments were used less frequently. We can conclude that a global framework for introducing quality in Israeli hospitals is needed.

In this article, on the basis of scientific analysis, synthesis and generalization, the essence of the main psychological concepts of development is considered from a historical point of view. In this context, the resultant theory (our term is R. J., M. T.) is proposed for discussion as a logical continuation of historically previous concepts, which is applicable not only to the human, but also to the non-human world / worlds. Therefore, in our opinion, this theory is universal. The article provides a formula for the mathematical calculus of the resultant (R). Concrete and convincing examples of the use of the resultant theory for the preparation of Olympians in mathematics, in other areas of human life and activity, but not only, for example, in the organic (plant, animal) and inorganic worlds (physical, chemical) are given. I would like to hope that, gradually, this theory will take root, become habitual, and after it new, more advanced ones will appear, contributing to human progress.
The feeling of self-efficiency in adolescents: determinant factors

Published: January 2023

In cognitive psychology, the term metacognition draws attention to the role of the subject itself in knowledge, in its awareness, by calling for self-control, self-appreciation and self-improvement of one's own cognition. The author Joiță claims that it influences through the awareness of the organization of the cognitive field, of the way of structuring the situation by shaping the subject's belief that he will be able to fulfill, solve the task and even control his own behavior, that is, he will become self-efficient. Self-efficacy (self-efficacy) as a result qualitative aspect is a manifestation of the conception and evaluation made by the student, regarding his knowledge, skills, abilities, difficulties in solving the problem, his willingness and the possibility of solving it. Researcher Iluț in his work demonstrates that students anticipate their performances, redefine their proposed standards, schedule their overcoming of obstacles, strengthen their intrinsic motivation, adapt their expectation of success, self-regulate their mode of action and become aware of the role of the quality of their own contribution in the solution. If there is a close connection between self-efficacy and performance, the level of projects to solve problems/situations, of decisions made, then self-efficacy must become an important educational objective of cognitive training. So the intervention will be on the self, the current level of metacognition, to achieve improvement and correction.

Job satisfaction is a combination of positive or negative feelings that employees have about their work. Meanwhile, when an employee in an organization brings with him the needs, wants, and experiences that determine the expectations he has built, job satisfaction will represent the extent to which the organization meets them. Job satisfaction is the extent to which expectations match reality. Job satisfaction is closely related to the individual's behavior at work. Job satisfaction is the employee's sense of accomplishment and success. It is generally perceived to be directly related to both productivity and personal well-being. Job satisfaction involves having a job you enjoy, doing well, and being rewarded for your personal efforts. Job satisfaction further implies enthusiasm and happiness at work. Job satisfaction is the essential element that leads to recognition, income, promotion and the achievement of other goals that lead to a sense of self-fulfillment [4]. Job satisfaction can also be defined as the extent to which an employee is satisfied with the rewards he derives from his work, especially in terms of intrinsic motivation.The term job satisfaction refers to the manifestations and feelings that people have towards their work. Positive and favorable attitudes towards the workplace indicate job satisfaction. Negative and unfavorable attitudes towards the workplace indicate job dissatisfaction. Job satisfaction is the collection of feelings and beliefs that people have about their current job. People's job satisfaction levels can range from extreme satisfaction to extreme dissatisfaction. In addition to having attitudes about their jobs as a whole, people may also have attitudes about various aspects of their work, such as the type of work they do, their peers, supervisors or subordinates, and pay them.

Background: A significant number of patients who underwent surgical myocardial revascularization (CABG) have various comorbidities, including left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD). Objective: The aim of this paper is to show that patients with preoperative LVDD are at an increased risk of postoperative adverse events and have a worse prognosis compared to patients without LVDD. Methods: The study included 116 patients who underwent myocardial revascularization (CABG) performed at Medical Institute Bayer in Tuzla over a period of 1 year. None of the patients had previously undergone CABG or valvular surgery, or undergone stent implantation (PCI). The presence of LV diastolic dysfunction was detected by echocardiography, and the patients were divided into two groups: with and without LVDD, and further classified into three degrees of LVDD. Results: Of the total number of subjects who underwent surgical revascularization of the myocardium without echocardiographically detected LVDD, 24.1% were patients, and 75.9% were patients with LVDD. In the group with LVDD, the range of days spent in the intensive care unit (ICU) is significantly higher compared to patients without LVDD. Also, patients with LVDD had a significantly higher number of hours of inotropic support, a significantly higher number of cases of tachycardia, predominantly atrial fibrillation (POAF). In this group of patients, a greater number of other adverse events were observed, such as myocardial infarction, cardiac or renal failure, TIA or CVI. Of the total number of patients in the study, 107 patients survived surgical myocardial revascularization and had a satisfactory recovery while 9 (7.8%) survived, all from the group with LVDD. Conclusion: Patients with preoperative diastolic dysfunction of the left ventricle, especially with III degree of dysfunction, are exposed to a higher postoperative risk of adverse events such as: atrial fibrillation, prolonged stay in the intensive care unit, the need for longer-term support with inotropes, and the fatal outcome was recorded exclusively in patients with LV diastolic dysfunction.

Background: Lower back pain is a major complaint presented globally with its manifestation attributed to ligament strain or muscle strain and bulging or ruptured disks. 7.5% of the world population suffers from lower back pain with more than 70% of people in developed countries experiencing low back pain at some time. Lower back pain causes posturing problems and decreased motion ranges limiting people's ability to do work. The defect also causes numerous issues like debility, affects the quality of life, and impairs the ability to function and work, generating a socioeconomic burden on patients and society, which may challenge the health care system's cost-effectiveness. The complaint is enormously common in athletes and sportsmen. However, there remains a gap in understanding its prevalence across various sports and time frames. Lower back pain anatomic changes affect athletes' levels of exercising and competing which can result in permanent suspension from sporting activities.
The issue of low back pain (LBP) is a persisting challenge, therefore, we are conducting this study to determine the ubiquity of low back pain among athletes in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Aim: The purpose of this qualitative research was to understand the ubiquity and prevalence of low back pain among athletes in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Materials and methods: The study involved 371 participants enrolled from three units; gyms, sports centers, and public places. The study took place between May 2022 and August 2022. Self-administered questionnaires with questions on demographics and a standardized scale (Standardized Nordic questionnaires for the analysis of musculoskeletal symptoms) were used. Data collection was exercised by trained research assistants pre-trained by the research team. All the questions administered were standardized to enable respondents to receive duplicate questions with identical wording.

Results:
The participants had a mean age of 26.9 years ± 7.69. Demographic: Gender (M, 193; 52%. F, 178; 48%). BMI (Under, 15; 4.1%, Normal, 184; 184; 49.69%, Overweight, 128; 34.7% and Obese 42; 11.4%). smoking, (yes 114; 30.71%, No 234; 63.1%, ex 23; 6.2%). Nationality, (Saudi, 288; 77.6%, Non-Saudi; 88; 22.4%). Prevalence of back pain: Once in a lifetime, (305; 82.2%, never, 66; 17.8 %,) last twelve months (158; 42.6%, no pain, 213; 57.4%) past seven days (yes 106; 28.6%, no pain in 265; 71.4 %.) p = 0.028), Associated factors: feeling sad (0.002) uncomfortable furniture (p = 0.005), and gender (p < 0.001). Exercise duration and frequency exercising (p < 0.017) (p < 0.052) and Weightlifting (p < 0.065).

Conclusion: Back pain is a relatively common complaint experienced by people and is more common among athletes. Besides exercising, it is evident that uncomfortable sleeping conditions, mental well-being, and gender play a big role in spawning back pain.

ERAS protocol in laparoscopic cholecystectomy has a positive impact on the patient and the healthcare system and therefore, needs to be followed in all cases henceforth.
Assessing the Competencies of the Medical Faculty Graduates within the frame of Pre-Graduate Medical Education National Core Curriculum
Authors: Namal Fatih
Published: January 2023

In this descriptive study, it is aimed to determine the competencies of physicians according to NCC-2014, to create databases for current educational output, to consider graduate competencies while preparing medical faculty training curriculum and to make suggestions for education. For this purpose, a total of 501 physicians agreed to answer the questionnaire and working in designated military hospitals and military primary care examination centers and residents at Ankara University Faculty of Medicine Hospital were included in the study. The data were collected by the researcher by face-to-face interviews with the participants between 10 March 2016 and 30 June 2016. The scores of the physicians regarding the basic medical practices were collected under six main topics and compared with the minimum levels described in NCC-2014. As a result of the study, 161 (32.1%) participants were adequate in “history taking” applications, 78 (15.6%) participants were adequate in “recording, reporting and notification”, 72 (14.4%) participants were competent in “preventive medicine and community medicine practice”, 62 (12.4%) participants were competent in “interventional and noninterventional practice”, 26 (5.2%) participants were competent in “laboratory tests and other related procedures”, and 25 (5.0%) participants were competent in “general and problem focused physical examinations”. It has been determined that physicians do not receive adequate training in the medical faculty, especially in the field of forensic medicine and obstetrics and gynecology. Curriculum programs should be prepared that will include measures for the development of all application areas, especially the practices determined under the heading of “general and problem focused physical examinations” and “laboratory tests and other related procedures”, where the participants have the lowest proficiency.
