Maintaining a balance between work and personal life is a dream for anyone with multiple roles to play in their daily routines. Women journalists are no exception, and their work requires them to possess a broad range of knowledge and skills to deliver accurate and timely information to the public. Despite having multiple responsibilities in their personal lives, women journalists have embraced this challenge. However, issues such as long working hours, inflexible work schedules, excessive workloads, the dual responsibility of childcare, workplace discrimination, lack of support from supervisors and family, and the spillover of work into family life can make it challenging to maintain a healthy work-life balance. This study aims to explore the perception of women journalists towards work-life balance. The Spillover and Role Theories offer insights into the challenges faced by women journalists in balancing their personal and professional lives. The study conducted in-depth interviews with 16 journalists, including single and married women, working in various environments at the media headquarters and state bureau. The perception towards work-life balance was categorised into three themes: work and family environment, mental well-being, and personality traits. This article highlights the difficulties that women journalists face in managing their diverse roles during the convergence period of the media industry and emphasises the need to address work-life balance concerns in the Malaysian media sector. Keywords: Women, journalists, work-life balance, Spillover Theory, Role Theory.

This study aims to illustrate the struggle for the rights of women with disabilities in West Sumatra, Indonesia. In 2019, Drg Romi, a disabled female dentist, was targeted in a campaign attempting to cancel their standing as a civil servant. Data in the form of words, phrases, and sentences concerning Drg Romi in 2019 were gleaned from three West Sumatra newspapers (Haluan, Padang Ekspres, & Singgalang), which represented the total available printed media and passed the Press Council verification in West Sumatra. The data is in the form of information regarding the news production process, which was taken from the editorial leader of each newspaper. Data were collected by using observation, documentation, and interview techniques. Data analysis was conducted using qualitative techniques referred to as the extra lingual material method. The data was analyzed by writing memos during the research, coding the data, looking for themes and categories, discussing the data, and drawing conclusions. The results show that Drg Romi is positioned as both a subject and an object in the news sources. In both positions, the media managed to favorably position Drg Romi in a manner that benefited them and advocated for their fight for rights as a disabled woman. Keywords: Media advocacy, women's disabilities, struggle for rights, Drg Romi, Indonesia.

Sang Culture emerged among Chinese youth, showcasing digital expressions that encompass written words, audio clips, visuals and videos that portray feelings of despair and decadence. This phenomenon offers insight into the lived experiences and attitudes of Chinese Generation Z, commonly known as Gen Z. Rising from the challenges of the 2020 pandemic, the guarded and pessimistic mindset of this generation towards existential fears and uncertainties is distinctive, particularly on social media, where the youth find comfort in a sense of belonging, channelling their expressions through ironic wit and light-hearted jokes, resulting in not only personal healing but also shared amusement. While it is being embraced as a means of self-expression and discourse on societal norms, Sang Culture has faced criticism from conservative Chinese society for its perceived disruptive nature. In stark contrast to traditional beliefs and philosophies, Sang Culture and its cynicism are often considered a societal stain. Nevertheless, as China's youth continue to navigate their place in a rapidly changing society, Sang Culture remains a powerful force, reflecting the aspirations and frustrations of a generation seeking to carve out its own path. This study examined Gen Z through the Sang Culture on social media platforms and analysed social comparisons that emerge from the Sang Culture expressions online. The analysis deployed Festinger’s Social Comparison Theory and findings of this study underline how the creation of user-generated content concerning the Sang Culture compare their perceptions, beliefs, attitudes, and behaviours with those dictated or implied by societal realities. Keywords: Sang culture, generation Z, social media, user-generated content, social comparison theory.

Effective communication styles are essential to encourage understanding of expectations, effective workforce management, and organisational growth to stimulate employee work performance. This study explores the complex relationships between leadership styles, work performance, and communication styles. Employee commitment is found to have implications for organisational commitment aspects like responsibility, loyalty, and trust. Effective interpersonal and leadership communication encompasses relationships beyond and within the workplace. This study uses a questionnaire-based survey to investigate how leadership styles mediate the relationship between the factors of communication styles and job performance in Malaysian organisations. The perceptions of communication style, the mediating effect of leadership styles, and the relationship between communication style and job performance are investigated using quantitative data analysis using descriptive, inferential, and correlation tests to perform mediation analysis. The findings indicate the need for communication-focused training and engagement programmes and the significance of assertive communication styles for improved work performance. The study also establishes the critical need for leaders to comprehend the needs, motivations, and efficiency drivers of each team member. The study offers directions for future research, including larger geographic coverage, more communication variables, mixed-method techniques, and the investigation of other indirect effects. The study's conclusions give leaders practical advice on how to improve organisational communication for improved work performance and encourage employee trust and commitment. Keywords: Communication styles, leadership styles, performance, assertive communication, organisational communication.

Open and distance learning (ODL) refers to flexible educational opportunities regarding access and various knowledge acquisition methods. In the era of digital communication technologies, ODL offers flexible, self-directed learning techniques and comprehensive and engaging learning content. Most students at the Professional and Continuing Education (PACE) Universiti Utara Malaysia are working adults, meaning students would have to balance their employment and studies. It is a competitive industry, with each institution endeavouring to provide exceptional services to its stakeholders. The objectives of our study are 1) to understand students’ perceptions of PACE, particularly in ODL, and 2) to explore the motivation for students’ value co-creation, particularly in ODL. This study employed a qualitative method approach, namely, focus group discussions. The informants were current students from various learning centres (e.g., UUM Sintok, KL, JB, etc.). Our findings discovered four main themes for the perception of ODL students: communication engagement, service-dominant mindset, student experience, and knowledge sharing. Meanwhile, the motivation for students’ value co-creation in ODL is mainly because of attitude, active participants, facilities, satisfaction, brand loyalty and brand image. Our study provides some insights into value co-creation and how to position PACE's reputation in the minds of its stakeholders. As such, our findings were significant for PACE to communicate its corporate branding, and students may be more inclined to study at the university. Keywords: Open and Distance Learning (ODL), digital communication technology, university branding, distant learning students, Malaysia.

Authors: Evzikov G. Yu. , Neretin D. Yu.
Published: April 2024

COVID‑19‑associated osteomyelitis is a purulo‑necrotic complication of past coronaviral infection. The majority of described cases of this complication are caused by Mucorales fungi. Mucormycosis is a severe complication of COVID‑19 associated with high mortality rate. Most commonly it affects maxillary sinuses, facial bones, and orbits. Due to quick progression of the disease, it is important to remember the association between COVID‑19 infection and purulo‑necrotic lesions of the skull that can be complicated by brain involvement.

The article presents a very rare observation of COVID‑19‑associated osteomyelitis affecting the squamous part of the frontal bone complicated by formation of bilateral symmetrical subgaleal abscesses in the projection of the frontal eminences.
PROBLEMATIC ASPECTS OF FIXING INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM TRANSPORTATION TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORKS
Authors:   Yaroslav Mudryi National Law University, Kharkiv, Ukraine, Metelev O.P.
Published: April 2024

The article discusses some problematic aspects and features of fixing the course and results of an unspoken secret investigatory (detective) activity – the extracting information from transportation telecommunication networks (hereinafter – TTN). The author notes that taking into account the vast majority of secret investigatory (detective) activities (hereinafter – SIDA) related to the extracting information from TTN (more than 70% in relation to other types of SIDA), and the use of their results in the interests of criminal justice, a natural question arises to ensure the correct recording of the course and results of the SIDA. The conducted study of investigative and judicial practice clearly showed that there are certain problems of fixing this procedural action, which are caused both by the human factor (improper execution of procedural documents, neglect of regulatory requirements and instructions, banal formalism, etc.) and gaps and some imperfections in the regulatory settlement of this issue. This naturally leads to the recognition of the evidence provided by the prosecution at the court hearing, obtained as a result of extracting information from TTN, as improper, which negates the work of the pre-trial investigation bodies. The main purpose of this article is to reasonably prove the need to study the issue of fixing the course and results of extracting information from TTN, determining the requirements for this procedural action and for documents that would provide the information obtained during this SIDA, the legal status of evidence in criminal proceedings. According to the results of the analysis of the relevant legislation and the study of investigative and judicial practice, the author identified typical shortcomings in the preparation of protocols for recording the course and results of this SIDA, which led to the court’s recognition of the evidence as inadmissible. In this regard, the author formulated proposals for improving certain norms of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine and proposed a number of practical recommendations to prevent errors in the preparation of protocols on the conduct of this procedural action.

desarrollo de los sufijos -ĭcius e -īcius en la Iberorromania
Authors: Rainer Franz
Published: April 2024

: El presente artículo estudia la evolución de los sufijos latinos -ĬCIUS e -ĪCIUS en las lenguas iberorromances. Aunque en latín se dieron diferentes patrones relacionados con estos dos sufijos, en las lenguas románicas de la península ibérica surgieron todavía más. Para cada uno de estos patrones se determina el origen en latín o romance y se describe el mecanismo que lo convierte en un nuevo patrón. Como para estudiar estas cuestiones de la manera más adecuada es recomendable hacerlo desde una perspectiva amplia, se tendrán en cuenta también datos de otras lenguas romances cuando estos puedan contribuir a una mejor comprensión de la situación iberorromance. El sufijo con la «i» breve solo sobrevive en el sufijo compuesto -ARĬCIUS (p.ej. esp. caballeriza, caballerizo). Entre los adjetivos nominales, los tres nichos semánticos principales son: los relacionados con minerales (p.ej. ast. barrizu), con plantas (p.ej. ast. maderizu) y con animales o partes del cuerpo de estos (p.ej. ast. llobizu, llechizu). Aunque actualmente muchas de estas palabras solo se conservan en su forma nominalizada, esta clase de nombres también dieron lugar a nuevos patrones, como es el caso de los sufijos del tipo ast. rebolliza/rebollizu o de los nombres que se refieren a los malos olores, una particularidad del asturiano, ast. sidrizu. Los adjetivos temporales como ast. xinerizu u otoñizu son una innovación romance. Por su lado, los adjetivos aproximativos como ast. enfermizu parecen conectar con el latín tardío, a pesar de que los adjetivos vinculados a colores del tipo esp. rojizo podrían ser calcos más recientes del italiano. La función elativa queda restringida al altoaragonés (p.ej. feízo, «muy feo»). En los adjetivos deverbales latinos, como EMPTĪCIUS, el sufijo en seguida se reanalizó como -TĪCIUS. Las lenguas iberorromances preservaron los usos secundarios de este tipo de adjetivo (p.ej. ast. algamadizu, aforradizu, rompedizu, esbariadizu), mientras que el significado pasivo original resulta extraño. El asturiano, además, ha creado también un patrón de sinonimia con -diegu (p.ej. aforradiegu).
Exploraciones de toponimia documental sanabresa
Authors: RIESCO CHUECA Pascual
Published: April 2024

El habla sanabresa fue objeto de estudios precoces y de calado desde los principios de la reflexión filológica asturianoleonesa. La toponimia menor d’estas contornas, particularmente rica, se recogió monográficamente en el marco de unos pocos términos municipales. Como resultado, existen ejemplos particulares, seleccionados para ilustrar fenómenos lingüísticos que decoran obras de carácter general. Sin embargo, se aprecia una falta que es necesaria suplir: la ausencia de estudios que empiecen la diacronía de estos topónimos, a la luz del corpus documental tan rico disponible desde principios de la Edad Moderna. Los textos notariales, pese al efecto nivelador del castellano, dejan adivinar hechos de gran interés para la filología del occidente leonés. Estás páginas se consagran a realizar una primer exploración de esta vía.

Published: April 2024

Using the method based on the retrograde axonal transport of the horseradish peroxidase, striopallidal afferent projections to the pedunculopontine tegmental nucleus (PPN) of the dog brain were studied. It was shown that the main source of these projections was pallidum, since the projections were directed both to the compact and diffuse parts of this nucleus from all its structures: nucleus entopeduncularis, globus pallidus and ventral pallidum. In the striatal complex, namely in the nucleus accumbens, only single labeled neurons projecting exceptionally to the compact part of the PPN, were detected Since in the distribution of the projection fibers, originating from the functionally various territorries of the striopallidum and directed to the individual substructures of the PPN, no topical elements were detected, the separation of the functionally specific (motor and limbic) regions in the PPN, on the basis of findings obtained, appears impossible.

Published: April 2024

Mammoth Mountain is a 50,000- to 200,000-year-old cumulovolcano standing on the southwestern rim of Long Valley in eastern California. On 4 May 1989, two M = 1 earthquakes beneath the south flank of the mountain marked the onset of a swarm that has continued for more than 6 months. In addition to its longevity, noteworthy aspects of this persistent swarm include (1) an exponential-like increase in the rate of activity through the first month; (2) a vertically oriented, planar distribution of hypocenters at depths between 6 and 9 km with a north-northeast strike (roughly perpendicular to the average T-axis orientation for the swarm earthquakes); (3) recurring spasmodic bursts (rapid-fire sequences of similar-sized earthquakes with overlapping coda) and occasional earthquakes with enhanced low-frequency energy; (4) a uniform temporal distribution of the four largest (M ≈ 3) events over the first 4 months of the swarm with a cumulative seismic moment for the entire sequence through 30 September corresponding to a single M ≈ 4 earthquake; (5) a b-value of 1.2; and (6) submicrostrain perturbations on the nearby borehole dilatometer, the first of which led the onset of swarm activity by more than 2 weeks. These aspects of the swarm, together with its location along the southern extension of the youthful Mono-Inyo volcanic chain, which last erupted 500 to 600 years ago, point to a magmatic source for the modest but persistent influx of strain energy into the crust beneath Mammoth Mountain.

Published: April 2024

Palisaded neutrophilic and granulomatous dermatitis (PNGD) is an inflammatory cutaneous reaction that is associated with underlying autoimmune diseases. In rare cases, PNGD has been attributed to systemic medications. Here we report one case of a cutaneous injection-site reaction that occurred after intradermal administration of an experimental Wilms Tumor 1 (WT1) protein-derived peptide vaccine in a woman being treated for recurrent ovarian cancer. This is the first reported case of a PNGD-like reaction associated with immunotherapy injections. In this article, we discuss this case and summarize the literature related to the diagnosis and management of PNGD, as well as other injection site reactions related to immunotherapies and experimental vaccines.

Authors:   The Korea Association of Yeolin Education, Lee Heewon , Choi Youngjin , Lee Misook
Published: April 2024

This study was conducted through an MLST-II diagnosis on undergraduate students experiencing academic difficulties with their undergraduate studies, with an aim to identify and analyze the factors that were affecting their academic achievement. For this purpose, the 789 undergraduate students who participated in the MLST-II diagnosis were divided into five groups according to their level of academic achievement: low, low-medium, medium, high-medium, and high. For each group, an analysis was conducted on the levels of personality, motivational, emotional, and behavioral characteristics of the students. The correlation between the sub-characteristics in each area and academic achievement was also analyzed. The results of the analysis confirmed that emotional characteristics such as depression, anxiety, and irritability interfered with behaviors such as concentration and time management, and also had an effect on personality characteristics such as self-efficacy, outcome expectancies, and conscientiousness. In particular, psychological difficulties such as depression, anxiety, and irritability decreased the students’ motivation to learn, more so in groups with low academic achievement, which resulted in a lower level of academic achievement. This confirmed the importance of addressing emotional characteristics, such as depression, anxiety, irritability, and improving academic motivation in order to increase the level of academic achievement of undergraduate students. The results of this study may be used as a basis for utilizing specific counseling strategies that take into consideration characteristics and factors related to academic achievement in order to resolve academic issues.
Elementary Teachers’ Understanding and Implementation of Non-face-to-face Education
Authors:   The Korea Association of Yeolin Education, Lee Jin Suk
Published: April 2024

This study investigated how elementary school teachers implemented non-face-to-face education during the COVID-19 pandemic situation, how they understood it during its implementation and finally discussed its implications. For this purpose, this study conducted in-depth interviews with 12 elementary school teachers and analyzed the collected data using qualitative content analysis. The result of the study found that teachers understood online education as a ‘complement to face-to-face education’ and had implemented non-face-to-face education with ‘an emphasis on reaching the basic academic level’. In addition, although online education was an inevitable choice to prevent the loss of education, the results showed the perception that it is a new education method that goes beyond the limitations of face-to-face education and is determined by teachers’ interests and efforts. Meanwhile, in terms of implementing non-face-to-face education, many implementation forms reduced and reorganized the educational contents as well as it divided educational roles through understanding and collaboration with colleagues, and used new methods for communication among participants. The factors of the implementation of online education were analyzed by dividing them into teachers, curriculum, and class environment, and the conclusions were as follows. First, teachers' interests and awareness of the educational community must be cultivated. Second, teachers must develop their ability to reconstruct educational content and the education authorities should establish a ‘reduced curriculum for the online education’ and ‘online learning center’. Third, improvement of the training system for teachers is required to establish an online class platform and learning material support center and increase teacher participation.

Authors:   The Korea Association of Yeolin Education, Kim Suzie , Chung Jae Young
Published: April 2024

The purpose of this study is to analyze the evaluation criteria of the university basic competency assessment for universities based on Astin's learner-centered ease of use perspective. For this purpose, the I (Inputs) - E (Environment) - O (Outcomes) model of Astin (1993) and the analytical framework proposed by Kim Hyung-ran and Kim Seok-woo (2019) in their study on the analysis of evaluation indicators were reorganized according to the direction of the study. The main data for the analysis of the evaluation criteria are the indicators of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd cycles of the university basic competency assessment, and the evaluation indicators are categorized into I (educational inputs), E (learning environment), and O (educational outcomes) processes and university functions and roles according to their nature. The policy implications derived from the analysis of the evaluation indicators of the basic competency assessment of universities are as follows. First, it is necessary to propose education policies that support institutional stability so that universities can invest in creating a learning environment and create value. Second, future university assessments should be conducted in a way that builds on the discourse of ease of access to education. Third, university assessment should serve as a support mechanism that leads to synergistic change by focusing on the learner-centered value of ease. Fourth, the policy frame and content of university assessment need to be harmonized. Fifth, future university assessment criteria should be used as a basis for providing directions for future university education based on the concept of learner-centered ease of use.

Сахарный диабет — распространенное заболевание, которое затрагивает более 230 миллионов людей по всему миру. В Российской Федерации доля населения, страдающего сахарным диабетом, составляет 5-6%, и около 90% из них имеют сахарный диабет 2 типа. Реабилитация пациентов с этим заболеванием является сложной и многофакторной задачей. Сахарный диабет занимает третье место среди неинфекционных заболеваний, уступая только онкологическим и сердечно-сосудистым заболеваниям. Сосудистые, метаболические нарушения и неврологические осложнения, связанные с диабетом, приводят к развитию изменений во всех тканях и органах организма, включая ткани пародонта. Диабет является одним из факторов риска для развития поражений пародонта. В некоторых случаях стоматолог может быть первым, кто обнаружит наличие сахарного диабета, поскольку начальная стадия диабета часто сопровождается пародонтитом у пациентов. У пациентов с хроническим генерализованным пародонтитом, особенно с отсутствием части зубов, ситуация становится еще более сложной. В процессе использования съемного зубного протеза на его поверхности накапливается большое количество микроорганизмов. В то же время, в полости рта происходят изменения в качественном и количественном составе микробной флоры. Длительное нарушение баланса микробной флоры может привести к развитию протезного (токсико-химического) стоматита или воспалительной реакции слизистой оболочки полости рта, что вызывает сенсибилизацию и изменение иммунологической реактивности организма. Физико-химические свойства материалов, из которых изготовлены конструкционные элементы зубного протеза, играют важную роль в адгезии микроорганизмов к его поверхности. Изучение данных проблем, особенно важно для повышения эффективности ортопедического лечения пациентов с хроническим генерализованным пародонтитом, которое осложнено частичным отсутствием зубов на фоне сахарного диабета. Такие исследования представляются нам актуальными.

В статье представлен клинический случай лечения пациента с раком прямой кишки, осложнившимся развитием инфицированной биломы. В лечении онкологических заболеваний достигнуты значительные успехи в последние годы. Однако инфекции, связанные с оказанием медицинской помощи, могут ухудшать прогноз после хирургических вмешательств. В таком случае актуальной становится не только борьба с онкологическим процессом, но и с инфекционными осложнениями. Краеугольным камнем лечения становится антибиотикотерапия, которая может быть осложнена развитием резистентности микробной флоры. При назначении антибиотиков следует учитывать наличие факторов риска полирезистентных штаммов, что позволяет оптимизировать стартовую антибиотикотерапию.
