Introduction: The issues of incorrectness and incompleteness for written prescriptions may result to dispensing errors and unintended outcomes of care. The objective of the study was to assess the legibility of handwritten prescriptions and adherence to W.H.O. prescription writing guidelines in Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital Zaria.
Method: A cross-sectional prospective study design was used, and existing prescriptions were sampled from selected in-patient and outpatient pharmacy units of Ahmadu Bello University Teaching Hospital Zaria. This was approved by the ethics and research committee of the institution. The prescriptions were then evaluated for quality based on the layout, legibility, and clarity of the details in the prescriptions and screened for medication errors.
Result: The extent of prescribing drugs by generic name was (68.37%), the legibility percentage was moderate and the percentage of prescriptions in which details of the drug, route of administration, and duration of treatment were complete was 85.23%, 80.80%, and 82.40%, respectively. The doctor's signature (84.87%) was present in the prescriptions. Many of the prescribers did not use to indicate patients’ weight, age, and clinic on prescriptions, these are deviations from good prescribing practices while total medication error was 38.01%.
Conclusion: Prescribers have a duty of care to their patient and a professional duty to their colleagues (pharmacists) to ensure drug prescriptions are readily identifiable. Interventional techniques such as the use of printed or electronic prescriptions can improve the ease of interpreting information and reduce medication errors.
On the nature, composition and gas content of epigenetic mineralization in the salt column of the Verkhnekamskoe deposit (on the example of the Usolsky mine)
Authors: Сhaikovskiy I. I. , Ivanov O. V. , Bubnova M. V. , Fedorov T. V.
Published: March 2023

Research subject. The paper considers the tectonic position of the zone of epigenetic mineralization in the salt strata of one of the mines of the Verkhnekamskoye deposit, the gross and microelement chemical composition, gas content and component composition of gases.

Materials and methods. To assess the composition of the original and epigenetic formations, structural and geological observations were carried out in mine workings, sampling, determination of the gross chemical composition (XRF, Bruker S8 Tiger spectrometer), trace elements (Aurora M90 inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer), gas content and component composition of associated gases (gas chromatograph 450-GC company “Varian, Inc”).

Results. It has been established that vein mineralization fills delamination cracks in the cores of the synclinal fold and is accompanied by zones of halite leaching and sylvite recrystallization. Further down the section, possible sources of K-oversaturated brines are recorded, which are generated in numerous small structures such as pop-ups or kink bands. The enrichment in light hydrocarbon gases, as well as easily soluble salts and mobile elements (KCl, CaCl2, MgCl2, Br, Rb, Li, Sr, Zn, Cu, Co, Te, Se, Sn, Pb), reflects their formation from sediment-brines mobilized during folding from sylvinite rocks.

Conclusions. One of the mechanisms for the mobilization of fluids, salts, and trace elements in the salt column is characterized, which is associated with the folded appearance of small scattered chambers in the lower silyvinite bed KrIII and subsequent pulsating migration up the section along the synclinal bends of larger folds in the bed KrII. It is shown that in the process of formation of the zone of epigenetic mineralization, differentiation of small elements and gases occurs, which is associated with different sorption properties of halite, sylvin, and clay material.
Possible influence of CaO admixture in the Pre-Ural Foredeep terrigenous rocks on the determination of the source rocks composition based on geochemical data
Authors: Maslov А. V. , Mizens G. A. , Badida L. V.
Published: March 2023

Research subject. The article discusses the analysis results of correlations between the calcium oxide content and a number of other rock-forming oxides in the Asselian sandstones and in the Middle–Upper Permian clay rocks of the Pre-Ural trough with some of their inherent ratios of rare and trace elements (La/Sc, Th/Cr, Th/Co, Ce/Cr, etc.), which act as traditional indicators of source rocks composition.

Methods. Our main method is to analyze the correlation coefficients values between different pairs of oxide-indicator ratios. During the discussion, we proceeded from the fact that a statistically significant (both positive and negative) correlation between calcium oxide, ignition loss, or magnesium oxide, on the one hand, and the values of indicator ratios of rare and trace elements, on the other hand, suggest the dependence of the noted ratios on the features of the aluminosilicate matrix replacement with carbonate minerals.

Results. We have established, there is a statistically significant positive or negative correlation between the calcium oxide content in Permian terrigenous rocks (different sedimentary intervals of the Pre-Ural Foredeep) and some indicator ratios of rare and trace elements (Asselian sandstones – Th/Cr, Ce/Cr and Eu/Eu*, Urzhum–Viatsk clay rocks – La/Sc, Th/Co, (La/Yb)N, etc.). As a result, the values of these ratios depend to some extent on the carbonate minerals content (mainly calcite) in terrigenous rocks. These carbonate minerals corrode the aluminosilicate matrix and in one way or another change the primary contents and ratios of impurity elements. On the contrary, there is no significant correlation between the CaO content in the Asselian sandstones and the values of La/Sc, Th/Co, etc. There is no correlation between the CaO content and the Ce/Cr ratio in the Urzhum–Viatsk clay rocks.

Conclusions. We suggest, the correlation (not statistically significant at 5% confidence level) between calcium oxide content (in sandstones and clay rocks) and some indicator ratios of rare and trace elements can be considered as an indication that such ratios can be used to reconstruct the source rocks composition.
On the nature of the Zhamanshin crater (Northern Cis-Aralian Region)
Authors: Bykadorov V. A. , Gorkin G. M. , Antipov M. P. , Knizhnik K. E.
Published: March 2023

Research subject. The Zhamanshin structure is located in the northern Aral Sea region and represents the outcrops of pre-Mesozoic rocks among Paleogene deposits. This structure has been known in the literature as a young meteorite crater for more than half a century.

Aim. To consider all available geological and geophysical information on the structure and material composition of rocks and explain the development features of the Zhamanshin structure in relation to its position within the Late Paleozoic suture-collision zone of the Eastern-Uralian fold system.

Materials and methods. The materials of geological surveys of various scales, as well as the interpretation of geophysical data, satellite images, data on the material composition of rock samples and paleotectonic reconstructions were analysed. In addition, the published literature on the meteorite origin of the Zhamanshin structure was analysed.

Results. The main structural features of the Zhamanshin structure are rather associated with the accretion-subduction processes in the Paleozoic and strike-slip movements, especially active in the Pliocene, than with an impact event. The young age of glasses (from 10 thousand to 50 Ma) remains unproven due to unreliable methods used. The composition of the glasses allows them to be attributed to Paleozoic volcanic rocks, while some samples of slags and glasses may be of technogenic origin.

Conclusions. Almost all arguments in favour of the meteorite origin of the Zhamanshin structure are questioned. A more realistic conclusion is that it has formed by deep tectonic and geological processes. The Zhamanshin structure is a dissected rounded upland with a ring of Paleozoic rocks along the edges and a hollow in the middle, which is associated with an eroded Carboniferous caldera. After the collision in the middle of the Carboniferous, the entire Northern Aral Sea remained an area of denudation until the beginning of the Cretaceous. After that, terrigenous lacustrine-alluvial strata up to 300 m thick had accumulated. During the Paleogene and Miocene, this upland with the remnants located along a circular rampart tens of meters high was covered by marine and continental sediments. In the Pliocene, the area was subjected to active strikeslip movements with the formation of the Tasaran mega-anticline with the Zhamanshin, North-Zhamanshin and Tasaran uplifts. The Irgiz-Tobolsk shear-thrust had limited and uplifted the western flank of the Zhamanshin structure, while feathering faults resulted in the formation and subsidence of a rounded depression around the Paleozoic caldera in the centre of Zhamanshin.
What Freedom?: Pushkin’s “From Pindemonte”
Authors:   Institute for Russian and Altaic Studies, CBNU, Choi Jong Sul
Published: March 2023

The aim of this work is to shed light on the ideal of “another freedom” expressed by Pushkin in the poem “From Pindemonte” in the context of modern concepts of freedom. It specifically intends to argue against the view of A. Etkind, who understands “another freedom” as equivalent to Isaiah Berlin's “negative freedom.” Whether Etkind's view is valid is examined in the context of the debate over Berlin's theory of freedom in modern political philosophy. Pushkin, who belongs to liberals, shares with Berlin the position of anti-rationalism and anti-utopianism. Modern republican critique of Berlin's liberal view of freedom can also be applied to Pushkin's political ideal of “enlightened despotism” in his later years. As such, there are several valid reasons to regard Pushkin's “another freedom” as the same paradigm as Berlin's “negative freedom.” However, Pushkin's position is different from Berlin's value pluralism. Pushkin's “another freedom” is not limited to “negative freedom.” In Pushkin's poem, both ‘autonomy’ and ‘authenticity’ of “positive freedom” are embodied. In a strict sense, Pushkin's “another freedom” differs from Western liberals' understanding of freedom. “Another freedom” that Pushkin wants is ‘anarchist individualism’ in its essence. The fundamentally different attributes of Pushkin's “another freedom” and Berlin's “negative freedom” in pursuit of the universal ideal of freedom of private life raise the issue of cultural differences in understanding the concept of freedom, which will be discussed in another study.
The Introduction of Compulsory Medical Insurance in Kazakhstan: Applying Kingdon’s Multiple Streams Framework
Authors:   Institute for Russian and Altaic Studies, CBNU, Kim Tae Kyung
Published: March 2023

In November 2015, Kazakhstan introduced the “Compulsory Social Health Insurance System (the System) in the social insurance format,” first among the Central Asian countries, including Russia. By introducing the system, the country shifted from the previous government-led medical insurance system that had originated from the era of the former Soviet Union to that in the “social insurance format.” Under the new system, every citizen pays health insurance premiums and bears the collective responsibility for public health. The process of introducing the System was quite abrupt, which was possible because Kazakhstan is an authoritative nation where the president of the country exerts enormous power. In this regard, this study alters and modifies Kingdon's multiple streams framework model, which is useful for analyzing such an abrupt process of policy change by period, and applies the revised version as the analysis framework. The analysis period was classified into three periods based on the national mood, the presence and direction of policies, etc. In addition, the intensity of the three streams(problems, politics and policies), and the extent of the policy entrepreneur’s role were set as the specific components of the analytical framework. As a result of the analysis, the policy change succeeds in the third period(Jan. 2014-Jan.2020). The results confirmed that when the aforementioned model is applied, policy entrepreneurs played the most important role in the policy change process in Kazakhstan for the introduction of the compulsory social health insurance system. Nazarbayev, a policy entrepreneur, first recognized the necessity of improving the public health budget indicators, which had been deteriorating since 2010, from the perspective of the flow of policy problems. Based on his realization, Nazarbayev tried to strengthen the country's financial soundness by resolving the identified policy problems and further, he intended to achieve the advancement and modernization of the country. Aggressive and enthusiastic efforts and firm and decisive willingness of the policy entrepreneur finally led to the successful policy change. Consequently, the System was established and implemented nationwide in Kazakhstan from January 2020, starting with partial implementation in July 2017.

Published: March 2023

Background: The objectives of this study were to determine the proportion of uncontrolled hypertension in hypertensive patients followed up on an outpatient basis and to investigate the factors associated with this poor control. Methods: This was a cross-sectional analytical study of 167 hypertensive patients followed in eight health facilities in Goma city. Uncontrolled hypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) ≥90 mmHg. Results: The proportion of uncontrolled hypertension was 95.2%. In bivariate analysis, no factor was associated with uncontrolled hypertension. Conclusion: Almost all hypertensive patients in our study were poorly controlled by antihypertensive treatment. These results highlight the need for a cohort study to determine the factors associated with this excessively high prevalence of uncontrolled hypertension in hypertensive patients on antihypertensive drugs, in order to allow targeted actions to try to control hypertension by antihypertensive drugs.

Published: March 2023

Objective. The aim of the study was to develop the safest technique for surgical disconnection of high, unformed jejunal fistulas, so as to avoid problems with detection the intestine leading to the fistula and to avoid complications of viscerolysis.Material and methods. The authors present their experience in surgical management of 35 patients with high delimited unformed debilitating jejunal fistulas. Of these, 22 patients were included in the comparison group; their fistulas were closed or disconnected with the known methods. Findings obtained from other 172 patients with adhesive intestinal obstruction after infectious complications of laparotomic wounds and topography of visceroparietal planar adhesions of the peritoneum were analyzed. After studying the nature and location of visceroparietal adhesions, the authors could develop a technique for proximal disconnection of high delimited unformed debilitating jejunal fistulas using posterolateral access which was applied in 13 patients from the studied group.Research results. The proposed technique of unilateral disconnection of high unformed jejunal fistulas reduces duration, damage and risk of prolonged bowel deserosing. As a result, a significant decrease in postoperative mortality from 59.1 ± 9.2% to 23.1 ± 11.2% (t=2.5; p<0.05) was registered. Due to the preoperative endoscopic marking showing direction to the fistula of intestinal loop and duodenojejunal junction, intraoperative orientation was more accurate and took much less time than in the comparison group. The posterolateral surgical approach to the fistula in the jejunal loop reduced the risk of its damage, since there was no need for extensive enterolysis anymore. Therefore, postoperative period in patients of the studied group was better and with fewer complications than in the comparison group.Conclusion. The posterolateral access prevented extended viscerolysis and allowed to put a reliable and atraumatic interintestinal anastomosis so as to disconnect the fistula. The unilateral disconnection of the jejunal fistula at postoperative intestinal paresis unloaded the interintestinal anastomosis, similar to Meidl’s definitive jejunostomy. The abovementioned positive aspects of the proposed surgical intervention allowed to significantly decrease postoperative complications and mortality rate, if to compare with outcomes after known surgical interventions with a similar purpose.
Innovative Approach to Enhanced Well Integrity Evaluation in Unconventional Completions with Fiberglass Casings
Authors: Hijles Ali A , Waluyo Fauzia , Singh Kamaljeet , Benslimani Abderrahmane
Published: March 2023

More wells are being completed with fiberglass casings to overcome the challenge of corrosion of the carbon steel casings. Fiberglass casing is expected to increase the longevity of the wells. The wells completed with fiberglass still require the operators to confirm that the casing is in good condition and also the annular cement sheath is able to provide mechanical support and zonal isolation. The evaluation poses a challenge as the properties of the fiberglass casing are very different from those of the carbon steel casing. Studies were performed in 2018 to test the ultrasonic physics in fiberglass, and this paper describes the challenges and how we developed an innovative data acquisition, processing, and interpretation workflow to properly evaluate both the fiberglass casing condition and the annular cement condition.

It was observed through surface experiments that the conventional ultrasonic technique applicable to carbon steel casing is not valid for fiberglass casing because the velocity and acoustic impedance of fiberglass are much lower than they are for steel; therefore, there is no resonance in fiberglass. A new interpretation workflow was developed and applied to raw data to build specific parameters for the fiberglass samples to determine the acoustic properties: acoustic impedance, attenuation factor, and velocity. It is for the first time that data have been acquired in a very large fiberglass casing.

Fiberglass casings were run in a water well, and wireline acoustic logs were successfully acquired for cement and corrosion evaluation across 18-in. and 10-in. fiberglass casings. The interpretation workflow was applied to raw field data, and a comprehensive cement map and corrosion answer products were obtained with an acceptable quality control level. The paper will review the data from three wells.

This innovative data acquisition, processing, and interpretation workflow can be deployed in wells for decision making prior to completion and production. The new method also opens up future opportunities for the evaluation of noncarbon steel casings, and, with knowledge of mechanical and acoustic properties, the method can be adapted to perform a full evaluation. This method is expected to provide valuable information for wells planned to be completed with fiberglass casing.

Published: March 2023

We present a complete open-hardware and software Materials Acceleration Platform (MAP) for sonochemical synthesis of nanocrystals using a versatile tool-changing platform (Jubilee) configured for automated ultrasound application, a liquid-handling robot (Opentrons OT2) and a well-plate spectrometer. An automated high-throughput protocol was developed demonstrating the synthesis of CdSe nanocrystals using sonochemistry and different combinations of sample conditions, including precursor and ligand compositions and concentrations. Cavitation caused by ultrasound fields cause local and transient increases in temperature and pressure sufficient to drive the decomposition of organometalic precursors to drive the chemical reaction leading to nanocrystal formation. A total of 625 unique sample conditions were prepared and analyzed in triplicate with an individual sample volume of as little as 0.5 mL, which drastically reduced chemical waste and experimental times. The rapid onset of cavitation and quick dissipation of energy results in fast nucleation with little nanocrystal growth leading to the formation of small nanocrystals or magic-size clusters (MSCs) depending on composition. Using the effective mass approximation, the calculated QDs diameters obtained in all our experimental conditions ranged between 1.3 and 2.1 nm, which was also validated with small angle xray scattering (SAXS). Polydispersity, QD shape and optical properties largely varied depending on the concentration of ligands present in solution. Statistical analysis of the spectroscopic data corroborates the qualitative relationships observed from the optical characterization of the samples with the model-agnostic SHAP analysis. The complete workflow relies on relatively low-cost and open-source systems (< $15k for both robotic platforms). Automation and the reduced volumes also allows for cost-efficient experimentation, increasing the accessibility of this MAP. The high-throughput capabilities of the automated sonication platform, the extensible nature of the Jubilee system, and the modular nature of the protocol, make the workflow adaptable to a variety of future studies, including other nanocrystal design spaces, emulsification processes, and nanoparticle re-dispersion or exfoliation.

Published: March 2023

The Institute for Certified Reference Materials (ICRM) issued for the first time certified reference materials (CRM 11777-2021) of the mass fraction of hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen in titanium-based materials, i.e., titanium alloy 2V (ISO 1-1) and titanium VT 1-00 (ISO 1-2). The finished material is presented in the form of cylinders 2.5 mm in diameter and 5-6 mm height. The mass of a cylinder is about 0.1 g. To certify gas-forming elements, we used the methods of fusion under inert gas flow (hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen) and high-temperature vacuum extraction with mass spectroscopy (hydrogen). The analyzers were calibrated using CRM, a gas dose (for hydrogen), and a substance of constant stoichiometric composition (potassium nitrate). Conditions for the determination of the mass fraction of hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen in titanium and titanium alloys using an ELTRA ONH-2000 gas analyzer in solid materials have been refined in the analytical laboratory ICRM. The accuracy indicators (assigned characteristics) of the measurement procedure were determined using a great bulk of experimental data.

The last four years in the activities of accredited conformity assessment bodies have been marked by global modernization of the FSIS (Federal State Information System) of the Federal Service for Accreditation and e-services of the national accreditation system. The accredited conformity assessment bodies (ICRM among them) encountered a number of problems which have arisen in this regard, i.e., the impossibility of complying the requirements of normative legal acts being put into effect, the unstable operation of the functionality and, as a result, the disruption of the rated deadlines for providing information about the activities of an accredited body, ineffectual appeals to technical support, impossibility to realize the requirements of accreditation experts when working with the accreditation scope configurator. Thus, the digitalization which has been realized by the Federal Service for Accreditation failed to bring the desired results and save time of the accredited bodies.

This study was undertaken to identify the microsatellite markers characteristic of rubber tree genotypes, producers of natural rubber. Twelve pairs of microsatellite primers obtained from expressed sequence tags (EST), available in the GENBANK genomic bank, were used to screen a sample of 40 individuals, that is, 8 per genotype. These microsatellite loci are di, tri or tetranucleotides, patterned perfect, imperfect, compound or complex. This study on the GT1, PB217, IRCA41, IRCA230 and IRCA331 genotypes, recommended in Ivory Coast, showed that it is possible to characterize them by using three microsatellite loci, such as Hb36, Hb43 and Hb110. The abundance of repeats observed in the genome of rubber tree clones was similar to those reported in other works. These can be exploited and used in rubber tree clonal improvement programs.
EXISTING TRENDS OF HERITAGE CONSERVATION IN SHIMLA: A HILL TOWN IN INDIA
Authors: Bansal Kanika , Chhabra Pankaj
Published: March 2023

India is bestowed with rich cultural diversity manifested by a wide range of tangible heritage resources. The formal inception of the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) during colonial rule paved way for heritage conservation protecting the National Monuments pan India that are less than 0.01% of the total existing heritage resources. Though the State Archaeology Department and the National Monuments Authority have taken various initiatives at the state levels, the adopted conservation process lacks an integrated approach due to the involvement of a wide array of stakeholders ranging from the Central Government to the local authorities to the various conservation groups. Each of these agencies employs vivid funding sources and mechanisms and variable sets of guidelines and norms with diversity in delivery models for various heritage conservation projects limiting the conservation process to piecemeals. Shimla, a colonial hill town in the north of India, and the state capital of Himachal Pradesh is home to vast stock of tangible and intangible heritage resources. Amidst rapid growth and urbanization, over the past two decades, several initiatives have been taken by the state government of Himachal Pradesh (GoHP) in resonance with the urban local bodies of Shimla but only a few of the conservation projects have seen success. However, the findings of the research bring out that though the GoHP has been proactive in protecting its heritage resources, however, a large part of the heritage resources in Shimla remain in a state of neglect and lack maintenance and management. This is because of the complexity involved in the conception and implementation of heritage conservation because of the vastness of heritage resources and the involvement of diverse groups of stakeholders in the process, as the role of urban local bodies directly impacts the efficiency of the conservation program. The study brings out the heritage conservation process adopted in Shimla by various government agencies.

A Aprendizagem Baseada em Projetos ampara-se no princípio da autonomia e da problematização como movimento central do processo de ensino e aprendizagem. Ela pressupõe um processo de reflexão sobre a própria prática, de forma a estabelecer diferentes relações entre os objetos do conhecimento e o cotidiano, resultando em compreensões que conduzem a diversas atitudes ante às situações vivenciadas dentro e fora do espaço escolar. Neste contexto, o estudante é estimulado a construir, testar e reconstruir conhecimentos que lhe propiciem desenvolver competências necessárias a sua vida pessoal e atuação profissional, aproximando sua vivência em sociedade à teoria aprendida em sala de aula. Como a Educação Escolar pressupõe formação integral, mesmo em oferta de diferentes modalidades de ensino, a exemplo da Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA) e da Educação Profissional e Técnica, o Projeto Integrador, constante na Proposta Pedagógica dos Cursos de Ensino Médio Técnico Integrado à Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJATEC/MA) e aqui delineado, consiste em uma metodologia educacional ativa que suscita a integração dos saberes das Áreas do Conhecimento (Formação Geral Básica) aos da Formação Profissional (Base Técnica). Essa metodologia constitui uma forma de garantir espaço e tempo no currículo para a integração dos conhecimentos, sem desconsiderar as especificidades disciplinares. Nesse contexto, essa obra apresenta a proposta pedagógica do Programa EJATEC no estado do Maranhão, o roteiro para elaboração do Projeto Integrador, bem como orientações para o planejamento e a execução desta modalidade de projeto.

Background: Chronic kidney disease is a progressive loss in renal function that is more accepted as global public health importance and its magnitude is overgrowing in the least developed countries like Ethiopia. No data was found in Debre Birhan Central Ethiopia on the magnitude of chronic kidney disease among type 2 diabetes patients. Methods: Institution-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 327 at Debre Berhan Referral Hospital from March to June 2019 in Adult (≥ 18 years) type 2 diabetes follow-up patients who volunteered to give informed written consent were included in the study. Systematic random sampling was used. Data were collected by interviews using structured and pre-tested questionnaires. Descriptive statistics of the continuous and categorical variables were done. The bi-variable and multivariable logistic regression was done to show the net effect of explanatory variables on chronic renal disease. Results: A total of 327 study participants were involved in the final analysis. The Prevalence of CKD among type 2 diabetic patients was 15.9%. A significant association was found with age > 60 years [AOR 3.5 (95% CI 1.8-6.8)], alcoholic patients [AOR 2.4 (95% CI 1.2-5.1)], glycated hemoglobin levels above 7% [AOR 2.5 (95 CI 1.5-4.1)], higher level of LDL greater than 100 g/dl [AOR 2.7 (95% CI 1.9-4)] and lower level of HDL [AOR 2.9 (95% CI 1.4-6)]. Conclusion: The magnitude of chronic kidney disease among type 2 diabetic follow-up patients was 15.9%. Estimated GFR should be determined for diabetic patients at regular intervals of time for earlier diagnosis of chronic kidney disease.

Sustainable business model innovation (SBMI) introduced a unique frontier in current business operations and innovation management. Despite the numerous advantages of SBMI to contemporary business strategy, most established firms face challenges in its successful implementation. Through a systematic review process (SRP), the paper attempted to critically evaluate and analyze the previous outcome on the barriers and drivers to SBMI. The research explored 42 prior studies to identify the thematic study areas, highlight the research gaps, and outline future propositions and agendas. The research thoroughly evaluates the state-of-the-art regarding barriers and drivers to implement SBMI. The SRP approach utilized in the study sheds light on the intricacies of SBMI by highlighting six critical barriers: institutional, organizational, strategic, resource allocation, technological, and financial barriers that hinder the successful deployment of SBMI. In addition, the study’s findings indicated that organizational learning, knowledge management, dynamic capabilities resource mobilization, innovative business activities, and human resource development could be a catalyst to the successful implementation of SBMI. Furthermore, the study highlighted some critical gaps and agendas for future research on SBMI. This study contributes to the literature on business model innovation and offers a practical outlook that can facilitate firms and policymakers in developing strategies to improve their business model.

Published: March 2023

In addition to affecting millions of people worldwide, the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is putting a strain on healthcare systems. A descriptive cross-sectional study included medical students from 5 medical schools in Sudan (January to April 2021), to determine their perceptions towards the COVID-19 pandemic in Sudan and to ascertain the sources from which they obtain information. They were approached through random sampling. Bloom’s cut-off of 80% was used to determine good knowledge (>32 out of 40), positive attitude (>40 out of 50), and good practice (>29 out of 36). The study included 396 medical students (from 1st to 5th year), the majority were females (65.7%). Their mean age was 21.3± 4 years. Overall, 86 (21.7%) had good knowledge, 129 (32.5%) had a positive attitude, and 190 (47.9%) had good practices. Most of students used social media and mass media as sources of information about COVID-19. In conclusion, a considerable number of undergraduate medical students had positive attitudes and practices against COVID-19, yet only a few had adequate knowledge and depended on social media as a source of information. This warrants further interventions to keep them updated with COVID-19 evidence to maximize their potential in raising public awareness of COVID-19.
