Published: February 2023

The article examines the specificities of personal data protection at the international level, clarifying the meaning of concepts such as “personal information”, “personal data”, “person” and “identity”. The analysis and synthesis of existing norms of international standards have been carried out, allowing to identify the range of issues requiring elimination of contradictions at the legislative level, in order to increase the efficiency of their application, given the rapid processes of globalisation, development of high technologies and as a consequence – appearance of a new international terrorism form – cyber terrorism, the society requires new approaches and definition of new standards for modern personal data system, resolution of contradictions arising in modern law, legal control over the development of electronic environment and computer systems. To address these issues, the dynamics and specifics of legal regulation in this area have been studied.

  A significant number of monographs and periodicals are devoted to the issue personal data protection. Among them, we can highlight the scientific achieve-ments of M. Bem. K. Bennett, V. Bryzhko, S. Vorren,  T. Kostetska, T. Obukhovska, A. Paziuk, K. Polinkevych, I. Sopilko, M. Shvets. Given a large number of statutory regulations and their differences in defining conceptual and categorical apparatus, mechanisms of application of personal information protection standards, a large range of issues in this area of relations are unresolved today, in connection with which their consideration and systematization are relevant.

  Definition of the content and scope of essential features of the "personality", "natural person" and "personal data" terms. The statutory regulations of the European legal system regulating issues related to the protection of personal data are investigated and the most important provisions are highlighted. New European standards in accordance with Regulation 2016/679 are identified.

  It should be noted that international documents in the field of personal data protection have a similar purpose, but at the same time, they do not have a single definition of basic concepts, such as natural person, information, information about a natural person, identified natural person, personal data processing, etc. that complicates their effective understanding and application by all participants of these relations.

It is worth noting that the adoption of Regulation 2016/67 was a breakthrough in the simplification of the legal regulation. After all, the framework Directive 95/46/EC, which was in force before its adoption, was interpreted differently by each country, which caused many misunderstandings and created obstacles to ensure the human right to privacy. That is why the issue of unification of legal regulation in this area is always relevant and requires continuous improvement and timely response to changes in the information technology space.
A functional way of interpreting legal norms with evaluative concepts
Authors: Seredyuk V.
Published: February 2023

The purpose of the article is to find out what is meant by the functional method of interpreting legal norms and what factors must be taken into account in the process of its application in practice. It was found that the functional interpretation of legal norms is the study of the practice of applying legal norms. It is shown that a functional way of interpreting legal norms is necessary for interpreting legal norms with evaluative concepts. The specified method of interpretation is carried out according to the rules and requirements that are used in the process of determining the content of evaluative concepts, taking into account specific historical conditions.

It is justified that the interpreter must take into account the conditions and factors under which the norm is implemented. The practice of interpreting such an evaluative concept as "long-term crimes" was considered, and it was clarified that the provision of the norm, formalized by Article 146 of the Criminal code of Ukraine, combines two different actions that can be considered independent crimes. It has been established that formal technical-legal defects arise mainly during the formulation of a legal concept by the legislator in violation of the rules and requirements for normative definitions.

The author came to the conclusion that at the doctrinal level, the existence and application of the functional method of interpreting legal norms is recognized in practical activity. After all, in certain cases, to clarify the meaning of a legal norm, it is not enough to pay attention only to its formal analysis and general conditions of implementation.

However, functional interpretation is not the only way of interpreting legal norms with evaluative concepts. Such norms are subject to not only functional, but also linguistic, logical, systemic, etc. interpretation. When interpreting legal norms containing evaluative concepts, the result of interpretation may be different, however, the content of the norm must match its verbal expression.
On the question of the functional purpose of the prosecutor’s office in the mechanism of protection of constitutional rights and freedoms of man and citizen
Authors: Makosiy Yu.
Published: February 2023

The scientific article examines certain issues of the functional purpose of the prosecutor’s office in the mechanism of protection of constitutional rights and freedoms of a person and a citizen.

It was determined that in the mechanism of human rights protection, the prosecutor’s office performs the human rights function of the state, which is manifested primarily in the protection of fundamental constitutional rights and freedoms of man and citizen and respect for them. The prosecutor’s office, within the limits of its powers, contributes to ensuring national law and order.

It was established that along with the function of maintaining the state prosecution, the prosecutor also performs the function of representation in court. The peculiarity of the latter is that the prosecutor can represent both the interests of the state and the citizen.

  The essence of the prosecutor’s representation in this aspect is, in accordance with Clause 1 of Article 23 of the Law of Ukraine «On the Prosecutor’s Office», in the implementation of procedural and other actions aimed at protecting the interests of the citizen or the state, in the cases and procedure established by law. Along with the interests of the citizen, the prosecutor represents a citizen of Ukraine, a foreigner or a stateless person.

It is emphasized that the wording «improperly» regarding the exercise of powers by state authorities contradicts the principle of legal certainty, may be subject to ambiguous understanding and creates obstacles to identifying the actual grounds for the prosecutor’s representation of the state’s interests in court.

It is emphasized that the prosecutor does not have the right to represent the interests of the state in court in cases related to the election or referendum process, the activities of the parliament, the head of state, political parties, public associations, organizations that carry out professional self-government, as well as religious organizations . Along with this, the prosecutor of the Office of the Prosecutor General or the regional prosecutor’s office, upon a written instruction or order of the Prosecutor General (his first deputy or deputy, according to their competence), may represent the interests of the state in court in the form of the National Bank of Ukraine and the Cabinet of Ministers.

It is determined that it is the prosecutor who must justify the grounds for representation in court. When representing the interests of a citizen or the state in court in criminal proceedings, only the prosecutor who directly performs such representation has the right to file a civil lawsuit.

Opacidad y nitidez epistémica en la economía de plataformas
Authors: Herrera Pablo Matías , Heras Ana Inés
Published: February 2023

Los cambios tecnológicos de los últimos años han permitido la emergencia, la consolidación y –en algunos casos– el dominio de los negocios de plataformas. El crecimiento de este tipo de empresas ha sido muy veloz desde mediados de la década del noventa, propiciado por transformaciones tecnológicas y de conexión digital. Sin embargo, no todos los usos de las plataformas en internet son por parte de empresas, ni todas las empresas tienen una organización capitalista. Existen desarrollos digitales y plataformas cuyo modo es social solidario y se apoyan en la tradición del código abierto, el espacio compartido, el intercambio no lucrativo y el trabajo permanente de socialización de lo que se va generando como conocimiento.
En este trabajo realizamos, en primer término, una revisión de la literatura del campo que denominamos Economía de Plataformas para situar el concepto de opacidad epistémica y explicar el poder de dominación que este modo construye. Pondremos a discusión la distinción entre dos posiciones. Una, que denominamos plataformas comerciales de lucro, con opacidad epistémica y dominación social, y otra, que llamamos de nitidez epistémica, en tanto son espacios públicos de acceso libre y gratuito para producir y compartir el común social y solidariamente.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the achievement of sustainable development goals (SDGs) in Jeneponto Regency as part of the parameters of the progress of Islamic civilization. This research is a quantitative research using path analysis (path analysis). The research results show that PAD has a negative effect on economic growth, but a positive effect on unemployment.  While DAU has a positive effect on economic growth, it has a negative effect on unemployment.  The DAK variable has a negative effect on economic growth and unemployment, both directly and through economic growth.  The implication of the findings of this research is that the formulation of development policies and strategies has not been maximized in this area, so the impact on the achievement of the SDGs is still low.  The implementation of the SDGs in Jeneponto Regency has deviated from the path of Islamic values, as in Islam it is explained that economic development aims to achieve people's welfare and prosperity which is called the Falah concept.  Without justice and fairness to humans and nature, Falah will never be achieved, especially in creating inclusive economic growth.
Plasma concentrations of glucagon and glucagon-like peptide-1 are reduced in dogs with aminoaciduric canine hypoaminoacidemic hepatopathy syndrome versus healthy dogs: a preliminary study
Authors: Holm Sarah M. , Peng Seth A. , Holter Marlena M. , Cummings Bethany P. , Loftus John P.
Published: February 2023

OBJECTIVE

To compare plasma concentrations of glucagon and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) between healthy dogs and dogs with aminoaciduric canine hypoaminoacidemic hepatopathy syndrome (ACHES) dogs.

ANIMALS

Privately owned healthy (n = 5) control (CON) and ACHES (8; including 3 with diabetes mellitus) dogs enrolled between October 2, 2019, and March 4, 2020.

PROCEDURES

This was a prospective case-control study. Fasting and 15-minute postprandial plasma glucagon total GLP-1 concentrations were measured with commercial immunoassays.

RESULTS

Dogs with ACHES had lower fasting (median, 0.5; mean difference, 3.8; 95% CI, 0.52 to 7.0 pmol/L; P = .021) and postprandial (median, 0.35; mean difference, 5.0; 95% CI, 1.8 to 8.3 pmol/L; P = .002) plasma glucagon concentrations than CON (fasting and postprandial medians, 3.5 and 4.6 pmol/L, respectively). ACHES dogs had significantly (median, 4.15; mean difference, 12.65; 95% CI, 2.0 to 16.3 pg/ml; P = .011) lower postprandial plasma GLP-1 concentrations than CON (median, 16.8 pg/ml). There was no significant difference between fasting GLP-1 levels between the 2 groups.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Lower postprandial plasma GLP-1 concentrations may contribute to the propensity of diabetes mellitus in ACHES. Lower glucagon concentrations may reflect an appropriate physiologic response to hypoaminoacidemia.
EFFECT OF VERTICAL POSITION OF HEATED SQUARE OBSTACLE ON NATURAL CONVECTION IN POROUS CAVITIES SATURATED BY A NANOFLUID USING BUONGIORNOâ€™S TWO PHASE MODEL
Authors: Khelif Fatima-Z , Helmaoui Mustapha , Bouzit Mohamed , Mokhefi Abderrahim
Published: February 2023

Laminar flow, heat transfer and mass transfer of nanofluid in a porous medium have been studied using Buongiornoâ€™s two phase model. The porous medium in place is a non-uniform octagonal shape. In order to increase the rate of heat transfer within the porous cavity, it has been equipped with a heated square at different vertical positions from position 1 (P1) to position 5 (P5). The left wall of this cavity is maintained at a high temperature and a unit volume fraction; whereas the right wall is exposed to a low temperature and a canceled volume fraction, and the other walls have been assumed to be adiabatic. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the effect of the heated square at different vertical positions on the evolution of the hydrodynamic, thermal and mass profiles taking into account the influence of certain parameters, such as: Rayleigh number (102â‰¤Raâ‰¤104), Darcy number (10-6â‰¤Daâ‰¤10-2), thermophoresis ratio (0.1 â‰¤ Nt â‰¤ 1), buoyancy ratio (0.1 â‰¤ Nr â‰¤ 1), Brownian motion ratio (0.1 â‰¤ Nb â‰¤ 1) and Lewis number (0.1 â‰¤ Le â‰¤ 1). The physical phenomenon studied is governed by the Navier-Stokes equations coupled with the energy equation and the mass conservation equation (continuity of nanoparticles). These differential equations of boundary conditions are solved using the finite element method. The results show that an increase in the Rayleigh number and the Darcy number improves natural convection, leading to an increase in the Nusselt number at the square. It is also found that the lowest values of the Nusselt number are located at the extremities of the cavity while the highest are located at the intermediate position between the positions P3 and P4 regardless of the values of the different parameters. On the other hand, an increase in the Darcy number leads to an increase in the vertical and horizontal velocity where the highest values are located at position P4.

Published: February 2023

In the last few years, the thermo-hydraulic simulation of nanofluid flow bifurcation phenomena has become of great interest to researchers and a useful tool in many engineering applications. FVM has been employed in this article to numerically explore the laminar water flow over a backward facing channel with or without carbon nanoparticles (CN). The problem formulated in this paper has been solved by considering the effects of nanoparticle weight percentages (ð‘¤%), such as 0.00, 0.12, and 0.25 for different Reynolds number (ð‘…ð‘’). Nusselt number distribution (ð‘ð‘¢(ð‘¥)), coefficient of skin friction (ð¶ð‘“), characteristics of pressure drop (Î”ð‘), velocity contours, static temperature, pumping power (ð‘ƒð‘) and thermal resistance factor (ð‘…) have been investigated to know the behavior of thermo-hydraulic flow bifurcation phenomena. The present study shows that the surface temperature and coefficient of heat transfer can be reduced due to the effect of ð‘…ð‘’ or w%. For different w%, it has been found that in the rise in the values of ð‘…ð‘’ causes the increase of vortex length and as a result velocity gradient and Î”ð‘ arises. Furthermore, it has also been studied that the enhancement of ð‘…ð‘’ causes the increaseof ð‘ƒð‘ and Î”ð‘.

Behavioral disinhibition following corpus callosotomy done for colloid cyst excision in 15-year-old girl: A case report and literature review
Authors: Delawan Maliya , Qassim Abdulla
Published: February 2023

Background:

There is a growing body of literature suggesting that the corpus callosum plays an important role in behavior. While behavioral deficits are a rare complication following callosotomy, they are well-documented in agenesis of the corpus callosum (AgCC), with emerging evidence reporting disinhibition among children with AgCC.

Case Description:

A 15-year-old girl had undergone a right frontal craniotomy and excision of a third ventricle colloid cyst using the transcallosal approach. Ten days after the operation, she was readmitted for progressive symptoms of behavioral disinhibition. Postoperative magnetic resonance imaging of the brain showed mild-to-moderate bilateral edematous changes along the operative bed, with no other significant findings.

Conclusion:

To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first report in literature to describe behavioral disinhibition occurring as a sequelae to a surgical procedure involving callosotomy.
CHANGES IN TAXATION AND THE IMPLEMENTATION OF TAX BENEFITS IN UKRAINE UNDER MARTIAL LAW
Authors: Demianchuk Olha , Melnyk Tetiana
Published: February 2023

In the article, the authors shed light on the problem of implementing tax changes and introducing tax benefits in Ukraine under martial law, and also the impact of these processes on tax revenues to the State and local budgets of Ukraine from taxes to which these benefits were applied. In particular, the peculiarities of tax benefits introduction to VAT, single tax, land fee, and excise tax were revealed. Using a dynamic analysis of the incomes of these taxes to the State and local budgets of Ukraine, the main causes and consequences of these revenues growth rate were determined. We have identified the main reasons for the cancellation of certain tax benefits, in particular the VAT benefit for imported goods, which caused significant losses in the revenues of the state budget, as this tax accounts for more than 40% of the revenues to the State Budget of Ukraine, it is considered a budget-forming tax. The decrease in customs revenues is caused not only by the introduction of tax relief on imported goods, but also by a physical decrease in the volume of foreign trade transactions. It will be possible to achieve positive growth only if the pre-war volumes are restored. It was concluded that the introduction of tax benefits on single tax and land fee affected the preservation of the activities by small and medium-sized business entities and balanced revenues from the single tax with the revenues of local budgets of Ukraine in the second half of the current year. The results of the study reflect the cause-and-effect relationships between introduced tax benefits, tax changes, and tax revenues from these taxes and also prove the importance of implementing these changes under martial law conditions.

A linear C=Ge=C heteroallene with a di-coordinated germanium atom
Authors: Sugamata Koh , Asakawa Teppei , Hashizume Daisuke , Minoura Mao
Published: February 2023

Allenes (>C=C=C<) are classified as cumulated dienes that have a linear structure with an sp-hybridized central carbon atom. We have succeeded in synthesizing and isolating a stable 2-germapropadiene derivative with bulky silyl substituents. The 2-germapropadiene allene moiety adopts a linear structure both in the solid state and in solution. In addition, an X-ray diffraction electron-density-distribution analysis of this 2-germapropadiene revealed a linear C=Ge=C geometry with a formally sp-hybridized germanium atom bearing two orthogonal C=Ge pi-bonds. Based on detailed structural and computational studies, it can be concluded that the linear geometry of the isolated 2-germapropadiene most likely arises from the negative hyperconjugation of the silyl substituents at the terminal carbon atoms. The 2-germapropadiene reacts rapidly with nucleophiles, indicating that the linearly oriented germanium atom is highly electrophilic.
Comparing the emission reduction effectiveness of continuous monitoring to periodic Optical Gas Imaging surveys for methane emissions at oil and gas production sites

Published: February 2023

Periodic methane emission screening using Optical Gas Imaging (OGI), or other short duration emission detection methods, is used at oil and gas facilities to detect and mitigate leaks and large emission events. Use of continuous monitoring systems can provide more rapid detection of emission events than periodic screening and, if responses to the detection of large emission events is rapid, the use of continuous emission monitoring can reduce the frequency of periodic screening required to achieve a targeted level of emission reductions. A hypothetical case study of oil and gas production sites in the Permian Basin shows that the deployment of one continuous sensor per site with a rapid response to only the single largest emission event occurring across 100 sites would allow screening frequency to be cut in half (quarterly to semi-annual), while preserving an equivalent amount of emission reductions.

An empirical study of oral English blended teaching was conducted in a university. The experiment class, which was under the blended teaching mode supported by digital technology, made significant improvements in language accuracy and range, discourse length and coherence, as well as flexibility and appropriateness. On the other hand, there was no significant improvement in the scores of the control class. Through the analysis of results by means of independent t-test and paired sample t-test, we drew the following conclusions: the oral performance of university students from the experiment class significantly improved; there was remarkable difference in the total oral English scores between the experiment class and the control class; the improvement in the total score and the score of each module showed that blended teaching had significant effect on the improvement of university students’ oral English performance.
Design of a UWB Antenna with Multiple Ports on a Single Circular Radiator for Direction-Finding Applications
Authors: Youn Sangwoon , Jang Byung-jun , Choo Hosung
Published: February 2023

This paper proposes a single circular radiator with a multi-port (SRMP) antenna that can estimate the direction-of-arrival (DoA) in the azimuth and elevation directions. The proposed SRMP antenna is designed to minimize the size of the ultra-wideband system by using only one patch radiator. To verify the feasibility, the proposed antenna is fabricated, and the reflection coefficient and boresight gain are measured (-13.3 dB and 3.4 dBi at 8 GHz). Then, to observe the direction-finding performance, the DoA estimation results using the Bartlett beamformer are compared with the typical array. At all incident angles, a root-mean-square error of less than 1° is observed when the signal-to-noise ratio is higher than 6 dB.

In 2009, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) developed a competency framework to support European Union countries and the European Commission in ensuring a competent public health workforce for Europe. The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic emphasised the importance of harmonised public health strategies and competencies across international boundaries, specifically for infectious diseases. This perspective presents the process to update the competency framework for applied infectious disease epidemiology, highlighting ECDC’s efforts to support countries with using the framework. ECDC commissioned the Association of Schools of Public Health in the European Region (ASPHER) to update the framework through publication and dissemination of a technical report and a self-assessment tool linked to training resources. A mixed methods approach to gather input from experts in relevant specialities included qualitative interviews with 42 experts, workshops with ECDC Technical Advisory Group and an online survey of 212 public health professionals across Europe and beyond. Modifications resulted in 157 core competencies in 23 domains, each mapping to one of six subject areas of importance in applied infectious disease epidemiology. The framework serves as a basis to update the curriculum of the ECDC Fellowship programme with two alternative paths: intervention epidemiology or public health microbiology.

La competitividad de una empresa también es el reflejo de su crecimiento económico y éste, a su vez,  permite a los individuos mejorar su calidad de vida. El objetivo del presente trabajo consiste en analizar la percepción de estudiantes universitarios, como parte de los stakeholders de las empresas de un municipio mexiquense, por aplicar la RSE durante la pandemia, con la finalidad tener un panorama de su perspectiva como consumidores y que sirva como referencia para futuros emprendimientos. Se aplicaron 75 encuestas entre jóvenes universitarios de diferentes instituciones de Valle de Chalco con un método de muestreo por conveniencia, se emplearon tablas de contingencia que permitieron el análisis de variables cualitativas y laji cuadrada para obtener la probabilidad de que dos variables se encuentren relacionadas. Los resultados arrojan que aún hay desconfianza del término y buen uso de la RSE. El 85% de los encuestados considero que en Valle de Chalco no hay empresas que cumplan éstas características. Los resultados aquí descritos pueden ser un área de oportunidad para las empresas de la zona y la RSE debe generar ventajas competitivas que permitan diferenciar a las organizaciones que la aplican.
