THE PLACE OF ENERGY DIPLOMACY IN FOREIGN POLICY OF UKRAINE
Authors: Chala Kateryna
Published: December 2022

Formulation of the problem. Contradictions between the availability of countries' own energy resources and their needs, the depletion of fuel and energy resources (FER) and the growing environmental problems associated with their production, transportation, processing and consumption, cause a tendency to exacerbate energy issues in human life, each individual country. As a result, the struggle for ownership of energy resources, the right to transport them, for the impact on the energy market has become today the most important factor in realizing the interests of the world, their political behavior, the basis of political and economic alliances and even the source of international conflicts. Energy issues in the modern world play a significant role in determining foreign policy strategies in relations between states. One of the main means of implementing such strategies is energy diplomacy. Geopolitics at the same time plays the role of coordinator of diplomatic means and methods in order to establish mutually beneficial cooperation between states in the energy sector. Energy diplomacy and geopolitics are part of foreign energy policy, directly characterize the development of international energy law at the level of energy security, international energy law institutions (universal and regional organizations), energy markets, energy industries and infrastructure, world energy ecology. The deterioration of Russian-Ukrainian relations in the gas sector (at least since the closure of gas transit in 2006) has led to the problem of bypassing (ie bypassing Ukraine) gas pipelines to Europe. The end of autumn 2019 was marked by the promotion of the issue of bypass gas pipelines to Europe. Denmark already has a permit to build Nord Stream 2 (SP-2) in its exclusive economic zone [3]. There was also a decision of the German Parliament (Bundestag) to adopt amendments to the domestic legislation of Germany on the national implementation of the updated EU Gas Directive.

Equilibrium Studies for Dye Adsorption onto Red Clay
Authors: ONAY Muhammed , SARICI ÖZDEMİR Çiğdem
Published: December 2022

In this study, it was aimed to remove malachite green, a cationic dye, from aqueous solutions by the adsorption method under various experimental conditions by using red clay. Red clay was used because it is abundant in nature and easily accessible in our region. In addition, it has been preferred as an adsorbent because it is used economically without any pre-treatment. The effects of initial malachite green concentration, temperature, adsorbent amount, and contact time on the adsorption process were evaluated. To examine the percent dye removal effect of the initial malachite green concentration, five different amounts of 25-150 ppm were examined. In order to examine the effect of the amount of red clay on the percentage of dye removal, five different amounts, in the range of 0.5-2 grams, were examined. In order to find the optimum time for the adsorption process, studies were carried out at four different values, 30-120 minutes. In the adsorption process of red clay and malachite green, experiments were carried out at three different degrees as 298, 313 and 333 K. After reaching equilibrium in the adsorption process, the data obtained were analyzed and studies were carried out by applying them to isotherm models. The results obtained from the adsorption process were compared with Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich and Temkin isotherm models. It has been determined that the experimental studies are more compatible with the Dubinin-Radushkevich model. According to the results, it is incompatible with the Langmuir model. Accordingly, it can be said that the adsorption takes place in a multilayer and heterogeneous form.

Sendo importante a valorização e o respeito ao diferente, o acolhimento, a escuta ativa, a fim de que os profissionais da saúde possam melhor atender os pacientes LGBT.
Symbolic Analysis of Second-order Ordinary Differential Equations with Polynomial Coefficients
Authors: BİRKANDAN Tolga
Published: December 2022

The singularity structure of a second-order ordinary differential equation with polynomial coefficients often yields the type of solution. It is shown that the $\theta$-operator method can be used as a symbolic computational approach to obtain the indicial equation and the recurrence relation. Consequently, the singularity structure leads to the transformations that yield a solution in terms of a special function, if the equation is suitable. Hypergeometric and Heun-type equations are mostly employed in physical applications. Thus, only these equations and their confluent types are considered with SageMath routines which are assembled in the open-source package symODE2.

Hospital Policy on Medical Futility — Does it Help in Conflict Resolution and Ensuring Good End-of-Life Care?
Authors: Joseph Roy
Published: December 2022

Introduction: This paper aimed to ascertain if hospital policy on medical futility helps in conflict resolution, and in ensuring good end-of-life care. Materials and Methods: Literature on the subject published in the last 5 years was identified through Pubmed, and those with empirical data pertaining to the outcomes of interest were examined. A systematic analysis was not possible as papers varied greatly in aims, designs, outcomes and their measures. Instead, the outcomes of representative papers were described and discussed. Results: There is a widespread use of policies and guidelines based on the concept of medical futility. Conflicts are rare and appear to arise primarily from the manner in which policies are implemented. End-of-life care appears to be improving as evidenced by a significant number of deaths occurring following: (i) discussions involving patient, family, healthcare team members; (ii) cessation of intensive care and (iii) cessation of institution of palliative care. Deaths are increasingly taking place in the presence of family and outside the intensive care wards. Finally, post mortem audit of processes and practices indicate (i) compliance but in a limited manner with policies and recommended guidelines, (ii) family satisfaction and (iii) identify areas where improvement in end-of-life (EOL) care can be effected. Key areas are in improving education of, communication with, and documentation by all stakeholders. Conclusion: Hospital policies on medical futility have helped to resolve conflicts and improve end-of-life care. Prospective, multicentre and controlled trials will be useful in determining the value of specific interventions, obtaining generalisable data and facilitating implementation of better end-of-life care models.

An Approach to the Ethical Evaluation of Innovative Surgical Procedures
Authors: Tan Veronique KM , Chow Pierce KH
Published: December 2022

While there is an ethical obligation to improve clinical outcomes by developing better therapies, surgical innovation has largely progressed without the strict regulations required of novel pharmaceutical products. We explore the reasons why new surgical techniques are frequently introduced without the benefit of randomised controlled trials, and present an approach to the ethical evaluation of novel surgical procedures.

In a general COVID-19 population in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh, we developed a medication recommendation system based on clinical information from the electronic medical record (EMR). Our goal was also to enable deep learning (DL) strategies to quickly assist physicians and COVID-19 patients by recommending necessary medications. The general demographic data, clinical symptoms, basic clinical tests, and drug information of 8953 patients were used to create a dataset. The learning model in this COVID-MED model was created using Keras (an open-source artificial neural network library) to solve regression problems. In this study, a sequential model was adopted. In order to improve the prediction capability and achieve global minima quickly and smoothly, the COVID-MED model incorporates an adaptive optimizer dubbed Adam. The model calculated a mean absolute error of 0.0037, a mean squared error of 0.000035, and a root mean squared error of 0.0059. The model predicts the output medications, such as injections or other oral medications, with around 99% accuracy. These findings show that medication can be predicted using information from the EMR. Similar models allow for patient-specific decision support to help prevent medication errors in diseases other than COVID-19.

Background: The article reviews the literature data on various somatic and mental pathologies, which are comorbid processes with similar pathophysiological, genetic and neurochemical mechanisms. The psychosomatic manifestations of cardiovascular diseases and coronavirus disease (COVID-19) are considered. Particular attention is paid to post-traumatic stress disorder of participants in local wars. Comorbid pathology, in combination with depression and anxiety, aggravates the course of the disease, leading to disability in the adult population and premature death. Methods: The literature was searched in PubMed, Mendeley, Google Scholar, and ScienceDirect databases to identify relevant studies published from 2012 to 2022. Results: Our literature search revealed a bidirectional association between comorbid psychiatric and somatic disorders. The prevalence of somatic diseases increases in people with a predominance of mental disorders. Conclusion: There is growing evidence that the combination of anxiety-depressive disorders and physical illness worsens the severity of the disease, complicating the diagnosis of the presence of one and/or several physical symptoms. However, more clinical trials are still needed to determine their full mechanisms of action.

During the pandemic, the management of corpses for Covid-19 was carried out according to the protocol by WHO. In practice, there are several difficulties in the field, one of which is if there is a sudden death where the death is not in a health facility, tools are needed to assess whether the death is related to Covid-19. This is important to decide whether the bodies are treated like Covid-19 or not. The Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia has made verbal autopsies of deaths that should be suspected of being related to Covid-19. This study aims to evaluate the performance of this verbal autopsy against diagnosis in medical records. As many as 97 families of patients who died in the inpatient room were interviewed using a verbal autopsy, then the doctor concluded whether the death was related to Covid-19 or not without previously knowing the patient's diagnosis. After that, the patient's medical record is seen to find a diagnosis during treatment. Then the results were compared with the conclusions using a verbal autopsy. In this study, the autopsy verbal sensitivity was 88.09%, the specificity was 88.09% and the area under the curve was 76%, which means that the autopsy's verbal ability in diagnosing Covid-19 related deaths is considered good.

Published: December 2022

Autism, which is considered as the child's inability to give normal responses to daily warnings, may lead to some problems in the families of children with these characteristics. The concept of self is the result of human interaction with the environment from the time when it emerged as the reason of human mind; is the perception of human being and the perception that occurs in itself. In our study, the future designs and the sense of self of families with a child with autism were examined based on these variables. The aim of this study is to examine how the families of a child with autism are affected by the sense of self and future designs. The sample of the study consisted of 150 autistic children parents and 150 healthy student parents who attend private kindergartens and day care centers. Personal Information Form, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and Social Comparison Scale were used in the study. The data obtained by using the scales were analyzed with statistical methods according to the sub-objectives. The mean self-esteem of the families without a child with autism was found to be higher than the group with autism. The mean of social comparison of families with a child with autism was found to be higher than that of a child with autism. According to the study, families with a child with autism have a positive sense of self and self-esteem increases while positive sense of self increases. In addition to self-esteem and social comparison, there is a weak and directly proportional relationship as well as self-esteem in those with physical disabilities.

Monkey pox infection (MPXV), a zoonotic orthopoxvirus (OPX), is endemic in the Majority rule Republic of Congo (DRC). Presently, symptomatic tests for human monkey pox (MPX) center around continuous quantitative polymerase chain response (PCR) examines, which are ordinarily acted in refined lab settings. In this, we assessed the precision and utility of a multiplex MPX measure utilizing the GeneXpert stage, a versatile fast symptomatic gadget that might act as a mark-of-care test to analyze contaminations in endemic regions. The multiplex MPX/OPX measure incorporates an MPX-explicit PCR test, an OPX-nonexclusive PCR test, and an interior control PCR test. Altogether, 164 analytic examples (50 coverings and 114 vesicular swabs) were gathered from thought MPX cases in Tshuapa Area, DRC, under public observation rules. The examples were tried with the GeneXpert MPX/OPX measure and an OPX PCR examination at the Institute Public de Recherché Biomedical (INRB) in Kinshasa. Aliquots of every example were tried in lined up with an MPX-explicit PCR measure at the Habitats for Infectious prevention and Counteraction. The after effects of the MPX PCR were utilized as the best quality level for all investigations. The GeneXpert MPX/OPX measure performed at INRB had responsiveness of 98.8% and an explicitness of 100 percent. The GeneXpert examination performed well with both hull and vesicle tests. The GeneXpert MPX/OPX test consolidates a basic procedure that performs well in both research facility and field conditions, recommending practicality as a demonstrative stage might grow and facilitate the ebb and flow of MPX recognition capacities
Small Rural Primary Schools in the UK
Authors: Keast David
Published: December 2022

There are small rural primary schools in the United Kingdom - that is to say schools with as few as twenty pupils and with as many as a hundred pupils where the principal has a fairly full teaching commitment. Many of these small primary schools are in the "shire" countries - the South-West and Northern Ireland. In the South-West about a third of the primary (5-11) schools have less than lOO pupils on roll. The distance to an alternative school may be as little as three miles: it is unlikely that the distance (by road) will be greater than twenty miles.
Inclusive Education
Authors: Fields Barry A
Published: December 2022

For some years now most state and territory departments of education have embraced policies favouring the integration of children with special needs into regular classrooms (Asbman & Elkins, 1990). Many states have recently redefined their policies. This is particularly the case for Queensland and New South Wales where quite elaborate policy documents and management plans have been prepared and disseminated. The most recent policies reaffirm central office support for integration, but now within the context of inclusive education, social justice, and the imperatives of anti-discrimination and equal opportunity legislation (Department of Education, Queensland, 1993). What hasn't changed over this period are the concerns expressed by teachers about the difficulties of implementing such policies and the demands placed on teachers in respect of workload and professional expertise (Graham, 1991; McCollow, 1992).

The Isolated Schools Project provided the opportunity for six University of Southern Queensland student teachers to experience teaching in rural areas in the North and South West regions of Queensland. The project offers students experience in a broad range of areas including: multi-level planning and timetabling; pupil free day activities; and initial enrolment and administration procedures. These students have shown a keen interest in applying to teach in areas such as these upon the completion of their course. Over a two and a half week period, students experienced not only teaching in this type of setting, but also community life in general. All of the students who participated feel that it is important to highlight the fact that the teachers who provided places for them on this experience did so on a voluntary basis.

The city stereotype of country people as uncultivated, unsophisticated, and uninterested in the arts and its education is rejected by this study. It draws upon interviews and a survey of home-tutors and staff associated with the Longreach School of Distance Education about their views on drama and visual arts education. The authors show that while a wide range of views are held about the arts in education, most parents value their children's participation in the arts and seek further participation.

Published: December 2022

In this research work, a multidimensional index is generated that allows measuring the vulnerability to disasters of precarious housing in the localities of the municipalities of Huehuetla, Tenango de Doria, San Bartolo, Acaxochitlán and Agua Blanca, Hidalgo, México. The Social Residential Vulnerability Index (IVRS) considers variables such as access to basic housing services and goods, home overcrowding, and precarious construction materials. Based on information from the 2020 Census, disaggregated by locality; the IVRS is estimated, which allows locating areas with higher levels of vulnerability due to housing infrastructure and that become priority areas to reduce inequalities within the state of Hidalgo. The IVRS is constructed from Kaztman's (2000). Vulnerability asset framework. Vulnerability is a multidimensional phenomenon shaped by physical and social factors; both are linked since one can be a trigger for the other. Physical factors are related to the quality of the buildings in which they live, while social factors are related to the conditions of the population, which, in this case, are overcrowding, and access to goods and information technologies. Of the 341 localities that make up the study area, 40% are grouped into sectors of high social residential vulnerability.

Published: December 2022

The issue of rice procurement is still in the spotlight and focus for every organization to survive in the current era of globalization. This research purpose of this study is to analyze the performance of Perum Bulog in handling farmers' harvests in Kurik District. The research method uses a qualitative descriptive approach. The research results on  Bulog handling farmers' rice in Kurik District, Merauke Regency, have yet to run optimally in the absorption of farmers' rice products. This happens because the rice skins produced by farmers do not follow the rice quality standards determined by Bulog. As a recommendation, research needs to bridge the demands and needs of farmers so that the harvest can be maximized and optimize local governments' role in training farmers. Thus, farmers will have the necessary means to optimize their crops in quality and quantity.

Abstrak

Permasalahan pengadaan beras masih menjadi sorotan dan tumpuan bagi setiap organisasi agar dapat bertahan di era globalisasi pada saat ini. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis kinerja Perum Bulog dalam menangani hasil panen petani di Distrik Kurik. Metode penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Data penelitian dikumpulkan melalaui wawancara, sedengkan untuk analisis data berupa: reduksi data; penyajian data, serta penarikan kesimpulan. Hasil penelitian kinerja perum bulog dalam menyerap beras petani di Distrik Kurik Kabupaten Merauke belum berjalan secara maksimal dalam penyerapan hasil beras petani. Hal ini terjadi karena kualitas beras petani yang dihasilkan belum semua sesuai dengan standar kualiats beras yang sudah ditentukan oleh bulog. Efektivitas kinerja Perum Bulog belum efektif  karena di lapangan masih banyak beras yang belum terserap secara keseluruhan. Produktifitas Perum Bulog belum maksimal dalam menyerap beras yang dihasilkan petani, penyerapan beras hanya yang memenuhi standar dan beras yang tidak memenuhi standar dikembalikan. Perum Bulog seharusnya memiliki alternatif lain dalam menampung beras yang belum memenuhi standar dengan sistem perawatan. Rekomendasi penelitian optimalisasi peran pemerintah daerah sangat diperlukan dalam bentuk pelatihan sistem pengelolaan sawah yang terpadu agar petani dapat memiliki pengetahuan dalam penanaman, pra panen, dan pasca panen agar hasil panen dapat dimaksimalkan baik secara kualitas maupun kuantitasnya.

Do Protocolo de Palermo à compaixão-repressão: indefinições, vieses e idealizações da hegemonia antitráfico

À escala global tem ganhado clara ascendência um paradigma antitráfico associado ao chamado “Protocolo de Palermo”, da Organização das Nações Unidas. Considerando as disposições deste protocolo, procuro caracterizar e compreender uma situação que suscita evidentes incongruências estruturais na hegemonia antitráfico: a convivência entre, por um lado, uma definição dilatada do tráfico de pessoas no texto do protocolo e das leis nacionais dele resultantes, e, por outro, a apertada seletividade ideológica que, oscilando de forma quase esquizofrénica entre a compaixão e a repressão, tende a permear os processos de operacionalização dos quadros legais, nomeadamente no que diz respeito ao reconhecimento e proteção das vítimas.
Control penal y género.¡Baracunátana!: una elegía al poder sobre la rebeldía femenina
Authors:   Universidad Católica de Colombia, Silva García Germán , Ávila Cano Vannia ,   Universidad Católica de Colombia
Published: December 2022

Este artículo se centra en la letra de la canción popular titulada “Baracunátana” para describir y analizar la cultura machista en las relaciones de género. La historia narrada en la canción, con su entramado machista, a un nivel microsocial, es el punto de partida de una exploración sobre los conflictos de género. A continuación, el artículo examina las consecuencias macrosociales de la cultura machista y, en especial, su influencia en la violencia de género. Esas problemáticas, micro y macro, son las bases para emprender una revisión crítica de las principales políticas y acciones de control penal desarrolladas para combatir la violencia en las relaciones de género en el sistema jurídico colombiano. Como resultado, se identifican varios nodos críticos que neutralizan e impiden un manejo adecuado de este tipo ascendente de violencia. Esto permite demostrar que las políticas en materia penal han derivado, con preocupante ineficacia, pese al sensacionalismo y la algarabía política que hacen, en un inoficioso populismo penal. En contraposición, el artículo propone dar prioridad al desarrollo de políticas sociales contra el machismo, cuyo objetivo sería afectar las disposiciones de poder, porque el problema de Baracunátana no es de amor, ni de celos, es una cuestión de poder.

Authors:   Universidad Santiago de Cali, Colombia, Erazo Santander Oscar A.
Published: December 2022

Las funciones ejecutivas son habilidades neuropsicológicas que influyen en la capacidad cognitiva, afectiva y conductual. Su productividad depende de la madurez del sistema nervioso central y la calidad en la estimulación. En la niñez el proceso madurativo es vulnerable ante condiciones ambientales adversas, como la pobreza, pautas de crianza negligencia, experiencias traumáticas y educación deficiente, generando retrasos, con consecuencias en el sistema ejecutivo. Es necesario identificar programas que busquen mejorar estas habilidades neuropsicológicas en la niñez y que se desarrollen en condiciones de vulnerabilidad definiendo su posible efecto e impacto. Se realizó una revisión literaria con productos científicos de los años 2015 – 2020 en buscadores electrónicos de Scopus, Pubmed, Scielo y Dialnet. Se consideró trabajos de acceso abierto con metodología experimental o cuasiexperimental, medición pretest y postest y muestras de desarrollo normal y vulnerable. En los resultados se identificaron 47 programas nominados en 11 grupos, actividad física, combinado, académico, computarizado, familia y crianza, juegos, mindfulness, música, artes, terapias y nutricional - psicoeducativo. La mayoría indican resultados positivos con efecto moderado y alto y con transferencias en dimensiones cognitivas, afectivas, conductuales y sociales. Se recomienda continuar el análisis de programas de mejoramiento en funciones ejecutivas en Latinoamérica, en tanto compartimos variables ambientales adversas y según el análisis solo cinco productos se realizaron en Latinoamérica y uno en Colombia.
Impact of the Covid-19 Crisis on Service Enterprises and their Attitudes Towards Marketing Investments

Published: December 2022

The service sector has become the dominant sphere of market economies over the last forty years. The maturity of a country’s economy is directly related to the maturity of services as an economic sector. The immense growth across the service sector has also put mounting pressure on the competitiveness of service enterprises and their marketing activities. The turn of the millennium has already seen the competitive struggle affected by two crises – first, an economic one and now, one caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, which has had a great impact (not only) on the service sector. The article deals with the question of how Czech service enterprises reflect on the impact of the pandemic. The article’s aim is to find out how service enterprises perceive the impact of the Covid-19 crisis depending on their size and classification within the service sector and how they approach marketing investments during a pandemic crisis. The research is focused on service enterprises (n=90) in terms of their application of marketing processes in the conditions of the Czech Republic in the period 2020-2021. The results, based on descriptive and inferential statistics (ANOVA test in conjunction with Hochberg and Games-Howell tests, Pearson’s correlation coefficient and chi-squared test), show that smaller enterprises tend to be more affected by the effects of government measures in the context of the Covid-19 crisis than medium and large enterprises.

This study compared the impact of the Global Financial Crisis (GFC) and the COVID-19 pandemic on financial market contagion between developed and emerging markets. A DCC-GARCH model was employed to test the contagion effects of developed and emerging markets using weekly returns for the S&P 500 (US), FTSE-100 (UK), ASX 200 (AUS), IBOVESPA (BRA), BSE SENSEX (IND) and BVM IPC (MEX). The results showed that there was a persuasive case made for the integration of markets for efficient financial systems. However, a crisis occurring in one market holds significant repercussions for any of the connected markets. The findings show that the COVID-19 pandemic affected all the markets more severely than the GFC and contagion effects were more pronounced in emerging markets than in developed markets during the GFC and the pandemic. Consequently, policy makers in emerging markets should implement policies that reduce external vulnerabilities and improve their markets’ stability to reduce the impact of contagion.
