Therapeutic potential of gasotransmitters for cold stress-related cardiovascular disease
Authors: Sun Haijian , Nie Xiaowei , Yu Kangying , Bian Jinsong
Published: February 2022

Growing evidence has shown that exposure to low ambient temperature poses a huge challenge to human health globally. Actually, cold stress is closely associated with a higher incidence of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in winter or in cold regions. Cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying cardiovascular complications in response to cold exposure have yet to be fully clarified. Considering that cold exposure is an important risk of cardiovascular complications, it is necessary to clarify the molecular mechanism of cold stress-induced cardiovascular diseases and to develop effective intervention strategies. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), nitric oxide (NO), and carbon monoxide (CO) are well-known gasotransmitters that are endogenously produced in many biological systems. Accumulating studies have demonstrated that these gasotransmitters play a critical role in a wide spectrum of physiological and/or pathophysiological processes by regulating numerous signaling pathways. These gas signal molecules are emerging as important players in cardiovascular homeostasis, and disruption of these gasotransmitters is critically implicated in cardiovascular anomalies, such as hypertension, atherosclerosis, myocardial ischemia, heart failure, and stroke. Also, evidence is emerging that H2S, NO, and CO may be involved in the pathologies of cold stress-induced cardiovascular ailments. In this review, we aim to highlight and discuss the recent advances towards the development of gasotransmitters-based therapeutics for cold stress-related cardiovascular pathogenesis. We believe that the effects of H2S, NO, and CO on cardiovascular regulation under cold environment will attract tremendous interest in the near future as they serve as novel regulators of cardiovascular biology in cold environment.

Published: February 2022

Background

Apelin, an endogenous ligand of G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR), is a secreted peptide involved in the development of various tumors. However, the relationship between apelin and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is not quite clear. This study was designed to investigate the effect and mechanism of apelin on cell proliferation, migration and invasion of NSCLC cells.

Methods

Twelve NSCLC specimens were collected for hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and immunohistochemistry analyses. Cell proliferation was examined by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) and cell migration and invasion were assessed using wound-healing and transwell assays. The subcellular location of yes associated protein 1 (YAP1) in A549 cells was determined by immunofluorescence. The mRNA and protein levels in NSCLC tissues and cell lines were measured by qRT-PCR and western blot, respectively.

Results

Apelin was upregulated in tumor tissues compared with the adjacent tissues. Apelin promoted proliferation, migration, and invasion of A549 and H460 cells, which was reversed by competitive apelin receptor (APJ) antagonist ML221. Additionally, apelin upregulated YAP1 expression, whereas silence of YAP1 by small interfering RNA (siRNA) attenuated apelin-induced cell proliferation, migration and invasion and suppressed epithelial-mesenchymal transition progression.

Conclusion

Apelin promotes NSCLC cells proliferation, migration, and invasion by modulating YAP1 and might be a potential therapeutic target for NSCLC treatment.

Published: February 2022

This study examined the value relevance of risk management disclosure among listed deposit money banks in Nigeria. The data were collected from 10 listed deposit money banks using purpose sampling and manual content analysis for the period ranging from 2014 to 2018. Descriptive statistics tools of mean, standard deviation together with correlation analysis were used for preliminary analysis while the value relevance of risk management disclosure was estimated using random effect panel regression based on the outcome of the various specification tests. The results were obtained by controlling for book value per share, earning per share, and firm characteristics including the age of the firm, firm size, and leverage. The results obtained revealed that the value of Nigerian listed deposit money banks is positively and significantly affected by the disclosure of risk management. This study, therefore, recommends that managers of the deposit money banks in the country should be concerned with the disclosure of risk management in their annual report to enhance the development of their company’s share price which will, in turn, increase the company’s value.
SUSTAINABLE REPORTING: PRACTICES AND CHALLENGES
Authors:   University of Ruse „Angel Kanchev”, Bulgaria, MIHAYLOVA Lyudmila , PAPAZOV Emil ,   University of National and World Economy – Sofia, Bulgaria
Published: February 2022

Sustainable reporting is a modern topic. Nowadays, many organizations strive to achieve sustainable development in their activities, but a relatively small number of them have built systems for reporting and analysing the achieved sustainability. Therefore, reporting and assessment of sustainable development are understood primarily as part of the management process, providing information about the impact that the organization has on the economy, environment, and society. Their combination can help measuring the progress of an organization, setting goals, and outlining areas that will work for its gradual change. Enterprises improve their sustainable reporting through measurement, monitoring and control, showing a positive impact on the socio-economic development of the country and the region. This paper presents some main issues on the topic. The purpose is, on the base of case studies, to characterize and present the sustainable reporting as a challenging practice in Bulgaria.
MODELING OF TIME DELAYED PROCESSES IN BUSINESS ECONOMICS

Published: February 2022

The growth of mutual dependence and interconnection of markets of both national economies and multinational groups in the form of globalization processes is a typical characteristic of the current economic development. The turbulent environment of rapidly developing markets creates conditions for an increase in competition among econ tX )( omic entities, which is one of the main reasons for better allocation of factors of production and more efficient manufacturing, leading to improved competitiveness in the global market. In business practice, there are a number of phenomena characterized by changes and dynamics. Understanding the dynamics of these changes is crurial for the management decision-making since consumer behaviour changes in time these days. Therefore, we may perceive a company in a given context as a dynamic system with multiple elements and connections. In the business environment, we may consider production, consumption, investments and others to be static variables. A model of such a dynamic system is usually based on a system of differential equations describing changes of the static vector in time. This type of equations has been increasingly used in modelling of changes and motion in various scientific fields.

The research presented in this article had as main objective the comparative analysis of the way in which the project management is carried out in Romania and in Iceland. Environmental projects from each country were selected and based on the available documentation the main components of their management were analyzed. The analysis seems to indicate a relatively frequent use of classical methods of programming project execution without identifying the use of modern methods neither in the case of environmental projects in Romania, nor in the case of those in Iceland. In terms of cost management, budgeting is more frequently used and in terms of risk management, risk identification is more common in Romania and in the case of Iceland the other components of the risk management process.

Romanian economy has been, for almost two decades now, based on consumption. Thus, private consumption has become a vital element in supporting national economy and everyday life, with peaks and lows. Numerous studies have documented the Romanian consumer’s behaviour and purchasing trends, concluding that Romanians are more than just customers, rather “patients”. Big retail chains have become "the main cause" for their illness, called consumerism. Before the pandemic, Romanian customers chose to acquire goods that they did not need, just because they were trending or because it brought them a boost of image within their social group. On the other hand, from the point of view of sales targets and other economic indicators, that retailers use to build their strategies upon, it can be understood how this “disease” is increasing, transforming consumerism into a real national (with international reach) pandemic. The profit of large retail companies has shown that in peacetime (without war, cataclysms, or other adverse events), retail companies know how to manage their business and, above all, understand how to influence buyer behaviour. Under Covid pandemic threats potential customers’ access to physical premises had been restricted, therefore retail companies swiftly adapted to the Governmentally influenced change of buying patterns by increasing online accessibility. We have investigated through a quantitative analysis how pandemic procurement and consumption trends varied under these circumstances. Our research showed results that we found easy to predict, but difficult to explain from an economic point of view, mainly due to the psychological impact external factors played in general economy.

For the business models addressed in this study, we propose the implementation of distribution free learning framework concepts and paradigms. The development of a machine learning process for a predictor identified with a high degree of precision is done with the help of a discriminatory paradigm. A generative-type approach is developed, using the hypothesis that the underlying distribution used for the sampled and interpreted data has a parametric structure exploiting the so-called parametric density estimation. This choice has the advantage of avoiding learning processes for the distributions underlying the business models, resulting in rigorous predictions. For the economic models, we consider that the VANIK principle has a relevant degree of efficiency, using a well-defined amount of information. The originality and solutions proposed in this work come from the idea that in order to manage economic organizations, we must turn to innovative technological concepts and paradigms, such as machine and deep Learning as part of Artificial Intelligence. Therefore, economic activities will have both a controlled degree of uncertainty and a high degree of operational-strategic performance.

Published: February 2022

This study relies on the information regarding the predictable evolution of a natural phenomenon, i.e., the storm, in the context of the climate changes we are witnessing. This evolution triggers the need for a new approach with regards to the insurance coverage against this risk in Romania. The main challenge in shifting perspective on the coverage of this risk resides in the fact that no suitable database that can be used for storm modeling purposes in insurance has been built so far. The authors advocate the opportunity of including the storm risk among the risks covered by the mandatory householding insurance in Romania. To this end, a model has been built, in keeping with the solvency II framework that the European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) has already applied in certain states in the same geographical area. The model allows for the estimation of the probable maximum loss (PML) for the mandatory homeowners’ insurance portfolio of the company managing this type of insurance in Romania, but also for the entire housing stock.

Bagi individu autisme yang memiliki kecenderungan sebagai visual learner, perancangan pencahayaan khusus diperlukan untuk mengatasi gangguan sensori dan sebagai media untuk berkomunikasi serta mengenal dunia sekitarnya. Namun informasi perancangan khusus bagi individu autisme masih terbatas karena minimnya pengetahuan dan kompleksitas kebutuhan individu autisme. Sekolah Mandiga di Jakarta merupakan sekolah dan tempat terapi khusus bagi individu dengan spektrum autistik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengeksplorasi kebutuhan pencahayaan bagi individu autisme dan mengevaluasi perancangan pencahayaan pada Sekolah Mandiga dalam mendukung kegiatan belajar individu autisme berdasarkan kategori perancangan ruang high stimulus dan low stimulus. Pengukuran data kuantitatif iluminasi dan luminansi diambil menggunakan simulasi DiaLux Evo serta data kualitatif menggunakan kuesioner persepsi pengguna ruang. Pada Sekolah Mandiga, terdapat perbedaan dalam desain ruang dan pencahayaan pada ruang-ruang dengan aktivitas stimulus rendah dan tinggi. Penggunaan warna elemen pelingkup dan pengisi ruang, jenis sumber cahaya, dan desain bukaan menentukan stimulasi visual dan menampilkan kesan ruang yang berdampak pada perilaku pengguna ruang. Perancangan cahaya berhasil memberi efek menenangkan dan fokus pada ruang-ruang kelas individu, namun kurang menarik dan kurang membangkitkan semangat pada ruang-ruang dengan aktivitas stimulus tinggi. Secara keseluruhan, kenyamanan visual ruang-ruang di Sekolah Mandiga dipersepsikan cukup baik karena dinilai dapat mereduksi distraksi visual, cukup terang, jelas, terasa luas, dan aman.Kata kunci: pencahayaan, individu autisme, ruang high stimulus, ruang low stimulus, Sekolah Mandiga Jakarta
Argentina’s participation in the integration processes in Latin America
Authors: Petrenko Ye. I.
Published: February 2022

The article explores the role of the Argentine Republic in the integration process on the Latin American continent. Over the past 10 years, Argentina’s approaches to participation in integration associations have changed. It happened due to domestic political factors. First of all, with presidents who had different views on the country’s participation in integration processes. This applies to regional organizations such as MERCOSUR, UNASUR and CELAC. These integration associations have a strong influence on the development of the economic situation in the region. Argentina’s foreign policy was strongly influenced by the domestic economic situation. Overcoming domestic problems was the focus of Argentina’s leaders, which shaped various approaches to the country’s participation in integration associations. Special attention is paid to Argentina’s current economic situation as an engine of regional integration.
The main Vectors of Further Development of the Union State
Authors: Karpovich O. G. , Vershinina T. V.
Published: February 2022

The Union State of Belarus and Russia is the oldest of the existing integration associations in the Eurasian space and, undoubtedly, is one of the foundations of the emerging architecture of Eurasian integration. During the period of its existence, the Union State has done a lot of work on the path of rapprochement of fraternal peoples, and even more ambitious tasks are to be implemented. This article examines the main problems of the Union construction, analyzes the key areas of cooperation between the member states of the Union State. The impressive advanced integration experience of the Union State in social, military-political, scientific-educational, as well as in a number of areas of the economic sphere can be used in the implementation of integration initiatives within other Eurasian regional associations and is extremely important and in demand precisely during the transition to multipolarity and the formation of the Eurasian center on the world stage. The Union State is a fraternal relationship proven over the years, built on mutual respect, attention to problems, joint achievements and the implementation of plans to mobilize common potential, guaranteed support in difficult periods without waiting for immediate returns. The benefits of such relations are achieved not only by scaling the market, conducting a coordinated foreign trade and technical policy, characteristic of the participants of “ordinary” economic associations. The predictability and trust inherent in fraternal friendship make it possible, for example, to lower individual thresholds for economic (and not only) security, since the reliable functioning of the economy is achieved together.
The Convention on the Legal Status of the Caspian Sea: first results
Authors: Rozhkov I. S.
Published: February 2022

On 12 August 2018, the Fifth Caspian Summit was held in Aktau, Kazakhstan, during which the presidents of Azerbaijan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Russia and Turkmenistan signed a fundamental document for regional cooperation — the Convention on the Legal Status of the Caspian Sea. This comprehensive agreement concludes years of negotiations and enshrines the legal modalities for cooperation between the littoral states in an international legal framework. Its key feature is the harmonious combination of historical principles of interaction between regional actors with new elements in line with modern realities. Since the Convention has laid the foundations for a future-oriented conflict-free model of five-party cooperation based on trust, friendship and good neighborliness, it has come to be compared with the «Constitution of the Caspian Sea» in the expert community.This article provides a structural analysis of the Convention’s provisions and examines its effect on the relationship between the littoral states. The study identifies the reasons that prompted the five Caspian states to start working on the agreement and emphasizes the key role of Russian diplomacy in achieving success in the negotiation process. The author elaborates on the main provisions of the Convention and highlights the areas where the greatest progress has been made. Particular attention is paid to the establishment of a high-level regular consultation mechanism with an emphasis on the development of a methodology for establishing straight baselines in the Caspian Sea area. Interim projections were made regarding possible dates for the Convention’s entry into force. Moreover, the article outlines prospects for holding the Sixth Caspian Summit in Turkmenistan by the end of 2021 and suggests which documents may be adopted at the summit. The author concludes that there is a need to further improve the international legal framework for cooperation and to expand the network of five-party cooperation mechanisms in order to strengthen the sub-regional cooperation model.
FRONTIERISATION DAN DEFRONTIERISATION
Authors: Acciaioli Greg , Nasrum Muhammad
Published: February 2022

Bersandar kepada naskah lama dan mutakhir yang menggunakan konsep frontier, tulisan ini menyajikan studi kasus proses frontierisation dan defrontierisation di Dataran Lindu, Sulawesi Tengah. Sesudah penjelasan difokuskan pada proses, tulisan ini menggambarkan pula sejarah Dataran Lindu melalui empat dimensi frontierisation – yaitu kendali, ekstraksi, pemukiman, dan konservasi – dari zaman prakolonial sampai era pascareformasi. Studi kasus tersebut digunakan untuk memikirkan kembali gagasan seperti pembalikan status frontier dengan mengurangi perhatian pada indikator demografis dan ekonomis dan lebih memfokuskan pada faktor lain, seperti agensi dari masyakarat lokal yang didominasi/dipinggirkan dalam usaha membalikkan relasi kuasa. Hal itu kemudian menjadi kriteria utama dalam pembalikan status frontier (defrontierisation). Pembalikan status frontier ini seperti terlihat pada perubahan posisi To Lindu sebagai orang asli di wilayah Sulawesi Tengah. Mereka telah mengalami banyak peristiwa; mulai dari keadaan dipinggirkan di masa kolonial, lalu didominasi oleh migran Bugis yang memperkuat usaha kewiraswastaannya dengan menggunakan alasan pembangunan dan aliansi dengan instansi pemerintah pada era pascakolonial, sampai pada peristiwa penarikan kembali penguasaan atas wilayahnya oleh masyarakat To Lindu melalui aliansi dengan gerakan masyarakat adat dan organisasi konservasi di era reformasi dan pascareformasi.

Dan apa yang harus kita lakukan terhadap suatu negara yang menetapkan kebijakan pembangunannya dengan tetap mempertahankan "tradisi" secara selektif? Dua pertanyaan tersebut menekankan transformasi kapitalis pertanian rakyat yang sifatnya beragam atau tidak menentu di daerah-daerah pinggiran di dataran tinggi di Sulawesi Tengah. Kelompok-kelompok seperti masyarakat To Pamona secara politis dan ekonomis telah diintegrasikan ke dalam suatu negara yang telah mengubah ekonomi secara fun- damental dan sekaligus membangun kembali mata pencaharian mereka sebagai “petani kecil”. Dengan meneliti bagaimana ekonomi moral muncul dari proses pembangunan tersebut, saya membalikkan pandangan historis tentang model ekonomi moral dan konsep yang berkaitan dengan “tradisi yang tetap bertahan”.

Authors: Ha Le Thi Hoang
Published: February 2022

This article present the output of a quantitative study on self-regulated learning (SRL) of pre-service teacher students at VNU University of Education. Based on a literature review of both theoritical and imperical researches on SRL, a conceptual framework of SRL has been defined for developing a students’self - assessing questionnaire on SRL skills. Data of 809 respondents, who were VNU University of Education’s pre-service teacher students, were analyzed for this report. The outputs of descriptive statistics showed that all the investigated SRL skills of the students were limited, with the average mean scores of four SRL strategies ran between 3 and 4 (within the 1-5 Likert scale). Among various SRL skills being surveyed, the students assessed themselves better in keeping efforts and being persistent in targeting their study goals. Meanwhiles, a considerable ratio of respondents was reported to be lack of independent learning skills such as setting goals and plans for their own study, self monitoring and regulating their learning techniques. Besides, the percentage of students with limited ambition and self-efficacy in studying was also noteworthy, which may become a warning for various stakeholders, especially the university’s lecturers, the student union and clubs to focus on appropriate solutions and activities to promote students’ SRL.

El comportamiento de la pandemia de COVID-19 durante los tres picos registrados en Cali ha sido heterogéneo y la severidad de los contagios y decesos ha variado durante el tiempo. Cali con 2.2 millones de habitantes es la tercera ciudad mas poblada de Colombia, registra a la fecha (21-11-21) 285 mil casos confirmados y 7,474 muertes por la infección. El plan de vacunación contra el SARS-CoV2 iniciado en febrero de 2021, ha inmunizado en Cali 1.54 millones de personas.
Al igual que en el resto del país, el desarrollo del plan de vacunación en Cali coincidió con el tercer pico de la pandemia, el más prolongado y de mayor mortalidad; así, como con múltiples movilizaciones sociales de cientos de manifestantes agolpados en las calles entre mayo y junio del 2021, en protesta a una reforma tributaria impopular promulgada por el gobierno nacional. En Cali el plan de vacunación también se afectó por falta de acceso a servicios de salud y puntos de vacunación por bloqueos registrados en diferentes territorios de la ciudad. Al final del tercer pico, el país afrontó dificultades para continuar con el plan de vacunación por barreras al acceso de biológicos en el mercado internacional.

The Campus of Politecnico di Milano is divided into various "sections" that convey thisuniversity's different identity, which plays an active role in Città Studi. This thesis project investigates the space relationships resulting from the instauration of anew system acting as a multifunctional node. Through an analysis of the area and itsproblems, the project seeks to address them standing in continuity with the Campus andthe current previsions by Renzo Piano project; and yet wants to be an alternative to theplanned project by Politecnico for the new laboratories of Chemical Departments. Theproject explores the boundaries that would be developed through an "open-space andconstructed-space" system, organized according to road alignment, present, and pastones, and the possible doorsteps between them, making this area looking like a knotamong the "poles" of the Campus (Ampère-Leonardo-Golgi). We propose to createpooling places through a new Student House dedicated to different users and workplacesand the placement of a cultural complex, the Museo del Politecnico. Concerning leisuretime, a sports complex has been organized, intended in relationship with the Giurati area,accessible and enjoyable by a mixed variety of users. The primary purpose of this project isto create new places of identity and share them with society by using a series of livablethresholds placed on different levels, open spaces, and semi-open ones with other usages,which are put as an urban background fact.
