The Influence of the Gender of the Chairman and CEO on the Company's Financial Leverage
Authors: Lo Huai-Chun , Ting Lai Yu , Chien Ching-Yuan
Published: January 2023

The number of female CEOs reached a historic high in 2014. It shows that women have a greater impact on a company, and more and more studies have explored the impact of female executives in a company. This study investigates how the gender of chairmen and CEOs affects corporate leverage in Taiwan through regression analysis with fixed effects. We especially focus on whether the firms operated by female chairpersons and female CEOs have more conservative financial policies or corporate leverage than the firms operated by male chairpersons or male CEOs’. Leverage and volatility are common measures of corporate risk-taking. The firms with higher leverage and volatility are regarded as the firms which are risky and more willing to take the risk. The firms with lower leverage and lower volatility are taken as the more stable firms. The empirical results show that the firms operated by female chairpersons have higher leverage and volatility. It indicates that female chairpersons are more aggressive than their male counterparts. However, the empirical results of CEOs are different from chairmen. The results show that the firms led by female CEOs have lower leverage. The figures show that female CEOs in Taiwan are more conservative than male CEOs. The empirical results also show that female chairpersons have more impact on corporate leverage and volatility.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh dari kesiapan individu untuk berubah dan rasa berdaya psikologis terhadap kesiapan organisasi untuk berubah Pada 2 BUMN . Teknik pengambilan data menggunakan teknik convenience sampling dengan jumlah responden sebanyak 175 orang, dan diolah dengan mempergunakan analisis Regresi. Hasil dari penelitian menunjukkan bahwa, KIB (Kesiapan individu untuk berubah) dan RBP (Rasa berdaya psikologis) bersama-sama memiliki efek yang signifikan pada KOB (Kesiapan organisasi untuk berubah) dengan r-square sebesar .34. Kesiapan individu untuk berubah (KIB) sendiri berpengaruh signifikan sebesar .51 terhadap kesiapan organisasi untuk berubah (KOB). Sedangkan rasa berdaya psikologis sendiri berpengaruh signifikan sebesar .54 terhadap kesiapan organisasi untuk berubah. Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa meskipun baik rasa berdaya psikologis maupun kesiapan individu untuk berubah berpengaruh signifikan terhadap kesiapan organisasi untuk berubah untuk perubahan, tetapi skor rasa berdaya psikologis sedikit lebih tinggi dibandingkan kesiapan individu untuk berubah untuk perubahan. Hasil ini dapat diterapkan tidak hanya pada unit kerja, tetapi juga pada lingkungan sosial pada umumnya dimana untuk merubah organisasi maka pemimpin perubahan perlu memerhatikan aspek kesiapan semua anggota kelompok maupun pemberdayaan anggota kelompoknya untuk dapat mencapai keberhasilan suatu perubahan.
THE RELEVANCE OF USING THE SOFTWARE PACKAGE R-MALDIQUANT FOR THE CONVERSION OF RAW MAA-SPECTRA OF DIROFILARIA

Published: January 2023

Diagnosis of human tissue helminthiasis remains a complex problem of practical medicine. Therefore, the search for alternative direct methods of their verification is an important area of laboratory diagnostics. Proteomic research methods are one of the most modern areas of laboratory practice. Updating the database of reference protein profiles of parasitic pathogens is one of the main priorities of mass spectrometry. To convert digital data of protein extract spectra, the R-MALDIquant software package for dirofilaria differentiation (Dirofilaria immitis, Dirofilaria repens) was used. For the study, two D. repens females were taken, removed from the subcutaneous fat of two patients (one from each patient), two D. immitis females obtained from the heart after autopsy of two fallen dogs. In the study, only the head ends were taken (where the stichocytes are concentrated), without reproductive organs (where the main excretory-secretory antigens of the parasite are located). The profiles of the mass spectra of the homogenate proteins were obtained using the standard Sepsityper Kit 50 and the “Formic Acid Extraction” for Microflex LT MALDI–TOF MS (Bruker Daltonics) with flexControl software (Bruker Daltonics). Visualization was performed using Flexanalysis 3.3 software (Bruker Daltonics). Preliminary processing of mass spectra was carried out using the R software environment in the MALDIquant package. The coincidence rate in the dendrogram sections for D. immitis individuals was 96-99 %, and for D. repens – 73-100 %, which is probably due to phenotypic differences in helminths isolated from different patients. The results obtained by us of processing two types of dirofilaria using the R-MALDIquant software environment are the first step in creating a library of reference protein profiles of nematodes of the genus Dirofilaria. Key words: Dirofilaria repens, Dirofilaria immitis, MALDI-TOF MS, R package, MALDIquant. erroneous identification of the causative agent of the disease D. latum, which did not affect the results of treatment

The purpose of the research: to assess the natural occurrence of Coxiella burnetii in ticks of the genus Dermacentor; clarify of the relationship between the physiological age of ticks and their infection with the Q fever patogen. Materials and methods: In the period from 2017 to 2019, we examined 4908 specimens of Dermacentor marginatus (616 pools) 4208 specimens of Dermacentor reticulatus (566 pools) and 43 specimens of Dermacentor niveus (18 pools) were examined for infection with the Q fever patogen. To assess the dependence of the detection of Coxiella burnetii in ticks depending on the physiological age, we examined 3048 specimens D. reticulatus (381 pools) and 2319 specimens D. marginatus (366 pools). The study of ixodid ticks for the presence of Coxiella burnetii DNA of the causative agent of Q fever was carried out by the molecular genetic method, namely the polymerase chain reaction (PCR), in accordance with the regulatory guidelines. Results and discussion: The results of the research showed that the infection of ixodid ticks with Coxiella in the Central Ciscaucasian natural populations on D. reticulatus and D. marginatus fluctuates over the years and does not exceed one percent. When considering the dependence of the detection of Coxiella burnetii in ticks on their physiological age, statistically significant results were obtained only for D. reticulatus. There is a significant correlation between the more frequent detection of infected ticks of physiological age II compared with ticks of physiological age III and IV. For D. marginatus ticks, there was no statistically significant relationship between the detection of Q fever pathogen and physiological age. Key words: ixodid ticks, Dermacentor reticulatus, Dermacentor marginatus, Dermacentor niveus, Q fever, physiological age.
The effects of a few important gene families on sorghum agronomic traits
Authors: Hailemariam Mesfin
Published: January 2023

Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor [L.] Moench), a main food for more than 500 million impoverished and food insecure people in arid and semi-arid regions of Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and South Asia, is an important crop for food and nutritional security (SA). Sorghum has the most acceptance in these drought-prone areas due to its good tolerance to harsh settings, high yield, and use as a good source of forages. In this review, the objective of this study is to document the production and use Sorghum in improvement programmed through a literature review, we used publications from journals to explore gene families, how they evolved, gene family theories, how gene families influenced agronomic features in sorghum, and in-depth studies of the key ten gene families in sorghum. The future prospects on sorghum enhancement include genomic selections and gene families, as well as comparative genomic selections. Furthermore, understanding the mechanism of these gene families is important for addressing problems that plague sorghum production, including as infections, drought, and heat stress.  We can accurately improve traits using modern techniques such as marker-assisted selection, Genomic selections (GS), Marker-assisted backcrossing (MABC), Marker-assisted recurrent selection (MARS), Marker-assisted selections (MAS), and Genome-wide selections (GWAS) if we have the above gene families of interest (GWAS).

Published: January 2023

Diabetes is a long-term disease caused by the human body's inability to make enough insulin or to use it properly. This is one of the curses of the present world. Although it is not very severe in the initial stage, over time, it takes a deadly shape and gradually affects a variety of human organs, such as the heart, kidney, liver, eyes, and brain, leading to death. Many researchers focus on the machine and in-depth learning strategies to efficiently predict diabetes based on numerous risk variables such as insulin, BMI, and glucose in this healthcare issue. We proposed a robust approach based on the stacked ensemble method for predicting diabetes using several machine learning (ML) methods. The stacked ensemble comprises two models: the base model and the meta-model. Base models use a variety of models of ML, such as Support Vector Machine (SVM), K Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Naïve Bayes (NB), and Random Forest (RF), which make different assumptions about predictions, and meta-models make final predictions using Logistic Regression from predictive outputs from base models. To assess the efficiency of the proposed model, we have considered the PIMA Indian Diabetes Dataset (PIMA-IDD). We used linear and stratified sampling to ensure dataset consistency and K-fold cross-validation to prevent model overfitting. Experiments revealed that the proposed stacked ensemble model outperformed the model specified in the base classifier as well as the comprehensive methods, with an accuracy of 94.17%.
Biomimetic Leadership: Core Beliefs for Sustainable Organizations
Authors: Somoza-Norton Andrea , Rivera Cárdenas Claudia , Pabigian Lisa , Drap Megan
Published: January 2023

Biomimetics is the science of applying nature-inspired designs and processes to human engineering and social innovation in order to solve complex problems. Emulating life’s blueprints and patterns, chemical processes, and ecosystem strategies leads to sustainable and regenerative solutions for a biosphere able to support all life on our planet. In a similar vein, Biomimetic Leadership encourages western 21st century leaders to rediscover the value of nature, apply life’s design principles, and utilize biomimetic thinking for the sake of improving organizations. Four core beliefs—Respect, Relate, Reflect, and Replicate—provide the foundation for Biomimetic Leadership as a new type of leadership. Each belief is a source of inspiration and offers insights into a hands-on approach to leading in an era of unprecedented environmental and economic concerns. Educating leaders for Biomimetic Leadership is a challenge that must be addressed by organizations with the objective of reaching equality, and by doing so, focusing on incorporating the four core beliefs described in this paper.
Lateness, Asymmetricity, and Ecological Uncertainty in W.G. Sebald’s The Rings of Saturn
Authors: Spencer Daniel
Published: January 2023

This paper analyzes W.G. Sebald’s novel The Rings of Saturn as a literary exploration of ecology and post-historicity. By examining Sebald’s narrative through Timothy Morton’s revision of Hegelian art history as “Asymmetricity,” a prolonged period of post-human Romanticism, Sebald’s vision of history is positioned after the end of a sense of historical progress, a period of ruin and decline where nature begins to reclaim the landscape and history itself. This condition, I argue, is one instance in an ever-repeating cycle of historical and ecological “ends,” whose foil is the concept of ecological melancholy. Ultimately this analysis is a case study in how literature of the Anthropocene so preoccupied with the notion of the “end” encourages narrative estrangement from the world, an estrangement I seek to suture – though not entirely heal – through the recognition of a new historical teleology of engagement with the ecological melancholy’s potential for rebuilding.

Hyökkäyssodan kannatus Venäjällä
Authors: Mitikka Eemil
Published: January 2023

Venäjän aloitettua hyökkäyssodan Ukrainaan helmikuussa 2022 sekä tiedotusvälineissä että asiantuntijapiireissä on pohdittu Venäjän kansan hyväksyntää ja tukea sodalle. Sekä valtiolliset  että valtiosta riippumattomat ja oppositioon kytkeytyvät kyselytutkimukset raportoivat pian  hyökkäyssodan alettua selvän enemmistön venäläisistä kannattavan sotaa. Sotakyselyt ovat  herättäneet keskustelua siitä, kuinka luotettavina indikaattoreina niitä voidaan pitää. Kritiikin  mukaan esimerkiksi venäläisten sotakyselyiden suuren vastauskadon takia niiden todistusvoima  on mitätön, kun taas osa näkee niiden osoittavan selvästi enemmistön  venäläisistä tukevan sotaa. Tässä artikkelissa esitetyn tutkimuksen perusteella kumpikin  edeltävistä näkökulmista on liian yksinkertaistava. Tutkimuksen pääargumentti on, että  rajoitteistaan huolimatta sotakyselyistä voidaan tehdä tärkeitä ja poliittisesti relevantteja  havaintoja. Korkean vastauskadon (matalat vastausprosentit, korkeat keskeytysprosentit) takia  on kuitenkin relevantimpaa analysoida sodan kannatukseen liittyvien muuttujien välisiä suhteita kuin käyttää sotakyselyitä sodan ”yleiskannatuksen” mittareina. Tutkimus tarkastelee erityisesti sosiodemografisten taustatekijöiden, mediakulutuksen ja taloudellisten asenteiden yhteyttä  sodan kannatukseen Venäjällä. Vaikka tarkastelu rajoittuu näihin muuttujiin, voi tutkimuksen  lähestymistapaa soveltaa myös muun tyyppisiin tutkimuskysymyksiin analysoitaessa  sotakyselyitä vastaisuudessa.
After Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the media and experts have been  considering the approval and support for the war among the Russian population.  Governmental, state-independent and oppositional surveys reported quickly that the clear  majority of Russians support the war. These war surveys have raised discussion about how  reliable they can be considered as indicators of war support. For example, according to some  critiques, the high non-response in these surveys suggests that their value as evidence is  negligible, while some see that they clearly show how the majority of Russians support the war.  The research conducted for this article presents that both of the aforementioned viewpoints are  too simplistic. The main argument of this research is that, in spite of their limitations, it is  possible to draw important and politically relevant insights from the Russian war surveys.  However, because of the high non-response rates (low response and completion rates), it is  more relevant to analyse the relationships between the variables affecting the war support, than  to use these surveys as indicators of “overall support” for the war. This article examines in  particular how sociodemographic background factors, media consumption and economic  attitudes relate to war support in Russia. Although the examination is limited to these variables,  the approach of the research can be applied to other kinds of research questions in analysing  war surveys in future.

Konzepte von Ehre und Treue in der mittelalterlichen deutschen und niederländischen Tierepik
Authors:   , Fuchs Irmgard
Published: January 2023

This dissertation presents the results of a comparative study of concepts of honour and loyalty in medieval German and Dutch animal epics. It concerns analyses of three Germanic fox stories: Reinhart Fuchs, Van den vos Reynaerde, and Reynaerts historie. They are examined here from a systematic comparative perspective for the first time. The emphasis is on the categories 'honour' and 'loyalty', which play a central role in the relationship between a king and his servants in the Middle Ages. The courtly categories 'honour' and 'loyalty' have previously been studied through other texts, but not yet through Germanic animal epics. This dissertation shows that the Germanic animal epic is a sustained and fierce critique of courtly ideals and thus provides new insights into courtly culture.

This thesis consists of four chapters.
The first chapter describes the research question and objective. It gives an overview of the state of research within German and Dutch Medieval Studies. It also explains the thesis's theoretical and methodological framework. Finally, it explains the text corpus and the study's structure.
The second chapter provides an overview of Western European animal epics. The focus here is on the distribution of Old French narrative material in the German-speaking lands. The German and Dutch traditions and the stories Reinhart Fuchs, Van den vos Reynaerde and Reynaerts historie are examined in more detail. The chapter ends with a comparison of the three stories, identifying important differences and similarities in the story of the meeting of the court. In all three cases, the king seems to be able to retain his honour at the beginning of the court, but at the end there is always a loss of honour. The manner in which honour is retained and honour lost is different in all three stories. This observation forms the starting point for the further analysis.
The third chapter focuses on analyses of concepts of honour and loyalty in Reinhart Fuchs, Van den vos Reynaerde, and the second half of Reynaerts historie. The three analyses have a systematic structure to allow for comparison between the individual sections. The focus is on the following topics: the story of the court day; the king as main character; the fox as main character; the feudal relationship between the king and fox; and, finally, the end of the court day. Semantic analyses discuss the usage of the words honour and loyalty. Each analysis ends with an intermediate review that summarises the main findings.
The fourth chapter describes the results of this study. The chapter ends with a concluding review.
Vysoké školy v Pláne obnovy a odolnosti

Published: January 2023

The Government of the Slovak Republic prepared a Recovery and Resilience Plan, which did not go through a wide professional discussion. It thus contains a number of issues that provoke a wide-ranging discussion. The article is a contribution to the discussion of some serious problems of universities in Slovakia. One of the problems is the change in the financing of universities, the introduction of a system of periodic evaluation of scientific performance, or the reform of the system of internal management of universities. There is no doubt about the need to introduce a system of periodic evaluation of universities with the use of foreign evaluators. The criteria for evaluating the performance of higher education institutions raise doubts. The changes to the internal management system of higher education institutions indicated in the Recovery Plan limit the autonomy of higher education institutions. Rather than changing the funding of universities, it is necessary to increase the amount of funding for higher education.
Evaluation of Readmission Agreements between the EU and Turkey as Conflict of Interest

Published: January 2023

Currently DDoS attack has become one of the most common network attacks worldwide. This is largely due to the fact that we live in the age of the Internet of Things, with the rapid development of computer and communication technology evolving into big, complex and distributed systems that are exposed to several kinds of attacks in addition to new threats. In order to detect intruders in an efficient and timely manner, a real time detection mechanism, proficient in dealing with a variety of forms of attacks is highly important. However, due to the uniformity and evolution of DDoS attack modes and the variable size of attack traffic, there has not yet been a detection method with satisfactory detection accuracy at present and considerable effort made by both the scientific research and industry for several years to mitigate DDoS detection potential DDoS target indicate that DDoS attacks have not been fully addressed. This study therefore aimed at developing a machine learning a Machine learning algorithm with self-update parameter calibration to improve intrusion detection of DDoS in communication networks, in two steps: Feature extraction and model detection that is, we extract DDoS attack traffic characteristics with large proportion and compare the data packages according to the protocol in the Feature extraction stage whereas in the model detection stage, the features that were extracted are used as the input features in machine learning after which the Random Forest algorithm used to train the developed detection model. Finally, the model was validated by three metrics (accuracy, false negative rate and false positive rate). The results show that the DDoS attack detection method based on machine learning proposed in this study has a good detection rate and accuracy compared to the current popular DDoS attack detection methods. The developed model achieved accuracy of 96% over a real-time dataset.

Spaceflight Maximum Allowable Concentrations for Ethyl Acetate
Authors: Williams E. Spencer , Ryder Valerie E.
Published: January 2023

INTRODUCTION: Ethyl acetate is a simple organic compound that occurs naturally and is used industrially as a solvent. It has been detected in the ISS atmosphere and is known to off-gas from building materials. As NASA astronauts have been and will be exposed to ethyl acetate
during space missions, Spaceflight Maximum Allowable Concentrations (SMACs) were developed following an extensive review of the available literature.METHODS: Toxicological data relevant to SMAC development was collected from electronic databases using principles of systematic review,
and from previous assessments and reviews of ethyl acetate.RESULTS: From an initial pool of over 35,000 studies, 10 were identified as studies appropriate to support SMAC development. The toxicological properties of ethyl acetate are relatively straightforward. Ethyl acetate is
rapidly absorbed and converted by carboxyesterases to ethanol. At concentrations on the order of 400 ppm for 4–8 h, most volunteers experienced mild irritation but no lasting effects. In subchronic animal studies, mild sedative effects and changes in body weight and weight gain were
observed at 750 ppm and above.DISCUSSION: Numerous studies were identified to support the development of both short- and long-duration SMACs. No chronic studies were available, but the high quality of the subchronic studies and the short half-life of ethyl acetate support extrapolation
to longer durations.Williams ES, Ryder VE. Spaceflight maximum allowable concentrations for ethyl acetate. Aerosp Med Hum Perform. 2023; 94(1):25–33.
Test Pilot and Airline Pilot Differences in Facing Unexpected Events

Published: January 2023

BACKGROUND: Unexpected events in flight might decrease the transparency of the flying process and weaken the pilot’s perception of the current state, or even erode manipulating skills. However, during the flight test of a new or modified aircraft, to verify the boundaries
of aircraft aerodynamic performance and handling stability, unexpected events may be encountered that need to be handled by the test pilot. Therefore, studying the differences between test pilots and airline pilots could help improve flight safety.METHODS: Two kinds of physiological
parameters, eye blink rate and average fixation duration and task-related performance of test pilots and airline pilots, were analyzed in three abnormal scenarios. A total of 16 pilots participated. The study was carried out in an A320 flight simulator.RESULTS: The differences were
significant for both test pilots and airline pilots in eye blink rate and average fixation duration. Furthermore, the reaction time of test pilots (Mean = 23.38 s) was significantly shorter than airline pilots (Mean = 42.63 s) in Unreliable Airspeed condition, and the pitch angle deviations
between them were significant in both Wind Shear and Unreliable Airspeed condition.DISCUSSION: The uncertainty of environmental change could create more severe pressure and mental workload influence than actual system failure. For airline pilots, compared with test pilots, the importance
of practicing manual flight should still be emphasized. Improving reactions to unexpected ambient conditions and unannounced fault status could also contribute to flight safety.Zheng Y, Lu Y, Jie Y, Zhao Z, Fu S. Test pilot and airline pilot differences in facing unexpected events.

Jóvenes y colectivos en barrios marginales de Monterrey: aproximaciones a la contingencia de vida y precarización de sí
Authors: Martínez Canales Luis Alejandro , Martínez González Berenice
Published: January 2023

The article analyzes the perceptions of young men and women who intervene in popular and marginal enclaves of the Monterrey metropolitan area, by means of educational and art projects. Conceptually I refer to them as cultural producers as they imagine their own autonomous production. This process, expressed in different modes of subjectivation, is also an instrument that constitutes functional effects of the biopolitical governmentality of western societies. The young members of the collectives go through a variety of aspects with their actions, such as political and cultural self-organization, forms of collaboration, and paid employment. The approach is based on the “contingency of life”, and the “precariousness of oneself” as ambivalent forms of self-government that oscillate between self-exploitation and modes of subjectivation, from which these groups perceive the risks and opportunities of the city as actionable and moldable.

Chronic non-healing wounds have posed a severe threat to patients mentally and physically. Behavior dysregulation of remaining cells at wound sites is recognized as the chief culprit to destroy healing process and hinders wound healing. Therefore, regulating and restoring normal cellular behavior is the core of chronic non-healing wound treatment. In recent years, the therapy with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has become a promising option for chronic wound healing and the efficacy has increasingly been attributed to their exocrine functions. Small extracellular vesicles derived from MSCs (MSC-sEVs) are reported to benefit almost all stages of wound healing by regulating the cellular behavior to participate in the process of inflammatory response, angiogenesis, re-epithelization, and scarless healing. Here, we describe the characteristics of MSC-sEVs and discuss their therapeutic potential in chronic wound treatment. Additionally, we also provide an overview of the application avenues of MSC-sEVs in wound treatment. Finally, we summarize strategies for large-scale production and engineering of MSC-sEVs. This review may possibly provide meaningful guidance for chronic wound treatment with MSC-sEVs.
