Authors: Wongsanuphat Suphanat , Praekunatham Hirunwut , Jitpeera Charuttaporn , Thammawijaya Panithee
Published: March 2024

In Northern Thailand, increasing seasonal agricultural residue burning has led to public concern about health risks. This study aimed to examine the associations between air pollutants related to agricultural residue burning and morbidity from acute cardiopulmonary diseases in upper Northern Thailand in 2018. An ecological study was conducted. Emergency room visits and hospitalizations for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), stroke, myocardial infarction (MI), and asthma were extracted from the National Electronic Health Record database. We interpolated air pollution data to estimate weekly pollutant concentrations, including PM10, PM2.5, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide and ozone from 1 Jan to 31 Dec 2018. Associations between air pollution and health outcomes were analyzed using a mixed effect model incorporating different lag structures. Overall pollutant concentrations exceeded WHO air quality standard levels throughout March and April, which is the end of forest burning prohibition campaign. Morbidity from COPD, stroke, MI and asthma slightly increased over March–April. For every increase in PM2.5 level of 10 μg/m3, the relative risk of COPD, stroke, MI and asthma 1 week later was 1.10 (95% CI 1.09–1.12), 1.06 (1.05–1.08), 1.06 (1.04–1.08) and 1.06 (1.01–1.12), respectively. The effects of agricultural residue burning should be highlighted and policies should be developed to deter this practice.

Published: March 2024

Les activités anthropiques sont la seule responsable principale de tous les désastres environnementaux. Les inquiétudes résident dans la difficulté des scientifiques à prévoir à long terme les retentissements de cette destruction sur les compartiments de l’environnement. Les ménages du quartier Mbuku utilisent sans cesse les matières énergétiques pour assurer leur survie. Ces matières semblent être couteuses au regard de leurs revenues journaliers, mensuels et même annuels. Ces matières sont notamment : les bois, braises, pétroles, piles, et le groupe électrogène qui font partie de leur quotidien, avec des conséquences sur l’environnement. Par ignorance, ces ménages gaspillent énormément les ressources tant naturelles que financières. Des grosses sommes d’argent sont engagées dans les dépenses pour ces matières, alors que la facture de la SNEL serait moins chère, rationnelle et favorable à l’équilibre écologie - économie. Les tableaux nous renseignent que les quantités en kg et les montants en franc congolais sont l’œuvre de ces ménages au détriment de l’éco- économie. Les bois, braises et les pétroles ont l’usage journalier, les piles et groupe électrogène sont utilisés hebdomadairement. De ce fait, ces ménages ne sont pas favorables à la jonction entre l’écologie et l’économie. Après une enquête et analyse, le bilan écologique de ces ménages du quartier Mbuku est négatif.

Ce travail nous a permis dans un premier temps de faire un petit rappel sur les circonstances de l’assassinat de Lumumba, Polo et Okito. En second lieu il a été question de comprendre les causes de notre sous-développement et d’envisager le développement de notre pays. En ce sens nous avons proposé des reformes intérieures, le décollage de l’agriculture, une place de choix aux mécanismes de marché et aux initiatives décentralisées dans le reste de l’économie et c’est à l’instar de la Chine. Sur le plan sécuritaire, au-delà de la diplomatie, notre armée devra monter en puissance et comptabiliser au moins 14 millions de militaires actifs.

Published: March 2024

Cette étude tente d’analyser l’accès aux services de l’Hôpital Pédiatrique de Kalembelembe afin d’identifier les facteurs qui prédisposent l’accès aux services de santé de cette formation. Il poursuit comme objectif d’identifier les facteurs de l’accès aux soins de santé offerts par les services de l’Hôpital Pédiatrique de Kalembelembe à la population de Kinshasa afin de contribuer à l’amélioration du rôle et de la place de cet établissement dans l’offre de soins de la ville de Kinshasa. Nous avons mené une enquête par échantillonnage aléatoire et stratifié, en ce qui concerne les facteurs prédisposant l’accès à l’hôpital. Les données ont été traitées suivant différentes techniques, à savoir : le système d’information géographique pour la production des cartes et l’analyse des corrélations. L’examen des indices relatifs à la fréquentation des malades par commune nous a édifiés sur les origines géographiques de recrutement, notamment les différentes zones de santé de la ville province de Kinshasa. Il ressort de nos investigations que les possibilités financières, la proximité de l’hôpital par rapport à la résidence, la qualité de soins due à la compétence du personnel soignant sont autant des facteurs qui prédisposent à l’accès aux soins de santé de l’Hôpital Pédiatrique de Kalembelembe. Le faible accès aux soins de santé pédiatrique constitue un problème majeur de santé publique. Pour y remédier, il revient au gouvernement central d’implanter des formations médicales pédiatriques basées sur les besoins plutôt que sur le revenu de façon à réduire les disparités d’utilisation, à assurer un accès juste afin d’aboutir à une répartition équitable, contraintes liées aux coûts des services médicaux sanitaires.

This weekend I continued my work on getting the CDK and Jmol run with free, open source JVMs. Really, a lot works fine, as reported earlier in this blog: JChemPaint works and Jmol almost works (see the Classpath’s FreeSwingTestApps wiki page), and well over 95% of the CDK JUnit tests run without trouble too. So it comes down to identifying what does not run properly, and file bugs for this. For example, 26101 and 26108.

Unveiling the Best-fit Model: A Comparative Analysis of Classification Methods in Predicting Student Success
Authors: Daligcon Anette Guimmayen , Jemima Priyadarshini  , Decena Lilibeth Rivera
Published: March 2024

To reduce failure and personalize instruction, educators work to predict student achievement. For this objective, this study compared several categorization techniques. The study investigated techniques employing datasets from Portuguese schools, even though various circumstances make it difficult to gather full data and achieve high accuracy. Upon evaluating the various algorithms, including Random Forest and Decision Trees, the study determined that Random Forest was the most successful model, attaining a 94.55% accuracy rate. This demonstrates how machine learning—more especially, Random Forest—could forecast student achievement. The study opens the door for applying these techniques to early interventions and personalized learning. But more work needs to be done, such as creating publicly accessible educational datasets and investigating different strategies like regression algorithms to manage the nuances of grading systems more effectively.

Problems of regulation of professional activities of guides and guides – translators in the Republic of Kazakhstan
Authors:   Kazakh Academy of Sport and Tourism, Lyuterovich Oleg , Zhaksybekova Dinara ,   Kazakh Academy of Sports and Tourism
Published: March 2024

In the past 2023, on the pages of the magazine «Tourism, Leisure and Hospitality», our authors have repeatedly raised issues related to the often-unsatisfactory work of Kazakhstani guides and translation guides. In this article, we will try, in addition to the previously mentioned reasons explaining this situation, to consider those that seem systemic to us, which have not allowed us to effectively solve the problems of training and quality work of this category of tourism entities for many years. To date, these problems lie in the fact that the Law «On Tourism Activities in the Republic of Kazakhstan» (as amended in May 2023) does not precisely define the meaning of the terms applied to the definition of tourism entities providing information and organizational services to tourists; in the absence of a standard for the training of regional guides-translators and guides; The fact is that there is practically no communication between the authorized bodies in the field of tourism with specialized researchers on the subject of publishing methodological literature for the training of guides and guides – translators. Another important problem is that the register of professions of the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection of the Population of the Republic of Kazakhstan does not reflect the status of specialists providing information and organizational services to inbound and domestic tourists in our country.

Published: March 2024

The article discusses the potential for the development of ethnocultural parks and ethnic tourism in Kazakhstan. The main directions and problems of development of this field of activity are revealed. The importance of the development of ethnocultural and geographical parks in ethnotourism is noted, as one of the decisive factors determining the prospects for the development of tourism in Kazakhstan, which occupies a special place in the field of internal and external tourism. The rich heritage, demonstration of cultural and everyday achievements, and the increasing high demand for traditions, characteristics and customs of the Kazakh people have a great influence on the development of ethnocultural tourism. Ethnic tourism is considered an integral part of cultural and educational tourism. In developed countries, ethnic parks are a highly profitable activity in the tourism industry. Therefore, further diversification of ethnic theme parks is considered a priority in ethnic tourism. It is ethnic parks that make it possible to discover, preserve and develop the traditions and customs of diverse ethnocultural groups by immersing themselves in the historical, national, geographical, sociocultural, human, legal and environmental environment.

Das Cannabisgesetz (CanG) tritt mit einigen Vorbehalten planmäßig zum 1. April 2024 in Kraft. Die (teilweise) Entkriminalisierung von Cannabis stellt einen wichtigen Schritt zu einer nachhaltigeren und vorurteilsfreieren Drogenpolitik dar. Gleichzeitig fördert das Gesetz aber auch zukünftig soziale Diskriminierung. Zum einen aufgrund der Versorgungsproblematik nach dem 1. April. Zum anderen, weil Cannabis-Clubs als verlässliche Alternative zum privaten Eigenanbau eher exklusiv bleiben dürften.
