The research dealt with climate drought, its types, the causes that lead to drought, and how to reduce drought. Drought in the city of Mosul, northern Iraq, was also analyzed and studied by obtaining monthly rainfall data for the Mosul climate station located within the study area for the period from 1981-2018.
Previous studies and research conducted to study drought in different regions of the world were taken into consideration. Most of these studies and researches use drought indices, which are among the most widely used indices in estimating the amounts of deficit, their use, severity, and their impact on the water balance. The standard rainfall index (SPI) is one of the most widely used indices in estimating climate drought. (SPI) is characterized by many characteristics that distinguish it from other indicators. The standard rainfall index (SPI) technique was used in analyzing rain records. The analysis principle using the standard rainfall index is statistically based on the principle of converting the gamma distribution of the data series to the normal distribution. Positive SPI values mean that there is an increase in rainfall above the average rainfall, i.e. wet years, while negative values mean that there is a decrease in rainfall below the average rainfall, i.e. dry years. SPI values for a period of 12 months were adopted in the analysis because they cover the annual rainfall amount falling on the station during a year. Using the MATLAB program, several networks were created and tested, and the network with the best performance was selected from among the networks. 30 annual rainfall values were used against the SIP values calculated using equations and the Excel program to train the neural network on the data. While the rainfall data for the remaining 8 years were used to verify the results of the neural network by comparing the results of the neural network with the actual values recorded at the measuring station. This network was able to obtain the index value by simply entering the annual rainfall value. By comparing the index value with the drought classification table, the drought class can be determined without resorting to the calculation method. The network with the 1-7-1 structure (input layer, hidden layer containing seven neurons, and output layer) with the TRAINLM training function and the LEARNGDM learning function gave the best performance, as the correlation coefficient between its results and the actual results (which were not included in the training) was equal to 0.99 and the square error rate was 0.014, meaning that the results of this network can be adopted for the purpose of calculating the standard rain index with high confidence in the outputs

The influenza virus (IV) is still of great importance as it poses an imminent threat to humans and animals. Among the three IV-types (A, B, and C) influenza A viruses are clinically the most important being responsible for severe epidemics in humans and domestic animals. Aerosol droplets transmit the virus that causes a respiratory disease in humans that can lead to severe pneumonia and ultimately death. The high mutation rate combined with the high replication rate allows the virus to rapidly adapt to changes in the environment. Thereby, IV escape the existing immunity and become resistant to drugs targeting the virus. This causes annual epidemics and demands for new compositions of the yearly vaccines. Furthermore, due to the nature of their segmented genome, IV can recombine segments. This can eventually lead to the generation of a virus with the ability to replicate in humans and with novel antigenic properties that can be the cause of a pandemic outbreak. For its propagation the virus binds to the target cells and enters the cell to replicate its genome. Newly produced viral proteins and genomes are packaged at the cell membrane where progeny virions are released. As all viruses IV depends on cellular functions and factors for their own propagation, and therefore intensively interact with the cells. This dependency opens new possibilities for anti-viral strategies

RESUMO Objetivo Investigar a relação entre os níveis de adipocinas e outros biomarcadores endócrinos e os desfechos em pacientes hospitalizados com COVID-19. Métodos Estudo prospectivo que incluiu 213 indivíduos com COVID-19 internados na unidade de terapia intensiva, em que foram medidos os níveis de cortisol, peptídeo-C, peptídeo-1 semelhante ao glucagon, insulina, peptídeo YY, grelina, leptina e resistina; analisamos suas contribuições para o agrupamento de pacientes, gravidade da doença e previsão de mortalidade hospitalar. Resultados Os níveis de cortisol, resistina, leptina, insulina e grelina diferiram significativamente entre os grupos por gravidade, conforme definido pela escala de gravidade da Organização Mundial da Saúde. Além disso, níveis mais baixos de grelina e mais altos de cortisol foram associados à mortalidade. A adição de biomarcadores aos preditores clínicos de mortalidade melhorou significativamente a precisão na determinação do prognóstico. A fenotipagem de indivíduos com base nos níveis de biomarcadores plasmáticos produziu dois fenótipos diferentes, que foram associados à gravidade da doença, mas não à mortalidade. Conclusão Como único biomarcador, apenas o cortisol foi independentemente associado à mortalidade; no entanto, os biomarcadores metabólicos podem melhorar a previsão de mortalidade quando associados a parâmetros clínicos. Os fenótipos dos biomarcadores metabólicos foram distribuídos diferencialmente, conforme a gravidade da COVID-19, mas não foram associados à mortalidade.
The Effect of Fiscal Policy Shocks on Private Expenditure: A SVAR Study in Indonesia
Authors: Kaharudin Iszan Hana , Rahman Mohd Syuhaimi Ab
Published: August 2024

This paper examines the effect of fiscal policy on private expenditure in a small open economy (i.e., Indonesia) through an open economy structural VAR (SVAR) study. The data set comprised a quarterly time series spanning from 2000:1-2022:4. Impulse response function (IRF) and variance decomposition (VDC) were used to analyze the effect of fiscal policy shocks on private expenditure. The main results indicated that government spending shocks crowded out private consumption. Domestic income gave a similar negative effect that can be explained by Ricardian equivalence theory which showed a reduction in private consumption. The effect of government tax revenue on private consumption was positive. The results supported the non-Keynesian effect which suggested that the increase in government tax revenue tended to increase private consumption. Similarly, domestic income showed a positive effect.

Current studies indicate that participative leadership is positively and significantly related to workplace well-being. Furthermore, the study's findings indicate that job autonomy mediates between participative leadership and workplace well-being.  In future endeavors, it is important to categorize free trade zone enterprises by size, control, and ownership to assess the positive association between leadership and well-being.
Efficiency of OLS and Huber M estimator in case of Outliers
Authors: Shoukat Sania , Nawaz Shahbaz , Rasheed Muhammad Muzamil , Javaid Anam , Sami Hafiz Abdul
Published: August 2024

Regression analysis is a valuable tool when dealing with real-world datasets that include several types of variables. Assumption fulfillment leads to applying ordinary least square regression (OLS) on the chosen variables. When analyzing data using traditional multiple regression, the optimal technique is the ordinary least squares (OLS) estimate, provided the requirements for regression weights are satisfied. Results and estimates from samples might be misleading if the data does not match all these assumptions. Particularly problematic for least squares regression is the presence of outliers. Robust regression analysis is a typically used method. In outliers, the research aims to compare M-estimators with OLS Estimators. The effectiveness is evaluated by comparing the Huber M estimate's coefficient with the OLS estimators. To achieve the study's objective, we use Microsoft Excel to build a Monte Carlo simulation for the response and explanatory variables, which are typically distributed. The normal distribution is used to create 1,000 randomly selected integers. In order to assess the effectiveness of the estimations, outliers with varying percentages are subsequently inserted. The results demonstrate that OLS was affected by the x- and y-axis outliers. There will be no impact on the Huber M estimate from the x-axis outliers. Outliers in the Y-direction impacted the Huber M findings.

The need to study the characteristic features of teaching classical languages within the framework of theological education is primarily conditioned by constant changes in approaches to educational methods and strategies, in particular, to linguistic training of specialists. The study used such methods as pedagogical and contextual analysis, comparative, and analytical and synthetic methods. The purpose of this study was to investigate the specifics of teaching the basics of classical languages in higher educational institutions in theological specialities. With this in mind, an analysis of Ukrainian and Polish curricula on classical linguistic training was carried out. In particular, it was pointed out that the main purpose of studying Latin and ancient Greek is the ability to translate classical works of art and religious texts. The analysis of educational programmes showed that its main characteristics were such as the study of aphorisms and idioms, lexical minimum (up to 300 words), attention to syntactic constructions, the development of orthoepic and spelling skills, a combination of traditional and interactive methods and educational materials, translation of texts that differ in genre, style, and time of writing. In Polish curricula, more attention was paid to historical linguistics and comparative studies, in particular, the comparison of Latin and ancient Greek, as well as other European languages. The main subtopics of the linguistic sections were indicated: orthoepy (pronunciation, stress, diphthongs, alphabet), phonetics (vowels and consonants, long and short sounds), morphology (grammatical structure, grammatical categories, inflections, conjugation), syntax (subject and predicate matching, word order, peripheral constructions, functions of sentence members, specifics of subordinate clauses). In the future scientific perspective, this paper can be used to develop new educational programmes to improve the classical training of students, compare the educational experience in teaching Latin and ancient Greek in various fields

The level of modern judo development puts forward increased requirements for the general preparation of athletes and its individual components at all stages of long-term training. Special attention is paid to the improvement of the training process at the stage of initial training, which makes it possible to identify promising directions that determine the effectiveness of training wrestlers in techniques. The purpose of the study is to determine the effectiveness of the application of the game method of training in the process of technical improvement of judokas at the stage of initial training. The dynamics of indicators were studied, which ranged from 10% to 66.6% for general physical fitness, from 12.6% to 27.8% for special physical fitness, 12.9-37.5% for technical training, and 13.3% for general physical fitness, for which a pedagogical experiment was used, testing indicators of general and special physical and technical fitness as well as assessment of the level of general physical fitness. Thirty judokas, aged 10-12, took part in the study. Of them, 15 were part of the experimental group, and 15 were part of the control group. An experimental training programme with the use of special educational games was proposed, which contributed to the development of the necessary specialised qualities and the mastery of the basic techniques of judo. The games were divided into several groups depending on the task (games with “touching the opponent”, “blocking grip”, and “attacking grip”). The positive influence of game exercise complexes in studying and improving the technique of judo techniques was revealed, which contributed to the significant optimisation of general and special physical fitness and the general physical performance of athletes’ bodies. A comparative analysis of the dynamics of the studied indicators allowed to state that the athletes of the experimental group, who used an experimental training programme using special educational games, had better results compared to the control group. The practical value of the research lies in the recommendation of the introduction of experimental game methods for improving technical training in judo in the system of multi-year sports improvement, namely, at the stage of initial training

A rapid decrease in the level of daily motor activity of student youth as a result of the transition to distance learning, which is characterised by a high amount of mental and psycho-emotional load, has led to an increase in morbidity and deterioration of the physical condition of students in general, which is an urgent problem. The purpose of the study was to determine the level of physical condition of first-level higher education graduates who are studying pedagogical specialties at Berdyansk State Pedagogical University. In the course of the experiment, a medical-biological research method was used, namely an anthropometric method for measuring body weight and length, body mass index, Erisman index, and chest circumference, to further determine the level of students’ physical condition. In order to process the received data, the methods of mathematical statistics were used. It has been established that the anthropometric indicators of first-level higher education graduates studying pedagogical specialties at Berdyansk State Pedagogical University are within age norms. Some students are overweight. Indicators of the frequency of heart contractions in a state of relative rest are within age norms. In blood pressure indicators, there was a predominance of cases of hypertension in representatives of both sexes. The indicators of the functional state of the students’ respiratory system, according to the Stange test, are within the physiological age norm. The level of physical condition of female students according to the method of O. Pirohova is defined as average; for boys, it is below average. The studies conducted proved that the majority of students have reduced indicators of their physical condition. The results obtained in practice can be taken into account by teachers during the organisation of physical education classes in distance learning conditions

In many traditional communities, sex is considered a unsuitable subject to discuss or at least to talk about openly. This notion is in fact still intact in Indonesia, including among urban communities. Therefore, when sexuality is chosen to be the theme of a novel, moreover written by a woman, it becomes a subject of controversy and raises a lot of open debate and polemic. Apart from many objections, some Indonesian woman writters keep the subject alive in modern Indonesian literature. The author highlights the potrait of "genitals" from insight of women writters. Some are phylosophical, some are more touching the reality of life. The author also presents the idea of gender inequality in the area of literature. In the past it was dominated by male writters, so the recent appearance of some woman writters becomes an interesting phenomenon in Indonesian literature.

Missionaries should have their basic communication skill. Meanwhile, they also need to Hat develop the sort of communication personality, which will help them to communicate the presence of God and His plan to save all human kind. The author proposes that the period of formation is a perfect time to develop that particular requirement. However, they also need to update themselves during the time of services in the program of on-going formation.
