Examining the factors impacting egg consumer prices in Turkiye holds significant importance. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of how specific variables influence market prices and illuminates cause-and-effect relationships in price fluctuations. The study analyzed 131 datasets from Turkiye, covering the period from January 2010 to November 2020, including various factors. The primary aim was to predict the relationships and impacts on egg consumer prices by considering variables such as laying hens feed price, the exchange rate of the US dollar, producer price indices, agricultural producer price indices, feed prices for broilers, corn, barley, and soybeans, utilizing K-nearest neighbors (KNN) regression analysis. Within the model, the consumer price of eggs showed the weakest correlation with the corn variable (r = 0.832). In contrast, the consumer price of eggs displayed the highest correlation with the US dollar exchange rate and soybean variables (r = 0.892). Therefore, it is evident that egg consumer prices are significantly influenced by the costs of raw materials for feed and currency exchange rates. Unlike other studies, this study found that the price of broiler feed also affects consumer egg prices. Thus, it is imperative for Turkiye to implement policies promoting the local supply of imported inputs essential for egg production and adopt measures to manage and mitigate exchange rate fluctuations and production expenses.

Authors: Zhou Yue , Jiang Chenguang , Xu Wei , Hou Zhuoliang , Yuan Yonggui
Published: April 2024

Psychosomatic medicine focuses on exploring the interactions of biological, psychological, and social factors in regulating the balance between health and disease. Recent shifts in disease spectra and medical models have contributed to the heightened prevalence and burden of psychosomatic diseases, posing new challenges to the contemporary health-care system. Consequently, there has been an imperative drive toward intensified research in psychosomatic medicine. Neuroscience methodologies have been widely applied in the research of psychosomatic diseases, facilitating the exploration of underlying causal mechanisms of psychosomatic diseases and the examination of correlations between brain function, specific organ systems, and clinical manifestations. This article offers a review of the contemporary research developments in 2023 regarding the pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, and intervention strategies for psychosomatic diseases, approached from various systemic perspectives. Drawing upon these insights, it offers an outlook on the future of psychosomatic medicine, aiming to enhance the integration of body–mind to clinical practice for the management of psychosomatic diseases.

Authors: Imran ul Haq  , Dr. Shabir Hussain  , Dr. Farrukh Shahzad
Published: April 2024

This study analyzes news reports on the Taliban conflict published in the daily Dawn newspaper to identify the factors responsible for shifts in press narratives in an environment of diverse and conflicting voices over the period 2001-2015. The study shows different reporting patterns during the governments of the Pakistan Muslim League Quaid-i-Azam, PML (Q) led by President Pervez Musharraf, the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), and the Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N). Using quantitative content analysis and using the conceptual framework of political contest theory, this study examines how the competing positions of political actors were mediated by the journalistic agency. The results show that the selected newspaper treated the official and dissenting sources differently during different regimes, meaning that press support for official or dissenting sources constantly changed according to the changing political environment. In addition, the results related to the press's treatment of tones in headlines indicate that the positive, negative, and neutral trend toward government policies during the Taliban conflict in different regimes did not remain static and was constantly changing.

Effects of High-Dose Vitamin C on Liver Function, Systemic Inflammatory and Immune Responses in Patients with Severe Acute Pancreatitis
Authors: Zhuang Yaping , Xiao Xing
Published: April 2024

The objective of this study was to explore the impact of high-dose vitamin C on severe acute pancreatitis patients. This study involved 76 hospital patients from November 2022 to November 2023, divided into two groups: a high-dose group (44 patients) receiving 10 g of vitamin C daily and a routine-dose group (32 patients) receiving 1 g daily. The study evaluated treatment effects, liver function, inflammation levels, and blood T-lymphocyte subsets and complications. At 14 days, the high-dose group showed better overall treatment effects, lower levels of liver enzymes and inflammatory markers, and higher levels of T lymphocytes, with no significant difference in complications compared to the routine-dose group. The findings suggest that high-dose vitamin C effectively improves liver function, reduces inflammation, and boosts immunity in severe acute pancreatitis patients.

Authors: Meng-Ye Zhang , Si-Yuan Hu , Yi Zhang , Yue-Yue Chen , Qiu-Han Cai
Published: April 2024

Traditional Chinese medicine plays an increasingly important role in the treatment of acute diarrhea in children. However, no systematic review has been published on the use of Erxieting Granule to treat acute diarrhea in children. Therefore, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of Erxieting Granule for treating acute diarrhea in children. From inception until August 2, 2022, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of Erxieting Granule for the treatment of acute diarrhea in children were extracted from the databases. The literature was screened per the standard of arrangement and then extracted and assessed. Furthermore, RevMan 5.4 software was used for statistical analysis. A total of 4208 children with acute diarrhea were included in the 13 RCTs. The meta-analysis revealed that Erxieting Granule alone or in combination with Montmorillonite Powder can improve the total effective rate on the third day, shorten the regression time of diarrhea, vomiting, and abdominalgia, and have better drug safety, rendering it suitable for clinical reference. Nevertheless, the low quality of the included literature necessitates large-sample, high-quality studies to validate these conclusions.

Authors: Firera Firera , Al Musadieq Mochammad , Solimun Solimun , Hutahayan Benny
Published: April 2024

This research investigates the relationship between purchasing performance and material inventory performance with the fiscal term as a moderating variable on sustainable economic levels in Indonesia's upstream oil and gas industry. Data were collected over five years (2017-2021) from 26 Production Sharing Contract Contractors (PSCC) in Indonesia during the preliminary Plan of Development (POD) phase. This research uses Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results showed that purchasing performance significantly affects sustainable economic levels, and material inventory performance has no significant effect on sustainable economic levels. Fiscal term moderation on the influence of purchasing arrangements on sustainable economic levels has a significant impact. In contrast, fiscal term moderation on the influence of material inventory performance on sustainable economic levels has an insignificant effect. This research provides a comprehensive framework by explaining the influence of purchasing performance and material inventory performance with the fiscal term moderating variable on sustainable economic levels as a novelty in this research.
Implementation of Urban Planning Parameters for the Needs of the Spatial Planning Process in Kosovo
Authors: Gashi Ferim , Ramadani Ibrahim
Published: April 2024

This paper consists of finding a way to implement some norms of urban planning in the process of drafting the urban development plan, that in are ignored in many cases. The plan is considered a development process to be carried out in several phases, such as the analysis of the existing situation, the vision provisions, and its implementation for the specified period. Based on the development program, the future functions of the city are determined, its increase at the end of the foreseen planning period, and the completion of new material elements of the city. All these predictions in the urban development plan should be realized in the foreseen period. For this reason, the program must rely on preliminary testing, analysis, and budgeting.
Can They Fix It? YES, They Can: Rebalancing the Scale of Financial Security on Construction Projects
Authors: Grubb Allie
Published: April 2024

The construction industry is one of the most dominant industries worldwide. The United States is no stranger to development and growth, and as so, it possesses one of the largest construction industries in the world. Given the magnitude of the industry, it is no secret that every party involved in a construction project feels the loom of financial risks and that such risks continue to plague the industry. The government, particularly the legislature, has a special influence in that the laws it passes can either encourage continued development and make the industry flourish or bring it to a complete stop, bringing detrimental loss to all involved. Texas is evidence of this when it deemed construction workers “essential” during the COVID-19 pandemic. While many businesses struggled to stay afloat, the development of projects across the state continued. This Comment explores what it is like to be exposed financially as a lower-tier party on a construction project and the protections that exist in law for them. Specifically, this Comment will dive deep into the remedies of Texas law, analyzing the realities of their use coupled with their complexities. Additionally, it will examine the laws of other states to illustrate the unique complexities that exist in Texas law. Finally, this Comment will conclude with proposed changes that seek to streamline the financial lifeline of many construction industry participants.
Time to get some ZZs? Navigating Generation Z values in extension programming through a systems lens
Authors: Cantrell Megan , Baker Lauri M. , Yang Cheng-Xian
Published: April 2024

The purpose of this study was to identify programming values of Generation Z college students to offer insight into future programming and adaptation of current systems within Extension to prepare for the next generation of stakeholders. Researchers approached this study with the philosophy that Extension should aspire to be a learning organization and continually seek to understand current and future stakeholders to navigate societal changes. Q-methodology was used to quantitatively capture student priorities for 42 programming areas with three subcategories of people, environment, and economy and jobs. An initial sample of 158 was paired down to a P-set of 21. Results of the Q-Sort indicated three factors of group priorities: (a) Economic and People-Centric; (b) People-Environment Centric with Limited Focus; and (c) Environmental-Centric. Results show a need for programming related to the environment and the protection of natural resources (Factor 3) and addressing societal concerns like drug and alcohol abuse (Factor 1). For non-urban and prior Extension user audiences (Factor 2) developing programming that connects environmental issues with people and societal issues is important. Future research should be conducted in other Extension systems to develop a broad understanding of Generation Z’s programming needs.

Published: April 2024

The Produce Safety Alliance (PSA) Grower Training (GT) curriculum was developed to provide produce growers with training that meets requirements in §112.22(c) of the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) Produce Safety Rule (PSR). Four regional food safety centers evaluated course attendees’ knowledge change over four years (2019 to 2022) using a pre- and post-test quiz. Knowledge assessment results showed (a) respondents gained knowledge on each of the seven modules presented in the curriculum; (b) the curriculum content had a large effect on knowledge gain; (c) knowledge gain differed significantly between years, but the differences were not of practical importance; (d) remote participants learned significantly more than in-person participants, but differences were not of practical importance; and (e) the quiz consisted of low and moderate difficulty questions (no questions were high difficulty) and had generally acceptable discriminant properties. Implementation of the FSMA PSR has progressed from an educational to a regulatory phase, and the authors recommend replacing the knowledge assessment with a tool that measures how the PSA course prepares growers for compliance.

Authors: Tassana Thammaros  , Nutta Taneepanichskul
Published: April 2024

Background: Hypertension services were disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Telemedicine was heavily used to overcome this disruption. The aims of this study were to describe a typical hypertension service and recommendations for telemedicine development for hypertension patients in a rural, Sub-District-level, primary healthcare center.Methods: A qualitative case study was utilized. In-depth interviews were conducted with healthcare staff at a rural primary healthcare center in April 2023. The interview process was continued until data saturation had been achieved. Data from the interviews were assessed via the triangulation method. Analytic induction was used to analyze the data.Conclusion: The total number of participants was 10 persons (3 male and 7 female). The median age was 42 years old (min. 32, max. 58). The qualitative results revealed that participants believed that telemedicine provided adequate hypertension services. The patients’ data was sent from the primary healthcare center to the secondary hospital (Provincial level) via the internet system. Communications between the patients and doctors at the provincial hospital were executed via video calls. All services were performed and completed at the primary healthcare center. The use of telemedicine by Sub-District healthcare hospitals could mitigate the limitations of traditional care, such as the lack of physicians, delays in treatment, and limited medical equipment. The engagement of stakeholders was the key factor in the success and sustainability of the program.

The days we never forget: Flashbulb memories across the life span in Alzheimer’s disease
Authors: Rasmussen Katrine W. , Kirk Marie , Overgaard Susanne B. , Berntsen Dorthe
Published: April 2024

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by autobiographical memory deficits, with the ability to retrieve episodic-rich memories being particularly affected. Here, we investigated the influence of AD on a specific subtype of episodic memories known as flashbulb memories (i.e., the ability to remember the personal circumstances for the reception of important news events). We examined the frequency, characteristics, and the temporal distribution of flashbulb memories across the life span. To this aim, 28 older adults diagnosed with AD and a matched sample of 29 healthy older controls were probed for flashbulb memories for two historical events from each decade of their lives. They also estimated the subjective degree of reexperiencing for the memories reported. AD participants showed impaired access to flashbulb memories, the frequency of reported memories being lower than for healthy older adults. However, qualitative aspects of AD participants’ flashbulb memories were quite similar to those of the controls, as no group differences were obtained with respect to the canonical categories or degree of reexperience. AD participants’ flashbulb memories clustered during the early years of their life, consistent with a reminiscence bump, whereas healthy controls also reported memories dated to later lifetime periods. Our results suggest that probing for personal memories of important public events may serve as a powerful cue for detailed episodic memories in AD.
Refining Bayesian hierarchical MPT modeling: Integrating prior knowledge and ordinal expectations
Authors: Sarafoglou Alexandra , Kuhlmann Beatrice G. , Aust Frederik , Haaf Julia M.
Published: April 2024

Multinomial processing tree (MPT) models are a broad class of statistical models used to test sophisticated psychological theories. The research questions derived from these theories often go beyond simple condition effects on parameters and involve ordinal expectations (e.g., the same-direction effect on the memory parameter is stronger in one experimental condition than another) or disordinal expectations (e.g., the effect reverses in one experimental condition). Here, we argue that by refining common modeling practices, Bayesian hierarchical models are well suited to estimate and test these expectations. Concretely, we show that the default priors proposed in the literature lead to nonsensical predictions for individuals and the population distribution, leading to problems not only in model comparison but also in parameter estimation. Rather than relying on these priors, we argue that MPT modelers should determine priors that are consistent with their theoretical knowledge. In addition, we demonstrate how Bayesian model comparison may be used to test ordinal and disordinal interactions by means of Bayes factors. We apply the techniques discussed to empirical data from Bell et al. Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 41, 456–472 (2015).

Authors: Fernández-Castilla Belén , Said-Metwaly Sameh , Kreitchmann Rodrigo S. , Van Den Noortgate Wim
Published: April 2024

Meta-analysis is often recognized as the highest level of evidence due to its notable advantages. Therefore, ensuring the precision of its findings is of utmost importance. Insufficient reporting in primary studies poses challenges for meta-analysts, hindering study identification, effect size estimation, and meta-regression analyses. This manuscript provides concise guidelines for the comprehensive reporting of qualitative and quantitative aspects in primary studies. Adhering to these guidelines may help researchers enhance the quality of their studies and increase their eligibility for inclusion in future research syntheses, thereby enhancing research synthesis quality. Recommendations include incorporating relevant terms in titles and abstracts to facilitate study retrieval and reporting sufficient data for effect size calculation. Additionally, a new checklist is introduced to help applied researchers thoroughly report various aspects of their studies.

Potential of a deep eutectic solvent in silver nanoparticle fabrication for antibiotic residue detection
Authors: Tho Le Hong , Khuyen Bui Xuan , Mai Ngoc Xuan Dat , Tran Nhu Hoa Thi
Published: April 2024

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have recently emerged as an alternative solvent for nanoparticle synthesis. There have been numerous advancements in the fabrication of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), but the potential of DESs in Ag NP synthesis was neither considered nor studied carefully. In this study, we present a novel strategy to fabricate Ag NPs in a DES (Ag NPs-DES). The DES composed of ᴅ-glucose, urea, and glycerol does not contain any anions to precipitate with Ag+ cations. Our Ag NPs-DES sample is used in a surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensor. The two analytes for SERS quantitation are nitrofurantoin (NFT) and sulfadiazine (SDZ) whose residues can be traced down to 10−8 M. The highest enhancement factors (EFs) are competitive at 6.29 × 107 and 1.69 × 107 for NFT and SDZ, respectively. Besides, the linearity coefficients are extremely close to 1 in the range of 10−8 to 10−3 M of concentration, and the SERS substrate shows remarkable uniformity along with great selectivity. This powerful SERS performance indicates that DESs have tremendous potential in the synthesis of nanomaterials for biosensor substrate construction.

Antara Hasrat dan Privasi Diri: Anonimitas Penggemar Cerita Alternative Universe Harry Potter dengan Genre Homoseksual di Twitter
Authors: Dhiah Indriani Laillia
Published: April 2024

Understanding the diversity of sexuality is still taboo in Indonesia. This directly leads to the practice of marginalising groups with homosexual sexual orientation. Those who have homosexual tendencies cannot freely express themselves, both in the virtual and real worlds. This hegemony of heteronormativity then began to receive a kind of counter-hegemony from various parties, one of which was from the writers and readers of the Alternative Universe (hereinafter referred to as AU) Harry Potter on Twitter. Harry Potter itself is a fictional story with the theme of the wizarding world written by J.K. Rowling, which is often reproduced by fans through various media; AU is one of them. Through AU, fans can imagine creating their own stories using the characters in the Harry Potter story series. One of the highlights of this AU version is when fans make the people in the Harry Potter characters homosexual. Not only does it involve fantasy and imagination, fans also pay attention to their personal identity when interacting with homosexual stories. This study aims to find out how writers and readers of Harry Potter AU stories on Twitter play out homosexual fantasies, as well as how privacy management is used to feel safe interacting with homosexual subjects. To answer these questions, the author conducted research using the netnography method on Twitter. In the process, the author not only looked at user interactions on each Harry Potter AU story but also distributed questionnaires and interviews to the author and readers of the AU story. As for data analysis, the author uses the concept of schizoanalysis from Deleuze and Guattari and combines it with Sandra Petronio's communication privacy management theory. The results of this study show that writers and readers of Harry Potter AUs with homosexual characters have a tendency to want to hide their personal information. They do not want to be recognised when interacting with homosexual stories, even though they are actually very interested in them. This is partly due to social pressure that still upholds heteronormativity.

El primero de ellos, es el sistema basado en pórticos especiales de hormigón fundamentado en el sistema conocido como tradicional o fundido in situ, el segundo está conformado por losas de entrepiso unidireccionales y de estructuras metálicas con placas colaborantes Deck, apoyadas sobre vigas que transmiten sus cargas a las columnas y cimentaciones.  Esta comparación se la hace poniendo en práctica el método analítico propuesto por el Dr. Arquitecto Juan Monjo Carrió. (Juan Monjo, 1986), el mismo que considera: los condicionantes funcionales, condiciones constructivas, perfil tecnológico, análisis de subsistemas y los condicionantes económicos. Al final se comparan los resultados dentro de cada una de estas consideraciones y se concluye que: el dominio del sistema de pilares y vigas de hormigón in situ sobre el de viguetas metálicas, parece que se justifica por dos razones fundamentales, por una parte, la mayor adecuación de su técnica constructiva con la situación del sector de la construcción y, por otra, el menor coste a corto plazo de los materiales, esto se evidencia con el puntaje total de cada uno de los sistemas 15 puntos vs 13.

Dünya çapında kentleşme ve nüfus artışına bağlı olarak enerjiye olan ihtiyaç artmaktadır. İhtiyaç duyulan enerjinin büyük bir kısmının fosil yakıtlardan sağlanması, enerji talebini karşılamada yetersiz kalmakta ve çevre kirliliğini arttırmaktadır. Bu nedenle ülkeler düşük karbonlu enerji olan nükleer ve yenilenebilir enerjiye geçişi hızlandırmak için arayış içindedirler. Düşük karbonlu enerjiye geçiş, çevresel baskıyı azaltırken enerji arzını artırmaktadır. Enerji ve çevre alanında temiz teknolojilerin geliştirilmesi Ar-Ge faaliyetleri ve inovasyonla gerçekleştirilebilmektedir. Bu çalışmada 1993-2019 dönemi için Türkiye’de çevresel inovasyon ve ar-ge harcamalarının düşük karbonlu enerji (nükleer ve yenilenebilir enerji) tüketimi üzerindeki etkisi Fourier ADL eşbütünleşme ve Fourier Toda-Yamamoto Nedensellik testleri ile araştırılmaktadır. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre incelenen değişkenler arasında uzun dönemli bir ilişki bulunmamaktadır. Öte yandan çevresel inovasyondan düşük karbonlu enerji tüketimine ve Ar-Ge harcamalarından düşük karbonlu enerji tüketimine doğru tek yönlü nedensellik ilişkisi bulunmaktadır. Kamu Ar-Ge harcamaları ve çevresel inovasyondan düşük karbonlu enerjiye yönelik nedensellik ilişkisinin bulunması, Ar-Ge harcamaları ve çevresel inovasyonun çok yönlü potansiyel etkilerini destekler nitelikte olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Türkiye'de düşük karbonlu enerjiye geçişin sağlanabilmesi için kümülatif bir süreç olan çevresel inovasyona ve buna yardımcı olacak Ar-Ge harcamalarına önem verilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu kapsamda Ar-Ge faaliyetleri ve çevresel inovasyonu teşvik edecek vergi indirimleri, vergi muafiyetleri ve sübvansiyonlar gibi vergi ve harcama politikalarıyla desteklenen kamu politikalarının uygulanması etkili olabilir.
Aron’un Politika Felsefesinde Ilımlı Liberalizm
Authors: Görüşük Levent
Published: April 2024

Fransa’nın devrimci ve radikal geçmişiyle kontrast oluşturan ılımlı liberal geleneği, çeşitli alanlardaki akademik çalışmalarıyla üstlenen Raymond Aron, XX. yüzyılın önemli Fransız liberal entelektüellerinden biri olarak dikkatleri üzerine çekmektedir. Sosyoloji başta olmak üzere politika, tarih, felsefe ve uluslararası ilişkiler gibi oldukça derin ve geniş bir yelpaze içerisinde entelektüel zenginliğe sahip olan Aron’un düşünce dünyasına politika felsefesi üzerinden projeksiyon tutmayı amaçlayan bu çalışma, aynı zamanda çift katmanlı bir gayeyi de mahiyetinde barındırmaktadır. Politika felsefesi bağlamında, tarihin deterministik açımlamasına yönelik eleştirileriyle olumsallığın, bireylerin eylemlerindeki özgürlüğün ve politikanın özerkliğinin imkanını açığa çıkaran Aron, aksinin toplumsal ve politik çoğulculuğu tahrip eden totalitarizme nasıl kaynaklık ettiğini derinlemesine analiz etmektedir. Seküler dinler olarak karakterize ettiği ilgili ideolojik yaklaşımın, indirgeyici ve tek boyutlu anlam dünyasına alternatif olarak sunduğu anayasal-çoğulcu rejimler, onun Tocquevilleci geleneğin (negatif-pozitif özgürlüğün kabulü, politikanın önceliği, ılımlılık ve sağduyu) devamlılığını sağladığının kavramsal boyutunu kanıtlar bir niteliğe sahiptir. Çalışmanın ikinci katmanı ise bir ön kabulün reddiyesi niteliğindedir. Aron, sanayi toplumuyla birlikte ortaya çıkan zihniyet değişiminin yansımalarına yönelik sosyolojik analizlerini, tüm bu değişimlerin içerisindeki değişmeyen öze yönelik felsefi sorgulamalarla sentezlemesi entelektüel konumunun anlaşılması adına değerlidir. Çünkü, Kıta Avrupası’nın felsefesi düşünce mirasının bir mensubu olarak siyaset sosyolojisinde Anglo-Amerikan merkezli yaklaşımların felsefesi köklerini ve derinliğini yitirdiği eleştirisinin yoğun olduğu bir çağda, her iki geleneği de uhdesinde barınmasın açısından seçkin bir yere sahiptir.
İnovasyon Yapma Olasılığının Belirleyicileri: Ukrayna Firmaları Örneği

Bu çalışma, Rusya ile savaş halinde olan Ukrayna’yı ele alarak firmaların inovasyon (yenilik) yapma olasılıklarını etkileyen faktörleri incelemektedir. Ülkeye ait temel ekonomik göstergeler ve inovasyon göstergeleri incelendiğinde düşük bir performans sergilediği görülmektedir. Analiz için 2019 yılına ait firma düzeyinde bir veri setinden yararlanılmakta olup bilgi üretim fonksiyonuna dayanan iki probit modeli kullanmaktadır. Bu modeller maksimum olabilirlik yöntemi ile tahmin edilmektedir. Probit modelinin tercih edilme sebebi bağımlı değişkenlerin kukla değişken olmalarıdır. Bulgular, çalışan sayısındaki ve çalışan başına Ar-Ge harcamalarındaki artışın ürün inovasyonunu olumlu yönde etkilediğini ortaya koymaktadır. Ana pazarı uluslararası olan firmaların ise ürün yeniliği yapma olasılıklarının ana pazarı yerel olan firmalarınkinden daha düşük olduğu gözlenmektedir. Bir web sitesine sahip olmak süreç yeniliği olasılığını azaltmaktadır ve ana pazarı ulusal olan firmaların süreç yeniliği yapma olasılıkları ana pazarı yerel olan firmalarınkinden daha düşüktür. Son olarak işçi başına Ar-Ge harcaması süreç yeniliği yapma açısından anlamlı bir etki doğurmamaktadır. Çalışma, Ukrayna’nın inovasyonu geliştirmek için firma düzeyinde istihdamı ve Ar-Ge harcamalarını artırmaya odaklanabileceğini öne sürmektedir. Ayrıca firmaların hem ulusal hem de uluslararası pazarlara uyum sağlamalarının gerekliliği vurgulanmaktadır. Ancak Rusya ile devam eden çatışma nedeniyle bu politikalara ayrılacak kaynaklar savaşın finansmanına yönlendirilmiş olabilir. Bu da bahsi geçen politika önerilerinin uygulanmasını zorlaştırabilir.

Background and objectives. Forward head posture is associated with weakness in deep cervical short flexor & shortening of the opposing cervical extensor & Pectoralis muscles. Deep cervical flexor (DCF) has a major postural function in supporting and straightening the cervical lordosis. There were few studies on the correlation between craniovertebral angle & vertical mandibular opening. So there was a need to evaluate the effect of deep cervical muscle strengthening on forward head posture and vertical mandibular opening and find out the correlation between vertical mandibular opening (VMO) and craniovertebral angle(CVA). Materials and methods. A total of 84 subjects were included in an experimental study. Subjects were screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Selected CVA were assessed using MB ruler software (ICC= 0.88). Selected VMO was measured using a ruler (ICC= 0.95-0.96). Subjects received DCF strengthening using pressure biofeedback, 2 sets of 10 repetitions, 5 days per week for 4 weeks. “Paired t test” was used within the group to test the change in quantitative data, pre-intervention and post-intervention. For the correlation between VMO & CVA, Pearson’s correlation coefficient test was used. Results. Strengthening of DCF using pressure biofeedback was effective in improving CVA & VMO (p value <0.0001) and moderate the positive correlation (r=0.4509) exist between CVA & VMO (p value <0.0001). Conclusions. The study concluded that strengthening of deep cervical flexors using pressure biofeedback is effective on improving vertical mandibular opening & craniovertebral angle in young adults (18-30 years) with forward head posture.
