Industrial development of the Arctic territories is a crucial direction in the development of our country. Expanding the market for confectionery products requires increasing their safety in various climatic conditions, which is only possible by ensuring quality indicators that guarantee their specified shelf life. Studies of confectionery products stored in conditions of unregulated negative temperatures of permafrost, according to organoleptic, physico-chemical and microbiological quality indicators, have been conducted. “Iris Kiss-Kiss” candies, “Strawberry” cookies, homemade crackers, biscuits, and chocolate were stored at unregulated low temperatures. In cookies, crackers, and biscuits, a foreign odor and rancid taste caused by oxidation products of the fat fraction were detected. As for chocolate after storage, heavy bloom and significant changes in structure and consistency were revealed. The moisture content of the chocolate increased. Storage conditions at low temperatures and high humidity increase the risk of microorganism development and microbiological spoilage. The results obtained allow concluding that long-term storage of confectionery products is possible under unregulated low temperatures.

A number of authors put forward a hypothesis about the role of systemic subclinical vascular inflammation characteristic of COVID-19 in the development of peripheral complications of this infection, including in the oral cavity. Notably, there is a high incidence of gingivitis and periodontitis in patients after COVID-19. Material and methods. 35 patients diagnosed with chronic generalized periodontitis and chronic gingivitis in the acute stage were followed-up on an outpatient basis. All patients had a history of COVID-19 in the past 2 to 6 months. The patients were divided into two groups: the study group (n = 18) and the control group (n = 17). All patients underwent professional oral hygiene. In the study group, low-intensity laser therapy procedures were performed with preliminary application of a liposomal gel. Clinical research methods included taking an anamnesis, examination, and determination of indices (CFE index, Green Vermilion index, PMA index, CI index, Russell’s index). Research results. After therapy, all patients of the study group had grade 1 CFE index up to 4 (compensated); in the patients of the control group, grade 1–2 CFE was determined (compensated — in 88.2 % of the patients and subcompensated — in 11.8 %). After therapy, the Green Vermilion index decreased in both groups by 40.5 % and 31.3 %, with no significant intergroup difference. The PMA index decreased by 88.8 % in the study group and by 71.5 % in the control group. The index of bleeding reduced by 86.4 % in the study group and by 60.9 % in the control group. The Russell’s index, which allows taking into account the presence of gingivitis, tooth mobility, and the depth of the periodontal pocket, was also considered. Its value decreased by 92.3 % in the study group and by 63.8 % in the control group. Conclusions. The developed therapeutic complex, which includes low-intensity laser exposure with preliminary application of the liposomal gel, is more effective than the standard approach to the treatment of this pathology.

Authors: Parvin Parnian , Mahani Fatemeh , Cheraghi Leila , Yari-Boroujeni Reza , Azizi Fereidoun , Amiri Parisa
Published: March 2024

Background: The long-term effects of childhood screen time on health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are still unclear. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between screen time during adolescence and sex-specific HRQoL in early youth. Methods: We studied the data from 642 adolescents aged 13-19 years, who participated in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study from 2005 to 2011 (baseline) with complete data on HRQoL in their early adulthood (22-28 years at the last follow-up). Physical and Mental HRQoL were assessed using the Iranian version of the short-form 12-item health survey version 2 (SF-12v2). Screen time and leisure-time physical activity were evaluated using the Iranian Modifiable Activity Questionnaire (MAQ). All analyses were conducted in Stata (version 14); MI used the mi impute command. Results: The mean±SD of age, body mass index (BMI), and physical activity in childhood were 16.33±1.27, 23.27±4.63 and 13.77±16.07, respectively. Overall, 35% of boys and 34% of girls had high screen time (HST) in childhood. In general, the HRQoL scores in male participants were higher than in females in both the mental and physical domains. HST in males in childhood was associated with decreased mental health (β=-6.41, 95% CI: -11.52, -1.3 and P=0.014), social functioning (β=-5.9, 95% CI: -11.23, -0.57 and P=0.03) and mental component summary (MCS) (β=-2.86, 95% CI: -5.26, -0.45 and P=0.02). The odds of poor MCS were significantly higher in those with HST compared to their counterparts with low screen time (LST) after adjusting for all potential cofounders. Conclusion: The results of the present study showed the negative effect of screen time during adolescence on HRQoL in early youth. This effect was observed in men, mainly in the mental dimension. Investigating the long-term consequences of screen-time behaviors on self-assessed health in other populations with the aim of effective primary prevention is also suggested.

Published: March 2024

Background: In every nuclear medicine center, there are places where people are exposed to more radiation than in other areas. To reduce the radiation exposure of employees and patients referring to these centers, it is necessary to observe special precautions to reduce the amount of dose received by different people, especially in the case of women of reproductive age. This study aimed to educate patients and companions to reduce the harmful effects of ionizing radiation. Methods: In this study, a questionnaire was used as the measurement tool. It contained demographic information and questions related to the evaluation of the quality of education, the level of awareness of patients and their companions, and also their level of satisfaction with the educational facilities of the center. The sample size included 193 patients who had been referred to the Gamma Scan department of Farshchian hospital. The data collected were analyzed using SPSS 19 software. For validity and reliability, the obtained information was analyzed with the help of mean, frequency, and percentage for qualitative variables. Results: The results of this study showed no significant correlation between knowledge level and gender (P=0.178). However, there was a direct relationship between the two variables of knowledge and level of education which is statistically significant (P=0.001). Conclusion: Measurements and statistical studies showed that in the nuclear medicine department of Farshchian Heart Hospital in Hamedan, the level of awareness of patients regarding radiation protection is weak and needs to be improved.

Published: March 2024

Background: Organ transplantation is one of the options to increase the life expectancy and quality of life (QOL) of patients waiting on the organ transplant list. The lack of body parts for transplants remains a worldwide concern. This study was designed and implemented to assess organ donation intention among the staff of government and non-government offices in Qom based on the theory of planned behavior (TPB). Methods: Using stratified random sampling, this cross-sectional and analytical study was conducted on 440 employees in Qom, Iran, in 2022. The data collection instrument was a researcher-designed questionnaire, including demographic characteristics, possession of an organ donation card or blood donation history, and constructs of the TPB. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Pearson correlation coefficient, multiple regression analysis, and structural equation modeling. Results: The mean±standard deviation age of participants was 38.21±3.6. The results showed that 29.2% of participants (n=116) had a signed blood donation card, and 107 participants (27%) had a blood donation history. The structural model fits the data well [χ2 /df=2.84, P<0.001), CFI=0.916, GFI=0.902, RMSEA=0.053]. The TPB constructs could predict 75% of the variance of the behavioral intention (P<0.001). Finally, no statistically significant relationship was found between knowledge and intention to donate organs (β=0.003, P=0.93). Conclusion: The result of the regression analysis of the relationship between TPB variables and organ donation intention indicated that perceived behavioral control (PBC) had a great influence on the organ donation intention of government and non-government employees.

Background: Well-being is related to various social, psychological, and physical factors. This study investigated these factors and their relationship with the well-being of the elderly. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted based on the data of Ardakan Cohort Study on Aging (ACSA) in 2020, including 5190 people aged 50 and above. The World Health Organization (WHO)-5 questionnaire was used to measure wellbeing. Using a logistic regression model and adjusting the variables, the relationship between well-being and related factors was measured. Results: Among the participants, 2586 people (49.8%) were women. Well-being was good in 3014 people (58.2%). According to the findings, the poor well-being of the elderly has an inverse and significant relationship with medium to high economic status (OR=0.63, P˂0.001), physical activity (OR=0.99, P˂0.001), and social support (OR=0.90, P˂0.001). The elderly with high school education (OR=1.43, P=0.005) and extremely bad health status (OR=1.32, P=0.008) had poor well-being. Furthermore, the odds of depression (OR=1.21, P=0.035) and anxiety (OR=1.05, P˂0.001) were higher in the elderly who had poor well-being. The mental and physical quality of life were also higher in the group with good well-being (P<0.05). Conclusion: To promote the elderly’s well-being, they should be involved in regular physical activity, which should be planned to increase their quality of life (physical and mental) and improve their economic status as well as social support.

Published: March 2024

Background: Diabetes mellitus in indigenous people has increased globally. This disease develops very quickly and has a higher prevalence among indigenous people. When caring for diabetes, indigenous people face many obstacles that worsen their condition. However, only a few studies have comprehensively reviewed such a condition and investigated various tribal backgrounds of indigenous people. This study aimed to identify diverse challenges and opportunities in caring for diabetes in indigenous people. Methods: This scoping review was conducted from March to August 2022 by searching for manuscripts on PubMed, Science Direct, Cochrane Library, Wiley, Directory of Open Access Journals, ProQuest, GARUDA, and Grey Literature databases to identify challenges and opportunities in caring for diabetes mellitus in indigenous people. Three reviewers independently screened the results, and the extracted data were then mapped, categorized, and summarized. Results: This study identified eight categories of challenges and three opportunities. Trust, language, health literacy, access to health services, and costs are challenges for indigenous people in caring for diabetes. In addition, three aspects were considered opportunities to care for diabetes in indigenous people: support from health workers who are from the indigenous communities to solve trust issues, intervention modification based on culture, language, and technology, and support from health authorities. Conclusion: Challenges to the indigenous people’s religious and cultural factors should be addressed seriously to care for diabetes. However, this action requires different approaches and cannot be generalized to all indigenous communities.

Published: March 2024

In the process of digital transformation of enterprises, it is necessary to comprehensively consider its activities. The traditional technology for documenting activities is business process models, but they do not answer the question of how an employee performs the tasks assigned to him. In addition, for business process models there are no tools for checking completeness and consistency at the stage of their construction. The article proposes a new methodology for forming a model of enterprise activity, which is based on the abstraction of the mechanism of action. The technique provides two-way verification of the model both from subject matter experts and from ordinary field employees.

Authors:   Education Research Institute, Shin Seonyoung , Chae Jin-Young
Published: March 2024

The aim of this study was to examine how the MZ generation (born between 1980 and 2005) early childhood teachers perceive preschool directors' authentic leadership and how their perceptions influenced their organizational commitment and constructive voice behaviors. To this end, a survey was conducted on 242 MZ generation early childhood teachers currently employed in kindergartens and daycare centers across South Korea. Data analysis, performed using SPSS version 26.0, involved calculating frequencies, percentages, means, and standard deviations. Additionally, the PROCESS macro for SPSS version 3.5, specifically model 4, was utilized to confirm parallel mediation effects. Bootstrap analysis was employed to validate the statistical significance of the mediating effects. The findings of this study were as follows. First, the level of the director's authentic leadership recognized by MZ generation early childhood teachers, constructive voice behavior, and organizational commitment of MZ generation early childhood teachers were all reported as ranging from moderate to high. Second, parallel partial mediating effects were found through emotional and normative commitment in verifying the mediating effect of organizational commitment in the relationship between the director's authentic leadership recognized by MZ generation early childhood teachers and the constructive voice behavior of MZ generation early childhood teachers. These results suggest that the director's authentic leadership influences the constructive voice behavior of MZ generation early childhood teachers, and emotional and normative immersion can play a mediating role in this process to promote constructive voice behavior.

생성형 인공 지능의 도입 이후, 교사양성기관에서는 예비 교사들의 ChatGPT 활용에 대해 관심을 가져왔다. 본 연구에서는 수업 과제에서의 ChatGPT 활용에 대한 영어과 예비교사의 인식을 탐구하였다. 총 75명의 참여자를 대상으로 온라인 설문조사를 시행하였다. 연구 결과에 따르면, 절반 이상의 예비교사들은 ChatGPT 활용을 통해 글쓰기 시간을 절약하고 과제를 효율적으로 수행하는 데 유용한 도구로 인식하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 그들은 쓰기-전 단계에서 아이디어 생성과 정보 수집을 위해 ChatGPT를 가장 많이 활용하고 쓰기-후 단계에서 수정 및 점검을 위해 활용하였다. 그러나 예비교사들은 ChatGPT 에서 생성된 정보의 질, 출처, 신뢰성에 대해 우려를 제기하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, ChatGPT를 활용한 경험이 있는 참여자는 향후 지속적으로 활용을 하겠다는 응답이 유의미하게 높았다. 그러므로 교사양성기관에서는 ChatGPT 등 AI 프로그램을 사용하는 과제를 고안하여 예비교사에게 제시함으로써 다양한 학습 경험을 제공할 필요가 있다. 또한, 교육 프로그램에서 ChatGPT를 효율적으로 활용하기 위한 명확한 지침을 제시할 필요가 있다.

Research should focus on identifying variables that influence bank selection, such as convenience, service quality, bank reputation, and religion. These factors affect Islamic finance acceptance. This study uses descriptive methodology to examine variables related to the current situation. This study surveyed 300 Islamic banking clients in Bahawalpur area of Punjab, Pakistan. This study indicates that religious conviction has a positive and significant effect on Islamic banking acceptability. This study contributes to the understanding of the factors influencing Islamic banking acceptability. In addition to reputation, there is a positive correlation between acceptance of Islamic banking and other characteristics (e.g., quality of service, ease of use, family, and friend relationships). Based on the findings of this research, Islamic banks will be in a position to identify variables that influence customer selection criteria. Further, research funding and time are limited, making it difficult to conduct broader research. It is particularly interesting that this study focuses on a region of Bahawalpur in the southern Punjab region; while recent studies have looked at entire nations, this study focuses on a region of southern Punjab. We will be able to determine how different variables influence Islamic banking acceptance based on the results of this study. Additionally, we will be able to assess the adaptations Islamic banks will need to make. The purpose of this study is to assist organizations in improving their operations as a means of increasing client loyalty. As a result of this research, the industry will be in a position to develop and implement effective strategies to operate in the southern Punjab region.

Art, AI and Robotics: A New Pathway for Youth to Voice and Identity
Authors: Gaskins Nettrice R.
Published: March 2024

To address the critical lack of representation in computer science and STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics), we designed learning experiences for high school youth using culturally situated art and design principles structured to increase authentic engagement, particularly for underrepresented and underestimated youth. Referencing sociocultural practices from hip-hop, we invited students to engage with us in an iterative process of storytelling, creation, and fabrication. Through design cyphers, we centered student knowledge to define the why behind making robotic prototypes and address the benefits and dangers of artificial intelligence such as bias and stereotypes. By integrating cyphers into the design thinking process, we created spaces for students to communicate, collaborate, and create innovative solutions to prototype, iterate, remix, and advance to their final project. In collaborative peer reviews and gallery walks, the groups received constructive critiques at each step of the design process, from prototype to final project.

This study focuses on understanding the operations and the changes of Sunggyngwan(成均館) Wonjeom(圓點) policy and Siknyeonsi(式年試) Gwansi(館試) during the Reigns of King Yeongjo and King Jeongjo(1724-1800).
In king Yeongjo's reign, there were a few Saengwon(生員) and Jinsa(進士) that had filled the criteria of 300 points in Wonjeom in Sunggyngwan which were the standard of taking Gwansi, so the criteria was reduced temporarily and consistently for Gwansi’s conduct. Since enacting new rules about the operation of Sunggyngwan in king Yeongjo's 18th year(1742), the reduced criteria of Gwansi in Wonjeom was fixed 50 points which was the standard of taking the writing test in Sunggyngwan, a kind of Gwasi(課試). Through this rule, the center of mass of Wonjeom moved on Gwasi from Gwansi.
King Jeongo made new rules about the operation of Sunggyngwan Wonjeom in his reign’s 1st year(1777) which demanded Saengwon and Jinsa to fill Wonjeom more tightly for taking the writing test in Sunggyngwan than King Yeongjo’s. In the same year, he made Saengwon and Jinsa of Sunggyngwan who met the standard of Gwansi take the other test and consquently didn’t conduct Gwansi. Since then Gwansi had not be conducted. As a result Wonjeom was more connected with Gwasi than Gwansi.
During the Reigns of king Yeongjo and king Jeongjo, Wonjom became closer to Gwasi through these procedures.
