Authors: You Nan
Published: August 2024

As a community of multicultural and religions, the effective governance of ethnic and religious affairs is of great significance for maintaining the stability within the EU and promoting the harmony and cooperation among member states. The EU has strengthened ethnic and religious governance by promoting multicultural policies, implementing regional policies, establishing conflict prevention and mediation mechanisms, promoting cross-border cooperation and integration process, focusing on protecting the rights and freedom of citizens, establishing a legal and policy framework, and strengthening dialogue. However, under the rise of populism, the EU is severely challenged, including the intensification of immigration and refugee problems, the insufficient response to religious extremism and terrorist threats and the lack of coherence and consistency of policies, the lack of effective communication and dialogue mechanisms, and insufficient regulation.The article suggests vigilance the dangers of populism, strengthening the rule of law, focusing on education and publicity, preventing and responding to extremism, and promoting the integration of economic development and society. The EU has taken measures, such as promoting legal policy making, strengthening dialogue mechanisms and the governance of migrants, but it still needs to focus on social integration to maintain stability and solidarity. Other countries can learn from the EU experience and develop religious governance strategies adapted to their own situation.

Authors: Jiang XiaoYan , Xie Li , Wang ShaoQing
Published: August 2024

The concept of sleep procrastination is a newly introduced notion in the field of health behavior procrastination. It can be summarized as the behavior where individuals, without any external hindrances, still choose to delay their predetermined sleep time. With the rapid development of the socio-economic environment and the internet, people are increasingly going to bed later, making sleep procrastination more prevalent. However, psychological research on sleep procrastination in China remains significantly lacking. This study aims to investigate the current state of sleep procrastination behavior among college students  during vocational awareness internships and propose psychological intervention strategies. Through an electronic questionnaire survey of 641 students majoring in Infant Care Services and Management  from a vocational college in Weifang, Shandong Province, 541 valid responses were obtained after excluding invalid questionnaires. The results showed that the sleep procrastination behavior of the students was at a moderate to low level, with no significant impact from variables such as only-child status, gender, and place of origin. This study proposes intervention strategies for sleep procrastination behavior among college students through behavior intervention, psychological adjustment, and environmental optimization to improve sleep quality, overall quality of life, and  academic performance in vocational awareness .
Industrial Radiography Testing & Technique (NDT)
Authors:   Department of Chemistry IES UNIVERSITY BHOPAL, Research Fellow HARDEV
Published: August 2024

This paper provides the recent advances and researches about non-destructive testing paper covers the review on the capabilities of NDT applications such as Visual Testing (VT), Ultrasonic Testing (UT), Radiographic Testing (RT), Electromagnetic Testing (ET), Acoustic Emission (AE) and Dye Penetrate testing( DPT) with respect to advantages and disadvantages of these methods. Further methods are classified on basis of their intrinsic characteristics and their applications. Mostly, an NDT evaluator uses only one non-destructive test method to perform the evaluation. If the scope of work is straight forward, using a single test method is acceptable. However, there are times when a single test method does not provide enough information about the material integrity And thereby combination of different methods is essential. Non destructive testing is widely applied in power plants, aerospace, nuclear industry, military and defiance, storage tank inspection, pipe and tube inspection and composite defects characterization. This paper mainly focuses on the scope of NDT application for composite materials The use of Industrial Radiography for examining the quality of Weld joints is very popular worldwide. In India, many welding activities like construction and laying the huge pipelines for gas and water transportation and distribution as well construction of storage tanks are performed. The objects are working under high pressure and therefore, it is important to produce the weld beads with high quality. Industrial radiography uses ionizing radiation to view objects in a way that cannot be seen otherwise. The method has grown out of engineering, and is a major element of Non destructive testing (NDT) to inspect materials for hidden flaws. The radiation caused by these facilities is very dangerous however, with the use of new technologies and proper protection, risks of injury and death associated with radiation can be greatly reduced. Radiographic Testing (RT) is widely used in industries, at airport for security checks, medical applications etc. to detect anomalies in materials and human bodies. Radiographic Testing is the common NDT methods used in the construction and fabrication industries for the oil & gas sectors using welding, gas/liquid transmission pipelines, casting foundries, and condition monitoring in existing oil & gas refineries and facilities. This paper will discuss radiographic testing sensitivity using industrial X-ray films mainly on welds and castings. No in-depth discussion in related science and physics, merely the perspective of an industrial radiographer based on his experience.

Published: August 2024

This paper presents a case study on flood risk assessment using reliability as the analysis system’s framework. The objectives of this study are to describe a flood event condition through quantitative analysis of how a river acts as the reliable hydraulic resistance and serves as an improvement from past studies’ calculations to study flood resistances for rivers using sections’ factual shapes. The study refers to the Performance Indices Ten, Safety Factor (SF) or Level I, which uses the exceedance probability as the performance index, and First Order Second Moment (FOSM) or Level II, which uses the probability for failure as the performance index that assumes all probability densities to be convertible to Gaussian distributions. Study in Plumbon River is analyzed with two methods: (a) Analyzing the river as a whole single unit to produce a single quantification; (b) Analyzing the river as separated units based on stream locations (upstream & downstream) classified by its slope level, and scored based on its rank compared to the other units. The results show that: (a) Level I and II results in similar trend and particular defined numbers for reliability; (b) River classification analyzes each section better, showing slope level is directly proportional to reliability; and (c) Trapezium-shaped assumption is not suitable for river with complex morphology.

This invitro study assessed fluoride ion release and antibiofilm activity of Alkasite materials against two types of bacterial spp. (Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus plantarum). Three different ion-releasing materials (Cention N, Cention Forte and Fuji IX GP) were used to make four groups. A total of 96 disc-shaped samples were prepared in polyethene mould, 32 samples (n=8) were used for evaluating fluoride ion release the samples were placed in vial containing 5ml of deionized water, and the measurements were recorded in four periods (1,7,21 and 28) days by utilizing an ion-selective electrode (ISE). 64 samples were used to evaluate the anti-biofilm activity of the materials groups against (S. mutans and L.plantarum), by using crystal violet assay for quantitative biofilm assessment (n=5 of each group for each bacterial spp.) and by SEM for the qualitative evaluation (n=3 of each group for each bacterial spp). Fuji IX GP registered the highest amount of fluoride release on 1st day of the observation period than Cention N and No primer was added to Cention Forte. On the 28th day, Primer added Cention Forte recorded the highest mean value of fluoride release among all of the groups. Primer-added Cention Forte has significantly more biofilm accumulation of both (Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus plantarum) than Cention N and No primer-added Cention Forte. Fuji IX showed significantly higher Streptococcus mutans biofilm accumulation compared to Cention N. Alkasite restorative materials showed a low potential for biofilm accumulation regarding both Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus plantarum.

Can ChatGPT Understand Malapropism Correctly? Challenges to Davidson's Passing Theory in Generative AI
Authors: Yamanaka Tsukasa
Published: August 2024

This study examines ChatGPT's performance in understanding Japanese malapropisms, aiming to explore its capacity for linguistic inference compared to humans. Despite its remarkable fluency in conversation, ChatGPT shows significant limitations in comprehending malapropisms, particularly in handling phonetic, lexical, and contextual errors. Using a specialized dataset, the research highlights these gaps, suggesting that while ChatGPT excels in fluency, its understanding of nuanced language phenomena remains distinct from human comprehension. The findings contribute to the discourse on the potential and limitations of generative AI, advocating for a reevaluation of linguistic-philosophical theories in light of AI advancements.

Authors:   Animal Production Department, College of Agricultural, Al-Qasim Green University, Babil, Iraq, Adnan Ali Rwaida
Published: August 2024

Twenty four pregnant ewes averaged 45.75 ± 2.7 kg were used to evaluate impact of vitamin E plus selenium (Se) injection on productive characteristics and some physiological indicators of the ewes and their kids. Randomly, The ewes divided into 2 groups (12 ewes each). The control (first group) (G1) injected with 1.0 ml of saline solution to each head, while the treated ewes (second group) (G2) were injected intramuscularly with 1.0 ml/head viteselene. The ml of viteselene contained 150 mg vitamin E acetate and 1.67 mg saodium selenite. The ewes were injected with viteselene biweekly starting at four weeks late pregnancy and after parturition (lactation) for twelve weeks. The results indicate that lambs born from treated ewes (G2) proved higher (P<0.05) daily gain and body weight than those born from control ewes (G1). Blood Hb concentrations significantly raised for G2 compared with G1. Lambs born from treated ewes had significantly higher values (P<0.05 to P<0.01) of Red Blood Cells (RBCs), Hemoglobin (Hb), Packed Cell Volume (PCV) and Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH) concentration than those born from control ewes. The total count of leucocytes increased (P<0.05) for treated ewes, lymphocytes and eosinophils percentages increased (P<0.05) while neutrophils, basophils and monocytes were insignificantly changes compared with the control ewes. Lambs born from G2 showed insignificant increase in total count of leucocytes accompanied with an altitude (P<0.05) in lymphocytes and a decline (P<0.01) in neutrophils with insignificantly changes in eosinophils, basophils and monocytes percentages compared to lambs born from G1. In vitamin E plus Se-injected ewes and their lambs, there were significant (P<0.05 to P<0.01) high in total protein and globulin. Changes in Albumin, Total lipids and Glucose concentrations for treated ewes and their lambs were not significant, while plasma T3 and T4 levels were higher (P<0.05) in treated ewes (G2) compared with control ewes. Plasma level of T3 only was higher (P<0.05) in lambs that born from treated ewes (G2) than those born from control ewes (G1). Our results indicated that administration of vitamin E-Se to ewes at one month late pregnancy and after parturition (lactation) enhanced growth characteristics, immune responses and viability of their lambs as a consequence of favorable indicators in their physiological parameters
Leading with Humility: Servant Leadership on Knowledge Sharing Via Organizational Citizenship Behavior and Trust in Private Organization
Authors: Khan Abdul Hameed , Mansoor Rahimi , Ullah Subhan , Ullah Rovaid
Published: August 2024

The current research investigated the extent to which leaders can encourage knowledge sharing by carrying it out ethically. We hypothesize that servant leadership has the ability to encourage the sharing of knowledge, drawing on the principles of social learning theory. Furthermore, social learning theory demonstrates that organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) as a mediator and trust as a moderator can boost knowledge sharing among employees in private organizations. In the private organization’ KP, Pakistan, we collected data from 340 managers and employees in three phases. Furthermore, the analysis tool SPSS was used to evaluate the model and investigate the effects of mediation and moderation. The findings indicate that servant leadership has a positive association with knowledge sharing, and this relationship is strongly mediated by OCB. Moreover, trust positively moderates this relationship. Our research suggests that servant leaders can foster knowledge sharing via OCB and employee trust.

Published: August 2024

A medição da resistência de aterramento é o procedimento mais amplamente utilizado para se verificar a condição operacional e a qualidade funcional da malha em uma subestação. Contudo, a conexão do cabo para-raios com a malha faz com que parte da corrente de medição seja direcionada para fora da subestação. Este trabalho avalia o impacto desta conexão. As análises são baseadas em simulações computacionais e em medições de campo realizadas em uma subestação. Nas simulações, é avaliada a influência exercida por parâmetros que caracterizam a impedância externa à subestação, tais como a resistência do cabo para-raios, resistência de aterramento das torres e quantidade de linhas conectadas à malha. Os dados obtidos indicam que a conexão do cabo com a malha pode levar a erros significativos, se nenhum cuidado específico for tomado. Os resultados obtidos em campo indicam essa mesma condição, confirmando a necessidade de cuidados específicos quando a medição da resistência é realizada em uma subestação.

Published: August 2024

O câncer é uma patologia cuja principal característica é o crescimento desordenado, com início em uma única célula, com múltiplas alterações genéticas e epigenéticas. Infelizmente, o número de novos casos tende a aumentar, ano após ano, em decorrência de inúmeros agentes endógenos e exógenos da ultramodernidade. Entre os agentes endógenos, o aumento exacerbado do cortisol (hidrocortisona) merece atenção visto seu potencial de causar desregulação do ciclo celular e do sistema imunológico. Objetivo: avaliar o efeito carcinogênico da hidrocortisona por meio do teste de tumores epiteliais (ETT) em Drosophila melanogaster. Para isso, foram preparadas cinco concentrações de hidrocortisona: 125 µM, 250 µM, 500 µM, 1000 µM e 2000 µM, testadas isoladamente. O tratamento foi realizado a partir dos descendentes heterozigotos (wts/mwh) gerados do cruzamento de machos mwh/mwh com fêmeas wts/TM3. Ao analisar os resultados, observamos diferenças estatisticamente significativas nas frequências tumorais de todas as concentrações testadas de hidrocortisona e o controle negativo. Assim, conclui-se que a hidrocortisona apresentou potencial carcinogênico em todas as concentrações investigadas, em Drosophila melanogaster.

Published: August 2024

Este artigo trata da relação entre a qualidade espacial urbana observada em um bairro de uma cidade média brasileira e os saberes cidadãos dos moradores desse território. O campo estudado foi um bairro consolidado, situado na Zona Sul da cidade de Londrina, Paraná, Brasil. Formam o bairro nove loteamentos regulares, implantados entre 1968 e 2002. Inferimos a hipótese de que as deficiências constatadas na qualidade espacial do bairro estão relacionadas aos saberes cidadãos de seus moradores, sendo a urbanidade o fator de conexão entre esses dois construtos, com poder explicativo suficiente, embora não exaustivo, para estabelecer a relação. Para tanto, realizamos uma pesquisa de campo reunindo as informações decorrentes de uma vivência direta e diária no bairro, durante oito anos consecutivos, com os resultados da aplicação de dois questionários, um deles traduzido e adaptado da Place Standard Tool, uma ferramenta metodológica para avaliação de lugares, empregada com sucesso em cidades de vários países. Os resultados mostraram forte conexão entre os saberes cidadãos dos sujeitos da pesquisa e a qualidade espacial verificada no bairro. Concluímos que a urbanidade é o principal fator que explica a relação entre a qualidade espacial urbana do bairro e os saberes cidadãos de seus moradores.

Conclui-se que a integração efetiva da PI nos critérios de seleção é resultado da atribuição de importância estratégica à PI, condição essencial encontrada na maioria das grandes empresas pesquisadas, porém, que não se efetiva nas Startups, embora reconheçam a relevância da PI.
FDI, exports and labor productivity of Vietnamese enterprises with different levels of capital and labor-intensity
Authors: Dao Vu Phuong Linh , Nguyen Thi Le Hang , Nguyen Ngoc Tien
Published: August 2024

Purpose: This study aims to examine the differential impact of two channels of international technology transfer, namely foreign direct investment (FDI) and exports on the labor productivity of firms in Vietnam with varying levels of capital-intensity and labor-intensity. This study aims to provide empirical evidence for policies that enhance Vietnamese firms' labor productivity.  
Design/Methodology/Approach: This study uses panel data and employs a fixed effects model (FEM) and a random effects model (REM) to examine the impact of FDI and the exports on labor productivity of both large firms, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) using firm-level data from Vietnam in 2015 and 2016.
Findings: This study finds evidence that FDI has a positive impact on firm-level labor productivity while exports do not significantly affect labor productivity for labor-intensive industries (represented by the garment industry). Conversely, for capital intensive industries and firms operating in these industries (represented by the metal casting industry), FDI appears ineffective in improving labor productivity. Still, exports are an important factor influencing labor productivity for these firms.
Conclusion:  Firms operating in industries with different labor and capital intensity require different strategies to enhance labor productivity. Appropriate policies need to be implemented to achieve the desired outcomes depending on the characteristics of each firm.
Research Limitations and Implications: This study only focuses on studying the relationship between FDI, exports and labor productivity with different capital levels and labor-intensity not mentioning the business field of the enterprise.
Practical Implications: The new findings of the study make a great contribution to promulgating policies to attract FDI, promote exports and increase labor productivity at enterprises in Vietnam.
Contribution to the Literature: The relationship between FDI, exports and labor productivity with different levels of capital and labor-intensity according to different business fields of the enterprise was examined.

Authors: Kuzavko A. S. , Silchenkova S. V.
Published: August 2024

The article examines the problems of intra-industry trade in dairy products in the Russian-Belarusian transborder regions: integration processes between the two countries have created a stable demand for Belarusian dairy products in Russia that does not contribute to the development of their own production in Bryansk, Pskov and Smolensk regions. The aim of the paper is to determine current trends in intra-industry trade in dairy products in the Russian-Belarusian border region, and outline the prospects for its development in the regions under study. To achieve the goal, the authors use the methods of statistical analysis, Grubel-Lloyd index, statistical observation of dairy products in supermarkets. The authors identify a number of common problems in the dairy industry in Russian bordering regions, such as: low profitability of production, imperfect pricing and competition with suppliers in Belarus. The solution to these problems lies in supporting intra-industry trade between adjacent regions, as well as government support for domestic dairy producers which may contribute to the development of local economy. A promising direction for the development of intra-industry trade in dairy products for all studied regions is the production of new innovative types of products.

Objective: To identify the relationship between diagnosis and treatment directed to the causes of neonatal cholestasis. Methods: A search was carried out in February 2023, using the PubMed database, using the following syntax: cholestasis AND neonatal AND causes NOT (Review OR qualitative studies OR theoretical study). Results: From the search carried out, 59 articles were found, of which 52 were excluded by consensus of the authors. The reasons for this fact were: because they did not address cholestasis as the main object (X=40), because they were eminently theoretical articles (X=8) and because they did not present data regarding the causes of the variables that were the object of this study (X=4). After the methodological procedures described, the 07 articles were assiduously read and only 04 articles were selected for systematic review. Conclusion: Through the analysis of the data presented, the importance of early diagnosis of NC and identification of its etiology is shown, as some causes lead to the death of patients if not treated early.

Published: August 2024

From infancy, we absorb influences from our caregivers and environment that shape us. As we grow up, these stimuli shape our future decisions, from financial matters to our political participation. Early understanding of the consequences of our actions makes us more conscientious citizens. It is essential to educate children in moral values and in their ability to be agents of change in society. The "Child President" model proposes to teach children from a young age about their rights and responsibilities, enabling them to address real problems with creativity and leadership

An ideal leader is able to have a positive impact on performance. Teachers, as part of the educational staff, play a very important role in the formation of human resources in the world of education. The quality of school education is greatly influenced by the competence of teachers in carrying out their duties. Improving the quality of teachers is very important because of the weaknesses in the teacher's soul itself. Teacher performance is the result of implementing a plan that has been prepared based on the teacher's skills, experience, sincerity, competence, motivation, and responsibility in achieving goals. This includes the tasks of educating, teaching, guiding, directing, training, and evaluating students to achieve the quality and quality of learning. The focus of this literature review is on the role of principal leadership in improving teacher performance in schools, based on published articles.

Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) causes acute eye injuries such as photokeratitis with accompanying symptoms such as ocular pain, tearing, and a sensation of sand in the eye. This research aimed to assess the impact of ultraviolet radiation on ocular tissues due to the use of various welding machines in some welding workshops within Ogbomoso. This research is crucial for understanding and mitigating the ocular risks of UV radiation exposure in welding, enhancing occupational safety and guiding protective equipment standards. Fifteen male albino rats were grouped into cages A, B and C of five rats each. Group A served as the control group, Group B was exposed to UVR from imported welding machine while Group C was exposed to UVR from locally constructed welding machine for 4 hours at 25 cm distance for 7 days consecutively. The rats were sacrificed by cervical dislocation and their eyes fixed in 10% formalin for histological examination of ocular tissues: sclera, uvea, cornea retina, lens and conjunctiva. The histological examination of ocular tissues from albino rats in Groups B and C showed significant damage, including the fragmentation of eye tissues, indicating severe cellular disruption. Hemorrhaging of blood vessels was observed, with blood leaking into surrounding tissues, suggesting trauma and potential vision impairment. The presence of edema indicated swelling due to fluid accumulation, which can increase eye pressure and damage delicate structures. Additionally, the retina showed irregular thickening, a sign of chronic inflammation or stress, potentially disrupting normal vision. These implies that activities of locally and imported welding machines may pose radiological damage to the eyes of welders and cause severe damage to the tissue of the eyes. By specifically targeting ocular health, the research addresses a critical but often overlooked aspect of occupational safety, with findings that highlight the need for improved protective measures for welders. Hence, workplace safety and the use of personal protective equipment such as welding helmet, goggles and face shields should be enforced to minimize UV radiation exposure
