Teaching business leadership skills to professionals in healthcare cybersecurity, biodefense and biotechnology through experiential learning methods
Authors: Ninassi Carlo , Norman Burrell Darrell
Published: October 2023

The COVID-19 pandemic has not only reshaped the global economic landscape but also underscored the critical need for strategic leadership and management skills in organizations spanning diverse sectors. This paper delves into the compelling imperative of nurturing strategic leadership and management competencies among technical experts, with a particular focus on pivotal fields such as biodefense, healthcare cybersecurity, biotechnology, and healthcare operations management. It asserts that the post-COVID-19 era necessitates a profound shift in organizational priorities, urging a renewed commitment to fostering comprehensive leadership capabilities alongside technical proficiency within graduate and degree completion programs. To meet this imperative, the paper advocates for the adoption of innovative and student-centric pedagogical approaches. In today’s dynamic landscape, traditional methods fall short in preparing technical managers for the multifaceted challenges they face. Instead, the paper champions the utilization of experiential learning approaches, such as activity-based learning, problem-based learning, design thinking, and Learn-Teach-Do. These approaches go beyond theory, immersing students in collaborative, reflective, and integrative experiences that simulate real-world scenarios, thus equipping them with the leadership acumen needed to excel in technical healthcare roles.
Collegiate cheating: understanding the prevalence, causes, and consequences
Authors: Mahato Madhuri , Gaurav Kunal
Published: October 2023

This article summarizes the arguments and counterarguments regarding the issue of academic dishonesty. The study’s main aim is to understand and initiate discussions about the widespread but disturbing problem of attrition in higher education institutions around the world. A systematization of literary sources and approaches to understanding university attrition has shown that a deep-rooted interplay of cultural, cross-cultural and social values contributes to academic dishonesty. The relevance of this issue and decisions that are considered necessary in this direction is that it will help educational institutions think about the need to develop a policy of academic integrity and control over strict compliance with the norms of this policy. The work uses a dual methodological approach involving quantitative and qualitative research methods. Within the framework of the quantitative method, a survey of students was conducted, which included a sample of 503 respondents. The purpose of the structured study of students is to determine their general perception of academic integrity, as well as to assess the extent of their use of information technology and compare it with their individual level of academic integrity. The qualitative method involved conducting interviews (in person and by telephone) and 25 focus group discussions among educational administrators regarding the prevalence of academic dishonesty in the academic environment. The internal consistency of the method was checked using Cronbach’s alpha coefficient. The article empirically confirms the results, which indicate that the traditional learning environment, the level of affluence in the family, and technological dependence contributed to non-compliance with the principles of academic dishonesty and a decrease in the quality of educational services. The results showed that the presence of a family business can significantly affect a student’s thinking and form a low level of tolerance for academic dishonesty (F=1.54, p=0.02). With the rapid spread of digital technology, Generation Z students depend highly on technology to support their educational endeavours (F=1.35, p=0.04). The results of the study offer a better understanding of the consequences of deviant academic behavior, the justification for increasing the responsibility of the subjects of the educational process for non-compliance with the principles of academic integrity and the importance of the institutional policy of the educational institution in regulating this issue.
Changes and trends based on perceived lifestyles reflected in movies
Authors: Horváth Ádám , Gyenge Balázs
Published: October 2023

The impact of movies on society has been studied by researchers and film professionals for decades. However, less attention is focused specifically on changes and trends regarding perceived lifestyles reflected in movies. This paper aims to collect and examine the various trends that have emerged as a social impact of lifestyles through their portrayal in movies (and in some cases, television shows, that are becoming more and more prevalent form of entertainment). As Movies are universally accessible and popular media, they have the potential to influence the values, lifestyles and attitudes of consumers. The relevance and importance are further enhanced by the fact that through the cultural consumption they aid us in familiarizing, understanding and processing the social changes, new lifestyles and current problems. The logical structure of this paper follows the trends as major themes and their emergence in movies. The themes examined – mainly through the systemization and analysis of literary sources and approaches – were health awareness, addictions (tobacco products, alcohol and narcotic drugs in particular), environmental awareness and sustainability, privacy and relationships (through the representation of men and women in various lifecycle stages and the young adults’ perception of sex), and the geek subculture. The research scope of the paper focuses on the western movie releases of the past years, mainly of the United States of America, because they represent the greatest global influence and reach of the movie industry – with constant releases and popularity all over the world. The results of the paper showed that these aforementioned themes reflected in movies have the capacity impact individuals’ values, lifestyles and attitudes. Furthermore, the paper will be useful for any researcher who wishes to gain a deeper understanding of the non-advertisement based – as in not product placement, merchandising or other forms of advertisement in the immediate environment of movies – marketing content that has an impact through popular movies on society and consumer behavior.

The molecular genetic basis of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) was analyzed in a cohort of more than 4,000 Russian patients with hereditary diseases. 88 children in the examined cohort had genetic variants, probably pathogenic or pathogenic, in genes associated with the development of ASD. Whole genome sequencing revealed 114 different molecular events that could be the cause of their disease. 60% of molecular events are annotated as variants of unclear clinical significance. The greatest number of variants was found in the CHD8 gene. Pathogenic variants in this gene are considered one of the most common causes of ASD. A functional analysis is required to reclassify the identified variants. The refined data can be used in medical genetic counseling, predicting the course of the disease and developing an individual rehabilitation program

This study aims to examine the perception of farmers on climate variability and change and what aspects were most affected by climate variability and change as well as what adaptation strategies can be carried out by farmers. This study was conducted in July – September 2021 at the dairy farm of a livestock farmer group in the city of Salatiga, Central Java Province, Indonesia. A total of 286 farmers from a total of 11 groups were used as respondents in this study. Each group had 26 ± 10.94 dairy cows. Data were obtained through interviews and filling out questionnaires. Descriptive statistical analysis and Friedman’s test (K-related sample test) with SPSS version 25 were used to analyze the data. The percentage of farmers who believe in the phenomenon of climate change was higher than those who do not. In general, farmers know about climate change through personal observations. Most farmers feel that the temperature continues to increase every year, but during the rainy and dry seasons, there was no change. Based on the farmer’s perception, the biggest impacts caused by climatic conditions were the availability of forage and water and milk production. Adaptation strategies that can be carried out by farmers to overcome the availability of feed were making silage, using agricultural waste and the role of the government was needed to provide concentrated subsidies. Drilling wells and rainwater storage can be used as a strategy to overcome restrictions on water availability.

Haptotherapy is a well appreciated, but still not widespread, discipline in the field of cure and care for high-level athletes. Top-level athletes can and need to develop themselves as autonomous, self-confident and responsible persons in order to perform at their best without choking or burning out, also in the long term. Such an adequate personal development is not possible without emotional development. A major aspect in personal growth is a subtle sense of feeling and body awareness. In haptotherapy, athletes are confronted with their body and its emotional expressions.

Published: October 2023

A perceção social sobre os cuidados de saúde terem de se pautar por mais humanismo, serem mais holísticos e centrarem-se ainda mais na pessoa e na sua vontade, seja qual for a fase do ciclo de vida em que se encontre, tem vindo a despoletar mais debates acerca de várias questões, nomeadamente a qualidade dos cuidados prestados e autonomia da pessoa, situando-se nesta última o testamento vital. O objetivo passa por refletir sobre a tomada de decisão dos profissionais de saúde em contexto préhospitalar perante diretivas antecipadas de vontade em Testamento Vital. Trata-se de um artigo de reflexão com base na revisão da literatura específica e em evidências científicas. Face à escassez de evidências científicas sobre o Testamento Vital em contexto pré-hospitalar, considera-se ser necessário a realização de estudos que permitam verificar quais as motivações implícitas aos comportamentos dos profissionais de saúde, neste contexto, para que se possa, mediante os resultados a obter, promover uma prática profissional em pré-hospitalar em conformidade com o estabelecido pela lei vigente em Portugal. Persiste a necessidade de os profissionais de saúde do préhospitalar verificarem a existência do testamento vital e partilharem entre si essa informação.

A presente reflexão crítica consiste numa abordagem genérica aos conceitos de Terceiro Sector e Evolução das IPSS (Instituição particulares de Solidariedade Social) em Portugal. São mencionadas algumas fragilidades e de que forma a IPSS vai conseguindo ultrapassá-las através de boas práticas, por forma a dar seguimento à prestação de apoio na área da Infância com enfoque nos agregados familiares mais desfavorecidos. Todo este processo de gestão, vai de encontro a uma visão mais humana, em que se valorizam os colaboradores em benefício da visão da Instituição, e da sua estratégia, e não de escolhas individuais tendenciosas. Um dos objetivos deste processo de melhoria organizacional passa também por perceber as necessidades de formação e desenvolvimento, no sentido de clarificar quem necessita de formação, quais são as áreas, e quais as competências que necessitam de ser melhoradas em prol da saúde mental dos colaboradores. Os anos de 2020 e de 2021 foram extremamente penosos para as IPSS, que já eram um sector com bastantes dificuldades, e que a Pandemia só veio agudizar e mostrar a dura realidade de uma luta diária em prol da população mais vulnerável. No entanto, conseguiram mais uma vez demonstrar resiliência e ultrapassar os desafios, na prestação de apoio aos mais fragilizados.
Eco vulnerabilidade e mudanças ambientais: uma análise exploratória dos potenciais fatores de risco para a saúde mental dos idosos da comunidade
Authors: Nunes Vanessa , Reis Luz Helena , Brinca Joana
Published: October 2023

As alterações climáticas constituem uma preocupação crucial para atuais sociedades. O aquecimento global e o aumento das catástrofes naturais cruzam-se com uma multiplicidade de outras ameaças ao bem-estar e à saúde dos seres humanos, fomentando a designada eco vulnerabilidade. Estudos recentes indicam que a população idosa é das mais vulneráveis aos impactos das alterações climáticas, especialmente no que diz respeito à saúde física e mental (Ayalon et al., 2021; OMS, 2022; ONU, 2021). O estudo incidiu numa análise exploratória sobre os potenciais fatores passiveis de constituir um risco para a saúde mental dos idosos. Assente numa abordagem qualitativa, foi desenvolvido um estudo exploratório junto de 15 idosos da comunidade (sem apoio institucional), através de uma amostra criterial. Como técnica de recolha de dados o estudo privilegiou as entrevistas semiestruturadas, as quais foram sujeitas a análise de conteúdo (Bardin, 2016). Existe uma consciencialização geral das ameaças que as mudanças climáticas representam para os idosos. Certas variáveis sociodemográficas (e.g., idade, fragilidade física) são particularmente propensas a acrescer a vulnerabilidade dos idosos, impactando a sua saúde mental. A comunidade funciona como fator “amortecedor” da eco vulnerabilidade. É sabido que as pessoas idosas são mais vulneráveis do que a população em geral e também no que se reporta a ameaças climáticas. As mudanças climáticas futuras podem acrescer a magnitude destas ameaças agravando a vulnerabilidade das pessoas idosas, e em particular a sua saúde mental, pelo que aprofundar o conhecimento acerca destas matérias traduz um dado da maior oportunidade.

LEGAL STATUS AND PECULIARITIES OF TAXATION OF E-RESIDENTS IN UKRAINE
Authors:   Koretsky Institute of State and Law of NAS Ukraine,Ukraine, Protsenko Iryna
Published: October 2023

Even in times of war, Ukraine is introducing new, unconventional ways of doing business. The article will deal with one of them, namely doing business in Ukraine without the physical presence of the entrepreneur, i. e. by a socalled e-resident. The Ukrainian government expects to attract a wider range of foreign entrepreneurs in this way. First of all, foreign IT-specialists may act in this capacity. Certainly, such a way of doing business is best suited to such crisis stages in the stateâ€™s history as an armed conflict or a pandemic. The legal regulation of the status and peculiarities of taxation of e-residents appeared in Ukrainian legislation only at the end of 2022, so the practice of its application is small and certainly may cause some problems, for example in the area of double taxation. However, the results of the study of the specifics of legal regulation of these aspects in Ukraine may provide a basis for understanding new approaches that can be used for the international organisation of work of small entrepreneurs, who are the most affected by economic crises.

In two previous studies, we investigated the effect of T-Consciousness Fields (TCFs) on the response of GR-200 dosimeters, both on an individual basis (before and after exposure to T-Consciousness fields) and in populations of dosimeter samples (at various time intervals from one year before exposure to 21 days after exposure). These studies revealed a general decrease in the thermoluminescence response after exposure, which persisted as memory for at least 21 days after. In this study, in order to better understand the effectiveness of TCFs and their influence on the initial population, we examined the evidence by changing the samples of GR-200 dosimeters from older (less used) ones from the two previous studies to newer ones. The results suggest that the initial population difference under TCFs treatments does not significantly affect the overall response trend of the samples and is ultimately attributed to structural differences in the samples.

Introduction. Primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) is an angioplasty (with or without a stent) performed immediately on the infarct-related artery without prior administration of fibrinolytics. Although PPCI is the reperfusion therapy of choice in ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) patients, survival in post-PPCI patients still varied and research on its determinant factors still showed inconsistent results. This study aimed to determine the predictors of oneyear survival in patients undergoing PPCI at Dr Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital. Methods. This retrospective cohort study evaluated the medical records of patients who underwent PPCI at Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo General Hospital from January 2014 to December 2019. The data collected included clinical parameters and demographic data from the PPCI registry. Patients’ outcomes were cardiovascular mortality, determined based on medical records or by contacting patients or their families by phone. Survival curves were created using the Kaplan Meier method and significance using the log-rank test. Multivariate analysis was performed using the Cox Proportional Hazard model. Results. A total of 220 patients who underwent PPCI were included in this study. The mortality rate was 11.82% and the one-year survival post-PPCI was 88.2%, with a mean survival of 10.7 (10.2-11.2) months. The highest mortality rate occurred in the first month post of PPCI, then mortality trend decresed in the 2nd month to one year. In multivariate analysis, age >60 years [p<0.001; HR 4.25 (1.93-9.37)], high serum creatinine [P=0.031; HR 2.41 (1.08-5.33)], and Killip score III-IV [p<0.001; HR 4.06 (1.83-9.00)] were significant prognostic factors. Conclusion. The predictors of one years survival patients post of PPCI are age, serum creatinine level, and Killip score.

Two-dimensional semiconductor materials with intrinsic magnetism have great application prospects in realizing spintronic devices with low power consumption, small size and high efficiency. Some two-dimensional materials with special lattice structures, such as kagome lattice crystals, are favored by researchers because of their novel properties in magnetism and electronic properties. Recently, a new two-dimensional magnetic semiconductor material Nb3Cl8 monolayer with kagome lattice structure was successfully prepared, which provides a new platform for exploring two-dimensional magnetic semiconductor devices with kagome structure. In this work, we study the electronic structure and magnetic anisotropy of Nb3Cl8 monolayer. We also further construct its p-n junction diode and study its spin transport properties by using density functional theory combined with non-equilibrium Green's function method. The results show that the phonon spectrum of the Nb3Cl8 monolayer has no negative frequency, confirming its dynamic stability. The band gap of the spin-down state (1.157 eV) is significantly larger than that of the spin-up state (0.639 eV). The magnetic moment of the Nb3Cl8 monolayer is 0.997 μB, and its easy magnetization axis is in the plane and along the x axis direction based on its energy of magnetic anisotropy. Nb atoms make the main contribution to the magnetic anisotropy. When the strain is applied, the band gap of the spin-down states will decrease, while the band gap of the spin-up state is monotonously decreased from the negative (compress) to positive (tensile) strain. As the strain variable goes from -6% to 6%, the contribution of Nb atoms to the total magnetic moment gradually increases. Moreover, strain causes the easy magnetization axis of the Nb3Cl8 monolayer to flip vertically from in-plane to out-plane. The designed p-n junction diode nanodevice based on Nb3Cl8 monolayer exhibits an obvious rectification effect. In addition, the current in the spin-up state is larger than that in the spin-down state, exhibiting a spin-polarized transport behavior. Moreover, a negative differential resistance (NDR) phenomenon is also observed, which could be used in the NDR devices. These results demonstrate that the Nb3Cl8 monolayer material has great potential application in the next generation of high-performance spintronic devices, and further experimental verification and exploration of this material and related two-dimensional materials are needed.

In this paper, we discuss the influence of thin disk accretion and asymptotically safe (AS) gravity correction parameters on the shadow and photon ring of black hole. For the thin disk accretion, the dark region is the shadow of the black hole, and the bright photon ring is composed of direct image, lensing ring, and photon ring. For the specific intensity of the radiation source of the accretion disk, we consider three different emission profile models. For the second-order attenuation function model in which the emission starts from the innermost circular orbit, direct image, lensing ring, and photon ring can be clearly distinguished. The direct image contributes most of the brightness, and the lensing ring contributes a small portion, while the contribution of the photon ring can almost be ignored. And the observed corresponding intensity peak decreases with the increase of the AS gravity parameter, that is, the corresponding brightness of the photon ring darkens as correction parameter increases. For the third-order attenuation function model in which the emission begins at the radius of the photon sphere, lensing ring and photon ring are superimposed on the direct radiation. Thus a new extreme value of the observed intensity emerges, and the extreme value increases with the increase of the AS gravity parameter, which leads to a brighter observed photon ring. For the anti-trigonometric attenuation function model in which the radiation starts from the event horizon, the superposition range of lensing ring and photon ring on the direct radiation becomes larger, which makes photon ring wider. The smaller the AS gravity parameter, the more difficult it is to distinguish between the lensing ring and photon ring, and the brighter the photon ring turns. In short, the results show that the shadow radius decreases with the increase of the AS correction parameter. For different AS gravity correction parameters, the light intensities of emission source, especially emission profiles of the observed intensity are significantly different, resulting in obvious differences in observed emission intensity between the shadow of the black hole and the bright photon ring of the black hole.

The rapid development of information technology has put forward higher requirements for the performance of information processing and storage devices. At the same time, with the continuous reduction of device size, traditional semiconductor devices based on electron charge properties face the problems and challenges of thermal dissipation and quantum size effect, and semiconductor technology has entered the post-molar era. Unlike traditional charge-based electronic devices, spin-based non-volatile spintronic devices not only have high integrated density, read and write speed and read and write time, but also can effectively avoid heat dissipation, establishing a new technical platform for developing the information storage, processing and communication. In recent years, two-dimensional materials have attracted a lot of attention due to their unique band structures and rich physical properties. Two-dimensional magnetic materials have shown great research and application potential in the field of spintronics. Compared with traditional block materials, the two-dimensional materials can provide great opportunities for exploring novel physical effects and ultra-low-power devices due to their atomic thickness, ultra-clean interface and flexible stacking. At the same time, with the rise of topological materials (TMs), their topological protected band structures, diversified crystal structures and symmetries, strong spin-orbit coupling and adjustable electrical conductivity provide an ideal physical research platform for studying spintronics. In this paper, we first introduce the common methods of preparing two-dimensional materials, then focus on the research progress of two-dimensional magnetic materials in the field of spin-orbit electronics, and finally look forward to the research challenges in this field. In the future, with continuous in-depth research on the preparation, physical properties and device applications of two-dimensional magnetic materials, two-dimensional magnetic materials will show more extensive research prospects and application value in the field of spintronics. Two-dimensional magnetic materials will provide more material systems for spintronics development.

Animals must learn to ignore stimuli that are irrelevant to survival and attend to ones that enhance survival. When a stimulus regularly fails to be associated with an important consequence, subsequent excitatory learning about that stimulus can be delayed, which is a form of nonassociative conditioning called ‘latent inhibition’. Honey bees show latent inhibition toward an odor they have experienced without association with food reinforcement. Moreover, individual honey bees from the same colony differ in the degree to which they show latent inhibition, and these individual differences have a genetic basis. To investigate the mechanisms that underly individual differences in latent inhibition, we selected two honey bee lines for high and low latent inhibition, respectively. We crossed those lines and mapped a Quantitative Trait Locus for latent inhibition to a region of the genome that contains the tyramine receptor gene Amtyr1 [We use Amtyr1 to denote the gene and AmTYR1 the receptor throughout the text.]. We then show that disruption of Amtyr1 signaling either pharmacologically or through RNAi qualitatively changes the expression of latent inhibition but has little or slight effects on appetitive conditioning, and these results suggest that AmTYR1 modulates inhibitory processing in the CNS. Electrophysiological recordings from the brain during pharmacological blockade are consistent with a model that AmTYR1 indirectly regulates at inhibitory synapses in the CNS. Our results therefore identify a distinct Amtyr1-based modulatory pathway for this type of nonassociative learning, and we propose a model for how Amtyr1 acts as a gain control to modulate hebbian plasticity at defined synapses in the CNS. We have shown elsewhere how this modulation also underlies potentially adaptive intracolonial learning differences among individuals that benefit colony survival. Finally, our neural model suggests a mechanism for the broad pleiotropy this gene has on several different behaviors.
