Published: July 2024

In the specialized literature, physical effort is considered a request of the body above the rest level, a stimulus applied in order to adapt. Sporting physical effort determines the modification of homeostasis, stabilizing it in a certain period of time, at a higher level. In swimming, the effort capacity depends on the capacity to capture, transport and use oxygen. From an energetic and biochemical point of view, the swimmers' effort falls into the predominantly aerobic type. Directing the effort in the training session is the key to success in sports performance as well as the longevity of the individual in performance sport. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the methods used in training have the intended effectiveness.

Potential of Pandan anggur (Sararanga Sinuosa Hemsley) as immunomodulator
Authors: Lefaan Paula , Muediati Agnes , Fibri Dwi Larasatie Nur , Nurliyani
Published: July 2024

Background: Pandan Anggur plant is an endemic plant of the Papua archipelago in Indonesia, and the fruit called Pandan Anggur Fruit (PAF) is freshly consumed or prepared as a juice. Based on previous studies on the phytochemical content of PAF, the ethanol and water extract contain flavonoids, which act as immunomodulators, to regulate the response of immunity. 
Objectives: This study aimed to examine the potential of PAF as an immunomodulator in malnutrition cases, by evaluating six parameters which are phagocytosis capacity and nitric oxide (NO) production of peritoneal macrophage, spleen lymphocyte proliferation, IFN-γ  and IL-4 in lymphocyte culture, and intestinal sIgA levels. By proving the potential of PAF as an immunomodulator, this research will lead to significant development of functional food products of Pandan Anggur. 
Methods: A total of 35 Sprague Dawley rats were used as animal models divided into seven different groups named standard group (healthy standard), malnourished (negative control), malnourished rats given Imboost Force (positive control), as well as PAF ethanol extract doses of  I, II, III, and PAF water extract. The treatment lasted for seven weeks in total and the measurement of immunomodulator parameters was carried out at the end of the treatment period. The immunomodulator parameters included phagocytosis capacity and nitric oxide (NO) production of peritoneal macrophage, spleen lymphocyte proliferation, IFN-γ  and IL-4 in lymphocyte culture, and intestinal sIgA levels. 
Result: The results indicated that the administration of PAF ethanol extract at a dose of 3.15 mg/mL provided an optimum immunostimulant effect, by increasing the macrophage phagocytosis capacity, nitric oxide, lymphocyte proliferation, IL-4, and sIgA levels in rat intestine. However, increasing the dose of extract did not produce a better effect, but led to suppression of immunity. 
Conclusion: PAF extract at a dose of 3.15 mg/mL provides an immunostimulant effect.

Synergistic effect of partially hydrolyzed guar gum on Clostridium butyricum in a synbiotic combination for enhanced butyrate production during in-vitro fermentation
Authors: Matsumiya Yoshiki , Kapoor Mahendra P , Yamaguchi Akiko , Abe Aya , Sato Norio
Published: July 2024

Background: Clostridium butyricum is a butyrate-producing beneficial bacterium and is generally recognized as a significant indicator of appropriate gut microbial metabolism in human health.
Objective: The synergistic effects of commercially available prebiotic partially hydrolyzed guar gum (PHGG) dietary fiber as a carbon source on a butyrate-producing bacterial strain were evaluated during in-vitro fermentation with Clostridium butyricum bacterial strain in a basal medium. Additionally, their prebiotic activities were compared to those of other dietary fibers. 
Methods: The examined functional dietary fiber substrates (PHGG, LMW-PHGG, indigestible dextrin, and inulin) demonstrated selective prebiotic effects on pH variation of a basal medium, leading to enhanced bacterial growth and butyrate production with Clostridium butyricum bacterial strains during in-vitro fermentation. 
Results: Prebiotic PHGG supplementation had the highest fermentability among dietary fibers, resulting in greater bacterial growth (OD660: 1.93 ± 0.01) of the Clostridium butyricum strain and enhanced butyrate generation (4.52 ± 2.09 mM) after cultivation in a basal medium. A significant difference in promoting bacterial growth (p < 0.05), pH reduction (p < 0.05), and butyrate production (p < 0.05) compared to indigestible dextrin and inulin was observed. Mannose demonstrated the strongest butyrogenic effect and improved fermentability on the Clostridium butyricum, among the studied prebiotic monosaccharides (galactose, glucose, and starch). The order of bacterial growth and butyrate synthesis was mannose > galactose > glucose > starch. The PHGG with a relatively lower molecular weight (LMW-PHGG) exhibited the improved bacterial growth of Clostridium butyricum and demonstrated the highest butyrate production after cultivation in a basal medium. A similar trend was observed when Clostridium butyricum was cultivated in-vitro using PHGG-supplemented artificial intestinal fluid containing MRS-agar medium. 
Conclusion: These findings suggest that the symbiotic combination of prebiotic PHGG and probiotic Clostridium butyricum could have major industrial applications as a therapeutic adjuvant for improved gastrointestinal health.

Modern integration priorities for Ukraine necessitate defining and measuring its competitive power (CP) as an EU candidate country. One of the key objectives of competitive policy is identifying the factors that can enhance Ukraine’s CP, thereby strengthening its European integration potential. The study aims to develop a model that comprehensively examines the interdependence and interaction of parameters and components of Ukraine’s CP across global, regional, and national dimensions in the event of its potential accession to the EU. To achieve this goal, the study utilizes a special statistical indicator, Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient, as part of the regression-correlation analysis framework. The article provides an assessment of three main aspects: (1) Ukraine’s competitive potential in both global and regional economic systems; (2) dependencies within datasets representing ratings, as well as the variance in ranks of factor values (one of the components of the global CP index) and performance characteristics; (3) the reserve competitive advantages of Ukraine, which are evaluated by comparing actual and potentially possible values of the rank correlation coefficients of the components of the global CP index and its integral value. The calculation results indicate that Ukraine’s CP at the time of potential EU participation is low, primarily due to Ukraine lagging behind the EU members across a multitude of factors. This underscores the necessity for not only formal accession and legal unification but also a series of comprehensive reforms to attain tangible competitive advantages from participation in this integration association.
ECONOMIC GROWTH MODEL: THE ROLE OF DIGITALIZATION
Authors:   Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, Moskalyk Roman , Balashova Valeriya ,   Ivan Franko National University of Lviv
Published: July 2024

Most publications justify that digitalization is a source of economic growth, to a greater extent in the countries with higher levels of economic development. However, some papers fail to find empirical evidence supporting this claim, attributing it to digitalization being in its initial stages or to the presence of the digitalization paradox. Economic literature exhibits a degree of ambiguity in its conclusions regarding the role of the digital economy in growth. Researchers employ different measures of digitalization, country and year samples, control variables in regression equation, as well as different regression methods, which can provoke ambiguous effects on the parameters of digital variables. The purpose of the article is to identify the role of digitalization in economic growth by justifying an economic growth model with the digitalization index and providing detailed discussions on our sample of countries over recent years, along with options for regression estimators. The article utilizes statistical data from the World Bank, European Commission, and Heritage Foundation. Methods such as system analysis, statistical analysis, and the regression estimator of panel data with fixed effects are implemented to identify the role of digitalization in economic growth. We have designed an economic growth model incorporating the Digital Economy and Society Index (DESI) of EU member states for the years 2017-2022, utilizing available data. The results reveal a positive and significant causal effect of digitization on gross output growth. Specifically, a 1% increase in the digitalization index results in GDP growth of almost 0.2%. Moreover, we observe the important roles of capital, labor, trade, human capital, and intellectual property rights in driving growth, consistent with the theory of endogenous growth. Proving the importance of digitalization for economic growth can be an argument for policies aimed at promoting digitalization. We suggest further research on the role of digitalization at a more disaggregated level of industries. However, our study does not demonstrate a statistically significant effect of research activity and institutional quality on gross output. We have discussed possible reasons for this and propose further research in these areas.

The study aims to analyze the current challenges of human social security at the enterprise, which acquire new aspects and relevance in the conditions of war and post-war recovery. In the context of innovation and technological progress, this problem takes on a new meaning, requiring effective tools and systems to support citizens. In recent years, societal crises such as the coronavirus epidemic and Russia’s military aggression have transformed social security, increasingly emphasizing military protection and physical security of citizens. Traditionally, social security of a person determines the level of protection of citizens’ interests, rights, and freedoms, as well as the provision of psychological support. Special attention is paid to the formation of a dedicated system of social security at the enterprise, ensuring the protection of employees and their well-being. Under normal conditions, the social security system at enterprises is a stable working structure that is continually improved through the introduction of new tools and functions. Ensuring the social security of a person at the enterprise amidst geostrategic threats requires analysis and effective efforts to maintain peace and stability. The study analyzes and evaluates the factors influencing the level of social security among enterprise personnel, with a focus on the role of creativity as a new tool for shaping and transforming the human social security system. It is determined that creativity can be realized through the existing intellectual potential of the enterprise. The application of these transformation processes is especially relevant for relocated enterprises which have faced the challenges of wartime most acutely and can adequately assess the social needs of their staff. The outcome of the article is the provision of recommendations on establishing an effective system of social security of a person at the level of economic entities. These recommendations consider the incorporation of creativity and innovative approaches in crafting the social infrastructure of the enterprise to ensure its stable development and well-being.

Introdução: O cumprimento do Programa Nacional de Vacinação associa-se a ganhos em saúde pública. A atualização dos que trabalham na área da vacinação deve ser uma preocupação dos serviços de saúde. Objetivos: Avaliar o conhecimento sobre as falsas contraindicações à vacinação pediátrica e caracterizar práticas de aconselhamento, comparando os resultados em função da categoria profissional, da atividade clínica, dos anos de carreira e do local de trabalho. Métodos: Estudo quantitativo, transversal, descritivo e correlacional, aprovado por comissão de ética. Dados recolhidos em questionário online anónimo, validado, com questões relativas a contraindicações à vacinação expressas no Programa Nacional de Vacinação e outras variáveis sociodemográficas, como a categoria profissional: M (médicos), E (enfermeiros); atividade clínica: PA (prescreve/administra vacinas em idade pediátrica), NPA (não prescreve/não administra); anos de carreira: A1 (<20), A2 (≥20); local de trabalho: CSP (cuidados de saúde primários), H (hospital/clínica privada). Análise estatística em SPSSÒ, α=0,05. Resultados: Obtiveram-se 430 respostas (56% E, 59% PA, 74% A2, 63% CSP). Os E e o grupo A2 consideram mais frequentemente a doença aguda ligeira (p<0,001) ou antecedentes de doença para a qual a criança será vacinada (p=0,02; p=0,004, respetivamente) contraindicações à vacinação versus M e A1. A doença aguda ligeira e a convalescença de doença são consideradas contraindicações por 43% PA vs 62% NPA (p<0,001) e 57% PA vs 71% NPA (p=0,004), respetivamente. Nos CSP 58% desaconselha a vacinação em caso de doença aguda ligeira vs 38% H (p<0,001), assim como em caso de terapêutica antibiótica concomitante (60% CSP vs 36% H, p<0,001). No entanto, reconhecem mais frequentemente o intervalo a respeitar entre a administração de vacinas inativadas (72% CSP vs 61% H, p=0,018). Conclusão: Globalmente, os profissionais pertencentes a M, A1, PA e CSP mostraram-se mais conhecedores das verdadeiras contraindicações à vacinação. Os resultados demonstram a necessidade de formação nesta área.
The Algorithmic Philosophy — A Synthetic and Social Philosophy
Authors: Li Bin
Published: July 2024

This paper as the introduction part of the forthcoming namesake book introduces how the Algorithmic Thinking Theory, a theory of human minds, can be used to solve many philosophical puzzles and therefore form a “grand synthesis” or unification of existing various philosophies. Innate discrete thinking tools process information or data from the external world serially, selectively, repetitively, roundaboutly, and economically, leading to consequences such as “mental distortion”, knowledge solidification, and combinatorial explosion, thereby forming a dynamic, pluralistic, embracive, and expansive knowledge system where “Being” and “opinions”, ontology and epistemology, rationality and irrationality, and so on are all synthesized. Thoughtful entities exist, move, change, combine, interact, and multiply to make social phenomena as the “independent third party” between human and the world, which implies both the differences and compatibility between natural and social sciences. Democracy, freedom, market, institutions, and organizational power are explained logically consistently like never before. All major philosophical branches, schools, and scholars are included in this concise panorama that stems just from this formula: thinking = computation = (Instruction + information) × speed × time. This highly original approach was inspired by computer science and customized just for the making of principles of humanities and social sciences.

In its development, information technology brought about many changes and advances in the context of everyday life. One of the benefits of information technology to process large amounts of data is text mining. A movie is a spectacle that can be done at a relaxed time. Currently, there are many movies that can be watched via the internet or cinema. Movies that are watched on the internet are sometimes charged to watch so that potential viewers before watching a movie will read comments from users who have watched the movie. Film business and its individual reviews cannot be separated and film review sites such as IMDb is a credible source of reviews posted in public forums. Movie comments are many and varied on the IMDB website, we can see comments based on the movie title. This causes users to have difficulty analyzing other users' comments. So, this study aims to analyze the sentiment of opinions from several comments from IMDB website users and will be classified using the naïve bayes classifier method. Sentiment analysis is a classification process to understand the opinions, interactions, and emotions of a document or text. Naïve Bayes is suitable for solving multi-class prediction problems. If its assumption of the independence of features holds true, it can perform better than other models and requires much less training data. In addition to the Naïve Bayes Classifier, TF-IDF technique is also used to change the shape of the document into several words. The results obtained by applying the Naïve Bayes method are 87,2% accuracy, 92,4% recall, 80,9% precision, and 12,8% error rate.

Exposure to outdoor air pollutants, particularly respirable particulate matter (RPM), can cause adverse health outcomes. The cross-sectional study aimed to assess motorcycle taxi driver’s health risk from exposure to RPM. A total of 153 motorcycle taxi drivers were recruited in Bangkok and five adjacent provinces during May and June 2022. The standardized questionnaire for data collection contained exposure time (hour/day), frequency of exposure (days/years), duration of exposure (year), body weight (kg), and averaging time (days). The average RPM concentration from six provinces were assessed personal air sampling pumps and ranged from 0.006-0.031 mg/m3. Bangkok showed the highest average RPM concentration (0.031 mg/m3), followed by Pathumthani (0.028 mg/m3), Samut Prakan (0.009 mg/m3), Nakhon Pathom (0.008 mg/m3), Nonthaburi (0.007 mg/m3), and Samut Sakhon (0.006 mg/m3), respectively. The Hazard Quotient (HQ) values for a non-carcinogenic risk to human health caused by RPM exposure in each province indicated a negligible risk (HQ=0.005-0.028). HQ averages (HQ=0.013) from all provinces were also at an acceptable level (≤1). Not all motorcycle taxi drivers are safe from RPM exposure, although their exposure is within acceptable limits depending on their individual susceptibility. Therefore, this is the first report on quantifying exposure to RPM from personal air sampling and health risk assessment among motorcycle taxi drivers. These findings would be useful information for further preventing and controlling ambient air pollution including policies and strategies to mitigate the risks for motorcycle-taxi drivers and the other exposed populations.
