business transformation
Authors: Lyeonov Serhiy , Semko Оlexander
Published: March 2024

In the article, the authors revealed the problem of information risk management
when implementing digital technologies in business and its relevance. Today creates new
challenges for businesses: gathering and storing large volumes of information,
transaction history and customer base, all of which can be subject to both cyber threats
and technical failures, which can lead to serious financial and reputational losses.
Modern information technologies allow businesses to instantly respond to market changes
and automate business processes. That is why information technologies are responsible
for solving the issue of management effectiveness, in particular, management of
information risks in business (detection, analysis, assessment of risks based on
available data). The authors proposed the structure of information technology for
information risk management of digital transformation projects in business. This
structure is built on the basis of the method of anti-risk management of digital
transformation projects in business and creates opportunities for the most effective
implementation of project activities. The article also proposes an algorithm for filling
the information database of information risk management with a description of the
relevant processes. The proposed algorithm allows you to manage information risks,
reducing the likelihood of threatening situations, time and costs for project
implementation. Information technology is one of the effective tools in the process of
solving the problems of information risk management during the implementation of digital
transformation projects in business. The work presents schemes of the structure of the
information base and the algorithm for filling the information database of information
risk management of digital transformation projects in business.

Authors: Tao Li
Published: March 2024

У статті представлено VR-BPMN – нову концепцію для візуалізації, навігації,
взаємодії та анотування моделей бізнес-процесів і нотацій (BPMN) у середовищі VR.
Пропонований додаток досліджує ефективність VR-BPMN на противагу традиційних
представлень BPMN, зосереджуючись на таких аспектах, як зрозумілість, навігація та
захоплююча взаємодія. Дослідження заглиблюється в галузі візуалізації процесів і
віртуалізації у VR-BPMN, посилаючись на попередні зусилля в цих галузях, включаючи
3D-представлення та динамічні візуалізації. Також розглянуто роль VR у спільному
моделюванні бізнес-процесів і потенційні переваги включення VR у споживчі та
бізнес-додатки. Крім того, дослідження вивчає освітні наслідки, припускаючи, що
захоплюючі можливості VR можуть значно покращити навчальний досвід у таких складних
предметах, як управління бізнес-процесами. Методологія дослідження містить порівняльний
аналіз з використанням традиційних паперових BPMN та інструментів моделювання на базі ПК
із залученням студентів магістратури комп’ютерних наук для оцінювання взаємодії та
розуміння процесу. Отримані результати свідчать, що хоча VR-BPMN настільки ж ефективний,
як і традиційні інструменти, він пропонує потенційні покращення ефективності. Однак
відзначаються такі проблеми, як хвороба VR, читабельність тексту та чіткість моделі. У
документі зроблено висновок, що VR-BPMN, який підтримується таким апаратним
забезпеченням VR, як HTC Vive, підтверджує доцільність VR у моделюванні бізнес-процесів,
пропонуючи подальші дослідження і розробки в цій галузі.
Systematic Review on Effective Psychotherapies And/or Combined Treatments With Patients With Severe and Comorbidity
Authors: Scherb Elena
Published: March 2024

In the last decade, many authors have admitted that we are witnessing a change of paradigm in the way we understand evidence-based psychotherapy practice at its core. This new approach is far more idiographic, based on change processes, and a more dimensional understanding of psychopathology and human suffering. The need for changing paradigms becomes more apparent when facing patients with psychopathological symptoms that imply severity and comorbidity. The generic indication to treat these patients is combined treatment, medication, and psychotherapy. This systematic bibliographical review aims to collect scientific articles on effective psychotherapies and/or combined treatments with patients with severity and comorbidity to assess the state of the art. A secondary aim is to highlight the differences in the number of scientific publications in Latin American databases versus American and European ones. For this purpose, the author applied PRISMA declaration principles and the PICOS criterion. In the first search, the author selected 95 (N=95) articles, of which 90% of the analysis units came from databases in Europe and the United States. Then, the author conducted three other searches, which selected 53 articles (N= 53), excluding the findings of European and USA databases because they yielded results that were too extensive. Tables I, II, and III summarize the findings.

Authors: Ngwakwe Collins C.
Published: March 2024

Mortgages loans are vital for the acquisition of housing property and mortgage lending rates play an important role in mortgage market trends, borrowers, and lenders’ decisions. Objective: the aim of this paper is to evaluate the combined effect of current and previous mortgage rates on mortgage refinancing. Prior work: the paper inclines on the ontology of a single reality of the interaction between mortgage rates and mortgage refinancing with attendant epistemology that their interaction is measurable. Method:  the paper adopts the positivist paradigm and a quantitative technique. It used data on the U.S. Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) retrieved from the economic and financial database of Fusion Media. Data were analysed using the OLS technique. Novel Findings show that current-actual and previous mortgage rates have a significant positive effect on mortgage refinancing at p=0.05 and p=0.04  respectively. Significance: the findings have implication for mortgage lending and refinancing decisions for mortgage bankers (lenders), mortgage borrowers and policy makers. It also provides current academic study material for university business schools and for future researchers to apply the model used in this research for related expanded research. Value: The paper contributes a new model with two genres of mortgage rate (current mortgage rate and previous mortgage rate) and how these two types of mortgage rates  influence mortgage refinancing.
Demographic and Sociocultural Determinants of Financial Literacy in South Africa
Authors: Preez Michael du , Ferreira-Schenk SJ
Published: March 2024

Financial literacy is rapidly becoming more important as financial markets continue to evolve and new and more complex financial products are introduced. This study investigates the relationship between demographic and sociocultural variables and the level of financial literacy of individual investors in South Africa. This study is significant as it provides policymakers with target areas to provide incentives towards financial education programmes. Secondary data were obtained from a private domain where a private investment company collected primary data using an electronic quantitative survey. The sample consisted of 1, 059 individual investors. The study found that people over 50 years of age, men, whites, people with common-law spouses, and people who owned homes without a mortgage payment reported the highest degree of financial and investment knowledge. Groups that reported a low degree of financial and investment knowledge were individuals between the ages of 35 and 49, females, coloureds, divorced individuals, and individuals living with relatives. Health status and education were positively correlated with the financial and investment knowledge of individual investors. Policymakers should aim to target the groups identified by the study that show a low degree of financial literacy with financial education to promote wealth creation, which could benefit the economy by promoting investment and economic participation while simultaneously trying to address structural issues such as poverty and inequality.
Tourism, Financial Development and Sectoral Development in ECOWAS Countries: Empirical Evidence from the CS-ARDL Approach
Authors: Séraphin Prao Yao , Cyrille Kongoza Kouassi
Published: March 2024

This study examines the role of financial development in the relationship between tourism and sectoral development in 12 ECOWAS countries over the period 2003-2020. Methodologically, it mobilized the Cross-sectional Augmented Autoregressive Distributed Lag (CS-ARDL) model developed by Chudik and Pesaran (2015), which takes cross-sectional dependence and heterogeneity into account. The results reveal that tourism hurts the development of the agricultural and industrial sectors in both the short and long term. Financial development harms the agricultural sector, while it improves the development of the industrial sector in both the short and long term. On the other hand, tourism associated with a developed financial sector improves the development of the agricultural sector and also the industrial sector. This result suggests that the contribution of tourism to sectoral development in ECOWAS countries depends on the level of financial development.

Coriolanus: The Unheimliche Doppelgänger, The Uncanny and The Double
Authors: Bayram Aslı
Published: March 2024

This paper attempts at a reading of Coriolanus, one of the four Roman plays by Shakespeare, within a theoretical framework drawn upon Freudian psychoanalysis, focused on the concept of unheimliche doppelganger. This reading mainly reflects on the protagonist Coriolanus, the relationship he has with the rest of the gentry, pleabians, his family and his opponent causing the tragic downfall of this great warrior, what triggered it and his personal reaction to it. This study discusses how Coriolanus’ self-perception as a noble, proud soldier within his world bears uncanny elements when he is presented ‘a new world’ –being a consul. The fact that he identifies himself with his rival Aufidius the Volscian soldier as his mirrored self-image creates a double uncanniness. By drawing on both classical and contemporary perspectives, the argument which is put forward is elaborated on with the insight into self-dividedness, projection and reflection of one’s self; the double self as both the source and the product of the unfamiliar in the familiar.
IoT Empowered Harvest: Advancing NFT Hydroponics with Smart Agricultural Automation
Authors: Ghate Trupti , Malpe Kalpana
Published: March 2024

For every nation, farmers play the most essential role and that is to feed the population. In the urban areas there is lack of open green space for farming and even if the land is available it is infertile for plants to grow on them. Problems faced in urban areas farms are due to the toxic elements let in the soil. The sources of toxic metals and effluents in urban soils are mainly from emissions from industries, automobiles, industrial as well as domestic sewage. In urban areas, people are busy in their work which leads them to buy pesticide and chemically treated food which in injurious to health and they are unable to grow organic vegetable at home due to deficit of space, time and un-fertile soil.

Hydroponics is the method of cultivating plants without soil. Water with oxygen and required minerals acts as the cultivation medthod. Smart Hydroponic Farming using the NFT Method helps the farmer to stay connected to their farm anytime and anywhere. This hydroponic system requires special attention to several parameters such as the water temperature, water level, acidity (pH), and the concentration of the nutrient (EC/PPM). We first monitor and collect information from NFT Hydroponic farmer and then systematically evaluate and analyze them. Unfortunately, it is still controlled by using the conventional way (human), for example in controlling the concentrations of nutrient has to be done at least once a day, so much time is wasted. In addressing these issues, we need a system that can be applied and used easily.

We built a hydroponic monitoring and automation system that can monitored using sensors connected to the Arduino Uno microcontrollerm, Wi-Fi module ESP8266 and Raspberry Pi 2 Model B microcomputers as the webserver with the concept Internet of Things, in which each block hydroponic farming can communicate with the webserver (broker). Web used as the interface of the system that allows user to monitor and control the NFT hydroponic farming. The NFT hydroponic web interface management systems using a responsive web framework, such as Bootstrap for the front-end, JQuery and JavaScript libraries. The result shows that this system helps farmers to increase the effectivity and efficiency on monitoring and controlling NFT Hydroponic Farm.

The indiscriminate use of insecticide in agricultural soils causes significant soil and water pollution and poses a serious threat to the global community. Degradation of these pollutants is therefore vital in pollution control. Microbial fuel cells have been employed in bio-remediation of organic pollutants due to its environmental friendliness and low cost. The occurrence of pesticides in soil has become a highly significant environmental problem, which has been increased by the vast use of pesticides worldwide and the absence of remediation technologies that have been tested at full-scale.

In this study, bioremediation experiments were conducted at ambient temperature of 28-32 0C and pH 5.6-8.9 to investigate the effectiveness of the process in the clean-up of pesticide contaminated loam soils. The loam soil was assessed for macro and micro properties prior to the experiments in control procedures. A H-shaped double chamber microbial fuel cell was fabricated where the anodic chamber was loaded with 750 mL loam soil inoculated with 750 mL bio-slurry doped with 10 mL of 10 ppm lambda cyhalothrin, chlorpyrifos and malathion pesticide solutions. The cathodic chamber was loaded with 1500 mL distilled water. The setup was incubated for a 90 days’ retention time where voltage and current were recorded daily using a multi-meter. The degradation level was assessed using a GC-MS after sample extraction using standard QuEChERs method.

The voltage generated from the pesticide doped loam soil showed an upward trend from day 0 to day 15 in lambda cyhalothrin and malathion and from day 0 to day 20 in chlorpyrifos and pesticide mixture after which constant readings were observed for three days with downward trends thereafter. The maximum generated voltage was 0.537 V, 0.571 V, 0.572 V and 0.509 V in chlorpyrifos, lambda cyhalothrin, malathion and pesticide mix (MCL) respectively. The bioremediation levels for chlorpyrifos and malathion were 65.80 % and 71.32 %, respectively while no detectable, lambda cyhalothrin was observed after day 60 of the study. This study concludes that bioremediation of lambda cyhalothrin, chlorpyrifos and malathion in Limuru loam soil can be achieved using microbial fuel cells.

Published: March 2024

Calomys is a rodent genus widely distributed in South America comprising 13 species, the most of species associated with savannas and grasslands in Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, and Chile. Among Calomys species, two Brazilian endemic species have small distributions, C. cerqueirai and C. tocantinsi, this latter known only for seven localities. Here we extend the distribution of C. tocantinsi in 400km to the north, up to Canaã dos Carajás, in the Brazilian state of Pará. Our data suggest that this species is not endemic to the Cerrado and transition areas, but also occurs in the Amazon domain.

Authors: Lombardi e Silva Michelle , Rezende Mayara de Azeredo
Published: March 2024

A aromaterapia é considerada uma prática integrativa que se utiliza das propriedades terapêuticas dos óleos essenciais, que por sua vez, são definidos como produtos voláteis oriundos da diversidade vegetal. No entanto, apesar de ser uma terapia complementar, ainda não é reconhecida no Brasil. Neste sentido, o objetivo desta pesquisa é apresentar os caminhos e desafios da aromaterapia no cenário brasileiro. Para isso, este trabalho realizou uma revisão narrativa, na qual foram pesquisados artigos científicos e normas específicas sobre o tema. Este estudo revelou que a aromaterapia não é uma prática regulamentada, apesar de estar inserida no SUS como uma prática integrativa e complementar. Além disso, os óleos essenciais com fins terapêuticos utilizados nesta prática, não apresentam regulamentação específica, resultando em uma utilização sem garantia da eficácia, segurança e qualidade necessárias ao fim que se destinam. Para a mudança deste cenário, faz-se necessário o fortalecimento desta prática através de sua difusão e popularização, papel este exercido ainda por poucas instituições e associações oficialmente constituídas. Desta forma, essa pesquisa contribui para difusão do conhecimento e o fortalecimento desta área, a partir dos achados e de sua importante contribuição para área da saúde.

Провідне місце серед галузей промислового сектору народного господарства посідає переробна промисловість, що посилює зацікавленість до вивчення її сучасного стану. Проведене авторами дослідження дозволяє стверджувати, що переробна промисловість України є досить перспективною галуззю. Однак зауважується, що нестабільність міжнародного ринку у наш час та невдала вітчизняна політика розвитку галузі у минулих роках призвели до значного занепаду переробної промисловості. Повномасштабна війна в Україні призводить як до величезних людських втрат, так і до матеріальних і фінансових втрат бізнесу. Зазначається, що українським підприємствам необхідно переорієнтовуватися на високотехнологічне виробництво, що дозволить виготовляти та збувати кінцеву продукцію з більшою доданою вартістю. Ураховуючи тяжкість сучасних умов господарювання, українським переробним підприємства варто вести свою діяльність через призму таких принципів як мобільність, гнучкість управління та інноваційність у всьому.

The current research aims to identify: - (the use of the strategy of direct and independent education and their impact on the achievement of the intermediate stage of the Arabic language subject) and to achieve the goal of the research, the following zero hypothesis was formulated: -

     1- There is no statistically significant difference at the level of significance (0.05) between the mean scores of (the experimental group that is taught using the strategy of independent and direct education) 0 and the average scores of the control group that is taught using the traditional method in the Arabic language achievement test 0

- In order to achieve the goal of the current research, a sample of (90) students was approved for a community of (300) students, from the second grade students in the schools affiliated to the General Directorate of Education.

- After achieving the achievement test experience, the results were processed statistically, as in the research tool represented by the pre and post tests, as the validity of the tool was confirmed after it was presented to a group of experts, and the stability coefficients of the tool were found by applying the Cowder-Richardson equation 0

- The results of the statistical analysis in the achievement test related to the basic zero chance showed that (there is a statistically significant difference in the achievement test at the level of (0.5) for students’ achievement in favor of the strategy of direct and independent education), and thus the null hypothesis is rejected and the alternative hypothesis is accepted.

- The statistical results showed that there is a statistically significant difference that tends in favor of the independent education strategy, and then the direct education strategy, compared with the regular education method, and thus the null hypothesis is rejected and the alternative hypothesis is accepted.

Abstract

Background:  There is opportunity for Universities to actively engage with Aboriginal communities to participate, conduct, and ideally lead, responsible research that attends to community priorities and issues. The Health from the Grassroots (Grassroots) project seeks to address an ongoing mismatch between university-defined priorities and community-defined priorities in rural [***]. Grassroots, led by Aboriginal staff of the [***], is a community engagement project aimed at engaging Aboriginal communities in conversations to inform research priorities. This paper describes the project vision, implementation, and lessons learned in the first years.

 

Approach: The Grassroots project was a true representation of collaborative research led by and for Aboriginal people.   We designed and conducted a local survey and yarning sessions with community members and used this information to design a “rich picture” to report findings and engage in further conversation with communities about evolving health and research priorities.

We identified strengths and challenges faced by communities and health services in the region. The Aboriginal research team centred community in decision-making for project design and direction.

Lessons Learned: Challenges encountered included limited resources and devoted time for the research team as this project occurred alongside staffs’ substantive positions. Community members were highly engaged in the consultation process and the rich picture continues to be used to further conversations about research action.

Conclusions: Deep-rooted relationships and identities as members of the Community in which we live, and work enabled meaningful consultation to inform research action. Research priorities identified through the Grassroots project have been integrated into the ongoing work of the [***].

Finding Your Way is a shared decision making (SDM) resource created with and for Aboriginal people in 2021. It is the only culturally adapted SDM resource for Aboriginal people in Australia and one of few examples developed with First Nations people internationally. A two-round modified e-Delphi approach, incorporating yarning methods, was used to gather expert opinions and reach a consensus on the capabilities (knowledge and skills) required to effectively use Finding Your Way and engage in SDM with Aboriginal people. 29 predefined capabilities were gleaned from the research evidence and yarning sessions to form the basis of the e-Delphi. 138 panel members completed round one of the e-Delphi between 19/01/2023 and 27/01/2023, and 113 completed round two between 09/02/2023 and 20/02/2023. There was 82% panel member retention rate across the two-e Delphi rounds and the consensus threshold was 75% strongly agree. Consensus was reached for ten capabilities, and a learning map was developed to reflect Aboriginal valuing, being, knowing and doing as represented in the Aboriginal 8 Ways of Learning pedagogy. Cultural imagery was used to create the learning map representing key knowledge and skills required ton use Finding Your Way, presenting this information in a symbolic and non-linear way.

This research studies the statement about the splitting of the Moon into two as narrated by Quran & Hadith in accordance to scientific studies related to the subject. The author suggests that current scientific findings of the formation of the equatorial ridge on Iapetus differs from the Islamic classical scholars’ opinions are not in tandem regarding the splitting and fusing of the moon. This research also applies the methodology of hadith from the writings given from various narrations and hadith literature. The application of document analysis methodology is applied to current concepts by the geologists and astrophysicists on the formation of the equatorial ridge of Iapetus and the ice ridge in Antarctica. The findings establishes that the Iapetus equatorial ridge is a genuine existence that occurred, which split into two and fused back. This image was captured by the satellite sent to Saturn.

The purpose of the study to evaluate the periodontal status oral hygiene and gingival health) ni pregnant women and compare it with single females ni Mosul city. A total sample of (666) females (399 pregnant women and 267 single females) selected randomly, their age range was (18-39) years. The assessment of gingival health condition and oral hygiene was performed using gingival index by (Löe and Silness), plaque index by (Silness and Löe) and calculus index by (Bjorby and Löe). The study showed that there were high significant differences in mean of gingival, plaque and calculus indices between the pregnant and single females, except for the age group (18-24) years for calculus index. The results of study revealed no significant difference between age groups of pregnant women and for single females. Also the study demonstrated no significant difference between age groups of single females ni the mean plaque index, while there is an increase ni mean plaque score with the age for pregnant women. The study indicated that there was a significant increase ni mean calculus index with the age significantly, while the mean ni single females increase slightly with the age, and only the younger age group (18-24) years reported a lower significant mean than the older age groups (30-34 and 35-39) years.

This study aimed to assess the caries-preventive potential of various CW CO. laser parameters, and ot explore hte effect of the laser power density and the exposure time oneht caries inhibition activity. Roots foextracted human premolar teetn were irradiated with three various power densities (31.83, 63.59, and 127.32) W/cm'. The CO, laser system emitted laser with 10.64m in wavelength. Al roots were subjected to caries kiel lesion formation by 35. pH lactic acid for 12 days. The roots after that were sectioned into ground cross sections and the lesion depths were measured using a graticule under a polarizing microscope. WC CO, laser preventive treatments inhibited caries like lesion progression up ot %97. This efect was improved with increased power density within tbe limits of the examined laser parameters. Conclusion; -1 CW COy alser resulted ni a significant inhibition of the root carieslike lesion. The inhibitory effect depends upon power density of the laser beam. The optimal chopped COz laser parameters used for caries inhibition purpose aer achieved with 127.32 W/em' power density.
Introduction of fibrin adhesive system (tissucol) in periodontal surgery; part II : clinical pocket reduction and attachment regeneration
Authors: Al-Juboury Abdullatif
Published: March 2024

The major goal of periodontal therapy is to eliminate the periodontal pockets and `to create a connective tissue attachment. Forty two patients with periodontal pocketssubdivided into 2 groups, Tissucol group, 21 patient were treated surgically withintroduction of` Tissucol bioadhesive material, other 21 patients were also treatedsurgically their flaps were sutured according to the traditional suture technique. Theresult showed that there were a significant gain in the pocket depths reduction andattachment levels in both groups, but that of Tissucol group is superior than that ofsuturing group. The patients were followed for six months, the stability of the gain inTissucol group still significant, while that of suturing group showed a significant loss inpocket depth reduction and attachment level during the six months of follow up. Theresult suggested that the tissucol help in creation of connective tissue attachment andpreventing the invasion of epithelial growth. The role of oral hygiene were also taken inconsideration , as long the oral hygiene kept in healthy state level as the gain in pocketdepth and attachment level maintained stable .
