The aim of this article is to theoretically substantiate the relevance of the formation of a marketing strategy in the context of digitalization. One of today’s major issues is the rapid and unpredictable changes in the digital environment. Digital transformation is accelerating, technology is constantly changing, and new platforms and channels are emerging at an astounding rate. This presents businesses with the challenge of constantly adapting to new conditions and effectively using the available tools to achieve their marketing goals. Such dynamics require marketers to constantly update their knowledge and skills, as well as flexibility and speed in managing strategies. The oversaturation of the information space creates additional difficulties for marketers. Consumers receive a huge amount of information from a variety of sources on a daily basis, making it difficult to capture their attention. In such a situation, companies must develop creative and effective communication strategies, create high-quality content and use innovative techniques to attract and retain audiences. This can include using social media, creating video content, blogging, and other activities aimed at creating unique and engaging content. As a result of the analysis of scientific sources, it is found that the evolution of marketing is a potentially promising direction based on various factors of digitalization. In today’s digital environment, companies are discovering opportunities to evolve their marketing strategies that open up new opportunities to improve customer engagement and create closer connections. Using content personalization and AI tools to analyze data allows businesses to create more customized and relevant offers for their audiences. The active use of social media and interactive formats opens up opportunities for deeper customer engagement and community building. Improvements in mobile experiences and the use of emerging technologies such as video or as virtual reality allow businesses to create more immersive and impactful interactions with their audiences. In addition, collaboration and joint development of initiatives through open collaboration creates opportunities to increase the impact and create innovative solutions in the marketing field.

Authors: Ahmed Malek Nada , Boudour Rachid
Published: September 2024

In response to escalating road safety challenges within Algeria, marked by rising traffic volumes and urban development, the "TariqAmn Algeria" initiative emerges as a groundbreaking approach in traffic management. This study delineates the development and deployment of this innovative system, which leverages intelligent traffic signs, LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging, using laser light to measure distances) radar, and proactive brake control technologies, embedded within a robust traffic management framework. The system's dynamic adaptation to real-time traffic conditions and its enforcement of speed compliance are central to its design. Rigorous evaluations through SUMO (Simulation of Urban Mobility, a traffic simulation software) simulations and field tests in high-risk urban settings affirm its efficacy, demonstrating a 60% reduction in traffic incidents and a 50% reduction in speeding violations. By marrying local cultural insights with cutting-edge technology, "TariqAmn Algeria" not only enhances immediate road safety but also establishes a new paradigm in traffic management systems. The findings illuminate the significant scalability potential of the system, promising broader applications in enhancing road safety and adherence to traffic regulations across various regions, such as densely populated urban areas, high-traffic corridors, and accident-prone black spots. This initiative underscores the critical role of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) in modern road safety strategies and sets a precedent for future technological advancements in the field.

Authors: Wójcik Mirosław
Published: September 2024

The purpose of the paper is to determine the role of the phenomenon of algorithmic discrimination in the processes of implementing smart technologies in HR, particularly in the context of sustainable management. To accomplish this task, the author conducted a scoping review of the literature. The study indicated a significant role of the described phenomenon in shaping employee opinions about artificial intelligence and emphasised the importance of sustainable people management in its utilisation. The research results call for deeper reflection on how to assess the performance of artificial intelligence and highlight that attempting to replicate human abilities in machines not only offers new possibilities but also carries the risk of perpetuating human imperfections. The limitations of the study arise from the small number of available empirical studies in this area. The article helps to understand the essence of artificial intelligence and contributes to filling the knowledge gap regarding methods of managing people in the process of implementing smart technologies.

Authors: Jendza Dorota
Published: September 2024

Celem artykułu było wykorzystanie koncepcji ukierunkowania motywacyjnego Higginsa do zbadania i doskonalenia dopasowania pomiędzy organizacją i pracownikiem podczas realizacji celów. Badanie zostało przeprowadzone wśród 204 pracowników polskich organizacji publicznych i biznesowych z wykorzystaniem kwestionariusza Skali Organizacyjnej Orientacji Regulacyjnej. W celu zbadania spójności pomiędzy ukierunkowaniem motywacyjnym organizacji i podejmowanymi przez członków organizacji zachowaniami, zestawiono uzyskane wyniki z badań kwestionariuszowych z deklaracjami na temat podjętych działań wobec sytuacji granicznych, to znaczy takich, które okazały się ograniczeniem organizacyjnym lub niestandardową sytuacją. W wyniku przeprowadzonych badań stwierdzono, że istnieje spójność między ukierunkowaniem organizacji i zachowaniami członków organizacji w obszarze promocyjności. Brak spójności między ukierunkowaniem organizacji i jej członków zaobserwowano w obszarze prewencyjności. Niniejsze badanie pozwala lepiej zrozumieć, jakie działania mogą okazać się niezbędne do poprawy zgodności między sposobem realizacji celów organizacji a zachowaniami pracowników. Artykuł ten, będący studium empirycznym, wnosi nowe spojrzenie na zastosowanie teoretycznych koncepcji  z zakresu psychologii do zarządzania zasobami ludzkimi i doskonalenia organizacyjnego.
Zasadność funkcjonowania regulatora odpowiedzialnego za zatwierdzanie wniosków taryfowych za wodę i ścieki w świetle polityki publicznej
Authors: Mielko Cezary Jan
Published: September 2024

Przedmiotem artykułu jest ocena zasadności powołania i funkcjonowania regulatora (PGW Wody Polskie), odpowiedzialnego za zatwierdzanie taryf za dostarczanie wody oraz odprowadzanie ścieków. Poszukiwano odpowiedzi co do sensu jego funkcjonowania i czy powierzone zadania są przez niego realizowane w sposób prawidłowy. Podstawą analizy jest badanie dokumentów. Autor stawia tezę głoszącą, że lepszym rozwiązaniem od obecnego jest powrót do zatwierdzania taryf na poziomie rad gmin, tak jak miało to miejsce przed nowelizacją prawa w tym zakresie. Wskazuje także na wymiar polityczny w procesie podejmowania decyzji przy zatwierdzaniu taryf. Artykuł nawiązuje do reguł analizy instytucjonalnej zwracając uwagę na fakt, iż instytucje posiadają kluczowe znaczenie dla procesów decydowania publicznego, postaw i zachowań aktorów działań publicznych, a także uzyskiwanych rezultatów z podejmowanych działań.

Objective Radiation proctitis (RP) refers to rectal injury caused by radiation treatment of pelvic and retroperitoneal malignancies, which has a major impact on the treatment prognosis and quality of life of patients with cancer. The tetracyclic triterpene saponin monomer ginsenoside Rg3 (GRg3), the primary bioactive ingredient in ginseng extracts, has therapeutic effects against RP in rats. Here, we validated its efficacy and elucidated its mechanism of action. Methods A rat RP model was established in 48 Wistar rats. Rats were randomly divided into control (untreated), irradiation, irradiation + dexamethasone, and irradiation + GRg3 (low-, medium-, and high-dose) groups. After 2 weeks’ treatment, serum IL-4, IL-10, and TNF-α levels were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. In rectal tissue, Ikbkb, Ikka, and Casp8 mRNA expression was detected by a reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. IKK-β, IκB-α, p-IκB-α, p50, and caspase-8 protein levels were determined by western blotting. Results GRg3 significantly improved the general condition and histopathological damage in rats with RP. Moreover, GRg3 decreased the levels of factors that promote inflammation (TNF-α) and increased the levels of factors that reduce inflammation (IL-4 and IL-10). GRg3 markedly reduced the activation of NF-κB and caspase-8 signaling pathways. Conclusions Thus, GRg3 may reduce the inflammatory response by blocking the NF-κB signaling pathway and improving the balance of inflammation-related factors. GRg3 may also inhibit intestinal cell apoptosis by suppressing the TNF-α/caspase-8 signaling cascade, thereby reducing radiological rectal injury. Our results verify that GRg3 is a promising therapeutic agent for RP treatment and shed light on its mechanism.

Authors: Lenart-Gansiniec Regina , Najda-Janoszka Marta
Published: September 2024

Rozwój wiedzy oraz uzyskanie obiektywnego i uogólnionego wniosku na podstawie zgromadzonych publikacji wymaga zintegrowania wyników istniejących badań empirycznych. Jedną z technik, która w ostatnich latach zyskuje na znaczeniu jest metaanaliza. Odnosi się ona do statystycznej analizy zbioru wyników badań ilościowych w celu ich syntezy. O ile istnieje wiele publikacji zawierających wskazówki i porady w zakresie metaanalizy w badaniach zarządzania, o tyle ograniczają się one do podejść w zakresie metaanalizy, jej korzyści, procedur przeprowadzania oraz raportowania wyników. Pomijana jest kwestia słabych stron metaanalizy i sposobów ich przezwyciężania. Dlatego też w artykule skupiono się identyfikacji słabych stron metaanalizy w badaniach zarządzania oraz sposobach ich mitygacji. W oparciu o przeprowadzony przegląd literatury zidentyfikowano cztery słabe strony metaanalizy w badaniach nad zarządzaniem, jak: błąd publikacji, heterogeniczność, trudność dostępu do wszystkich mierników oraz czasochłonność. Dodatkowo do każdej słabej strony dostarczono sposoby zmniejszające ryzyko ich pojawienia się.
Circular Business Model Innovation – Literature Review
Authors: Korpysa Jarosław , Sinansari Puti
Published: September 2024

A business model is a primary entity that cannot be separated from a company. It starts from a linear one that only considers raw materials to finished goods to a circular business model that considers waste treatment and extends the product life cycle to the maximum. This shift was triggered by the innovation process rooted in environmental problems (climate change, global warming, and others) that made companies slowly opt for a circular economy because of limited resources. The business model is a strategic tool to implement the circular economy in companies and increase the company’s value. This paper aims to identify the relationship between the circular business model and the circular economy in theory and practice. The literature review study was taken from the two largest journal sources, namely Scopus and World of Science (WoS), and then processed with VosViewer to analyze the relationship of the topic between existing papers. The results show a positive relationship between the circular business model and the circular economy and provide literature recommendations to readers regarding the theory and implementation of the circular business model.
Wpływ zmian w przepisach dotyczących cienkiej kapitalizacji na strukturę finansowania polskich spółek publicznych
Authors: Adamczyk Adam , Wendorf Aleksandra
Published: September 2024

Celem artykułu jest próba określenia wpływu zmian w przepisach dotyczących cienkiej kapitalizacji na strukturę finansowania polskich publicznych przedsiębiorstw notowanych na Warszawskiej Giełdzie Papierów Wartościowych. Dodatkowo podjęto się próby rozstrzygnięcia czy wpływ tych przepisów jest różny w zależności od sektora gospodarki. Badanie przeprowadzone zostało na 486 spółkach notowanych na Giełdzie Papierów Wartościowych w Warszawie w latach 2018–2021. Przeprowadzone badania nie wykazały związku pomiędzy zmianami w przepisach a strukturą finansowania przedsiębiorstw. Sugeruje to, że wprowadzone zmiany okazały się nieskuteczne w ograniczaniu zjawiska nadmiernego zadłużenia. Większość pozycji literaturowych dotyczących problemu cienkiej kapitalizacji skupia się na zagadnieniach prawnych. Jednocześnie brakuje artykułów, których przedmiotem jest analiza ekonomicznych skutków wprowadzenia zmian w przepisach. Oryginalność badania wynika z zastosowania rozbudowanego modelu danych panelowych co pozwoliło na uwzględnienie w analizie dodatkowych czynników struktury finansowania o charakterze poza podatkowym. Nowością było zastosowanie modeli określających strukturę finansowania zawierającą zmienną uwzględniająca wpływ przepisów dotyczących cienkiej kapitalizacji. Z przeprowadzonych analiz wynika, że wprowadzone przepisy dotyczące cienkiej kapitalizacji nie wpłynęły istotnie na strukturę finansowania polskich przedsiębiorstw.

Authors: Majewska Maria , Mazur-Wierzbicka Ewa , Duarte Nelson , Nieżurawska Joanna
Published: September 2024

The main aim of the paper was to estimate the impact of older employees aged 55-74 on productivity compared with other age groups. The research (foundation of the paper) was conducted in 72 countries in the period 2000-2021. Countries were divided into three groups composed of 24 economies according to their GDP pc in 2021, i.e. the lowest GDP pc, the middle GDP pc, and the highest GDP pc countries. The study covered the five age and sex groups of employees: 25-34, 35-44, 45-54, 55-64, and 65-74. The Productive Capacities Index (PCI) built by UNCTAD and its selected categories were assumed to be dependent variables. The research results obtained for three groups of countries indicate that older employees had stronger positive impact on improving PCI than younger employees, especially on human capital development and private sector productivity. Our outcomes also suggest that older employees are better integrated than younger age groups with ICT tools that increase work productivity. To sum up, we can state that older employees can be a key factor in economic development due to their knowledge and experience, provided that others are willing to learn from them and they receive relevant organizational support.

Published: September 2024

Koncepcja governance jest coraz częściej postrzegana jako sposób radzenia sobie z kwestiami, które są na tyle złożone pod względem zakresu i skali, że wymagają zróżnicowanej wiedzy eksperckiej i zróżnicowanych zasobów. W obliczu wyzwań politycznych, społecznych, gospodarczych i demograficznych współczesne władze lokalne zostały zmuszone do włączania w proces zarządzania miastem innych interesariuszy. Artykuł ma na celu ocenę czy władze Łodzi stosują partycypacyjne podejście do zarządzania i czy stosują zasady współrządzenia. Źródłem informacji były wywiady przeprowadzone z interesariuszami miasta. Uzyskane wyniki pokazały, że zasady dobrego współrządzenia miastem nie są w praktyce stosowane, a partycypacja ma charakter fasadowy.

Assessment of the Level of Industry 4.0 Implementation in Organizations in Poland
Authors: Skórnóg Damian , Wolniak Radosław , Grebski Wies
Published: September 2024

This empirical study delves into the implementation of Industry 4.0 within organizations in Poland, with a particular focus on the impact of advanced technologies. The research challenges the prevailing notion that larger organizations are more adept at adopting Industry 4.0, while also investigating the levels of agility and adaptation among smaller entities. The study evaluates four research hypotheses by analyzing data collected from 73 organizations in Poland. Special attention is given to a comprehensive assessment of Industry 4.0 implementation, emphasizing advanced technologies such as augmented reality, artificial intelligence, and robotics. Contrary to common belief, the findings indicate that smaller organizations often demonstrate higher levels of agility and adaptation in implementing certain aspects of Industry 4.0 compared to their larger counterparts. Despite widespread awareness of Industry 4.0 concepts, a notable gap exists between awareness and effective implementation. Notably, cybersecurity emerges as the most successfully implemented area, likely due to an increased awareness of digital threats. However, other technologies like augmented reality, AI, and robotics exhibit lower implementation levels, suggesting practical application barriers. The study further reveals varying levels of readiness among different sectors to embrace new technologies.

Authors: Parmena Olimid Anca
Published: September 2024

Background: This study correlates the up-to-date ethical, functional and legal evaluations
related to the management and governance of artificial intelligence (AI) under European
Union (EU) law, particularly impacting the health data sector and medical standards as
provided by the Artificial Intelligence Act within the Regulation adopted by the European
Council in May 2024. The initial proposal for the management and governance of the AI sector
was submitted in April 2021. Three years later, on 13 March 2024, the European Union
Artificial Intelligence Act (EU AIA) was adopted by the European Parliament. Subsequently,
on 21 May 2024, the Council adopted an innovative legislative framework that harmonises the
standards and rules for AI regulation. This framework is set to take effect in May 2026, with
the central objective of stimulating and motivating a fair, safe, legal single market that respects
the principles of ethics and the fundamental rights of the human person.
Methods: The current legal analysis focuses on the European Union’s new institutional
governance involving a multistage approach to managing health data, ethical artificial
intelligence, generative artificial intelligence and classification of types of AI by considering the
degree of risk (e.g. artificial intelligence systems with limited risk and systems with high risk)
and medical devices. It outlines the legal framework for AI regulation and governance in the
EU by focusing on compliance with the previously adopted legislation in the Medical Devices
Regulation (2017) and the In-Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (2017). The paper also examines
the application of the newly adopted EU Artificial Intelligence Act in relation to national justice
systems, previous EU regulations on medical devices and personal data protection regulation,
and its correlation with the European Court of Human Rights jurisprudence. This opens up
complex discussions related to judicial reform and access to justice. For this purpose, as a
research objective, the legal analysis includes an innovative perspective following an integrative
discussion on the latest legal reforms and regulations of the AI sector in Eastern Europe
launched in 2024 with a special focus on the latest developments in the EU Candidate
Countries namely Ukraine and the Republic of Moldova.
Results and conclusions: The present research facilitates the exploration of the real benefits of
managing innovative AI systems for medical data, research, and development, as well as within
the medical technology industry.

Introdução: No Brasil, a COVID-19 causou 702.492 mortes até maio de 2023, sobrecarregando os sistemas de saúde. A coinfecção SARS-CoV-2/HIV foi pouco estudada até o momento, porém foi observado que a presença de comorbidade foi responsável por um prognóstico ruim da COVID. Objetivo: Estimar a sobrevida da coorte de pacientes coinfectados pelo SARS-CoV-2 e HIV/aids que foram internados no Hospital Universitário Gaffrée e Guinle (HUGG). Metodologia: Estudo epidemiológico observacional retrospectivo de coorte IV coinfectados pelo SARS-CoV-2 que estiveram internados no HUGG – Rede EBSERH - entre fevereiro de 2020 e julho de 2022. A coleta de dados ocorreu através da análise de prontuários. Os critérios de inclusão foram: idade superior a 18 anos, todos os status de infecção HIV. Resultados: Dos 37 participantes, 68% eram masculinos, 35,1% possuíam diagnóstico de HIV há mais de 10 anos; 70,3% apresentaram boa adesão a terapia antirretroviral. Do total, 64,9%, apresentava multimorbidades sendo que em 21,6%, uma das comorbidades estava relacionada ao sistema respiratório. A população estudada se mostrou propensa a evoluir para a forma grave, pois 56,8% apresentou sintomas de SRAG e 29,7% dos pacientes evoluíram para óbito. Pessoas que vivem com HIV e carga viral elevada são mais suscetíveis a falecerem, alterações na tomografia de tórax apresentaram um risco 28 vezes maior de evoluir para óbito. Conclusão: Presença de vidro fosco, sexo masculino e carga viral aumentada predispuseram os pacientes à óbito.

Published: September 2024

Introdução: O divertículo de Meckel é uma condição rara que decorre de uma anormalidade do processo embrionário, resultando em uma estrutura abdominal que pode provocar desfechos clínicos importantes nos pacientes. Objetivo: O presente estudo teve como objetivo avaliar os aspectos clínicos, epidemiológicos e fisiopatológicos do divertículo de Meckel e suas complicações, alicerçando a construção do conhecimento com base em relatos de casos e no conhecimento sedimentado na literatura. Materiais e Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa de literatura acerca das características clínicas gerais sobre o divertículo de Meckel e suas complicações. Utilizou-se a estratégia PICO para a elaboração da pergunta norteadora. Ademais, realizou-se o cruzamento dos descritores “Divertículo de Meckel”; “Complicações”; “Propedêutica”, nas bases de dados National Library of Medicine (PubMed MEDLINE), Scientific Eletronic Library Online (SCIELO), Ebscohost, Google Scholar e Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde (BVS). Resultados e Discussão: Os artigos demonstraram que a ocorrência do divertículo de Meckel está mais associada ao sexo masculino e em pacientes pediátricos. Também foram discutidos os mecanismos fisiopatológicos para o seu desenvolvimento, bem como as principais manifestações clínicas e as formas diagnósticas. Conclusão: Nesse contexto, o divertículo de Meckel é, na maioria das vezes, uma condição benigna que cursa com sintomatologia de abdome agudo e suas variedades. O diagnóstico é eminentemente clínico e complementado por exames de imagem. O tratamento engloba medidas de analgesia para o controle do quadro agudo e ressecção cirúrgica como opção terapêutica definitiva.

Introdução: A dor crônica é uma condição debilitante que afeta milhões de pessoas globalmente, impactando negativamente sua qualidade de vida. Definida como dor persistente por mais de três meses, pode resultar de diversas condições, como artrite, fibromialgia, neuropatia e dor lombar crônica. Objetivo: Este artigo oferece uma visão abrangente sobre as abordagens multimodais no tratamento da dor crônica, revisando intervenções farmacológicas e não farmacológicas e destacando a importância de uma abordagem integrada e holística. Metodologia: Realizou-se uma revisão da literatura, identificando 23 estudos relevantes que abordam intervenções farmacológicas e não farmacológicas no tratamento da dor crônica. Os estudos incluídos variaram em termos de desenho, população estudada e intervenções avaliadas. Resultado: Intervenções farmacológicas, como analgésicos, anti-inflamatórios, opioides, anticonvulsivantes e antidepressivos, mostraram eficácia no alívio da dor crônica. No entanto, o uso prolongado de opioides foi associado a riscos significativos de dependência e efeitos colaterais. Intervenções não farmacológicas, como fisioterapia, acupuntura e técnicas de relaxamento, mostraram-se eficazes na redução da dor e na melhoria da qualidade de vida. Abordagens integrativas, combinando tratamentos farmacológicos e não farmacológicos, mostraram resultados promissores. Discussão: Os resultados destacam a importância de uma abordagem multimodal no tratamento da dor crônica, combinando intervenções farmacológicas e não farmacológicas para proporcionar um cuidado mais abrangente e eficaz. Conclusão: Abordagens multimodais são cruciais para tratar a dor crônica, combinando tratamentos farmacológicos e não farmacológicos. Superar desafios tecnológicos, de privacidade e resistência é essencial para seu sucesso.
