Practice of research in mortality of the persons, which was children on the moment of accident on Chornobyl NPP and lived on the most radioactive contaminated territories of Ukraine
Authors: Gunko Natalia , Omelyanets Mykola , Dubova Nataliia , Korotkova Natalia
Published: May 2021

Introduction. Previous studies have revealed a fairly high level of premature mortality of the population in radioactive contaminated territories (RCT) of Ukraine, which led to the feasibility of further studies of children's health at the time of the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant accident (subjects born in 1968–1986) on mortality.
Objective: to investigate retrospectively the mortality rate of subjects who were children during the CNPP accident and lived in 1986–2011 on the most radiation contaminated territories of Ukraine (Ivankivsky and Polissky districts of Kyiv region and Narodytsky and Ovrutsky districts of Zhytomyr region).
Materials and methods. The combination of information bases of the State Statistics Service of Ukraine and the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine made it possible to form a study cohort (more than 31 thousand people who at the time of the CNPP accident were 0–17 years old and they lived in Ivankivsky, Polissky, Narodytsky and Ovrutsky districts) and collect anonymized information about 2.1 thousand deaths for 1986–2011. The control was the population of Ukraine of the corresponding age. Variables were calculated in accordance with the recommendations on population statistics. Documentary analysis, theoretical, general scientific, demographic, mathematical, statistical, software-technological and graphic (using the Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel software package) research methods were applied.
Results. For the first time, the methodological and practical issues of studying the differentiation of mortality in subjects born in 1968–1986 who lived in the RCT in 1986-2011 were worked out. Average chronological mortality rate for 1986–2011 for the cohort in RHT was (2.26 ± 0.37) ‰, in Ukraine – (1.74 ± 0.74) ‰. There was revealed a significant excess of mortality rates inn RTH in comparison with the population of the country and men in comparison with women. It was established that the studied cohort potentially lost 82.3 thousand years of life over 26 years. In premature mortality, the leading role (50.4%) belonged to exogenous causes, 43.1 % – to somatic pathology, 6.55 % – to symptoms, signs and vaguely defined conditions. The average age of death for both sexes is (27.7 ± 0.11) years, for men – (28.2 ± 0.12) years, for women – (25.9 ± 0.23) years.
Conclusions. In terms of mortality rates, the state of health of subjects who were children at the time of the CNPP accident and lived in 1986–2011 in the most radiation contaminated territories of the country is recognized as worse than the population of Ukraine of the corresponding age.
Key words: radioactive contaminated territories, children on the moment of accident on Chernobyl NPP, mortality.

Published: May 2021

The International Panel on Climate Change and the World Meteorological Organization confirms risks of global warming. There is a growing interest in the prevalence of respiratory viral infections due to the current climate change.
The aim of the research was to study and analyze the dynamics of prevalence of acute respiratory viral infections/influenza for 2006–2018 in Ukraine in relation to global warming.
Materials and methods. In the course of the research, information and analytical reports provided by the Ternopil Regional Laboratory Center of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine on the incidence of respiratory viral infections in 24 regions of Ukraine and the Autonomous Republic of Crimea were used.
Results. In Kyiv, Vinnytsia, Rivne, Sumy, Volyn, Zhytomyr, Kirovohrad, Zaporizhia, Zakarpattia, Khmelnytsky, Cherkasy, Odesa, Kherson, and Mykolayiv regions, there was an annual grow of morbidity, with varying degree, compared to 2006. In Poltava, Ternopil and Chernihiv regions level of viral infection was lower than in 2006 only in two or three years of the 12-year research period.
In Ivano-Frankivsk, Chernivtsi and Dnipropetrovsk regions, about half of the studied years were characterized by the grow of morbidity from influenza compared to 2006, and in other years after the decrease there was a tendency to increase of morbidity from influenza. Only in Lviv and Kharkiv regions the level of morbidity from respiratory viral infection was higher only in 2007 and 2009 compared to 2006. In Luhansk, Donetsk regions and the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, in the period 2007–2013 the grow of influenza prevalence was observed compared to 2006.
Conclusion. Thus, in the context of increasing global warming in Ukraine from 2006 to 2018, there was a higher level of influenza/acute respiratory viral infections, compared to the period up to 2006.
Keywords: respiratory viral infections, global warming.

Toys between the Ludic and the Pedagogical Perspective in Late 19th Century Romania
Authors: Mihalache Cătălina
Published: May 2021

The paper proposes to identify what the 19th century brought as novelties in the “life” of toys, seen as items dedicated explicitly to children; I have focused, naturally, on the Romanian case. By correlating the accounts to which I had access, I was able to outline certain evolutions in the manufacture, use, purchase, and characteristics ascribed to toys in that period. I have noted, first of all, the social differentiation in terms of toy consumption. The lower classes – defined by their views of childhood, material resources and well-delimited systems of gratification/rewarding – used more or less the same games and toys. Wealthier classes recorded a more diversified consumption, with urban influences, while the children of the elites became increasingly familiar with the offers of the Western world, brought directly from the source or just copied here. Another highlighted aspect is the increase in standardisation and even the industrialisation of toy production.
Romaniani­zation and Half-Hearted Concessions. The Last Four Years of German-Language Education in Southern Bessarabia (1936-1940)
Authors: Blasen Philippe Henri
Published: May 2021

The article discusses the status of German-language education in Southern Bessarabia in the last years of Romanian domination, before the Soviet takeover in June 1940 and the subsequent resettlement of the local German population in September 1940. It shows that neither the national-liberal government (1933-1938) nor the regime of King Carol II (1938-1940) complied with the 28 October 1920 treaty between the principal allied powers and Romania respecting Bessarabia, an agreement that granted the Romanian nationals of German ethnicity the right to establish and manage schools, as well as to use the German language in the educational sphere. Both the national-liberal government and the regime of King Carol II obstructed public and confessional German-language education in Southern Bessarabia.
EU Members States legislation harmonization relating to controlled foreign companies in the area of anti-tax avoidance
Authors: Korol Volodymyr
Published: June 2021

The article is dedicated to the general aspects and peculiarities of the EU Member States legislation harmonization aimed at preventing avoidance of taxation by multinational companies through foreign entities or permanent establishments controlled by parent companies themselves or together with their associated enterprises. On the reasonable basis, the special emphasis was placed on the act of secondary legislation playing the key role in this important area, namely, Council Directive (EU) 2016/1164 of 12 July 2016 laying down rules against tax avoidance practices that directly affect the functioning of the internal market with regard to the controlled foreign companies rules. This Directive came into force on 1January 2019 and became an integral part of EU Anti-Tax Avoidance Package. Harmonization at the regional European level is being provided and, consequently, in-depth researched in the context of OECD/G-20 global Action Plan on Base Erosion and Profit Shifting. From methodological point of view, OECD Final Report on Action 3 BEPS was accepted as the analytical prism allowed the quintessence of constitutive rules of above mentioned EU Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive to be discovered properly. Accordingly, the comparative analysis was conducted through the lens of provisions of vast majority of aforesaid Final Report’s building blocks, more specifically, Rules for defining a CFC, Definition of CFC Income, Rules for computing income as well as CFC exemptions and threshold requirements, in particular, relating tax rate exemption, anti-avoidance requirement, de minimis threshold. Focusing attention on different important aspect related to CFC Income, it’s discovered special considerations of non-distributed income inclusion in the Member State taxpayer’s tax base of certain categories of passive income (interest, royalties, dividends, income from financial leasing, banking, invoicing companies, etc.) or arising from non-genuine arrangements with correlation, respectively, to entity and transaction approaches. Without limiting the foregoing, it’s discovered some argumentative issues considering European researchers as weaknesses of ATAD. It’s offered an illustration cause and effect relationship between non-recognition of passive income to be attributed to controlling parties and CFC’s substantive economic activity as far as there is reason to believe that it refuses to honor case law of the Court of Justice. Key words: controlled foreign company, passive income, substantive economic activity, non-genuine arrangement.

Pro-Inflammatory Cytokines as Potential Early Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets to Combat Ischemic Stroke
Authors:   Biotechnology Kiosk, Agrawal Megha
Published: June 2021

Ischemic stroke is a serious medical condition and widely considered one of the most common causes of death and disability in the world today. There have been notable research advances in stroke so far and studies have shown that stroke’s complex pathophysiology process involves the oxidative stress and inflammatory reaction. However, despite the progress in stroke research, currently there are no established biochemical factors available that can be employed in the early diagnostics and intervention in stroke. Mostly, stroke diagnosis is based on neuroimaging, which is not a rapid tool to diagnose stroke. This decreases the survivability rate. Further, conventional therapeutic approaches for ischemic stroke management are based on restoring blood flow to the affected brain area and these therapies are effective only during a limited time window. Hence, this procedure results in benefiting only a very small percentage of patients. In view of these limitations, the ongoing research has focused on seeking alternative treatment methods that can reduce stroke brain damage and improve patients’ outcome. To this end, research goals are targeted towards gaining insights into the inflammatory response triggered by cerebral ischemia that is supposed to play an important role in the progression of stroke, and also the subsequent study of inflammatory molecules in the acute phase of stroke. In this mini-review, we describe the inflammatory processes occurring during ischemic stroke along with the potential for pro-inflammatory cytokines to become stroke biomarkers as well as interesting neuroprotective therapeutic targets that could be blocked or stimulated to modulate inflammation after stroke. Finally, we present a perspective briefly discussing some viewpoints on future studies in the ongoing field of stroke research.

Plastik Biyodegradasyonu: Genel Sorunlar ve Biyoteknolojik Çözümler
Authors: ÖZDEN Dilara
Published: May 2021

Plastik kirliliği tüm dünyayı etkilediği gibi Türkiye’de de giderek artmakta olan çevresel bir sorundur. Plastik atıklarının uzaklaştırılması için kullanılan yöntemler yetersiz olup farklı çevresel sorunları beraberinde getirmektedir. Bu nedenle çevre dostu ve etkili bir yöntem geliştirilmelidir. Mikroorganizmaların plastik yüzeylerinde üreyebilmelerinin ve enzim aktiviteleriyle plastik biyodegradasyonu gerçekleştirebilmelerinin görülmesiyle, plastik kirliliği için mikroorganizmaların kullanılması potansiyel bir çözüm olarak görülmüştür. Birçok mikroorganizmanın plastik biyodegradasyonu gerçekleştirebildiği ve birçok enzimin biyodegradasyon süreciyle ilişkili olduğu çalışmalarla gösterilmiş olsa da plastik kirliliğine karşı biyodegradasyon etkili bir yöntem olarak kullanılamamaktadır. Biyoteknolojik yaklaşımlar ile biyodegradasyon iyileştirilerek sürecin hızlandırılması ve plastik kirliliğine karşı kullanımının yaygınlaşması amaçlanmaktadır. Bu derlemede mikroorganizmaların genel plastik biyodegradasyon mekanizmalarının yanı sıra, plastik biyodegradasyonunda görülen sorunlar ve sorunların iyileştirilmesi için biyoteknolojik yaklaşımların kullanımı ele alınmıştır. Biyodegradasyon için mikroorganizmaların bir arada kullanılması, biyosürfaktanların etkisi, genetik mühendisliği yaklaşımları, metagenomiks ve biyoinformatik yaklaşımları üzerinde durulmuştur. Önemli gelişmeler ve çalışmalara yer verilmiştir. Türkiye’de gerçekleştirilen çalışmalar ve plastik kirliliğine karşı yapılan araştırmalar da değerlendirilmiştir.
EFFICIENCY ASSESSMENT OF MEASURES TO INCREASE SUSTAINABILITY OF THE TRANSPORT SYSTEM
Authors: Makarova Irina , Shubenkova Ksenia , Pashkevich Anton
Published: June 2021

This paper considers managerial approaches to increase efficiency of the urban transport system such as promotion and integration of sustainable modes of transport, development of public transport route network, renewing the existing vehicle fleet and shift to environmental friendly fuel types in the public transport system. To assess such kind of efficiency, it is proposed to take into account the economic viability of suggested solutions as well as their influence on social sphere, environmental friendliness and sustainability of the urban transport system. The city of Naberezhnye Chelny (Russia) was chosen for the case study, where the following measures were modelled: changes of bus route network and choice of an optimal fleet on routes depending on passenger flow by hours of day. In addition, the efficiency of these measures were assessed. To evaluate the sustainability of the proposed route network, the method of “radar map” was used, which shows both strengths and weaknesses of selected indicators. Together with this evaluation, analysis of risks in managing the urban bus transportation was carried out.
Revision of the tusked bush-crickets (Tettigonioidea: Pseudophyllinae: Dicranostomus) with description of the hitherto unknown sexes
Authors: Heller Klaus-Gerhard , Helb Matthias
Published: June 2021

The genus Dicranostomus belongs to the very few Orthoptera with elongated mandibular processes, here called tusks. However, it is also one of the least studied genera from whose two species only one female and two males have been known so far. We present additional material from both species and sexes that confirms that the males have the relatively longest (2–2.8 times pronotal length) tusks of all Orthoptera. Surprisingly, the females of both species differ in this character: females of D. monoceros have tusks and those of D. nitidus do not. Based on a comparison with other species, we hypothesize that the species use holes that males can defend and use to monopolize the females.

Authors: Wu Jun , Wu Chun-Sheng , Han Hui-Lin
Published: June 2021

The discovery of Striogyia simianshanasp. nov. (Lepidoptera: Limacodidae) resulted from a research project investigating the biodiversity of the Simian Mountain Nature Reserve in Chongqing, Southwest China. This new species is characterised by several distinct features, namely the black, broken postmedial line of the forewing and the long filiform antenna found in males. The shape of its valva, transtilla, juxta and phallus also distinguish it from other congeners. Furthermore, images of the adult habitus and male genitalia are compared with similar species S. obatera Wu, 2011 and S. acuta Wu, 2020, which further illustrate characteristics unique to S. simianshana. A distribution map and key for Chinese Striogyia species are provided.
Rester en France après son diplôme ?
Authors: Blassel Romane
Published: May 2021

À partir d’une enquête qualitative, cette contribution s’intéresse aux effets de l’expérience du racisme et des discriminations dans les parcours d’étudiant·e·s en mobilité qui se sont installé·e·s en France. Elle montre que les socialisations migratoires, amicales, familiales et professionnelles tendent à éloigner le projet de départ du pays d’accueil. Mais certain·e·s étudiant·e·s, des années après leur diplôme, pensent quitter la France et recherchent un environnement plus favorable à l’étranger, notamment face à l’islamophobie, non seulement en raison d’expériences de racisme, mais aussi de la perception d’un contexte plus favorable ailleurs.

Construire une entreprise aérospatiale en marge des grandes puissances : CASA et le développement d’une industrie spatiale en Espagne (années 1960-années 1980)
Authors: Juilliet Clair , Radtka Catherine
Published: June 2021

Dans les années 1960, l’Espagne franquiste est impliquée dans plusieurs projets de coopération spatiale : d’une part avec les États-Unis et d’autre part avec les puissances européennes. Avec ces dernières, elle participe à la fondation de l’European Space Research Organisation (ESRO), organisme consacré au développement de recherches scientifiques spatiales mais dont le fonctionnement a aussi pour objectif de permettre l’émergence d’une industrie spatiale en Europe. En Espagne, Construcciones Aeronáuticas Sociedad Anónima (CASA) joue dès 1963 un rôle moteur dans l’émergence et la structuration d’activités spatiales. Alors que cette entreprise aéronautique cherche, dans ces années, à faire son entrée sur le marché de l’aviation par le biais de coopérations internationales, elle s’investit également dans la fabrication de fusées-sondes et d’éléments de structures de satellites en lien avec des partenaires industriels européens (Sud-Aviation en particulier). Appuyé sur de la documentation interne de l’entreprise (bilans annuels, conseils d’administration (CA), plans stratégiques) et des archives de l’agence spatiale et du ministère de l’Industrie français, cet article montre comment CASA accroît progressivement son niveau de compétences, notamment scientifiques et techniques, pour devenir, en l’espace de trois décennies, par ses choix opérationnels et organisationnels, une entreprise aérospatiale reconnue au niveau européen. La transformation de l’entreprise est mise en regard des évolutions politiques et économiques du pays.

Chapitre 5. La filiación del menor nacido en el extranjero mediante la técnica de gestación por sustitución ante la jurisdicción francesa y el tribunal europeo de derechos humanos
Authors: Saiz Navarro Diana Cristina
Published: May 2021

Alors que la gestation pour autrui (GPA) est interdite en France, en juillet 2015, la plus haute instance judiciaire française procéda à un revirement de jurisprudence dans ce domaine suite à la condamnation de la France à quatre reprises par la Cour européenne des droits de l’Homme (CEDH). Désormais (avril 2017, date de la communication1), la Cour de cassation déclare qu’en revirement de jurisprudence cas de GPA réalisée à l’étranger, l’acte de naissance du mineur né grâce à l’utilisation de cette technique peut être transcrit sur les registres de l’état civil français en ce qu’il désigne le père, mais non la mère qui n’a pas accouché. Le présent article a pour objet d’analyser ce revirement. Une première partie est ainsi dédiée à l’étude de l’évolution de la jurisprudence sur la GPA et du traitement de la question par le législateur français. La deuxième partie se concentre sur le revirement de jurisprudence de la Cour de cassation proprement dit suite aux condamnations de la France par la CEDH au sujet de la question de la validation en droit interne du lien établi entre le père biologique de nationalité française et le mineur né par GPA à l’étranger.

Récits de soi de jeunes vivant avec la mucoviscidose
Authors: Torterat Frédéric , Ferez Sylvain , Issanchou Damien , Silvestri Laura
Published: June 2021

Cette contribution est basée sur les résultats d’une étude des obstacles et facilitateurs à la socialisation des adolescents et jeunes adultes vivant avec la mucoviscidose. Plutôt que présenter de façon générale ces résultats, elle se focalise sur un aspect spécifique, l’analyse des différentes configurations discursives du récit de soi et du rapport singulier aux représentations des autres et de l’institution de jeunes vivant avec la mucoviscidose. Les discours recueillis manifestent plusieurs formes d’engagement social avec la maladie, notamment le désir de s’adapter à l’entourage social et de dépasser le ressassement du handicap. Même si la vie sociale s’organise plus ou moins en prise avec un suivi thérapeutique, et si elle est alourdie par un contexte éducatif encore peu adapté, les expériences propres de ces jeunes les conduisent à s’extraire de la bipartition malade/non malade pour inventer des affinités entre pairs avec la maladie. L’apport de cet article réside dans la mise en évidence d’un vécu des relations interindividuelles, qui se pose surtout en termes d’accès à la participation sociale, de sorte que la vie sociale perçue comme signifiante ne reste pas en dehors du milieu scolaire, où le handicap reste formulé comme un empêchement.
Pratiques de gestion de la diversité des ressources humaines dans les TPE camerounaises : la perception des employés
Authors: Sonkeng Germain , Gnignindikoup Issofa , Simen Nana Serge Françis , Diouf Ibrahima Dally
Published: June 2021

Notre objectif est de comprendre la perception des employés des TPE camerounaises sur les pratiques de gestion de la diversité des ressources humaines. Une étude qualitative a été menée et les données proviennent de 22 TPE, collectées par la technique des récits de vie de Bertaux (2003). L’analyse de contenu thématique révèle que les variables telles que le "Réseau personnel du fondateur" et le "Système de récompense" sont perçues par les employés comme les moyens les plus adaptés à la gestion de la diversité des ressources humaines, tandis que la variable "Formation sur le tas" semble plutôt mitigée, car elle perd ses vertus lorsqu’elle est combinée au Réseau personnel du fondateur, bien qu’elle élimine les méfaits des diversités d’ethnie et d’âge.

La recherche menée examine l’impact de la RSE et de la PPS sur la rémunération des dirigeants et l’effet modérateur de la gouvernance. L’étude empirique effectuée sur un échantillon d’entreprises françaises sur la période 2007-2016 a révélé une relation négative et significative entre la RSE et la rémunération des dirigeants pour les entreprises bien gouvernées. Ce résultat rejoint la théorie des parties prenantes, basée sur l’hypothèse de résolution des conflits. L’étude montre également une relation positive et significative entre la PPS et la rémunération des dirigeants des entreprises françaises.
La marque politique : représentativité des valeurs et polarisation partisane perçues. Le cas de l’évaluation du logo « La République En Marche » par ses adhérents
Authors: Dosquet Frédéric , Bonnardel Valérie , Charlet Nicolas
Published: June 2021

Cet article met en exergue l’absence de recherche académique portant sur l’analyse perceptuelle du logo d’une organisation partisane et de ses conséquences attitudinales au sein de ses adhérents. Si la recherche s’est consacrée sur cette question aux marques commerciales vis-à-vis des consommateurs, peu de travaux existent au sujet des marques politiques. L’étude de l’objet LREM réalisée en milieu naturel auprès des militants, apparait par conséquent opportune puisque ce mouvement a été assimilé à une marque tant par les chercheurs que les praticiens.
Au-delà du timbre-poste, la presse philatélique et son temps (1862-1918)
Authors: Rey Didier
Published: June 2021

Apparue au milieu du 19 e  siècle en Grande-Bretagne, la presse philatélique offre un visage très spécialisé, affirmant sans ambages son incompatibilité avec toute idéologie. En réalité, une lecture approfondie offre l’image de journaux reproduisant, diffusant et enrichissant les grands débats idéologiques du moment, prenant parti pour l’impérialisme et le colonialisme européen, le racisme, voire l’antisémitisme. Certes, les périodiques se positionnant de la sorte demeurent une petite minorité dans le panorama de la presse philatélique ; il n’en reste pas moins vrai que leur étude contribue à une meilleure connaissance de la circulation et de l’imprégnation des idéologies, permettant de relativiser ou, au contraire, d’accentuer certains traits des sociétés européennes du moment.
Probiotic therapy for periodontal and peri-implant health – silver bullet or sham?
Authors: Ng E. , Tay J.R.H. , Ong M.M.A. , Bostanci N. , Belibasakis G.N. , Seneviratne C.J.
Published: May 2021

Probiotics are thought to be beneficial microbes that influence health-related outcomes through host immunomodulation and modulation of the bacteriome. Its reported success in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders has led to further research on its potential applicability within the dental field due to similarities such as a polymicrobial aetiology and disease associated microbial-shifts. Although the literature is replete with studies demonstrating its efficacy, the use of probiotics in dentistry continues to polarise opinion. Here, we explore the evidence for probiotics and its effect on periodontal and peri-implant health. MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL were systemically searched from June 2010 to June 2020 based on a formulated search strategy. Of 1,956 potentially relevant articles, we selected 27 double-blinded randomised clinical trials in the areas of gingivitis, periodontitis, residual pockets during supportive periodontal therapy, and peri-implant diseases, and reviewed their efficacy in these clinical situations. We observed substantial variation in treatment results and protocols between studies. Overall, the evidence for probiotic therapy for periodontal and peri-implant health appears unconvincing. The scarcity of trials with adequate power and follow-up precludes any meaningful clinical recommendations. Thus, the routine use of probiotics for these purposes are currently unsubstantiated. Further multi-centre trials encompassing a standardised investigation on the most promising strains and administration methods, with longer observation times are required to confirm the benefits of probiotic therapy for these applications.
Effects of horse housing on musculoskeletal system post-exercise recovery
Authors: Connysson M. , Rhodin M. , Bergh A. , Jansson A.
Published: May 2021

This study examined the effects of two housing systems (control housing and loose housing) on musculoskeletal condition during recovery from race-like exercise in Standardbred horses. The hypothesis was that a loose housing system provides better conditions for musculoskeletal recovery than the control housing. Eight adult geldings (mean age 11 years) were used in a study with a cross-over design, with the control housing (CH) and loose housing (LH) treatments each run for 21 days. The horses had ad libitum access to forage and performed two similar race-like exercise tests (ET), on day 7 and day 14 in each treatment. Blood samples were collected before ET, at finish line, and at 7, 22, and 44 h of recovery and analysed for the muscle enzyme activities of creatine kinase and amino transferase. Before and three days after ET, hind leg fetlock joint region circumference and diameter, joint range of motion in right hock and carpus, mechanical nociceptive threshold in back muscle, and movement asymmetry were recorded. Overall circumference and overall diameter of hind fetlock joint region were lower in LH horses than CH horses (P=0.045 and P=0.017, respectively), but no other differences were observed. In conclusion, a loose housing system did not alter the recovery of musculoskeletal condition other than preventing a post exercise enlargement of the circumference and diameter of the hind fetlock joint region.
Barriers and Facilitators Associated With Child Abuse and Neglect Reporting Among Child Care Professionals: A Systematic Review
Authors: Wilson Ingrid A. , Lee Jongwon
Published: June 2021

Hundreds of children die every year due to child abuse and/or neglect (CAN). Despite CAN reporting laws, approximately one fifth of child care professionals fail to report CAN. The current systematic review examines 37 studies on factors associated with CAN reporting and synthesizes their findings to provide in-depth insights on CAN reporting strategies. A systematic search on peer-reviewed original studies published from 2010 to 2020 was conducted with various databases. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses for Protocols guidelines were used to screen 266 studies retrieved from the initial search; of those, 37 were retained for review. Barriers to and facilitators of CAN reporting were categorized by the following common characteristics: system and structure (e.g., reporting system infrastructure), resources and support (e.g., funding, time), sociocultural context (e.g., CAN as a family matter), reporter traits (e.g., gender), and psychological attributes (e.g., knowledge, beliefs, mistrust). Intervention strategies tailored to the needs of professionals that can maximize their CAN reporting behaviors must be developed. [

The LADAR6000: Results in Highly Myopic and Highly Astigmatic Eyes
Authors: Lee Vincent W
Published: June 2021

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: To investigate the early clinical outcomes of the Alcon LADAR6000 system in treating two difficult patient populations: those with high myopia and those with high astigmatism.

METHODS: Two series of eyes were of interest and subsequently enrolled in the study. Thirty-three eyes with preoperative manifest refraction spherical equivalent (MRSE) >-6.00 diopters (D) (high myopia group) and 25 eyes with preoperative myopic astigmatism >-1.50 D (high myopic astigmatism group) were enrolled. Mean patient age was 35 years in the high myopia group and 33 years in the astigmatism group. For the high myopia group, the mean preoperative MRSE was -8.13 D (range: -6.25 to -12.5 D). For the high myopic astigmatism group, the mean preoperative astigmatism was -1.89 D (range: -1.50 to -4.50 D). All LASIK flaps were made using a femtosecond laser with superior hinge position. Stromal ablation was performed using the LADAR6000 system for conventional treatment. All eyes were targeted for emmetropia.

RESULTS: Both groups of eyes experienced excellent clinical outcomes with 100% of eyes within ±1.00 D of attempted correction at 1 month. For the high myopia group, mean postoperative MRSE was -0.10 D at 1 month. For the high myopic astigmatism group, mean postoperative MRSE was -0.06 D at 1 month.

CONCLUSIONS: The LADAR6000 system produced excellent early clinical outcomes in two challenging patient groups using LASIK with femtosecond laser flaps. [J Refract Surg. 2006;22:S980-S982.]
Non-recours aux droits et précarisations en Région bruxelloise
Authors: Noël Laurence
Published: June 2021

Le « non-recours aux droits et services », aussi appelé « non take-up », est une situation dans laquelle une personne éligible ne bénéficie pas d’un ou plusieurs droit(s) au(x)quel(s) elle peut prétendre. La Région bruxelloise est particulièrement confrontée à la problématique pour plusieurs droits sociaux fondamentaux. Les analyses des situations individuelles, des parcours des personnes et des évolutions légales ont montré des spécificités selon les prestations. Plusieurs facteurs émergent : changements légaux dans l’octroi et le maintien de droits sociaux, multiplication des critères et démarches à accomplir, modalités d'accessibilité, complexité et instabilité grandissante des statuts dans les parcours des personnes précarisées. Une part importante des ayant-droits se décourage et certains intervenants professionnels ne s'estiment plus en mesure de pouvoir vérifier ou faire valoir l’éligibilité au vu de cette complexité croissante. Enfin, la forte dématérialisation des services (publics et privés) préalable à l'arrivée de la pandémie et accélérée depuis le premier confinement, renforce le risque de non-recours alors qu'un besoin grandissant d’aide concrète et humaine, de simplification et une détérioration de la confiance entre citoyens et État se font sentir.
Non-take-up of rights and precariousness in the Brussels Region
Authors: Noël Laurence
Published: June 2021

Non-take-up of rights and services is a situation in which an eligible person does not benefit from one or more rights to which he or she is entitled. The Brussels Region in particular is confronted with the problem for several fundamental social rights. Analyses of individual situations, people's pathways and legal developments have shown specificities according to the benefits. Several factors emerge: legal changes in the granting and maintenance of social rights, the increase in the number of criteria and procedures to be completed, accessibility procedures and the growing complexity and instability of status in the pathways of people in precarious situations. A significant proportion of beneficiaries are discouraged and some professionals no longer feel able to verify or assert eligibility due to the growing complexity. Finally, the high level of digitalisation of services (public and private) prior to the pandemic which has accelerated since the first lockdown, reinforces the risk of non-take-up while there is a growing need for concrete, human help and simplification, as well as a deterioration of trust between citizens and the state.

Comparative Study Between the MySQL Relational Database and the MongoDB NoSQL Database
Authors: Matallah Houcine , Belalem Ghalem , Bouamrane Karim
Published: June 2021

NoSQL databases are new architectures developed to remedy the various weaknesses that have affected relational databases in highly distributed systems such as cloud computing, social networks, electronic commerce. Several companies loyal to traditional relational SQL databases for several decades seek to switch to the new “NoSQL” databases to meet the new requirements related to the change of scale in data volumetry, the load increases, the diversity of types of data handled, and geographic distribution. This paper develops a comparative study in which the authors will evaluate the performance of two databases very widespread in the field: MySQL as a relational database and MongoDB as a NoSQL database. To accomplish this confrontation, this research uses the Yahoo! Cloud Serving Benchmark (YCSB). This contribution is to provide some answers to choose the appropriate database management system for the type of data used and the type of processing performed on that data.
The Moderating Effects of Leader-Member Exchange for Technology Acceptance
Authors: Hwang Yujong , Kim Soyean , Rouibah Kamel , Shin Donghee
Published: June 2021

Within the technology acceptance literature, the issue of top management support and commitment has been studied extensively; however, the issue of leadership per se has not been addressed directly. A missing piece of the leadership puzzle as it relates to technology acceptance is an exploration of how top management support gets translated in the organizational hierarchy. This study introduces leader-member exchange (LMX) to better understand this missing piece. Specifically, this research explores the role direct supervisors play in the acceptance process by end users based on the moderated model of LMX and supervisor influence. The empirical test results in the field setting show that LMX is a significant moderator for most of the technology acceptance variables within organizations. The study explores the role of the quality of the relationship between supervisors and employees as end users. It also highlights the role of LMX and supervisor influence as a conduit for the acceptance process among end users in the organization.
The Effects of Openness on Managerial Innovation in Cameroonian Companies
Authors: Tagne Joel Stephan , Ningaye Paul , Kobou Georges
Published: June 2021

The objective of this study was to analyze the effects of openness on the adoption of managerial innovation by Cameroonian companies, as well as comparing the share of managerial innovation resulting from inter-organizational networks of the same group and of different groups. Noting a lack of such a study on Cameroon, this study used data from the Centre de Recherche en Economie et Gestion (CEREG) to achieve the objective. Using a binary probit model and a recursive bivariate probit model, the authors found that, first, a company that collaborates with other companies has an increased probability of 0.37 of adopting new managerial practices, compared to another company that does not collaborate. Second, a company belonging to a group that collaborates with companies of a different group has an increased probability of 0.30 of adopting new managerial practices, compared to a company that only collaborates with companies of the group to which she belongs. Business leaders should cooperate with all market players.
Security Threat Modelling With Bayesian Networks and Sensitivity Analysis for IAAS Virtualization Stack
Authors: Asvija B.  , Eswari R.  , Bijoy M. B.
Published: June 2021

Designing security mechanisms for cloud computing infrastructures has assumed importance with the widespread adoption of public clouds. Virtualization security is a crucial component of the overall cloud infrastructure security. In this article, the authors employ the concept of Bayesian networks and attack graphs to carry out sensitivity analysis on the different components involved in virtualization security for infrastructure as a service (IaaS) cloud infrastructures. They evaluate the Bayesian attack graph (BAG) for the IaaS model to reveal the sensitive regions and thus help the administrators to secure the high risk components in the stack. They present a formal definition of the sensitivity analysis and then evaluate using the BAG model for IaaS stack. The model and analysis presented here can also be used by security analysts and designers to make a selection of the security solutions based on the risk profile of vulnerable nodes and the corresponding cost involved in adding a defense against the identified vulnerabilities.
