Background: Burnout is described as exploratory and qualitatively as a state of emotional exhaustion due to excessive demands on energy, strength or sources in workplace. It is characterized by physical symptoms such as exhaustion, fatigue, frequent headache, and gastrointestinal disorders, sleeplessness and behavioral signs include frustration, anger, a suspicious attitude omnipotence or overconfidence, cynicism and signs of depression.

Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional hospital-based study. The data was collected from 100 Physicians by a questionnaire specially prepared for the purposes of this study. Filling out the questionnaires was distributed by the research team in person. The questionnaire consisted of 27 questions, with 9 questions attributed to each of the 3 risk factors (Depersonalization, Emotional Exhaustion, and Personal Accomplishment). Data was analyzed by using SPSS program version 26 and the result was represented in tables and figures.

Results: (72%) of the participant were females and (28 %) were males, age ranged between 2 and more than 51 years, age was categorized into three groups 20–30 (73%), 31–40 (20%) and 41–50 (5%) and more than 50 (2%). Participants were distributed in 6 different specialties with Pediatrics as the most represented specialty (18%). In the level of profession most of the participant were house officer (42%) followed by registrar (32%) and the least were specialist (4%). Levels of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, (77 %) of the sample had a high level of (EE), (54%) had a high level of (DP), and (14 %) had a low level of (PA). (19%) of the residents included in this study had a high level of burnout in all three do- mains of the index, and (93%) had a high level in at least one of the three. The high level of each burnout components distributed according to the research different demographic variables and the results of the inferential statistical tests. Males had higher levels of EE (82.8%), and DP (55%), and lower levels of PA (14.9%) than females (71.6%), (54%), (12.1%) respectively.

Staring through the lens of the ANZASW Code of Ethics, it is our opinion that one ethical principle, the last clause under Manaakitanga regarding animal sentience, is starting to become more meaningful than others when one is discussing the aforementioned notions. We go further and suggest that animal rights, the natural environment, climate change, and humanities permanency have intersected and are now a united single strand and that social work, through its own Code of Ethics, may be a leading force to achieve positive outcomes on all interconnected pathways

The rationale of non-smoking adolescents’ use of electronic cigarettes (vaping)
Authors: Caie Shaanika , Ran Guanyu Jason
Published: July 2023

INTRODUCTION: Although electronic cigarettes are primarily advertised as smoking cessation tools, recent studies found a significant increase of adolescents who are non-smokers initiating the use of electronic cigarettes, and the understanding of the rationale behind those non- smoking adolescents’ use of electronic cigarettes is not yet well-established. Guided by the question “What factors increase the likelihood of non-smoking adolescents’ use of electronic cigarettes?”, this scoping review identifies the current landscape of scholarly explorations on this topic. It aims to provide heuristic implications on shaping the future research agenda that could enlighten social work interventions towards adolescents’ use of electronic cigarettes.
METHODS: Nine electronic databases were searched and primary research articles exploring the reasons why adolescents (13–18 years of age) initiated their use of electronic cigarettes were screened. A PRISMA-ScR was used to record the results from the search strategy.
FINDINGS: Of the five studies retrieved from the database search, three were qualitative studies, and two were quantitative, with all five articles being from the United States. Thematic analysis was used and identified four key themes for the factors influencing the use of electronic cigarettes in this population of interest: personal relationships, social context, ease of access, and production features.
CONCLUSION: There is a significant gap in the literature around the reasons why adolescent non-smokers use electronic cigarettes. Conducting further research into this will expand the knowledge of social work practitioners and inform future, evidence-informed interventions and electronic cigarette cessation programmes to reduce the harm electronic cigarettes may have.

Published: July 2023

The aim of the current observational study was to examine the level of adherence of Hungarian patients suffering from depression, using iFightDep­ression (iFD) guided online self-help tool with and without an extra weekly phone call support as well as identifying the predictors of adherence. Our hypotheses were: the additional weekly phone-calls would increase the adherence with the online self-help tool; furthermore, symptoms of depression will significantly decrease in the weekly phone support group. During the 6 weeks of iFD® intervention, patients were divided into two groups: the first, alongside of the treatment as usual (TAU) and iFD®, received a 20-minu­tes weekly phone call support while the other group partook in only the TAU+iFD® intervention. Measures: number of completed modules and Patient Health Questionnaire-9. The study included 102 participants with diagnosis of depression (70% female, mean age: 36.9 [SD = 11.40] ys). Participants completed on average 4.8 (SD = 1.73) out of 6 modules. The intervention group with additional phone support completed more modules than the group of no additional phone calls (Z = –5.416, p < 0.001, rank Cohen’s d = –1.267). Participants with higher level of education completed more modules than those with lower level of education (Z = –2.198, p = 0.028, rank Cohen’s d = –0.444). Baseline depressive symptoms correlated negatively with the number of completed modules (rS = –0.22, p = 0.028). Depressive symptoms were significantly reduced between the two measurement points (main effect of time: (F(1) = 179.173, p < 0.001, partial η2 = 0.642), the improvement was significantly larger in the iFD® + phone support group (time × group interaction: F(1) = 6.492, p = 0.012, partial η2 = 0.061). Weekly phone support increased treatment adherence. Negative correlation of symptom severity with adherence suggests that iFD can be effective in mild or moderate forms of depression. With regards to sociodemographic variables, only the level of education showed significant correlation with adherence. Our results support applicability of the iFD intervention in various kinds of sociodemographic groups.

IDENTIFYING COMPLEMENTARY CORNER DETECTORS FOR CORRECT IMAGE PIXELS CLASSIFICATION
Authors: N. Kanwal
Published: July 2023

Classification of digital image content is mainly done by identifying low level imagefeatures such as corners and edges. The literature shows variety of algorithms for the identification ofcorner and non-corner pixels, important for objects’ identification and image segmentation. However,all of these algorithms produce different results for same data and therefore, suitable for limitedapplications. This paper proposes a hybrid solution of combining complementary corner detectionalgorithms to improve image pixels’ classification. This has been done by identifying the bestdetection algorithm for corner points with small and large angles and producing a hybrid algorithm bycombining the latter two. Results have shown that Harris detector combined with Global and LocalCurvature Points (GLC) improved the detection rate by 28% in synthetic images, but 50% in realimages whereas, the combination of Shi’s detection algorithm with GLC enhanced the detection rateby 25.9% in synthetic images and 123% in real images, showing a significant improvement.
OPTIMIZATION OF BIODIESEL PRODUCTION THROUGH BASE-CATALYZED METHANOLYSIS OF CANTALOUPE SEED OIL
Authors: T. Akhtar
Published: July 2023

Biodiesel represents a suitable alternative to the petroleum-derived diesel fuel as it is renewable and can be used directly in compression-ignition engines. Present work was aimed at extraction of cantaloupe seed oil and its application to the production of biodiesel through base- catalyzed transesterification using four different basic catalysts viz. NaOH, NaOCH3, KOH and KOCH3. The percent yield of biodiesel afforded by these catalysts was 94.5, 88.0, 85.5 and 89.5%, respectively. The results indicated that NaOH was the best catalyst for transesterification of cantaloupe seed oil. Further, optimization of the process variable, including methanol to oil mole ratio, reaction temperature and amount of catalyst (NaOH) was carried out. The optimum levels of these variables that afforded maximum biodiesel yield were found to be 6:1 molar ratio of methanol to oil, 60 oC reaction temperature and one percent wt/wt catalyst loading. From the results obtained in this study,it was concluded that cantaloupe seed oil can be successfully utilized for the production of biodiesel as a cost-effective feedstock.

Artocarpus integrifolia L. F., economically an important medicinal plant because of its healing properties in treating multiple health disorders.The present study was intended to analyze anti-radical properties as well as phytochemical constituents of both stem and leaf extract of A. integrifolia. A. integrifolia (150 g) leaves were shade dried and extracted by double maceration technique via two polar solvent i.e. methanol and ethanol. Phytochemical screening and determination of phenolics and flavonoids was done by Folin–Ciocalteu reagent and aluminium chloride colorimetric methods. Radical scavenging activity of plant extracts were estimated by means of 2, 2-diphenyl-1- picrylhydrazyl assay. Total phenolic and flavonoid contents of both stem and leaf extract of A. integrifolia were assessed to determine the effect of Total phenolic content and Total flavonoid contents on the antioxidant activity of this plant. The result obtained from current study showed that both methanolic and ethanolic plant extracts showed presence of major classes of phytochemicals. Phenolic and flavonoids contents (1.39±0.00 & 0.93±0.05) were significantly higher in leaf extract as compared to stem using ethanol as a solvent. Both stem and leaf extract possessed significant scavenging potential in reference to used standard BHT and Vitamin E. Hence conclude that among the two parts tested A. integrifolia leaves contained maximum phytochemicals, antioxidant, phenolics and flavonoid compounds.

Conflict Refugees
Authors: Querton Christel
Published: July 2023

Based on a systematic and empirical comparative study of six European Union countries, Christel Querton explores judicial decision-making in the context of persons fleeing armed conflicts in the EU. Addressing and redressing misconceptions about the relevance of the Refugee Convention, this book demonstrates how appellate authorities across the EU approach situations of armed conflict predominantly through outdated understandings of warfare and territoriality. Thus, they apply a higher standard of proof than is warranted by international refugee law. Adopting a gender perspective, Querton also shows how appellate authorities fail to acknowledge the gender-differentiated impact of armed conflicts. Drawing from gender and security studies, this book proposes an original conceptual framework which, supported by existing international legal standards, reframes the definition of 'refugee' and better reflects the reality of violence in modern-day conflicts. In doing so, it re-asserts the Refugee Convention as the cornerstone of international protection.

Published: July 2023

The aim of this study is to examine the challenges of early
career academics working in the field of English Language Teaching (ELT) in
Türkiye while publishing in international journals, which will contribute to the
growing number of studies in different countries. In line with this thought, an
online survey was administered. Semi-structured interviews were held to collect
data for the study. Four main problems emerged from the findings: lack of
institutional support, problems in collecting data, difficulty of planning
research writing for the long term and under-training during postgraduate
studies. From their suggestions, it is evident that early career academics
should be offered training in writing for publication in the form of structured
courses, seminars or workshops as part of the preparation for their academic
careers. In addition, they need mentorship opportunities from experienced
professors. It is also evident that their teaching hours should be reduced to
allocate more time to their research and writing practices. Overall,
highlighting the barriers to writing research articles and possible suggestions
from the perspectives of early career academics can help graduate programme
developers, supervisors and deans of faculties see the obstacles encountered and
provide solutions for them.

Chest Pain in Children
Authors: PAMUK Utku , GÜRSU Alper
Published: July 2023

Chest pain is one of the most common reasons for admission to the emergency department, pediatrics and pediatric cardiology clinics in childhood. While pain is not usually caused by a serious cause, it can be of concern to the patient and their parents. Clinicians should inform the family of the benign nature of chest pain, unless they consider an important underlying cause. Routine referral of these patients to the cardiology department is not recommended, as it increases family and patient anxiety and may cause unnecessary evaluation. Chest pain can occur at any age, but its incidence increases after 10 years of age. The most frequent causes are costochondritis, chest wall muscle pain due to trauma or muscle strain and respiratory tract diseases. Cardiac reasons are rare with a prevalence of less than 6% and further diagnostic studies does not always necessary.

Vernetzung und Kooperation – das neue Leitziel der Landesplanung
Authors: Goppel Konrad
Published: July 2023

Nachdem sich das Leitziel der „Wertgleichen Lebens- und Arbeitsbedingungen“, insbesondere in Form der „Unterstrategie“ des „Erschließungsprinzips“ in den letzten Jahrzehnten nachweislich bewährt hat, kommt angesichts entscheidend geänderter Rahmenbedingungen dem Leitziel der „Vernetzung und Kooperation“ zentrale Bedeutung als neue, grundlegende landesplanerische Philosophie der kommenden Jahre zu. Dabei werden die „Wertgleichen Lebensbedingungen“ nicht abgelöst, sondern bleiben dem Prinzip der „Vernetzung und Kooperation“ übergeordnet. In abgestuftem Vorgehen hat sich „Vernetzung und Kooperation“ ausgehend vom Verkehr in sämtlichen Strukturbereichen zu vollziehen und betrifft Gebietskörperschaften wie Teilräume des Landes. Sie darf systemimmanent an den Grenzen nicht haltmachen, hat aber, dem Bild des Netzes entsprechend, den organischen Wechsel von „Knoten“ und „Maschen“ zu wahren. Auch das neue Leitziel muß gewagt werden, wie seinerzeit die „Wertgleichen Lebensbedingungen“ gewagt wurden – und gewonnen haben.

Published: July 2023

Hoi An is a famous tourist city in Central Vietnam with Cua Dai beach which is a long beautiful swimming beach. In recent years, tourism of the city is developing very fast. The southern part of Cua Dai beach was covered by many resorts which were located close to the beach and protected by hard structures such as seawall, revetment, groin,… At present, all properties closed to the beach and hard protection structures of resort system were destroyed by wave action. And the northern part of Cua Dai beach (public beach) was seriously eroded and has been protected by “Soft structure”. Cua Dai coast erosion problem becomes the hot topic in communication system from central to local governments and it becomes the big concern of Vietnamese and international scientists. This paper presents the initial study results of Cua Dai beach erosion features. Study results show that Cua Dai beach erosion/deposition phenomenon occurred for a long time but the rate of accretion was larger than that of erosion. From the year of 2000 to present the rate of erosion was larger than that of accretion. The main causes of Cua Dai beach erosion are the interaction between hard protection structures and wave action, dredging operation in Thu Bon river mouth... which reduced the longshore sediment transport rate from Thu Bon river mouth to eroded beach.

The results from processing and analyzing SPOT and Landsat images of time series to assess changing and development tendency of the ecosystems of mangroves and tidal flats by using the indicatators of square area show that: recent years, mangrove area has decreased dramatically; meanwhile aquaculture pond area has largely increased, particularly in the period after 2000. Similar to mangroves, tidal flat area has much decreased since 2000 and also related to the development of aquaculture ponds. The area of land filling in coastal area has a tendency of much increase since 2000, by factor of 2.5 only from 2002 to 2004, and mainly taken place in Ha  Long - Bai Tu Long area. With the direct corelation of spatial use of tidal flat and mangroves for development of aquaculture ponds and land filling in Quang Ninh, it is projected that the area for aquaculture development to 2010 will be about 20,000 ha and total area of mangrove and tidal flat will be in correspondence about 35,000 ha. For only mangroves, the area in Quang Ninh is predicted about 10,000 ha. With this area, mangrove ecosystem will have not enough environmental carrying capacity against wastes to be generated by aquaculture development.

Mochi cake is loved by many people because it has a good taste with a soft texture. In general, this cake is made with the main ingredients of glutinous rice, peanuts and cornstarch. Currently, there are many innovations in making mochi cakes with different ingredients. The purpose of this study was to determine the chemical and organoleptic characteristics of mochi cake which has the highest antioxidant activity and is preferred by consumers. The study used a factorial completely randomized design with the first factor being the type of extract (black glutinous rice, purple sweet potato, beetroot) and the second factor being the concentration of the added extract (50%, 70% and 90%). The results showed that the mochi that had the highest antioxidant activity and was favored by consumers was mochi with the addition of purple sweet potato extract with an extract concentration of 70%. The mochi has antioxidant activity characteristics reaching 52.08%; total phenol 276.76 mg GAE/100 g, moisture content 33.17%; 0,23% of ash; 7,04% of protein; 0,13% of fat; total carbohydrates by 59.41%. The organoleptic characteristics of mochi in that treatment were purple color (2,62); quite sticky (3.88); quite chewy (3.37); less off flavor (2.81) and the most preferred overall (3.31). The use of natural pigments that also have antioxidant activity needs to be done to improve the quality of food ingredients.concise and factual abstract is required.

In this paper, we propose a 1.5 µm all-fiber lidar system for atmospheric wind field measurements. The lidar emission source adopts the master oscillator power amplifier 1532 nm single-frequency all-fiber structure with a repetition frequency of 10 kHz. The lidar output energy is 427 µJ, and the maximum peak power is 610 W at the pulse width of 700 ns. The system utilizes Doppler wind speed coherent measurement technology, and the lidar source modulates an 80 MHz intermediate frequency carrier. The maximum longitudinal height signal distance of the lidar system is 4.5 km for atmospheric wind field, and the measurement accuracy can be within the range of 10-2 level. The lidar system can be used to detect high-altitude or long-distance high-precision wind field information. At the same time, the system can play an important role in future atmospheric environment engineering research.

The process of thermal oxidation of porous silicon photonic crystals by laser treatment has been studied experimentally and theoretically. The temperature of laser heating was calculated by solving of the non-stationary thermal conductivity equation. The degree of silicon oxidation was estimated experimentally by measuring the spectral shift of the reflection curve of photonic crystals. We demonstrate the controllable shift of the photonic band gap of porous silicon photonic crystals made by means of laser irradiation.

Published: July 2023

Climate change remains a major problem confronting agricultural productivity in Ethiopia. Maize and some other cereal crops are susceptible to climatic parameters. This study analyzed the impacts of some climatic variables on the yields of maize crops in Ethiopia using the 1981-2018 dataset. Maize production in Ethiopia is adversely affected by climate change. The augmented Cobb-Douglas Production function was used for data analyses. The results showed that the parameters of long-season rainfall, short-season rainfall, and mean maximum temperature show a negative sign and are statistically significant (p<0.05). In contrast, the minimum temperature shows a positive sign. In addition, the parameters of the quantity of fertilizer and improved seed used in maize production have a positive and significant impact on the yields of maize (p<0.10). However, the land area's elasticity coefficient shows a negative and statistically significant sign. It was concluded that changes in climatic parameters, such as an increase in short-season and long-season rainfall and an increase in maximum temperature, would reduce maize productivity. Therefore, utilizing effective climate change adaptation measures promises to enhance maize productivity in Ethiopia.
Water Vapor Variability in the Thermosphere of Mars during Mars Years 32-35
Authors: Girazian Zachary
Published: July 2023

Using Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution observations, we
characterize the variability of water vapor in the Martian thermosphere
during Mars Years 32-35. Near a fixed atmospheric pressure level of
~5 × 10 Pa, the typical water
density is 1.3 (±0.8) × 10cmand
the typical water mixing ratio is 10 (±6) ppm. Thermospheric water
levels are higher during the southern spring and summer seasons when
Mars is near perihelion and there is significant dust loading in the
lower atmosphere. However, the seasonal variation is not the same from
year-to-year, likely due annual differences in dust loading. Water vapor
is highly correlated with lower atmospheric dust, and increases during
both regional and global dust storms. Our results support previous work
that found increased dust levels allow more water to be supplied
directly to the thermosphere.

Published: July 2023

This study aims to design a valid instrument for measuring the satisfaction of internal and external users on service quality provided by an institute for research and community service (LPPM) at a university. The SERVQUAL model is applied and a case study was conducted at Universitas Muhammadiyah Surakarta. Twenty-eight research attributes and twenty attributes of community services have been developed to measure the LPPM service quality based on five dimensions criteria namely tangible, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy. The developed attributes were validated by experts, e.g., head of LPPM and his staff. Further, using bivariate Pearson correlation and Cronbach alpha those attributes were tested for validity and reliability using SPSS 23. The result showed that all attributes in the instrument were valid and reliable. Furthermore, based on the Actual SERVQUAL Score (ASC), all attributes have score more than 75%, which can be classified as better than “good” according to the UMS Quality Assurance Agency (LJM). It indicates that the customers are satisfied with the services. However, based on the service quality gap analysis (i.e., gap between the perceptions and expectations of users), all statements showed negative results, which means that the perception is lower than expectation. Hence, improvements are still required especially to those attributes with high gap
