The Purpose of Corporations in the Context of ESG Concerns: Continuing Shareholder Primacy or Countenancing Radical Reform?
Authors: Shariati Ahmad Ali
Published: August 2024

In the modern age, corporations have been the cornerstone of economic systems. As stakeholders are considered as all those who benefits if the company gains and losses if the company fails, corporations cannot and should not ignore or treat them as the second-class citizens. This quest in the literature has been linked to the question of corporate purpose – in other words, whom the corporation should give priority to in their business activities, shareholders, or the broader spectrum of stakeholders. While this research shows that most of the economic, legal and policy literature, with some of the most prominent philosophers at their heart, has been hostile towards stakeholder governance and prioritised shareholdersim in all circumstances, it delves into the realm of different possibilities for a new quest to see whether stakeholderism can in reality be effectual, and highlight how current literature miss the point in truly apprehending the need to serve stakeholders’ interests. In addition, this research explores the evolving concept of corporate purpose, focusing on prioritising all stakeholders over shareholders. The research reveals that corporate purpose must extend beyond procedural obligations to encompass ethical and environmental considerations, particularly within the context of ESG concerns.
Corporate Viability and the Duty to Consider the Interests of Creditors in the United Kingdom and the European Union
Authors: Gavin Philip
Published: August 2024

This article contrasts the recent UK Supreme Court case of BTI 2014 LLC v Sequana and the EU Preventive Restructuring Directive, which both examine the duty of directors to consider the interests of the company’s creditors once the company entersfinancial distress. This article firstly contrasts how the two frameworks trigger creditor consideration and what they require of directors. Then it explores how both frameworks utilise the concept of corporate viability either as a framing device for creditor paramountcy or as an independent guide for directorial judgment. The article details how deference towards directorial judgment is facilitated in either framework, particularly in relying on the commercial nature of corporate viability as distinguished from legal insolvency. It also explores how corporate viability positions the interests of different interest holders, namely in how it affects the balance between the interests of shareholders and creditors. The article furthermore explores the extent to which the consideration of broader stakeholders is facilitated by allowing directors to emphasise the importance of corporate viability. Finally, the article explores the broader implications of corporate viability and the creditor duty from the perspective of entity-based theories of corporate form and entity maximisation approaches towards the company’s interests.
Post Danmark: More than Just Another Serial Infringer
Authors: Bergqvist Christian
Published: August 2024

The Danish Postal incumbent’s, Post Danmark, struggle to acclimatize to a market without special rights has yielded epic competition cases such as Post Danmark I and Post Danmark II. While it is tempting to label Post Danmark as a serial infringer, it is fundamentally a company that was slow in accepting that letter mail presented a dying business case and viewed other services as being merely and capable of being priced accordingly. The extreme fall in letter volumes has made this position untenable, explaining the company’s financial collapse and persistent clashes with competition law. Studies of Post Danmark’s ‘troublesome’ relationship with competition law offer insights into the treatment of multi-product companies under competition law the need to police their allocation of costs and the consequences of failing in this.

In today's technological era, the Internet has become ubiquitous, playing a vital role in our daily lives. With the exponential growth of IoT innovation, millions of interconnected IoT-enabled devices rely on cloud services to communicate over the Internet. However, this rapid development also exposes these devices to various threats, with DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) and DoS (Denial of Service) attacks being particularly potent and destructive. DDoS attacks present a unique challenge as they are extremely difficult to detect using conventional intrusion detection frameworks and traditional methodologies. Fortunately, advancements in machine learning have provided a promising solution by enabling accurate differentiation between DDoS attacks and other forms of data. This study proposes a DDoS detection model based on machine learning algorithms. To conduct this study, we utilized the most recent and freely available online dataset called CICDDoS2019. Various machine learning-based techniques were explored, aiming to identify the characteristics associated with accurate classification. Among the algorithms tested, AdaBoost and XGBoost demonstrated exceptional performance. As part of future work, a hybrid approach will be incorporated into this model, further improving its capabilities. It is worth noting that this model will be continuously updated with new data on DDoS attacks, ensuring its relevance and effectiveness in combating emerging threats. By leveraging machine learning techniques, this approach enhances the detection of DDoS attacks on Internet of Things networks, safeguarding the integrity and security of connected devices and the overall IoT ecosystem.

Published: August 2024

The World Trade Organization (WTO) agreements have a broad and complex impact on its member countries, especially regarding trade policy and global economic justice. Legal challenges in implementing these agreements, including harmonization between national and international law, as well as domestic political and economic dynamics, add to the complexity of their implementation. In addition, the WTO agreements also offer significant opportunities for member countries, such as wider market access and increased foreign investment. This study aims to analyze the long-term impact of the WTO agreements on trade policy, economic justice, and sustainable development in its member countries. This study uses a qualitative approach, with data obtained from various relevant sources such as research results and previous studies, which are then processed and analyzed in depth. The results show that the WTO agreements significantly shape the direction of member countries' future trade policies, with a greater impact felt by developing countries. Global economic injustice has emerged as one of the consequences of the implementation of these agreements, where developed countries are better able to utilize WTO provisions. On the other hand, the environmental and social impacts of implementing the WTO agreements are concerns that require better integration into trade policy. Projections of future challenges suggest that the WTO must continue to adapt to global changes to remain relevant and effective. Overall, this study highlights the need for a balance between trade liberalization and the protection of social and environmental values ​​within the WTO framework.

Authors: Jin Xin , Xu Chun-Yun , Fei Jin-Feng , Fang Yu , Sun Cong-Hao
Published: August 2024

BACKGROUND

Alzheimer's disease (AD), characterized by the ongoing deterioration of neural function, often presents alongside depressive features and greatly affects the quality of life of individuals living with the condition. Although several treatment methods exist, their efficacy is limited. In recent years, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) utilizing the theta burst stimulation (TBS) mode, specifically the intermittent TBS (iTBS), has demonstrated promising therapeutic potential in the management of neuropsychiatric disorders.

AIM

To examine the therapeutic efficacy of iTBS mode of rTMS for treating depressive symptoms in patients with AD.

METHODS

This retrospective study enrolled 105 individuals diagnosed with AD with depressive symptoms at Huzhou Third Municipal Hospital, affiliated with Huzhou University, between January 2020 and December 2023. Participants received standard pharmacological interventions and were categorized into control (n = 53) and observation (n = 52) groups based on treatment protocols. The observation group received iTBS mode of rTMS, while the control group received pseudo-stimulation. A comparative analysis evaluated psychological well-being, adverse events, and therapeutic at initiation of hospitalization (T0) and 15 days post-treatment (T1).

RESULTS

At T1, both groups exhibited a marked reduction in self-rating depression scale and Hamilton depression scale scores compared to T0. Furthermore, the observation group showed a more pronounced decrease than the control group. By T1, the Mini-mental state examination scores for both groups had increased markedly from their initial T0 assessments. Importantly, the increase was particularly more substantial in the observation group than in the control group. Fourteen patients in the control group had ineffective treatment effects, while five patients in the observation group experienced the same. Additionally, the observation group experienced a substantially reduced incidence of ineffective treatment as compared to the control group (both P < 0.05); there were no recorded serious adverse events in either group.

CONCLUSION

The iTBS model of rTMS effectively treated AD with depression, improving depressive symptoms and cognitive function in patients without serious adverse reactions, warranting clinical consideration.

BACKGROUND

Post-burn anxiety and depression affect considerably the quality of life and recovery of patients; however, limited research has demonstrated risk factors associated with the development of these conditions.

AIM

To predict the risk of developing post-burn anxiety and depression in patients with non-mild burns using a nomogram model.

METHODS

We enrolled 675 patients with burns who were admitted to The Second Affiliated Hospital, Hengyang Medical School, University of South China between January 2019 and January 2023 and met the inclusion criteria. These patients were randomly divided into development (n = 450) and validation (n = 225) sets in a 2:1 ratio. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to identify the risk factors associated with post-burn anxiety and depression diagnoses, and a nomogram model was constructed.

RESULTS

Female sex, age < 33 years, unmarried status, burn area ≥ 30%, and burns on the head, face, and neck were independent risk factors for developing post-burn anxiety and depression in patients with non-mild burns. The nomogram model demonstrated predictive accuracies of 0.937 and 0.984 for anxiety and 0.884 and 0.923 for depression in the development and validation sets, respectively, and good predictive performance. Calibration and decision curve analyses confirmed the clinical utility of the nomogram.

CONCLUSION

The nomogram model predicted the risk of post-burn anxiety and depression in patients with non-mild burns, facilitating the early identification of high-risk patients for intervention and treatment.

Published: August 2024

A new system to check machine vibrations from far away has been created. It uses sensor and IoT technology and MATLAB to show data. It's better than old ways because it uses new technology to watch things right away. Here's how it works: M5StickC device on the machine. This thing has a 3-axis IMU digital sensor that measures the acceleration. Then, it sends this info to phones using Bluetooth. This makes it a small, flexible IoT platform that collects reliable data. After that, an app sends this stuff to a cloud platform. There, a MATLAB program does something called Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis. This gives you pictures of the signals in remotely showing how they change over time and how often they happen. Methods like remote vibration tests can spot equipment problems such as unbalance, gears and bearing issues on. This real-time data review and evaluation boost productivity and make things more accurate while cutting down on repair costs and time when machines aren't working. It allows factories to use predictive upkeep, which makes equipment more reliable and accurate. This means less downtime and cheaper maintenance overall.

A Hybrid Cloud Approach for Secure Authorized Deduplication System Using Facial Authentication
Authors: KEERTHANA V , Mangaiyarkarasi J , Arun A.N
Published: August 2024

Over the use of peer-to-peer encryption, businesses are able to establish private communication channels between devices or parts of devices, ensuring that no intermediary devices are able to decipher important data as it travels over the network. To safeguard sensitive information like credit card details, PIN numbers, and passwords, privacy is essential. Rather of being handed down orally, this kind of knowledge may be exchanged digitally using messaging programs such as WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger.Most of these apps use what is known as peer-to-peer encryption, a kind of two-way communication in which no one other than the two parties involved can decipher the communications transmitted and received. It is necessary to remember the master password in order to access the password safe, which stores all the passphrases in one account. Other malevolent bots and hackers are prompted to plot an assault and attempt to breach the system by this strategy.Therefore, we provide an encryption technique in our suggested work that relies on the authentic user's facial landmarks. Since it is very difficult, if not impossible, to replicate all of the face characteristics in order to fool the authentication system, this method is extremely strong. To determine the legitimate user's identity, we use the Localised Binary Pattern method in conjunction with the Gabor Wavelet on the locality preserving projection model. Both the legitimacy on the peer-to-peer network and the encryption of data communicated across the network channel are supported by the face structure that has been extracted. As a result, this forms a very strong component for the authentication and encryption of sent communications. Key Words: peer-to-peer, system, encryption, authentication, breach, transmitted

Advanced electronics have become an integral part of human lives, from Smartphones in our pockets to the modern vehicles on the road and to the satellites that orbit the earth. Power consumption has become a major constraint in these applications, often employing data- intensive digital signal processing systems and architectures. While enormous transistor density at the nanoscale has been increased in the Very Large-Scale Integration (VLSI) multicore era comparable to Moore's law, improving the performance of computing systems has become extremely difficult. Sustaining technological advancements for such energy-constrained devices has paved the way for new areas in research. “Approximate Computing (AC)” has become one of the most promising paradigms, a field that has gainedsignificant attention in the quest for energy efficiency in recent years. AC algorithms are numerically approximate rather than accurate. Inherent error resilience is the primary source of motivation behind AC. Recent research demonstrates that error resilience is pervasive in cyber search, deep learning, multimedia, recognition and data mining. Arithmetic units are the fundamental building blocks in most of the data dominated applications at the micro- architectural level of abstraction. AC is optimal for power and area efficient arithmetic circuits.

Authors: Nimbalkar Varad Pramod
Published: August 2024

Powerful navigation and safety systems are vital to ensuring autonomous (DV) or semi-autonomous vehicles continue well in varied environmental conditions. However, in such a world those who depend on that internet connectivity to navigate their car would have problems in areas where network reliability is less than perfect. The purpose of this work is to investigate the feasibility and advantages of combining offline mapping with locally sensed positioning systems for better vehicle navigation and safety. While connected to the internet, vehicles cache offline maps and use local sensor information (such as GPS) from their inertial navigation system or computer vision without needing continuous access. The research outlines a hardware-software architecture with embedded offline map data storage, edge-based road following algorithms and an integration mechanism to advanced driving assistance systems (ADAS). In the evaluation of performance, accuracy assessments with online mapping systems are considered for offline maps and how these can have implications on end driver usability as well impacts on real-world autonomous driving technologies. The results suggest that offline mapping and on-board sensor-based localization would be able to improve vehicle contextual navigation performance in diverse driving scenarios.

Published: August 2024

Background: Gout is an inflammatory arthritis caused by elevated serum urate levels due to genetic predisposition, diet, or medical comorbidities. It affects more than 2% of the world's population, and its prevalence and incidence are anticipated to continue increasing due to the aging world. Despite this trend, its treatment remains suboptimal. Nurse-led management is more effective than traditional GP-led care. This narrative review aims to identify current issues in nurse-led management of gout and provide recommendations for future improvements. Methods: Relevant studies were searched on the Web of Science, PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar. Current issues in nurse-led management of gout were then thematically organized. Results: There is high-quality evidence on the role of nurses in gout management, including patient education, individualized lifestyle/diet advice, and ULT administration. However, nurses continue to experience time constraints. Also, a few studies, though of low quality, suggested that nurses have sufficient knowledge of the clinical manifestations of gout but a limited understanding of gout management. The role of telemedicine was also revealed in two studies, but the studies were of low quality and did not reveal its effectiveness. Conclusion: Nurse-led interventions for gout management are effective but face significant challenges like time constraints and lack of knowledge. Nurses working in rheumatology departments should be trained in effective gout management. Future research should investigate the role and effectiveness of telemedicine in nurse-led gout management.

Authors: Rizkina Seila , Nasution Lukman
Published: August 2024

Organizational commitment is the process by which organizational and individual goals become increasingly integrated. This research aims to determine the effect of organizational commitment on job satisfaction of South Tapanuli Regency DPRD Secretariat employees. The research carried out includes explanatory research. The population in this study were 15 employees within the Regional Representative Council of South Tapanuli Regency. Since the population was only 15 people, the author used the entire population as a sample, namely 15 people. The data collection technique used was a questionnaire and then analyzed using simple linear regression analysis to test hypotheses, correlation analysis and coefficient of determination. Based on the research results, it can be seen that the t test on the organizational commitment variable (X) obtained a calculated t of 3.891 with a significant t of 0.002. Because the calculated t is greater than the t table (3.891 > 0.690) and with a significant level of t smaller than 0.05 (0.002 < 0.05), it can be concluded that Hο is rejected and Ha is accepted. This shows that the organizational commitment variable partially influences job satisfaction. Because the alternative hypothesis is α = 0.05 or 5% and the Confidence Interval is 95%, which means the confidence level of 15 respondents states that organizational commitment has a significant effect on job satisfaction is 95%.

The Sporothrix fungus exists in different species, S. schenckii, S. americana, S. luriei , S. globosa, S. chilensis, S. pallida and S. brasiliensis . It can be found in soil and putrefactive plant matter, occurring in tropical and subtropical regions. It is observed that infections are the result of the traumatic inoculation of fungal filaments through the skin, affecting humans who have contact with contaminated soil, plants and domestic animals. It is recorded that occurrences of contamination of people with domestic animals have been increasing in Brazil, in the southeast and south regions. The objective was to reflect on research carried out in Brazilian universities, optionally considering doctoral theses studies. State of the Art and Bibliographic methods were used, considering ten years, with a time frame from 2011 to 2020, using two databases, CAPES and BDBTD platforms. For data analysis, statistical analysis was used through ANOVA and geospatialization with the QGIS software, version QGIS-OSGeo4W-3.24.0-2 (18.02.2022). With the results, 49 productions (theses) were retrieved, 18 from the CAPES platform and 31 from the BDBTD platform and analyzed from the perspective of the thematic axes public health, infection and treatment, pharmacology and veterinary sciences. It is concluded that there are records showing the presence of the fungus in the country since the 1980s, and the treatment of the disease caused by the pathogen is possible and dependent on therapy and effective drugs, considering that it is a zoonosis and, therefore, public health issue in some states by mandatory notification.

Neste estudo, propomos uma interconexão analítica e reflexiva acerca das interfaces tecnológicas, elencando os Recursos Educacionais Digitais no contexto projetivo de escola inclusiva. Sustentamos uma metodologia de abordagem qualitativa, através de uma revisão bibliográfica, fundamentada no pensamento complexo. A questão central que direciona nossa investigação indaga como a integração de Tecnologias Digitais, inclusive a Inteligência Artificial (IA), pode facilitar o aprendizado de estudantes com deficiência em ambientes educacionais inclusivos. Em tessitura, observamos que o conhecimento tradicional, muitas vezes excludente e segregador, encontra desafios significativos diante dos novos paradigmas emergentes. As emergências promovem não uma reavaliação conceitual que não apenas identifica lacunas no entendimento tradicional, mas também propõe uma prática complexa que reconhece as interconexões inerentes à existência humana. Assim, argumentamos que uma visão mais relacional e integrada é essencial, pois a consciência sobre a interligação de todos os aspectos da vida implica uma necessidade contínua de reavaliação e entendimento ampliado.

A cólera é uma doença bacteriana infecciosa intestinal aguda de considerável potencial pandêmico, haja visto o envolvimento de diversos fatores sociodemográficos associados com o seu desenvolvimento e epidemiologia. Objetivou-se analisar o perfil epidemiológico dos indivíduos internados por cólera no Brasil, no período de janeiro de 2015 a dezembro de 2023. Essa pesquisa é caracterizada como um estudo epidemiológico descritivo temporal, cujos dados foram obtidos através de consulta ao banco de dados do Sistema de Informações Hospitalares do SUS (SIH-SUS), disponibilizados pelo Departamento de Informática do Sistema Único de Saúde (DATASUS). Foram utilizadas as seguintes variáveis: pacientes internados por cólera, sexo, faixa etária, ano de internamento e região, realizando-se a tabulação dos dados no programa Microsoft Office Excel. Foram construídos gráficos de dispersão, com linhas de tendência e coeficiente de determinação (R2), bem como tabelas para ilustrar a exposição dos resultados. No Brasil, foi registrado um total de 6.546 internações por cólera, com maior número na Região Sul (2172), seguida da Região Nordeste (1798), destacando-se a Região Norte com o menor número, sendo um total de 500 internações. Quando filtrado na faixa etária de 1 ano a 4 anos e de 80 anos ou mais, foi visualizado um percentual de 31,2% (1.126) do total das internações por cólera no Brasil e quando relacionado ao sexo, foi observado um quantitativo de 1.105 homens e 1.019 de mulheres. Com relação a linha de tendência temporal, ambas se mostraram positivas através do R2. Foi constatado que o modelo de regressão linear explica 25,64% da variabilidade de internados de faixa etária de menores de 1 a 4 anos, bem como 36,26% da variabilidade de internados idosos (80 anos ou mais). Desse modo, concluiu-se que a cólera ainda se apresenta como um problema de saúde pública, devendo-se intensificar as ações de prevenção com educação em saúde, aliadas às melhorias no saneamento básico como forma de redução direta dos casos de cólera no país.
