The article analyzes the challenges facing Ukraine in the implementation of modern digital technologies in key areas of the economy, civil society, and public administration. The main components of these challenges include low infrastructure readiness, inadequate information literacy, and barriers to implementing egovernance. The authors point out the lack of a comprehensive approach and an information base for the implementation of egovernance, emphasizing the importance of infrastructure development and increasing information awareness among citizens and public officials. It is extremely important to study global experience in digital transformation for successful implementation in Ukraine. The article examines the implementation of initiatives using examples from other European countries, discussing how the government integrated digitization into state structures, healthcare, daily life, and how it improves the life of every citizen. The progress of Ukraine and its example, the "Diya" initiative, are also discussed.

In the modern world, where technological progress is rapidly accelerating and affecting all aspects of life, public administration becomes an integral part of this dynamic process. This article is dedicated to the study and exploration of a wide range of aspects and trends in the use of digital technologies in the field of public administration. Currently, governments and municipal bodies consider digital tools as a key instrument for optimizing their work. These tools have the potential to enhance interaction with the public, provide greater transparency and efficiency in decision-making processes. However, along with new opportunities, new challenges emerge, such as issues related to cybersecurity, protection of personal data, and ethical considerations associated with the application of technology in public administration. In an era marked by rapid technological advancements, the role of digital technologies in transforming public administration cannot be overstated. These technologies offer immense potential to streamline bureaucratic processes, enhance government transparency, and improve the delivery of public services. They empower governments to engage with citizens more effectively, making governance more responsive and citizen-centric. However, this digital transformation is not without its challenges. The article analyzes the latest scientific literature and research dedicated to this topic with the aim of identifying and thoroughly examining key trends. Special attention is given to successful initiatives and innovations in the field of digital governance that have already been successfully implemented in various countries around the world.

CONCEPTUAL ASPECT OF ADOPTION PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION DECISIONS IN THE FIELD OF STATE SECURITY
Authors:   State University of Trade and Economics, Kyiv, Ukraine, Koval Yana
Published: December 2023

In today's conditions of public administration transformation, in accordance with systemic changes in all spheres of social and economic life, the quality of governance and management processes in public authorities in the implementation of development strategies in achieving the goals of management decisions is of particular importance. The main trend of changes in management in public institutions in European countries has been the transfer of management methods and technologies from the commercial sphere to the public sphere. Management approaches and technologies developed in commercial firms are being implemented in the management practice of public organizations: participatory management replaces authoritarian management, and the monopoly on service provision is replaced by competition, competition in service provision, the mechanism of bureaucracy is transformed into the mechanism of the market. At the same time, the transition of management in government agencies from the traditional bureaucratic model to a new management model focused on finding effective solutions to problems is characterized by a greater focus on goals and mission, as opposed to focusing on rules and procedures. The purpose of the study is to form an effective mechanism for making public administration decisions in the field of state security. The article defines the essence of public administration mechanisms for making public administration decisions in the field of state security, namely: legal - in compliance of the decision with the provisions of security legislation, organizational - in establishing a rational sequence of actions of public administration bodies when making an informed decision, structural and functional - in determining the optimal structure of the decision in accordance with the functions and tasks of public administration bodies to ensure state security, which, together with other mechanisms, can be used to make a decision on the basis of the decision. The author summarizes the main elements of a public administration decision, in particular, the plan of action (direction of concentration of the main efforts, sequence and methods of achieving the goal of actions by partial tasks, areas and terms), tasks for security structures, organization of interaction between them, organization of management and support of their actions in crisis conditions.

Parallel Visions, Confluent Worlds
Authors: McGuire Richard
Published: December 2023

The Republic of Ireland left the British Commonwealth in 1949. It was traditionally overlooked by developing trends of Commonwealth literary studies from the 1960s, which tended to examine the cultural production of countries still under Commonwealth rule. From the late 1980s onwards, however, scholars of Irish literature and indeed across postcolonial studies have examined Ireland’s unique and comparative literary, historical, cultural and geographical features in relation to the contexts of broader postcolonial debates. To date, nonetheless, there has yet to be a dedicated comparative study of how the specific genre of the Irish novel developed throughout the twentieth century as a means of giving imaginative expression to particular decolonizing processes in Ireland as it disengaged from the dominant discourses of British colonial rule. Ireland’s history is clearly different from that of the former colonies of the British West Indies. Richard McGuire takes this point into account, and in Parallel Visions, Confluent Worlds he investigates how extensively the Irish novel, particularly from the 1920s, expresses forms and themes recognized by many scholars and critics to be key postcolonial concerns in West Indian novels of the same period. The British West Indies serves as a strong suitable comparative case for examination, since it has such an established wealth of study in relation to its postcolonial dimensions. This book compares five pairings of Irish and Caribbean texts that explore issues such as evolving representations of “native” peoples, late-colonial anxiety, the subversive power of women in a patriarchal-imperialist society, migration and the experience of growing up amid anti-colonial violence.

Published: December 2023

Genetic polymorphisms, in combination with unfavourable external factors, cause dysfunction of the key life support systems in the body. Studying the C825T (rs5443) polymorphism of the GNB3 gene as a genetic marker for overweight and visceral obesity will help to identify the risks of somatic disorders in young university students. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the C825T polymorphism of the GNB3 gene and morphological parameters in students of a northern university. Materials and мethods. A total of 96 students of Surgut State Pedagogical University aged 17–20 years were examined. Alleles of the rs5443 polymorphism of the GNB3 gene were identified by means of real-time polymerase chain reaction using KardioGenetika kit (Russia). Body composition was assessed using Tanita BC-601 scales. Muscle, bone and fat mass as well as visceral fat and water content were determined. Correlations between the C825T alleles of the GNB3 gene and anthropometric parameters as well as body composition were established. Results. The mutant T allele of the rs5443 polymorphism of the GNB3 gene was found in 30 % of the total sample, which reflects the general population trend. The analysis of genotype frequency distribution for the C825T polymorphism of the GNB3 gene revealed a statistically significant prevalence of the homozygous C/C genotype in female and heterozygous C/T genotype in male subjects (Pearson’s χ2 test: χ2 = 7.75; p = 0.02). Overweight students were statistically significantly more likely to have a mutant T allele compared to students with normal BMI (χ2 = 5.62; p = 0.018). A moderate direct association (at p < 0.05) between certain anthropometric parameters and body composition and the C825T polymorphism of the GNB3 gene in the examined students was found.

Published: December 2023

Background: The predictive effects of blood biomarkers (BBMs) in the progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) have been reported recently. However, controversies still exist. In the present study, we aim to identify the predictive performances of BBMs in the conversion from Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to AD.

Methods: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science from inception to June 10, 2023 were searched. Predictive potentials were evaluated by pooling the ratio of means (ROMs), relative risks (RRs), and diagnostic indexes from MCI-converters (MCI-c: MCI patients who convert to AD) and MCI-non converters (MCI-nc) based on fixed-effects or random-effects. Newcastle–Ottawa Quality Assessment Scale (NOS) was applied for quality assessment.

Results: A total of 44 studies with 9343 participants from 28 cohorts were included in the meta-analysis, whereas the other 45 articles were included in the qualitative review. The average score of 44 studies included in the meta-analysis was 7.125. In pooled ROMs, plasma Aβ42/Aβ40 was lower, whereas Aβ40, T-tau, P-tau 181, P-tau 217, NFL, and GFAP were higher in MCI-c than MCI-nc. In pooled RRs, P-tau (RR=2.50, 95%CI: 2.04-3.06) as a continuous variable, Aβ42/Aβ40 as a categorical variable (RR=1.28, 95%CI: 1.01-1.61) could predict future conversion risk of MCI patients. In diagnostic indexes, the diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) was 42 for P-tau 217 (sensitivity: 91%; specificity: 81%), 15 for P-tau 181 (sensitivity: 81%; specificity: 78%), 12.71 for GFAP (sensitivity: 71%; specificity: 86%), 6 for Aβ42/Aβ40 (sensitivity: 86%; specificity: 49%, and 6 for NFL (sensitivity: 80%; specificity: 61%).

Conclusion: Here, our results indicated that blood biomarkers held promising potential in predicting MCI conversion. However, more prospective cohorts based on particular MCI types and high-sensitivity assays are warranted to validate the results next.

An exploration of African-student agency: Placing students from historically disadvantaged communities at the centre
Authors: Larey Desireé Pearl
Published: December 2023

At the national universities within South Africa, various events during the past years indicate that students suffer under different kinds of oppression. It is widely acknowledged that students from poor, rural geographical areas find the university space alienating and not speaking to their life worlds. In this paper I respond to Fataar’s (2019) notion of the “misrecognised” university student in the South African context. My focus on students coming from historically disadvantaged communities aims to contribute to ongoing debates about social justice for students in the university sector. The problem to be addressed in this paper is the misalignment between the critical horizontal knowledge ofhistorically disadvantaged students and the knowledge codes of the university relating to learning, curriculum, and pedagogical practices. I therefore argue that if university institutional practices recognise, embrace, and align with students’ agency, resilience and adaption, a reframed institutional platform could engage students in their intellectual becoming. Furthermore, I am guided by two questions: 1) How can students from historically disadvantaged communities use their critical horizontal knowledges to connect with disciplinary and transdisciplinary knowledge of the university to enhance critical specialised consciousness in the becoming of ethical humans? and 2) How can an African theorisation of student agency form the basis to consciously reframe the core institutional function of the university? In responding to these questions, I locate my arguments in African-student agency, reviewing literature by African scholars to gain an understanding of the African concept of student agency.
Teachers’ perceptions of the psycho-social effects of COVID-19 on learners’ well-being in South African schools
Authors: Gore Oliver , Twine Corlia , Botha Johan , Naidoo Shantha
Published: December 2023

The lockdown the South African government implemented in 2020 to contain the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in school closures. During this time, and also when learners were allowed to attend school again, the focus was on the physical health and safety of the learners. However, in the process, schools might have neglected the psycho-social and mental well-being of learners, which is a state in which learners are able to manage stress and function optimally. This paper reports on a study that investigated teachers’ views on how learners’ psycho-social and mental well-being was affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. This qualitative study used semi-structured interviews to gather data from 17 teachers from five schools in two districts of the North-West Province in South Africa. The school mental health theoretical framework was used for the study because of its focus on the psycho-social mental health of learners and the role of institutions in supporting mental health. The findings indicate that learners experienced a higher level of emotional distress during the lockdown. This was caused by an increase in fear, stress, anxiety, uncertainty, frustration, anger and aggression during the pandemic. Although learners from all the schools were negatively affected by COVID-19, learners from low-income schools that had limited access to resources were affected more due to the limited professional psycho-social support they received. This highlights the need for Education Departments to build the capacity of all South African schools to address the emotional and psycho-social well-being of their learners. It is vital that schools commit themselves to enabling learners to develop a high level of resilience and antifragility at all times, not just during major crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Effect of Magnetic Field Line Topology on ICME-related GCR Modulation
Authors: Davies Emma E. , Scolini Camilla , Winslow Réka M. , Jordan Andrew P. , Möstl Christian
Published: December 2023

The large-scale magnetic structure of interplanetary coronal mass ejections (ICMEs) has been shown to affect the galactic cosmic-ray (GCR) flux measured in situ by spacecraft, causing temporary decreases known as Forbush decreases (FDs). In some ICMEs, the magnetic ejecta exhibits a magnetic flux rope (FR) structure; the strong magnetic field strength and closed field line geometry of such ICME FRs have been proposed to act as a shield to GCR transport. In this study, we identify four ICMEs near Earth that drove FDs with similar mean magnetic field strengths (20–25 nT), two ICMEs with more typical mean speeds (∼400 km s−1), and two fast (∼750 km s−1) ICMEs. Within each speed pairing, we identify an ICME that exhibited an open magnetic field line topology and compare its effect on the GCR flux to that which exhibited a mostly closed topology. We investigate the different mechanisms that contribute to the resulting ICME-related FDs and their recovery and determine which properties, if any, play a more important role than others in driving FDs. We find that much of the GCR response to the ICME events in this study is independent of the open or closed magnetic field line topology of the FR and that features such as the fluctuations in speed, magnetic field structure, and expansion within the FR may play more of a role in determining the smaller-scale structure of the FD profile.

BACKGROUND: Stasis, thrombosis, and impaired arteriovenous (AV) fistula are possible problems to manifest central venous stenosis (CVS). Almost 25% dysfunctional fistulas at patient with dialysis are known to have these problems. Proper and immediate identification of CVS is critical to improve the successful rate of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) in hemodialysis patient. We present the immediate decision of CVS in hemodialysis patients.
CASE PRESENTATION: This is case of a 53-year-old woman complaining of left arm swelling for 2 weeks. These complaints are not combined by pain, fever, or accidental injuries to the arm. She routinely undergoes hemodialysis (HD) twice a week with AV fistula access in the left arm for 12 years. HD can still run smoothly even with swelling in her left arm. PTA was performed without waiting HD problem as an immediate management of CVS and resulting without any complications.
CONCLUSION: CVS is generally associated with long-term AV fistula. The endothelial injury from physical stimulation of the vein wall preceded the development of CVS and also developed smooth muscle proliferation and microthrombi. PTA as an immediate procedure for CVS has high rate of success although patentability is low in long-term condition. This patient is still needed to follow-up for determining long-term patency.
Anti-inflammatory Effect of Gambier Catechin (Uncaria gambir Roxb) on Rheumatoid Arthritis: A Review
Authors: Rahmaddiansyah Refa , Rahmi Wahida , Rita Rauza Sukma
Published: December 2023

BACKGROUND: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the joints and varies in severity in patients. Inflammation in the joints causes high levels of systemic pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) which have an impact on permanent damage to the joints. Until now, the treatment of RA is only symptomatic, without being able to prevent the progression of damage to the joints, and this treatment also causes side effects such as gastrointestinal and cardiovascular toxicity. Therefore, many patients are looking for alternative medicine to complement their treatment.
METHODS: This research was a narrative review that was performed using PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar using pre-clinical and clinical studies which aim to determine whether the therapeutic mechanism of gambier catechin (Uncaria gambir Roxb) on RA. A literature review is carried out to formulate a scientific basis for innovation.
RESULTS: The gambier plant is a typical plant of West Sumatra, which is rich in phytochemicals. The active compounds in gambier are catechins which are classified as flavanols/flavonoids. Catechins are compounds that are well-known as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory compounds, the highest found in gambier plants. Catechins affect the expression of inflammation-related genes and proteins such as TNF-α, IL-1, and show their anti-inflammatory roles. This research is a literature review using secondary data from original research based on in vitro, in vivo, and clinical trials. The results showed that catechins can inhibit the production of IL-1, TNF-α, prostaglandin and increase levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate in rats. On histological findings, peri-synovial inflammation and cartilage damage decreased in the group given epigallocatechin-3-gallate which showed anti-rheumatic activity and increased CD4+ and CD25+ regulatory T cells, thereby inhibiting the B cell population effectively suppresses inflammation and arthritis pain and shows its therapeutic potential in the treatment of RA.
CONCLUSION: It can be concluded that gambier catechins have the potential as a candidate for RA therapy. This, if developed, can certainly improve the health status of the community locally and globally.

Background/Aims: Sex differences in the prognosis of heart failure (HF) have yielded inconsistent results, and data from Asian populations are even rare. This study aimed to investigate sex differences in clinical characteristics and long-term prognosis among Korean patients with HF.Methods: A total of 5,625 Korean patients hospitalized for acute HF were analyzed using a prospective multi-center registry database. Baseline clinical characteristics and long-term outcomes including HF readmission and death were compared between sexes.Results: Women were older than men and had worse symptoms with higher N-terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide levels. Women had a significantly higher proportion of HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). There were no significant differences in in-hospital mortality and rate of guideline-directed medical therapies in men and women. During median follow- up of 3.4 years, cardiovascular death (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 1.38; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.07–1.78; p = 0.014), and composite outcomes of death and HF readmission (adjusted HR, 1.13; 95% CI, 1.01–1.27; p = 0.030) were significantly higher in men than women. When evaluating heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and HFpEF separately, men were an independent risk factor of cardiovascular death in patients with HFrEF. Clinical outcome was not different between sexes in HFpEF.Conclusions: In the Korean multi-center registry, despite having better clinical characteristics, men exhibited a higher risk of all-cause mortality and readmission for HF. The main cause of these disparities was the higher cardiovascular mortality rate observed in men compared to women with HFrEF.
Reduced risk of gastrointestinal bleeding associated with eupatilin in aspirin plus acid suppressant users: nationwide population-based study

Published: December 2023

Background/Aims: Mucoprotective agents, such as eupatilin, are often prescribed to prevent gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding in addition to an acid suppressant despite the absence of a large-scale study. We evaluated the additional effect of eupatilin on the prevention of GI bleeding in both the upper and lower GI tract in concomitant aspirin and acid suppressant users using the nationwide database of national claims data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service (NHIS).Methods: An aspirin cohort was constructed using the NHIS claims data from 2013 to 2020. Patients who manifested with hematemesis, melena, or hematochezia were considered to have GI bleeding. A Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to determine the risk factors for GI bleeding associated with the concomitant use of GI drugs and other covariates among aspirin users.Results: Overall, a total of 432,208 aspirin users were included. The concurrent use of an acid suppressant and eupatilin (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.85, p = 0.016, vs. acid suppressant only) was a statistically significant preventive factor for GI bleeding. Moreover, a more than 3-month duration (HR = 0.88, p = 0.030) of acid suppressant and eupatilin prescription (vs. acid suppressant only) was a statistically significant preventive factor for GI bleeding.Conclusions: Eupatilin administration for ≥ 3 months showed additional preventive effect on GI bleeding in concomitant aspirin and acid suppressant users. Thus, cotreatment with eupatilin with a duration of 3 months or longer is recommended for reducing GI bleeding among aspirin plus acid suppressant users.
Highly efficient family of two-step simultaneous method for all polynomial roots

Published: December 2023

In this article, we constructed a derivative-free family of iterative techniques for extracting simultaneously all the distinct roots of a non-linear polynomial equation. Convergence analysis is discussed to show that the proposed family of iterative method has fifth order convergence. Nonlinear test models including fractional conversion, predator-prey, chemical reactor and beam designing models are included. Also many other interesting results concerning symmetric problems with application of group symmetry are also described. The simultaneous iterative scheme is applied starting with the initial estimates to get the exact roots within the given tolerance. The proposed iterative scheme requires less function evaluations and computation time as compared to existing classical methods. Dynamical planes are exhibited in CAS-MATLAB (R2011B) to show how the simultaneous iterative approach outperforms single roots finding methods that might confine the divergence zone in terms of global convergence. Furthermore, convergence domains, namely basins of attraction that are symmetrical through fractal-like edges, are analyzed using the graphical tool. Numerical results and residual graphs are presented in detail for the simultaneous iterative method. An extensive study has been made for the newly developed simultaneous iterative scheme, which is found to be efficient, robust and authentic in its domain.
Dangai fandoms under crossfire: The making of queer love in a permeable and convergent media ecology
Authors: Wang Yidong , Wang Yilan
Published: December 2023

Dangai web series burgeoned in the People's Republic of China in the late 2010s and introduced mainstream audiences to a brand of semihomoerotic media culture. We develop an ecological analysis of dangai production by surveying the four processes of online literature creation, entertainment production, censorship and regulation, and fan participation. We propose two arguments on media convergence/permeability and on queer fandom disruption. First, permeability and convergence characterize the production processes around dangai, with heterogeneous fandoms communicating intersystematically. Diverse, interconnected networks of fans serve as the infrastructure for dangai circulation among different audiences and uphold an interpretative framework prioritizing participation. Second, the broad circulation of dangai in different fields of cultural production opens an apolitical pathway for queer media representation to gain legitimacy. This pathway hinges on the tension between state control and pleasure-driven participation rather than ideological claims of identity politics.

Communication of Tradition(s): Narrative Templates of Magical Healing in Urban Shamanism
Authors: Bužeková Tatiana
Published: December 2023

The paper examines how Slovak traditional concepts related to magical healing are used in a group around an urban shaman living in Bratislava (Slovakia). It is argued that practitioners’ stories about spiritual healing are based on narrative templates which could be identified in Slovak traditional folk stories. It is concluded that folk tradition plays an important role in adapting alternative spirituality to local conditions because it contributes to better remembrance of spiritual concepts.
