Objective: The aim of this study was to reveal the effect of apocynin (APO) on the factors involved in obesity-related endothelial
dysfunction (ED) and atherosclerosis (AS).
Materials and Methods: Male Wistar albino rats were divided into control (CNT), high-fat diet (HFD) and HFD+APO groups. HFD
and HFD+APO groups were fed HFD for sixteen weeks. APO (25 mg/kg) was administered to the HFD+APO group for the last four
weeks. The effects of APO on: AS-related metabolic parameters (triglyceride, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol,
insulin and leptin), oxidative stress (OS), [ malondialdehyde, glutathione, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-
oxidase-2, oxidised-low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) and 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine], low-density lipoprotein and ox-LDL uptake
potential (activin receptor-like kinase-1 and lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1, respectively), tissue inflammation
(myeloperoxidase, monocyte-chemoattractant-protein-1, tumor necrosis factor-alpha), ED (endothelial-nitric oxide synthase,
inducible-nitric oxide synthase, nitric oxide), programmed cell death (terminal deoxynucleotidyl-transferase-dUTP-nick-end
labeling, cleaved-poly-ADP-ribose-polymerase, gasdermin-D N-terminal fragment, caspase-1), smooth muscle cell transformation
(alpha-smooth muscle actin), histology and ultrastructure of thoracic aorta were evaluated.
Results: In obesity, APO had an ameliorative effect on metabolic parameters, OS, inflammation, ED, programmed cell death and ox-
LDL uptake potential, but not on foam cell formation and LDL uptake potential.
Conclusion: Apocynin may improve ED and AS in obesity by suppressing OS-linked factors involved in the early stage of AS.

Introdução: A identificação de marcas de mordidas, muitas vezes é controversa, pertence a um campo específico da ciência forense, das quais constituem a forma mais comum de evidência dentária em casos criminais e são usadas para identificar ou excluir suspeitos. Existem 3 tipos de identificação usando características das impressões das mordidas: Comparativa, Reconstrutiva e pela extração do DNA da marca de mordida. As mordidas, em Odontologia Legal, são marcas deixadas pelos dentes, podendo ser humanas ou de animais, na pele de pessoas vivas, cadáveres ou ainda sobre objetos inanimados. A singularidade da dentição humana é baseada em dois principais pontos: as características dentárias dos dentes anteriores envolvidos na mordida são únicas entre as pessoas; essa unicidade é transferida e gravada na lesão. Objetivo: O objetivo do presente estudo foi revisar a literatura sobre os métodos de identificação de mordida, discutir os métodos usados e as melhores formas de identificação. Materiais e Métodos: Uma pesquisa foi realizada nas bases de dados PubMed e Google Acadêmico, utilizando termos como "Forensic Anthropology", "Bite Force", "Human Bite" and "Bite Marks". Referências de livros didáticos considerados importantes também foram incluídos neste estudo. Considerações Finais: O uso das marcas de mordida para identificação e elucidação de crimes tem sido utilizada há muitos anos, porém estudos recentes demonstraram que essa metodologia pode apresentar falhas se critérios e técnicas não forem observados e seguidos corretamente.

Relevance. The relevance of this study is due to the high level of social danger and threat to public life and many areas of the state.

Purpose. The purpose of the work is a detailed analysis and definition of the activities of organized criminal groups.

Methodology. Among the methodological approaches used, it should be noted the theoretical methodological approach, the functional methodological approach, the formal legal methodological approach, the deduction method, the synthesis method and others.

Results. It was noted that the theory of criminal law contains a certain range of problems that are associated with criminal liability for the creation and participation in organized criminal groups. To conduct a more detailed analysis of the definition of the concept of organizational criminal groups, several approaches from the theory of criminal law were studied, which made it possible to identify the main features and principles of the formation of this kind of illegal activity. The United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime was analyzed as a study of a criminal group through the prism of studying this concept at the international level. It was noted that sustainability is one of the main features that characterizes organizational criminal activity. Using a system-structural analysis, the main characteristics of criminal communities and organizational criminal groups were identified and summarized. The Criminal Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan was analyzed and the main legal collisions related to the definition of the concept of a criminal group and ways to counter this illegal organizational activity were noted; in this regard, certain recommendations have been offered.

Conclusions. The practical value of the results obtained provides an opportunity to highlight additions to the national legislation for a more accurate definition of the concept under study and increase the effectiveness of counteracting it.

Exploring the Relationship between Digital Inclusive Finance and Traditional Finance in China
Authors: Jiang Min , Zhou Wei
Published: May 2024

Since 2016, China has incorporated the development of digital inclusive finance (DIF) into its national strategic plan and supported it with favorable policies. These policy changes not only promote the sustainable development of finance but also provide an opportunity to examine the relationship between DIF and traditional finance. This study utilizes panel data from China's prefecture-level cities spanning 2011 to 2019 and employs the generalized difference-in-difference method to analyze the impacts of relevant policies. The findings indicate a positive correlation between the level of traditional finance and the successful implementation of policies that promote DIF, suggesting a complementary relationship between traditional finance and DIF. Additionally, analysis reveals that in regions with more favorable financial and technological conditions, traditional finance plays a prominent supportive role in facilitating DIF. Therefore, policies promoting DIF should consider local financial and technological landscapes while developing tailored strategies based on the maturity level of traditional finance.

Authors: Čavalić Admir , Husaković Dijana
Published: May 2024

The relationship between the civil and business sectors has intensified in the last few years, including cross-sectoral partnerships as part of corporate social responsibility. The authors examine the impact of these partnerships on the performance of 100 of the largest businesses in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Large companies were chosen because they are most likely to be involved with corporate social responsibility activities and cooperation with civil society organizations. Methodologically, the authors analyzed the effect of these partnerships on business performance using four Balanced Scorecard components - three non-financial and one financial performance. The research results show specific influences on non-financial business performance but not financial performance.
Drivers and Impact of Intention to Adopt Online Purchases: The Moderating Effects of Cultural Values
Authors: BADIANG Alphonse MEFOUTE , NKWEI Emile Saker
Published: May 2024

This study examines the factors determining the adoption of online purchases among customers and the influence of cultural variables in an African context. The research is based on a combination of IS/IT theories and models about the adoption of online purchases. The hypotheses are tested using structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) on a sample of 446 individuals. The findings show that rational perception variables drive users' intention to adopt online purchases; cultural values in Africa affect online purchases. Customers who value physical interaction with the product are more likely to make online purchases, primarily for hedonic reasons, and the relationship between utilitarian expectation and purchase intention depends on the level of conformity to the group and the effect of intention to adopt online purchases on repeat purchase intention is positive and stronger among consumers with low group conformity. The implications and limitations of the research are explained.

Authors: Xiaotian Wang , Jantharajit Nirat , Srikhao Sarit
Published: May 2024

The aim of this study is to investigate how to foster vocational college students' autonomy in learning by integrating metacognitive strategies and social cognitive learning theory. The study uses social cognitive learning theory to look at metacognitive strategies in a systmematic and thorough way. It looks for similarities and places where the two can be combined in order to come up with a new and effective way to teach. 1) The integration of metacognitive strategies and social cognitive learning theory offers innovative perspectives and strategies for educational practice, fostering students' autonomy and social adaptability; 2) Through dual monitoring of cognition, nurturing social cognition, and deep integration of metacognitive strategies, educational practices can enhance students' cognitive control and social interaction abilities. 3) Future educational endeavors should focus on eliciting metacognitive awareness, integrating metacognitive strategies into teaching practices, and emphasizing social cognitive elements in evaluation mechanisms to address the complex challenges of modern education. 4) The fusion of these theories presents challenges in theoretical integration, teaching practices, assessment systems, and professional development, requiring innovative solutions and comprehensive support for educators and students alike. This study emphasizes the importance of teaching students reflective learning practices and actively cultivating metacognitive regulation abilities through cooperative learning. Furthermore, it underscores the necessity of integrating social cognitive aspects into assessment practices, thereby proposing an innovative educational approach.

Second-order Economic Voting in Elections to the European Parliament
Authors: Bosch Gardella Agustí
Published: May 2024

When examining citizens’ behaviour in elections to the European Parliament (EP), second order elections (SOE) and economic voting (EV) have overlooked each other as alien traditions. However, they should not be seen as incompatible: voters may use EP elections to support  national incumbents but, at the same time, this support  may be the result of an economic assessment. This  paper blends both frameworks and finds that, even though EP elections are not intended to evaluate  domestic politics, voters use them to reward or punish national incumbents (i.e. SOE) for the state of the economy (i.e. EV); a behaviour referred to here as ‘second-order economic voting’. The predominance of second-order EV is relevant for EU politics. If EP elections enhance national incumbents’ accountability while the European executive remains unacknowledged, this could be disturbing for European economic  institutions.

Com a crescente preocupação ambiental sobre desmatamento, degradação de pastagens e emissão de gases poluente em conjunto com o aumento da população e uma demanda maior por alimentos, muitas empresas rurais estão migrando dos sistemas de produção de bovinocultura de corte extensiva, se dedicando ao uso de tecnologias sustentáveis, para que haja uma maior produção sem aumento de áreas de pastejo, com a utilização de sistemas intensivos. Porém o uso de tecnologias avançadas não é uma prática acessível a todos os produtores rurais, sendo de alto custo de implementação e conhecimento técnico de manejo intensificado. Cerca de 120 milhões de hectares são de produção de bovinos a pasto, sendo que 80% desses são de cultivares da Brachiaria sp. Se manejado corretamente as pastagens fornecem grande quantidade de matéria seca e se torna uma boa forma de fornecimento nutricional diária, porém a sazonalidade destas pastagens, sendo uma diminuição de nutrientes na estação seca, requer uma suplementação para que não haja uma curva acentuada no ganho de peso e desenvolvimento dos animais. O uso de tecnologias e conhecimento técnico vem fazendo do Brasil um dos maiores produtores de carne do mundo, minimizando os danos ambientais, proporcionando aumento da taxa de lotação de suas áreas e levando a uma produção eficiente.

O objetivo deste estudo foi realizar uma revisão bibliográfica acerca das etiologias e modalidades terapêuticas associadas às fissuras no lábio e/ou no palato. As fissuras labiopalatais surgem devido a uma interrupção no desenvolvimento, onde a migração das células da crista neural, responsáveis pela fusão das estruturas faciais, é prejudicada, resultando em uma abertura no lábio e/ou céu da boca. Esta separação decorre da falta de fusão durante o desenvolvimento das porções frontal e mediana do rosto, incluindo os processos maxilares derivados da primeira estrutura faríngea. A correção da fissura labial requer uma intervenção cirúrgica inicial, geralmente realizada aos três meses de idade. Os procedimentos cirúrgicos para reparar as fissuras no palato são variados e complexos, adaptados às características específicas de cada caso e à condição geral do paciente. As fissuras no palato, conectadas ou não às fissuras labiais, podem afetar significativamente a funcionalidade e a aparência da criança, podendo também desencadear problemas psicológicos. É essencial fornecer cuidados pré e pós-cirúrgicos adequados, com a intervenção cirúrgica desempenhando um papel fundamental na melhoria da qualidade de vida do paciente. Além disso, um acompanhamento abrangente por profissionais de diversas áreas é indispensável para uma abordagem completa.

taken into account. Encompassing of six lines allows to reveal the temperature, density and extent of the gas
with high degree of validity. The best agreement of the theory with observations is obtained in the model
of the spread of inhomogeneous clouds, each of which has hot (T ≈ 18000 ÷ 19500 K) and cool regions
(T ≈ 8000 ÷ 9000 K). On average, one cloud gives about ten percent of the total flux.
THE IMPORTANCE OF KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT IN A DISTRIBUTION COMPANY. A CASE STUDY BASED ON A DISTRIBUTION COMPANY X BASED IN KRAKOW
Authors: Borecka Barbara
Published: May 2024

The aim of the article is to show that the implementation of skilful knowledge management strategies translates into real successes of modern companies and should be treated as a priority also by companies with a distribution profile, which not infrequently in the practice of their activity do not pay due attention to intangible resources, including, above all, knowledge and its skilful use. This article consists of two parts: theoretical and empirical. In the theoretical part, based on the analysis of the current management literature, the most important issues related to knowledge understood today in terms of market value will be presented. The free market economy operating in Poland forces companies to compete with one another not only in terms of tangible goods, but also in terms of intangible goods, which include knowledge. It is the foundation of intellectual capital. Therefore, its components, the historical aspect of its identification as a market value and selected ways of its management, as well as their influence on the efficiency of market entities, will be briefly presented. This part of the paper will also characterise the Polish distribution company X, based in Kraków, which operates in the installation and construction industry, selected for the study. In the empirical part, which is a case study and based on data analysis methods and interviews, the processes constituting knowledge management in the selected enterprise will be presented. The current state of knowledge management in the selected company will be presented, as well as suggestions for improvements in this area.

This article delves into the potential of the blue and green sectors situated in Langkawi Island, Malaysia. With its abundant marine and terrestrial resources, the island needs to strike a balance between its economic growth and environmental preservation imperatives. By leveraging the potential of green and blue sectors such as tourism, fisheries, renewable energy, agriculture, and forestry, Langkawi Island can serve as a model for responsible development, all while preserving its innate natural beauty and biodiversity. A survey was conducted involving 104 local respondents at various attraction points across Langkawi Island to assess the progress of these sectors. Overall, the respondents were predominantly in agreement regarding the impacts of development stemming from both the blue and green economies, coupled with the positive spill-over effects witnessed on the island. The descriptive findings indicate that the potential for growth within these blue and green economies is promising, buoyed by anticipation from both governmental and private sectors. As such, it becomes imperative for policymakers to formulate a comprehensive development plan that can adequately bolster the expansion of these sectors. This preparation will be crucial in ensuring the sustainable growth of Langkawi Island's blue and green economies, ultimately fostering a harmonious coexistence between economic progress and environmental conservation.
