DCBs as an adjuvant tool to DES for very complex coronary lesions
Authors: Chaddad Rima , El-Mokdad Rami , Lazar Leontin , Cortese Bernardo
Published: January 2022

Drug eluting stents (DES) have revolutionised interventional cardiology and currently represent the standard for percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). However, due to several limitations, new strategies are required, especially in very complex lesions. Drug-coated balloons (DCB) offer an attractive therapeutic alternative, and have already obtained a Class I recommendation for the treatment of in stent restenosis (ISR) with Level A of evidence. Moreover, the role of DCB has been tested in several other settings, such as de novo large vessel disease, multivessel disease or very complex lesions, with promising results regarding safety and effectiveness. In this context, a hybrid strategy consisting in the use of a DES and DCB with the aim of reducing the amount of metal implanted and minimising the risk of ISR and stent thrombosis could become the solution for very complex lesions. Several important studies already demonstrated very good angiographic results in terms of late lumen loss and restenosis for this approach in bifurcation lesions. Moreover, for long diffuse coronary disease similar rates of MACE, TVR, and TLR at 2-year follow-up in comparison to a DES-alone strategy were found. What is more, the use of this strategy in high-bleeding risk patients could safely permit the practitioners to reduce the DAPT duration, as data is suggesting. As our daily practice already strongly incorporated this strategy and with more data expected from important trials, it is our strong believe that the hybrid approach can become a standard treatment choice in the near future.
Dietary patterns, dietary nutrients and cardiovascular disease
Authors: Nestel Paul J. , Mori Trevor A.
Published: January 2022

A healthy dietary pattern can benefit multiple cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors. In conjunction with current standard-of-care pharmaceutical interventions it can provide an effective strategy for the prevention of CVD. Previous dietary recommendations have focused on targeting macronutrients. However, most of the recent international dietary guidelines now recommend a whole food, dietary pattern approach, whilst avoiding quantitative nutrient advice. The guidelines recommend: (1) increased intake of plant-based foods including complex, fibre-rich carbohydrates such as wholegrains, fruits and vegetables, but restricting the intake of refined starches; (2) substituting saturated fats with polyunsaturated and monounsaturated oils; (3) reducing salt intake; (4) increased fish consumption (or fish oils where applicable); (5) reducing sugar-sweetened drinks and added sugars; (6) avoiding butter and cream particularly in individuals at increased risk of CVD, but encouraging fermented products such as yoghurt; there is no specific advice on cheese and milk; (7) allowing consumption of lean meat in moderation but restricting processed meats; and (8) reducing cholesterol intake and foods rich in cholesterol (e.g., eggs and crustaceans) for those with diabetes and at increased CVD risk. The dietary guidelines should be adhered to in conjunction with low-to-moderate alcohol consumption, regular physical activity, avoiding tobacco and maintaining a healthy weight. This review summarises recently published research, international guidelines and position statements for minimizing CVD risk.

Background: For the Asian patients with STEMI undergoing PCI, ACEIs are known to have a better outcome than ARBs. However, there is limited evidence to suggest so. Methods: Among the STEMI registry consist of 1142 Korean patients, we compared the MACE, the composite of myocardial infarction, stoke, death, admission for heart failure, and target vessel revascularization, between the ACEI and ARB groups (Set 1). Further, we defined adequate medication as the administration of a dose equal to or higher than the initiation dose of ACEI according to the heart failure guideline recommendation with a mandatory addition of beta-blockers, and compared the outcomes between the inadequate and adequate medication groups (Set 2). Propensity score matching was used to eliminate difference. Results: In the Set 1 comparison, patients in the ACEI group had a better outcome than those in the ARB group for both whole and matched populations (whole and matched population: Cox regression hazard ratio [HR], 0.645 and 0.535; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.440–0.944 and 0.296–0.967; p = 0.024 and p = 0.039, respectively). In the Set 2 comparison for the whole population, patients in the inadequate medication group had more MACE than those in the adequate medication group (HR, 0.673; 95% CI, 0.459–0.985; p = 0.042). However, no difference was observed after propensity score matching (HR, 1.023; 95% CI, 0.654–1.602; p = 0.919). Conclusion: ACEIs might be a better choice than ARBs after primary revascularization. However, this study’s findings suggest that early ACEI dose escalation combined with beta-blocker use may not improve prognosis.

Background: Systemic inflammation can occur after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and correlates with adverse outcome. The impact of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on TAVR associated systemic inflammation is unknown and was focus of this study. Methods: We performed a prospective controlled trial at a single center and included 66 patients treated with remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) prior to TAVR, who were matched to a control group by propensity score. RIPC was applied to the upper extremity using a conventional tourniquet. Definition of systemic inflammation was based on leucocyte count, C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), assessed in the first 5 days following the TAVR procedure. Mortality was determined within 6 months after TAVR. RIPC group and matched control group showed comparable baseline characteristics. Results: Systemic inflammation occurred in 66% of all patients after TAVR. Overall, survival after 6 months was significantly reduced in patients with systemic inflammation. RIPC, in comparison to control, did not significantly alter the plasma levels of leucocyte count, CRP, PCT or IL-6 within the first 5 days after TAVR. Furthermore, inflammation associated survival after 6 months was not improved by RIPC. Of all peri-interventional variables assessed, only the amount of the applied contrast agent was connected to the occurrence of systemic inflammation. Conclusions: Systemic inflammation frequently occurs after TAVR and leads to increased mortality after 6 months. RIPC neither reduces the incidence of systemic inflammation nor improves inflammation associated patient survival within 6 months.
A synopsis of Phragmites (Poaceae) for Belarus
Authors: Tikhomirov V. N.
Published: January 2022

A taxonomic review of the Phragmites Adans. (Poaceae) in Belarus is presented. It is shown that P. nigricans (Mérat) Val. N. Tikhom. is the priority name of the widespread species formerly known as P. communis Trin. The new species P. tzvelevii Val. N. Tikhom. is described, which is apparently the result of ancient hybridization of P. nigricans and P. altissimus (Benth.) Mabille. The lectotype of the name P. nigricans is designated. A key for identification and brief descriptions of five Phragmites species identified in Belarus are provided.
Features of the foreign policy of Romania
Authors:   Institute of Scientific Information on Social Sciences, Russian Academy of Sciences, Bitkova Tatiana N.
Published: January 2022

The main part of this chapter is devoted to the consideration of the Euro-Atlantic direction of Romanian foreign policy. A brief overview of foreign policy under the administrations of the four presidents is given. The core idea that stands out is that, despite some nuances of foreign policy preferences of various presidential teams, Romania throughout the post-communist period firmly adhered to the course of participation in Euro-Atlantic structures. The chapter touches on important aspects of regional cooperation from the point of view of Romania's geopolitical ambitions: relations with the Republic of Moldova, Ukraine, and Hungary. The country's foreign policy priorities are determined by taking into account its active “pro-Americanism” and complicated relations with Russia, which have resulted from negative perception of the latter's foreign policy. The main contours of Romania's foreign policy are also examined through the prism of public opinion, including statements by representatives of nationalist groups that negatively assess the Euro-Atlantic priorities of Romanian foreign policy.
Transformation of the Slovenian cultural and political elite in the 1980s: from socialism to democracy
Authors:   Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Pilko Nadezhda S.
Published: January 2022

The death of Josip Broz Tito was a turning point in the history of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. A new period had begun. The republics began to declare their desire for independence. Initially, this desire was not explicit, covered as it was by demagogy about the democratization of society, but with every passing year it grew stronger. Slovenia was a leader in this independence process because Slovenian official authorities largely shared the democratic attitudes of both the intellectuals and society as a whole.
The politics of reconciliation in contemporary Croatia: from syncretism to “legitimate nationalism”
Authors:   Institute of Slavic Studies, Russian Academy of Sciences, Pivovarenko Aleksandr A.
Published: January 2022

The process of decommunisation in Central Europe and the Balkans paved the way for new versions of traditionalist and nationalist ideologies. The specific feature of the “new” nationalism which emerged in the 1990s is a combination of radical nationalism with solidarity, which might be defined as a set of doctrinal ideas to provide for the conflict-free existence of right and left political forces within the political system of a country. A remarkable example in this regard is Croatia, which, during the stage of statehood formation in the 1990s, faced the necessity of consolidating and integrating various elite groups who had seen themselves as opponents until the mid-1980s and who had differing concepts of state formation. The emerging ideological formula was called “the politics of reconciliation”. It led to the anchoring in contemporary Croatia of discourses and patterns that were taboo in the communist period, while some significant elements of the leftist tradition were not totally dismantled. This chapter characterizes the ideological aspects of the reconciliation in Croatia, analyzes the most remarkable examples of its implementation in the first 20 years of modern Croatia's history, and analyzes the differences between right and left discourse in 2010s.
Hungary: the policy of maneuvering between the EU, USA, China, and Russia
Authors:   Institute of Economics, Russian Academy of Sciences, Volotov Oleg G. , Volotov Sergei O. ,   Institute of Economics, Russian Academy of Sciences
Published: January 2022

In recent years, Hungary has frequently declared its special position on various issues, which differs from the point of view represented by Brussels. Brussels has, in return, criticized the Hungarian administration for restricting political rights, the growing role of state in the country's social and economic development, its persistent refusal to accept compulsory migrant quotas, its confrontation with Ukraine, and even its alleged anti-Semitism. The disaffection of Brussels with Hungarian Government policies was reflected in the Sargentini Report, which led to the threat of launching a procedure under Article 7 of the Treaty of Lisbon, which would have potentially suspended Hungary's voting rights in the EU and cut off its EU funding. Despite the existing divisions, Hungary values its EU and NATO memberships, as well as the improvements in relations with the US, although it still strives for independence while standing up for its own sovereignty. One of the tools of Hungarian foreign policy is the turn to the East, first and foremost to China and Russia, that allows Hungary to maneuver in a more effective way between the contemporary centers of power.

Fully distributed rainfall-runoff modeling using spatial-temporal graph neural network
Authors: Xiang Zhongrun , Demir Ibrahim
Published: January 2022

Recent studies using latest deep learning algorithms such as LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) have shown great promise in time-series modeling. There are many studies focusing on the watershed-scale rainfall-runoff modeling or streamflow forecasting, often considering a single watershed with limited generalization capabilities. To improve the model performance, several studies explored an integrated approach by decomposing a large watershed into multiple sub-watersheds with semi-distributed structure. In this study, we propose an innovative physics-informed fully-distributed rainfall-runoff model, NRM-Graph (Neural Runoff Model-Graph), using Graph Neural Networks (GNN) to make full use of spatial information including the flow direction and geographic data. Specifically, we applied a time-series model on each grid cell for its runoff production. The output of each grid cell is then aggregated by a GNN as the final runoff at the watershed outlet. The case study shows that our GNN based model successfully represents the spatial information in predictions. NRM-Graph network has shown less over-fitting and a significant improvement on the model performance compared to the baselines with spatial information. Our research further confirms the importance of spatially distributed hydrological information in rainfall-runoff modeling using deep learning, and we encourage researchers to incorporate more domain knowledge in modeling.
Moral psychology from the lab to the wild: Relief registries as a paradigm for studying real-world altruism
Authors: O'Connor Brendan Bo , Lee Karen , Campbell Dylan , Young Liane
Published: January 2022

Experimental psychology’s recent shift toward low-effort, high-volume methods (e.g.,self-reports, online studies) and away from the more effortful study of naturalistic behavior raises concerns about the ecological validity of findings from these fields, concerns that have become particularly apparent in the field of moral psychology. To help address these concerns, we introduce a paradigm allowing researchers to investigate an important, widespread form of altruistic behavior – charitable donations – in a manner balancing competing concerns about internal validity, ecological validity, and ease of implementation: relief registries, which leverage existing online gift registry platforms to allow research subjects to choose among highly neededdonation items to ship directly to charitable organizations. Here, we demonstrate the use of relief registries in two experiments exploring the ecological validity of the finding from our own research that people are more willing to help others after having imagined themselves doing so. In this way, we sought to provide a blueprint for researchers seeking to enhance the ecological validity of their own research in a narrow sense (i.e., by using the relief registry paradigm we introduce) and in broader terms by adapting paradigms that take advantage of modern technology to directly impact others’ lives outside the lab.
Religion-related values differently influences moral attitude for robots in the US and Japan
Authors: Ikari Shogo , Sato Kosuke , Burdett Emily , Ishiguro Hiroshi , Jong Jonathan , Nakawake Yo
Published: January 2022

Increasing evidences report that people show moral concern for robots, non-human entities. People’s attitudes toward new automation technologies such as robots and AI are influenced by their social backgrounds, including religion. Religion-related values, animism and anthropocentrism, has been recognised to be influential on preference/familiarity toward robots. However, how they affect moral care for robots under different religious tradition has not been studied. Here, we empirically examined how moral care for robots is influenced by religiosity and religion-related values with US and Japanese samples, cultures that are Abrahamic and Shinto-Buddhist traditions respectively (N = 3781). Overall, moral care for robots was higher in Japan than in the US, matching descriptions by previous authors. Moral care for robots was negatively associated with religiosity in the US and positively in Japan, although its variance was better explained by religion-related value than by religiosity itself. Further, moral care for robots had a negative association with anthropocentrism in the US, while, in Japan, it had a positive association with animism. The finding demonstrates how religious tradition could influence moral attitudes for robots, and might suggest the realm of moral consideration could be shaped by cultural traditions.
The Logic of Term Limits Pledges
Authors: Morrier Jacob
Published: January 2022

This article offers a rationale for candidates who voluntarily and preemptively place a cap on the number of terms they will eventually be in office. I build my analysis on a standard political agency model, to which I add an election campaign in which candidates can commit not to seek a second term. Pledging to term limits allows candidates to: (i) signal their private type, and (ii) shield themselves from career concerns. By doing so, politicians leverage the fact that voters endogenously prefer to elect candidates who do not seek reelection because they either: (i) have, on average, more desirable characteristics, or (ii) distort their policy decisions to a lesser extent. As a result, candidates who pledge to term limits have a higher probability of being elected in the first place. I show that there are plausible circumstances under which term limits pledges can be informative and simultaneously beneficial to voters.
Chocs de revenu et éducation des enfants en présence d’imperfections du marché du crédit et de l’assurance : Mécanismes décisionnels en Ethiopie
Authors: Benabid Jegaden Robin , Lemoine Jade
Published: January 2022

Les chocs de revenus subis par les ménages les plus démunis peuvent inciter les parents à retirer leurs enfants de l'école pour les introduire sur le marché du travail, lorsque les autres instruments de maîtrise des risques sont insuffisants. Ces réponses aux chocs à court terme peuvent entraîner des conséquences à plus long terme sur le développement du capital humain des enfants. En utilisant des données issues d’une enquête ménages en Ethiopie, nous examinons l’impact des chocs pluviométriques sur les décisions d’investissement dans le capital humain à moyen terme. Les résultats suggèrent que ces chocs climatiques réduisent l’investissement dans le capital humain de près de 8%. Dans ce contexte, les mécanismes psychologiques jouent un rôle important dans le processus décisionnel des ménages à l’origine d’une déscolarisation des enfants. Nous avançons que l’exposition aux chocs de revenus exacerbe la perception de l’investissement dans le capital éducatif comme relativement risqué, toutes choses égales par ailleurs. La forte prévalence des chocs de revenu ou le ressenti de cette prévalence peut aggraver l’aversion au risque des ménages, en accentuant la concavité de leur fonction d’utilité.
What is the current state of knowledge and distribution of evidence on established policies and programs to regulate international wildlife trade? A systematic map protocol

Published: January 2022

Background: The international trade of wildlife (animals and plants) provides critical resources for human communities worldwide and contributes to local, national, and international economies. However, increasing demand presents a significant threat to both species and ecosystems as well as wildlife-centered livelihoods. Concerns regarding illicit trade of wildlife and unsustainable harvest has propelled international wildlife trade regulation to the top of political and conservation agendas. Consequently, a broad range of interventions have been established to regulate the trade and address biodiversity decline. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of the impacts of international wildlife trade interventions, this protocol sets out the parameters for a systematic map which will comprehensively collate and describe the extent and distribution of the evidence base. The resulting map aims to provide insight to guide future research and inform practice. Methods: This systematic map will identify, map, and characterize the available evidence on the impacts of established policies and programs to address international wildlife trade. Specifically, the systematic map will describe: (1) the volume and distribution of studies that have examined impacts of various interventions on conservation, biological, and socioeconomic outcomes; (2) research methodologies that have been used to evaluate impacts; (3) distribution of studies on particular taxa and geographical areas; and (4) identify evidence gaps in need of more research. We will search two publication databases and several organizational and topical websites for relevant published articles and grey literature. In addition, a call for literature will be issued among relevant research networks. The titles, abstracts, and full texts of captured studies will be assessed against inclusion criteria. Double screening will be carried out on a subset of studies to ensure consistency. Relevant information from studies will be extracted using an a priori codebook. The resulting map will consist of descriptive statistics, a heat map in the form of a matrix, and a narrative synthesis describing characteristics of included studies.
Canon Fodder and the Intimacy of Dialogues
Authors: Oeur Freeden Blume
Published: January 2022

Michael Burawoy’s 2021 essay, “Decolonizing Sociology: The Significance of W.E.B. Du Bois,” forges dialogues between the scholar denied and established theorists with the aim of reconstructing the sociological canon. My commentary situates the author’s essay and his own Du Boisian turn in a long career dedicated to reflexive science and recomposing theory. I reflect on the seemingly innocuous notion of a dialogue itself: its implications for sociological theory and practice, and how it supports decolonial efforts. Thinking with Toni Morrison, Hazel Carby, Lisa Lowe, and others, I offer a sketch of a decolonial methodology—what I call a Du Boisian shadowplay—that brings into view the intimate dimensions of imperialism. Ultimately, such a feminist methodology reconstructs dialogues that reflect on researcher standpoints and nested imperial histories; and in the face of today’s social crises, nurtures dialogues that are animated by an ethic of love.
Public preference for sustainable land use policies – Empirical results from multinomial logit model analysis
Authors: Diriye Abdishakur W. , Jama Osman M. , Diriye Jama Warsame , Abdi Abdulhakim M
Published: January 2022

Public preferences for sustainable land use policy instruments and the motivations behind such preferences are important to make appropriate policies. Based on survey data (n = 309) from northeastern Somalia, we examined preferences for a set of land use policy instruments relative to no policy (i.e. the current status quo) and how cultural worldviews predict such preferences. We used a multinomial logit model to analyze the comparative evaluation of choices due to its interpretability and robustness to violations of normality. Overall, the results show that the respondents are likely to consent to all types of land use policy instruments relative to no policy and are more inclined to market-based and informational policy instruments. Specifically, preferences for regulatory policy instruments are positively associated with hierarchy and egalitarian worldviews and are negatively associated with fatalism and individualistic worldviews with only hierarchy and fatalism are significant. The market-based policy instrument is desirable to all cultural worldviews except fatalism, but only egalitarian and individual worldviews are significant. Preferences for informational policy instruments are positively associated with all cultural worldviews but only egalitarian worldviews showed a significant effect. Although there are some contradictions, these results are broadly consistent with the proposition of the cultural theory of risk. This study highlights that preferences for land use policies are heterogeneous with cultural worldviews mainly explaining the sources of this heterogeneity. It is evident that the respondents were willing to consent to land use policies relative to the status quo of no policy and indicates the need for concerted effort to reduce land degradation and deforestation in the country. We, therefore, recommend that policymakers incorporate the different ways that humans perceive and interpret social-environmental relations into policy decisions to achieve sustainable policy outcomes.
Percepción de desigualdad económica y su influencia sobre la justificación de las diferencias de ingreso legítimas

Published: January 2022

This study analyzes the effect of information about economic inequality on the justification of wage inequality. Using a representative sample of the metropolitan area of Santiago, Chile (n=732), we implemented an experimental survey design to replicate the results reported by Kriss-Stella Trump (2017) for the context of Sweden and the United States about wage gap justification. Our results show that factual wage information does not impact the overall wage gap justification. However, we evidenced that information about wage inequality increases the justification of wage gaps according to high and low-status occupations, which is enhanced by the joint exposure to the condition that seeks to motivate the social system justification. The study's methodological limitations are discussed, along with the implications of the evidence for the substantive analysis of attitudes toward inequality and economic redistribution.

Published: January 2022

Advances in nuclear weapon technologies from – and the corresponding evolution in the threat landscape posed by – non-allied nations over the past four years underscores the exigency of the United States (U.S) in updating its stated national security policies. Here we review and suggest options for the 2022 Nuclear Posture Review (NPR) regarding the low-yield submarine-launched cruise missile (SLCM-N) and submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) programs. The 2018 NPR called for programmatic changes to counteract the evolving threat environment and allow for greater deterrence flexibility. These programs include modernization of existing technologies and creation of novel weapons systems. Of these changes, two new programs were started to develop low-yield, sea-based, non-strategic weapons. These options are designed to counter any perceived gaps in U.S. regional deterrence capabilities. We enumerate several policy options likely to be considered by the Biden White House. Our proposed solution calls for maintenance of the W76-2 program and the continuance of the low-yield SLCM-N program; we present our argument along the axes of technical and cost considerations, service system preferences, tailored response capabilities, ensured support and defense of our allies, and prevention of escalation to war.

With a majority Muslim population, Indonesia has a good market share for Islamic banks. The existence of conventional banks becomes a competition to determine the strategy of Islamic bank managers. This study aimed to examine the effect of honesty and profit-sharing on trust mediation on consumer intentions. This study uses SPSS analysis and the Sobel test to see the role of mediation. Samples were taken as many as 384 respondents from the Muslim community. The analysis results obtained that religiosity significantly affects consumer trust and intentions. Profit and loss sharing significantly impacts confidence and does not affect consumer intentions. Trust can provide a significant mediating role. In terms of increasing the factors that influence consumer intentions, company managers must build consumer trust, the opportunity for a religious community to become a potential target market.

The antivax movement is now a constant phenomenon with increasing social implications. This study explores how the antivax movement is articulated in Romania on the basis of qualitative analysis applied to interviews. Our pilot study focuses on the opinions of 100 persons who oppose vaccination interviewed between 2017 and 2020. We conducted both face-to-face and online semistructured interviews to trace the factors determining attitudes against vaccination. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first such extended study to target individuals rather than groups or media discourse. We strive to provide a multifaceted view on how the antivax phenomenon is taking shape. Responses varied in style and length, so we needed to systematize the narratives. We filtered the answers using the interpretive net described by Entman (1993), thereby grouping the main narratives into four sections. We then reconstructed the implicit frames used by individuals in interpreting their position. We consider content quality analysis to be a relevant method to reveal the facets and depth of the antivax phenomenon, thereby enabling more complex explanations. We compare the results of this study with rationales stemming from similar investigations conducted around the world and then highlight opinions specific to the Romanian public.
RESEARCH INTO PECULIARITIES OF PHASE TRANSITIONS DURING THE DISSOCIATION OF GAS HYDRATES
Authors:   Dnipro University of Technology, Sai Kateryna
Published: January 2022

Purpose. Analytical study of the dissociation process of gas hydrates taking into account the peculiarities of phase transitions occurring during their dissociation and described by the Clausius-Clapeyron equation. Methods. The research uses an integrated approach, which includes the analysis and generalization of literature sources devoted to studying the peculiarities and thermobaric properties of gas hydrates; processes of hydrate formation and accumulation; methods for the development of gas hydrate deposits and technologies for extracting the methane gas from them; analytical calculations of phase transitions of gas hydrates. Findings. The conditions for the formation of gas hydrate deposits have been analyzed and the peculiarities of stable existence of gas hydrates have been revealed. The existing experience in the development of gas hydrate technologies by leading scientists, world research laboratories, advanced design institutes and organizations is summarized. The mechanism of hydration formation in rocks is studied and some classifications of gas hydrate deposits occurring in sedimentary rock stratum are presented. It has been determined that gas hydrates in natural conditions usually occur not only in the form of pure hydrate reservoirs, but most often contain a certain share of rock intercalations, which makes the deposit structure heterogeneous. The mechanisms of hydrate formation and dissociation of gas hydrates have been revealed. It has been determined that the Clausius-Clapeyron equation in a modified form can be used to describe phase transitions both during the formation and dissociation of gas hydrates, taking into account the deposit heterogeneity. Originality. The Clausius-Clapeyron equation for the analysis of phase transformations in solid phases during hydrate formation and dissociation of gas hydrates is defined more exactly, taking into account the consumption of additional heat due to the influence of the properties of rock intercalations. Practical implications. The research results are useful for designing the rational thermobaric parameters (pressure and temperature) in the dissociation of natural or technogenic gas hydrates, as well as for optimal control of the kinetics of the process.
Thriving at Work: The Effect of Psychological Capital on	Teachers Burnout Symptoms
Authors: Anjum Shagufta , Shehzad Shumaila , Jalal Hina
Published: January 2022

Besides thriving primary school teachers' performance, we hypothesized that whether teachers' burnout at the workplace can be reversed through psychological capital or what type of relationship exists between them. Quantitative data were gathered from 1005 participants. All the respondents were associated with primary schools located in 4 districts of the Punjab province. The data collection was done through a questionnaire and inventory. The finding explained that participants' psychological capital is negatively associated with burnout frequency and burnout intensity. This strong negative relationship of psychological capital is greater with burnout intensity (r = -.537). It is estimated that teachers' psychological capital significantly has a predictive effect on burnout. It is difficult for educational trainers to gauge the high level of psychological capital. Therefore, an authentic scientific watch of burnout symptoms among teachers is recommended. This scrutiny may lead trainers and educationists to develop methods of raising psychological money after shortlisting them.
