Authors:   Department of Health Economics, Faculty of Public Health “Prof. Tsekomir Vodenicharov, MD, DSc, Medical University - Sofia, Sofia, Bulgaria, Yaneva Rumyana
Published: September 2022

The purpose of the present study is to perform a comparative analysis of the change in the economic indicators for the activity of the multi-profile hospitals for active treatment from the public health care system in Bulgaria before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methodology: The study used the following methods for processing and analyzing the received information: documentary method; system analysis method; comparative-analytical method; economical analysis; statistical methods – analysis of the dynamics of phenomena and graphic analysis. The need to determine and compare the economic indicators of hospitals of one group is, on the one hand, for managers of inpatient facilities to compare the hospital they manage with other hospitals of the same group, and on the other hand, the problem is particularly relevant for financing institutions - the National Health Insurance Fund, the Ministry of Health and Municipalities. Results and discussion: The main economic indicators for the activity of the medical institutions reflect the ratio of the expenses incurred by the medical institutions to the achieved results of the activity (patients passed, realized bed days, etc.), are used to evaluate the economic efficiency of the activity of the medical institutions and provide information about the “cost” of a particular type of medical care. For the observed five-year period before the COVID-19 pandemic, an increase in the average values of all economic indicators for the activity of the University and national multi-profile hospitals for active treatment, as well as the Municipal multi-profile hospitals for active treatment is characteristic - with the exception of the decrease in their value per drug day. At the Regional multi-profile hospitals for active treatment, there is a decrease in the values of the economic indicators “average cost per bed”, “average cost per food-day” and “average cost per medicine day” and a slight increase in the values of the indicators “average cost per single received patient” and “average cost per bed-day”. In the first year of the pandemic, 2020, in contrast to the previous year - 2019, there was an increase in the value of all economic indicators for the activity in the group of multi-profile hospitals for active treatment, most pronounced in the indicator “average cost per patient treated”. Conclusions: The healthcare crisis caused by the pandemic raises many questions about the adequacy of the healthcare system in the country, its capacity, opportunities and problems. In response to the crisis, the government of the Republic of Bulgaria is increasing public spending on healthcare in 2020 by approximately BGN 628 million.

Published: September 2022

In this study, the effects of GroBiotic®-A on growth performance, survival rate, and feed conversion ratios of green tiger shrimp were investigated. The commercial GroBiotic®-A was added to the commercial sea bass feed diet at 4 different levels (0, 0.5, 1, and 2%). Penaeus semisulcatus juvenile with an average weight of 1.65±0.08 g was stocked randomly in 0.785 m2 cylindrical tanks and grown for 45 days. The experiment consisted of four treatment groups, each with three replications. Although the survival rate and weight gain were found highest in the group with 2% GroBiotic®-A supplementation, no statistically significant difference was found (P>0.05) among the treatment groups. The feed conversion rate was best observed in the control and 2% GroBiotic®-A supplemented groups, but it was found to be statistically insignificant (P>0.05). According to the results of the current study, when the growth, survival rate and feed conversion ratios are taken into account, it is thought that adding 2% GroBiotic®-A to shrimp feeds will be beneficial.
Book Review: 21st Century Monetary Policy: The Federal Reserve from the Great Inflation to COVID-19
Authors: Brown Brendan
Published: September 2022

Ben Bernanke's new book, _21st Century Monetary Policy: The Federal Reserve from the Great Inflation to COVID-19_ reflects his confidence in the Fed as a living institution. There is no late professional life confession pointing to a better way forward. The author gives a blow-by-blow account of his actions as top monetary bureaucrat and the justifications. But he gives no ground in his refusal to recognize the malaise of monetary inflation, or how in time it produces the symptoms of goods inflation and asset inflation. Bernanke does not pass harsh criticism on any past chair of the Fed, and one senses that the author as historian is straining to sustain the reputation of the Fed rather than to discover what actually happened.
Book Review: Red Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China
Authors: Newman Patrick
Published: September 2022

Peter Schweizer’s _Red Handed_ argues that the Chinese government, politically connected businesses, and other influential entities have essentially bought out American elites. Schweizer calls this “elite capture,” which complements Rothbardian studies of cronyism and power elite analysis. Schweizer uncovers the clandestine connections and business dealings many Americans have with the Chinese government. His theory of elite capture is a valuable contribution to understanding the relationship between economic elites and special interests.
Spatial Suitability Analysis for Identification of Best Sites for Collecting Photovoltaic Energy in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia using Boolean Model
Authors: Almutlaq Fahad
Published: September 2022

Solar energy is one of the renewable energy sources that can be tapped and is an inexhaustible source. The aim of study to identify suitable locations for collecting photovoltaic energy in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia base on Boolean models. The study used several data sources from official authorities and open-source websites which divided to three criteria: topographic, climatic, and economic. The data are Photovoltaic energy, temperature, slope, sand dune locations, distance from major cities, road network, and power network. The results showed that the amount of Photovoltaic energy is suitable in Saudi Arabia, but the levels of the amount are difference from area to another. The topographical criteria had a negative impact, especially with sand dune areas and slope degree on the western and middle regions of Saudi Arabia. Moreover, the economic factor had a negative impact on the northern and southern regions of Saudi Arabia, because the density of the road network and the power network. In addition, the result showed the total area suitable of Photovoltaic energy about (285,560 km²), and the best areas are: Hail, Makkah, Madinah, Al Jawf, Tabuk, Riyadh, Qassim and Asir regions, with a total area around (202,534 km²). Finally, the study found that the northern regions of Saudi Arabia are considered promising areas in generating solar energy, but needs to increase the road network and power lines network.

Authors: Torki Bani Salameh Mohammed , M. Almomani Hassan , Hassan Ruba
Published: September 2022

The study aimed to introduce the concept of Arab national security, its elements and challenges facing it, and to identify regional threats and their role in influencing Arab national security. The study assumed the existence of a positive direct relationship between the absence of the concept of Arab national security and the increase in regional threats to Arab countries. The study was based on the approach of analyzing international systems, with the aim of revealing the internal nature of regional international relations in the Arab regional system, the interactions that take place within the region’s structure, and the behavior of the region’s countries towards those interactions. The study concluded that concept of Arab collective security continued to face ambiguity in its definition and specification of its aspects, and its components. The source of this confusion is the fragmentation of Arab countries, and the growing national dimension over the collective dimension, as most Arab countries stipulate in their constitutions that protecting national security takes precedence over any other duty or function of the state .Many Arab countries resort to their national interests at the expense of the Arab collective interest in the event of the crises they face, in addition to the disagreements of Arab countries between each other, especially after Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait in 1990

Authors: Raouf Kaouache , Reda Bougherza
Published: September 2022

This study aims to compare the economic adaptations of Malian and Syrian emigrants living outside of government shelters in Algeria, and its association with their personal and occupational characteristics. Data were collected using Semi-directed interviews with 127 emigrants living in urban areas for a period of nine months (from April to December 2016). In addition, the analysis is based on the Montgomery model, which includes monthly income, best monthly pay, average hours of work per month, average monthly work per year and the number of appliances they own at home.The results show that emigrants from Syria have higher net wages and incomes, work longer days, and hold more appliances than Malian emigrants. Meanwhile, the number of working months is similar for both. Moreover, the findings indicate that Syrian men are more preferred than Malians at work. In addition, findings reveal that there is no significant difference between genders to obtain a job. According to evidences, Syrian emigrants with low education and self-employment are expected to face difficult economic adaptation. The results should help policy makers to make suitable decisions that push to raise the emigrants’ economic adaptation levels in Algeria.

Published: September 2022

Aiming at the problems of low efficiency, and low degree of mechanization of artificial soil clearing and considering that grapevines are easy to be damaged in northern China, a brush roll grapevine cold-proof soil clearing device suitable for removing soil in northern grape planting areas is studied and designed. The machine is mainly composed of a suspension device, soil removing device, hydraulic control system, telescopic device, etc. In this paper, a brush roll grapevine cold-proof soil clearing device was fabricated to investigate critical parameters such as rotation rate of soil removing device, brush spacing, and brush wire length on the machine performance. The three-factor and three-level quadratic regression orthogonal tests were carried out with the rotation rate of soil removing device, brush spacing, and brush wire length were taken as experimental factors and the soil removal rate and soil clearing distance were used as the evaluation indexes of soil clearing effect. The results show that the influence order of three factors on the soil removal rate was: rotation rate of soil removing device > brush spacing > brush wire length. The order of influence on the soil clearing distance was: rotation rate of soil removing device > brush wire length > brush spacing. The results show that when the rotation rate of the soil removing device was 248.71 r/min, brush spacing was 18.84 mm and brush wire length was 329.3 mm, the soil removal rate was 91.62% and the soil clearing distance was 11.63 cm. The relative error between the experimental verification value and the theoretical optimization value is less than 4%. This study provides the theoretical basis for the development of other types of grapevine coldproof soil clearing devices.

O projeto de construção da Usina Hidrelétrica de Belo Monte foi caracterizado, desde o início de sua formulação, pela discricionariedade em torno de sua implementação e questionamentos sobre sua viabilidade. Desse modo, este artigo tem como objetivo  compreender como a construção da Usina Hidrelétrica de Belo Monte operou de modo a expandir o capital para a Amazônia brasileira por meio de políticas estatais, tornando o Estado aliado da expansão capitalista, degradação ambiental e da destruição dos modos de vida dos povos indígenas, ribeirinhos e da população local. Assim, perpassa-se inicialmente a análise do papel do Estado no sistema capitalista e o posicionamento do Estado brasileiro perante a Amazônia. Em segundo momento, busca-se compreender a atuação do Estado na degradação ambiental no território amazônico, especialmente durante os períodos da ditadura empresarial-militar e nos governos do Partido dos Trabalhadores (2002-2016). Por fim, procura-se compreender a construção de Belo Monte a partir do papel de protagonismo do Estado e da destruição do meio ambiente natural e social amazônico, o que é realizado através de análise de fontes primárias, como relatórios do PAC, e secundárias. Conclui-se que o processo envolveu a pilhagem, a degradação ambiental, controle do território e violência sistemática, auxiliando na expansão do capital.

Avalanche-mode Si light-emitting transistor for narrow-band emission near 760 nm
Authors: Dutta Satadal , Hueting Raymond , Verbiest Gerard J.
Published: September 2022

We report an avalanche-mode light-emitting transistor (AMLET) in silicon (Si), based on a lateral bipolar junction, which emits light near 760 nm optical wavelength with a record low bandwidth of 38 nm. The AMLET, designed in a CMOS-compatible silicon-on-insulator (SOI) photonics platform, is optically confined within a 0.21 μm thick SOI layer, which forms a Fabry-Perot (FP) resonator perpendicular to the Si surface. Light is emitted from the reverse biased emitter-base junction via phonon-assisted hot carrier recombination and, additionally, minority carriers are injected via the forward-biased Base-Collector junction. The combination of injection from collector terminal through a narrow base and FP optical resonance, yields a high optical power efficiency of 4.3×10−6 at VBC = 0.8 V and VEB = 10 V. Our work opens new possibilities in spectralengineering of Si light-emitters, which could boost performance of all-Si optical interconnects and sensors.
Two-Dimensional Elliptically Shaped Electromagnetic Vibration Energy Harvester
Authors: Imbaquingo Munoz Carlos Enrique , Bahl Christian , Insinga Andrea Roberto , Bjørk Rasmus
Published: September 2022

An elliptically shaped electromagnetic vibration energy harvester is presented for two- and one-dimensional motions with the easy tuning of the resonance frequency. The harvester consists of a free-to-move ring-shaped permanent magnet with radial magnetization, a set of cube magnets distributed elliptically in a fixed holder, and two coil windings located above and below the harvester. When the device is exposed to vibrations, the free-to-move ring magnet moves until the magnetic restoring force from the fixed cube magnets pushes it back while inducing an electromagnetic force on the fixed coils. The performance of the device is characterized using an XY-shaker, whose frequency is swept from 1 Hz to 10 Hz with motion amplitudes of 2 mm and 4 mm on both axes simultaneously. Unlike 1-D harvesters, the resulting output power shows two resonant frequencies at 4.5 Hz and 7 Hz, at which the harvester can generate around 1.5 mW. The device also displays a nonlinear hardening resonator behaviour. Finally, 1D vibration experimental results show that the output power of the prototype depends on its angular position with respect to the motion direction of the vibration source, reaching a maximum at an angular position of 45 degree.
Hephaestus: Modelling, Analysis, and Performance Evaluation of Cross-Chain Transactions
Authors: Belchior Rafael , Somogyvari Peter , Pfannschmid Jonas , Vasconcelos André , Correia Miguel
Published: September 2022

Ecosystems of multiple blockchains are now a reality. Multi-chain applications and protocols are perceived as necessary to enable scalability, privacy, and composability. Despite being a promising emerging area, we have been witnessing devastating attacks on cross-chain bridges that have caused billions of dollars in losses, and no apparent solution seems to emerge from the ongoing chaos. In this paper, we present our contribution to minimizing bridge attacks, by monitoring a cross-chain model. In particular, we aggregate cross-chain events into cross-chain transactions, and verify if they follow a set of cross-chain rules, which then generate a model.

We propose Hephaestus, the first cross-chain model generator that captures the operational complexity of cross-chain applications. Hephaestus can generate cross-chain models from local transactions in different ledgers, realizing arbitrary cross-chain use cases and allowing operators to monitor their applications. Monitoring helps identify outliers and malicious behavior, which can enable programmatically stopping attacks (``a circuit breaker''), including bridge hacks. 

We conduct a detailed evaluation of our system, where we implement a cross-chain bridge use case. Our experimental results show that Hephaestus can process 600 cross-chain transactions in less than 5.5 seconds in an environment with two blockchains using sublinear storage, paving the way for more resilient bridge designs.

Published: September 2022

In this research, we collected 70,000 COVID–19 vaccine-related geotagged Twitter posts from nine African countries. The duration is from December 2020 to February 2022. We used VADER to classify the tweets into three sentiment classes (positive, negative, and neutral). The outputs were validated using machine learning classification algorithms, including, Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machines, Decision Tree, and K-Nearest Neighbour. We identified hotspots by clustering the sentiment of these tweets using the point-based location technique. These hotspots were visualised on the map using ArcGIS Online. On the map, we used green to represent positive sentiment dominance, red to represent negative sentiment dominance, and grey to represent neutral sentiment dominance. The outcome of this research shows that social media data can be used to complement existing data in identifying hotspots during future outbreaks, especially in the areas where there is little or no available data. It can also be used to inform health policy in managing vaccine hesitancy.
Assessment of laparoscopic skills: comparing the reliability of global rating and entrustability tools
Authors: Alibhai Kameela , Fowler Amanda , Gawad Nada , Wood Timothy J , Raîche Isabelle
Published: September 2022

Background: Competence by design (CBD) residency programs increasingly depend on tools that provide reliable assessments, require minimal rater training, and measure progression through the CBD milestones. To assess intraoperative skills, global rating scales and entrustability ratings are commonly used but may require extensive training.  The Competency Continuum (CC) is a CBD framework that may be used as an assessment tool to assess laparoscopic skills. The study aimed to compare the CC to two other assessment tools: the Global Operative Assessment of Laparoscopic Skills (GOALS) and the Zwisch scale.
Methods: Four expert surgeons rated thirty laparoscopic cholecystectomy videos. Two raters used the GOALS scale while the remaining two raters used both the Zwisch scale and CC. Each rater received scale-specific training. Descriptive statistics, inter-rater reliabilities (IRR), and Pearson’s correlations were calculated for each scale.
Results: Significant positive correlations between GOALS and Zwisch (r = 0.75, p < 0.001), CC and GOALS (r = 0.79, p < 0.001), and CC and Zwisch (r = 0.90, p < 0.001) were found. The CC had an inter-rater reliability of 0.74 whereas the GOALS and Zwisch scales had inter-rater reliabilities of 0.44 and 0.43, respectively. Compared to GOALS and Zwisch scales, the CC had the highest inter-rater reliability and required minimal rater training to achieve reliable scores.
Conclusion: The CC may be a reliable tool to assess intraoperative laparoscopic skills and provide trainees with formative feedback relevant to the CBD milestones. Further research should collect further validity evidence for the use of the CC as an independent assessment tool.

Investment using the capital market is one of the investments that are in demand by every country. By maintaining a stable political condition and currency value, it can indirectly make investments in a country last longer. The same is the case with the economic conditions in Indonesia during the covid-19 pandemic. Indonesia is really struggling how to maintain the country’s economic conditions so that it continues to run during the pandemic which generally make people’s lives and economy decline. One of the conditions that describe this economic condition can be seen from the inflation rate and also the rupiah exchange rate to us dollar. The purpose of this study is to analize the effect on inflation and also the value of the US dollar exchange rate on the stock price of an Islamic Banking. Where in this study will conduct research on BRI Syariah which has long existed in the Islamic Capital Market (Jakarta Islamic Index). This study intends to examine the effect of inflation and the rupiah exchange rate to US dollar on the stock price of BRI Syariah. The method used  is the Uji Classic assumtion test, including the Normality test, multicollinearity test, Autocorrelation test and heteroscedasticity test. Meanwhile, in analyzing the data using SPSS 21, the resulths of multiple linier regression where obtained because the significance value was 0,00 which is smaller than 0,05. This means that inflation (X1) has an effect on the stock price (Y) of BRI Syariah while the significance value of the US Dollar Exchange (X2) 0,202 > 0,05, this means that the US Dollar Exchannge rate has no effect on the stock price of BRI Syariah (Y).

Published: September 2022

Intrusion detection is one of the fundamental parts of a security tool, such as adaptive security tools, intrusion detection systems, intrusion prevention systems and firewalls. There are various kinds of intrusion detection techniques used, the main problem of this intrusion technique is the performance problem. The accuracy of the intrusion detection technique greatly affects its performance, which needs to be improved to reduce the false alarm rate and increase the detection rate. In solving performance problems, multilayer perceptron, support vector machine (SVM), and other techniques have been used recently. This technique shows limitations and is inefficient for use in large data sets, such as system and network data. Intrusion detection systems are used in analyzing a very large data traffic; thus, an efficient classification technique is needed to overcome these problems. This issue is considered in this paper. The well-known machine learning techniques, namely, SVM, random forest, and extreme machine learning will be applied. These techniques are well known for their ability to classify. NSL knowledge discovery and data mining datasets were used, which were considered as benchmarks in the evaluation of intrusion detection mechanisms. The results show that ELM outperforms other approaches. Utilization of Firebase Cloud Messaging because it can work with multiple platforms in addition to the availability of a file store that can store all logs created by the JALA application.

Authors: Akmalia Hafidha Asni
Published: September 2022

Agriculture in a time of climate change is very wary of various countries in the world because it can threaten food security. Indonesia faces this problem based on data and reported news. This paper aims to provide some information about the potential threats of climate change towards crop production in Indonesia to initiate innovations that can be done to maximize crop production amid climate change. We compile this literature review to develop thoughts related to adaptation strategies undertaken to maximize the productivity of food crops under climate change, especially in Indonesia. Several studies that were reviewed showed that there was a decrease in food crop production due to factors in the environment that were changing because of climate change. Therefore, the provided strategy is an example that can be applied and developed to maintain national food productivity. Continued research is needed to provide other plans that are integrated with existing strategies.

Bu doğrultuda toplam 14 futbol kulübünün 2010-2022 yılları arasında 5 milyon Avroya eşit veya üzerinde olan toplam 394 futbolcu transfer duyurusu analize dâhil edilmiştir. Çalışmada hisse senetlerine yatırımcıların tepkisini ölçmek için olay çalışması (event study) yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Bu doğrultuda toplam 11 farklı olay penceresinde birikimli ortalama olağanüstü getiriler (CAAR) hesaplanmıştır. Literatürdeki çalışmalardan farklı olarak, CAAR değerleri parametrik ve parametrik olmayan test istatistiklerine göre değerlendirilmiştir. CAAR değerleri bazı takımlar için transfer sayılarına ve büyüklüklerine göre üç farklı grupta, bazı takımlar için bir ve iki farklı grupta hesaplanmıştır. Analiz sonuçları her futbol kulübünün transfer duyurusuna yatırımcıların karışık (negatif veya pozitif) tepkiler verdiğini doğrulamaktadır.

Bir ülkenin gelişmişlik düzeyi o ülkenin eğitim düzeyi ile yakın ilişki içerisindedir. Eğitim ülkelerin gerek ekonomik gerekse sosyal açıdan gelişmesine katkı sunmaktadır. Günümüzde mal ve hizmet üretiminde yaşanan hızlı değişime uyum sağlama kapsamında eğitimin ve eğitime yapılacak harcamaların önemi artmaktadır. Eğitim harcamaları kısa dönemde cari nitelikli bir harcama kalemi iken uzun dönemde yatırım niteliğinde bir harcama kalemine dönüşmektedir. Bu niteliğinden dolayı eğitim harcamaları kalkınma carileri olarak adlandırılmaktadır. Eğitim, yarı kamusal mal ve hizmet olarak hem kamu kesimi hem de özel kesim tarafından sunulabilen bir hizmet özelliği taşımaktadır. Eğitim hizmeti, sunulduğunda toplumsal faydası bireysel faydasından büyük sunulmadığında ise toplumsal maliyeti bireysel maliyetinden daha yüksek olmaktadır. Bu özelliğinden dolayı eğitim hizmetinin etkin olarak sunumu kamu tarafından gerçekleştirilmektedir. Bu nedenlerden dolayı kamu tarafından yapılan eğitim harcamaları önem arz etmektedir. Bu kapsamda çalışmada Türkiye’nin 1990-2020 dönemine ait yıllık veriler kullanılarak kamu eğitim harcamaları ile ekonomik büyüme arasında uzun dönemli bir ilişkinin olup olmadığı sınır (ARDL) testi ile araştırılmıştır. Test sonucundan elde edilen bulgulara göre söz konusu iki değişken arasında uzun dönemli bir eşbütünleşme ilişkisinin olduğu ve kamu eğitim harcamalarındaki artışın ekonomik büyümeyi pozitif olarak etkilediği tespit edilmiştir. Diğer bir ifadeyle kamu eğitim harcamalarında meydana gelecek %1’lik bir artışın ekonomik büyümeyi %0,74 oranında artırdığı görülmektedir.
