Background. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is an effective method for bone mineral density (BMD) and subcutaneous fat percentage estimation. The constant development of new densitometry techniques, the demographic change and the higher potential of artificial intelligence in healthcare enhance requirements for the high-quality measurements in DXA.
This study aimed to develop a quality control method for DXA scanners and compare four DXA systems with different X-ray geometries and manufacturers when simulating fat-water environments.
Methods. We evaluated the accuracy (relative error (%) and precision (CV%)) of the bone mineral density (BMD) measurements, performed by the four DXA scanners: 2 with narrow-angle fan beam (64- and 16-channel detectors (DXA-1, DXA-2)); 1 with wide-angle fan beam (DXA-3); 1 with pencil beam (DXA-4). We used a PHK (PHantom Kalium) designed to imitate spine. The PHK contained four vertebras filled with a K2HPO4 solution in various concentrations (50-200 mg/ml). The PHK also included paraffin patches (thickness 40 mm) to simulate the fat layer.
Results. DXA-1 and DXA-2 demonstrated the best CV% ranged from 0.56% to 1.05%. The least % was observed when scanning PHK with fat layer on DXA-1 and DXA-2 (1.74% and 0.85%) and DXA-4 (1.47%). DXA-3 produced significantly lower BMD ( = -14.56%, p = 0.000). After removing the fat layer, we observed reduction (p = 0.000) of BMD for DXA- 1 and DXA-2 ( = -5.11% and -6.12% respectively) and weak deviation (p = 0.80) for DXA-4 (0.87%). For DXA-3, removal of the fat layer also resulted in a significant reduction in BMD ( = -16.44%, p = 0.000). The subcutaneous fat modeling showed that all these DXA systems automatically determine the percentage of fat in the scanned area with weak underestimation: for DXA-1, DXA-2 and DXA-4 the % were -5,9%, -6,3% and -2,3% respectively. CV% were 0.15%; 0.39%; 1.6%, respectively.
Conclusions. We proved a significant underestimation of the BMD measurements across the entire range of simulated parameters for the DXA scanners when the model did not include the subcutaneous fat layer. All models demonstrated high accuracy in measuring the fat layer, with the exception of the DXA-3 model, which was not assessed in these studies.

BACKGROUND: Reactions of human cardiovascular system to complex dynamic postural loads were under investigation by previous authors. Individual limiting mode of postural loads, i.e. alternating negative-positive periodic changes of body position angle on tilting table with regard to clinostatic position, was defined. It was demonstrated that application of oscillatory passive dynamic postural loads can cause certain hemodynamic reactions, which expression depend on postural loads dynamic characteristics and subjects primary state.
AIM: Aim of the study is to develop comprehensive methodology (practice) that explores regulation mechanisms of cardiovascular, respiratory, central and autonomic nervous systems and their reactions to physiological strains with assigned properties (intensity, direction, periodicity and duration of postural loads).
MATERIALS AND METHODS: 30 young healthy participants took part in the study. Physiological indicators were registered in dynamic mode synchronously with trajectory of participants motion. This study implemented common statistical methods as much as original means of analysis by integrating theory of dynamic systems.
RESULTS: Evaluation of synchronously registered physiological indicators by means of instrumental and software application, in particular, postural loads protocols of various intensity and motion direction, showed that oscillatory passive dynamic postural mode allows considerable improvements in overall blood circulation and gas exchange in the lungs. These changes constitute in a rise of systemic and local blood flow without significant shift of arterial pressure, increased frequency of heartbeats and respiratory rate.
CONCLUSIONS: Continuous monitoring of participants condition during complex postural loads give an opportunity for studying a set of physiological reactions and has a future implication in scientifically approved recommendations that describe practical use of postural loads as a correction technology for human health state and training.

The Qur’an has many miraculous aspects, about which there has been much talk in the past and the present. It is related to the rhetorical and linguistic aspects, and this research comes as one of these episodes that reveal the secret of the uniqueness of the words of the Holy Qur’an in general and the uniqueness of its words in particular, which came in an unprecedented manner and was organized in a non-repetitive way between the folds of its verses, so it was distinguished and unique in that it was not repeated, even its root as well. So it was consistent with the splendor of its presentation and organized in its context, in a tight linguistic system from a wise expert, and to be specific, the research was limited only to the unique words of animals and insects that were mentioned in the entire Qur’an, using the integrative approach that mixes the historical method that traces the phenomenon to the origin of its origin, and from the first to launch it and use it through the times to what it has now settled, and the linguistic analytical method, which is useful in analyzing words linguistically to understand the meaning, then the descriptive method, which monitors the characteristics of the phenomenon and its features, then clarifying this uniqueness, its rhetorical effects, and its aesthetic value. Its graphic secret is a purely artistic work that falls under the artistic method. Accordingly, the study came in three main sections and a conclusion, accompanied by the sources and references of the research. The first of them: the definition of the uniques linguistically and idiomatically, the second: the uniqueness in the critical and rhetorical heritage, and the third: the uniqueness of animals and insects in the Qur’an. Perhaps with this we add a new twist to Qur’anic studies, in fulfillment of the Qur’an, and in enriching its language.

Grandmothers and the Gender Gap in the Mexican Labor Market
Authors: Talamas Marcos Miguel Ángel
Published: April 2022

This paper estimates the effect of childcare availability on parents' employment probability using the timing of death of grandmothers--the primary childcare providers in Mexico--as identifying variation. I use a triple-difference to disentangle the effect of coinhabiting grandmothers' deaths due to their impact on childcare from their effects due to alternative mechanisms. Through their impact on childcare availability, grandmothers' deaths reduce mothers' employment rate by 12 percentage points (27 percent) and do not affect fathers' employment rate. The negative effect on mothers' employment is smaller where public daycare is more available, or private daycare or schools are more affordable.

Published: April 2022

In this paper, the organic geochemistry of Upper Eocene-Oligocene Pabdeh Formation, in northern Dezful Embayment, SW Iran, was studied using combination of geochemical measurements including Rock-Eval pyrolysis, Gas Chromatography and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry. A total of 14 shale samples of Pabdeh Formation were obtained from 14 wells in 11 oil fields in Dezful Embayment. The results show that most of the analyzed samples of the Pabdeh Formation have total organic carbon (TOC) content more than one percent. High TOC values and low volatile hydrocarbons (S1) content in the analyzed samples indicate that the hydrocarbons are autochthonous. On the basis of the plot of S1+S2 versus TOC, the Pabdeh Formation can be classified as fair to excellent source rock. Based on the binary plot of HI against OI, kerogen in the Pabdeh Formation belongs to type II. In terms of maturity, the pyrolysis results also show that, the studied Pabdeh samples are in the immature and early mature stages.A comparison of the obtained data with the previous data on Pabdeh Formation in the southern parts of Dezful Embayment shows the difference in the characteristics of this formation so that in the southern parts the average TOC is less and kerogen type II and III have been reported. GC and GC-MS data confirm the presence of predominantly marine organic matter and less continental input. These results also show that the maturity of samples of Pabdeh Formation is more than what was determined by pyrolysis results.

Published: April 2022

On the western part of the Valles–San Luis Potosí Platform located in Cerro Quemado near Temazcal, municipality of Armadillo de Los Infante, two sequences crop out. The lower one is the shallow-water El Abra Formation of the mid–upper Cenomanian, unconformably covered by a deep-water deposit of the upper Maastrichtian informally called here the “Temazcal unit.” The succession presents a nonconforming contact between these two sedimentary units, displaying a hiatus as the result of a time of non-deposition in the sedimentary record, showing a subaerial exposure with erosion yielding topographic relief. Based on the lithological changes from the underlying limestone toward the overlying silty limestone, as well as a detailed biostratigraphic study based on foraminiferal associations that provide an accurate dating, it has been possible to estimate the magnitude of the hiatus, which spans from the lower part of the Turonian, including the Coniacian, the Santonian, and possibly the lower part of the Maastrichtian.

Authors: Sharir Kamilia , Roslee Rodeano
Published: April 2022

The flood is one of the most devastating natural disasters to strike Sabah, Malaysia, especially in the Kota Belud region. The Flood Susceptibility Analysis (FSA) was described using bivariate statistical analysis (the Frequency Ratio model) based on a Geographical Information System (GIS). Field surveys and formal reports from local authorities in the study area created the flood inventory map. The training dataset for statistical analysis consisted of 100 flood locations inundated in 2017, while the validation dataset consisted of 54 flood locations from the 2016 flood report. Eight (8) parameters (elevation, slope curvature, slope angle, topography wetness index, drainage density, drainage proximity, land use, and soil type) were extracted from the database and then converted into a raster format with a cell size of 5m x 5m. Finally, using the natural break classification method, the FSA was generated and classified into five classes: very low, low, moderate, high, and very high susceptibility. The area under the curve (AUC) analysis validated the flood susceptibility model's accuracy. The success rate AUC was calculated to be 0.89, while the prediction rate AUC was 0.82. The flood susceptibility analysis could be used to develop flood mitigation strategies in land use planning.

One of the indicators in achieving the goal of sustainable forest management is maintaining forest health. Forest health can describe the good and bad conditions of forest management. Management is carried out based on the functions owned by the forest. With these different managements, there is a need to assess and map the current state of forest health across various parts. This study aimed to obtain values of forest health status in each plot for different forest functions and generate a cluster map of forest health status in other forest functions. This study was on three types of forest based on their functions: conservation forest, production forest, and protection in Lampung Province. The method used is the Forest Health Monitoring (FHM). Method to determine the health of forests using indicators of vitality, productivity, and biodiversity and using Web-GIS to create a map of the distribution of cluster plots. The sample plot used is in the form of cluster plots, with the number of each forest function is divided into 3 clusters whose status is categorized as good, moderate, and bad. Based on the research, it was found that the protected forest cluster 1 had bad health status, cluster 2 was good, and cluster 3 was moderate. The overall health condition of the production function is bad, and the forest health status of the conservation forest function is all good. The current distribution map of the forest's sanitary conditions for the three localities helps guide management decisions to be made soon. The conclusion obtained from this study is that existing forest functions influence forest health status because forest management is adjusted to forest functions so that each function has a different status of forest health conditions.

Authors: Fadhil Rahmat , Sulaiman Muhammad Ikhsan , Farhan Muhammad Rizki
Published: April 2022

Currently, processed coffee products with the addition of nutritious ingredients such as herbs are experiencing rapid development. Various herbal mixtures can produce delicious coffee, but consumer acceptance varies due to the sometimes-inconsistent brewing composition between coffee and the blending ingredients. Therefore, this research aims to determine the best decision-making system for accepting the Gayo Arabica coffee brewed product with a mixture of herbs using the MOORA method. There were 5 products analyzed, namely cuminpresso, olivepresso, kurmapresso, karipresso, and honeypresso. Furthermore, 30 ml espresso was used as the mixture base with the addition of 5 ml, 7 ml, and 10 ml of herbs for each product. The results showed that the panelists had different acceptance levels for each type of brewing. Therefore, the alternatives were obtained such that cuminpresso attained an acceptable level with the addition of 5 ml of black cumin oil, olivepresso with the addition of 5 ml of olive oil, kurmapresso with the addition of 10 ml of dates, karipresso with the addition of 5 ml of boiled water from curry leaves and honeypresso with the addition of 7 ml of honey.

The intake of ethanol extract and flavonoid glycoside extract at a dose of 50 mg / Kg BW significantly lower MDA levels (p < 0.05), and can prevent oxidative stress through SOD in Wistar rat kidneys.
Classification of crimes related to forgery of document
Authors: Balandin V. I.
Published: April 2022

The article is devoted to the consideration of various grounds for classifying crimes related to forgery of documents, based on the content of the norms of the current criminal legislation on the relevant crimes. In view of the absence of a systematized conceptual apparatus, numerous legal terms and constructions for describing crimes related to forgery of documents are analyzed. The analysis of criminal law norms allows us to conclude that there is a common object of encroachment for the crimes under consideration, which is public relations arising in connection with the established procedure for the legal circulation of documents. In order to differentiate criminal liability for forgery on the basis of the presence of common and different signs of the elements of crimes, general and special forgeries should be distinguished, depending on the source of origin of forged documents and the ability of documents to consolidate various legally significant facts. The conclusion is made about the inadmissibility of using synonymous terms falsification, forgery, forgery to define one legal category. We consider it preferable to use the phrase forgery of documents as a separate, independent, and semantically most fully reflecting the essence of such crimes.
Network form of realization of universities’ educational programs: has a certainty appeared?
Authors: Sheveleva N. A. , Vasilyev I. A.
Published: April 2022

In the article, the authors consider the latest by-law regulation of the institute of the network form of the implementation of educational programs in the higher education system of Russia. Despite the emergence of normative certainty on several issues, there are still quite ambiguous provisions. Thanks to this study, key ones have been identified and commented on. The popularity of the network form among universities is still relatively low. The authors have systematized several topical reasons for the conclusion of agreements on the network form by universities. Qualitative changes in the popularity of the online form can occur both thanks to new state programs (Priority-2030) and the renewal of development programs for leading Russian universities (for example, St. Petersburg State University). A separate issue is proposed at the sub-legal level as an approximate form of an agreement on the network form. The authors see the legal nature of such an agreement as undoubtedly administrative. But the conclusion of the agreement is accompanied by many nuances discussed in the article, and which must be kept in mind by universities. After the study, the authors highlighted priority issues for continuing to give the network form the expected normative certainty.
About improving the concept of completed crime
Authors: Blagov E. V.
Published: April 2022

The article is devoted to the search for signs that make it possible to unconditionally distinguish a completed crime from an unfinished one, on the basis of which it is possible to formulate a definition of a completed crime. Having considered the provisions of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation on completed and unfinished crimes, the author concludes that the normative definition of a completed crime does not correspond to the concept of a crime and is not interrelated with the concept of an unfinished crime. The author emphasizes that the basis of criminal liability enshrined in this Code applies to both completed and unfinished crimes. The article proves that the signs of an unfinished crime are: committed a socially dangerous act, bringing it to an end, full foresight of the signs of the corpus delicti established by the Special Part of the Criminal Code, direct intent. Accordingly, a completed crime is recognized as a socially dangerous act committed with direct intent and completed, fully provided for by the signs of the corpus delicti established by the Special Part of the Criminal Code.

Published: April 2022

The article examines the features of international terrorism in the modern period. Terrorist attacks, with appropriate signs, belong to international crimes against humanity. It is recognized that in the conditions of digitalization of society, crimes, including terrorism, are increasingly being carried out in a new way in the form of the use of digital technologies. The regulatory framework for bringing to criminal responsibility for terrorist crimes with the use of computer technology under the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation has been determined. The question of the public danger of terrorist attacks, dynamically committed using digital technologies both at the international and national levels, is being investigated. The author substantiates the conclusion that the introduction of increased liability in the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation for the use of a digital method of committing terrorist crimes is necessary only in situations of urgent threat of death of people, causing significant property damage, the onset of other grave consequences.
Problems of exemption from punishment due to a change in the situation
Authors: Nurkaeva T. N.
Published: April 2022

The article offers a scientific justification of the norms of Article 80/1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, examines some problems that arise when a convicted person is released from punishment due to a change in the situation, and identifies ways to solve them. The opinion is defended that the change in the public danger of a person cannot be assessed without the relationship with the crime committed. It is also argued that the category of the crime committed, as well as the establishment of the fact: whether the crime was committed for the first time or not, are in no way connected with a change in the situation and cannot by themselves affect the disappearance of the public danger of the crime or the person who committed it. The author of the article substantiates the conclusion that the change in the situation should be associated only with the loss of the public danger of the crime committed earlier.
PARENTAL BELIEFS ABOUT THEIR CHILDREN’S EXPRESSION OF NEGATIVE EMOTIONS: REEXAMINING THE FACTORIAL STRUCTURE OF TWO MEASURES AND THEIR DISCRIMINANT VALIDITY
Authors: Carona Carlos , Moreira Helena , Fonseca Ana
Published: April 2022

The Display of Negative Emotions scale and The Social Consequences Of Negative Emotions scale are two understudied questionnaires that assess parents’ emotion beliefs about their children’s expression of negative emotions. Therefore, the aims of this study were to ascertain the factorial structure of both questionnaires, to reexamine the internal consistency of each instrument’s scales, and to assess the age- and gender-related discriminant validity of the measures. The two questionnaires were administered by a web-based survey to a sample of 253 Portuguese mothers with children of elementary school age (6–12 years). A two-factor solution (expression of submissive emotions, expression of dominant emotions) was preferred for the first questionnaire, and a single-factor solution emerged for the second questionnaire. Both measures revealed good internal consistency, but while the former was able to identify gender differences, the latter discriminated between age groups. The simultaneous use of these questionnaires is recommended for an informative assessment of parents’ beliefs about their children’s expression of negative emotions.
Chief Executive Officer Attributes and the Value of the Firm: Does Firm Size Play a Moderating Role?
Authors: IMASUEN Osasere Festus , OKORO Edesiri Godsday , YAHAYA Garba Hassan
Published: April 2022

This study seeks to (1) assess the relationship between CEO attributes and firm value, and (2) ascertain the moderating role of firm size in the relationship between CEO attributes and firm value, using a panel research design. This study identifies CEO tenure, CEO turnover, and CEO ownership as CEO attributes, Tobin's Q as a measure of firm value, and the natural logarithm of total assets as a measure of firm size. Data were sourced from the database of Machameratios for the period 2010 to 2019 and analyzed using fixed and random effects regression and structural equation modeling. First, the fixed and random effect result revealed that CEO tenure, turnover, and ownership negatively affect the value of the firm; however, the relationship was only significant for CEO tenure and ownership. Second, the structural equation modeling result showed that while firm size does not play a significant moderating role in the relationship between CEO tenure and turnover and firm value, a significant moderating (negative) effect was found for CEO ownership. The study recommends that since CEO turnover and tenure do not matter to the value of the firm, there is a need to ensure that a CEO’s term in office is not lengthened beyond what is required by tenure legislation, i.e., it should not exceed 4 years. In addition, for larger firms, CEO shareholding should be adequately managed to positively affect the value of the firm.

Authors: DEMİRCİ Burak , ÇALTILI Çilem , COŞKUN Abuzer
Published: April 2022

Objective: Early repolarization (ER) is a common finding in cases. It can be benign or malignant. We aimed to evaluate the effects of early repolarization morphology and electrocardiogram (ECG) findings on the clinic, prognosis, and mortality with angiography findings.

Method: This retrospective study included 442 patients who were admitted to the emergency department between January 2010 and December 2015 and had ER in their ECG. The patients were divided into two groups according to the horizontal and ascending ER morphology. According to the derivation, four groups were formed as inferior, inferolateral, anterior, and common. Besides, four groups were determined according to the angiography findings: left anterior descending (LAD), circumflex (Cx), right coronary artery (RCA), and normal.

Results: The average age of the patients in the study was 52.16±9.07 years and 260(58.8%) were male. Horizontal morphology was observed in 123(28%) of the patients and ascending morphology in 319(72%). Mortality was detected in 9(7.3%) of the horizontal group and 6(1.9%) of the ascending group (p=0.008). In the angiography results of the mortality group, 8(53.3%) patients had Cx, 4(26.7%) patients had RCA and 3(20%) patients had LAD occlusion. Angiography results of 318(74.5%) surviving patients were normal (p=0.001). Mortality; It had a strong positive correlation with family history, Brugada Syndrome, aVR ST-segment formation and the presence of syncope, and moderate positive correlation with gender, notch presence, QRS morphology in V1-2, and angiography results.

Conclusions: Early repolarization morphology may be a helpful finding for prognosis, mortality, and interventional angiography decisions.

Authors: Stewart Gail , Strachan Andrea
Published: April 2022

Since its implementation in 2004, the Canadian English Language Benchmark Assessment for Nurses (CELBAN) has been accepted as evidence of language ability for licensure of internationally educated nurses (IENs) in Canada. This article focuses on the complexities of sustaining an occupation-specific assessment over time. The authors reference the seminal work of Epp and Lewis, who developed the original CELBAN test forms and aligned the test results with the Canadian Language Benchmarks (CLB), and then go on to describe a research and development project that was carried out under the direction of Touchstone Institute and overseen by the Centre for Canadian Language Benchmarks (CCLB) to renew the test model and develop additional content. This is followed by a discussion of the maintenance strategies required to sustain a secure assessment within the evolving Canadian context.

Depuis sa mise en place en 2004, le Canadian English Language Benchmark Assessment for Nurses (CELBAN) a été accepté comme preuve de compétence linguistique pour l’obtention du permis d’exercer au Canada pour le personnel infirmier formé à l’étranger. Cet article porte sur les complexités liées au maintien d’une évaluation propre à une profession au fil du temps. Les auteurs font référence au travail précurseur d’Epp et Lewis qui ont mis au point les formulaires du test CELBAN original et aligné les résultats du test avec les niveaux de compétences linguistiques canadiens, ensuite ont décrit un projet de recherche et de développement qui s’est effectué sous la direction du Touchstone Institute et a été supervisé par le Centre des niveaux de compétence linguistique canadiens pour renouveler le modèle de test et mettre au point des contenus supplémentaires. Cet article est suivi d’une discussion des stratégies d’entretien nécessaires pour maintenir une évaluation sûre dans le contexte évolutif canadien.

Social media effects on perceptions of graduate students' entrepreneurial intentions
Authors: Laiq Ifrah
Published: April 2022

The main purpose of this research is to study the impact of perceived desirability and perceived feasibility on entrepreneurial intentions and also identify the difference in intentions of gender and the moderating impact of social media. For this quantitative research, a study survey was conducted in March 2021 in the universities of Pakistan. The target sample for the study was 500 including both male and female graduate students. The results of the study reveal the positive impact of perceived desirability and feasibility on entrepreneurial intentions. Both males and females are ambitious to start their own entrepreneurial ventures but there is a difference in intentions and the direct influence of social media is identified. The study is limited by its cross-sectional data and it is difficult to inspect the business intentions because such intentions are developed inside the people’s minds. It holds important implications for policymakers and educators to enhance self-efficacy and outcome expectations. The research took all three approaches of entrepreneurship into account for exploring the positive relation between perceptions and entrepreneurial intentions. By incorporation of social media variables into the study framework, it focuses on issues not presently discussed in the entrepreneurial literature. For future research, the study would suggest exploring the moderating role of other sociological and personal characteristics. The attitude of both genders toward entrepreneurship has remarkably changed and this independency because of social media can give them a better understanding of the practical world.
