Digitalization Risks and Their Management
Authors: Khalin V. G. , Chernova G. V. , Kalayda S. A.
Published: July 2024

Digitalization, as the most important trend in the modern development of the economy and society, can be accompanied by not only positive but also negative consequences. In order for it to have only a positive impact, it is necessary to fulfill the requirements that it presents to society in the form of the content of the challenges. In the case when these requirements are not met, there is a threat of negative consequences of the impact of digitalization, which are proposed to be described through risk. The article proposes to solve the problem of enhancing the positive and reducing the negative impact of digitalization on the activities of a certain subject and/or on the content of any object impacted by digitalization on the basis of the creation and implementation of a Comprehensive Digitalization Risk Management Program. It includes Program N 1 for managing risks caused by the impact of digitalization on a certain area of society; Program N 2 for managing risks caused by the use of main digitalization products; Cyber Risk Management Program N 3 or Information Risk Management Program N 4, of which Program N 3 is a part. Each of these programs contains 2 parts: part 1 contains management decisions developed independently, part 2 contains management decisions to implement the requirements of regulatory legal acts, as well as national and interstate standards that implement risk management of information security violations at the state, interstate or industry levels level.
The Phenomenon of Political Leadership: the Problem of Institutionalization of Public Power
Authors: Muratov A. V. , Fridman M. F.
Published: July 2024

This article is devoted to an important and urgent problem — the study of the phenomenon of political leadership, determining the optimal conditions for its formation as a political institution. In modern conditions, the layering of various cultural and historical paradigms directly related to the strategic development of key social institutions is very clearly manifested. On the one hand, researchers note the onset of a fundamentally new era for civilization — the information society, which has its own strategic guidelines and priority areas, on the other — the previous (industrial and agrarian) coexist in parallel, competing and inhibiting each other’s development. The onset of a new technological order does not cancel the expansion of the previous ones. That is why political leadership today attracts a lot of attention from political scientists, public politicians, and leading representatives of key social institutions.

The paper examines the history of the development of ideas about political leadership, analyzes the conceptual apparatus, identifies the essential features of this phenomenon. The analysis of the problem field, the criticism of existing approaches and the determination of prevailing trends indicate the reliability and thoroughness of the conducted research, emphasize its theoretical and practical significance.

The materials for the research were scientific sources in the public domain (books, monographs, textbooks, articles in peer-reviewed scientific journals; dissertations and abstracts; articles in the collection of materials of scientific and practical conferences, etc.), official mass media (websites, newspapers, magazines, television broadcasts), public statements senior officials, regulatory documents, results of public opinion research, expert assessments of leading political scientists, political technologists and consulting agencies.

The methods used are mostly theoretical: analysis of scientific texts, periodicals, public statements of officials, regulatory documents, results of public opinion research; comparison, comparison, extrapolation.

The result of the conducted research is the clarification of the concept of “political leadership”, the problematization of the dynamics of its formation and transformation into a political institution.

The results of the study were discussed at the meetings of the Department of Humanities of the Institute of Social Sciences and the Department of Economic Theory and Politics of the RANEPA under the President of the Russian Federation, as well as the A. A. Zinoviev International Scientific and Educational Center of the Faculty of Philosophy of Lomonosov Moscow State University.

Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are preventable and their risk factors can be controlled. However, most of the behaviors that are at risk of NCDs are often unaware of it. Based on preliminary studies on 259 students of the Public Health Science Study Program (Prodi IKM), it is known that students have never conducted basic routine examinations at least once a year (16.3%) and students do not know the concept of "CERDIK BEHAVIOR" (20.5%). This service aims to increase students' understanding of NCDs and determine the results of early detection of NCD risk. This community service program was carried out in the form of education on the importance of preventing and overcoming NCDs along with the detection of NCD risks, which was attended by 84 students of the public health science study program. Based on the pre-test results, the average reached 63% of correct questions, then increased to 74% in the post-test. Based on anthropometric data and blood pressure measurements, it is known that most have indications of normal body mass index (72.61%), thin (4.76%), very thin (5.95%), mild obesity (10.71%), and severe obesity (5.95%). In addition, most participants had normal blood pressure (64.29%), compared to pre-hypertension (27.38%), and grade 1 hypertension (8.33%). It is hoped that the examination of health conditions in S-1 SMI students will be carried out on an ongoing basis at least once every 6-12 months so that health status and efforts to improve it are known.

Published: July 2024

The Covid-19 pandemic has brought about changes in recent times, one of which impacts economic conditions. This study aims to investigate government policies through the National Economic Recovery (PEN) with a macroeconomic approach to the condition of economic resilience. Macroeconomic indicators use interest rates (IR), inflation, IHSG, money supply (MS), and tax revenues to see the effect on economic resilience, which consists of economic growth (GDP), unemployment, and poverty. The data used is a time series with an observation period from January 2017 to June 2021. The analytical method used is the Error Correction Model (ECM). The results show that the policy package through the National Economic Recovery (PEN) effectively overcame the economic downturn during the pandemic, although it is not yet fully optimal. At least policies based on fiscal and monetary can bring Indonesia's economic growth in a positive direction. So that in the long term, unemployment and poverty due to a decrease in people's purchasing power can be overcome.
British Scholar’s Perceptions on Capitalism and Religious Ethics In The Age of Techno-Feudalism
Authors: Mas'ud Abdurrahman , Said Nur , Ernada Sus Eko Zuhri
Published: July 2024

In a feudal system, land is the main source of wealth and power. Meanwhile, Techno-Feudalism holds the concentration of power and data wealth in the digital realm which has a significant impact on economic, social and political structures. This research discusses the dialectics of religious ethics, capitalism and Indonesian citizenship in the face of the rise of techno-feudalism from the perspective of British scholars' orientalism. This study uses a multi-faceted approach, combining interviews, content analysis and scientific publication studies to reveal the complex layers of how British intellectuals interpreted and engaged with the historical discourse of inter-religious interaction in Indonesia amidst the shift from feudalism to techno-feudalism. The challenges of Indonesian citizenship in global civility and the flow of capitalism are the center of attention in this research. This research shows that the complexity inherent in cross-cultural academic interactions demands the growth of different perspectives on citizenship and national identity amidst the rise of techno-feudalism that has taken over capitalism. In this position, the power of religious ethics is increasingly relevant, being put forward as a controlling force towards moderate citizenship and economic system. As a recommendation that techno-Feudalism holds the concentration of power and wealth in the digital realm, which in many ways is considered potentially dangerous, must be immediately addressed in the necessary ways to explore and depict a better future.
The Driving Factors of Customers' Intentions to Use Micro Waqf Bank Financing: A Behavioral and Religiosity Approach
Authors: Fauziah Fauziah , Hanis Rianda
Published: July 2024

Bank Waqaf Mikro (BWM) is a sharia-based microfinance institution whose existence is needed by the community. The basic concept of the BWM is to develop entrepreneurship among productive poor people. The BWM disburses financing which plays a very important role in encouraging the development of productive poor people's businesses. Due to the importance of the existence of the BWM, this research focuses on how to maintain the sustainability of this institution, by studying the contributor to the formation of customer intent to use BWM financing. This research uses the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) approach by involving the internal and external environment reflected in attitude/ATT, subjective norms/SN, and perceived behavioral control/PBC. In addition, this research involved the Religiosity variable (RG) as a moderating variable or reinforcement of each TPB variable. The results show that internal factors (attitude/ATT) influence customers to use financing services provided by the BWM. Meanwhile, external factors reflected in the perceived behavioral control or the ease of accessing the BWM financing products are important motivators for customers, supported by instilled religious values that can strengthen customer intent to use BWM financing products. Thus, the ATT and PBC variables have a positive and significant effect on customer intent (INT) with the RG variable proven to moderate (strengthen) the relationship between the ATT and the PBC variables.
Modeling and simulation of AC magnetic susceptibility in La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 manganites
Authors: Restrepo-parra Elisabeth , Barco Ríos Hector
Published: July 2024

In this study, a model for obtaining the AC magnetic susceptibility of La2/3Ca1/3MnO3 manganites was proposed. The samples were composed of a combination of Mn4+ and Mn3+ ions that influence the material stoichiometry. The model is based on the Hamiltonian, including the Heisenberg interaction and the Zeeman effect. For determining AC susceptibility, a time-dependent external magnetic field h(t) was applied to the sample. Several mathematical tools, such as Fourier transforms, were required for performing the simulations. The study was conducted for various angular frequencies and temperatures. The simulations were obtained using a graphic interface that allowed the online monitoring of the results. According to the results, the AC susceptibility decreases not only with the temperature, but also with the frequency

In this article, we introduce and investigate the q-Ces?ro matrix C(q) = (cq
uv) with q ? (0, 1) for which we have cq uv ={qv/[u + 1]q (0 ?
v ? u) 0 (v > u), where the q-number [?]q is given, as usual in the
q-theory, by [?]q := {1 ? q?/1 ? q (? ? C) ?n?1 k=0 qk = 1
+ q + q2 + ....+ qn?1 (? = n ? N), C and N being the sets of complex numbers
and positive integers, respectively. The q-Ces?ro matrix C(q) is a
q-analogue of the Ces?ro matrix C1. We study the sequence spaces Xq(p), Xq
0(p), Xq c (p) and Xq ?(p), which are obtained by the domain of the matrix
C(q) in the Maddox spaces ?(p), c0(p), c(p) and ??(p), respectively. We
derive the Schauder basis and the alpha-, beta- and gamma-duals of these
newly-defined spaces. Moreover, we state and prove several theorems
characterizing matrix transformation from the spaces Xq(p),Xq 0(p),Xq c(p)
and Xq ?(p) to anyone of the spaces c0, c or ??.

point theorems for proximal multi-valued contractions, Filomat, 35;6, (2021)
1889-1897] studied the existence of best proximity points for proximal
multi-valued contractions as well as proximal multi-valued nonexpansive
mappings in the framework of metric and Banach spaces, respectively. In this
paper we show that the well-known Nadler?s fixed point theoremimplies the
best proximity point results of such proximal multi-valued contractions and
nonexpansive non-self mappings. Moreover, in the case that the considered
non-self mapping is proximal multi-valued nonexpansive, we drop the
conditions of semi-sharp proximinality as well as q-starshepedness which
were assumed in a main result of aforementioned paper.

Published: July 2024

In this study, motivated by the Meta-Golden-Chi ratio, we develop essentially
Meta-Metallic manifolds by using Meta-Metallic-Chi ratio and Metallic
manifolds, provide an example and explore certain features of its
Meta-Metallic structure. We give the conditions for integrability of the
almost Meta-Metallic structure and examine its relation to the curvature
tensor field. We further demonstrate that the Meta-Metallic Riemannian
manifold is flat if and only if its curvature is constant. As a result, we
show that a different notion of sectional curvature is needed in
Meta-Metallic Riemannian manifolds.
Dynamics of change of climate conditions and extreme weather events in Serbia
Authors: Vukovic-Vimic Ana , Vujadinovic-Mandic Mirjam
Published: July 2024

Analysis of climate change in Serbia was done using the data available from
the Digital Climate Atlas of Serbia. It includes observed climate change and
future climate change projections according to scenarios of greenhouse gases
emissions, RCP4.5 and RCP8.5, until the end of 21st century, compared to the
reference period 1961-1990. According to the main climate change indicator,
change of average air temperature, climate change is accelerating. Results
showed that climate conditions in the mid-century period are known with high
reliability, while changes of climate conditions in the second half of the
century depend on reductions of global net emissions of greenhouse gases,
i.e. on the fulfillment of the Paris agreement. In this paper, the changes
in climate hazards are presented. They are of highest significance for risk
increase in health and safety and in agriculture. For the mid-century
period, an expected increase of average air temperature for Serbia is about
3.1?C. Expected frequency of extreme precipitation is at least once per
year. Each year is most likely expected to be a year with drought. Average
frequency of days per year, with temperatures above 35?C, for the territory
of Serbia, will be in the range of 9-13, compared to one day in the
reference period. In the paper the summary of climate change characteristics
in Serbia is also given, based on the presented results and results derived
from the literature, categorized into groups of climate hazards, which
cause: too warm conditions, too wet conditions, too dry conditions and
storms.
Priority measures of adaptation to climate change in the viticulture sector in Serbia
Authors: Rankovic-Vasic Zorica , Vukovic-Vimic Ana , Vujadinovic-Mandic Mirjam
Published: July 2024

Viticulture production, like the entire agriculture, is subject to climate
changes related to a significant increase in air temperature. High air
temperatures during the ripening period negatively affect the yield and
quality of grapes. Apart from the increase in air temperature, grape
production is also affected by rainfall and the frequency of extreme events.
Climate projections for the future predict a further increase in air
temperature and a change in the most important viticultural indices. The
analysis shows that there has been a change in the climate category
according to WI and HI values, and in some areas also CI. The Drought Index
(DI) does not show significant changes in the first two periods (2021- 2040;
2041-2060), in contrast to the increased frequency of droughts and the
extension of the duration of the dry period during the year. Since the most
significant risks in viticulture come from high temperatures during the
grape ripening period and from hail and stormy weather during the growing
season, appropriate adaptation measures are needed.
ChatGPT is Ready for the Profession—But is the Profession Ready for ChatGPT?
Authors: Ross Mark , Zhang James
Published: July 2024

SYNOPSIS

We investigate the accounting profession’s readiness for ChatGPT through a survey study of 136 practitioners and an interview with two experts. We find that accounting professionals are inexperienced with ChatGPT and use ChatGPT mostly for administrative tasks. However, they plan to use ChatGPT for more value-added tasks in the future. Leveraging a modified technology acceptance model (TAM), we find that perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and personal innovativeness are three factors encouraging ChatGPT adoption. However, perceived risk hinders adoption, whereas trust does not impact the adoption. We also find that organizational leaders have a stronger intention to use ChatGPT than lower-level employees. Compared with practitioners from other types of organizations, practitioners from public accounting firms exhibit stronger personal innovativeness toward using ChatGPT but also experience less positive attitude toward ChatGPT. We also provide an “interim scorecard” and other actionable insights that are of interest to both practitioners and academics.

The Influence of the Concurrent Use of Catha edulis Forsk (Khat) and Empagliflozin on Dexamethasone-Induced Hyperglycemia in Rabbits
Authors: NA Albaser
Published: July 2024

Background: Despite the abundance of reports highlighting the negative health consequences allied with Khat chewing, a considerable number of individuals worldwide, particularly in its countries of origin, persist in using Khat on a daily basis. This presents a significant risk of co-administering Khat and drugs, thereby increasing the likelihood of adverse interactions between Khat and drugs. Hence, it is imperative to evaluate the effects of simultaneous usage of Khat and drugs. The current study primarily focused on empagliflozin, a sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor that has emerged as a prominent treatment for Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) by targeting SGLT-2 in the kidney. Aim: The present study aimed to assess the impact of administering Khat and empagliflozin together on dexamethasoneinduced hyperglycemia in rabbits. Methods and Materials: Thirty adult male rabbits weighing between 1-1.3kg were randomly divided into six groups, each consisting of five rabbits. During two weeks, dexamethasone (10 mg/kg) was administered orally to four groups continuously to induce hyperglycemia. Group I, which served as the control, received normal saline. Group II, however, received a Khat dose (1500 mg/kg). Group III consisted of diabetic rabbits who remained untreated and only received normal saline in an equivalent dosage. The fourth, fifth, and sixth groups of animals were treated with daily oral doses of Khat (1500mg/kg), empagliflozin (10 mg/kg), and a combination of both, respectively, to treat dexamethasone-induced hyperglycemia for two weeks. At the end of the experiment, samples of blood were gathered in the morning after an overnight fasting period. Results: The study findings revealed that both Khat (p <0.00) and empagliflozin (p <0.00) monotherapy significantly reduced hyperglycemia and body weight. However, the combination of Khat and empagliflozin was found as the most effective, surpassing the effects of Khat alone. Conclusion: These findings suggest that the combination of empagliflozin and Khat had a greater efficacy in reducing fasting blood glucose levels in comparison with the ordinary control group. However, caution should be exercised as this may potentially lead to hypoglycemia in Khat chewers who are also using empagliflozin as a medication.
Assessment of Antibacterial Activity of Various Solvent Extracts of Dictyota Dichotoma Against Multidrug Resistant Bacterial Strain
Authors: G Adaikala Raj
Published: July 2024

In this research, investigate the antibacterial properties of various crude extracts obtained from the brown alga Dictyota dichotoma (Hudson) J.V.Lamouroux. Specifically, we analyzed the hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, and methanol extracts in detail to assess their effectiveness against a wide range of multidrug-resistant bacterial strains. These strains encompassed Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Streptococcus pyogenes, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella typhimurium, Vibrio cholerae, Shigella flexneri, Proteus mirabilis, and P. vulgaris, representing a diverse array of challenging pathogens. The assessment of these extracts was conducted via the disc diffusion method, employing varying concentrations (250µg/disc, 500µg/disc, and 1000µg/disc). Notably, the resulting mean inhibition zones ranged significantly, spanning from 8.5 mm to 23.8 mm, indicative of varying degrees of antibacterial activity across the extracts. Complementing this, the determination of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) further delineated the potency of these extracts, with MIC values spanning from 62.5µg/ml to 500µg/ml, and MBC values from 125µg/ml to 1000 µg/ml. Of particular interest was the ethyl acetate extract derived from D. dichotoma, which exhibited a remarkable mean inhibition zone of 26.5 mm, alongside the lowest MIC (62.5 µg/ml) and MBC (125 µg/ml) values against S. aureus. This compelling finding underscores the potential of D. dichotoma as a reservoir for novel antibacterial compounds with efficacy against multidrug-resistant bacterial strains. Such insights illuminate promising avenues for the development of innovative therapeutic interventions targeting antibiotic-resistant pathogens.

Published: July 2024

Mejorar el conocimiento de las cuencas petrolíferas de Colombia exige la evaluación e implantación de nuevas estrategias para potencializar o incrementar la exploración de nuevos campos productores de hidrocarburos o incentivar, la profundización de los estudios geológicos en los campos ya existentes. En los últimos años, se han buscado formas de maximizar la producción de los yacimientos de hidrocarburos, aunque en el país se han concentrado en los de tipo detrítico. En este trabajo se plantea la búsqueda de formaciones que contengan rocas carbonatadas para ampliar el rango de yacimientos de interés. En la zona de trabajo, el Shale de Bambucá se caracteriza por poseer un alto contenido de materia orgánica, pero información detallada acerca de su petrografía, cronología y potencial hidrocarburífero no ha sido estudiada en detalle. Los yacimientos carbonatados como el Shale de Bambucá, contienen abundante registro fósil de algas pardas marinas microscópicas conocidas como nanofósiles calcáreos. Los cuales constituyen una opción atractiva de estudio para comprobar o mejorar la resolución de las edades históricamente asignadas y evaluar el potencial que puede tener una formación como roca generadora. Análisis preliminares para proponer una biozonación y eventos bioestratigráficos de nanofósiles calcáreos en esta formación permitieron identificar una asociación compuesta por cinco especies predominantes del Cretácico (Cenomaniano – Coniaciano): Quadrum svabenickae, Lithraphidites carniolensis, Calculites obscurus, Eiffellithus spp, y Watznaueria biporta. Estos organismos son bioformadores de la roca generadora en dicha zona de estudio y confirman el origen marino de los sedimentos con materia orgánica capaz de producir kerógeno Tipo II.
