Authors: TAP Duygu , TERZİ Menderes Yusuf , DUMAN Taşkın
Published: December 2020

Aim: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory pathology affecting the central nervous system. Many therapeutic options have been approved against MS until today. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effect of fingolimod treatment (FT) on the liver enzyme levels of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) patients.

Material and Methods: Body mass index, FT (0.5 mg/day) duration, and liver enzyme (alanine aminotransferase, ALT; gamma glutamyl transferase, GGT) levels of 102 RRMS patients (66 female, 36 male, mean age was 40.9±10.9 years) were gathered from polyclinic records retrospectively.

Results: The FT duration of MS patients was between 0.5 and 6 years. Increased ALT and GGT levels were detected in RRMS patients after >3 month-long FT. After FT, ALT and GGT levels elevated in males almost 2 times higher than in females. It was observed that ALT and GGT levels increased by 1.3 and 1.5 times in females, while 1.6 and 1.9 times in males, respectively. Of the MS patients with increased transaminases post-FT, 7 (23.3%) males and 8 (17.4%) females were at upper limit of normal for ALT whereas 9 (34.6%) males and 14 (32.6%) females as for GGT. Age and FT duration did not affect ALT and GGT levels.

Conclusion: Overall, FT elevated ALT and GGT levels of RRMS patients. Thus, it is of high importance to monitor MS patients throughout FT. So that, we suggest tracking ALT and GGT levels during and after FT to prevent possible liver damage or the occurrence of other systemic diseases.

Authors: KESKİN Olgun , SEREMET KÜRKLÜ Nilgün
Published: December 2020

Aim: This study was aimed to determine the relationship between serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels and the pulmonary functions in adult asthma patients.

Material and Methods: A total of 131 asthmatic patients’ general characteristics, asthma symptoms, pulmonary function test, asthma control test (ACT) scores, serum 25(OH)D levels, body weight, and height were recorded. Body mass indexes (BMIs) of the patients were calculated and World Health Organization criteria were used for the classification. Patients with serum 25(OH)D levels below 20 ng/mL were classified as having a deficiency, those with 21-29 ng/mL as having an insufficiency, and those with 30 ng/mL and above as having normal serum vitamin D levels.

Results: The serum 25(OH)D levels of patients in the uncontrolled asthma group, according to the ACT score, were found to be lower than those of patients in the controlled group (p=0.002). It was determined that as the serum 25(OH)D levels of the patients increased, the ACT scores also increased significantly (r=0.280, p=0.001). Additionally it was found that each 1 ng/mL increase in 25(OH)D level was associated with an increase of 0.176 L in forced vital capacity (FVC). In addition it was determined that as the serum 25(OH)D levels increased, the patients’ FVCs also increased (OR=1.056, 95% CI=1.003-1.113, p=0.038). Although the change was not statistically significant (p=0.081), as serum 25(OH)D levels increased, the ACT scores also increased.

Conclusion: Vitamin D insufficiency and deficiency were frequently found in adults with asthma and there was a relationship between vitamin D deficiency and pulmonary function.

At present, one of the most pressing issues is the problem of improving electromechanical drive reliability, specifically, eliminating the possibility of jamming in the ball screw. The paper proposes an engineering solution designed to replace expensive imported ball screws. We analysed alternative designs intended to improve electromechanical drive reliability. We proposed and patented a ball screw design featuring a separator, in which the nut acts as a piston. The structure consists of a smooth cylindrical body and a slotted separator, its slots positioned along a helical line with a step equal to the thread lead. The body and the separator are coaxial and rigidly fixed together at the separator end faces so that the rolling elements remain in contact with the screw thread surfaces, the internal smooth cylindrical surface of the nut body and the surfaces of the separator slots. The ball screw design proposed, which features a nut with no internal threading, significantly simplifies the structure and its manufacturing technology. We built a model of an electromechanical drive equipped with a recirculating ball screw in order to determine static and dynamic properties of an electromechanical drive containing a ball screw featuring a separator. We compared the strength of the ball screw designs considered. As the ball screw featuring a separator is simpler and more reliable, the results of our analysis and the properties of an electromechanical drive equipped with the design proposed show that it is a promising solution to the import substitution problem concerning recirculating ball screws

The purpose of the study was to explore the process of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disclosure to children living with perinatal HIV at Mpilo Opportunistic Clinic (OI) in Bulawayo Metropolitan Province. The qualitative approach was used to study the topic and a phenomenological research design was used to describe the process of disclosure to children living with perinatal HIV. Data were collected through in-depth interviews. The data collected revealed that the HIV status disclosure to adolescents was difficult for caregivers, which caused the disclosure to be done later than recommended by the Ministry of Health and Child Care Zimbabwe. This had a significant negative impact on the psychological well-being of children who also struggled to disclose their status to others. The study revealed that the HIV counsellors lacked skills to counsel on psychological issues. The researcher recommended that psychologist be integrated in the formulation of an HIV manual and be employed at OI clinics to counsel children and caregivers.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of COVID 19 on employment of youth in Trans Nzoia County. The study was guided by the following objectives: establish employment status of youth in Trans Nzoia County in relation to COVID 19, examine the demerits of youth joblessness, determine measures that can be fronted by the county government of Trans Nzoia to quell the issue of unemployment among the youth .The study was guided by youth livelihood and empowerment theory of change by M Carson (1979) on the disadvantages of youth not engaged .The study explains the repercussion after the youth involve themselves in activities that go against the social norms . The study employed mixed research method and design where the researcher used quantitative and qualitative data forming triangulation design. The sample size to facilitate the study was arrived by use of the formulae whose proponent is Israel G D (2009) no matter how big the population is you will land at four hundred. The research was carried out in Trans Nzoia County one of the forty-seven counties that forms this great nation Kenya after the promulgation of the new constitution in August 2010. There are quite a number of research instruments that could be employed but in this case the researcher settled on questionnaire research tool. Respondents were considered in terms of gender, age, level of education and experience. Pilot data collection was done to ensure the study does not lose focus. The questionnaire return rate from the five categories ranged between 75% and 95% hence considered excellent in line with recommendation by Mugenda and Mugenda (1999). The study established that the escalating situation in terms of job scarcity is championed by a number of positions created in the job market. The wave of corruption has limited chances offered to those who have a formidable financial muscle. Lack of employment has plunged many youths into abuse of drugs, anti social activities such as prostitution and more so enticed to join terrorist groups such as alkaida, alshabab whose main business is to rock peace and stability in any given community. Many people have succumbed in the hands of those merciless gangs. Parents have lost hope in their children this has actually interfered with family linage for many youth are not willing to enter into marriage. The system of education has been diluted hence falling below international standard. Therefore the youth can land a job elsewhere. Possible measures to be employed by the community in partnership with the government to adapt a curriculum that will prepare the young for any eventuality. If they cannot land job in the market then create one of their own that will evade them from being idle hence lured to join fundamentalist groups.

Authors: Al-Saffawi Abdul-Aziz Y. T.
Published: December 2020

The study aimed to understand the quality of groundwater in Al-Nimrud region south-eastern part of Mosul city, Iraq. Groundwater samples from 10 wells were collected during the dry season and analyzed for their physical and chemical properties using standard laboratory methods. From the analyzed data, some parameters like sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), sodium percentage (Na%), potenial salinity (PS), residual sodium carbonate (RSC), magnesium adsorption ratio (MAR), permeability index (PI) and Kellys ratio (KR) were calculated for each water sample to know the irrigational fitness and irrigation water quality index (WQI) was applied to the analytical results of the parameters to obtain a single value that was used to rank the groundwater at each well for agricultural uses. The results showed a high levels of salts for most of the water samples studied, where the average values of EC ranged between (1.64 to 5.069) dS. m -1 . Also, the estimated parameters such as Na%, SAR, PI, KR were within the appropriate levels for irrigation, while the values of MAR, PS for most of the samples were within the inappropriate limits for irrigation. Also, the results of the WQI values showed that the groundwater quality falls between the category of severe to low restrictions, therefore the use of most of the water for irrigation in the study area is likely to lead to the problem of salinity in soils with heavy texture.

Measuring Success of Patients’ Continuous Use of Mobile Health Services for Self-management of Chronic Conditions: Model Development and Validation (Preprint)
Authors: Song Ting , Deng Ning , Cui Tingru , Qian Siyu , Liu Fang , Guan Yingping , Yu Ping
Published: December 2020

BACKGROUND

Mobile health services are gradually being introduced to support patients’ self-management of chronic conditions. The success of these services is contingent upon patients’ continuous use of them.

OBJECTIVE

This study aims to develop a model to measure the success of patients’ continuous use of mobile health services for the self-management of chronic conditions.

METHODS

The proposed model was derived from the information systems continuance model and the information systems success model. This model contains 7 theoretical constructs: information quality, system quality, service quality, perceived usefulness, user satisfaction, perceived health status, and continuous use intention. A web-based questionnaire survey instrument was developed to test the model. The survey was conducted to collect data from 129 patients who used a mobile health app for hypertension management from 2017 to 2019. The questionnaire items were derived from validated instruments and were measured using a 5-point Likert scale. The partial least squares modelling method was used to test the theoretical model.

RESULTS

The model accounted for 58.5% of the variance in perceived usefulness (R2=0.585), 52.3% of the variance in user satisfaction (R2=0.523), and 41.4% of the variance in patients’ intention to make continuous use of mobile health services (R2=0.414). The continuous use intention was significantly influenced by their perceived health status (β=.195, P=.03), perceived usefulness (β=.307, P=.004), and user satisfaction (β=.254, P=.04) with the mobile health service. Information quality (β=.235, P=.005), system quality (β=.192, P=.02), and service quality (β=.494, P<.001) had a significantly positive influence on perceived usefulness but not on user satisfaction. Perceived usefulness had a significantly positive influence on user satisfaction (β=.664, P<.001). In a result opposite to the original hypothesis, perceived health status did not negatively influence patients’ intention to continue using the mobile health service but showed a significantly positive correlation.

CONCLUSIONS

This study developed a theoretical model to predict and explain patients’ continuous use of mobile health services for self-management of chronic conditions and empirically tested the model. Perceived usefulness, user satisfaction, and health status contributed to patients’ intention to make continuous use of mobile health services for self-managing their chronic conditions.

Published: December 2020

This article aims to examine the influence of the practice of the grave pilgrimage to the tomb of KH. Munawir Krapyak on the memorization of students. Pilgrimage to KH. Munawir was not only done to visit the grave but to memorize the Qur'an. Using the living Qur'an theory, this article shows that the pilgrimage practice can have an impact on the recitation of the Qur'an. First, memorization tends to be easier and faster to enter the brain when compared to memorization, not in the tomb. Second, because KH. M. Munawwir is a religious symbol, he is seen as a supervisor who accompanies the process of memorizing the Al-Qur'an. Third, the continuity of the transmission of the sanad Al-Qur'an until it reaches the Prophet Muhammad

Authors: Mamonova Marina V. , Prudnikov Vladimir V. , Makaricheva Alena S.
Published: December 2020

The results of calculations of the energy and magnetic characteristics of the activated adsorption of a monolayer ferromagnetic iron film on the silver surface are presented. The studies were carried out using two approaches: the variational method of the spin density functional taking into account temperature effects and inhomogeneous distribution of magnetization and the ab initio one, implemented using the VASP software package. Calculations were made of the total and interfacial energies, magnetic moment and adsorption energy of the Fe / Ag system, depending on the orientation of the substrate face, the coating parameter Θ and the fraction of adatoms in the film. The strong influence of mixing and the energetic advantage of the formation of a "sandwich" system have been revealed. A continuous Fe film will not form on the close-packed Ag face, which is confirmed by experimental studies.

The formation of forms of self-regulation and human responsibility in ontogenesis in the article is linked with the increase in the measure of the “human factor” in an individual in accordance with the following scheme: individual (“Dasein” of a human) –> subject of activity (“essential forces ”of a human) –> personality (“generic essence” of a human in its individual existence). In the course of the analysis, conclusions are drawn about the characteristics of professional, subject-activity and partly personal selfregulation and responsibility and the reasons of their decline in the modern conditions.

Green finance: An uprising trend in the Russian financial market
Authors: Annenskaya N.E. , Nazar'yants A.A.
Published: December 2020

Subject. The article discusses international stock exchanges, which concentrate deals with green investment instruments, which constitute green finance as a very popular and promising segment in advanced economies. We observe how green finance develop in the Moscow Exchange.
Objectives. The study reveals trends seen in the Russian and foreign green finance markets. We formulate our recommendations for revising the existing approaches and adapting regulatory documents.
Methods. The study is based on the methods of analysis and synthesis, comparative analysis and matching, and a graphical method.
Results. Having analyzed the international practices, we discovered that the Russian green investment market lagged behind the global trend in terms of capitalization, the number of instruments and regulatory regulation. However, environmental cases recorded in 2020 will accelerate the implementation of green investment principles. The global green investment market is just at its infancy. Notwithstanding a shortage of instruments, it is actively growing and evolving. Although the regulatory framework is yet underdeveloped in terms of green finance, the market actors actively implement ESG-principles in their corporate structure and use risk assessment models. Investors choose investees more thoroughly and responsibly. The Russian market lacks an underdeveloped regulatory framework, notwithstanding attempts to adapt the effective regulatory documents to purposes of green finance, and create new regulations.
Conclusions and Relevance. Administrative and economic actions we propose, such as the establishment of self-regulatory organizations for green investment, distribution of risk through the mutual fund of industrial organizations, will contribute to the effective emergence of ESG principles in the Russian market. Legislative recommendations can be used by public authorities and the megaregulator in order to adapt foreign practices to Russia.

The emergence of new ways of interaction between sellers and buyers, the formation of new sales channels and product promotion based on the use of digital economy tools is at the heart of improving the business processes. Social networks became a tool for development; their rapid growth necessitates theoretical understanding and identification of potential application in enterprise's business process digitalization.

Methods. The theoretical and methodological analysis of social networks as a tool for digitalization of company's business processes rests on the content analysis of domestic and foreign scientific studies, comparison, generalization and systematization.
Results. We highlight the key effects of the impact of social networks on the business processes of the company; show that the digitalization of business processes should be considered in the context of a value-based approach, aimed at creating a value through the algorithmization of company operations. We determine that social networks are one of the most important tools for digitalization of company's business processes, as they have a high organizational and management potential. We also systematize the effects of social media on company's business processes.

Developing the theoretical and methodological basis of the value-based management concept
Authors: Rozhkovskii A.L.
Published: December 2020

Subject. The article provides a critical analysis of theoretical framework for the Value-Based Management (VBM), which is a generally recognized standard of corporate governance.
Objectives. The purpose is to identify key mistakes related to interpretation, and propose solutions to fill the gaps in the VBM concept.
Methods. The study draws on the methods of logical and comparative analyses, simulation modeling, and a cross-disciplinary approach.
Results. The study unveils that company's performance should be measured by its investment value rather than by its market value. Approaches to investment valuation are undeveloped, especially in the area of risks and required return on capital. Decision-making within VBM should be considered as a multi-objective problem, which includes at least three criteria, i.e. minimizing the time and budget for implementing management decision and meeting the interests of the most influential stakeholders. Corporate governance should be focused on maintaining the long-term trend in the rise in value, rather than on value maximization.
Conclusions. The most promising areas of further studies are the development of methods for measuring a company's investment value and the relative importance of decision-making criteria, as well as the ranking of the significance of stakeholders' interests. If developed, the theoretical and methodological framework for VBM will contribute to positive dynamics of companies' financial results, their performance indicators, and their value.
DISPENSASI KAWIN AKIBAT HAMIL DI LUAR PERKAWINAN DAN DAMPAKNYA PADA FORMULASI PIDANA ZINA
Authors: Siregar Thogu Ahmad , Sianturi Petrus Richard
Published: December 2020

Data shows a high number of  under-age or child marriages Indonesia. A related phenomenon is number of dispensation requested to the court to conduct marriage in case one or both couples are under age. Reason for this practice may be escape route from poverty, or as a more common justification to prevent sexual intercourse outside marriage (fornication) considered per se immoral.  Meanwhile, drafter of the Indonesian Criminal Code decides to criminalize sexual intercourse outside marriage.   The author, using a descriptive analytical approach, suggest that, at the abstract level, a contradiction exist between the rule of allowing the granting of court dispensation and the rule purporting to criminalize sex outside marriage.  Dispensation, in the final analysis, may be used to de-criminalize sex between under age couples.

Critical Reflections on De-Radicalisation in Indonesia
Authors: Mohammed Ilyas
Published: December 2020

Since 9/11 western and non-western governments have implemented counter-counter terrorism and de-radicalisation programs to “inoculate Muslim populations” and de-radicalise those deemed as radicalised through securitization and “moderate Islam”. The Indonesian government and civil society organizations have attempted to address radicalisation by setting up counter-radicalisation and de-radicalisation programs. This paper will critically reflect on the Indonesian de-radicalisation programs. It will first critically discuss the terms radicalisation and de-radicalisation. Then critically assess the Indonesian de-radicalisation programs. In the final section, the author suggests that Indonesia needs to introduce humanitarian activities to make the de-radicalisation programs more effective and overcome labelling and stigmatization.

This study was conducted to investigate the inhibitory effects of nisin alone or in combination with organic acid on Salmonella enteritidis in poultry feed at different storage times. Feeds divided into six experimental groups that consist of control, 150 mg/kg nisin (N150), 300 mg/kg nisin (N300), 3 g/kg organic acid (OA), 150 mg/kg nisin + 3 g/kg organic acid (N150+OA), 300 mg/kg nisin + 3 g/kg organic acid (N300+OA). Then, 104 cfu/ml Salmonella enteritidis cultures added in the feeds. Feeds were stored in room temperature and Salmonella colonies were enumerated at 7th, 15th, 21st and 28th days of the study. At the end of the study, it was observed inhibitory effects of nisin that alone or in combined with organic acid on Salmonella enteritidis in feeds. These results indicated that nisin has the potential to control of Salmonella enteritidis contamination in feed at different storage times.
