Authors: Indra Kristian
Published: April 2024

Objectives – Decision-making structures are usually associated with the logistical challenges experienced during disaster operations. However, the alignment between the operational level and the decision-making structure is usually neglected. The purpose of this paper is to provide an analysis of the suitability of the two levels and their impact on performance. Design/methodology/approach – This study uses a case study approach in Garut Regency. Through a review of disaster management policies in the region, interviews and secondary data, this paper provides an analysis of the current decision-making structure, logistics activities carried out by the authorities and the impact of alignment between the two components on  logistics support performance. Findings – The analysis shows that some of the challenges commonly associated with centralization are actually rooted in alignment with the operational level. Logistics performance is negatively affected by faulty assumptions, poorly planned procedures, inconsistent decision making, and poorly designed structures. This case demonstrates the need to align the operational level with a centralized perspective to increase responsiveness, flexibility and interaction between different organizations. Originality/value – This paper identifies the impact of misalignment between decision-making structures and the operational level on logistics performance, an area that has not been studied at this time. Moving from current arguments about appropriate decision-making structures for disaster management to identification of components for implementing an efficient and effective disaster management system.

A Case Study of Spontaneous Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fracture in an Elderly Man, Misdiagnosed in Initial Visits: Case Report
Authors: Alouthmani Alyaa , ALakkad Ashraf , Sakkal Alia Al
Published: April 2024

Background: Compression fractures are common among osteoporotic patients and can be a significant source of pain and disability. Patients who suffer a compression fracture are most often treated conservatively. Case Presentation: This report presents the case of an 80-year-old non-hypertensive, non-diabetic male who presented to the hospital with severe acute lower back pain for one week previous. There was no associated past history of trauma. Initially, the patient was misdiagnosed as a case of simple musculoskeletal lower back pain, for which he received treatment, but the pain intensified over the following two weeks, prompting consultation with a neurologist. A physical examination and lumber x ray indicated signs of lumbar spondylosis with degenerative disc disease, for which the patient was prescribed paracetamol and non-steroidal anti- inflammatory drugs. However, no improvement was noted. Later, after three weeks, an MRI investigation was conducted. The findings revealed multiple disc narrowing levels throughout the lumbar spine. Based on these investigations, treatment was initiated with pregabalin. Tramadol was discontinued and visible improvements in the patient's condition were noted within a week. Later, the patient sought consultation from an orthopedic specialist. The doctor recommended additional imaging scans. Magnetic resonance imaging with contrast and computerized tomography scans were performed. Based on these imaging scans, a diagnosis of lumbar spine scoliosis and osteoporotic compression fracture at D12 was made, prompting the initiation of osteoporosis treatment with zoledronic acid. Conclusions: Initial diagnosis and management of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures are important in preventing continued pain and preserving the quality of life in older patients. This case highlights the need for comprehensive evaluation, including MRIs, to discriminate acute fractures from other pathologies, facilitating appropriate intervention and osteoporosis management.
The Impact of External Debt and Exchange Rate Volatility on Domestic Consumption in Sub-Saharan Africa
Authors: Morenike Ashaolu Tina , Chukwuyem Egbon Peter
Published: April 2024

Domestic consumption as the driver of economic growth in any country influences productive activities, employment, and macroeconomic policy decisions. The literature concentrated mostly on income and the interest rate as the determinants of domestic consumption with the recent addition of changes in the real exchange rate and its volatility as critical factors influencing consumption decisions, as countries are becoming open to the global market. However, with the current external debt crisis in Sub-Saharan African countries, this study examined the impact of external debt and exchange rate volatility on domestic consumption in Sub-Saharan Africa in both the short run and long run; sampling twelve Sub-Saharan African countries for the period of 1990–2021. The study utilized a pooled mean group (PMG) estimator of dynamic heterogeneous panel technique and generated exchange rate volatility using generalized autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (GARCH). Our study discovered that while external debt service has a huge negative impact on domestic consumption in the long run, the external debt stock has a long-run positive and significant impact on domestic consumption. Moreover, the exchange rate in Sub-Sahara Africa is persistently volatile and its volatility has both positive and negative impacts on domestic consumption. Our study suggests that external debt may be used to stimulate domestic consumption if it is channeled into infrastructure development and productive activities with high yields to service and liquidate the debt while stabilizing the exchange rate.

A hanseníase é uma doença infecciosa crônica causada pela bactéria Mycobacterium leprae. Embora seja uma das doenças mais antigas da humanidade, a hanseníase ainda persiste como um desafio de saúde pública em várias partes do mundo. A avaliação da incidência de internações por hanseníase é de suma importância para entender não apenas a carga de morbidade associada à doença, mas também para identificar tendências, lacunas no cuidado e áreas prioritárias para intervenção. Dessa forma, O objetivo desse trabalho foi descrever um panorama epidemiológico das internações causadas por hanseníase no Brasil, no período de 2019 a 2023. Este é um estudo de séries temporais, que usou dados do Sistema de Informações Hospitalares (SIH) do DATASUS. Essa fonte abrangente oferece uma visão detalhada das internações causadas por Hanseníase no Brasil. Através desse estudo demostramos uma redução de 23% nas internações causadas por Hanseníase no Brasil, com o Nordeste sendo responsável pela maioria das internações e custos hospitalares. Além disso, identificamos que homens pardos, com idade entre 40 a 49 anos foram principais afetados. É fundamental continuar investindo em pesquisas para o desenvolvimento de novas ferramentas diagnósticas e terapêuticas, bem como em programas de capacitação de profissionais de saúde e na educação da comunidade.

Published: April 2024

In recent years, much attention has been paid to preserving soil fertility and preventing soil degradation, driven by public interest in the environment and growing awareness of the role of soil cover in ensuring environmental and food security in any country. A negative consequence of anthropogenic impact is the deterioration of the ecological function of soils in the ecosystem. There are processes of compaction and disruption of water, air and nutrient regimes. The goal of article is to soil erosion is the main destabilizing factor of the ecological situation in the agricultural landscapes of Cherkasy region, and this publication is aimed at studying it. To determine the qualitative characteristic of the soil cover, namely the actual state of water erosion, the erodibility coefficient (CEr) and data on the distribution of eroded soils by gradations of erodibility are used. The soil erosion coefficient is calculated as a weighted average for each soil based on the coefficients (non-eroded - 1; slightly eroded - 1.2; medium eroded - 1.4; highly eroded - 1.6), which indicate a corresponding decrease in fertility compared to the full profile soil. The erodibility coefficient, together with the data on the distribution of eroded soils by gradations of erodibility, is used as an important qualitative characteristic of the soil cover. Agricultural land occupies about 70% of Ukraine's territory, which is more than 60 million hectares. Overdevelopment of agriculture and a large amount of arable land are the main environmental problems associated with agriculture. The average plowed area reaches 70%, and 90% in Vinnytsia, Cherkasy, Kherson, Kirovohrad, and Zaporizhzhia regions. The article describes the negative effects of water erosion on agricultural landscapes of Cherkasy region. The definition of the qualitative characteristics of the soil cover, namely the actual state of erosion processes using the erodibility coefficient, is given.

By comparing Jordan's legislative adaptations with global legal trends, this study seeks to highlight best practices and propose recommendations for enhancing Jordan's legal framework for electronic business. Additionally, the research will delve into judicial applications relevant to the electronic business to provide a comprehensive overview of the legal landscape and its practical implications. The analysis has revealed that the national laws need to be continuously updated to incorporate emerging technologies and new business practices. This is especially critical in areas like electronic privacy, data protection, consumer protection in the digital space, and the regulation of electronic signatures and transactions. Furthermore, despite Jordan's efforts to adapt its legal system to support electronic business, there is a pressing need for more comprehensive legislation that covers all aspects of the digital economy, including but not limited to, e-government services, e-commerce, and cybersecurity. Internationally, while Jordan has engaged with some treaties and global norms, there is a broader scope for integration into international legal frameworks that govern electronic commerce. Such engagement would not only enhance the legal robustness of Jordan's electronic business sector but also build investor confidence and facilitate smoother international transactions. As Jordan continues to develop its digital economy, it is imperative that its legal framework evolves correspondingly to support sustainable growth, protect stakeholders, and ensure compliance with international legal standards. This will not only benefit the local economy but also position Jordan as a competitive player in the global digital marketplace.

Effective communication is a cornerstone of human interaction, fostering societal cohesion and development. Throughout history, communication has evolved from primitive drawings to complex languages, shaping our societys fabric. However, amidst this progression, individuals with speech and hearing impairments have often faced significant challenges in communication. Despite constituting a minority, their needs are paramount and must not be overlooked. Recognizing the diverse classification of languages into verbal and non-verbal forms, it becomes evident that non-verbal languages play a crucial role, especially for Individuals with Hearing and Speech Impairments (IWSHI). These individuals rely on non-verbal communication methods to interact with the world around them, yet they often face barriers due to the lack of understanding and accessibility. To address this challenge, the HSLR app serves as a transformative tool, enabling IWSHI to communicate confidently. Leveraging technologies such as Augmented Reality (AR) and Machine Learning (ML), our app facilitates real-time recognition of hand signs, providing instantaneous translations for seamless communication. Additionally, the integration of AR technology enhances the user experience, offering immersive and interactive sign-language communication platforms. The MediaPipe model used in real-time achieves high accuracy in recognizing sign language due to the ample dataset we provided.

THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ENVIRONMENTAL INNOVATIONS AND CLIMATE CHANGE
Authors: Madzianike Yeukai Maria
Published: April 2024

This research examines the long-term impact of eco-innovation on global climate risk. Examining the potential impact of environmental innovations, this study de- constructs global climate risk into physical and transition risks. The study focuses on potential environmental innovations that could aid in temperature reduction and global warming mitigation in general as well as its associated risks. We find that eco- innovation shocks have a substantial impact on the global climate risk. The impact is highly persistent over time and may be adverse due to substantial research and development expenditures. Our evidence suggests that all available environmental innovations are fundamentally important for the mitigation of global climate risk and its associated risks. Therefore, eco-innovations can lead to reduced temperature variability, lower greenhouse gas emissions, lower welfare costs of premature deaths caused by high temperatures, and improved environmental policy stringency thanks to increased R&D intensity.

Soft drinks are non-alcoholic water-based flavoured drinks that are optionally sweetened, acidulated and carbonated. Some carbonated soft drinks also contain caffeine; mainly the brown-coloured cola drinks. The contamination of soft drinks with pesticides presents a multifaceted issue with implications for public health, environmental sustainability, and regulatory oversight. This introduction will explore the sources of pesticide contamination in soft drinks, the potential health risks associated with pesticide residues, regulatory frameworks governing pesticide use, and strategies to mitigate the risks posed by pesticide contamination in soft drinks. Excessive consumption of carbonated soft drinks has been putatively linked to health effects including dental caries, obesity, and osteoporosis.
