Cultural Elite in A Local Space
Authors: Béres-Áfra Zsuzsa
Published: April 2024

My study focuses on the shapers Debrecen's – the second biggest city of Hungary –  culture, and my research aimed at getting to know the cultural life of Debrecen, the opinion leaders who have the most influence on it, the members of the local cultural elite, and to reveal patterns and trends in their medium as a function of locality. The question was how a cultural elite operating in a local space interprets its role as a culture shaper, what kind of elite image and roles and functions it usually attributes to members of the elite. Semi-structured interviews were conducted between 2017 and 2020 among cultural elite members in Debrecen. I looked for people who had been active in the arts in Debrecen during the period of the research, whose work had been recognised with a state or professional award and/or who had been at the head of a cultural institution in Debrecen during the research period.

Authors: Wegehaupt Florian J. , Lunghi Nancy , Högger Vanessa M G , Attin Thomasq
Published: April 2024

The extrinsic sources for erosion-causing acids are primarily acidic beverages and foodstuffs. Effervescent tablets also contain organic acids (e.g. citric, tartaric, malic) in order to form carbon dioxide by contact with water  with the help of the carbonate salts of the tablets. To adequately inform patients about the possible erosive potential of effervescent tablets, this study was undertaken in order to investigate the erosive potential of effervescent tablets (ET), containing either a combination of vitamins and minerals or vitamins only, commercially available in Switzerland. One hundred and ninety-two bovine enamel samples were prepared and allocated to 16 groups (AH and 18; n = 12/group). Samples were eroded (120 s/erosive cycle) in freshly prepared solutions (200 ml/12 samples) comprised of tap water and a supplement as follows: none (control groups, A and 1); vitamin+mineral ET: Qualite and Prix (B), Optisana (C), Well and Active (D), Actilife All in One (E), Berocca (F), Isostar (G) and Qualite and Prix Mg + Vit C (H); vitamin ET: Actilife-Multivitamin (2), Sunlife Vitamin C (3), Optisana Vitamin C (4), Optisana Multivitamin (5), Well and Active Multivitamin (6), Kneipp Vitamin C+Zink (7) and Sunlife Multivitamin (8). Enamel loss was measured using profilometry after 10 and 20 erosive cycles. For the vitamin+mineral ET, no loss was observed in groups BE. Significantly highest enamel loss (mean ± SD) after 20 cycles was observed for Isostar (5.26 ± 0.76 µm) and Qualite and Prix Mg + Vit C (5.12 ± 0.67 µm). All vitamine ET showed erosive enamel loss. Significantly highest loss was observed for Sunlife Multivitamin (8.45 ± 1.08 µm), while the lowest loss was observed for Actilife-Multivitamin (5.61 ± 1.08 µm) after 20 cycles. Some of the tested effervescent tablets showed a considerable erosive potential and patients should be informed accordingly.

Published: April 2024

Background: Stroke is a leading cause of disability worldwide, with upper extremity impairments presenting significant rehabilitation challenges. Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT) has emerged as a potential intervention for enhancing upper limb functionality, but its efficacy compared to traditional therapy methods requires further exploration.
Objective: The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of CIMT versus traditional therapy in improving upper extremity function among stroke survivors.
Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 58 stroke patients from Aziz Fatima and Allied Hospital in Faisalabad were recruited and allocated to either the CIMT group (n=29) or the traditional therapy group (n=29). Eligible participants were those aged 30-50 years with ischemic or infarctive stroke and impaired use of their hemiparetic arm. The CIMT group received standard treatment plus CIMT, while the traditional group received only standard treatment, including manual therapy and TENS, for 8 weeks. Pre- and post-treatment assessments utilized the Upper Extremity Motor Activity Log (UEMAL) scales. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 25, employing independent t-tests.
Results: The CIMT group showed a significant improvement in the UEMAL Amount Scale (pre-treatment: 1.64 ± 0.51, post-treatment: 3.04 ± 0.75; p=0.000) and the UEMAL How Well Scale (pre-treatment: 2.28 ± 0.57, post-treatment: 3.81 ± 0.55; p=0.000). The traditional therapy group also demonstrated gains but to a lesser extent (UEMAL Amount Scale pre-treatment: 1.08 ± 0.24, post-treatment: 1.69 ± 0.33; UEMAL How Well Scale pre-treatment: 1.47 ± 0.30, post-treatment: 2.11 ± 0.40; p=0.000 for both).
Conclusion: CIMT provided significant functional improvements in upper extremity motor activity compared to traditional therapy, suggesting that CIMT may be a more effective approach for post-stroke rehabilitation of the upper limb.

Authors: Rashid Annum , Ali Aleena , Mehboob Memoona , Naeem Saadia
Published: April 2024

Background: External cephalic version (ECV) is a pivotal obstetric procedure aimed at reducing caesarean section rates by correcting fetal breech presentation to cephalic presentation through maternal abdominal manipulation. Despite its established efficacy, variability in success rates across different populations and healthcare settings highlights the need for continued evaluation of its clinical application and outcomes.
Objective: To assess the success rate of ECV in term pregnancies with breech presentation and identify factors influencing its outcomes in a tertiary care setting.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Gynecology & Obstetrics Unit of Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar, between November 21, 2019, and May 21, 2020. A sample size of 100 women with singleton pregnancies, aged 20-35 years, presenting with breech at term (37-42 weeks), was included using non-probability consecutive sampling. Exclusion criteria encompassed contraindications to vaginal delivery or ECV. Data on demographic characteristics, obstetric history, and ECV outcomes were collected. The procedure was performed by experienced obstetricians under ultrasound guidance. Statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS version 25.0, with chi-square tests applied to assess associations between variables and ECV success.
Results: The mean age of participants was 30 years (SD ± 5.887), with a mean gestational age of 38 weeks (SD ± 3.94). The success rate of ECV was 57%. Multigravida women constituted 73% of the sample. No significant associations were found between ECV success and age groups (P=0.8792), gestational period (P=0.9699), gravidity (P=0.7813), obesity (P=0.7519), or educational level (P=0.9668).
Conclusion: The study confirms a 57% success rate for ECV in correcting breech presentations at term, reinforcing the procedure's role in potentially reducing the need for caesarean sections. These findings support the incorporation of ECV into obstetric practice as a standard of care for eligible women with breech presentations, highlighting the necessity for skilled providers and patient education to optimize outcomes.

Published: April 2024

Background: Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma (OSCC), a prevalent form of oral cancer, is marked by its aggressive nature and potential for metastasis. With a global five-year survival rate below 50%, the incidence of OSCC presents a significant public health challenge. The highest incidence rates are observed in Southeast Asia, correlating with the cultural practices of betel-quid and tobacco consumption.
Objective: To evaluate the common sites and locations of OSCC among patients attending a tertiary care hospital in Hyderabad, with a view to identifying patterns that may guide early detection and targeted interventions.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included 100 clinically diagnosed OSCC patients from Liaquat Medical University Hospital, Hyderabad, from January 2021 to February 2022. Following informed consent, detailed patient examinations were performed. Data on demographic variables, habits, and lesion sites and locations were collected using a structured proforma and analyzed using SPSS Version 25. The study adhered to the ethical guidelines of the Declaration of Helsinki.
Results: The patient cohort exhibited a male predominance (77%) with a mean age of 44.28 ± 13.065 years. Betel Nut (47%) and Gutka (27%) were the most common habits among the patients. The tongue was the most frequently involved site (38%), followed by buccal/labial mucosa (27%) and gingiva (10%). OSCC was more commonly found in the maxilla (75%) than in the mandible (43%).
Conclusion: The results indicate a higher occurrence of OSCC in the maxilla with the tongue being the most common site of manifestation. These findings underscore the need for targeted educational and preventive strategies at the primary healthcare level, emphasizing early diagnosis and intervention.

Authors: Parveen Robina , Fatima Mehria , Shoaib Minahil , Tahir Muhammad Noman
Published: April 2024

Background: Dementia encompasses a spectrum of neurological disorders, prominently featuring Alzheimer's disease (AD), which constitutes approximately 70% of all dementia cases. Risk factors include genetic predispositions, such as the ApoE ε4 allele, APP, PSEN1/PSEN2, and lifestyle or health-related factors like depression, smoking, hypertension, and Type II diabetes. The latter is notably associated with conditions like hyperglycemia or insulin resistance, which potentially disrupt cerebral function and precipitate cognitive decline.
Objective: This study focuses on the Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) genes, exploring their role in neuroprotection. Specifically, it examines the expression levels of the NGF gene in diabetic patients with dementia and correlates these findings with neural disturbances as gauged by Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores.
Methods: Blood samples (5 ml each) were collected from 100 participants, comprising 68 cases of diabetic dementia and 32 healthy controls, from Jinnah Hospital Lahore and Shaikh Zayed Hospital Lahore. The study involved nucleic acid extraction, primer design and optimization, and targeted RT-qPCR for NGF expression analysis. ELISA and MMSE scoring were also employed to assess cognitive impairment.
Results: Analysis revealed significantly lower NGF expression in the diabetic dementia group compared to controls. Specifically, an NGF gene expression decrease correlated with cognitive impairment severity; 80% of participants scored below 9 on the MMSE, indicative of severe dementia. A Pearson’s correlation coefficient of 0.494 underscored the relationship between NGF expression and cognitive impairment.
Conclusion: The findings highlight the potential role of NGF genes in the pathogenesis of dementia among individuals with diabetes. Changes in NGF expression may be pivotal in dementia development, suggesting that NGF could serve as a biomarker for the diagnosis and potentially guide therapeutic strategies.

Authors: Adi Ahmad
Published: April 2024

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been widely applied in various fields, including important aspects in the development of enterprise information systems. This research aims to explore the use of AI in improving the efficiency of enterprise information systems and analyse its impact on organisational performance. In this research method, we collected primary data from several companies that have implemented AI systems in their operations. Secondary data was also collected from related literature, including case studies and previous research in this field. Furthermore, we conducted a qualitative analysis of the data and a quantitative evaluation of the impact of AI implementation in improving the efficiency of information systems. The results show that the implementation of AI has resulted in a significant increase in the efficiency of the company's information system. AI-assisted systems are able to automatically process and analyse data, predict market trends, identify anomalies, and provide strategic recommendations for decision-making. These efficiencies in turn improve operational performance, lower costs, and enhance more timely and accurate decision-making. We conclude that the use of AI in enterprise information systems effectively improves operational efficiency and organisational performance. However, important steps need to be taken to ensure successful implementation of AI, such as providing adequate resources, developing employee competencies, and considering the social and ethical impacts of using AI in a business context.

POURQUOI ÉTUDIER LES ANCIENS ? D’UNE VOIE L’AUTRE : PAUL VEYNE, MARCEL DETIENNE, JAN ASSMANN
Authors:   INALCO, Paris, VÂRTEJANU-JOUBERT MĂDĂLINA
Published: April 2024

One of Professor Zoe Petreʹs great talents has been to take up the topicality of Antiquity in a natural way. The double movement of alteration and identification with a historical period far removed from the present, from the contemporary, largely legitimizes its study as an academic practice of popular scope. In the twentieth century the situation is much less comfortable for the scholar of Antiquity. What sense does the study of Antiquity have in a regime of historicity which, according to François Hartog, is a ʺpresentistʺ one? Or, following the sociological approach of Max Weber, what is an interesting subject? Interesting individually, for the researcher himself, and also interesting through its societal collective scope. It seems to me that, for the post-war period up to the present day, three answers have been given to the question ʺwhy study the ancients?” and hence three historiographical proposals. I would describe these three professions of faith as ludic (Paul Veyne), comparatist (Marcel Detienne) and memorial (Jan Assmann).
CONTRE ANTHONY D. SMITH: UNE RELECTURE CRITIQUE DES THÉORIES ETHNO-SYMBOLISTES SUR L’ANCIENNETÉ DES NATIONS
Authors:   Université de Bucarest, CREȚULESCU VLADIMIR
Published: April 2024

According to the theorists of ethnosymbolism, nations are very ancient communities of symbols, values, myths and shared memories. However, in light of the distinction operated by Rogers Brubaker between the practice and the analysis of nations, ethnosymbolism seems to have borrowed its premises from national ideology, thus compromising ab initio its epistemic objectives. Furthermore, its theorists have arrived at conclusions which are altogether too ambitious, given the theoretical tools, methodologies and, above all, the poor historical record available.
The Moderating Role of Financial Self-Efficacy in the Relationship between Emotional Intelligence and Financial Effectiveness.
Authors: Riaz Asghar , Richard Skolnik  , Syed Zulfiqar Ali Shah
Published: April 2024

Purpose - This study aims to examine the effects of emotional intelligence on organizational financial effectiveness, with the moderating effect of financial self-efficacy. 
Study Design/methodology/approach - To examine how financial self-efficacy moderates the relationship between emotional intelligence and financial effectiveness, data were collected from a sample of 272 managers in Pakistani organizations using a 7-point Likert scale questionnaire. SPSS and the graphical application AMOS were used to evaluate the collected data and structural equation modeling (SEM) techniques were used to evaluate the hypothesis.
Findings- The results reveal that emotional intelligence significantly affects an organization’s financial effectiveness. Emotional intelligence includes key components such as self-awareness, self-management, motivation, empathy, and social skills, all of which contribute significantly to an organization’s financial effectiveness. Results show that it is important for organizations to measure managers’ emotional intelligence before employing them. Moreover, research shows that the association between organizational financial effectiveness and emotional intelligence is significantly moderated by financial self-efficacy.
Research Practical Implications- The study has limitations, such as focusing solely on individual emotional intelligence (EI) and financial effectiveness rather than considering team-level EI or qualitative aspects of EI. However, it confirms a link between EI and financial effectiveness, particularly when moderated by financial self-efficacy. These findings underscore the importance of EI and financial self-efficacy, suggesting avenues for future research.
Originality/value- Examination of non-linearity between ESG and firm-specific factors has not been performed holistically. Additionally, a direct comparison between the developed and developing markets is also lacking in the current literature. This study attempts to address these gaps.

Published: April 2024

The current research aimed to examine the relationship of parenting styles with decision-making and self-concept among adolescents (N=400). The sample comprised Multan and Vehari college students and government and private colleges. 200 male and 200 female college students were recruited for the present study. Data were collected through the Parental Authority Questionnaire (Buri, 1989), the Self-Concept Questionnaire (Robson, 1989), and the Melbourne Decision Making Questionnaire (Mann et al., 1997). Results show that self-concept has a significant negative correlation with authoritarian fathers, authoritarian mothers, permissive fathers, and permissive mothers. In contrast, a significant positive correlation is between authoritative fathers and authoritative mothers. Findings revealed that gender moderates the relationship between authoritarian parenting styles and hypervigilance, as well as procrastination. Moreover, gender also moderates the relationship between authoritarian parenting and self-concept. Studies demonstrate that parenting styles, especially authoritarian parenting styles, play a distinctive role in determining adolescents' adaptive decision-making and firm self-concept.

Darcy’s Law in Variable Density Groundwater Systems
Authors: Marinelli Fred
Published: April 2024

Although Darcy’s law is one of the fundamental equations used in hydrogeology to describe the movement of groundwater through an aquifer, it has limitations. In this book, we focus on Darcy’s law for one-dimensional flow in a homogeneous porous medium. We begin with a review of the hydraulic head form of Darcy’s law that is familiar to most groundwater hydrologists and discuss the concept of head as a hydraulic potential. Using a thought experiment, we show that the head form of Darcy’s law cannot work for a hypothetical system with variable groundwater denisty. This leads us to the pressure-based form of Darcy’s law, which is more universal and can be used to compute flux in systems with elevated and/or variable-density groundwater. Finally, through illustrative examples, we demonstrate how the pressure-based form can be used to evaluate horizontal and vertical fluxes in flow systems that are not amenable to analysis with the head form of Darcy’s law.
Comparative analysis of frameworks for mobile application development: Native, hybrid, or cross-platform solutions
Authors: Zarichuk Oleksii
Published: April 2024

In the modern digital world, mobile application development is a key area of information technology, and choosing the optimal approach to their development is crucial for effective market implementation. The purpose of this study is to conduct a comparative analysis of various frameworks for mobile application development: native, hybrid, and cross-platform solutions. To achieve this purpose, methods of analysis, synthesis, and comparison were used. Characteristics of different frameworks for mobile application development, including their performance, cost, and access to device capabilities, were analysed. The study disclosed that native frameworks are distinguished or their highest performance and the ability to provide a maximally native look and functionality of the application. However, this approach has limitations as it requires separate development for each platform, leading to increased time and resource costs. Hybrid solutions proved to be cost-effective, allowing the use of a single codebase for creating applications for different platforms. This simplifies the development and maintenance process. Nevertheless, hybrid applications may have limited performance due to the use of WebView for interface display and restricted access to device capabilities. Cross-platform frameworks, on the other hand, provide a balance between performance and resource efficiency. They allow using a single codebase for creating applications for multiple platforms and can achieve satisfactory performance. However, they may have limited access to certain device capabilities and application appearance. This study makes a new contribution to science by providing a detailed comparative analysis of different approaches to mobile application development and the frameworks used for their creation. The results obtained can be used to make informed decisions regarding the choice of a framework for mobile application development

Energy and Exergy Analysis of Solar PV System
Authors: Kandukuri Kumari  , D. Chandra Sekhar
Published: April 2024

The solar photovoltaic system generates both thermal energy and electrical energy by utilizing solar energy. An experimental attempt has been made in this paper to calculate the energy production as well as the exergy output of a solar PV panel mounted at Guntur. Energy and exergy were analyzed using the first and second laws of thermodynamics to calculate energy and exergy. This process's structure includes ambient temperature, total heat flow, open-circuit voltage, short-circuit current, fill factor, solar radiations, and so on. It is expected that the temperature of the PV solar module would have the greatest impact on the efficiencies. Heat may be eliminated with the aid of water or air to increase both energy and exergy efficiencies.

Authors: Muthyala Abhishek
Published: April 2024

In recent years, the need for efficient and sustainable energy solutions has become increasingly important. One potential solution is the use of solar power for battery charging systems. In this project, an Arduino-based solar-powered battery charging system is designed and implemented. The system consists of a solar panel that collects energy from the sun, an Arduino microcontroller that regulates the battery's charging, and a battery that stores the energy for later use. The solar panel converts sunlight into DC electrical energy, which is then fed to the battery through a charging circuit. The implementation of this system is fairly straightforward. The solar panel is connected to an input pin of the Arduino microcontroller, which then controls the charging of the battery through a charging circuit connected to an output pin. The charging circuit is designed to limit the charging current and voltage to prevent damage to the battery.
Implementation of the Optimized Dual Fingerprint Algorithm for Protecting Privacy Information

The electromagnetic spectrum (EM) is made up of a variety of wavelengths, but the only wavelength that can be seen by the human visual system (HVS) is the visible wavelength, which is also referred to as the digital image processing (DIP) wavelength. The visible wavelength is also known as the visible light spectrum (VLS). The DIP is a component of the signal processing, but the HVS is unable to see the other elements of the signal if the DIP is not there. This is because the HVS requires a digital screen in order to see them, which is an application of the DIP. Through the implementation of digitalization applications in a variety of study domains, the DIP transforms the current world into a center for technological innovation. In today's society, security is of the highest importance, and biometrics-based systems have gained appeal over conventional ones because to their simplicity of use, resilience, and accuracy. Biometrics-based systems are becoming more popular. In this research, a unique combinational manner-based security solution is provided by combining the two fingerprints and taking into account their distinct orientations and minute details. This approach is made possible by taking into mind the minutiae involved. The creation of a fingerprint template that is identical to the original fingerprint included taking elements from two separate fingerprints and combining them. The information is protected against theft using the suggested template, which also demonstrates a low error rate (FRR = 0.4% at FAR = 0.1%) when compared to conventional methods (FAR = 0.1%). In conclusion, as compared to traditional approaches, the suggested method possesses a superior virtual identity, which demonstrates positive outcomes when defending against incidental and inadvertent attacks.

Authors: Kumar Dushyanth , Rani Reena , Vivek Navneet , Kumar Nitesh
Published: April 2024

Artificial Neural Networks are excellent at identifying patterns or trends in data, which makes them perfect for forecasting or prediction. Thus, neural networks have extensive application in biological systems. The application of neural networks to kidney stone diagnosis is emphasized in this article. Kidney stone issues can be diagnosed with neural networks by applying technological concepts such as MLP, SVM, RBF, and BPA. The purpose of this research is to use three different neural network algorithms—each with its own specific design and set of properties to identify kidney stone disease. The performance of the three neural networks is compared in this research with respect to training data set size, model creation time, and accuracy. Kidney stone sickness will be diagnosed using radial basis function (RBF) networks, two layers feed forward perceptrons trained with the back propagation training algorithm, and learning vector quantization (LVQ). However, determining the best approach for any particular diagnostic had never been an easy task. Like many other illnesses, kidney stones have already been diagnosed using neural network algorithms. The main objective of this work is to recommend the best medical diagnostic instrument, such as kidney stone detection, to reduce diagnosis times and improve accuracy and efficiency.
