Modern principles of organisation of university museums and exhibition spaces
Authors:   Moscow State University of Civil Engineering (National Research University) (MGSU), Vasileva Anna V.
Published: May 2023

Introduction. Today, many university museums around the world are facing the need to revise the principles of their activities in order to fully integrate into the daily life of their educational institutions. The main functions for such museums are patriotic, image-building, educational, educational and career guidance. Modern challenges include attracting not only students and applicants, but also a wider audience. Challenges of introducing new technologies will make them more relevant to younger generation. However, without defining the main purpose of the museum’s existence, it is impossible to build a coherent path for its development. Purpose. To determine the basic principles of exhibition organisation and its placement in the structure of a university campus, depending on the nature of the museum and the image of the educational institution. Results. Using the example of museums of the world’s largest universities, the specifics of their location depending on specialisation, the correlation between the organization of space and the theme of the exhibition, the characteristics of exhibition equipment, the principles of placement of different types of expositions in the structure of campuses are determined. Conclusions. It has been found that when the university is image oriented towards history and traditions, the museums are located in historical buildings and have a more familiar spatial structure and principles exhibition organization. In the case of striving to demonstrate the innovative nature of the university, the priority is given to the placement in the most accessible and technologically advanced modern buildings. Exhibitions related to the current life of the university are housed in more light, versatile and democratic spaces. The latest trend is the active use of multimedia and interactivity.

Published: May 2023

Lymphomas are malignant neoplasms originating from bone marrow and lymphatic structures resulting in the proliferation of lymphocytes. It is divided into Hodgkin’s and Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Among Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, diffuse large B cell type is the most common, and the follicular variant is next. Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is one of the least common varieties of Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. It is a case of mantle cell lymphoma presented as an irreducible inguinal hernia. This case report aims to tell us that when it comes to inguinal hernias, most of them do not concentrate on general examination. In this case, it's clear that even if a patient present with an inguinal hernia, it is mandatory to rule out other common clinical findings to prevent misdiagnosis. Even though previous similar cases described were of lymphomas identified in the hernia sac along with the hernia component, it is the first report of mantle cell lymphoma, which presented as an inguinal swelling mimicking an irreducible inguinal hernia. This 72-year male patient, a farmer by occupation, complained of swelling and pain over the right groin. On examination, we found multiple enlarged inguinal lymph nodes raised the suspicion of lymphoma. We proceeded with a CT abdomen and chest, followed by surgery, and mantle cell lymphoma was diagnosed after immunohistochemistry results. The patient was referred for chemotherapy, and a long-term follow-up was done. The patient was doing good. Furthermore, it highlights the significance of the role played by surgeons in screening by sending only macroscopically unusual specimens for microscopic analysis. Here, we present a case of primary non-lymphoma Hodgkin's of the sigmoid colon that manifested as an inguinal hernia that was completely irreducible.
(NOT) ENTERING EVERY ROOM - Exploring autosociobiographies via liminal crossing points of social class and the emotion shame
Authors: Barbara Wolfram  , Christina Wintersteiger
Published: May 2023

(Not) Entering Every Room, conducted 2020/21 at Film Academy Vienna/ mdw - University for Music and Performing Arts Vienna, set out to use the emotion shame as a focus to reveal and explore unconscious liminal crossing points in our biographies and perceptions of social class, building on our previous research on cinematic (auto)sociobiographies (2020).

We are shaped, guided and scarred by our socialization and the society surrounding us. Each individual history brings with it a different knowledge repertoire about what belonging or not-belonging, „normal“ or „abnormal“ means. Spoerhase (Politik der Form 2017) describes the exploration and disclosure of one’s own biography in relation to social context & class, to one’s body, time & place of birth as “auto-sociobiographical”. He refers to the literary works of Annie Ernaux or Didier Eribon where individual life stories evoke a collective memory of a certain time and place, revealing liminal experiences of social class. One emotion that was mentioned more often than any other in these literary works, was shame.

To explore our own histories of experiences and the attached knowledge repertoire, we used the methodology of collective (auto)sociobiographical exploration via a multi-layered artistic approach. Body work (Chechov, Shdanoff), writing improvisations and group explorations via zoom were used to probe the methodology of (auto)sociobiographical exploration in the light of shame and social class.

Research on cinematic (auto)sociobiographies is still very new. We aim at contributing a method of exploration to the field of cinematic form and content production informed by artistic research methods.
FACE VALIDATION IN LARGE-SCALE SIMULATION PROJECTS
Authors: ÖZTÜRK Savaş
Published: May 2023

Face validation is an informal type of validation, usually applied in the early stages of a simulation project or model development process. Face validation is used to determine the reasonableness of a model or simulation when advanced validation methods such as statistical analysis or sensitivity analysis are not applicable. In large-scale simulation projects such as warfare simulation applications, which consist of a large number and variety of models that cannot be evaluated independently and contain high levels of uncertainty, face validation should be utilized, but no standard method for face validation can be proposed. In this paper, we review the literature and practical applications of face validation. We propose a process to improve the effectiveness of face validation. The proposed process is expected to help to realize a measurable, concrete and practical face validation, especially in large-scale projects involving high-fidelity complex models and constructive simulations.

Authors: AKKUZUKAYA Gulsum
Published: May 2023

The utilization of biometric products is an expanding landscape; from general consumers employing it for authenticating into their devices to governments deploying it at the forefront of crime and border control. One sizeable organization required an expansion in their offering within the industryThis study aims to develop a facial matching solution that offers high performance and meets the requirements of the organization’s biometric Subject Matter Experts in order to meet the current gap in the offering. A facial recognition approach known as FaceNet was utilized along with the GO language and MongoDB to produce an application capable of performing enrolments and matches against a persistent set of candidates. This solution was validated against the labeled Faces in the Wild dataset, a challenging set of facial biometric data in function, performance, and accuracy testing. For a subset of 6000 images from the dataset, a 100 % accuracy was recorded from multiple test runs demonstrating no false matches. The application's performance against this subset was averaged over multiple executions using two concurrent connections, which concluded an average enroll response time of 70ms and 236ms for match requests giving transactions per second values of 29 and 8 respectively.

In order to solve the difficulties in recognizing and assisting those
who are living in poverty, this research study explores the problem of
poverty and suggests the creation of a web application. Despite the
efforts of governments, non- governmental organizations, and
humanitarian groups, poverty still affects millions of people globally
and is a widespread issue. Therefore, it is essential to look into fresh
approaches to solving this problem and to use technology to make life
easier for NGOs and other organizations whose mission it is to reduce
poverty. The suggested online application intends to link
individuals in need with possible sponsors and contributors, deliver
fun- damental healthcare and education to kids from disadvantaged homes,
and make project registration for NGOs and other groups easier.
Additionally, it aims to help farmers and self- employed people promote
their goods in order to improve their standard of living. The
presentation emphasizes the significance of combating poverty and the
possible advantages of using tech- nology to improve the lives of the
less fortunate. The study also examines contemporary technical
advancements and poverty- fighting measures. The use of new technology
can significantly increase the efficacy and efficiency of efforts to
reduce poverty. The document underlines the necessity of an
all-encompassing strategy for ending poverty and promotes cooperation
across stakeholders including governments, NGOs, and the corporatesector. To make a long-lasting difference in the complicated
problem of poverty, all parties must work together. The suggested online
application can be crucial in solving some of the difficulties in
identifying and assisting those in poverty. In order to reach the shared
objective of ending poverty, the research advises greater investigation
of technology-driven solutions for the problem as well as the
encouragement of collaborations across stakeholders.
A VERY RARE CASE; CARDIAC LIPOMA
Authors: Kulacoglu Ulku Kafa , Pala Arif
Published: May 2023

Cardiac lipomas are rare primary benign tumors of the heart. They make
up only 8.4% of primary heart tumors. (1) The etiology of these tumors
is not certain, but some publications have hypothesized that cardiac
lipomas are affected by HMGA2-LPP gene fusion. (2) Cardiac lipomas are
mostly asymptomatic and are detected incidentally in routine cardiac
screening tests. When cases are symptomatic, symptoms vary depending on
the location and size of the mass. For example, signs of stenosis and
arrhythmias occur when the tumor is in the superior vena cava. The most
common locations are the right atrium and left ventricle. In addition to
these locations, they can be seen in any intracardiac and epicardial
locations. Echocardiography and cardiac MRI can be used as diagnostic
methods. We report a very rare case of cardiac lipoma, which narrows the
right atrial inflow and extends to the superior vena cava.
Cardiovascular Events of Bruton’s Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors: A Real-World Study Based on the FDA Adverse Events Reporting System (FAERS) Database
Authors: Zhao Zeng-xiang , Yang Tian-yi , Wang Yuan-hui , Zhang Li , Ji Li , Su Yu-wen
Published: May 2023

Abstract Aims Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKIs), including
first-generation ibrutinib, second-generation acalabrutinib, and
zanubrutinib may have certain mechanisms of action (MOAs) related to
adverse effects (AEs) on the cardiovascular system. We aimed to evaluate
the cardiac AEs of BTKIs reported to the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) and to compare the
differences in cardiovascular toxicity of ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, and
zanubrutinib. Methods Only primary suspect drugs from the FAERS database
were extracted from January 2013 to December 2022 across all indications
of FDA-approved BTKIs. Disproportionality was measured by reporting odds
ratios (RORs) and information components (ICs). An additional
disproportionality analysis was also performed from January 2020 to
December 2022. Results A total of 10,353 cases involving ibrutinib,
acalabrutinib and zanubrutinib were included. Ibrutinib was
significantly associated with the incidence of cerebrovascular
accidents, myocardial infarction and other thrombotic events.
Acalabrutinib was associated with new signals, including cardiac
failure, ventricular extrasystoles, pulmonary edema and angina pectoris,
and hypertension and myocardial infarction were found in additional
analyses. Furthermore, acalabrutinib was characterized by a much earlier
onset of cardiovascular events. Only atrial fibrillation was associated
with zanubrutinib use. Acalabrutinib and zanubrutinib had lower ROR
values for cardiac AEs, and fewer signals for these two drugs compared
with ibrutinib. Conclusion This study indicated that new AEs were not
clearly noted on the label for acalabrutinib. It is suggested that the
cardiovascular risks of BTKIs remain a concern and worth attention as
next-generation BTKIs are discovered and developed.
An Analysis of the Thermal Regime and Energy Balance of a Subarctic Hydroelectric Reservoir Using Direct Measurements of Surface and Lateral Exchanges

Published: May 2023

The thermal regime of hydroelectric reservoirs differs from that of
lakes, as it is influenced not only by natural inflows and outflows of
energy, but also by management rules through regulated downstream
constraints and more importantly the electric demand through turbine
flows. These advection terms are rarely assessed for hydroelectric
reservoirs particularly in eastern North America, a region where they
are abundant. This study contributes, using a series of unique
observations, to the assessment of the water and energy balances of the
85-km Romaine-2 northern reservoir (50.69°N;
63.24°W) with an average depth of 44 m. Two thermistor chains were
deployed to monitor the dynamics of the vertical temperature profiles
from 2018 to 2022. The surface energy balance components were measured
using two eddy-covariance stations. Summer stratification occurs from
June to November, and winter stratification from December to May. The
maximum water temperature gradient of the metalimnion was 1°C m
in mid-September, and the maximum depth of the
thermocline was 35 m in late October, before the autumn mixing period.
We found that the water balance of the reservoir was mainly controlled
by turbine operations, with a hydraulic residence time of 5.4 months.
Net radiation was found to be the main source of energy to the reservoir
(95.6% of the energy input), and the net advection of heat was weak
(4.4%) in a steady state reservoir. Latent (58.5%) and sensible
(16.5%) heat fluxes dominated the outflow energy balance. In short,
this study highlights that the heat advection term represents a small
fraction of the annual energy budget for the subarctic reservoir under
study, despite being the dominant term in its water budget.
Acute kidney disease: an overview of the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and management
Authors: Kung Chin-Wei , Chou Yu-Hsiang
Published: May 2023

Acute kidney injury (AKI) increases the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), and AKI and CKD are seen as interconnected syndromes. Acute kidney disease (AKD) is defined as subacute damage and/or loss of kidney function occurring 7 to 90 days after AKI, during which period key interventions may be initiated to hinder the development of CKD. While AKD is usually under-recognized, it is associated with high morbidity and mortality globally. This review article aims to summarize the current knowledge concerning the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and management of AKD with the aim to develop monitoring strategies and therapeutic agents of AKD. Generally, AKD tends to occur more frequently in the elderly and those with chronic diseases, such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and metabolic syndrome. In addition, the severity, duration, and frequency of AKI are independent risk factors for AKD. Investigations of several mechanisms of AKD, such as renal tubular epithelium cell-cycle arrest, epigenetic change, chronic inflammation, mitochondria dysfunction, failed regeneration of tubular cells, metabolic reprogramming, and renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activation, have identified additional potential pharmacotherapy targets. Management of AKD includes prevention of repeated AKI, early and regular follow-up by a nephrologist, resumption and adjustment of essential medication, optimization of blood pressure control and nutrition management, and development of new pharmaceutical agents including RAS inhibitors. Finally, we outline a care bundle for AKD patients based on important lessons learned from studies and registries and identify the need for clinical trials of RAS inhibitors or other novel agents to impede ensuing CKD development.
Adamantane as a Means of High Dimension, Preventing the Formation of the Beta-Amyloid
Authors: Vladimirovich Zhizhin Gennadiy
Published: May 2023

The structure of the adamantane molecule, which coincides with the unit cell of diamond, is constructed. It is proved that the dimension of the adamantane molecule is 9. This is more than twice the dimension of the adamantane molecule previously considered. The higher dimension of adamantane molecules indicates the higher dimension of the molecules of substances containing adamantane molecules in their composition, in particular drugs based on adamantane. In this work, it is shown that main part of adamantane itself, containing 10 active carbon atoms, can be a means of impeding the formation of betaamyloids that play the main role in various diseases of nerve cells.

Published: May 2023

Introduction“Big data” – including linked administrative data – can be exploited to evaluate interventions for maternal and child health, providing time- and cost-effective alternatives to randomised controlled trials. However, using these data to evaluate population-level interventions can be challenging.
ObjectivesWe aimed to inform future evaluations of complex interventions by describing sources of bias, lessons learned, and suggestions for improvements, based on two observational studies using linked administrative data from health, education and social care sectors to evaluate the Family Nurse Partnership (FNP) in England and Scotland.
MethodsWe first considered how different sources of potential bias within the administrative data could affect results of the evaluations. We explored how each study design addressed these sources of bias using maternal confounders captured in the data. We then determined what additional information could be captured at each step of the complex intervention to enable analysts to minimise bias and maximise comparability between intervention and usual care groups, so that any observed differences can be attributed to the intervention.
ResultsLessons learned include the need for i) detailed data on intervention activity (dates/geography) and usual care; ii) improved information on data linkage quality to accurately characterise control groups; iii) more efficient provision of linked data to ensure timeliness of results; iv) better measurement of confounding characteristics affecting who is eligible, approached and enrolled.
ConclusionsLinked administrative data are a valuable resource for evaluations of the FNP national programme and other complex population-level interventions. However, information on local programme delivery and usual care are required to account for biases that characterise those who receive the intervention, and to inform understanding of mechanisms of effect. National, ongoing, robust evaluations of complex public health evaluations would be more achievable if programme implementation was integrated with improved national and local data collection, and robust quasi-experimental designs.

The Criteria and Indicators for Applying Transit-oriented Development (TOD) in Metropolitan Cities Based on Lessons Learned from the International Experiences
Authors: Hardi Apri Zulmi , Maatouk Mohammed Mahmoud H.
Published: May 2023

Most countries in developed countries have been implementing the TOD approach in their urban planning. TOD design in urban planning is not a new theory and has existed for almost three decades since the 1990s, and then it has been applied to a lot of various model designs suited to a country's purposes. The aim of using TOD depends on urban form, the physical aspects, socio-economic, cultural sides, and political views (policy) connected highly to each other. This paper depicts a literature review and critical review of the successful TOD from international practice gathered by researchers in recent decades. The authors realize that many documents on TOD focus on analysing the existing TOD and evaluating TOD, and the paper presenting the TOD guideline, especially the new-modern design of TOD, is limited. Therefore, the authors review the criteria and indicators and find that there are two objectives of TOD design, macro, and micro levels. At the macro level, the TOD focuses on determining the nodes of all public transport and creating a well-integrated system between the city structure (urban center, urban, and suburban) and its element. The micro level focused on urban design, like pedestrian ways, bicycle paths, station affordability, road design, parking lots, building structure and design, and others. The authors formulate the criteria and indicators in the TOD planning guideline, and it will be rules of TOD for the country in developing countries, which have not to apply for TOD or to improve their TOD effectively based on the successful TOD in any models.
Athletes and Environmental Activism: How Much do Athletes Contribute to Protecting the Planet?
Authors: Barquero Marco D.
Published: May 2023

Public figures like actors, musicians, and professional athletes can reach a wide audience and so, convey an important message to preserve our natural resources. However, there are differences among all these types of public figures regarding their environmental awareness and activism. Despite substantial earnings coming from their salary or endorsements, pro-environmental actions do not seem to be part of the agenda of many high-paid athletes and environmental activism among professional athletes remains low. Instead of making a significant contribution to protecting the planet, many athletes invest their money in the acquisition of expensive objects or mansions, become businesspeople, or even squander their profits. Thus, this is a call for professional athletes to get involved in environmental activism and adopt an environmentally friendly lifestyle.

Authors:   Faculty of Medicine, Universitas Padjadjaran, Bandung, Indonesia, Wiraswati Hesti Lina
Published: May 2023

Background: Due to the prevalence of malaria worldwide and cases of resistance to malaria drugs, finding new drug candidates is important in malaria control. Due to its traditional use and phytochemical content, this review was conducted on the medicinal plant Mimosa pudica and its family, Fabaceae. Method: This review collected original articles in online databases using several keywords combined with boolean operators. The articles about the antimalarial and insecticidal effects of Mimosa pudica and other Fabaceae species were included in the study. Results: Forty-two articles described 45 species from the Fabaceaefamily exhibiting antimalarial and/ or insecticidal potential including Mimosa pudica. The studies showed that crude extract of M. pudica showed activity against P. falciparum or P. berghei and insecticidal activity against Anopheles subpictus and Anopheles stephensi. More advanced studies were carried out on other Fabaceae species, evaluating their activity with crude extracts and fractions, isolated compounds, and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Conclusions: The most promising antiplasmodial activity of M. pudica was shown by aqueous, methanol, and water/ methanol extracts from the aerial part against P. falciparum FCR-3 strain. In addition, aqueous or ethanolic extracts from the leaves of M. pudica revealed their potential against A. subpictus and A. stephensi.

Authors:   National Institute of Malaria Research, Sector-8, Dwarka, New Delhi, India, Dhiman Ramesh C
Published: May 2023

Background: Post dengue outbreak in July 2018, an entomological survey was undertaken in the Bilaspur district of Himachal Pradesh in India, to identify risk factors for Aedes breeding and subsequently suggest mitigation measures to control the epidemic situation. Method: In view of the clustering of dengue cases, three wards of Diara primary health centre and surrounding villages were selected for the survey. Hand catch method was used to collect adult vectors resting indoors, whereas immature stages of vectors were collected from containers using a ladle. Man-hour density and other vital entomological indices were calculated using the standard methods. Results: An alarming Breteau Index (129), as well as a very high House Index (75), Container Index (32) and Pupal Index (120) were observed during the survey, indicating a dengue outbreak situation. Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, vectors of dengue, were collected from the affected region with man-hour density ranging between 1 and 6.4. Plastic containers and syntax tanks were the major containers observed in households to store water due to irregular water supply. Interpretation & Conclusion: The population was hesitant to discard the stored water due to scarcity and irregular water supply. Plastic containers were the most productive for Aedes breeding. Community knowledge, attitude and practices towards the severity of dengue, its prevention and control were low. The present study recommends that the dengue control strategy should focus on keeping water supply and plastic containers in mind and the community should be mobilised to keep water containers covered properly, or source reduction should be done.

Frontier formation in an Indonesian resource site
Authors: Mukrimin Mukrimin , Acciaioli Greg
Published: May 2023

This article examines the role of transmigration in the formation of a frontier in the Indonesian province of Sulawesi. The "KTM" (Kawasan Terpadu Mandiri – Integrated and Self-Sustained Settlement) initiative, which is funded by the government, provides the primary context. Using ethnographic methods, we identify the first Bugis migration in Indonesia that was funded by the government. The Bugis who settled in Baras were the only ones for whom the state had any involvement in the planning, sponsorship, or endorsement of their relocation from other locations like Sumatra or Kalimantan. We argue that the KTM of Baras has evolved from an agricultural frontier to an economic frontier and, most recently, a frontier focussed on the core issues of political ecology. This focus has arisen because the settlement has taken on the characteristics of an intersection of various types of frontiers. Empirically, this intersection of frontier and the oil palm industry have contributed to transforming the north-western region of Sulawesi.
„Wir sind im Krieg”: Macht, Polarisierung und Protest während der Covid-19-Pandemie in Frankreich
Authors: Almeida Dimitri
Published: May 2023

Der Artikel analysiert die öffentlichen Debatten während der Pandemie und konzentriert sich dabei auf drei Facetten der Gesundheitskrise: (i) die Kriegsmetaphorik und die Heroisierungsrituale, die in den ersten Monaten der Pandemie von der Exekutive eingesetzt wurden, (ii) die Polarisierung um die umstrittene Figur des Didier Raoult und sein Therapieprotokoll gegen das Virus, und (iii) die Geographien des Protestes, die sich im Widerstand gegen die Impfkampagne und die Einführung des Gesundheitspasses formierten. Wenngleich die öffentlichen Reaktionen auf die Pandemie sich in den meisten europäischen Ländern ähnelten, weist Frankreich bestimmte Besonderheiten auf. Diese finden sich unter anderem in der starken zentralistischen Lenkung der Pandemiebekämpfung, im Einsatz von ad-hoc-Expertenkommissionen oder in der Morphologie des Protestes. Der Aufsatz zeigt, wie die Handhabung der Pandemie in vielerlei Hinsicht die kulturellen und politischen Spezifitäten Frankreichs widerspiegelt.

Le présent article se propose d’analyser les débats publics pendant la pandémie en se concentrant sur trois facettes de la crise sanitaire : (i) la métaphore guerrière et les dispositifs d’héroïsation déployés dans les premiers mois de la pandémie par l’exécutif, (ii) la polarisation survenue autour de la figure controversée de Didier Raoult et de son protocole thérapeutique contre le virus, et (iii) les geographies des mouvements contestataires formés en opposition à la campagne de vaccination et à l’instauration du passe sanitaire. Bien que les réactions publiques à la pandémie aient été similaires dans la plupart des pays européens, la France présente certaines spécificités. Celles-ci se retrouvent notamment dans la forte centralisation de la lutte contre la pandémie, dans le recours immodéré à des commissions ad hoc d’experts ou dans la morphologie de la protestation. L’article montre comment la gestion de la pandémie reflète à bien des égards les spécificités culturelles et politiques de la France.

This article analyses the public debates during the pandemic by focusing on three facets of the health crisis: (i) the war metaphor and the devices of heroisation deployed in the first months of the pandemic by the executive, (ii) the polarisation that arose around the controversial figure of Didier Raoult and his therapeutic protocol against the virus, and (iii) the geographies of the protest movements formed in opposition to the vaccination campaign and the establishment of a health pass. Although public reactions to the pandemic were similar in most European countries, France exhibits certain specific patterns. These can be identified among others in the strong centralized response to the pandemic, in the immoderate use of ad hoc expert commissions or in the morphology of protest. The paper shows how the handling of the pandemic in many ways reflects the cultural and political idiosyncrasies of France.

Syntheses of existing literature provide a framework for a broader understanding of the relationships among working environment, workload, work life balance and job satisfaction. This empirical study synthesizes the relevant literature pertaining to the impact of working environment and workload on work life balance towards job satisfaction. The focus of this empirical study is aligned with the Sustainable Development Goal 8 (SDG 8), which is about "Decent Work and Economic Growth". The empirical study comprised various published sources on working environment, workload, work life balance and job satisfaction, such as journals, periodicals, seminal books, and other published materials. The review focused on the relationships of working environment and workload on work life balance and job satisfaction and their dimensions. After analysis of a wide range of renowned literature, it was found that there are opposing findings in previous research with regard to the study area. Empirical evidences further ascertained that there are very few researches related to the job satisfaction, work-life balance, workload and working environment of university non-academic administrative officers in global context. Moreover, existing literature may not fully cover the associations among said parameters towards job satisfaction. Therefore, understanding the relationships among job satisfaction, work life balance, working environment and workload of university nonacademic administrators can be recognized as a needed research scope.

The main objective of this study was to establish the influence of transactional leadership style on strategic plan implementation as moderated by organizational culture in private sugar manufacturing firms. Descriptive and correlational research designs were used. A Structured questionnaire was used to collect primary data from a sample of 144 respondents in private sugar manufacturing firms in western Kenya. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze data. Findings revealed a significant and positive relationship between the transactional leadership style and strategic plan implementation. Further organizational culture did not moderate the relationship between transactional leadership style and strategic plan implementation. The study recommends for leaders in private sugar manufacturing firms to capitalize on transactional leadership style through rewarding staff who accomplish required goals, specifying standards to be adhered to and intervening when issues arise in order to foster effective strategic plan implementation. The current study contributes to the existing literature as it underscores the value of transactional leadership style in accentuating strategic plan implementation in private sugar manufacturing firms. Further it delves into the moderating effect of organizational culture on the relationship between transactional leadership style and strategic plan implementation.

Latterly the community systems are influenced by disruptive scenarios, in practical terms various factors impacting on the effective running of social processes. Among the actors present in the life cycle of the community processes are enlisted the subjects, with roles in the protection and governance of critical infrastructures. Organizations covering these roles have to act accordingly, gathering information on the background, not only to prevent and mitigate the occurrence of risks, contemporarily to govern the operative behavior of their systems. The information collected can be managed in various modalities, using traditional databases or innovative technologies, like blockchain. Present study puts together some considerations identified in other working papers and practical aspects encountered in the management of information to discuss on requirements and proposals. Furthermore contains a high level assessment among the two existing options for particular critical infrastructures in the administration of the information, traditional databases and blockchain.

Share price shows the strength of a business enterprise in the stock market and reflects investors’ perception to earn income in the future. Accounting variables have an impact on share price, however studies on accounting variables and share price have produced conflicting findings, necessitating additional empirical research. This study examined the relationship between accounting variables and share price of Deposit Money Banks (DMBs) quoted in Nigeria. Ex-post facto research design was employed in the study. The population of the study consisted of twenty-two (22) DMBs quoted on the Nigerian Exchange Group (NGX) as at December, 2019. Ten listed DMBs were selected using judgmental sampling technique. Data were collected from audited financial reports of the selected quoted DMBs for 10 years from 2010 to 2019. The study used descriptive and inferential statistics to analyse data. The results indicated that accounting variables without moderating effect of age and firm size impact market share price (MSP) with Adjusted R2 of 0.698, F -Statistic of 46.661 and p-value of 0.000. It was also revealed that with moderating effect of age and firm size, accounting variables significantly affect market share price with Adjusted R2 of 0.699, F-statistic of 33.896 and p-value of 0.000. The study concluded that accounting variables have significant impact on MSP of DMBs. The study recommended that Directors of DMBs in Nigeria should ensure prompt payment of dividends to shareholders and investors should use dividend per share (DPS) to predict MSP of DMBs quoted on the NGX.

ABSTRACT

Coral transplantation is the activity of cultivating/breeding coral colonies using the fragmentation method. This activity is carried out as an effort to prevent damage to the coral reef ecosystem so the existence of coral reefs and the species that live around them can be maintained. Several techniques have been used in transplant activities, but knowledge of the right transplantation technique is needed so the activities can run well. This research aims to determine the effect of different types of substrates used on the growth and growth rate of coral Stylophora pistillata transplanted at three depths at Serangan Beach, so the transplantation activities run effectively and efficiently. The research was carried out for four months from November 2021 to March 2022 through field research using the Randomized Block Design method with two factors, namely the type of substrate used (cement and sand; bricks) and different depths (1 m, 3 m and 5 m). This study used 90 fragments of Stylophora pistillata. The results of the analysis showed that the different types of substrate gave significantly different effects on growth and growth rate at a depth of 1 m. However, at the other two depths, the effect of different substrate types were not differed significantly. The best coral growth and growth rate was seen in corals using cement and sand substrates transplanted at a depth of 1 m with growth of 3,29 cm (height) and 3,93 cm (width), while the highest growth rate was 0,82 cm/ month. (height) and 0,98 cm/month (width).

Background: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a broad spectrum of anatomical hip disorders that ranges from subtle dysplasia to an irreducible dislocation. The present study aimed at evaluating the overall knowledge and perception of DDH among the Saudi Arabian population.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the western region of Saudi Arabia in four major cities (Jeddah, Mecca, Al-Taif, and Al-Madinah) from May 2022 to September 2022. The data were collected using a self-administered online questionnaire distributed through social media platforms. All age groups were allowed to participate in this study regardless of gender.
Results: A total of 463 participants were involved in this study. Over one-third are between 40 and 59 years old (35.2%). The mean knowledge score about DDH was 4.1 ± 3.5 out of 18 (Range 0-15). The prevalence of DDH among the study participants was 1.1%. Only 16.4% of participants heard about DDH, and more than half revealed that social media was the primary source of information. Moreover, family history was the most commonly recognized risk factor for DDH, and leg length discrepancy was the most frequently reported complication of DDH by our participants. Furthermore, we found that age, geographical distribution, educational level, and participants with children diagnosed with DDH were significantly associated with knowledge about DDH.
Conclusion: Our study revealed that the population of the western region of Saudi Arabia showed poor knowledge about DDH. In addition, we found that the prevalence of DDH among the study population was 1.1%. Future research should consider associated factors, and interventions to raise public awareness of DDH should be conducted.
