Authors: Zoccali Ludovica , Talarico Alessia , Lorena Antonio , Reina Rocco
Published: September 2024

In the past few years, in the current organisational context, the impact of Knowledge Management (KM) on Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has become increasingly important for companies in all sectors, as many of them are acting on a larger scale to be competitive in the global marketplace. In fact, KM helps generate sustainable innovation through inclusive CSR implementation practices (Shih, 2024). Companies are required to have a correct approach to Sustainable Knowledge Management (SKM) in order to practice the CSR model. SKM practices promote responsible and ethical knowledge sharing between different stakeholders (Alghamdi et al, 2023) and include several benefits. Promoting innovation and facilitating continuous learning, they ensure the effective and efficient use of KM. That is why this trend focuses on the development and application of innovative technologies. Based on that, this study aims to understand how KM influences CSR considering the role of Technology. The methodological approach is based on a systematic literature review (Tranfield et al, 2003). Particularly, this research was conducted in the three international and multidisciplinary databases – Google Scholar, Scopus and Web of Science – using query strings given by combinations of the keywords: "Knowledge Management", "Corporate Social Responsibility," "CSR," and "Tech*". Subsequently, the resulting scientific documents were selected following the PRISMA guidelines (Moher et al, 2015; Xiao and Watson, 2019), and the data were examined using inductive content analysis. In this article, the authors draw on current literature to identify plausible gaps and discuss future implications of a new perspective. Although the topic is relevant, the findings suggest that academics have many opportunities to examine it.
The Role of Knowledge Engineering, Management and Media in the Knowledge Society: A Research Agenda
Authors: Conti Flávia Pereira
Published: September 2024

This study aims to explore the intersection of Knowledge Engineering, Management, and Media (KEMM) in enhancing innovation and competitive potential within Knowledge-Intensive Organizations (KIOs). The objective is to understand how these fields interact to optimize the management and dissemination of knowledge in the context of the Knowledge Society (KS). A qualitative methodology is employed, using a scoping review to assess interrelated phenomena and map existing literature. This approach involves an exploratory bibliographic strategy and an interpretative analysis to identify key concepts, theories, and gaps in knowledge. The results indicate that effective integration of KEMM significantly improves decision-making, organizational performance, and innovation. The cultural differences in knowledge management models are highlighted, contrasting the American focus on technology with the Japanese emphasis on socialization. It also underscores the need for balancing technological advancements with human skills to foster a sustainable and innovative organizational environment. In the discussion, the paper emphasizes the critical role of KEMM in navigating the complexities of a BANI world (brittle, anxious, non-linear, and incomprehensible) by enhancing resilience and adaptability among workers. The integration of emerging technologies such as AI, machine learning, and digital platforms is shown to facilitate knowledge sharing and collaborative innovation. The conclusion stresses the importance of a holistic approach to KEMM, suggesting that future research should focus on practical applications in real-world scenarios, including education and organizational learning. By leveraging KEMM, organizations can develop more effective business models and contribute to the creation of Human, Intelligent, and Sustainable Cities. This study provides a foundation for further investigations into the synergistic relationships between Engineering, Management, and Media in the knowledge-based economy.
Understanding Professional Dynamics in Elderly Care through an Anthropological Lens
Authors: Di Patrizio Dr. Gabriele
Published: September 2024

The objective of this article is to show how the presence of the professional in the activity he is carrying out is linked to his own anthropological constitution. This pragmatic anthropological research deals with what man makes with himself. It is compared with knowledge from the sociology of work, the activity clinic and ergology to highlight the process of reflective awareness as a means of acquiring self-knowledge in professional action. This process is based on an objective determination of action from several realms whose relevance has been verified in the professions of support and care carried out in nursing homes through the exploitation of a case study. This research aims to identify ways to promote empowerment at work.

Authors:   ,   Cork Institute of Technology, Allen Billy
Published: September 2024

"Steel portal frames in the construction industry typically comprise 1 and H sections. The design procedures for the connections in these frames (base, eaves and apex) are well established. This research is based on using rectangular hollow sections as the column and rafter members. The eaves connection of a rectangular hollow section pitched portal frame is investigated in this report and includes a literature review of various experimental research relating to moment connections between rectangular hollow sections. Three eaves joints were considered in this research. The joints were physically tested in the laboratory and a finite element analysis carried out. An initial design approach for predicting the moment-rotation relationship for the joints was formulated. Good correlation between the laboratory, finite element analysis and initial design approach was found, in particular for the linear elastic behaviour of the connection."

Driving Employee Engagement Through Internal Communication; A Public Relations Perspective: A Case Study Of Cork Institute Of Technology, Ireland.
Authors:   ,   Cork Institute of Technology, Carroll Desmond
Published: September 2024

"This study is concerned with the important role of internal communication (IC) as a driver of employee engagement and investigates how public relations (PR) might be best placed to advise on and oversee a system of managed or strategic communication within an organisation. The literature reveals that a communications culture must pervade an organisation for effective communication to take place. Whilst early models leaned towards a predominant one-way transmission of communication, we are now witnessing a paradigm shift to a horizontal two-way system of communication and engagement. The research methodology employed in this study was a qualitative case study which utilised focus groups and semi-structured interviews as a basis for primary data collection. A central theme examined growing evidence that organisations perform more efficiently and function more effectively where employees are engaged. Communication can help motivate, build trust, create shared identity and spur engagement. Using Cork Institute of Technology (CIT) as a case study, the study examined how internal communications could contribute to fostering a culture of listening and engagement in a large third level educational institution in Ireland. Research findings conclude that employees in CIT want to be part of a communicative and participatory organisation which fosters engagement and consultation. There is substantial evidence to suggest that CIT could benefit from having a strategic internal communications function within the institute. This study recommends that the management of the institute embrace strategic internal employee communications as a vital and effective means to engage employees. Internal communications, managed from the PR perspective of a two-way symmetrical dialogic model of engagement, can lead to the building of a communications culture to the benefit of the whole organisation. Researching and listening to employees provides the starting point."
Consumer Values And Value Change As Influencing Factors Of Future Purchase Decisions In The Automotive Industry
Authors:   ,   Cork Institute of Technology, Uhl Marc
Published: September 2024

"The intense competition in the automotive industry and thus the pressure to correctly evaluate future consumer demands for successful product development provides the context for this thesis. Previous studies have drawn attention towards a potential change of automobile related personal values among younger consumers, yet failed to present a clear picture of this subject. Building on this background, this thesis investigates the automobile related personal value system of a younger and an older respondent group in order to determine the progression of values between both groups. For the first time, a qualitative approach was applied in this context in order to gain insights into the personal values connected to the automobile by each of these groups and to recognise how values have changed between both generations. The unique focus of the theoretical and empirical work conducted in Germany, resulted in a detailed understanding of the automobile related personal value system of both age groups. Most significantly, these findings led to the discovery of a permanent change in characteristic of the automobile related value of self-expression among many younger respondents, which is highlighted due to its high relevance for product development for future consumer groups. This thesis advances academia by illustrating how a qualitative research strategy centred on the comparison of product related values between two age groups can uncover product related values and product related value change among consumers and by introducing a new model of inter-generational value consistency in this context. Focussing not only on current consumers but also on those who are likely to become the actual consumers once a product arrives at the market, an adjusted product development process model is suggested. Automobile manufacturers can directly benefit from the demonstrated research approach and the adapted product development process model, as well as from the detailed understanding of consumer values and consumer value change in relation to the automobile presented in this thesis."
Skin Cancer - Education And Prevention: The Role Of Social Marketing
Authors:   ,   Cork Institute of Technology, Crowley Tim
Published: September 2024

"Skin cancer is the most common cancer in Ireland and worldwide. Skin cancer rates have been steadily rising in recent times. The high use of sunbeds in both Ireland and the UK is quite worrisome. Skin cancer is caused by over exposure to UV rays or through the use of sunbeds and as a result it is actually a highly preventable disease. It is estimated that 90-95% of all skin cancers are preventable. This thesis focuses on the use of social marketing in order to educate people on the dangers of skin cancer with the eventual aim of making recommendations to aid in the prevention of skin cancer. In-depth interviews were conducted with ten leading personnel from skin cancer and social marketing fields. All interviewees reached similar conclusions suggesting that one clear understandable message on the Vitamin D controversy is vital, as well as the importance of not only parental role models but role models in general in the gambit of altering faulty sun protective behaviours. The study showed complete agreement on the dangers of sunbed use especially for adolescents whose bodies have not yet fully developed. All interviewees agreed on the dangers of mixed messaging within skin cancer and other health campaigns where there is a serious danger of campaign literature being completely disregarded due to inconsistent messaging. This necessitates the creation of cross functional campaigns where government agencies work in conjunction with each other and peddle consistent messages to the public. The findings of this study advocate the creation of one Vitamin D message; this communique should mirror the existing directive from the WHO which states 10-15 minutes normal sun exposure two to three times a week is sufficient in terms of gaining adequate Vitamin D levels. The study also shows the importance of the creation of positive role models regarding behaviour change. Significant efforts must be made in order to succeed in finding suitable role models for each segment or target audience. Segmentation was also identified as a key contributor to successfully reaching each audience effectively; messages must be tailored for each specific audience. The study further argues the importance of working with the government so that the enactment of legislation banning sunbeds can be actualised. The importance of multiple messaging coupled with multifarious sun protective techniques such as the application of sun cream, hats, protective clothing and seeking shade are all viable options. Having a multitude of options is imperative when trying to alter faulty sun protective behaviours."
Evaluation Of Novel Low Molecular Weight Antimicrobial Compounds Produced By Lactic Acid Bacteria.
Authors:   ,   Cork Institute of Technology, Guo Jiahui
Published: September 2024

Fungal food spoilage plays a pivotal role in the deterioration of food and feed systems and some fungi are also able to produce compounds toxic for humans and animals. The mycotoxins produced by fungi can cause serious health hazards and include toxins which are cancerogenic, immunotoxic, teratogenic, neurotoxic, nephrotoxic or hepatotoxic effects and Kashin-Beck disease. In addition to this, fungal spoilage/pathogens cause losses of marketable quality and hygiene of foodstuffs, resulting in major economic problem throughout the world. Nowadays, food spoilage can be prevented using physical and chemical methods, but no efficient strategy has been proposed so far to reduce the microbial growth ensuring public health. Recently applications of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have been proposed as natural preservatives. The protection of food products using LAB is mainly due to the production of antifungal compounds such as carboxylic acids, fatty acids, ethanol, carbon dioxide, hydrogen peroxide and bacteriocins. In addition to this, LAB can also positively contribute to the flavour, texture and nutritional value of food products. This review mainly focuses on the use of LAB for food preservation given their extensive industrial application in a wide range of foods and feeds. Emphasis is placed on the several industrial patents concerning the use of antifungal LAB as biocontrol agent against spoilage organisms in different fermented foods and feeds.
An Examination Of The Influence Of Pressure Management And Active Leakage Control In Establishing The Economic Level Of Leakage For An Urban Water Operational Area
Authors:   ,   Cork Institute of Technology, Callanan Mark
Published: September 2024

"Leakage targets in Ireland are based on the Unaccounted for Water (UFW) performance indicator. This has been set out in the National Water Study published by the Department of Environment, Community and Local Government (DECLG) in 2000. This leakage target performance indicator has been maintained since in all government published reports and guidelines. The use of this performance indicator has been discouraged by the International Water Association (IWA) and its use has been discontinued by the UK water industry because it can misrepresent the true level of leakage. The IWA recommends the use of the Infrastructure Leakage Index (ILl) as a leakage performance indicator while the UK water industry recommends its Economic Level of Leakage (ELL) process. Both UFW and ILl are examined as leakage targets. Both are easily understood concepts requiring a reasonably attainable level of information for calculation. The ELL is also examined. It is a more complex process requiring a greater grasp of the characteristics of the area being assessed. The identified benefit of ELL over UFW and ILl as a performance indicator is that it allows the consideration of the economic cost of achieving leakage reduction and the consideration of efforts to reduce pressure in an area. It has been confirmed that pressure reduction is, at present, under-utilised as a leakage reduction tool in many water distribution networks. Examined research has shown that pressure management can significantly reduce leakage levels in a distribution area. When combined with active leakage control it can improve leakage reduction. To utilise these two leakage reduction tools to best effect, it will be necessary to determine the most economic balance of implementation and expenditure on each. It is intended to establish this relationship for case study DMAs in Limerick City Council Water Distribution area for this project. The method used may form the basis for the similar evaluation of other DMAs or larger network areas."

From Self-Care to Earth Care: Uncovering the Role of Self-Compassion in the Link between Environmental Identity and Pro-Environmental Behaviors in Young Men
Authors: Kantar Adem , Yılmazcan Begüm
Published: September 2024

This study explores the role of self-compassion in promoting eco-friendly behaviors among young Turkish men, focusing on how it mediates the relationship between environmental identity and such behaviors. Involving 323 males aged 18 to 49 from Türkiye (M = 22.03, SD = 2.96), it employed self-report measures to assess environmental identity, self-compassion, and eco-friendly behaviors. The findings revealed positive correlations among these factors, highlighting that self-compassion significantly mediates the link between ecological identity and eco-friendly actions. This suggests that self-compassion might be critical in encouraging young males to engage in environmental conservation. The study underscores the potential of nurturing self-compassion as a strategy to promote eco-friendly behaviors in demographics traditionally less engaged in such practices. These findings can open avenues for environmental campaigns and education programs, focusing on psychological aspects to drive behavioral change.

Authors:   , Mogro Ezequiel Gerardo
Published: September 2024

El desarrollo de bioinoculantes a base de rizobios busca mejorar su supervivencia en formulaciones comerciales y aumentar su competitividad en la colonización de la rizosfera. Se plantea que la sobreexpresión de ciertos genes podría mejorar estas capacidades, y que bajo condiciones específicas de cultivo in vitro se podría inducir la expresión de genes clave en Sinorhizobium meliloti, mejorando su competitividad en bioinoculantes. Los objetivos incluyen la caracterización funcional de genes de S. meliloti relacionados con la competitividad rizosférica, la sobreexpresión de estos genes en vectores de amplio rango, y la evaluación del efecto del cultivo en condiciones inductoras. Se identificaron mutantes con fenotipos alterados en la competencia rizosférica y se confirmó el papel de genes clave mediante sobreexpresión. Además, se desarrolló el software ISCompare para identificar secuencias de inserción activas, sugiriendo que estas pueden influir en la plasticidad del genoma y la interacción simbiótica. En conclusión, se demuestra el potencial de la metodología STM-seq para identificar genes relevantes, abriendo nuevas vías para mejorar la competitividad de los rizobios en aplicaciones agrícolas.

Published: September 2024

Aim: Metabolic syndrome is a complex metabolic disorder that includes a group of co-occurring risk factors, such as obesity, hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia. This condition significantly increases the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and type 2 diabetes, making it a significant public health concern worldwide. Additionally, studies indicate possible links between metabolic syndrome and other conditions, such as dry eye syndrome, suggesting that its impact on health is even broader than previously thought. The role of metabolic syndrome in the development of dry eye symptoms is still under investigation.This review presents the possible associations between the individual components of metabolic syndrome and dry eye syndrome. Methods: The research methodology involved conducting a thorough review of scientific articles available through databases such as PubMed and Google Scholar. The team reviewed content from the years 1983–2024, with particular emphasis on the latest advancements. Through systematic organization and validation of the content, 36 of the most reliable publications were highlighted as the basis of the study. Results: According to the most reliable sources, there is an association between the components of metabolic syndrome and the risk of developing dry eye syndrome. Conclusions: Based on the literature review, it can be concluded that dry eye syndrome is associated with risk factors of metabolic syndrome, such as hyperglycemia, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and obesity. The review highlights the need for a holistic approach to patients with dry eye syndrome, including the management of metabolic syndrome risk factors. Effective management of hyperglycemia, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and obesity may contribute to the reduction of dry eye syndrome symptoms and improve patients' quality of life. Further research is needed to better understand the mechanisms linking these conditions and to develop more effective therapeutic strategies.

Published: September 2024

Aim: Cotard’s syndrome is a very rare mental dysfunction which can occur in certain situations. Medical literature describes a multitude of reasons that may turn out to be the cause of this syndrome, like schizophrenia, psychosis or depression. Out of those disorders, depression is the most common, yet it is not often associated with delusional psychoses, which can cause misdiagnosis. Thus, our review focuses solely on Cotard’s syndrome in relation to depression as opposed to other reviews that describe all causes of Cotard’s syndrome. Methods: The research methodology involved conducting a thorough examination of scientific articles accessible through databases like PubMed and Google Scholar. The team reviewed content from 1995 to 2024 with a particular focus on the most recent developments. In the study, older scientific texts were also utilized to present the historical context. By systematically organizing and validating the content, 48 of the most dependable publications were singled out as the primary basis for the study. Results: According to the most dependable sources, Cotard syndrome in most patients occurs in conditions associated with depression. Conclusion: The search for the sources of this syndrome may provide crucial insights, as depending on the primary accompanying condition to Cotard's syndrome, the treatment course may vary. The knowledge of the underlying medical condition from which Cotard's syndrome originates is crucial in planning treatment and determining the length of recovery. It also affects the diagnostic capabilities of medical staff and the speed at which a diagnosis is made. Additionally, it significantly influences the prognosis and frequency of hospitalization. Therefore, understanding the cause of Cotard's syndrome is much more important than simply identifying the occurrence of the syndrome itself. The prognosis also significantly varies depending on the likely cause. In this review we will look for these concerns when the primary accompanying condition is depression.

Strain sensing based on modal interference spectrum in polarization-maintaining fiber
Authors: Shiozaki Tomohiro , Tamura Ariasu , Mizuno Yosuke
Published: September 2024

We investigate a simple structure in which a polarization-maintaining fiber (PMF) is sandwiched between two single-mode fibers (SMFs). By injecting broadband light and observing the modal interference spectrum of the transmitted light in the 870 nm range, we identify a clear shift dependent on the strain applied to the PMF. In addition, we demonstrate that in the same wavelength range, the strain applied to the SMFs before and after the PMF does not influence the interference spectrum. This result confirms that only the PMF segment exhibits strain sensitivity.

Authors: PM Anirudh Reddy , John Lionel , Rosario Mervin
Published: September 2024

Purpose: To evaluate the efcaciousness of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections in treating plantar fasciitis,
focusing on pain relief, functional improvement, and patient satisfaction. A prospective study was Methods: conducted
on 40 patients (15 men and 25 women) who received platelet-rich plasma injections for plantar fasciitis between August 2020 and March 2022.
The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) were used to analyse the results. Results: Of the 40 patients, 31 (77.5%) had
excellent outcomes according to the mean VAS with age for plantar fasciitis, and 9 (22.5%) had good clinical outcomes. At the time of injection,
the mean pain score was 8.45%; at 1, 2, and 3 months, it was 4.925%, 3.375%, and 1.925%, respectively. Conclusion: The signicant results
demonstrate a proportional improvement attributed to platelet-rich plasma injections. This treatment modality resulted in reduced pain, favorable
clinical outcomes, and a decreased need for surgical intervention in managing plantar fasciitis.

Introduction: This study was performed to evaluate association between rst cervical vertebra morphology and
symphysis menti morphology in different growth patterns. Method: The sample of study included 240 lateral
cephalograms, which were collected from department of Orthodontic and Dentofacial Orthopaedics. The lateral cephalograms were traced, by
using Nemoceph software. Depending on this measurement samples were divided into average, horizontal and vertical growth patterns. Tracing
was done for all of these cephalometric lms, 3 linear measurements for the atlas and symphysis menti and 1 angular measurements of symphysis
menti. These measurements were done by using computer software SPSS version 26. Result: The results showed that there was no signicant
difference in rst cervical vertebra parameters but symphysis menti angle and depth had signicant difference in horizontal growth pattern.
Conclusion: It is concluded that in average growth pattern, there is increase in length of cervical vertebra with decient chin and in horizontal
growth pattern, there is decrease in length of cervical vertebra with more prominent chin having more depth than in vertical growth pattern. There
is no correlation between cervical vertebra morphology and mandibular growth rotation but in horizontal growth pattern, there is more prominent
chin than with vertical and average growth patter
ASSESSMENT OF KNOWLEDGE, ATTITUDE, PRACTICE CONCERNING THE INSULIN ADHERENCE AMONG THE ADULT DIABETIC OUTPATIENTS IN TERTIARY CARE CENTRE, PUDUCHERRY

Background India is said to be the diabetic capital of the world. 30% of all diabetics is in insulin therapy. Inadequate
awareness regarding insulin will affect its acceptance & adherence. 1. To assess the knowledge, att Objectives itude,
practice concerning insulin adherence among adult diabetic out patients. 2. To determine the impact of patient counselling about the management
of diabetes on insulin adherence. The present study was cross sectional study carried out among dia Material And Methods betic patients more
than 18 years of age attending to the outpatient department, department of general medicine. The study period was 3 months. Informed consent
was obtained from all the participants included into the study. The sample size was estimated to 100. The data was collected in a semi structured
questionnaire. Statistical analysis was done using descriptive statistics. Results 57% were in the age group 31 to 60 years. 59% were males. 69%
resided in rural areas. The mean knowledge score was 7.58 ± 3.26. The mean attitude score was 7.41 ± 2.18. 76% reported to administer insulin 20
minutes before food. 54% reported to practice rotation of sites while injecting insulin. 21% got eye examined once every year. 31% reported to
have checked HbA1C once every 3 months. 78% reported to have return insulin to shop in case expired. 51% reported to have injected insulin at
90 degrees and subcutaneously. 31% reported economic cause as barrier to use insulin regularly. Conclusion The study population was found to
have moderate knowledge towards insulin. The attitude is more on the positive side. Both the above have reected in the practice to adherence
among the participants
NAVIGATING THE GULF: A CRITICAL REVIEW OF CONTEMPORARY MIGRATION STUDIES FROM INDIA.
Authors: Naik N. Ganesh
Published: September 2024

Migration of people is initiated by a search for food for
survival and,later,by the urge to raise standard of living.With
the development of the concept of "nation-states" in the 19th
century and the instruments of passports during the early
20th century that regulate the cross-border flow of people,the
concept of international migration got the state of being in
common or general use (Torpey,1999).
SPECULAR MICROSCOPY: A REVIEW
Authors: Parasar Vandana
Published: September 2024

Specular microscopy is a non invasive diagnostic tool used to evaluate the corneal endothelial cell morphology,
providing better understanding of corneal endothelial cells directly, which were not accessible before without invasive
method or post mortem evaluation. Imaging endothelial cells helps in diagnosing various endotheliopathies, helping in
pre-operative management and post operative follow-up in various ocular surgeries including cataract and
keratoplasties. It helps to evaluate donor corneas and predicts the visual outcome in keratoplasties at eye-bank settings.
This article aims at understanding corneal endothelial cells morphology, principle and interpretation of specular
microscopy, its clinical application and limitations. A detail PubMed search was done and pertinent references were
included.
