Published: October 2023

The purpose of this paper is to determine how COVID-19 shocks and government policies affected MSMEs’ financial and non-financial performance during the economic turmoil. The paper used both quantitative and qualitative methods. An online questionnaire survey was used to collect quantitative data from 380 Saudi MSMEs. The direct effects of the exogenous variables on the endogenous variable were determined using partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). Furthermore, multigroup analysis was used to examine the moderating effect of policy response on other variables. Interviews were conducted from a qualitative standpoint, and the information was converted into texts and qualitatively analyzed. Demand Shocks, Management/Operational Shocks, and Supply Shocks all have a significant impact on financial performance. The only significant predictor of non-financial performance was demand side shocks. Management/operational side shocks, on the other hand, have no effect on the non-financial performance of MSMEs. Furthermore, policy response was found to be a powerful predictor of both financial and non-financial performance. During the COVID-19 outbreak, MSMEs’ policies and assistance programs had no discernible impact on demand and supply side shocks, as well as financial and non-financial performance. Overall, the findings of this study will help the Saudi government and other policymakers determine the best way to deal with current and future COVID-19 pandemics.

External governance mechanisms and capital structure: A cross-country analysis
Authors: Ahmad Syed Raziuddin , Khan Imran Ahmad
Published: October 2023

This paper seeks to examine how external governance mechanisms related to shareholder protection and creditor rights affect the choice of corporate leverage. The main objective of the study is to examine the relationship between country-level investor protection and the choice of capital structure at the firm level. The sample includes 7490 companies from 40 countries. Data were collected from all publicly listed companies between the years 2013 and 2022, listed in the Van Dijk ORBIS Bureau, based on the fiscal year 2022. This paper opts for the panel data methodology. The results suggest that companies leverage themselves consistently with the Pecking Order Theory. It was observed that the mechanisms associated with the protection of both classes of investors (i.e., shareholders and creditors) significantly influence the capital structure of the companies. The results were robust to several variations in the model studied and indicate that greater investor protection makes firms less likely to use third-party capital. The opposition of insiders (executives and majority shareholders) to debt’s moderating role at their managerial discretion may be the driving force behind this. The differential of the study lies in the distinction between the mechanisms that affect the protection of minority shareholders and those that affect the rights of creditors.
Repellency of Oregano (Lippia graveolens HBK): Against Periplaneta americana (Blattodea: Blattidae) from Durango, Mexico in Vitro
Authors: González-Güereca Martha Celina
Published: October 2023

Background: The sewer cockroach is one of the important pests in the health sector due to the microorganisms they carry in their bodies, contaminate food, and mainly affect the respiratory tract. Most chemical insecticides applied to control this pest affect people’s health and in addition to the fact that cockroaches have already become resistant to many of these products. An environmentally friendly alternative in pest control is the use of aromatic plants. The repellency of residual oregano hydrosols from three municipalities of Durango was evaluated in this research. The control groups drank drinking water, and the test groups oregano hydrosols. Insect survival was monitored daily for four weeks. Results: The survival results were successful for the hydrosols of similar chemical composition from Mezquital and Nombre de Dios. These hydrosols additionally produced an insecticidal effect. The analysis of variance of the bioassays showed significant differences for a confidence interval of 95%. The results of the Kaplan-Miers survival analysis showed that oregano hydrosols with higher thymol content were more effective. Conclusions: Oregano hydrosols (Lippia graveolens HBK) contain mainly thymol, are effective in controlling Periplaneta americana, and could reduce insecticide contamination.

Purpose. In the latest years, the interest in scleral lenses is progressively increasing among practitioners and patients from all around the world. An optimal lens ﬁt is necessary to ensure patient comfort and visual quality. However, it is not straightforward to estimate the appropriate scleral lens parameters for a particular patient. This review paper aims to summarize the current state of knowledge in predictors of scleral lens parameters based on corneo-scleral shape. Material and Methods. Literature was reviewed from PubMed. A total of 33 articles were speciﬁcally selected for the current study. Results. Even though not all available corneo-scleral meas- urements may be helpful in the ﬁtting experience, the re- fractive state of the cornea, corneal flattest and steepest keratometry, scleral toricity, and axial length have proven to influence the scleral lens parameters and, consequently, the quality of scleral lens ﬁt. Conclusion. The usefulness of corneal, scleral, and corneo- scleral measures is reviewed and critically evaluated. A special eﬀort was made to highlight the clinical implications of the ﬁndings.

Operative Therapie der rissbedingten Netzhautablösung – ein Blick in Klinik und Geschichte
Authors: Gabel-Pfisterer Amelie
Published: October 2023

Purpose. The aim of this clinical article is to describe the surgical treatment of tear-related retinal detachment in the context of the individual retinal ﬁndings, the lens status and in consideration of the surgical and postoperative risks, taking into account the speciﬁc situation of each patient. Material and Methods. Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment is the result of a retinal tear caused by traction of the vitre- ous on the retina. Liqueﬁed vitreous enters the subretinal space and separates the sensory retina from the pigment epithelium-Bruch’s - membrane complex. As a result, the retina loses contact with the choroid supplying the outer retinal cell layers. The damage caused by the reduced supply, especially to the foveal retina, determines the urgency of surgical treatment. Two very diﬀerent surgical procedures are available for thera- py: buckling surgery and pars plana vitrectomy. Both surgical methods have different indications and risks and are ex- plained on the basis of our own clinical experience, together with other publications on the same subject, also in their historical context. Results. The treatment goal of rhegmatogenous retinal de- tachment is to bring the retina closer to the retinal pigment epithelium, which ‘pumps out’ the fluid from the subretinal space, and reestablishing the retinas contact to the choroi- dal supply. The entry of fluid into the subretinal space must be permanently prevented by induced scarring. Whether a buckling surgery or a pars plana vitrectomy is indicated depends on the respective retinal ﬁndings. The greatest risk after any surgery for a tear-induced retinal detachment is the development of a proliferative vitreoretinopathy and a resulting renewed retinal detachment. Conclusion. Early detection of retinal detachment by the symptoms flashes, floaters, shadows and early binocular oph- thalmoscopy is important to prevent progression of retinal detachment into the fovea and to organize vitreoretinal surgery as soon as possible. The visual prognosis of retinal de- tachments with foveal or macular involvement has improved signiﬁcantly in the last decades.

Improving Health Through Diet
Authors: Khan Ammar Ahmad
Published: October 2023

In an era marked by quick fixes and instant gratification, the age-old wisdom of "you are what you eat" holds truer than ever. Our diet is the cornerstone of our well-being, influencing every aspect of our lives, from physical health to mental clarity. It is both a simple truth and a powerful tool for improving health, and yet, it often remains underutilized in our quest for a healthier life. This editorial underscores the importance of harnessing the transformative potential of a balanced and mindful diet to enhance our health and overall quality of life.

It's abundantly clear that the modern diet has strayed far from the path of whole, nutrient-rich foods. The preponderance of processed, sugary, and heavily refined foods has left a trail of health issues in its wake. Obesity, heart disease, diabetes, and a plethora of other chronic conditions are now rampant, but they are not inevitable. By embracing a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats, we can take charge of our health. A diet centered on these elements provides our bodies with the essential nutrients needed for growth, repair, and optimal function, while also reducing the risk of chronic illnesses.

Moreover, the benefits of a wholesome diet extend beyond physical health. Research continues to demonstrate the strong connection between our diet and mental well-being. The foods we consume have a profound impact on our mood, cognitive function, and emotional resilience. By choosing a diet that includes brain-boosting elements like omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and a balanced intake of essential nutrients, we can significantly enhance our mental health. Additionally, practicing mindful eating – paying attention to what we consume and how it makes us feel – fosters a deeper appreciation for the nourishment we provide our bodies, reinforcing the notion that we have the power to make healthier choices.

In conclusion, our diet is the bedrock of our health, affecting us in ways both seen and unseen. To embark on a journey toward improved well-being, we must recognize the profound influence of our food choices and commit to nourishing our bodies and minds wisely. By prioritizing whole, nutrient-dense foods and adopting a mindful approach to eating, we can not only prevent and alleviate health issues but also foster a greater sense of vitality and contentment. The path to improved health through diet is a choice, and it's a choice we all can make for a healthier, happier life.

Welzijn op Recept is an intervention in which general practitioners refer patients with psychosocial problems to community social wellbeing organisations. The Landelijk Kennisnetwerk Welzijn op Recept asked a group of students to conduct research into the current collaboration between general practitioners and social work organisations. The research was conducted from October to December 2021. The qualitative study centred on investigating the key challenges and potential solutions related to the implementation of Welzijn op Recept, particularly focusing on existing referral and feedback systems, as perceived by various stakeholders, including General Practitioners, wellbeing coaches, municipalities, health Insurers, and providers of digital referral systems. The participants in this study were selected by the case provider. A total of 15 professionals were interviewed and semi-structured interviews were conducted. This research has shown that the interviewees experienced several bottlenecks in the current process. The results show that the largest bottlenecks currently are the need for a compatible digital referral system, a lack of familiarity and the need for building a relationship between the general practitioner and wellbeing coach

Het verbeteren van de gezondheid van bewoners in de Veenkoloniën vraagt een andere manier van denken over en werken aan gezondheid. Bewoners in deze regio hebben meer gezondheidsproblemen en maken meer gebruik van de zorg dan de gemiddelde Nederlander. Alle goede bedoelingen ten spijt, heeft de aandacht voor gezondheid in de afgelopen jaren teleurstellend weinig opgeleverd. Er wordt nog te vaak ‘voor’ in plaats van ‘met’ bewoners nagedacht.
Het programma Kans voor de Veenkoloniën heeft als doel om het anders te doen. In acht jaar wordt geprobeerd de leefsituatie en de gezondheid van bewoners in deze regio te verbeteren. Het betreft een complex vraagstuk, waar geen eenduidig antwoord of eenvoudige oplossing voor is. Een reflexieve monitoring faciliteert het samen werken en leren door bewoners, beleidsmedewerkers, professionals, bestuurders en onderzoekers.
In dit artikel besteden we aandacht aan de kloof tussen de leef- en systeemwerelden, die door alle betrokkenen in de monitoring is geagendeerd. Samen met betrokkenen zijn drie denkrichtingen geformuleerd waarmee de leef- en systeemwerelden beter met elkaar kunnen worden verbonden. Allereerst is het van belang om samen een passende visie op gezondheid te ontwikkelen die aansluit bij wat voor bewoners belangrijk en haalbaar is. Ten tweede is het van belang om bewoners meer zeggenschap te geven, op bestuurlijk, beleidsmatig en uitvoeringsniveau. Tot slot is het van belang lokaal te experimenteren met manieren waarop een balans kan worden gevonden tussen de systeem- en leefwerelden en daar ook geleerde lessen uit te trekken voor het werken aan gezondheid in andere delen van Nederland. Binnen Kans voor de Veenkoloniën wordt op alle drie de denkrichtingen ingezet en wordt gewerkt aan een toekomstbestendige doorontwikkeling hiervan

Concept-based instruction grounded on Vygotsky’s Theory of Mind: Developing heritage Spanish students’ metalinguistic knowledge on the subjunctive mood
Authors: Sanchez Ana
Published: October 2023

This paper examines the benefits of using Concept-Based Instruction, (CBI), grounded on Vygotsky’s Theory of Mind (Vygotsky, 1986), to develop heritage Spanish students’ metalinguistic knowledge on the Spanish subjunctive mood. Metalinguistic knowledge refers to the explicit and conscious knowledge students have about the linguist structures and overall characteristics of a language. It “is knowledge that students can explain and verbalize. Vygotsky’s Theory of Mind is based on the notion that development of language takes place when it is internalized and verbalized.Heritage Spanish (HS) students acquire the heritage language (HL) in informal, natural settings through interaction with family, friends, and community members. However, the heritage language input starts to diminish once students are enrolled in formal education, and English becomes the language of instruction (Montrul, 2020). It is then, that at an early age, HS students begin formal schooling in English, and many of the Spanish linguistic features, which had started to be acquired are halted. The lack of opportunities to have formal instruction in the heritage language has been one of the causes of incomplete heritage language acquisition, language attrition, or language loss (Rothman 2007; Pires & Rothman, 2009; Delgado, 2009). The Spanish subjunctive is one of the first linguistic features that suffers erosion since it is not fully developed when HSs enter formal education, and the main language of instruction is English (Potowski, Regerski, & Morgan-Short, 2009).Unfortunately, when HS students attempt to re-learn their heritage language in higher education, the instructional approaches are meant to meet the needs of the non-native Spanish students (Eckerson, 2015), which are mixed with HS students in most higher education institutions in the United States. Vygotsky’s Theory of Mind (Vygotsky, 1986) has motivated concept-based instruction to learn conceptual categories of a language such as mood, aspect, and tense. The main tenet of CBI is to develop performance not just competence on language concepts.
Stitching the social fabric of society
Authors:   , Swinkels Lise Tilla Anne
Published: October 2023

Forensic psychiatric patients often have complex care needs for which effective multimodal treatment is required. At the same time, evidence-based interventions are scarce and can be improved. A supportive social network has been extensively related to increased mental health and wellbeing and reduced criminal recidivism in general and psychiatric populations. Therefore, the central aim of this dissertation was to examine whether an additive informal social network intervention could improve treatment outcomes among forensic psychiatric outpatients. The findings revealed that social network interventions could be effective in improving supportive social networks and treatment outcomes in psychiatric patients. For forensic psychiatric outpatients, social network interventions in which community volunteers engage in supportive relationship and social activities with outpatients, are feasible and promising in reducing hospitalization duration and criminal behavior. Altogether, the findings in this dissertation indicate that a collaboration paradigm between forensic psychiatric care and informal care could further improve treatment outcomes in patients with complex problems and care needs. However, since patient engagement was challenging, barriers and facilitators should be considered to optimize the implementation of social network interventions for individual patients in forensic psychiatric care. We hope that this research will encourage clinicians to incorporate informal social network interventions into treatment programs and guide policy makers. Furthermore, we emphasize that future research is needed to determine which patients benefit from which types of social network interventions to better understand and optimize the effectiveness of these interventions in forensic psychiatric care.

Authors: Veras Rayssa Scarlett Silva , Pereira Paulo Sérgio Velten , Costa Mônica Teresa Sousa
Published: October 2023

O presente artigo tem como objetivo dissertar acerca da autonomia privada e da dignidade da pessoa humana, como conceitos fundantes do Direito Privado. Para isso, far-se-á a adoção do caso Alyne Pimentel versus Brasil como um marco histórico e temporal que trata de violência obstétrica como um tipo de violência de gênero. Em sequência, buscar-se-á a boa-fé objetiva, por meio de seus dispositivos localizados no Código Civil, a fim de utilizar no plano interpretativo da boa-fé os standards para solucionar os problemas de casos concretos. Por fim, utilizar-se-á a teoria do abuso do direito com viés crítico para abarcar a relação médico-paciente e o não cumprimento adequado da relação negocial.

Authors: Teixeira Maria Eugênia Macedo , Santos Andressa Dantas de Moura , Mesquita Laiana Sepúlveda de Andrade
Published: October 2023

O Transtorno de Déficit de Atenção com Hiperatividade (TDAH) é um distúrbio psiquiátrico crônico do neurodesenvolvimento de etiologia complexa e multifatorial, envolvendo desde fatores genéticos à distúrbios do sono, podendo ser classificado em: predominantemente desatento, predominantemente hiperativo-impulsivo ou tipo combinado. A necessidade de uma abordagem de tratamento complementar vem ganhando destaque, dentre elas encontra-se a terapia manual, que através da manipulação não invasiva do tecido fascial reduz e/ou elimina as restrições entre as vísceras e os componentes musculoesqueléticos promovendo o relaxamento, bem-estar, e alívio de sintomas como insônia, ansiedade, irritabilidade e medo. Dessa forma, o objetivo desse estudo foi analisar, através de uma revisão sistemática, o potencial terapêutico da terapia manual na redução dos sinais e sintomas do TDAH. Foram selecionados 5 artigos, sendo inclusos aqueles que investigaram a aplicação de técnicas de terapia manual em pacientes com TDAH e que estavam disponíveis em português, inglês ou espanhol. Os estudos analisados apontaram de forma consistente para a eficácia da terapia manual na melhoria dos sinais e sintomas apresentados por pacientes com TDAH, e mesmo com o número limitado de artigos disponíveis, as intervenções fisioterapêuticas exploradas nesta revisão sistemática mostram-se promissoras para a inclusão no tratamento multidisciplinar do TDAH.

Introdução: Sabe-se que as hidrofibras atendem todos os requisitos que favorecem a cicatrização de lesões e podem liberar substâncias ativas para estimular o processo de cicatrização, evitar ou combater infecções tendo em vista que a infecção é o fator mais prejudicial da cura de uma ferida. Objetivo: O objetivo do trabalho busca verificar a eficácia do curativo a base de hidrogel ou hidrofibra com prata no processo de cicatrização de feridas crônicas dos pacientes, quando comparado com as coberturas de Alginato com Prata. Métodos: Trata-se de uma pesquisa bibliográfica do tipo revisão integrativa, em que foram selecionadas algumas bases de dados para serem utilizados para a busca, que foram: Scientific Eletronic Library Online (SCIELO) e na Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe em Ciências da Saúde (LILACS) e Base de Dados da Enfermagem (BDENF). Resultados: Analisando os valores pagos por internação pelo SUS, a média por internação foi de R$ 633,97 – 4.945,00, variando de R$ 96,95 a R$ 2.410,18, com mediana de R$ 503,41. O custo total foi de R$ 69.103,03, visto que os serviços hospitalares foram responsáveis por 70%, e os serviços profissionais por 27%. É sabido que o curativo ideal deve ser úmido, pois o ambiente seco provoca desidratação e morte celular, prejudicando a cicatrização. A umidade favorece o ambiente da ferida, promovendo a migração celular e estimula a epitelização. Conclusão: Seu uso ainda não está difundido nas instituições públicas de saúde do Brasil e não consta nos manuais de tratamento de feridas do Ministério da Saúde.

Financial Inclusion: Strategies for Rural Prosperity: Leads to Sustainable Business
Authors: Kumar Abhijeet
Published: October 2023

To help the uninsured and the needy in rural areas, you need to provide them with access to low-cost financial services. The Indian government's financial inclusion policy simplifies the process of conventional, institutionalized lending to promote savings. People with low incomes have the less financial cushion to absorb shocks in the economy. Indirectly, formal banking services aid the financially vulnerable by allowing them to save money. If sufficient and explicit funding is made accessible, mass entrepreneurialism can increase productivity and prosperity. That continues indefinitely. Assuming you've accomplished your core objectives, ensure they remain unchanged. Instead of being an objective or a plan of action, sustainable development and financial inclusion are just goals. It hopes to help India and its poor citizens join the modern world. Giving them access to low-cost, dependable, and readily available means of creating and improving their means of subsistence is one way to lift people out of poverty and foster a sense of agency and independence. The success of financial inclusion depends on people being able to open bank accounts and on financial institutions providing high-quality services and the necessary infrastructure.

Authors: Onyekachi Ukonu Micheal
Published: October 2023

Extreme weather conditions have been the order of the day for several decades around the world, caused by manmade and natural factors. Mass media, especially newspapers, have been credited as being well placed to tackle societal problems like environmental challenges through the framing of the important issues for the general public. The present study examines newspaper framing and attitude to environmental challenges in Nigeria. The survey part of the study covered the five states in Southeast Nigeria, namely, Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu, and Imo. Four national dailies (the Daily Sun, The Guardian, The Nation, and Vanguard) were content analysed for a period of two years (2020 and 2021). Results showed that the environmental challenges most reported by the Nigerian newspapers were climate change, and desertification. The frames used by the newspapers in reporting environmental challenges, in their order of magnitude are mitigation, government efforts, and public reaction. There is a strong relationship between attitude to environmental challenges and the framing used by the newspapers. There is a moderate but significant (p < 0.05) correlation between respondents’ knowledge level and newspaper framing of environmental challenges. The implications of the findings have been discussed in the study.
