Bariatric surgery is widely recognized as an effective intervention for patients with severe obesity, facilitating significant and sustained weight loss and reducing obesity-related comorbidities. However, the procedure is associated with long-term nutritional deficiencies and metabolic complications, impacting patients’ health and quality of life. This article explores the nutritional and metabolic challenges that arise post-bariatric surgery, particularly deficiencies in vitamin B12, iron, calcium, and vitamin D, alongside complications such as postprandial hypoglycemia, osteoporosis, and dumping syndrome. These issues often result from anatomical modifications and nutrient malabsorption following procedures like Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG). Using a preventive and multidisciplinary approach, we conducted a comprehensive literature review analyzing current studies and clinical practices for managing these postoperative complications. Preventive strategies are emphasized, including tailored multivitamin supplementation, hormonal assessments, dietary modifications, and structured follow-up protocols involving a team of nutritionists, endocrinologists, and physical therapists. Additionally, the paper reviews data on the hormonal shifts in ghrelin and GLP-1 levels, examining their roles in regulating hunger, glucose homeostasis, and postoperative metabolic balance. Our findings underscore the importance of individualized care and proactive management to enhance patient outcomes and mitigate the adverse effects associated with bariatric surgery. By fostering a multidisciplinary approach, this study provides insights into optimizing post-surgical care, ensuring that the long-term benefits of bariatric surgery are maintained while addressing the complex nutritional and metabolic needs of patients.

Proposal of a Standard for the Complete Romanization of Hangul
Authors:   Society for Standards, Certification and Safety, Kim Sun I
Published: January 2025

International organizations are demanding standards for the Romanization of proper names such as personal names and place names. Korea has adopted a transcription method that does not meet international standards, so it must respond to international demands with an transliteration method. In the transcription method, the pronunciation of the Korean is written in Roman letters, and in the transliteration method, Hangul is converted to Roman letters. In this paper, we propose a standard for a complete Romanization of Hangul as an transliteration method. The 24 Hangul jamos are the minimum number of graphemes that can be used to constitute any Hanguls and are a complete set. In this standard, the 24 Hangul jamos are defined as a set of Hangul graphemes, and 24 Roman graphemes corresponding to each Hangul graphemes are selected to create an transliteration table. A system was built in which Hangul and Roman syllables exchange text information through transliteration and retransliteration according to the transliteration table. The system were implemented using human and computer algorithms, and was achieved 100% reversibility of the transliteration. The consistency of the system and the usability in the government agency were also examined by comparing it with other systems. This system enables reading and writing both Hangul and Roman syllables with the minimum number of graphemes, and accurately conveys the pronunciation and meaning of Hangul in Roman syllables by spelling according to the Hunminjeongeum spelling system. This system uses 24 Hangul jamos common to both South and North Korea, so it can be proposed as a standard for both of them. It is believed that this paper will contribute to the establishment of a international standard for romanization of Hangul.
A Study on the Current Status and Improvement Plans of Domestic Standardization Education for Fostering Standards Experts
Authors:   Society for Standards, Certification and Safety, Jun Byoungho , Kang Byunggoo
Published: January 2025

As society advances, the role of standards is expanding and becoming increasingly important. Above all, standardization in the convergence and fusion fields driven by the Fourth Industrial Revolution is expanding. Furthermore, with intensified global competition and the rapid pace of technological innovation, the growing demand for new markets has brought standards into the spotlight as a key factor in national economies, industries, and corporate management. As the importance of standards in the national economy continues to grow, it has become essential to foster skilled professionals who can effectively utilize standards and participate in international standardization activities. Dealing with standards in market activities is crucial, because key tasks related to standards encompass research and development, engineering, new product and process management, and innovation. Major countries around the world recognize the importance of standards and are working to develop a skilled workforce to address this need. Even though South Korea is also committed to fostering standardization professionals to enhance national competitiveness, long-term and systematic standardization education for developing experts in this area is somewhat insufficient despite the qualitative and quantitative growth in the field of standards. However the importance of standards is increasingly emphasized due to the development of convergent fields and advanced industries, and sustainable plans for fostering standardization professionals are being implemented and are currently in progress. This study aims to examine the current status of domestic standardization education for developing experts and explore potential improvement plans. If the expansion of departments specializing in standards, the formation of standardization education consortium, and the development of diverse standardization education content are implemented, it is expected that effective standardization education will be provided, contributing to the rise as a leading standardization nation.

Authors: Benmansour Bouchra Salima
Published: January 2025

Our study, bearing economic importance, focuses on the feeding behavior of the species Oedipoda caerulescens sulferescens in natural ecosystems of the Tlemcen region, Algeria. This indicates whether the grasshopper targets the most abundant plants or if it simply reflects its dietary preferences. We aim to contribute to the study of the feeding habits of a caelifere species to better understand the plant-insect relationship. A floristic inventory of plant species in the study sites was conducted, highlighting the major families. This was followed by an inventory of Acrididae. Then, we employed the method of fecal content analysis, comparing plant epidermal fragments ingested by the insect with those from a reference collection prepared from existing plant species in its biotope.
The faunal inventory reveals the presence of species belonging to the Acrididae family and the suborder Caelifera. Analysis of the nutritional regime revealed a limited number of plant species in the feces, primarily composed of Poaceae and dicotyledons (Asteraceae).

Authors: Houda Berrouk , Asma Necib
Published: January 2025

Earthworms are suggested as bio-indicators of biodiversity and soil quality. This work aims to evaluate the combined and individual environmental impact of cadmium nitrates (Cd-NO2) and mercuric chloride (HgCl2) on an invertebrate of the worm family (Aporrectodea trapezoides) commonly used as a biological model for toxicological studies. Here, earthworms were treated with three increasing concentrations of the two metals (1500, 2000, 2500 ppm /500g soil) for 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours, and hence, the animals’ growth was monitored over 14 days for the mortality assessment. Results showed that the weight growth of A. trapezoids treated with cadmium and/or mercuric chloride significantly reduced during all treatment periods. Based on the mortality results, mercuric chloride is more toxic than the Cd-NO2 and HgCl2 in combination and Cd-NO2 alone on A. trapezoides. Moreover, HgCl2 caused serious morphological abnormalities in the treated earthworms, showing coiling of the body, loss of pigmentation, cut of the posterior part, lesions, or bloody wounds alone.

Authors: Shruthi G , Santosh R
Published: January 2025

This study examines the intersection of gender equality and economic growth within the context of sustainable development in India, focusing on regional disparities in educational attainment and gender development across states and union territories from 2001 to 2021. Utilizing key indicators such as Mean Years of Schooling (MYS) and the Gender Development Index (GDI), the research highlights significant progress in educational outcomes, with female MYS increasing from 3.284 years in 2001 to 5.45 years in 2021. However, persistent gender gaps remain, particularly in low-performing states like Bihar and Uttar Pradesh. The analysis identifies the critical role of targeted educational interventions and gender-sensitive policies in promoting equitable development. High-performing regions, including Kerala and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, exemplify effective strategies that can be replicated in lagging states. Furthermore, the study emphasizes the need for socio-cultural transformation, enhanced healthcare access, and the leveraging of technology to improve educational equity. Key challenges, including plateauing trends in states like Goa and Arunachal Pradesh, necessitate sustained policy efforts to address infrastructural and socio-economic barriers. The findings underscore the importance of public-private partnerships and robust monitoring frameworks to inform policy decisions. Ultimately, the study advocates for a comprehensive approach that prioritizes gender parity and educational equity as pathways to sustainable development, thereby contributing to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in India and fostering inclusive growth for future generations.

Píldora formativa perteneciente al proyecto #NoTodoVale #TrataComoQuierasQueTeTraten: Campaña de sensibilización para promover valores ligados con la igualdad de género. Este proyecto está diseñado e impulsado desde la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación de la Universidad de Sevilla. Está financiado por la Unidad para la Igualdad del Vicerrectorado de Servicios Sociales, Campus Saludable, Igualdad y Cooperación de la citada universidad.

La campaña de sensibilización incluye cinco píldoras audiovisuales en las que se plantean situaciones conflictivas sobre la desigualdad de género en el entorno universitario.

Todas las situaciones presentadas en las píldoras audiovisuales son ficticias y los actores y actrices están simulando lo que ocurre.

Este recurso inicialmente se ha diseñado para estudiantes de las titulaciones relacionadas con la Facultad de Ciencias de la Educación, como Pedagogía, Educación Infantil o Educación Primaria. Sin embargo, se utilizarán para sensibilizar al resto de estudiantes universitarios y pueden emplearse en seminarios, jornadas, talleres extracurriculares y actividades de sensibilización en el ámbito universitario.

Es idóneo para explicar el concepto de micromachismos, que consiste en pequeñas formas de desigualdad de género normalizadas en el día a día, y cómo estas pueden perpetuar estructuras patriarcales. Además, contribuye al entendimiento de la teoría de roles de género y su impacto en los comportamientos y actitudes en entornos universitarios. Este recurso fomenta la reflexión crítica sobre comportamientos diagnosticados en el contexto universitario y puede extrapolarse a las redes sociales. Su uso puede ayudar a entender cómo estos comportamientos afectan a las dinámicas de poder y equidad en la sociedad, para prevenir situaciones de discriminación sexistas.
Espíritu enciclopédico y mentalidad técnica
Authors: Feruglio Ortiz Hector Ariel
Published: January 2025

This work aims to provide some elements for a reflection on the industrialization processes in the province of Catamarca - Argentina in the second half of the nineteenth century. To orient ourselves in this direction, we will start from the project of a genetic encyclopedia proposed by the philosopher Gilbert Simondon as a proposed approach. Then we will analyze the encyclopedic spirit present in the economic writings of Federico Schickendantz and Samuel Lafone Quevedo structured as teaching machines. Finally, we will present the description of two technical objects created by D. Mardoqueo Molina y Bazán elaborated in these writings. We consider that these technical objects provided a paradigm of intelligibility for the construction of certain images of the future of industrial activity in the province of Catamarca in these writings. From our perspective, the lack of a metastable state at the social level, necessary to amplify these images of the future, prevented the development of a technical mentality.
La posición de las partículas atómicas en los artículos fundacionales de la Mecánica Cuántica, 1925-1927
Authors: Pérez Canals Enric , Pié i Valls Blai
Published: January 2025

We present an introductory study of the role of the particle concept in the foundational papers of quantum mechanics. We focus on the period, 1925-1927, which includes the analysis of the first papers by Heisenberg, Born, Jordan, Schrödinger and Dirac, and also the first formulation of Bohr's complementarity. Our aim is to discuss to what extent the concept of particle was questioned among the creators of the new theory, just at the time of its creation and when there was still no agreed or established interpretation. Subsequent developments, such as quantum field theory, put the validity of this concept under suspicion. We show that a historiographical analysis articulated by means of this concept makes it possible to characterize the relationship that the different authors of quantum mechanics maintained with the visualization of atomic processes. In some cases, such as that of Heisenberg, their evolution is particularly significant. Likewise, we will also quote some fragments where the authors considered claim for themselves the legacy of the old quantum theory, trying to legitimize their own developments on the basis of their coherence with the first discoveries of Planck, Einstein or De Broglie. From practically all of them we have found texts in this sense.

Published: January 2025

The franchise sector has contributed significantly to economic growth and development. Yet, franchisee resilience compared to independent business is still debatable. The escalation of franchise failure rates during the COVID-19 pandemic has forced the franchise industry to look forward to a long-term survival strategy that ensures a crisis-resistant franchisee model, which is in dire need of business viability and sustainability. Business-to-business franchisor support is part of franchisee continuity's strategic resources and strategy to steer the business from potential pitfalls. We seek to explore the impact of franchising alliances on franchisee survival during the pandemic crisis. The present study employs the method of structural equation modelling to offer an essential empirical finding on the survival of franchisees within a pandemic recession context linking franchisor support, namely social interaction, service support, financial assistance, assurance, and competence. A survey instrument was employed to gather data from a sample comprising 198 Malaysian franchisees via purposive sampling. Franchisor service support has been found to have a significant impact on franchisee resilience and ability to escape business death and sustain the franchising system. Hence, the study fills the gap in understanding the adequate business-to-business support that franchisees received during the recession that assisted their resilience capability.

Authors: Che Aziz Noor Inani , Wan Zulkiffli Wan Farha , Hasan Hazriah
Published: January 2025

Purposes: In Malaysia, micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) which are dominantly micro-enterprises owned by micro-entrepreneurs (MEs), were facing among the greatest risks to financial security in the midst of the current post-COVID-19 era. MEs' financial situation is at an alarming level, and they need help to increase their financial well-being (FWB). Therefore, it is crucial to understand that group in the FWB study. Among the issues that they face are competition among their counterparts, difficulty in adapting to the current business landscape, which is digital business and the rising cost of living, worsening it by elevating the main problem in MEs, “financial resources”. Therefore, the paper aims (1) to identify major current issues/ factors that contribute to FWB of MEs in Malaysia by extensively reviewing current past literature and (2) to propose a framework that includes predictors of FWB in MEs’ “context”. Methodology: The study reviewed past literature related to FWBs that mainly focused on journal articles from the year (2020 to 2024) primarily using Scopus and Google Scholar databases. Results: Findings from the study included (1) the factors that contributed to FWB, consisting of psychological factors, financial literacy, and financial management practices; and (2) a framework was proposed pertaining to the study. Conclusion: The current study helps to the development of FWB’s framework. According to the findings, it appears that future studies can focus more on the study of MEs’ FWB as the group was very fragile and needs more help in addition to the limited study of the group in FWB’s “context”, especially in developing countries like Malaysia.

Published: January 2025

The continuous international conflict between Palestine-Israel has prompted calls for boycott against for goods and services or brands perceived to be alleged ties or supporting Israel. This study investigates the determinants of consumer boycott intentions in Malaysia, employing the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) as a theoretical framework. A survey of 229 Malaysian consumers was conducted to examine how attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioural control influence intentions to boycott products and services perceived to have connections with Israel. Additionally, the study explores the relationship between boycott intentions and actual purchase behaviour. Structural equation modeling reveals that attitudes (β = 0.688, p < 0.01) and perceived behavioural l control (β = 0.153, p < 0.01) positively influence boycott intentions, while subjective norms do not have a significant effect. Contrary to expectations, no significant relationship was found between boycott intentions and actual purchase behaviour. The model explains 72.7% of the variance in boycott intentions, demonstrating the TPB's efficacy in understanding consumer boycotts within the Malaysian context.

For achieving more efficient recognition results and deployment on mobile devices, a rice blast recognition model was constructed by making lightweight improvements to YOLOv5s. First, using YOLOv5s as the base, GhostConv was introduced to replace standard convolution in its backbone and neck, and LightC3 module was built to improve the C3 module in the neck. This significantly reduced the computational burden and model size. Furthermore, Concat operator was replaced with BiFPN and SE attention mechanism was integrated to maintain accuracy when reducing model complexity. These modifications enhanced the model's ability to capture fine-grained features and multi-scale information. The experimental results showed that the designed model had a 49% decrease in the number of model parameters and a 50% decrease in FLOPs without a decrease in precision on self-built rice blast dataset, compared with the YOLOv5s, achieving the good balance between detection performance and model lightweight. Then, an APP named RiceBlastDetector was built based on the model, achieving accurate detection in the scenario with the different characterization scale disease spots from experiments in the field, which can provide a reference for detecting other crop diseases.

Objective: To assess the functional and aesthetic outcomes of using pectoralis major flaps in patients with head and neck region soft tissue defects after oral squamous cell carcinoma tumors in a resource-limited setting.
Methodology: This prospective study was conducted on patients who received repair of post-ablative defects at the plastic surgery unit of Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences and Bilawal Medical College, Jamshoro, between October 2022 and March 2023. All patients admitted to the plastic surgery unit during the study period for reconstruction of post-ablative defects using subsequent PMC flap repair for head and neck region soft tissue defects after oral squamous cell carcinoma that were surgically treated and aged between 20 and 70 years. All major and minor PMC flap-related and flap-unrelated complications were assessed.
Results: Among 78 patients, 63 (80.7%) were male and 15 (19.3%) were female, with a mean age of 34.10 ±12.10 years (range: 24-70 years). The Buccal mucosa was the most common location for oral cavity cancer, whereas the base of the tongue and floor of the mouth were used for reconstruction. Infections and wound dehiscence were the most common consequences, and the reconstruction site was statistically significant (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Despite encountering a few minor complications both associated and isolated to the PMMC flap, the survival rate of the flap remains high, while the occurrence of complete flap necrosis is extremely rare.

Background: Calciferol has vital role in maintenance of glucose levels by its action on VDR receptors which are located on beta cells of the pancreas after that leading to the surge in insulin secretion as well as improvement of insulin sensitivity offered by an increased expression of insulin receptors
Objective: To determine the effect of Vitamin-D (calciferol) on the control of blood glucose (measured in terms of mean reduction of ≥1 in HbA1c) in calciferol deficient and insufficient diabetics, who have poorly controlled DM-2
Methodology: A Quasi-Experimental trial at the Department of Medicine, Fauji Foundation Hospital, Rawalpindi for 06 months was conducted after, meeting inclusion and exclusion criteria. 115 patients were enrolled and effect of calciferol on levels of blood glucose was assessed by measuring HbA1c levels, and pre-& post calciferol supplementation.
Results: Results showed mean of ages was 57.80 ± 7.64 years, 39(33.91%) patients were male and 76(66.09%) patients were females. On pre-intervention, the mean HbA1C of the patients who participated was 7.99 ± 0.48 while on post-intervention the mean HbA1C of the patients was 7.97 ± 0.48 (p-value=0.7523).
Conclusion: Effect of calciferol on glycemic control (measured in terms of mean reduction of ≥1 in HbA1c) in calciferol-deficient and insufficient diabetics was insignificant. Therefore, vitamin D supplementation appears to have no effect on blood glucose control in diabetes individuals who have low levels of calciferol—both inadequate and deficient—both of which are low.
