Morphogenesis and molecular regulation of polyposis rhinosinusitis
Authors: Matveeva N.Yu. , Pavlush D.G. , Kalinichenko S.G.
Published: February 2025

Polyposis rhinosinusitis (CRSwNP) is a heterogeneous proliferative disease characterized by inflammatory hyperplasia of the nasal mucosa with dysregulation of apoptosis and cell differentiation. The review summarizes data on the molecular cellular mechanisms of CRSwNP and presents the concept of intercellular signaling during polyposis growth. Various factors that form a specific endotype are involved in the development of a polyp. Features of morphogenesis make it possible to distinguish edematous, eosinophilic and fibrous NP. In all cases, markers of neurogenic inflammation, impaired expression of proinflammatory cytokines, NO synthase, BMP-2 and other morphogenetic molecules arerecorded. The growing polyp and the inflammatory reaction damage the epithelium of the mucous membrane and bone wall of the nasal cavity. Interleukin-1β and BMP-2 are an integrative link in the pathogenesis of these events.

The hydrogeology and chemical quality of ground waters from the lower Paleozoic aquifers in the Tri-State region of Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma
Authors: Macfarlane P. Allen , Hathaway Lawrence R.
Published: February 2025

The lower Paleozoic aquifers (principally the Cambrian-Ordovician) are an important resource producing freshwater for municipal water supplies, industry, and agriculture in southeast Kansas, southwest Missouri, and northeast Oklahoma (the Tri-State region). These aquifers produce oil in Labette and Montgomery counties in Kansas. Aquifers in undifferentiated Mississippian and Cambrian-Ordovician carbonate rocks comprise the lower Paleozoic aquifer system. The Mississippian and Cambrian-Ordovician aquifers are generally separated by confining layers of shale and dense dolomite except in areas of southern Cherokee County, Kansas; northern Ottawa County, Oklahoma; and Jasper and Newton counties, Missouri. Both aquifer systems seem to be interconnected in these areas on the basis of the hydrogeochemistry and the hydraulic-head differences between the aquifers. The undifferentiated Mississippian is unconfined where the unit is at the surface in the southeastern part of the study area. Along the Kansas-Missouri state line, ground-water flow in both aquifers is generally westward except in the vicinity of municipal and industrial well fields where large-scale withdrawals of ground water may have changed the prevailing direction of ground-water flow. Very little hydrologic data are available for the Mississippian aquifer. Three ground-water regions can be broadly defined in the Cambrian-Ordovician aquifer reflecting the mixing of fresh and saline waters. From east to west, one encounters: 1) a freshwater portion containing Ca-HCO3-type ground waters; 2) a transition zone where the total dissolved solids and the contribution from NaCl-type waters increase rapidly in a westerly direction; and 3) a saline portion containing sodium chloride brines. The Mississippian outcrop is the approximate boundary of the freshwater transition zone. The 2,500 mg/L isochlor is taken as the boundary of the saline transition zone. Sulfide concentrations >0.2 mg/L are associated with ground waters west of the Mississippian outcrop. These three zones in the Cambrian-Ordovician aquifer evolved over geologic time as freshwater recharge entering the aquifer in the Ozark region of Missouri flushed saline waters from large portions of the study area. The distribution of radium-226, uranium, and uranium-234/uranium-238 activity ratios in waters from the Cambrian-Ordovician aquifer is consistent with a freshwater transition zone and saline hydrogeochemical partitioning of the aquifer. The manner in which these parameters change from the freshwater to transitional environments suggests that the source of radium-226 in the eastern part of the transition zone is largely from the radioactive decay of uranium precipitated on surfaces in the carbonate aquifer in the comparatively recent geologic past. The relative enrichment of radium-226 in waters from the saline portion of the aquifer system is problematic.

Implementation and Problems of Education Based on Gender Equality, Disability, and Social Inclusion at Schools in Indonesia
Authors: Muafiah Evi , Susanto Susanto , Warsah Idi , Puspitasari Desi , Puspita Ayunda Riska
Published: February 2025

Inclusive education in Indonesia requires a serious study on the discourses concerning gender equality, disability, and social inclusion. Hence, this study aimed to uncover the implementation of education based on gender equality, disability, and social inclusion at schools in Indonesia. This study also sought to identify the problems faced by teachers in teaching based on gender equality, disability, and social inclusion. By adopting an explanatory mixed-method design, the first objective was attained by implementing a quantitative survey on 315 teachers of elementary and secondary schools in Indonesia. A descriptive qualitative method was further conducted by involving 30 teachers to confirm the foregoing quantitative data. The second objective was attained by conducting a descriptive qualitative study with the involvement of the aforesaid 30 teachers who had been selected purposively. This study found a moderate implementation of gender equality, disability, and social inclusion education. However, teachers at some schools faced problems related to gender stereotypes, non-inclusive curriculum, unsupportive social expectations, lack of knowledge in teaching students with disabilities, limited resources, and difficulties in adapting teaching methods. This study highlights the need to address stereotypes, promote inclusive education for students with disabilities, and combat social injustice and resource limitations for inclusive teaching.
TARAS SHEVCHENKO'S STORY "THE TWINS": A MODEL OF ARTISTIC THINKING
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Fan Rui
Published: February 2025

B a c k g r o u n d . The article presents a detailed analysis of Taras Shevchenko's russian novel "The Twins". The main attention is paid to the study of the model of the author's artistic thinking through the analysis of the text of the work and its ideological and thematic orientation as a context in which the author's vision of the world is formed.
M e t h o d s . In the article, the author uses philological, historical-literary and biographical research methods.
R e s u l t s . The author of the article defines the syncretic nature of the story, which means a combination of features of various literary trends, such as romanticism, enlightened realism, and sentimentalism. The emphasis is placed on the multifacetedness and multiplot of the work. The system of images in the story is analyzed in detail, the role of the characters in the artistic structure of the work is revealed. The attention is paid to the secondary image of a woman in the work. Emphasis is placed on the means of implementing the model of artistic thinking in the story. Special attention is paid to the image of the narrator, the use of epistolary, diary entries and descriptions of Ukrainian nature. The narrator's impressions and emotions about the city of Kyiv are described purely in the Ukrainian spirit. The article discusses the topics of education, upbringing, military career, and university environment. The author analyzes Taras Shevchenko's perception of these issues from the standpoint of a national vision. The military environment is interpreted as a sphere in which corrupt characters are formed. Taras Shevchenko warns everyone against getting carried away by military education and a career that was popular in those times. Instead, university upbringing and education are presented and characterized with great piety.
C o n c l u s i o n s . The article presents an artistic interpretation of the factors and factors that influence the formation of personality and its further realization in life, which helps to reveal the deep psychological and sociocultural aspects of the work. The emphasis is placed on the important role through which character traits inherent in a person are realized, as well as new ones are formed. The thesis about the presentation of the writer's national model of thinking in the work is argued, considering popular ideas about the historical realities of that time.
FRENCH-SPEAKING TRANSLATIONS OF SHEVCHENKO'S POETRY: PROBLEMS AND PERSPECTIVES
Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Chystiak Dmytro
Published: February 2025

B a c k g r o u n d . Contemporary translation studies are increasingly attracting the attention of Ukrainian philologists, which is in line with poststructuralist trends in interdisciplinary studies in the humanities. The symbolic figure of Taras Shevchenko can become a model for conceptualising the image of Ukraine abroad, taking into consideration the exceptional role of his work in the formation of Ukrainian literature, and therefore the problem of reception and interpretation of his work through translation seems extremely relevant. The purpose of our article is to highlight the problem of reception and interpretation of Taras Shevchenko's poetry in the French-speaking cultural space in order to identify problems and perspectives for further analysis.
M e t h o d s . A diachronic translation analysis of translations of Taras Shevchenko's poetry into French with a comparative study of diasporic and national translation traditions in the broader socio-cultural context was carried out.
R e s u l t s . It has been established that the representation of Shevchenko's literary works is associated with two main vectors – diaspora and Soviet as well as some synthetic projects. The first vector is characterised by the need for uncensored reception, but the aesthetic function of such publications is mostly inferior to the informative one, which does not contribute to the involvement of a wide range of recipients. Instead, Soviet-era editions of Shevchenko's works, also with a limited audience, are characterised by a more perfect adherence to the rhythmic and melodic structure of the original text, although their reception in literary and sociocultural discourse is reduced in accordance with the semiotic context of Soviet ideology. The newest editions of Shevchenko's poems edited by T. Syrochuk and D. Chystiak present uncensored versions of the translations from the original, but it is important to preserve the figurative and symbolic level of the works and an adequate reception of the writer's worldview, as well as to establish appropriate promotion mechanisms for introducing them to the broader French-speaking cultural context.
C o n c l u s i o n s . It should be concluded that a fundamental edition of Shevchenko's works in French is yet to come. It should be based on the best of E. Guillevic's translations, with a critical reconsideration of the diaspora editions edited by A. Zhukovsky, as well as the Soviet editions and the publication edited by T. Syrotchuk. At the same time, it is necessary to emphasise the need to prepare such a publication at the international level, with the involvement of a renowned French poet to translate and edit the book and to ensure its promotion in a prestigious poetry series, so that Shevchenko's name can be properly introduced into the French-speaking cultural context.
Instability of the endoprosthesis of the proximal interphalangeal joint of the hand. Features of surgical treatment
Authors: Fedonov Pavel V. , Kovalev Dmitry V. , Nikolaev Nikolai S. , Mikhailov Anatoly S.
Published: February 2025

In recent decades, there has been a significant increase in interest in primary endoprosthetics of the proximal interphalangeal joint in the world. At the same time, an increase in the number of operations entails an increase in the number of audit interventions. The purpose of the study was to consider the features of instability of the endoprosthesis of the proximal interphalangeal joint of the hand, types of revision interventions and treatment outcomes on the example of the federal trauma and orthopedic center. Materials and methods. The analysis of the gender and age composition of patients, the number of revision operations, possible causes of instability of the endoprosthesis, localization of unstable endoprosthesis and its type, the service life of the structure, surgical approaches. The depth of the study is 15 years. Results. Among 95 performed operations for primary endoprosthesis of the proximal interphalangeal joint, 15 cases of instability of the components of the endoprosthesis (15.8%) were revealed in 14 patients. There was 1 periprosthetic fracture, 2 cases of implant fracture; instability of components - 12 cases (80%) associated with injury, increased physical activity and other causal factors. The maximum failure rate was detected on the 2nd finger (31.6% of the number of initially installed endoprostheses). After primary endoprosthesis, instability was most often detected in relation to related endoprostheses (SBI D.G.T. PIP joint implant and RM Finger Mathys). The option of repeated intervention in two cases was PMFS arthrodesis (16.7%), in 11 - revision arthroplasty (83.3%). Conclusions. Despite a significant proportion (15.8%) of unfavorable outcomes of primary surgery (the most common cause is instability of the endoprosthesis), the service life of structures reaches 10 years in some cases and probably depends on the type of endoprosthesis (associated more often lose stability) and on the patient's occupation (hard physical labor). In general, revision arthroplasty of the proximal interphalangeal joint allows to maintain joint mobility, statistically significantly reducing the intensity of pain syndrome.

The main purpose of this paper is to investigate abundant exact traveling wave solutions (TWSs) of the (3+1)-dimensional Jimbo Miwa model utilizing the innovative auxiliary equation technique. By applying this powerful technique, the obtained solutions reveal and elucidate various types of waves, which are essential for comprehensive studies of complex phenomena such as ocean dynamics and other related scientific and engineering areas. The auxiliary equation method has proven successful in yielding new and analytical soliton solutions, including trigonometric functions, rational functions, hyperbolic functions, and exponential functions for the given model. The results of these solutions are represented using 3-D, contour, and combined 2-D graphs, offering a more detailed and insightful visual interpretation. In particular, the velocity effect becomes more comprehensible when analyzing the 2-D plots. This paper also includes further phase plane analysis of the model to examine the solutions' behavior and characteristics. The results of this investigation have been compared with other researchers' findings available in the literature. This technique proves highly effective for various nonlinear models in generating innovative soliton solutions, which are essential in applied science and engineering.
Johann von Kitscher’s Tragicomedy: Between History, Literature and Theatre
Authors: Buszewicz Elwira
Published: February 2025

Artykuł umieszcza w szerszym kontekście sztukę saksońskiego autora Johanna von Kitschera Tragicocomedia sive de Iherosolomitana profectione Ilustrissimi Principis Pomeriani, wydaną w Lipsku w roku 1501, poświęconą wyprawie księcia Bogusława X do Jerozolimy i będącą pierwszym humanistycznym dramatem w Księstwie Pomorskim. Po krótkim przybliżeniu sylwetki autora oraz wspomnieniu genezy dzieła i jego znaczeniu dla życia teatralnego w Szczecinie utwór zostaje wprowadzony w kontekst renesansowej „debaty o teatr”, który Kitscher starał się ukazać jako rzecz „godną”, przywołując przedstawienie, jakim uczczono księcia Bogusława i jego towarzyszy na uczcie w Wenecji. Wreszcie ukazany zostaje warsztat twórczy autora i techniki, za pomocą których przetwarza historię w literaturę. Zwraca się też uwagę, że dzięki zaistnieniu na rynku czytelniczym polskiego tłumaczenia utworu odbiorca może go poddać krytycznemu oglądowi i zadać sobie pytanie, czy tekst ten jest nadal „żywy”.
Szczecin Municipal Theatre – Only Views Remain
Authors: Gwiazdowska Ewa
Published: February 2025

Widoki teatru miejskiego w Szczecinie zaczęły powstawać w najbliższych latach po jego otwarciu w 1849 r. i tworzone były aż do czasu rozebrania gmachu w 1953 r. Były to grafiki i fotografie dość ściśle związane z losami budowli. Najpierw promowały jej wzniesienie, następnie obchody pięćdziesięciolecia i unowocześniającą przebudowę na przełomie wieków. W okresie międzywojennym upowszechniały widok instytucji ważnej dla kultury miasta. W drugiej wojnie światowej wygląd ruin. Ikonografia teatru od początku jej tworzenia upamiętniała także otoczenie gmachu i dokumentowała zachodzące w nim zmiany – przebieg wałów fortecznych, wykorzystywanie placu przed teatrem jako promenadę, stopniową zabudowę otoczenia kamienicami, założenie brukowanych ulic i wytyczenie alei spacerowej, której perspektywę zamykał teatr.
Between Western Pomerania and Greater Poland: the formation of the District Public Security Office in Gorzów Wielkopolski in 1945 and its first heads
Authors: Rymar Dariusz A.
Published: February 2025

W artykule opisano niejasny do tej pory początek działalności Powiatowego Urzędu Bezpieczeństwa Publicznego w Gorzowie. Jak wynika z przeprowadzonych badań, gorzowski PUBP powstał 17 maja 1945 r. Jego organizatorami byli trzej funkcjonariusze przysłani tu z zachodniopomorskiego Wojewódzkiego Urzędu Bezpieczeństwa Publicznego. 26 lipca 1945 r. PUBP został podporządkowany WUBP w Poznaniu. Dwaj pierwsi kierownicy PUBP (Marian Wojtalik i Henryk Bajszczak) okazali się, z perspektywy ich przełożonych, osobami zupełnie nieprzygotowanymi do swoich zadań. Wojtalik po dwóch miesiącach przestał pełnić swój urząd, a jego następca okazał się zwykłym przestępcą: mało interesował się działalnością podwładnych, tolerował ich bezprawne działania, a także sam dopuszczał się działań pozaprawnych. Trudno wyjaśnić, dlaczego nie został za nie skazany pomimo licznych, spójnych ze sobą zeznań swoich podwładnych. Skazano go tylko na rok pozbawienia wolności za dwa nielegalne wyjazdy do Berlina. Z kolei trzeci z kierowników (Stanisław Zagórski) okazał się tym „właściwym”. Jak się okazało później, jego gorliwość brała się z niejasnej, kryminalnej przeszłości. PUBP w Gorzowie przez pierwsze pół roku działalności stał się bardziej znany z bezprawnych działań niż z zapewnienia osadnikom bezpieczeństwa.
The importance of the Bydgoszcz crisis in 1981 in the political career of Marian Jurczyk
Authors: Siedziako Michał
Published: February 2025

Kryzys bydgoski był jednym ze zwrotnych momentów w karierze politycznej Mariana Jurczyka, który znajdował się wówczas w samym centrum ogólnopolskich wydarzeń, wchodząc w skład Krajowego Komitetu Strajkowego i kilkuosobowej grupy reprezentantów kierownictwa „Solidarności” na czele z Lechem Wałęsą. Grupa ta prowadziła rozmowy z przedstawicielami rządu PRL, zakończone podpisaniem tzw. porozumienia warszawskiego. Jurczyk utwierdził się wówczas w przekonaniu o złej woli władz i nabrał nieufności do związkowych doradców. Został też urażony postawą samego Wałęsy, który odciął od wpływu na podejmowane decyzje innych związkowych liderów, w tym samego Jurczyka. W kolejnych miesiącach Jurczyk, opierając się na szeregowych masach członkowskich „Solidarności”, wraz z nimi zaczął ulegać postępującej radykalizacji. Na I Krajowym Zjeździe Delegatów NSZZ wystąpił jako kontrkandydat Wałęsy w wyborach na przewodniczącego związku, próbując dać odpór jego autorytarnemu stylowi zarządzania „Solidarnością”. Wyciągnąwszy lekcję z przebiegu kryzysu bydgoskiego, Jurczyk w całej swojej dalszej karierze związkowej i politycznej odwoływał się do woli i opinii „zwykłych obywateli”.

Renewable Energy’s Effect on GDP Growth: Results from a Heterogeneous Panel Data Analysis
Authors: Nuriyev Nasimi , Murat Demiröz Dundar
Published: February 2025

Energy is a vital and crucial aspect for the economic advancement of countries and enhancing their living standards. In light of the rapid increase in energy consumption resulting from industrialization activities and technological developments, the limited availability of conventional energy resources has prompted nations to alter their energy production policies and resort to alternative energy sources. Our research, which is based on an extensive literature review, utilizes a heterogeneous panel data model to analyze the data of this study, which covers the period from 1970 to 2019, using real GDP (in million 2017 USD) according to chained PPP, capital stock (in million 2017 USD) according to current PPP, human capital index based on years of schooling and returns to education, and total renewable energy consumption in terawatt-hours (TWh) for each of the 22 European countries. We then calculated the difference between the dependent variable and the classifier-lasso model as suggested by Su, Shi, and Phillips (2016). Our findings indicate a statistically significant econometric relationship between all variables

Mutational and evolutionary dynamics of Brassicaceae plant organs
Authors: Zs Gyulai Gabor , Malone Renée P , Gyulai Gábor , Tóth-Lencsés Kitti A
Published: February 2025

The plant family of Brassicaceae (Syn., Cruciferae after the four petals in cruciform arrangement) comprises over 3,700 species of 338 genera including vegetables, crops, fodder crops and wild species. The most species-rich genera are the wild plants Draba (440 species), Erysimum (261 species), Lepidium (234 species), Cardamine (233 species), and Alyssum (207 species) (http://www.theplantlist.org/1.1/browse/A/; Simoncsics, 2017). The families of Armoracia, Raphanus, Sinapis, Wasabia, Arabidopsis (Rédei, G. [1921-2008], 1975; TAIR - www.arabidopsis.org) with over 50 species (http://www.theplantlist.org), and Thlaspi jankae (pennycress Janka, described in Hungary by Janka, V. [1837-1890]) also belongs to Cruciferae. Genus Brassica comprises 37 species and numerous subspecies (ssp.) and over 3.000 registered cultivars (cv.) growing globally. Here we analyze genomes and genes of brassicaceae species based on in silico data mining (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) to reveal further rationale for the extreme levels (Li et al., 2024) of plant organs mutations, molecular diversity, phenotypic plasticity, diversification, domestication, evolution, selection, speciation and breeding of brassicaceae species.
Inverse Multi-Objective Optimization for Portfolio Allocation in Commercial Banks
Authors: Albehery Nagwa , Helal Marwa A. , Ghania Amal F.
Published: February 2025

Optimal portfolio allocation in commercial banks is a critical decision for financial institutions. This paper proposes a multi-objective linear programming model to address this challenge. To ensure the model's feasibility and efficiency, we employ a generalized inverse optimization approach, replacing regular optimality with Pareto optimality. We apply our proposed models to real data from Bank Misr, an Egyptian bank, during the finance year 2020/2021. The multi-objective model was solved using LINGO 19, while the inverse multi-objective model was solved using R programming. Our analysis of the results provides valuable insights into optimal portfolio distribution for commercial banks.
The Odd Generalized Rayleigh Reciprocal Weibull Family of Distributions with Applications
Authors: Musekwa Regent Retrospect , Makubate Boikanyo , Nyamajiwa Violet
Published: February 2025

We introduced a novel family of models in this paper, which we named the odd-generalized Rayleigh reciprocalWeibull-G (OGR-RW-G) family. This family is noteworthy because it applies the T-X model construction technique to the generalized Rayleigh reciprocal Weibull model, addressing the inflexibility limits associated with traditional models and allowing one to use any baseline distribution. We examine some valuable statistical inferences from the OGR-RW-G, including its probability density function (pdf) represented in a linear fashion, its order statistics’ pdf, moments, residual life functions and R´enyi entropy. Additionally, the hazard rate functions (hrfs) and pdfs of a few particular models are determined to have analytical shapes. The OGR-RW-G model parameters are determined by the widely recognized maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) technique. We also perform a simulation exercise to evaluate the performance of the MLEs. Ultimately, the utility of the OGR-RW-G family is demonstrated by using the odd generalized Rayleigh reciprocal Weibull Burr-XII (OGR-RW-BXII) example of the OGR-RW-G to three distinct datasets. In actuality, the four parameter OGR-RW-BXII outperforms the four parameter non-nested models and some nested models that are presented.

Published: February 2025

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) has grown substantially, facilitating extensive time series data accumulation within healthcare environments. Detecting anomalies within IoMT time series data is critical for identifying potential health hazards and ensuring patient safety. This study investigates the efficacy of merging Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) neural networks with the Local Outlier Factor (LOF) algorithm for anomaly detection in time series data. LSTM networks are adept at grasping extended dependencies in sequential data, while LOF represents a potent unsupervised outlier identification technique. We introduce a unique methodology that capitalizes on the strengths of both LSTM and LOF to heighten anomaly detection accuracy. The proposed technique undergoes assessment via experiments on actual IoMT datasets including WUSTL-EHMS and Thyroid\_Diff, demonstrating consistent performance across diverse healthcare scenarios. A real-time simulation was conducted to assess the feasibility of deploying the framework in practical IoMT environments. Through comprehensive experimentation and analysis, we show its effectiveness. The results of the proposed method reveal a promising ability to precisely pinpoint anomalies, offering a valuable resource to healthcare professionals to quickly identify irregular patient conditions.

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, stands as one of the most infectious diseases globally, predominantly affecting the lungs (known as pulmonary tuberculosis). It manifests in two primary forms based on bacterial drug sensitivity: drug-sensitive TB (DS-TB) and drug-resistant TB (DR-TB). DS-TB remains susceptible to medication, whereas DR-TB has developed resistance. This study explores a mathematical model explaining the spread of tuberculosis within a drug-resistant population, proposing optimal control strategies to curb its dissemination through educational initiatives and enhancements in healthcare facilities. The stability analysis reveals that disease-free equilibrium points are locally asymptotically stable when R_0 < 1, while endemic equilibrium points prevail and are locally asymptotically stable if R_0 > 1. Additionally, sensitivity analysis identifies important parameters within the model. By using the Pontryagin Maximum Principle, control variables are integrated and numerically solved. Through simulations and cost assessments, we illustrate the efficacy of employing both control strategies concurrently, effectively reducing the populations susceptible to exposure, DS-TB, and DR-TB infections.
Cultural Dynamics in Global Account Management : Exploring India-Germany GAM Relationships Through Mixed Methods Research
Authors:   , Kadam Nayan Tukaram
Published: February 2025

This dissertation explores the cultural factors that impact Global Account Management (GAM), with an emphasis on the business relationship between India and Germany. It consists of three primary studies, each of which makes a distinct contribution to the understanding of GAM and cultural interaction.

The first study establishes an essential framework by undertaking a review of 71 academic sources, resulting in the development of a comprehensive conceptual model of GAM within a cultural setting. The second study employs a qualitative methodology through a case study approach, involving interviews with 23 global account managers based in Germany who oversee Indian global accounts. The findings demonstrate that cultural factors, including language, communication styles, time perception, conflict resolution methods, organizational structure, decision-making procedures, trust, and relationship, have an impact on managing Indian global accounts. Adopting Trompenaars’ cultural dimensions, the study develops a cultural performance framework by integrating these principles with insights from academic literature and thematic analysis. The third study employs the Fuzzy-set Qualitative Comparative Analysis method to examine 64 survey responses from India and 66 survey responses from Germany. This study demonstrates that optimal global account performance is not solely determined by a single factor but rather a combinations of various factors. Findings show context-specific factors, such as “product quality and pricing, cultural fit, and strategic alignment for Germany”, and “relationship, product quality and pricing, as well as internal and external support for India,” are relevant.

This dissertation is significant for its unique integration of mixed methodologies to examine the Indo-German business relationships in the lens of GAM. Theoretically, it expands existing knowledge in key account management, GAM, national culture, and organizational culture, by addressing areas that require further investigation. The findings hold great significance for individuals and organizations that are already or intend to be engaged in GAM within the Indian and German context. They provide strategic insights and practical frameworks for successfully navigating cultural change in managing global accounts.

Gender equality is one of the pillars of the cooperative movement, and is the basis of the measurespromoted by the public administration. However, the effectiveness of these measures has not materializedin practice, given that the number of women who occupy senior management positions withinthe cooperative society is far from that intended by the legislator, due to the persistence of stereotypes,prejudices and roles that can dissuade the female sector from exercising certain managerialfunctions. In this sense, the very nature of the Social Economy invites us to think that they presentconditions that favour the presence of women in their management bodies. In particular, cooperativesare seen as models adjusted to women’s needs and expectations, in accordance with the transversalprinciples and values that inspire their philosophy, due to the greater direct involvement of womenin social management.
Marketing verde y sostenibilidad empresarial en las MYPES de CAMIPYMEP, Lima 2023
Authors:   , Jurado Vera Carlos Augusto , Arias Rodriguez Lastenia Maritza
Published: February 2025

La investigación buscó analizar la relación entre el marketing verde y la sostenibilidad empresarial en las mypes de la Central de Asociaciones Empresariales de la Micro Pequeña y Mediana Empresa del Perú ""Camipymep"" en Lima durante 2023. Se empleó una metodología cuantitativa con un diseño no experimental, transversal, de tipo básico y nivel descriptivo correlacional. Como instrumento, se usó un cuestionario en escala Likert a una muestra representativa de 45 administradores de Camipymep. Los datos recogidos abarcaron niveles local, nacional e internacional sobre las variables.
Los resultados determinaron como principal descubrimiento una relación negativa y no significativa entre las variables marketing verde y sostenibilidad empresarial, con un coeficiente de Spearman de -0,023. Ante ese panorama, se concluyó que, a la fecha, las mypes no han adoptado prácticas de marketing verde para la sostenibilidad de sus negocios. Esto podría deberse a las desfavorables repercusiones económicas que el país intenta superar.
Sin embargo, también se observó que los empresarios están al tanto de la relevancia de conservar el medio ambiente para el desarrollo empresarial, como lo impulsan en Francia, Alemania, Dinamarca, Suecia y Finlandia.

Cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) is one of the main species of the peasant agroforestry system in many regions of Colombia and is considered one of the crops with the greatest economic projection, given its industrial demand and food importance. Production yields in the country are limited by various factors, with fungal diseases being a major challenge. Consequently, there is a strong need to develop safe and effective phytosanitary solutions to manage these diseases, reduce losses, and enhance productivity. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the antifungal potential of 4 concentrations (500, 1000, 2000 and 5000 ppm) of root, leaf and stem extracts of the Piper peltatum plant for the control of the fungus Moniliophthora roreri. For this, the fungus was collected and isolated from cocoa pods (T. cacao) and morphologically characterized. The results allowed to determine that P. peltatum in root extracts presents total phenol values ​​of 63 mg A.G g-1 and flavonoids of 74.88 mg CAT/g-1 and antioxidant activity greater than 200 mg Tx/g-1, ABTS. with values ​​of 300 mg Tx/g-1 and FRAP greater than 100 mg AA/g-1. Finally, the concentrations of Piper peltatum extracts showed an inhibition of mycelial growth greater than 88% in all concentrations and plant organs evaluated, highlighting the high potential of Piper peltatum as a controlling agent of Moniliophthora roreri in Cocoa crops in the Colombian Amazon region.
