The impact of foreign workforces on selected aspects of economic development of society
Authors: Šoltés Viktor , Repková Štofková Katarína , Lenko Filip 
Published: January 2021

Research background: The process of globalization brought changes in society that are manifesting themselves in many areas. One of the areas in which the greatest changes occurs is the socio-economic area. The development of society, which is associated with increasing competitiveness, the creation of new job positions, rising wages, and thus the quality of citizens’ life, can be examined through various indicators. The creation of new job positions brings with it changes in the labor market, especially in its opening for the arrival of foreign employees.
Purpose of the article: The purpose of the article is to point out the relationship between the development of society and the migration of the population for work. To this purpose, it is necessary to examine the development of foreigners’ employment in selected regions and the impact of this employment on the development of regional gross domestic product, wages of employees, household expenditure and other indicators.
Methods: The development of regional disparities in the context of regional development will be examined through descriptive statistics and other coefficients measuring social disparities, such as the Gini coefficient. Subsequently the dependence between the employment of foreigners and individual indicators can be examined.
Findings & Value added: Research findings can be used to support the development of the least developed regions and to increase their competitiveness. The findings can thus be used not only by public authorities (in the case of state support), but also by employers from the private sector (employment policy).
Ethnic identity erosion in the indigenous Nenets population under globalization influence: gender differences between adolescent girls and boys
Authors: Telitsyna Alexandra , Zabelina Ekaterina , Kurnosova Svetlana 
Published: January 2021

Research background: Ethnic identity development, while universal, is also recognized as an especially important prerequisite for economic and social life among indigenous populations [1, 2]. Global transformations such as technology, industrialization, global warming and political and economic forces are impacting positive ethnic identity development in indigenous populations around the world.
Purpose of the article: The purpose of this study is to examine gender differences in ethnic identity erosion in the adolescent indigenous Nenets population of the Russian Siberian Arctic Region.
Methods: The study sample included 78 children in boarding schools from the northern area of Western Siberia. To define ethnic identity, the “Types of Ethnic Identity” questionnaire [3] was used.
Findings & Value added: The study results show that across 8th-9th grade as well as 10-11 grade Nenets adolescent boys perceive their ethnic identity positively. However, the same indicators show girls do not view their ethnic identity as positively. There are also several other interesting gender differences that emerge between the students in each grade. This may be the result of specific gender differences in perceptions about the economic and social realities of tundra life, the position of women in traditional societies as well as the impact of global transformations on indigenous populations overall.
Financial mechanisms to stimulate the real economy in the global economic security system
Authors: Klimenko Pavel , Sevryukova Larisa , Goncharenko Mikhail , Dmitriev Dmitry 
Published: January 2021

Research background: The real sector plays a crucial role in the country’s economy. It is he who serves as the economic basis for creating an additional product, in close connection with the financial sector. Today, the concept of “real sector of the economy” is used very actively both in economic science and in economic practice. Favourable macroeconomic factors lead to investment in the real sector and increase the competitiveness of production, both the economy of the individual state and the global economy as a whole. Research aimed at improving the efficiency of the real sector through the development of financial mechanisms to support it on a global scale is therefore highly relevant to the economic security of individual countries and the world economy.
Purpose of the article: identification of current problems and ways of improvement, financial mechanisms to stimulate the real sector of the economy to ensure economic security of the state
Methods: spatio-temporal analysis of the identified indicators of balanced development of the regional economy in order to ensure economic security.
Findings & Value added: Findings & Value added: proposed ways to develop effective financial mechanisms to stimulate the real sector of the economy can be used in the development of economic security strategies for regions and federal districts
Dynamic Models of the Creative Industries’ Entities in the Globalized Environment
Authors: Trúchliková Mária , Kmety Barteková Mária 
Published: January 2021

Research background: The creative industries, from this point of view, have dynamic and not just static economic value. They supply the economic growth and development over and above their addition to culture and society.
Purpose of the article: The aim of this paper is to analyse the two models that present the two potential answers to the research question: namely expansion and modernization. This paper will summarize these two models and assemble a sample of remaining evidence to set up the process of separating among them.
Methods: However, this paper does not seek a complete study. For that, a much more precise approach to modelling, data and statistical analysis would be required. We provide here only a concept of the classes of models suggested and an explanation of how different sorts of data might be applied to them. The model of economic growth actively involves the creative industries in the growth of the whole economy. The second model – model of innovation as suggested for the effect of science, education and technology in the national systems of innovation approach. The creative industries, in the second model, come from and integrate change in the knowledge base of the economy.
Findings & Value added: We proposed the two possible primary relations between the creative industries’ entities and the rest of the economy. We define the relation of each model to various theoretical foundations and the relevant policy framework in each situation.
Energy saving as a necessary condition for the development of a green economy in the context of globalization and transformation of society
Authors: Vertakova Yulia , Kryzhanovskaya Olga 
Published: January 2021

Research background:The world is actively transforming socio-economic and production processes. Ensuring economic growth today is accompanied by an increase in living standards and environmental degradation, the exhaustion of natural resources, imbalance in the biosphere, and climate change, which leads to poor human health and limits the possibilities for further development. All this is due to the need to transform both the provision of technological progress for economic development, and the favouring of the natural environment in the context of globalization.Purpose of the article:The purpose of the article is to study energy conservation as a necessary condition for the development of a “green” economy in the context of globalization and transformation of society.Methods:The research is based on general scientific methods of empirical research (observation, measurement, experiment, modelling), analysis and synthesis, analogy, systematization, as well as methods of structural-logical, statistical analysis.Findings & Value added:The article systematizes approaches to defining the concept of a green economy, reveals the relationship between the categories of politics and society, and elements of the green economy. The efficiency of the use of fuel and energy resources is determined by the energy intensity of GDP. In this regard, the predicted dynamics of energy intensity of GDP by regions of the world, energy consumption per capita in the world and groups of countries are analysed, measures of state support in the field of energy conservation and energy efficiency are substantiated.

Authors: Vidrova Zdenka , Bohus Zoltan , Adamko Peter 
Published: January 2021

Research background: In today’s global world and many major market players, companies are forced to streamline and optimize their processes. They can use many methods for this purpose. One of the modern and innovative methods is process simulation. Simulation is experimenting with a computer model of a real production system in order to optimize the production process.
Purpose of the article: The purpose of this article is to point out how it is possible to optimize processes in a manufacturing plant using a simulation tool.
Methods: The main methods used were mainly method of analysis and simulation software Tecnomatix Plant Simulation, version 15.0.5 from Siemens company. The authors used the method of analysis both in the processing of the theoretical basis of the problem, as well as in the analysis of processes in the manufacturing company. This analysis provided important information inputs for creating a simulation model that reflects the current state of material flows in the company.
Findings & Value added: The results were obtained based on performed experiments with the created initial model of the current state of material flows. These experiments were performed using a tool of genetic algorithms that are part of the simulation software. The parameter that was assessed in the individual experiments was the production time of the entire production plan. Based on the process simulation, it was possible to reduce this time, which increased the production efficiency and throughput of material flows in the production plant.

Authors: Brezonakova Andrea , Badanik Benedikt , Davies Robin 
Published: January 2021

Research background:The authors are providing an update to the ongoing process of Brexit and the negotiations between the UK and the EU, following their own previous research in this area.Purpose of the article:In 2019, the aviation sector in the UK ranked as the third largest in the world. London Heathrow, a hub to many UK airlines, ranked as Europe’s busiest airport and seventh busiest in the world. [1] Brexit negotiations between the UK and the EU, in the context of globalization and the existing deep ties within the EU institutions, presents a complex task. Following the Brexit referendum in June 2016, where the majority of the electorate decided that Britain should leave the EU, events have progressed significantly by the UK leaving the EU formally at 23:59 on the 31st January 2020. However, negotiations are still ongoing and when it comes to Aviation, the outcome in many key areas is still uncertain.Methods:The article is based on data and information collation as well as the authors’ experience within the industry.Findings & Value added:Once the transition period terminates on the 31st December 2020, Brexit will have a significant influence on trading in the European domestic market and globally on the international market. This paper discusses available options for the UK and the EU that follow from existing decisions in the Brexit bill, as well as outlining possible future developments. Furthermore, in light of the existing threats to the Aviation industry from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the cessation of air travel for many weeks, adjustments to the Brexit plan might be required.

Research background: The world will change radically after the COVID-2019 pandemic. The transformation of financial globalization is already taking place. It contributes to the emergence of new international relation’s forms, institutions, technologies of interaction. All these trends necessitate a revision of the basic Ukraine concepts on convergent integration into the international financial space.
Purpose of the article: To identify effects of financial globalization in Ukraine and characteristics of digital human interaction; to define an expansion of digital health principles for the elimination of the population’s cognitive skills atrophy and to offer new information convergence technology, financial autonomy and identity of the country in global financial market.
Methods: The methods of divergence and convergence, rationality and irrationality – to find effective tools for regulating international financial relations in Ukraine; methods of cognitive data analysis – to determine forms, directions of Ukrainian society digital hygiene; conceptualization of consequences and duality of results evaluation – for clarity of reflection of a modern development condition for а society emotional intelligence and levelling of Ukraine dependence on financial hedonism in the world.
Findings & Value added: This search for regulation methods is based on a hybrid combination of global professional achievements in the regulation of financial markets, author’s work, applied projects to stabilize the financial system and priority measures to balance the development of the national economy of Ukraine. This approach will increase the effectiveness of financial relations and solving socio-economic problems at the national and international levels, while ensuring the achievement of national priorities and interests.
Impact of Globalization and Internationalization Processes on Added Value in EU Countries
Authors: Kostiuk Yaroslava , Kalinová Eva , Kučera Jiří 
Published: January 2021

Research Background: The paper focuses on the specification of categories of the globalization and internationalization process in terms of origin, development, definition and content. Using European Commission statistics for the period 2013-2017, the EU28 countries are divided into countries that started the EU (Germany, France, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg) and countries that joined the EU before 2000 (Denmark, Norway, Finland, Portugal, Austria, Greece, Spain, Sweden, Great Britain), and other countries of the so-called former Eastern bloc (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Poland). For such defined EU countries, a different level of involvement in the globalizing common economy of the European Union as well as a different level of involvement in foreign markets, depending on the level of national economies, can be expected.
Purpose of the Article: A test set of 338,788 companies from across the EU was used to analyse value added associated with each indicator (value added at factor cost, gross (average) value added per person employed, number of workers, enterprise size classes and selected industries, namely manufacturing, construction, engineering, transportation and logistics). The membership of the countries in the European Monetary Union was also taken into account.
Methods: Mathematical and statistical methods of correlation analysis and paired T-test were used for value added analysis.
Findings & Value Added: The outputs of the analysis indicated a high level of statistical conclusive evidence in terms of the impact of value added on each enterprise size class across the sectors concerned as well as on the structure of production and the number of active workers.
The new “global”: the role of cargo maritime transport of goods with focus on the transportation corridor between Southeast Asia and Northwestern Europe
Authors: Minárik Marek , Čiderová Denisa 
Published: January 2021

Research background:Our research is framed by the new institutional theory reflected in: the property rights theory [1] and transfer of ownership of goods and the transaction costs theory that might be associated with economic exchange theory. Overall, we need to consider occurrence of deglobalization and the COVID-19 crisis, which recently not just decelerated growth of the world economy, but even put it to a halt; one might conclude that (de)globalization [2] and the COVID-19 crisis are behind the new “global” [3].Purpose of the article:We investigate the impact of connectivity between selected countries by cargo maritime transport on costs to import of 1 TEU container transporting a specific commodity in a specific transportation corridor.Methods:Our research is based on a regression analysis creating a model of UNCTAD statistics; the Liner shipping connectivity index (LSCI); and the WEF Global Competitiveness Index (GCI). We consider the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) that converges with the global maritime transportation corridor between (Southeast) Asia/China – Northwestern Europe/EU (the North Sea Region) in this respect, bearing in mind the 2017 round of the International Comparison Program recently released by the World Bank.Findings & Value added:Our research reveals correlation of the costs to import of 1 TEU container vis-à-vis the quality and intensity of liner shipping connections and the quality of the business environment determining the transaction costs in import price. Value added of the paper is our focus on sustainable development reinvigorated by prestigious international organisations and European Union institutions.

Atherosclerotic Burden and Arterial Stiffness are Not Increased in
Patients with Milder Forms of Primary Aldosteronism Compared to Patients with
Essential Hypertension
Authors: Lottspeich Christian , Köhler Anton , Czihal Michael , Heinrich Daniel A. , Schneider Holger , Handgriff Laura , Reincke Martin , Adolf Christian 
Published: January 2021

AbstractPatients with primary aldosteronism (PA) are at increased cardiovascular
risk, compared to patients with essential hypertension (EH). Cardiovascular
damage could depend on PA phenotype, potentially being lower in milder forms
of PA. Our aim was to assess atherosclerotic burden and arterial stiffness
in 88 prospectively recruited patients, including 44 patients with mild PA
and EH respectively. All patients underwent a structured study program,
including measurements of ankle-brachial index, oscillometric measurement of
central pulse wave velocity (cPWV) and vascular ultrasound examination of
the supraaortic arteries, the abdominal aorta, and the femoropopliteal
arteries. A plaque score was calculated to estimate atherosclerotic burden
for each patient. This is a prospective case-control study set at a tertiary
care hospital. Patients with PA and EH matched well for age, gender, blood
pressure, BMI, and cardiovascular risk factors such as diabetes mellitus and
smoking status. Common carotid intima-media thickness (0.77 vs.
0.75 mm; p=0.997) and cPWV (7.2 vs. 7.1 m/s;
p=0.372) were comparable between patients with PA and EH. The
atherosclerotic burden, as expressed by the plaque score, did not differ
between the two groups (p=0.159). However, after initiation of
treatment cPWV was significantly decreased in patients with PA
(p=0.017). This study shows that subclinical atherosclerotic burden
and arterial stiffness in patients with milder forms of PA is comparable to
patients with EH. Nevertheless, specific treatment for PA significantly
improved cPWV, which argues for a more liberal use of mineralocorticoid
receptor antagonists in patients with arterial hypertension.
Domino Reactions of Tertiary Enamides in Organic Synthesis
Authors: Tong Shuo , Wang Mei-Xiang 
Published: January 2021

AbstractStudies in recent decade have shown that tertiary enamides, once thought of as unreactive and marginally useful enamine variants, are shelf-stable yet versatile nucleophilic intermediates in organic synthesis. Many compounds, especially N-heterocycles, have been synthesized by monofunctionalization reactions of tertiary enamides. By taking advantage of intramolecular and intermolecular interception of the putative acyliminium intermediates formed by the initial nucleophilic reactions of tertiary enamides, we have established several novel difunctionalization reaction methods for constructing diverse complex fused heterocyclic products. In this Account, we summarize our endeavors to develop difunctionalization reactions of tertiary enamides in a domino fashion.1	Introduction2	Strategic Considerations3	Domino Reactions of Tertiary Enamides3.1	Type I Domino Reactions3.2	Type II Domino Reactions3.3	Type III Domino Reactions4	Conclusion and Perspectives

Abstract
Background Assessment tools are essential for endoscopy training, being required to support feedback provision, optimize learner capabilities, and document competence. We aimed to evaluate the strength of validity evidence that supports the available colonoscopy direct observation assessment tools using the unified framework of validity.
Methods We systematically searched five databases for studies investigating colonoscopy direct observation assessment tools from inception until 8 April 2020. We extracted data outlining validity evidence (content, response process, internal structure, relations to other variables, and consequences) from the five sources and graded the degree of evidence, with a maximum score of 15. We assessed educational utility using an Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education framework and methodological quality using the Medical Education Research Quality Instrument (MERSQI).
Results From 10 841 records, we identified 27 studies representing 13 assessment tools (10 adult, 2 pediatric, 1 both). All tools assessed technical skills, while 10 each assessed cognitive and integrative skills. Validity evidence scores ranged from 1–15. The Assessment of Competency in Endoscopy (ACE) tool, the Direct Observation of Procedural Skills (DOPS) tool, and the Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Competency Assessment Tool (GiECAT) had the strongest validity evidence, with scores of 13, 15, and 14, respectively. Most tools were easy to use and interpret, and required minimal resources. MERSQI scores ranged from 9.5–11.5 (maximum score 14.5).
Conclusions The ACE, DOPS, and GiECAT have strong validity evidence compared with other assessments. Future studies should identify barriers to widespread implementation and report on the use of these tools in credentialing examinations.
