To answer increasingly complex leadership challenges, a leadership style that can accommodate changing times is needed. Exploring the characteristics of transformational and distributed leadership as an effort to raise school performance is the research goal to be achieved.. This type of research is library research. The research data sources used are books and journals that are relevant to the title and study. Data analysis techniques used include steps such as preparing text data for review, reading all data, coding data, describing data, presenting data, and interpreting data. This research gives the result that an important characteristic of transformational leadership is visionary, where the leader will lead his team to move forward in creating change. While the main characteristics of the distributed leadership model are distributing or sharing some of the tasks and the process of influencing others, as well as the practice of a leader's activities focusing on an interaction between members. Transformational leadership emphasizes emotional awareness and individual empowerment, while distributed leadership enables flexibility in terms of location and time, as well as digital collaboration. Both require more collaborative leadership skills and utilize technology to facilitate team communication and cooperation. They are evolving to meet the complexity and challenges of the digitally connected work environment. Keywords: characteristics, transformational leadership, distributed leadership, school performance

Kebutuhan ekonomi saat ini sangat pesatnya hampir setiap kehidupan masyarakat berkutat dengan ekonomi, perusahaan dalam bentuk lembaga keuangan, manufakturing, jasa, dan lain sebagainya semua melakukan kegiatan ekonomi, Pada mulanya, perusahaan hanya berfokus untuk memenuhi kebutuhan barang dan jasa bagi manusia. Dari pemenuhan tersebut, perusahaan akan mendapatkan manfaat dari hubungan timbal balik dalam bentuk manfaat ekonomi yaitu berupa keuntungan. Pandangan seperti itu yang biasa disebut dengan single bottom line, dimana nilai sebuah perusahaan hanya dilihat dari kondisi keuangannya saja. Seiring berjalannya waktu, pandangan perusahaan berubah menjadi triple bottom line. Perusahaan tidak lagi hanya berfokus pada finansial (profit) saja, tetapi mulai masuk ke sosial (people) dan lingkungan (planet). CSR masih dipandang menyulitkan perusahaan kususnya yang terkait dengan pengelolaan sumber daya alam. Dengan kondisi lingkungan usaha yang belum kondusif, perusahaan diwajibkan mengalokasikan dana untuk CSR.
Kewajiban ini dimunculkan lewat Undang-Undang no 40 tahun 2007 tentang Perseroan Terbatas. Meskipun masih multi tafsir dan mengundang perdebatan serius termaktub bahwa perseroan di bidang atau berkaitan dengan sumber daya alam wajib bertanggung jawab dalam masalah sosial, ekonomi dan lingkungan. CSR yang semestinya di ranah sukarela sekarang sudah masuk ke ranah wajib. Menyikapi hal ini perusahaan tentu harus menyikapi CSR dalam kerangka logis untuk memberikan manfaat bagi pembangunan berkelanjutan masyarakat, stakeholder, dan daya dukung bumi. Kewajiban bertanggung jawab dengan CSR ini juga yang membuat perseroan terbatas harus membuat laporan berkelanjutan yang disebut dengan sustainability report.
Sebagian besar penelitian mengenai pengukuran pengungkapan tanggung jawab sosial perusahaan yang telah dilakukan pada perbankan syariah menggunakan GRI Maka penelitian ini didesain untuk melakukan pengukuran CSR yang baru dengan melakukan konvergensi GRI4 (113 item). Penelitian ini berfokus pada 3 bank syariah yang terdaftar di Indonesia yaitu Bank BSM, BRI Syariah, BNI Syariah.
Unit analisisnya adalah laporan sustainable Bank syariah atau publikasi CSR tahun 2016. Analisis data menggunakan kualitiatif dengan data sekunder yaitu data sustanable report tahunan Bank syariah tahun 2016. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa konvergensi indek GRI harus dilakukan untuk panduan umum seperti strategi dan bisnis, profil perusahaan, profil laporan dan tata kelola, dan indikator-indikator panduan kusus seperti ekonomi, kinerja lingkungan, Praktek Tenaga Kerja dan Pekerjaan yang Layak, hak asasi manusia,masyarakat/sosial dan tanggung jawab terhadap produk. Pengukuran CSR yang baru menghasilkan 113 item pengukuran dengan 6 indikator kusus dan 4 indikator umum. Diharapkan hasil ini memberikan kontribusi signifikan pada pengungkapan CSR khususnya untuk industri perbankan syariah di Indonesia.

Published: July 2024

IntroductionThis paper investigates the operational stability of lactate biosensors, crucial devices in various biomedical and biotechnological applications. We detail the construction of an amperometric transducer tailored for lactate measurement and outline the experimental setup used for empirical validation.MethodsThe modeling framework incorporates Brown and Michaelis–Menten kinetics, integrating both distributed and discrete delays to capture the intricate dynamics of lactate sensing. To ascertain model parameters, we propose a nonlinear optimization method, leveraging initial approximations from the Brown model’s delay values for the subsequent model with discrete delays.ResultsStability analysis forms a cornerstone of our investigation, centering on linearization around equilibrium states and scrutinizing the real parts of quasi-polynomials. Notably, our findings reveal that the discrete delay model manifests marginal stability, occupying a delicate balance between asymptotic stability and instability. We introduce criteria for verifying marginal stability based on characteristic quasi-polynomial roots, offering practical insights into system behavior.DiscussionQalitative examination of the model elucidates the influence of delay on dynamic behavior. We observe a transition from stable focus to limit cycle and period-doubling phenomena with increasing delay values, as evidenced by phase plots and bifurcation diagrams employing Poincaré sections. Additionally, we identify limitations in model applicability, notably the loss of solution positivity with growing delays, underscoring the necessity for cautious interpretation when employing delayed exponential function formulations. This comprehensive study provides valuable insights into the design and operational characteristics of lactate biosensors, offering a robust framework for understanding and optimizing their performance in diverse settings.

Objective: This study aimed to assess the relationship between implantation and soluble HLA-G (sHLA-G) expression in cleavage embryo culture medium (ECM) in conjunction with early developmental kinetics determined by time-lapse imaging (TLI).Methods: A retrospective, single-center study was conducted involving 238 embryos from 165 patients who underwent Frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) using autologous oocytes, with either single or double embryo transfer. TLI morphokinetic parameters (t2, t3, t4, t5, t6, t7, t8, cc2, s2, cc3, s3) of embryos were analyzed, and sHLA-G levels in D3 ECM were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). A hierarchical classification model was developed to categorize embryos into five groups (A, B, C, D, E). The correlation between sHLA-G levels, TLI classification of embryos, and embryo implantation was investigated to establish a non-invasive method for evaluating implantation potential. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify potential influencing factors, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to evaluate the predictive value for implantation.Results: Multivariate unconditional logistic regression analysis indicated that TLI parameters t5 and s3 and sHLA-G level in ECM were independent risk factors affecting embryo implantation. The implantation rate decreased from TLI classification A to E. The proposed classification model effectively assessed the implantation potential of embryos. The implantation rate was higher in the sHLA-G positive group compared to the sHLA-G negative group (p &lt; 0.001). The expression of sHLA-G in D3 ECM, combined with the TLI classification model, accurately evaluated the implantation potential of embryos with an AUC of 0.876.Conclusion: The integration of cleavage kinetics and embryonic sHLA-G expression could reliably identify embryos with a high likelihood of successful implantation.

BackgroundHypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), the most common genetic heart disease, is classified into hypertrophic non-obstructive and hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM). Patients with HOCM and coexisting heart failure or arterial hypertension are often prescribed afterload-reducing drugs. Although recommended in current guidelines, data on the direct effect of discontinuing afterload-reducing medication are scarce. This study aims to demonstrate the benefit of discontinuing afterload-reducing medication in HOCM patients.MethodsThis monocentric retrospective analysis included 24 patients with HOCM with afterload-reducing medication, including angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin-1 receptor blocker and dihydropyridine-calcium channel blocker, at their first outpatient visit. Effects of discontinuing this medication on LVOTO were examined compared to patients with persistent use despite medical advice.Results16 patients discontinued their afterload-reducing drugs, resulting in a significant decrease in median LVOT gradient from 86.5 [60.5–109.3] mmHg to 61.5 [28.3–97.50] mmHg (p = 0.0004). In 6 patients, beta-blocker therapy was initiated simultaneously, or the dose was increased. Regardless, LVOT gradient reduction was also significant in the remaining 10 patients (p = 0.001). The gradient was not changed significantly in the 8 patients continuing their afterload-reducing medication.ConclusionsDiscontinuation of afterload-reducing drugs significantly decreases LVOTO. Our study underscores the significance of abstaining from afterload-reducing drugs in HOCM patients, particularly in patients with concomitant hypertension or heart failure. According to recently published European guidelines, HOCM patients should preferably be treated with beta-blockers or non-dihydropyridine-calcium channel blockers.

Published: July 2024

BackgroundTeacher instructional practices play crucial roles not only in shaping the happenings in the classrooms but also in facilitating students’ understanding and success rates in mathematics. However, previous studies on teachers’ factors that bolster or undermine instructional practices often consider the influence of these factors on instructional practices in isolation.ObjectiveOn the contrary, we took an inclusive approach in the present study to quantify and disentangle the complex relationship between self-efficacy, job satisfaction, stress, cooperation, and instructional practices with a focus on mathematics teachers.MethodsWe used structural equation modelling to analyze the generated data from 1,304 Norwegian secondary school mathematics teachers.ResultsThe results showed that teacher self-efficacy contributes the most to teacher instructional practices through direct and mediating effects. It mediates the effects of stress and cooperation on teachers’ practices. The contribution of teacher cooperation to instructional practices supersedes teacher stress while the effect of job satisfaction is not substantial. Also, instructional practices that include frequent use of techniques of cognitive activation, clarity of instruction, and classroom management are more prevalent among female than male mathematics teachers in Norway.ConclusionBy implications, these findings revealed that teacher self-efficacy and teacher cooperation are prime factors which interventions could bring about the desired improvement in classroom practices among mathematics teachers.

Published: July 2024

IntroductionResearchers in the learning sciences have been considering methods of analysing and representing group-level temporal data, particularly discourse analysis, in Computed Supported Collaborative Learning for many years.MethodsThis paper compares two methods used to analyse and represent connections in discourse, Discrete Time Markov Chains and Epistemic Network Analysis. We illustrate both methods by comparing group-level discourse using the same coded dataset of 15 high school students who engaged in group work. The groups were based on the tools they used namely the computer, iPad, or Interactive Whiteboard group. The aim here is not to advocate for a particular method but to investigate each method’s affordances.ResultsThe results indicate that both methods are relevant in evaluating the code connection within each group. In both cases, the techniques have supported the analysis of cognitive connections by representing frequent co-occurrences of concepts in a given segment of discourse.DiscussionAs the affordances of both methods vary, practitioners may consider both to gain insight into what each technique can allow them to conclude about the group dynamics and collaborative learning processes to close the loop for learners.

IntroductionObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can have negative impacts on the health outcomes of individuals with type 2 diabetes. However, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), there is a lack of understanding regarding the relationship between OSA and type 2 diabetes despite the significant implications it has on health. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the association between OSA risk and type 2 diabetes, associated risk factors, and gender differences in OSA symptoms among Emirati adults.MethodsWe conducted a cross-sectional analysis of the baseline data from the UAE Healthy Future Study (UAEHFS) collected between February 2016 and March 2023. Our sample consisted of 4578 participants aged 18-71 who completed the STOP-BANG survey, provided body measurements and blood samples. We stratified the patients according to their OSA risk and diabetes. We used univariate and multivariate logistic regression models to analyze the relationship between OSA risk and type 2 diabetes and to identify factors associated with risk for OSA and type 2 diabetes. We estimated odds ratios (ORs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CI).ResultsThe mean age was 27.5 years (± 8.35), and 55.81% (n=2555) were men. The overall prevalence of high risk for OSA was 16.58% and was higher in men compared to women (26.46% vs 4.10%). Women reported feeling tired more often than men (68.02% vs 48.96%). Both genders have similar rates of stop breathing and BMI ≥ 35. There was a significant association between the OSA risk and type 2 diabetes in the unadjusted model (OR=2.44; 95% CI: 1.78-3.35; p-value &lt;0.0001) and (OR=6.44; 95% CI: 4.32-9.59; p-value &lt; 0.0001) among those who reported intermediate and high OSA risk, respectively. After adjusting the model for education attainment, marital status, waist circumference, and smoking, the association remained significant between diabetes and OSA risk, with an OR of 1.65 (95%CI: 1.18-2.32; p-value =0.004) for intermediate OSA risk and 3.44 (95%CI: 2.23-5.33; p-value &lt;0.0001) for high OSA risk.ConclusionsThis study conducted in the UAE found a significant correlation between OSA risk and type 2 diabetes. We suggest introducing routine screening of OSA for individuals with diabetes.

BackgroundObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) syndrome and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) have been shown to have a close association in previous studies, but their pathogeneses are unclear. This study explores the molecular mechanisms associated with the pathogenesis of OSA and NAFLD and identifies key predictive genes.MethodsUsing the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, we obtained gene expression profiles GSE38792 for OSA and GSE89632 for NAFLD and related clinical characteristics. Mitochondrial unfolded protein response-related genes (UPRmtRGs) were acquired by collating and collecting UPRmtRGs from the GeneCards database and relevant literature from PubMed. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with OSA and NAFLD were identified using differential expression analysis. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was conducted for signaling pathway enrichment analysis of related disease genes. Based on the STRING database, protein–protein interaction (PPI) analysis was performed on differentially co-expressed genes (Co-DEGs), and the Cytoscape software (version 3.9.1) was used to visualize the PPI network model. In addition, the GeneMANIA website was used to predict and construct the functional similar genes of the selected Co-DEGs. Key predictor genes were analyzed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.ResultsThe intersection of differentially expressed genes shared between OSA and NAFLD-related gene expression profiles with UPRmtRGs yielded four Co-DEGs: ASS1, HDAC2, SIRT3, and VEGFA. GSEA obtained the relevant enrichment signaling pathways for OSA and NAFLD. PPI network results showed that all four Co-DEGs interacted (except for ASS1 and HDAC2). Ultimately, key predictor genes were selected in the ROC curve, including HDAC2 (OSA: AUC = 0.812; NAFLD: AUC = 0.729), SIRT3 (OSA: AUC = 0.775; NAFLD: AUC = 0.750), and VEGFA (OSA: AUC = 0.812; NAFLD: AUC = 0.861) (they have a high degree of accuracy in predicting whether a subject will develop two diseases).ConclusionIn this study, four co-expression differential genes for OSA and NAFLD were obtained, and they can predict the occurrence of both diseases. Transcriptional mechanisms involved in OSA and NAFLD interactions may be better understood by exploring these key genes. Simultaneously, this study provides potential diagnostic and therapeutic markers for patients with OSA and NAFLD.
