IntroductionThe continued emergence of human infections of H9N2 avian influenza virus (AIV) poses a serious threat to public health. The prevalent Y280/G9 lineage of H9N2 AIV in Chinese poultry can directly bind to human receptors, increasing the risk of spillover infections to humans. Since 2013, the number of human cases of H9N2 avian influenza has been increasing continuously, and in 2021, China reported the highest number of human cases, at 25.MethodsIn this study, we analyzed the age, geographic, temporal, and sex distributions of humans with H9N2 avian influenza in 2021 using data from the National Influenza Center (Beijing, China). We also conducted evolutionary, gene homology, and molecular characterization analyses of the H9N2 AIVs infecting humans.ResultsOur findings show that children under the age of 12 accounted for 80% of human cases in 2021, and females were more frequently affected than males. More cases occurred in winter than in summer, and most cases were concentrated in southern China. Human-infecting H9N2 viruses showed a high level of genetic homology and belonged to the prevalent G57 genotype. Several additional α2,6-SA-binding sites and sites of mammalian adaptation were also identified in the genomes of human-infecting H9N2 viruses.DiscussionTherefore, continuous monitoring of H9N2 AIV and the implementation of further measures to control the H9N2 virus in poultry are essential to reduce the interspecies transmission of the virus.

BackgroundWith the successful implementation of Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT) policies, the proportion of infants with exposure to both syphilis and antibiotic medication in utero has increased in China, but there is limited evidence about the early growth and development of such infants.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective nested case–control study based on data from the China PMTCT program conducted in Suzhou from 2016 to 2021. Propensity score matching (PSM) was employed to extract 826 syphilis-exposed but uninfected (SEU) infants and 1,652 syphilis-unexposed uninfected (SUU) infants from a total of 712,653 infants. Maternal characteristics were collected through questionnaires, such as parity, age, education level, smoking and drinking habits during pregnancy. Infantile characteristics were retrieved from medical records or via questionnaires, such as gestational age, gender, mode of delivery, Apgar scores, birth weight and length, outdoor time, vitamin D intake, and feed pattern. Mixed effects models, adjusting for potential influencing factors, were used to investigate the early infantile growth pattern of SEU and SUU infants. All statistical analysis were conducted using R (version 4.2.0).ResultsLength and weight were slightly higher in SEU infants than in the SUU infants at some time points (months 0 and 18 for length, p-values &lt;0.05; months 0, 6, and 18 for weight, p &lt; 0.05). In the mixed effects model, SEU group was found to be associated with higher weight [exponentiated beta exp.(β) = 1.15, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) = 1.06, 1.25], length [exp(β) = 1.42, 95% CI = 1.14, 1.77], and BMI z-score [exp(β) = 1.09, 95% CI = 1.00, 1.19].ConclusionWith the effective prevention of congenital syphilis under the PMTCT program, SEU infants have non-inferior growth patterns during their first 18 months of life compared with SUU controls in Suzhou, China.

Published: December 2023

Objectives: We expressed the combined effect by the ratio of daily sleep time to daily work time. The aim of this study was to discussed the predictive ability of daily sleep hours/work hours (SH/WH) ratio for diabetes risk.Methods: Cox proportional hazards regression was used to calculate the hazard ratios (HRs) of new-onset diabetes. Restricted cubic spline analyses were performed to visualize the influence trend of SH/WH ratio and diabetes risk.Results: The RCS model revealed a non-linear and L-shaped correlation between SH/WH ratio and diabetes risk. Compared with the participates with SH/WH ratio &lt;1, those with a ratio ≥1 had a lower risk of developing diabetes. The multivariable adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of new-onset diabetes in Q2, Q3, Q4 and Q5 groups compared with Q1 group were 0.82 (0.57, 1.19), 1.05 (0.69, 1.59), 0.57 (0.36, 0.91), 0.66 (0.42, 1.06). The Kaplan-Meier curve showed that Q4 group had lower cumulative incidence.Conclusion: Sleeping longer than working (SH/WH ratio ≥1) can reduce risk for developing diabetes. A minimal risk observed at 1.10–&lt;1.37 (the fourth quintile) of SH/WH ratio.

Published: December 2023

The use of bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas—destructors of persistent pollutants for biotechnologies of environmental purification—is an interesting area of research. The aim of this work was to study the potential of Pseudomonas mosselii strain 5(3) isolated from pesticide-contaminated soil as a degrader of C7-C10 perfluorocarboxylic acids (PFCAs) and analyze its complete genome. The genome of the strain has been fully sequenced. It consists of a chromosome with a length of 5,676,241 b.p. and containing a total of 5134 genes, in particular, haloalkane dehalogenase gene (dhaA), haloacetate dehalogenase H-1 gene (dehH1), fluoride ion transporter gene (crcB) and alkanesulfonate monooxygenase gene (ssuE), responsible for the degradation of fluorinated compounds. The strain P. mosselii 5(3) for was cultivated for 7 days in a liquid medium with various C7-C10 PFCAs as the sole source of carbon and energy, and completely disposed of them. The results of LC-MS analysis showed that the transformation takes place due to perfluorohexanoic acid with the release of various levels of stoichiometry (depending on PFCA) of fluorine ion mineralization indicators determined by ion chromatography. Thus, Pseudomonas mosselii strain 5(3) demonstrates a genetically confirmed high potential for the decomposition of C7-C10 PFCA.
THE PROBLEM OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT IN PEDAGOGICAL THEORY
Authors: BABENKO S. 
Published: December 2023

The article deals with the problem of personnel management in pedagogical theory. Three groups of scientific and pedagogical researches have been identified: the first – scientific works of famous economists and managers; the second is the work of educators based on the development of personnel management by economists and managers, attempts to transfer Western approaches to the local soil; the third is the works of educators based directly on the study of school management problems. It is revealed that the first group considers management problems throughout the development of human history, explains the origin of management terms, examines and compares management models that exist today. It is emphasized that the adaptive management of the school team, the psychology of motivation and the needs of people in the organization, the formation of positive group motivation, the scenarios of training sessions with teachers are the main issues considered by the authors of the second group. It is noted that the management of education in market conditions, training and retraining of personnel, creation of opportunities for mastering new educational technologies, motivation of pedagogical activities, innovative climate in the educational institution – these issues are the content of the works of the authors of the third group.
The article emphasizes that until recently the very concept of «personnel management in education» or «personnel management» was absent in management practice (in some dictionaries there is no definition of the term «management»), therefore works on management as such and educational management came to us from the works of foreign scientists. Personnel management as an independent scientific direction was formed within the humanistic management paradigm and the concept of human resources management. The need for the emergence of personnel management is due to the fact that in the context of personnel management, an employee is considered as the owner of human, intellectual and social capital, possessing professional and qualification characteristics that ensure his personal efficiency and competitiveness.

THEORETICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL FOUNDATIONS OF DESIGNING AND IMPLEMENTING STEM EDUCATION
Authors: PIDDIACHYI M. 
Published: December 2023

In the course of developing the strategy and theoretical and methodological foundations for designing and implementing STEM education of students, in the context of the prospects for social and labor development, it is necessary to harmonize their psychological sphere and form the ability to interact productively through education in the context of the general secondary education system. In the process of interaction, according to the proposed algorithm, with certain forms, methods and means of education, consciousness is formed at a new level of development, which is due to the ability to introspect and the accumulation of multifaceted psychological experience. The result is the ability to engage in productive activities that meet the interests, capabilities and aptitudes in the context of adaptability to employers' needs. The student's perspectives are considered as a dynamic characteristic of professional self-determination and a forecast of changes in the labor market, which allows to project the success of adaptation to existing conditions and to identify the compliance of their own capabilities with the requirements of productive activity through STEM education.
Modern STEM education should ensure the formation of competence levels of students who are able to analyze productive activities and solve problems, be ready for continuous learning and development in a rapidly changing technical and technological environment. It has numerous trends, as it is dynamically developing and adapting to the requirements of the modern world and rapidly changing technologies. The trends outlined in the report indicate the systemic development of STEM education as an important component of the modern educational process aimed at preparing students for life and work in the modern innovation space.
The development and implementation of STEM education is based on theoretical and methodological principles that define the basic principles and approaches to its development. These theoretical and methodological foundations help to create a basis for the productive implementation of STEM education, contributing to the development of students' competence levels and preparing them for productive interaction in the modern world. At the same time, the development of educational and methodological support (EMS) for STEM education includes several key stages and requires the cooperation of various specialists in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
Testing and evaluating the effectiveness of organizational forms, methods and means of implementing STEM education in the process of competence formation are important for ensuring the quality of education and further improving the educational process. The next stage of further research in this area is to develop the content of STEM education and requirements for student training, which should systematize the links between the purpose, means and results of the formed qualities, values and competencies and the conditions for their productive application.

Depuis plus de quarante ans, l’Institut national de l’audiovisuel (INA) oeuvre à la préservation, à la conservation et à la
valorisation du patrimoine audiovisuel. Il a, très tôt, grâce à une politique de numérisation de ses fonds, proposé des
produits innovants permettant de valoriser ses collections et de répondre à de nouveaux besoins. L’INA a choisi de refondre son système d’information documentaire pour répondre aux changements liés à l’accroissement et à la
diversification de ses fonds et à la prise en compte de nouvelles technologies. Cette refonte répond aux évolutions des modes de recherche et se base sur deux principes : fédérer les descriptions dans une base unique, et concevoir un modèle générique pour toutes les natures de documents. L’INA a assuré la cohérence de ses bases au fil du temps. À l’arrivée du nouveau système d’information et l’implémentation d’outils liés au numérique, il convient d’assurer la
gouvernance de la donnée.
Les Archives départementales du Bas-Rhin face à l’« impossible mémoire » de la Grande Guerre en Alsace
Authors: Depoil Anne-lise , Duvignacq Marie-Ange 
Published: December 2023

En dépit du contexte historique et mémoriel particulier de l’Alsace, dont l’appartenance disputée, entre France et Allemagne, a complexifié, dès 1918, les discours tenus sur la Grande Guerre, les Archives du Bas-Rhin ont dès 2013 rejoint les commémorations françaises du Centenaire et participé aux initiatives nationales emblématiques qu’ont été les grandes collectes et le Grand Mémorial, tout en mettant en valeur des sources alsaciennes spécifiques – ainsi les
Schul-chroniken, précieuses pour connaître la vie de l’arrière, systématiquement collectées et numérisées – ou peu utilisées dans le reste de la France, à l’image des dossiers d’anciens combattants, intégrés dans le Grand Mémorial en lieu et place des registres matricules. Le bilan des actions menées fait apparaître tant les spécificités locales, dont témoigne par exemple l’importante correspondance privée, en allemand, entrée dans les fonds lors des grandes collectes, que les points de convergence entre histoire régionale et histoire nationale. Si certains aspects des commémorations demeurent imparfaits ou appellent de nouveaux travaux, les Archives du Bas-Rhin ont, à leur échelle, contribué à la «fièvre mémorielle » nationale qui, loin d’épargner l’Alsace, a montré qu’il était aujourd’hui possible d’y commémorer de façon dépassionnée le premier conflit mondial.
La bibliothèque comme reflet du monde globalisé : mythes et réalités des Alexandrie contemporaines
Authors: Alibert Florence 
Published: December 2023

Les bibliothèques ne sont pas exclues des phénomènes de mondialisation. La standardisation des pratiques bibliothéconomiques, portée par les associations professionnelles internationales en est une expression évidente. Mais
c’est l’implantation, puis l’hégémonie, des collections numériques dans les bibliothèques de recherche qui marque sans doute le point le plus visible de cette tendance. Quelques grands éditeurs, dont certains en situation de quasi-monopole, comme Elsevier, participent de l’uniformisation de l’offre documentaire à l’échelle mondiale, malgré une nette progression des publications en libre accès. Quels que soient les marqueurs de cette mondialisation des bibliothèques, allant des pratiques de leurs professionnels à un mimétisme de leurs services ou de leurs collections, tous semblent concourir à la réanimation d’une image fantasmée traversant l’imaginaire des bibliothécaires : le rêve de rebâtir une bibliothèque d’Alexandrie nouvelle formule, temple culturel universel et numérique regroupant les savoirs humains de façon exhaustive, possibilité peut-être offerte par le développement massif des collections numériques, leur transmission sans embargo financier et leur conservation pérenne.

Si pendant longtemps les archivistes ont suivi des pratiques archivistiques nationales, est-ce encore le cas aujourd’hui ?
L’auteur présente quatre constats qui tendraient à démontrer qu’une archivistique que l’on pourrait qualifier de
mondialisée prend de la vigueur. À terme, celle-ci devrait non seulement se combiner avec les archivistiques nationales, et peut-être même les supplanter.
Assessing the influence of artisanal fishing on income and livelihood of the coastal communities in Tanzania: the case of Mkinga district, Tanga region
Authors: Churu Asha 
Published: December 2023

This study unveiled the influence of artisanal fishing on a coastal community's income and livelihood in the Mkinga District, Tanga region. Particularly, it seeks to: determine fish catch and gross margins across, investigate the influence of fish income on the households total incomes, and factors affecting income earnings in the marketing chain. The study used interviews and focus group discussions on obtaining primary data. Simultaneously, the internet, government documentation units at different levels were the sources of secondary data. It involved a total of 125 randomly selected respondents. Moreover, Gross Margin (GM), Marketing Margin (MG), and Statistical Package for Social Sciences (IBM SPSS Statistics 25) were employed for analysis.Results show the socio-economic status of the respondents was generally poor. The majority of fishers have low education levels (44%), and they depend on fishing for livelihoods. Furthermore, compared to other groups computation of gross margins revealed that artisanal fishers earned the lowest (12.2%) with a gross margin of T.shs 443.6. Despite the lowest gross margin earning than other players, the fish income contributes highly (83.8%) to the total household incomes. Therefore, improvement in the fisheries sector results has a high impact on artisanal fishers' wellbeing. Moreover, factors affecting their income include lack of credit to purchase modern fishing and storage equipment, high cost of fishing gear, poor roads, low bargaining power, inadequate extension services, and lack of market information. Hence, the study recommends the government address observed constraining factors affecting artisanal fishers' incomes to increase their incomes
