Authors: Nagachevska Olena , Dzhereleiko Svitlana , Kushka Pavlo 
Published: January 2024

Purpose. The objective of the research is to evaluate the internal communications process within Ukrainian banks using a critical literature analysis methodology. This analysis aims to examine the structure and essential functions of internal communication, as well as strategies for enhancing communication while considering the nature of this process.
Results. Communication is crucial for the survival of financial institutions, as it helps them gather, analyze, and organize information about the external environment and transfer processed messages to the external environment. By addressing the challenges faced by employees in the banking sector, banks can create a positive internal and external image, fostering employee motivation, engagement, and success. Communication is the process of signals interchanging between the sender and receiver through a coding-decoding system, aiming to influence the recipient’s knowledge, attitudes, and behavior. The SMCR model, which includes the components of Source (or Sender), Message, Channel, and Recipient, is fundamental in communication studies. Effective communication involves receiving information from the receiver and responding to the sender’s prognosis. To improve the overall efficacy of the communication system, it is necessary to eliminate obstacles such as individual-personal, social, and cultural filters. The SMCR model identifies critical conditions for effective communication, including communication objectives, application preparation, channel selection, and appeal effectiveness. In banks, communication is related to both interpersonal processes and the social-organizational framework, resulting in predictable and stable communication between subordinates and managers. The analysis of communication networks in banks allows for an examination of the system’s integrity, connection with the external environment, and susceptibility to innovation.
Scientific novelty. The primary contribution of this work is its comprehensive elucidation of the concept and significance of external and internal communication within the context of financial institutions, along with the strategies employed to attain effective communication. The banking industry has a well-defined classification system for internal communication, which allows for the systematic analysis of the key advantages and disadvantages associated with such communication methods. This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the strategies used to build efficient internal communications inside a banking institution.
Practical value. The study provided has practical value, as it helps in evaluating internal communication inside Ukrainian banks, specifically in terms of communication quality and the efficacy of tools used for its implementation. The findings of this study have the potential to inform future advancements in the integration of internal communication practices inside banking institutions.

Abstract. Volatile organic sulfur compounds (VSCs), including carbon disulfide (CS2), dimethyl sulfide (DMS), and carbonyl sulfide (COS), were surveyed in the seawater of the Bohai and Yellow seas and the overlying atmosphere during spring and summer of 2018 to understand the production and loss of VSCs and their influence factors. The concentration ranges of COS, DMS, and CS2 in the surface seawater were 0.14–0.42, 0.41–7.74, and 0.01–0.18 nmol L−1 during spring and 0.32–0.61, 1.31–18.12, and 0.01–0.65 nmol L−1 during summer, respectively. The COS concentrations exhibited positive correlation with dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentrations in seawater during summer, which verified the photochemical production of COS from chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM). High DMS concentrations occurred near the Yellow River, Laizhou Bay, and Yangtze River estuary, coinciding with high nitrate and chlorophyll (Chl) a concentrations due to river discharge during summer. The COS, DMS, and CS2 concentrations were the highest in the surface seawater and decreased with the depth. The mixing ratios of COS, DMS, and CS2 in the atmosphere were 255.9–620.2, 1.3–191.2, and 5.2–698.8 pptv during spring and 394.6–850.1, 10.3–464.3, and 15.3–672.7 pptv in summer, respectively. The ratios of mean oceanic concentrations and atmospheric mixing ratios for summer to spring in COS, DMS, and CS2 were 1.8, 3.1, 3.7 and 1.6, 4.6, 1.5, respectively. The ratios of the mean sea-to-air fluxes for summer to spring in COS, DMS, and CS2 were 1.2, 2.1, and 4.3. The sea-to-air fluxes of VSCs indicated that the marginal seas are important sources of VSCs in the atmosphere. The results support a better understanding of the contribution of VSCs in marginal seas.
Reconstructing the Eemian to Middle Pleniglacial pedosedimentary evolution of the Baix loess–palaeosol sequence (Rhône Rift Valley, southern France) – basic chronostratigraphic framework and palaeosol characterisation

Published: January 2024

Abstract. Loess–palaeosol sequences (LPSs) are important archives of landscape evolution, recording alternating periods of geomorphic activity (dust deposition and slope processes) and landscape stability (soil formation). LPSs of the Rhône Rift Valley are located along a spatial climatic gradient from the mid-latitudes to the Mediterranean region. This position renders them extremely valuable archives for correlating LPSs in the European loess belt and the Mediterranean region. Despite this important function, Rhône Rift Valley LPSs have been little investigated. In this study, we aimed to narrow this knowledge gap, in a first step towards linking LPS-based mid-latitude and Mediterranean palaeoenvironmental reconstructions. We studied the ∼ 14 m thick Baix LPS located at the western edge of the Rhône Rift Valley near Valence. Here, we focus on the lower ∼ 7 m of the LPS, which comprises 12 of 19 soil horizons overall, and record regional palaeoenvironmental variations from the Eemian to the Middle Pleniglacial (∼ marine isotope stage (MIS) 5 to MIS 3). Our reconstruction is based on detailed field description, complemented by granulometry (10 cm vertical resolution), and micromorphological analyses. Luminescence screening of cut-out soil-sediment columns subsampled with ∼ 5 cm vertical resolution (126 subsamples over 7 m) provides a preliminary chronometry. The loess deposits of the Baix LPS are strongly calcareous and predominantly silty but also contain sandy and fine gravelly laminae typical of loess deposits subjected to slope-wash processes. From bottom to top, the investigated part shows three intensely pedogenised levels: (1) a basal sequence of reddish-brown Btg and Bt horizons of a thick Eemian Stagnic Luvisol (MIS 5e); (2) an early glacial yellowish-brown Bw horizon (MIS 5d-a); and (3) a yellowish-brown Bw horizon with large cone-shaped carbonate nodules in the associated underlying Bk horizon, interpreted as a truncated Middle Pleniglacial (MIS 3) Calcic Cambisol. The Baix LPS is in parts very similar to the Collias LPS ∼ 100 km further south but also exhibits differences, reflecting its position at the spatial climatic transition between the presently temperate and the Mediterranean zone.
Field monitoring of pore water pressure in fully and partly saturated debris flows at Ohya landslide scar, Japan
Authors: Oya Shunsuke , Imaizumi Fumitoshi , Takayama Shoki 
Published: January 2024

Abstract. The characteristics of debris flows (e.g., mobility, sediment concentration, erosion, and deposition of sediment) are dependent on the pore water pressure in the flows. Therefore, understanding the magnitude of pore water pressure in debris flows is essential for improving debris flow mitigation measures. Notably, the pore water pressure in a partly saturated flow, which contains an unsaturated layer in its upper part, has not been previously understood due to a lack of data. The monitoring performed in Ohya landslide scar, central Japan, allowed us to obtain the data on the pore water pressure in fully and partly saturated flows during four debris flow events. In some partly and fully saturated debris flows, the pore water pressure at the channel bed exceeded the hydrostatic pressure of clean water. The depth gradient of the pore water pressure in the lower part of the flow, monitored using water pressure sensors at multiple depths, was generally higher than the depth-averaged gradient of the pore water pressure from the channel bed to the surface of the flow. The low gradient of the pore water pressure in the upper part of partly saturated debris flows may be affected by the low hydrostatic pressure due to unsaturation of the flow. Bagnold number, Savage number, and friction number indicated that frictional force dominated in the partly saturated debris flows. Excess pore water pressure was observed in the lower part of partly saturated surges. The excess pore water pressure may have been generated by the contraction of interstitial water and have been maintained due to low hydraulic diffusivity in debris flows. The pore water pressure at the channel bed of fully saturated flow was generally similar to the hydrostatic pressure of clean water, while some saturated surges portrayed higher pore water pressure than the hydrostatic pressure. The travel distance of debris flows, investigated by the structure-from-motion technique using uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV-SfM) and the monitoring of time-lapse cameras, was long during a rainfall event with high intensity even though the pore water pressure in the flow was not significantly high. We conclude that the excess pore water pressure is present in many debris flow surges and an important mechanism in debris flow surge behaviors.

Published: January 2024

Introducción: A nivel mundial, la cobertura de vacunación contra el COVID-19, así como contra la influenza es baja tanto en la población general como en los profesionales de la salud a pesar de que la vacuna es gratuita y obligatoria en el personal sanitario. Objetivo: Describir la cobertura de vacunación contra el COVID -19, y la influenza en personal de salud y administrativo de un hospital de referencia del Ministerio de Salud Pública y Bienestar Social en el periodo 2021-2022. Metodología: Estudio observacional descriptivo de corte trasverso. Se hizo la revisión de los registros del personal sanitario y administrativo del centro vacunatorio del Hospital Nacional de Itauguá de la campaña vacunal contra el COVID-19 y de anti-influenza en el periodo 2021- 2022. Resultados: De los 3.586 funcionarios, 999 (27,9 %) eran médicos, 1494 (41,7 %) personal de enfermería, 366 (10,2 %) otra categoría de personal sanitario, y 727 (20,3 %) personal administrativo. En forma global, el 86,5 % de los funcionarios recibió por lo menos las dos dosis que constituyen el esquema primario y el 73 % la dosis de refuerzo. El 2,1 % del personal no recibió ninguna dosis de vacuna anti covid-19, la cifra fue mayor en el personal administrativo (4,8 %). La cobertura de vacunación contra la influenza fue de 20 % en el 2021 y 25 % en el 2022. Discusión: Si bien cobertura de vacunación anti-COVID-19 fue comparable a otros países, la vacunación contra la influenza fue muy baja. Es urgente implementar estrategias dirigidas a aumentar la percepción de riesgo y aceptabilidad de las vacunas obligatorias para el personal sanitario.

Sociodemographic factors and current contraceptive use among ever-married women of reproductive age: Analysis of the 2017 Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey data
Authors: Ds Ni Kadek Ayu Dwi Utami , Wirawan Dewa Nyoman , Ani Luh Seri 
Published: January 2024

Background and purpose: Globally, the number of new contraceptive users in mid-2017 was only around half of the target. According to the results of the Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS), the use of all methods of contraception in Indonesia has increased but is still lower than the target. This study aims to determine the factors associated with the use of contraception in Indonesia.
Methods: This study uses secondary data from the 2017 IDHS that was carried out in 34 provinces in Indonesia. The total sample was 35,681 of 49,627 women aged 15-49 years. The dependent variable was current contraceptive use. The independent variables consisted of socio-demographic and socio-economic factors, knowledge, discussion with husband, and access to health services. Data analysis was performed through a binary logistic regression test to obtain the adjusted odd ratio of each factor.
Results: The proportion of current contraceptive use was found to be 63.6% (95%CI: 63.2-64.0%). Factors related to current contraceptive use were family planning information from health workers (AOR=1.67; 95%CI: 1.59-1.77), maternal age of 35-44 years (AOR=1.54; 95%CI: 1.42-1.66), maternal age of 25-34 years (AOR=1.37; 95%CI: 1.27-1.48), maternal age ≥45 years (AOR=0.75; 95%CI: 0.68-0.82), living in the Java-Bali region (AOR=1.28; 95%CI: 1.22-1.35), living in rural areas (AOR=1.07; 95%CI: 1.01-1.12), having more than two living children (AOR=1.52; 95%CI: 1.44-1.60), level of education not attending school until not graduating from high school (AOR=1,46; 95%CI: 1.35-1.59), high school graduation level (AOR=1.25; 95%CI: 1.16-1.35), not working status (AOR=1.08; 95%CI: 1.03-1.13), medium wealth index (AOR=1.07; 95%CI: 1.00-1.14) and good knowledge (AOR=1.17; 95%CI: 1.11-1.23).
Conclusion: The proportion of current contraceptive use in couples of childbearing age in Indonesia has not reached the government target. Factors that were more likely to increase current contraceptive use were family planning information from health workers, age, region, number of living children, mothers’ education, and knowledge. The family planning program in Indonesia should therefore consider those factors to increase the current contraceptive use.

Authors: Junaedi Muhammad , Wirawan I Made Ady , Adhi Kadek Tresna 
Published: January 2024

Background and purpose: By December 2020, 678 confirmed cases of COVID-19 were recorded in East Lombok District, and more are anticipated. The capacity of the available healthcare institutions is now impacted by the inclusion of these cases. In this study, the duration of stay of COVID-19 patients at Dr. R. Soedjono Hospital in Selong, East Lombok will be described, as well as the association between sociodemographic and clinical factors with length of stay.
Methods: This is an observational study with a cross-sectional design using medical records of 409 patients who were confirmed positive for COVID-19 then treated in April-December 2020 and declared cured after completed the treatment period. The data collected included the date of admission and discharge of patients, age, gender, marital status, education, occupation, history of comorbidities and laboratory test results. Data analysis was performed using multiple logistic regression.
Results: The average length of stay for COVID-19 patients at Dr. R. Soedjono Hospital Selong, East Lombok was 16 days (SD±7,366) and the median was 14 days (IQR=7). Multivariate analysis shows factors for patients being treated for longer time (the average length of stay ≥17 days) were male (AOR=1.87; 95%CI: 1.21-2.86) and low education level (AOR=1.91; 95%CI: 1.19-3.06).
Conclusion: The average length of stay of COVID-19 patients in this hospital was quite long at 16 days. Male COVID-19 patients and those with low education have higher likelihood to stay longer in hospital. The hospital should consider this information to improve hospital planning for COVID-19 patients
Factors associated with smoking behaviour among Indonesian students: Analysis of the 2019 Global Youth Tobacco Survey
Authors: Faisal Debri Rizki , Putra Onetusfifsi , Nadira Nindy Audia 
Published: January 2024

Background and purpose: The smoking prevalence in youths aged 10-18 years in Indonesia increased from 7.2% in 2013 to 9.1% in 2018. The aim of this study was to assess factors related to smoking behavior among students in Indonesia.
Methods: This is a secondary analysis of the 2019 Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS) Indonesia data. The sampling technique used was two-stage cluster sampling, classified by schools and classes. The samples included in this analysis were all students aged 13-15 years who participated in the survey and have complete data, accounted for 9,789 respondents. The data were analysed with the Chi-Square Test and Logistic Regression with a 95% confidence interval and p value of 0.05.
Results: A total of 3,595 students (36.72%) had smoked. The number of respondents was the most in the age group of 13-15 years (51.43%). The number of male respondents was 44.01% and women 55.99%. Most students (90.29%) had seen cigarette advertisements, 55.88% of them saw people smoking in school areas and 46.88% saw teachers smoking at schools. The results of a multivariate analysis found factors affected smoking behaviour in students were the friend's offer to smoke (AOR=10.69; 95%CI: 7.37-15.50), male gender (AOR=13.94; 95%CI: 11.56–16.81) and presence of people smoking in the house (AOR=2.15; 95%CI: 1.88-2.45).
Conclusion: Environmental cues and peer pressure are associated with smoking among students. Optimizing smoke free and health education about the dangers of cigarettes is essential to counteract the extensive exposure to environmental influence to smoking.
Factors related to adherence to stay at the isolation house and health protocols for COVID-19 confirmed positive people in Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia
Authors: Ni Nyoman Sudarti  , Widarini Ni Putu , Ni Ketut Sutiari  
Published: January 2024

Background and purpose: Quarantine in the isolation house for people who are confirmed having COVID-19 is essential to reduce transmission in the community. This research aimed at determining factors associated with compliance to isolation for 14 days and the implementation of health protocols for people who are confirmed positive for COVID-19.
Methods: This study applied analytic cross-sectional design, which was conducted in the working area of the Public Health Centre (PHC) II North Denpasar. The samples were 279 people whom selected by simple random sampling. The collected data included sociodemographic characteristics, adherence to stay in the isolation houses and to apply health protocols, perceptions to compliance, cues to action, self-efficacy, knowledge, and social support. The data were analysed by Stata including descriptive analysis, followed by Chi-square Test and Multiple Logistic Regression.
Results: As high as 60.6% of respondents complied to stay for 14 days in the isolation house and implemented health protocols. From multivariable analysis, the higher likelihood to comply with staying at the isolation houses for 14 days and applying health protocols were among female (AOR=3.02; 95%CI: 1.54-5.90, having higher education (AOR=6.03; 95%CI: 3.09-11,77), those having high self-efficacy (AOR=3.43; 95%CI: 1.81-6.50), and those having good knowledge (AOR=2.18; 95%CI: 1.19-3.98).
Conclusion: About a third of the respondents did not comply with isolation for 14 days in the isolation house nor apply etiquette according to the health protocols, thus indicating a high risk of transmitting COVID-19 to others. It is necessary to promote health targeting people with low knowledge level and to provide social support from family, surrounding community and government.
