Background
Lenvatinib is an oral anticancer medication used to treat radioiodine-refractory thyroid cancer and unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. The purpose of this study is to evaluate lenvatinib adherence by patients and to identify factors associated with decreased lenvatinib adherence.

Methods
Among 153 patients who started treatment with lenvatinib for unresectable thyroid cancer or unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma between May 1, 2015 and August 31 2021 at the Cancer Institute Hospital of the Japanese Foundation for Cancer Research, 102 were eligible for this study (55 thyroid cancer, 47 hepatocellular carcinoma). The lenvatinib adherence rate in a treatment cycle was defined as the number of times a patient took lenvatinib in a 28-day cycle divided by the prescribed 28 doses. The rate was determined by pill counting and self-reporting at the pharmaceutical outpatient clinic. Reasons for non-adherence were established by interview and analyzed.

Results
The median adherence rate of lenvatinib in the first cycle was 90.1% (n = 55) in thyroid cancer and 94.9% (n = 47) in hepatocellular carcinoma. In thyroid cancer, there were 255 incidents of lenvatinib non-adherence. Non-adherence was mainly associated with bleeding events (18.6%), followed by hand-foot skin reactions (10.6%). In hepatocellular carcinoma, there were 97 incidents of non-adherence. Hypertension accounted for 20.6%, followed by hoarseness (18.6%) and diarrhea (17.5%).

Conclusion
The adherence rate for lenvatinib in Japanese patients with thyroid and hepatocellular carcinoma in real-world clinical practice was more than 90% in this study. Hypertension was a major reason for non-adherence, followed by hand-foot skin reactions and diarrhea.

Published: November 2023

Background
Virtual multidisciplinary team meetings (VMDTM) provide a standard of care that is not limited by physical distance or social restrictions. And so, when the COVID-19 pandemic imposed irrefutable social restrictions and made in-person meetings impossible, many hospitals switched to the VMDTMs. Although the pandemic might have highlighted the ease of VMDTMs, these virtual meetings have existed over the past decade, albeit less in importance. Despite their recent importance, no review has previously assessed the feasibility of VMDTMs through the eyes of the participants, the barriers participants face, nor their comparison with the in-person format. We undertook this scoping review to map existing literature and assess the perspectives of VMDTM participants.

Material and methods
We searched MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, and Google Scholar from inception till July 1st, 2023 to select studies that evaluated the perspectives of participants of VMDTMs regarding the core components that make up a VMDMT. Four authors, independently, extracted data from all included studies. Two authors separated data into major themes and sub-themes.

Results
We identified six core, intrinsic aspects of a VMDTM that are essential to its structure: (1) organization, (2) case discussion and decision-making, (3) teamwork and communication, (4) training and education, (5) technology, and (6) patient-related aspect. VMDTMs have a high overall satisfaction rating amongst participants. The preference, however, is for a hybrid model of multidisciplinary teams. VMDTMs offer support to isolated physicians, help address complex cases, and offer information that may not be available elsewhere. The periodical nature of VMDTMs is appropriate for their consideration as CMEs. Adequate technology is paramount to the sustenance of the format.

Conclusion
VMDTMs are efficient and offer a multidisciplinary consensus without geographical limitations. Despite certain technical and social limitations, VMDTM participants are highly satisfied with the format, although the preference lies with a hybrid model.
Identifying the original function of vessels deposited in Lusatian Urnfield burials: the case of the Czernikowice cemetery (Poland)

Abstract
Usage patterns are one of the leading research issues in archaeological pottery studies. Non-cinerary vessels deposited in burials of the Lusatian Urnfield are particularly intriguing since they did not typically undergo detailed functional analysis. Their function has usually been determined based on the shape and surface treatment. Thus, grave pottery is widely regarded to have been explicitly fashioned for mortuary practices and not used for other purposes. It applies particularly to ceramic items other than containers, such as zoomorphic vessels, figurines, and rattles, which must have played a significant role in funeral ceremonies.
The paper presents the outcome of morphological, stylistic and chromatographic analyses of vessels deposited in the Lusatian Urnfield cremation graves found at site 2 in Czernikowice, Legnica district, Poland. The ceramic items come from well-investigated grave contexts dated to Montelius’ periods IV and V. The results indicate that most of the analysed vessels had contact with substances of vegetal and faunal origin.

This study intends to create students' awareness toward the use of metacognitive strategy components and identify their choices of metacognitive strategy components after interventions. 45 students, who learnt French as a foreign language, participated in this study. Ellis’ Second Language Acquisition model and Metacognitive Learning Strategy Model from O'Malley & Chamot were used as a theoretical foundation and framework. Interview protocol was administered as the main research instrument to collect students' perceptions together with a questionnaire. The results were classified into metacognitive strategy components, which are planning, monitoring, and evaluation. Mixed methods research design utilising the quasi-experimental design were used to investigate how students’ perceptions demonstrated their choice of strategies, which were administered before and after the interventions. Validity and reliability of the questionnaire were tested using SPSS. After three interventions using metacognitive strategy components, the results showed that students' perceptions affected choices of strategies; creating awareness among students. 68% of students used evaluation strategies, 54.93% used monitoring strategies, and only 35.93% used planning strategies.
Un estudio comparado de la voz femenina en la poesía del pueblo marginado del sur global
Authors: Kumar Ashwani 
Published: November 2023

El presente artículo examinará la literatura (poesía) de dos grupos marginados, los afrocaribeños en el Caribe y los dalits en la India. Se enfoca en demostrar cómo las dos colectividades diferentes, del Caribe y la India, están constituidas por estructuras de opresión socioeconómica, cultural y política que definen sus identidades en las respectivas sociedades. Mi intento sería examinar las voces de protesta que emergen en la poesía de mujeres afrocaribeñas, Nancy Morejón y Excilia Saldaña y las poetas dalits de hindi, Sushila Takabhore, Nirmala Putul, Anita Bharti, etc., que denuncian la discriminación con base en la casta en la India y la raza en el Caribe hispánico, que complican las identidades del pueblo marginado.
Se sabe que las mujeres afrocaribeñas y dalits están oprimidas en sus respectivas sociedades. Son víctimas de las cinco caras de la opresión. Intentaré reflexionar el problema siguiendo la teoría de cinco caras de opresión (pensadas por la científica política estadounidense Iris Marion Young), como la Explotación, la Marginación, la Impotencia, el Imperialismo cultural y la Violencia.
También exploraré cómo la teoría de la crítica india Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak (“¿Puede el subalterno hablar?”) en la que opina que el subalterno no puede hablar, está desafiada por las voces de los poetas dalits. Además, también se encuentra un debate entre Spivak y Roberto Fernández Retamar (Caliban) sobre ¿cómo debe adquirir su voz propia el subalterno? Con la lectura del libro Caliban y otros ensayos (1979) de Retamar, intentaré responder al argumento de Spivak de cómo deben usar el idioma los subalternos.

Aspergillus flavus is the main pathogenic fungi for peanut kernels, and it has highly negative economic and health impacts. To explore the biological control agent against A. flavus, two antagonistic strains were screened from 70 bacteria isolates from moldy stuff and identified as Burkholderia plantarii M1-8 and Burkholderia glumae M6-4. In vitro pathogen inhibition determination indicated culture filtrates of M1-8 and M6-4 had distinct inhibition zones and could decrease the mycelial growth of A. flavus. Furthermore, the biocontrol assay showed moldy rates of peanut seeds treated with culture filtrate were much lower than that of the control group. The biocontrol -efficacy of M1-8 and M6-4 culture filtrate reached 88.6% and 84.2%, respectively, which were higher than that of the sorbic acid treatment group. Moreover, culture filtrate of M1-8 was tolerant to proteinase K, high light, pH and temperature (below 70°C), and had good stability of antifungal activity. The results indicate that these two antifungal strains could be used as biocontrol agents for controlling A. flavus during the peanut supply and -storage period.
Determinants of Mergers and Acquisitions in Emerging Asian Countries: Effects of Confucianism and Technological Development
Authors: Ларченко Никита , Ружанская Людмила 
Published: November 2023

Asian emerging markets exemplify the contemporary trend of glocalization (globalization-localization). Countries in this region have strong cultural bonds shaped by the influence of Confucianism, which has given rise to a distinctive approach to conducting business, including the realm of mergers and acquisitions. The homogeneity of cultural values fosters trust among parties even in cross-border transactions, impacting the assessment of transaction premiums. Simultaneously, within this region, a cluster of Asian Tiger countries distinguishes itself by leading in technological advancements, particularly in the realm of digitalization. The escalating competitiveness of technologically advanced companies further influences estimates of transaction premiums.
This paper endeavors to delve into the theoretical aspects of these issues and substantiate, through empirical evidence, the cultural impact of Confucianism and technological progress on mergers and acquisitions (M&A). Our research is grounded in a database encompassing 2677 cross-border deals compiled from January 1, 2002, to January 1, 2021, for 10 burgeoning Asian markets. This study marks the first exploration of M&A deal value and firm valuation during transactions utilizing a glocal region as a case study. Our primary findings substantiate the notion that cultural affinities exert a substantialinfluence on M&A deal values, with a propensity for lower values among culturally similar countries. Congruent cultural values build trust among stakeholders and safeguard from additional risks. These results give policymakers and business entities an opportunity to adjust their decisions and refine their comprehension of factors that shape the economy.

<p>This article examines school to work transition among marginalized youth in Central Java, Indonesia in the contemporary neoliberal era. We apply Bourdieusian approach as a tool of analysis to cover both material-objective and cultural-subjective dimensions of social class in the phenomenon of youth transition. This research applies qualitative method and data was collected via in-depth interviews, observations and Focus Group Discussions in 2018. This article shows how class as an existing condition of inequality manifested in unequally distributed economic, cultural and social capital effect on the inability of young people to follow the changing rule of the game in the new normality of works. Despite young people tried to negotiate this complex condition using their on-hand stock of social capital; their job option still represents the working-class background.

Published: November 2023

Abstract
We designed an RF receiver of the radio telescopeto detect the 21 cm hydrogen emission in our Galaxy. Further, the design of an RF receiver system demands meticulous judgement on the expected performance of the discrete devices like the LNA(Low Noise amplifier) and LO(Local Oscillator) are necessary to the overall sensitivity of the receiver system. In this paper, we design and realize the MMIC (Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit) LNA and LO for the radio telescope RF receiver. We also present the spectrum of the 21 cm hydrogen line. For the design of the LNA, we have chosen a MAR6-SM+ bipolar transistor because it is characterized by low noise and high gain. The measuring results showed good concordance with the frequency of the RF receiver.
