Abstract

Background
The Observational Medical Outcome Partners-Common Data Model (OMOP-CDM) is an international standard for harmonizing electronic medical record (EMR) data. However, since it does not standardize unstructured data, such as medical imaging, using this data in multi-institutional collaborative research becomes challenging. To overcome this limitation, extensions such as the Radiology Common Data Model (R-CDM) have emerged to include and standardize these data types.

Objective
This work aims to demonstrate that by standardizing optical coherence tomography (OCT) data into an R-CDM format, multi-institutional collaborative studies analyzing changes in retinal thickness in patients with long-standing chronic diseases can be performed efficiently.

Methods
We standardized OCT images collected from two tertiary hospitals for research purposes using the R-CDM. As a proof of concept, we conducted a comparative analysis of retinal thickness between patients who have chronic diseases and those who have not. Patients diagnosed or treated for retinal and choroidal diseases, which could affect retinal thickness, were excluded from the analysis. Using the existing OMOP-CDM at each institution, we extracted cohorts of patients with chronic diseases and control groups, performing large-scale 1:2 propensity score matching (PSM). Subsequently, we linked the OMOP-CDM and R-CDM to extract the OCT image data of these cohorts and analyzed central macular thickness (CMT) and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness using a linear mixed model.

Results
OCT data of 261,874 images from Ajou University Medical Center (AUMC) and 475,626 images from Seoul National University Bundang Hospital (SNUBH) were standardized in the R-CDM format. The R-CDM databases established at each institution were linked with the OMOP-CDM database. Following 1:2 PSM, the type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) cohort included 957 patients, and the control cohort had 1603 patients. During the follow-up period, significant reductions in CMT were observed in the T2DM cohorts at AUMC (P=.04) and SNUBH (P=.007), without significant changes in RNFL thickness (AUMC: P=.56; SNUBH: P=.39). Notably, a significant reduction in CMT during the follow-up was observed only at AUMC in the hypertension cohort, compared to the control group (P=.04); no other significant differences in retinal thickness were found in the remaining analyses.

Conclusions
The significance of our study lies in demonstrating the efficiency of multi-institutional collaborative research that simultaneously uses clinical data and medical imaging data by leveraging the OMOP-CDM for standardizing EMR data and the R-CDM for standardizing medical imaging data.

Authors: Dwi Hiremawati Anik , Mulyeni Sri 
Published: January 2025

Job satisfaction is an essential component that affects the performance and productivity of health workers, including physiotherapists. This study aims to determine whether there is a relationship between personality traits and job satisfaction of physiotherapists in Bandung. This study used a correlational quantitative method with a sample of sixty-eight physiotherapists selected using the Cochran formula. Data collection was carried out by distributing the Big Five Inventory (BFI) adaptation questionnaire to measure personality traits and modified job satisfaction. The regression analysis results showed no significant relationship between personality traits and job satisfaction among physiotherapists in the city of Bandung. These findings help us understand that personality type is not the only factor influencing physiotherapists’ job satisfaction.

Keywords: Personality traits, Job satisfaction, Physiotherapist.
The Ukrainian Ecclesiastical Crisis and Its Global Reverberations: The Russian Exarchate in Africa as a Case Study
Authors: KOUREMENOS Nikos 
Published: January 2025

This article explores the Ukrainian ecclesiastical crisis, focusing on the granting of autocephaly to the Orthodox Church of Ukraine (OCU) by the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople in 2019 and its global repercussions. The study highlights the schism with the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC), which views this move as a challenge to its canonical authority and geopolitical influence. A key case examined is the ROC’s establishment of the Exarchate in Africa, traditionally under the jurisdiction of the Patriarchate of Alexandria, showcasing how theological disputes intersect with geopolitical ambitions. The article delves into issues such as nationalism, the Russky Mir ideology, and canonical principles to analyze the broader implications for Orthodox unity, synodality, and global mission. It argues that while the crisis threatens ecclesiastical cohesion, it also offers an opportunity for renewal, reflection, and a redefinition of Orthodox structures to better navigate contemporary challenges.

UNESCO Water Structures: Heritage, Innovation and Sustainable Use
Authors: Nováková Lucia 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Ancient water structures, such as Roman aqueducts and Persian qanats, reflect past civilizations’ sophisticated engineering and resource management skills. Roman aqueducts supported urban, agricultural, and sanitary systems through precise design and extensive networks, while Persian qanats provided consistent access to groundwater in arid climates. Both structures, recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage sites, embody significant cultural, historical, and technical values. This study focuses on a selection of these ancient systems, chosen for their exemplary representation of diverse approaches to water management, to explore their sustainable principles, adaptive reuse, and integration into modern environments. The study highlights their continued relevance in landscape architecture and water management practices while acknowledging the limitations of the study’s scope to specific ancient examples.

Abstract
While there is no doubt that M&A activity in the corporate sector follows wave-like patterns, there is no uniquely accepted definition of such a “merger wave” in a time series context. Count-data time series models are often employed to measure M&A activity and merger waves are then defined as clusters of periods with an unusually high number of M&A deals retrospectively. However, the distribution of deals is usually not normal (Gaussian). More recently, different approaches that take into account the time-varying nature of M&A activity have been proposed, but still require the a-priori selection of parameters. We propose adapting the combination of the Local Parametric Approach and Multiplier Bootstrap to a count data setup in order to identify locally homogeneous intervals in the time series of M&A activity. This eliminates the need for manual parameter selection and allows for the generation of accurate forecasts without any manual input.
The impact of social media marketing efforts on buying intentions within the brewing sector
Authors: Lima Ana , Cruz Marco , Pacheco Jorge 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Social Media Marketing Activities (SMMA) encompass several dimensions that enhance brand engagement on social media platforms: Entertainment focuses on engaging users through fun; Interaction emphasises the two-way communication between the brand and its consumers; Trends involves leveraging current cultural and market trends; Personalisation deals with tailoring messages; Advertising refers to the direct promotion of products; e-WOM Intensity measures the frequency and spread of information; e-WOM Emotional Value evaluates the emotional impact of this information; and e-WOM Content evaluates the quality of information shared. This study used a quantitative methodology to explore the impact of social media marketing activities (SMMA) on Instagram on users’ purchase intentions, with specific reference to the SuperBock brand. Data collection was carried out using an online questionnaire. The survey was administered to a non-probabilistic convenience sample of 202 individuals recruited primarily from social media platforms where SuperBock has an active presence. The convenience sampling method is preferred due to its ease of implementation in research design, cost effectiveness and time efficiency. Statistical analysis of the data was carried out using SPSS software. The results indicate that all dimensions of SMMA on SuperBock’s Instagram have a positive impact on consumers’ purchase intentions. The dimension ‘Advertising’ exerts the most significant positive impact, followed by ‘Emotional Value’ and ‘Intensity of e-WOM’. It was found that e-WOM dimensions play a significant role in influencing consumers’ purchasing decisions. This study advances our understanding of how Instagram influences purchase intentions for SuperBock. The use of a non-probabilistic convenience sample limits the generalisability of conclusions.
Channel preferences: Unveiling omnichannel behavior in sports and leisure product purchases
Authors: Nagy Akos , Kemeny Ildiko , Szucs Krisztian 
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Current customer segmentations in omnichannel retail are based on channel usage and tend to be rather descriptive. In comparison, this research focuses on the role of “need for touch” (NFT) and channel preferences (attractiveness, appropriateness, satisfactoriness) introduced as antecedents to channel choice. The aim of this research was to develop a predictive model of omnichannel purchase behaviour and use its results to identify customer segments in the so far under-researched sports and leisure category, where the key decision factor of NFT seems to dominate when considering information and purchase options. We have examined its role and incorporated it as an exogenous variable and channel preferences as mediating variables in a SEM model to predict omnichannel purchase behaviour. Using the latent scores of channel preferences, we performed a cluster analysis and introduced various segments. In the proposed structural model preferences towards the information channel and the purchase channel serve as key mediators. Webrooming behaviour is negatively related to offline search channel preference, but showrooming is positively related to it. Meanwhile, webrooming behaviour is positively related to offline shopping channel preference, but showrooming is negatively related to it. Competitive mediation results indicate cross-channel synergies and complementary mediation results point out lock-in effects. Six customer segments were identified, and we found significant differences in their shopping behaviour. Lock-in effect arises in the case of online information enthusiasts and online shopping enthusiasts. While in the case of the webrooming-oriented cluster, offline shopping was more appropriate and satisfactory, and positive cross-channel synergies appeared to be prevalent.

Challeng in Pronouns Translation: An Analysis of 'Noktah Merah Perkawinan' Subtitles
Authors: Hasana Nurul , Prihantoro Prihantoro 
Published: January 2025

In Indonesian, intimacy, social status, and politeness can be linguistically marked. Conversely, a near equivalent English pronoun cannot always completely contextualize the foregoing aspects. This study examines the translation of pronouns in movie subtitles entitled “Noktah Merah Perkawinan” to see if aspects beyond meaning, such as politeness and hierarchy, are conveyed. Data for this study were collected from subtitles in both Indonesian and English. A parallel corpus and mark segment were created for each pronoun found in both subtitles, and pronouns were identified bidirectionally. Using Molina & Albir's translation techniques and Sneddon's analytical schemes of Indonesian pronouns, the translations were analyzed in relation to theories of politeness and grammar. The findings reveal that some translations are acceptable and semantically accurate, but some fail to convey social aspects, kinship relationships, and levels of politeness as expressed in the source language (Indonesian). We argue that this is caused by cultural and grammatical differences between Indonesian and English. These findings have significant social implications, highlighting the need for deeper cultural understanding in translation practices. When the translated pronouns fail to convey crucial social dynamics, such as hierarchy or respect the subtitled content may unintentionally misrepresent interpersonal relationships, impacting cross-cultural communication.

Published: January 2025

Background. The XRQ sunflower genome has been sequenced but not yet fully annotated, and not all candidate genes for most traits have been identified. Disclosing the relationships among traits in this study will help to understand the genetic control over phenotypic characters.Materials and methods. A set of 237 sunflower lines from VIR’s genetic collection was phenotyped for their morphological characters (plant height; branching type; shapes and sizes of the leaf, petiole, flower head, disk and ray florets; downy mildew damage rate) and genotyped with molecular markers. DNA markers were used to identify accessions carrying the Rf gene and CMS. Factor analysis was applied to structure the genetic collection.Results and discussion. The data of 2017 and 2018 were compared using the analysis of variance. The results of the latter testified to the heritability of morphological characters, as well as to the alignment and purity of lines from VIR’s genetic collection of sunflower. New data were obtained on the phenotypic diversity of sunflower and stability of its agronomic traits across the growing seasons.Conclusion. Groups of interacting characters were identified by the factor analysis: 1) plant height, and duration of the growing season phases; 2) pollen fertility restoration with CMS PET1, SCAR markers HRG02 and HRG01 of the Rf1 gene, and branching; 3) the color of ray and disk florets, and petiole shape, as well as lamina surface shape. Lines with CMS PET1 were classified into three groups differing in the systems (possibly genes) of pollen fertility restoration. The factor analysis made it possible to confirm the assumption that several Rf genes whose manifestation differed from the Rf1 gene were present in the studied sunflower lines from VIR’s genetic collection.
Analysis of polymorphism at the FaRca1 locus to identify strawberry genotypes resistant to Colletotrichum acutatum

Published: January 2025

Background. Anthracnose fruit rot (AFR), caused by Colletotrichum acutatum J.H. Simmonds, is a dangerous disease of strawberry. The employment of cultivars with genetically determined resistance will minimize the use of chemical means of plant protection and increase the produce quality. The objective of the study was to analyze allelic polymorphism at the FaRca1 locus in strawberry cultivars to identify promising genetic sources of resistance to anthracnose fruit rot caused by C. acutatum.Materials and methods. The materials of this study were 57 strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) cultivars. The allelic state of the FaRca1 locus was identified by high-resolution melting analysis (HRM) using the ID3F and ID1R primers.Results and conclusion. In the studied strawberry cultivars, the FaRca1 resistance locus was represented by two allelic combinations: homozygous susceptible genotype (AA) and heterozygous resistant genotype (AB). The resistance allele FaRca1 (genotype AB) was detected in 50.9% of strawberry cultivars. The homozygous susceptible genotype (AA) was characteristic of 49.1% studied strawberry cultivars. There were no strawberry cultivars with a homozygous resistant genotype (BB). Among the Russian strawberry cultivars, the FaRca1 locus was identified in 44.4% of forms, while among the foreign ones, it was identified in 53.8%. Among the strawberry genotypes developed at the I.V. Michurin Federal Science Center, the FaRca1 allele was identified in cvs. ‘Urozhaynaya CGL’, ‘Flora’ and ‘Yarkaya’. Promising genetic sources for marker-assisted breeding are strawberry cultivars combining several resistance factors in the genome: ‘Borovitskaya’ and ‘Aprica’ (FaRca1 and Rca2 anthracnose resistance loci), ‘Korona’ and ‘Ostara’ (FaRca1 anthracnose resistance locus, and 08 To-f powdery mildew resistance locus), and ‘Bylinnaya’ (FaRca1 anthracnose resistance locus, 08 To-f powdery mildew resistance locus, and Rpf1 red stele root rot resistance locus).
