Abstract
This study was conducted to examine the variation and growth performance among eight and nine provinces at age 15 years in two trial sites in Myanmar. At the Ngalaik Reserved Forest (Ngalaik RF), the survival rates of provenances ranged from 62.4 % to 80.8 %. The Kanbalu followed by the Oaktwin and Nattalin provenances had the best survival rates at 80.8 %, 79.2 %, and 77.6 % respectively. Likewise, the survival rates ranged from 25.6 % to 74.4 % at the Yenwe Reserved Forest (Yenwe RF). The Nattalin followed by the Bago and Oaktwin provenances had the best survival rates at 74.4 %, 65.6 %, and 63.2 % respectively. The differences in stem form were found to be significant at both sites, whereas 36.24 % of teak in Ngalaik RF and 20.23 % in Yenwe RF were recorded in the class of straight tree. Based on the overall assessment of traits, teak trees in the provenances of Ngalaik RF had much better traits quality than that of Yenwe RF. According to analyses, the Bago provenance was outstanding among the provenances, followed by Phyu, Nattalin, and Paukkhaung provenances at both sites. The best-performing Bago provenance likely grew 10 % betterthan the average volume at Ngalaik RF, 1.4 % more than the average at the Yenwe RF. Among all provenances at both sites, the Thabeikkyin provenance was likely to separate as the poorest one. Based on the results, the selection of mother trees (plus trees) would make a great contribution to the application of future tree improvement programs in Myanmar.

Authors: KLYMOVA KATERYNA 
Published: July 2023

The study is devoted to the problem of improving the content of the business Ukrainian course in a higher educational institution. Based on the relevance of the problem of modernizing the theoretical part of the “Business Ukrainian” course, the author defines the purpose of the article – to analyze the content components outlined in the educational program of the discipline, to select specific topics from the educational modules that need to be corrected, and to propose additional lecturing materials.
It is emphasized that in the process of studying the discipline, the linguistic and communicative professional competence of the future specialists of various specialties is formed. The content of the educational program on the Ukrainian language should reflect the main trends in the development of Ukrainian linguistics and linguomethodology. Taking into account the changes in modern science and the cultural and political life of society, the researcher emphasizes the need to update the lecture material of the academic discipline; at the same time, one should be guided by the principles of scientificity, systematicity and perspective of education. The article provides definitions of the concepts of “discourse”, “professional discourse”, “national language consciousness”, “types of translation” proposed by linguists and teachers, as well as the author's definition of the concept of “linguistic and communicative professional competence”.
In accordance with the subject of the academic discipline, the author consistently introduces the linguistic materials of the appendices to the lectures, which systematize, expand and deepen the knowledge of the future specialists about the typology of discourses; the current rules of drafting documents; changes in Ukrainian spelling; electronic dictionaries; the phenomenon of the “neological boom” during the war in Ukraine; the requirements of observing academic integrity when writing a student research paper; the peculiarities of professional text editing, etc. In addition, when highlighting the issue of editing professional texts, it is advisable to give examples of typical speech mistakes caused by internal and external factors, especially the influence of another language, as well as regional and social dialects. Without pretending to the universality of corrections made to the content of the business Ukrainian course, the researcher emphasizes the need for teachers to systematically update educational and methodological support, as well as constant self-study and self-improvement of scientific and pedagogical workers. The author considers the problem raised in the article to be promising.
Sterile body fluids infections: Profile of bacteria and their antimicrobial resistance pattern in a tertiary care hospital from Uttar Pradesh
Authors: Singh Peetam , Pandey Anita , Bisht Arjun Singh 
Published: July 2023

Objectives:
Infections of sterile body fluids are important and significant causes of mortality and morbidity, especially healthcare-associated infections. Species-level identification and antimicrobial resistance profile of bacteria are important determinants while selecting appropriate antimicrobials for empirical and targeted therapy. We conducted this study to observe the distribution of various bacteria and their antimicrobial resistance profile isolated from sterile body fluids.

Materials and Methods:
We conducted this study in a tertiary care teaching hospital from western Uttar Pradesh for a period of 2 years. All sterile body fluid samples were processed by conventional aerobic bacterial culture followed by their identification up to species level by conventional biochemicals following standard microbiological procedures. The antimicrobial susceptibility of the bacterial pathogens grown in culture was tested by Kirby–Bauer disk diffusion method and interpretation of susceptibility testing was done according to CLSI guidelines 2020.

Results:
A total of 1980 sterile body fluid samples were collected during the study period and 192 samples were found positive on culture for bacterial pathogens. Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) were predominantly isolated, comprising 83.33% in comparison to 16.67 % of Gram-positive cocci. Among Staphylococcus aureus isolates, 75% were methicillin-resistant S. aureus. All S. aureus isolates were sensitive against vancomycin and linezolid. Among GNB, 25% were extended-spectrum beta-lactamase producers while 62.5% were carbapenemase producers. All GNBs were sensitive to colistin.

Conclusion:
From this study, we concluded that the pathogenic bacteria implicated in infections of sterile body fluids are predominantly multidrug-resistant. There is a huge variation in data on the distribution of bacterial species isolated from sterile body fluids and their antimicrobial resistance patterns from different geographical locations and healthcare settings. Thus, data from a particular healthcare setting are important for empirical treatment in that healthcare setting.
A COLLECTION OF TERRACOTTA FIGURINES FROM MARGIANA (THE YuTAKE MATERIALS)
Authors: Двуреченская Н. Д. 
Published: July 2023

В научный оборот вводится коллекция из восьми терракотовых статуэток, найденных в подъеме с территории столичных городов Маргианы Эрк-калы и Гяуркалы. Большая часть статуэток относится к известным и наиболее распространенным в Маргиане археологическим типам I и VIII. Остальные представлены как известными иконографическими образами, так и новыми, не находящими прямых аналогий в регионе. На примере новой коллекции отрабатывается использование разработанной ранее археологической типологии антропоморфных статуэток Бактрии, Согда и Маргианы. Несмотря на подъемный характер статуэтки из коллекции ЮТАКЭ внесли существенные дополнения в понимание развития отдельных археологических типов антропоморфных статуэток. С другой стороны, вновь подтвердилась высокая степень стан дартизации и узкий ряд иконографических образов, бытовавший в регионе в 1–3 вв. н. э. Новый иконографический образ, представленный в женской статуэтке № 8 в башнеобразной короне впервые вводимый в научный оборот, только подчеркивает этот вывод.
A COLLECTION OF TERRACOTTA FIGURINES FROM MARGIANA (THE YuTAKE MATERIALS)
This is the publication of eight terracotta figurines from chance finds at the capital cities of Margiana, Erk-qala and Gyaur-qala. Most of them belong to the most common types I and VIII. The rest include both well-known types and new ones, which find no direct parallels in the region. The classification of anthropomorphic figurines of Bactria, Sogd and Margiana developed previously has been applied to this new collection. Even though the YuTAKE1 figurines come from chance finds, they add much to our understanding of the development of several archaeological types of anthropomorphic figurines. On the other hand, they confirm a high level of standardization and a small variety of iconographic types used in the region in the 1st–3rd centuries A.D. The new iconographic type of a female in a tower-shaped crown (figurine no. 8) only strengthens the abovementioned conclusion.
STUDY OF INTERFACIAL INTERACTIONS AND DYNAMICS IN NANO-PARTICLES WITH POLYMER SHELL BY IR SPECTROSCOPY
Authors: Рыжов В.А. 
Published: July 2023

Межфазные взаимодействия и цепная динамика были изучены в четко охарактеризованных наночастицах ядро-оболочка с ядрами из аморфного кремнезема и кристаллического оксида алюминия и оболочками из не кристаллизуемого поли-(винил-1-пирролидона) (ПВП) и кристаллизуемого поли(этиленгликоль) (ПЭГ). Варьирующийся состав частиц вызывал закономерные изменения толщины оболочки от 1-2 нм (мономолекулярный слой) до 90 нм. Спектроскопия в дальнем и среднем ИК-диапазоне позволила выявить водородные связи и межфазные взаимодействия Льюиса/Бренстеда (Л-Б) в изученных системах, а также изменения динамики и конформационного состояния полимерных цепей в зависимости от толщины нанооболочки. Наиболее выраженные особенности были обнаружены для мономолекулярных полимерных слоев. Взаимодействия Л-Б были более сильными с подложкой из оксида алюминия, чем с кремнеземом. В отличие от объемного полимера монослой ПВП характеризовался необычайно неоднородностью. Монослой ПЭГ, адсорбированный на кремнеземе, был полностью аморфным, тогда как слой с аномально тонкими ламелями толщиной до 3 нм, адсорбированный на поверхности оксида алюминия, был высоко кристаллическим.
Interfacial interactions and chain dynamics were studied in well-characterized core-shell nanoparticles with cores of amorphous silica and crystalline alumina and shells of noncrystallizable poly-(vinyl-1-pyrrolidone) (PVP) and crystallizable poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG). The varying composition of the particles caused regular changes in the shell thickness from 1–2 nm (monomolecular layer) to 90 nm. Spectroscopy in the far and mid-IR ranges made it possible to reveal hydrogen bonds and Lewis/Brønsted (L-B) interfacial interactions in the studied systems, as well as changes in the dynamics and conformational state of polymer chains depending on the thickness of the nanoshell. The most pronounced features were found for monomolecular polymer layers. LB interactions were stronger with the alumina substrate than with silica. In contrast to the bulk polymer, the PVP monolayer was characterized by unusually inhomogeneity. The PEG monolayer adsorbed on silica was completely amorphous, while the layer with abnormally thin lamellae up to 3 nm thick adsorbed on the alumina surface was highly crystalline.

Published: July 2023

Синтез Фишера-Тпроша – важный процесс получения синтетических углеводородов из синтез-газа. Однако, на данный момент он применяется в промышленности в ограниченных масштабах, что связано с низкой активностью катализаторов, их быстрой дезактивацией, а также высокой экзотермичностью реакции. Разработка новых активных и стабильных катализаторов синтеза Фишера-Тропша является важной задачей для исследователей. В данной работе проведено сравнение методов синтеза рутенийсодержащих катализаторов, а также используемых носителей, в процессе жидкофазного синтеза Фишера-Тропша.
Fischer-Tprosch synthesis is an important process for obtaining synthetic hydrocarbons from synthesis gas. However, at the moment, it is used in industry on a limited scale due to the low activity of catalysts, their rapid deactivation, as well as the high exothermicity of the reaction. The development of new active and stable Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalysts is an important task for researchers. In this paper, the methods of synthesis of ruthenium-containing catalysts, as well as the catalyst supports used, were compared in the process of the liquid-phase Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.

Authors: Nguyen Thi-Trang-Nhung , Vu Manh-Cuong 
Published: July 2023

Purpose: The current study aims to investigate the mediating role of organizational learning (OL) on the relationship between transformational leadership (TFL) and employee creativity (EC) in Vietnamese SMEs.

Theoretical framework: The world underwent enormous and ongoing changes in SMEs after the Covid-19 pandemic. Leaders and employees must be more effective and adaptive to enhance systems and processes and meet client requests. Recently, SMEs in Vietnam have struggled to improve CEOs and staff with the professional credentials necessary to compete in the market and integrate.

Design/methodology/approach: The framework and hypotheses were examined using SEM on SPSS and AMOS software to analyse the data after receiving 397 valid responses from SMEs in Vietnam.

Findings: Findings confirmed that TFL positively affects EC and OL. The role of individual motivation on individual consideration outweighs those of the other characteristics of TFL. OL played a partly mediator role in the relationship between TFL and EC.

Research, Practical & Social implications: This study provides an inventory of knowledge about the reality of OL and its mediating role on the relationship between TLF and EC, which contributes to enriching the library in overall and Vietnamese in specific in this subject.

Originality/value: This paper is one of the first papers in the Vietnamese SMEs context to address the mediating effect of OL between TLF and EC.
Heritage Tourism and Cultural Identity in China: Challenges and Opportunities for Development
Authors: Ma Sun Nuo Zhu , Mohame Badaruddin Bin 
Published: July 2023

Purpose: Being culturally rich and historically significant, China is seeing a growth in heritage and cultural tourism. From being seen as a country with a singular national identity, local communities are increasingly marketing their local heritage and culture for heritage tourism.

Theoretical framework: These activities include the generation of money and the facilitation of the development of infrastructure. The advantages are mutually beneficial; for example, travelers report feeling psychologically better after participating in heritage tourism activities because they are motivated by feelings of nostalgia and a sense of cultural connection.

Design/methodology/approach: In this regard, authenticity becomes a state driven effort, where values in communities are expected to change as needed. For example, in Lijiang the local Dongba religious rituals which had been included into the UNESCO Memory of the World Register had been reinvented to be more suited for tourist consumption.

Findings: These activities include the generation of money and the facilitation of the development of infrastructure. The advantages are mutually beneficial; for example, travelers report feeling psychologically better after participating in heritage tourism activities because they are motivated by feelings of nostalgia and a sense of cultural connection. Despite this, the advantages come with certain negatives, which manifest themselves as physical and cultural harms that are incurred as a result of the situation.

Research, Practical & Social implications: To begin, it paves the way for specific historic places to become a ritualized channel via which collective social memory may be conveyed and gathered together. To elaborate, heritage tourism enables a person to validate their membership in a nation based on the imagined reality that has been established through the course of their history.

Originality/value: Mentioned three perspectives in authenticity in China, namely spatial separation, value shifting and emotional banishment. In this regard, authenticity becomes a state driven effort, where values in communities are expected to change as needed.

Authors: Murad Estabraq Ismael Hama , Mahfoudh Slim 
Published: July 2023

Purpose: The rapid spread of the COVID-19 Pandemic had significant effects on the global and local economy alike, represented in the decline in economic growth rates and the decline in international oil prices as a result of the decrease in global consumption of it, and then its greatest impact on the local economy was the rule of economic instability.

Theoretical framework: This is as a result of the decline in oil revenues and the increase in the size of the financial deficit in the general budget, which led to the financing of that deficit by decreasing the exchange value of the dinar, and then the rise in inflation rates in the country.

Design/Methodology/Approach: the decline in dollar revenues in light of this crisis and the prevailing impact of the struggle stock exchange on the exchange rate contributed to the widening of the gap between the two prices in the economy.

Findings: the fluctuation of the parallel exchange rate and its reaching 1240 dinars per dollar.

Research, practical & social implications: work should be done to establish sovereign funds in which to be saved in times of high oil prices, to be resorted to in times of crisis.

Originality/ Value: this experience is applicable in many oil countries as the Public Revenue Control Fund In Algeria and the Kuwaiti Fund for Future Generations.
