Published: April 2023

BackgroundTraumatic brain injury (TBI) outcomes are dependent on patients' biological sex (e.g., hormone levels) and sociocultural gender (e.g., norms, responsibilities). Informal caregivers additionally experience disruptions to identity and roles post-TBI. However, information on this topic remains largely unavailable to patients and caregivers.PurposeThis study aimed to determine the effectiveness of a one-time educational intervention on sex and gender influences in TBI for patients and informal caregivers.Materials and methodsWe conducted a pilot pre-test/post-test randomized control-group design study. Groups (i.e., passive, active and control) consisted a total of 16 persons with TBI and caregivers (75% persons with TBI, 63% women). Individual and group learning gains, and group-average normalized gain, were computed for three learning domains: knowledge, attitude, and skill. An intervention with an average normalized gain of ≥30% was considered effective. Educational intervention evaluation and qualitative comments post-participation were summarized.ResultsThe passive group demonstrated the highest average normalized gain across the three learning domains, including 100% for knowledge, 40% and 61% for attitude, and 37% for skill. The remaining groups did not reach an average normalized gain of ≥30%, except for the attitude domain of the control group (33% and 32%). Two key categories were identified qualitatively: (1) gendered self-expectations post-injury and (2) implications of gender stereotypes in rehabilitation, including the need for rehabilitation treatment to look beyond sex and gender. The post-participation educational session evaluation conveyed high appraisal of content, organization, and usability of the intervention.ConclusionA one-time passive educational intervention on sex and gender in TBI may improve knowledge, attitude, and skill on the topic of sex and gender among adults with TBI and caregivers. Obtaining knowledge and skill on sex and gender effects in TBI can potentially help persons with TBI and caregivers adapt to changes in roles and behaviours post-injury.

Published: April 2023

BackgroundAs the demand for kidney transplants continues to increase globally, healthcare institutions face a challenge to bridge the gap between patients waitlisted for kidney transplants and the number of donors. A major factor influencing the donor's decision is the operative risk and potential complications of the surgery. Open surgical approaches have been vastly replaced with laparoscopic donor nephrectomies as the standard of practice. However, there is a growing body of evidence pointing towards its potential superiority over laparoscopic methods. In this study, we aim to present our experience on outcomes of Robotic-Assisted Live Donor Nephrectomies (RALDN), the first series of its kind in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).MethodsWe retrospectively collected data from patients who underwent RALDN at Mediclinc City Hospital. Demographic data, laboratory investigations, and operative details were collected and analyzed.ResultsSeven patients underwent RALDN between 2021 and April 2022 at our facility. Four donors were male while three were female. Median length of hospital stay was 4 days. In our study, one of the patients suffered from a Clavien-Dindo grade IV complication which necessitated prolonged admission.ConclusionWe conclude that RALDN is a safe method for donor kidney procurement, carrying a low risk of morbidity and mortality. This method could potentially evolve the number of kidney donors to address the issue of high kidney transplant demand.

Published: April 2023

Gut microbiota dysbiosis with increased pathogenic bacteria and decreased beneficial bacteria is associated with colorectal cancer (CRC) development. This study examined the effect of a newly developed probiotic formula in modulating CRC-related bacteria. We developed a probiotic formula containing three bifidobacteria (B. adolescentis, B. longum, and B. bifidum) based on the identification of bacterial species that showed significant correlations with CRC-related bacteria including Fusobacterium nucleatum (Fn), Lachnoclostridium sp. m3, Clostridium hathewayi (Ch), and Bacteroides clarus (Bc). We co-cultured Fn with each bifidobacterium or the combined formula and examined the growth of Fn by qPCR. The three individual bifidobacteria significantly inhibited the growth of Fn compared to the control treatment (24~65% inhibition; all p < 0.001). The combination of the three bifidobacteria showed a greater inhibitory effect on Fn growth (70% inhibition) than the individual bifidobacteria (all p < 0.05). We further examined the effect of the probiotic formula in a pilot study of 72 subjects (40 on probiotics; 32 with no intervention) for 4 weeks and followed them up for 12 weeks. The relative fecal abundances of the bifidobacteria in the formula and the CRC-related markers (Fn, m3, Ch, and Bc) were quantitated by qPCR before and after the intervention, and the combined CRC risk score (4Bac; Fn, m3, Ch, and Bc) was evaluated. Subjects with probiotics intervention showed significantly increased abundances of the bifidobacteria from week 2 to week 5 compared to baseline (p < 0.05), and the abundances dropped to baseline levels after the cessation of the intervention. There were significant decreases in the levels of CRC-related markers (Fn and m3) and the CRC risk score (4Bac) from week 2 to week 12 compared to baseline levels (p < 0.05) in the intervention group but not in the control group. A novel probiotic formula containing B. adolescentis, B. longum, and B. bifidum was effective in inhibiting the growth of F. nucleatum in vitro and improving the gut microbial environment against CRC development.
A legislative amendment within Dutch mental healthcare increases the administrative burden: a follow-up study
Authors: Maris Arjen 
Published: April 2023

Background: To be accountable to laws and regulations, healthcare professionals spend more than 40% of their time on administrative tasks. The Compulsory Mental Healthcare Act (CMHA) was introduced in Dutch mental healthcare in 2020. It was hypothesized that this legislative amendment would raise the administrative burden for some care professionals. Pilot studies in 2020 and 2021 visualized the exponentially rise of the administrative burden for care professionals, especially psychiatrists due to the transition. However the total response was too small and not generalizable.
Aim: gain more nationwide insight in the hypothesized raise of administrative burden of psychiatrists due to the implementation of the CMHA.
Method: Under the leadership of an advisory board of three medical director psychiatrists, a Likert scale questionnaire was further developed to investigate the administrative burden of psychiatrists in the Netherlands before and after transition. Open-ended questions provided the opportunity for feedback from the psychiatrists. The study was supported by the Department of Medical Directors (DMD) of The Netherlands Psychiatric Association (NPA).
Results: all mental health institutions members of the DMD of the NPA received an invitation to participate. 14 institutions (total N=158) responded. The data show a significant change in the time spent on administrative tasks, the usefulness of the administrative actions, the fit for use and ease of use of supporting systems. The forementioned all decreased significantly after the implementation.
Conclusion and discussion: Psychiatrists spend more time on administration than before the legislative amendment instead of helping vulnerable patients. None of the institutions has been able to use the transition to its advantage given the time spent on administrative tasks and the usefulness of these tasks. This is an unacceptable development in the field of mental health in the Netherlands and should be addressed to those who are responsible for the decision making, especially policy makers. These results show that the introduction of the CMHA have made the field of Dutch mental health an impossible area to work for.
Modelling and Measuring Innovation Culture
Authors: Davies Muriel , Buisine Stéphanie 
Published: April 2023

We aim to provide a conceptual model of innovation culture in organizations and build a survey tool to measure it. Innovation management focuses often on formalized processes whereas unwritten rules related to organizational culture are also a major factor for innovation and firms’ performance. We first position the role of culture with regard to innovation processes, then provide a model of innovation culture relying on five branches (External links, Teams, Organizational context, Individuals, and Leaders). Following the elaboration of this model called ETOILe, we address the issue of measuring it. In this paper, we focus on the less-known components such as External Links and design an ad hoc questionnaire.
The validation study is performed through a laboratory test with 115 professional participants followed by reliability analysis of data and principal components analysis. The results of the study enabled us to refine the diagnosis tool as well as the underlying model of innovation culture. The current version includes four branches (Team, Organization, Individuals, Leaders) and ten sub-dimensions including promotion and prevention regulatory focus, managerial practices, discovery and delivery skills, etc.
Because of its implicitness and intangibility, culture is often disregarded in the analysis of key ingredients of firms’ performance. Our model of innovation culture gathering such unwritten rules contributes to understanding why innovation is so natural and efficient in some companies, and why it is sometimes painful, despite robust managerial structure and methodological processes. Finally, we provide a diagnosis tool intended for all hierarchical levels of the organization, and not only for managerial staff. Our model and tool could be used at several levels: at the company’s level to grasp the overall cultural profile, at the department or team level to assess differences in innovation culture between subdivisions in a given company, and at a trans-company level to characterize cultural differences associated to business sectors (e.g., manufacturing sector, consulting sector, retail sector).
A Systematic Literature Review on Change and Leadership in Higher Education
Authors: McSharry Trevor 
Published: April 2023

This paper presents a systematic literature review that focuses on the topics of change and leadership in Higher Education, in order to synthesis existing research in this key emerging area and provide some direction for future research. A review framework and method are outlined, in order to clarify the type and source of literature to be reviewed and the focus of this review process. Then, findings are analysed and presented, and thematic areas identified and analysed. Gaps in research are then explored followed by a conclusion and recommendations. Initially, 80 relevant articles were identified from Scopus and Academic Search Complete since 2010. Through abstract review, articles, which did not adequately relate to change and leadership were removed. The final number of papers reviewed and thematically analysed in detail were 23.
This research confirms that there has been a steady output of peer-reviewed journal articles published that focused on both leadership and change in Higher Education. Through thematic analysis, several key themes emerged. These included an array of change drivers and the internal and external context associated with politics, culture and traditions and the developmental stage of the higher educational system. Staff utilisation, collaboration and development were additional themes identified that set the scene to determine effective leadership approaches and characteristics. The final theme identified was leadership recruitment and development. Many knowledge gaps from an instrumental, humanistic, critical, and philosophical perspective were identified. It is hoped that this literature review will aid further scholars in their research and develop new knowledge so that convergent views on this important topic will surface.

Published: April 2023

Abstract: This article is a response to the existence of new atheism in the midst of present day reality of religious pluralism. The response manifests itself in a review on Logos theology according to three early patristic thinkers: Justin Martyr (Logos spermatikos), Irenaeus of Lyons (Logos emphutos), and Clement of Alexandria (Logos protreptikos). Through the review, this article will imaginatively map out each of the early patristic thinkers’s response to new atheism. Then, this article will evaluate all these responses to formulate a basis that Christianity can use to face new atheism. Keywords: Logos emphutos, Logos protreptikos, Logos spermatikos, New atheism. Abstrak: Artikel ini merespons eksistensi ateisme baru di tengah realitas keagamaan plural masa kini. Respons tersebut mewujud pada tinjauan terhadap teologi Logos yang diusung oleh tiga tokoh patristik awal: Yustinus Martir (Logos spermatikos), Irenaeus dari Lyons (Logos emphutos), dan Klemen dari Alexandria (Logos protreptikos). Melalui tinjauan tersebut, artikel ini akan secara imajinatif memetakan respons tiap-tiap tokoh patristik awal terhadap ateisme baru. Kemudian, artikel ini akan mengevaluasi ketiga respons tersebut demi merumuskan sebuah dasar bagi kekristenan dalam menghadapi ateisme baru.

Intervensi asing pada krisis Venezuela: AS, Rusia, dan Uni Eropa
Authors: Raharsh Lumintosari Feyza 
Published: April 2023

Venezuela merupakan Negara dengan cadangan minyak terbesar di dunia dengan keuntungan hingga 95% dari ekspornya. Namun Venezuela masih mengalami krisis kemanusiaan dan ekonomi sejak tahun 2014,bahkan terjadi inflasi yang meroket, yang menyebabkan adanya intervensi asing di Venezuela. Pada dasarnya Intervensi dilarang dilakukan oleh suatu Negara karena suatu Negara atau pihak asing dilarang mencampuri urusan Negara lain terlebih lagi intervensi yang dilakukan telah menganggu kemerdekaan dan kedaulatan negara yang bersangkutan,namun jika ada Negara yang melakukan suatu tindak kekejaman terhadap warga negaranya bahkan mengabaikan hak asasi manusia maka suatu intervensi kemanusiaan secara umum dapat dibenarkan. Venezuela yang berada pada tekanan Internasional, terutama Amerika Serikat yang memberi tekanan terhadap Venezuela sehingga membuat Venezuela terisolasi dalam kawasan Amerika Latin maupun Internasional , di sisi lain pemerintah Rusia mengkritik Intervensi Amerika serikat pada Krisis Venezuela karena menurut mereka AS telah melanggar hukum Internasional, begitu juga Uni Eropa yang mengimbau penyelesaian krisis di serahkan kepada internal pemerintahan Venezuela saja tidak perlu ada campur tangan dari luar pemerintahan Venezuela.
Improving periodic uniformity of area-type LIPSS on Si wafer using a flat-top beam femtosecond NIR laser

Published: April 2023

Abstract
Fabrication of line- and area-type laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) induced by a flat-top beam provides improved periodic uniformity in structure compared to fabrication with a Gaussian beam. Improved periodic uniformity induces high reproducibility and high performance through signal uniformity. Especially, this characteristic makes LIPSS induced by flat-top beam can be applied in structural color, hydrophobicity control and surface-enhanced Raman scattering. To demonstrate the improved periodic uniformity, the periods of the LIPSSs induced by Gaussian and flat-top beams are analyzed. Period uniformity is evaluated by applying the fast Fourier transformation to atomic force microscopy data. Improved periodic uniformity is observed in the area-type LIPSS induced by a flat-top beam. This is because of the peak of line width induced by the Gaussian beam profile characteristic. Consequently, area-type LIPSSs induced by a flat-top beam exhibit improved periodic uniformity.

ДОСЛІДЖЕННЯ МЕТОДІВ ПРОГНОЗУВАННЯ ДИНАМІКИ КУРСУ КРИПТОВАЛЮТ
Authors: Авдєєв Олексій , Каук Віктор 
Published: April 2023

Криптовалюти стають все більш популярними в останні роки, залучаючи велику кількість інвесторів і трейдерів з усього світу. Ці цифрові активи децентралізовані, тобто вони не контролюються жодним центральним органом, що надає низку переваг перед традиційними фінансовими системами, включаючи більшу прозорість, швидший час обробки транзакцій і менші комісії. Однак надзвичайно непередбачуваний характер ринків криптовалюти створив значні проблеми для інвесторів і трейдерів. Ціни на криптовалюту можуть різко коливатися протягом короткого періоду часу, що ускладнює прогнозування майбутніх змін цін. Як наслідок, зростає потреба в точних і надійних методах прогнозування динаміки цін на криптовалюту. Найбільш вживаними алгоритмами прогнозування є алгоритми рекурентних нейронних мереж, що й будуть розглянуті у даній роботі.
ОСОБЕННОСТИ И АСПЕКТЫ ДИАГНОСТИКИ ДЕТЕЙ С ОТКРЫТЫМ ПРИКУСОМ
Authors: Абдуллаева Нилюфар , Ибрагимов Шерзод 
Published: April 2023

За последнее время в городе Самарканд реализовалось комплекс мероприятий направленной на усовершенствование , диагностики и лечение вертикальной аномалии, а именно открытого прикуса, и в данный момент многие ученые и практикующие врачи начали глубже изучать факторы приводящие к развитию данной аномалии. В клинической практике особое значения имеет этиологические факторы, эндогенные и экзогенные факторы а так же условия проживания данного пациента , учитывая возраст пациента. Мы провели профилактические мероприятия детям в возрасте от 6 до 15 у 37 пациентов с открытым прикусом.[1,2]Учитывая все аспекты данной аномалии мы ставим перед собой задачу диагностировать пациентов с открытым прикусом современными методами с учетом их возраста и типа аномалии. Открытый прикус рассматривается как самостоятельная форма зубочелюст- ных аномалий, так и может сочетаться с другими нарушениями в трансверзальном или сагиттальном направлении.[3]По литературным данным открытый прикус в 62% случаев встречается вместе с мезиальным соотношением зубных рядовОткрытый прикус - серьезная аномалия зубочелюстной системы. По результатам опроса и наблюдения Нигматова Р.Н., Шаамухамедова Ф.А., Нигматова И.М. (2017) среди детей в возрасте 3-6 лет открытый прикус составил 1,4%. По данным Л.П. Григорьева (1995), 1,12% у детей 7-16 лет. 2,7% в распределении аномалий зубочелюстной системы.[5,6].Однако, ряд исследователей утверждают, что к 9-10 годам частота встречаемости открытого прикуса снижается, что связано с устранением вредных привычек, способствующих развитию аномалии, а также с нормализацией функций дыхания и глотания. В более позднем подростковом возрасте может наблюдаться повторное увеличение распространенности открытого прикуса из-за позднего роста костей в области лицевого отдела черепа [4].
