El doceavo golpe de Estado militar en Tailandia, en el año 2014, tuvo como resultado la declaratoria de ley marcial y la suspensión de la Constitución de 2007 por parte del propio ejército, mismo que fue artífice de ésta. Con esto, el ejército tailandés pretendía iniciar un proceso de reformas políticas y lograr la salida de lo que denominaron un gobierno corrupto e inestable. En Tailandia el ejército posee la atribución de intervenir en asuntos políticos, declarar la ley marcial en caso de guerra o insurrección, asumir el poder por encima de las autoridades civiles, registrar a los ciudadanos en sus casas y vehículos, intervenir mensajes en cartas, prohibir reuniones, la libertad de movimiento y de prensa y expropiar bienes desde 1914.
Al amparo de esta ley se llevó a cabo este último golpe militar, bajo el mando del general Prayuth Chan-Ocha, en que se suspendió el mandato constitucional salvo algunas excepciones referentes a la monarquía, institución que ha seguido siendo fuerte a pesar de las turbulencias políticas.

ABSTRACT

Background
Pandrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) is associated with high rate of mortality in intensive care unit (ICU) and has been recognized as a difficult-to-treat infection worldwide. Polymyxin B or colistin-based combination therapies are frequently used worldwide though microbial eradication rate is not promising.

Aim
The aim of this study is to compare the clinical outcome of intravenous with aerosolized polymyxin B versus colistin in the treatment of pandrug-resistant K. pneumoniae VAP.

Methods
This retrospective cohort study was conducted on 222 mechanically ventilated patients admitted from May 11, 2019 to October 19, 2020. K. pneumoniae isolates were resistant to all available antibiotics, including polymyxins in culture sensitivity tests. As treatment, polymyxin B and colistin was administered in intravenous and aerosolized form concurrently twice daily in 106 patients and 116 patients in PMB and CLN group, respectively for 14 days. Survival rate, safety, and clinical outcomes were compared among the groups. The Cox proportional-hazard model was performed to calculate hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI).

Results
Patients in PMB group showed more microbial eradication than the patients CLN group [68.1% (n=116)/83% (n=106), respectively; P <0.05). The median day of intubation and ICU stay in PMB group was shorter than that in CLN group [10 (IQR: 9-12.25) vs. 14 (IQR: 11-19), P <0.05; 12 (IQR: 10-14) vs. 15 (IQR: 9-18.5), P=0.072, respectively] with reduced 60-day all-cause mortality rate [15% (n=106) vs. 21.55% (n=116)]. Polymyxin B improved survival compared to colistin (multivariate HR: 0.662; 95% CI=0.359-1.222, P=0.195).

Conclusions
Concurrent administration of intravenous and aerosolized polymyxin B in patients with pandrug-resistant K. pneumoniae-associated VAP revealed better microbial eradication, reduced the length of intubation and ICU stay, and improved survival rate compared to colistin.
La psicoeducación de la muerte en el escolar primario: ¿Realidad o utopía?
Authors: Ramos Idania Otero , Soarez Santo Carmen De Fatima 
Published: May 2023

El artículo presenta resultados de investigación orientada a caracterizar la psicoeducación de la muerte en la Escuela Primaria “Osvaldo Socarrás Martínez” de Santa Clara, Cuba. La muestra está conformada por los escolares que cursan el ciclo primario y que han sufrido pérdidas significativas en los dos últimos años, sus maestros, padres y/o tutores. En el trabajo se asume un enfoque integrativo de investigación, con un diseño en paralelo, donde se privilegian los momentos interpretativos. Los resultados demuestran las diferencias en el significado de la muerte por parte de los escolares del primer y segundo ciclo de enseñanza. Además se observa en los maestros la ausencia de un enfoque psicoeducativo conscientemente planificado, no existiendo orientaciones metodológicas en los planes y programas de estudio. Las alternativas didácticas y el acompañamiento del duelo surgen “por espontaneidad”, al carecer de recursos y de la preparación profesional requerida para ello, lo que indica la prioridad de reconceptualizar la visión psicoeducativa que se posee sobre la muerte en el nivel primario de educación.

Los resultados del estudio corroboraron un predominio de ansiedad media, seguido del nivel de ansiedad alta y una tendencia de estrategia de afrontamiento del estrés focalizado en el problema o afrontamiento racional que corresponden a las subescalas de focalizado en la solución del problema, reevaluación positiva y búsqueda de apoyo social.
Construyendo otra voz católica sobre el aborto: el caso de católicas por el derecho a decidir en el debate acerca de la despenalización del aborto en Argentina
Authors: Valdez Emiliano Martin 
Published: May 2023

El articulo presenta resultados de investigación orientado a indagar la acción política desarrollada por Católicas por el Derecho a Decidir/Argentina (C.D.D/Arg) en el debate por la despenalización del aborto en Argentina. A partir del análisis conjunto de 7 entrevistas a miembros del equipo de coordinación de C.D.D/Arg y la lectura sistemática de documentos oficiales de dicha organización, este trabajo describe y analiza el proceso de disidencia religiosa (Vaggione, 2007) mediante la cual esta organización construye un discurso católico alternativo sobre el aborto basado en la incorporación de diversas referencias simbólicas del catolicismo tales como la autonomía y la libertad de conciencia. En este trabajo se sostiene que dicho discurso funciona como referente de legitimación para las creencias y posiciones de muchos católicos que se han alejado de las normativas de la jerarquía católica sobre la moral sexual así como también de insumo para la discusión política sobre el aborto en Argentina.
Wall Object Design in Maze Game Using Cellular Automata Algorithm
Authors: Malem Furqan 
Published: May 2023

Games can be an excellent learning tool for kindergarten students considering that children are happy to play at that age. For this reason, this research tries to create a maze-type educational game with the theme "Environmental Cleanliness," which teaches children to clean up garbage and trains them in awareness of the importance of environmental cleanliness.
The maze game uses the Cellular Automata Algorithm for designing wall objects so that the difficulty level of the maze can be increased at each level. The maze will change if it meets certain conditions, creating a more exciting and fun educational game for children. This implemented algorithm aims to provide challenges, improve strategy skills, and train directional and spatial awareness by knowing the spaces and paths that must be passed, pointing their location in the maze game.
The result of this research is that all features in the game design developed have been successfully implemented and functioned properly. Especially ensuring the algorithm used to generate the maze wall can work according to the design.

Cardiovascular disease is one of the deadliest diseases in the world. This is evidenced by data released by WHO which shows around 18 million deaths. This disease causes the cessation of the heartbeat which is the main source of life for the human body.This disease is caused by various things including an unhealthy lifestyle. Examples are consuming cigarettes and alcohol. In addition, it is also caused by other factors, namely health problems such as high blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, depression, or anxiety. The cardiovascular disease tends to be difficult to cure, therefore a precise and accurate prediction is needed in diagnosing patients. One method of making predictions is using machine learning techniques. In machine learning, there are various methods that can be used, one of which is the decision tree-based method, namely random forest. Before the random forest is implemented to create a model, the data is pre-processed by normalizing and applying cross-validation with k-fold = 10. The prediction results with the random forest in this study provide an accuracy of 98%. This accuracy is higher when compared to previous studies with the same dataset, namely 96.75% using the ensemble method and 91.61% with logistic regression. On this basis, it proves that the random forest can be used to predict cardiovascular disease.
Key Words: cardiovascular disease, tree model, random forest, machine learning.

Published: May 2023

To reduce aerodynamic heat and drag, and thus improve the speed of hypersonic vehicles, opposing jet technology has become a research focus because of its excellent heat and drag reduction effect. In this paper, Navier–Stokes equations, the shear stress transport turbulent models, the Gupta chemical kinetics model, and the five-species air model are considered; and a numerical simulation program of hypersonic aerodynamic heat and drag with an opposing jet is developed and verified by existing experimental data. On this basis, the flight conditions of [Formula: see text], 14, and 15 at a 30 km flight altitude are simulated numerically; and the complex flowfield structure of the leading edge of a blunt body with or without the opposing jet is analyzed. It is found that the jet can push away the shock wave, playing a good role in reducing heat and drag. The influence of the pressure ratio, Mach number, and jet temperature on reducing heat and drag is investigated. The results indicate that, under the same conditions, increasing the pressure ratio, increasing the jet Mach number, and decreasing the inlet Mach number will be more helpful for reducing heat and drag; whereas increasing the jet temperature is not conducive to heat reduction and has little impact on aerodynamic drag.

Исследования проведены в Брянской области на серых лесных почвах в 2017–2020 годах. Целью исследований было совершенствование технологии возделывания люцерны изменчивой в одновидовых и гетерогенных посевах за счёт использования различных доз комплексного гранулированного фосфорно-калийно-борного удобрения «Борофоска» в качестве основного удобрения пролонгированного действия совместно с ежегодной азотной подкормкой. Методы исследований: полевые, лабораторные и статистические. В 2017 году был заложен полевой двухфакторный опыт: фактор А — фон минеральных удобрений, фактор В — травосмесь. За трёхлетний срок пользования сформированы высокоурожайные одновидовые травостои люцерны изменчивой с урожайностью зелёной массы 35–40 т/га и сухого вещества 9–10 т/га при применении «Борофоски» в дозах от 750 кг/га и более совместно с ежегодной подкормкой аммиачной селитрой в дозе 90 кг/га. Урожайность гетерогенных травостоев на основе люцерны изменчивой с фестулолиумом, тимофеевкой луговой и ежой сборной составила 30–38 т/га зелёной массы и 7,5–9,5 т/га сухого вещества. Показано, что однократное внесение «Борофоски» в дозах от 750 кг/га и более и ежегодная подкормка аммиачной селитрой обеспечили продуктивное долголетие люцерны в течение 3 лет использования. Разовое внесение «Борофоски» как основного удобрения и мелиоранта в дозах 750 кг/га и более в сочетании с ежегодной азотной подкормкой N30 следует рекомендовать в качестве эффективного агроприёма при создании многолетних агроценозов люцерны изменчивой для среднесрочного пользования на серых лесных почвах Брянской области.
This investigation took place in the Bryansk region on grey forest soil in 2017–2020. The aim was to optimize the cultivation technique of bastard alfalfa as monoculture and mixed with other grasses on various backgrounds of a complex granulated phosphorus-potassium-boron fertilizer (“Borofoska”) in combination with annual nitrogen application. Methods used: the field, lab and statistical ones. In 2017 two-factorial experiment started: factor A — various backgrounds of mineral fertilizers, factor B — grass mixture. For three years alfalfa monoculture provided 35–40 t ha-1 of green mass and 9–10 t ha-1 of dry matter (DM) under the prolonged effect of 750 kg ha-1 or more of “Borofoska” and 90 kg ha-1 of ammonium nitrate. The productivity of alfalfa mixed with festulolium, common timothy and cocksfoot amounted to 30–38 t ha-1 of green mass and 7.5–9.5 t DM ha-1. One-time application of 750 kg ha-1 or more of “Borofoska” together with annual fertilization with ammonium nitrate resulted in good performance of alfalfa for 3 years. One-time application of 750 kg ha-1 or more of “Borofoska” in combination with N30 was shown to be an effective technique for the cultivation of perennial stands of bastard alfalfa in the Bryansk region.
Change Resistance Management And The Transition To Distance Learning During COVID-19: Moderating Role Of Education Technology
Authors: Al-Hyari Hadeel Sa’ad 
Published: May 2023

Purpose: Current study aimed at examining the moderating role of education technology on the relationship between change resistance management (Efficient Managing, Participation, Communication, Organizational Culture, and Managerial Practices) and the transition to distance learning.

Theoretical Framework: It's important to remember that resistance is a natural reaction caused by Fear of the unknown and uncertainty about the goals of change and, in some cases, a lack of sufficient information about reform, and that it shouldn't be viewed as a bad thing in and of itself.

Design/Methodology/Approach: Quantitative methodology was adopted, and a questionnaire was distributed on a convenience sample of (391) lecturers of different tanks within private universities in Jordan. SPSS was employed in order to screen, process and analyze gathered primary data.

Findings: Results of study indicated that education technology moderated the relationship between change resistance management and the transition to distance learning that was attributed to managerial practices as the highest influential approach with B= .585 while organizational culture scored an influence but it was the lowest with B= 0.82.

Research , Practical & Social implications: As for the main hypothesis of study, results indicated that education technology manifested the transition to distance learning through the approach which helped in managing the transition through educational technology, as it constituted a comprehensive reference guides for education and provided basic information and framework for distance education that included many channels such as television, digital technology, online platforms and mobile phone.

Originality/ Value: The current study showed that most of the resistance during the transitional period of distance education due to the COVID 19 pandemic was due to a lack of knowledge, information, skills, and technological capabilities, as most of the resistance appeared after identifying the platforms they dealt with, the existing infrastructure, and weaknesses. How well university IT departments can handle the massive demand caused by this rapid and unanticipated transformation.
A Study on Impulsive Buying Behaviour in Online Shopping
Authors: Rani N Meena , S Catherine 
Published: May 2023

Purpose: The present study aims to provide a broad overview of impulsive buying through literature review, find stimuli that triggers Impulse buying during online shopping, analyze the influence of respondents’ demographic and psychographic factors on impulsive buying and to construct and validate regression model.

Theoretical framework: The study extensively reviewed available literature pertaining to various theories affecting consumer while purchasing goods online and offline. It largely conforms to the existing models of consumer behavior such as learning model (peer influence per se), psychoanalytical model (Eg: mood upliftment) and economic model (like seeking discounts and offers). It also embraces Maslow’s theory of need hierarchy (Ready to Eat products (RTE) were found to be bought most impulsively).

Design/methodology/approach: The study has been taken up in select locations of Bangalore City, India, which is a hub for different types of e-commerce players and large consumer base with diverse background. The present study used both primary and secondary data. A structured questionnaire was administered online as well as in person with target respondents in select locations of Bangalore following area sampling method. A total of 600 respondents were contacted and complete information was obtained from 171 respondents during 2021-22. Qualitative analysis has been done from the responses captured through open ended questions in the instrument.

Findings: Results show significant association between income and impulsive buying, different categories of products and tendency for impulsive buying, and Discount and offers are found to be most significant factors driving impulsive buying online along with tendency to buy online for mood upliftment and an urge to gratify the needs instantly. The model predicts impulsive buying with adjusted R2 value of .671 which is statistically significant.

Research, Practical & Social implications: The study leaves major implications for the marketers as well as the consumers, apart from enriching the existing body of knowledge. Discounts become imperative for the marketers to drive sales and revenues which is not going to be a sustainable phenomenon. Customers get overused to discounts and churn when the discounts cease to exist. It may even prompt the marketers to portray that they are offering discounts, which may be fake and illusive, and finally would deceive the consumers.

Originality/value: The model predicts impulsive buying with adjusted R2 value of .671 which is statistically significant.

Published: May 2023

Purpose: The aim of this study is to examine which factors give impact on BPD performance as Regional Development Bank that still relies on Local Government Fund.

Theoretical framework: Research on BPD performance so far without looking at special conditions where the bank's performance is experiencing very good performance and without mentioning the dependence of BPD on local government funds, so this research was conducted

Design/methodology/approach: The study collects data from 25 Indonesian Regional Development Banks (BPD) in period 2013-2017. Data analysis technique in this research uses multilinear regression.

Findings: The results of this research show that Growth of Third Party Fund (GTPF) has no effect on ROA. CAR and LDR have a positive and significant effect on ROA. Meanwhile, NPL and QAP have a negative and significant effect on ROA.

Research, Practical & Social implications: The implication of this study indicates that management of bank needs to conduct a better strategy to maximize the profit from third party funds. Also, local government should consider other private bank as an alternative to deposit their fund. So that, Regional Government-owned bank may compete to other banks and it becomes independent.

Originality/value: This study highlights the performance of BPD banks specifically in periods where the bank's performance is still very dependent on local government funds.
