This can be done through education or training to all staff in organizations to enlighten them on the need for effective inventory management practices for their organization’s performance.

성인 발달장애인의 평생교육 참여에 영향을 미치는 요인에 관한 분석

Purpose: This study utilized the raw data from the 2020 Disability Status Survey conducted by the Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs to analyze the factors affecting the participation of adults with developmental disabilities in lifelong education. Methods: These factors were categorized into demographic, health, psychological, and social activity aspects. A logistic regression analysis was conducted with lifelong education participation as a dependent variable and the influencing factors as independent variables. Results: The findings are as follows. First, in the health aspect, higher subjective health status and lower need for assistance in daily life were associated with increased participation in lifelong education. Second, in the social activity aspect, previous experience in lifelong education, leisure activities, and use of welfare centers were found to enhance participation. Third, psychological factors did not significantly influence the participation of adults with developmental disabilities in lifelong education. Conclusions: Based on these results this study proposes practical and policy measures to enhance lifelong education participation among adults with developmental disabilities. These include developing health-related programs, promoting autonomous living in daily life, encouraging participation in leisure activities rather than formal education, expanding lifelong education institutions beyond welfare centers, and creating more opportunities for participation in lifelong education.

Risk Factors of Convulsions in Children With Rotavirus Gastroenteritis and Construction of a Nomogram Prediction Model.

This study aims to investigate and analyze the risk factors of convulsions in children with rotavirus gastroenteritis and to construct a nomogram prediction model. A retrospective analysis was performed on 940 cases of pediatric patients with rotavirus gastroenteritis treated in our hospital from December 2017 to December 2022. Based on whether convulsions occurred during hospitalization, patients were divided into the convulsion group (n = 135) and the convulsion-free group (n = 805). Clinical information of patients in both groups was collected, logistic regression analysis was carried out to analyze the convulsion risk factors pertaining to children with rotavirus gastroenteritis, and a nomogram prediction model was constructed. The univariate analysis revealed that fever, frequency of diarrhea, white blood cell count, blood calcium level, blood glucose level, CO 2 CP, creatine kinase myocardial band (CK-MB), and blood pH value were all factors that display statistically significant differences at the level of P = 0.05. Then, logistic regression analysis was carried out, taking the occurrence of such convulsions as the dependent variable and the aforementioned factors as independent variables. The results show that fever, frequency of diarrhea, blood calcium, CO 2 CP, and CK-MB were the independent risk factors ( P < 0.05), whereas the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (area under the curve) of the constructed nomogram prediction model based on these factors was 0.842 (95% confidence interval, 0.821-0.914). Frequency of diarrhea, blood calcium, CO 2 CP, and CK-MB are independent risk factors for the occurrence of convulsions in children with rotavirus gastroenteritis. The nomogram prediction model constructed based on these risk factors provides guidance and value in effectively preventing and controlling convulsions in children with rotavirus gastroenteritis.

Analysis of the Impact of Insecurity on Youth Unemployment (1990-2020)

Using the ordinary least square estimation technique (OLS), this research examines the impact of insecurity on youth unemployment in Nigeria between 1990 and 2020. The study focuses on the relationship between the dependent variable, unemployment (UNE), and two independent variables, the National Terrorism Index (NTI) and Crime Rate (CR). The results reveal that NTI has a positive and statistically significant effect on UNE. Specifically, a unit increase in NTI leads to a 0.000827 rise in unemployment. Additionally, Nigerian CR demonstrates a significant and positive influence on UNE, with an increase in CR resulting in a 0.005653 increase in unemployment. Given that heightened insecurity directly contributes to unemployment, the study proposes several policy recommendations. Firstly, the government should consider reducing interest rates in commercial banks to enhance the availability of loans for small business owners, enabling them to hire more employees. Furthermore, addressing corruption in both public and private sectors, combating kidnappings, and establishing additional skill acquisition centers are crucial measures to tackle the issue of insecurity and promote employment opportunities.

스튜어드십 코드와 일본기업의 연구개발투자

Purpose: This paper explores the influence of both domestic and international institutional investors, recognized as emerging outside blockholders in Japanese firms, on R&amp;D investment. The study aims to understand how these investors impact R&amp;D spending, a crucial factor for sustainable growth, particularly in the context of the implementation of the Stewardship Code.&#x0D; Research design, data, and methodology: The analysis employed panel analysis on 105 manufacturing companies listed on Nikkei225 from 2014 to 2020. We used the intensity of R&amp;D as the dependent variable, with institutional investors holding more than 3% of each company’s shares as the independent variable. By classifying institutional investors, we compared the results between domestic and foreign institutional investors.&#x0D; Results: The analysis revealed that outside blockholders had a significantly positive effect on R&amp;D. However, when institutions were classified, different results emerged. While domestic institutional investors had a significant positive impact on R&amp;D, foreign institutional investors did not yield statistically significant results. Additionally, the financial institution variable, acting as the control variable and related to insider investors, consistently demonstrated a significantly negative effect across all models.&#x0D; Implications: Despite foreign institutional investors dominating the Japanese stock market, it was found that domestic institutional investors have emerged as significant outside blockholders in each firm. Traditionally criticized as passive investors, domestic institutional investors are shown to influence and promote R&amp;D for long-term growth, in line with the Japanese stewardship code. While foreign investors are often associated with potential decreases in R&amp;D for short-term gains such as ROE and dividends, no significant evidence was found. Moreover, with increasing stake ratios, foreign investors have the potential to positively impact Japanese firms in the future.

The Role of New Era Exporters on the Financial Growth in India

The present study aims to investigate the relationships among India's financial development, international trade, and the evolution of economic growth. The study's primary focal areas have been the real GDP, which has replaced economic growth, export and import services, international commerce, gross capital creation, and exchange rate as independent variables. More frequent traders are often found to have excellent advancement rates and to have a positive influence on the growth of the financial industry and the economy. The research will also examine if there is a sustained correlation between various macroeconomic factors in India from 2000 to 2018, such as trade growth, financial development, and other macroeconomic variables. Regarding the previous sentence, the study employed the Johansen co-integration approach, KPSS, ADF, and PP to ascertain if financial development, economic growth, and trade variables continue to be associated over an extended period of time. These techniques were also applied to investigate the long-term relationships between particular variables. The direction of causation between variables can be ascertained using the Granger causality test. All of the variables have been shown to be non-stationar, and the study demonstrates that there is a long-term correlation between financial development, economic growth, and international trade. The study's conclusions show the interdependence of trade, financial development, and economic development; yet, while macroeconomic policy is stable, negative macroeconomic variables, such increasing inflation, might impede economic progress.

Is the Existing Hydropower Development Policy, 2001 Investment Friendly?

Nepal is endowed with an abundance of hydro resources. Its gross hydropower potential is estimated to be 83,290 MW technically. Out of which, 42,133 MW is ascertained as economically exploitable. However, in the span of 112 years, only around 2,900 MW is harnessed. It is obvious that the development of hydropower is a public policy-related matter. Previous studies exhibit several complications in hydropower development policy, 2001 such as private sector participation in electricity trade, lack of one window system, term of project, hedging mechanisms, foreign direct investment, and so forth. In this regard, this study aims to investigate its efficiency and effectiveness through quantitative research design. Herein, for the sake of empirical research three independent variables namely, Financial Incentives Sufficiency (FIS), Return on Investment Sufficiency (RoIS), and Market Access Sufficiency (MAS), and one dependent variable namely, Investment Friendliness (IF) was dealt. To collect the opinion of respondents a set of questionnaires comprising 11 questions was developed and approached to 108 informants from 25 diverse sectors of the hydro-industry. Herein, deductive reasoning was persuaded. For analyzing data, statistical tools such as arithmetic mean, standard deviation, factor analysis, Chi-Square tests, Mann Whitney "U" test, and Kruskal-Wallis "H" test were computed. Based on empirical analysis this study concludes that the hydropower development policy, of 2001 is investment-friendly. However, the study manifested a number of rooms that were to be addressed as changing the expectations of investors. On this ground, the findings of this study will be applicable with a view to formulating a more investment-friendly hydropower policy in the future.

Effect of Brisk Walking Exercise on Blood Sugar Levels in Prolanis Members at Community Health Center

Many diabetes mellitus sufferers still lack regular physical activity. Physical activity such as brisk walking can be a form of exercise that effectively controls blood sugar levels. This study aims to determine the effect of brisk walking on random blood sugar levels in Prolanis in the Kesamben Community Health Center working area, Jombang Regency. The research design uses a pre-experiment with a one-group pre-post-test design approach. The population of Prolanis members was 35 respondents, and the sample size was 20 respondents taken using non-probability purposive sampling. The independent variable is brisk walking, the dependent variable is random blood sugar levels, data collection uses the GlucoDR blood sugar checking tool, and the statistical test used is the Wilcoxon Test analysis. The research results showed that of the 20 respondents, the majority, namely 15 (75%), were in the high category before being given the fast walking treatment. On the other hand, most respondents were in the moderate category after fast walking exercise, namely 15 respondents (75%). The results of the Wilcoxon statistical test show p-value = 0.002 where p-value &lt; α (0.05). It can be concluded that brisk walking affects random blood sugar levels. Brisk walking exercise affects changes in random blood sugar levels in Prolanis in the Kesamben Community Health Center working area, Jombang Regency. Brisk walking is recommended as a type II diabetes management therapy to control blood sugar levels because of the low side effects, and it has been proven to be effective.

Latent class of multidimensional dependency in community-dwelling older adults: evidence from the longitudinal ageing study in India

BackgroundExisting studies have used ADL and IADL separately as measures of dependency. However, dependency is a heterogeneous and complex issue, and the dependency of each older adult is a synergistic combination of several functional activities. In this study, we assess the pattern of multidimensional dependency of older adults based on ADL, IADL, visual impairment, difficulty in climbing a flight of stairs, pushing or pulling objects, depressive symptoms, cognitive impairment, marital status, and economic distress. It is important to classify the dependency status of older adults because this will be key to evaluating the needs for care, and plan services that effectively cater for the needs of the older adults. The classification into different latent classes means that older adults within each class have the same needs of dependency but different needs between the latent classes. Our objective is to identify patterns of multidimensional dependency in older adults.MethodsData from the Longitudinal Ageing Study in India (LASI) Wave-1, was used, the analytical sample consisted of 32,827 individuals of age 45 years and above. LCA was used to identify the multidimensional dependency class. LCA was conducted in R statistical package, using the poLCA package. The optimal number of classes was selected based on the comparison of model fit statistics. Independent variables were incorporated to explore the association between these variables and the latent class.ResultsBased on nine indicator variables, three latent classes were identified: “Active Older adults”, “Moderately independent” and “Psychological and physically impaired”. The “Active older adults” profile is comprised of older adults who have a very low probability of needing help for any ADL, IADL and other activities. The “Moderately independent” class were characterized as those older adults who were visually impaired but less likely to need help for IADL activities. The “Psychological and physically impaired”, the smallest of all classes, comprised of older adults with poor dependency status.ConclusionsIn this study, we found that the dependency status of older adults which is based on several domains of functional activity has been classified into three distinct classes. These three classes have distinct physical, psychological, economic, and socio-demographic characteristics in terms of activities in which help is required.

Invisible Publications: A Study of Academic Productivity in the Web of Science Database

The present study aims to outline the profile of uncited or rarely cited articles indexed in the Web of Science database between 2017 and 2021. We used stratified random sampling of 14,425 journals to extract our study sample of 373 journals. The dependent variable was defined as the number of citations, with independent variables being the JCR index, maturity, quartile, language of publication, and whether the research was funded. Descriptive statistics were used to characterize the sample according to field of research and variable. A negative binomial regression method was used to estimate which variables influence the number of citations received by articles in the sample. We found that of the 256,524 articles that make up the research corpus, 39,469 (15.39%) received no citations and 91,963 articles (35.85%) received up to four citations. The variables that positively influenced estimates of the number of citations were maturity (0.481), JCR index (0.159), and funding (0.020), while quartile (-0.170) and language (-1.032) had a negative influence on number of citations. We conclude that the pressures of academic productivism create a vicious cycle in which studies are referenced based on their ranking in the struggle for privileged editorial space, with articles in higher quartile journals being more prone to citation.

Phytochemicals, Health-Promoting Effects, and Enzyme Inhibition Traits of Phlomis stewartii Extracts.

Phlomis stewartii is a wild, perennial woody plant used for diverse therapeutic targets. The present work evaluated the influence of independent variables such as extraction time, solvent concentration, and speed in the range of (100 mL, 150 mL, and 200 mL), (2 h, 5 h, and 8 h), and (100 rpm, 150 rpm, and 200 rpm), respectively, on extraction yields, phytochemical components, total phenolic contents (TPC), and total flavonoid contents (TFC) of P. stewartii extract. In the present work, response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize the extraction yield. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was performed to detect the bioactive constituents of the extracts. The potent extracts were analyzed to study α-amylase and α-glucosidase inhibitory activities. Under the optimized conditions of solvent concentration (200 mL), extraction time (8 h), and speed (150 rpm), the whole plant methanol extract (WPME) showed a maximum extraction yield of 13.5%, while the leaves methanol extract (LME) showed a maximum TPC of 19.5 ± 44 mg of gallic acid equivalent (GAE) per gram of extract and a maximum TFC of 4.78 ± 0.34 mg of quercetin equivalent (QE) per gram of extract. HPLC analysis showed the presence of p-coumaric, gallic acid, quercetin, salicylic acid, sinapic acid, and vanillic acid. LME showed the highest α-amylase inhibitory activity (IC50 = 46.86 ± 0.21 µg/mL) and α-glucosidase inhibitory activity (IC50 value of 45.81 ± 0.17 µg/mL). Therefore, in conclusion, LME could be considered to fix the α-amylase and α-glucosidase-mediated disorders in the human body to develop herbal phytomedicine.

The role of sociodemographic, psychosocial, and behavioral factors in the use of preventive healthcare services in children and adolescents: results of the KiGGS Wave 2 study

BackgroundIn Germany, various preventive services are offered to children and adolescents. These include regular standardized examinations (so called U/J examinations) and several vaccinations. Although strongly recommended, most of them are not mandatory. Our aim is to identify factors associated with the use of U/J examinations and vaccination against diphtheria, hepatitis B, Hib, pertussis, polio, and tetanus. While previous research has focused on sociodemographic factors, we also include socioeconomic, behavioral, and psychosocial factors.MethodsWe analyzed cross-sectional data from 15,023 participants (aged 0–17 years) of the nationwide representative KiGGS Wave 2 Survey. Participation in U/J examinations was assessed using a questionnaire, filled out by participants and/or their parents. Information on vaccination status was drawn from the participants’ vaccination booklets. To identify relevant determinants for the use of preventive examinations and vaccinations, unadjusted and adjusted logistic regression models were employed with up to 16 different independent variables.ResultsVarious independent variables showed an association with the use of preventive services. Higher socioeconomic status, absence of migration background, and lower household size were associated with significantly higher utilization of U examinations. Parents’ marital status, area of residence, behavioral and psychosocial factors yielded insignificant results for most U/J examinations. Higher vaccination rates were found for children with no migration background, with residence in eastern Germany, lower household size, and with married parents.ConclusionThis study attempted to depict the influence of sociodemographic, psychosocial, and behavioral factors on the use of several preventive services. Our results indicate that predominantly sociodemographic variables influence the use of preventive services. Further efforts should be made to investigate the interplay of different determinants of healthcare use in children and adolescents.

Green Extraction of Oleoresin from Pink Pepper Fruits: Effect of Experimental Conditions and Characterization

This work evaluated the green extraction of oleoresin from pink pepper fruits (ORPPF) using ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) and ethanol as a solvent. The effects of temperature, ultrasound power intensity, sample to solvent ratio and time on the global extraction yield (YGE) and phenolic compounds yield (YPC) were evaluated. The oleoresin samples were characterized and its antimicrobial activity determined, and the obtained results were compared to conventional extraction in Soxhlet. From the results it was found that the application of the highest levels of the independent variables favored the extraction process. The maximum values of YGE and YPC were 28.60 wt% and 6.37 mg GAE per g fruit, respectively, obtained at 60 °C, 100% of ultrasound power (165 W), 1:20 g mL−1 (sample:solvent) and 45 min. Under maximized conditions, the ORPPF obtained by UAE showed a content of phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity inferior to soxhlet–ethanol extraction. However, the time and solvent consumption were reduced. Oleic and linoleic acids predominated in the fatty acid composition of ORPPF, in addition to sesquiterpenes and gallic and syringic acids. The ORPPF presented weak antibacterial activity, with minimum inhibitory concentration ranging from 31.25 to 125 mg mL−1.

Statistical optimization of biohydrogen fermentation from a perspective of butyrate production

Optimization of additives was achieved for hydrogen and butyric acid production modelled through a three-level Box-Behnken Design of the response surface methodology. Seventeen runs were designed with variables of sodium chloride (0.1–5 g/L), sodium thiosulphate (0–200 mg/L) and minerals (Zinc, iron, cupper and nickel (0–0.8 mM). The model fit to a cubic model with a high R2 of 96% and P value of 0.03. Some of the interactive variables have significant effect on butyrate production. The butyrate concentrations were close to the predicted ones. The model showed that higher butyric acid concentrations were observed with low sodium chloride and high sodium thiosulphate and minerals concentrations. Butyrate/Acetate ratios (BA/A), hydrogen production yield and rates increased with mean values of the independent variables. A cumulative hydrogen formation of 155 mL, yield of 2.6 mmol H2/mmol lactose, and rate of 3.6 mL/g/h was observed with the highest BA/AA ratio obtained from experiments.

Analysis of ultrasound images features and diagnostic model establishment of alveolar soft part sarcoma and intramuscular capillary-type hemangiomas

Objective: The ultrasonography features of alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) and intramuscular capillary-type hemangiomas (ICTH) were analyzed, and the diagnostic model of ASPS was established. Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out. The clinical data of 52 patients [28 males and 24 females, aged (20.7±15.1) years] with pathologically confirmed ASPS and ICTH admitted to People's Hospital of Henan Province from January 2005 to February 2023 were included in the study. According to pathological types, the patients were divided into ASPS group and ICTH group. Clinical data of patients were retrospectively collected, and meaningful indicators in the univariate analysis were included in the regression analysis for screening. After comprehensive consideration of clinical significance and statistical significance, eligible indicators were selected for inclusion in the regression analysis. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to screen the factors that distinguished the pathological types of ASPS and ICTH, and the diagnostic model was established. The area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the diagnostic effectiveness of the diagnostic model in distinguishing ASPS from ICTH. Results: There were 20 patients in ASPS group, 10 males and 10 females, aged (26.9±13.5) years, and 32 patients in ICTH group, 18 males and 14 females, aged (16.8±15.0) years. The age difference between the ASPS group and the ICTH group was statistically significant (P<0.05), and there were statistically significant differences in the ultrasound imaging features of "clear boundary" "peripheral lobe" "thin blood vessels inside the lesion are straight and out of shape" "intra-lesion liquification" "peripheral thick blood vessels" and "peripheral muscle fiber disruption" between the two groups (all P<0.001).Variables with clinical and statistical significance were selected as independent variables. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that peripheral muscle fiber interruption (OR=97.358, 95%CI:6.833-1 387.249) and internal thin blood vessels were flat and out of shape (OR=0.052, 95%CI:0.003-0.921) was the correlation factor to distinguish the pathological types of ASPS and ICTH. Two ultrasonic image features of "peripheral muscle fiber interruption" and "internal thin blood vessels are straight and out of shape" were used to establish the diagnostic model. The sensitivity of "peripheral muscle fiber interruption" diagnostic model was 81.3%, and the specificity was 95.0%. The AUC was 0.811(95%CI: 0.761-0.954). The sensitivity, specificity and AUC of the diagnosis model of "internal thin vessels with flat misshape" were 90.0%, 96.9% and 0.934(95%CI: 0.830-0.984). The sensitivity, specificity and AUC of the combined diagnosis model of "peripheral muscle fiber interruption" and "internal thin blood vessel straight out of shape" were 96.9%, 90.0% and 0.974(95%CI:0.877-0.999). Conclusion: Ultrasonography can be used to distinguish ASPS from ICTH, and the combined diagnostic model based on the two ultrasonic imaging features of "peripheral muscle fiber interruption" and "internal thin blood vessel straight out of shape" can further improve the diagnostic efficiency.
