ВЛИЯНИЕ ИННОВАЦИОННОЙ ИНФРАСТРУКТУРЫ НА РАЗВИТИЕ ПРЕДПРИНИМАТЕЛЬСТВА В РЫНОЧНОЙ ЭКОНОМИКЕ: РАЗВИТИЕ И ПЕРСПЕКТИВЫ

The article examines how innovation infrastructure influences the growth of entrepreneurship within the market economy. It is shown that the majority of entrepreneurial enterprises that adapted to the strict and complex conditions of the market economy were innovative enterprises that conducted marketing research and created internal functional groups or departments that prioritized logistic activity. It is noted that all these mechanisms of action cannot be enough to protect and maintain the competitiveness of enterprises for a long time under the circumstances of a market economy. It is shown that large industrial firms should give more preference to innovative activities in order to maintain their positions in the market for the long term, periodically increase their market share and shape their competitive strategic perspectives. It has been noted that for the successful execution of innovative projects in enterprises focused on innovation, it is essential to develop a robust innovation infrastructure. This infrastructure should ensure stable relationships and reliable system performance overall. At the same time, the article lists the main tasks of innovation infrastructures in large innovative entrepreneurial entities. At the end, necessary recommendations are given to eliminate the current deficiency.

Monitoring the sleep health of adults: a scoping review of routine national surveillance systems.

The aims of this review were to identify existing national surveillance systems monitoring one or more domains of sleep health in adults, and to describe the specific sleep health indicators used. We systematically searched the gray and peer-reviewed literature for routinely conducted cross-sectional and longitudinal nationally representative health surveys that included the assessment of at least one domain of sleep health. The methodology involved: (1) targeted searches of the websites of national and international health agencies and statistics departments for 199 countries, (2) country-specific customized internet searches, and (3) country-specific electronic database searches of PubMed. A total of 19762 records were identified from both the gray and peer-reviewed literature. Sleep health surveillance at the national level was conducted by 51 countries (25.6%) across 69 national health surveys. Sleep quality (96.1% of countries that surveilled sleep) was the most frequently assessed followed by sleep duration (27.5%), sleep medication use (25.5%), sleep disorders (17.6%), daytime alertness (15.7%), sleep satisfaction (15.7%), and sleep timing (7.8%). Additionally, 34.8% of the surveys utilized multiple sleep health indicators. This study identified three significant gaps in the coverage of sleep health within national surveillance systems. Limited population sleep data in low- and middle-income countries, inconsistent use of sleep-related items in surveys and questionnaires, and substantial variability in the definitions of sleep health indicators. Advocacy for the inclusion of sleep health within national surveillance systems may be warranted given the important role sleep plays in public health.

Safe nanomaterials: from their use, application, and disposal to regulations.

Nanomaterials are structures with a wide range of applications in the medical, pharmaceutical, food, textile, and electronic industries, reaching more customers worldwide. As a relatively new technological field, the information about the associated risk of nanomaterials in environmental and human health must be addressed and consolidated to develop accurate legislations, frameworks, and guidelines to standardise their use in any field. This review aims to display and context the global applications of nanomaterials, their final disposal, as well as the perspective of the current efforts formulated by various countries (including Mexico and Latin American countries), international official departments and organisations directed to implement regulations on nanomaterials, nanotechnology, and nanoscience matters. In addition, the compiled information includes the tools, initiatives, and strategies to develop regulatory frameworks, such as life cycle assessments, risk assessments, technical tools, and biological models to evaluate their effects on living organisms. Finally, the authors point out the importance of implementing global regulations to promote nanotechnological research according to a precautionary principle focused on an environmental and health protection approach to ensure the use and application of nanotechnologies safely, and responsibly.

Prevalence of COVID-19 antibodies in employees of St. Jacob Hospital in Bardejov.

The COVID-19 disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus belongs to the group of highly infectious diseases with increased mortality and morbidity in the population. Finding the presence of antibodies plays an important role while finding the number of individuals who overcame the disease or were vaccinated. A total of 250 employees of St. Jacob Hospital with Polyclinic, Bardejov, participated in our study, the blood samples were drawn from the index finger and processed with the help of the rapid Ag test for the detection of antibodies and venous blood using the ELISA method. The health workers (doctors, nurses, medical laboratory technicians, laboratory diagnosticians) tested during September and October 2022 participated in our study. Our experimental study shows the presence of IgG antibodies in 215 (86%) of employees, who get them from overcoming the COVID-19 disease or getting vaccinated. In 17 (6.8%) of employees were detected IgG and IgM antibodies. The biggest number of IgG antibodies was found in 36 (78%) employees of the Surgical Department, 28 (84%) employees of Rehabilitation Department and 25 (89%) employees of the Internal Department, when compared with the Department of Laboratory Medicine 9 (30%) employees and Radiology Department 4 (44%) employees. Multiple prevalence of COVID-19 disease were found in employees of the internal, surgical and rehabilitation departments in whom we detected a higher presence of IgG antibodies. In department of laboratory medicine workers were proven lower levels of IgG antibodies, mainly for the limited contact with the positive covid patients and working with only their biological material, compared to the first-line employees exposed to direct contact with the patients.

The article considers Stanchev’s ties with the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, of which he was elected a foreign member in 2013, and his service as research director of the Marin Drinov Center for Bulgarian and Balkan Studies at V. N. Karazin Kharkiv National University and editor-in-chief of “The Drinov Collection,” which publishes materials of the international Drinov Readings held recurrently at Kharkiv National University. For his academic work, Stanchev has received the honorary award “For Services to the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences”, as well as the Drinov Gold Medal and Ribbon. Stanchev’s achievements in other areas, particularly government and diplomacy, are also discussed. Stanchev was elected deputy of the Kharkiv City Council and chaired the international department of the City Executive Committee, which was created on his initiative. In this position, he contributed to the development of Kharkiv’s international relations and helped attract foreign investment to the region. The article further touches on Stanchev’s service as first secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and head of the Department of Balkan Countries. Stanchev made a significant contribution to Ukrainian-Bulgarian relations as a temporary chargé d’affaires of Ukraine’s embassy in Bulgaria and political adviser, for which he was awarded the Golden Laurel Branch of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Bulgaria. In conclusion, the author expresses hope that Professor Stanchev will continue pursuing shared academic projects with the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences.

Sustainable Compliance Programs in Complex Organizations

I identify and test the empirical implications of complexity theory to investigate the effectiveness of the firm’s risk management program in monitoring compliance program activity. I provide a direct link between the quality of Business Regulatory Compliance Unit (which executes and oversees the compliance program implementation) and the overall risk management quality of the firm. I use a multi-method design, incorporating survey questionnaires and econometric multivariate analysis of a sample of European firms. I find a relationship between the risk management exposure of European firms and the quality of their internal control department. I also find a strong relationship between earnings at risk for UK firms and asset-liability at risk for financial firms, but only a weak relationship between cash flow at risk and internal audit quality for European firms. The quality of internal compliance business units is strongly positively related to corporate performance over time.

CLINICAL SYMPTOMS CHANGES IN POST-COVID-19 MILD AND MODERATE PATIENTS AT NATIONAL HOSPITAL FOR TROPICAL DISEASE

Patients recovering from SARS-CoV-2 infection may still have persistent symptoms. There is a need forstudies on many different groups to have an overview of the clinical manifestations after recovery.Objectives: Describe the clinical symptoms persist in patients and compare the difference in those symptomsat 3 and 6 months after recovery in patients with mild and morderate COVID-19 infection at Department ofInternal Medicine, National Hospital for Tropical Diseases from October 2021 to October 2022.Methods: Descriptive prospective study on 166 patients with SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR positive, with mildand moderate severity, and met the criteria to be cured for discharge according to the Vietnam Ministry ofHealth's COVID-19 Diagnosis and Treatment Guidelines.Results: Common clinical manifestations at 3 month post infection were: cough (50%), fatigue (31.9%),sore throat (29.7%); 6 months post infection were: hair loss (9%), cough (6.6%), muscle and joint pain(1.8%).

Global Distribution of Clinical Trials on Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cells in the Pediatric Population: The Economic Impact on Clinical Trials Development

Keywords: Chimeric Antigen Receptor T cell, Pharmacoeconomic, Pediatric, Clinical Trials With the success of Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy in the pediatric population, new clinical trials have surged worldwide. To date, no previous study has analyzed the effect of socioeconomic factors on the development of clinical trials for CAR T-cells in the pediatric population. In recent years new countries and emerging economies have contributed significantly to the development of CAR T-cell clinical trials. A better understanding of the socioeconomic factors that influenced these trends will facilitate the future development of this cellular therapy field. To assess the impact of socioeconomic factors related to the development of clinical trials on CAR T-cell therapies in the pediatric population, we analyzed data entries from clinical trials registered to the Clinicaltrials.gov database. To query the information, we used the following keywords “(leukemia OR cancer OR lymphoma OR malignancies OR tumor OR solid tumor) AND (CAR OR chimeric antigen receptor OR CAR T-cell OR adoptive immunotherapy OR immune effector OR cellular therapy) AND (Child)”. In addition, we used different filters that allowed the selection of studies that focused on patients 18 years of age and younger. Data corresponding to entries with a data cut-off of July-2023 were included. In addition, we use the World Bank country's macroeconomic database (January 1 st, 2009 to December 31 st, 2022). We found 4,297 results in the Clinicaltrials.gov platform; we excluded 3,978 clinical trials that did not involve the pediatric population (≤18 years) or CAR T-cell intervention. There were 319 clinical trials included, sponsored in 19 countries, as shown in Figure A. Of those studies, 207 (64.9%) were conducted in China, 74 (23.2%) in the U.S., and 21 (6.5%) in Europe. Not surprisingly, the number of clinical trials is strictly proportional to each country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and Research and Development (R&D) expenditure, as shown in Figure B. Pearsons' coefficient between GDP and the number of trials registered per country is 0.8 (p-value < 0.001); similarly, Pearsons's coefficient between R&D expenditure and the number of problems reported per country is 0.64 (p-value < 0.004). The United States and China are developing 88% of the Clinical trials, and 96% of the clinical trials occur in countries ranked in the top 10 highest GDP. Our database analysis shows a notable disparity in the countries leading cutting-edge research in CAR T-cell therapy for pediatric oncology. The primary locations for these clinical studies are countries ranked in the top 10 in terms of GDP, with China and the USA being the main contributors. Access to clinical trials plays a crucial role in improving cancer patients' outcomes, and this disparity in the development of cellular therapies is likely to impact children from middle and low-GDP countries significantly. Urgent strategies are required to address this issue and ensure more equitable access to advanced technologies and clinical trials in cellular therapy for pediatric cancers. These strategies should become a high priority for national and international health departments and organizations in the coming years. By promoting more comprehensive clinical trial access and collaboration, we can work towards reducing these disparities and providing better treatment options for all children facing pediatric cancer.

CCCР – Колумбия: межпартийное измерение отношений

The author analyzes the history of the development and evo-lution of inter-party relations between the CPSU and the Co-lombian Communist Party in the post-Comintern period. Par-ticular attention is paid to the role of the International De-partment of the CPSU Central Committee in conducting the foreign policy of the USSR in Latin America. The author con-cludes that inter-party relations between the CPS and the CPC were built primarily around global issues on the agenda of the world communist movement, with the issues of Soviet-Chinese and Soviet-Chinese-Cuban rivalry and the topic of armed struggle in the Latin American region especially high-lighted.

The role of knowledge boundary resources for platform ecosystems – insights and design implications from SAP's Business Technology Platform

Platform ecosystems shift the locus of innovation from internal departments to third‐party developers, leading to knowledge boundaries between the platform owner and these external developers. Whereas traditional knowledge management approaches focus on intra‐organizational knowledge sharing, platform owners have to adopt an inter‐organizational approach to integrate knowledge across firm boundaries. Platform owners thus rely on knowledge boundary resources such as technical documentation, information portals, training materials, sample code, blogs, and online communities to overcome knowledge boundaries in their ecosystems. Existing research has identified different types of knowledge boundaries and knowledge boundary resources, but further research is needed to clarify how they influence third‐party application development. Against this background, we study how third‐party developers integrate knowledge boundary resources into their development practices. To derive an in‐depth understanding of the phenomenon, we used cognitive fit theory and conducted a single case study of SAP's Business Technology Platform. Based on 23 interviews, we developed a process model and distilled two primary purposes why third‐party developers use knowledge boundary resources: learning and problem‐solving. Based on these purposes, we explain the emergence of a knowledge boundary resource‐purpose fit that shapes the selection, evaluation, and usage of knowledge boundary resources. We then draw upon various knowledge boundary resource characteristics to condense four cases with a particularly favorable knowledge boundary resource‐purpose fit. Based on our results, we derive five propositions to help platform owners design effective knowledge boundary resources.

To survey on the components of metabolic syndrome and determine the serum ferritin levels in patients with metabolic syndrome

Background: Metabolic syndrome is one of the most common public health concerns in the 21st century. Several studies in the world have shown a link between elevated serum ferritin and metabolic syndrome as well as the risk of metabolic syndrome, the study provides a number of conclusions argues that ferritin may be considered as an early predictor of metabolic syndrome. For that reason, we conducted this study with the objective: “To survey on the components of metabolic syndrome and determine the serum ferritin levels in patients with metabolic syndrome”. Methods: A descriptive, cross-sectional study on 207 patients who were treated at the General Internal Medicine-Geriatric Department, Hue Central Hospital from 5/2016 to 8/2017. Patients were divided into two groups: study group (104 patients with metabolic syndrome) and control group (103 patients without metabolic syndrome and no serum ferritin-mediated disease). The metabolic syndrome was diagnosed by joint interim statement of the International Diabetes Federation/American Heart Association/ National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute/ World Heart Federation/ International Atherosclerosis Society/ International Association for the Study of Obesity 2009. Results: The most common combination of metabolic syndrome components was: hypertriglyceridemia - hypertension - hyperglycemia (15.1%). In the metabolic syndrome group, mean serum ferritin concentration was 391.62±181.97ng/ml (Increased ferritin concentration accounted for 86.54%). In men, mean serum ferritin concentration was 453.064 ± 161.75ng/ml (Increased ferritin concentration accounted for 96.15%). In women, mean serum ferritin concentration was 330.17 ± 181.71 ng/ml (Increased ferritin concentration accounted for 86.54%). Conclusion: In the group of patients with metabolic syndrome, the serum ferritin levels increases and the rate of Increased ferritin concentration was high.

Internal Medicine Virtual Specialist Assessment Program Reduces Emergency Department Transfers from Long-Term Care

Transfers to emergency departments (EDs) from long-term care (LTC) can expose residents to care discontinuities and risks. Virtual platforms can increase the breadth of care available for residents within their facility, thus replacing transfers to EDs when safe and appropriate. The authors aimed to assess whether leveraging a virtual care platform at an LTC facility would reduce the number of transfers to EDs. Data on the number of transfers to EDs were collected from January 2019 to October 2021 at an LTC facility. In June 2020 the home began using a virtual care platform that allowed residents to speak with specialist physicians through video and receive management plans remotely. The authors evaluated the Internal Medicine Virtual Specialist Program (IMVSP) using a pre-post study design by comparing the number of transfers to EDs and the proportion of transfers resulting in hospital admission before and after program implementation. Unstructured phone interviews were conducted with employees at the home to understand their experiences. The median number of transfers to EDs per month after program implementation showed a 13.0% reduction. The median proportion of these transfers resulting in hospital admission per month increased by 26.1%. Employees at the LTC home were satisfied with the program. The IMVSP reduced transfers to EDs and allowed for a higher proportion of transfers that resulted in hospital admission. Early access to specialist care via virtual platforms has important implications for improving accessibility to high-quality care for LTC residents and reducing risks associated with transfers.

Features of the Prevention of Entrepreneurial Offenses in the Formation of a Legal State

Object of study: The article deals with the measures of prevention of criminal offenses in the field of business according to the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Based on the results of the survey conducted with entrepreneurs and specialists engaged in the investigation of crimes in the field of business, the author, while studying the personality of the criminal in this field, determining the causes and consequences of crime and the dynamics of its growth, proposes comprehensive measures for the prevention of business crimes. The main goal of the research is a comprehensive analysis of criminal legislation and criminological issues of crimes whose subject is an entrepreneur, as well as theoretical justification and systematic development of organizational and legal measures that provide action against the illegal behavior of this category of persons on this basis. Methodology: Based on the basics of empirical research, the researcher is increasing the relevance of the article by means of legal analysis, survey research and other critical methods. The main materials of the research are the materials of 500 criminal cases in the archive, the results of the answers received from 400 citizens in a number of regions of the country, the results of the answers received from 300 practical employees of the city and district Internal Affairs Departments, the Financial Police and Legal statistics of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Justice, the Anti-Corruption Agency and the Prosecutor General and statistical data of the information reporting committee. Main results: As a result of the study, a proposal was made to make changes to the criminal legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan to hold those who have committed criminal offenses in the field of economic activity responsible for business entities (representatives of small, medium and large businesses). Theoretical contributions: A special way to increase the effectiveness of legislation on entrepreneurship is criminal responsibility for entrepreneurial activities. Traditionally, criminal responsibility is a state coercion and the most severe punishment is always a measure of influence against the offender. According to scientists, it has been proven that as a result of the economic growth of the country, the crime rate will decrease.

Unraveling the Connection: Visceral Adipose Tissue and Vitamin D Levels in Obesity.

Vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency are widespread on a global scale, with multiple factors playing a role in their development, such as limited exposure to sunlight, inadequate dietary consumption, as well as obesity and abdominal fat accumulation. Abdominal obesity, assessed with waist circumference (WC), is associated with metabolic syndrome and has been linked to low vitamin D levels. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and vitamin D levels, particularly examining the potential threshold for vitamin D storage and sequestration using adipose tissue. The study was conducted between 2020 and 2022 with 58 patients from an internal medicine outpatient department. Patients with certain medical conditions and those taking medications affecting bone metabolism were excluded. Blood samples were collected at baseline and after 6 months of monthly cholecalciferol supplementation. Ultrasonography was used to evaluate adipose tissue measurements, including subcutaneous adipose tissue thickness, VAT, preperitoneal adipose tissue (PPAT), and prerenal adipose tissue (PRAT). Anthropometric measures such as the waist-to-hip ratio and waist-to-height ratio were also assessed. The results showed that all subjects had significant hypovitaminosis D at baseline. After 6 months of supplementation, the mean increase in vitamin D levels was 9.6 ng/mL, with 55.2% of subjects becoming deficient. The study revealed a significant correlation between follow-up vitamin D levels and waist circumference, hip circumference, and VAT. VAT exhibited a strong correlation not only with vitamin D levels but also with waist circumference. When analyzing gender differences, males showed a higher weight and waist-to-hip ratio, while females had higher body adiposity indexes and subcutaneous adipose tissue measurements. In conclusion, this study highlights the relationship between VAT and vitamin D levels, emphasizing the potential role of adipose tissue in vitamin D availability. Waist circumference was identified as a surrogate measure for VAT evaluation. Furthermore, the study showed variations in vitamin D response to supplementation between genders, with a higher percentage of males reaching normal vitamin D levels. Predictive factors for vitamin D levels differed between genders, with waist circumference being a significant predictor in males and body adiposity index in females.

Determining cybersecurity culture maturity and deriving verifiable improvement measures

PurposeThe human factor is the most important defense asset against cyberattacks. To ensure that the human factor stays strong, a cybersecurity culture must be established and cultivated in a company to guide the attitudes and behaviors of employees. Many cybersecurity culture frameworks exist; however, their practical application is difficult. This paper aims to demonstrate how an established framework can be applied to determine and improve the cybersecurity culture of a company.Design/methodology/approachTwo surveys were conducted within eight months in the internal IT department of a global software company to analyze the cybersecurity culture and the applied improvement measures. Both surveys comprised the same 23 questions to measure cybersecurity culture according to six dimensions: cybersecurity accountability, cybersecurity commitment, cybersecurity necessity and importance, cybersecurity policy effectiveness, information usage perception and management buy-in.FindingsResults demonstrate that cybersecurity culture maturity can be determined and improved if accurate measures are derived from the results of the survey. The first survey showed potential for improving the dimensions of cybersecurity accountability, cybersecurity commitment and cybersecurity policy effectiveness, while the second survey proved that these dimensions have been improved.Originality/valueThis paper proves that practical application of cybersecurity culture frameworks is possible if they are appropriately tailored to a given organization. In this regard, scientific research and practical application combine to offer real value to researchers and cybersecurity executives.

Impact of In- Service Training Program on Nurses' Performance for Minimizing Chemotherapy Extravasation.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of an in-service training program on nurses' performance in minimizing chemotherapy extravasation. Quasi-experimental (Pre /Posttest) research design was utilized to conduct this study. The study was conducted at the internal medical oncology departments at South Egypt Cancer Institute. A convenience sample was used to select all available nurses working in medical oncology departments (40) nurses. Data was collected by using a pre/post questionnaire sheet for nurses' knowledge, Pre/post observation checklist for nurses' practice, and an in-service nursing training program on nurses' knowledge and practice for minimizing chemotherapy extravasation. The majority of nurses have attained any training program related to chemotherapy extravasation in their last 10 years of educational and professional training, There was a Positive correlation between nurses' knowledge scores pre and post-implementation of in-service training program with ±SD mean 23.77±.97 and with P. value <0.001** There were highly statistical significant differences between total score checklist nurses' practice pre/ post implementation of in-service training program on nurses to minimize chemotherapy extravasation through mean 234.97± .15 and Value < 0.001**. The In-service training program had statistically significant improvement on totally nurses' knowledge and practice on minimizing chemotherapy extravasation.

Российский рынок вагоноремонтных услуг: конкурентоспособность субъектов в эпоху цифровизации

The study is devoted to the analysis of the domestic market for carriage repair services as well as the prospects of its development under the conditions of digitalization. The authors emphasized rolling stock repair due to the ongoing reform of this industry and its transfer to a competitive basis through the development of independent market agents as well as a fully competitive market. Passenger carriage repair is realized by internal departments of the company. As a result of the research, the directions of digital transformation in the freight car repair market were revealed. In particular, it was suggested to introduce electronic document management, the development of a unified electronic register of spare parts and performed works, and the creation of digital “twins” (electronic copies) of freight cars. These measures would greatly decrease the operating costs of rolling stock by streamlining the time to process information about their condition and simplifying procedures for planning maintenance, scheduled repairs, and unscheduled repairs. In the car repair services market, a digital ecosystem is formed as a result of the integration of such digital platforms as automatic control systems, portals of electronic document management, specialized portals, and electronic databases of spare parts and other components. This allows for connections between car repair enterprises, owners of rolling stock, the owner of infrastructure (OJSC Russian Railways), as well as other participants in the market under analysis. These transformations lead to higher service, help to avoid the usage of low-quality spare parts, increase repair quality, and, as a result, increase railway transportation security. The work demonstrates the economic effect of digital ecosystems used for document management and the interaction process between carriage owners and repair enterprises.
