Comparative analysis of approaches to assessing the market cost of business in domestic and foreign practice

The greatest demand in the modern world is for business valuation service. Valuation activity makes it possible to identify the important characteristics of a particular business which is necessary for making management decisions by company owners. The results of business valuation are used to determine existing perspectives: the presence of investment opportunities, ways to optimise business processes, need to expand business activities, etc. According to statistics, several decades ago, business valuation was conducted in no more than 10 % of cases. Currently, on the contrary, more than 90 % of companies are interested in regular valuation. However, the widespread demand for business valuation has made it possible to find a number of pressing problems that need to be solved in the future. One of the most serious сhallenges is the existence of problem areas in the national legal framework. The work examines the process of business valuation using basic methods and approaches, analyses the foreign experience on the research topic and also valuates a domestic enterprise in different ways. The authors concluded that it is necessary to choose the method that can be most effective in valuating a particular enterprise in particular conditions.

Codevelopment of a model of care for adults living with cystic fibrosis-related diabetes.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) related diabetes affects up to half of all adults with CF and is associated with higher morbidity and mortality. Our aim is to codevelop an ideal model of care that integrates diabetes technology and better meets the needs of adults living with the condition to improve attendance, engagement, service satisfaction, and clinical outcomes. Using qualitative research methods, we evaluated disease perceptions, barriers, and enablers to optimal CF-related diabetes management and service delivery. Integration of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) was also explored. An initial broad purposive consumer survey was followed by focus groups with end-users. Grounded theory approach was utilized with major problem areas identified then explored, coded, and grouped into requisites for an "ideal model of care"for adults living with CF-related diabetes. Two key themes emerged (i) an ideal model of care consisted of a dual-specialty service co-led by endocrinology and CF physicians and supported by diabetes educator and CF dietitian with a goal to provide consistent and personalized diabetes management and (ii) CGM was acceptable for use in adults with CF-related diabetes with many perceived benefits and should be integrated into the model of care. Barriers to optimizing glycemic control included diet, finger-prick testing, reduced access to CGM, and pulmonary exacerbations. End-user feedback on CGM was overwhelmingly positive with regard to operability. CGM was also identified as a tool that could be used to engage, educate, and empower adults living with CF-related diabetes and facilitate constructive and personalized clinical decision-making by healthcare providers. For adults living with CF, a diagnosis of diabetes is associated with increased treatment burden. Our findings suggest an "ideal model of care"for CF-related diabetes would be co-led by endocrinology services integrated within a pre-existing CF service, incorporating CGM.

Development of Microcontroller Based Water Quality Monitoring and Water Level Control Device

Access to clean and safe water is not only a fundamental human right but also a vital requirement for electronics industries, chemicals industries, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage production, fisheries and aquatic farming. This project addresses the pressing issue of water quality monitoring and efficient water usage within the context of these industries. The study's identification of problem areas for water quality can lead to more efficient interventions and solutions to safeguard the environment, and prevent waterborne diseases. This paper presents the design and implementation of microcontroller-based system for monitoring water quality and water level in the thank, the water in the thank is refilled when it goes beyond a set threshold with the aid of an automatic switch control. The system is a hybrid of 3 subsystems: a Water Level Checker, a Water Quality Monitoring System and an Automatic Switch control system. The Water level checker consists of Ultrasonic sensors. The Water Quality Monitoring system consists of pH sensors, TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) sensors and Turbidity sensors. The continuous (Analog) data from the water quality sensors used would be outputted via an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display). The Automatic Switch control system consists of 5v Relay modules and a 12v Pump that would automatically switch ON/OFF depending on the level of water in the tank. The values of EC (Electrical Conductivity) and TDS spike drastically to the introduction of salt from as low as 138 -906 for TDS and 0.34 – 2.04 for EC, signifying increase in water capacity of electrical conductivity. Temperature rise in the afternoon also increases TDS values from 142 for clean water to 920 for the salty water while it ranges from 138 for clean water to 906 for salt water at both morning and evening time. Pumping aspects of the system are triggered when water level in the thank falls below 10% and trips off when water level goes above 95% as programmed in the control unit. The developed system marks a significant achievement in water management and automation technology. integration of quality monitoring sensors has enabled real-time evaluation of water parameters that holds potential for applications in environmental monitoring, ensuring safe drinking water, and safeguarding aquatic ecosystems. The automated switch control mechanism responds dynamically to water levels, enabling the system to trigger actions such as pump activation or filling processes based on predefined thresholds.

SCOPING REVIEW OF PSYCHOLOGICAL RESEARCH AND PUBLICATIONS RELATED TO THE EFFECTS OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC AND THE MEASURES TAKEN

Publications of 21 scientific studies from the field of psychology and psychiatry related to the effects that the spread of COVID-19 has on mental health and the measures taken by mental health professionals to control the negative consequences on the psyche of people are presented. In this regard, the aim of the article is to present a summary of the main subjects in scientific research in the field of mental health. The article differentiates five main problem areas in relation to people's mental health and emotional response to COVID-19: in terms of age; gender differences; personality characteristics; professional activity and behaviour; telepsychiatry and telepsychology. The analysis of the publications shows that the effects can be divided into two categories: short-term and long-term, and in both categories the effects can be positive and negative; the authors emphasize the phenomenology of subjective experiences. Most researchers draw the following conclusions: the COVID-19 pandemic has provoked high levels of stress, mental instability, PTSD, depression, cognitive and neurological disorders; vulnerable groups (elderly people, young people, health professionals, people with mental health problems before the pandemic, homeless people and refugees) have more mental health problems during the pandemic and are slower to recover. Another important conclusion from the 21 studies studied is that it is necessary to formulate recommendations to improve people's mental health, to involve mental health professionals in the development of comprehensive public health policies and to support health care workforce as well as to improve public health prevention strategies, especially during health crises.

Mitigating Severe Hypoglycemia in Users of Advanced Diabetes Technologies: Impaired Awareness of Hypoglycemia and Unhelpful Hypoglycemia Beliefs as Targets for Interventions.

Objective: A subgroup analysis of the Hypoglycemia Awareness Restoration Programme for people with type 1 diabetes and problematic hypoglycemia persisting despite optimized care (HARPdoc) trial was conducted to explore the impact of Blood Glucose Awareness Training (BGAT, a hypoglycemia awareness training program) and the HARPdoc (a psychoeducation addressing unhelpful hypoglycemia beliefs) in reducing severe hypoglycemia (SH) in individuals using advanced diabetes technologies (ADTs). Methods: Data from trial participants who utilized ADTs, including continuous glucose monitors or automated insulin delivery systems, were extracted. Generalized linear mixed-effects models with Poisson distribution or linear mixed-effects models were used to evaluate SH incidence, and Gold questionnaire, Attitudes to Awareness of Hypoglycemia (A2A), Problem Areas in Diabetes (PAID), Hospital Anxiety and Depress Scale (HADS)-anxiety, and HADS-depression scores as measures of hypoglycemia awareness, unhelpful hypoglycemia beliefs, diabetes distress, and anxiety and depression symptoms, respectively. Results: In the 45 participants using ADTs, the BGAT and HARPdoc interventions both reduced SH incidence by more than 50% (P < 0.0001) and yielded improvements in hypoglycemia awareness (P < 0.05). HARPdoc outperformed BGAT in reducing SH at month 24 (P = 0.01). HARPdoc also mitigated unhelpful hypoglycemia beliefs (P < 0.0001), diabetes distress (P < 0.05), and anxiety symptoms (P < 0.05); BGAT demonstrated no significant impacts in these respects. Neither HARPdoc nor BGAT had significant effects on depression symptoms. Conclusion: Psychoeducation (BGAT and HARPdoc) was effective in reducing SH in people using ADTs. HARPdoc may also provide greater long-term SH reduction and improves psychological well-being in this patient group.

Brokerage and social segregation: a case study of cluster housing environment in Gading Serpong, Indonesia

PurposeThe paper aims is to see why social conflict caused by class segregation did not occur in Gading Serpong? What factors prevent conflict from occurring? This research seeks to find the causes of the nonoccurrence of social conflict due to class segregation in the Gading Serpong cluster area and explore the factors that restrain conflict there.Design/methodology/approachThis research is qualitative research with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews with several parties identified as brokerages in the research object area. In this context, one of the media and analytical tools is to recognize agents or brokers who connect two groups of people. Brokerage occurs in sectors, patterns or forms of informal, personal relationships; to understand it, one must pay close attention to micro-level relationships and social psychological processes. However, brokerage can have a significant impact on macro-level social relations, as it is generally associated with social integration processes.FindingsThe lack of involvement of developers in overcoming social conflicts that occur between Gading Serpong natives and migrants in Gading Serpong housing has given rise to new actors. These new actors are what we can call brokers, where they have a role as brokers who are able to connect between migrants and natives in the Gading Serpong area. The broker phenomenon is actually familiar in academia, where in practice the broker acts as someone who is able to find solutions to problems. The broker is the reason even social segregation is created between migrant citizens and native citizens in Gading Serpong but never becomes a conflict between them.Research limitations/implicationsEven if the brokerage phenomenon is the reason why there is no conflict over social segregation brokerage is not the only factor in this nonconflict segregation. Therefore, to cover the larger area of these suburban segregation problems, there must be further research on this topic.Practical implicationsThe practical implication of this research is to encourage the housing developers that create urban housing, such as clusters or other gated communities, to evaluate the social factors, such as potential segregation and conflict management. Also to encourage the developers to get involved and create some social engineering systems, like brokerage, market and other social agents, to create some nonconflict segregation or even more inclusive communities.Originality/valueThis research is uncovering the main reason why social segregation between migrant and native people in Gading Serpong, which could potentially lead to conflict, is never a conflict. The main reason is social actors like brokerage.

Diabetes-related stress in older adults with type 2 diabetes and chronic complication: Multiple effects of social-ecological support on self-management behavior.

This study aims to explore the relationship among diabetes-related distress, social-ecological support, and self-management behavior in older adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic complications. This cross-sectional study included older adults with T2DM in Shanghai, China, between January and July 2022. The problem areas in diabetes scale (PAID), the chronic illness resource survey (CIRS), and the diabetes self-management behavior for older (DSMB-O) were employed. A total of 264 participants (157 [59.47%] males, aged 71.07 ± 6.47 years) were included; their T2DM duration ranged from 5 to 30 years, with an average of 11.19 ± 6.96 years. The DSMB-O scores were negatively correlated with the PAID scores and positively correlated with CIRS scores. The CIRS scores were negatively correlated with the PAID scores. CIRS had a positive direct effect on DSMB-O, and CIRS had an indirect effect on DSMB-O through PAID. CIRS had a total effect on DSMB-O through PAID. The mediating effect made up 28.89% of the total effect. In older adults with T2DM and chronic complications, chronic illness resources were correlated with diabetes-related distress and self-management behavior. Chronic illness resources had both a direct effect on self-management behavior and an indirect effect through diabetes-related distress.

Problems and Barriers Related to the Use of mHealth Apps From the Perspective of Patients: Focus Group and Interview Study.

Since fall 2020, mobile health (mHealth) apps have become an integral part of the German health care system. The belief that mHealth apps have the potential to make the health care system more efficient, close gaps in care, and improve the economic outcomes related to health is unwavering and already partially confirmed. Nevertheless, problems and barriers in the context of mHealth apps usually remain unconsidered. The focus groups and interviews conducted in this study aim to shed light on problems and barriers in the context of mHealth apps from the perspective of patients. Guided focus groups and individual interviews were conducted with patients with a disease for which an approved mHealth app was available at the time of the interviews. Participants were recruited via self-help groups. The interviews were recorded, transcribed, and subjected to a qualitative content analysis. The content analysis was based on 10 problem categories ("validity," "usability," "technology," "use and adherence," "data privacy and security," "patient-physician relationship," "knowledge and skills," "individuality," "implementation," and "costs") identified in a previously conducted scoping review. Participants were asked to fill out an additional questionnaire about their sociodemographic data and about their use of technology. A total of 38 patients were interviewed in 5 focus groups (3 onsite and 2 web-based) and 5 individual web-based interviews. The additional questionnaire was completed by 32 of the participants. Patients presented with a variety of different diseases, such as arthrosis, tinnitus, depression, or lung cancer. Overall, 16% (5/32) of the participants had already been prescribed an app. During the interviews, all 10 problem categories were discussed and considered important by patients. A myriad of problem manifestations could be identified for each category. This study shows that there are relevant problems and barriers in the context of mHealth apps from the perspective of patients, which warrant further attention. There are essentially 3 different areas of problems in the context of mHealth apps that could be addressed to improve care: quality of the respective mHealth app, its integration into health care, and the expandable digital literacy of patients.

Screening for diabetes distress and depression in routine clinical care for youth with type 1 diabetes.

The purpose of this study is to examine diabetes distress as a potential mediator of the relationship between depression symptoms and diabetes outcomes, including hemoglobin A1c (hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c]) and diabetes management behaviors in a clinical sample of adolescents and young adults. In a pediatric diabetes clinic, 716 youth (ages 12-21 years) completed measures of diabetes distress (Problem Areas in Diabetes-Teen [PAID-T]), a single-item of diabetes distress, and depression (Patient Health Questionnaire [PHQ-9]) as part of standard care. Electronic health records were extracted for the "Six Habits" and glycemic management (HbA1c). Overall, 3.6% (n = 26) of adolescents had clinically elevated diabetes distress and depression symptoms, 5.0% had diabetes distress alone, 8.7% had depression symptoms alone, and 82.7% had neither clinical elevation of diabetes distress nor depression symptoms. Results of mediation analysis demonstrated diabetes distress (both full and single-item measures) fully mediated the relationship between depression symptoms and HbA1c (p < .001). Also, mediation analysis results showcase incomplete mediation of the effect of the Six Habits score on HbA1c appears by PAID-T Diabetes Distress. In a clinical sample of youth with type 1 diabetes, both depressive symptoms and diabetes distress are associated with HbA1c. Furthermore, diabetes distress fully mediates the relationship between depressive symptoms and HbA1c. As part of standard clinical care, the single-item screener for diabetes distress captured similar results as the full-scaled PAID-T. With limited clinical resources, providers may consider focusing assessment and interventions on the psychological factor of diabetes distress within the diabetes clinic to maximize the impact on glycemic control and consider the use of single-item screening to identify distress.

A New Hybrid Optimization Algorithm to Solve the Clustering Problem

: This paper presents a novel hybrid technique, merging the K-means algorithm with Genetic Algorithm (GA), aiming to enhance clustering performance. This approach leverages the strengths of both algorithms, enabling improved cluster generation by overcoming individual algorithmic limitations. The GA-KM algorithm is introduced to aid K-means in avoiding local optima, with GA exhibiting proficiency in determining optimal cluster initialization and parameter optimization. The focus is on developing a GA-based algorithm for generating high-quality clusters efficiently. Notably, the research explores the application of this hybrid approach to address issues in the educational domain, specifically for out-of-school children. The fitness function in GA is tailored to the problem area, emphasizing the need for an appropriate system to study and address school children's problems. The research proposes a hybrid algorithm (KM-GA-NM-PSO) that amalgamates the best features of existing algorithms, thereby overcoming individual limitations and promising superior results. This hybridization is expected to yield high-quality clusters with minimal function evaluations, outperforming other methods by producing clusters with small standard deviations on selected datasets. The proposed approach, combining KM, GA, NM, and PSO algorithms, demonstrates improved data clustering quality and algorithmic efficiency.

The role of peer social relationships in psychological distress and quality of life among adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus: a longitudinal study

BackgroundAdolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus suffer from diabetes distress and poor health-related quality of life (HRQOL) since living with the condition that differentiates them from their peers. The present study investigated the effects of peer support and stress on diabetes distress and HRQOL and whether positive coping mediated the effects.MethodsWe used a prospective study design. A total of 201 adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus from 20 cities in 4 provinces were recruited.Participants complete two separate surveys at approximately 18-month intervals. The scales employed at both Time 1 and Time 2 included the Diabetes-Specific Peer Support Measure, Diabetes Stress Questionnaire for Youths, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire, 5-item Problem Areas in Diabetes Scale, and the Diabetes Quality of Life for Youth scale.ResultsBaseline peer stress directly predicted diabetes distress and HRQOL at 18 months, even controlling for age, gender, and peer support. However, the direct effect of baseline peer support on 18-month diabetes distress and HRQOL was insignificant. Baseline peer support indirectly affected diabetes distress and HRQOL at 18 months through positive coping, indicating that positive coping plays a mediating role.ConclusionThe findings suggest that peer social relationships, especially peer stress, and positive coping are promising intervention targets for adolescents facing challenges in psychosocial adaptation.

Queering Rainbow Social Marketing: Ensuring Equitable Outcomes for Rainbow Communities

Unfortunately, though we are seeing more acceptance/tolerance in society, Rainbow communities/LGBTQIA+ community continue to be marginalised and discriminated against. Many of these negative pressures and barriers create negative outcomes. Rainbow communities represent an umbrella term for sexually and gender diverse people including but not limited to transgender, non-binary, gay, lesbian and bisexual individuals. Social marketing offers a medium for pro-social change. However, interventions focused on Rainbow communities are comparatively scant, and little critiques have been put forward to ensure inclusion and facilitate appropriate representation and engagement. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to critique and evaluate existing Rainbow social marketing literature. To complete this evaluation, queering was used to highlight gaps, inaccuracies or limitations in the literature. Given reflection on the literature, three main problem areas emerged (1) a heavily skewed focus on the sexual health of gay men and MSM (men who have sex with men), (2) issues surrounding the individual(s) leading the intervention and (3) misrepresentation of identities in analysis and reporting. In identifying these issues, areas for further development, scrutiny and investigation can be revealed. Synthesising this, the other major contribution of this article is a discussion regarding vital future research that highlights areas of focus for Rainbow research and social marketing. The queering approach used supposes an emancipatory disposition and aims to highlight practical changes for that normative environment. Therefore, complementing the overarching aim, an objective and contribution of this paper are practical recommendations to ensure that social marketers appropriately support and engage Rainbow communities.

Онлайн-переписка как пространство для формирования концептуальных основ лингводидактической деятельности (на примере курса «Письменная речь»)

The paper deals with the organization of linguistic education aimed at developing communicative and speech skills. The research concentrated on its textual component in foreign students as part of a writing course. The study was part of the project on linguistic and didactic potential of online correspondence, which highlighted a problem area in the speech behavior of foreign students who were in correspondence with Russian native speakers. The issue had to deal with the text organization of letters. The research team addressed the speech and thinking activity of the foreign students and, subsequently, turned to the cognitive tools for arranging the written and speech material, i.e., the frame. The frame analysis revealed a linguodidactic genre frame model with the stages of framing and reframing. During the framing stage, the students mastered the actual communicative-speech material to form the content of the subject-situational frame as an integral part of the genre frame. Further development was expansion-oriented. The framing made it possible to acquire textual norms, which led to the text frame, i.e., the second component of the genre frame. The reframing stage was aimed at developing the textual competence based on context complication and stylistic transformations of the original meanings. The article introduces various types of lexical, syntactical, and textual transformations, as well as stylistic transformations that allow non-native speakers to express the same meaning with stylistically diverse linguistic means.

A Self-Guided Web-Based App (MyDiaMate) for Enhancing Mental Health in Adults With Type 1 Diabetes: Insights From a Real-World Study in the Netherlands.

MyDiaMate is a web-based intervention specifically designed for adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) that aims to help them improve and maintain their mental health. Prior pilot-testing of MyDiaMate verified its acceptability, feasibility, and usability. This study aimed to investigate the real-world uptake and usage of MyDiaMate in the Netherlands. Between March 2021 and December 2022, MyDiaMate was made freely available to Dutch adults with T1D. Usage (participation and completion rates of the modules) was tracked using log data. Users could volunteer to participate in the user profile study, which required filling out a set of baseline questionnaires. The usage of study participants was examined separately for participants scoring above and below the cutoffs of the "Problem Areas in Diabetes" (PAID-11) questionnaire (diabetes distress), the "World Health Organization Well-being Index" (WHO-5) questionnaire (emotional well-being), and the fatigue severity subscale of the "Checklist Individual Strength" (CIS) questionnaire (fatigue). Two months after creating an account, study participants received an evaluation questionnaire to provide us with feedback. In total, 1008 adults created a MyDiaMate account, of whom 343 (34%) participated in the user profile study. The mean age was 43 (SD 14.9; 18-76) years. Most participants were female (n=217, 63.3%) and higher educated (n=198, 57.6%). The majority had been living with T1D for over 5 years (n=241, 73.5%). Of the study participants, 59.1% (n=199) of them reported low emotional well-being (WHO-5 score≤50), 70.9% (n=239) of them reported elevated diabetes distress (PAID-11 score≥18), and 52.4% (n=178) of them reported severe fatigue (CIS score≥35). Participation rates varied between 9.5% (n=19) for social environment to 100% (n=726) for diabetes in balance, which opened by default. Completion rates ranged from 4.3% (n=1) for energy, an extensive cognitive behavioral therapy module, to 68.6% (n=24) for the shorter module on hypos. There were no differences in terms of participation and completion rates of the modules between study participants with a more severe profile, that is, lower emotional well-being, greater diabetes distress, or more fatigue symptoms, and those with a less severe profile. Further, no technical problems were reported, and various suggestions were made by study participants to improve the application, suggesting a need for more personalization. Data from this naturalistic study demonstrated the potential of MyDiaMate as a self-help tool for adults with T1D, supplementary to ongoing diabetes care, to improve healthy coping with diabetes and mental health. Future research is needed to explore engagement strategies and test the efficacy of MyDiaMate in a randomized controlled trial.

Formulation of the problem. In the period of today's complex challenges - the conduct of military operations on the territory of Ukraine, the consequences of the pandemic, an unfavorable investment climate, and others - the detection of the probability of bankruptcy of enterprises is of particular importance. Timely detection of the onset of crisis phenomena using various methods and models and the adoption of precautionary measures ensure the avoidance of financial instability in the future. Therefore, conducting a timely diagnosis of the probability of bankruptcy is relevant, because there is a growing need for effective financial management in order to achieve the goals set by enterprises in the long term. The purpose of the research is to build a methodology for diagnosing the probability of bankruptcy of enterprises based on various bankruptcy models, based on the conditions of their activity, and to form forecasts of their further development on this basis. The object of the research is the process of constructing a diagnosis of the probability of bankruptcy of aviation industry enterprises. The method of the research - its became modern methods and principles of scientific knowledge, methods and techniques for evaluating bankruptcy diagnostics, tools of financial and economic analysis, models for forecasting further development, which allowed to combine existing approaches for multifaceted assessment of the probability of bankruptcy and identification of factors affecting the unstable activity of enterprises. The hypothesis of the research there was an assumption about the possibility of building a methodology for diagnosing the probability of bankruptcy of enterprises using modern, widely used methods of assessing bankruptcy, financial analysis of the results of operations and forming forecasts of further stable development. The statement of basic materials. The article examines the main stages of diagnosing the probability of bankruptcy of aviation enterprises, which provides an opportunity to determine the factors that generate unstable activity, develop appropriate countermeasures to avoid problem areas, and predict the improvement of development conditions. It is emphasized that each individual enterprise can use its own methods of assessing the probability of bankruptcy, which require the development of further specific anti-crisis measures, but the proposed method allows a comprehensive and thorough approach to the prompt detection and avoidance of crisis phenomena at enterprises. The originality and practical significance of the research is confirmed by the approbation of the proposed methodology for diagnosing the probability of bankruptcy at aviation industry enterprises. Conclusions and perspectives of further research. It has been proven that the use of the proposed methodology for diagnosing the probability of bankruptcy at enterprises allows recognizing and identifying threats, predicting their consequences, making operational decisions regarding the elimination of threats and adjusting the strategic goals of the enterprise's development. Further research will be aimed at assessing the probability of bankruptcy of enterprises in priority sectors of the national economy and developing measures for their recovery activity.
