Leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Competitive Intelligence (CI) Research

Rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have significantly transformed how individuals and organizations engage with their work, particularly in research and academia. Universities are urgently developing protocols for student use of large language models (LLMs) for coursework, while peer-reviewed journals and research conferences remain divided on the necessity of reporting AI assistance in manuscript development. This paper examines the diverse perspectives on LLM usage in scholarly research, ranging from concerns about contamination to recognition of its potential benefits. Building on existing literature, we explore guidelines for competitive intelligence (CI) researchers to effectively utilize GPT models, such as ChatGPT4, Scholar GPT, and Consensus GPT, throughout the research cycle. These models, developed by OpenAI, employ generative AI to produce new content based on user prompts, with output quality dependent on input specificity. Despite their recognized potential in literature reviews, qualitative analysis, and data analysis, the full capabilities of GPT models in research remain underutilized. This article provides a comprehensive guide for business researchers to integrate AI language models in planning, structuring, and executing research. Specific guidance is provided for business researchers focused on competitive intelligence.

Trade-off Analysis in Strengthening the Criteria for Master Teacher Promotion

Effective master teachers constitute a valuable human resource playing a significant role not only as instructional leaders but also as educational researchers. However, the pressing demands of quality education alongside changing policies call for the need to ensure that these leaders meet competitive standards. Using the developmental-evaluative design, this study which is anchored on Criterion Theory, aims to enhance the existing criteria of the Department of Education (DepEd) in screening, selecting, and hiring Master Teacher applicants. Delphi technique and trade-offs analysis with ten expert respondents derived nine new and consensually evaluated measures (research training, research conference, publication, INSET/LAC, completed researches, best practices/innovations, qualifying examination, master's degree & awards) comprising the "Enhanced Criteria for Master Teacher Promotion" at 70-point cut-off qualification. The discriminant function model constituted data from 60 Master Teachers in the Maasin City Division and confirmed discriminatory success at 91.78% variability during model validation of 15 Master Teachers. Thus, the new criteria demonstrate the potential to assure the DepEd of competent and quality instructional leaders that the country needs today. This study recommends the adoption of the enhanced criteria as a policy. However, further evaluation is necessary to strengthen its validity before its full implementation.

A Decade of the Database Systems Research with the Lens of PODS, SIGMOD, TODS, and TKDE: A Bibliometric Perspective

Database management systems are an essential research field in data engineering, data mining, and computer science. The development and research in this field have evolved from manual bookkeeping to automatic data storage, rapidly growing with time. In this bibliometric study, the articles from four premier venues of publication in the field of database systems have been collected for analysis, including ACM Special Interest Group on Management of Data SIGMOD, a well-reputed symposium PODS (Principles of Database Systems) and two journals of the domain namely: Transactions on Database Systems (TODS) by ACM, and Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering (TKDE). This study includes the articles published between 2010 and 2019 in the selected venues to perform bibliometric analysis. Both TKDE and TODS are highly reputed journals in the field of database systems but publish quite different research. The SIGMOD conference began in 1975 and specializes in the research area of databases and data management problems, whereas PODS is the research conference that specializes in research related to database theory. This study presents the analysis of the collected articles from three major aspects: 1) metadata analysis, 2) content-based analysis, and 3) citation-based analysis. Furthermore, it also looked at the leading institutes, countries, and authorities based on article citation and publication count. As a whole, this study proposes a methodology for performing the extensive bibliometric analysis for the database management system and conducts a bibliometric analysis for the aforementioned top publication venues in this area of research.

Lenacapavir: Playing the Long Game in the New Era of Antiretrovirals.

The mainstay of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has been combination oral therapy. While oral ART is highly effective, nonadherence remains a chief concern. Addressing this concern in recent years is the emergence of long-acting antiretrovirals for the treatment and prevention of HIV-1 infection. The most recently approved long-acting antiretroviral is the first-in-class capsid inhibitor lenacapavir (LEN) for heavily treatment-experienced adults with multidrug-resistant HIV-1 infection. Due to its biannual subcutaneous dosing scheme to inhibit the HIV-1 capsid, LEN exhibits unique pharmacokinetics and reinforces an evolving era of ART. In this review, we evaluate published and accepted research articles, conference proceedings, and clinical trial records to provide a comprehensive overview of LEN for treatment and preliminary data for the prevention of HIV-1 infection. These data include clinical trials outcomes, in vitro and in vivo resistance profiles, and preclinical data supporting downstream indications. We also discuss the unique clinical pharmacology of LEN with the goal of serving as a resource toward subsequent physiologically based, population-based, and other miscellaneous pharmacometric-focused analyses. Given the dynamic nature of the HIV treatment and prevention research fields, we also discuss ongoing studies related to LEN for treatment-naïve adults and for prevention. Lastly, we discuss important pharmacologic gaps in special populations, drug-drug interactions, and at the sites of action germane to HIV treatment and prevention. The information discussed in this review will provide knowledge and understanding of the unique pharmacologic properties of LEN to assist clinicians and researchers as they navigate the dynamic HIV research landscape.

Identifying Dementia research priority for Qatar national dementia research plan: A Cross-sectional Survey.

The World Health Organization (WHO) published the Global Action Plan 2017-2025 seven years ago to address the dementia burden for those impacted, including persons living with dementia, their families, and health-care providers. There were seven action areas in the global action plan; the least achieved was action area seven (dementia research and innovation). The primary objective of the study was to assess the top 10 dementia research priorities among healthcare professionals, patients, caregivers, the public, and stakeholders to develop the Qatar National Dementia Research Plan. Convenience sampling was used in this cross-sectional survey. The study was conducted online with the involvement of HMC staff (physicians, nurses, and allied health staff) from all HMC facilities, patients and caregivers from Rumailah Hospital's Geriatric Department, and the public who attended the 2022 Advanced Dementia Research Conference. The survey was conducted during 22nd of October 2022 till April 31, 2024. Overall, 2000 participants provided their responses, which included health care professionals under HMC, including physicians, nurses, allied health staff, patients, caregivers, the public, and stakeholders in Qatar. Dementia Risk Reduction (79%) was the top priority for the survey participants. The remaining nine priorities were the impact of early treatment (76%), health system capacity (73%), implementation of best practices for care (73), access to information and services post-diagnosis (71), caregiver support (70%), emotional well-being (67%), care provider education (65%), end-of-life care (65%), and non-drug approaches to managing symptoms (65%). The survey results clearly indicated that most participants ranked Dementia Risk Reduction as their top priority, indicating the essential focus on dementia prevention. These findings, together with goals such as early treatment, healthcare system capacity, and caregiver support, highlight the importance of an integrated, multidisciplinary approach to dementia management.

Memphis NeuroSTART Program: Promoting Student Success and Increasing the Diversity of Applicants to Neuroscience Graduate Programs.

With grant support from the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Awards to Stimulate and Support Undergraduate Research Experiences (ASSURE) program funded by the Department of Defense (DoD) Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), we established a program intended to increase the number of underrepresented racial and ethnic minority (URM) and first-generation undergraduate students successfully applying to neuroscience and other STEM-related graduate programs. The Neuroscience Techniques and Research Training (NeuroSTART) Program aimed to increase the number of undergraduate students from the Memphis area involved in behavioral neuroscience research. In this two-semester program, students completed an empirical research project in a neuroscience lab, received individual mentoring from neuroscience faculty, became part of a STEM network, presented at research conferences, and attended specialized professional development seminars. In two cohorts of 15 students, 4 are PhD students in neuroscience-related programs or in medical school (27%), 4 are employed in neuroscience-related research facilities (27%), 3 are employed as clinical assistants (20%), and 1 is employed in the IT field (7%). The remaining three recently graduated and are planning a gap year prior to applying for admission to graduate/medical school. The Memphis NeuroSTART program has provided valuable training to participants, making them competitive applicants for jobs in the health sciences and for admittance into graduate neuroscience programs. By providing this training to first-generation and URM students, the broader impact of this program was an increase in the diversity of the health sciences workforce, particularly those specializing in neuroscience-related research and treatment.

아시아 헌법재판기관간 교류의 현황과 과제 : 아시아헌법재판소연합(AACC)을 중심으로

While the international communications among constitutional courts in Asia take various forms, in terms of multilateral forums, Association of Asian Constitutional Courts and Equivalent Institutions (AACC) is virtually the only one in which 21 constitutional courts or equivalent intstitutions participate. Unlike ordinary courts’ judicial exchanges, communications among judicial bodies in the realm of constitutional adjudication have the unique characteristic of enabling substantial and practical interactions beyond diplomatic and formal aspects. This is because, although the constitution holds the status of domestic law, the substantial content of the constitution, such as the protection of human rights and the separation of powers doctrine, is often common across countries. This characteristic is no exception in the Asian region. In the overall exchanges among constitutional adjudication bodies in Asia, the exchange of experiences and views on substantial constitutional issues occupies a significant proportion. The AACC has three permanent secretariats responsible for administration, research, and education, with the Secretariat for Research and Developmet(AACC SRD) operated by the Constitutional Court of Korea. Despite this, the AACC is not well-known in the domestic academic community. In light of this situation, this paper aims first to examine the basic history and current status of the AACC and AACC SRD. Notably, the AACC SRD has consistently held international research conferences for judges or rapporteur judges every year since 2017, even during the COVID-19 pandemic, and has published research book annually since 2018. This is noteworthy as it is unparalleled in terms of both quantity and quality in the comparative constitutional law studies within the Asian region. The second goal of this paper is to explore ways to address the limitations that the AACC Research Secretariat has exposed, with the perspective that the Constitutional Court of Korea can play a leading role in the development of constitutional law in the Asian region through the AACC SRD, which shapes the substance of exchanges among constitutional courts in Asia. From this perspective, this paper suggests strengthening research capabilities as a means to enhance the operations of the AACC Research Secretariat, specifically by expanding human and material support through measures such as seconding constitutional rapporteur judges to the AACC SRD. This paper specifically underscores the absence of Korean research personnel at the AACC SRD to date and strongly advocates for the inclusion of Korean researchers in its workforce.
