The research is dedicated to investigating the sociocultural characteristics of digitalization. The Digital Age has a great impact on the formation of individuals’ moral consciousness, and the main trends of digitalization and modern social development are examined in this work. The peculiarities of the influence of information and communication technologies on the formation of the value system of individuals are analyzed. The authors consider digitalization in the context of the formation of the world’s digital image and a digital individual. The problem of comprehension of digitalization processes in science and philosophy is presented. An examination of concepts such as “digitalization”, “information society”, and “social network” is carried out. The relevance of the topic is due to the fact that digitization and, by extension, informatization, are developing and significantly expanding the horizons of global scientific, technical, and socio-economic progress. Together, these lead to serious interactions between the ultramodern and traditional, the latter being formed over centuries’ of events in institutions and structures, but rapidly transformed in the the world of social communications. With traditional societies increasingly replaced by those which are virtually augmented, additional grounds are created for vast changes in various spheres of public life, in increasingly numerous locations, and sometimes also creating bases for the growth of instability and conflicts. The work aims to show the effect of digitalization on the value system of individuals, especially young people, based on theoretical analysis.The research methodology focuses upon a conceptualization of the phase model of digitalization, the problem of social Internet networks, the theory of the Information Age.

As the world continues to urbanize, the construction of transportation highway continuously requires quality pavement which made transportation engineers and experts focus on improving the performance and life of pavements, to which many studies had searched for better materials or modifications that could improve the properties of bitumen and reduce or even eliminate the development of asphalt pavement failures. To this end, the properties of bitumen modified with blend of PET + nanoclay was conducted. The bitumen was modified with PET (0.5 – 4.0% at 0.5% interval), and nanoclay (1.0 – 8.0% at 1% intervals), while the tests conducted on the materials were oxide composition test, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) test, penetration test, solubility test, ductility test, flash and fire point test, specific gravity test, softening point test, and viscosity test in accordance with codes and specification. Results from the findings showed that the unmodified bitumen and PET are hydrocarbon materials, while the nanoclay is an inorganic compound and a good reactive pozzolana. More results from the findings showed that the properties of bitumen was improved with addition of PET and nanoclay blend such that the penetration and solubility of bitumen decreases with increase in modifier content, and there was an increase in softening point, flash point, fire point, specific gravity, and viscosity of bitumen as replacement of PET and nanoclay blend increases. Hence, the modifiers (Nanoclay/PET blend) can be used to improve properties of bitumen since they fall within standard and code specification.

Background: One of the most serious complications of diabetes that places an enormous strain on the patient, the healthcare system, and the world economy is diabetic retinopathy (DR). It includes long-term exposure to the metabolic changes linked to diabetes, which cause damage to the retina's microvasculature. Objectives: The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy and associated risk factors among diabetic patients in a tertiary care hospital. Methods: This cross-section observational study was carried out in the Department of Ophthalmology, North Bengal medical College. Convenience sampling technique was followed. Face to face interview was done to collect data with a semi-structured questionnaire. After collection, the data were checked and cleaned, followed by editing, compiling, coding and categorizing according to the objectives and variable to detect errors and to maintain consistency, relevancy and quality control. Statistical evaluation of the results used to be obtained via the use of a window-based computer software program devised with Statistical Packages for Social Sciences (SPSS-24). The duration of the period from July 2018 to July 2022. A total of 120 patients were participate in the study. Results: About 58.33% respondents were male and 41.67% were female. Majority (33.33%) of the respondents were within the age group of 50-59. 33.33% were service holder, 41.67% were businessman, 12.5 were day labor, 6.67% were farmer. 75% were from urban area and 25% from rural area. The prevalence of DR in this study was 41.1%. About 90% had DM of <5 years, 55% had 6-10 years, 40% had 15-20 Years, 30% had 16-20 years and only 7% had >21 years. About 50% had normal grade of diabetic retinopathy in the worse eye, 15% had Mild NPDR, 8.33% had Moderate NPDR, 6.67% had Mild to moderate NPDR with non-CSME, 2.5% Moderate NPDR with CSME, Severe NPDR with non-CSME Severe NPDR with CSME and Advanced PDR respectively. Mean FBS (mg/dl) was 160.86±70.6, Total cholesterol (mg/dl) was 183.2 ± 2.1, Triglycerides (mg/dl) was 161.2 ± 2.6, Systolic BP was 130.56±15.7 and Diastolic BP was 80.86±13.4. Patients with baseline age of <60 years were three times (AOR = 3.2:95% CI: 1.19–8.63) more likely to develop DR. The odds of DR is about 3 times (AOR = 2.91:95% CI: 1.01–8.35) higher for patients with disease duration of ≥6 years as compared to disease duration of <6 years. Systolic blood pressure also had statistically significant association with patients having blood pressure of <140 mmHg being about 3.6 times (AOR = 0.28:95% CI: 0.09–0.82) less likely to have DR as compared to hypertensive patients with systolic blood pressure of ≥140 mmHg. The other cofactors, history of hypertension, and total cholesterol level were not independent significant factors for the development of DR in our study. Conclusion: Systolic hypertension, being on insulin alone or in combination with OHA, and having diabetes for a longer period of time were all independently linked to the occurrence of DR. The significant DR prevalence our study suggests that routine patient care, including treatment facilities, has to be improved. Healthcare practitioners must make a consistent effort to educate diabetic patients about the importance of blood sugar control and hypertension management in lowering the risk of the start and progression of DR. It is advised that diabetic patients get health education regarding the importance of routine eye exams for the early detection and treatment of diabetes-related eye problems.

The upshot of nonlinear thermal radiation of steady state MHD heat transfer of Jeffrey nanofluid together with prescribed boundary conditions of interest was studied. Essential fluid properties, dimensionless switch parameters with the assistance of the Lie group method were used to transform the convenient partial differential equations that describe the present model into a system of ordinary differential equations. The generalized flow of the present model incorporates Jeffrey parameters and nonlinear thermal radiation. The Mathematical model is first renovated into ordinary differential equations by Lie symmetry group alteration. The renovated equations were solved numerically using a bvp4c MATLAB solver. The Jeffrey parameter serves as a stabilizer on the velocity of the fluid while thermal radiation parameter and heat source-sink parameter improves the flow temperature. Lewis number, chemical reaction parameter diminished the mass transfer flow. Equally skin friction, Sherwood number and Nusselt number were expanded.

Nursing leaders play a critical role in guiding and directing nursing staff to guarantee high-quality healthcare delivery. The impact of nursing leadership on patient outcomes, quality of care, patient safety, collaboration with other healthcare professionals, and professional growth and mentoring is critically examined in this manuscript. The analysis highlights that nursing leadership had a significant impact on patient outcomes by encouraging evidence-based practices and increasing nursing staff engagement and job satisfaction. Furthermore, nursing leaders that prioritize patient satisfaction and hospital readmissions. Nursing leaders develop a culture of safety, enforce adherence to safety regulations, and support continual progress in terms of patient safety. Collaboration with other healthcare professionals is essential for nursing leaders to improve healthcare delivery, care coordination, and patient outcomes. Nursing leaders are also responsible for offering professional development opportunities and mentoring to nursing personnel, which improves staff engagement and retention. Regardless of the beneficial impact, nursing leaders confront problems such as insufficient personnel, restricted resources, and insufficient support from organizational leaders. It is the role of the leadership to mitigate risks and opportunities for safe patient care.

The paper assessed 28 Value Engineering (VE) reports of studies conducted by third party VE consultants on Saudi Aramco capital projects from January 2020 to August 2022. The findings indicate that there is an inverse relationship between accepted number of VE proposals and the size of the workshop review team (the larger the team, the smaller percentage of accepted proposals). It, also, showed that accepted number of VE proposals is not influenced by the duration of VE workshops. The paper recommends the optimization of the size of VE teams and optimized workshop durations to be aligned to Saudi Aramco (SA) capital management system project classifications. The recommendations may result in increasing the number of quality accepted VE proposals while reducing the cost of VE workshops.

Background: The burgeoning issue of drug addiction, coupled with its intricate linkages to psychiatric aspects, necessitates innovative interventions. This research delves into the efficacy of awareness campaigns as a strategy for addressing the psychiatric dimensions of drug addiction, specifically within the confines of a tertiary level hospital in Bangladesh. Methods: This prospective study examined the impact of awareness campaigns on drug addiction's psychiatric dimensions. Using purposive sampling, 100 patients were selected from the Department of Psychiatry, Rajshahi Medical College, between January 2020 and December 2022. Quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews were conducted to measure changes in awareness, attitudes, and behaviors. Standardized scales gauged shifts over time. Ethical considerations were adhered to. Pre- and post-campaign comparisons facilitated longitudinal assessment. Results: Preliminary findings reveal a positive shift in participants' awareness of psychiatric aspects linked to drug addiction after exposure to awareness campaigns. Initial awareness levels of 25% concerning psychiatric dimensions rose significantly to 68% post-campaign. Moreover, willingness to seek comprehensive treatment increased from 32% before the campaign to 75% afterward. Actively seeking treatment information also saw a rise, climbing from 18% pre-campaign to 56% post-campaign. Qualitative insights highlighted that 83% of participants acknowledged the campaigns' role in enhancing understanding. Additionally, participants displayed improved attitudes towards seeking treatment for both addiction and concurrent psychiatric issues. These results collectively indicate the campaigns' efficacy in fostering heightened awareness, altering attitudes, and driving proactive behaviors. Conclusions: The initial results indicate that awareness campaigns hold promise as effective tools in addressing the psychiatric dimensions of drug addiction treatment. A comprehensive analysis of the complete dataset will provide deeper insights into the extent of these changes and their potential long-term implications for treatment outcomes.

A pharmacist in general and community pharmacist in specific is a key member of the “healthcare team” involved in achieving a common objective of better healthcare provision. The emergence of “community pharmacy” during post-world war-II era, with a known motto of “drug control” and “patient oriented practice” (POP) came in to existence. The modern pharmacy practices, are not devoid of obstacles and challenges specifically for “Newbie Community Pharmacist (NCP)”, who comes in to direct patient contact at root level, thus necessitates to strict to standards which will help not only in quality care provision but will enhance the abilities of the pharmacist to cope challenges facing at community level. Herein, we will discuss some of the concerns for NCP and their considerations to deal with.

All parts of Mucuna poggei and Justicia carnea have been known to possess valuable medicinal properties. This calls for the need to determine the effect of combined methanol extract of mucuna poggei and justicia carnea leaves on hematological and biochemical indices of phenylhydrazine induced anaemic albino rats. The study was done using 60 male albino rats. The rats were divided into five groups of five (5) rats each. Group 1 (non-anaemic) was administered water and feed only which served as Normal control. Group 2 was administered Phenylhydrazine only which served as negative control. Group 3 through 5 were Phenylhydrazine induced anaemia treated with combined extract (1:1) at 200 mg/kg, 400 mg/kg and 600 mg/kg respectively. The results showed a significant (p<0.05) increase in Hepatic and renal biomarkers (ALT, AST, ALP, Urea, Creatinine) of the anaemic (negative) control. The combined extract significantly restored the alteration through significant (p<0.05) dose dependent decrease in the assayed hepatic and renal function biomarkers. The hematological indices of the treated rats were maintained compared to the anaemic control. The study showed great potential of combined methanol extract of Mucuna poggei and Justicia carnea leaves capable of ameliorating anaemia.

The center disclosures of this paper are that precludes maltreatment of kids; their abuse is rejected and youngster work is restricted. This work likewise features about Kid misuse, abuse, kid work, and trading youngsters for reason for prostitutions are restricted under the Bangladeshi regulations. The predominance of actual attack was a lot higher among more youthful youngsters albeit the likelihood of different sorts of misuse was higher among more established kids. Young men were more presented than young ladies to maltreatment of any sort. Destitution was additionally fundamentally connected with kid misuse. Multivariate examination proposed that the out-of-younger students and the offspring of ignorant, landless and incompetent workers were bound to be mishandled than others when age and sex of kids were controlled. The paper infers that bringing up open mindfulness against kid misuse and advancing preventive measures ought to be embraced to decrease kid maltreatment in Bangladesh.

Background: EHRs have the potential to improve patient healthcare by providing real-time access to patient information, improving communication between healthcare providers, and reducing medication errors. However, the evidence on the impact of EHRs on clinical outcomes is mixed. Objective: To review the literature on the impact of EHRs on clinical outcomes and to provide recommendations for improving the use of EHRs to improve patient healthcare. Methods: A literature review was conducted to identify studies on the impact of EHRs on clinical outcomes. The search was limited to English-language studies published in peer-reviewed journals. Results: The literature review found that EHRs have the potential to improve clinical outcomes, such as mortality, morbidity, hospital readmission rates, and bed utilization. EHRs can also help to reduce medication errors and improve patient safety. However, the impact of EHRs depends on a number of factors, such as the quality of the EHR system, the way it is implemented, and the training of healthcare providers. Recommendations: For improving the use of EHRs to improve patient healthcare include: Developing high-quality EHR systems that are easy to use and can integrate with other systems, Providing adequate training for healthcare providers on how to use EHRs effectively, Encouraging interoperability between EHR systems from different vendors, Addressing privacy and security concerns, Reducing user resistance to EHRs. Conclusion: EHRs have the potential to improve patient healthcare by providing real-time access to patient information, improving communication between healthcare providers, and reducing medication errors. However, the impact of EHRs depends on a number of factors, such as the quality of the EHR system, the way it is implemented, and the training of healthcare providers. By following the recommendations above, we can make EHRs a more effective tool for improving patient healthcare.

The current hot trend in education is outcomes-based education (OBE), which guides students in developing their professional careers and makes them more knowledgeable and creative. This might facilitate their healthy development within the context of their workplace. Gaining the skills outlined for outcome-based education via NBA calls for the use of the proper evaluation techniques. This is because the evaluation of graduate skills is crucial to the coaching learning system's efforts to improve the system and students' performance. This process will give the machine ideas for bridging the gap between coaching and completely results-based mastering methods. In the beginning, this paper outlines the foundations of final results-based training and introduces important implementation criteria. The paper then addresses important implications of implementing the framework for the practise and strategies of assessment and evaluation of college students' performance in engineering colleges.
