  • Purpose: This review describes the historical changes in nutrition philosophy from a reductionist to a holistic approach during the $20^{th}$ century. Also, the role and efficient use of a holistic approach to precision nutrition are discussed. Results: Over the past century, significant progress has been made in human nutrition research, unraveling fundamental mechanisms of single nutrients on single targets or pathways. This kind of a reductionist approach has helped to save populations from nutrient deficiency diseases and improve associated health outcomes in large parts of the world. However, a new set of nutrition problems, like obesity and diet-related chronic diseases, are growing each year worldwide, increasing the financial burden on the health care system. A linear cause-effect association between single nutrients and a single physiologic effect, is insufficient to solve the complex nutrition-health relationships. Research that involves a more holistic rather than reductionist approach is needed to tackle a new set of nutrition problems. Recent advances in technology, informatics, and statistical methods are enabling an understanding of the diversity of individuals and the complex interactions between foods and human bodies, leading to the concept of "precision nutrition." Conclusion: The emerging goal of precision nutrition is to provide tailored dietary advice for maintaining health and preventing obesity and diet-related chronic diseases. The parts are already being installed. To grab the complexity, reductionism and holism must be used interdependently.

  • HIV/AIDS disease still remain a global pandemic and it's management has undergone series of treatment changes and improvement although there is still no permanent cure.Dolutegravir belongs to a group of HIV drugs called integrase inhibitors. Integrase inhibitors block an HIV enzyme called integrase. By blocking integrase, integrase inhibitors prevent HIV from multiplying and can reduce the amount of HIV in the body.Dolutegravir combination based regimen has turned out to be very effective (antiviral) with negligible rare side effects on clients. This drug (Dolutegravir based regimen) combination has successfully increased the appetite for food of all the clients, unlike others and has shown to reduce viral load in the most shortest period ever. It can be deduced that development of resistant mutant virus will be reduced if not eliminated with dolutogravir based regimen.The role of Continuous adherence counseling has shown to improve clients treatment management. It is important to note that the availability of food has direct effect on the economic status or financial weight on the client. Hence the progress that is increase in body mass index (BMI) is a direct impact of the availability of food for the clients.

  • 2020년 12월, 한국의 금산분리 원칙과 관련한 공정거래법이 개정되고 이를 1년 뒤인 2021년 12월 30일부터 시행한다는 정부의 발표가 있었다. 개정의 내용은 과거 금산분리의 대원칙이었던 산업자본의 금융시장 침투 금지 기조를 깨고 '일반지주회사의 중소기업창업투자회사와 신기술사업금융전문회사 주식의 소유 가능'이었다. 이 개정 법의 전제는 발행주식 총수의 소유이었지만, 법 개정 전후로 CVC(Corporate Venture Capital; 기업주도형 벤처캐피탈)의 연간 설립 건수와 투자 건수, 전략적 투자 건수 등의 추이에 변동이 있었다. CVC와 IVC(Independent Venture Capital; 독립 벤처캐피탈)는 투자 목적, 펀드 운용 유형, 투자 유형에 따라 그 특징이 구분되는데, 이 부분에서 금산분리법의 완화는 향후 벤처투자생태계와 혁신생태계의 활성화에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 수 있다고 기대된다. 본 연구에서는 법 개정 전인 2018년부터 법 개정 이후 2023년 5월까지 국내 CVC의 설립 건수, 투자 건수, 전략적 투자건수의 추이를 분석하여, 개정 금산분리법이 시행되었던 2021년을 기준으로 추이의 변화를 살펴보았다. 분석의 결과, 국내 CVC는 2021년에 전년대비 큰 폭으로 증가했으며, 투자건수와 전략적 투자건수, 전략적 투자의 투자금액 또한 과거에 비해 증가했음을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 이러한 결과를 토대로 향후 국내 CVC 투자와 전략적 투자, 벤처투자시장 활성화 등과 관련한 추가적인 연구의 방향을 제시한다.

  • Analyzing the psychological and pedagogical literature, we showed the interest of researchers in the problem posed. The concept of competence is considered, which is interpreted as giving the key to solving a wide range of educational and life tasks. Research competence implies the ability to cooperate, enter into contacts, readiness for changes, for self-determination and is an integral quality of the individual, expressed in the readiness and ability to independently search for solutions to new problems and creative transformation of reality based on a set of personal and meaningful knowledge, skills, methods of activity and value attitudes.The article offers conditions that certify the improvement of forms and methods of training students in the formation of research competence of future specialists. The use of innovative technologies contributes to improving the level of training of future specialists: students are better prepared for classes, take an active part in the assimilation of program material in laboratory classes. It is noted that this creates a subject-subject relationship between the student and the teacher, and changes the attitude of students to classes. In the process of such organization of educational activities, students are convinced of the need for knowledge and its effectiveness, learn to compare, generalize, classify, establish cause-and-effect relationships, express opinions, defend their point of view, they ensure success in their studies, and develop research competence. It is proved that in order to apply the latest technologies, the teacher himself must know them well, that is, constantly improve himself, master new methods, techniques, ideas, which will help him create new pedagogical technologies and implement them in the educational process.

  • The goal of this study is to understand better the relationship between hospital bed occupancy rate and cost rigidity as a proxy for the degree of hospital bed congestion, as well as the relationship between the risk of changes in hospital bed occupancy rate and congestion cost, targeting public hospitals. As public hospitals for analysis, we selected hospital projects from the Public Enterprises Survey Reports published by the Department of Public Enterprises, Ministry of Finance, and obtained unbalanced panel data consisting of 1,505 hospitals and 15 years, totaling 12,595 hospitals and years. The analysis revealed that the risk of changes in the bed occupancy rate increases the degree of cost rigidity and leads to a decrease in the variable cost ratio; furthermore, an increase in the bed occupancy rate decreases the degree of cost rigidity and leads to an increase in the variable cost ratio. These findings suggest that although public hospitals are taking managerial actions to avoid congestion costs, congestion costs resulting from higher bed occupancy rates have not been eliminated. The regression analysis results show that even if congestion costs arise as the occupancy rate increases, they are covered by the increase in revenue associated with the increase in the occupancy rate.

  • 최근 들어 인터넷의 발전 및 정보기술의 급속한 발전은 많은 산업에 있어서 급속한 변화를 이끌어 왔다. 가장 급속히 발전한 산업 중 하나가 콜센터이다. 현재 거의 대부분의 공공기관이나 보험회사 등 금융회사, 쇼핑몰 등에서 수많은 콜센터 인력들이 상담을 진행하고 있으나 몰려드는 상담에 비해 상담원의 수가 많이 부족하여 고객 불만으로 확대대고 있다. 또한 상담원을 통한 제품의 홍보, 상품의 광고 등 매출을 유도하는 중요한 채널인 콜센터의 아웃바운드 기능도 부족한 상담인원으로 인해 수많은 업무를 진행하지 못하는 불상사가 발생되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 데이터 마이닝 기법을 이용해서 통화 연결률을 극대화 할 수 있는 최적시간대 및 통화채널 분석 모델방법에 대하여 제안 하였다.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the determinants of the capital structure of firms operating in a developing economy, Pakistan. The quantile regression method is applied on a sample of 183 non-financial companies listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange during the period of 2008-2017. Specifically, the empirical analysis focuses on changes in the coefficients of the determinants according to the leverage ratio quantiles of the examined listed firms. The findings show that the capital structure of Pakistan listed firms differs between firms in different quantiles of leverage. These differences are significant with the sign of explanatory variables changes with the level of leverage. The research result found tangibility, profitability and age to be positively related to leverage among listed firms in Pakistan. However, size, liquidity and non-debt tax shield (NDTS) are negatively related to leverage. A firm's growth and risk are found to be insignificant predictors of capital structure in Pakistan listed firms. Moreover, the study also found a significant impact of industry characteristic on leverage. The findings of this study indicate that an individual firm's finance policy needs to be responsive to the firm's characteristics and should match with the different borrowing requirements of listed firms.
