Abstract:
The theoretical bases of research of category of innovative susceptibility of the canning industry enterprise are considered. The most significant components of the category of innovation susceptibility are defined and they are underlined as the basis of methodical approach to the identifying of the degree of readiness of enterprises to introduce innovative development strategies and to select the optimal approach to organizational, economic, informational and financial support for the implementation of this strategy. It is developed the conceptual scheme of the implementation of innovative approaches to the development of enterprises of canning industry, which includes the stages of identifying the key challenges of canning companies, the key solutions to these problems, assessment of the degree of susceptibility of enterprises to innovative changes for the definition of type of innovation strategy, evaluation of efficiency of the adopted strategy. The existing methodical approaches to assessment of the level of innovation receptivity of company is based on consideration of relevant factors that create problems for innovations implementation, namely of material, technological and intangible nature, personnel, organizational, managerial, financial, economic, logistic-infrastructure, marketing, investment. The system of standards for assessing of the level of innovative susceptibility that has been developed, includes 5 ranges from critically low level of innovative susceptibility to high level. It is proposed to abandon the practice of determining of the integral indicator of innovative susceptibility of an enterprise in order to avoid inaccuracies in imposing of influence of various factors. The methodical approach to assessing of the susceptibility of innovative enterprises by groups of indicators allows us to evaluate the level of company security by specific factors. The future prospects of research on the subject of canning enterprises innovative susceptibility include the development of strategic approach to managing of their activities in target direction.

The subjeсt of the researсh is the innovative susceptibility of the enterprise. The goal of the researсh is to identify the most significant factors affecting the level of innovative susceptibility of the enterprise. The researсh methods used are observation, data сolleсtion, analysis, and synthesis, сomparison, grouping, systematiс and сomplex approaсh. The researсh results. In the framework of this study, the authors analyzed the innovative activity of the enterprise as a detailed expression of its innovative susceptibility, which by its results is logically connected with the full range of end results of the enterprise functioning as a production system and is subordinated to the need to achieve a given level of such results. The domain of appliсability of the researсh results is the innovative policy of the enterprise, focused on improving its market position. Сonсlusions. The formation and implementation of the innovative susceptibility of the enterprise is a complex process, the course of which is determined by the complex effect of various factors that have both internal and external sources in relation to the enterprise. At its core, the transition of innovative susceptibility of an enterprise from its unrealized (factorial) form to a form of direct innovation activity is a natural process of transforming the formed innovative capabilities of an enterprise into concrete innovations. This process becomes real when it has the necessary resource base, sufficient internal and external conditions are created, and also when the personnel of the enterprise are genuinely motivated to take innovative actions.

Abstract:
Currently, the relevance of the country's innovative development is justified not only by external challenges in the world economy, but also by the internal need for an economically balanced development of the subjects of the real sector of the economy. At the same time, the activation of innovative activity of economic entities is impossible without increasing the level of their innovative susceptibility. It should be noted that despite the general interest of the scientific community in the innovative development of the economy and the large publication of works on this topic, the interpretation of the concept of «innovative susceptibility» is still freely interpreted and not enshrined in any legislative act. The purpose of the article is the author's study of the economic essence of innovative susceptibility of the organization. The study of this problem is based on general scientific methods of knowledge of economic phenomena and processes (analysis and synthesis, system approach, dialectical method, etc.). The article presents the author's rethinking of the concept of innovative receptivity of the organization. Based on the analysis of existing concepts on the issue under consideration, the authors formulate a refined interpretation of the concept of «innovative susceptibility» at the level of the organization and consider the main categories associated with this concept. It is established that the innovative activity of the organization is not possible without its innovational susceptibility. In turn, innovative susceptibility is not possible without motivated staff and the mood of the business entity to use its innovative potential to increase competitiveness. Conclusions and results of the article can be used in the educational and scientific process of economic faculties of higher educational institutions. During the writing of the article, the lack of a unified approach to the interpretation of the concept of innovative susceptibility of the organization was revealed, despite the great interest in the problems of innovative development of organizations in the modern post-industrial world. Therefore, the author's interpretation of the economic essence of innovative susceptibility of the organization was formulated. The subject, object, reasons and conditions of innovative susceptibility of the organization are defined.

Abstract:
It is known that for the implementation of innovation, it is important to know the level of the enterprise's susceptibility to innovation. Only after assessing the innovative potential of the enterprise, a decision is made on the possibility of conducting innovative activities and an innovative project is developed. At the same time, the development strategy should be based on the enterprise's susceptibility to innovations and readiness to implement them. It has been proved requires special approaches to the perception of problems and their assessment. Since the main feature of the environment of innovative enterprises is market and social uncertainty, there is a need to form specific theoretical and practical methods for ensuring the implementation of innovative projects with a focus on minimizing risks. Research confirms that an innovative project is proposed to be understood as a system of interrelated tasks, is a complex of research, development, production, technological, organizational, financial, commercial and other events, appropriately organized, drawn up with a set of design documentation for estimate calculations and efficiency calculations, which provide an effective solution to a specific scientific and technical problem of an innovative nature in for a certain time. It has been established that an innovative project is based on the concept of its life cycle, which proceeds from the fact that an innovative project is a process that continues from the moment the strategy of a new product is developed until the moment of liquidation. It is advisable to distinguish three stages of the life cycle – the formation, implementation and completion of an innovative project. That the management of an innovative project is an indispensable element of building a competitive strategy for survival in new markets during a period of rapid scientific and technological development and.

Abstract:
Innovative development a priori determines the viability and success of any economic system; at present, the role of innovation in economic activity is so great that the economy is named innovative. Based on the analysis of domestic and foreign scientific literature, the problem of assessing the effectiveness of innovative development is revealed. Existing statistically observable indicators assess the conditions, resources, results of innovative processes; comparison of indicators is difficult due to their diversity of time and diversity of objects. The use of project analysis and forecasting techniques, methods for evaluating innovative projects does not allow assessing the prospects for the innovative development of the system as a whole. In addition, the uncertainty of the main characteristics of innovative development was revealed, they talk about «innovative activity», «innovative susceptibility», «innovative competitiveness». The authors propose to evaluate the results of innovative development based on «innovative viability». It was found that there are few scientific works on the assessment of solvency (economic, social, functional solvency, management solvency are considered), and only two works of Russian authors are devoted to innovative solvency. In the foreign scientific literature, only the problems of viability of innovations are studied. The author's definition of the content of the concept of «innovative viability» is proposed – a set of qualities, quantities, interconnections of the elements of the innovation system that exist in time and space (theoretical definition); for a separate economic system (region, enterprise) – this is the level of management that allows it to function successfully; it is a combination of quantitative and qualitative characteristics that ensures its sustainable viability and rationally active innovative activity; criteria for evaluating innovative viability are proposed: innovative potential, effectiveness of innovative activity, the ratio of the «fulcrum» and «center of gravity».

Abstract:
This study aimed to provide an overview of eco-innovations in the Brazilian industry. To address this issue, we analyzed specific data of eco-innovative companies. In addition, we applied the cluster heatmap technique, which allowed us to analyze the different drivers and impacts of eco-innovations in different sectors. According to the results, companies that stated that innovation made it possible to reduce their environmental impact represent a third of all innovators. Moreover, they are companies that have shown greater effort to innovate and greater susceptibility to the benefits and obstacles of innovation. Furthermore, the eco-innovation strategy is mainly driven by market factors, such as reputation and codes of good practice. The impacts are mainly associated with the use of more widespread and less complex technologies, such as recycling. In addition to these results, the study considers some alternatives to guide the innovation policy, especially related to eco-innovations in semi-peripherical countries.

Abstract:
Many bacterial infections in humans and animals are caused by bacteria residing in biofilms, complex communities of attached organisms embedded in an extracellular matrix. One of the key properties of microorganisms residing in a biofilm is decreased susceptibility towards antimicrobial agents. This decreased susceptibility, together with conventional mechanisms leading to antimicrobial resistance, makes biofilm-related infections increasingly difficult to treat and alternative antibiofilm strategies are urgently required. In this review, we present three such strategies to combat biofilm-related infections with the important human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus: (i) targeting the bacterial communication system with quorum sensing (QS) inhibitors, (ii) a ‘Trojan Horse’ strategy to disturb iron metabolism by using gallium-based therapeutics and (iii) the use of ‘non-antibiotics’ with antibiofilm activity identified through screening of repurposing libraries.

Abstract:
This study aims at proposing and designing an improved clustering algorithm for assessing landslide susceptibility using an integration of a Chameleon algorithm and an adaptive quadratic distance (CA-AQD algorithm). It targets improving the prediction capacity of clustering algorithms in landslide susceptibility modelling by overcoming the limitations found in present clustering models, including strong dependence on the initial partition, noise, and outliers as well as difficulties in quantifying the triggering factors (such as rainfall/precipitation). The model was implemented in Baota District, Shaanxi province, China. The CA-AQD algorithm was adopted to split all grids in the study area into many groups with more similar characteristic values, which also owed to efficiently quantifying the uncertain (rainfall) value by using AQD. The K-means algorithm divides these groups into five susceptibility classes according to the values of landslide density in each group. The model was then evaluated using statistical metrics and the performance was validated and compared to that of the traditional Chameleon algorithm and KPSO algorithm. The results show that the CA-AQD algorithm attained the best performance in assessing landslide susceptibility in the study area. Thus, this work adds to the literature by introducing the first empirical integration and application of the CA-AQD algorithm to the assessment of landslides in the study area, which then is a new insight to the field. Also, the method can be helpful for dealing with landslides for better social and economic development.

Summary Objectives: This study assessed the relationships between cancer screening beliefs (perceived pros, cons, and susceptibility) and reactions (acceptance, self-efficacy, intention to purchase) to an innovative home-administered kit (HAK) for fecal occult blood test (FOBT) among Chinese worksite population. Methods: A total of 450 Chinese people aged 40 and older were recruited from ten worksites in Taiwan (2002), with response rate of 83% (375/450). Results: All the belief scales of cancer screening in general showed good internal consistency (Cronbach alphas >0.70). Perceived benefits and barriers to-wards cancer screening were significantly correlated with the acceptance, self-efficacy, and order intention towards the FOBT-HAK (p-values <0.001). Perceived susceptibility of cancer was associated with intention to purchase. After taking gender into consideration, the regression analyses showed similar relationships. Conclusions: Screening beliefs were significantly associated with reactions toward the innovative FOBT-HAK. Intervention programs addressing these beliefs could potentially promote positive reactions to innovative CRC screening strategies.

Abstract:
A comparative analysis of innovation activity in the Russian Federation and EU countries is carried out. The comparison revealed that modern innovation policy should be aimed not only at increasing labor productivity, but also at solving social problems related to ensuring food security, environmental protection and improving the quality of life of the population. Maintaining a balance between the demand for digital technology and the supply of high-tech products on the market is a basic element in the transition to a new stage of scientific and technological structure. Factors that negatively affect the development and implementation of technological, organizational and marketing innovations are identified. It is shown that the synchronization of the chain of implementation of all newly created or improved technologies ensuring the continuity of the innovation cycle requires the combined efforts of all subjects of innovation. The level of diffusion of innovative activity in federal districts of the Russian Federation is estimated. It is concluded that there is a significant differentiation of regional and sectoral intensity of innovative development. It is substantiated that in order to reduce regional differentiation when introducing advanced practices into the production process, one should take into account the type of innovative activity. According to the attractiveness for investment, digital economy instruments are divided into three categories that characterize one or another stage of their life cycle: maturity, sustainable growth, and a breakthrough trend. It was revealed that the further massive penetration of technological innovations into all links of the production chain should clearly follow the global trends of production digitalization, where the key factor for the success of innovation-oriented companies is the search for the most promising investment projects at the stage of filing a patent application. Based on the analysis, recommendations were developed to stimulate innovative susceptibility in the regions of Russia.

Abstract:
The presented research identifies scientific schools of cluster development theory. It is substantiated that in the conditions of globalization, the main factor of the structural transformation of the regional economy and further positive structural changes is the innovative susceptibility of the region. This necessitates the rationalization of the regional economy structure based on the active cluster policy and identification of innovation development priorities of the regions, support of the innovative business development as an important component of the structural policy of the region. It is determined that in order to carry out progressive structural changes in the regional economy, it is necessary to conduct an active cluster policy, which increases the investment potential and effectiveness of the interaction of power and business. Based on the potential of the regions of Ukraine regarding their further innovation development, taking into account the cluster approach, which becomes one of the effective instruments for structural transformation of the regional economy, an estimation of the correlation between the volume of the GRP and indicators of innovation development has been conducted.

Abstract:
Landslides are natural disasters that have resulted in the loss of economies and lives over the years. The landslides caused by the 2005 Muzaffarabad earthquake heavily impacted the area, and slopes in the region have become unstable. This research was carried out to find out which areas, as in Muzaffarabad district, are sensitive to landslides and to define the relationship between landslides and geo-environmental factors using three tree-based classifiers, namely, Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), Random Forest (RF), and k-Nearest Neighbors (KNN). These machine learning models are innovative and can assess environmental problems and hazards for any given area on a regional scale. The research consists of three steps: Firstly, for training and validation, 94 historical landslides were randomly split into a proportion of 7/3. Secondly, topographical and geological data as well as satellite imagery were gathered, analyzed, and built into a spatial database using GIS Environment. Nine layers of landslide-conditioning factors were developed, including Aspect, Elevation, Slope, NDVI, Curvature, SPI, TWI, Lithology, and Landcover. Finally, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) value were used to estimate the model's efficiency. The area under the curve values for the RF, XGBoost, and KNN models are 0.895 (89.5%), 0.893 (89.3%), and 0.790 (79.0%), respectively. Based on the three machine learning techniques, the innovative outputs show that the performance of the Random Forest model has a maximum AUC value of 0.895, and it is more efficient than the other tree-based classifiers. Elevation and Slope were determined as the most important factors affecting landslides in this research area. The landslide susceptibility maps were classified into four classes: low, moderate, high, and very high susceptibility. The result maps are useful for future generalized construction operations, such as selecting and conserving new urban and infrastructural areas. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-02-02 Full Text: PDF

An article discusses the formation of innovative susceptibility of Ukrainian enterprises to the technologies of non-traditional renewable energy. The relevance of this problem is determined on the basis of the European concept of «Green U-turn», which is a logical continuation of the strategy «20-20-20» on the development of non-traditional renewable energy. The article proposes the use of a cluster approach to systematization, grouping and balancing general and specific factors that form the innovative susceptibility of Ukrainian enterprises to technologies of non-traditional renewable energy. The study is based on the expert information regarding stages of life cycles «production-consumption-utilization» of the various non-conventional renewable energy technologies, as well as the analytical information on publication activity as an important factor in the integral assessment of the priorities of energy-saving technologies. The estimates are formed taking into account the data on a sample of enterprises in Ukraine. The results of the study will serve as the basis for the formation of appropriate organizational and managerial clusters that allow enterprises to create an innovative product and thereby increase their competitiveness, which is a powerful incentive for national and regional development. Based on this integrated approach, it is possible to analyze factors both at regional level and at level specific enterprise.

Abstract:
AbstractAn accurate understanding of physical and socio-economic effects of landslides is fundamental to develop more refined risk management, mitigation strategies and land use policies. In this paper we develop a measure to consider the interconnection between physical and economic exposure, i.e. what we call the economic landslide susceptibility, namely the probability of landslide occurrence in an area weighted for its socio-economic exposure considering the real-estate market values. The economic landslide susceptibility is estimated through a method designed for large areas that we applied to the Umbria Region (Central Italy). The method makes use of landslide susceptibility maps and a real estate market value map for any given area under analysis. The innovative concept of economic landslide susceptibility (that is de facto an ex ante landslide cost assessment) may be interpreted as the potential loss that an area might suffer in terms of its propensity for landslides. Useful applications of the proposed method lie in a better territorial management and in the land use planning.

Every year, institutions spend a large amount of resources to solve emergencies generated by hydrogeological instability. The identification of areas potentially subject to hydrogeological risks could allow for more effective prevention. Therefore, the main aim of this research was to assess the susceptibility of territories where no instability phenomena have ever been detected. In order to obtain this type of result, statistical assessments of the problem cannot be ignored. In this case, it was chosen to analyse the susceptibility to landslide using a flexible method that is attracting great interest in the international scientific community, namely the Weight of Evidence (WoE). This model-building procedure, for calculating landslide susceptibility, used Geographic Information Systems (GIS) software by means of mathematical operations between rasters and took into account parameters such as geology, acclivity, land use, average annual precipitation and extreme precipitation events. Thus, this innovative research links landslide susceptibility with triggering factors such as extreme precipitation. The resulting map showed a low weight of precipitation in identifying the areas most susceptible to landslides, although all the parameters included contributed to a more accurate estimate, which is necessary to preserve human life, buildings, heritage and any productive activity.

Abstract:
Alteration of the ubiquitous thiol tripeptide glutathione (GSH) is involved in oxidative stress, which plays a role in ageing; consequently, GSH is closely related to this process characterized by progressive decline in the efficiency of physiological function and increased susceptibility to disease. When circulating GSH decreases, oral administration might be considered a therapeutic benefit. Unfortunately, due to the hydrolysis of the tripeptide by intestinalγ-glutamyltransferase, dietary glutathione is not a major determinant for its increase. Aim of this work was to evaluate improvement of GSH systemic availability testing,in vitroandin vivo, an optimized orobuccal fast-slow release formulation tablet containing pure stabilized GSH.In vitroevaluation of the penetration capability of the innovative GSH-release formulation showed that GSH was well absorbed by the reconstructed oral epithelium and its absorption has features of time-dependence. In addition,in vivoresults, obtained from 15 healthy volunteers, were in favor of GSH level improvement in blood showing fast (after 30 and 60 minutes) absorption through oral mucosa. In conclusion, the intake of GSH formulated through optimized orobuccal fast-slow release tablets gave positive results in raising GSH blood concentration.

Abstract:
The emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has become a major global health concern. Rapid and accurate diagnostic strategies to determine the antibiotic susceptibility profile prior to antibiotic prescription and treatment are critical to control drug resistance. The standard diagnostic procedures for the detection of antibiotic-resistant bacteria, which rely mostly on phenotypic characterization, are time consuming, insensitive and often require skilled personnel, making them unsuitable for point-of-care (POC) diagnosis. Various molecular techniques have therefore been implemented to help speed up the process and increase sensitivity. Over the past decade, microfluidic technology has gained great momentum in medical diagnosis as a series of fluid handling steps in a laboratory can be simplified and miniaturized on to a small platform, allowing marked reduction of sample amount, high portability and tremendous possibility for integration with other detection technologies. These advantages render the microfluidic system a great candidate to be developed into an easy-to-use sample-to-answer POC diagnosis suitable for application in remote clinical settings. This review provides an overview of the current development of microfluidic technologies for the nucleic acid based and phenotypic-based detections of antibiotic resistance.

In paper the empirical assessment of formation of innovative modes is presented to the industries. Relevance of research is caused by need of development of new tools of the analysis and stimulation of innovative development as industrial companies and national economy as a whole.Research objective – an assessment of the factors influencing innovative behavior of the company and allocation of innovative modes in the industry. Authors for the analysis of factors have used a method of the regression analysis of 627 Russian industrial companies given questioning, for allocation of innovative modes the clustering method is used with the help to – averages. In research factors are analysed: investments of the companies in researches and development, orientation to grocery and technological innovations, orientation to marketing innovations and creation of value, orientation to organizational and administrative innovations. Results of research show that in the Russian industrial sector it is possible to allocate innovative modes: “simulators”, “founders of valuable innovations”, “effective producers”, “technological innovators”, “radical innovators”. The “maturity levels” are developed for the allocated innovative modes depending on characteristics: opportunities the company independently to develop new products (services); improvement existing products, managements of researches and development, including coordination with external developers in network projects, strategic alliances, digital innovative platforms; generation and identification of new ideas; implementation of selection of ideas on the basis of the principles of compliance of strategy and their further development; identifications of new enterprise opportunities (studying of changes of environment and branch market, assessment of influence and identification of threats); providing a susceptibility to new technologies, a transfer of technologies; ensuring rationalization of system of production and management and commercial processes; improvement of operating technological processes; commercial use of objects of intellectual property. It is shown that the companies of higher level of an innovative mode make a bigger contribution to gross domestic product, create more workplaces and provide higher level of a salary, therefore development of the mechanism of stimulation of transition of the companies to more advanced level of an innovative mode is necessary.

Abstract:
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has emerged as a major threat to public health globally. Accurate and rapid detection of resistance to antimicrobial drugs, and subsequent appropriate antimicrobial treatment, combined with antimicrobial stewardship, are essential for controlling the emergence and spread of AMR. This article reviews common antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) methods and relevant issues concerning the advantages and disadvantages of each method. Although accurate, classic technologies used in clinical microbiology to profile antimicrobial susceptibility are time-consuming and relatively expensive. As a result, physicians often prescribe empirical antimicrobial therapies and broad-spectrum antibiotics. Although recently developed AST systems have shown advantages over traditional methods in terms of testing speed and the potential for providing a deeper insight into resistance mechanisms, extensive validation is required to translate these methodologies to clinical practice. With a continuous increase in antimicrobial resistance, additional efforts are needed to develop innovative, rapid, accurate, and portable diagnostic tools for AST. The wide implementation of novel devices would enable the identification of the optimal treatment approaches and the surveillance of antibiotic resistance in health, agriculture, and the environment, allowing monitoring and better tackling the emergence of AMR.

Abstract. The complete assessment of landslide susceptibility needs uniformly distributed detailed information on the territory. This information, which is related to the temporal occurrence of landslide phenomena and their causes, is often fragmented and heterogeneous. The present study evaluates the landslide susceptibility map of the Natural Archaeological Park of Matera (Southern Italy) (Sassi and area Rupestrian Churches sites). The assessment of the degree of "spatial hazard" or "susceptibility" was carried out by the spatial prediction regardless of the return time of the events. The evaluation model for the susceptibility presented in this paper is very focused on the use of innovative techniques of artificial intelligence such as Neural Network, Fuzzy Logic and Neuro-fuzzy Network. The method described in this paper is a novel technique based on a neuro-fuzzy system. It is able to train data like neural network and it is able to shape and control uncertain and complex systems like a fuzzy system. This methodology allows us to derive susceptibility maps of the study area. These data are obtained from thematic maps representing the parameters responsible for the instability of the slopes. The parameters used in the analysis are: plan curvature, elevation (DEM), angle and aspect of the slope, lithology, fracture density, kinematic hazard index of planar and wedge sliding and toppling. Moreover, this method is characterized by the network training which uses a training matrix, consisting of input and output training data, which determine the landslide susceptibility. The neuro-fuzzy method was integrated to a sensitivity analysis in order to overcome the uncertainty linked to the used membership functions. The method was compared to the landslide inventory map and was validated by applying three methods: a ROC (Receiver Operating Characteristic) analysis, a confusion matrix and a SCAI method. The developed neuro-fuzzy method showed a good performance in the determination of the landslide susceptibility map.

Abstract:
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS) for which both genetic and environmental risk factors have been identified. The strongest synergy among them exists between the MHC class II haplotype and infection with the Epstein Barr virus (EBV), especially symptomatic primary EBV infection (infectious mononucleosis) and elevated EBV-specific antibodies. In this review, we will summarize the epidemiological evidence that EBV infection is a prerequisite for MS development, describe altered EBV specific immune responses in MS patients, and speculate about possible pathogenic mechanisms for the synergy between EBV infection and the MS-associated MHC class II haplotype. We will also discuss how at least one of these mechanisms might explain the recent success of B cell-depleting therapies for MS. While a better mechanistic understanding of the role of EBV infection and its immune control during MS pathogenesis is required and calls for the development of innovative experimental systems to test the proposed mechanisms, therapies targeting EBV-infected B cells are already starting to be explored in MS patients.

Abstract:
In this work, we created a map of the susceptibility to landslides in GIS environment using neural network, Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) multicriteria analysis method and fuzzy methodology, producing five categories (levels) of risk. Subsequently, starting from this map, we identified (fuzzy methodology) the areas of the road’s network most exposed to landslide risk also using remote sensing techniques (classification and segmentation techniques) overlapped on the street map. This system therefore provides us the level of attention that affects the transport infrastructure investigated (a higher level of attention corresponds to a higher level of landslide risk). Once the risk map for a large area was identified, we focused on local monitoring of a part of it automatically selected by the GIS. The monitoring of this area was carried out through an innovative system (made by us) that allows to monitor landslide risk areas and to study landslide phenomena through the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Specifically, with this innovative solution, data are acquired thanks to an automated system of UAVs and wireless charging platforms (capable to acquired, to transmit and to store data); subsequently, the acquired data are stored automatically in a special platform that allows us to create the point cloud and 3D models of the investigated area (which in turn they are superimposed on the digital models created in previous monitoring), also allowing the creation of the land mass displacement’s sequence in a video. Finally, in relation to early warning, the system allows civil protection to be warned in the event of a landslide risk (start of new landslides or continuation of landslides that have already begun) which in this way will be able to warn the population also through social media.

Social media has turned into a fertile ground for COVID-19 fake news. The present study aims to provide a hypothetical and empirical background to elucidate the psychological and behavioral aspects of information processing and susceptibility of sharing the fake news, with especial reference to COVID-19 news on social media. The study explores the relation between the select variables and heuristic and systematic information processing. Grounded on prior studies, this paper presents a research model to address susceptibility of sharing the fake news on social media, and identifies characteristics that may be more susceptible than others for sharing fake news on social media including Sharing Motivation (SM), Social Media Fatigue (SMF), Feel Good Factor (FGF), Fear of Missing out (FoMO), News Characteristics (NC) and five Big Personality Traits. The data collected from 244 respondents was analyzed with the help of IBM SPSS 23, using descriptive and statistical test, including means, standard deviations, and correlation analysis conducted. Correlation exploration was utilized to study the association between the select variables and systematic and heuristic information processing and susceptibility of sharing the fake news on social media. The findings show several factors contribute to information processing in both modes. The study confirms that heuristic processing is significantly associated with susceptibility of sharing fake news. The research adds to the media studies, behavioral and psychological disciplines, as it examines the relationships between the select variables and the systematic and heuristic information processing and COVID-19 fake news on social media. The present investigation makes an innovative and original contribution to media studies by exploring the relationship between select variables and susceptibility for sharing fake news on social media. The study presents a research model to identify the influence of select variables on information processing and the susceptibility to falling prey to fake news on social media and contributes to the domain to media studies.

Abstract Coastal regions are generally conceived as highly advanced in terms of socioeconomic and innovative development. Acting as international contact zones, coastal agglomerations are described as gateways for absorbing new knowledge, technologies, business cultures, etc. Yet, this perception is based on studies of large coastal cities and agglomerations. In our study, we focus on coastalization effects manifested in rural settlements and evaluate the innovation capability of the economies of coastal rural areas. The research scope covers 13 municipalities of the Leningrad region, including 134 rural settlements. The research methodology is structured into three main blocks: the evaluation of the human capital, assessment of the favorability of the entrepreneurial environment, and analysis of susceptibility of local economies to innovations. The list of analyzed innovation dynamics parameters includes the geospatial data for the distribution of population, companies and individual entrepreneurs, localization of specialized support and innovation infrastructure, sectoral analysis of the economic structure, digitalization aspects, et cetera. The data coverage period is 2010–2019 with variations depending on the availability of individual indicators. The research findings reveal particular features of the countryside as compared to urban settlements. Strong asymmetries are observed between the development of rural settlements cross-influenced by coastalization, near-metropolitan location, and national border proximity.

The increasing prevalence and severity of pediatric food allergies (FA) demands innovative preventive and therapeutic strategies. Emerging evidence suggests a pivotal role for the gut microbiome in modulating susceptibility to FA. Studies have demonstrated that alteration of gut microbiome could precede FA, and that particular microbial community structures early in life could influence also the disease course. The identification of gut microbiome features in pediatric FA patients is driving new prevention and treatment approaches. This review is focused on the potential role of the gut microbiome as a target for FA prevention and treatment.
