    This research investigates the effect of diet and mindful eating on emotional intelligence. Our first hypothesis states that vegetarian and non.vegetarian diets can influence emotional intelligence differently. The second hypothesis states that mindful eating affects emotional intelligence. Our sample consisted of 90 participants divided into three groups depending on their country of origin — Moroccan, Indian and Iraqi. The results demonstrated that the influence of diet on emotional intelligence was not statistically significant. We found a positive correlation between mindful eating and emotional intelligence in all the groups

    We studied the psychological factors associated with the efficiency of online learning by using a sample of students from a Russian university (Ural Federal University). We used as a point of departure the idea of adaptive learning, which assumes that academic success in an online course is associated with the characteristics of cognitive, emotional, volitional and other areas of a student’s personality. The resulting general linear model includes such factors as internal motivation, external motivation, intelligence, personal qualities, training experience and openness to experience, which have an extremely low proportion of explained variance — 3 %. Based on the above research, the key conclusion was made that a successful student is successful in any training format. In other words, the focus of search for improving the efficiency of online learning should be not only on the psychological characteristics of those students who are successful in the online format, but also on improving the pedagogical design of the online course.This study was funded by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (grant № 17‑36‑01069)

    Background: The case we are reporting is about one of the rare manifestations of severe combined immunodeficiency, Omenn syndrome (OS). Case presentation: A 43-days-old female presented with thick diffuse erythrodermic scaly ichthyosiform lesions on the scalp, face, and trunk since birth. lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, and growth retardation as well as eosinophilia and increased serum IgE levels. A pregnancy was planned for an allograft of bone marrow, but the procedure was not carried out due to a persistent post-covid pneumopathy with bilateral parenchymal condensation that resulted in death. Conclusion: This case report intends to incite clinicians to be alert to this possible diagnosis and not to underrate an immune deficiency in the case of neonatal erythroderma

    Optimal scheduling in a Collaborative robot environment and evaluating workforce dynamic performance

    After the emergence of industry 4.0 and the continuous technological development, it became vital for industries to transfer mass production expertise into personalized products in small batches. Clients became more aware of their needs and start basing their decision on specific quality requirements, lower cost, and the shortest delivery date. This is where collaborative robots intervene, these structures can work hand in hand with operators and take charge of hard, long, or repetitive tasks in a fast, precise, and robust manner. Although these structures have great potential, they lack flexibility and adaptability, these aspects can only be found in humans. The workforce competencies and performance are the ultimate precursors to any proper industrial evolution. Performances and competencies workforce must go further than the standard definitions attributed to them. This paper addresses the scheduling problem, our proposition relies on the assumption that the final programs attributed to collaborative robots can be divided into standard sub- programs. Based on the similarities between sub-programs can help propose a schedule that reduces significantly wasted time developing new programs or going from one program to another. This paper will also address the dissociation between human and robots’ performances in a context where humans and robots work in very dependent proximity. Finally, we will also propose a new definition of workload performance while highlighting its dynamic aspect in terms of fatigue, motivation, and the correlation between repetition and the learning process
