Published: April 2023

Abstract. A five-channel fluorescence lidar was developed for the study of atmospheric
aerosol. The fluorescence spectrum induced by 355 nm laser emission is
analyzed in five spectral intervals using interference filters. Central
wavelengths and the widths of these five interference filters are,
respectively, as follows: 438 and 29, 472 and 32, 513 and 29, 560 and 40, and 614 and 54 nm. The relative
calibration of these channels has been performed using a tungsten–halogen
lamp with a color temperature of 2800 K. This new lidar system was operated during summer–autumn 2022, when strong forest fires occurred in the Moscow
region and generated a series of smoke plumes analyzed in this study. Our
results demonstrate that, for urban aerosol, the maximal fluorescence
backscattering is observed in a 472 nm channel. For the smoke, the maximum is
shifted toward longer wavelengths, and the fluorescence backscattering
coefficients in 472, 513 and 560 nm channels have comparable values.
Thus, from the analysis of the ratios of fluorescence backscattering in
available channels, we show that it is possible to identify smoke layers.
The particle classification based on single-channel fluorescence capacity
(ratio of the fluorescence backscattering to the elastic one) has limitations
at high relative humidity (RH). The fluorescence capacity indeed
decreases when water uptake of particles enhances the elastic scattering.
However, the spectral variation of fluorescence backscattering does not
exhibit any dependence on RH and can be therefore applied to aerosol
identification.

Abstract. The Hunga Tonga–Hunga Ha′apai volcano eruption was a unique event that caused many atmospheric phenomena around the globe. In this study, we investigate the atmospheric gravity waves in the mesosphere/lower-thermosphere (MLT) launched by the volcanic explosion in the Pacific, leveraging multistatic meteor radar observations from the Chilean Observation Network De Meteor Radars (CONDOR) and the Nordic Meteor Radar Cluster in Fennoscandia. MLT winds are computed using a recently developed 3DVAR+DIV algorithm. We found eastward- and westward-traveling gravity waves in the CONDOR zonal and meridional wind measurements, which arrived 12 and 48 h after the eruption, and we found one in the Nordic Meteor Radar Cluster that arrived 27.5 h after the volcanic detonation. We obtained observed phase speeds for the eastward great circle path at both locations of about 250 m s−1, and they were 170–150 m s−1 for the opposite propagation direction. The intrinsic phase speed was estimated to be 200–212 m s−1. Furthermore, we identified a potential lamb wave signature in the MLT winds using 5 min resolved 3DVAR+DIV retrievals.
Brief communication: Measuring and modelling the ice thickness of the Grigoriev ice cap (Kyrgyzstan) and comparison with global datasets
Authors: Van Tricht Lander , Paice Chloë Marie , Rybak Oleg , Huybrechts Philippe
Published: April 2023

Abstract. An accurate ice thickness distribution is crucial for correct projections of the future state of an ice mass. However, measuring the ice thickness with an in-situ system is time-consuming and not scalable. Therefore, models have been developed that estimate the ice thickness without direct measurements. In this study, we reconstruct the ice thickness of the Grigoriev ice cap, Kyrgyzstan, from in-situ observations and the yield stress method. We compare the results with data from 6 global ice thickness datasets composed without the use of our local measurements. The results highlight shortcomings of these generic datasets and demonstrate the importance of local observations for accurate representations of the ice thickness.

Published: April 2023

Abstract. In an effort led by the University Centre in Svalbard (UNIS), with support from the Norwegian Meteorological Institute (MET Norway), the Isfjorden Weather Information Network (IWIN) is under development in the Isfjorden region, central Svalbard. The network substantially expands upon the relatively sparse existing operational network of weather stations and consists of compact and cost-efficient all-in-one weather stations permanently installed on lighthouses around Isfjorden and onboard small tourist cruise ships trafficking the fjord from the spring to the autumn. All data from the network are freely available online in near real-time via MET Norway’s data portals (https://doi.org/10.21343/ebrw-w846). The IWIN data are highly valuable for scientific purposes such as atmospheric boundary layer research, validation and development of numerical weather prediction models and assimilation in these, as well as planning and safe conduction of outdoor activities in the region.
The story of a summit nucleus: hillslope boulders and their effect on erosional patterns and landscape morphology in the Chilean Coastal Cordillera
Authors: Lodes Emma , Scherler Dirk , van Dongen Renee , Wittmann Hella
Published: April 2023

Abstract. While landscapes are broadly sculpted by tectonics and climate, on a
catchment scale, sediment size can regulate hillslope denudation rates and
thereby influence the location of topographic highs and valleys. In this
work, we used in situ 10Be cosmogenic radionuclide analysis to measure the denudation rates of bedrock, boulders, and soil in three granitic landscapes with different climates in Chile. We hypothesize that bedrock and boulders affect differential denudation by denuding more slowly than the surrounding soil; the null hypothesis is that no difference exists between soil and boulder or bedrock denudation rates. To evaluate denudation rates, we present a simple model that assesses differential denudation of boulders and the surrounding soil by evaluating boulder protrusion height against a two-stage erosion model and measured 10Be concentrations of boulder tops. We found that hillslope bedrock and boulders consistently denude more slowly than soil in two out of three of our field sites, which have a humid and a semi-arid climate: denudation rates range from ∼5 to 15 m Myr−1 for bedrock and boulders and from ∼8 to 20 m Myr−1 for soil. Furthermore, across a bedrock ridge at the humid site, denudation rates increase with increasing fracture density. At our lower-sloping field sites, boulders and bedrock appear to be similarly immobile based on similar 10Be concentrations. However, in the site with a Mediterranean climate, steeper slopes allow for higher denudation rates for both soil and boulders (∼40–140 m Myr−1), while the bedrock denudation rate remains low (∼22 m Myr−1). Our findings suggest that unfractured bedrock patches and large hillslope boulders affect landscape morphology by inducing differential denudation in lower-sloping landscapes. When occurring long enough, such differential denudation should lead to topographic highs and lows controlled by bedrock exposure and hillslope sediment size, which are both a function of fracture density. We further examined our field sites for fracture control on landscape morphology by comparing fracture, fault, and stream orientations, with the hypothesis that bedrock fracturing leaves bedrock more susceptible to denudation. Similar orientations of fractures, faults, and streams further support the idea that tectonically induced bedrock fracturing guides fluvial incision and accelerates denudation by reducing hillslope sediment size.

Arguments for the Rise of Artificial Intelligence Art: Does AI Art Have Creativity, Motivation, Self-awareness and Emotion?
Authors: Liu Bai
Published: April 2023

With the advent of artificial intelligence (AI), 'AI art' was born, and the concept of 'AI aesthetics' was derived. Despite the emergence of this new concept in art theory, the question of whether artworks created by AI have artistic and aesthetic value still needs to be debated in academia. While new concepts related to AI art are emerging, the discussion of whether a sustainable and critical theory system can be constructed in the field of computers and art, which is most closely related to it, ought to be focused on AI itself to explore whether it possesses similar characteristics of creativity and emotion as traditional art creation processes. This paper will first analyze the origins and possibilities of AI art and then explore the enormous impact of the rise of AI art on current and future human society in 4 dimensions: creativity, motivation, self-awareness, and emotion.

Research on the influence of social relations on social enterprise performance: The mediating role of business model innovation
Authors: Wu Jianlin , Cai Wenhao ,   School of Management, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei 230026, China
Published: April 2023

With the development of the social economy, social problems are becoming increasingly prominent. Solving social problems only by the government and public welfare organizations is difficult. Social enterprises offer opportunities for sustainable solutions to social problems; however, social enterprises generally face the problem of poor performance. Although previous studies provide some clues on the impact of social relations on social enterprise performance, whether social relations impact performance remains unknown, and the mechanism remains unclear. Based on resource-based theory, our study proposes the role of business model innovation as the intervening mechanism. Market information management capability enhances the positive effect of social relations on business model innovation. The findings from a survey of 198 Chinese social enterprises show that social relations have a significant positive impact on economic performance and social performance and that business model innovation plays a mediating role between social relations and performance. Market information management capability plays a positive moderating role between social relations and business model innovation. The research results enrich the research on the influencing factors of social enterprise performance, reveal the influencing mechanism and boundary conditions of social relations on social enterprise performance, and propose effective practical measures for improving social enterprise performance.

Published: April 2023

Relevance: Currently, in the world, including Kazakhstan, the increasing number of new cervical cancer cases among women of reproductive age is a socio-demographic problem. The increase in cervical cancer incidence among young women, the high prevalence of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection among young sexually active women, the lack of screening programs for the early detection of cervical cancer in young women, the need to take urgent measures to increase awareness of young women about risk factors for cervical cancer and methods of prevention and determined the relevance of this study.
The study aimed to estimate the awareness, identify risk factors for cervical cancer, and assess the state of reproductive health of young women of Almaty by questioning.
Methods: The article presents an analytical study of the intermediate results of a survey of young women aged 18 to 32 years and living in Almaty. Participants received full information on the upcoming survey. The questionnaire collected information on socio-demographic data, awareness of cervical cancer prevention, and women’s gynecological history. The questionnaire contained 30 questions in total and took 10 minutes to complete.
Results: Among young women in Almaty, low awareness of primary and secondary prevention of cervical cancer was revealed in all age groups. The most common risk factors for cervical cancer among young women in Almaty were an early onset of sexual activity, smoking, and hormonal contraceptive uptake.
Conclusion: The survey showed the problem of low awareness of girls about cervical cancer and the risk factors for developing cervical cancer. Based on these data, we can state the need for educational work on these issues among young people.

Authors: Kultaev A. , Zakiryarov I. , Abdieva D. , Imambetova A. , Akhmetbayeva A.
Published: April 2023

Relevance: Thyroid cancer (TC) is the most common oncological pathology of the endocrine organs.
According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), 567,233 new cases of thyroid cancer were registered worldwide in 2018. According to IARC, in 2018, 486 new cases were detected in Kazakhstan, which accounted for 1.4% of all cases in Asian countries.
TC ranks 10th in the overall structure of cancer incidence globally; TC accounts for 3.1% of all cases of primary malignant tumors. Despite the relatively low incidence, the problems of pathogenesis have been extremely relevant in recent decades due to the increasing prevalence of thyroid cancer.
Samsung Medison introduced AI-based S-Detect to improve sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy in the differential diagnosis of thyroid masses.
The study aimed to explore the S-Detect program capacities in differential diagnostics of thyroid masses.
Methods: 75 patients with focal lesions in the thyroid gland were examined using the Samsung Medison RS85 ultrasound machine equipped with the S-Detect program; additionally, Doppler and non-Doppler methods were used.
Results: The S-Detect program made it possible to make a correct diagnosis in 97% of patients (73 of 75), which was confirmed by the results of morphological verification (histology, cytology). The sonoelastography method showed correct results in 91% of patients (68 of 75).
Conclusion: The use of the S-Detect program for thyroid examination positively affects the diagnostic value of ultrasound in the differential diagnosis of thyroid masses, increasing the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of diagnosis, as well as avoiding redundant biopsies.

Authors: Reutovich M. , Krasko O. , Ivanov A.
Published: April 2023

Relevance: Given the high biological aggressiveness of infiltrative gastric cancer warranting a need for a multimodal approach to its radical treatment employing adjuvant perfusion thermochemotherapy (HIPEC) and systemic adjuvant polychemotherapy, the goal of the present study was to assess the efficacy and expediency of such an approach.
The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a combination of HIPEC and systemic adjuvant polychemotherapy in patients radically operated on for infiltrative forms of gastric cancer pT4a-bN0-3M0.
Methods: The study examined the long-term results of radical treatment for gastric cancer in 141 patients (pT4a-bN0-3M0, Borrmann type III-IV). Of them, 18 patients underwent a multimodal treatment, including radical surgery in combination with HIPEC and systemic adjuvant polychemotherapy (ACT) (oxaliplatin 100 mg/m2 (on day 1 of the cycle), capecitabine 1,000 mg/m2 or tegafur 10-15 mg/kg (2 times per day, on days 1-14 of the cycle, with a 7-day break between cycles, 8 cycles) – HIPEC/ACT group. For comparison purposes, we used the data on 55 radically operated patients (surgery control) and 68 other patients who underwent radical surgery in combination with HIPEC (cisplatin 50 mg/m2 + doxorubicin 50 mg/m2, 420C, one hour). The long-term treatment results were evaluated using competing risks analysis, the Kaplan-Meier multiplier method, and multivariate analysis (Cox and Fine-Gray models).
Results: The multimodal treatment group showed a decrease in unfavorable outcomes associated with tumor progression – β = -2.14;
RR 0.12 (95% CI 0.04-0.38), р<0.001, as well as a decrease in the risk of carcinomatosis – β = -1.99; RR 0.14 (95% CI 0.04-0.44), р<0,001; and improvement in 5-year survival rates (as compared with the control groups), viz.: adjusted survival – 81.9±9.5% (р=0.003); progression-free survival – 82.2±9.3% (р<0.001); and dissemination-free survival – 81.9±9.5% (р<0.001).
Conclusion: It is advisable to supplement the standard approach for infiltrative gastric cancer (radical surgery and systemic polychemotherapy) with perfusion HIPEC to prolong the remission of the tumor process.

Published: April 2023

Relevance: Kidney functions in treating acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) undergo serious effects, especially in elderly patients. Chemotherapeutic drugs used to prepare for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) inevitably affect elderly patients’ kidney function. Moreover, involutive changes in the kidneys can physiologically decrease kidney function.
The study aimed to evaluate kidney function in an elderly patient with AML after HSCT.
Methods: The article describes a clinical case of AML in an elderly patient who underwent allogeneic HSCT.
Results: We analyzed the dynamics of the functional state from the moment of registration of AML to +100 days after HSCT. During the entire follow-up period, we did not detect any renal dysfunction in the elderly patient. Despite the HSCT and the effects of nephrotoxic drugs in an elderly patient + 100 days after HSCT, kidney function was preserved.
Conclusion: The described case highlights the importance of maintaining renal function in elderly patients after HSCT and long-term renal monitoring.

Jedną z podstawowych potrzeb człowieka, a zarazem niezbywalną wartością jest poczucie bezpieczeństwa. Niedostateczne zaspokojenie tej potrzeby utrudnia, a niekiedy blokuje jego rozwój i realizację celów życiowych. Zjawiskiem, które może zakłócać dobrostan jednostki jest doświadczanie i postrzeganie przez nią zachowań agresywnych i przemocowych występujących w środowisku jej funkcjonowania. W społeczności więziennej problem agresji i przemocy nabiera szczególnego znaczenia ze względu na warunki izolacyjne oraz cechy osobowe osób inkarcerowanych, pracowników i funkcjonariuszy Służby Więziennej, a także z uwagi na czasoprzestrzeń, w której zachodzą wzajemne interakcje pomiędzy tymi podmiotami. Kluczowym narzędziem zapobiegającym zjawiskom przemocy w przestrzeni penitencjarnej są akty normatywne, które wyznaczają ramy i zasady współegzystencji funkcjonariuszy Służby Więziennej oraz osadzonych. W artykule wskazano regulacje prawne właściwe dla omawianej tematyki, przedstawiając wykładnię najważniejszych przepisów oraz stawiając wnioski de lege lata i de lege ferenda.

Published: April 2023

Türkiye’de ve dünyada uluslararası taşımacılık modları arasında en fazla tercih edilen taşıma modu, denizyolu taşımacılığıdır. Dünya ticaretinin önemli bir kısmı deniz yoluyla yapılmaktadır. Deniz yolunun diğer taşıma modlarına göre daha fazla tercih edilmesinin nedeni; düşük maliyetli olması ve büyük miktarda malların kolay taşınmasıdır. Ayrıca deniz yoluyla taşınan malzemeler hem üretim hem de nihai kullanım ürünlerini kapsamaktadır. Maliyet avantajı nedeniyle tercih edilen deniz yolu taşımacılığının uluslararası ticarette kullanılması, ekonomik büyüme üzerinde de etkilidir. Çalışmada Türkiye’de deniz yoluyla gerçekleşen ihracat ve ithalatın ekonomik büyüme ile olan ilişkisi incelenmiştir. Bu amaçla ARDL sınır testi uygulanmıştır. Türkiye için 2013-2021 yılları arasındaki verilerinden hareketle ekonomik büyüme, deniz yoluyla ihracat, deniz yoluyla ithalat arasında uzun dönemli ilişki tespit edilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre deniz yoluyla ihracat ile ekonomik büyüme arasında pozitif, denizyoluyla ithalat ile ekonomik büyüme arasında ise negatif yönlü bir ilişki saptanmıştır. Kısa dönem katsayılarının uzun dönem katsayıları ile tutarlı olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Türkiye ekonomisi için test edilen modelde, uzun dönemde uluslararası ticaretin denizyoluyla taşınmasının ekonomik büyüme üzerinde etkisi olduğu sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.

The article provides a comparative analysis of the approaches related to contributory negligence of the injured causing the occurrence or aggravation of the injury in the Polish law and in the common law system. The article discusses the development of this institution, differences and similarities with special emphasis on the latter as peculiar to the systems that evolved from such distant sources as well as rules according to which the occurrence and degree of contribution is established. The basis for deliberations is the legislation of England and Wales under which this institution developed, from a chronological perspective, for the first time. However, certain American, Canadian and Australian approaches have also been discussed against this background. The article addresses important issues, though rarely debated in the Polish legal literature, and constitutes an important source of knowledge for legal scholars providing professional insights and prompting both axiological and purely practical deliberations. em

The patient was a 75-year-old woman who presented with gross hematuria for two days. Her medical history included cervical cancer, stage IV treated with pelvic radiation therapy (RT) 10 years ago, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. The patient visited the emergency department of our hospital on May 29, 2016, and was hospitalized for further evaluation. Cystoscopy on the 2nd day after admission revealed hemorrhagic cystitis. Transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) was performed on the 4th day after admission. The pathology report revealed acute and chronic bladder inflammation and bleeding. The patient was discharged on the 8th day after admission. However, the patient developed lower abdominal pain, gross hematuria, and fecaluria on the 10th postoperative day. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) and gastrointestinal tract (GI) series were performed, all of which showed an ileum-vesical fistula. Exploratory laparotomy, resection of the fistula and ileum, and bladder repair, were performed on June 17, 2016, fifteen days after her first operation. The surgeries were successful and uneventful. Pathological examination revealed a diverticulum and ulcer with transmural mixed acute and chronic inflammation. Unfortunately, the patient developed intraperitoneal bladder perforation on the 7th postoperative day. After adequate abdominal drainage and cystoscopy-assisted blood clot evacuation, she was discharged from the hospital on the 36th postoperative day. This article discusses the pathophysiology of enterovesical fistula, risk factors, common symptoms, diagnosis and treatment, and the management of surgical complications. Clinicians should keep this clinical scenario in mind if the patient has gross hematuria combined with a history of pelvic RT. This combination of symptoms and history should suggest a differential diagnosis of enterovesical fistula and arrangement of GI series or abdominal CT should be performed as soon as possible to avoid delaying the diagnosis.

Published: April 2023

Background: Physiology of the mother, changes constantly during pregnancy including reduced HGS that is require for carrying the child after delivery. Activities of daily living require manual gripping tasks that require dynamic and static contractions. Predictor of upper extremity function is Hand Grip Strength and handgrip endurance. Screening of hand grip strength during antenatal care is still uncommon. Objectives: To compare static and dynamic hand grip endurance in pregnant females and to find its correlation with deep breathing. Material and Methods: The study recruited 40 participants of primi-gravida of 1st and 2nd trimester, between ages 20 and 35 years from SHALAMAR GYNAE OPD. The participants assigned to the groups (Group 1: with DB, Group 2: without DB) based on their trimester and gravidity. Static and dynamic endurance assessed using hand held dynamometer. Results: Mean Age ± Standard deviation for deep and non-deep breathing groups was 22.85 ± 2.30 and 24.05 ± 0.514. Age had negative little or low correlation with all variables of deep and non-deep breathing groups. Peak hand grip strength was moderately correlated with hand grip endurance with deep and non-deep breathing group (r = -0.628, r = -0.566 respectively). Static hand grip endurance was weakly correlated with peak hand grip strength in deep breathing group (r = -0.239) whereas static hand grip endurance had little, if any correlation with peak hand grip strength in deep breathing group (r = -0.165). Clinical implication: Management of hand grip strength and endurance improves general well being of pregnancy. By employing deep breathing exercises hand grip strength can be improved. Conclusion: Peak hand grip strength and endurance improved markedly in 2nd trimester with deep breathing. Deep breathing can improve peak hand grip endurance and peak hand grip strength in pregnancy with increasing trimester. Whereas static and dynamic hand grip endurance has insignificant effect in different trimester. Keywords: Pregnancy, deep breathing, trimester, endurance, peak grip endurance
