Macht sich strafbar, wer den Satz „from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free“ verwendet? In aller Regel nicht. Der Slogan ist vieldeutig und Gerichte müssen bei mehreren Deutungsmöglichkeiten wegen der Meinungsfreiheit genau begründen, warum allein die strafbare Interpretation plausibel sein soll. Er kennzeichnet auch nicht die Hamas, denn verschiedene Akteure verwenden ihn seit Jahrzenten bis heute.

Authors: Asdar Muhammad Risqal Pratama , Daud Anwar , Basir
Published: March 2024

Microplastics are small particles <5 mm in size that come from plastic waste. The large amount of plastic waste produced every day, most of which is thrown into the sea, means that the presence of microplastics continues to increase and is widespread almost throughout the sea surface, including Jeneponto Regency. This is very risky for contamination of feather shellfish which are often consumed by local people, so it is very dangerous for health. Therefore, it is necessary to identify microplastics in feather shellfish in Garassikang Village. Aim to determine the characteristics of microplastics in feather clams found on the coast of Garassikang Village, Jeneponto Regency in 2023. This type of quantitative research uses a descriptive approach with laboratory tests. The population is all edible shellfish obtained directly in the coastal waters of Garassikang Village, Jeneponto Regency, with a total sample of 15 feather shellfish obtained using a purposive sampling technique. The average abundance of microplastics in feather clams was 512.53 particles/kg with a microplastic size of 0.027 mm - 6,800 mm. There are 2 types of microplastics found, namely fibers and fragments, and there are 3 types of microplastic colors, namely blue, red and transparent. There are microplastics in shellfish found on the coast of Garassikang village. Of the 15 shellfish samples, 12 shellfish contained microplastics, this needs to be investigated in more depth regarding how dangerous exposure to microplastics is to human health using the FTIR test.

The bifid mandibular canal in three-dimensional radiography: morphologic and quantitative characteristics
Authors: Von Arx Thomas , Bornstein Michael M
Published: March 2024

The mandibular canal is a prominent anatomical structure and it is of great clinical importance since it contains the inferior alveolar nerve. The clinician is advised to proceed cautiously in the vicinity of the mandibular canal to avoid any damage to its neurovascular content. Based on observations in dry mandibles, in panoramic radiographs, and recently in three-dimensional radiography, various anatomical variations of the mandibular canals have been described. One such variant is the so-called bifid mandibular canal (BMC). Embryologically, multiple canals develop and subsequently fuse to form a single mandibular canal; however, occasionally fusion fails or is incomplete resulting in one or multiple BMCs. Clinically relevant issues with regard to the BMCs include hemorrhagic or neurological disorders following damage to these aberrant canals. This literature review presents morphological and quantitative data about BMCs from studies using three-dimensional radiography, i.e. CT and/or CBCT. The reported frequencies of BMCs per patient ranged from 9.8 - 66.5% and per mandibular side from 7.7 - 46.5%. Gender, age or side predilection is currently inconclusive with regard to the occurrence of BMCs. Various types of BMCs have been described in the literature, such as retromolar, dental, forward, or buccolingual canals. BMCs may originate from the mandibular canal along its entire course, but bifurcation appears to be more frequent in the posterior compared to the anterior canal portions. Mean BMC length was reported to range from 10.2 - 16.9 mm, and mean BMC diameter from 0.9 - 2.3 mm. In conclusion, the presence of a BMC must be taken into consideration for treatment planning and anesthetic, endodontic, or surgical interventions in the mandible.

Published: March 2024

The purpose of this questionnaire-based survey was to evaluate the attitudes of the undergraduate dental students towards elders. The 14-item Geriatric attitudes scale (GAS) questionnaire, along with a 9-item questionnaire with specific questions on the current geriatric dental curriculum, confidence, and preference in treating the elderly patients were administered to the undergraduate dental students (3rd bachelor, 1st master, and 2nd master) in the four Swiss university dental schools. Mean GAS scores were calculated and inter- and intra-group differences were analyzed with ANOVA and post hoc tests (level of significance set at α=0.05). Responses to the 9-item questionnaire were reported descriptively. Further analyses were performed to evaluate the effect of demographic factors on the GAS scores. 305 students (meanage: 25.8±4.0y) participated in this study. The mean overall GAS score of the students was 3.5±0.4. There were no significant differences in the GAS scores between the centers [F(3, 300)=2.266, p=0.081] or between the year of training [F(2, 301)=1.884, p=0.154]. Demographic factors did not influence the GAS scores. Students considered geriatric dentistry as an important part of their dental undergraduate education. The current geriatric curriculum was perceived to be on an adequate level. Hands-on experience in treating geriatric patients in the undergraduate curriculum was positively opinionated, and mobile dental services for elders with limited access to care was considered a good solution. In conclusion, the attitudes of the Swiss undergraduate dental students towards an elderly patient seem acceptable but could still be improved.

Application of Ensemble Learning and Feature Selection Models in Energy Expenditure Estimation of Fitness Tracking Devices
Authors: Wei Hefan
Published: March 2024

The use of fitness tracking devices to monitor energy expenditure (EE) is becoming increasingly popular among consumers. However, the accuracy of EE estimation still needs to be improved due to the lack of accurate data filtering and more efficient data analysis models. To address this issue, we designed an energy expenditure estimation (EEE) model based on smart tracking devices. This paper proposes an algorithm for data reconstruction called PC-DF-RFECV: firstly, Pearson correlation analysis (PC) is used for initial data screening, then Feature Derivation (DF) is applied to reconstruct new features, and finally, the Recursive Feature Elimination algorithm based on cross-validation (RFECV) is employed to select the new features. Furthermore, the EEE model adopts a weighted average (Wei-Voting) strategy to enhance the robustness of the model by integrating the predictions of multiple base learners (XGBoost, LightGBM, Random Forest). During algorithm optimization, a Bayesian hyperparameter optimization technique is employed to fine-tune the model's hyperparameters. Empirical findings indicate that the EEE model, when applied to the dataset collected from motion tracking devices, attains an score of 0.9985, of 1.033, and of 0.865. These results demonstrate superior performance compared to current state-of-the-art research and conventional algorithms including random forests, gradient boosting, and bagging.

Eastern Middle Sweden, Finland and beyond in the Late Vendel and Early Viking periods
Authors: Callmer Johan
Published: March 2024

The Scandinavian interest in the Eurasian fur trade started in the early 8th century. Contacts between the Baltic Finns and the Permian groups in the Volga-Kama-Vjatka river region was the impetus for these contacts. The trail is seen in distinct Nevolino belt fittings, chain holders with twin horse heads and glass beads emanating from the East. Scandinavian fur traders established close interaction with the Baltic Finns in what is today Finland and probably Northern Estonia increased from AD 700. Scandinavian glass beads and swords were in use in South-Western Finland in the early 8th c. Finnish A III pottery emerged in Eastern Middle Sweden already in the late 7th c., both as imports proper but also as local products made by Finnish women. In this early phase of interaction personal contacts obviously played a major role. After c. AD 860 these connections changed. The Baltic Finns expressed their cultural identity in a more exposed way. Scandinavian traders turned their attention to the expanding market based on Birka and the Rus’. From c. AD 860 territorial claims in the East were accentuated, leading to the later, bigger Rus’.

Fraudsters increasingly exploit unauthorized credit card information for financial gain, targeting un-suspecting users, especially as financial institutions expand their services to semi-urban and rural areas. This, in turn, has continued to ripple across society, causing huge financial losses and lowering user trust implications for all cardholders. Thus, banks cum financial institutions are today poised to implement fraud detection schemes. Five algorithms were trained with and without the application of the Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) to assess their performance. These algorithms included Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Naïve Bayes (NB), Support Vector Machines (SVM), and Logistic Regression (LR). The methodology was implemented and tested through an API using Flask and Streamlit in Python. Before applying SMOTE, the RF classifier outperformed the others with an accuracy of 0.9802, while the accuracies for LR, KNN, NB, and SVM were 0.9219, 0.9435, 0.9508, and 0.9008, respectively. Conversely, after the application of SMOTE, RF achieved a prediction accuracy of 0.9919, whereas LR, KNN, NB, and SVM attained accuracies of 0.9805, 0.9210, 0.9125, and 0.8145, respectively. These results highlight the effectiveness of combining RF with SMOTE to enhance prediction accuracy in credit card fraud detection.

Published: March 2024

In the educational context, online technologies are rapidly gaining acceptance. Understanding and applying educational plans and methods of learning through new technologies will be essential through social media. This paper will look at how students’ collaborative learning behavior and learner performance can help to address the perceived issues with using social networks. As the research framework, this paper used a version of TAM and DOI, as well as quantitative data collection and analysis methods, surveying 149 university students using stratified random sampling. Thereafter, using structural equation modeling, the data was statistically examined (SEM). The results showed that Perceived Enjoyment and Perceived Usefulness were significant determinants of working in a team and learning via social media. However, it was discovered that Perceived Ease Of Use and intention to use social websites and collaborative learning have a negative association. Furthermore, the research reveals that three elements, Intentions To Use Social Media, Collaborative Learning, and Academic Performance, have substantial correlations. In applying this technique to business education, this study examines the educational benefits, pedagogical implications, and research constraints. These ideas are fleshed out, along with suggestions for future study directions. Keywords: Perceived enjoyment, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, intention to use social media, collaborative learning, academic performance
The Effect of Business Ethics Education on Business Students’ CSR Perception: Evidence from Vietnam
Authors: Nguyen Luu Thi
Published: March 2024

As prospective future business leaders, business student attitudes toward corporate social responsibility (CSR) is vital. Therefore, business schools and institutions have a responsibility to produce graduates who act in an ethical and socially responsible way when they practice business. Although business ethics courses are compulsorily required by both international accrediting organizations AACSB and ACBSP, the effectiveness of such courses is often questioned. This research uses survey data collected from business students of a private business university in Vietnam to provide empirical evidence on the effect of participation in business ethics classes on students’ perceptions of CSR. The results show that after joining the course, students tend to have a higher level of general CSR perception. However, when assessing the two separate factors of CSR perception (i.e., perceptions of short-term versus long-term responsibilities), the effect of business ethics education on long-term responsibility perception is not significant, while the effect on short-term responsibility perception remains significant. The findings provide recommendations for business schools, accrediting organizations, and the students themselves to review and refine teaching syllabi and methodology so that the teaching and learning of business ethics at business schools could achieve a higher impact and create more authentic and sustainable values. Keywords: CSR perception, Business ethics education, business education, ACBSP
