Published: June 2024

We would like to draw attention to a critical and emerging public health concern: the rise and global dissemination of Providencia spp. that harbor resistance genes, rendering them resistant to a broad spectrum of antibiotics. This matter marks a significant escalation in the ongoing battle against antibiotic resistance, a problem that the World Health Organization (WHO) has identified as one of the greatest threats to global health, food security, and advancement today. Herein, I want to primarily focus on a few studies published after 2020 that highlight the problem.
THE PERSPECTIVES OF WHOLE GENOME SEQUENCING IN STRENGTHENING THE OUTBREAK INVESTIGATIONS AND PUBLIC HEALTH SURVEILLANCE
Authors:   National Agency for Public Health, Chisinau, Republic of Moldova, Anton Maria
Published: June 2024

The resistance of microorganisms to antimicrobial drugs has become a seriuos issue that have been studied by both researchers as well as worldwide. It is reliably known that bacterial resistance has covered most antimicrobial drug groups, including last-line options. The highest resistance rates have been registered among microbial strains circulating within healthcare settings, which typically affect immunocompromised individuals. Rapid and accurate diagnosis would greatly contribute to limiting the spread of antimicrobial resistance. Thus, whole-genome sequencing (WGS) based technology brings new possibilities for elucidating resistance mechanisms, generating valuable results that, together with epidemiological data, allow for determining the link between isolates and the respective sources of infection, facilitating effective prevention and control measures. The use of WGS technology has contributed to the containment of numerous outbreaks caused by various pathogens, including viruses and bacteria. In addition to the advantages and significant contribution to the microbiological diagnosis of infections, the widespread implementation of whole-genome sequencing in clinical and public health laboratories faces a series of challenges related to infrastructure, technical limitations, as well as financial and human resources.

Background: Neisseria meningitidis (meningococcus) is an aerobic Gram-negative bacterium that accounts for a large number of bacterial meningitis cases worldwide. It is a strict human pathogen that is easily spread between hosts via aerosols. Although up to 15% of young adults and children carry meningococci in the nose and throat, few transient carriage cases develop into an actual case of meningitis. However, those that do frequently lead to the patient's death within one or two days after the onset of disease. To better study this illness and test possible treatments, meningitis animal models were developed throughout the years, from as early as 1976. Methods: We tried to find a stable and cost-effective animal meningitis model by querying the Pubmed database using two sets of keywords, going through all the results and choosing one protocol that best fit our needs. Results: After analysing 665 results, we comprised a list of 20 meningococcal meningitis murine models that had varying similarities between them, in the end deciding on the most efficient one. Conclusions: We chose and further described the model presented in the article „Inducing Meningococcal Meningitis Serogroup C in Mice via Intracisternal Delivery” by Chiara Pagliuca et al. in 2019.

HZO (Herpes Zoster Ophthalmicus) is defined as the reactivation of VZV (Varicella Zoster Virus) in the ophthalmic branch of the trigeminal nerve, leading to the appearance of well-demarcated erythematousvesicular lesions along the dermatome. Antiviral therapy is mandatory and preferably initiated within the first 72 hours of the rash onset, as it is most effective in preventing ocular involvement. Raising awareness of the importance of early diagnosis and management of herpes zoster ophthalmicus, with the involvement of an ophthalmologist is critical in limiting visual morbidity. We present a 40-year-old patient without significant medical history or background treatment, immunocompetent, whose symptoms began suddenly with a few erythematous- vesicular lesions on the left fronto-parietal scalp preceded by burning pain and hyperesthesia. At her first medical exam, she was recommended antiviral treatment with oral acyclovir and cortisone. She was admitted in our clinic 48 hours from the onset, with the extension of the lesions to the left forehead and peri-orbital, periorbital itching, left occipital hypoesthesia, and painful pre-, retro-auricular, and left latero-cervical lymphadenopathy. Intravenous antiviral treatment with acyclovir was started (7 days), and corticosteroid therapy was discontinued, with a favorable outcome. The particularity of this case lies in the reactivation of VZV in an immunocompetent patient, with a sudden onset and rapid progression. Additionally, the initial suspicion of diagnosis was not supported by the subsequent course of the disease, and corticosteroid treatment was discontinued. It is important to perform a differential diagnosis correlated with each stage of the disease to avoid inappropriate therapeutic management, which can have long-term adverse effects on the patient.
From the Common State: John Locke and the Climate Crisis
Authors: Hallenbrook Christopher R. , Reed Ryan
Published: June 2024

Climate change presents an unprecedented and existential threat. Proposals addressing this threat are criticized as impractical, costly, and/or beyond the legitimate scope of government power. We engage the latter critique by turning to John Locke's writings. Locke is both a proponent of limited government and profoundly influential on liberal democracies. He argues that government exists solely to enforce the natural law, and in doing so, protects life, liberty, and property. While Locke presents the Earth's resources as existing to be exploited, he limits property acquisition, arguing that natural law prohibits spoilage and requires that we leave ample, quality resources for others to utilize. We argue that since these caveats are part of the natural law, government is obligated to take comprehensive action addressing climate change.
International Compensation for Majority Cultural Loss
Authors: Silva Michael Da
Published: June 2024

This work examines the case for international compensation programs for reasonably justly formed majority cultures facing threats due to the ordinary functioning of globalization. While many “majority rights” claims cannot withstand scrutiny, standard liberal-democratic arguments for minority rights couched in concerns about cultural vulnerability now apply to several majority cultures. Parity of reasoning from the minority rights literature thus provides some reasonably justly formed majorities with claims to cultural protections. Domestic laws are unlikely to adequately protect against transnational threats, and some would threaten minority rights. But majority cultural vulnerability presents an injustice that international institutions should address. A well-designed international compensation scheme could maintain recognized benefits of globalization while compensating those who lose part of their cultural identity as a result. The following motivates and provides preliminary details on how to design a scheme.
Mechanical Analysis of Concrete Piers of Cross Sea Bridges under Freezing and Thawing Cycle Conditions and Wave Effects
Authors: Liu Shiyu
Published: June 2024

In high latitude areas, cross sea bridges are mainly subjected to freeze-thaw cycles and wave effects. However, due to the combined effects of wave and freeze-thaw cycles, there is not much mechanical analysis on the mechanical properties of cross sea bridge piers, and it is impossible to further strengthen the protective measures of concrete bridge piers fundamentally. Therefore, this paper using ABAQUS software, establishes a concrete bridge pier model and applies wave forces of different sizes to obtain the deformation and stress situation of the model. The model exhibits significant contraction in the middle and upper parts of the bridge pier due to the wave force. Due to the contraction, the axial length of the upper part increases, and the contraction amplitude at the bottom is not significant. A circular arc transition forms during the transition stage. In the significantly contracted part, the strain component increases with ground height, while the stress component initially increases and then decreases with ground height. In the base section, the strain stress components decrease first and then increase with the increase of ground height. The relationship between stress and strain components and wave force loads is that both stress and strain increase with the increase of wave force. Through the research results of this paper, it can optimize the design structure of concrete bridge piers, save costs, and improve safety. At the same time, this paper also summarizes several strengthening measures for concrete bridge piers to improve the durability of concrete.

DEVELOPMENT OF DRAG COEFFICIENT CORRELATIONS FOR CIRCULAR CYLINDER USING SYMBOLIC REGRESSION
Authors: Elghannay Husam A. , El Hasadi Yousef M. F.
Published: June 2024

The current paper provides a symbolic regression-based correlation for the drag coefficient for circular cylinder. The correlation is intended to be applicable over a wide range of flow regimes namely that range from the creeping flow regime up to the turbulent flow regime. Demo version of TuringBot symbolic regression software was used to develop different correlations using different sets of data. Experimental set of data was used in one run whereas steady numerical results for Reynolds number up to ~ 25 were used in generating a second set of formulas. In a different run data generated using Sucker and Brauwer (Wärme-und Stoffübertragung, 1975. 8: p. 149-158) correlation with uniform distribution in each order of magnitude was used to obtain a different set of correlations. The data was generated across five orders of magnitude of change of Re. Among all suggested formulas in the three cases, four correlations are considered for their simplicity and accuracy. The predictions of the correlations ranged from reasonably good to very good as compared to existing data and correlations. The relative error of the four developed correlations ranged between 9% and 16% when compared to experimental data for Reynolds numbers ranging from 1-105. In particular, one correlations was able to capture all the qualitative and quantitative changes in the drag coefficient over the different flow regimes for 0.15 < Re < 105. The relative error of this correlation was comparable to Sucker and Brauwer correlation.
Vibration damping using granular materials
Authors: Emtaubel Saleh S. H. , Senussi Galal Hamed , Rongong Jim A.
Published: June 2024

The aim of this paper is to study experimentally and numerically the effects of vibration amplitude and frequency on the performance of granular systems, with a view to optimizing their use in reducing vibrations typically experienced in machinery. Granular material systems are highly nonlinear systems and, as such, have multiple factors that will affect any experiment. This nature of granular material systems caused some discrepancies between experiment results and the simulations of mathematical models. However, the nonlinear aspect of particle damping restricted researching its theory, but the experiment research has largely surmounted that limitation. Experimental results suggested several damping theories. Accordingly, the ability to reduce vibrations of particle dampers depends on several external and internal factors. The two external factors are excitation amplitude and its frequency, whereas the internal factors are related to the properties of the particles and the size of the container. Other internal factors relate to the mass ratio of total particles to the primary structure and particle placement. The experimental work included developing a computational single degree of freedom (SDOF) model to provide better understanding of the effect of shock vibration and work with the future experimental work.
The paradigm of unity in prenatal education and pedagogy
Authors: Kornas-Biela Dorota
Published: June 2024

The traditional approach to the relation between parents and their prenatal child presents the child as a fetus, a mainly passive recipient of the mother’s vital biological resources. Contemporary prenatal psychology and pedagogy recognizes this relationship in a quite different perspective: the prenatal child is a member of the family and may be seen as an active member of the wider family as a community, extended to grandparents and other relatives. Between parents and their child in the womb exists a reciprocal relationship at a physiological (hormonal), psychological and spiritual level. The prenatal child communicates with the parents in different ways and reacts to their stimulation (acoustic, tactile, loco-motoric, chemo-receptive, thermo-receptive, and emotional). This dialogue of the parents and their prenatal child enriches each member of the family community. In this sense, the prenatal child is a gift and a challenge for the parents to develop their personality, social competences and spiritual life. The reflections presented in this paper fit the conception of the paradigm of unity applied into the area of prenatal education and prenatal pedagogy as a new pedagogical subdiscipline.
Rodzice jako uczestnicy procesu oceny funkcjonalnej
Authors: Amilkiewicz-Marek Agnieszka
Published: June 2024

The presented article is of an empirical nature. The presented data indicate that it is crucial for a child’s development that a teacher cooperates with his or her parent when learning about the student’s needs and capabilities, as well as when support is already provided, and its effectiveness should be assessed not only in the facility, but also at home. In addition, it is important to include the parent in the diagnostic process. This involvement is perceived as particularly important by less experienced educators. Young educators believe that parent support is important for them during the assessment process, understood more broadly than only as a diagnosis of the current effects of the student’s upbringing, teaching and learning, but also as a source of information about the dynamics and quality of changes taking place in the development of the child itself. Therefore, the main research question was: In what areas is parent involvement needed when planning and implication of solutions developed based on their child’s functional assessment? Conducting a diagnosis in accordance with the assumptions of a functional assessment is an opportunity to actually involve caregivers in this process in various fields (education and upbringing), taking into account the school and home environment.

Research on the Relationship Between Gender Equality and Economic Development
Authors: Zhang Chuqi , Li Meixuan , Qiu Zhiqing
Published: June 2024

Inspired by the correlation between the development of feminism in history and economic prosperity, this paper aims to discover the inert relationship between them using mathematics methods and figuring out the future trend in feminism development. This paper used the ratio of female labor to male labor and the ratio of female payment to male payment as indicators for feminism development, and GDP per capita for each country in 2021 as indicators for economic development. Polynomial Fitting Analysis and the R2 value test are applied to further study the correlation between feminism and economic development. The result shows that there exists a neutral, beneficial relationship between the development of the economic situation and the development of feminism, and the division between the two indicators demonstrates that the further development of feminism in each country requires not only economic promotion but also revolutionizing some cultural norms, based on biological facts. Finally, we tailor specific solutions to problems we displayed, such as some particular improvements in regulations and work-life balance for women.
Analysis of Public Opinion and Sentiments Towards Gap Year in China Based on Weibo Data Mining
Authors: Jiang Pengyi , Lu Lingyun
Published: June 2024

In May 2023, there was a heated discussion about gap year popped up on Chinese social media. To better understand this phenomenon, we investigated public opinion on gap year in China based on Weibo in this study. A relatively novel study approach in this field, social media data mining, was proposed in this essay. Then, we conducted some analyses based on the collected data, especially the sentiment of each individual who participating in the heated discussion. Last, we found that the discussion was heavily focused on the conflict between gap years and life schedule recognized by public, and negative emotions almost dominated public opinion. Most previous study about Gap Year in China focused on the small samples, the factors that individuals consider as barriers to participating in a gap year, and the motivation to participate in the gap year. Different from them, the result from this study can provide a new and relatively objective insights with a larger sample size into the real situation and public opinion of gap year in China.
Периодичность частоты вспышек активных вспыхивающих звезд обнаруженных TESS
Authors: Акопян А. А.
Published: June 2024

Поступила 8 ноября 2023 По данным орбитальной обсерватории TESS проведено исследование наиболее активных вспыхивающих звезд, показавших по 100 и более вспышек за период с июля 2018 по октябрь 2020гг. Основными направлениями исследования были: а) анализ кривых блеска, определение периодов осевых вращений, выявление физических особенностей у отдельных звезд, б) определение параметров периодической/циклической переменности частоты вспышек вспыхивающих звезд, обусловленной осевыми/орбитальными вращениями. Были получены соответствующие периоды функции частоты вспышек и проведено сравнение с периодами вращения звезд. Периоды функций частоты вспышек оказались близкими к периодам осевых вращений звезд. Построены теоретические распределения вспышек по фазам, которые сравнены с аналогичным наблюдаемым распределением вспышек при данном периоде. Для всех без исключения звезд сравнение с помощью критерия χ2 свидетельствует в пользу периодичности частоты вспышек. Предположено, что распределение пятен по долготе вспыхивающих звезд можно представить угловым распределением фон Мизеса, параметры которой определяются через соответствующие параметры функции частоты вспышек. Подробно обсуждена двойственность звезды CD-56 1032.
TESS data was used to study active flare stars, finding 100 or more flares between July 2018 and October 2020. The main objectives of this study were analyzing light curves, determining axial rotation periods, and identifying the physical features of flare stars. The corresponding periodic functions of the flare frequency are derived and checked for possible periodicity matching the star's rotation period. The flare frequency functions correlated closely with the stars' axial rotation periods. Theoretical phase distributions of flares are constructed and compared with a similar observed distribution of flares for a given period. For all stars without exception, this comparison (using the χ2 criterion) argues in favour of the periodicity of the flare frequency. It is assumed that the distribution of spots along the longitude of flare stars can be represented using by the von Mises angular distribution, the parameters of which are determined through the corresponding parameters of the flash frequency function. The binarity of the star CD-561032 is discussed in detail.
Influence of Mobile Online Battle Arena (MOBA) Addiction on Psychological Discomfort

Published: June 2024

An American Psychological Association study indicates that engaging in video games can improve a variety of cognitive abilities, including problem-solving, memory, spatial navigation, and reasoning. However, significant studies on the detrimental impacts of gaming, such as addiction, depression, and aggressiveness, have been found in several studies. Nevertheless, there is a lack of exploration of the effect of specific game genre addiction on the psychological well-being of students, not only in the Philippines but also around the world. The researchers used a quantitative, predictive design for this study. A total of 350 respondents participated in the study. In terms of MOBA usage, the average engagement level among college students was x̄ = 3.04, SD = 1.25. The study findings suggest that college students, on average, reported mild levels of psychological discomfort (x̄ = 2.27, SD = 0.742). Despite their involvement in MOBA activities, there appears to be a baseline level of psychological discomfort among participants. The researchers concluded that there is a positive significant correlation between MOBA addiction and psychological discomfort. Regression analysis, conducted with a significance threshold of 0.05, revealed that only the “Withdrawal” subscale of MOBA Addiction exhibited a predictive relationship (p = 0.03) Despite the significance of these findings, it is essential for future studies to address potential biases in participants’ responses. Additionally, it is recommended that future researchers conduct qualitative inquiries to provide a comprehensive understanding of the variables involved.
Role of Microfinance Service as an Approach to Women Economic Empowerment in Tanzania: Experience from Women Food Vendors in Shinyanga Municipal
Authors: Abbakary Haliye , Kilamlya Jacob
Published: June 2024

The ultimate goal of microfinance service is to eventually give impoverished people an opportunity to become self-sufficient by empowering in particular Women, as many microfinance organizations do. The role of microfinance institutions has been extended beyond women’s economic empowerment such that have the potential to make significant contributions to gender equality and promote sustainable livelihood and better working conditions to poor women. The study attempted to find out women empowerment factors and indicators that should be enhanced by microfinance services, the mode of loan application, and the extent to which women food vendors are impacted by loans on profit as far as Shinyanga Municipal council is concerned. The study engaged a sample size of 92 youth and adult women. Majority of women food vendors interviewed have been operating the business for more than 10 years and had applied for loan that amounted below TZS 1,000,000/-. It is evident that women prefer to apply loans from microfinance institutions in groups rather than individually. The impact of loans on profit was also tested before and after loan acquisition. The results show that after acquiring loans women had increased their monthly earnings to an average of TZS 3,000,000/- and play a dominant part in decision making at both household and community levels because of their status core. The findings reveal that community members recognize the reduction of interest rates, reduction of harsh conditions, and the provision of entrepreneurship skills as key components of empowerment factors. On empowerment indicators, the survey found that women have access to and control over resources, and women who earn huge income were likely to play a dominant part in decision making. Further, the survey reported that women have full freedom to spend their earnings as they wish.

Authors: Lugoma Masikini , Ilunga Masengo
Published: June 2024

The Markov chain (MC) technique is used preliminarily in the evaluation of the ranking of selected institutions of higher learning of South Africa. The data related to Scimago is used to illustrate the practical implication of MC. A random selection of universities was conducted for applying the MC technique., i.e., a middle and a bottom performing universities are selected. Different states were defined to carry out the estimation of the steady state of the Markov Chain to predict theoretically the future state of their rankings. These preliminary results showed that the former had 2 states with probability distributions of (0, 1) respectively, whereas the latter had 5 states with probability distribution of (0.892, 0.035, 0.035, 0.035, 0.01). This approach could be replicated to the rest of institutions of higher learning and considering other ranking metrics.

Um panorama bibliométrico da proteção de dados e da privacidade em contexto de avanço da inteligência artificial
Authors: Rover Aires José
Published: June 2024

Durante el proceso de establecimiento de una nueva sociedad, surgen varios temas dignos de análisis y reflexión, destacando entre ellos el papel de la inteligencia artificial, especialmente el aprendizaje automático y sus aplicaciones predictivas. Aunque se ha explorado ampliamente la protección de datos personales y la privacidad en la literatura científica, existe una notable ausencia de estudios que conecten este análisis con las últimas técnicas de inteligencia artificial. En este sentido, proponemos llevar a cabo un mapeo más cuantitativo que cualitativo de las publicaciones científicas más influyentes que abordan estos temas interrelacionados. Para cumplir con este objetivo, hemos optado por utilizar un enfoque bibliométrico, llevado a cabo durante los meses de marzo y abril de 2024, empleando un método de análisis inductivo y adoptando el procedimiento de estudio de caso.
Effects of Temperature and Solar Irradiation Variations on The Performances of Photovoltaic Pumping Systems
Authors: Jraidi Moncef , Cherif Adnen
Published: June 2024

Climate and solar radiation levels are two major environmental elements that affect the operation of photovoltaic (PV) pumping systems. Rising temperatures cause a decrease in PV modules' electrical efficiency because of the fall of fill factor and open-circuit voltage. They may also cause a decrease in motor efficiency because of the growing winding resistance losses. Besides, the increased photocurrent and power production of the PV array are caused by higher levels of solar irradiation, which makes the pump run at higher speeds or flow rates. To quantify these impacts and forecast system performance, precise modeling techniques and control laws are used such as MPPT, PWM and U/F in this paper. This paper presents solar performances and responses such as the flow of the pumped water, the PV power outputs, motor voltages, currents, speed and finally converter controls. However, although MPPT and PWM control laws improve the energy efficiency of the overall system, the simulation results show that the performance of the PV pumping system degrades when the temperature increases and the solar flux decreases, which will affect the autonomy of the PV system.
