Published: February 2025

Congenital portosystemic shunt (CPSS) is a rare vascular anomaly in which portal vein blood flows into the systemic circulation without passing through the liver. They occur in approximately 1 in 30,000–50,000 live births. We present an 11-year-old patient with an extrahepatic CPSS managed with long-term follow-up. The initial clinical presentation showed no significant abnormalities. Subsequent assessments revealed slightly elevated ammonia (NH3) and total bile acids (TBAs). Two times angiography at the ages of 2 and 11 years confirmed a shunt between the portal vein and left renal vein, with a gradual shift in blood flow dominance from the celiac artery-splenic vein system to the superior mesenteric artery-superior mesenteric vein system as the patient aged. Due to the risk of complications, transcatheter shunt embolization was performed, utilizing 12 coils to achieve complete shunt embolization. Post-embolization, NH3, and TBA levels normalized, and the patient remained asymptomatic. This case highlights the importance of timing in CPSS intervention, particularly with shifting hemodynamics and underscores the need for further studies on optimal intervention timing in pediatric CPSS.

Purpose. To study and assess medication adherence in patients with primary glaucoma with regard to the main clinical and demographic parameters.

Material and methods. The study was conducted on the basis of Ufa Eye Research Institute by random sampling of individuals with primary glaucoma from June to September 2024. Data from a sociological survey of 244 respondents using a modified Morisky – Green questionnaire were used in the work. Statistical analysis of the data was performed using IBM SPSS Statistic.

Results and discussion. We found that the percentage of non-adherent patients was the highest and estimated at 58.2%, the share of adherent patients was the lowest – 5.7%, and 36.1% of patients were insufficiently adherent. Among the non-adherent patients, there were no statistically significant differences both between men and women (men – 65.0%, women – 51.7%, p=0.11), and between Ufa residents, people living in district centers or towns of Bashkortostan, and rural residents (51.7%, 60.0%, and 64.7%, respectively, p=0.06). However, the share of non-compliant patients with primary glaucoma stage I was 41.2%, with stage II – 60.9%, with stage III – 60.0%, with stage IV – 63.6% (p=0.3).

Conclusion. Our data show that the majority of glaucoma patients have low medication adherence. Enhancing patient compliance remains an urgent public health problem, and developing the necessary strategies will increase the efficacy of medical care and improve the quality of life in glaucoma.

Purpose. To evaluate the functional and anatomical effect of vitreoretinal surgery in patients with epiretinal membranes and foveoschisis (ERM-foveoschisis) (a series of clinical cases).

Material and methods. A retrospective analysis of 4 clinical cases was performed in patients aged 67.2±6.3 years with ERM-foveoschisis on artificial eyes. 3D vitreoretinal surgery was performed in various modifications: full circular maculorexis (group 1) and partial maculorexis with fovea coating (group 2). Functional and anatomical efficacy was monitored for up to 12 months.

Results. Positive functional results were achieved in all patients. The Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) increased by 12 months of follow-up from 0.33±0.04 to 0.57±0.02 (p<0.05). There was no difference in visual acuity in patients of groups 1 and 2 by 12 months of follow-up (p=0.05).

Anatomical restoration of the macular structure was most complete and rapid in patients of group 1. In patients of groups 1 and 2, the indices of maximum and minimum retinal thickness improved: up to 498.21±41.17 and 251.54±39.15 microns, respectively (p<0.05). Regression of foveoschisis in depth and extent occurred by 3 months. Macular volume decreased from 14.21±11.37 to 8.98±12.15 mm3 by 12 months (p<0.05).

Conclusion. Progressive deterioration of functional and anatomical parameters in patients with ERM-foveoschisis is an indication for vitreoretinal surgery, which leads to positive anatomical and functional results.

Purpose. Evaluation of the outcomes of diode laser cyclophotocoagulation (CFC) in eyes with end-stage glaucoma in the long-term postoperative period.

Material and methods. The results of CFC were evaluated in 1,674 patients (1,674 eyes) with end-stage glaucoma and severe pain syndrome in the long-term postoperative period. Diode laser CPF was performed on all eyes according to the standard procedure.

Results. After surgery, the pain syndrome was stopped in all patients. Complications in the early postoperative period were detected in 9.6% of cases: reactive hypertension with corneal edema in 2 eyes (3.8%), hyphema in 3 eyes (5.7%). The average IOP values on the first day of follow-up in the main group were 29.58±6.25 mm Hg. By 1 month of follow-up, all patients showed a decrease in IOP values by an average of 35–40% from the baseline, after 6 months – by 25–35% lower than preoperative, amounting to 28±9.84 mm Hg. In 21.1% of cases, there was a sharp decrease in IOP, persistent hypotension of the eye and, as a result, subatrophy of the eyeball. Evisceration with resection of the posterior pole and plasty of the musculoskeletal stump due to pain syndrome was required in 41 patients (2.5%), eyeball subatrophy and hypotension in 11 (0.7%).

Conclusion. Diode laser CFC is an effective method of treating terminal glaucoma, which allows in 97% of cases to stop the pain syndrome and preserve the eye as an organ. Carrying out evisceroenucleation with plastic surgery of the musculoskeletal stump allows you to eliminate pain and get a good cosmetic effect, improving the quality of life of the patient.

This article deals with the stages of ophthalmic care establishment in Bashkiria and describes the impact of trachoma burden on its development. Trachoma was the primary reason for the establishment of ophthalmic institutions in the region, nonetheless, that could not prevent the spread of the disease across Ufa governate. It was the creation of networks of trachoma institutions in the Soviet era that made it possible to eliminate the disease in Bashkiria by 1960s.

The article presents a case of peripheral ulcerative keratitis (PUK) that first developed in a 58-year-old female patient E., who had been suffering from rheumatoid arthritis for about 1.5 years. Among all peripheral keratitis, about half of the cases of PUK are due to systemic autoimmune diseases. The development of PUK in patients with rheumatoid arthritis occurs in 1.4% of cases. The pathogenetically oriented drug for the treatment of the autoimmune process remains the use of glucocorticosteroids (GCS) locally or systemically. However, there is still no consensus on the early prescription of GCS locally.

The prescription of 0.1% fluorometholone solution instillations into the conjunctival cavity of the patient at the early stage of PUK along with the correction of rheumatoid arthritis treatment led to the relief of inflammation in the cornea. Thus, the joint interaction of an ophthalmologist and a rheumatologist in the treatment of non-infectious peripheral ulcerative keratitis that developed with rheumatoid arthritis makes it possible to stop the progression of the inflammatory process to severe manifestations with corneal perforation.

Total Synthesis of Dactyloquinone A and Spiroetherone A.
Authors: Schoenn Guillaume , Kouklovsky Cyrille , Guillot Régis , Magauer Thomas , Vincent Guillaume
Published: February 2025

We report the total synthesis of dactyloquinone A and spiroetherone A from a meroterpenoid scaffold obtained by the deconjugative alkylation of a Wieland–Miescher type ketone. For dactyloquinone A, we employed an intramolecular hydrofunction-alisation of the internal trisubstituted alkene with a quinone monoacetal via a metal-hydride hydrogen atom transfer (MHAT) process to form the key C–O bond. For spiroetherone A, we relied on a stereospecific quinol-spiroenedione rearrangement. The initially postulated structure of spiroetherone A was first synthesized, but was found to be different from the natural product. Finally, spi-roetherone A was shown to be epimeric at the spirocyclic carbon. This finding was confirmed by total synthesis involving epimeri-zation of the spirocycle via a late-stage singlet oxygen [4+2] cycloaddition to a cyclohexadiene derived from the initial ene-dione.

Published: February 2025

The global drive towards net-zero has accelerated the adoption of carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP) for lightweight structures in various sectors such as aerospace, automotive, energy and biomedical. Mechanical machining of CFRP is often necessary to meet dimensional or assembly-related requirements. However, significant challenges including surface defects (delamination, burr, surface roughness), rapid tool wear and material transition issues in drilling CFRP/metal stack, underscore the need for effective, automated process prediction / optimization for improved machining performance. Conventional physics-based models often fall short due to their reliance on extensive computational resources and inability to capture CFRP’s complex machining dynamics arising from thermo-mechanical load coupling and process uncertainties. To address these limitations, recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) offer promising, data-driven solutions that reduce reliance on domain-specific knowledge while delivering fast, accurate predictions by uncovering patterns within dataset. This provides a promising solution towards intelligent CFRP machining process with improved quality and efficiency. To date, there is a lack of comprehensive, up-to-date review of data-driven methods in CFRP machining process prediction/optimization. This review fills this gap and provides a critical analysis of data-driven methods in four key application settings: (i) machining process characteristics and surface quality/defects prediction; (ii) tool wear prediction; (iii) material transition recognition in CFRP/metal stacks machining; (iv) vision-based surface defects recognition. By presenting a state-of-the-art overview of advances, challenges and future research directions, this review highlights the transformative potential of data-driven methods in advancing intelligent CFRP machining within the manufacturing value chain.
The role of ESR1 gene mutation in therapy selection for HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer: A review
Authors: Paichadze Anna A. , Chashnikova Ekaterina P. , Golubeva Sofya A.
Published: February 2025

Estrogen receptors are detected in more than 70% of cases of metastatic breast cancer (mBC). Currently, various hormonal therapy options are used to treat these tumors. However, modern oncology faces an acute problem of acquired resistance to hormonal therapy, including late lines of therapy for HR-positive (HR+) and HER2-negative (HER2-) mBC. The common causes of resistance include mutations in the ESR1 gene that are usually absent in the primary tumor. These mutations are associated with aggravation of the disease. Until recently, their detection was only of prognostic value and was not taken into account when choosing the treatment regimen. As the new data become available on the role of mutations in the ESR1 gene and their possible impact on the choice of mBC therapy, it seems appropriate to consider the main criteria for testing and test methods to detect the mutations in routine clinical practice. This review article addresses issues related to optimal treatment for progression of HR+/HER2- mBC during endocrine therapy, taking into account the accumulated data on mutations in the ESR1 gene. We also consider the available data on the studied oral selective estrogen receptor destructors as drugs that significantly increase survival in late lines of therapy for hormone-dependent tumors.

Authors: Ognerubov Nikolai A. , Antipova Tatiana S. , Poddubnaya Irina V.
Published: February 2025

Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma can occur anywhere in the human body. A diffuse extensive peritoneal lesion is uncommon and rare. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common histological type of extranodal lymphoma in peritoneal lymphomatosis.
A case of isolated peritoneal lymphomatosis is presented. A 23-year-old female patient N. presented with decreased appetite, bloating, pain, and abdominal enlargement. The symptoms persisted for 4 months. Recently, she reported a fever (38.4°C), sweating at night, and decreased body weight. On physical examination, the abdomen was enlarged, tense on palpation, tender in the epigastrium, and dull to percussion in all parts. No signs of specific changes in peripheral lymph nodes were observed. Tachycardia was noted, and blood pressure was within normal range. Five weeks ago, a laparoscopy was performed, which revealed an extensive infiltrative lesion of the parietal and visceral peritoneum of the abdomen and pelvis and the greater omentum with the presence of mesenteric lymph nodes. A biopsy of the peritoneum and greater omentum was performed. Cytological examination of ascitic fluid showed a pattern of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Histological examination revealed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma with CD20+ expression. Positron-emission and X-ray computed tomography with 18-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) showed diffuse thickening of the parietal and visceral peritoneum, mesentery and omentum with subtotal filling of the abdominal and pelvic cavities with masses with increased radiopharmaceutical uptake. No FDG-active lesions were detected in the liver and spleen parenchyma. Diagnosis: diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, stage IVB; peritoneal lymphomatosis, IPI 3. Polychemotherapy was recommended according to the R-CHOP regimen. The patient refused the proposed treatment due to the change of domicile.
Isolated peritoneal lymphomatosis is a rare manifestation of extranodal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. There are no specific clinical symptoms. Positron emission and X-ray computed tomography with 18-FDG are an alternative method for diagnosing peritoneal lymphomatosis.

Aim. To evaluate the efficacy and safety profile of the pembrolizumab biosimilar, Pembroria, in patients with advanced lung cancer in routine clinical practice.
Materials and methods. The patients eligible for pembrolizumab therapy based on standard clinical indications and without contraindications participated in the multicenter, multicohort, post-marketing, prospective, non-interventional study. The primary endpoint was the best objective response rate (ORR) assessed within six months of treatment initiation. This report presents interim analysis for patients with non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (nsNSCLC) and squamous non-small cell lung cancer (sNSCLC) using Fleming’s two-stage single-arm design (stages g1 and g2). Thresholds for hypothesis testing and sample size determination were based on established literature benchmarks.
Results
Non-squamous NSCLC. Stage g1 enrolled 20 patients with a median age of 64 years. The follow-up period for assessing the best objective response was 2.57 months. An objective response was achieved in 55% (11/20) of patients, meeting predefined efficacy criteria at stage g1.
Squamous NSCLC. Stage g1 included 23 patients and based on the results of stage g1, the study proceeded to stage g2 with the enrollment of an additional 23 patients in stage g2, yielding a total of 46 participants with a median age of 66 years. An ORR of 47.8% (22/46) was observed, confirming efficacy of the pembrolisumab biosimilar at stage g2. The median follow-up period to the objective response assessment was 2.88 months.
Across the six-month follow-up period, nine adverse events (AEs) were reported among seven patients (8.4%) in the NSCLC cohort. Four AEs were considered therapy-related and classified as Grade 2 per CTCAE v5.0. No AEs Grade 4/5 were recorded.
Conclusion. In the NSCLC cohort, the pembrolizumab biosimilar (Pembroria) has demonstrated an ORR comparable to that of the reference pembrolizumab reported in clinical trials for both nsNSCLC and sNSCLC, regardless of PD-L1 expression levels or pembrolizumab treatment regimens. These findings support the real-world efficacy and safety of Pembroria in a diverse patient population.

Published: February 2025

As urban areas demand position information for transportation, disaster management, and smart agriculture, Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) usage increases. However, multipath error sources from buildings and trees can degrade GNSS performance, posing a serious challenge to urban navigation systems. This study analyzed the impact of multipath on GNSS receiver positioning accuracy in three different reference coordinates (RC), namely (23.2547ON, 87.8468OE, -26.056m, RC1), (23.2544ON, 87.8470OE, -25.919m, RC2), and (23.2545ON, 87.8468OE, -17.599m, RC3), characterized as in-between 2 building walls (RC1), in-between building wall and trees (RC2), and open sky environment (RC3), within the vicinity of the GNSS Laboratory at the University of Burdwan, India, using a dual frequency Javad Triumph L S geodetic receiver. In this study, Signal Strength (C/No), Precise Point Positioning (PPP), Number of Satellites in View (NSV), Geometric Dilution of Precision (GDOP), 3-Distance Radial Mean Square (3-DRMS) position error, and Position Dilution of Precision (PDOP) were used as performance metrics to evaluate the position accuracy of the processed Rinex 2.11 data. The open sky environment (RC3) result showcases less than 4mm horizontal and 11cm vertical PPP accuracy in GPS and GPS+GLONASS hybrid modes of operation, indicating the best position for GNSS PPP when compared with the 15mm horizontal, 89cm vertical, and 27mm horizontal, 57cm vertical PPP accuracies of RC1 and RC2. Further analysis results show that the same RC3 has the highest C/No, maximum NSV, very low GDOP, and PDOP with the least 3DRMS position error of the measured constellations compared to the other two RC locations. Moreover, it was noticed that the multi-GNSS hybrid mode of operation technique adopted in this study mitigates the position error and enhances the GNSS receiver’s positioning accuracy. Hence, this paper has significantly contributed to the study of multipath effects on GNSS receivers’ positioning accuracy in different GNSS propagation channel scenarios.

The research reveals several key themes regarding the integration of data mining into educational settings. First, educators reported significant enhancements in their teaching practices, facilitated by insights drawn from data analysis. These insights allow for the customization of instruction tailored to individual student needs, fostering a more personalized learning experience that enhances student engagement and retention. Additionally, the identification of learning patterns through data mining provides educators with a comprehensive understanding of student behaviors, enabling them to track progress, pinpoint at-risk students, and implement targeted interventions effectively. Another important finding of this study is the shift towards data-driven decision-making within educational institutions. Administrators leverage data mining to inform policy decisions, resource allocation, and curriculum design, leading to improved operational efficiency and accountability. However, the research also identifies several challenges and ethical considerations associated with the use of data mining in education. Concerns regarding data privacy, the potential for biased outcomes, and the complexity of data interpretation highlight the need for a careful and responsible approach to data mining practices. The study underscores the importance of ongoing professional development initiatives to equip educators with the necessary skills to interpret and utilize data insights effectively. Additionally, fostering a collaborative culture among educators, administrators, and data specialists is crucial for maximizing the benefits of data mining in educational settings. By contributing to the growing body of literature on educational data mining, this research provides valuable insights that can inform future policy and practice, ultimately enhancing the educational experience for students and educators alike.
Territorio, patrimonio y los Voladores de Tamaletom, San Luis Potosí, México
Authors: Aldaz Norma
Published: February 2025

La comunidad de Tamaletom ha destacado por su ritual de los Voladores, que fue inscrito a la Lista Representativa del Patrimonio Cultural Inmaterial de la Humanidad por la UNESCO. Sin embargo, este y otros procesos de patrimonialización se han centrado en destacar la práctica de manera individual, omitiendo la relación simbiótica que existe entre las configuraciones territoriales y la construcción simbólico-cultural de la comunidad. Por ello, este trabajo tiene como objetivo evidenciar las diferencias en torno a las concepciones del territorio y el patrimonio desde la perspectiva institucional y comunitaria. A través de una metodología de enfoque cualitativo, se aplicaron entrevistas semi-estructuradas a la población local, codificadas y analizadas a través del software libre R. En consecuencia, fue posible identificar que la comunidad parte de una apropiación simbólica del territorio, la cual ha permitido el desarrollo y permanencia del K´alap, un sistema simbólico-cultural que posibilita la reproducción de su cultura.
Patrimônio-territorial: a construção do conceito decolonial e o caso de um território do habitar
Authors: Queiroz Pedro Thomé , Sousa Gabriela Vilela de
Published: February 2025

A discussão conceitual do patrimônio-territorial, proposta e sustentada desde a realidade empírica latino-americana, fundamenta-se no método existencialista na epistemologia geográfica da existência. O artigo tem por objetivo revisar a proposta do patrimônio-territorial, a partir da análise das investigações já realizadas sobre o tema. Metodologicamente, foram realizados levantamentos bibliográficos em repositórios de universidades brasileiras e revistas científicas, com vias ao alcance de trabalhos que debatem o patrimônio-territorial de matriz decolonial e existencialista. Como resultado, aponta-se a atualidade da proposta do patrimônio-territorial e seu potencial de inversão da realidade vivida pelos sujeitos subalternizados na América Latina, pelo confronto a colonialidade do saber e do poder. O Bairro Noroeste de Brasília, construído em um território indígena ancestral, demonstra, enquanto caso de análise, a urgência da operacionalização do conceito para a compreensão de fenômenos que ocorrem nas cidades-campo do continente.
“Cidades da patrimonialização global”: debate sobre urbanização, território e mercantilização da cultura (resenha)
Authors: Oliveira Washington Candido
Published: February 2025

O movimento histórico abrange a cidade em constante transformação, repleta de vivências e significados, além de ser um local de acúmulo material. Essa perspectiva permite uma análise crítica da gestão das novas configurações socioterritoriais resultantes da valorização comercial e turística nas áreas centrais das cidades. Tal análise esclarece questões cruciais sobre o tipo de cidade histórica sendo moldada e o modelo de preservação consolidado no Brasil e mesmo na América Latina. A obra "Cidades da patrimonialização global: simultaneidade totalidade urbana - totalidade-mundo," publicada em 2015 pela Humanitas e financiada pela FAPESP, oferece uma investigação profunda sobre o que se conceitualiza “patrimonialização global” e seus efeitos nas cidades históricas brasileiras, o que se replica para outros estudos latinoamericanos.

Published: February 2025

Este editorial del vol. 7, núm. 14 de PatryTer – Revista Latinoamericana y Caribeña de Geografía y Humanidades se enfoca la cartografía, en tanto instrumento analítico de la Geografía, y la historia del territorio, como noción sintética de una de las preocupaciones de la disciplina. Ello justifica el homenaje que este número de la revista rinde al Dr. José Omar Moncada Maya, colega mexicano que ha dedicado más de medio siglo a la Geografía Iberoamericana. Sin duda, el homenaje a un geógrafo historiador resulta pertinente en estos momentos de la historia humana en que el conocimiento está dominado por las técnicas, la fugacidad y la proyección hacia el futuro, pues no debemos olvidar, ni en la ciencia ni en ningún aspecto de la existencia humana, que en el pasado están las claves para comprender el presente y planear  un futuro mejor. La obra de José Omar Moncada nos permite revisar el devenir de la geografía mexicana para entender los caminos actuales de esta disciplina y plantear los escenarios del mañana en diálogo con otras escuelas latinoamericanas.

En este artículo se pondrán en diálogo los conceptos de prácticas espaciales, recreación y ocio, espacio público y paisaje. El objetivo central es analizar el modo en que los sujetos sociales interactúan y construyen estrategias de uso del espacio público y a partir de ello re-elaboran el paisaje a partir de sus experiencias. Este abordaje se sustenta en una metodología cualitativa de observación participante y cruce con fuentes secundarias periodísticas, análisis de fotografías del sitio y entrevistas exploratorias en relación a los usos, la construcción del paisaje y los modos de acción en las prácticas del ocio y la recreación en relación al caso de la ribera de San Isidro (2000-2020).
O sentido de América Latina na formação em Geografia: proposta metodológica a partir do cinema
Authors: Brandão Paulo Roberto Baqueiro
Published: February 2025

Seja como utopia ou realidade histórica, a América Latina é, ainda, uma grande incógnita para a sociedade brasileira e a Geografia – ciência e disciplina escolar – tem um papel a desempenhar na reversão desse quadro. Neste sentido, propõe-se a formulação de uma metodologia de ensino da disciplina Geografia da América Latina lecionada na UFOB que busca conciliar o estudo geográfico a uma ilustração lúdica da formação territorial latinoamericana por meio da análise de produções cinematográficas e na literatura de Eduardo Galeano na perspectiva da Geografia Histórica. Assim, o objetivo deste escrito é dar ciência e debater o escopo metodológico desenvolvido para o plano de ensino proposto. Para tanto, o artigo foi construído seguindo um roteiro que contempla (a) um detalhamento dos aspectos construtivos da metodologia e (b) uma exposição relativa às escolhas das obras constantes em cada um dos períodos definidos.
Geografía y el proceso de integración de América Latina y el Caribe
Authors: Souza Maria Adélia Aparecida de
Published: February 2025

Este texto presenta ideas y elementos para la configuración de un sistema de seguimiento del uso del territorio en América Latina, para monitorear el proceso de integración, con la elaboración y acción de políticas gubernamentales nacionales. Se reflexiona sobre la necesidad de retomar la discusión sobre la dimensión territorial de las funciones públicas de interés común y colectivo, considerando la integración como una forma de subsidiar políticas continentales, nacionales, regionales y locales que minimicen las desigualdades socioespaciales, características perversas de la sociedad latinoamericana, realidad agravada por la globalización. Se trata también de la creación de una base de datos multidisciplinaria de interés común en el continente, que podría vincularse a la UNILA – Universidad de Integración de América Latina, instrumento del proceso de integración continental. Estas ideas parten de un fundamento teórico geográfico y de las características del mundo globalizado, para delinear la planificación territorial de la integración. Geografía, Geopolítica y Geopoética amplían las perspectivas de esta reflexión.

Authors:   University of Žilina, Coneva Iveta
Published: February 2025

It is essential to continually enhance the education of students and professionals in the field of safety science by incorporating modern technologies, particularly with a focus on rescue services study programs. In various economic sectors (e.g., industry, agriculture, transport, and others), dust often occurs as an input raw material, intermediate product, final product, usable byproduct, or waste. Combustible dust poses a potential fire and explosion hazard in production and processing technologies and equipment. Safety experts must be equipped to assess the flammability and explosibility of dust in specific technologies and devices, drawing on their knowledge of this critical issue.

The article presents a quantitative biomechanical reconstruction and analysis of a forensically relevant event—a fall of a human subject from height—and a comparative analysis of guardrail height in such incidents. The reconstruction was
conducted using the multibody module of PC-Crash simulation software within a 3D model of the technically relevant parts of the building, created from a 3D point cloud of the site. The results of the analysis suggest that the height of the guardrail may have influenced the course of the event, even though the guardrail height met legislative specifications for the given balcony parameters.

Review of Islamic Marriage Law and Gender Justice Towards SEMA Number 3 Of 2018 Concerning Rejection of Isbat Polygamy Cases in Religious Courts
Authors: Abdul Halim Halmi
Published: February 2025

Having more than one wife or polygamy in Indonesia is regulated in Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning Marriage. Marriages in Indonesia are also regulated in terms of registration. In society there is a phenomenon of husbands marrying more than one wife (polygamy) without being recorded by the Marriage Registrar. Because the legal status of the second, third or fourth wife is unclear if it is not recorded, an application for polygamous isbat is submitted to the court. However, there is SEMA regulation Number 3 of 2018 which prohibits polygamous isbat from being processed in court. Therefore, the aim of this research is to find answers to questions related to polygamous isbat procedures, analysis of Islamic marriage law regarding the rejection of polygamous isbat in religious courts and gender justice analysis regarding the rejection of polygamous isbat in religious courts. The research method used was content analysis, which used a data search method, namely literature study. From this research it was found that the marriage isbat procedure with polygamous isbat is different, the rejection of polygamous isbat in religious courts according to Islamic Marriage Law is not a new problem and the rejection of polygamous isbat in Religious Courts according to gender justice is divided into two versions, if viewed from the first wife's version it is fair gender, while for second or subsequent wives there is no gender equality.
Repatriace a reemigrace Čechů z Ukrajiny v letech 1918–1923
Authors: Vymětalík Daniel
Published: February 2025

Předložená studie se věnuje problematice repatriací a reemigrací z Ukrajiny v letech 1918–1923. Repatrianti byli váleční zajatci a vojáci rakousko-uherské armády, kteří se ocitli v průběhu války na Ukrajině. Naopak reemigranti byli čeští vystěhovalci, kteří se na Ukrajině usazovali v 60. a 80. letech 19. století a společně s vojáky a zajatci se navraceli do země svého původu. Na základě stávající literatury a rozboru archivních pramenů české provenience studie postihuje průběh těchto návratů a následně se pokouší o kvalifikovaný odhad počtu navrátivších se repatriantů a reemigrantů.
Uso de técnicas como la regresión y redes neuronales para anticipar el rendimiento del maíz
Authors: Carvajal Chávez Carlos Arturo
Published: February 2025

El rendimiento del maíz es un factor crítico para la seguridad alimentaria y el desarrollo económico global, especialmente frente a desafíos como el cambio climático y el aumento de la población. La anticipación precisa de su rendimiento puede optimizar la planificación agrícola y mitigar riesgos asociados con su producción. Este estudio tiene como objetivo evaluar y comparar la eficacia de técnicas como la regresión y redes neuronales en la predicción del rendimiento del maíz. Se llevó a cabo una revisión sistemática siguiendo los lineamientos del método PRISMA, lo que permitió analizar exhaustivamente investigaciones relevantes publicadas en los últimos diez años. Los resultados destacan que las redes neuronales superan consistentemente a los modelos de regresión en términos de precisión predictiva, especialmente cuando se integran múltiples variables climáticas y agronómicas. Sin embargo, los modelos de regresión ofrecen ventajas en términos de interpretabilidad y simplicidad. La investigación concluye que el uso combinado de ambas técnicas podría proporcionar un equilibrio entre precisión e interpretabilidad, ofreciendo una herramienta robusta para la toma de decisiones en la agricultura. Este enfoque multidisciplinario impulsa avances en el modelado predictivo, contribuyendo al desarrollo de estrategias agrícolas más sostenibles y resilientes frente a futuros desafíos.

Published: February 2025

El objetivo general de este estudio fue evaluar la prevalencia, características clínicas, métodos diagnósticos y posibles mecanismos fisiopatológicos de la migraña vestibular en la población pediátrica mediante una revisión sistemática de la literatura. Con este fin se llevó a cabo una búsqueda exhaustiva en bases de datos como PubMed, Scopus y Web of Science, siguiendo la guía PRISMA. Se incluyeron estudios publicados desde 2000 hasta 2024 que evaluaran migraña vestibular en niños (de 0 a 10 años), excluyendo artículos con datos insuficientes o en idiomas no disponibles. La selección inicial arrojó 485 artículos, de los cuales 23 cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión tras revisión por duplicado. Los estudios revisados informaron que la prevalencia de migraña vestibular en niños varía entre el 18,7 % y el 27 %, dependiendo del diseño y población analizada. Las niñas presentan mayor predisposición con una relación de 1,5 a 5:1 frente a los niños. Los síntomas comunes incluyen cefalea migrañosa, vértigo episódico y náuseas, mientras que la falta de criterios diagnósticos unificados complica el diagnóstico. Entre las hipótesis fisiopatológicas, se destacan las alteraciones vasculares cerebrales y la inmadurez del sistema vestibular infantil. La migraña vestibular en la infancia es un trastorno subestimado y complejo de diagnosticar debido a la variabilidad de los síntomas y la ausencia de criterios estándar. Es fundamental el desarrollo de protocolos diagnósticos uniformes y estudios longitudinales que permitan una mejor comprensión de su prevalencia y fisiopatología.
