Parents' Knowledge about Type I Diabetes Mellitus at Diabetes and Endocrine Treatment Centers in Baghdad City
Authors: Faraj Raad
Published: August 2023

Objectives: The current study aims to evaluate parents' knowledge towards diabetes mellitus (type I); to identify the association between parents' knowledge and their demographic characteristics; and to identify the association between parents' knowledge and demographic characteristics of their children. Methodology: Descriptive study carried out during the period from January to April 2015 on purposive sample of 100 parents with their children with diabetes mellitus who attending diabetes and endocrine treatment center. An evaluation tool is constructed by the researcher based on previous literature regarding aspects of parents' knowledge toward juvenile diabetes mellitus. Content validity was determined with panel experts. The internal consistency of the instrument was determined through the computation of Alpha Correlation Coefficient, which was statistically acceptable. Data were collected with the assessment tool and the interview technique was used as a means of data collection. The analysis of the data was employed by the use of SPSS version 15.0 through the application of descriptive statistical and inferential statistics such as frequencies, percentages, the mean of scores and chi-square. Results: The findings of the current study show that parents having good knowledge regarding diabetes mellitus (type I). The findings indicate that there is significant association between body mass index and admission to hospital with parents' knowledge. The findings also show that there is significant association between father's education and job with parents' knowledge. Recommendations: The study recommended encouraging parent for more involvement in seminars and educational session on diabetes mellitus (type I) and how to deal with such patient; and further studies are required for focusing on coping strategies to face the burdens of diabetes mellitus (type I) as a chronic health problem.
The Cosmos as the Hierarchy of Self-Similarity of the One: Plato’s Doctrine of the Beautiful in the Light of the Theory of Fractals
Authors: Zudilina Nadezhda
Published: August 2023

The introduction of the intensiveness (depth) axis, orthogonal to the extensiveness (length–width–height) axis makes it possible to consider the beautiful Cosmos as the hierarchy of resemblances of the One, on the basis of the diaeresis of line proposed by Plato in the dialogue The Republic. Each line segment obtained as a result of diaeresis is designated by one (1), zero (0) or a numerical combination consisting of ones and zeros. One (1) is assigned the value “intensiveness”, and zero (0) is assigned the value “extensiveness”. Through the application of the intensiveness and extensiveness axes, the interpretation of the segments on each of the levels of the diaeresis of line along the intensiveness axis is given. The One (1=⟂) on zero level of diaeresis is beyond the dialectical opposites, but nevertheless beautiful Νοῦς (Nous, the Cosmic Mind) is Its likeness. On the first level of the diaeresis, both the intensive (1, or point), as the representation of the mental (Nous), and the extensive (0, or line), as the representation of the material, are derived from the One (1=⟂). Nous is purely intensive. The intensive is the same (τὸ ταὐτόν). The mixture of the same and the other (τὸ ἕτερον) is the similar (τὸ ὅμοιον). The similar is “…infinitely fairer than the dissimilar” [Plat. Tim. 33b]. The structuring of the other (as the dissimilar) by Νοῦς (as the same) leads to the creation of true likeness (εἰκών), the beautiful Cosmos, which can be represented by the scheme of the diaeresis of line. The result of the diaeresis of line is a fractal – a self-similar object, each part of which repeats the whole on a reduced scale. Thus, the scheme of the diaeresis of line represents the fractal hierarchy of the Cosmos. Since fractal is self-similar, the hierarchy of the Cosmos is the hierarchy of self-similarity of the One. The diaeresis of line represents the similarity to the One, i.e., self-similarity of the One on each of the levels of the diaeresis of line along the intensiveness axis. Any similarity is self-similarity of the One, and for any existing object, the similarity to the One-Good is true similarity to itself/oneself. Since the One is the source of the Beauty of the Cosmos and of every object in the Cosmos, the condition for preserving or returning beauty to the resemblances is to remain similar to or become similar to the One.
A (Post)philosophical Argument on Anti-Art and Digital Transgressions of self-Fashioning. From Dada to Data, or How to Curate Selves on Instagram?
Authors: Șerban Oana
Published: August 2023

This article tackles the possibility to understand the process of curating the digital self by treating virtual identities as a form of anti-art. The museification of the world engaged by social networks such as Instagram, a platform canonically devoted to visual content, seems to restore the Dada tradition of the photomontage, as well as the turn to the routine of our quotidian existence, aestheticized through live transmissions and daily vlogs. Insta-gramming became a digital practice that progressively installed what Richter used to call “the alienation of photography”, as there is no aesthetic claim for the visual content, but neither a profound ignorance of artistic criteria. Therefore, anonymous masses homogenized as co-performers of life-casting online consume results of a digital curating based on the Dada photomontage, the Futurist appetite for technology and the Surrealist automatic creation or psychic automatism. My argument is that as digital curation progressively shared with vanguards such principles, virtual identities became anti-art objects. Moreover, curating the self is no longer an artistic performance, but rather a social skill. In the last part of my study, I will bring to the spotlight two competitive narrations on digital curation, productive, respectively consumptive curation. In my opinion, these two paradigms raised by Davis are relevant for developing the commodification of the self, as well as new literary practices based on Bourriaud’s relational aesthetics. Consequently, I argue in favour of assuming the curation of the self by digital means as a daily practice entangling creativity and leisure, understood as creleisure, a concept coined by the artist Hélio Oiticica back in 1969. As aesthetics tends to track down such behaviours for their transgressive potential, measuring the historical shift of autocreation from Dada to Data perspectives, philosophy still has to work on the consequences of such phenomena on self-care, self-knowledge, and authenticity.
Онтология на ценностите. Ценностно разсъждение
Authors: Kristeva Silviya
Published: August 2023

The article engages with the contemporary debate on values by delineating two problem lines. In order to have a proper explanation and derivation of values, we must recognize their ontological status, which undoubtedly provides the basis and movement towards an ontology of the spiritual and of valuable in general. This is the direction taken by Baden neo-Kantianism, and here the article traces the transformation of Kant’s apriorism into axiological apriorism. Once the values are recognized in their “realm”, they must be provided with their axiomatics. But the a priori forms through which they become accessible and are embedded in human rationality and human activity are also subject to consideration. For Rickert, one such form is judgment, but this defined a new role for judgment for human knowledge. The highest class of judgment in the Kantian and Hegelian classifications – modality, provides models of transition and structuring of the new a priori form of ratiocination, as a meta-formation, giving access and work to the unconditional and the values in human knowledge.

De ‘Mercure’ à ‘Abou Sefein’: Évolution de l’iconographie d’un saint cavalier en Égypte
Authors: Sadek Ashraf Alexandre
Published: August 2023

En travaillant, depuis bien des années, sur le thème du séjour de la Sainte Famille en Égypte, nous avons nécessai- rement croisé “ Abou Sefein ”: il est très présent, au Vieux-Caire, à travers l’église qui lui est dédiée et le couvent de femmes contemplatives qui porte son nom et sur l’emplacement duquel, selon une tradition, la Sainte Famille se serait reposée. “ Abou Sefein ” est un saint très célèbre et incontournable en Égypte. Selon le Synaxaire, il s’appelait Philopater et son nom de baptême était Mercure ; or, il est maintenant généralement invoqué sous ce nom d’ “ Abou Sefein ”, qui signifie “ le père aux deux épées ”; cette appellation se réfère au récit hagiographique qui fait de lui un saint militaire auquel un ange aurait remis une deuxième épée, d’ordre spirituel. Le récit raconte également son martyre, sous l’empereur Dèce, au troisième siècle de notre ère. Jusqu’au quatorzième siècle, l’iconographie le représente, par exemple au monastère Saint-Antoine, en saint cavalier, avec l’ange lui remettant l’épée. Toutefois l’iconographie courante actuellement le montre, toujours en cavalier, mais croisant deux sabres au-dessus de sa tête. Nous essaierons, dans cet article, de remonter à l’origine de cette troublante représentation iconographique, d’analyser et de comprendre son succès et enfin de nous interroger sur sa légitimité.

Effect of lubricants on the properties of tablets compressed from varied size granules
Authors: Hackl Ellen , Ermonlina Irina , Kabova Elena
Published: August 2023

Magnesium stearate (MgSt) is one of the most widely used solid lubricants in oral solid dosage forms. However, MgSt can negatively impact the tablets, decreasing their mechanical properties and lengthening disintegration/dissolution times. The aim of the present study was to compare the effect of MgSt and Sodium Stearyl Fumarate (SSF) lubricants on the physical characteristics of immediate release caffeine tablets compressed using granules of different sizes. Overall, the results demonstrate that using SSF as a lubricant significantly enhances tablet mechanical strength and reduces disintegration/wetting times for all granule sizes used to compress tablets. With smaller granules, SSF tends to be more effective. Over-lubrication with SSF leads to a decrease in tablet hardness as well, though to a significantly lesser extent than over-lubrication with MgSt.

Published: August 2023

Lipid nanoparticles(LNPs) represent an emerging new modality for mRNA delivery. Following administration and interaction with blood constituents, LNPs form a corona complex consisting of proteins adsorbed on the surface altering their stability, biological identity, and fate. Cytocompatibility of the LNPs is an important factor when considering their safety efficacy in delivering the encapsulated drug dose, lipid choice and the specific target cells. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in LNP physical parameters in physiologically-relevant media. Key attributes such as particle size, polydispersity index and zeta-potential were measured using Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) and Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA). Cytocompatibility was assessed via CellTiter-Glo® assay. Following 24-hour incubation of LNPs with Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA), the LNP z-average increased from 92.4 (± 49.0) nm to 131.4 (± 64.9) nm indicating interaction between LNPs and BSA. A decrease in percentage cell viability was demonstrated with increased lipid concentration for MCF-7 and A549 cell lines. This work shows changes in LNP physicochemical properties in the presence of protein and biologically relevant conditions consistent with protein surface adsorption. The cytocompatibility of LNPs can be associated with the type of lipids used in the synthesis of LNPs.
Petroleum as a space for non-translation: Hikmet, Negarestani, Parshchikov
Authors: Korchagin Kirill M.
Published: August 2023

In 1927, Nâzım Hikmet composed several poems based on his impressions of his visit to Azerbaijani capital, the city of Baku. They will be included in the collection Song of the Sun-drinkers (1928) and will soon be translated into Russian. The Baku cycle was one of the first attempts at a symbolic representation of petroleum in Russian poetry, in many ways foreshadowing the later poetics of the subject, which will develop on Russian material only in the 2000s. One can look at these poems by Hikmet as one of the first attempts to create a philosophy of petroleum, which will find its most large-scale embodiment in the philosophical novel “Cyclonopedia” by Reza Negarestani, where petroleum constitutes a new type of subjectivity, simultaneously fluid and explosive. On the other hand, the image of petroleum will play a key role in Alexei Parshchikov’s poem of the same name, where one can also discern echoes of this philosophy in Hikmet’s Baku cycle. For all these authors, petroleum acts as a radical expression of the logic of non-translation: it is a condensed memory of antiquity, which cannot be directly accessed; its mystery cannot be revealed because, in a sense, it contains no mystery. Such a paradoxical semiotics leads all three authors to the idea that petroleum is alien to the human world and has a special inhuman agency.

O gerenciamento dos resíduos sólidos constitui um dos maiores desafios para os municípios brasileiros. Uma vez que envolvem investimentos elevados e quando não geridos com uma performance razoavelmente eficiente acarretam problemas como pontos de descarte irregular. Como estratégia de gestão, a administração pública do Município de São Luís instalou os Ecopontos por diversos distritos como astúcia para a destinação ambientalmente adequada dos resíduos de forma voluntária. Em virtude disso, fez-se o levantamento bibliográfico, registros institucionais e legislação vigente, associada as pesquisas de campo com o objetivo de avaliar os fatores que influenciam o desempenho dos Ecopontos. Nesse cenário, constatou-se que os pontos de descarte irregular ainda são visualizados, principalmente próximo dos Ecopontos, a base de dados é gerenciada de forma acumulativa e a distância é uma variável limitante para os usuários. Todavia o projeto coopera com a recuperação ambiental e paisagística de locais antes utilizados para descarte de resíduos sólidos.
CARACTERIZAÇÃO DOS EFLUENTES TRATADOS EM ESTAÇÕES COMPACTAS PARA REÚSO DIRETO NÃO POTÁVEL URBANO
Authors: Rosa da Silva Aldo César , Oliveira Netto Antonio Pedro de
Published: August 2023

A capital do Estado de Alagoas, apesar de passar por obras de coleta de esgoto, ainda necessita de melhorias no saneamento básico para destinar corretamente o esgoto produzido e evitar a poluição e a contaminação dos seus corpos d’água. Essa pesquisa buscou avaliar a possibilidade de reuso do esgoto tratado por estações descentralizadas no meio urbano, no intuito de minimizar os potenciais contaminantes. A área de estudo envolveu a parte alta do município de Maceió, onde a cobertura por rede pública de coleta de esgotos é deficitária. Foram selecionadas três estações compactas de tratamento de esgoto (ETEs), todas tratando esgoto doméstico em condomínios residenciais privados, com tecnologias de tratamento diferentes: anaeróbia (ETE “A”), aeróbia (ETE “B”) e mista (anaeróbia/aeróbia) (ETE “C), com a finalidade de caracterizar e comparar as concentrações efluentes com os padrões para as modalidades de reuso constantes na Resolução n° 54/2005 do Conselho Nacional de Recursos Hídricos (CNRH). O tratamento anaeróbio apresentou boa remoção DBO e DQO de 71,54% e 72,34%, respectivamente, mas foi ineficiente na remoção de nutrientes e patogênicos. O tratamento aeróbio apresentou baixa remoção de DBO e DQO, esperada pela sua natureza, com valores médios de 67,37% e 66,72%, respectivamente, e foi ineficiente na remoção de nutrientes e patogênicos. O tratamento misto apresentou boa remoção de DBO e DQO de 77,57% e 75,59%, mas não promoveu remoção de nutrientes e boa desinfecção. No geral, o efluente da ETE “A” atendeu exigências para reuso no meio urbano para os parâmetros fósforo total e pH. O efluente da ETE “B” atendeu exigências para reuso no meio urbano para os parâmetros fósforo total, pH, nitrito e nitrato. E o efluente da ETE “C” atendeu exigências para os parâmetros fósforo total, pH, nitrito, nitrato e coliformes fecais. Diante dos resultados encontrados nas três ETEs monitoradas faz-se necessário adotar pós-tratamento vislumbrando o reuso no meio urbano, visto que essas estações não são fabricadas e otimizadas para prática de reuso.
VERMICOMPOSTAGEM MELHORADA COMO FERRAMENTA PARA A GESTÃO SUSTENTÁVEL DE RESÍDUOS AGROINDUSTRIAIS
Authors: Grazik Héber , Batista Reis Joice , Pavan Korf Eduardo
Published: August 2023

O setor da agroindústria é um alto gerador de resíduos orgânicos que podem impactar severamente a sociedade e meio ambiente quando dispostos de forma inadequada, e for realizada uma gestão ineficiente. Nesse sentido, tem se intensificado a busca por soluções socioambientais para a destinação destes resíduos e diversos estudos apontam o uso da vermicompostagem como técnica de valoração, entretanto ainda apresentam lacunas com relação a problemática e os impactos da composição dos subprodutos gerados. A presença de metais e nutrientes podem ser um problema para a utilização como fertilizante, pois altas concentrações contaminam o solo e água, ocasionando impactos negativos ao meio ambiente e a saúde humana. Diante disso, o objetivo desse trabalho foi utilizar a vermicompostagem com adição de microrganismos eficientes (EM) como solução para a gestão socioambiental de resíduos agroindustriais. A pesquisa foi feita por meio de um estudo de caso em uma propriedade rural, em que realizou-se três tratamentos com resíduos de mistura de estercos (galinha, caprino e ovino), capim (Pennisetum purpureum) e palha seca de milho. No tratamento I, foi adicionado apenas as minhocas para vermicompostagem (Eisenia fetida) e no tratamento II e III além desta, adicionou-se a concentração de 4 mL/L e 8 mL/L de EM. Os resultados indicam que a técnica é viável para a gestão dos resíduos da agroindústria, produzindo um composto com reduzida presença de metais e maiores teores de nutrientes quando comparado com o composto produzido sem a presença de EM.
A PERCEPÇÃO DA COMUNIDADE ACADÊMICA A RESPEITO DA GESTÃO DE RESÍDUOS SÓLIDOS NO SETOR LITORAL DA UFPR
Authors: Rohrich Sandra Simm , Pereira Juliane Borges , Gonçalves Aline de Oliveira
Published: August 2023

O objetivo deste trabalho foi descrever a percepção da comunidade acadêmica a respeito da gestão de resíduos sólidos no Setor Litoral da Universidade Federal do Paraná, localizado no município de Matinhos, no litoral do Estado. O artigo apresentou conceitos como sustentabilidade, gestão ambiental, políticas públicas e gestão de resíduos sólidos para articular as perspectivas de análise. O estudo realizado justifica-se devido à complexidade no atendimento dos requisitos para a gestão de resíduos em um ambiente dinâmico como um campus universitário, de tal modo que se reflitam nas rotinas de sua comunidade acadêmica. Além da justificativa prática, a sustentabilidade nas IES é um campo de estudo que vem se ampliando em âmbito internacional e nacional. A metodologia aplicada foi de natureza quantitativa e descritiva, uma vez que visou retratar de forma extensiva a percepção ambiental de estudantes, técnico-administrativos e docentes do Setor. Entre os resultados obtidos está que a comunidade acadêmica percebe a existência das lixeiras para a separação de resíduos, mas declara que nem sempre faz o descarte correto dos rejeitos. O público analisado também não demonstrou conhecer e estar envolvido com as práticas para a sustentabilidade nas Instituições de Ensino Superior. As conclusões indicam que, para que a comunidade acadêmica possa ser um agente de mudanças na sociedade, se faz necessária a promoção de ações de educação e sensibilização ambiental, assim como a ampla divulgação do Plano de Logística Sustentável da UFPR.

Published: August 2023

O desenvolvimento de “agriculturas alternativas”, que pudessem considerar as práticas agropecuárias tradicionais e constituíssem uma agenda de pesquisas, possibilitou a redescoberta e ascensão de um modelo de agricultura referência à sustentabilidade. Esta pesquisa buscou compreender a sustentabilidade no processo de gestão em sistema orgânico de produção, a partir do estudo de caso em uma propriedade certificada por auditoria. Utilizando o método SWOT de diagnóstico para planejamento estratégico foram elaborados indicadores para os principais setores organizacionais. Apesar dos parâmetros socioambientais estarem em consonância com as diretrizes apresentadas pela Lei nº 10.831/2003 e certificada por auditoria, o que permite evidenciar a importância da certificação orgânica no aprimoramento da gestão de processos produtivos nesses sistemas, a avaliação dos resultados permitiu identificar os pontos críticos que podem conduzir à insustentabilidade da empresa e discuti-los junto aos participantes dos processos produtivos na empresa, além de destacar considerações a respeito do processo administrativo da empresa estudada, bem como sobre o método e fundamentos teóricos utilizados. Os resultados fornecem informações ao aprimoramento gerencial e institucional do setor, permitindo o delineamento mais específico de futuras pesquisas.

O objetivo do presente trabalho foi analisar a aplicabilidade do uso da água condensada por aparelhos de ar condicionado no Instituto Federal de Mato Grosso do Sul (IFMS) – campus Corumbá como uma alternativa para promover a Sustentabilidade na Administração Pública. Pois essa água pode ser utilizada de forma sustentável e por consequência, essa prática sustentável favorece que haja economia não apenas financeira, mas também dos recursos naturais, nesse caso água potável do planeta. A pesquisa teve como primeiro passo realizar o levantamento de alguns parâmetros a respeito dos aparelhos e sua utilização, em seguida, por amostragem procedeu a determinação da vazão de água condensada pelos aparelhos e por fim, foi realizada uma análise econômica básica, buscando identificar e quantificar o percentual de economia na conta da referida fatura de água mensal e anual do instituto. Concluiu-se, que o volume de água gerada pelos aparelhos de ar condicionado no IFMS Corumbá é cerca de 25 mil litros por mês, uma quantidade considerável, chegando a cerca de 16,5% do consumo médio atual. Além disso, percebeu-se que o uso dessa água proporciona a redução da dependência exclusiva das fontes tradicionais de abastecimento e por consequência economia financeira. Contribuindo assim para a vida no planeta, ocasionando menores gastos aos cofres públicos e consequentemente a sustentabilidade.

Harmful genes, and sneaky, too: Genetic hitchhiking in the human genome
Authors: Matheson Stephen
Published: August 2023

Genetic hitchhiking is thought to be an inevitable result of strong positive selection in a population. The basic idea is that if a particular gene is strongly selected for (as opposed to selected against), then the chunk of the genome that carries that gene will become very common in the population. The result is a local loss of genetic diversity: all (or nearly all) of the individuals in the population will have that same chunk of genetic information, whereas before the selection process...

El libro de Lea Ypi, con la mitad de su vida en Albania y la otra mitad en Londres (profesora en la London School of Economics) sugiere, a través de un reato autobiográfico una comparación entre el Este y el Oeste europeos, con la coincidencia llamativa de que ambos sistemas apelan a la palabra libertad como su mayor autojustificación. Ello sugiere al autor unas reflexiones sobre el sentido cristiano de esa palabra. Usando un género literario epistolar que permite al autor dirigirse a su interlocutora en términos de fraternidad.

Wstęp: Zauważono, iż obecność beztlenowców jest związana z zakażeniami głębszymi i o cięższym przebiegu. Niewielka liczba doniesień literaturowych sprawia jed- nak, że infekcje beztlenowe często nie są uwzględniane w terapii.
Cel pracy: Analiza udziału beztlenowej flory bakteryjnej w etiologii zakażeń ran trudno gojących. Dodatkowo oceniono wrażliwość uzyskanych izolatów na leki przeciwbakteryjne.
Materiał i metody: Analizie poddano 1053 posiewów beztle- nowych pobranych od 611 pacjentów w latach 2018–2021. Wszystkie próbki były pobierane z ran z klinicznymi cechami zakażenia metodą biopsji tkankowej. Każdą ranę przygotowywano do posiewu zgodnie z koncepcją „higieny rany”.
Wyniki: Jałowych było 81,7% posiewów, a dodatni wynik posiewu uzyskano w 18,3% próbek. Stwierdzono 229 izolatów beztlenowych (13 rodzajów bakterii), wśród których najliczniej występowały: Bacteroides spp. (47,2%), Peptoniphilus spp. (14,8%), Prevotella spp. (11,8%) i Finegoldia spp. (10,0%). Odsetek izolatów opornych na metronidazol wynosił 2,2%, na amoksycylinę z kwasem klawulanowym 7,0% a na klindamycynę 24,6%. Analizując lekowrażliwość najczęściej izolowanego drobnoustroju beztlenowego – Bacteroides fragilis, stwierdzono 25,4% izolatów opornych na klindamycynę i nie stwierdzono oporności metronidazol.
Wnioski: Flora beztlenowa może być odpowiedzialna za niepowodzenia leczenia przeciwbakteryjnego zakażeń ran trudno gojących się. Uwzględnienie bakterii beztlenowych w procesie diagnostyki i leczenia może istotnie skrócić całkowity czas terapii. W przypadku podejrzenia etiologii beztlenowej w terapii empirycznej najlepszym wyborem wydaje się metronidazol.
Zastosowanie terapii podciśnieniowej z płukaniem roztworem podchlorynu o stężeniu 800 ppm w leczeniu zakażenia miejsca operowanego i zaburzeń gojenia powłok brzusznych u pacjentki z chorobą Leśniowskiego-Crohna o ciężkim przebiegu

Choroba Leśniowskiego-Crohna jest czynnikiem ryzyka występowania zakażenia miejsca operowanego. W pracy przedstawiono przypadek 62-letniej pacjentki z powikłaną chorobą Leśniowskiego-Crohna. Z powodu ostrego rzutu choroby, miejscowego zaawansowania choroby, obecności przetok i ropni okołostomijnych, a także przepukliny okołostomijnej u pacjentki wystąpiło głębokie zakażenie miejsca operowanego, wymagające trzykrotnej reoperacji. W przypadku licznych, dużych ran obejmujących znaczną powierzchnię powłok brzusznych z obecnością stomii zastosowanie terapii podciśnieniowej z płukaniem pozwala na optymalizację procesu leczenia i gojenia rany. Odseparowanie skażonego środowiska stomii od łożysk ran wydaje się kluczowym elementem powodzenia leczenia. Odpowiedni dobór płynu płuczącego umożliwia intensyfikację leczenia zakażenia w pierwszej fazie wystąpienia zakażenia miejsca operowanego oraz sprzyja dalszemu postępowi gojenia ran.

Published: August 2023

The global economy faces the challenges of climate change that generates the climate risk, which essentially affects the operational activity of power companies. The power sector is both, one of the most important greenhouse gases emitters, and an industry especially exposed to widely perceived climate risk. Changes in the natural environment cause negative impacts on the energy infrastructure (physical risk), while regulatory changes and society sentiments (transition risk) reshape the conditions of operational profitability of power companies. These phenomena, currently accelerating changes in the global economy, persuaded the authors to undertake a study on necessary changes in the core activities of power companies, which should secure the resilience of their profits in an uncertain future. The authors performed a comprehensive study of literature concerning climate risk exposure in the power sector by researching operational adjustments made by leading power companies in the green transformation process. To meet the abovementioned objectives of the article, the authors present the results of their research in the part of the article that discusses the recommendations for the necessary changes of the core activities of power companies. They intend to identify universal solutions that can be applied by power companies operating in the globalized economy. This requires a long-term approach to the process of re-designing the operational activities of power companies, which would secure physical assets responsible for the continuity of their operations, and hedge future profits against transition risk.
