The health status of the hoof in dairy cattle is crucial for their overall well-being and productivity. Hoof diseases and lesions can lead to lameness, decreased milk production, and economic losses for dairy farmers. Traditional methods of assessing hoof health involve manual inspection and trimming, which can be time-consuming and subjective. This research article explores the potential use of a phone-connected infrared camera as a non-invasive and objective tool for assessing the health status of the hoof in dairy cattle, by investigating the association between foot skin temperature (FST) and locomotion scoring (LS) in a group of Romanian Black Spotted dairy cows. LS was carried out using the mobile app developed by the Wisconsin University (Locomotion Scorer). The thermograms were collected during afternoon milking and processed using the FLIR software. Overall, 73.9% of the cows were scored as non-lame, while 13.04% presented signs of foot lesions. The highest temperature observed in the interdigital area, in the lame group, by thermography, was T°=36.5°C. In conclusion, monitoring hoof health status in dairy cattle is essential for ensuring their well-being and productivity. The use of an infrared thermal camera for the assessment of foot surface temperature has shown promise as a noninvasive tool for evaluating hoof health.

In recent years, a new type of cow's milk, called "A2 milk," has been introduced to the market. This type of milk was first marketed in New Zealand and has since gained a presence in the markets of several countries. It mainly contains two types of β-casein: the A1 and A2 variants. In recent years, researchers have studied the possible implications of the composition of the β casein protein fraction for the manifestation of a new intolerance: milk protein intolerance. Casein is the main component of milk proteins, of which approximately 30-35% is beta-casein. A2 beta-casein has proline at position 67 of the protein amino acid chain, while A1 beta-casein has histidine at that position; this is associated with a possibility of gastrointestinal discomfort due to β-casomorphin-7 (BCM-7) released during gastrointestinal digestion. The purpose of this review is to provide an update on the impact of A2 milk on human health as well as on its many technological qualities for the production of dairy products with improved health benefits for consumers.

Diagnosis of the gallbladder oedema is difficult during the clinical examination because the clinical signs are not specific for this disease. The causes of this pathology are multiple and can be divided into emergencies (such as anaphylactic shock, right-sided hearth failure, pericardial effusion) and chronic pathologies (such cholecystitis, pancreatitis or immune-mediated hemolytic anemia). Imagistics methods complete the information of the clinical exam and ultrasound is considered the golden standard for diagnosing this pathology. Normally, at the ultrasound exam, the gallbladder has a hyperechoic wall, with a diameter of 2-3 mm; while in case of gallbladder oedema, the wall is thick and has a triple stratification, with 2 hyperechoic rows, separated by a hypoechoic line. This pathognomonic description of the gallbladder oedema is also known as the ‘Halo Sign’ or ‘Double Rim Effect’. Making a correct differential for the appearance of the sign is vital for the outcome of the case. The main focus is to exclude every emergency cause in order to start treating the chronic pathologies. This paper presents the pathologies leading to gallbladder oedema, met at the Radiology and Emergencies Departments from the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Iasi during the period march 2020 – may 2022. The clinical case presented was diagnosed and treated at the Center of Endoscopy and Minimally Invasive Surgery Bucharest.

Published: May 2024

Pancreatitis represents the most often met pathology of the exocrine pancreas. It can be acute or chronic depending on the percentage of lesions to the parenchyma. The causes of the pathology aren’t fully understood yet but it has been observed that inadequate nutrition has a really important role. Some breeds are thought to be more predisposed to this pathology such as: Yorkshire Terrier, Cocker, Dachshund. The clinical signs can range widely; many patients are subclinical (especially the ones with chronic pancreatitis), while others can have a variety of gastro-intestinal signs. We can divide this signs into characteristic ones (such as vomiting, diarrhea, apathy, abdominal pain) and uncharacteristic signs (such as ascites, jaundice, fever). Seeing the complexity of this pathology, just a simple clinical examination won’t help us diagnose it, but will give us clues for what paraclinical exams to take. This article will present the correlation between ultrasound imagistic findings considered to be the main tool for examination of the pancreatic structure and canine pancreatic lipase (also known as CpL), considered to be the golden standard for detecting pancreatic disorders.

The purpose of this work is to monitor the state of bee health through morphoclinical and laboratory examination of bees on samples of live bees and honeycombs with brood for the prevention and control of diseases in bees in order to include them in a study on the impact of the non-ionizing electromagnetic radiations on bees. Samples were collected during the active season 2023, and morpho-clinically and laboratory examined according to OIE regulations from 9 private apiaries (PH, AG, TR, CL, VN, IS, DB, VL and IF) from which we collected 18 samples. The laboratory results revealed the existence of some diseases in 6 apiaries (66.67%), as follows: a unique evolution (suspected foulbrood disease in one apiary) (11.11%), five apiaries with mixed conditions (55,56%) (varroosis, nosemosis, chalkbrood, and suspected poisoning), and three apiaries were diagnosed as clinically healthy (33.33%). Studying the influence of nonionizing radiation on bees has wider implications for ecology and the environment, as bees play a crucial role in pollination and maintaining ecosystems. The interaction between bees and electromagnetic radiation is a complex and multifactorial issue that may explain the diversity of conclusions in the available studies. Therefore, studies are needed in Romania to better understand the connection between non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation and the decline of bee populations (Collony Colapse Disorder).

In recent decades, concern over emerging organic contaminants in the environment has grown considerably because of their potentially harmful effects on organisms and ecosystems. These synthetic compounds are widely used in modern life-style and due to improvements in analytical technologies, we are now able to identify and quantify them even in small concentrations. One of the most important pharmaceutical contaminants is antibiotics, of which more than half belong to the class of beta-lactams. This research aimed to determine the beta-lactam antibiotics residues in surface water (rivers) and groundwater, which serve as public or private sources of drinking water, as well as in urban wastewater. The samples were collected from different places throughout the Western part of Romania and analyzed using commercially available ELISA kits for the detection of beta-lactams in liquid samples. The results show that betalactam antibiotics are ubiquitous in all categories of water and establish the ELISA method as an acceptable screening tool for antibiotic residues.

I consider the support for this boy to be very successful, thanks also to the cooperation with the boy's family. The parents show great interest in their son and also try to support him and cooperate with the school. They attend Biofeedback Therapy with their son, a clinical speech therapist, and as part of gross motor skills support, they also regularly swim in the pool. The boy therefore receives all possible support that a child with SVP can have. The mutual interdependence between all the participants works here, that is. family, AP, teacher, but also a group of children from the class. Thanks to this cooperation, the vision of inclusive education is fulfilled, not only to educate and integrate the child, but also to give him a sense of belonging, a sense of the realization that even if he knows that he is different and stands out, others like him and accept him as it is. This example of inclusion seems to me to be beneficial for all of the above

Soldier's service with God in defense of the Homeland
Authors: Klimek Krzysztof
Published: May 2024

Thinking about military service identifies this concept with service to values (as well as to other people) and what is considered particularly valuable, important for a soldier, for the nation, for the Homeland. Here we have in mind those values that determine the essence and meaning of the soldier's service, and which are, in a way, the axiological compass of his actions. Firstly, these are words-values placed on military banners (God - Honor - Homeland), and secondly - the rota of the military oath sworn by soldiers (in the presence of the banner), as a set of social, moral and transcendental values. The considerations in this study will refer to transcendental values and thinking about military service in terms of the concept of "service to God". Therefore, the problem of the presence of God in the military service of the Republic of Poland as our homeland will be analyzed. In particular, it is about the reference to God, i.e. the words "so help me God" uttered by soldiers during the military oath on the military banner, on which (next to Homeland and Honor) there is the word God. Therefore, service and sacrifice for the Homeland, but with the support of Providence - in a word, service to the Homeland and God, for the glory of the Republic of Poland and God. Also with the spiritual support of chaplains and the entire military chaplaincy. Key words: God, honor, homeland, soldiers, military service, military chaplaincy.

During a series of field surveys on several coconut-planting provinces in the Philippines, scale insects, including mealybugs, were observed to attack the infructescence and fruits of coconuts, Cocos nucifera L. (Arecaceae). Three families of Coccomorpha, composed of six species of Diaspididae (armored scale insects), including the serious pest Aspidiotus rigidus Reyne, one species of Pseudococcidae [the mealybugs, Nipaecoccus nipae (Maskell)]; and one species of Monophlebidae (giant or cottony cushion scales, Icerya sp.), were noted to attack on coconut infructescences. Two species, Aspidiotus destructor Signoret and Lepidosaphes sp. aff. tapleyi were observed to feed on the fruit directly. Pseudaulacaspis pentagona (Targioni Tozzetti) and P. sp. aff. cockerelli (Cooley) were observed to feed on the leaf petiole and infructescence peduncle. Nipaecoccus nipae (Maskell) and Icerya sp. were found on the calyx, while Hemiberlesia lataniae (Signoret) were found in pedicels and peduncles of the infructescences.

Cowpea is an important drought-tolerant crop that is grown mainly in Africa. The objective of this study was to conduct association mapping of drought tolerance phenotype with seedling and yield-related traits in cowpeas. A total of 60 cowpea accessions were used in the study. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were discovered through genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS). In the primary pipeline analysis, fragments of poor-quality sequences with reproducibility below 90% and read depths lower than 3.5 for SNPs or 5 for presence–absence markers were filtered out. Approximately 2.5 million sequences per barcode/sample were identified and used in marker calling. Association mapping was conducted using single-marker regression (SMR) in Q Gene, and the general linear model (GLM) and mixed linear model (MLM) built in TASSEL v5.0. The population of the cowpea accessions was analyzed using STRUCTURE 2.3.4. Inferred number of populations (ΔK) of cowpea accessions grown in the greenhouse and glasshouse were six (6) and seven (7), respectively. Approximately 2.5 million sequences per barcode/sample were identified and used in marker calling. The total number of SNPs in the raw file was 438,198. After a quality control procedure, a variant call format (vcf). One SNP marker, was associated with number of pods (NP) with a p value < 0.001 while fifty SNP markers, were associated with pod weight (PWT) at p < 0.001. The same number of four SNP markers, were associated with average seeds per pod (AVSPD) at p < 0.001 and also with pod length (PL). Five SNP markers, were associated with pod width (PWDTH) at p < 0.001. Major differences among the significantly associated SNPs were observed in the two environments which were under different temperature conditions. The 65 SNP markers identified can be used in cowpea molecular breeding to select for drought tolerant phenotypes in cowpea through marker assisted selection (MAS).
Sur l'absorption de l'ordonnance dans la loi d'approbation ou de rejet dans le cadre des dispositions de la Constitution Roumaine

Les ordonnances du Gouvernement de Roumanie, émises par voie de loi d'habilitation si la loi l'exige, respectivement les ordonnances d'urgence, sont soumises à l'approbation du Parlement. Même s'ils sont entrés en vigueur, avec leur publication au Journal Officiel de Roumanie, la dernière condition que le législateur exige pour que l'ordonnance continue son activité, est son approbation, une procédure qui n'exclut en aucun cas son respect. La jurisprudence constitutionnelle a marqué le moment de la procédure législative d'approbation ou de rejet d'une ordonnance à la suite du débat parlementaire comme le moment où l'ordonnance est absorbée dans l'acte législatif. Mais il n’a pas précisé comment cela se faisait. Eh bien, on sait quand l'absorption commence à produire des effets juridiques, à savoir l'adoption d'ordonnances lors du débat parlementaire ou la publication au Journal Officiel de Roumanie de la loi d'approbation.
Phone numbers, emojis and GIF files as electronic signatures
Authors:   Legal Consultant - Romanian Parliament, Phd Student at the West University of Timișoara, Law Faculty: ROMANIA, Rusu Andrei
Published: May 2024

Due to constant technological progress, the conclusion of electronic contracts has become common. Thus, electronic signatures are used to identify the parties and to express their agreement regarding the content of the contract. The use of these electronic signatures led to emojis being used in electronic contracts. The judicial cases in which these types of electronic signatures are apparently used, must be analyzed, as it is necessary to determine the probative power of the electronic document that contains this specific signature. We would also like to mention that a theoretical analysis of GIF files and phone numbers as electronic signatures is necessary in order to prevent certain legal interpretation problems that might arise in future litigation.

Published: May 2024

The aim of the study is to examine, interpret, and explain the Hungarian legal regulations related to the patients' right to self-determination. The right to self-determination is one of the most extensively regulated patient right in the Healthcare Act. This right is of utmost importance, since it – together with the right to information – assists the patients in being able to make responsible decisions regarding their treatment. The article presents what the right to self-determination means, outlines its limitations, and also addresses who is entitled to give consent to healthcare interventions. The examination of the right to selfdetermination is considered a current topicactual, as evidenced by the legal disputes related to it in the courts.
The judicial expertise - a mandatory part of legal investigations

Both the Civil Procedure Code and the Criminal Procedure Code as well as their application in criminal, civil, commercial and contraventional cases, state the use of scientific evidence in finding out the truth, consisting in the judicial expertise. Unless the law expressly provides for the obligation to carry out an expertise, and we consider here the forensic expertise - meant to establish the days of medical care provided, or the cause of death, or establishing the identity of a person based on the expertise of biological traces, in various other cases the procedural legislation does not oblige the court to administer scientific evidence, leaving the choice to its discretion or, where appropriate, to the criminal investigation body. However, even if there are no provisions that expressly oblige the use of judicial expertise, we consider that both the investigation and prosecution body, the policeman or the prosecutor, as well as the courts, are obliged to order the performance of a judicial expertise when the facts deduced through the investigation or judgment cannot be clarified otherwise than on scientific basis and using the knowledge of experts in the respective domain. Beyond the classical forensic expertise of writing, namely the graphoscopic expertise, of ballistic expertise and automotive technical expertise on the dynamics of the occurrence of driving accidents - our list is not exhaustive - which are commonly carried out in both civil files, but especially in criminal cases there are situations in which we believe that it is necessary to administer scientific evidence to find out the truth. No matter how well prepared the person who finds and investigates a contravention or a crime, is, or those who are called upon to rule on civil cases, they cannot rule on technical issues, the existence of chemicals or possibly prohibited substances, as well as the overcoming of accepted decibels or the existence of products that could be considered waste - and the list could continue with other examples. However, in practice the tendency of those called to perform the act of justice is increasingly observed, to be limited to the mere findings made “with their own senses” by agents, local police or national police workers, employees of the Environmental Guard. These so-called technical findings or observations do not have the value of judicial expertise and cannot supplement such evidence by scientific quality or by objectivity, as long as they are drawn up by individuals who do not have the necessary and recognised level of scientific training, and are part of the bodies who only observe and note the facts and sanction them or send them to competent bodies for resolution.
Consistent with European jurisprudence, we believe that finding out the truth involves the
use of independent and objective judicial experts, highly trained specialists, or recognized
and independent laboratories of expertise.

The Indian Peak-Caliente Caldera Complex, or IPCCC, is an ideal site to study how large-scale tectonic forces can influence mineralogy on a local scale. This research was completed and compiled by the Tectonics and Mineralogy classes at Southern Utah University during a joint class field study and subsequent laboratory analyses. During the field trip, the main focuses were to observe caldera collapse relationships and ignimbrite features and to collect samples at Condor Canyon and English Canyon, two sites near the border between Nevada and Utah within the IPCCC. After the field trip, the Tectonics class completed a detailed literature review of the overall tectonic evolution of the region while the Mineralogy students petrographically analyzed the collected samples. This report provides a summary of the results, including mineralogical descriptions; an interpretation of a piece-meal, or piston-like, collapse of the caldera complex; and a connection between the local geology and the regional tectonic setting.
South Asian Conflicts and Regional Security in the Context of Pakistan-India Relations: A Political Analysis
Authors: Parveen Saima
Published: May 2024

Pakistan and India are geographically proximate and possess a shared historical and cultural background. Consequently, they ought to possess the most favourable interactions, although they have consistently exhibited hostility towards one another. The subject of Kashmir holds significant importance for both states involved. The conflict has occurred on three separate occasions. Despite the existence of significant and effective endeavours aimed at fostering peace, the fundamental challenges that perpetuate the strained relations between the two nations remain unresolved. Pakistan has consistently demonstrated a willingness to propose potential improvements. However, India does not consistently accord them due consideration. India and Pakistan have maintained their independence for a period of over 70 years; nonetheless, they exhibit a lack of concern towards addressing enduring challenges such as the Kashmir dispute and the water crisis. The region of South Asia is predominantly characterised by peace and stability for the two major nations. The inability of the two primary actors in South Asia to reach a peaceful resolution to their respective issues has significant implications for the local security framework.
