Authors: García-Parra Miguel Ángel , Amado-Rodríguez Jeimmi Liliana , Hernández-Criado Juan Carlos
Published: September 2024

Quinoa is an Andean grain recognized for its high nutritional value and its ability to tolerate extreme environmental conditions. Most publications on this species have focused on agronomic or agroindustrial aspects, leaving uncertainties about the relationship between biological yield and compositional characteristics of the grain. Therefore, the objective of this study was to analyze the biological performance and agroindustrial properties of the seeds of three quinoa cultivars widely used in Colombia. A completely randomized design was used with the Pasankalla, Soraca and Titicaca cultivars. The first phase involved the evaluation of the physiological behavior of the plants under controlled conditions. In the second phase, seed production and some compositional characteristics were determined in the laboratory. In general, the three cultivars showed significant diversity and differences in morphological, physiological and biochemical traits. The Titicaca cultivar presented the earliest maturity, taking 115.6 days to reach harvest, while Soraca was the cultivar with the highest production, achieving 321 g of seeds per plant. Regarding the characteristics of the grain, the Soraca and Pasankalla cultivars had the highest protein content, with values of 14.33 and 13.76%, respectively.

Calla lily (Zantedeschia spp.) is an herbaceous flowering plant that belongs to the Araceae family, with worldwide distribution. Native to the swampy or mountainous regions of South Africa, it is valued as an ornamental plant due to its extraordinary spathe and decorative leaves. However, its production has decreased due to the presence of diseases. In vitro culture of plant cells and tissues has been successfully applied to precisely diagnose and control diseases to produce disease-free plants. This study analyzes information from in vitro techniques applied to this crop, highlighting phytopathological aspects. It considers the different stages of in vitro culture and the process of obtaining and propagating healthy or pathogen-free plants. In vitro culture has proven to be an effective tool for rapid clonal propagation and multiplication of Zantedeschia spp. Sanitary management before the in vitro culture is recommended.

Authors: Silva Serrão Fernanda , Silva Mariana Simão Costa da , Soares Leite Daniela
Published: September 2024

Sexually transmitted infections are among society's most recurring public health dilemmas. Syphilis is aninfectious disease exclusive to humans, transmitted through unprepared sexual contact. It is estimated thatannually, 11 million new cases of syphilis occur in adults aged 15 to 49 years worldwide. The objective ofthe research was to identify the epidemiological profile of syphilis acquired in the states of the NorthernRegion of Brazil between the years 2011 and 2021. This is observational research with a quantitative andretrospective approach, with data collection from the SINAN available on DATASUS. Sociodemographicvariables were analyzed: sex, age, race, education level, and diagnostic criteria. It was found that between2011 and 2021, in the states of the Northern Region of Brazil, 50,810 cases of acquired syphilis werereported. The state of Amazonas had the highest notification rate with 18,709 (36.82%) cases, followed bythe state of Pará with 13,102 (25.79%) notifications and Tocantins with 6,728 (13.24%) reported cases. Theyear 2018 presented the highest incidence rate of the period, decreasing from 2019. Thus, the profile ofsyphilis acquired in the North Region was male individuals aged between 20 and 39 years, mixed race, withunknown education, and in relation to the diagnostic criteria, laboratory diagnosis presented the highest rateof notifications. In this way, the need to promote actions with the aim of clarifying sexual health and offeringeffective measures to combat syphilis in the most affected population is evident, as well as it is essential toreevaluate the mandatory fields for filling out the notification and investigation forms of the SINAN, as theyrepresent an essential source for determining health indicators.

Published: September 2024

O diagnóstico preciso feito o  mais precocemente possível é de suma importância para definir o prognóstico e tratamento adequado da leucemia, e nos últimos anos, novos critérios para o diagnóstico e monitoramento das leucemias são formulados, por sua vez, a citometria de fluxo tornou-se padrão ouro para esses fins, uma vez que sua análise é feita através dos antígenos presentes nas células, conferindo maior especifidade e precisão que a análise citomorfológica. O presente estudo teve como objetivo, realizar uma revisão integrativa sobre a importância da imunofenotipagem por citometria de fluxo para o diagnóstico diferencial dos tipos de leucemia. Durante a pesquisa foram utilizados os operadores booleanos “AND” e “OR” com os seguintes descritores: leucemia aguda; leucemia crônica; citometria de fluxo e imunofenotipagem nas bases de dados do Pubmed, LILACS, SCIELO, Google Acadêmico e livros pertinentes ao tema publicados entre 2013 e 2023 que entornavam a seguinte pergunta norteadora: “Qual a importância da imunofenotipagem por citometria de fluxo no diagnóstico das leucemias e quais são os principais marcadores presentes em cada tipo de leucemia?”. Como resultados, foram obtidos diversos imunofenótipos identificados pela imunofenotipagem apresentados de acordo com o tipo e subtipo de leucemia. O CD13 e CD33, por exemplo, foram um dos principais marcadores presentes na leucemia mieloide aguda, sendo então definidos como um dos principais marcadores para selecionar células da linhagem mieloide. Na LLA de células B também obteve dois marcadores importante para definir a linhagem celular, CD19 e CD22. Portanto, concluiu-se que a imunofenotipagem é um exame de extrema importância para o diagnóstico preciso das leucemias, visto que a análise citomorfológica das células nem sempre é precisa e conclusiva, diferente da imunofenotipagem que possui alta precisão e especifidade por identificar o antígeno presente na célula cancerosa.

A ansiedade no ambiente odontológico é um problema bastante comum e pode ser conceituada como uma resposta emocional atrelada a sentimentos de nervosismo, tensão e preocupação frente ao tratamento odontológico. O manejo do paciente ansioso é uma etapa fundamental que garante o sucesso do tratamento odontológico, nesse sentido, o profissional deve estar ciente dos métodos ao seu alcance, principalmente no que se diz respeito ao protocolo de sedação consciente por meio de benzodiazepínicos. Com base nisso, o objetivo desse trabalho foi discutir as estratégias utilizadas em consultórios odontológicos para tratar a ansiedade e o medo em pacientes. Após levantamento na literatura foi possível perceber que o medo e ansiedade podem, juntas, implicar em grandes prejuízos para o andamento do tratamento odontológico uma vez que esses são fatores que contribuem para uma maior evasão de pacientes dentro dos consultórios odontológicos. É necessário detectar os mínimos comportamentos que sejam tendenciosos a tais sentimentos e assim, em conjunto com o paciente, procurar estratégias para minimizar as consequências advindas de traumas passados que são revividos no momento dos procedimentos. Dessa forma, foi possível concluir que é preciso que o cirurgião-dentista tenha capacidade de identificar tais comportamentos e buscar meios para inibi-los, muitas das vezes utilizando-se de terapias farmacológicas com benzodiazepínicos para minimizar os efeitos do medo e da ansiedade sob o paciente traumático.

Authors:   Taras Shevchenko National University of Kyiv, Kyiv, Ukraine, Arskyi Nikita
Published: September 2024

Complex numbers whose real and imaginary parts are integers are called Gaussian integers. In this article, the well-known arithmetic functions—the number, sum and product of divisors—are generalized to Gaussian integers. For this functions, the formulae for calculation that use the prime factorization were derived, and some properties of these functions that concern associative or conjugate Gaussian integers were established. Obtained were also the formulae of the number, sum and product of all divisors of a Gaussian integer that are themselves divisible by a certain number. The usefulness of the obtained results are illustrated in the solutions to some problems.

A Digital Ruble Platform as an Object of Financial and Legal Regulation
Authors: Khromchenko M. D.
Published: September 2024

The paper examines the issues of legal regulation of a digital ruble platform, which is considered as an element of the national payment system, information system, and a set of financial technologies. The author analyzes the legal nature of the information platform as a general concept for varieties of digital platforms. The conclusion is made about the need to consolidate the legislative definition of the information platform. The paper also examines the legal status of the platform operator, platform participant and platform users. It is concluded that the platform operator has a special functional function, since he is solely responsible for any processes related to the operation of the digital ruble platform. The author also focuses on the problem of blocking remote banking services due to non-compliance with legislation on combating money laundering and terrorist financing (AML/CFT). It is assumed that the judicial practice concerning challenging the blocking of remote banking services will not change due to the introduction of the digital form of the national currency. It is pointed out that there are no agreements on interaction between the Bank of Russia and Rosfinmonitoring in terms of control measures under AML/CFT in the circulation of the digital form of the national currency, since the relevant risks have not been examined. It is concluded that cross-border money transfers in the form of digital national currencies are promising, but the author determines a number of problems related to the technical feasibility and legal regulation of the processes of opening accounts for non-residents and transferring funds.
On the Concept of Artificial Intelligence and the Legal Regime of AI-Generated Results without the Creative Participation of an Individual
Authors: Borisova L. B.
Published: September 2024

The paper examines the concept of “artificial intelligence”. It is proposed that when building a definition of this concept we proceed from the “black box” principle, which, according to the author, will make such definition universal and independent of the level of current technological development.

The author investigates the question of whether a work generated by artificial intelligence without the creative participation of an individual can be equated with works protected by copyright. Based on the concept of recognition of copyright on works of science, literature or art based on the creative result proposed in the legal doctrine, the author concluded that AI-generated works are comparable to the results of human intellectual activity.

The main approaches to determining the legal regime of AI-generated works in domestic legal doctrine and foreign legislation are considered. The author proposes an approach to regulating copyright on the works in question, similar to the legal regime for the protection of works of science, literature or art after the death of the author.
The Relationship between Private and Public Law Principles in Energy Legislation
Authors: Svirkov S. A.
Published: September 2024

The paper examines the problems of the relationship between private law and public law principles in energy legislation. Based on an analysis of the historical development of Russian and foreign energy legislation, it is concluded that, at its core, energy law is private law. The features of the subject and method of energy law are analyzed, and the criteria for identifying the subject of energy law are outlined. In order to determine the essence of energy law, the author proposes a concept of areas of law, which include energy law. The paper examines the features of organizational and regulatory structures (institutions) in energy legislation, which are the most important structural elements of energy law. Examples of the mutual influence of norms and institutions of private and public law in the energy sector are considered, and the specifics of the functions and objectives of contractual regulation in the energy sector are indicated. The key practical problems of the energy sector are identified, the scientific study of which is a priority for legal science in this area.
Limits of Prosecutorial Intervention: Conceptual Foundations of the Study
Authors: Afanasieva Т. I.
Published: September 2024

The relevance of developing a theory about the limits of prosecutorial activity aimed at realizing the purpose of the Prosecutor’s Office of the Russian Federation is substantiated. The theory of prosecutorial activity is at the stage of formation, but the parallel development of its basic concepts, which, without a doubt, includes the fundamental category «limits of intervention (activity),» contributes to the creation of a coherent and consistent doctrine of prosecutorial activity. The development of any scientific theory, as is known, is preceded by the conceptualization of knowledge. The author made an attempt to determine the conceptual basis for the formation of a holistic doctrine about the limits of prosecutorial activity. The study of the limits of prosecutorial intervention requires tracking and consideration at the ideological, theoretical and factual levels, which predetermined the designation in the article as the conceptual basis for the study of its problem, the original terminology, the purpose of developing this theory, the expected results, theoretical and empirical foundations of the study, as well as a brief justification of individual approaches and methods for studying the limits of prosecutorial intervention.
Issues of Determining the Systematicity in the Qualification of Crimes
Authors: Dashieva A. D.
Published: September 2024

The article analyzes the issues of determining the systematicity in the qualification of criminal offenses. Based on the conducted research, the author concludes that there are no uniform criteria for determining the evaluation feature — systematicity, quantitative and temporal characteristics. The author shows that the systematicity is determined differently in different types of crimes, in particular in the article, in the note to the article or in the explanations of the Resolutions of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation. The examples given in the paper show striking differences in criteria. So, systematic can be suitable: at least once, more than twice, or three or more times. By time, this may be at least once a quarter, during the year, during the period of the prescribed measures, or there are no specific time limits. The use of analogy according to the norms of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation is prohibited, and there are not always norms defining the criteria for the qualification of evaluative concepts. The conducted research allows us to conclude that it is necessary to develop unified approaches to the interpretation of the norms of legislation on systematization and their consolidation in criminal legislation.
On the Essence and Content of Forensic Crime Prevention: Theoretical and Practical Aspects
Authors: Mitrofanova A. A.
Published: September 2024

The problem of determining the essence and content of the concept of «forensic crime prevention» and its relationship with other related concepts is analyzed. One of the means of forensic crime prevention is to identify, during criminal proceedings, circumstances that contributed to the commission of a crime, with subsequent submission to the relevant organization or official of a proposal to take measures to eliminate these circumstances or other violations of the law. The work notes the difficulties that arise in practice when implementing this form of preventive activity of the investigator. In addition, other areas within which forensic crime prevention can develop are presented.
Participation of the Prosecutor’s Office in the Consideration by Arbitration Courts of Cases Challenging acts of Prosecutorial Response: Problems of Law Enforcement
Authors: Miroshnichenko M. N.
Published: September 2024

The article analyzes the problems of law enforcement practice in cases related to challenging acts of prosecutorial response. The author provides information on the indicators of the application of acts of prosecutorial response, indicating the importance of these legal means of the prosecutor’s office, as well as the facts of their recognition by the courts as illegal. Based on the analysis of the results of the consideration of cases of this category by arbitration courts, the main reasons for recognizing acts of prosecutorial response as illegal are given. The article considers the question of whether or not it is necessary in each case to make an act of prosecutorial response to carry out an inspection, and to make an appropriate decision about it. The problem of determining the presence or absence of the fact of interference by the prosecutor’s office in the administrative and economic activities of a legal entity as a basis for recognizing the relevant act of prosecutorial response as illegal is raised. The author comes to the conclusion that it is necessary to amend the federal legislation regulating the conduct of prosecutorial inspections, and also points out the relevance of clarifying a number of issues in the relevant resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation.
Prosecutor’s Offices and Government Bodies of the Russian Federation as Subjects of Legal Relations in the field of Protection of Human and Civil Rights
Authors: Tanov N. R.
Published: September 2024

Russian government institutions carrying out human rights and law enforcement activities strictly adhere to the norms and standards that are reflected both in international law and in the Constitution of the Russian Federation. The Prosecutor’s Office of the Russian Federation, as a subject of legal relations, representing a key supervisory body of state power, plays a fundamental role in the implementation of activities aimed at protecting human and civil rights. However, in a developed democratic and rule-of-law state, the scope of human rights protection affects various branches of law and economic spheres. That is why the implementation of supervision and human rights activities by the prosecutor’s office of the Russian Federation without interaction with other government bodies of the Russian Federation, which also act as subjects of legal relations, seems to be a difficult process to implement. The very interaction between the prosecutor’s office and government bodies demonstrates not only the high level of development of human rights institutions in the country, but also points to the fact that the interaction process itself needs both legislative improvement and the consolidation of its individual provisions.
Place of Residence of a Citizen as a Condition for the Realization of Social Rights
Authors: Shtefan D. I.
Published: September 2024

The article analyzes the legal regulation of registration of citizens on the territory of the Russian Federation and the influence of the current order on the implementation of social rights. The position of the highest courts on the issue of determining the place of residence of a citizen is given. Among the significant factors impeding the free exercise of citizens’ rights, there is divergent judicial practice on issues of financing benefits between the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. It is noted that for executive authorities, registration measures are necessary to ensure stable financing of budget expenditure obligations. The author notes that the currently functioning citizen registration registers in Russia are sufficient to solve problems with linking the exercise of rights depending on the citizen’s place of residence. Ways to improve legislation and change approaches to registration of citizens “at the place of residence” are proposed.

Authors: López-García Ricardo , Lagunes Carrasco José Omar , Ochoa-Ahmed Fernando Alberto , Carranza-García Luis Enrique , Navarro-Orocio Ricardo , Ramírez-Nava Rubén
Published: September 2024

El objetivo de este estudio fue analizar la asociación de la maduración biológica (MB) con mediciones antropométricas y el rendimiento físico en tenistas juveniles de élite. Se evaluaron 16 tenistas mujeres (14.12 ± 1.20 años de edad) y 17 tenistas hombres (13.76 ± 1.20 años de edad) del ranking del Circuito Nacional Infanto-Juvenil de la Federación Mexicana de Tenis. Se conformaron dos grupos, categoría 14 y categoría 16. Medidas antropométricas y de rendimiento físico fueron evaluadas. Con la ecuación de Mirwald et al. (2002) se obtuvo la MB.  Los resultados mostraron diferencias de MB entre categorías de varones. También, en los valores de peso, talla, IMC, longitudes corporales, diámetro biestiloideo, diámetro biiliocrestal, grasa corporal, salto Abalakov y lanzamientos de balón medicinal (p ≤ 0.05). En mujeres, no se encontraron diferencias significativas entre las variables de rendimiento físico. La MB en la categoría 14-16 se correlacionó con SJ, CMJ, Abalakov y LBC, acromial-radiale, biiliocrestal y porcentaje de grasa (p ≤ 0.05) y en hombres la categoría 14 se asoció la prensión manual, lanzamiento de balón por encima de la cabeza, longitudes óseas y el diámetro biiliocrestal con la MB (p ≤ 0.05). La asociación entre la maduración biológica, las medidas antropométricas y el rendimiento físico puede variar considerablemente entre tenistas de diferentes categorías. No todos los tenistas en la misma etapa de maduración biológica tendrán las mismas características antropométricas o de rendimiento físico, ya que otros factores como la genética, el entrenamiento y los hábitos de vida también desempeñan un papel importante.

Published: September 2024

La cada vez mayor constatación de casos de violencia sexual en el deporte practicado por menores justifica la necesidad de contar con instrumentos válidos y fiables para identificar estos comportamientos violentos y conocer su incidencia. El objetivo de esta revisión sistemática fue analizar las características psicométricas de cuestionarios retrospectivos que evalúan las percepciones y experiencias de violencia sexual en el deporte practicado durante la etapa escolar (12-17 años). Se realizó una revisión de la literatura entre 1960 y 2023 en Pubmed, Dialnet, Eric, Scopus y Psycinfo, fueron seleccionados cinco estudios (cuestionarios) y, después de evaluar su calidad metodológica utilizando la lista de comprobación Qualitative Attributes and Measurement Properties of Physical Activity Questionnaires (QAPAQ), se analizaron sus características generales, estructurales y propiedades psicométricas. Los resultados mostraron que los escasos cuestionarios encontrados son de una calidad metodológica aceptable, aportando valores de consistencia interna (excepto un estudio) y validez de contenido. Los cuestionarios fueron desarrollados para evaluar comportamientos de violencia sexual en el deporte perpetrados por entrenadores/as u otros deportistas mediante escalas Likert y de forma autoadministrada. Creemos que sigue siendo necesario evaluar las propiedades de medición de los cuestionarios de acoso sexual en el deporte e intentar unificar los cuestionarios con el fin de contrastar los resultados sobre percepciones y experiencias.

Today, parents have assumed important roles in shaping their children's eating habits in social and daily life. Especially the tendency of parents who do sports to transfer their healthy lifestyles to their children has positive effects on children's eating habits. This study examines the attitudes of parents on this issue and the effects of these attitudes on children's eating habits. In line with the aim of the study, the attitudes of parents who do sports towards their children's eating habits were investigated. The rationale of the study is to focus on how parents' attitudes towards nutrition affect their children's eating habits and the contribution of these attitudes to children's general health and sports performance. The findings of the study show that parents' nutrition attitudes are critical for children to develop a healthy lifestyle. This study was conducted between 2023-2024 and 860 parents and their children participated in the study. The data obtained from the study were collected using a 5-point Likert-type scale form with validity and reliability and analysed with SPSS 22.0 software. Various statistical techniques such as descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, independent sample t-test, ANOVA, factor and regression analyses were used in the study. The findings obtained at the end of the research show that parents' nutritional attitudes have significant effects on children's eating habits. Parents' attitudes towards healthy eating and physical activity positively affect children's eating habits. Children of parents who do sports develop healthier eating habits, are more active and take part in physical activities. The study reveals that parents' nutritional attitudes contribute to children's general health and sports performance.
Feeling good means doing good: body appreciation as a predictor of physical activity, fitness, and motivation
Authors: Pasno Aries I.
Published: September 2024

The study aimed to investigate the influence of body appreciation on physical activity motivation, physical activity level, and physical fitness among 423 randomly selected state university students. The Body Appreciation Scale-2 was used to quantify body appreciation. For measuring physical activity level, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire was utilized. The Physical Activity and Leisure Motivation was also used to quantify physical activity motivation. Various field tests, such as a 3-minute Step test, a 1-minute Push-up test, a Plank test, a Wall sit test, and a Sit and Reach test, were used to assess physical fitness. The questionnaire, scale, and field tests were completed and performed by the participants. The data gathered were analyzed using multiple linear regression with SPSS Version 29. Body appreciation was found to be a predictor of physical activity and leisure motivation for males, females, and all participants. It also predicted the physical activity levels of males, females, and all participants. However, its influence on physical fitness was only found in male participants. Future studies should measure variables using alternative instruments, such as a varied scale for body appreciation, real-time physical activity tracking through wearables and fitness apps, and additional physical fitness components to better assess the influence of body appreciation on physical fitness.

Globally, mental and substance use disorders are a leading cause of disease burden. In low- and middle-income countries, where there is an extreme shortage of trained mental health specialists, validated, brief screening tools for mental and substance use disorders are required for non-specialists to efficiently identify patients in need of mental health care. Mozambique, one of the poorest countries in the world, has fewer than two mental health specialists for every 100,000 people. In the present study, we evaluated a comprehensive set of seven measures for depression, anxiety, somatization, alcohol use disorder, substance use disorder, psychosis and mania, and suicide risk among N=911 Mozambican adults in general healthcare settings. All instruments demonstrated acceptable internal consistency (α > 0.75). Compared to diagnoses made by the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview, all measures showed good criterion validity (AUC > 0.75), except the Psychosis Screening Questionnaire, which showed low sensitivity (0.58) for psychotic disorder. No substantial differences were observed in internal consistency when stratifying by gender, age, education level, primary language, facility-type, and patient status; criterion validity showed some variability when stratified by sub-population, particularly for education, primary language, and whether the participant was seeking care that day. Exploratory factor analyses indicated that the measures best differentiate categories of diagnoses (common mental disorder, severe mental disorders, substance use disorders, and suicide risk) rather than individual diagnoses, suggesting the utility of a transdiagnostic approach. Our findings support the use of these measures in Mozambique to identify common mental disorders, substance use disorders, and suicide risk, but indicate further research is needed to develop an adequate screen for severe mental disorders. Given the limited mental health specialists in this and other LMIC settings, these brief measures can support non-specialist provision of mental health services and promote closure of the treatment gap.

Background: Despite a declining trend in Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevalence across sub-Saharan Africa, specific vulnerable groups continue to be disproportionately impacted (29.9% for sex workers, 12.9% for gay men having sex with men (MSM) vs 5.9% for adults). In the face of this challenge, it is critical to tailor demand creation for prevention, in particular self-care, for maximum impact and cost-efficiency. This study seeks to provide a behavioral understanding towards HIV prevention that shape the efficacy of prevention strategies among priority populations (female sex workers, MSM and adolescent girls and young women) in southern and eastern Africa. Methods: This study involved a literature review of 110 articles, focusing on HIV prevention in priority populations, behavioral interventions, and policy priorities from governments and funders. Additionally, insights were gained from 11 in-depth interviews and a workshop with 10 experts at the AIDS Impact 2023 conference. Participants included behavioral researchers and program leaders from Global Fund, United States Agency for International Development (USAID), U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, FHI360, Population Services International and Genesis Analytics. A user-centric behavioral framework was devised to identify actionable drivers and barriers in HIV prevention during the consultation exercise. Results: The study highlights the importance of shared and effective self-care in enhancing HIV prevention, particularly in vulnerable groups. The behavioral framework integrates the decision-making contexts and the health ecosystem layers to inform research and demand strategy. Key findings include: (1) effective self-care is not the same as continuous use of Pre-exposure prophylaxis and therefore, programs and policies need to measure them differently; (2) users exercise choice through a combination of prevention products and focus on a few may be sub-optimal, and (3) perceived risk is transient and hence risk-based messaging lacks sustained relevance. Conclusion: Effective self-care strategies extend beyond overcoming access and availability issues. Examining the underlying factors causing the barriers is essential. The behavioral framework presented here suggests that: (a) Self-care is a shared responsibility between the user and healthcare system and (b) demand creation should be de-medicalised, away from products and towards meeting the needs and preferences of users.
Defining Mammalian Lifespan through Epigenetic Aging Timescales
Authors: Ratan Prashansa , Devaskar Sherin , Pellegrini Matteo
Published: September 2024

The lifespans of mammalian species vary across orders of magnitude, with the shortest on the order of a year and the longest more than one hundred years. These lifespans are influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Here we asked whether we can define a molecular process that can be used to define the intrinsic molecular lifespan of a species that is largely independent of environmental factors. To address this question, we have focused on ‘epigenetic clocks’ - highly accurate age-predicting biomarkers based on DNA methylation. Our previous research has demonstrated that the alterations in DNA methylation related to age are non-linear, changing rapidly early in life and slowing down with advancing age. We have proposed the use of saturating exponential functions to represent these changes, which tend to stabilize at terminal methylation levels towards the end of an organism's lifespan. Our current study expands upon this by examining the exponential aging timescales across various mammalian species. We show that the DNA methylation trajectories of a broad range of species, ranging from mice to humans, adhere to a saturating exponential function. Furthermore, we find the timescale of this exponential decay to be about one third of a species’ lifespan. This striking and novel observation implies that we can define an intrinsic molecular lifespan of a species that is largely unaffected by environmental factors. Although the exact mechanisms behind the variation in species-specific rates remain unclear, we hypothesize that they may be linked to the distinct metabolic rates found in each species.
Human Freedom from Algorithmic Bias: What is the role of Accountability in addressing Health Disparities?
Authors: Qureshi Sajda , Oladokun Blessing
Published: September 2024

While there are many causes of health disparities, the application of Artificial Intelligence tools in healthcare may have mixed results. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the role of human freedoms and accountability to achieving digital inclusion. It discovers the role of algorithmic bias in mediating the relationship between human freedom and mobile health. The following research questions are investigated: 1) How do human freedoms effect digital inclusion and mobile health? 2) Do human freedoms effect mobile health? And 3) Does AI accountability mediate the relationship between human freedoms and mobile health? The findings suggest that human freedoms are central to digital inclusion and mobile health. Accountability does affect the extent to which digital inclusion can be achieved through human freedoms. AI accountability significantly mediates the relationship between human freedoms and the mobile index. This offers an important contribution in uncovering the role of algorithmic bias in human freedom and mobile health, and of accountability between human freedom and digital inclusion.
Italian School One Piece Implants Stabilized with Electrowelded Titanium Needle for The Rehabilitation in Aesthetic Area of Single Post-Extraction Edentulies with Immediate Loading

The stabilization of an one piece implant with an electrowelded titanium needle is a technique introduced at the end of the seventies of the last century to increase the primary stability, already acquired by means of the wide thread and bicorticalism, of the one-piece implants of the Italian school such as the Tramonte screw, especially in immediate loading rehabilitations of single edentulous upper front teeth and thus make the success of immediate loading predictable. The stabilization of a one piece implant is achieved by inserting a titanium needle (Scialom type) divergent from the axis of the main implant, a needle which must reach and impact the deep cortical bone and be welded with the intraoral welding machine to the one piece basic screw, to form a single prosthetic abutment. In addition to enhancing primary stability and increasing resistance to static and dynamic stress, given that by forming a single body with the implant it extends the support surface over a larger surface, needle stabilization also carries out an anti-rotational action, opposing the "unscrewing" effect that can be caused by the pressure exerted by the tongue during swallowing. Needle stabilization also helps to avoid those micromovements which, when they exceed 150 microns, can prevent the osseointegration process, leading to the failure of the immediate loading implant. Needle stabilization has proven to be particularly effective in the immediate loading of post-extraction single implants in the upper frontal sectors, with reduced bone depth, or with poorly mineralized bone.

Healthcare in the U.S. is the most expensive in the world, presenting a complex environment that demands nurse leaders possess consummate business skills. This article chronicles the 30-year journey of incorporating business acumen into nursing education, detailing the resistance and gradual acceptance within the nursing profession. Despite significant progress, a notable gap remains in financial literacy and business proficiency among nurse leaders, often limiting their engagement in financial management roles. The discussion extends to the challenges and opportunities the evolving healthcare landscape presents, where business and financial competencies are increasingly essential for effective leadership. This article aims to underscore the critical need for nurse leaders to be equipped with advanced business skills to successfully navigate the complex healthcare environment. It also emphasizes the pivotal role of nursing academia in integrating business education into program curricula. The Doctor of Nursing Practice/Master of Business Administration dual degree is presented as an innovative educational pathway designed to bridge this gap by providing comprehensive business knowledge and skills. With this degree, the next generation of nurse executives will be well-prepared to become 'guardians at the gate' in the complex world of healthcare, driving meaningful change and improving healthcare outcomes.
