Abstract
Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of chromium propionate as zootechnical feed additive for all growing poultry species. The safety and efficacy of chromium propionate has been assessed previously in 2021 by the Panel and it was concluded that the additive is considered safe for chickens for fattening and chickens reared for laying/breeding at the proposed use level 0.2–0.4 mg Cr/kg complete feed, but the conclusion was not extrapolated to other growing species. During that assessment, the EU Reference Laboratory for feed additives (EURL) was not in a position to recommend the method for official control for the quantification of the organic chromium content in premixtures and feedingstuffs. The applicant subsequently proposed a new method of analyses, incorporating a tracer in the composition of a premixture, which has been evaluated by EURL and recommended as official method for the quantification of the organic chromium content in premixtures and feedingstuffs. The safety of the use of the microtracer has been assessed in 2024. The Panel considered that the use of the microtracer as proposed in the conditions of use would not introduce safety concerns for the target animals, the consumers and terrestrial environmental compartment, but no conclusion could be made for the groundwater. The microtracer should be considered a dermal and respiratory sensitiser. In the current assessment, the FEEDAP Panel concluded that the additive is safe for turkeys for fattening at the maximum proposed supplementation level of 0.4 mg Cr/kg feed, but a margin of safety cannot be established. This conclusion can be extended to turkeys reared for reproduction, but cannot be extrapolated to other growing poultry species. The use of the additive according to the proposed conditions of use causes no concern for consumer safety. The conclusions made previously for user safety remain the same: the additive does not present a risk by inhalation, the additive is irritant to the eyes, not irritant to the skin and is not a skin sensitiser. The use of the additive is considered safe for the environment. The previous conclusion on efficacy remains valid.

Abstract
All European Union (EU) Member States (MSs), along with Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and the United Kingdom (Northern Ireland), conduct surveillance for avian influenza (AI) in poultry and wild birds. EFSA, upon mandate of the European Commission, compiles and analyses this data in an annual report. This summary highlights findings from the 2023 surveillance activities. In 2023, 31 reporting countries (RCs) visited 21,183 poultry establishments (PEs). Of these, 18,557 underwent serological investigations, 2460 underwent virological investigations and 166 underwent both. Among the 18,723 PEs sampled for serological testing, 29 PEs (0.15%) were seropositive for influenza A(H5/H7) viruses, more in detail: 27 PEs tested positive for A(H5), 1 tested positive for A(H7) and 1 tested positive for both strains. These were found in eight RCs (Bulgaria, Poland, Germany, Spain, Sweden, Norway, Iceland and Finland). Of the 2626 PEs sampled for virological testing, 180 PEs (6.85%) were positive for influenza A(H5/H7) viruses. More precisely, 178 tested positive for A(H5), of which 161 positive for HPAI (H5N1) and 2 tested positive for A(H7). Positive PEs were reported by 12 RCs covering 14 different poultry categories. A total of 51,411 wild birds were sampled, with 6717 (13.07%) testing positive for HPAIVs by PCR from 25 RCs. Subtype A(H5N1) was the main influenza A virus identified (6531; 97%), similar to 2022. Twenty RCs reported 1940 wild birds testing positive for LPAI or AIV of unknown pathogenicity. For these, 1372 (67.5%) were nor A(H5) or A(H7), while 568 (29.3%) tested positive for A(H5). These findings reflect the ongoing efforts in early detection and monitoring of avian influenza to mitigate the risk of outbreaks in poultry populations throughout Europe.

Kulcs lett a nulla, avagy az új kedvezményes általános forgalmi adókulcs használata az unió tagállamaiban
Authors: Tóth Orsolya Éva
Published: January 2025

2022. április 5-én az Európai Unió hivatalosan is elfogadta a 2006/112/EK a közös hozzáadottértékadó-rendszerről szóló uniós irányelv módosításait, amely szélesebb körű jogokat biztosít a tagállamoknak a kedvezményes általános forgalmi adókulcsok alkalmazására. Ezen módosítások lehetővé teszik, hogy a tagállamok új, 5% alatti adókulcsot vezessenek be az irányelv III. mellékletében felsorolt termék- és szolgáltatáskategóriából legfeljebb 7 termék- és szolgáltatáskategória esetében. Hazánk 2024. január 1-jétől vezette be a 0%-os adókulcsot a 4902 vámtarifaszám alá sorolt, hetenként legalább négyszer megjelenő kiadványnak minősülő napilapokra. Jelen tanulmány azt elemzi, hogy az Unió tagállamai mely termék- és szolgáltatáskategóriák esetében döntöttek a kedvezményes, nulla százalékos adókulcs bevezetéséről. A kutatás során az Európai Bizottság által működtetett „Taxes in Europe Database v4” adatbázisából, valamint másodlagos forrásokból származó adatok felhasználásával indikátor mátrix és scatter plotok segítségével történt meg a kapott adatok elemzése. Az eredmények rámutatnak arra, hogy a tagállamok többsége nem, vagy csak alig alkalmazza a nulla százalékos adókulcsot az új szuperkedvezményes kategóriák keretében.
ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae, an Unnoticed Pandemic with Challenges in Clinical Practice, a mini-review.
Authors: Ramos Deving Arias , Moreno Henao Luis Eduardo , Bolaños Omar Fernando , Roa Martínez Álvaro José
Published: January 2025

Antimicrobial resistance in gram-negative bacilli is an ecological problem with a major impact on public health. Extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) are enzymes that inactivate broad-spectrum antibiotics, penicillins, third and fourth generation cephalosporins. There are many factors associated with the global spread of ESBLs, such as the use of over-the-counter antibiotics, the food industry, travel abroad, and the lack of implementation of control strategies in hospitals and at the community level. Fecal carriers of ESBLs are increasingly commonly encountered in routine hospital settings as many hospitals have implemented rectal screening for ESBLs, however, the utility of this clinical practice and the routine isolation of patients carrying these bacteria has controversial benefits. There are challenges in selecting suitable patients for empirical therapy with carbapenems for the treatment of presumed severe ESBLs infections. Inappropriate empirical therapy is associated with high mortality in bloodstream infections. Carbapenems are the standard of care for severe invasive ESBL-E infections outside the urinary tract, however, overuse of carbapenems may lead to the emergence of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales. This mini review is intended to contribute to understanding about ESBLs as a global ecological problem, causing a considerable impact on health care services and posing enormous challenges in everyday antimicrobial therapy.

Authors: Arturo Solís Herrera , María del Carmen Arias Esparza , Sergey Shuckov
Published: January 2025

Stroke is a clinically defined syndrome of acute focal neurological deficit attributed to vascular injury (infarction, hemorrhage) of the central nervous system. Stroke is the second leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Stroke is not a single disease but can be caused by a wide range of risk factors, disease processes and mechanisms. Approximately 15% of strokes worldwide are the result of intracerebral hemorrhage, which can be deep (basal ganglia, brainstem), cerebellar or lobar. A minority (about 20%) of intracerebral hemorrhages are caused by macrovascular lesions (vascular malformations, aneurysms, cavernomas), venous sinus thrombosis or rarer causes.

Published: January 2025

THE PURPOSE. Study of extraction processes of plant raw materials with a wide range of biologically active properties, supercritical carbon dioxide used as a solvent, as well as with the addition of ethanol, used as a co-solvent, to supercritical carbon dioxide in a ratio of 5% to the total consumption at a temperature of 313 K and pressure 30 MPa. METHODS. The study of extraction processes was carried out by the method of supercritical fluid extraction, which is effective and environmentally friendly compared to traditional methods for obtaining extracts. The experimental setup, equipped with two plunger pumps, allowed the implementation of a dynamic extraction method with both supercritical carbon dioxide and carbon dioxide with the addition of ethanol. RESULTS. The final extract yields were obtained for Valeriána officinális, Hypericum, Matricaria and Salvia at a temperature of 313 K and a pressure of 30 MPa using pure carbon dioxide and a carbon dioxide/ethanol mixture as a solvent. Based on the results of experimental data, the dependence of the mass yield of the extract on the extraction time was plotted. This determines the extraction rate of each sample. CONCLUSION. The experimental data obtained indicate that for each of the samples of plant raw materials, the use of supercritical carbon dioxide modified with ethanol in a ratio of 95 and 5%, respectively, leads to an increase in the yield of the extract. This, in turn, leads to a reduction in energy costs when implementing the extraction process using the proposed method on an industrial scale.

RELEVANCE. Managing the surplus and deficit of electric power generation, which contributes to the stabilization of the energy system and enhances its reliability, is a pressing issue. One of the solutions is the development and implementation of thermal energy storage systems within distributed energy systems. An important task in their development is creating an effective insulation system. THE PURPOSE. To develop an algorithm for the effective design of insulation systems for thermal energy storages with high-temperature working bodies. METHODS. The research is carried out using theoretical methods, including thermal engineering calculation of thermal insulation layers and thermal conductivity analysis. Mathematical modeling methods were used to determine the thickness of the thermal insulation system of a thermal energy storage device. RESULTS. The design of a thermal energy storage device has been developed. Based on the developed algorithm, it was determined that the thickness of the thermal insulation system should be 151 mm (the thickness of the first thermal insulation circuit is 135 mm, the thickness of the second thermal insulation layer made of mineral wool is 16 mm), ensuring minimal heat loss at a temperature of the heat accumulator equal to 2000 °C. It was revealed that the radiant heat flux prevails in the layers closest to graphite, accounting for about 70% of the total flux. CONCLUSION. The study confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed multi-layer insulation system for thermal energy storage. The developed algorithm allows for the calculation of insulation systems of thermal energy storage, taking into account various parameters and operating conditions.

Published: January 2025

RELEVANCE. When building roads, preparing foundations for high–rise buildings, information is needed about such an important parameter as the density of the soil skeleton – the ratio of the mass of soil particles to the volume of the sample of an undisturbed structure. The precise determination of this parameter is an important task, since this parameter has a nonlinear dependence on humidity. Consequently, in a narrow range of humidity changes, the density of the soil skeleton becomes maximum, which makes such a soil the most favorable for construction work. PURPOSE. To develop an autonomous device for measuring soil moisture in the field. METHODS. The dielkometric method was used to develop a device for measuring soil moisture. This is an indirect method for measuring the humidity of substances based on the dependence of the dielectric constant of these substances on their humidity. RESULTS. An autonomous device for determining soil moisture using the dielkometric method has been developed, designed for use in the field, which significantly speeds up the process of analyzing and processing measurement results, and, consequently, the process of processing information about the state of the soil. During the project, experiments were carried out to measure capacity depending on humidity and temperature at various frequencies from 100 Hz to 100 kHz in various types of soils. CONCLUSION. A device for determining soil moisture was developed and a method for determining the moisture and density of the soil skeleton by the dielkometric method was proposed, preliminary experiments were conducted. However, during the experiments, a temperature dependence was found for low frequencies, so additional temperature calibration is necessary.

Authors: Zaripov D. K. , Zakirov D. F. , Tarasov B. P. , Mironova E. A. , Nasibullin R. A.
Published: January 2025

ACTUALITY. External insulation is one of the most damaged elements of high-voltage equipment. Changes in climate, ecology have an increasing impact on it’s condition. The proportion of overhead transmission line (OTL) outages due to pollution varies by region and specific operating conditions, but on average it can range from 20% to 40% of all OTL failures. In regions with high levels of industrial pollution or near sea coasts, this figure can reach 50% or more. The main causes of outages are related to the accumulation of contaminants on insulators, which leads to overtopping in wet conditions. It is precipitation such as drizzle, fog or dew that has the greatest impact, combined with various solid conductive particles deposited on the insulator surface from the air, and forming a layer of surface contamination. Methods for diagnosing insulation are various, including thermal imaging. OBJECT. To study the effect of wetted contaminated surface of glass and polymer insulators on their temperature under laboratory conditions and to evaluate the possibility of diagnosing the contaminated condition. METHODS. Three dozen laboratory experiments with suspended glass and polymer insulators in a fog chamber with thermograms, control of leakage current and degree of contamination were carried out to achieve the goal. During the experiments, the degree and method of contamination and humidification conditions were changed. RESULTS. In the course of laboratory studies it was shown that thermal imaging cameras can diagnose even lightly contaminated insulation in the wetted state. The mean and rms values of temperature contrasts depend more on the level of contamination (greasiness) than on the degree of uniformity of contamination application. The methodology of construction of the insulation control system on overhead power lines and the algorithm of automated data processing are proposed.
Selecting analytical method of leakage inductance calculation for optimizing high-voltage test transformer design
Authors: Sakhno L. I. , Paramonov E. D. , Sakhno O. I. , Kochetkova E. Y. , Minevich T. G.
Published: January 2025

AN ACTUAL PROBLEM in transformer design is to optimize its design, since it allows you to create a competitive transformer. One of the objective functions in optimization algorithms for high-voltage test transformers is the ratio of the leakage inductive reactance of the transformer, reduced to the secondary side, to the load capacitance. Since the objective functions in the optimization procedure must be found many times, it is advisable to use approximate analytical calculation methods to calculate the leakage inductance. THE PURPOSE of the article is to analyze the error of the traditional analytical method for calculating the leakage inductance of power transformers with a rectangular axial cross-sections of the windings, and to develop a refined analytical method that takes into account the main design feature of high-voltage test transformers, which consists in the trapezoidal shape of the secondary winding cross-section. The refined method takes into account the change in the number of turns in the radial direction while maintaining the basic assumptions of the traditional method. METHODS. The error is studied by comparing the calculation results using these methods with the results of a numerical calculation of leakage inductance based on a 3D magnetostatic field, which are accepted as accurate. RESULTS. It is shown that the calculation error using the method proposed in the article is significantly reduced compared to the error of the method developed for power transformers with rectangular winding cross-sections. The ranges of changes in the relative geometric parameters of the base transformer have been determined, in which the error of this calculation method does not exceed 10%. The TGI 50/100 transformer, whose rated power is 5 kVA, was chosen as the base transformer. The developed analytical method is recommended for high-voltage test transformers optimization algorithms.

Episodic memory and the temporal dynamics of cognitive control
Authors: Wientjes Sven , Holroyd Clay B.
Published: January 2025

Humans adapt their engagement with tasks based on current goals, a process known as cognitive control. The “episodic control hypothesis” posits that episodic memory supports cognitive control by encoding task-related experiences—such as difficulties encountered and strategies used—and retrieving this information to guide future behavior. While computational models have traditionally emphasized separate mechanisms for control allocation (e.g., sequential vs. item-specific, proactive vs. reactive), we demonstrate how the “temporal context model” of episodic memory unifies these effects within a single theoretical framework. Furthermore, we tested and confirmed a novel prediction of the episodic control hypothesis, being that cues signaling future task difficulties (i.e., cognitive conflict) elicit immediate allocation of cognitive control, rather than delaying recruitment of control until the anticipated moment of conflict. Overall, the episodic control hypothesis provides a convincing and more coherent theoretical framework for control allocation effects, and can help understand observed individual differences in the regulation of cognitive control by further refining definitions of proactive and reactive control employed within the dual mechanisms of control framework.
The development of disparities in digital competencies across adolescence
Authors: Gnambs Timo , Hawrot Anna
Published: January 2025

The ability to use digital technologies effectively is essential for learning, work, and active participation in society. However, digital competencies are unevenly distributed among adolescents, with some excelling in digital tasks and others struggling to perform even basic operations. This digital divide often reflects demographic differences, particularly disadvantaging students with lower socioeconomic backgrounds and girls. So far, little is known about how these inequalities develop during adolescence. This study examined longitudinal changes in digital competencies among N = 4,872 German students from age 12 to 18. The results indicate that inequalities in digital competencies related to socioeconomic status diminished over time, while gender disparities favoring boys widened. The migrant gap in digital competencies remained stable. Comparative analyses for math and reading literacy highlighted partial parallels between digital inequalities and traditional educational inequalities. These findings demonstrate the persistence of pronounced disparities in digital skills, which may have long-term consequences for adolescents’ educational and professional opportunities in an increasingly digitalized world.
Differentiating Threat Perception, Worry, and Issue Salience – A Validity Assessment
Authors: Bomm Linda , Bergmann Paul Konstantin , Bakker Bert N.
Published: January 2025

Societal threat perception, worry, and issue salience are central to research in psychology and political science. Yet, their construct and predictive validity remain underexamined. This study addresses whether these constructs are distinct and whether they yield consistent conclusions about political ideology. Using data from a diverse Dutch sample (N = 1863), we first assessed construct validity by comparing self-reported threat perception, worry, and issue salience across twelve societal issues. Results show that threat perception and worry reflect the same underlying construct, distinct from salience, as citizens find issues more important than threatening or worrying. Second, we evaluated predictive validity by analyzing associations with right-wing ideology. Threat perception and worry correlated similarly with ideology, whereas issue salience often overestimated this relationship (Type M error) but rarely reversed its direction (Type S error). These findings clarify the unique roles of threat perception, worry, and issue salience, offering a validated framework for future research on the threat-politics nexus.
‘Sharing the Joy of Observing Nature’: A Study of Nature Walks in India
Authors: Bharati Anjali , Binoy VV
Published: January 2025

Nature Walks (NW) - a group of people exploring sites of ecological importance with an experienced guide and involved in informal discussions about various topics is a recognized method to improve environmental awareness and responsible behaviours of the non-experts. In the last decade, themed and non-themed NW got much popularity in India. The present study explored various dimensions of NW conducted in India following newspaper analysis, internet and social media studies, and the examination of academic publications. A participatory study of the 15 NW organised in the city of Bangalore was also conducted. Our results revealed a growing public and media interest in NW in India. However, very few websites and social media handles dedicated to this informal social activity were observed. Furthermore, the majority of academic publications containing the words nature walk used it in the context of tourism, and not even a single study focusing only on these events conducted in India was available in the literature. The organizers aimed to share knowledge about nature, raise conservation awareness, engage in scientific inquiry, and promote citizen science projects by conducting NW. Curiosity, science learning, conservation, enjoyment, opportunity for socialization and network formation, well-being and photography attracted participants to these events. The need for conducting integrated research on NW in India and formulating guidelines and policies to sustain the contributions from such events to the areas of health and wellbeing, environmental awareness and conservation and promotion of tourism without losing its essence - the informality- is discussed under the light of the results obtained.

More than “Multiculturalism”: Thoughts on Immigrant-Related Course Content across ALA-Accredited LIS Programs
Authors: Ndumu Ana , Siebold Connie
Published: January 2025

The authors reflect on the nature of North American LIS instruction on immigrant outreach and highlight a sample of LIS master's-degree courses that provide exclusive attention to immigrants’ information realities. Findings from a content analysis of available master's LIS course syllabi indicate that service to immigrants is subsumed predominantly within instruction on diversity and multiculturalism, which suggests that there is little dedicated focus on immigrants’ intersectional identities, political and immigration environments, or lived experiences. The authors recommend concerted and collective curricular design.

Histiocytoid Sweet Syndrome in a Patient with CRDM-Type Myelodysplastic Syndrome
Authors: Irimie Marius
Published: January 2025

Histiocytoid Sweet syndrome was first described in 2005 as a histological variant of acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis. Unlike classic Sweet syndrome, the dermal inflammatory cell infiltrate in histiocytoid Sweet syndrome consists of histiocytoid cells, which are thought to be immature myeloid cells. A 69-year-old male patient with a medical history of CRDM type myelodysplastic syndrome was consulted for a tender and slightly pruritic erythematous papular rash, some lesions showing central vesiculation, disseminated to the trunk and limbs, with an onset of about 1 month. His general condition was relatively good without fever. In the context of the pre-existing haematological condition, a leukemic transformation with concomitant leukaemia cutis was suspected and a skin biopsy was performed. The histopathological examination revealed an infiltrate in the superficial dermis consisting predominantly of mononuclear cells with cytomorphological characteristics of monocyte/histiocyte, with frequent interstitially dispersed neutrophils, and perivascular immature granulocytes and lymphocytes. Immunohistochemical staining was positive for myeloperoxidase and CD68 in numerous cells in the infiltrate, establishing the diagnosis of histiocytoid Sweet syndrome. The histiocytoid variant of Sweet syndrome should be recognized as a distinct entity by clinicians, so Sweet syndrome should not be excluded in the absence of classic clinical and histopathological manifestations.

Authors: Bolborici Ana-Maria
Published: January 2025

EU member states’ migration and asylum policies are influenced by a complex interplay of national interests, historical contexts, and societal attitudes, leading to divergence.

The significance of migration and asylum policies in the EU will be explored in the paper. The analysis will examine also the EU’s migration and asylum laws, including the Common European Asylum System, and underline the position of some Member States.
The Neutrality of the Romanian Head of State
Authors: Saramet Oana
Published: January 2025

The Constitution of Romania, republished, expressly enshrines, in art. 1 para (4), the principle of separation and balance of powers in the state. The possibility of respecting this principle is outlined by constitutional provisions relating to public authorities, their powers, as well as the relationships between them. In the 1991 constitutional configuration, maintained even after the 2003 revision, the President of Romania was placed in the sphere of executive power, the constitutional functions recognized to him being placed between the other authorities, especially between the Parliament of Romania and the Government, ensuring the balance between them being one of his missions. Analyzing, through specific methods of interpretation and research: logical, systematic, respectively comparative, in this article we aim to show that, by virtue of its constitutional role, as well as in order to exercise it responsibly, neutrality is one of the essential conditions that it must respect.
