CULTURAL AND VALUE DIMENSION OF FEDERALISM IN RUSSIA
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Achkasov Valery
Published: November 2024

The author of the article joins a long-standing debate about the relationship between the current sociocultural context and institutional changes, during which a clear answer to the question under discussion was never obtained. The article is devoted to the peculiarities of the perception and use of the main institutions of federalism, determined by the main characteristics of the political culture and political attitudes of the Russian elites. The author proves that when studying ethno-federalism in general, and Russian ethno-federalism in particular, one cannot limit oneself to an exclusively institutional and functional approach, since the cultural and value component plays an important role in its success or failure.

Thus, a brief excursion into the history of federalism in Russia showed that the central elites, both in Soviet times and the modern period, perceived federalism as a value, using its institutions purely technically, as useful tools for bribing ethnic elites and maintaining their loyalty. At the same time, the political elites, like the “indigenous population” of ethnic regions, considered and continue to consider their status as a “titular ethnic group”, their “original national territory” and their republican territorial autonomy as important political values. This “cultural dissonance” results in the ethnicization of regional political identity and the politicization of ethnic identity, and leads to the opposition of ethno-regional and national identities. As a result, the ethnic factor serves as an effective political resource used in the process of “bargaining” with the federal center by elite groups of the “ethnic region,” which leads to further fragmentation of Russian society and a weakening of the sense of civic solidarity.
Le langage phénoménologique sur le mystère chrétien
Authors: ADETOU Fidèle
Published: November 2024

Cet article explore la relation entre le langage humain, la philosophie et la théologie, en mettant l'accent sur la difficulté d'exprimer le divin. Il part du postulat que le langage, à la fois extérieur et intérieur, est propre à l'homme, et examine sa capacité à articuler la transcendance. D'une perspective phénoménologique, l'étude analyse comment la philosophie attribue des concepts aux phénomènes, tandis que la théologie rencontre des obstacles lorsqu'elle tente de nommer Dieu, car le divin semble dépasser les limites du langage. L'article suggère que, bien que le langage soit essentiel à la communication et à la pensée, sa capacité à exprimer la réalité divine reste limitée. Le silence apparaît alors comme une voie herméneutique plus appropriée pour approcher le sacré, car la nature de Dieu transcende les concepts humains, révélant ainsi les limites du langage face à l'ineffable.
Essere figli e figlie: il segreto della nascita
Authors: Canullo Carla , Vargas Sonia , Linares Bernardita
Published: November 2024

L'articolo esplora il concetto di essere figli e figlie da una prospettiva filosofica e antropologica, concentrandosi sul significato e sul segreto inerente alla nascita. Attraverso un'analisi approfondita, viene esaminato come l'atto di nascere non implichi solo un evento biologico, ma anche una dimensione esistenziale e spirituale. Si discute l'importanza del riconoscimento dell'altro come figlio o figlia e le implicazioni etiche e sociali di questa relazione fondamentale. Inoltre, viene analizzato come diverse tradizioni culturali e religiose affrontino il mistero della nascita e della filiazione.
La reducción fenomenológica como el método para superar la metafísica en Jean-Luc Marion
Authors: Murga Ezequiel
Published: November 2024

La superación de la metafísica es el objetivo de las primeras obras de Marion. Este es emprendido a partir de diferentes vías: la teológica, la histórica y la fenomenológica. El presente artículo busca mostrar que la reducción fenomenológica es el método que Marion utiliza para superar la metafísica en la totalidad de los caminos y no solamente en los textos fenomenológicos. Con este fin, se analiza el método con el que Marion propone superar el horizonte del ser en las obras teológicas (L’idole et la distance y Dieu sans l’Être) e históricas (Sur le prisme métaphysique de Descartes) y se las compara con los desarrollos de la reducción en Réduction et donation para demostrar que, aún no nombrada como tal, la reducción es el método que Marion utiliza para superar la metafísica. A su vez, estos análisis permiten establecer la génesis de la reducción en el pensamiento marioniano.
La saturación icónica: la Fenomenología de la religión como crítica a la metafísica
Authors: Santasilia Stefano
Published: November 2024

La fenomenología de la religión pone, en su propia  constitución, en jaque la problemática del estatuto del fenómeno con respecto a la posibilidad de la manifestación de algo que, estructuralmente, tiene que desbordar las posibilidades de la conciencia. Este problema, ya detectado por algunos fenomenólogos en los tiempos inmediatamente  sucesivos a la fundación de la fenomenología como corriente filosófica, queda declinado de manera específica por Jean Luc Marion, a través de su reconfiguración del estatuto del fenómeno a partir de la idea de saturación. En particular, la saturación icónica representaría la piedra de toque de una posible fenomenología de la religión, la cual se constituiría, específicamente, también como crítica y dépassement de todo planteamiento metafísico.
Santo Tomás, Leibniz y el dilema creación – eternidad del mundo
Authors: Silva Camilo
Published: November 2024

Como imperturbables representantes de la teología cristiana, Santo Tomás y Leibniz adhieren prima facie a la tesis según la cual el mundo es una creación divina a partir de la nada (creatio ex nihilo), elevando esta verdad a la categoría de misterio o milagro de la religión. Pese a que el mismo Leibniz invoque la autoridad de Santo Tomás para circunscribir la creación del mundo en el contexto de la Revelación, el estatus epistemológico de las pruebas o argumentos sobre cuya base ambos justifican la tesis de la creatio ex nihilo es diferente: mientras que el aquinate reconoce que, habiendo sido creado de la nada, el mundo podría haber sido eterno -con lo cual Santo Tomás apunta a preservar intacta la omnipotencia de Dios-, el polímata alemán piensa de manera diferente, a saber, que no es racionalmente demostrable que el mundo existente o actual no sea, en efecto, eterno. De hecho, en ciertos pasajes, Leibniz sugiere que el mundo, en vez de ser el resultado de una creación, puede ser concebido como una eterna emanación divina. Sobre la base de diversas piezas textuales de ambos autores, nuestro propósito consiste en esbozar un estudio comparativo que examine inicialmente la manera en que Leibniz, apoyándose en la autoridad de Santo Tomás, concibe la creación divina del mundo al interior de su metafísica teológica (sección 1) con el objeto de analizar retrospectivamente, en una segunda etapa, la doctrina creacionista de Santo Tomás (sección 2), para así determinar si, finalmente, ambos sostienen o no una doctrina filosófica coincidente acerca de la creación en el plano metafísico-teológico (sección 3).

Manejo das plantas daninhas no milho através da densidade de plantio e do consórcio com girassol
Authors:   , Silva Ítalo Nunes
Published: November 2024

O girassol vem sendo estudado no controle de plantas daninhas através de alguns métodos, como o da consorciação. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar o rendimento da cultivar de milho AG 1051 semeada em quatro densidades populacionais (30, 50, 70 e 90 mil plantas por hectare), com o controle de plantas daninhas via consorciação com girassol. O experimento foi realizado na Fazenda Experimental Rafael Fernandes, da Universidade Federal Rural do Semi-Árido - UFERSA, no período de maio à setembro de 2015. Foi utilizado o delineamento experimental de blocos casualizados, com parcelas subdivididas, e cinco repetições. As densidades populacionais foram aplicadas nas parcelas e os controles de plantas daninhas aplicados nas subparcelas. Os métodos de controle de plantas daninhas foram: sem capinas, duas capinas (aos 20 e 40 dias após o plantio) e consorciado com girassol. Na consorciação, o girassol foi semeado por ocasião da semeadura do milho, entre as fileiras da gramínea, na densidade de 25 sementes viáveis m-2. Foram obtidos os rendimentos de minimilho, de milho verde e de milho seco, e realizadas as respectivas análises econômicas. Os controles com duas capinas e o consorciado com girassol proporcionaram os maiores valores de massa fresca de minimilho (densidade de 90.000 plantas por hectare), de massa fresca de espigas verdes despalhadas comerciais (densidades de 42.114 e 67.753 plantas por hectare, respectivamente) e de rendimento de grãos (densidades de 68.769 e 71.719 plantas por hectare, respectivamente). Houve redução de massa fresca de plantas daninhas e de rendimento de grãos de girassol com o aumentou da densidade de plantio do milho. Na produção de minimilho, a maior renda líquida e índice de lucratividade foram obtidas nas densidades de 90.000 plantas por hectare nos métodos com e sem capinas, e 70.000 plantas por hectare no método consorciado com girassol. Na produção de milho verde, o tratamento sem capina proporcionou a maior renda líquida (mas com índice de lucratividade negativo) na densidade de 30.000 plantas por hectare. As maiores produtividades de milho verde foram obtidas com duas capinas e na consorciação com girassol nas densidades de 50 mil e 70 mil plantas, por hectare, respectivamente. Renda líquida, taxa de retorno e índice de lucratividade indicaram não viabilidade da produção de grãos (milho seco)
AUXÍLIO EMERGENCIAL NO BRASIL COMO POLÍTICA INSTITUCIONAL
Authors: Campos Tatiana de Almeida , Hudler Daniel Jacomelli , Benacchio Marcelo
Published: November 2024

A presente pesquisa tem por objetivo analisar os requisitos trazidos pela Lei n.º 13.982, de 02 de abril de 2020, para a obtenção do auxílio emergencial no Brasil, por pessoas assoladas pelas consequências econômicas desastrosas advindas do isolamento social, forçosamente em decorrência da pandemia do Covid-19, como política institucional promovida pelo Poder Executivo federal. Verificar-se-á quais critérios foram utilizados pelo governo federal brasileiro para o cadastro e consequentemente para a concessão do auxílio emergencial, buscando cotejo analítico, com a crítica de Amartya Sen ao teste de meios em seu livro “Desenvolvimento como liberdade”. Além disso, demonstrará a importância da função intervencionista e protetiva do Estado como forma de realizar a dignidade humana e o direito humano ao desenvolvimento, sobretudo em momentos de crise sanitária e econômica. Conclui-se que houve distorção de informação, ao passo que se infere o papel essencial do Estado na manutenção da dignidade humana em situação emergência como a do cenário pandêmico. Para o incremento do trabalho, foi utilizada a técnica de pesquisa documental e bibliográfica para investigar os principais conceitos do teste de meios e requisitos legais do auxílio emergencial a fim de alcançar o objetivo delimitado.
TRANSIÇÃO POLÍTICA, CONTROLE PARLAMENTAR E SUPREMA CORTE NA HISTÓRIA CONSTITUCIONAL BRASILEIRA
Authors: Merlin Clève Clèmerson , Urtado Daniela
Published: November 2024

A pesquisa investiga o papel de instituições no contexto de mudança do regime autoritário na história constitucional brasileira. As Propostas de Emenda à Constituição que tinham por objeto a prorrogação dos mandatos de prefeitos, vice-prefeitos e vereadores, durante a ditadura militar, situam-se no cenário de transição política e envolveram embates entre governo e oposição. O mandado de segurança nº 20.257, impetrado pelos senadores Itamar Franco e Mendes Canale em 1980 colocou o Supremo Tribunal Federal em posição de interferir no debate político. A atuação do STF e sua interação com o Congresso Nacional revelam como as instituições se comportaram durante a transição política, autorizando, igualmente, conhecer o modo como o STF desenhava sua competência nos anos 1980 diante do contexto político transicional.
DIREITO DAS RELAÇÕES RACIAIS
Authors: José Moreira Adilson
Published: November 2024

Este artigo aborda uma questão teórica extremamente relevante, mas que não tem recebido a devida atenção dos especialistas: a possibilidade de análise da história do constitucionalismo brasileiro a partir da dinâmica das relações raciais. Leituras desconectadas dos contextos sociais a partir dos quais nossos textos constitucionais foram promulgados reproduzem narrativas que encobrem os mecanismos responsáveis pela institucionalização de regimes de governança racial, forças que operam ao lado de preceitos liberais. Este trabalho delineia os contornos desse problema e propõe um caminho possível para sua solução: afirmamos que uma leitura de nossa trajetória constitucional a partir das relações raciais abre espaço para a sistematização de uma disciplina que oferece parâmetros substantivos que podem levar a uma maior efetividade de normas constitucionais, qual seja, o Direito das Relações Raciais. Por meio da observação de como princípios constitucionais operaram tanto para manter formas de dominação, quanto para legitimar demandas de direitos feitos pela população negra, apontamos direções para que essa disciplina seja reconhecida como uma referência para a reflexão sobre nossa tradição constitucional. Assim, acreditamos que essa área de estudo oferece horizontes para a construção de princípios interpretativos e práticas constitucionais que possam conduzir a maiores níveis de inclusão racial.
CONSTITUCIONALISMO DOS ‘TUPINAMBÁS DE CASACA’
Authors: Rubim Borges Fortes Pedro
Published: November 2024

O presente ensaio explora três episódios seminais do constitucionalismo na Era Vargas, a saber, a crítica severa feita pelo Presidente da Comissão Constitucional ao próprio projeto de constituição em 1934; a proibição de partidos políticos que exterminou a democracia representativa logo após a outorga da Constituição de 1937 e o advento do Estado Novo; e o colapso da ditadura de Getúlio Vargas em 1945. Esses três episódios são retratos representativos do constitucionalismo da Era Vargas e possibilitam uma reflexão crítica a partir de uma análise histórica do período e de seus pontos positivos – direitos sociais, justiça do trabalho, código eleitoral, voto secreto, sufrágio feminino e justiça eleitoral – e seus pontos negativos – violação de direitos fundamentais, censura à liberdade de imprensa e à liberdade de expressão, tribunal de segurança nacional, autoritarismo e concentração de poder político na chefia do poder executivo federal. Em termos realistas, devemos refletir sobre a qualidade da revolução de 1930 e o seu legado. o constitucionalismo da Era Vargas foi um período de contradições e paradoxos: constituições com autoritarismo, revoluções com conservadorismo, cidadania com controle estatal e o Supremo Tribunal Federal com uma experiência prática de negação de direitos fundamentais.
DESCONSTRUÇÃO JUDICIAL DE DIREITOS SOCIAIS
Authors: Reis Gonçalves Pereira Jane , Mota Pimenta Alves Clara
Published: November 2024

O artigo examina as mudanças na fundamentação das decisões recentes do Supremo Tribunal Federal (STF) em relação aos direitos sociais, com ênfase nas relações de trabalho, especialmente no que se refere à terceirização. A partir de 1988, a Corte validou reformas constitucionais liberalizantes e promotoras da austeridade fiscal, mas utilizando abordagens predominantemente jurídicas ou processuais, sem manifestar posições substancialmente alinhadas com leituras neoliberais da constituição econômica. No campo dos direitos sociais, o Tribunal recorreu episodicamente a fundamentações consequencialistas e manifestou preocupações orçamentárias, mas manteve uma perspectiva liberal moderada, coerente com o caráter dialético da Constituição. Entretanto, nos últimos anos, em decisões que enfraqueceram os direitos trabalhistas, surgiram nos votos argumentos políticos de orientação conservadora que conferem clara primazia da proteção ao livre mercado nas relações trabalhistas. Essa mudança de postura é evidenciada pela análise da decisão na ADPF 324/DF, que permitiu a terceirização irrestrita e revelou uma alteração na abordagem sobre a relação entre direito e economia, encampando uma lógica de mercantilização das relações de trabalho. O artigo sugere que essa virada jurisprudencial pode ter repercussões na interpretação de outros direitos socioeconômicos e, por consequência, na própria concepção de constitucionalismo social que a Constituição de 1988 procurou consolidar.
CADEIA DE PRODUÇÃO DA CONSTITUIÇÃO
Authors: Falcão Joaquim
Published: November 2024

A Constituição vive no mercado civilizacional da resolução pacífica dos conflitos. Pretende, no Estado Democrático de Direito, deter o monopólio deste mercado. Esta pretensão se baseia num conceito de Constituição disciplinarmente limitado. Na medida em que este conceito tem sua utilidade conjuntural de moldar o apenas jurídico, o exercício profissional, suas instituições e o senso comum. Limita-se a pragmática da própria democracia. A pergunta básica que se coloca então é: como se mede a pretensão de monopólio? Qual a métrica verificável a partir da qual, mesmo positivada, é apenas um desejo, um sonho, um dever ser, que pode ou não ser, acontecer?

Published: November 2024

This study focuses on camping tourism as a growing outdoor recreational activity, gaining attention locally and through extensive media coverage, particularly on social media platforms. Despite its popularity, camping tourism has not received widespread attention compared to other tourism sectors. The study aims to explore attraction factors and satisfaction levels regarding facilities and services at Murog Purog Camp Site Tambatuon Village (MPCST) in Kota Belud. The three main objectives of the study are to identify attractions motivating campers at MPCST, examine camper satisfaction with facilities and services, and propose recommendations for improvements. The research design involves an online exploratory approach with a quantitative method as the primary research tool. A total of 70 respondents who have visited MPCST in Kota Belud participated in the study, providing their responses through an online questionnaire. Attraction factors identified include the location, scenic surroundings, clear and cool river water, unique river flow structure, and offered activities. Respondents expressed very high satisfaction levels with these attraction factors. Additionally, overall satisfaction with facilities and services, such as water and electricity facilities, online reservation services, and staff services, was generally high. Several recommendations were proposed to enhance facilities and services, including building a dedicated place of worship, expanding parking areas, constructing a convenience store, increasing toilet and tent facilities, adding more electricity facilities, and installing lights around the camping area.
A QUALITATIVE STUDY ON THE FACTORS INFLUENCING SOCIAL COHESION IN MUSCAT, OMAN
Authors: Said AlGhassani Abdullah Rashid , Tilaki Mohammad Javad Maghsoodi , Samat Narimah , Al Hanai Ahlam
Published: November 2024

Social cohesion, which refers to connectedness and solidarity among groups in society, is crucial to achieving an inclusive and sustainable development. However, social cohesion is influenced by various factors that can be either physical or non-physical. Given the limited studies on promoting social cohesion in Oman, this research adopts a qualitative approach to identify those urban physical factors that influence social cohesion in the governorate of Muscat. Data were collected via semi-structured interviews with 12 experts in relevant fields in Oman. By reviewing government initiatives aimed at enhancing social cohesion, this study highlights the importance of health and education infrastructure, community and open spaces, affordable housing, and walkable neighborhoods in promoting social interaction and cohesion.

China's heritage protection system encompasses material, intangible, and traditional village heritage. A combination of tangible and intangible cultural resources produces traditional villages. How to revitalize these villages has become a significant issue, as they represent the inheritance of agricultural civilization. In the northeastern part of Fuzhou City, Jiangxi Province, the proportion of traditional villages is highest in Jinxi County. Using a combination of field surveys and in-depth interviews, this article clarifies the process of conserving and revitalizing traditional villages in Jinxi County. It shows that the layout, architectural features, and integrating of multiple cultural elements embodied in the villages construct Jinxi's sense of place. These villages are also components of the ecotourism industry and are thus essential to revitalizing rural economies. From initiatives such as the "Rescuing Old Houses Action" to the implementation of "Ancient Village Financial Loans," various government and social capital investments provide financial support to protect traditional villages. Furthermore, a diverse governance model has been established, involving active participation from government entities, village committees, villagers, development companies, and social organizations. The conservation and revitalization of traditional villages in Jinxi County is a noteworthy example, demonstrating the synergies among government initiatives, community involvement, and financial investments to preserve cultural heritage.

Published: November 2024

Indonesian urbanisation has led to increased pollution, waste, and a reduction in green spaces, resulting in environmental and public health problems. Implementing green tourism, which focuses on sustainability, conservation, and community engagement, as an integral part of future sustainable urban tourism planning can help address these issues. Given the strength of the concept, it is the aim of this research to explore the challenges and opportunities for innovative green tourism practices in major cities in Indonesia, offering practical solutions to promote sustainable urban tourism. The research methodology involved conducting semi-structured interviews with 8 informants and holding focus group discussions with 15 informants, drawn from policymakers, local communities, and tourism operators, respectively. Using thematic analysis revealed patterns and key topics that encapsulate major issues, including poor infrastructure, inconsistent policy enforcement, little public knowledge, and short-term economic pressures. Technological innovation, policy reform, and community engagement can overcome these obstacles. International case studies like Singapore and Copenhagen show how multi-stakeholder approaches and technology may improve urban sustainability. Addressing infrastructure and regulatory deficiencies, engaging communities, using technology, and encouraging public-private partnerships are needed to implement green tourism in Indonesia. Indonesia can balance environmental protection with economic and social well-being by enacting comprehensive legislation and boosting awareness, creating a sustainable and resilient tourism economy. This research gives policymakers and stakeholders concrete information to promote green tourism and sustainable urban development in Indonesia.

Published: November 2024

This study explores the potential of biophilic design to enhance student learning within university libraries, an often-neglected aspect of urban design. While offices and hospitals have been extensively studied for their impact on well-being and performance, post-secondary education settings have received limited attention. A mixed-methods approach was conducted in this study, including interviews, VR simulation experiments, and a questionnaire survey. The results revealed a significant reduction in participants' blood pressure and heart rate following the implementation of the biophilic design. There were also unanimous reports of improved learning experiences; statistical analysis confirmed these positive effects, highlighting the calming influence of biophilic indoor environments on students. The study emphasised the benefits of creating conducive learning spaces and fostering pro-environmental behaviours. This research underscores the importance of integrating sustainable and biophilic design principles into urban educational environments, ultimately enhancing student well-being and academic performance in a student-centric urban design theme.

Published: November 2024

For city administrations, urban waste management is a crucial issue since it has an impact on public health and environmental sustainability. Reducing the amount of waste that is dumped in landfills and protecting the environment requires efficient recycling programs. This study aims to evaluate the collection of recyclable items from two distinct types of recycling centres, namely, Material Recovery Collection Facilities (MRCFs) and Community Recycling Centres (CRCs). Meanwhile, it also aims to evaluate the quantity of recyclable materials that are collected from two distinct types of recycling centres. This study utilised raw secondary data provided by KDEB Waste Management Sdn. Bhd. A statistical analysis was subsequently conducted to provide insights into the composition of recyclable items at each recycling facility. From the analysis, it is shown that the MRCFs have gathered 97.29% of recyclable items, leaving the CRCs with the remaining 2.71% in total. This highlights the value of a specialised and well-coordinated strategy for managing numerous types of recyclable waste, which enhances the overall sustainability and effectiveness of the recycling program. Therefore, this study recommends that data collection activities at each recycling centre continue with some improvements, as this could aid in future analysis of recycling patterns and trends.
High-Frequency Cognitive Control Training for Depression: Case Report
Authors: Vander Zwalmen Yannick , Hoorelbeke Kristof , Demeester David , Koster Ernst H W
Published: November 2024

Background

Cognitive control training (CCT) has gained attention in recent years as a preventative intervention in the context of major depressive disorder. To date, uncertainty exists around the working mechanisms of CCT and how its effects unfold overtime.

Objective

This study aimed to examine cognitive and affective transfer effects following an unusually high number of training sessions.

Methods

This case report presents data of a participant completing a large amount of training sessions (n=55) over the course of 1 year in 2 training phases: 10 initial sessions, followed by 45 additional sessions. Reliable change indices were calculated for several self-report questionnaires, measuring cognitive and affective functioning.

Results

Cognitive task performance suggests improved cognitive functioning after training (accuracy scores increased from 43/181, 24% at baseline to 110/181, 61% shortly after training), which was maintained at follow-up (accuracy scores around 50%). Reliable change indices suggest a decrease in depressive symptoms (Beck Depression Inventory-II score decreased from 23 at baseline to 3 following initial training). Similarly, burnout symptoms following CCT showed a similar decrease. Maladaptive emotion regulation strategies displayed high variability, decreasing after periods of training but increasing when no training was performed. However, no changes in repetitive negative thinking were observed. Thematic analysis from an in-depth interview focusing on CCT adherence and user experience pointed to the importance of independency and accessibility of CCT in perceived agency, as well as the need for clear feedback mechanisms following training.

Conclusions

Training task performance indicates further increases in performance beyond typical amounts of training sessions (10-20 sessions), hinting that more sessions could be beneficial for continued improvement in cognitive functioning. In line with previous research, CCT decreased depressive symptomatology. However, its effects on emotion regulation remain unclear. Further mechanistic studies into the temporal unfolding of CCT effects are necessary to investigate potential working mechanisms.

Machine Learning-Based Predictive Modeling of ICU Mortality Risk in Septic Shock and Heart Failure Patients: Insights from MIMIC-IV and eICU-CRD (Preprint)
Authors: Liu Qianfei , Zhou Long , Hou Ling , Chen Yilin , He Yuan , Li Guangcai
Published: November 2024

BACKGROUND

Patients with septic shock complicated by heart failure exhibit a significantly high mortality rate in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Timely intervention and early identification of high-risk patients are essential.

OBJECTIVE

In recent years, machine learning has garnered increasing attention for its applications in medical prediction; however, its use in the context of patients with septic shock and heart failure remains relatively underexplored.

METHODS

This study employed the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV)and eICU Collaborative Research Database (eICU-CRD) to identify patients with concurrent diagnoses of septic shock and heart failure. The MIMIC-IV database was used for model training, while the eICU-CRD database served for model validation.Using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression, we identified 18 variables significantly associated with prognosis and developed predictive models using eight machine learning algorithms: decision trees, random forests, extreme gradient boosting, light gradient boosting machine, support vector machines, multilayer perceptrons, elastic net, and logistic regression.The optimal model was determined through performance comparison of all models, followed by validation.

RESULTS

The study included 1,263 patients, comprising 860 from the MIMIC-IV database and 403 from the eICU-CRD database.The ICU mortality rates were 25.5% in the MIMIC-IV database and 19.6% in the eICU-CRD database.The random forest model demonstrated superior performance over other models in all evaluation metrics, achieving an area under curve (AUC) of 0.9349, accuracy of 87.8%, sensitivity of 0.829, F1 score of 0.763, Positive Predictive Value (PPV) of 0.707, and Negative Predictive Value (NPV) of 0.944 in the training set.In the test set, the random forest (RF) model maintained a leading position with an AUC of 0.7289 and an accuracy of 69.5%.Analysis of model interpretability identified acute physiology score III(APSIII), length of ICU stay, lactate levels, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, and prothrombin time as significant predictors of ICU mortality risk.

CONCLUSIONS

The random forest model demonstrated excellent performance in predicting ICU mortality risk among patients with septic shock and heart failure, exhibiting high accuracy and reliability.This model is a reliable predictive tool that assists clinicians in identifying high-risk patients early, facilitating timely intervention.
