Authors: Dung Nguyen Viet
Published: March 2024

Objective: To evaluate the value of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) in predicting treatment response in rectal cancer patients after neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy (nRCT). Subject and method: A study was conducted on 29 rectal cancer patients who underwent nRCT. Patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and tumor volume and ADC values (b-values: 0-1000s/mm²) were measured before and after nRCT. ADC values were measured in two ways: 1. For the entire tumor (ADC1) and 2. On the slice with the largest tumor area (ADC2). Changes in tumor volume (ΔV) and ADC values (ΔADC) before and after treatment were compared with the surgical pathology results, categorized into complete response (pCR)/incomplete response and downstaging T/not downstaging T groups. Result: ΔADC values were higher in the downstaging T group compared to the non-downstaging T group, with ΔADC1 values of 45.4% and 19.1%, respectively (p = 0.005), and ΔADC2 values of 51.7% and 20.2%, respectively (p = 0.01). At the ΔADC1 threshold of 42.2%, sensitivity was 55.6%, and specificity was 100%, while for ΔADC2 at 18.1%, sensitivity and specificity were 88.9% and 72.7%, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in ΔADC values between the complete response and incomplete response groups (p>0.05). Changes in tumor volume did not provide prognostic value for treatment response to NRCT. Conclusion: The ΔADC value is a potential prognostic factor in predicting treatment response in rectal cancer patients after nRCT, with more accurate diagnostic information compared to tumor volume.

Published: March 2024

Rubbers and elastomers have a rich history that spans many eras of human civilization dating back to 1600 AD. Upon their introduction into Europe, they became common materials in shoes and fabrics. With the invention of vulcanization by Charles Goodyear in 1839, rubbers became widely used in many new applications, ranging from tires to industrial machine parts. Today, rubbers and elastomers are essential in the development of innovative, emerging technologies. This review exemplifies how rubbers and elastomers have been used to advance the emerging fields of soft robotics through soft grippers and dielectric elastomer actuators, stretchable and wearable devices through conductive elastomers and smart elastomers used in thermal camouflage and sensors, biomedical applications through tissue scaffolding and stretch-triggered drug delivery, and energy harvesting through piezoelectric elastomers and wave harvesting triboelectric nanogenerators. This review also briefly summarizes other developments in these fields as well as glimpses into other emerging fields that are advancing through the incorporation of rubbers and elastomers.

Published: March 2024

Background: Lack of intake of macronutrients such as energy, protein and micronutrients such as iron, vitamins in the daily diet of pregnant women is a problem that has an impact on iron deficiency and chronic energy deficiency. To increase the bioavailability and absorption of iron sulfate supplements and improve the nutritional status of pregnant women, researchers provide interventions by consuming infused okra water. Okra contains macronutrients and micronutrients that can provide nutrition during pregnancy and increase iron absorption. This study aims to analyse the nutritional status of pregnant women by measuring BMI and its relation to their anaemia status. Methods: This research is a experimental study with a one group pretest-posttest design. The population in this study was all pregnant women with gestational ages of 16–32 weeks and Hb levels less than 11 gr/dl. Purposive sampling was used to collect 50 samples from 50 people. The intervention provided was 100 grams of fresh okra fruit, which had been made into infused okra water, which was then drunk by the respondents after consuming ferrous sulphate tablets 60 mg per day. To analyse the relationship between BMI and anaemia status, the researchers used the chi-square test. Results: There was no relationship between increases in BMI and Hb levels in pregnant women in this study. Conclusions: An increase in body mass index (BMI) in pregnant women who were given infused okra water and ferrous sulphate tablets did not have a positive effect on haemoglobin levels. Based on BMI, it appears that pregnant women are not malnourished.

Published: March 2024

The phytochemical constituents present in herbal products need to be determined in their prescribed strength in order to ensure their efficacy and product quality in formulations. The marker-based standardization of herbal products is a well-accepted concept. In this study Mangiferin is used as marker to estimate the amount of Mangiferin present in the formulation Salacia Lin. Veggie capsules containing 400mg of Salacia reticulata extract to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus. The method was validated as per the international conference on harmonization (ICH) guidelines that is applicable in industry as well as in academia. The method was developed using reverse phase, Analytical column used for the separation of analytes, Phenomenex HPLC C18 (250 X 4.6 mm, 5 μm). The run time was of 7 min. The mobile phase used was acetonitrile and orthophosphoric acid (pH adjusted to 3.5) in the ratio 85:15 at a flow rate of 0.5ml/min, column temperature was maintained at 28°C and a detection wavelength of 257 nm using a photodiode array detector. The optimized method that was developed resulted in the elution of Mangiferin at 4.83min and % recovery was between 97.09 to 101.57. Molecular docking investigation was done using Schrodinger software. The binding affinity of phytoconstituents present in Salacia reticulata to intestinal enzymes alpha amylase was investigated to study their possible inhibitory mechanism. The physicochemical and drug-likeness properties of the phytoconstituents were evaluated. The phytoconstituent salacinol showed highest docking score (- 9.592) with alpha amylase (2QV4 obtained from protein data bank) and Mangiferin showed a score of -8.235 in comparison with standard acarbose ( -10.274). Studies showed phytoconstituents Mangiferin, Salacinol and Kotalanol can be potential inhibitors of 2QV4, and potent drug candidates for T2DM. However, further studies on these phytoconstituents should be carried out by wet lab experiments to prove their effectiveness.

"Le Goût du néant" di Baudelaire e alcune sue versioni italiane. Un'analisi contrastiva (pp. 3-18)
Authors: Benzoni Pietro
Published: March 2024

Il saggio prende in esame Le Goût du néant di Baudelaire (LXXX componimento delle Fleurs du mal 1861) e mette a confronto le sei differenti versioni pubblicate, tra il 1893 e il 1999, da Sonzogno, De Nardis, Rendina, Bufalino, Muscetta e Raboni. Sono sei variazioni nel quadro di un corpus – quello dei Fiori del male italiani – particolarmente ricco e variegato. Un terreno privilegiato per i rilievi dell’analisi contrastiva, che viene qui condotta in due tempi: dapprima, evidenziando le peculiarità del testo originale e le specifiche difficoltà di trasposizione poste dalla compiutezza formale degli alexandrins baudelairiani; quindi, individuando le principali scelte stilistiche – metriche, lessicali e sintattiche – che caratterizzano le versioni considerate.
"Piazza Cavalleggeri 2" (e altro): De Angelis legge Bigongiari (pp. 131-164)
Authors: Natale Massimo
Published: March 2024

Milo De Angelis ha dedicato a Piero Bigongiari la propria tesi di laurea, e ha ribadito in più occasioni il suo legame con la poesia del maestro, oltre che l’affetto per la sua persona. Il contributo analizza anzitutto una poesia contenuta nella più recente raccolta deangelisiana, Linea intera, linea spezzata (2021), Piazza Cavalleggeri 2, esplicitamente dedicata a Bigongiari. L’analisi si allarga poi ad altre reminiscenze che interessano, in particolare, l’ultimo ventennio della poesia deangelisiana, e che riguardano la memoria di singoli versi, immagini, emblemi presi in prestito da diverse raccolte del poeta fiorentino. Ne risulta un rapporto duraturo e profondo, che fa di Bigongiari una miniera fondamentale e concreta dell’immaginario poetico di Milo De Angelis.

El calendario sagrado El problema del tiempo en la sociología durkheimiana (I)
Authors: Ramos Torre Ramón
Published: March 2024

Al abordar sociológicamente el problema del tiempo, Durkheim no hizo sino intervenir en un debate muy vivo en su época. Ese debate tuvo en H. Bergson uno de sus protagonistas fundamentales. Su crítica ?temporalista? de la ciencia moderna fue rechazada por Durkheim, que la minusvaloró como simple patología ?mística?. Consecuente con ese rechazo, la sociología durkheimiana encontró dificultades para definir sus relaciones con la historia y construir una ?sociología dinámica? que diera cuenta del cambio histórico.

Profesiones y mercado
Authors: Brint Steven
Published: March 2024

Las profesiones y los profesionales están diferenciados en sus posiciones en el mercado y en sus posiciones de poder. Este artículo discutirá las razones que hacen que algunas profesiones y algunos profesionales estén mejor situados en el mercado y mejor pagados que otros. Argumento que las fuentes principales de valor y poder en el mercado son la capacidad de las profesiones para organizarse en el ejercicio privado, la contribución a los intereses de producción y eficacia de las organizaciones, el sector en el cual los profesionales están mayoritariamente empleados, y la composición por género de la ocupación. A pesar de la importancia de los mecanismos tradicionales de protección, estas cuatro fuentes de poder tienen una mayor capacidad para explicar la posición especial de las profesiones en la sociedad contemporánea así como las diferencias entre profesiones y entre sectores profesionales.
Policía, profesión y organización: Hacía un modelo integral de la Policía en España
Authors: Martín Fernández Manuel
Published: March 2024

La policía se puede analizar como una función del Estado, como una profesión o como una organización. En este artículo se hace una aproximación al tema desde estas tres perspectivas para acabar cuestionando el papel de la policía como simple garante de la ley y el orden. El policía debe resolver problemas de los ciudadanos al mismo tiempo que protege el interés general de la colectividad. El modelo de policía integral presentado es, en opinión del autor, el que mejor responde a estas demandas.
La mujer en el discurso político
Authors: Gaitán José , Cáceres Zapatero María Dolores
Published: March 2024

Este artículo es el resultado de un estudio sobre el "modelo de mujer" que se propone a la sociedad en los documentos elaborados por las formaciones políticas durante el período democrático constitucional de la historia española reciente (1979-1994): estatutos, declaraciones institucionales, idearios, programas electorales, etc. Constituye una aportación a la investigación sobre estereotipos sociales dentro de la que ha venido a llamarse sociología del género. Su propósito es avanzar en el conocimiento de cómo se construyen socialmente las representaciones colectivas, en general, y el estereotipo de la mujer, en particular.

Abstract: Equine and bovine milk extracellular particles were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, interferometric light microscopy and flow cytometry. Scanning electron microscopy revealed micro-sized globular particles and numerous nano-sized particles. Higher concentration of micro and nano-sized particles was found in skimmed milk when compared to the whole milk and the differences were statistically significant.

Endangered Butterflies and their Conservation: the Decline of Parnassius apollo and Phengaris spp. in Europe and Slovenia
Authors: Bonin Luka , Jeromen Matic , Jeran Marko
Published: March 2024

Abstract: This article addresses the alarming global decline in insect biomass and biodiversity and the decline of European butterfly populations, more notably in Slovenia. Between 1989 and 2016, a 76% decrease in insect biomass raises concerns for ecosystems reliant on pollinators and intricate food webs. Butterfly populations, echoing this decline, witnessed a 50% reduction between 1976 and 2021. Key contributors, including habitat loss, chemical pollution, and climate change, necessitate urgent conservation efforts. Focusing on the Apollo (Parnassius apollo) and genus Phengaris, the study emphasises the threats posed by global warming and habitat loss. Swift and comprehensive conservation measures are crucial to ensure the survival of these iconic species, moreover recognizing butterflies as "umbrella species" that safeguard broader ecosystems. Keywords: Butterflies, Decline, Phengaris, Parnassius apollo, Biodiversity, Conservation
Green Transition in Slovenian Building and Civil Engineering Industry: 10 Years of Research on Alkali-Activated Materials and Alkali-Activated Foams
Authors: Horvat Barbara , Mušič Branka
Published: March 2024

Abstract: The building and civil engineering industry yearly causes more than 40% of man-made CO2 and consumes raw materials for two-thirds of Mont Everest. To decrease the car-bon footprint and consumption of raw materials, alkali-activated materials (AAMs) are researched as an alternative to conventional building and civil engineering prod-ucts like cements, mortar, and ceramics. Ideally, locally available waste materials are used as ingredients: (i) as precursors that react with alkali and form an aluminosilicate network, and (ii) as fillers that get permanently encapsulated and safely stored in AAMs. The addition of gas bubbles and lightweight fillers transforms AAMs into alka-li-activated foams and alkali-activated lightweight materials that have the potential to be used as thermal and acoustic insulation materials. Although AAMs are researched worldwide, this review focuses on the state-of-the-art localised solely to Slovenia, par-ticularly on the materials and curing procedures used, as well as on the scientific con-tribution of the basic research. Besides, the year 2024 marks 10 years of research on al-kali activation of raw and waste inorganic materials in Slovenia. Keywords: Secondary raw materials; Alkali-activated materials; Alkali-activated foams; Low-temperature curing; Microwave curing; Circular economy
Features of the Formation of Cross-Cultural Communication Skills in IT Business
Authors: Dybach Inna
Published: March 2024

Abstract: Effective establishment of cross-cultural communication is a prerequisite for business success, regardless of the field in which it is organized or already exists. The issue ap-pears especially relevant against the background of the rapid development of infor-mation technologies, digitalization, socialization, and globalization of business. Cross-cultural communication is a process of information exchange among repre-sentatives of different cultures, which aims to establish mutual understanding through the achievement of conformity of different culturally determined value sys-tems. As the sector of information technology grows ever more complex, Information Technology (IT) professionals are called upon daily to explain technology applications to coworkers from other departments, managers, and customers. Building effective cross-cultural communication within an IT company and establishing the right communication links with stakeholders affect the effectiveness of management deci-sions both at the operational and strategic levels. Barriers to the formation of cross-cultural communication skills in the IT industry include IT professionals being used to working in isolation or functioning within tight-knit teams, differing work expectations, varying values and customs, and different levels of technological knowledge. Formation of cross-cultural communication skills should create a basis for effective establishment of communication in the development team, providing sup-port for the common organization of the group work on the processing of general in-formation and information linked to the project, creating conditions for collaborative software development, and promoting the formation and development of corporate culture in IT companies. Keywords: Communication; Cross-cultural communication; Skills; IT business; IT services; IT team
Economic and Financial Analysis of Artificial Intelligence's Impact on Law and Legal Profession
Authors: Kocjančič Rok
Published: March 2024

Abstract: Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer (ChatGPT) and other Large Language Models (LLMs) present a significant disruption to the legal profession. Their ability to generate text in a way that closely resembles human writing and the nature of their training which equips them with large amounts of data present significant competi-tion to individual lawyers and an opportunity for large increase in their productivity. They also mean changes on firm level. Technology firms have already entered the market, offering legal LLMs and other solutions to augment the work of lawyers and other legal experts. However, due to the nature of the legal profession, proprietary solutions are probably preferred over the long term. Those require significant capital expenditures by law firms, which are currently restricted by legal obstacles to outside capital being invested in law firms. Bar association rules will probably have to be re-laxed to maintain competitiveness with firms from countries with looser regulation. Keywords: large language models, LLMs, law, lawyers, bar association, investment, finance

Abstract: The article examines the importance and application of open source intelligence tech-nologies (OSINT) in today's digital age. OSINT is defined as the systematic process of gathering and analysing information from open sources to draw informed conclusions and make effective decisions. The application of OSINT-technologies is becoming an integral part of the strategic analytical process in areas such as cyber security, intelli-gence, law enforcement, intelligence and public safety. The main focus of the study is a specific aspect of this broad spectrum – the OSINT Framework, which is a set of tools and resources for collecting and analysing infor-mation from open sources on the Internet. Using this framework allows us to study, monitor and analyse a variety of data to identify patterns, trends and potential threats. The article defines the purpose of scientific research and in-depth analysis of OSINT, in particular the OSINT Framework, with the aim of understanding its structure, func-tionality and effectiveness in solving tasks in the field of intelligence, cyber security and data analysis. The overall state of OSINT-technologies is defined by a wide variety of tools, including social networks, geospatial analysis, textual and visual information analysis, data mining platforms, and ethnographic analysis. The use of scientific methods and tech-nologies in this area allows you to optimize the processes of data collection and analy-sis, providing more insights for making informed decisions.
