Silybum marianum is an annual herb with a wide range of therapeutic
values due to its high nutritional content. The compositional analysis of different parts of
this plant, such as seeds and leaves, was performed using calibration-free laser-induced
breakdown spectroscopy. The optical emission spectra from laser-generated plasma of
seeds and leaves revealed the elemental profile, including Mg, Na, Ca, K, Si, Al, Zn, Rb,
Sr, Fe, Ti, Ba, C, O, H, and N. The study was focused on improving LIBS based quantitative
analysis by reducing self-absorption using two approaches.In the first approach, a theoretical
model based on the internal reference line method and the relation between experimental
and theoretical broadening was established to reduce self-absorption in the measured
spectral line at atmospheric pressure. In the second approach, the self-absorption was
evaluated at reduced pressure, which shows considerably reduced for most of the spectral
lines at 10 mbar pressure. Thereafter, the theoretical model was applied at reduced pressure
to further correct the line intensities. Finally, the self-absorption corrected line intensities
were used for the compositional analysis of the plant using one-line CF-LIBS. The
analytical results obtained with both approaches show that the results of the theoretical
model at a reduced pressure are in close agreement with the ICP-MS results.

The helical waveguide array is a well accepted model for fabricating the photonic topological insulator, since it introduces a gauge field to break the equivalent time-reversal symmetry of the system. However, there is a threshold, from both physical and mathematical point of view, for acquiring the corresponding band structure, especially for the beginners and even grown-up researchers. As far as we know, a tutorial on how to solve this problem is still absent from the scientific literature. To break the technique fence and provide a friendly documentation, we sort out this tutorial in detail based on our almost ten-year work experience in this area. Utilizing the tight-binding method with the nearest-neighbor coupling considered, we provide two methods to numerically calculate the band structure: the Floquet operator method and the Fourier expansion method. The main formulae and key codes are displayed. We believe this tutorial is a useful introduction in topological photonics and may be a shortcut for scientists who would like to venture into research areas related with topological physical objects.

Strength Prediction of Fiber-Reinforced Clay Soils Stabilized with Lime Using XGBoost Machine Learning
Authors: Sari-Ahmed Billal , Benzaamia Ali , Ghrici Mohamed , Moghal Arif Ali Baig
Published: June 2024

This article proposes a predictive model for the compressive strength (UCS) of lime-stabilized clay soils reinforced with polypropylene fibers (PPF) using the extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) algorithm. The research indicates that the developed model is highly effective and can serve as a reliable tool for anticipating the UCS of these specific soils. A comparison between experimental data and model predictions suggests that it can effectively elucidate the impact of the combined effect of lime and PPF on the compressive strength of clay soils, thus avoiding the need for new experiments to formulate new compositions. Furthermore, a parametric analysis reveals the benefits of fiber incorporation, particularly at an optimum lime content of 6% dosage. The results also show that an optimal fiber content of 1.25% and a length of 18 mm are essential for achieving satisfactory results. These findings have significant implications for the planning and implementing fibre treatments, allowing for considerably enhancing soil strength. They provide a solid foundation for more precise and effective interventions in the lime stabilization of clay soils, thus paving the way for more efficient practices in this area of research.

Published: June 2024

Due to the escalating water demands, in addition to sever water shortage, Jordan has done the most, making reuse a priority in their national water resources strategy. The waste stabilization ponds (WSP) represent the most economical method for wastewater treatment. For these reasons, many treatment plants were built in Jordan Since 1984 where more than 78% of all wastewater discharges had been treated in WSP. Recently, most of these plants were changed to mechanical technologies. The present study aims to evaluate the efficiency of the existing wastewater treatment technologies and to determine the necessity of modified systems. In addition, 80 samples of wastewater collected from the wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) inlet and outlet, analysed for BOD, COD, TSS, and NH4 parameters. Ramtha WWTP was chosen a case study to assess the environmental impact of using modern technologies. Results indicated that the existing treatment plants are facing over hydraulic and organic loads, which cause significant deterioration in their efficiencies. Most of the plants are incapable to achieve the required standards for water reuse. The modern technologies provided high removal efficiencies, better control of odours, operation flexibility, and lower environmental load. Modern treatment technologies can create additional water resources, which is very important parameter in Jordan's water budget. Adequate design, using modern treatment technologies, enacting stricter regulations and better management of urban and rural waste will create more than 200 million cubic meter per year of treated water, which can be reused for irrigation.
Downstream Emissions as Climate Impacts
Authors: Shapovalova Daria
Published: June 2024

In a 3-2 majority, the UK Supreme Court delivered a landmark ruling today, significantly impacting the consideration of climate impacts in the oil and gas licensing process. While the Government’s approach so far has been to only consider exploration and production emissions, the Court’s decision establishes that emissions resulting from burning the produced oil and gas (regardless of where it occurs) have to also be considered. The ruling is significant as it is the first highest court decision to adopt this interpretation on climate impacts of fossil fuel production. It will no doubt have a knock-on effect on at least three other cases pending before lower courts in the UK, and potentially affect cases both within and outside the European Union.

Este artículo de investigación se embarca en un análisis de los desafíos que enfrenta Ecuador dentro del sistema penal en la protección de la biodiversidad, explorando las deficiencias en el seguimiento de denuncias y de sanciones establecidas en el Código Orgánico Integral Penal para los delitos contra la biodiversidad. Está motivado por la creciente proliferación de actividades ilícitas que amenazan la integridad ecológica del país, este estudio evalúa si el marco sancionador vigente cumple su propósito disuasivo y si la tipificación de delitos es suficiente. Emplea una metodología multidimensional que abarca la revisión bibliográfica, el análisis de casos emblemáticos y un enfoque comparativo con legislaciones internacionales. La investigación revela una preocupante brecha entre la norma y su aplicación práctica. Las estadísticas sobre denuncias y procesamientos judiciales de delitos ambientales son alarmantes, con una abrumadora cantidad de casos archivados o sobreseídos en comparación con las sentencias condenatorias desde 2020 a 2023. Los hallazgos destacan antinomias y anomias en el marco legal y social ecuatoriano, creando incertidumbre y dificultando la protección de los ecosistemas. También se señala la necesidad de tipificar conductas que afectan la biodiversidad, como la biopiratería y el maltrato de especies en experimentos científicos. Este estudio busca concienciar sobre la necesidad de reformar el marco legal ecuatoriano y sirve como un valioso caso de estudio para otros países megadiversos. Subraya la urgencia de mejorar la aplicación de sanciones y fortalecer la conciencia ambiental y la cohesión en la aplicación de la ley para proteger la biodiversidad ecuatoriana.

A todos los incluidos en el estudio se les realizo historia clínica adaptada al estudio, examen físico completo que incluirá medidas antropométricas, y composición corporal por impedanciometria, pruebas de laboratorio que determinarán glucemia e insulina basal, adiponectina, y se calculara HOMA IR. Los datos obtenidos, fueron analizados estadísticamente y se estudió las relaciones entre los parámetros por el software STATA 17. Resultados: No hubo diferencia en edad (p = 0,479) y sexo (p = 0,120) entre obesos y controles; el patrón en la alteración de la composición corporal se observó en el grupo obesos al comparar con el control. La adiponectina se correlacionó de manera inversa con las variables de composición corporal [IMC: r = -0,735; p < 0,001. Cintura: r = -0,609; p < 0,001 y porcentaje de grasa: r = -0,566; p < 0,001]. En los parámetros lipídicos, correlación inversa con LDL (r = -0,300; p = 0,031). Y el perfil de resistencia a la insulina, correlación inversa con insulina: r = -0,474; p < 0,001. glucemia basal: r = -0,425; p < 0,001 y HOMA-IR: r = -0,441 p < 0,001. Conclusión: La disminución de los niveles de adiponectina desempeña un papel central en el desarrollo de la diabetes tipo 2, la obesidad y las enfermedades cardiovasculares en humanos.

Las hiperlipidemias secundarias son aquellos trastornos del metabolismo de los lípidos que aparecen como resultado de enfermedades que no afectan de forma primaria al metabolismo de los lípidos, o bien como consecuencia del uso de fármacos o tóxicos. Debido a que las hiperlipidemias secundarias son frecuentes en la práctica clínica habitual, las de mayor interés en la atención primaria por su relevancia clínica y frecuencia, son las que se encuentran asociadas a hipotiroidismo, obesidad, síndrome de Cushing, así como la diabetes mellitus, que esta última no será tratada en este artículo.
Tinjauan Fiqih Munakahat terhadap Tradisi Perkawinan Nyuwita Ngawula di Masyarakat Suku Samin, Kecamatan Kradenan, Kabupaten Blora
Authors: M Yosi Ramadan  , Ahmad Farishin Ikhwan  , Muhibban
Published: June 2024

This research aims to examine this tradition from the perspective of munakahat jurisprudence. This research uses a qualitative approach with case study methods and field observations. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with traditional leaders, religious leaders and the Samin tribe community. The Nyuwita Ngawula tradition, a traditional wedding tradition of the Samin tribe which is full of meaning and positive values, has an important role in building marital harmony. This tradition provides an opportunity for the prospective husband and wife to get to know and understand each other before getting married, as well as helping the prospective wife's family to assess the seriousness and abilities of the prospective husband. This tradition requires the prospective husband to stay with his prospective wife for 3-7 days. While living at the prospective wife's house, the prospective husband is obliged to help with household chores in order to get an assessment from the prospective in-laws. This nyuwita mgawula tradition has several positive impacts, such as getting to know each other before marriage, and feeling caring and mutual cooperation in a household relationship. The results of the research show that the Nyuwita Ngawula tradition has some conformity with the principles of munakahat fiqh, such as the existence of a marriage guardian, dowry, and marriage vows. However, there are several aspects that need to be addressed. The conclusion of this research is that the Nyuwita Ngawula tradition needs to be adjusted to be more in line with munakahat fiqh. This can be done through educating the Samin tribe community about the harmony and legal requirements for marriage, as well as separating the residence of the prospective bride and groom during the ngawula period.
Social inequity in health among patients with severe obesity and multimorbidity
Authors: Hjorth Mads Fiil , Astrup Arne
Published: June 2024

INTRODUCTION. Obesity adversely affects the health of the individual and impacts society through increased healthcare costs and lost workdays. Individuals in lower socioeconomic groups are more severely affected. Here, we examined people living with severe obesity and comorbidities across educational levels. METHODS. Individuals with a BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 and aged ≥ 16 years from the Danish National Health Survey 2021 were categorised into five educational levels and according to their number of obesity-related comorbidities (0, 1, 2 and ≥ 3). RESULTS. A total of 5.8% had a BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2, ranging from 2.2% to 10.7% in the 98 municipalities, and from 2.6% to 8.8% according to education level. Among individuals with a BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 and the shortest education, 13.4% had no comorbidities, and 45.6% had ≥ 3 comorbidities. In contrast, among individuals with a BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 and the longest education, 47.4% had no comorbidities, and 14.6% had ≥ 3 comorbidities. Among those with a BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 and ≥ 3 comorbidities, 73.6% had elementary or vocational school as their highest education level, and 3.4% had a long higher education. CONCLUSIONS. The prevalence of individuals living with a BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 differs by 3-5-fold depending on municipality and between the lowest and highest educational level. Additionally, the less educated group living with a BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 was three times more likely to have ≥ 3 comorbidities than the most educated group. Hence, more research is warranted to understand the underlying causes and reduce social inequity in health. FUNDING. Novo Nordisk Fonden. TRIAL REGISTRATION. Not relevant.
The story of -š/-iš: the comparative in Ukrainian
Authors: Vyshnevska Anastasiia
Published: June 2024

The comparative suffix in Ukrainian seemingly has four allomorphs: the productive form –iš, and the non-productive forms –š, –č, and –šč. This paper is based on a claim by Bevzenko (1960) that the suffixes –č and –šč are derived from –š, being a result of assimilative-dissimilative changes. As a result, the number of suffixes can be reduced to two, namely –š and –iš. I will show that the distribution of these two suffixes in Ukrainian is not regulated by phonology.

A Case Report of Chronic Mesenteric Ischemia Secondary to Superior Mesenteric Artery Stenosis: A Rare Cause of Abdominal Pain
Authors: Wiinter Jennifer , Hojilla Rochie
Published: June 2024

Chronic Mesenteric Ischemia (CMI) is a rare cause of abdominal pain as vascular disorders tend to be last of the differential diagnoses considered in patients presenting with gastrointestinal symptoms. This is a case of a 58-year-old male who presented with a 2-year history of intermittent abdominal pain associated with sitophobia and undocumented weight loss. He had several in-hospital admissions and after a series of unremarkable diagnostic tests he was diagnosed with chronic mesenteric ischemia secondary to superior mesenteric artery stenosis as evidenced through computed tomography angiography. He underwent an aorto-SMA bypass with an 8mm Dacron graft. The main goals for revascularization of CMI are improving quality of life and prevention of bowel infarction. As CMI is a rare cause of abdominal pain, the patients tend to be victims of diagnostic delays. Early recognition and timely intervention are key in the management of this condition. Key words: Mesenteric ischemia, abdominal pain, vascular diseases
The Impact of Fiscal Policy Uncertainty on Fiscal Sustainability—Based on China’s Empirical Data
Authors: Zhang Ke , Fu Kun
Published: June 2024

Fiscal policy uncertainty refers to unpredictability in government taxation and spending decisions, affecting economic planning, investment, and consumer behavior, leading to market volatility and potential economic slowdowns. In this research, we intend to analyze the impact of uncertain fiscal policies on fiscal sustainability in China, utilizing empirical data. We aim to elucidate how fluctuations in government expenses, budget uncertainties, and tax collection affect fiscal sustainability, with potential mitigating effects explored through financial sector development indicators. This study employs Panel Vector Auto regression (PVAR) to analyze the association between uncertain fiscal policies and fiscal sustainability in China. PVAR facilitates the examination of dynamic interactions among variables across multiple time series and cross-sectional units. This investigation demonstrates that fiscal policy uncertainty resulting from government expenses, budget uncertainties, and tax collection has a significant negative influence on China's economic development. However, financial development measures such as the ratio of liquid expenses and loans to the business community have a moderating influence. These findings highlight the significance of improving the growth of the financial sector to mitigate the negative implications of unpredictable fiscal policy and encourage sustainable fiscal increases over a longer period.

Published: June 2024

While it is widely acknowledged that bank credit can contribute to a country's economic growth by providing essential financing to the public and private sectors, the relationship between economic growth and bank credit is complex.  This study aims to explore the impact of bank credit, along with four other variables, domestic credit to private sector, deposit interest rate, inflation rate, and non-performing loans on economic growth in six Western Balkan countries from 2008-2021. The research, based on secondary data from international organizations, the World Bank, and National Statistical Agencies, utilized Panel data with 69 observations. Various econometric models including OLS, fixed effects and random effects were used due to unbalanced panels. Findings suggest a mixed impact of bank credit on growth, with inflation rate positively affecting it, while domestic credit to private sector, deposit interest rate, and non-performing loans have negative effects.

Stunting, stemming from chronic malnutrition in young children, presents a significant public health challenge in Indonesia, impairing physical, mental, cognitive, and intellectual growth. Protein deficiency notably contributes to this condition. Tilapia, a readily available and cost-effective animal protein source, contains essential complete proteins. This study investigates how tilapia consumption impacts stunted toddlers' growth and development. Employing systematic review methods following PRISMA guidelines, searches on Scopus and Google Scholar using specific keywords yielded 17 relevant articles from the last decade. Findings suggest that supplementing food and fortifying diets positively affect stunted toddlers' height and weight, while nutrition education enhances maternal knowledge and practices. Combined interventions are more effective than singular ones. Tilapia's nutritional richness in protein, omega-3, vitamin B12, iron, phosphorus, and selenium supports stunted toddlers' growth and development, potentially preventing stunting and improving their nutritional status. Regular tilapia consumption fosters bone, muscle, and brain development, positively influencing weight, height, and overall health. Widening tilapia accessibility can aid in mitigating stunting and enhancing toddler nutrition. Incorporating tilapia into diets alongside proper education and stimulation represents a promising strategy against stunting in Indonesia. Strengthening promotion efforts and parental education regarding tilapia's benefits is crucial for combating stunting effectively.
