Extra-contractual liability is an important institution recognized in the civil codes of many countries, including the French Republic and Vietnam. It is the obligation to repair the damage that one causes to a third party. Or, it can be defined as the obligation imposed on a person to repair damage suffered by another person. However, in certain cases which are provided for by law, the victim of the damage will not be compensated, for example: force majeure, the fault of the victim, the victim does not apply the necessary and reasonable measures to prevent and limit the damage, etc. This article presents and analyzes the provision relating to the obligation to limit the damages of the victim, within the extra contractual liability, which interests us, in the Vietnamese and French laws in a broad way, that is to say in s relying on the texts of laws, case law and doctrine. This is a new provision, it is derived from British law (the theory of mitigation of damages), and is recognized in the Civil Code of Vietnam since 2015. Meanwhile, in France, in addition to efforts lawyers in the recognition of this provision in French law in the program of legislative reform, this question still comes up against many contradictory points of view. Through this article, the author wishes to contribute to bringing multidimensional perspectives related to the obligation to limit the damages of the victim in extra contractual liability, and at the same time to propose some solutions concerning the types of damage for which the victim is obliged to limit, necessary and reasonable measures, the costs or damages incurred by the victim in order to minimize his damage in order to contribute to the improvement of Vietnam's legal regulations on this issue.

Published: October 2023

The research aims to analyze the affecting work stress caused by the coronavirus pandemic on a commitment to the organization, job satisfaction, and intention to quit the healthcare workforce at public hospitals in Hanoi. Snowball sampling method was used to obtain research data from 339 healthcare workers at Hanoi’s public hospitals through an inquiry form. The collected data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, reliability test, Exploratory Factor Analysis, Confirmatory Factor Analysis, and Structural Equation Modeling. The study reveals that work stress due to the COVID-19 pandemic has an inverse influence on a commitment to the organization and satisfaction of the healthcare workforce during the coronavirus epidemic, but it increased their intention to quit of them. Furthermore, commitment to the organization is a considerable influence on satisfaction at the job. Moreover, commitment and satisfaction have a negative impact on the intention to quit of the healthcare workforce. This study systematically looked at literature on stress at the job, commitment to the organization, satisfaction at the job to intention to quit the job. The above findings allow managers of Hanoi’s public hospitals to better acknowledge the importance of commitment to the organization, satisfaction at the job, as well as the terrible impact of work stress during the COVID-19 pandemic, thereby they can find appropriate implications to overcome future difficulties towards sustainable development. Besides, this study contributes greatly to building knowledge in the HRM sector as well as identifies the relationship of 3 factors that influence the intention to quit of the healthcare workforce at Hanoi’s public hospitals. More importantly, the research results suggested some crucial implications for public hospitals to enhance organizational commitment and job satisfaction as well as reduce the intention to quit of employees working at public hospitals in Hanoi in the future.

Published: October 2023

Transforming growth factor-1 (TGF-1), a cytokine with immunosuppressive and pro-fibrogenic activity, is a potential marker of infection, liver transplant rejection, and fibrosis. Its levels in the blood and tissues depend on many factors; however, the role of gene polymorphism is still unclear. In this work, the distribution frequency of three single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variants of the Tgfb1 gene, namely rs1800469, rs1800470, and rs1800471, was studied in children with end-stage liver disease (ESLD). The study included 225 pediatric liver recipients aged 1 month to 16 years (median, 8 months), including 100 boys and 125 girls, and 198 healthy individuals aged 32.7 9.6 years, including 78 men and 120 women. The indication for liver transplantation in children was ESLD, which was mostly caused by congenital and inherited liver diseases. SNPs were detected by real-time polymerase chain reaction using TaqMan probes and DNA isolated from peripheral blood. SNP frequency distribution was in HardyWeinberg equilibrium and did not differ between children with liver diseases and the healthy ones. Analysis of the SNPs frequency based on allelic interaction models did not reveal any differences between patients and the healthy individuals. Evaluation of linkage disequilibrium for Tgfb1 polymorphic variant pairs revealed a statistically significant linkage between all studied variants. Seven haplotypes, which are variants of SNP combinations, were observed in the studied groups of patients and healthy individuals. A total of 80% of the group had three haplotypes, whose frequencies did not differ between patients and the healthy individuals. Significant differences were found in the frequency of the haplotypes A-A-C, G-G-C, and G-A-G (at rs1800469, rs1800470, and rs1800471, respectively), which were observed up to 11 times more often in recipients compared to the healthy individuals. It is possible that these haplotypes are ESLD-predisposing variants, which may also contribute to the development of complications after liver transplantation in children.
Modern Approaches to the Genome Editing of Antibiotic Biosynthetic Clusters in Actinomycetes

Published: October 2023

Representatives of the phylum Actinomycetota are one of the main sources of secondary metabolites, including antibiotics of various classes. Modern studies using high-throughput sequencing techniques enable the detection of dozens of potential antibiotic biosynthetic genome clusters in many actinomycetes; however, under laboratory conditions, production of secondary metabolites amounts to less than 5% of the total coding potential of producer strains. However, many of these antibiotics have already been described. There is a continuous rediscovery of known antibiotics, and new molecules become almost invisible against the general background. The established approaches aimed at increasing the production of novel antibiotics include: selection of optimal cultivation conditions by modifying the composition of nutrient media; co-cultivation methods; microfluidics, and the use of various transcription factors to activate silent genes. Unfortunately, these tools are non-universal for various actinomycete strains, stochastic in nature, and therefore do not always lead to success. The use of genetic engineering technologies is much more efficient, because they allow for a directed and controlled change in the production of target metabolites. One example of such technologies is mutagenesis-based genome editing of antibiotic biosynthetic clusters. This targeted approach allows one to alter gene expression, suppressing the production of previously characterized molecules, and thereby promoting the synthesis of other unknown antibiotic variants. In addition, mutagenesis techniques can be successfully applied both to new producer strains and to the genes of known isolates to identify new compounds.
Chromosomal Aberrations as a Biological Phenomenon in Human Embryonic Development
Authors: Ivanova Anna D. , Semenova Maria L.
Published: October 2023

Frequent chromosomal abnormalities are a distinctive feature of early embryonic development in mammals, especially humans. Aneuploidy is considered as a contributing factor to failed embryo implantation and spontaneous abortions. In the case of chromosomal mosaicism, its effect on the potency of embryos to normally develop has not been sufficiently studied. Although, a significant percentage of chromosomal defects in early human embryos are currently believed to be associated with the features of clinical and laboratory protocols, in this review, we focus on the biological mechanisms associated with chromosomal abnormalities. In particular, we address the main events in oocyte meiosis that affects not only the genetic status of an unfertilized oocyte, but also further embryo viability, and analyze the features of first cleavage divisions and the causes of frequent chromosomal errors in early embryonic development. In addition, we discuss current data on self-correction of the chromosomal status in early embryos.

Published: October 2023

The leukocyte common antigen CD45 is a receptor tyrosine phosphatase and one of the most prevalent antigens found on the surface of blood cells. CD45 plays a crucial role in the initial stages of signal transmission from receptors of various immune cell types. Immunodeficiency, autoimmune disorders, and oncological diseases are frequently caused by gene expression disorders and imbalances in CD45 isoforms. Despite extensive research into the structure and functions of CD45, the molecular mechanisms behind its role in transmitting signals from T-cell receptors and chimeric antigen receptors remain not fully understood. It is of utmost importance to comprehend the structural features of CD45 and its function in regulating immune system cell activation to study oncological diseases and the impact of CD45 on lymphocytes and T cells modified by chimeric antigen receptors.

There are various ways to teach different subjects at any educational level. Through robotics, various formal components can be understood. Mathematics, physics, and programming languages are often the areas where robotics has the greatest impact. However, this does not prevent subjects like geography, arts, Portuguese language, and biology, among others, from using this tool. The aim of this article is to identify how educational robotics is used as a teaching tool in core subjects, with an emphasis on Professional and Technological Education (PTE) in Brazil, from 2017 to 2022. For this purpose, an integrative review was conducted on the influence of robotics as a supportive element in the teaching methodology of professional education subjects in Brazil, with a focus on Amapá, using the Google Scholar database for the specified period. It is concluded that when used correctly, robotics applied to education is a technological tool that provides students with meaningful learning, allowing them to be active participants in the process. The alignment between theory and practice in contextualized classes allows students to engage in challenging experiments that enrich their knowledge and overall education.

Migration of the population due to full-scale military aggression against Ukraine
Authors:   Chernihiv Polytechnic National University, Kolomiyets Natalia , Goletc Vitaliy ,   T.H. Shevchenko National University “Chernihiv Colehium”
Published: October 2023

The article highlights the changes in the migration situation in Ukraine after the full-scale military invasion of the Russian Federation, and proposes proposals for improving migration policy based on its analysis. It is determined that after the full-scale military invasion on February 24, 2022, Ukraine faced unprecedented challenges in its modern history. The military aggression against Ukraine has led to an unprecedented migration of the Ukrainian population since World War II. After Ukraine gained independence on August 24, 1991. Ukraine gained its independence on 24 November 1991, migration went through a certain evolution: at first, movements were mainly ethnic (due to the collapse of the USSR), Ukrainians and Crimean Tatars, formerly politically repressed, returned to their homeland, and, over time, socio-economic factors of migration became decisive. As a result of the war, migration from Ukraine abroad became the only option for many Ukrainians to save their lives and families. Although temporary migration remains the predominant model of migration behaviour, there is a growing tendency for temporary migration to turn into permanent migration, which threatens to inevitably lead to the loss of a part of the intellectual and labour potential. The author proposes to urgently formulate an adequate state migration policy and legislation that will help ensure regulated and safe migration, protect the rights of migrants and create security, economic and social preconditions for the return of Ukrainians to their homeland. Key words: migration; migration policy; military aggression; Ukraine
Characteristics of persons committing fraud against a foreigner or stateless person: international and national legislation

Published: October 2023

Since foreigners and stateless persons who stay in Ukraine on legal grounds enjoy the same rights and freedoms and bear the same responsibilities as citizens of Ukraine, with the exceptions established by the Constitution, laws or international treaties of Ukraine, foreigners and stateless persons who are under the jurisdiction of Ukraine, regardless of the legality of their stay, have the right to recognition of their legal personality and fundamental human rights and freedoms. In addition, the legal status of foreigners and stateless persons is based on the fact that foreigners and stateless persons who are legally in Ukraine enjoy the same rights and freedoms and bear the same responsibilities as citizens of Ukraine, with the exceptions established by the Constitution, laws or international treaties of Ukraine; foreigners and stateless persons are obliged to strictly observe the Constitution and laws of Ukraine, other regulatory legal acts, not to infringe on the rights and freedoms, honor and dignity of other people, interests of society and the state. Foreigners and stateless persons enjoy numerous economic rights and freedoms in Ukraine, and as subjects of private property rights, foreigners and stateless persons may also own, use and dispose of their property and the results of their intellectual and creative activities. They may own houses, apartments, personal items, means of production, funds, and are also subjects of freedom of entrepreneurship, the right to housing, and the right to an adequate standard of living. But it is also necessary to take into account that the most vulnerable to criminal offenses against them are foreigners (a person who is not a citizen of Ukraine and is a citizen (subject) of another state or states) and stateless persons (a person whom no state considers its citizen in accordance with its legislation), who may become victims of a criminal offense against property (for example, fraud) and criminal offenses of a different nature (fraud or breach of trust), so we Whereas, fraud (taking possession of someone else’s property or acquiring the right to property by deception or breach of trust) is a universal norm that covers any type of fraud and has an unlawful effect on the will and consciousness of the victim in the form of deception or breach of trust, whereas fraud is the concealment of certain information or communication of false information to the victim with the aim of misleading the victim (foreigner or stateless person), and breach of trust is the unfair use of trust by the victim (who are foreigners or stateless persons). Key words: fraud; stateless person; foreigner; criminal liability; deception; breach of trust.
Criminal responsibility as the only criterion of the real fight against human trafficking
Authors:   National Academy of Internal Affairs, Musatenko Vita
Published: October 2023

In this article the real state of criminal responsibility for human trafficking in recent years is highlighted, as well as suggestions for improving the mechanism of bringing guilty persons to criminal responsibility. The article shows that despite the successes in international cooperation in the field of combating human trafficking, the real indicators of prosecution have been decreasing in recent years. Lenient sentences do not adequately reflect the nature of the crime and undermine broader efforts to combat human trafficking. In addition to the corruption that makes human trafficking go unpunished, it is telling that for the sixth year in a row, none of the officials involved have been sentenced. The adopted anti-trafficking program until 2025 lists only, mostly not new, goals that will contribute to anti-trafficking in the form of detecting and solving crimes, but the document itself does not mention the main indicator of the success of the system of criminal responsibility for human trafficking. At the same time, without criminal liability, all efforts to combat human trafficking become useless, and therefore the system needs real changes in the implementation of criminal legislation, including the introduction of an electronic court, the terms of consideration of cases, and the redistribution of cases from courts that are unable to handle them due to excessive workload consider the case in the courts that have the possibility to consider the case. Key words: criminal liability; human trafficking; report; anti-trafficking program until 2025

Published: October 2023

У статті розкрито особливості психологічної підтримки жінок з дітьми, які вимушено опинились за межами України. Визначено, що реакції на стрес взаємопов’язано з устремлінням особистості до самостійності у вирішення проблем постановкою цілей, визначенням стратегій їх досягнення. Це дає підстави говорити про формування позитивного настрою, позитивних переживань жінок, самостійного вибору стратегій їх досягнення. Саме зв’язок між вибором стратегії самостійного вибору в стресових ситуаціях та позитивних емоцій формує адаптацію до нових умов життєдіяльності. Якщо жінка ефективно використовує можливості, здатна створювати умови і обставини, відповідні для задоволення власних потреб і досягнення цілей, то це створює умови для отримання задоволення, відновлення її психологічного здоров’я. Це формує почуття психологічного благополуччя. Якщо жінка має труднощі в організації повсякденної діяльності, почуває себе нездатною змінити обставини, позбавлена почуття контролю над тим, що відбувається навкруги, то їй важко адаптуватись до нових життєвих умов. На основі проведеного аналізу теоретико-прикладних досліджень визначено, що існують особистісні зміни у вимушених мігрантів з України не залежно від країни їх тимчасового перебування. Схарактеризовані психологічні особливості українських жінок з дітьми, що опинилися в Болгарії внаслідок війни, та основні форми й методи роботи з ними. Технології впливу були підібрані саме для групової роботи (через взаємодію з дітьми) і індивідуальну роботу онлайн з психотерапевтом. Такий підхід налагодження психологічного здоров’я жінок через взаємодію дітей в групі змінював у жінок тип реакції на стрес. У жінок налагоджувались стосунки одна з одною, з представниками адміністрації, сусідами, їх діти починали товаришувати між собою, з іншими дітьми.

Охарактеризовано групи дітей молодшого шкільного віку, які потребують особливих умов навчання та проведено теоретичний аналіз психологічних особливостей молодших школярів, що навчаються за інклюзивною освітою. Виявлено фактори, які впливають на психологічний досвід школярів інклюзивного класу, такі як соціальне середовище та взаємодія батьків, психологів та педагогів. Констатовано, що взаємодія педагогів, школярів класу, батьків створюють сприятливе освітнє середовище для учнів молодшого шкільного віку, що навчаються в інклюзивному класі. Основна ідея концепції інклюзивного навчання – визнання важливості індивідуалізованої підтримки кожної дитини, формування позитивної Я-концепції, реалізації соціальної інтеграції та універсального дизайну навчання для сприяння психологічного благополуччя учнів молодшого шкільного віку. Впроваджуючи практику модель інклюзії в систему освіти, є можливість створити більш справедливе та інклюзивне суспільство, яке цінує, підтримує унікальні здібності та потенціал усіх учасників освітнього процесу. Презентовано результати емпіричного дослідження психологічних особливостей молодших школярів в умовах інклюзивної освіти, проаналізовано фактори, що впливають на досвід їх навчання. Діти молодшого шкільного віку з особливими освітніми потребами в освітньому середовищі класу, навчального закладу зустрічаються із непростими та специфічними викликами, котрі пов’язані не тільки з навчанням та соціальною, шкільною адаптацією. Їх спілкування з однолітками дуже часто супроводжується тривожністю, низькою самооцінкою та негативними емоційними станами. Вивчення та розуміння психологічних особливостей дітей молодшого шкільного віку з особливими освітніми потребами дозволить фахівцям розробити, впровадити спеціалізовані, індивідуальні підходи до навчання та розвитку, що враховують їх інтереси, освітні потреби, особливості темпераменту, характеру, здібностей, індивідуального стилю навчання та виховання, мотиваційні тенденції.

Options for modifying UK alcohol and tobacco tax: A rapid scoping review of the evidence over the period 1997–2018
Authors: Hatchard Jenny , Buykx Penny , Brennan Alan , Gillespie Duncan
Published: October 2023

Background Increased taxation is recognised worldwide as one of the most effective interventions for decreasing tobacco and harmful alcohol use, with many variations of policy options available. This rapid scoping review was part of a NIHR-funded project (‘SYNTAX’ 16/105/26) and was undertaken during 2018 to inform interviews to be conducted with UK public health stakeholders with expertise in alcohol and tobacco pricing policy. Methods Objectives: To synthesise evidence and debates on current and potential alcohol and tobacco taxation options for the UK, and report on the underlying objectives, evidence of effects and mediating factors. Eligibility criteria: Peer-reviewed and grey literature; published 1997–2018; English language; UK-focused; include taxation interventions for alcohol, tobacco, or both. Sources of evidence: PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Library, Google, stakeholder and colleague recommendations. Charting methods Excel spreadsheet structured using PICO framework, recording source characteristics and content. Results Ninety-one sources qualified for inclusion: 49 alcohol, 36 tobacco, 6 both. Analysis identified four policy themes: changes to excise duty within existing tax structures, structural reforms, industry measures, and hypothecation of tax revenue for public benefits. For alcohol, policy options focused on raising the price of cheap, high-strength alcohol. For tobacco, policy options focused on raising the price of all tobacco products, especially the cheapest products, which are hand-rolling tobacco. For alcohol and tobacco, there were options such as levies that take money from the industries to help reduce the societal costs of their products. Due to the perceived social and economic importance of alcohol in contrast to tobacco, policy options also discussed supporting pubs and small breweries. Conclusions This review has identified a set of tax policy options for tobacco and alcohol, their objectives, evidence of effects and related mediating factors. The differences between alcohol and tobacco tax policy options and debates suggest an opportunity for cross-substance policy learning.

Активний розвиток складових системи освіти дорослих сприяв приверненню уваги міжнародної спільноти до питань дотримання прав незахищених категорій осіб, які потребують особливого ставлення та захисту. Однією з таких категорій є особи з обмеженими можливостями. В означеному контексті інтерес представляє система підтримки професійної активності осіб з обмеженими можливостями на працю, яка достатньо ефективно впроваджується у країнах ЄС. У процесі створення такої системи та розроблення ефективних шляхів її імплементації доцільно враховувати досвід зарубіжних країн, де така система функціонує досить успішно вже тривалий час.

Світовий досвід у сфері реабілітації, зайнятості та надання соціальних послуг для осіб з обмеженими можливостями, сприятиме практичній реалізації державних програм та заходів з соціального захисту для людей з інвалідністю.

Commercial shipping has been associated with many introductions of marine invasive species globally. Unintentional transport stowaways in ship ballast water and biofouling account for the most unintentional marine introductions globally. Understanding vessel traffic and ballasting behaviours can aid managers in identifying research and biosecurity gaps. We provide a quantitative baseline assessment of commercial vessel activities in American Samoa between 2004 and 2021. Vessel traffic and ballast water data were downloaded from the National Ballast Information Clearinghouse and examined in R. Since reporting began, vessel arrivals in the territory gradually increased each year, reaching a peak of 229 vessels in 2017. Over a third of all arrivals are container ships. Although commercial vessels arrive from ports all over the world, most come from and remain in the South Pacific. Containers and tankers were responsible for most of the ballast water discharges in the territory. The use of alternative ballast water management systems began in 2015 and increased dramatically in the following years. Though American Samoa's vessel traffic patterns are similar with the United States as a whole, we highlight key differences in this small, yet important, South Pacific port. This article highlight the importance of assessments at individual ports to better inform biosecurity decisions with an emphasis on regional biosecurity measures and communication among the Pacific Islands.

Objective : Gamma Knife radiosurgery (GKRS) is an effective and noninvasive treatment for high-risk arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). Since differences in GKRS outcomes by nidus type are unknown, this study evaluated GKRS feasibility and safety in patients with brain AVMs.Methods : This single-center retrospective study included patients with AVM who underwent GKRS between 2008 and 2021. Patients were divided into compact- and diffuse-type groups according to nidus characteristics. We excluded patients who performed GKRS and did not follow-up evaluation with magnetic resonance imaging or digital subtraction angiography within 36 months from the study. We used univariate and multivariate analyses to characterize associations of nidus type with obliteration rate and GKRS-related complications.Results : We enrolled 154 patients (mean age, 32.14±17.17 years; mean post-GKRS follow-up, 52.10±33.67 months) of whom 131 (85.1%) had compact- and 23 (14.9%) diffuse-type nidus AVMs. Of all AVMs, 89 (57.8%) were unruptured, and 65 (42.2%) had ruptured. The mean Spetzler-Martin AVM grades were 2.03±0.95 and 3.39±1.23 for the compact- and diffuse-type groups, respectively (p<0.001). During the follow-up period, AVM-related hemorrhages occurred in four individuals (2.6%), three of whom had compact nidi. Substantial radiation-induced changes and cyst formation were observed in 21 (13.6%) and one patient (0.6%), respectively. The AVM complete obliteration rate was 46.1% across both groups. Post-GKRS complication and complete obliteration rates were not significantly different between nidus types. For diffuse-type nidus AVMs, larger AVM size and volume (p<0.001), lower radiation dose (p<0.001), eloquent area location (p=0.015), and higher Spetzler-Martin grade (p<0.001) were observed.Conclusion : GKRS is a safe and feasible treatment for brain AVMs characterized by both diffuse- and compact-type nidi.

Purpose: To investigate the relative risks (RRs) for dementia among individuals with glaucoma.Methods: We conducted a search of PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane databases for observational cohort studies examining the association between glaucoma and dementia until March 2023. Two authors independently screened all titles and abstracts according to predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Pooled RR and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were generated using random-effect models.Results: The meta-analysis included 18 cohort studies conducted in eight countries and involving 4,975,325 individuals. The pooled RR for the association between glaucoma and all-cause dementia was 1.314 (95% CI, 1.099–1.572; I2 = 95%). The pooled RRs for the associations of open-angle glaucoma with Alzheimer dementia and Parkinson disease were 1.287 (95% CI, 1.007–1.646; I2 = 96%) and 1.233 (95% CI, 0.677–2.243; I2 = 73%), respectively. The pooled RRs for the associations of angle-closure glaucoma with all-cause dementia and Alzheimer dementia were 0.978 (95% CI, 0.750–1.277; I2 = 17%) and 0.838 (95% CI, 0.421–1.669; I2 = 16%), respectively. No evidence of publication bias was detected in the Begg-Mazumdar adjusted rank correlation test (p = 0.47).Conclusions: Based on current observational cohort studies, there is evidence supporting that glaucoma is a risk factor for dementia in the adult population.

Humpback whales Megaptera novaeangliae typically fast for several months in low-latitude breeding areas. Here we report on persistent feeding events during 5 wintering seasons between 2013 and 2020 in a known upwelling region of Banderas Bay of the mainland Mexico breeding area. In total, there were 76 unique feeding events documented (group size = 1 to ~100 individuals), involving 201 photo-identified whales, of which 18 were documented feeding in multiple years. The most prolific years of documented feeding in 2017 and 2018 (based on number of reports/individuals photo-identified feeding) followed the strongest marine heatwave ever recorded in the North Pacific. Whales documented feeding in Banderas Bay had significantly shorter mean sighting histories (2.3 yr) than a non-feeding sample (8.7 yr) and were reported to be of small size, suggesting they were predominantly younger whales. Most high-latitude recaptures of Banderas Bay feeding whales were in more northern North Pacific feeding grounds (50.8% were resighted in Russia, Alaska, and northern British Colombia, Canada). A binomial general linear model revealed a significant relationship between the probability of whales feeding in Banderas Bay and sea surface temperature (SST). Specifically, feeding consistently occurred in years of lower than average winter SST (<25°C), associated with La Niña years of the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO). We conclude that feeding of humpback whales is now a predictable occurrence in the upwelling region of Banderas Bay in years that ENSO fluctuations lead to lower regional SST. The magnitude of several years of low-latitude feeding events reported here was likely influenced by climate change induced marine heatwaves that occurred during the study period.

Bivalves are ecosystem engineers, and their effective management relies on a full understanding of the mechanisms that influence population dynamics. Juvenile tuaki (New Zealand cockle) Austrovenus stutchburyi, a numerically dominant and ecologically important bivalve in New Zealand estuaries, were found at higher densities when surrounded by high densities of large adults within Waitati Inlet, in southern New Zealand. Consequently, we hypothesised that adults provided a refuge from predation for juveniles, resulting in higher juvenile survival and retention in dense beds. The observed pattern was consistent with post-settlement Allee effects, where declines in density and truncated size distributions may have resulted in unsuccessful recruitment if a density threshold was reached. Field experiments were undertaken in 2020 and 2021 to test the potential sheltering effect of adults on retention and survival of juveniles, with and without the addition of organic loading of sediments. Presence of adults had significant effects on juvenile retention and interaction with organic loading in 2020, but not in 2021. To isolate the effects of adult presence on predation of juveniles, a series of laboratory experiments were carried out using the predatory crab Ovalipes catharus. Juvenile survivorship from crab predation was enhanced in the presence of large adults, consistent with the hypothesised sheltering effect. Further, predation rates increased significantly from winter to summer, which correlated with increasing water temperatures and the breeding and moult cycle of crabs. These findings across surveys, field and laboratory manipulations have significant implications for effective fisheries management and restoration of bed-forming bivalves.
