Objectives: This study aims to assess the anthropogenic activities of fisherfolks in Capiz as well as their impacts on coastal areas, issues they face, and their knowledge and attitudes towards environmental preservation. Methods: This study utilized a mixed-method approach that combines qualitative and quantitative approaches. Recorded interviews were utilized to collect qualitative data in the form of one on one interviews and focus group discussions. A five-point scale questionnaire was used to measure the level of knowledge of the respondents towards the importance of coastal areas and their attitudes toward their preservation, maintenance, protection, and rehabilitation. Findings: Multiple anthropogenic activities were evaluated in the coastal municipalities of Capiz, which have both positive and negative impacts on the environment. On the positive side, they participate in coastal clean-up drives, mangrove planting, recycling and waste segregation, proper waste disposal, implementing closed seasons for fishing, the Basura Baylo Bugas program (a waste-for-rice exchange initiative), and sustainable shellfish collection. These activities contribute to environmental conservation and sustainable resource management. However, there are also harmful practices such as illegal fishing, mangrove cutting, over-collection or irresponsible shellfish collection, setting up multiple fishing gears, improper waste disposal, and irresponsible local tourism. Moreover, the fisherfolks within these coastal municipalities demonstrated a high level of knowledge regarding the importance of coastal areas. More than half of respondents, or 68.11 percent have a highly favorable attitude towards coastal conservation. Novelty: This study reveals the multiple anthropogenic activities in the coastal municipalities of Capiz. It uncovers the current status of the coastal communities in relation to the conservation of coastal areas.

¿Caperucita se come al lobo? Análisis psicosocial y psicoanalítico de las tensiones contemporáneas en las relaciones erótico-afectivas de las mujeres
Authors:   Universidad EAFIT, Espinal Ramírez Luisa Fernanda , Tamayo Uribe David Santiago ,   Institución Universitaria Politécnico Grancolombiano
Published: January 2025

A través del análisis de contenido del cuento Caperucita se come al lobo se buscó analizar las tensiones entre lo discursivo sociocultural y lo inconsciente que emergen en las experiencias erótico-afectivas de las mujeres. En la narrativa del texto se identificaron tres grandes categorías 1. El feminismo como código legitimador del actuar de las mujeres en la contemporaneidad, 2. La mujer joven representada como sexualmente activa, deseante y desvinculada afectivamente; y, 3. El deseo de amor como una expresión inconsciente que desafía los discursos colectivos haciendo de la experiencia erótico-afectiva una singular. Estas tres tendencias que emergieron en el análisis son interpretadas a la luz de las perspectivas psicoanalíticas y psicosociales que evidencian cómo en cada época se construyen discursos que orientan prácticas cotidianas a través de la construcción de ideales que, pese a su fuerza normativa, se hacen imposibles de encarnar debido al inconsciente.
Criminalizados sin crimen: actualización de la esclavitud y criminalización del negro en la contemporaneidad
Authors:   Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Teodoro de Lima Pablo Henrique
Published: January 2025

Considerando el creciente número de asesinatos de negros, muchos de ellos institucionalizados, y a partir de casos emblemáticos, nos proponemos interrogar el crimen y el criminal a la luz de la teoría psicoanalítica, así como el racismo estructural e histórico de países como Brasil y EE. UU. Cuestionamos si realmente hemos superado el racismo sistémico e indiscriminado del período esclavista brasileño, o si este racismo solo ha cambiado sus fundamentos, institucionalizándose y persiguiendo al negro como chivo expiatorio al que se autoriza el castigo legalizado, o como el mal encarnado y susceptible de padecer castigo. Sospechamos, por tanto, que un modo actual de esclavización parece permitirnos elegir al negro como criminal de nuestro inconsciente, para quien la muerte se permite, se justifica y hasta se hace necesaria, a fin de satisfacer el deseo de gozar por el sufrimiento ajeno, clasificando a esa parte de la sociedad como eliminable, ya que sostenemos un ideal de país que alimenta valores esclavistas y relega el mal social al negro.
Más allá del psicoanálisis interseccional: de la interseccionalidad a su explicación por la estructura
Authors:   Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolás de Hidalgo, Pavón Cuéllar David
Published: January 2025

El presente artículo aborda críticamente la reciente irrupción de la interseccionalidad en el campo psicoanalítico. Estableciéndose un paralelismo entre Marx y Freud, se muestra la sensibilidad interseccional de ambos, pero subrayando cómo uno y otro solo parten de la intersección para después explicarla por una estructura determinante: una estructura que se presenta ya en Marx como capitalista, colonial y patriarcal, pero que en Freud se revela como sobredeterminada por la historia de cada sujeto y por su configuración edípica. Se observa cómo este nivel estructural tiende a pasar desapercibido en el trabajo de Max Belkin y en otras propuestas actuales de psicoanálisis interseccional. Como alternativa, se recuerda el viejo psicoanálisis del mexicano de Santiago Ramírez y se reflexiona sobre las diversas formas en que la estructura podría producir la intersección. Esta reflexión permite reconsiderar la cuestión del aspecto colonial de la herencia freudiana en Latinoamérica.
Oversight, Accountability, or Influence? Understanding the Use of Monetary Dialogues in the European Parliament
Authors: Kreppel Amie , Tomasi Corinne
Published: January 2025

The Monetary Dialogue (MD) between the European Central Bank (ECB) and the European Parliament (EP) has received ample research that has offered an insightful discussion on the effectiveness of the dialogue as a forum for ECB accountability. However, most of the literature has focused on what the ECB is held accountable for or how the ECB engages in the dialogues. Key questions remain, however, regarding the goals and actions of the individual members of the European Parliament (MEPs) that this article seeks to address. First, we develop a theoretical framework that moves beyond a general concept of “accountability” and differentiates between accountability, oversight, and influence. By defining the concepts more precisely, our aim is to distinguish types of engagement and offer a comparative perspective to broaden the discussion of accountability forums. Second, our article contributes to a growing subset of literature on the MD that shifts the focus from what the ECB gets from the dialogues to how MEPs utilize the MD. To achieve this, we analyze and code MEP questions during the quarterly MD and investigate the impact that member state, national party, and EP political group affiliation have on the character of the questions asked by MEPs over time.
The ECB’s Evolving Mandate and High Independence: An Undemocratic Mix
Authors: Högenauer Anna-Lena , Mendes Joana
Published: January 2025

After over a decade of crisis, the ECB’s functions have expanded considerably. The ECB’s activities during the eurozone crisis, new debates on the ECB’s role in supporting political goals like the fight against climate change, and its participation in geopolitical stand-offs have overcome the fiction of a technocratic role that can be allocated to an independent institution with few constraints to democracy. We highlight how the ECB’s mandate has been (re)interpreted while eschewing the impact of this change on its independence. Drawing on the contributions to this thematic issue, we also argue that the limited legal and political accountability does not match the evolving mandate. In particular, we contrast the voluntary mechanisms of accountability created in the past years and the judicial endorsement of the expansion of the ECB’s mandate.
The Impact of Video Games with Aggressive Content on Emotional State: Review of Current Research
Authors: Ageev N.Ya. , Dubovik I.A.
Published: January 2025

The article is devoted to a review of modern research studying the impact of video games with aggressive content on the emotional state and behavior of players. It examines various theoretical approaches, including the General Aggression Model (GAM), the Catalyst Model and alternative theories describing the impact of aggressive content and media violence. Special attention is paid to the results of empirical studies indicating both positive and negative consequences of video games. Positive effects include reduced stress and improved emotional state, while negative effects include increased aggression, destructive behavioral manifestations and a decrease in empathy. A review of current research demonstrates that the impact of video games can vary significantly depending on the individual characteristics of players, their personal characteristics, the context of the gaming experience, the genre of video games and other factors. This makes the issue of the impact of aggressive content in video games extremely complex and multifaceted. The article emphasizes the need for further research in this area, including using a collegial and interdisciplinary approach to study the impact of aggressive video game content on the emotional and psychological state of players.
Incubation Processes in Solving Problems: Current State and Prospects of Research
Authors: Kuliev N.S.
Published: January 2025

The article provides an overview of the current state of research on incubation processes in solving problems. The main theoretical approaches to understanding the mechanisms of incubation, as well as methodological features and problems associated with the study of this phenomenon are considered. The shortcomings of existing research methods have been identified, including the lack of standardization in the definition of incubation, variations in experimental designs and differences in the interpretation of the duration of the incubation period. This triggers the need to create more universal methods for evaluating incubation effects. The study is novel in the analysis of existing knowledge about incubation, as well as in the assumption that there is a set of interrelated processes influencing the effectiveness of incubation intervention. We emphasize the need to integrate approaches to better understand incubation effects. This point of view helps to resolve the apparent inconsistency of various theoretical models and opens up new opportunities for studying incubation. Special attention is paid to the role of the incubation period in solving a wide range of problems, including creative, academic and professional tasks. Various types of incubation interventions and their impact on the effectiveness of problem solving are analyzed. Promising directions for further research in the field of incubation processes, as well as their practical applications, are outlined.

Authors: Naumov Denis G. , Tkach Sergey G. , Vishnevskiy Arkadiy A. , Aliev Aliev B. , Yablonskiy Piotr K.
Published: January 2025

Background. Chronic cervico-thoracic infectious spondylitis is an etiologically heterogeneous diseases group with vertebral destruction in the C6-Th3. There is no unified surgical strategy for such patients. The aim of the study was to examine the technical features and long-term results of surgical treatment of chronic infectious spondylitis of the cervico-thoracic spine and to systematize the literature data.
Materials and methods. The analyzed cohort of 18 operated patients. The follow-up results in 11 patients with chronic nonspecific and 7 with tuberculous spondylitis were evaluated. The complex of clinical and radiological parameters were studied.Results. Chronic infectious spondylitis in cohort was classified as types B.3 (n1 = 10), C.2 (n2 = 4), C.3 (n3 = 1) and C.4 (n4 = 3) according to Pola E et al. (2017). The mean age at the time of surgery was 48 years 3 months [20; 71]. The influence of etiology of chronic spondylitis on the prevalence of destructive process (F = 8.761, p = 0.009), on the intensity of back pain (F = 5.802, p = 0.028) was revealed. The analysis of quality of life indicates a greater degree of social maladaptation in tuberculous spondylitis both according to the NDI (p = 0.018) and SF-12 (p = 0.002).
Conclusions. Chronic infectious cervico-thoracic spondylitis is a rare and poorly studied pathology. The analysis of the information on this issue and the evaluation of our accumulated experience allowed us to propose a number of tactical tools for planning surgery.

Authors: S. Shanthi , Mendonca Theresa Leonilda
Published: January 2025

Background: Vaccination protects children from many diseases. However, it often causes anxiety and distress for them despite its benefits. This trial aims to assess the effect of acupressure (Li.4) and cold application on pain and physiological parameters in children getting intramuscular injections.
Methods: The study is designed as a randomized controlled trial with a crossover approach. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be randomly divided equally into two groups. Group I (85) and Group II (85). Using Sequentially Numbered Opaque Sealed Envelops (SNOSE), each infant will act as their own matched control. In the first sequence, group I will receive acupressure, and group 2 will receive cold application. In sequence 2, interventions will be switched. Pain level and infant distress will be measured using NIPS and infant distress scale respectively, physiological parameters, such as oxygen saturation and heat rate, will also be recorded using pulse oximeter.
Conclusions: Reducing vaccination pain helps prevent long-term negative effects on children’s health. Practitioners are responsible for managing pain during procedures using simple and cost effective and quick relief methods.

The Sailor's Model of Mental Development of Indonesian Navy's Second Fleet to Support the Main Duties of The Indonesian Navy
Authors: Suprayitno Paendri Dayu  , Agus Subianto  , Sudirman  , Sri Umiyati
Published: January 2025

The success of the Navy in carrying out the main task of national defense at sea is largely determined by the mentality of good soldiers (The man behind the gun) where the characteristics of the Navy are in line with high technology. So the ability of soldiers must always be fostered properly and correctly, one of which is through mental development, namely in the form of Bintal Komando Function. In the Decree of the TNI Commander No. Kep/940/XI/2017 dated November 21, 2017 concerning the Master Direction for Mental Development of the TNI Pinaka Baladika, it is stated that TNI mental development has a strategic role, task and function in the development of TNI capabilities and strength for resilient national defense. This research begins with the phenomenon that there are still many violations of discipline and law by unscrupulous soldiers (according to sources from Puspom TNI AL and Pomal Fleet II Surabaya). This research aims to analyze the implementation of mental coaching and the supporting and inhibiting factors in the command function's guidance and development carried out at Koarmada II Surabaya, then formulate the best model for the mental development of these soldiers. This research uses a qualitative methodology where primary data sources are conducted through interviews with officials at the Fleet II Command Headquarters and interviews with several soldiers. While secondary data is obtained from literature studies in the form of books, journals, magazines, reports and decrees. The analysis was conducted using the implementation theory of Van Meter and Van Horn (1983). In this study, it is found that the mental development of soldiers at the Fleet II Command Headquarters has not been maximally implemented due to several obstacles that must be faced in the field. The effort that must be taken is to inventory all the existing factors, then confronted with the chosen theory, then compile an appropriate model in the mental development of soldiers.

An automatic fermentation nutrition system compared to a traditional one: fermentation performances and composition of white wines
Authors: Pollon Matteo , Vitaggio Clara , Ghinolfi Fabrizio , Amato Filippo , Cinquanta Luciano , Corona Onofrio
Published: January 2025

The Avaferm® automatic yeast nutrition system was tested in comparison to manual nutrition management during the fermentation of white wines. To evaluate the two approaches, a factorial experimental design with interaction was established consisting of the two ways of nutrition (Avaferm® and Control) and two white grape varieties (Catarratto and Chardonnay). The experiments were conducted on an industrial scale, ensuring the practical relevance of the findings. The parameters that underwent evaluation encompassed a wide range of aspects, including the fermentation kinetics of sugars, the use of α-amino nitrogen and ammonium, as well as the technological and aromatic volatile composition of the wines.
To study the sugar consumption kinetics during fermentation, a new use of the 5-parameter logistic regression was applied to fit these compounds. The automatic nutrition showed a substantial similarity in the fermentative kinetics and in all cases, we have reached adequate sugar depletion (almost no residual fermentable sugars). Moreover, with regards to the composition of the wines, the two methods were found to be similar, although with a slightly higher concentration of residual YAN in the control nitrogen management. The wines obtained with Avaferm® showed a greater concentration in 3-oxo-α-ionol and a slightly lesser concentration in butanoic hexanoic, octanoic and decanoic acids as well as ethyl hexanoate, ethyl octanoate and ethyl decanoate. The variety factor as expected showed several differences, which can be explained by the chemical composition of the different grape musts.

Authors:   , Pure Flores Mirella Cinthya
Published: January 2025

Objetivo: Evaluar la resistencia de unión al microcizallamiento entre el cemento resinoso autoadhesivo y la resina de laboratorio con 4 tratamientos de superficie. Materiales y Métodos: Los discos de resina se asignaron aleatoriamente en 4 grupos (n=10): ST: sin tratamiento; A: arenada con partículas de óxido de aluminio de 50 μm; AS: A + silano (Prosil); AAU: A + adhesivo universal (Single Bond Universal). Se construyeron tres microcilindros de cemento resinoso autoadhesivo (Ø = 1 mm; altura = 2 mm) (Set PP) sobre la superficie de la resina de laboratorio. Se aplicó una carga de corte a la base del cilindro a una velocidad de cruceta de 1 mm/min, hasta que se produjo la falla; y se midieron los valores de la resistencia de unión al microcizallamiento. Los datos se analizaron estadísticamente mediante ANOVA de un factor y se complementó con la prueba de comparaciones múltiples de Tukey. Los patrones de falla se examinaron bajo microscopio estereoscópico.
Resultado: Los grupos AS (14,60 ± 0.57 MPa) y AAU (15,55 ± 1.70 MPa) obtuvieron los valores de fuerza de unión más altos. La diferencia entre el grupo ST y AAU (p < 0,05) fue estadísticamente significativa, mientras que no hubo diferencias considerables entre otros métodos de tratamiento. El grupo ST resultó en una menor fuerza de unión (13,48 ± 1,13 MPa). Conclusión: El grupo con tratamiento de arenado con óxido de aluminio y adhesivo universal, obtuvo mayor resistencia al microcizallamiento; por lo tanto, mayor fuerza de adhesión a la resina.

Published: January 2025

La investigación de campo de naturaleza correlacional se orientó hacia la evaluación de la vinculación entre el clima de seguridad y el clima laboral en los colaboradores de los mega centros de distribución de Arca Continental en Perú durante el año 2023. Por la fórmula de cálculo de muestras finitas, se determinó que una muestra de 101 trabajadores poseería representatividad estadística para la población de interés. Se optó por emplear el Test de Clima Laboral CL-RG y el Cuestionario Nórdico de Clima de Seguridad Ocupacional NOSACQ-50-Spanish-Perú (coastal) 2020 como instrumentos de medición. Se aplicó el test de Kolmogorov-Smirnov para evaluar la normalidad de la variable en análisis. La correlación de Spearman fue empleada como método de análisis de asociación. En los análisis realizados, se observaron correlaciones positivas entre el clima de seguridad y algunas dimensiones del clima laboral. Sin embargo, estas correlaciones fueron débiles y no alcanzaron significancia estadística. Por ejemplo, la correlación entre el clima de seguridad y la política organizacional fue de 0.043, indicando una relación positiva mínima, pero el valor p asociado fue de 0.663, por encima del umbral de significancia de 0.05. Asimismo, la comunicación mostró la correlación más alta, con 0.119, pero tampoco fue estadísticamente significativa (p = 0.231). Estos hallazgos sugieren una tendencia hacia la asociación positiva entre el clima de seguridad y ciertos aspectos del clima laboral, aunque no lo suficientemente fuerte como para ser considerada significativa en este contexto de estudio.
Data reconstruction from machine learning models via inverse estimation and Bayesian inference
Authors: Hartoyo Agus , Ciupek Dominika , Malawski Maciej , Crimi Alessandro
Published: January 2025

This study explores the task of data reconstruction from machine learning models via inverse estimation and Bayesian inference, with the goal of recovering the original dataset solely based on the trained model. We introduce a novel theoretical framework that investigates the factors affecting the data reconstruction quality. Specifically, we derive expressions that quantify how variations in key variables influence the divergence between true and estimated posteriors by examining the concurrent behavior of their partial derivatives with respect to independent variables. This derivative-based approach establishes theoretical correlations between the variables, demonstrating that the fidelity of the recovered data is governed by two primary factors: (1) the accuracy of the assumed prior, and (2) the accuracy of the machine learning model. Empirical results across multiple benchmark datasets and machine learning algorithms corroborate these theoretical predictions, reinforcing the validity and robustness of our theoretical framework. Practically, our data reconstruction method enables the creation of synthetic models that closely replicate the performance of the original models. This work contributes to advancing the theoretical understanding and practical techniques for data reconstruction and model introspection within the context of machine learning.
Natural Carbonation of Alkaline Industrial Wastes: A Large-Scale, Unaccounted Sink for CO2
Authors: Xi Fengming , Ma Mingjing , Liu Zhu , Davis Steven , Bing Longfei , Wang Jiaoyue , Niu Le , Liu Gang , Shao Anlin , Gu Wei
Published: January 2025

Achieving international climate goals will likely require large-scale removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere 1. A promising means of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) is by enhanced weathering and carbonation of various alkaline industrial wastes such as slags and ash 2,3. Although global potential of such enhanced weathering of alkaline industrial wastes has been estimated 4–7, the magnitude of carbon uptake by natural carbonation of these wastes worldwide remains uncertain. Here, using the results of more than a decade of carbonation experiments and an extensive dataset of global industrial activity and waste disposal, we show that annual global carbon uptake by natural carbonation of alkaline industrial wastes is 0.43 Gt CO2 (95% CI: 0.33–0.53 Gt CO2) in 2020, and has been increasing at an annual average rate of 2% per year for the past decade. Between 1930 and 2020, we estimate that alkaline industrial wastes have absorbed 14.0 Gt of CO2 (95% CI: 11.2–25.2 Gt CO2) by natural carbonation. Our results reveal the extent to which alkaline industrial wastes represent an unaccounted sink in the global carbon cycle, and also highlight opportunities for enhancing carbon uptake in the future.

Understanding how amyloid beta (Aβ) plaques form and progress to neurotoxicity in Alzheimer’s disease remains a significant challenge. This study aims to elucidate the processes involved in Aβ plaque formation and maturation using a knock-in Aβ mouse model (AppNL- F/NL-F). By employing mass spectrometry imaging and stable isotope labeling, we timestamped Aβ plaques from their initial deposition, enabling the spatial tracking of plaque aging. Correlating single-plaque spatial transcriptomics with time since seeding, allowed us to track gene-expression changes specifically associated with plaque age, independent of chronological age of the mouse or disease severity. We found that plaque age, within sections from individual mice aged from 10 to 18 months, negatively correlates with synaptic gene expression. Further, correlation with hyperspectral confocal microscopy using structure-specific dyes revealed a positive link between plaque age and structural maturity, with older plaques identified as more compact and associated with significantly greater synapse loss and toxicity.

Published: January 2025

Background: The use of social media is constantly increasing, but it also has several negative consequences, especially for young people.
Aim: To examine the relationship between social media addiction and mental health among Greek young adults.
Methods: We conducted an online cross-sectional study during July 2024 in Greece. We used the Bergen Social Media Addiction Scale (BSMAS) to measure levels of social media addiction in our participants. We used the Patient Health Questionnaire-4 (PHQ-4) to evaluate levels of anxiety and depression in our participants. We measured gender, age, the number of hours that participants usually sleep when next day they have to go for their work/class, and how sleepy they felt at work/class.
Results: The majority of our participants were females (83.1%, n=300), while 16.9% were males (n=61). Mean age was 23.3 years. Our correlation analysis showed that social media addiction was correlated with increased anxiety and depression (p-value < 0.01 in both cases). Moreover, reduced age and reduced duration of night sleep was associated with increased social media addiction (p-value < 0.01 in both cases). Additionally, social media addiction was correlated with increased sleepiness in work/class (p-value < 0.01).
Conclusions: We found a positive correlation between social media addiction, anxiety and depression among young adults in Greece. Moreover, we found that reduced age and reduced duration of night sleep was associated with increased social media addiction. Additionally, social media addiction was correlated with increased sleepiness in work/class. Therefore, social media addiction is an important issue among young adults and policy makers should develop appropriate interventions to reduce this phenomenon.

Published: January 2025

The paper analyzes the structure and overview of real estate object location in the non-core assets of the enterprises of the aircraft industry on the example of The United Aircraft Corporation (Russia). The study aims to identify the economic benefits in the management of non-core assets. In particular, some qualitative and quantitative features of the asset structure were determined. Using the cartographic method, a high concentration of assets in some regions of Russia was noted, which is visually represented in the form of geographical maps. In the context of identifying trends in the property complex management, the entire resource base of the Russian aircraft industry was assessed. Some of the trends were found to be related to geographical, historical peculiarities as well as to human resources. The data posted on the official website of United Aircraft Corporation PJSC were used for the study. The results and some conclusions of this work can further serve as a more detailed analysis of the composition of the aircraft industry assets. Moreover, in order to form a management strategy for the resource base in terms of excess non-core assets, it is possible to assess the dependence of the asset structure on the enterprise type and the volume of manufactured products, its cost as an indicator of qualitative characteristics, as well as to determine correlations and average sufficiency to cover the needs of civil and aerospace aviation.

Evapotranspiration is an integral part of the Earth system studies, but it is challenging to measure it on regional scales. One estimation technique is a terrestrial water budget, i.e., total precipitation minus the sum of evapotranspiration and net runoff equals the change in water storage. Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite gravity observations are now enabling the closure of this equation by providing information on the terrestrial water storage changes. The main objective of this study was to estimate human induced evapotranspiration (HET) using the water budget and Remote Sensing-Based Vegetation Interface Processes (VIP-RS) model. We compare VIP-RS model ET estimates with Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer satellite-based estimates in the intensively managed Lake Baikal basin. The GRACE-based ET (0,534–133,570 mm/yr.), considerably higher than VIP-RS ET (0–94,319 mm/yr.), agrees well with existing estimates found in the literature and indicates that human activities contribute to an increase in ET. The evaluated uncertainty of monthly precipitation, runoff, GRACE based terrestrial water storage, ET-GRACE, and VIP-RS is 1,56, 0,04, 1,3, 0,89, and 0,8 km3 month-1, respectively. The differences may be utilized as an indicator of water management impacts on ET. We argue that satellite-based ET should yield larger seasonal amplitudes in the lake basin due to the impacts of anthropogenic activities. To date, no such investigation has been available in the existing literature for the Lake Baikal basin. Therefore, the adopted approaches for HET and its result will be regarded as a new and honest contribution to the Lake Baikal basin.

The potato microbiome has a significant impact on plant growth and development. In order to affect this microbiome, agriculture can use various biopreparations on the basis of soil microorganisms. Being vulnerable to pathogens and drought, potato plants are particularly useful in the development of biopreparations. Special attention is given to Rhodococcus bacteria due to their ability to clean contaminated soil and stimulate plant growth. The present study was aimed at examining the effect of Rhodococcus qingshengii VKM Ac-2784D on bacteria isolated from potato endo- and rhizosphere. It is known that only a small fraction of microorganisms within the plant microbiome can be obtained in pure culture. Given these limitations, it was possible to isolate over 70 endophytic strains without the use of selective media and show that many of them are sensitive to the presence of a biopreparation component on the basis of Rhodococcus qingshengii VKM Ac-2784D. The metagenomic study indicates a change in the composition of the microbial community following treatment with the biopreparation. The experiments also show that the bacteria remain sensitive to Rhodococcus even in the presence of other competing strains. In general, the study results indicate a modulating effect of the biopreparation on the potato microbiome without phytotoxicity. The findings are important for understanding the effect of the biopreparation on the microbial composition of soil and potato plants, as well as for developing effective strategies for the use of microorganisms in agriculture.
Planterosomal Gel designed by different Polyherbal Herbs: A Novel Method for Skin Healing

Skin healing is complex and involves a wide range of cellular and molecular interactions. Because they include a wide variety of bioactive components, traditional herbal treatments have long been acknowledged for their ability to aid in the healing of wounds. In this work, we present a unique method of creating a planterosomal gel to utilize the medicinal qualities of polyherbal plants. Plant extract-derived planterosomes provide a viable platform for improving herbal medicines’ bioavailability and therapeutic effectiveness. Our goal was to develop a formulation that would enable the targeted delivery of bioactive ingredients to the site of damage and prolonged release of those constituents by encasing a synergistic combination of polyherbal extracts inside a gel matrix. Medicinal plants that are well-known for their ability to cure wounds were extracted for the formulation process. These herbs include Centella Asiatica, Calendula officinalis, and Aloe vera. After that, a specific method was used to encapsulate these herbal extracts into planterosomes, maintaining their stability and bioactivity. The effective encapsulation of herbal extracts within the planterosomal framework, with a homogeneous particle size distribution and desired physicochemical characteristics, was validated by characterization tests. Moreover, investigations conducted in vitro showed sustained release kinetics, suggesting the possibility of long-lasting therapeutic benefits. Animal models with skin wounds were used in in vivo research to assess the planterosomal gel’s effectiveness. Improved collagen deposition, decreased inflammation, and increased re-epithelialization showed that the polyherbal planterosomal gel treatment greatly sped up the healing process as compared to control groups. Using a combination of controlled release and targeted administration methods, this formulation maximizes the benefits of many herbal constituents working together to provide a potentially effective treatment for a range of dermatological diseases and wound care applications. The therapeutic effectiveness and safety of this novel formulation in human patients should be investigated further.

To address the challenges of delayed control responses and suboptimal performance due to the absence of predictive capabilities for pre-power chain speed fluctuations in the electromechanical composite transmission system of armored vehicles, a transient fluctuation prediction and control method based on the Least Squares Support Vector Machine (LSSVM) is proposed for the engine-generator set within the system. This approach leverages real-world generator data collected from actual vehicles as the training dataset to establish a data-driven model. A specific LSSVM training model is developed, with experimental data serving as the test set. Within the model's predictive framework, transient fluctuations of critical engine-generator parameters are generated in real-time under test conditions. Simulations are conducted on a test platform for the electromechanical composite transmission system, evaluating both single-generator operation and a variety of driving conditions. Comparative analysis is performed to assess the operational factors influencing system performance under single and multiple conditions, as well as the control effects of transient power chain fluctuation prediction. Under multiple-condition scenarios, the system demonstrates faster dynamic recovery in response to significant load disturbances, with voltage peak fluctuations remaining within 5 %, which meets engineering application standards. This validates the model's adaptability and generalization capability for broader use cases.
Feature extraction of rolling bearing based on adaptive variational multi-harmonic mode extraction
Authors: Wang Zhenhu , Liu Chaozhong
Published: January 2025

Variable multi-harmonic mode extraction (VMHME) not only has the advantages of high computational efficiency and extraction accuracy similar to variational mode extraction (VME), but also could extract the multi-harmonic components of periodic narrowband impulse signals in frequency band as wide as possible, making it very suitable for feature extraction in the event of rolling bearing failure. VMHME needs to accurately estimate the fault characteristic frequency of rolling bearing as its prior parameter, and small errors in estimating the fault characteristic frequency will cause significant deviations in the target extraction components. At present, the theoretical fault characteristic frequency of rolling bearings is commonly used as the estimated fault characteristic frequency. However, due to the installation deformation of rolling bearings and the random sliding between the rolling elements and the raceway during operation, it can cause a deviation between the actual fault characteristic frequency and the theoretical fault characteristic frequency. The most scientific and effective method is to enable VMHME to adaptively obtain the fault characteristic frequency based on the characteristics of the analyzed signal itself. Therefore, this paper introduces the envelope harmonic product spectrum (EHPS) theory into VMHME and proposes an adaptive VMHME (AVMHME) method to effectively extract the multi harmonic components of the periodic narrowband impulse signal when rolling bearings fail. Feasibility of the proposed method is verified through simulation and rolling bearing’ early weak fault experiment, and its superiority is also verified through comparative analysis.
