Pathogenic genes and clinical prognosis in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Authors: Hong Ying , Xi Hu-Tao , Yang Xin-Yi , Su Wilber W , Li Xiao-Ping
Published: January 2025

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an autosomal dominant inherited cardiomyopathy characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy. It is one of the chief causes of sudden cardiac death in younger people and athletes. Molecular-genetic studies have confirmed that the vast majority of HCM is caused by mutations in genes encoding sarcomere proteins. HCM has a relatively wide phenotypic heterogeneity, varying from asymptomatic to sudden cardiac death, because of the many different mutations and pathogenic genes underlying it. Many studies have explored the clinical symptoms and prognosis of HCM, emphasizing the importance of genotype in evaluating patient prognosis and guiding the clinical management of HCM. To elaborate the main pathogenic genes and phenotypic prognosis in HCM to promote a better understanding of this genetic disease. Retrospective analysis of literature to evaluate the association between underlying gene mutations and clinical phenotypes in HCM patients. As sequencing technology advances, the pathogenic gene mutation spectrum and phenotypic characteristics of HCM are gradually becoming clearer. HCM is a widespread inherited disease with a highly variable clinical phenotype. The precise mechanisms linking known pathogenic gene mutations and the clinical course of this heterogeneous condition remain elusive.

Historyczność akt spółdzielni na przykładzie Kujawskiej Spółdzielni Mieszkaniowej w Inowrocławiu
Authors: Kolczyński Jakub
Published: January 2025

Historyczność dokumentacji spółdzielni można rozpatrywać w aspekcie dokumentacji historycznej powstałej przed 1945 r. oraz dokumentacji, która w przyszłości może mieć walor historyczny, tj.: akta organów kolegialnych, dokumentacja techniczna czy dokumentacja zdjęciowa, także w ramach kronik. Kujawska Spółdzielnia Mieszkaniowa powstała z połączenia kilku spółdzielni, a swoimi korzeniami sięga spółdzielni mieszkaniowej „Zagroda” powstałej na bazie niemieckiej Gartenstadt Genossenschaft Hohensalza (Spółdzielni Miasta Ogrodów). Z zachowanych protokólarzy organów kolegialnych czerpiemy podstawową wiedzę na temat funkcjonowania spółdzielni i rozwoju miasta. W Archiwum KSM znajduje się również dokumentacja techniczna powstała podczas budowy osiedli oraz dokumentacja przygotowania inwestycji. Przykładem akt historycznych jest dokumentacja techniczna z 1912 r. – sześć rzutów budynku przy ul. Sienkiewicza 23 przekazana do Archiwum Państwowego w Bydgoszczy Oddział w Inowrocławiu. Dokumentacja fotograficzna to mzdjęcia z budowy osiedli oraz zdjęcia z działalności klubów osiedlowych, także w ramach kronik spółdzielczych przedstawiających historię w skali mikro – rozwój osiedli i życie mieszkańców miasta na przestrzeni lat.
Mapping of great erosion in cities of Kinshasa and Brazzaville, Equatorial Africa
Authors: Bueno Francisco Alyson
Published: January 2025

Since the 1980s, gullies have been a problem for the cities of Kinshasa and Brazzaville, whose research presents the case of 3 gullies located in the Congo River Basin in urban and peri-urban areas. The objective of the research was to present a digital model of elevation of urban gullies, with topographic data used in engineering projects for future recovery. The acquisition of topographic data was carried out through the Google Earth Pro software and the QGIS geographic information system, with data processing for visualization in the Golden Surfer software. The Laloux gully located in Kinshasa is one of the largest in the world, with a length of 1,100 m and a 3-way format. The mouth of the city of Brazzaville has a width of less than 40 m, but is more than 900 m long, in a densely populated area. The Buma gully in Kinshasa is an example of the development of the erosive process in a peri-urban area, with the expansion of one of the largest cities on the African continent, being induced by the existence of a road on a slope.

La objeción de conciencia para la guerra en Francisco de Vitoria
Authors: García Cuadrado José Ángel
Published: January 2025

Francisco de Vitoria en sus comentarios a la Summa Theologiae y en la Relectio de bello admite que un simple ciudadano tiene la posibilidad (incluso la obligación) de no combatir en una guerra que él, en conciencia, considera injusta. Aunque no tiene obligación de examinar por sí mismo las causas de la guerra, no puede dejar de obrar en conciencia. Lo contrario a como actúan, por ejemplo, los mercenarios, siempre dispuestos a combatir en cualquier guerra, sea justa o no. Sería un precedente de la objeción de conciencia; pero no a combatir en cualquier guerra, sino en “esta guerra” en particular. No obstante, en caso de duda, un simple ciudadano podría combatir obedeciendo a su príncipe, fiado de la rectitud de intención del gobernante.
Del simulacro antihumanista al hombre verdadero. Un asunto de conversión
Authors: Capelari Luis Gabriel
Published: January 2025

La filosofía del siglo XX ha intentado pensar la figura de la alteridad y el justo respeto de las diferencias, acicateada por las experiencias históricas contemporáneas que violentaron al individuo y a su libertad. Sin embargo, la radicalización y exaltación de la otredad es correlativa a la disolución de la creencia en la naturaleza humana, trasmutada en “efecto” de procesos históricos. Bajo esta concepción, el hombre resulta ser un triste artificio. Esto ha sido impulsado por el pensamiento antihumanista y se ha manifestado en el ámbito cultural occidental -como es el caso de la ideología de género- socavando la identidad ontológica del ser humano.
Ante este panorama se analiza, en primer lugar, la sospecha hacia la verdad, el nihilismo y el relativismo, reunidos en la defensa deleuzeana de los “simulacros”, y la propuesta de vivir en la inmanencia radical, exaltando su potencialidad liberadora. En segundo lugar, frente a tal pensamiento desolador, se propone retomar los senderos de la búsqueda de una real felicidad dadora de sentido, afincada en fundamentos filosóficos realistas. Para ello será fundamental rescatar una filosofía de los valores y las virtudes, en apertura humilde a la verdad y al bien como vía de salida del subjetivismo; lo que implica una conversión espiritual.
¿Es lícito usar del arte mágico? Intento de solución a una pregunta no respondida de Francisco de Vitoria
Authors: Prieto Lucas Pablo
Published: January 2025

En el presente artículo se analiza la última relección teológica de Francisco de Vitoria dedicada al problema de la magia. Vitoria se pregunta por la licitud del uso del arte mágico, diferenciando entre magia natural, que se basa en causas naturales (desconocidas para la mayor parte de la gente) y magia preternatural, que implica la intervención de agentes espirituales. Vitoria acepta la existencia de ambos tipos, pero considera que la magia preternatural es moralmente ilícita, ya que busca manipular o controlar lo que está más allá de la capacidad natural humana, atentando contra la virtud de la religión. El estudio se centra en la relación entre causalidad, religión y moralidad en el contexto de la magia.
Derrida: un pensador (judío sefardí) de ‘parole vive’, en los márgenes de la filosofía
Authors: Tejeda Barros Antonia
Published: January 2025

Derrida es un pensador judío sefardí que cuestiona sistemáticamente las obras literarias, filosóficas, artísticas y políticas (desmenuzando y deconstruyendo), y cuya obra se mueve entre los márgenes de la filosofía. Conocido como el defensor de la escritura, Derrida es, en el fondo, un pensador de ‘parole vive’ que reconoce que la escritura deja a la palabra inmóvil. En el presente artículo saco a luz la cultura judía sefardí de Derrida (que a menudo se desconoce o se pasa por alto), muestro que Derrida denunció (aunque tímidamente) el antisemitismo en su diálogo con Élisabeth Roudinesco y sostengo que la famosa inversión derridiana escritura–palabra oral (su crítica al fonocentrismo) podría ser menos profunda de lo que se cree (más compleja, con sutiles matices, pequeñas contradicciones y marcada de tensiones), puesto que Derrida confiesa que la imagen de Sócrates y Platón descubierta en un envoi de La carte postale podría ser una equivocación, confiesa en una carta a Gadamer que él es un hombre de ‘parole vive’ y elogia los encuentros con Gadamer en Béliers. Le dialogue ininterrompu: entre deux infinis, le poème.
BuddhistRoad Paper 3.3 "Buddha and Śākyamuni in Chinese Manichaean Scriptures"
Authors: Kósa Gábor
Published: January 2025

During his missionary journeys beginning around ca. 240, Mani (ca. 216–276/277), the founder of Manichaeism, visited regions where Buddhism had already been present, and thus he may have become familiar with certain Buddhist concepts. Mani’s disciple, Mār Ammō (fl. 3rd c.) and subsequent generations of missionaries in Central Asia and China sought to accommodate the Manichaean message to the local Buddhist environment. This feature, to varying extent, characterised Parthian, Sogdian, Uyghur, and Chinese texts. In this paper, I focus on two fundamental terms, buddha and Śākyamuni, to show how they are used in early and later Manichaean sources.

WORKPLACE EXPERIENCE ON QUALITY EDUCATION IN TVET INSTITUTIONS
Authors: Kipngetich Kogo Wilson , Kapkiai Moses , Sammy Chumba
Published: January 2025

Baseline surveys from different countries have found out that there is a weak connectivity between theory and practice in the labour market, which is attributed to the lack of industry involvement in TVET academic programmes. Due to the inability of TVET institutions in the North Rift Region, Kenya to produce workforce with hands-on skills, there was a need for research on training approaches on integration of competency-based education. The purpose of this study was to establish the extent to which workplace experience learning has been integrated in TVET institutions. The study adopted the Diffusion of Innovation Theory. The study utilized the descriptive survey research design. The study targeted 6 principals, 6 industrial liaison officers, 1092 trainers, 18 industry supervisors and 22600 trainees. The sample size was 700 respondents comprising of 6 principals, 6 industrial liaison officers, 293 trainers, 18 industry supervisors and 377 trainees. A purposive sampling technique was used to select principals, industrial liaison officers and industry supervisors. Stratified random sampling and simple random sampling techniques were used to select trainers and trainees from various TVET institutions. The data were collected using questionnaires, interview schedules and document analysis. The instruments were piloted in one of the TVET institutions in the South Rift region of Kenya. Cronbach Alpha coefficient was used to test the reliability of instruments. The quantitative data was analyzed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. Descriptive statistics comprised of frequencies, percentages, means and standard deviation. Inferential statistics involved correlation and multiple regression analysis. Qualitative data were analyzed using thematic method. The study findings revealed that workplace experience (r = .638, p < 0.001) in TVET institutions. The study findings revealed that there was positive linear effect of workplace experience (β3 = .273, p = 0.000) on quality education. The study concluded that. There were inadequate workshops thus hampering trainees from regularly participating in practical aspects of CBET instruction. Lower academic requirements set for recruitment into the TVET programs were creating a negative attitude and perception that CBET was for low achievers. The study recommended that trainers need to understand the market trends.

A Photovoltaic Emulator (PVE) is a dedicated instrument engineered to emulate a solar panel's static and dynamic attributes. Its critical function lies in the examination and validation of PV systems by offering a regulated setting despite the erratic shifts in real-world scenarios. The photovoltaic emulator (PVE) comprises two principal constituents - the reference photovoltaic model which serves as the benchmark, and the electronics power controller intrinsic to the PVE itself. The intrinsic simplicity of these two primary elements is imperative for facilitating user-friendly operation. The present study propounds a novel photovoltaic emulator explicitly designed to streamline the deployment and incorporation of a photovoltaic model. The overarching PVE system is predicated on current regulation via a DC-DC buck power-electronic converter and a fundamental proportional-integral (PI) controller. A juxtaposition of the output current and voltage (I-V) characteristics exhibited by the photovoltaic emulator (PVE) and those of the SCHOTT POLY 210 photovoltaic module elucidates that the (I-V) characteristics of the PVE evince congruency and precision, even when subjected to variances in solar irradiance and ambient temperature conditions. This finding underscores the robust performance of the photovoltaic emulator across a diverse spectrum of environmental parameters.

Trunk Mobile charging stations (TMCS) have garnered significant attention domestically and internationally due to their excellent mobility and flexible scheduling capabilities. However, their potential application value has not been fully explored. This paper proposes a two-stage collaborative optimization scheduling strategy for TMCS to coordinate their operation in providing charging services for electric vehicles (EVs) and engaging in energy arbitrage with the power grid. In the day-ahead optimization phase, the growth curve function simulates the future development trend of EVs, and a stochastic optimization method determines the collaborative operation plan of TMCS. In the real-time scheduling phase, the chance-constrained method adjusts and updates the TMCS schedule based on real-time traffic and power operation data, resulting in an optimized TMCS scheduling outcome considering short-term uncertainty. Case analysis shows that the proposed method effectively addresses the impact of long- and short-term uncertainties on the TMCS scheduling plan, ensuring the quality of charging services while guaranteeing the profitability of charging facility operators.

The global telemedicine technology (TMT) regulatory landscape is currently evolving in a number of ways. The goal is to carry out an analytical examination of the institutional and legal frameworks for medical treatment including telemedicine consultation (TMC) in Russian Federation and foreign countries. The regulatory legal regulation of 22 international healthcare systems was included in the final version of the review. The review’s findings allow for the identification of the most important organizational and legal facets of delivering healthcare via TMC abroad: the majority of foreign nations lack comprehensive legal regulations governing the use of TMT in healthcare; the ability to establish a diagnosis within the context of TMC only follows an initial in-person consultation with a doctor; conducting TMC exclusively by licensed medical professionals and medical organizations; the option to conduct TMC via government-designed platforms and publicly accessible information platforms; requiring the patient to be informed about the benefits and drawbacks of TMT prior to consultation and to provide written or verbal informed consent; and requiring adherence to standards and recommendations during TMC, application, and in-person admission of the patient. The analysis demonstrates how commonplace TMC is abroad. However, there are currently no well-defined organizational or regulatory requirements for the use of TMC in the delivery of medical care, which calls for additional research into global experience and the identification of best practices that may be expanded throughout the Russian Federation.

Transfer Learning-Based Convolutional Neural Network for Six - Class Lung Disease Classification
Authors: M.V.S. Sairam  , Raju Egala
Published: January 2025

Convolutional neural network (CNN)-based deep learning (DL) is a promising solution in several applications, such as image classification and computer vision. Further, transfer learning-based CNN (TL-CNN) supports objective-specific applications, which can be achieved by integrating a pre-trained model such as Visual Geometry Group19 (VGG19) with a customized network. In the present work, convolution layers, ReLU functions, and pooling layers in the customized network are strategically chosen to classify six-class lung diseases: pneumonia, cardiomegaly, lung opacity, tuberculosis (TB), COVID-19, and normal. Also, the hyper parameters are optimized to refine the extended-VGG19 architecture (VGG19+customized network) in TL-CNN. The TL-CNN was built using Kaggle dataset of 3802 chest X-ray (CXR) images. Testing was conducted to evaluate the created TL-CNN, and the findings confirm that the proposed work outperformed existing models with 93.85% accuracy, 94.04% precision, 93.85% recall, 93.82% F1 score, and 99.56% area under the curve (AUC). Moreover, the confusion matrix of the TL-CNN is also discussed to access the distinguishability of the proposed multiclass classification.
L'evoluzione del framework IFRS9 alla luce delle nuove sfide di contesto
Authors:   University of Bologna (Italy), Torluccio Giuseppe , Palliola Paolo ,   Credit Agricole
Published: January 2025

Nel dicembre 2021, AIFIRM pubblica il 32° position paper dal titolo IFRS 9 e le sfide di contesto allo scopo di fornire un supporto e linee guida regolamentari sulle misure di sostegno e sui cambiamenti nella gestione del rischio di credito durante la pandemia.
Conformemente con quanto previsto dal principio IFRS 9, entrato in vigore nel 2018, gli intermediari finanziari devono anticipare perdite potenziali sui portafogli creditizi (c.d. expected credit loss, ECL) in coerenza con il ciclo economico corrente in modo da considerare gli elementi prospettici disponibili (c.d. forward-looking) al fine di evitare l’effetto too little too late. La valutazione prospettica delle perdite rappresenta la risposta fondamentale per superare i limiti del defunto principio contabile IAS 39 e adattarsi ad una crescente complessità del rischio di credito. Tuttavia, ad oggi, rappresenta ancora una sfida per le istituzioni finanziarie. Sebbene l’IFRS 9 stabilisca un quadro per determinare l'importo delle ECL che devono essere riconosciute laddove
vi sia un significativo aumento del rischio di credito (c.d. significant increase in credit
risk, SICR), non stabilisce, tuttavia, i limiti precisi su come e quando tali perdite debbano
essere riconosciute. Non impone, altresì, la base esatta su cui gli enti devono determinare gli scenari prospettici da considerare quando stimano le ECL, lasciando facoltà di poter adattare l’approccio in base alle mutevoli circostanze. Così facendo, come dimostrato dal monitoring report dell’EBA (IFRS 9 Implementation by EU Institutions, 2023), l'ampio margine di giudizio incorporato nei principi dell'IFRS 9 ha portato le istituzioni ad adottare approcci piuttosto diversi per la stima delle ECL.

Data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation involving mentors, organization administrators, and pesantren leaders. The findings reveal that the success of student organization management is influenced by four key factors. First, the quality of human resources selected through a competency-based process emphasizing spiritual, academic, and managerial capabilities. Second, a supportive organizational environment, such as regular motivation and the freedom to develop new ideas. Third, strong collaboration among organization members facilitated by effective communication. Fourth, leadership that fosters synergy and shared values within the organization. The implications of this study indicate that effective student organization management requires a combination of qualified administrator selection, the creation of a conducive working environment, and synergy among organization members. These findings contribute to the development of student organization management strategies in pesantren and serve as a reference for other Islamic educational institutions in enhancing the effectiveness of student organizations.

El Huanglongbing, causado por Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (CLas), es una de las enfermedades más destructivas de los cítricos, afectando gravemente la producción de limón Persa. Este estudio se enfocó en evaluar el impacto de diferentes tratamientos nutricionales en la inducción floral y vegetativa de árboles infectados con CLas. El experimento se realizó en un huerto en San Rafael, Veracruz, México, con árboles jóvenes enfermos con HLB. El diseño experimental consistió en bloques al azar generalizado, cuatro bloques donde cada uno cuatro tratamientos con cinco repeticiones los cuales consistieron en T1 y T3 en dosis balanceadas de N-P-K-Mg-S-Ca (T1=190- 56-147-10-60-102; T3=225-68-222-20-90-119). El T2 (testigo regional) consistió en N-P-K (180- 50-150) y T4 (testigo absoluto) sin aplicación. Los análisis estadísticos indicaron que los árboles tratados con una nutrición balanceada presentaron una mayor brotación vegetativa y floral, así como un incremento en el número de frutos en madurez de cosecha. Estos hallazgos sugieren que una estrategia de manejo que incluya una adecuada nutrición puede ayudar a reducir los efectos negativos del HLB y mejorar la productividad de los árboles infectados.

Ukrainian Labour Migration to Europe During the War: A Review of Current Realities

International migration plays an important role in shaping the global economy, serving as both a source of financial resources for countries and a means of balancing demographic and labour disparities across nations. Labour migration, in particular, is integral to the redistribution of labour and capital, influenced by varying levels of economic development, natural resource availability, and technological progress. While globalisation has facilitated the movement of people and strengthened international cooperation, migration patterns are significantly affected by military conflicts. The ongoing war in Ukraine has intensified these dynamics, prompting a significant outflow of Ukrainian labour to Europe. This review explores the economic, social, and demographic impacts of this migration, analysing its effects on host countries and the complex challenges it poses for Ukraine, particularly regarding demographic stability and post-war reconstruction.

This reflective piece explores the formative years of the Institute for International Studies (IIS) at the University of Technology Sydney, considering its approach to global education and immersive learning. Through a critical reflection on the cultural and social context of early 2000s Australia, I recall the collaborative and experimental pedagogies that shaped both students and faculty. By embracing cultural difference, contextualisation, and student-centered inquiry, IIS cultivated a unique educational environment that encouraged exploration beyond conventional academic borders, ultimately laying the foundation for reimagining International Studies in a transformative way.
The Global Classroom in Action: Thirty Years of International Studies at the University of Technology Sydney
Authors: Allatson Paul
Published: January 2025

2024 marks a significant milestone for the Bachelor of Arts in International Studies (BAIS) and its successor, the Bachelor of International Studies (BIS), at the University of Technology Sydney (UTS): 30 years of pioneering global education and the fostering of international and transcultural understanding. To commemorate this anniversary in this issue of Portal: Journal of Multidisciplinary International Studies, a selection of academic staff, past and present, who have contributed to the program, share their memories and insights through short essays and reflective pieces. This initiative seeks to honour the diverse experiences and pedagogical innovations that have shaped the program’s success over the decades. It also aims to explain the inevitable evolution of international studies at UTS in the wake of the global pandemic whose associated travel restrictions forced a rethink of how UTS might better deliver international studies with an array of new “internationalised/ising” experiences some of which start right here, where we are now.
Estudio comparativo sobre la posición de la Organización de la Unidad Africana sobre los procesos de descolonización en las islas Canarias, Madeira y Cabo Verde (1963-1981)
Authors: Arconada Ledesma Pablo , García Andrés César
Published: January 2025

La Organización de la Unidad Africana (OUA) mantuvo, desde su fundación el 25 de mayo de 1963, una posición inamovible respecto a la descolonización de los territorios africanos. El objetivo de este estudio se centra en analizar la posición de esta institución respecto a tres regiones insulares: las islas Canarias, territorio dominado por España, las Islas de Cabo Verde, ocupadas por Portugal hasta 1974 y Madeira, actual región portuguesa. En el caso del primero y el tercero, la OUA, tras un largo proceso de negociación, decidió no apoyar la autodeterminación, mientras que en el caso de Cabo Verde la posición no varió. Por tanto, en este estudio analizamos las causas y motivaciones que llevaron al foro africano a tomar una decisión divergente en territorios ciertamente próximos. Para ello se realizará una revisión de la bibliografía y se recurrirá a fuentes primarias como documentos oficiales de instituciones internacionales (actas y resoluciones de la ONU y la OUA).
