Published: February 2024

In today's world, social media has become one of the most accessible sources of news for people worldwide due to its low cost, easy accessibility, and rapid dissemination. However, the harmful effects of fake news on individuals and society have been evident for a long time. Despite the challenges in detecting false information, numerous scholars are working to understand the issue and its characteristics.
 The purpose of this paper is to analyze contemporary frameworks that make use of different machine learning techniques in order to further our understanding of false news identification. The efficiency of these frameworks in recognizing and halting the spread of false information may be compared by examining various methods. A particular technique was used in the review process to provide a thorough and instructive assessment.
Even though a lot of research has been done to identify false news, more can be done in the future. These studies have many limitations such as biased data, adaptability, credibility analysis and the news is only categorized as legitimate or unauthentic by their solutions. Nevertheless, a system of ratings or scores to assess the reliability of news is necessary for a workable approach.

Published: February 2024

The purpose of this research is to determine the impacts of wastewater effluents on groundwater quality of the northern su­­burbs of Sana’a city. Fourteen duplicate groundwater and wastewater samples were collected from the study area and analyzed. The groundwater samples were analyzed for major elements, and anionic and cationic groups using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). The wastewater samples were analyzed for Total Coliform (TC), Fecal Coliform (FC), and oxygen demands. For characterizing the groundwater and wastewater qualities of the study area, analysis results were tabulated, statistically treated, and elements and ionic groups were graphically plotted on diagrams and on the Piper well known diagram. The analysis results had shown that some groundwater samples were chemically and biologically contaminated. Moreover, the effluent wastewater samples had shown that all samples contain greater Fecal Coliform (FC) bacteria count and high ammonia content. In addition, the effluent wastewaters are featured with high COD and BOD, reflecting low quality wastewater effluent for the WWTP. Sludge and wastewaters used by farmers, containing high pathogens and parasites, have created or will create significant environmental and health hazards. Similarly, land resources, infrastructure and groundwater quality of the areas are highly, if not already, jeopardized or polluted. Such findings require further detailed studies for monitoring development of pollution in the area.

Authors: Al-Harethi Amira , Abdullah Qais Y. , Al-Jobory Hala J.
Published: February 2024

Phytophthora infestans is a pathogen that causes late blight in crops, such as potatoes and tomatoes, posing a serious threat to the Solanaceae family. Researchers have attempted to create an affordable and effective medium for isolating and cultivating this pathogen. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of low-cost V-8 agar for mycelial growth, sporangia production, and oospore production of P. infestans and compare it with Rye A medium. To achieve this, V-8 medium was modified by replacing V-8 juice with tomato. Mycelial growth and sporulation were measured on both media after 14 days of inoculation. It was observed as a white, fluffy growth in both media. The mean radial growth was larger on the low-cost V-8 medium (76 mm) than on Rye A medium (4.4 mm). The lemon-shaped sporangia with a semipapilated structure were recorded with an average length-to-width ratio of 28.6 μm to 30.6 μm, respectively. Oospore production was greater in the low-cost V-8 medium (5x104) than in Rye A medium (1x104). The present study demonstrated that low-cost, locally available materials such as tomato can be used as an alternative nutrient medium for the growth of P. infestans.

Published: February 2024

Khat chewing has spread widely among women in Yemeni society. This modifiable lifestyle may increase the level of inflammatory markers and advanced glycation end productions (AGE, s). Limited data are available. There is limited data on the impact of khat chewing on inflammatory markers and AGE, s. Therefore, this project aimed to study the effect of khat chewing on inflammatory markers and AGE, s in Yemeni females. One hundred and eighty Yemeni females signed the consent form and donated blood 60 of them were non-khat chewers (control group), and 120 were daily khat chewers. The levels of high-sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP) and interleukin were higher in khat chewers than in non-Khat chewers. There were no differences in total white blood cells, neutrophils, and lymphocytes between khat chewer and non-Khat chewer females. The levels of (AGEs) were similar between khat chewers and non-khat chewers females (P=0.612). Analysis of covariantcet (ANCOVA) showed that khat chewing increased hs-CRP and interleukin-6 levels among khat chewers (p < 0.005; p < 0.034) compared to non-khat chewer. In conclusion, khat chewing increased hs-CRP, a cardiovascular risk prediction factor, and interleukin-6, which is associated with obesity, insulin resistance, and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Therefore, women with continuous khat chewing are at a high risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and T2DM.
Regulatory Needs for Radiation Protection Devices based upon Artiﬁcial Intelligence
Authors: Garni Stefanie Nicole , Mertineit Nando , Nöldge Gerd , Daneshvar Keivan , Mosler Frank
Published: February 2024

Artiﬁcial intelligence (AI) is increasingly employed in radiation protection, encompassing both medical devices and software. These technologies are integrated with AI throughout their manufacturing and application processes. This article underscores the imperative for comprehensive regulation in the utilization of AI. Decisions regarding AI application should not solely rest with manufacturers, medical professionals, or patients. Instead, an overarching "neutral" authority must be engaged to regulate, review, and enforce adherence to established protocols. The authors contend that relying on "self-regulation" within the free market, absent clear guidelines, proves to be inadequately eﬀective and leads to patient's radiation protection safety issues.
Piracy? What Piracy?
Authors: Mosler Frank
Published: February 2024

In discussing piracy herein, the reference is not to historical maritime raiders bestowed with titles by the British Empire, such as Sir Francis Drake, who appropriated gold from the Spaniards, themselves having previously stolen it from indigenous peoples ("Indians"). The act of pilfering from thieves is presently regarded with skepticism and presents distinct ethical quandaries. Rather, my focus pertains to instances wherein scientific and medical publications/ideas have been unlawfully appropriated. One might assume that such occurrences are antiquated or, at the very least, obsolete in contemporary times. Regrettably, they persist. Wherever opportunities emerge, certain transgressions ensue, irrespective of their moral permissibility. The adage "opportunity makes a thief" holds true. Within this discourse, I will scrutinize and evaluate specific behaviors exhibited by authors affiliated with publishing entities and those commonly termed "pirates". Various measures exist to comprehensively safeguard intellectual property against misappropriation. These encompass strategies such as confidentiality, distrust, heightened security awareness, precautionary measures, exercise of prudence, and the utilization of pre-print servers, among others.
Evaluation of TV White Space Implementation in Indonesia: A Case Study in Yogyakarta
Authors: Aji Lessy Sutiyono , Fronitasari Dini , Ariprawira Galih , Gunawan Dadang
Published: February 2024

TV white space is a technology that utilizes unused spectrum owned by primary users, namely TV broadcasters in a particular area and time. There are two main problems related to the use of white space, namely protection of primary users and identification of white space channels. The prohibited, strict, moderate, and loose (PSML) method has previously been proposed, dividing the TV protection area into four zones to model the white space system. Researchers generally use additional protection areas and television coverage areas with a location probability of less than 70% to consider the possibility of overlap between white space and protected areas. However, this method has not been in implementation in the field. In this study, the author implemented the PSML method in the city of Yogyakarta by using the coverage area of TVRI Patuk as a sample. Based on the measurement results, the author discovered that the deviation between the simulation results and the measurement results was 7.32 dB or 1.82 dB higher than ITU’s recommendation. This deviation indicates that, based on geographical conditions, Yogyakarta has a higher variation in field strength values than ITU’s recommendations.

Published: February 2024

This study was conducted in three randomly selected districts viz. Vehari, Faisalabad, and Narowal of the Punjab province to examine the determinants of livelihood diversification. Using multistage sampling 480 respondents were interviewed face to face using a structured questionnaire and were analyzed by SPSS (version 21). The major findings reveal that most of the smallholders, i.e., 126 (26.3%), relied on cropping and off-farm livelihood diversification strategies to sustain their household income. The structural determinant factors were identified as “push factors” while household/domestic determinant factors were identified as “pull factors” of livelihood diversification.  Moreover, the results of the multiple linear regression model unveiled that household’s choice and adoption of livelihood diversification strategies were positively affected by age, level of education, livestock holding status, access to credit, extension contacts, and income while gender, landholding size, access to irrigation, access to mass media, and crop risk were negatively affected. The study concludes that both structural and household determinants of livelihood diversification contribute positively to improving the smallholders' household well-being and keeping them away from vulnerabilities. The study findings have implications for policymakers and development practitioners who are working to improve the livelihoods of smallholders in the Punjab province, Pakistan.
The Curious Fate of the False Claim of Genocide
Authors: Marchuk Iryna , Wanigasuriya Aloka
Published: February 2024

The International Court of Justice (ICJ) delivered another blow to Ukraine’s litigation strategy. The ICJ only confirmed its jurisdiction for considering Ukraine’s narrow claim that it had not committed genocide in Donbas. As we have previously argued, given the expected modest outcome of the case for Ukraine, it would make sense for Ukraine to expand its litigation strategy beyond the false claim of genocide. Ukraine may consider lodging a new lawsuit before the ICJ under the Genocide Convention, alleging that Russia breached the Convention by committing genocide against Ukrainians as a protected national group.
Analyzing the effect of mycorrhizal fungi on plant communication of nutrients
Authors: Khanderia Aveena , Jones Maya , Khanderia Aanya , Varner Jillian
Published: February 2024

The goal of our experiment was to determine if phosphate transfer occurred between plants, using mycorrhizal fungi. We hypothesized that a “communication” network existed between plants when the mycorrhizal fungi were present and that there would be no transfer of nutrients if the mycorrhizal fungi were not present. This study extended the analysis of Suzanne Simard who studied Paper Birch, Douglas Fir, and Western Red Cedar in Canada. She was able to confirm that there is a massive underground communication where different plants cooperate with resources using mycorrhizal fungi. The purpose of our experiment was to see if plants with nutrients would transfer their excess levels of phosphate to the plant that had a limited amount of nutrients. Overall, no definitive conclusion could be drawn from the treatments conducted. The measurements greatly deviated from the hypothesized results and demonstrated a more complicated relationship than originally thought. Further study will need to be conducted to determine if there are further conditions that must be met, such as a minimum amount of phosphate concentration or a minimum differential between the resources (in terms of this study, phosphate concentration) of the two plants, for this transfer to occur. The results of this study, if replicated and shown to be conclusive at long distances, could be used to aid forest management.

Published: February 2024

Chemotherapy drug “cyclophosphamide (SP)” can trigger oxidative stress that causes hematotoxicity and myelotoxicity, therefore an agent that can suppress the negative effects of cyclophosphamide is needed. Boswellic acid is an herbal medicine that has anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of boswellic acid (BA) in hematology parameter rats induced by cyclophosphamid. Animal were allocated in to six groups, each group consists of 5 rats, the KS: healthy group, KSP: cyclophosphamide group; KSD: comparison group, and BA groups (K1;K2;K3). The treatment groups were given cyclophosphamide (SP) at dose of 150 mg/kg body weight (BW) i.p. The BA groups (K1,K2,K3) were given BA at dose of 250 mg/kg BW orally for 6 consecutive days  and SP on day 1 (K1), day 4 (K2), day 6 (K3). The results showed that BA administration (K2 and K3) can help increase/maintain the amount of hematological parameters including hemoglobin, hematocrit, and erythrocytes. Administrating BA for 6 days consecutively before SP  (K3) has shown best results on hematological parameters than the others including the comparison group. These results suggest that BA may have a potential herbal therapeutic agents that can mitigate cyclophosphamide-induced hematotoxicity manifestations.

Authors: Karunia Esa Putu Devara , Parwata Jaya I Putu
Published: February 2024

The condition of STEMI (ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction) can resemble infectious diseases of the heart such as Myopericarditis with the presence of dominant gastrointestinal symptoms, minimal demographic characteristics and cardiovascular risk factors as well as limited supporting examinations, making it a challenge in determining the diagnosis of cardiovascular disease. Case Report: 31 year old male with complaints of pain in the pit of the stomach that was difficult to describe and discomfort that extended to the chest that was not specific, a history of fever for 2 days, nausea and vomiting and a history of the habit of only consuming alcohol without smoking and the patient doing routine physical activities. ECG examination showed sinus rhythm with ST segment elevation in the precordial (anterior and lateral), inferior and LAD (Left Axis Deviation) leads as well as PR segment depression, Troponin I increased and Echocardiography showed a hypokinetic pattern in the posterior and septal segments of the heart. Fibrinolytics improved the patient's symptoms but not serial EKGs, giving rise to suspicion of STEMI which resembles Myopericarditis. Conclusion: Differential diagnosis with the possibility of myopericarditis was based on clinical findings and minimal risk factors, history of the course of the disease, ECG examination, Cardiac Biomarkers, TTE and Coronary Angiography. The patient underwent a Coronary Angiography examination with normal results, thereby ruling out a diagnosis of STEMI. The diagnostic overlap between STEMI and Myopericarditis was difficult to evaluate.

Published: February 2024

This study is dedicated to examining how the implementation of green accounting and the disclosure of corporate social responsibility impact the value of mining companies in Indonesia through profitability. Green accounting is a relatively novel area of research in Indonesia, particularly in the context of the mining sector. Given the ongoing governmental reforms in the mining industry, with the prohibition of raw material exports under Law Number 3 of 2020 amending Law Number 4 of 2009 on Mineral and Coal Mining, the study finds it intriguing to explore the implications of green accounting. The ban on nickel ore exports, as stipulated by the aforementioned legal amendments, sparked strong opposition from the European Union, leading to Indonesia being taken to the World Trade Organisation (WTO) in early 2021. This policy aligns with the broader objective of downstreaming, which seeks to secure a domestic supply of raw materials for mineral processing and refining, thereby mitigating adverse environmental effects. To initiate the research, the first step involves gathering data on pertinent variables from the financial statements of mining companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange (IDX). Subsequently, SPSS will be employed to conduct tests and assess the influence of green accounting and corporate social responsibility disclosure on firm value, with profitability acting as a mediating factor.

Published: February 2024

The task of determining the efficiency of operation of an absorption heat pump (AHP) with steam heating (COP conversion factor = 1.71) integrated into the thermal circuit of a PT-60/70-130/13 steam turbine that releases production steam and hot water during the partial heat load period (spring and autumn; also referred to as the inteheating period) is being solved in this paper. Variants of operation of the PT-60/70-130/13 with an integrated AHP with a capacity of ~17.25 MW in the partial heat load period were studied when steam with parameters of 1.296 MPa, 280°C was realised in the production selection of the adjustable turbine at flow rates of 20, 30, and 50 t/h with a variable heat load on hot water supply, which was determined by the return network water consumption task 1000–1400 t/h, while the ‘useful’ electrical power of the power complex was provided at ~30 MW. At electricity prices of 0.13 USD/(kWh) and standard fuel of 309 USD/t for Ukraine, the simple payback period of 17.25 MW AHP as part of the PT-60/70-130/13 steam turbine for the partial heat load period at a production load of 20–50 t/h of steam at the consumption of return network water of heat supply 1000–1200 t/h can decrease to two years. At the same time, during the partial heat load period, which lasts ~4404 hours in Ukraine, up to ~1.2% of fuel, up to 44% of technical water for feeding the circulation cooling system, and 0.4% of softened water for feeding are saved. A tangible environmental effect is achieved due to the reduction of harmful emissions – actual heat and hazardous gases – to the atmosphere: CO2 by 1118.7 tons, NOx by 5.87 t, thus saving ~41,000 of technical water.

This paper discusses an important phase in Ludwig Wittgenstein’s analytic philosophy through a comparative examination of the profound correspondences that exist between his concept of silence and the poetics of another crucial authorial figure of the 20th century: James Joyce. Based on the hypothesis that there are striking resemblances between their early works, that is, between Joyce’s realistic short-story collection Dubliners and Wittgenstein’s Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, the article employs mostly close-reading, analytical-interpretative and comparative methods. It argues that silence was an intentional intellectual, aesthetic and ethical choice of both these authors, their way to preserve the autonomy of metaphysics and to honour the beauty of the unspoken.

Starting from their common critical treatment of the habitual and largely alienated speech, the discussion connects Wittgenstein’s philosophical attitudes regarding the imprecision and inadequacy of every-day language and Joyce’s notion of ‘spiritual paralysis’ of the city-life, which he saw as the main motive for writing his collection about fin-desiècle Dublin. On the grounds of their shared views about the limits of words, behind which there are worlds that cannot be properly uttered, the idea of silence – or the highly significant narrative absence – grows to permeate the work of both. In the case of Wittgenstein, it is a call for a new philosophy, or anti-philosophy, which in negating metaphysics in effect preserves its independence from a discursive speech which cannot express it, whereas in the case of Joyce, correspondingly (and almost simultaneously), it is a quest for a new literary mode that will foreground a particular Modernist allusiveness, rhetoric of omission and deliberately incomplete, gnomonical narrative structures.
Philosophical Perspective on Hyperreality as a Phenomenon of Fashion Language – do we Really Want to be Deceived?
Authors: Bukantaitė Sigita , Sederevičiūtė-Pačiauskienė Živilė
Published: February 2024

This article focuses on hyperreality as a phenomenon used in fashion communication. The paper elaborates on the philosophical approach of Jean Baudrillard towards hyperreality, and Georg Simmel’s ideas about fashion’s role in society. The continuity of these authors’ ideas in later works highlights their cultural longevity. From a philosophical perspective, both fashion and hyperreality derive from dualism. Jean Baudrillard defines hyperreality as a condition in which what is real and what is simulated are seamlessly blended together. Hence, it becomes complicated to distinguish them. Fashion, according to Georg Simmel, is also firmly based upon dualism – one power pushes us to bind ourselves to others while another pushes us to distinction. In fashion communication, hyperreality is often used to create a sense of desire and excitement around the brands and products. The effect of passion and the edge of reality combine and evoke many philosophical approaches. We discuss hyperreality as a new reality dialectically – looking for the opposing ideas that would contribute to answering the main question – do we unconsciously want to be deluded? This paper reveals the link between hyperreality as a philosophical approach and fashion communication uncovering the delusion as a human desire.
On the Evidence and Description in Husserl’s Phenomenology
Authors: Sodeika Tomas
Published: February 2024

The aim of this article is to highlight the nature of the fundamental moments of phenomenological research, such as evidence and description, and the ambivalence of their relationship to each other. On the one hand, both evidence and description are related to Husserl’s attempt to ‘return to the things themselves’. Evidence is understood by the founder of phenomenology as a relation to an object in which the meaning of that object is given to us immediately in the object itself. Description, on the other hand, avoids what is characteristic of any interpretation-oriented methodology: the ‘substitution’ of an explanatory reconstruction for the object under study. A certain discrepancy between phenomenological evidence and phenomenological description becomes apparent when we take into account the reception of the text in which the experience of the evidence is described. What is usually overlooked is that an experience whose content is the text being read is not an experience whose content is the phenomenon described in the text. This confusion leads to a turning away from ‘the things themselves’ and a restriction of phenomenology to the realm of texts. The way to avoid this deformation is through a phenomenological reduction, which must be carried out not only by the phenomenologist-researcher but also by the reader of the texts that provide a description of phenomenological experience.
Embodied Cognition and Empathic Experiences in War Communication
Authors: Briedis Mindaugas , Navarro Mariano
Published: February 2024

Using the perspective of phenomenological-enactive embodied cognition, this paper examines the role of the body in constituting specific social interactions via specific media ecologies (war imagery) during the times of (refugee) crisis. Such media ecologies give affordances that can amplify social beliefs and turn subjective judgments into an intersubjective action. We consider the human body in relation to war media as playing an important role in sustaining social experiences and relations. To that end, the article explores the fundamental experience of empathy, combining the theoretical perspectives of phenomenology and enactivism with the examples from war imagery and refugee embodiment. It is shown that the classical phenomenological tradition offers different yet useful conceptualisations of empathy. We also argue that war images and/or messages should be viewed as means/tools for, rather than representations of, the enaction of certain important experiences. Hence, the article connects the analysis of the affection by war imagery with the subsequent social interactions in the context of refugee crisis.
Contours of Thinking in Heidegger: A Dionysian Science
Authors: Stasiulis Nerijus
Published: February 2024

Heidegger’s thinking should not be labelled rationalist or irrationalist. Because the definitions of rationality and irrationality, which can be seen as derived from Descartes’ or Cartesian philosophy, are deconstructed by Heidegger. The movement of this deconstruction is twofold: at the same time it is a thinking retrieval of the ontologico-historical origin of (Western) thought. The retrieval results in Heidegger’s notion of temporalising Being. This ‘notion’ can also be seen as informed by Nietzsche’s ‘will to power’ and, in turn, to inform its understanding or interpretation itself.
The Silent Communication
Authors: Mickūnas Algis
Published: February 2024

The essay discloses dimensions of communicative awareness, which are both local and general in the sense that they are recognised in all civilisations and pervade the researches of anthropologists, archeologists and historians. These dimensions are bodily activities composed of six practical orientations: up-down, left-right and forward-backward. Our social architecture, our systems of practical implements, our spaces and times of orientations are inscribed by both, the specific bodily situations and their silent background in all communicative awareness. Even languages are variations on these silent dimensions of activities: we face the future – a forward orientation; we leave the past behind – pertaining to our backward dimension; there are upper and lower social classes, left and right political movements. These silent dimensions are both universal and contingent.
Can’t Bottom-up Artificial Moral Agents Make Moral Judgements?
Authors: M. Boyles Robert James
Published: February 2024

This article examines if bottom-up artificial moral agents are capable of making genuine moral judgements, specifically in light of David Hume’s is-ought problem. The latter underscores the notion that evaluative assertions could never be derived from purely factual propositions. Bottom-up technologies, on the other hand, are those designed via evolutionary, developmental, or learning techniques. In this paper, the nature of these systems is looked into with the aim of preliminarily assessing if there are good reasons to suspect that, on the foundational level, their moral reasoning capabilities are prone to the no-ought-from-is thesis. The main hypothesis of the present work is that, by conceptually analysing the notion of bottom-up artificial moral agents, it would be revealed that their seeming moral judgements do not have proper philosophical basis. For one, the said kinds of artifacts arrive at the understanding of ethically-relevant ideas by means of culling data or facts from the environment. Thus, in relation to the is-ought problem, it may be argued that, even if bottom-up systems seem prima facie capable of generating apparent moral judgments, such are actually absent of good moral grounding, if not empty of any ethical value.
Post-Human and Trans-Human in the Future Perspective of the Humanity
Authors: Chursinova Oksana , Sinelnikova Maria
Published: February 2024

The article considers the issue of chnging the main anthropic characteristics of a human under the influence of the rapid development of the latest technologies. Such changes cause the need to revise the usual interpretation of the concept of ‘human’, which is gradually being substituted by the currently popular concepts of ‘trans-’ and ‘post-human’. These concepts are favourably perceived by the techno-optimists, who believe that the latest technologies will allow us to create people who will be physically, intellectually and spiritually superior to the people of today, although they admit that this may lead to greater social inequality.

The article states that the post-human potential is too ambiguous to clearly outline it. On the one hand, it opens up unprecedented possibilities, which can be considered the highest manifestation of human freedom, i.e. the ability to model a person according to one’s vision. On the other – there is a real threat to human existence itself, namely, the danger of technological capture of the potential for human improvement. Therefore, the task of the article is to outline the possible prospects for the formation and improvement of modern human identity under the conditions of its combination with the other, non-human species and the latest technologies. This is possible under the condition of acceptance of new possibilities for the post-human as the liberating force that overcomes the negativity and limitations of human nature.

The comparative method and the method of analysis were used in the article.
The Philosophical Aspect of Contemporary Technology: Ellulian Technique and Infinite Scroll within Social Media
Authors: Knyzelis Milvydas
Published: February 2024

Infinite scroll as a digital technology feature was introduced in 2006 and instantly gained momentum in a variety of platforms. The efficient and engaging technology experience brought by infinite scroll aligns well with the French sociologist Jacques Ellul’s concept of technique. Ellul does not perceive technique as technology, instead, he views it as a phenomenon of efficiency, permeating the societal, political and economic fields of human activity. By applying the characteristics of Ellul’s technique to the infinite scroll feature within social media, this paper uncovers insights into how it aligns with Ellul’s concept. In such a way, the Ellulian perspective allows an understanding of infinite scroll as part of a broader sociotechnical phenomenon. The article does not aim to spread a negative approach towards technology but rather to provide another perspective upon which digital technology might be analysed.
