Authors: Tiganea Oana Cristina , Vigotti Francesca
Published: April 2023

The 1972 Convention Text mentioned the need to pursue collective assistance for the safeguard of cultural and natural heritage considered of Outstanding Universal Value. As of 2021, 52 properties are inscribed as World Heritage in Dan- ger. The most recent such nomination in Europe is the cultural site of Roșia Montană Mining Landscape (Romania), listed as World Heritage in July 2021. The paper will pose a reflection over the simultaneous status of Roșia Montană as World Heritage mining cultural landscape and as a productive system still in use, tackling the social and environmental issues that derive from the analyzed context. Furthermore, it will be investigated the conceptual transformation of the cultural landscape in relation to the mining legacies and their methodological approach within the patrimonial acknowledgement, stressing the role that the UNESCO label can play while negotiating at local and regional level such aspects of the multi-scale territorial legacies.

The site of Lalibela is the result of Tertiary volcanic activity which led to the formation of a vast outcrop of basaltic slag from which churches were carved. This reddish rock which is particularly suitable for carving, is extremely interactive with water. It was beneficial for the impressive excavation phases, but is now problematic for conservation purposes. Digging meant either the penetration of water into the massif and its erosion, but also the protection of the monuments from water stagnation. This is a very paradoxical situation in which water plays an alternately positive and negative role. Due to its sacred dimension, any intervention on the rock must be discussed and validated by the community. 3D technologies were used to carry out an assessment of the state of the site, to create a virtual 3D model that can be accessed and consulted remotely by all the specialists faced to the conservation problem; to trace the historical evolution of the site.

Authors: Ciuffreda Anna Livia , Coli Massimo , Tanganelli Marco , Verdiani Giorgio
Published: April 2023

This work reports the results of a multidisciplinary research project concerning the historical complex of Palazzo Vecchio in Florence. This building of exceptional size is the result of successive evolutions starting from the thirteenth century in an area that has been urbanized since the Roman age. The study, which aimed at assessing the seismic vulnerability of the complex, required the completion of numerous sub-phases for the architectural and structural characterization of the building: the identification of the structural units, the historical research, the architectural and structural geometric survey, the study of the subsoil and the integration of non-destructive or partially destructive diagnostic campaigns. The creation of a three-dimensional parametric model (BIM) has allowed the computerized management of data from the knowledge acquisition process and its use for the analysis of seismic vulnerability, for the facility management of the complex and for the creation of virtual museum itineraries.

OVER POPULATION AS A MAJOR ENVIRONMENTAL THREAT: A STUDY OF HARRY HARRISON’S MAKE ROOM! MAKE ROOM!
Authors: Komal
Published: April 2023

Overpopulation has been acknowledged as a global environmental threat for a few decades, as it has catalyzed several unfavorable reactions in the environment. Although developed countries consume the environment's resources and recapitulate it, developing nations are under pressure to become economically strong, and as a result, their industrial advancements destroy the environment as well. This progress threatens the life of our upcoming generation on earth. In addition to this, one of the biggest hazards on the environment due to population explosion is the problem of global warming. Our scientists continuously warn that this gradual increment in population affects global warming that will lead to upsurging sea levels and unfavorable weather altitude in the future. Overpopulation directly harms the existing environmental cycle. For example, to fulfill the requirement of the population density forests are cutting in a frightening manner. Despite deforestation, urban sprawl, food insecurity, climate change, and declining biocapacity are some of the most severe impacts of population explosion. The objective of this paper is to analyze the hazards of Overpopulation on the environment and economic advancement by taking the reference of the novel Make Room! Make Room! by Harry Harrison as the basis of the study. The present study is based on textual analysis of the novel along with secondary data taken from statistical abstracts, census reports and world population report, and various websites related with the theme.

Worker execution level and representative fulfilment are frequently connected. Yet, the unfair restriction affects the associations' worker execution level. In any association level, biased-based obstruction typically has a particularly significant role in improving worker performance and raising the degree of satisfaction. Several methods, such as worker turnover, representative commitment to authoritative decisions, representative non-appearance, and others, can be used to measure the representative presentation. Improved performance at the association, such as in evaluation development and efficiency level, can aid in worker fulfilment. Based on data collected from Hyderabad and Secunderabad, two of Telangana's major cities, it was determined that maintaining employees' exhibition in the ideal position can improve representative fulfilment. This was determined to be possible provided that the employees face little to no discriminatory restriction within the organisation.

Published: April 2023

Analytical investigations on the static and dynamic behaviour of light weight structural sandwich panels, which are widely employed in maritime, aircraft, transport, and mechanical/civil engineering applications, are provided. These light, thin-walled structures can vibrate ferociously and are sensitive to even the smallest disturbances. So, the main goal of this work is to improve sandwich panels' static and dynamic behaviour by investigating various face sheets and core materials. Studies on carbon-based polymer nanocomposite are currently generating more interest because to its favourable thermal, electric, magnetic, and structural characteristics. In this study, functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced polymer composite faces with a 3D graphene foam core and functionally graded carbon nanotube reinforced polymer composite faces were all used to make the sandwich panels. Also, the thermal stresses created in this structure when these panels are exposed to a thermal environment have a significant impact on the dynamic behaviour. Hence, the honeycomb core and polymer composite sandwich panels with reinforced FG-CNT face sheets are examined in various thermal environments. This study examines the properties of forced and free vibration to analyse the dynamic behaviour of a structure

Clerical-Collar Crime: How Church Members Deal When Church Leaders Steal Church Property
Authors: Grumbles Preslie B.
Published: April 2023

Christian churches will lose an estimated $59 billion worldwide to embezzlement in 2022. Embezzlement and other white-collar crimes are property theft crimes characterized by the violation of another’s trust. This Comment names white-collar crimes committed exclusively by church leaders or officials “clerical-collar crimes.” Distinguishing clerical-collar crime from white-collar crime gives weight to and promotes future consideration of the unique problems that arise when church leaders and officials commit clerical-collar crime.Although clerical-collar crime is subject to civil and criminal liability, this Comment focuses solely on victims’ experiences in bringing civil claims against perpetrators of clerical-collar crime in Texas and leaves clerical-collar crime prosecution and punishment to future study. This Comment begins by examining three reasons why churches are uniquely vulnerable to clerical-collar crime. Then, this Comment describes three civil claims church members can bring against perpetrators of clerical-collar crime, two challenges church members face in bringing those claims in Texas, and the difficulty of recovering stolen property due to the judgment-proof problem. This Comment concludes by making several recommendations to protect churches from clerical-collar crime and mitigate victims’ losses.

Published: April 2023

According to the Riga Peace Treaty of March 18, 1921, both parties were obliged, no later than six months from the date of ratification of the agreement to begin negotiations on the conclusion of a special Trade Agreement and an agreement on compensatory barter. Desiring to improve Soviet-Polish trade relations between representatives of the Office of the Authorized People’s Commissariat for Foreign Trade of RSFSR under the Council of People’s Commissars of the BSSR and Polish business circles (joint-stock companies Dava-Britopol, Palantyn, Zapadoles, Gratenau). Their result was the conclusion of several agricultural implements, certain types of food chemical compounds.
In the initial period of the formation of foreign economic relations between the BSSR and the Polish Republic, Belvneshtorg played a positive role in the formation and development of international economic and technical ties between the BSSR and Poland. Commercial  transactions of the organization largely determined the import and export of Soviet Belarus, which positively influenced the formation of the industrial and economic complex of the country in the early 1920s, the development of the economy, education and science of the republic. The formation and development of export-import operations took place in a difficult situation. There were a number of factors that negatively affected the activities of the NKVT of the BSSR, lowered the efficiency of its work: the monopoly of foreign trade, strict dictatorship by the Supreme Council of National Economy and its structures in the BSSR, the lack of a well-thought-out market legislative base, coupled with bureaucratic shortcomings, unfavorable conditions in the European and world markets, ill-conceived foreign policy strategy of the state, lack of effective management.
Medical assistance to the population of Western Belarus in the context of the development of healthcare in the interwar Poland (1919–1939)
Authors: Kapliyev Alexey
Published: April 2023

The article analyzes the formation of the health care system in the territory of Western Belarus during the interwar period. On the basis of a wide range of sources, the general trends in the development of medicine in the Polish state in the interwar period, as well as the characteristics that determined the aberrations in the construction of the healthcare structure in the Belarusian territory were identified. It was found that the negative humanitarian consequences of the First World War and the Polish-Soviet war, combined with the economic and economic difficulties of the post-war period, caused a chronic health crisis in Western Belarus throughout the interwar period. After the liquidation of the Polish Ministry of Health in 1923, the centralized management of the healthcare system was replaced by a decentralized model, with the allocation of the state, municipal, insurance and private sectors of medicine. The decentralized model of healthcare worked well in the proper Polish lands, but was not suitable for the conditions of Western Belarus, where the lack of medical personnel, health institutions and their concentration mainly in large cities in conditions of significant geographical remoteness of settlements with a predominance of rural areas, combined with the weak development of transport communications, predetermined a low degree of provision of medical care for most population. As a result, the healthcare of Western Belarus lagged significantly behind the general Polish level in development, and additional opportunities to expand medical care to the civilian population were drawn from the resources of charity, public associations and military medicine.

Authors: KOROLKOV OLEG
Published: April 2023

With the outbreak of World War I on July 30, 1914, representatives of the zemstvos created one of the largest public organizations - the All-Russian Zemstvo Union for Assistance to Sick and Wounded Soldiers (ARZU). It, along with the government, was involved in helping the front. There were 39 departments in the Union system: evacuation of the wounded, medical and sanitary, donation collection, sanitary trains, linen and clothing, assistance to crippled soldiers, assistance to refugees, economic, supply, procurement, sanitary and technical, assistance to prisoners of war, etc. There were "frontline" committees of the ARZU on each front. This article examines the contribution of the Northern Front Committee to the cause of assistance to military personnel. The main activity of the Committee was the medical support of the wounded and sick soldiers and officers in hospitals and infirmaries, which made it possible to return 40-50% of all the wounded and 62% of all patients to service. Vaccination work and the activities of bacteriological laboratories made it possible to sharply reduce the incidence of infectious diseases in the Russian army, for example, typhoid fever from 16.7% in 1915 to 3.13% in 1916. The organization of dental offices became an innovation in the Russian troops. Sanitary-hygienic and economic-supply activities, carried out through the provision of bath-laundry and shoe-repair services, the work of nutrition points, tea and camp shops, significantly improved the conditions for soldiers and officers at the front.

Authors: Cedeño Moreira Mercedes Dayanara
Published: April 2023

El silencio administrativo es una herramienta para facilitar trámites y vencer la inoperancia, es necesario advertir que tiene algunas limitaciones que, a pesar de ser obvias, no han sido tomadas en cuenta, ya que tiene algunos vacíos legales en lo referente a su aplicación, que se han ido cubriendo gracias a la legislación emitida bajo la figura de resoluciones o absoluciones de consultas de algunos órganos del Estado. Recordemos que la Jurisprudencia, después de la ley, es la más importante fuente del Derecho Administrativo, y según nuestra legislación, en unos casos es fuente primaria y obligatoria, mientras que en otros, es solo secundaria y referencial; se plantea analizar el silencio administrativo positivo ya que ha sido objeto de muchas controversias en el campo del derecho, en nuestra legislación no existe un procedimiento claro, detallado y preestablecido de ejecución, entonces recurrir a la Ley Contencioso administrativa, para llenar los vacíos legales dentro de la institución del Silencio Administrativo es muy significativo, porque aporta con elementos importantes para contestar de manera coherente y aplicarlo. Este estudio corresponde a un tipo de investigación descriptiva, cuyo fundamento es propender a descifrar características del fenómeno sometido a estudio, evaluar la situación actual, con un enfoque cualitativo, histórico lógico, e inductivo-deductivo, basándose en diversas fuentes bibliográficas de autores clásicos como modernos, así como normativa histórica y desarrollo jurisprudencial en materia Contencioso Administrativa a partir en el que se determina las consecuencias que se genera en respecto a la aplicación del silencio administrativo.

Evaluation of extremity and pelvis traumas admitted to the emergency department before and during the pandemic; with laboratory, embolism and mortality data
Authors: DEMİRCİ Burak , COŞKUN Abuzer
Published: April 2023

Aim: The purpose of this study was to determine the forms of trauma, demographic features, embolism status and mortality of patients who presented to the emergency department due to extremity and pelvis trauma before and during the pandemic period.

Material and Method: This retrospective study included 319 patients, who presented to the emergency department due to trauma between January 1, 2019, and December 31, 2020. The associations between embolism and mortality after trauma, as well as COVID-19, were investigated.

Results: The mean age of the 319 patients was 55.11±19.02 years, the distribution was 19-90 years and 133 (41.7%) were women. It was determined that 171 (53.7%) of the trauma patients were in the pre-pandemic period and 148(46.3%) were in the pandemic period. Embolism was detected in 19 (11.1%) cases before the pandemic and in 35 (23.6%) cases during the pandemic (p=0.003). Pre-pandemic mortality was observed in 10(5.8%) cases, and in pandemic 21 (14.2%) cases (p=0.010). While embolism was present in 22 (71%) cases in the mortality group, it was not observed in 9(29%) cases (p=0.001).

Conclusion: COVID-19 infection and pandemic can adversely affect the incidence of trauma, embolism and mortality. Embolism and mortality rates have increased significantly with the effects of COVID-19 during the pandemic period.

Aim: In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) administered shortly before intravenous (iv) F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) injection on the physiological FDG uptake in the gastrointestinal tract (GIS) of patients undergoing F-18 FDG positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for oncological purposes. Material and Method: We retrospectively evaluated 350 patients who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT in our clinic between November 2020 and June 2021. Among these, 178 patients were given iv PPIs before the scan and the remaining 172 patients with similar characteristics were not. FDG uptake in the gastrointestinal tract was analyzed visually and quantitatively. Results: The mean age of the patients was 51.7±15 years. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of age and gender. Quantitative evaluation revealed that the FDG uptakes in the stomach, duodenum, ileum, and transverse colon and their ratio to hepatic uptake were significantly lower in the group receiving iv PPIs (p

Aim: Contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN), a significant complication of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), is related to increased morbidity and mortality. It has been suggested that inflammation plays an important role in the development of CIN. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic role of the CANLPH score, a new indicator of inflammation, in predicting CIN and in-hospital mortality among patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) undergoing PCI. Material and Method: This retrospective study included 1475 patients with STEMI undergoing PCI. CIN was defined as a 25% or 0.5 mg/dL increase in serum creatinine compared to the baseline value within 48 h after PCI. The preprocedural modified Mehran score was calculated for each patient. The CANLPH score was derived from the cut-off points of the platelet/lymphocyte ratio, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, and platelet/hemoglobin ratio to predict CIN. Results: The mean age of the patients was 62.0±14.3 years and the majority were male (69.8%). The incidence of CIN was determined as 11.5%. Multivariable regression analysis showed that increased CANLPH score (OR=4.49, p
