Authors: Tushakova Zilya R. , Chizhikova Elena S.
Published: December 2023

Importance. One of the key tasks of the production practice is the experience of transferring knowledge to independently solve new tasks. Modeling of production processes in virtual laboratories, VR training sessions, blockchain can be considered as technologies aimed at development the ability to data transfer, analyze, and systematize. Digitalization of practical training is able to solve the problems of non-standard thinking development, the need to strengthen the responsibility of students, the specialist qualification dependence on the digital technologies possession degree. The possibilities of digital technologies, intellectual information and educational systems in the focus of practical training of students and the development of thinking formed the purpose of the research. Materials and Methods. The review of information sources is carried out, the own experience of practical training organization is systematized. The survey method investigated the attitude of students to online interaction, the attitude of enterprises to the admission of trainees to production facilities. A model of the procedure for evaluating and storing practice results is proposed. Results and Discussion. Artificial intelligence and process automation shift the emphasis of education from algorithmized activities (reading material, drawing up a text plan, selecting key ideas, etc.) to the development of specific non-standard skills – the ability to find a non-stereotypical optimal solution, conduct expertise, apply knowledge in unusual conditions. At the same time, the reduction in the volume of subject material allows us to pay more attention to the development of non-routine actions, autonomy in the workplace, and the development of a proactive attitude to the profession. The virtual model of the technological process allows to see in detail any element of the complex, while the VR operator perceives the object and forms a response. The analysis of the spatial position and state of the object, the transfer of existing theoretical knowledge into a specific production situation, the formation of an objects holistic perception develop both thinking and practical skills. Evaluation of students practical training results with the use of blockchain increases the efficiency of the process, makes the data storage system reliable. Conclusion. Modernization of vocational education through the introduction of adaptive and practice-oriented educational programs, learning and evaluation algorithms based on artificial intelligence solutions will ensure effective digital training.

The editorial policy of the journal is characterized and analyzed, including its principles and criteria for the selection of materials, the role of K.D. Ushinsky in its formation and implementation is revealed. An assumption has been made about the influence of V.G. Belinsky’s editorial views on his work. The materials published in the journal are classified, their compliance with K.D. Ushinsky’s educational ideas is revealed. The difficulties of the editor in the organization of the journal and the reasons for the anonymous writing of articles by K.D. Ushinsky are determined.
Conclusion. Leading the journal, K.D. Ushinsky selected materials based on their scientific character, practical orientation, reliability, accessibility, subjectivity, materials not just pedagogical, but socio-educational, therefore civil, content. His editorial policy was fundamentally focused on education, methodological support for teachers, popularization of public education, and advanced European experience in organizing schools while preserving the nationality of education. All this was directly correlated with the pedagogical views of Ushinsky himself.
Activities of the NKVD−NKGB−MVD−MGB USSR bodies in ensuring public security in the territory of Western Belarus (1939−1953)
Authors: Bugaev Vitaly N.
Published: December 2023

Importance. Interest in the events taking place on the territory of Western Belarus in the period 1939–1953 is supported both by the complexity and inconsistency of the processes that are taking place today in the Russian Federation and abroad, and by the insufficient degree of study of certain issues related to the activities of law enforcement agencies in the history of our state. Topics related to the activities of the NKVD−NKGB−MVD−MGB of the USSR bodies on the territory of Western Belarus in 1939–1953 are currently not sufficiently studied in detail by historical science, which leads to the falsification of historical events of those years. The purpose of the research is to reveal the historical events taking place on the territory of the western regions of Belarus and the activities of the law enforcement agencies of the Soviet state to ensure public safety in 1939–1953 in this region.
Materials and Methods. The research is based on declassified archival materials of the Republic of Belarus, the State Archive of the Russian Federation and the Russian State Military Archive. Party materials of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Belarus (CPB), Minsk, Brest and Pinsk regional committees of the CPB, the Political Department of the Red Army, documents of the Belarusian headquarters of the partisan movement and the People’s Commissariat of Internal Affairs of the USSR – the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the USSR (1934–1960) are studied. Both general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, as well as synchronistic and problem-chronological methods are used.
Results and Discussion. The German aggression against Poland in 1939 contributed to the reunification of Western and Eastern Belarus, and also put before the state authorities of the USSR the restructuring of all spheres of life of the local population. The features and directions of restructuring the activities of the NKVD−NKGB−MVD−MGB of the USSR to ensure public safety in the specified historical period on the territory of Western Belarus are investigated. Specific measures that were carried out by the law enforcement agencies of the USSR to ensure public security in the western regions of Belarus in the period 1939–1953 are considered. Considerable attention is paid to the activities of the NKVD−NKGB−MVD−MGB of the USSR to eliminate the nationalist underground on the eve of the war and in the post-war period on the territory of Western Belarus.
Conclusion. The joint activities of law enforcement agencies and state authorities played an important role in ensuring public safety in the territory of Western Belarus in 1939–1953.

Authors: Ignatowa Svetlana A. , Ivanova Olga D. , Yamshikova Sofia O.
Published: December 2023

We describe a clinical case of performed blockade of the brachial plexus from the supraclavicular approach and sequential spinal anesthesia in a 66-year-old patient with a false joint of lower third of both bones of the left forearm in metallosteosynthesis. After preoperative preparation and examination, the patient sequentially underwent surgery: Removal of the titanium plate and screws. Trapezoidal osteotomy of the ulna. Matti-Russe bone graft. Reosteosynthesis with two titanium plates and screws. The postoperative period passed without complications. On the 9th day the patient was discharged. This clinical demonstration showed the possibility of performing a sequential complex and long-term surgical intervention for pseudarthrosis of lower third of both bones of the left forearm under anesthesia in the form of blockade of the brachial plexus using a supraclavicular approach and spinal anesthesia, which allowed for high-quality intraoperative and postoperative analgesia of the operated upper limb. This combination of regional anesthesia methods contributed to the early mobilization of the patient, the prevention of thromboembolic complications in the early postoperative period, and made it possible to avoid the development of postoperative complications.

The article presents the unique results of the study and photographs of the core of serpentinites saturated with hydrocarbons (HC). During the core study, the rock mineral composition was investigated, the order of mineral formation as well as the nature of serpentinite saturation with hydrocarbons was determined,pyrolytic analysis of samples was carried out, and the geothermal history of rocks was assessed. The model of reservoir formation in serpentinites and metasomatites based on them, time and stage of its filling with HC was proposed. It was identified that the serpentinite massif at a certain stage of alteration is represented by a porous reservoir, transforming into a porous fractured one under the influence of tectonics. The features of structural and tectonic structure of the massif, its slaty structure, determine the alternation of sites with various reservoir types in the section. Due to the different pore sizes caused by the different mineralogicalrock composition, a natural separation of incoming HC was taken place/is taken place, as a result of of the process, an “interlayering” of intervals with different saturation – oil-saturated, gas-saturated and without saturation in the section is noted. The input of HC into the rock was pulse-coupled and is probably currently coming from deeper rocks.
Adipose tissue lymphocytes and obesity
Authors: Gao Feng , Litchfield Benjamin , Wu Huaizhu
Published: December 2023

Obesity is associated with chronic inflammation in adipose tissue (AT), mainly evidenced by infiltration and phenotypic changes of various types of immune cells. Macrophages are the major innate immune cells and represent the predominant immune cell population within AT. Lymphocytes, including T cells and B cells, are adaptive immune cells and constitute another important immune cell population in AT. In obesity, CD8+ effector memory T cells, CD4+ Th1 cells, and B2 cells are increased in AT and promote AT inflammation, while regulatory T cells and Th2 cells, which usually function as immune regulatory or type 2 inflammatory cells, are reduced in AT. Immune cells may regulate the metabolism of adipocytes and other cells through various mechanisms, contributing to the development of metabolic diseases, including insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Efforts targeting immune cells and inflammation to prevent and treat obesity-linked metabolic disease have been explored, but have not yielded significant success in clinical studies. This review provides a concise overview of the changes in lymphocyte populations within AT and their potential role in AT inflammation and the regulation of metabolic functions in the context of obesity.

Authors: Yaja Millo , Kumar Anuj , Mamung Millo , Roy Bindu
Published: December 2023

Purpose – The level of tourism development in any destination is directly related to the cooperation of the local community, and this is especially true in rural areas in many parts of the world. Many governments initiate development programs related to tourism in rural areas to provide new opportunities for local communities. However, most local communities are unaware of these opportunities. This study therefore examined how tourism forums influence awareness and perceptions of tourism development. Design/Methodology – Data were collected from local tourism entrepreneurs using a structured questionnaire. Tourism entrepreneurs in this study include host families, hotels, gift stores, and transportation entrepreneurs from the rural region. Findings – The results indicate that there are significant differences in perceptions of tourism development between those who attend the forum(s) and those who do not. Furthermore, these differences vary between different types of tourism service providers. Perceptions of tourism service providers are influenced by their knowledge of tourism programs and their participation in public forums. Originality – All respondents in this study were first generation entrepreneurs, which in itself makes this study unique. The fact that tourism forum(s) act as a platform to eliminate misunderstandings between authorities and local communities has not been highlighted and distinguished in previous studies, which makes this study an original contribution.

Published: December 2023

The use of chemical fertilizer in rice fields contributes to increased global warming via enhanced emission of methane (CH4) into the atmosphere. Therefore, composting has been proposed to reduce methane emissions in the agricultural field. This study aimed to determine the CH4 emission and rice yield affected by compost from three different types of compost: herbal compost, eucalyptus compost, and manure compost. This randomized block design study was conducted from November 2019 to May 2020. There were 8 fertilizer treatments applied to the rice fields, namely: herbal compost 10 tons/ha. (O1), eucalyptus compost 10 tons/ha (O2), manure compost 10 tons/ha (O3), no compost no chemical fertilizer (as a control) (O4), herbal compost 5 tons/ha + chemical fertilizer/CF (C1), eucalyptus compost 5 tons/ha + CF (C2), manure compost 5 tons/ha + CF (C3), and only chemical fertilizer (C4), then all treatments replicated three times. For the chemical fertilizer (CF) the dose is 166 kg/ha urea + 166 kg/ha ZA + 330 kg/ha TSP. The result indicated that the compost manure 10 tons/ha (O3) and the combination compost manure 5 tons/ha + CF (C3) produced the highest rice yields (6.89 -6.94 tons/ha) but impacted the highest methane emissions (505.3 – 544.6 Kg.CH4 /ha/season). The important finding showed that among all the treatments, a combination of compost eucalyptus 5 tons/ha + CF (C2) and compost eucalyptus 10 tons/ha (O2) mitigated methane emission to the lowest level (296.6 -305.2 Kg.CH4/ha/season) and gave high rice yields (6.77-6.78 tons/ha) that were not significantly different from those of compost manure (O3 and C3). In addition, the combination of compost herbal 5 tons/ha and chemical fertilizer (C1) affected the lower methane emissions than manure compost and gave a high level of grain yield that was not significantly different from those of manure compost (O3 and C3) and eucalyptus compost (O2 and C2). 
CRITERIAL APPROACHES TO THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY SECURITY ACTIVITIES ASSESSMENT
Authors: Shchurov Igor
Published: December 2023

The modern concept of economic systems security activity has been updated, which consists in the formation of a business entity security strategy that would not violate the security parameters dictated by the external environment. It is emphasized that the level of the state's energy supply security is characterized by a certain vulnerability to threats, and it is proved that the resistance to threats is inherent in enterprises, since the ability to perform their functions of energy supply for other enterprises forms the phenomenon of ensuring the energy security of dependent economic entities. In the process of research, it is proposed to use such security parameters as economic, energy, ecological and informational, and the justification of their choice and their evaluation criteria is carried out. For each of the selected security parameters, key threats are defined taking into account the specifics of the industry. Enterprise security is considered in the context of selected parameters. The interaction of the security of the business entity and state security is reflected. The main measures and directions that will enable the key parameters of security operation in the oil and gas industry are summarized. It is proposed to form a methodology for assessing the level of security of oil and gas enterprises based on  the obtained theoretical studies.

Published: December 2023

The role of staff assessment as a key element of the effectiveness of the formation, use and development of the personnel potential of the enterprise in the modern conditions of the enterprises and the functioning of their human resources management systems has been determined. To ensure the effectiveness of staff assessment, it must be carried out in stages, systematically, using certain technologies and tools, which will allow to objectively evaluate employees and make effective management decisions on this basis. All stages, technologies and tools that must be used in the organization of staff assessment at the enterprise were described in the study. At a modern enterprise, in order to implement an effective labor process taking into account innovative development and trends occurring in the economy, it is necessary to take into account not only the qualifications of employees, but also their social behavior, the ability to work in a group, initiative and willingness to take risks and potential opportunities to develop in the future. In turn, this created the need to find a scientifically based basis for the effective implementation of all human resources management processes at the enterprise, including staff assessment. Such a basis is the competence approach, which presents ample opportunities for describing knowledge, abilities, skills, personal and business qualities, motivational and goal settings, experience and potential of employees, which are necessary to achieve a high level of efficiency of the labor process. A competent approach to staff assessment increases the effectiveness of the evaluation in various economic, social, and psychological aspects. The characteristics of the staff assessment system based on the competence approach and its main elements are provided. The article proposed a general algorithm and a logical scheme for evaluating the company's personnel based on the competency approach.

MONITORING OF THE COMMERCIAL POTENTIAL OF INTELLECTUAL AND INNOVATIVE BUSINESS STRUCTURES
Authors: Shaulska Larysa , Raiko Diana , Dyuzhev Viktor , Dolyna Irina
Published: December 2023

The article proves that the principles of monitoring the commercial potential of intellectual technologies have one common property - systematicity, that is, despite the high importance of each individual factor (indicator), economic monitoring considers them only in a certain aggregate (system). In addition, the consideration of individual factors of commercial potential may lead to a certain distortion of the resulting indicator, since each indicator has its own rank, its own degree of influence on the final result, which, of course, should also be taken into account. Based on these premises, we propose to add two more, in our opinion, extremely important principles to the system of traditional monitoring principles: the principle of systematicity and the principle of integration. It is substantiated that the monitoring of the commercial potential of intellectual technologies should be carried out taking into account certain requirements, the essence of which is reproduced in the principles of commercial potential monitoring proposed in the article: the principle of organization; the principle of identity; the principle of purposefulness; principle of accuracy; principle of detailing; principle of integration; the principle of purposefulness; the principle of objectivity; the principle of effectiveness of monitoring results. An organizational system for monitoring the commercial potential of intellectual-innovative business structures has been developed to ensure the sustainability of its development and functioning. It provides for the following measures at the industrial enterprise: determination of the composition of units participating in the monitoring of commercial potential; training of specialists responsible for monitoring, methodology and methods of analysis of information received from units; carrying out work and meetings with heads of interested units to provide them with assistance in organizing work on the creation and functioning of the monitoring system; identification of sources of source information; systematization, processing and interpretation of the obtained indicators; development of a strategy for sustainable intellectual and innovative development of the enterprise; regular adjustment of current management decisions in the field of commercialization of intellectual and innovative technologies. The application of the developed tools for ensuring the sustainable development of the enterprise based on the formation and use of the innovative potential monitoring system in practice makes it possible to reasonably revise the strategic orientations of the enterprise regarding the implementation of innovations and obtain an economic effect expressed in the sustainable development of the enterprise, strengthening its position on the market, increasing the efficiency of its functioning.

Published: December 2023

Current environmental and socio-economic problems related to unsatisfactory quality of sewage treatment have been investigated in the paper. It is noted that the search for optimal ways of neutralization of negative consequences of economic activity is an integral component of the strategy of life support development. The characteristic of the current state of the wastewater of Ukraine and Kharkiv region is given. The economic feasibility of using water-soluble environmentally friendly sorbent at the physical-chemical purification of sewage from ions of heavy metals is calculated. It has been proved that it is possible to receive a complexing agent with a much lower cost in comparison to synthetic analogueues on the basis of brown coal the significant reserves of which Ukraine obtains. It is demonstrated that application of the combined method of ultrafiltration with complexation combining when using complexing agents based on humic substances of lignite allows to increase the degree of purification from heavy metal ions significantly. It has been established that the level of coordinated innovations in industry, as well as the volume of capital investments for the extraction of brown coal of Ukraine and the development of water protection activities is insufficient. The importance of its increase is justified. The economic efficiency of the humic substances obtained from the lignite of the Oleksandriiske deposit usage for the binding of heavy metal ions using the complexation-ultrafiltration method was determined. It was noted that organization of a new modern production of effective reagents based on brown coal will lead to creation of additional jobs and will ensure compliance with drinking water quality standards, as well as to improve the ecological state of natural water sources. A new production will have a beneficial effect on development of brown coal mining regions infrastructure.

Authors: Avdeev S. N. , Linnik S. A. , Tumenko E. E.
Published: December 2023

Introduction. The article presents data from an analysis of drug provision for patients with bronchial asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, both in inpatient conditions and at the stage of outpatient treatment. The object of the study was the provision of medications to patients with broncho-obstructive diseases in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. The purpose  of our study was to study drug provision for patients with broncho-obstructive diseases. Why the following research methods were used: purchases of medicines in federal districts and some constituent entities of the Russian Federation in 2019–2022 were analyzed, the amount of funds per patient diagnosed with bronchial asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease was calculated. Separately, we analyzed the purchases of short- and long-acting bronchodilators, as well as mono- and combination drugs and monoclonal antibody drugs for the treatment of patients with bronchial asthma. Data on drug purchases were analyzed using the website zakupki.gov.ru; information on the number of patients in federal districts and constituent entities of the Russian Federation was taken from statistical materials of the Russian Ministry of Health. Results. We found a multiple difference between federal districts in the amount of funds per patient in both 2019 and 2022, and differentiation between federal districts also turned out to be the case when analyzing preferential drug coverage. The dynamics of the amounts of funds spent by entities on the purchase of drugs for the treatment of patients in outpatient settings turned out to be multidirectional: some entities not only did not increase these amounts in 2012 compared to 2019, but, on the contrary, decreased them. At the same time, the difference between the subjects of the same federal district reaches tenfold values. Conclusion. Patients with broncho-obstructive diseases living in different federal districts of the country have different drug coverage both in outpatient and inpatient treatment settings. To improve the drug supply for these patients, it is necessary to introduce a unified methodology for calculating the planned need for drugs and oblige the subjects to provide patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with drugs at the expense of the budgets of the subjects.

Generalized Analytical Solutions of Vertically Fractured Wells in Commingled Reservoirs: Field Case Study
Authors: Wei Cao , Li Haitao , Luo Hongwen , Li Ying , Cheng Shiqing
Published: December 2023

Accurate identification of the individual-layer parameters for vertically fractured wells in commingled reservoirs is essential for development plan design, reservoir numerical simulation, and stimulation measure selection. Different semi-analytical and numerical models are generally applied in multilayer transient testing (MLT) analysis to determine the properties of individual layer. However, these approaches require numerous computations and are complicated to program due to the fracture and reservoir discretization. This work thus presents the generalized analytical solutions of vertically fractured wells in infinite, closed, or constant-pressure commingled reservoirs with both computational and functional simplicity. The fully analytical solutions are derived based on the early-time approximate solutions of infinite-conductivity fracture and trilinear flow models, infinite-conductivity fracture solutions, pressure superposition principle, and Duhamel principle. A systematic verification by employing a standardized well testing software and trilinear flow model is conducted to ensure the general application accuracy of the presented solutions. The results show that the developed analytical solutions are valid when the dimensionless fracture conductivity is more than 2 (FcD > 2) with an average absolute percent deviation (AAD) of ~2% for pressure and that is ~4% for pressure derivative. The developed analytical solutions also exhibit improvements in early-time pressure and derivative calculation. Finally, a field case of a four-layer fractured well is interpreted by the developed solutions and well testing software to illustrate the feasibility. The interpretation results of two methods are nearly identical, with only a minor difference. The developed analytical solutions are computationally accurate while maintaining functional simplicity and can be considered as an alternative to the current semi-analytical and numerical approaches in MLT analysis.

Published: December 2023

Optical frequency comb underpins a wide range of applications from communication, metrology, to sensing. Its development on a chip-scale platform -- so called soliton microcomb -- provides a promising path towards system miniaturization and functionality integration via photonic integrated circuit (PIC) technology. Although extensively explored in recent years, challenges remain in key aspects of microcomb such as complex soliton initialization, high threshold, low power efficiency, and limited comb reconfigurability. Here we present an on-chip laser that directly outputs microcomb and resolves all these challenges, with a distinctive mechanism created from synergetic interaction among resonant electro-optic effect, optical Kerr effect, and optical gain inside the laser cavity. Realized with integration between a III-V gain chip and a thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) PIC, the laser is able to directly emit mode-locked microcomb on demand with robust turnkey operation inherently built in, with individual comb linewidth down to 600 Hz, whole-comb frequency tuning rate exceeding 2.4×1017 Hz/s, and 100% utilization of optical power fully contributing to comb generation. The demonstrated approach unifies architecture and operation simplicity, high-speed reconfigurability, and multifunctional capability enabled by TFLN PIC, opening up a great avenue towards on-demand generation of mode-locked microcomb that is expected to have profound impact on broad applications.

Published: December 2023

The use of waste polyethylene (WPE) in modified asphalt is frequently employed to reduce environmental pollution and improve asphalt properties. However, research has shown that using WPE alone as a modifier does not effectively enhance the low-temperature flexibility of asphalt. This study aims to investigate the potential of utilizing WPE and waste cooking oil (WCO) as composite modifiers to enhance the properties of virgin asphalt under both high and low-temperature conditions. The contents of WPE and WCO used, and the preparation process for the modified asphalt were optimized through an orthogonal experiment. The test results indicate that the optimal comprehensive properties of WPE/WCO composite modified asphalt (WPE/WCO-A) is attained when the mass ratio of WPE and WCO was 8% and 1% of virgin asphalt, respectively, and after a maintenance process at a temperature of 140 ℃ and a duration of 2 h. Dynamic shear rheometer (DSR) results reveal that WPE/WCO composite modifier can greatly improve the high-temperature deformation resistance of asphalt. Bending beam rheometer (BBR) tests confirm that WPE adversely affects the low-temperature flexibility of asphalt, while the addition of WCO can improve it. WPE/WCP-A has even better low-temperature properties than VA. The Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) results suggest that physical action is the main method of modification for WPE/WCO-A. Furthermore, the fluorescence microscopy test results demonstrate that WCO can promote WPE swelling in asphalt. This study offers a novel approach to improving the comprehensive properties of asphalt through composite modification using WPE and WCO.
Zoning the risk of transporting phytoplankton blooms from multiple reservoirs to the primary drinking water intake in Uruguay

Cyanobacterial blooms pose potential health and economic risks when they reach drinking water intakes. In basins with intensive agricultural production, there are numerous small and medium-sized (0.25-60 ha) productive freshwater reservoirs. These reservoirs create favorable conditions for the excessive growth of phytoplankton, which can be transported downstream after heavy rainfall events. These environments have been identified as potential sources of cyanobacterial inoculum in Uruguay's main drinking water intake, located in the Santa Lucía River Basin. To pinpoint areas with the highest risk of cyanobacterial biomass export, this study integrated chlorophyll-a concentration monitoring in 325 reservoirs using Sentinel-2 satellite images, along with meteorological and structural information from the reservoirs. An Export Index (EI) for biomass was developed, and spatial distribution patterns were explored through geostatistical and multivariate analyses. According to the EI, the western and southern zones, characterized by intensive agricultural land uses such as dairy farming and horticulture, were the most at risk for biomass export. Conversely, the northeastern zone exhibited the lowest risk, aligning with extensive cattle ranching practices associated with low nutrient export to aquatic systems. This study marks the initial effort to assess the risk of transporting cyanobacterial inoculum from numerous reservoirs to Uruguay's primary drinking water intake, providing valuable input for the development of early warning systems for the occurrences of cyanobacterial blooms.

Molecular recognition usually adopts the molecular spectra library matching or the simulation-based ‘trial-and-error’ strategies. However, these two methods are largely limited by the low coverage rate, high construction cost and the time-consuming process. Here we developed TranSpec, a deep learning model based on the convolutional neural networks and multi-head attention mechanism, to directly ‘translate’ the molecular vibrational spectra into the simplified molecular input line entry system (SMILES) representations. Taking the QM9S dataset that includes the quantum chemistry simulated spectra of 130K molecules as the benchmark, we have demonstrated the greedy search (generating only one SMILES) can precisely identify 90%-100% functional groups, and provide about 60% correct SMILES based on the infrared (IR) or Raman spectra. To enhance the translation accuracy, we proposed several strategies such as leveraging the packed IR and Raman spectra as input, employing threshold search to generate more SMILES candidates, and filtering with the molecular mass. Finally, we demonstrated that TranSpec has good transferability through translation experimental infrared spectra and found that threshold searches (generating top 1 and top 10 SMILES candidates) correctly identified 21.8% and 55.9% of the molecules, respectively. The proposed TranSpec realized the direct interpretation of molecule spectra and paved a promising way to achieve fast and real-time molecular recognition.

Continuous cropping (CC) can trigger drastic variations in the microenvironment of farmland soil, resulting in the development of persistent soil-borne diseases. However, the integrated influences of long-term CC on the abiotic and biotic factors of the strawberry soil have not been sufficiently characterized. In this study, variations in physico-chemical characteristics, enzymatic activities, phenolic acids and microorganisms were investigated in long-term strawberry CC soil. The results demonstrated a continuous decrease in soil pH and a first increase and then decrease in soil enzyme activities. Additionally, phenolic acid concentrations were found to accumulate. CC for 15 and 18 years resulted in a significant decrease microbial diversity, relative abundance, and the ratio of bacteria to fungi in soil. Specifically, bacterial Bacillus (Top2 genus) increased considerably in the two and five years, while fungal Fusarium (Top2 genus) decreased in the fifteen and eighteen years. Moreover, the structural equation model (SEM) provided a comprehensive insight into the effects of strawberry CC on soil conditions. The SEM revealed that the standardized regression coefficients of CC on enzyme activity, phenolic acid, bacterial and fungal communities were 0.86, 0.95, -0.39, and 0.17, respectively. In conclusion, the findings contribute to a deeper knowledge of the challenges posed by CC and provide insights for future research and agricultural management practices.
Using unfolding case studies to develop critical thinking for Graduate Entry Nursing students: An educational design research study

Published: December 2023

Background: Graduate Entry Nursing (GEN) programmes have been introduced as another entry point to nurse registration. In the development of a new GEN programme, a problem-based approach to learning was used to develop critical thinking and clinical reasoning skills of motivated and academically capable students.
Objective: This article reports on the experiences of both students and teaching staff of using unfolding case studies.
Methods: An educational design research approach was used to explore the learning experiences of GEN students using an unfolding case study approach situated in experiential pedagogy and the teaching experiences of the academics who designed it. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with students once they had finished the course and weekly reflective diary recordings by academic staff throughout implementation. Thematic analysis was used to analyse the data.
Findings: Student reflections highlighted that this cohort had insight into how they learned and were comfortable voicing their needs to academic staff. While the unfolding case studies were not liked by all participants, for some it offered a unique learning opportunity; particularly when scaffolded with podcasts, simulation labs, tutorials and clinical placements. Staff reflections primarily aligned with student experiences.
Conclusion: The gaps highlighted in the delivery of the course suggest that a blended pedagogical approach to graduate entry nurse education is required. Specifically, GEN students are aware of the learning needs and are happy to express these to academic staff, thus suggesting that engaging with a co-design curriculum approach will benefit future cohorts.
