Authors: Ul-Abidden Zain , Ali Raja Hashim , Zeeshan Ali Ijaz , Khan Talha Ali
Published: October 2024

Stock market prediction is an interesting and complex problem that has recently been in the limelight, thanks to the significant accuracy achieved by deep learning models. However, a complete platform with prediction and risk analysis ability is unavailable. In the current work, we present a novel framework for investment analysis designed to create ease for investors and provide a confidence measure along with the stock price to depict the risk involved in investing in stocks of a particular company. The model integrates two different approaches successfully to improve accuracy significantly. The model inputs two sources – a stock price dataset depicting the original scores as numerals and textual data extracted from Reddit news articles. The traditional problem of stock price prediction is dealt with using LSTMs on individual stock prices. At the same time, the confidence is represented by a risk value calculated intelligently using XGBoost and LSTM output. We have deployed natural language processing techniques for performing sentiment and subjectivity analyses, which are then used to extract features for further investigation in the study. The results show that an accuracy of 94% for stock trend prediction can be achieved using PCA as the feature extractor with tuned parameters for XGBoost and around 76% accuracy for stock price prediction with a tuned LSTM. It removes the hassle for investors to research the project or company they want to invest in and provides all relevant analysis and data.
(Neo)Determinismo y reducción explicativa en investigaciones epigenéticas en torno a lo humano y sus implicancias biopolíticas
Authors: Stefanini Manuel Ignacio , Tropea Ana Liza , Lavagnino Nicolás José
Published: October 2024

La epigenética como campo disciplinar de consolidación reciente, al estudiar lo humano trajo consigo promesas de superación del determinismo y la reducción explicativa propios de la corriente gen-centrista de la genética. Sin embargo, al analizar las características epistemológicas del abordaje epigenético de lo humano, dichas promesas parecen no haberse cumplido. El borramiento del límite naturaleza/crianza habilita un tipo particular de determinismo cuyo alcance en términos biopolíticos se inscribe en el control de los comportamientos posibles. Se profundiza así el grado de intervención de la vida humana, al mismo tiempo que se actualizan aquellos tipos de normalización biopolítica legitimados desde la genética a lo largo del siglo XX.

Authors: Gebrekidan Tesfaye Hailu , Chebo Abdella Kosa
Published: October 2024

Small-scale businesses have long been recognized as an important part of economic development and integrating them with industrial parks is both recommended and necessary for long-term success. In line of this, the objective of this study was to investigate the role of IPs entrepreneurial ecosystem in boosting the capabilities of small businesses. Data were collected from 245 small manufacturing business owners via simple random sampling and analysed using multivariate regression analysis. Thus, the ability of small enterprises is positively impacted by the presence of a more robust and appropriate entrepreneurial ecosystem. Similarly, a firm’s resource capabilities are more impacted by the entrepreneurial ecosystem when there is a better link between academia and industry. Furthermore, entrepreneurial skills are found to play a mediating role between the entrepreneurial ecosystem and firms’ technological capabilities. Another finding revealed that managerial expertise significantly mediates entrepreneurial ecosystems and firms’ resource capabilities. This finding suggested that the policymakers, better to formulate policies that encourages small businesses to engage in the industrial parks which results in an inclusive firm’s performance.

The well-being of society can be realized through meeting basic needs, one of which is providing public infrastructure. This study examines the role of Natural Resource Revenue Sharing Funds (DBH SDA) on government investment in infrastructure in 491 regencies/cities in Indonesia. The testing in this research uses panel data regression analysis. The results show that per capita DBH SDA in Indonesia during the study period of 2010–2012 has a significant and positive influence on government investment in infrastructure. The selection of this period is based on the consideration that a resources boom has occurred, where there is an increased global demand for natural resource commodities followed by an increase in commodity prices, thereby positively impacting revenue for countries or regions abundant in natural resources. Despite DBH SDA having a significant and positive influence, regional spending on infrastructure tends to be more influenced by central government transfers such as General Allocation Fund (DAU), Special Allocation Fund (DAK), and Local Own-source Revenue (PAD). It was found that government investment in infrastructure tends to be influenced by transfer funds, indicating that the role of the central government remains significant in determining the infrastructure expenditure of regencies/cities in Indonesia.

Authors: Iqbal Muhammad T. , Suharyanto Agus , Anwar Muhammad R. , Devia Yatnanta Padma
Published: October 2024

The run-off coefficients provide vital hydrological data used for river discharge forecasts and flood risk management. Selecting an appropriate method to determine this coefficient is essential for accurately estimating peak discharge. This study compared the effectiveness of the Hassing, Cook, and U.S. Forest Service methods integrating GIS in estimating run-off coefficients in the Lesti River catchment area from 2013 to 2019. The findings revealed that the run-off coefficient was determined to be 0.188–0.243 using the U.S. Forest Service method, 0.194–0.213 using the Hassing method, and 0.466–0.480 using the Cook method. These results showed a rapid increase in the run-off coefficient within the Lesti River catchment area, signifying a heightened susceptibility to flooding. This is particularly concerning as the Lesti River is a primary tributary to the Brantas River. The comparison of estimated versus observed peak discharge emphasised the superiority of the runoff coefficient associated with the Hassing method over alternative methodologies when utilised as input data for peak discharge estimation. This was evident by the notable measurement error values of 11% for MAPE and 0.58 for MAE. The Hassing method emerged as the most appropriate and reliable for reflecting run-off characteristics in the Lesti River catchment area. Additionally, it proved to be the most accurate for estimating run-off coefficients in the Nakayasu process for peak discharge estimation. Consequently, applying the Hassing method offers a viable strategy for effectively mitigating flood risks in the Lesti catchment area.

Published: October 2024

The paper presents the possibilities of energy management of residues from the cultivation of grapes of the ‘Regent’, ‘Rondo’ and ‘Seyval Blanc’ cultivars. The research was conducted in southeastern Poland in the Sandomierska Upland in 2022. The aim of the research was to demonstrate the influence of grape variety on yield capacity in relation to the extraction of biomass residues in the form of leaves. An attempt was made to identify the variety that is characterised by obtaining the most effective and average parameters, i.e. yield size and quality, leaf mass and surface area, and their impact on energy and fuel parameters. The study analysed the following crop parameters, i.e. number and mass of grapes, number and mass of berries; leaf quality parameters, i.e. mass including petioles and area. An energy assessment in Laboratory in Department of Power Engineering and Transportation was carried out by performing proximate and ultimate analysis and estimating emission factors and volumetric composition of exhaust gas. The study showed that the material with the highest energy potential was characterised by ‘Regent’, while the lowest potential was shown for ‘Rondo’. Grapevines of the ‘Rondo’ cultivar were characterised by the highest obtained biomass among the evaluated varieties. The research showed that the most effective in practical cultivation is the use of the Regent variety, which was characterised by the average parameters of the obtained yield and growth values, and the highest fuel energy potential.

Published: October 2024

The article presents the scientific results of a study assessing agroclimatic resources in agricultural landscapes located in various natural zones of the Turkestan region of the RK (Republic of Kazakhstan). The research methods included classical and modern methods of mathematical statistics using digital technology and time series graphs to develop a mathematical model for climatic and hydrological indicators. Assessment of changes in indicators of agroclimatic resources in agricultural landscapes for 1941–2020 showed that the sum of air temperature, evaporation from the water surface and radiation balance of the daytime surface, characterising the energy resources of landscapes, increased by 10–15%, which contributes to increase in the total water consumption of agricultural land by 10–12%. Meanwhile, the decreasing tendency of the amount of precipitation by 5–10% in all natural climatic zones of the region has become one of the factors leading to a decrease in the natural moisture supply of the soil and vegetation cover of landscapes by 10–15%, acting as important environment-forming and ecological functions. The combined impact of these environment-forming factors has become the key reason for the increase in the deficit of agricultural land water consumption by 15–20%, the reduction of solar energy costs for the soil-forming process by 10–15% and the increase of the climate aridisation, and has become a signal for the need in the safety of agricultural activities, requiring the development of a set of adaptive measures to mitigate this process in the region.

Authors: Jakóbiak Agnieszka , Patrzałek Wanda , Aslanoğlu Rengin
Published: October 2024

Green spaces are integral to urban landscape, serving ecological, health, and recreational functions. During the pandemic, urban green spaces were crucial for enabling safe social distancing and enhancing well-being. This study delves into the perception, accessibilities, and qualities of urban green spaces in Wrocław during and after the pandemic. A survey was conducted to understand causes and effects of diverse usage of the urban green space, assessing changes in usage frequency before, during, and after lockdown, as well as public awareness of benefits associated with green spaces. Proximity to green spaces emerges as a key factor as people prefer easily and quick access to these areas. The study also noted a partial modification of social behaviour and increased social and ecological awareness. The results reveal evident development of new daily habits. Although the beginning of the pandemic led to discomfort, adaptive behaviours soon followed, changing daily routines and previous leisure activities. Given the findings on availability and adequacy of green spaces, it is advisable to rearrange these areas to meet the diverse needs of inhabitants.
Integrated uses of organic and inorganic fertilisers to increase sesame productivity on coastal sand fields
Authors: Nurhayati Dewi Ratna , Taryono Taryono , Hanudin Eko
Published: October 2024

Sesame is recognised as a valuable oil plant with potential health benefits due to its disease mitigating properties. It shows exceptional growth rates in light soil types, such as sandy beach soils which are often deemed infertile. To address the issue, it is necessary to apply eco-friendly fertilisers derived from animal manure. Consequently, research has focused on performance evaluation over two growing seasons, namely the dry and rainy seasons, on coastal sandy soils. Employing a split-plot design across three replicates, the study investigated the influence of planting time and cultivar on the growth and yield of sesame. The study aimed to assess the impact of mixed fertiliser application timing on sesame growth and yield, focusing on both quantitative and qualitative parameters across the rainy and dry seasons. Results indicated that applying a mixture comprising chicken manure and inorganic fertiliser at the planting time significantly affected several growth parameters. These included plant height, chlorophyll content, flowering time, number of branches, net assimilation rate, root volume, and total sesame oil content, particularly in the dry season. Specifically, employing a dosage of 24.75 g of inorganic NPK fertiliser, comprising 1.45 g of nitrogen, 0.74 g of phosphorus, and 1.25 g of potassium per plant at planting time during the dry season, demonstrated the most favourable outcomes in terms of growth, yield components, and soil fertility. This approach also yielded a remarkable 54.51% oil content in the cultivar ‘Sbr-1’.

Published: October 2024

The influence of dietary fishmeal (FM) replacement with a mixture (1:1) of spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) and a brown seaweed (Sargassum ilicifolium) in Asian seabass (Lates calcarifer, 45.0 ± 0.2) performance was evaluated. Dietary FM was replaced with the algal mixture at 5 (MIX5%) and 10% (MIX10%) and a diet without algal mixture served as control group. One hundred and thirty five L. calcarifer juveniles were stocked into nine 300-L circular containers (15 fish/tank) filled with seawater (salinity = 46.0 ± 0.2 g L-1; temperature = 31.5 ± 2.5 °C) with 80% daily water exchange rate. Each dietary treatment was conducted in triplicate. The experimental feeds were offered to fish thrice daily up to satiation for 60 days. Fish in MIX5% group had the highest weight gain (Ca. 12%) that was associated with higher feed intake compare to the control. Viscerosomatic index reduced in fish fed MIX10% diet compared to control group (8.6 vs. 7.6%). Amylase, alkaline phosphatase, total protease and trypsin activities significantly increased in fish fed MIX5% group (P < 0.05). Liver superoxide dismutase activity (36.1 U/ mg protein) and glutathione (33.3 µmol / g tissue) level increased in fish fed MIX5% diet. MIX5% group had higher white blood cell counts than other groups. Plasma cholesterol decreased (Ca. 20 mg / dL) but plasma calcium content increased in fish fed algal mix-supplemented diets (P < 0.05). Plasma triglycerides, total protein, globulin, and alkaline phosphatase decreased in fish fed MIX10% diet. Based on the above-mentioned findings, dietary FM replacement with micro and macroalgae mixture at 5% is recommended for growth and improving health status in L. calcarifer juveniles.

Published: October 2024

A trial was conducted to evaluate the addition of phytase B (PhyB) to a diet for laying hens. In the feeding trial with laying hens, three feeds were tested: a negative control diet (group I) without the addition of monocalcium phosphate, a negative control group with the addition of 0.05% (6575 AcPU/kg) phytase B (group II) and a positive control diet with recommended levels of calcium and phosphorus (group III). The experiment was carried out on 36 hens of the Bovans Brown variety, 12 animals were assigned to each test group. During the experiment, the number and weight of eggs laid by each hen, individual changes in the body mass of birds, and feed consumption were registered. From the 50th to the 54th day of the experiment, the amounts of the feed ingested and the expelled excrements were measured in order to determine the retention of calcium and phosphorus. In order to examine the effect of diet on egg quality, 36 eggs from each study group were randomly selected for analysis. The research included measurements of physical and morphological parameters determining the quality of egg albumen, yolks and egg shells. Phytase B added to the feed for laying hens did not significantly affect feed conversion and feed consumption per egg but significantly increased the daily feed intake. Hens that consumed phytase B showed higher egg production indicators, including the number of eggs, the mean egg weight, and daily egg mass, as compared to hens from the negative control group (I). The addition of phytase B allowed to obtain similar calcium and phosphorus retention as in hens fed the positive control group diet (III) and showed reduced amounts of phosphorus in the manure. There were also significant positive effects of the addition of phytase B on the color intensity of the yolk and quality of eggshell by increasing its mass, density, and strength.
Trade war or currency war? How do import duties translate into the RMB/USD exchange rate?

Published: October 2024

The global order has been dominated by the two economic superpowers: the United States and China. This article attempts to identify the implications of the trade policy followed by the Group of Two1 (G2) for the USD/RMB exchange rate. In this quantitative study, we first estimate models considering only the tariff declarations between the two countries, where a pronouncement on the imposition of tariffs is made. In the following step, in addition to the statements, we also consider determinant variables or variables that influence the fluctuations in the Chinese currency exchange rate, namely, the exchange rate from previous days (t-1 and t-2). Research shows that the beginning of the trade war between the United States and China influenced the depreciation of the latter’s currency. The effect of US declarations on the exchange rate is clearer than the impact of China’s declarations and retaliations, although the estimated models also reveal some impact of Chinese actions.

The Iraqi Organization for Conservation of Nature (IOCN) continuously conducts field surveys targeting key biodiversity areas within Iraq to discover the environmental conditions with more focus on the threatened species and their habitats. Two new bird species for Iraq were recorded during two of the ongoing field surveys conducted by IOCN, namely in the Khour Az-Zubair tidal mudflats in September 2022 and the Al-Najaf Desert in February 2023. Among the considerable list of the birds (and other fauna species) that have been observed, two bird species have been considered quite important: Amur falcon (Falco amurensis) and lappet-faced (or Arabian) vulture, Torgos tracheliotos negevensis]. Both of these observations have been carefully described and documented. Referring to the literature on the avifauna of Iraq, none of these bird species have already been considered Iraqi species and, subsequently, have been added to the list of avifauna of Iraq.

Authors: Oliveira Ricardo A. , S. Silva Ana Luísa , P. Ramos Joana , S. Pereira Maria Luísa
Published: October 2024

The concerns for environmental impact due to the agricultural industry are increasing. One example is the waste associated with the removal of the chestnut shells for this fruit’s preservation and selling. On the other hand, the search for biological alternatives to chemical products is increasing, as environmental-friendly options are a must for brands. This work proposes the development of a bio phenol formaldehyde resin, substituting 40 % of the phenol for bio-oil obtained via pyrolysis of the chestnut shells. The product, Resinut, has the potential to have the same properties as a traditional PF resin.

The OBJECTIVE was to improve the results of surgical treatment of morbid obesity by reducing the frequency of postoperative complications.

METHODS AND MATERIALS. The research is based on the studying the results of surgical treatment of 149 morbidly obese patients. The patients were divided into retrospective (49 patients) and prospective (100 patients) groups.

RESULTS. Among the patients of the retrospective group (n=49), a statistical analysis of the effectiveness of using various scales and indices for predicting the risk of complications of bariatric interventions was carried out. The analysis revealed the low efficiency of currently available tools for predicting the risk of complications in this category of patients. The totality of prognostically important factors and their ratings were integrated into the original «Individual Risk Assessment Scale for Bariatric Surgery». The results obtained during the study made it possible to integrate the developed tactics of preoperative examination and preparation for surgical intervention in morbidly obese patients into a practical algorithm. Application of the developed tools for predicting the risk of complications in bariatric surgeries allowed to reduce the complication rate from 12.2 % to 2.0 %, and the mortality rate from 2.0 % to 0 %.

CONCLUSION. The use of the developed tools for predicting the risk of complications of bariatric surgery improves results by reducing the frequency of complications in the early postoperative period, which in turn expands the capabilities of using metabolic surgery for patients at high surgical risk, including those over 60 years of old.

The OBJECTIVE was to develop a diagnostic algorithm in oncologic patients with pulmonary hemorrhage.

METHODS AND MATERIAL. A retrospective single-center study of the medical records of 258 patients who met the inclusion criteria was conducted. Inclusion criteria: age over 18 years, oncologic disease of the chest organs complicated by pulmonary hemorrhage. Inclusion criteria: age over 18 years, oncologic disease of the chest organs complicated by pulmonary hemorrhage. Exclusion criteria: age under 18 years, pulmonary hemorrhage of non-oncologic etiology. Pulmonary hemorrhage was considered to be the discharge of any volume of fresh blood or clots from the tracheobronchial tree, which was determined on the basis of anamnesis, clinical manifestations in the hospital, endoscopic examination. Routine diagnostic methods of investigation, such as chest radiography, chest computed tomography (including with contrast enhancement), fibrotracheobronchoscopy, bronchial arteriography were evaluated.

RESULTS. The sensitivity for diagnosing the oncologic process in chest radiography, computed tomography, and fibrotracheobronchoscopy, was 84.7 %, 98.4 %, and 94.4 %, respectively. The sensitivity of fibrotracheobronchoscopy to detect the bleeding itself in oncologic patients reached 31.3 %, and the sensitivity of bronchial arteriography to diagnose the source of bleeding was 87.7 %.

CONCLUSION. In pulmonary hemorrhage of oncologic genesis, the combination of fibrotracheobronchoscopy with computed tomography has sensitivity in 100 % of cases in determining the source and localization of the pathological process. Bronchial arteriography allows to perform endovascular hemostasis. It is necessary to conduct multicenter studies in order to develop and implement a unified algorithm assessing all etiopathogenetic features of pulmonary hemorrhage in oncologic patients.

Se realizó un estudio descriptivo con 166 personas cuya consulta ambulatoria se hacía en el Centro de Atención Básica (CAB) La Selva, Cali, Colombia, para determinar el efecto en el funcionamiento de la familia nuclear cuando se convive con la familia extensa. Se entrevistaron 103 (62.1%) mujeres y 63 (37.9%) hombres, con una edad promedio de 35.7±15.4 años, que pertenecían en 27.7% al nivel socioeconómico bajo (estratos 1, 2); en 66.3%, al nivel medio ( estratos 3, 4) y en 6.0%, al nivel alto ( estratos 5, 6). la disfunción familiar se observó en 40.3% de los casos, asociada principalmente con el hecho de convivir con más de 9 personas (OR= 1.60, ic 95% 1.24-2.05, p <0.3), o con la presencia de la nuera en el nicho familiar (OR= 3.11, ic 95% /.69-5. 70, p <0.005). El soporte social proporcionado por los amigos se percibió como malo en 35% de los caso y a su vez éste se asoció con disfunción familiar (OR= 3.58, ic 95% 1.77-7.23, p <0.0001). Este hecho, sostiene el concepto que el riesgo psicosocial es resultante de los estresores y del soporte social con que cuenta la familia. En este estudio se vio cómo la disfunción familiar fue 4 veces más frecuente cuando se convive con un gran número de miembros de la familia extensa y ésta carece de unos adecuados recursos de apoyo social.

ACÚMULO DE CAPITAIS COMO DISTINÇÃO DENTRO DE FANDOMS ORGANIZADOS: UMA BUSCA PELA RETOMADA DOS CONCEITOS DE BOURDIEU E FISKE
Authors: Pontes Enoe Lopes
Published: October 2024

A partir de reflexões teóricas, partimos dos conceitos de Acúmulos de Capitais, para compreender como as distinções funcionam nas hierarquias e construções discursivas dentro de comunidades de fãs. Partindo de um exercício de uma disciplina voltada para o filósofo Pierre Bourdieu, reunimos pontuações de Fiske (1992), para conectar os atravessamentos entre o que foi criado por Bourdieu, com o que foi apropriado por Fiske, para analisar fandoms. O presente artigo visa abordar questões constitutivas sobre fãs de produções midiáticas ficcionais, buscando descobrir quais são os elementos que colocam estes indivíduos como figuras centrais entre seus pares. Além disso, procuraremos utilizar o conceito de Comunidades Interpretativas, de Stanley Fish (1992), bem como os questionamentos e inquietações de Regina Zilberman (1989) sobre as possíveis lideranças conquistadas para o estabelecimento de certas interpretações, criando uma construção coletiva de Recepção. Em uma ação de comparar o estado da arte com exemplificações do universo de comunidades de fãs, a nossa hipótese é de que para além do fato de que fãs que acumulam determinados tipos de capitais e, por esta razão, passam a ocupar Posições de Poder dentro dos fandoms, o Espalhamento midiático (Jenkins et al., 2013) e a expansão do uso das redes sociais, organizou e segmentou ainda mais estas inferências de disputas de poder.

This field and laboratory guide describes the field and laboratory methods used to characterize blue carbon in seagrass meadows. It was developed for the Caribbean Carbon Accounting in Seagrass project and describes the protocols and methods used by the network. In brief, at each project site, seagrass abundance, species composition, canopy height, and sediment type were assessed at sixteen 0.25 m2 quadrats placed at random locations within the site. Eight 20 cm diameter cores were taken to assess seagrass biomass, shoot density, and to provide the material for assessing seagrass carbon and nutrient content. All seagrasses within each of the eight cores were separated by species and tissue type, washed and scraped to remove epiphytes, then dried and weighed. A piston core of uncompressed soils was retrieved, to a depth of 1 m or until refusal. Cores were subsampled at 5 cm depth intervals using small subcorers. All subcores were weighed wet to permit the calculation of porosity and soil dry bulk density. Seagrass tissue and sediment samples were oven-dried at 60°C, and dry weight recorded. Finally, samples were analyzed in the laboratory for determination of Loss on Ignition, total carbon content, inorganic carbon content, organic carbon content, and carbon and nitrogen content as well as stable isotope ratios. The resulting data allow for the estimation of seagrass organic carbon stocks as well as nutrient and carbonate stocks in biomass and sediment, their relationship with environmental covariates, and the contribution of seagrass material to carbon stocks.

Objetivo: Identificar abordagens e eficácia da Inteligência Artificial (IA) na predição de fatores de risco para sepse neonatal. Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa, realizada nas bases de dados PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science e IEEE, por meio dos seguintes descritores: “neonatal sepsis”, “intensive care units, neonatal”, “artificial intelligence”, “machine learning” e “deep learning”. Foram incluídos estudos publicados entre 2014 a 2024 que incluíam sepse neonatal em unidades de terapia intensiva. Resultados: A amostra final consistiu em 06 artigos, com uma concentração mais elevada de publicações em 2021. A maioria dos estudos foi conduzida no EUA, e os designs de pesquisa predominantes foram estudos de coorte retrospectivo. Verificou-se que os modelos de IA, como Random Forest, SVM e Regressão Logística, são eficazes na predição de fatores de risco críticos para sepse neonatal, permitindo intervenções clínicas mais precoces e precisas, o que pode melhorar significativamente os desfechos clínicos em neonatos vulneráveis. Considerações finais: Esta revisão destaca o impacto dos modelos de IA na predição de sepse neonatal, mostrando seu potencial para intervenções clínicas antecipadas. No entanto, futuras pesquisas devem focar na validação externa e na integração cuidadosa desses modelos na prática clínica.

Background:

Residual intracranial aneurysms post-clipping or coiling pose a poorly established risk of rupture. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) offers insights into hemodynamic changes following such interventions. This study aims to assess hemodynamic parameters in residual aneurysms pre- and post-treatment with surgical clips or coils using CFD.

Methods:

A retrospective analysis of consecutive patients between January 2015 and January 2024 was conducted. Digital subtraction angiography images were reconstructed using 3D modeling techniques, and hemodynamic parameters were analyzed with ANSYS® software.

Results:

Six aneurysms were analyzed: Five unruptured and one ruptured. The aneurysms were located at the basilar apex (2), middle cerebral artery bifurcation (2), and origin of the posterior communicating artery (2). Post-treatment, there was a significant reduction in both aneurysm area (median reduction of 33.73%) and volume (median reduction of 25.3%). Five of the six cases demonstrated fewer low wall shear stress (WSS) areas, which could indicate a reduction in regions prone to thrombus formation and diminished risk of rupture. In the unruptured aneurysms, there was a median increase of 137.6% in average WSS. Notably, the only case with increased low WSS area also had the highest increase in average WSS. One basilar artery aneurysm showed increased WSS across all parameters, suggesting a higher rupture risk.

Conclusion:

The increase in average and high WSS area, along with a decrease in low WSS area, reflects a complex balance between factors of stability and rupture risk. However, a simultaneous increase in all WSS parameters may represent the highest rupture risk due to increased mechanical stress on the aneurysm wall, necessitating closer monitoring.

This paper presents the results of studies of the aquatic ecosystem components of the lower reaches of the Vychegda River. During 2022 growing season we found 234 species of various microalgae belonging to 8 departments. The phytoplankton community is diatom-green with small forms of organisms from other departments. 45 taxonomic units represented the zooplankton community over the entire period of research. We identified 20 taxa of Cladocera, 11 taxa of Copepoda, and 14 taxa of Rotatoria. Widespread Palearctic organisms formed the community. According to the results of control catches, six species of fish were identified: roach, perch, bream, ruff, silver bream and walleye. Perch and roach dominated the catches (87.7% of the catch). Material on 150 larvae and fry of bleak and ruff was obtained. The coefficient of feed utilization (KE) for phytoplankton averaged 0.033, for zooplankton – 0.11. The coefficient of assimilated food by zooplankton (K3) corresponded to an average of 0.348 (34.8%), the same indicator for planktonophagous fish was not above 0.3 (30%). The feeding coefficients of phytoplankton and zooplankton for the lower reaches of the Vychegda River averaged 30 and 9, respectively. Thus, the obtained feeding coefficients in 2022 growing season are close to the zonal ones for the Northern Fisheries Basin. The research results can be used to develop measures for the conservation of aquatic biological resources and their habitat.

We analyze the distribution of potentially toxigenic cyanobacteria in water bodies and rivers of the East European (Russian) Plain on the basis of relevant literature and the results of our studies. Special attention is paid to cyanotoxins: microcystins, which are hepatotoxins, cylindrospermopsin, which is hepatotoxin and cytotoxin, and anatoxins and saxi-toxins, which are neurotoxins. Microcystis and Dolichospermum are the most represented genera of potentially toxigenic cyanobacteria, as well as Aphanizomenon flos-aquae Ralfs ex Bornet & Flahault and Planktothrix agardhii (Gomont) Anagnostidis & Komárek species. The above are the most commonly found in water bodies of the study area. The presence of potentially toxigenic cyanobacteria in water bodies was confirmed by the results of phytoplankton studies using molecular genetic methods. The quantitative content of the dissolved in water and intracellular cyanotoxins was determined using enzyme immunoassay methods, high-performance liquid chromatography, and mass spectrometry. It was noted that microcystin- and anatoxin-a-producing cyanobacteria are the most common in most of the studied water bodies and streams, while saxitoxin- and cylindrospermopsin-producing cyanobacteria are less common. The total content of the dissolved microcystins in different water bodies varies from trace amounts up to 1670 μg/L with SanPiN 1.2.3685-21 standard for microcystin-LR 1 μg/L. The maximum recorded anatoxin-a content was 0.600 μg/L. The preparation of this review made it possible to supplement and summarize information on the distribution of toxigenic cyanobacteria and cyanotoxins in rivers, lakes and reservoirs of temperate latitudes, as well as on the quantitative content of cyanotoxins in water.
