Published: October 2023

We present CherrySet, a comprehensive dataset comprising observations of
three cherry trees throughout an entire vegetation period. This
publication is part of the For5G: Digital Twin project, where we aim to
develop an end-to-end pipeline for the creation of digital twins in
horticulture, from data acquisition up to end-user applications. For
this purpose, we have developed a methodology for precise scanning and
capturing of high-resolution image data of trees using UAV technology.
Now we are releasing the dataset and preliminary findings of the 2023
season to encourage fellow researchers to leverage the data for their
own research and contribute to the scientific community.

CherrySet encompasses a collection of 2D images covering three sweet
cherry trees at 12 distinct time points, spanning from dormancy in March
through blooming and growth until harvest in July 2023. In addition to
the image data, CherrySet offers manually recorded ground truth
information obtained from reference branches throughout the growing
season, which includes comprehensive bud, blossoms and fruit counts
during all vegetation phases, as well as the total number of cherries
gathered at harvest. The combination of visual and ground truth trait
data allows insights into intra-seasonal analysis of tree and fruit
development, providing valuable data for conventional or AI based
follow-up research.

We are committed to refining our image acquisition pipeline and intend
to provide corresponding data for these trees throughout the 2024
season. This expansion will open up opportunities for inter-seasonal
research.

Polski handel zagraniczny cukrem po akcesji Polski do Unii Europejskiej i reformie rynku cukru
Authors: Smoliński Paweł
Published: October 2023

Akcesja do UE wpłynęła bardzo korzystanie na wyniki polskiego handlu zagranicznego cukrem, znacznie poprawiając w latach 2005-2006 dodatnie saldo obrotów cukrem występujące przed integracją z UE. Było to w dużej mierze rezultatem stosowania refundacji wywozowych, wypłacanych przez Agencję Rynku Rolnego z budżetu UE. Jednakże od 2009 r. Polska ma ujemny bilans w handlu cukrem, gdyż krajowa produkcja kwotowa cukru nie zaspokaja popytu wewnętrznego.

Authors: Edelman Steve , Cheatham Wayman W. , Norton Anna , Close Kelly L.
Published: October 2023

Diabetes technology continues to evolve, advancing with our understanding of human biology and improving our ability to treat people with diabetes. Diabetes devices are broadly classified into the following categories: glucose sensors, insulin delivery devices, and digital health care technology (i.e., software and mobile applications). When supported by education and individually tailored, technology can play a key role in optimizing outcomes. Digital devices assist in diabetes management by tracking meals, exercise, sleep, and glycemic measurements in real time, all of which can guide physicians and other clinicians in their decision-making. Here, as people with diabetes and patient advocates, as well as diabetes specialists, primary care providers, and diabetes care and education specialists, we present our perspectives on the advances, benefits, and challenges of diabetes technology in primary care practices.

Objective: To examine the daily course of, and factors associated with, momentary fatigue after subarachnoid haemorrhage, and to explore subgroups of patients with distinct diurnal patterns of fatigue.
Design: Observational study using ecological momentary assessment.
Subjects: A total of 41 participants with subarachnoid haemorrhage.
Methods: Patients with fatigue were included within one year post-onset. Momentary fatigue (scale 1–7) was assessed with repeated measurements (10–11 times/day) during 7 consecutive days. Multilevel-mixed-model analyses and latent-class trajectory modelling were conducted.
Results: Mean (standard deviation; SD) age of the group was 53.9 (13.0) years, 56% female, and mean (SD) time post-subarachnoid haemorrhage onset was 9.3 (3.2) months. Mean (SD) momentary fatigue over all days was 3.22 (1.47). Fatigue increased significantly (p < 0.001) over the day, and experiencing more burden of fatigue and day type (working day vs weekend day) were significantly (p < 0.05) associated with higher momentary fatigue. Three subgroups could be distinguished based on diurnal patterns of fatigue. The largest group (n = 17, 41.5%) showed an increasing daily pattern of fatigue.
Conclusion: Momentary fatigue in patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage increases over the day, and diurnal patterns of fatigue differ between  participants. In addition to conventional measures, momentary measures of fatigue might provide valuable information for physicians to optimize personalized management of fatigue after subarachnoid haemorrhage.

Theoretical Prerequisites for the Formation of the “Political Picture of the World” Concept
Authors:   North-West Institute of Management of RANEPA, Ivanov Denis Yu.
Published: October 2023

The rapidly changing political world can hardly be described within the framework of state concepts and strate-gies. The search for new tools capable of explaining and analyzing foreign and domestic political processes reinforces the notion of the political picture of the world. The aim of the study is to fundamentally comprehend this concept. It is analyzed through the theoretical prism of the concepts of leading political philosophers of the XX century and modernity: the phenomenological method of E. Husserl and A. Schütz, the subjective space of politics by M. Heidegger, the political distinction between “friends” and “enemies” by K. Schmitt, the correlation of the categories “world picture” and “life world” by J. Habermas. The author ascertains that the task of forming an independent concept of the political picture of the world in political science has not been raised so far, and the term “political picture of the world” has not been definitively defined. Conclusion dwells upon its plural and dynamic character. Plurality is manifested in the subject-object and communicative reflection of pictures of the world. The dynamic nature can be expressed both in the collision of different political worldviews and in the conflict of their internal elements, which can eventually lead to the transformation of pictures of the world. Based on the analysis of the discourse of a number of scientific studies, the author’s formulation of the concept of “political picture of the world” is proffered.

Urban cartography and spatial politics: Ethnic tensions, westernization, and decolonization in Hangzhou’s transformation within the global south
Authors: Wu Yihao , Qiu Yikai , Wang Hong
Published: October 2023

Urban morphologies in the global south are shaped by a complex interplay of historical imprints, from colonial legacies and ethnic tensions to waves of modernization and decolonization efforts. This study delves into the urban morphology of Hangzhou during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, unraveling its transformative patterns steered by a convergence of spatial politics, economic forces, and cultural dynamics. Drawing upon a unique blend of historical map restoration techniques, we unearth pivotal morphological nuances that bridge Hangzhou’s transition from its pre-modern fabric to its modern-day urban layout. We uncover key shifts such as the movement from intricate street layouts to systematic grids, the strategic integration of public spaces like West Lakeside Park, and the city’s evolving urban epicenter mirroring its broader socio-political and economic narratives. These insights not only spotlight Hangzhou’s distinct urban journey in the context of ethnic conflicts, Western influences, and decolonization drives but also underscore the value of context-sensitive urban morphological research in the global south. Our findings emphasize the criticality of synergizing varied methodologies and theoretical perspectives to deepen our comprehension of urban transitions, sculpt place identities, and invigorate public imagination in global urban planning.

Authors: Mohsenzadeh Sasan , Farrashbandi Mojtaba Pourbagheri , Eshghi Saeed , Mahmoodilord Mohammad Sadegh , Mohsenzadeh Mahdi
Published: October 2023

Hydroponics is a modern agricultural system that enables year-round plant growth. Biochar, derived from apple tree waste, and humic acid were investigated as a replacement for the Hoagland nutrient solution to grow strawberries in a greenhouse with three replications. Growth parameters, such as leaf area, the average number of fruits per plant, maximum fruit weight, and the weight of fresh and dry fruits, were measured. A 50% increase in fresh and dry fruit weight was observed in plants grown using biochar compared to the control. Additionally, the use of Hoagland chemical fertilizer led to a 25% increase in both fresh and dry weight. There was a 65% increase in the number of fruits per plant in the biochar-grown sample compared to the control. Moreover, biochar fertilizer caused a 100% increase in maximum fruit weight compared to the control and a 27% increase compared to the Hoagland chemical fertilizer. Biochar had a higher pH compared to the Hoagland solution, and such pH levels were conducive to strawberry plant growth. The results indicate that biochar has the potential to enhance the size and weight of fruits. The findings of the study demonstrate that biochar, when combined with humic acid, is a successful organic hydroponic fertilizer that improves the quality and quantity of strawberries. Moreover, this approach enables the more efficient utilization of garden waste.

Large animal ventilator-integrated volumetric capnography generates clinically acceptable values of physiologic dead space in anesthetized healthy adult horses
Authors: Frampton Alycia , Floriano Dario , Simpson Keith , Hopster Klaus
Published: October 2023

OBJECTIVE

To evaluate the agreement between the Tafonius large animal ventilator-integrated volumetric capnography (vCap) software and the Respironics NICO noninvasive cardiac output monitor reference system.

ANIMALS

Data were collected from 56 healthy adult horses undergoing general anesthesia.

METHODS

Animals were placed under general anesthesia and connected to the Tafonius large animal ventilator circle system. A flow partitioning device with CO2 and flow sensors was utilized to couple the endotracheal tube to the NICO monitor. Tafonius CO2 and flow sensors are incorporated into the Y-piece of the breathing circuit. Arterial blood samples were collected to determine the partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PaCO2) immediately before data collection. The PaCO2 was input into the Tafonius and NICO monitor, and dead space ventilation (%Vd), end-tidal CO2 partial pressure (ETco2), mixed-expired CO2 partial pressure (Peco2), and expired tidal volume (Vt) were calculated over a single breath. Multiple measurements were completed for each patient, with a total of 200 paired data points collected for analysis. Data were assessed for normality, and Bland-Altman analysis was performed. Bias and 95% limits of agreement were calculated.

RESULTS

The limits of agreement for %Vd of the ventilator-derived measurements fell within ± 10% of the NICO monitor reference method.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Our results indicate that, when compared to the NICO monitor method, the Tafonius-integrated vCap software provides clinically acceptable values of Peco2, Vt, and %Vd in healthy adult horses.
Beyond the Big Five: How Dynamic Personality Traits Predict Financial Risk Tolerance?
Authors: Mukhtar Shakira , Jan Anisa , Zahoor Adil
Published: October 2023

The present study examines the impact of dynamic personality traits (emotions, financial self-efficacy, trait anger, resilience, and intolerance of uncertainty) on the financial risk tolerance of an investor. To that end, the study uses data collected from 486 stock market investors adopting a structured questionnaire, and the hypothesised relationships are evaluated through structural equation modelling. Results indicate that financial self-efficacy, positive emotion, and resilience improve the investor’s financial risk tolerance, whereas intolerance of uncertainty, trait anger, and negative emotions bear a negative influence on financial risk tolerance. These findings are novel to the financial risk tolerance literature and deepen our understanding of the precursors of risky investment behaviour. Further, this study entails several practical implications for financial advisors and wealth managers.
Does Gender Wage Gap Exist among Farm Workers in Nigeria? Evidence from Decomposition-Matching Analysis
Authors: Daudu Abdulrazaq K. , Kareem Oyedola W. , Olatinwo Latifat K. , Shuaib Suleiman B. , Abdulrahman Abdulganiyu I.
Published: October 2023

Using a cross-sectional survey data of agricultural farms, we investigate gender-based differences in farm wages among farm workers by randomly allocating farm workers into treatment (female) and control (male) groups with a simple random sampling technique. We used the Blinder–Oaxaca decomposition method to establish the gender wage gap and Propensity Score Matching to address assumptions and heterogeneity difficulties that plague the decomposition technique. Results show that female farm workers earn ₦ 9,170.83 less compared to their male counterparts, which indicates an unadjusted gender gap. This gender gap in farm wages is explained by the specific factors included in our model, so upgrading these variables could reduce gender inequalities in farm wages. Matching results indicate that the gender gaps estimated with nearest neighbour matching and kernel-based matching are 9.8% and 21.6% higher, respectively, than the gaps measured by the decomposition technique. Thus, the matching procedure was successful in identifying a sizeable proportion of gender gaps that are unexplained due to discrimination between male and female farm workers.
German Names for Merels
Authors: Richter Jonas
Published: October 2023

Merels (also called Nine Men‘s Morris) comprises a family of traditional board games with ancient roots. Between medieval and modern times, merels saw an interesting onomasiological shift: Several European languages took up a new name for the game. This new name is sometimes claimed to have originated in German, but the details surrounding this naming practice are still unclear. There are mainly two German groups of names for this game, the older names based on the number 9 (Neunstein, Neunten Stein, Neunermal etc.) and the younger based on the German word for “mill” (Mühle, Mühlspiel, Mühleziehen etc.). Relying on philological evidence (partly pulled from lexicographical data) this paper outlines the evolution of German terms for merels, focusing on the naming practices from the 15th to 17th century. Possible motivations of the name Mühle are discussed.

Published: October 2023

Pineapple leaf waste, with its high cellulose content, can serve as alternative starting material for the production of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). In this study, cellulose was  extracted from pineapple leaf waste by 0.5 M NaOH at 90 oC for 2 h and 0.5 M HNO3 at 90 oC for 2 h. The obtained cellulose, with average diameters of 3-7 μm, was converted to carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) by esterification. Preparation of CMC was investigated by varying two factors, namely, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) dosage and monochloroacetic acid (MCA) dosage. The cellulose was soaked in a solution mixture of ethanol and NaOH for 2 h at room temperature. It was then reacted with chloroacetic acid (MCA) at 60 oC for 2 h. The optimum conditions for carboxymethylation were found to be 0.70 g of MCA/g cellulose, 0.75 g NaOH/g cellulose. The obtained CMC had a high degree of substitution (DS) of 1.0 with the CMC yield of 150%. The obtained CMC were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy, SEM images and XRD diffractions. Moreover, the thickerning performance of the obtained CMC was also determined.

The increased demand for medicines of natural origin has prompted the search for new plants possessing specific pharmacological properties. Despite the advent of effective synthetic drugs, medicinal plants remain a primary source of potent remedies for treating and preventing various human body system disorders. The aim was to analyse the distribution and establish the species composition of medicinal plants (which bloom in April-May) growing in Ternopil. A total of thirty three plant species have been identified: Hyoscyamus niger L., Lamium purpureum L., Ajuga reptans L., Erodium cicutarium (L.) L'Her., Capsella bursa-pastoris L., Dactylis glomerata L., Symphytum officinale L., Symphytum tuberosum L., Ranunculus acris L., Ranunculus cassubicus L., Senecio vernalis Waldst. & Kit., Galeobdolon luteum, Lamium galeobdolon (L.) L., Gagea lutea L. Ker Gawl., Stellaria holostea L., Stellaria media (L.) Vill., Alliaria petiolata (M. Bieb.) Cavara & Grande, Trifolium pratense L., Leucanthemum vulgare Lam., Taraxacum officinale (L.) Weber ex F. H. Wigg, Papaver rhoeas L., Pulmonaria obscura Dumort., Myosotis arvensis (L.) Hill, Tussilago farfara L., Ficaria verna Huds., Glechoma hederacea L., Fumaria officinalis L., Bellis perennis L., Fragaria vesca L., Thlaspi arvense L., Poa pratensis L., Viola odorata L., Lathyrus vernus (L.) Bernh., Chelidonium majus L.

Systematic analysis showed that the species belong to the following families: Solanaceae (3 %), Lamiaceae (12 %), Geraniaceae (3 %), Brassicaceae (9 %), Poaceae (6 %), Boraginaceae (9 %), Ranunculaceae (9 %), Asteraceae (15 %), Liliaceae (3 %), Caryophyllaceae (6 %), Fabaceae (6 %), Papaveraceae (9 %), Rosaceae (3 %), Violaceae (3 %). The identified species belong to 28 genera. Among the 33 species identified in Ternopil, no medicinal properties were found or they were little studied in Dactylis glomerata, Ranunculus cassubicus, Senecio vernalis, Lamium galeobdolon, Gagea lutea, Rabelera holostea, Stellaria media, Leucanthemum vulgare, Myosotis arvensis, Poa pratensis. The studied plants are classified according to their main pharmacological properties (used in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, etc.). Most of the analyzed plants are utilized in traditional medicine, while some are incorporated into pharmaceutical formulations. There are poisonous medicinal plants (Hyoscyamus niger, Chelidonium majus, Senecio vernalis, Ranunculus acris, Symphytum officinale, Symphytum tuberosum, Papaver rhoeas, Ficaria verna). There were not plants in the Official List of Regionally Rare Plants of the Ternopil Region or in the Red Data Book of Ukraine (2009).

Authors: Kareem Rustam Hamzah , M. Al-Nema Luma
Published: October 2023

Disinfection of dentures and resilient denture liners were preferred for cross-contamination treatment and better safety. Nevertheless, it has been found that these techniques affect the physical and mechanical properties of denture liners. Objective: To evaluate the impact of various disinfection methods on the tensile bond strength of acrylic soft liner. Material and Methods: 25 samples were made, then divided randomly into five groups (4 disinfection groups as well as a control group), after the daily disinfection procedure, distilled water was used to store the samples at room temperature. After 30 days, a universal testing device (Gester, China) was used to assess the tens ile bond strength. The machine applied force to the specim ens at a crosshead constant speed of 5 mm/minute until failure was recorded. Statistics software (SPSS) was used to analyze the measurements. Results: After 30 days of regular ex posure to different disinfection methods, a greater mean value for bond strength showed in the control group while the lesse r value was in the chlorhexidine group. No significant difference was found between the control and Protefix tablet groups. The sodium hypochlorite and microwave groups had no significant difference between them, but they were significantly different from the control, Protefix tablet, and chlorhexidine groups. the chlorhexidine group was significantly different from the control and other disinfected groups. Conclusion: All disinfected soft liners revealed a decrease i n tensile bond strength, which was not significant with the protefix cleansing tablet but significant with the chlorhexidine, sodium hypochlorite, and microwave regimes.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of incorporation Magnesium oxides nanoparticles with different concentrations on hardness and color changes o f heat cure acrylic resin. A total of 40-disc shape specimens with a diameter of (12±0.1) mm and a thickness of (2±0.1) mm were prepared from heat cure acrylic resin. They were grouped into 4 groups according to nanoparticles concentrations (10) specimens for each group, then they are subjected to hardness and color changes tests. Control group (A): (10 specimens) without addition. Group (B): 10 specimens of acrylic resin with (2%) concentration of MgO. Group (C): 10 specimens of acrylic resin with (4%) concentration of MgO. Group (D): 10 specimens of acrylic resin with (6%) concentration of MgO. The results showed there is high significant difference for MgO (2%, 4%) when compared with the controls. While there is no significant variation for MgO (6%). color changes showed there is a non-significant difference for all groups except for (6%) group which revealed there is high significant difference. Adding limited concentration of MgO (2%, 4%) have a positive effect on hardness of surfaces and color changes of heat-cured acrylic resins. any Increase in Concentration of MgO will effect adversely on hardness of surfaces and color stabiliti

Published: October 2023

Endodontic treatments have been improved over the last decade by the use of nickel titanium (NiTi) alloys. NiTi instrument had shape memory and superelastic properties which made the instrument more flexible, so the treatment quality was enhanced by eliminating the procedural errors. Although the numerous benefits of the NiTi instruments, the fracture was the most frequent failure that may be happened during its use due to flexural (cyclic) or torsional fatigue. Various thermo-mechanical heat treatments have been applied to NiTi instruments to improve fracture resistance and clinical performance. Several parameters influenced the fatigue resistance of NiTi files, and the most important factor that affected the likelihood of NiTi instrument fatigue was the root canal shape. Data collected of 100 papers from the Goggle scholar and Scien ceDirect database. After excluding 60 unrelated papers, thi s review of 40 included related studies aims to evaluate an overview of the anatomical root-related factors affecting t he cyclic fatigue of heat-treated NiTi instruments. Concl uded that the separation rates of file increased when the radius of curvature decreases and when the angle of curvature increased. Canals with the double curvatures increase the risk of cyclic fatigue. Also, the resistance to cyclic fatigue of NiTi files was affected by the canal curvature posit ion, with a short failure life coronally. So even in the improve ment of wire metallurgy and designs of instrument, the anatomy of canal still impact on the cyclic fatigue and should be considered during preparation especially with th e new concept of minimally invasive endodontic treatmen t.

Published: October 2023

The article provides modern definitions and classification of urticaria. The general provisions of the treatment of chronic urticaria, the treatment of which is often very difficult, are outlined. The main provisions of the treatment of urticaria were formulated, according to which the patient should be treated until the rash is completely resolved. In chronic urticaria, it is necessary to identify and eliminate the causes of dermatosis; avoid exposure to identified triggers; increase tolerance; pharmacological treatment should be aimed at preventing the release of mast cell mediators and/or the effects of mast cell mediators. The goal of treatment should be to relieve the symptoms of urticaria as completely as possible, taking into account the safety and quality of life of the patient in each individual case. The importance of identifying and addressing underlying causes and avoiding identified triggers is emphasized. The therapy algorithm is considered in detail, including 4 lines according to the European guidelines and domestic clinical guidelines. Particular attention is paid to the treatment of various subtypes of chronic urticaria. A comparative description of the most effective antihistamines is given.

Background: The importance of inflammation in coronary artery disease and the inflammatory biomarkers linked to adverse outcomes have recently been the subject of numerous investigations. In addition to examining the relationship between dickkopf-1 and high mobility group box-1 with other biochemical markers, this study seeks to ascertain the relationship between dickkopf-1 and high mobility group box-1 in patients whose angina pectoris is not stable. Methods: The work includes 50 patients (20 female and 30 male) and 40, 20 female and 20 males as controls who attended Al Ramadi Teaching Hospital between November 2021 and April. The sample age ranged between 52.16 ± 8.423 years in comparison to 49.58 ± 8.098 for the controls. Results: The serum DKK-1 levels (ng/mL) rose in unstable angina (UA) patients (135.527.13 for UA patients vs. 36.614.07 for the control group), so UA patients had higher DKK-1 release during platelet aggregation because DKK1 is involved in platelet-induced endothelial cell activation, so DKK1 causes inflammation. Additionally, the GSH was significantly lower in those having UA than in controls. Conclusion: Serum DKK-1 levels was significantly higher for those with UA compared to the healthy and there is a significant drop in GSH levels in people with UA than in controls.

Relating to the current study, the quality by design (QbD) concept is used for creating and validating an unique, resilient, accurate, and reliable spectrophotometric approach to quantify Tigecycline (TIG) in injections. Fractional factorial design (FFD) was a design implemented to screen the initial parameters. Moreover, the variables went through the central composite design (CCD) to assess the dependency and optimize the design. Several measures were analyzed statistically to determine the appropriateness of the data obtained from the experiments. At 250 nm, by the use of ethanol, TIG displays an absorption maximum. Variables like screening, slit-width, and sampling interval were recognized as critical method and again, evaluation was done by a CCD. A good linearity was produced for TIG within a range of 2 to 12 μg/mL, with R2 less than 0.999. The process was determined to be perfect, having a good average percent recovery (greater than 100%). According to ICH guidelines, validation of the developed method was performed. By the implementation of QbD principles, spectrophotometric techniques were created and planned to, integrate the qualities into the methods. These processes were manifested for being flexible and pertinent for identifying TIG in pharmaceutical dose regimens.

Nanoparticles are abundant and usable in the medical field as an antibiotic. It has been found that metal oxide nanoparticles, such as Co3O4, are efficient against bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics. Escherichia and Staphylococcus bring on enteric sickness and other illnesses. This study used co-precipitation to create Co3O4 nanoparticles. SEM, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy were used to analyze these oxide nanoparticles. The XRD pattern validated the Co3O4 crystalline match. SEM also showed the morphology of Co3O4 nanoparticles. As determined by X-rays, Co3O4 has an average diameter of around 37.08 nm. The Co3O4 nanoparticles were highly pure, showed by an energy-dispersive EDX pattern. Both on their own and in conjunction with cephalexin, these metal oxide nanoparticles demonstrated antibacterial efficacy against S. aureus and E. coli. These Co3O4 nanoparticles showed high growth inhibition compared with using cephalexin individually. These conclusions found that the presence of cephalexin with Co3O4 showed high growth inhibition. The antibacterial activity of Co3O4 nanoparticles should be subjected for further studies.
