A study of prophylactic low dose ketamine and granisetron for prevention of shivering during spinal anesthesia
Authors: Yadav Rajiv
Published: March 2023

Spinal anesthesia significantly results in shivering and hypothermia as unwanted effect. Shivering increases oxygen consumption which may be deleterious in patients who have low cardiac and pulmonary reserve. We conducted this study to evaluate the efficacy of Ketamine and Granisetron for prevention of shivering under spinal anesthesia. In this randomized prospective study, 90 Patients aged 18-60 years of ASA physical status I & II undergoing various surgical procedures were included and allocated alternately to one of the 3 groups; Normal saline (Group P), Ketamine 0.25mg/kg (Group K) and Granisetron 40μg/kg (Group G). Incidence of shivering, effect on haemodynamics, nausea, vomiting, and sedation were recorded. The patients were comparable in terms of demographic variables, baseline temperature, and median level of sensory blockade. Shivering was present in 10 (33%), 3 (10%), 1 (3%) respectively in Group P, G, K. In Group P, 8 (26%) patients experienced shivering at Grade 3 and this was significantly higher than Groups G and K (P = 0.0003). None of the patients were sedated in Group G and P. The sedation was seen in 8 cases (26%) in Ketamine group, most of them were sedated to grade 2 and only 3 were of grade 3 (P<0.05). No hallucination was seen in any of the patients. Low dose ketamine and Granisetron are effective for prevention of shivering in comparison to placebo during spinal anesthesia and ketamine is more effective than granisetron.

Migración internacional y oportunidades educativas en Argentina: el caso de la población sudamericana
Authors: Zuccotti Carolina Viviana
Published: March 2023

El estatus migratorio de las personas es un determinante central de las oportunidades educativas. A partir de microdatos de los censos de 2001 y 2010 (Integrated Public Use Microdata Series [IPUMS]), el objetivo del artículo es identificar si existe una brecha educativa por origen migrante en Argentina, y cómo esta varía según el contexto educativo y socioeconómico familiar. El análisis, que compara hijos/as de inmigrantes sudamericanos con hijos/as de argentinos/as “nativos” entre 6 y 21 años, se centra en cuatro indicadores de asistencia escolar y nivel educativo. Los resultados muestran que existen brechas educativas por origen migrante, y que estas dependen del nivel educativo parental. En general, entre quienes tienen padres de nivel educativo bajo, los jóvenes de origen migrante presentan mejores logros educativos que los argentinos nativos; por el contrario, entre quienes tienen padres de nivel educativo medio-alto, los jóvenes de origen migrante presentan iguales o peores logros educativos. Se presentan posibles explicaciones.
Natural afforestation of the fallows in the Western Polissya
Authors: Kimeichuk Ivan , Kaidyk Oleksandr
Published: March 2023

One of the main tasks of forestry in Ukraine is to increase forest cover – it can be partially solved by the development of low-productive agricultural land, in particular, fallows, on which self-sown forest is already growing or just appearing, since the expanded reproduction of forests is relevant for Ukraine, considering ecological and forestry transformations of fallows conditioned by their natural afforestation. The main goal was to evaluate the success of natural renewal on fallows in the region under study, to identify factors influencing the course of natural afforestation and tree conservation depending on the location of the plot relative to the forest border and the distance to it. General scientific, forestry and taxation, reconnaissance, forestry and ecological, and geobotanics methods were used to investigate natural renewal at fallows. Office study of materials was carried out using mathematical statistics. As a result of a detailed investigation of the natural settlement of forest tree species on abandoned fields of Western Polissya, it was found that in coniferous and subor conditions, the plots are mostly wooded with pine, as well as birch and alder. In most of the test plots, the renewal was satisfactory (according to the Nesterov scale). The number of self-seeding of tree species in the test plots was not uniform and ranged from 1.2-13.1 thous. units/ha depending on forest site types, species composition, undergrowth size, the abundance of living ground cover, and the degree of sodding of the site and clogging with weeds and grass, which ranged from 20 to 90%. The occurrence of natural renewal is also not uniform: from 19 to 100%. The spread of tree species occurred mainly from forest stands located to the west, northwest, and north of the fallows. The findings of the study are extremely important for employees of the forest industry, and can also be used by territorial communities in improving land management, establishing landscape parks, etc.

Authors: Gazieva I. A. , Burashnikova A. A.
Published: March 2023

The article presents the result of developing the model of the competence profile of a teacher as the basis for the system of revealing, assessing and developing professional skills of a teacher, including competences, which have a significant impact on the quality of pedagogical and scientific work of a teacher. The emphasis is put on different levels of competence profile: functional (competencies necessary for teachers to develop and disseminate research, innovation, and educational practices) and value (competencies acquired and developed by a teacher under the influence of stimulating professional environment and values of corporate culture of professional community and HEI). The empirical basis of the article is the results of a series of focus groups and strategy sessions with teaching and administrative staff and students reflecting the peculiarities of perception of “professional mastery of a teacher” perception as a defining category of quality pedagogical process in higher education.
Higher Education for Global and Local Sustainable Development
Authors: Zinevich O. V. , Melekhina E. A.
Published: March 2023

The Russian universities’ contribution to the achievement of sustainable development goals is analyzed from the prospect of globalism crisis and transition to the global-local paradigm of the existence of a society. The authors proceed from the theoretical premise that the internationally recognized threefold concept of sustainable development encompassing economic development, social stability and environmental sustainability is based on the understanding of the development as a process and a result of subjective and objective factors that effective in activity aimed at building the future of the humankind. Sociocultural approach allows considering the universities’ practices on achieving global goals of sustainable development through local (national and cultural) practices: ecological, economical and socially oriented activity and/ or building ecosystems at a local level. The article is aimed to define the universities’ organizational environment and conditions providing the high level of sustainable development goals’ achievement.

Universities implement various strategies to introduce the concept of sustainability into the programs of their development. The practices of the universities known for the effective implementation of sustainability concept into educational, research and social practices oriented to the regional sustainable development are analyzed. The universities under consideration provide stimulating ground for establishing horizontal and vertical relationships among all subjects of sustainable development within their educational environment, fostering sustainability culture and motivating students, teachers and other personnel to achieve sustainability goals. Their experience might be informative for Russian Universities as far as the principles of sustainable development and orientation at building educational ecosystems are formulated in the national programs of regional development in Russia (Flagship Universities Program and Priority 2030 Program). In the Priority 2030 Program, the ecosystem principle is one of the fundamental for the result-oriented innovative development of regional clusters created by the joint efforts of universities, businesses, state and social organizations. However, Russian universities in their striving for designing educational ecosystem mostly focus on research and financial aspects than on the development of a man, whose professional, intellectual and moral formation might contribute to the sustainable development of the region, the nation and the world.

Published: March 2023

The article considers the results of the main activities of universities – participants’ groups of the Priority 2030 program of the «Leadership in Research» track (hereinafter referred to as the research track) at the initial stage of its implementation. An analysis of performance indicators’ dynamics for groups of universities in the period preceding the implementation of the program (2017–2020) and the first year of its implementation (2021) was carried out. Special attention is given to the analysis of the activities of universities that are leaders in the research track. As part of the comprehensive analysis, positive results were identified, as well as some problem areas in the activities of universities. An analysis of the basic indicators shows that the researched groups of universities in a number of indicators have a relatively small difference in the achieved values, while the indicators of the special part revealed an unconditional group of leaders.

Authors: Mendez Mario F. , Nasir Imaad
Published: March 2023

The differentiation of semantic variant primary progressive aphasia from dementia and Alzheimer’s disease can be difficult, particularly when the semantic anomia is pronounced. This report describes a patient who presented with complaints of memory loss and proved to have prominent semantic loss of all types of nouns, common and proper, concrete and abstract, yet continued to live independently and maintain his activities of daily living. The evaluation was consistent for semantic variant primary progressive aphasia with degradation of semantic knowledge and focal anterior temporal atrophy and hypometabolism. This report summarizes the literature and discusses the differential diagnosis of this disorder from Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias.
Lightweight implants in breast reconstruction
Authors: Heine Norbert , Brebant Vanessa , Seitz Stephan , Eigenberger Andreas , Prantl Lukas , Tessmann Vanessa
Published: March 2023

Objective: Since the first use of silicone implants by Cronin in 1962, there have been several attempts to introduce alternative filling materials for breast implants on the market. A promising new development are lightweight implants, whose filler material is one third lighter than conventional silicone gel. While these implants have been used primarily for aesthetic augmentation, a benefit could be expected particularly in post-mastectomy reconstruction. Materials and Methods: Since 2019, 92 operations using lightweight implants have been performed at our clinic, 61 of them for breast reconstruction after mastectomy. These have been compared to 92 breast reconstructions using conventional silicone implants. Results: The average volume of the lightweight implants was 30% higher than of the conventional implants (452 ml resp. 347 ml), whereas the implant weight was comparable in both groups (317 g resp. 347 g). Grade 3-4 capsular fibrosis was seen in 6 cases in both groups; revision was required 9 times (lightweight implants) and 7 times (conventional silicone implants) during the follow-up period. Discussion: To our knowledge, this is the first study to investigate the use of lightweight implants in breast reconstruction. With exception of the filler material, the implants used in the two groups were comparable in shape and surface. The inserted lightweight implants had a greater volume but nearly the same weight as the conventional implants and were used in patients with a higher body mass index. Thus, lightweight implants were preferred in patients whose reconstruction required a larger implant volume. Conclusion: Lightweight implants are a new alternative for breast reconstruction especially in case that larger implant volume is demanded. The increased complication rate has to be verified in further studies.
Dimensionality reduction of large datasets with explicit feature maps
Authors: Francis Deena P. , Raimond Kumudha , Kathrine G. Jaspher W.
Published: March 2023

Learning algorithms are often equipped with kernels that enable them to deal with non-linearities in the data, which ensures increased performance in practice. However, traditional kernel based methods suffer from the problem of scalability. As a workaround, explicit kernel maps have been proposed in the past. Previously for the task of streaming Kernel Principal Component Analysis (KPCA), an explicit kernel map has been combined with a matrix sketching technique to obtain scalable dimensionality reduction (DR) algorithm. This algorithm is limited by two issues, both pertaining to the explicit kernel map and the matrix sketching algorithms respectively. As a solution, two new scalable DR algorithms called ECM-SKPCA and Euler-SKPCA are proposed. The efficacy of the proposed algorithms as scalable DR algorithms is demonstrated via the task of classification with many publicly available datasets. The results indicate that the proposed algorithms produce more effective features than the previous algorithm for the classification task. Furthermore, ECM-SKPCA is also demonstrated to be much faster than all other algorithms.

Authors: Borisavljević Aleksandar , Kukić Filip , Ćosić Marko , Janković Goran , Dopsaj Milivoj
Published: March 2023

BACKGROUND:

Foam roller with vibration is a recent development and its implementation has not yet been provided with a sufficient scientific justification. Information on whether an implementation of vibration foam rolling for self-massage before the powerful muscular activities is a good strategy is scarce.

OBJECTIVE:

Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the acute effects of a single 15-s and 60-s vibrating foam rolling treatment on muscle contractile properties during maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC).

METHODS:

Twenty healthy and recreationally active subjects participated in this study. During first visit, baseline characteristics were collected, while on the second and third visit they performed a 15-s and a 60-s vibration foam rolling treatment, respectively. Their maximal force (F[Formula: see text] and rate of force development (RFD[Formula: see text]) were assessed using the MVIC of plantarflexors.

RESULTS:

The RFD[Formula: see text] was negatively affected ([Formula: see text] 0.05) after the 15-s treatment and 60-s treatment, staying reduced even after 10-min of recovery. No significant effects were observed for F[Formula: see text].

CONCLUSIONS:

When implementing vibration foam rolling, either as a pre-workout activity or as a pre-competition treatment, caution should be taken. Short duration treatment should be avoided for activities were RFD[Formula: see text] has a significant impact on performance.
Where is open data in the Open Data Directive?
Authors: Broomfield Heather
Published: March 2023

The 2019 Directive on Open Data and the Re-use of Public Sector Information draws together two traditions in ensuring proactive access to government data. On one hand, it embraces the concept of ‘open data’, a concept rooted in government accountability and transparency for citizen participation. On the other hand, the directive covers the re-use of non-sensitive public sector information, which is deemed crucial for the internal market and realisation of the European data economy. Indeed, the directive itself is a further iteration of an earlier 2003 directive on the re-use of public sector information. Yet, despite the appearance of a seamless fusion of the different concepts, it is important to interrogate critically to what extent open data is actually incorporated. While the shorthand title for directive the Open Data Directive (ODD), there is a risk that much of the open data movement’s demands fall outside of its purview. Hence, the present paper undertakes a careful analysis of the ODD. It asks firstly, how does the directive align with and diverge from the rationale and requirements of the movement for open data? And secondly, what are the implications of this for citizen participation? The findings show that the original largely technical principles of open data are somewhat respected and incorporated into the ODD but are disjointed from the rationale behind them. References to citizen participation in the directive and supporting documentation, while welcome, risk being little more than window dressing.

Published: March 2023

Background: Preclinical Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one possible cause of subjective cognitive decline (SCD). Normal task performance despite ongoing neurodegeneration is typically considered as neuronal compensation, which is reflected by greater neuronal activity. Compensatory brain activity has been observed in frontal as well as parietal regions in SCD, but data are scarce, especially outside the memory domain. Objective: To investigate potential compensatory activity in SCD. Such compensatory activity is particularly expected in participants where blood-based biomarkers indicated amyloid positivity as this implies preclinical AD. Methods: 52 participants with SCD (mean age: 71.00±5.70) underwent structural and functional neuroimaging (fMRI), targeting episodic memory and spatial abilities, and a neuropsychological assessment. The estimation of amyloid positivity was based on plasma amyloid-β and phosphorylated tau (pTau181) measures. Results: Our fMRI analyses of the spatial abilities task did not indicate compensation, with only three voxels exceeding an uncorrected threshold at p < 0.001. This finding was not replicated in a subset of 23 biomarker positive individuals. Conclusion: Our results do not provide conclusive evidence for compensatory brain activity in SCD. It is possible that neuronal compensation does not manifest at such an early stage as SCD. Alternatively, it is possible that our sample size was too small or that compensatory activity may be too heterogeneous to be detected by group-level statistics. Interventions based on the individual fMRI signal should therefore be explored.
Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor Interacts with White Matter Hyperintensities to Influence Processing Speed and Hippocampal Volume in Older Adults

Published: March 2023

Background: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) is a neurotrophin that plays an important role in regulating synaptic activity and plasticity. Objective: Given that type-2 diabetes (T2DM) increases the risk of cognitive decline, and studies have suggested lower BDNF levels may be a risk factor of diabetic neurovascular complications, we sought to investigate total white matter hyperintensities (WMH) as a moderator of the effect of BDNF on hippocampal volume and cognition. Methods: Older adults without dementia from the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (N = 454 including 49 with T2DM and 405 without diabetes) underwent neuropsychological evaluation, magnetic resonance imaging to quantify hippocampal and WMH volumes, and blood draw to assess BDNF. Results: Adjusting for age, sex, and APOE ɛ4 carrier status, there was a significant interaction between total WMH and BDNF on bilateral hippocampal volume in the non-T2DM group (t = 2.63, p = 0.009). Examination of main effect models with a dichotomous high/low BNDF group revealed a significant main effect for low BDNF (t = –4.98, p < 0.001), such that as WMH increased, bilateral hippocampal volume decreased. There was also a significant interaction between total WMH and BDNF on processing speed in the non-T2DM group (t = 2.91, p = 0.004). There was a significant main effect for low BDNF (t = –3.55, p < 0.001) such that as WMH increased, processing speed decreased. The interactions were not significant in the T2DM group. Conclusion: These results further elucidate the protective role that BDNF plays on cognition, as well as the cognitive effects of WMH.

Authors: Moschidis Stratos , Thanopoulos Athanasios C. , Karamichalakou Christina
Published: March 2023

Official statistics place particular emphasis on communication and dissemination of surveys’ results to citizens and stakeholders. This is typically done through the publication of press releases and presentation of aggregated data of statistical surveys. The use of web services and software that allow users to interact with the results of official statistics comes to further enhance communication, dissemination, literacy and overall quality of official statistics. This paper is related to the objectives and context of reaching a wider audience through engaging users and explains how an NSO (National Statistical Office) member without specialized knowledge of frontend-backend programming techniques can create such web services in R programming environment through “Shiny” library. The paper also reviews the issue of hosting “Shiny” apps and presents existing approaches. For demonstration purposes, an experimental version of such an application was constructed that presents in an interactive way the quarterly results of the new statistical product of the Hellenic Statistical Authority (ELSTAT) on Greek business demography.
Automatizing model selection in an annual review of seasonal adjustment: A machine learning-inspired approach
Authors: Xie Yingfu
Published: March 2023

In this paper, we bring to attention the problem of model selection with conflicting criteria in general and in annual reviews of seasonal adjustment in particular. Although partial concurrent seasonal adjustment and annual reviews are recommended by Eurostat, the problem of model selection in such reviews is seldom discussed in the literature, and our study is an attempt to fill this gap. In these reviews, revisions caused by model changes are very undesirable. The trade-off between different diagnostics, M- and Q-statistics, numbers of outliers, and revisions is hard to make to select the best model. In this study, a customary model selection procedure is described. Furthermore, we argue for using the manually chosen models as the “true” models, which makes it possible to employ a supervised machine learning-like approach to select weights for these diagnostics. It shows that this approach could work equally well as (if not better than) human statisticians, and thus facilitates an automatized procedure for model selection in such annual reviews. Although the approach has limitations as we describe, it is, to our best knowledge, the first study of its kind in the literature.
Der Lehrer als Gründungssubjekt eines Diskurses
Authors: Assolini Filomena Elaine Paiva , Garrido Caio , Bartholomeu Josiane Aparecida de Paula
Published: March 2023

Einen Diskurs zu gründen bedeutet, für sich selbst zu denken und ein Autor zu sein, der nicht durch eine vorherige Machtstruktur unterbrochen ist. Daher wurde dieser Artikel als zentraler ist angenommen: Wie beeinflusst die Machtstruktur die Konstruktion des eigenen Denkens, insbesondere bei der Konstruktion eines pädagogischen Diskurses durch den Lehrer? Mit dem Ziel, nicht nur die Antwort auf diese Frage zu suchen und zu verstehen, sondern auch, ausgehend von den Konzepten des Subjekts und der Autorschaft, darüber nachzudenken, wie die Lesarten und Zugehörigkeiten von Diskurs und Bedeutung die Existenz eines eigenen Gedankens schaffen oder verhindern, der von einer bloßen Machtstruktur getrennt ist. Die theoretischen Zugehörigkeitsfelder waren daher für die Forschung die Diskursanalyse (DA), die Sozialhistorische Theorie der Alphabetisierung und die freudo-lacanische Psychoanalyse. Darüber hinaus wurde eine Umfrage mit etwa 35 Fachlehrern durchgeführt, die Klassen an staatlichen und städtischen öffentlichen Schulen in Ribeirão Preto und benachbarten Städten unterrichten, die befragt wurden und mündliche und schriftliche Aussagen ergaben. So zeigten die Ergebnisse, dass manchmal die Identifikation des Lehrers mit einem historisch konstituierten sozialpädagogischen Diskurs vorherrschte, wo die Präsenz von Unmut in den Aktivitäten vorherrschte, da sie von institutionellen Zumutungen getrieben wurden, und manchmal die Interpretation und Produktion von Bedeutungen und (Re-)Bedeutungen durch den Fachlehrer vorherrschte, der sich in seinen Aussagen autorisierte. So wurde festgestellt, dass Wissen und das Recht auf Interpretation (auf Lesen) nicht geteilt werden, sondern sozial und historisch inhomogen verteilt sind. Angesichts der Art und Weise, wie die Interpretation institutionell verwaltet wird, wird daher die Autorschaft davon beeinflusst. Das heißt, um die Position des Autors einnehmen zu können, ist es notwendig, das Recht und die Möglichkeit zu haben, verschiedene Orte der Verdolmetschung zu besetzen, sich um sie herum zu bewegen und als Dolmetscher zu fungieren. Und noch mehr als Interpret historisiert.
Facilitation between plants and the use of facilitating species as an ecological restoration strategy
Authors: Ribeiro Izabela Ferreira , Menezes Luis Fernando Tavares de , Nascimento Marcelo Trindade
Published: March 2023

Ecosystems subject to extreme abiotic factors are privileged places for studies of positive interactions between plants, such as facilitation mechanisms, which, from biotic or abiotic modifications, generate benefits to the environment. Due to the increase in the number of articles on facilitation in recent decades and the indication of the use of facilitating species in recovery and ecological restoration projects, the present study presents a literature review on facilitation between plant-plant and its applicability between the years 2011 and 2020. A total of 64 studies were considered that encompass the facilitation theme, and the text was composed of an introduction and two sections: i) studies on the facilitation mechanism – advances in the last decade and ii) facilitation as a strategy for ecological restoration. This review indicates that the best understanding of facilitation mechanisms occurs from the combination of knowledge at different levels, such as knowledge of species, ecological organization, phylogenetics and environmental conditions. Thus, this approach enables a better understanding of the community dynamics and demonstrates how the use of facilitating species in restoration areas, especially in regions with severe environmental conditions and/or more vulnerable to climate change, has been considered an effective strategy in the ecological restoration process.

Published: March 2023

Will mass adoption of remote work lead to a mass exodus from Silicon Valley? A survey of over 660 high-tech workers in the San Francisco Bay Area ran from November 2021 to March 2022, asking about relocation interest and intended destinations.

53% of respondents expressed interest in moving or already moved, with post-pandemic preferences shifting towards suburbs and stand-alone homes. However, most moves merely represented a dispersal into Bay Area suburbs with a median relocation distance of 33.68km. The number of expected days in the office, dictated by employer remote work policies, significantly impacted relocation interest.
The Establishment of Jangyongyeong(壯勇營)’s Order of Command(戒令) and the Operation of Jaktongje(作統制) During the Reign of King Jeongjo
Authors:   Korea Association of World History and Culture, Kim Jun-Hyuk
Published: March 2023

King Jeongjo also used Jangyongyeong as a political basis for strengthening the monarchy. It did not simply serve as a military camp for strengthening national defense and reforming the military system, but established itself as a royal guard military camp. King Jeongjo controlled Jangyongyeong at the same time with benefits to make it a strong military camp. King Jeongjo made a strict ‘Gye-ryeong(戒令)’ at Jangyongyeong to prevent soldiers from doing wrong and to gain the trust of the people. Article 10 of the Jangyongyeong commandment specified in 『Jangyongyeong Great Jeolmok(壯勇營大節目)』 was made into Jangyongyeong’s edict(飭令).
King Jeongjo promoted the establishment of military camps for Jangyongyeong soldiers and their families while enacting the Jangyongyeong Gye-ryeong. The place was the area around Yeonhwabang, where the Northern Expedition Army during King Hyojong’s reign was stationed. King Jeongjo created Jangyongyeong’s military camp in the Seoninmun area because he hoped that JJangyongyeong military and family would be trusted by the people and become a strong military camp through systematic and intensive training through stable families. King Jeongjo made Dong-gye(洞契) of Jangyongyeong’s military camp and Jaktongjo based on Dong-gye. This was to create the ideal military camp and military village envisioned by King Jeongjo.
In addition, King Jeongjo’s collective residence of Jangyongyeong’s soldiers and their families in Yeonhwabang area was to make it easier to defend the palace and clean this area to be trusted by the people and increase the king’s dignity. This is because one of the purposes of making Jangyongyeong was to escort the king and strengthen the royal authority. In addition, in order to prevent the concerns that Jangyongyeong’s soldiers would become arrogant and cause inconvenience, each of them was controlled by Dong-gye(洞契) to continuously promote the king’s military reform.

The Impact of Digital Technology on International Relations: The Case of the War between Russia and Ukraine
Authors: Albakjaji Mohamad
Published: March 2023

Background: The concept of a strong state is no longer measured by its military and economic strength, but also by the level of its ability to both defend against cyber-attacks and control cyberspace. During the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it became clear that modern technology had an active role on the ground. This research focuses on the role of modern technology in conflicts and as a key factor in relations between states. It has been proven that technology has led to the creation of new concepts in international relations - the concept of technological sanctions, electronic warfare, and so on. This paper will focus deeply on studying the impact of technology on international relations, and its role in war, peace and security. The researcher uses the Russian-Ukrainian war to support these ideas.
Methods: In this paper, the researcher used an analytical and structural method to provide an in-depth perspective on the impact of new technology on international relations. Moreover, a case study on the war between Russia and Ukraine were deployed to explain how new technology is heavily involved in international relations. To support the ideas discussed in this paper, the author uses legal texts, international conventions, and official reports issued from national and international institutions.
Result and Conclusion: In this paper, a comprehensive analysis of how IT has affected international relations has been presented. The researcher found that digital technology is considered a new international distribution of power and driving force in the social construction of war and peace. The paper also found that the war between Russia and Ukraine has proven that new technology is widely used in the conflict. The researcher also found that there is a binding legal framework to regulate the activities of the cyber domain. Moreover, new types of sanctions have been emerging internationally. During the conflict, new means of funding and new types of currency have been also been employed, which is considered a new challenge to international relations. The main finding of the paper is that new technology and cyberspace activities cannot be governed locally. The international community should involve civil actors in the governing and regulatory process of cyberspace.

This study sought to evaluate the accuracy of a PPG (photoplethysmography) sensor designed to measure human heart rates in monitoring the distal limb pulse of healthy adult horses. We hypothesized that the PPG sensor is sensitive to placement location and orientation, and that measurement accuracies depend on placement and orientation on the limb. To evaluate this hypothesis, a completely randomized block design with a factorial treatment structure was used. Horses were considered as the block. Limb type (right front, left front, right hind, and left hind) and position of sensor (medial or lateral) were treatments, with levels arranged in a complete (4x2) factorial design. Data were collected by placing the PPG sensor on the limb of each horse (n = 6), with placement location according to the treatment (limb type and location) combination, and taking pulse readings for 60 seconds. Manual heart rates were collected concurrently using a stethoscope. Data were analyzed by calculating root mean square errors (RMSE) for the PPG measurements with the manual heart rates as a gold standard. Variation in RMSE associated with limb and location of sensor were evaluated using a general linear model with fixed effects for limb and location and a random effect for horse. Our results indicated that the PPG sensor was ineffective at measuring horse heart rates, and that the device was insensitive to placement location and orientation. Future work should focus on developing alternative analytics to interpret the data from PPG sensors to better reflect horse heart rates.

The initiation of adaptive immunity relies on the performance of dendritic cells (DCs), which are specialized leukocytes with professional antigen presenting capabilities. As such, the molecular mechanisms safeguarding DC homeostasis are matter of intense research. Sensors of the unfolded protein response (UPR) of the endoplasmic reticulum, a three-pronged signaling pathway that maintains the fidelity of the cellular proteome, have emerged as regulators of DC biology. The archetypical example is the IRE1/XBP1s axis, which supports DC development and survival of the conventional type 1 DC (cDC1) subtype. However, the role of additional UPR sensors in DC biology, such as the ATF6α branch, has not been clearly elucidated. Even though Xbp1 is transcriptionally induced by ATF6α under ER stress, it is unclear if cDCs also co-opt the ATF6α branch in tissues. Here, we examine the role of ATF6α in cDC homeostasis in vivo and upon innate stimulation in vitro. In steady state, animals lacking ATF6α in CD11c+ cells (Itgax Cre x Atf6fl/fl mice) display normal cDC frequencies in spleen, intestine, liver, and lung. Also, ATF6α deficient cDCs express normal levels of Xbp1 mRNA and additional UPR components. However, a reduction of lung monocytes is observed in Itgax Cre x Atf6fl/fl conditional deficient animals suggesting that ATF6α may play a role in the biology of monocyte subsets. Notably, in settings of DC activation, ATF6α contributes to the production of IL-12 and IL-6 to inflammatory stimuli. Thus, although ATF6α may be dispensable for tissue cDC homeostasis in steady state, the transcription factor plays a role in the acquisition of selective immunogenic features by activated DCs.

Oncogenes are increasingly recognized as important factors in the development and progression of cancer. Holliday Junction Recognition Protein (HJURP) is a highly specialized mitogenic protein that is a chaperone protein of histone H3. The HJURP gene is located on chromosome 2q37.1 and is involved in nucleosome composition in the mitotic region, forming a three-dimensional crystal structure with Centromere Protein A (CENP-A) and the histone 4 complex. HJURP is involved in the recruitment and assembly of centromere and kinetochore and plays a key role in stabilizing the chromosome structure of tumor cells, and its dysfunction may contribute to tumorigenesis. In the available studies HJURP is upregulated in a variety of cancer tissues and cancer cell lines and is involved in tumor proliferation, invasion, metastasis and immune response. In an in vivo model, overexpression of HJURP in most cancer cell lines promotes cell proliferation and invasiveness, reduces susceptibility to apoptosis, and promotes tumor growth. In addition, upregulation of HJURP was associated with poorer prognosis in a variety of cancers. These properties suggest that HJURP may be a possible target for the treatment of certain cancers. Various studies targeting HJURP as a prognostic and therapeutic target for cancer are gradually attracting interest and attention. This paper reviews the functional and molecular mechanisms of HJURP in a variety of tumor types with the aim of providing new targets for future cancer therapy.
