Researcher reasoning meets computational capacity: Machine learning for social science
Authors: Lundberg Ian , Brand Jennie E. , Jeon Nanum
Published: May 2022

Computational power and big data have created new opportunities to explore and understand the social world. A special synergy is possible when social scientists combine human attention to certain aspects of the problem with the power of algorithms to automate other aspects of the problem. We review selected exemplary applications where machine learning amplifies researcher coding, summarizes complex data, relaxes statistical assumptions, and targets researcher attention to further social science research. We aim to reduce perceived barriers to machine learning by summarizing several fundamental building blocks and their grounding in classical statistics. We present a few guiding principles and promising approaches where we see particular potential for machine learning to transform social science inquiry. We conclude that machine learning tools are increasingly accessible, worthy of attention, and ready to yield new discoveries for social research.
Prevalence of Retinitis Pigmentosa in a Tertiary Eye Hospital of Nepal
Authors: Gupta Krishna Kant , Gurung Govind , Tulsyan Nitin
Published: May 2022

Introduction: Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) is a group of diffuse retinal degenerative diseases predominantly affecting the rod and cone photoreceptors. The prevalence of retinitis pigmentosa seen in literature is approximately 1:4000. Retinitis Pigmentosa is  one of the the most common causes of blindness in the age group of 20 to 40 years. The objective of this study was to determine the profile of retinitis pigmentosa in Terai and Nepal-India border region considering patients seeking care at a Tertiary level Eye Hospital in the terai region (southern part) of Nepal.
Materials and methods: A hospital-based, retrospective study was carried out at R. M. Kedia Eye Hospital. A total of 385 (83 males and 107 females from Nepal and 109 males and 86 females from India) diagnosed patients of Retinitis Pigmentosa were included in the study. Data was collected over a period of eleven years from 2008-2018. 
Results: Out of 385 diagnosed Retinitis Pigmentosa patients, 192 (49.87%) were male and 193 (50.13%) were female with slightly female predominance. The prevalence of RP seen in our study was 0.03%. About 51% of the patients visited here were from India and nearby border areas/ villages which cover most of the rural areas of India. In this study it was found that 49.34% of the RP cases were from Nepal, of which 43.63% of cases were from Hindu community and 5.71% from Muslim community and about 50.66% cases of RP were from India, of which 37.67% from Hindu and 12.98% from Muslim community. The peak age of presentation of RP was at 30-39 years (29.09%), followed by 20-29 years (26.75%). The common marriage pattern of consanguinity was found in Muslim community in between the first cousins. In this study the hospital record did not show any evaluation for the syndromic disease in the hospital record, though RP is usually non syndromic and there are literatures where many syndromic forms have been identified. 
Conclusion: The prevalence of RP seen in the study was 0.03% (A total of 1101299 sample population of which 385 patients had RP). Since RP is an inherited disease and is one of the non-treatable causes of blindness which runs in the families, a role of counseling to reduce consanguineous marriages should be brought forward to reduce the disease process.

Published: May 2022

As COVID-19 pandemic is spreading worldwide with high infectivity rates of various strains, it is also challenging our healthcare system with its respiratory complications, and limited availability of healthcare providers. On the other hand, a huge vaccination program against COVID-19 is being conducted throughout the world. This viral infection and vaccination program has also brought into account the controversies of some neurological and autoimmune complications. Although the exact mechanism of these complications is still unknown, some autoimmune mechanisms have been predicted. These complications may further challenge the management of this novel viral infection. One of the rare complications of COVID-19 infection and its vaccination is de novo development or flare of ANCA-associated vasculitis, which has also been found in many recent case reports.
Acute Pneumonitis after instillation of Povidone iodine for Chemical Pleurodesis in Secondary Spontaneous Pneumothorax: A case report

Published: May 2022

Secondary spontaneous pneumothorax is common in adult and is often life threatening. Surgical intervention is preferred, however chemical pleurodesis is also widely recommended in the treatment of recurrent pneumothorax of different etiologies. Variety of agents such as erythromycin, tetracycline, autologous blood and talc slurry are available for chemical pleurodesis among which povidone iodine is cheap, easily available, effective and safe. In this paper, we report the case of acute pneumonitis after pleurodesis using povidone iodine in a 33 years old female with a known case of lymphangioleiomyomatosis with a history of recurrent pneumothorax.

Chemical pleurodesis was performed using povidone iodine after complete expansion of lung and absence of persistent air leak which was confirmed clinically and radiologically. Post procedure, the patient complained of right sided chest pain and cough. Fever, sputum production and shortness of breath was absent. Chest X-ray revealed new consolidation and infiltrations in the right middle zone. Subsequent CT chest showed extensive parenchymal consolidation and ground glass opacities in the right middle lobe, representing pneumonia with acute lung injury.

The acute pneumonitis spontaneously resolved with supportive care and the patient was discharged after seven days. Though drug induced pneumonitis is not a usual complication of povidone iodine, it is a possibility and has to be considered.

Published: May 2022

Respiratory distress syndrome is a common cause for admission in neonatal intensive care unit and is predominant in preterm infants. Rarely, this can cause respiratory distress in full term infants. Here, we present a case of a full term baby without any other obvious cause for respiratory distress and transiently responding to surfactant administration, who eventually died at 1 month of age. As her elder sibling had also died following similar course of illness, congenital surfactant deficiency was suspected and blood sample for genetic testing was sent. This revealed ABCA 3 mutation as the cause of congenital surfactant deficiency.
Między modelem majorytarnym a konsensualnym: przypadek japońskiej władzy ustawodawczej
Authors: Żakowski Karol
Published: May 2022

This article aims to examine to what extent the legislative process in the Japanese Diet has conformed to the majoritarian or the consensual model. The author pays attention to the constitutional determinants of the functioning of both houses of the parliament and the unwritten traditions stemming from the political culture. While such factors as the lack of the government’s direct control over the scheduling of parliamentary sessions, high autonomy of parliamentary committees, bicameralism, and limited length of parliamentary sessions compelled the ruling parties to seek consensus with the opposition, the government also possessed many instruments of imposing its will on lawmakers. This article analyses the institutional, cultural, and historical reasons for this complex situation, emphasising the evolution of the legislative practices depending on the balance of power in the Diet and the degree of governmental control over the ruling party.
Działalność posłów wybranych w 44. okręgu wyborczym (Tarnobrzeg, Kolbuszowa, Mielec i Nisko) na forum Sejmu Ustawodawczego RP w latach 1919–1922
Authors: Sumara Tomasz
Published: May 2022

The article presents the activities of deputies from the 44th electoral district, which includes: Tarnobrzeg, Kolbuszowa, Mielec, Nisko, in the Legislative Sejm. Taking up the presented local problem is justified by the fact that Polish historians have little interest in the activities of deputies in the life of the Second Polish Republic. In previous publications of the historical center, the parliamentary activity of deputies from the 44th electoral district is in the background. Therefore, the main purpose of the article is to outline the problem raised by these deputies in the parliament. The research has shown that parliamentarians not only addressed current state problems, but also took a number of initiatives relating to local issues, often mundane, nut important for their constituents.
Przestępczość przeciwko wyborom i referendum w Polsce w latach 1999–2019
Authors: Dajnowicz-Piesiecka Diana
Published: May 2022

The article deals with legal aspects of crime against elections and referendum and its selected criminal symptoms. The legislator has defined crimes of this kind in two legal acts: the Criminal Code of 1997 (Articles 248–251) and the Electoral Code of 2011 (Articles 497–497a, 500–510 and 513c). Crimes against elections and referendum include, among others, violation of the freedom to vote, electoral bribery, violation of the secrecy of the ballot, collection of signatures of support in the form of pressure, in unauthorised places and for advantage, possession of the ballot outside the polling station or lack of openness and transparency of the financial management of the electoral committee. Although the Penal Code contains fewer offenses against elections than the Election Code, the behaviours included therein were committed more often (they constituted 3/4 of election crimes in Poland). The stated election crimes have intensified in recent years and are characterised by an upward trend. Elections are therefore for some a realisation of fundamental civic rights, and for others, unfortunately, a field for abuse to achieve electoral success (one’s own or that of a political favorite). The research results presented in this article justify the need to deepen scientific research, especially on criminogenic factors of electoral crime.
Trwały system podziału mandatów w Parlamencie Europejskim – uwarunkowania prawne i polityczne
Authors: Kleinowski Marcin
Published: May 2022

The article analyses the issue of introducing a permanent system of distribution of seats in the European Parliament, taking into account the existing legal and political conditions. It points out that as a result of the entry into force of the provisions of the Treaty of Lisbon, and then Brexit, the indirect voting power of citizens of the largest Member States, especially Germany, France and Italy, in the decision-making process in the EU, has increased. At the same time, most of the proposed methods of distribution of seats in this institution lead to a significant increase in the number of parliamentary seats for the Member States with the largest populations. The paper presents the original concept of a permanent system of distribution of seats in the European Parliament, which ensures that when it is first applied, no Member State will have a smaller number of seats than it resulted from European Council Decision of 28 June 2013 establishing the composition of the European Parliament. It, therefore, meets the important political requirement that the introduction of the new method of distribution of parliamentary seats does not result in a reduction in the number of seats for any Member State.
lavoro per un'antologia
Authors: Di Dio Tommaso
Published: May 2022

It is almost expected for an anthology of contemporary poetry to adapt to certain assumptions, which editors seem to repeat almost inadvertently, such as the distinction of poets by generations or the creation of individual sections opened by the authors’ biographies. Yet, several considerations on the contemporary historical setting and on how this influences the landscape of contemporary poetry (e.g., the pervasiveness of web connections that leads to a sort of widespread and multimedial textuality, while the printed book surprisingly maintains a certain specific relevance, as well as the development of the genre of scientific studies towards fiction, opening new ways for authors to explore) invite us to look for a different approach. The essay analyses the formal principles of some of the most important Italian poetic anthologies published during the last fifty years in order to propose a new form of anthology, which spans from a theatrical dimension (a few selected authors on the poetic scene) to the idea of the anthology as landscape (an ecosystem of a variety of authors, constantly remoulded by the interaction with new poetic writing). The essay will highlight both the advantages and the risks inherent to this approach.
 
Un'antologia della poesia contemporanea sembra doversi adeguare ad alcuni assunti, ripetuti quasi inavvertitamente, come per esempio la distinzione dei poeti per generazioni oppure la loro scansione per biografie. Eppure, una molteplicità di considerazioni sulla situazione storica contemporanea e su come essa influenzi il panorama della poesia (per esempio la pervasività delle connessioni informatiche che conduce ad una sorta di testualità diffusa e multimediale, la contemporanea sorprendente permanenza del formato libro, ma anche lo sviluppo finzionale del genere saggistico che suggerisce nuove vie autoriali agli studi) invita ad immaginare un diverso approccio. Discutendo i principi formali di alcune delle principali antologie degli ultimi cinquant'anni, si arriva a ipotizzare una nuova forma: da un'idea teatrale dell'antologia (pochi selezionati autori sulla scena poetica), ad un'idea paesaggistica (una varietà di autori nel divenire degli scritti di poesia). Il saggio ne sottolineerà vantaggi e rischi.
AFGHAN EXTERNAL MIGRATION MOVEMENTS IN THE HISTORICAL PROCESS
Authors: DASHTİ Zabihullah
Published: May 2022

Afghan immigration, which has continued uninterruptedly for the last half century, has become an integral part of the country's historical identity. Political and economic instability which has been going on for nearly fifty years, foreign intervention and drought and famine caused by climate change, are the most important factors triggering Afghan migration. The unending war and instability in Afghanistan for more than forty years have seriously affected the living conditions of the Afghan people, forcing them to migrate internally and externally. Afghanistan is one of the countries that produce the most migration due to the internal conflicts, which it has been experiencing for the last forty years as a result of economic crisis and poverty. Especially during and after the Soviet Union's invasion of Afghanistan and the civil war in the country, more than 6 million people of Afghanistan had to migrate to neighboring countries such as Iran, Pakistan, the US and the European countries. In this process, there has been a brain drain with the migration of the skilled and educated people that the country needs most. The foreign aid made to the newly established administration after 2001 could not implement useful projects to ensure the safety of the people and to improve the economy. On the other hand, despite the great foreign aid made to the newly established administration after 2001 could not implement useful projects to ensure the safety of the people and to improve the economy due to corruption and governance problems. For the above mentioned reasons, since the people’s trust in the state cannot be fully ensured, the safety of life and property constitutes the most basic reasons for out-migration. However, after the fall of the Kabul government in August 2021 and the Taliban’s return to power, there was an increase in emigration. In this study, the factors that have caused an increase in external-emigration of people from Afghanistan mainly after 1979, the reasons for the majority of the Afghan migrants preferring Iran, Pakistan and Turkey as their destinations, and the major policies of these countries towards Afghan immigration were examined.

The Bunker “Valentin” in Farge, a suburb of Bremen, is one of the biggest relics of armament projects in the Second World War. Although it was built by up to 10,000 forced laborers under brutal conditions leading to a death toll of up to 1,600, it was primarily remembered as a technological masterpiece. This article describes the history of the bunker and how its remembrance changed over time. It assesses the formation of competing narratives of war technology and forced labor and explores the meaning of the material remains of the Second World War for the culture of remembrance of German war crimes at and after the end of the age of eyewitnesses.

Livestock Dung Use in Steppe Pastoralism
Authors: Peemot Victoria Soyan
Published: May 2022

This article studies the use of livestock dung in the social and ecological context of pastoralism in the Tyva Republic, Inner Asia. In steppe ecologies, livestock dung, depending on its (mis)management, can be a valuable resource or a threat to animals’ health and herders’ well-being. Its use is embedded in the relationships between herder-livestock communities and landscapes, which are sentient and superordinate. Utilizing dung for household needs is simultaneously a form of care for livestock and a method of balancing the relationship with sentient homelands.

Se a educação sozinha não transforma a sociedade, conforme Freire (2000), sem ela tampouco a sociedade muda. Sendo assim, compreende-se a importância de tal fator educacional na vida dos indivíduos, visto que é através da educação que consegue-se ter uma análise crítica mais abrangente acerca do mundo, alcançar possibilidades transformadoras e ter um maior desenvolvimento nas relações interpessoais. Desse modo, a Escola Agrícola de Jundiaí (EAJ), vinculada à Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), localizada em Macaíba no estado do Rio Grande do Norte, cumpre com o conceito anteriormente destacado, porque, mesmo em tempos educacionais complexos, a Instituição atua incansavelmente para efetivar o seu papel social na vida de diversos estudantes ao longo do estado, porque promove um ambiente não só educacional, mas também social que configura-se como justo e igualitário aos seus alunos. Com isso, através da atuação conjunta de integrantes dos Programas Despertando Vocações para Ciências Agrárias (PDVAGRO) e para Tecnologias (PDVT), conseguimos realizar um evento que apresentasse a EAJ para discentes do estado, proporcionando a eles uma experiência afetiva, educativa e inesquecível. Com isso, ao falar sobre a essencialidade da escola para a elaboração do conhecimento social e científico no evento, tornou-se possível democratizar as experiências vividas pelos alunos dentro da Escola, levando aos telespectadores os pilares educacionais da instituição. Em adição, quando os saberes pertencentes à EAJ são levados para o público externo, o local educacional concretiza as suas ações voltadas para para a transformação social e à educação de qualidade que, de acordo com Silva (2021), é uma das funções características do ensino. Por fim, a principal proposta do evento foi a de mostrar aos alunos de outras escolas a importância, para a formação acadêmica e pessoal, de se estudar em uma Instituição Federal e, através dos conhecimentos ensinados, conseguir ser o protagonista da sua própria história.

Com o objetivo de desviar dos métodos utilizados no ensino convencional, este trabalho apresenta uma tecnologia educacional voltada para o ensino de duas teorias sobre a fundamentação da propriedade privada, as quais são: a Teoria Consensual, defendida pelos filósofos Hugo Grócio e Samuel Pufendorf, e a Teoria do Trabalho, defendida por John Locke. A tecnologia educacional em questão, trata-se do desenvolvimento de um jogo digital que aborde os principais conceitos de ambas teorias, tendo em vista que, de acordo com muitos estudiosos da área da educação - como Gisele A. Morgental Falkembach (2006), Marc Prensky (2010) e João Mattar (2010) - a utilização da tecnologia e do lúdico no processo de aprendizagem é eficaz.

Oliveira (2018) define uma serie temporal como uma coleção de observações feitas continuamente no tempo, sendo que essas observações possuem uma dependência entre si. As redes neurais artificiais (RNA), que podem ser definidas segundo Leandro de Castro e Fernando Von Zuben (2001), como uma estrutura de processamento passível de implementação em dispositivos eletrônicos, composta por um número de unidades interconectadas, sendo que cada unidade apresenta um comportamento específico de entrada/saída. O objetivo deste projeto é a criação de uma rede neural artificial para prever séries temporais financeiras, tendo como intenção obter uma previsão precisa e acurada de seus próximos valores e, assim, auxiliar na tomada de decisão.

No começo da pandemia eu tive alguns contratempos ou dificuldades por assim dizer, não só eu, tenho certeza que muitas pessoas tiveram, afinal não tá sendo fácil pra ninguém. A mudança de rotina é um dos muitos problemas que a pandemia trouxe para as pessoas, e a adaptação aos novos meios de trabalho (home office), muitas pessoas que nunca haviam usado um computador para determinadas funções de seu trabalho tiveram que aprender a utilizá lo, já que se fazia necessário e em alguns casos ainda continua sendo necessário. No contexto escolar também houve mudanças para se moldar de acordo com a situação (no meu caso a sala de aula física foi trocada por uma sala de aula virtual, e as interações sociais tiveram que ser substituídas por meio de ferramentas digitais como: WhatsApp, Facebook, Team's,Google Classroom). Ainda segundo Pontes (2021, p.299). Neste cenário de solidão, resultado do distanciamento social por questões sanitárias, as atividades desenvolvidas em ambientes virtuais, sobretudo plataformas de vídeos conferências, ganhou força desde o início da pandemia, tanto como ferramentas de divulgação de conhecimento científico e de educação, como também de aproximação entre discentes e docentes, além de familiares, amigos e profissionais. No início de 2021, durante as minhas atividades estudantis remotas, fui convidado para participar do Programa Despertando Vocações para Tecnologia (PDVT) do Instituto Internacional Despertando Vocações (IDV). O PDVT são grupos de trabalhos que tem o intuito de desenvolver ações que despertem o interesse dos estudantes na área da tecnologia. Este relato tem como objetivo descrever as minhas experiências vivenciadas no PDVT Natal.
PAPO TEM PARÊA NÃO: BASTIDORES DO PROGRAMA

Nunca pensei que faria parte dos bastidores de um programa na minha vida… conhecer tudo que há por trás de uma live, até conhecer o PDVT-Natal. Quando fui convidada por Laércio Medeiros, professor e Coordenador do PDVT-Natal, aceitei “de cara” o convite especial. Foi quando tomei conhecimento das muitas vantagens que se tem em participar do programa do Instituto Internacional Despertando Vocações (IIDV). De imediato, preenchi os formulários e participei de todos os procedimentos, comum a todos iniciantes. Dessa forma, fui muito bem recepcionada pela equipe do PDVT-Natal. Articulamos a construção de uma atividade local que pudesse estimular a criatividade, a inovação tecnológica e a utilização das boas práticas para estimular a proatividade, autonomia e empreendedorismo nas pessoas, isso em meio a uma pandemia seria bem difícil, mas nada impossível, foi quando conheci Papo Tem Parêa Não. O “Papo” foi criado pelos participantes do Projeto, e como o próprio vídeo introdutório do canal PDVT-Natal (2021) informa: um programa com o intuito de entrevistar profissionais e estudantes da área da Tecnologia da Informação e Comunicação (TIC), trazendo um pouco mais para nossa realidade e mostrando onde e como atuam, dando dicas para quem pretende ingressar na área, tudo de maneira descontraída. Reportagem publicada no site do Instituto Significare (2021) traz pesquisa realizada durante a Expo CIEE 2019 informa que dos 6 mil jovens que passaram pelo estande da Cedaspy Professional School (CPS), 60% disseram que têm dúvidas quanto ao futuro profissional, com efeito, esperamos que o programa desperte o interesse da pessoas e assim elas possam ingressar na área da Tecnologia da Informação e Comunicação (TIC). Tal problema nos preocupa e nos fez querer mais ainda realizar as lives para melhorarmos esse dado. O nosso programa acontece através de lives a cada 15 dias, nas sextas-feiras às 20hs no canal youtube do PDVT-Natal. Os membros da equipe convidam pessoas que atuam na área de TIC de alguma forma, seja ela profissional ou hobby. As lives são extremamente enriquecedoras, pois ouvimos experiências de vida, dicas, conselhos e aprendemos cada vez mais.
Drag-out technique using a large balloon fixed with an aspiration catheter for retrieving residual thrombus on the wall of the superior sagittal sinus: illustrative case
Authors: Kojima Daigo , Akamatsu Yosuke , Yoshida Jun , Miyoshi Kenya , Kashimura Hiroshi , Ogasawara Kuniaki
Published: May 2022

BACKGROUND

The authors report a patient with sagittal sinus thrombosis that was resistant to reported endovascular treatments but successfully recanalized by dragging out the thrombus using a large balloon fixed with an aspiration catheter.

OBSERVATIONS

A 57-year-old man presented with the persistent headache and a simple partial seizure. Diagnostic study with computed tomography and angiography demonstrated the superior sagittal sinus (SSS) thrombosis. Due to the neurological worsening even after systemic heparinization, the patient underwent mechanical thrombectomy. Despite six passes of stent retrievers and a large-bore aspiration catheter, functional recanalization was not achieved. Therefore, the so-called dental floss technique was attempted using a large compliant balloon catheter (Transform 7 × 7 mm). However, the balloon catheter just wobbled along the lesion without recanalization. To restrict the movement of the balloon catheter, the distal shaft of the balloon catheter was fixed with the aspiration catheter, and both the balloon and the aspiration catheter were slowly pulled to drag the thrombus out, resulting in recanalization of cortical veins as well as the SSS.

LESSONS

Dragging the thrombus using a large balloon fixed with an aspiration catheter was a useful technique to retrieve sticky thrombus in the patients with the sinus thrombosis.
Magnetic resonance imaging–guided laser interstitial thermal therapy for refractory focal epilepsy in a patient with a fully implanted RNS system: illustrative case
Authors: Buch Vivek P. , Mirro Emily A. , Purger David A. , Zeineh Michael , Wilmer-Fierro Kaitlyn , Razavi Babak , Halpern Casey H.
Published: May 2022

BACKGROUND

The resective surgery plus responsive neurostimulation (RNS) system is an effective treatment for patients with refractory focal epilepsy. Furthermore, the long-term intracranial electroencephalography data provided by the system can inform a future resection or ablation procedure. RNS patients may undergo 1.5-T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) under the conditions specified in the RNS system MRI guidelines; however, it was unknown if the MRI artifact would limit intraoperative laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) in a patient with a fully implanted RNS system.

OBSERVATIONS

The authors were able to complete a successful awake LITT of epileptogenic tissue in a 1.5-T MRI scanner on the ipsilateral side to an implanted RNS system.

LESSONS

If a future LITT procedure is probable, the neurostimulator should be placed contralateral to the side of the potential ablation. Using twist drill holes versus burr holes for depth lead placement may assist in future laser bone anchor seating. Before a LITT procedure in a patient with the neurostimulator ipsilateral to the ablation, 1.5-T MRI thermography scanning should be scheduled preoperatively to assess artifact in the proposed ablation zone. Per the RNS system MRI guidelines, the patient must be positioned supine and awake, with no more than 30 minutes of active scan time before a 30-minute pause.
Assessing Sudan's Electoral Legal Framework
Authors: Elnour Abdelkarim Zeinab
Published: May 2022

Assessing Sudanʼs Electoral Legal Framework provides an in-depth insight and analysis of Sudanʼs current legal framework for elections. It measures Sudanʼs legal electoral framework against a common international understanding of the principles, norms and obligations that define credible and democratic elections. The objective of this analysis is not to criticize or pass judgement on the countryʼs existing electoral processes; instead, it offers an unbiased assessment of how Sudanʼs existing electoral laws and country context create an enabling or disabling environment for free and fair elections. It provides comprehensive and constructive recommendations to strengthen existing legislation and improve fairness, uniformity, reliability, consistency and professionalism in Sudanʼs future elections. This Report also assesses the status of core democratic principles and freedoms that provide the foundation for credible elections and highlights any restrictions on these fundamental rights and liberties that could interfere with the countryʼs upcoming elections or delay its political transition. It calls upon the transitional government to protect citizensʼ rights and liberties and prevent abuses that may influence public trust, fairness, and openness of electoral and other transitional processes. Lastly, this Report discusses political, socio-economic, and legal issues impacting Sudanʼs roadmap to democratic transition before the October 2021 military coup.
