Obtaining Bioemulsions Structured as "Networks" by Innovative Technologies
Authors: Simion Demetra , Gaidău Carmen , Păun Gabriela , Stanca Maria , Berechet Daniela
Published: January 2023

New bioemulsions structured like “networks” were created by innovative technologies based on: elastin/zinc hydroxide/ (bolaamphiphiles mixture: bis [2-butyl (sodium bis-thioacetate) sodium dicarboxylate 1,10 decanediyl ester] and/or sucrose diester)/ acetic acid/water, for improved surface properties development with applications in leather industry. We used in this research two “bolaamphiphiles”. Bolaamphiphilic molecules contain a hydrophobic skeleton (e.g., one, two, or three alkyl chains, a steroid, or a porphyrin) and two water-soluble groups on both ends. The interaction of surfactants with biopolymers in aqueous medium results in the formation of different association structures. There are various morphologies of biopolymer-surfactant association complexes depending on the molecular structure of the biopolymer and surfactant, on the nature of interaction forces between solvents and surfactant or biopolymer. The innovation consists in the technologies for obtaining novel micro and nanostructured bioemulsions, and the compatibilisation with film forming polymers for leather surface finishing. Elastin/zinc hydroxide micro and nanocomposites have been stabilized with bolaamphiphilic surfactants mixture: bis [2-butyl (sodium bis-thioacetate) sodium dicarboxylate 1,10 decanediyl ester and sucrose diester in a 1:1 acetic acid/water ratio, to increase the uniformity of nanocomposites. Micro and nanostructured composites like “networks” developed as a result of biopolymer-surfactants interactions for elastin/zinc hydroxide/surfactants mixture couple in acetic acid/water system are reported by SEM microscopy and DLS analysis. A special class of micro and nanoarchitectures is represented by structures organized as “network” assemblies. The novel micro and nanocomposites can provide the hybrid film with increased resistance to rubbing and water, and to deformation. Environmentally-friendly substrates with smart multifunctional features can be obtained for various applications.

Published: January 2023

There are several laser or structured-light based foot scanners available on the market, which can be used to obtain accurate 3D foot models. Compared to those 3D scanning devices, TrueDepth cameras are portable, inexpensive and easy-to-use. However, the accuracy and reliability of their 3D foot scanning remain to be confirmed. This study aimed to verify the validity and reliability of structured light TrueDepth camera integrated into the mobile phone when it is used for foot measurement. Thirteen students without any kinds of foot abnormalities or foot diseases were recruited and their feet were measured by both Infoot 3D foot scanner and mobile phone with TrueDepth camera. Three parameters were measured including foot length, foot breadth and ball girth. Subsequently, the reliability and validity of the two methods were assessed by linear regression analyses, intraclass Correlation Coefficient and Bland-Altman analysis. The foot breadth and girth circumference measurements all showed high coefficients of determination (R2>0.8) between the two methods and three measurements indicated good to excellent agreements (ICCs>0.9), although the length measurement was reported without significant coefficients of determination. Further, findings from Bland-Altman analysis demonstrated that the measurements from the TrueDepth camera had good agreements with those from Infoot and they could be used interchangeably. However, with the reconstruction algorithm updating in the near future, we could foresee the promotion in foot length measurement when using the TrueDepth camera from the phone. The TrueDepth camera utilizing structured-light and the customized application for foot measurement has fast, accurate and low-cost features and it is a convenient and economical method to obtain the foot 3D model. It can be widely applied for medical purposes and customization.

Authors: Zhang Liwei
Published: January 2023

In this paper, the biomass graphene fibre industrialisation project is taken as the research object. Moreover, the development characteristics of the project in the field of industrial application and the financial status of the current company are taken into comprehensive consideration. The financial data from 2014 to 2018 are selected for quantitative analysis. First of all, this paper specifically divides the risk into four dimensions, depending upon the project’s financial status, which involves financing risk, investment risk, business risk, and other risks These are analyzed and studied from the internal and external causes of enterprise risk. Secondly, by comparing various research methods, the author chooses the TOPSIS entropy weight method suitable for H Company to analyse its data in the past 5 years and identifies the main risk points faced by enterprises in the industry according to entropy weight. The results show that the risk index for each year is: 2017 > 2021 > 2019 > 2020 > 2018. In early 2017, the average financial status of all companies in the development of the whole project industry was at the bottom point, but in 2015, there was a huge improvement in the financial situation, and in 2019, it stabilised after the decline of the average safety index. At the same time, the average total assets of each company in the biomass graphene fibre industrialisation project showed an increasing trend from 2017 to 2021, with the most significant increase in 2019 (514.135 million yuan), an increase of 119.14% compared to 2018. Thirdly, the average value of debt also reached the highest in 2019, with the value of debt reaching 383.248 million yuan, an increase of 427.54% compared to 2018. The risk assessment system proposed in this paper provides good guidance for the risk assessment of biomass graphene fibre industrialisation projects.
International Liability Regime for Pollution of Marine Environment from Ships
Authors: Vereina L. V.
Published: January 2023

INTRODUCTION.The 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea imposes obligations on states to protect and preserve the marine environment. They are responsible under international law. In order to ensure prompt and adequate compensation for all damage caused by marine pollution, states shall cooperate in implementing existing international law concerning liability and in developing procedures for adequate compensation, such as liability insurance or compensation funds  

MATERIALS AND METHODS.In the article the author analyzes international treaties that form the basis of the regime of international legal liability for marine pollution from ships, such as the Oil Pollution Damage Convention 1969, the International Convention on Liability and Compensation for Damage in Connection with the Carriage of Hazardous and Noxious Substances by Sea 1996, the International Convention on Civil Liability for Bunker Fuel Pollution Damage 2001. The research is based on general scientific methods of knowledge (system and structural approaches, analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction), as well as special methods used in legal science (comparative legal, historical legal and formal dogmatic).  

RESEARCH RESULTS.Based on the analysis carried out, the author came to the following research results: Together the three conventions - the CSA, the COW and the Bunker Convention - form a single regime of liability for marine pollution, the source of which are ships, and strive for identity of all definitions in order to avoid inconsistencies in their interpretation.  

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS.In the course of the analysis, the author referred to the debatable points expressed in the scientific literature concerning the completeness of the legal regulation of liability for marine pollution from ships. After which the author made a conclusion that, although a significant amount of marine pollution accounts for pollution from ships, the existing international legal mechanisms for regulating liability issues in this area can be regarded as sufficient.

Published: January 2023

Objectives: This study aimed to determine the level of knowledge and attitude toward kidney donation, in the Western region of Saudi Arabia.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 1,233 participants. An online questionnaire was used to collect data about participants' demographics, chronic diseases, having a relative with kidney failure, and knowledge and attitude toward kidney donation.
Results: Almost 50.9% of participants were aware of difficulties associated with kidney donation, and 93.6% had heard about it. Around 93% of them said that social media is the best way to spread knowledge about kidney donation, but 58.2% of them did not know how common renal failure following kidney donation is for healthy donors. About 66.5% of people were willing to donate a kidney. The main justification for people who declined kidney donation was concern over not receiving the required medical care. Participants who were younger, female, working in the private sector, single, without chronic illnesses, and eager to take part in a lecture on "Kidney Donation" had a high prior awareness rate of kidney donation. A high percentage of participants who had previously heard about donation had a good attitude toward donation and awareness of kidney donation legislation and restrictions.
Conclusion: Raising awareness about kidney donation should be done through medical personnel, hospital settings, and a clear message on social and mass media should be regularized.

Published: January 2023

Cardiac tamponade is a medical emergency and is the most serious complication of pericardial effusion. The authors describe two case reports with different etiologies, in adolescence. 17 years old female patient, goes to the emergency department due to polyarthralgia, chest pain, orthopnea and fatigue. At observation: fever, tachycardia, decreased cardiac sounds, decreased pulmonary sounds in bases and tibio-tarsal joint edema. Chest radiography: cardiomegaly and bilateral interstitial infiltrate; electrocardiogram: ST elevation; echocardiogram: massive pericardial effusion (“swinging heart”). Pericardiocentesis was performed, with no significant changes in the pericardial fluid. Therapy with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and colchicine was started. Further investigation led to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) diagnosis and improvement happened after correct therapy. 16-year-old male patient with Crohns disease under azathioprine and adalimumab, goes to the emergency department due fever, cough and chest pain. Three days before he had started amoxicillin-clavulanic acid for pneumonia. At observation he was tachycardic, with decreased cardiac sounds, decreased right breath sounds and painful abdomen on palpation. Thoraco-abdominal ultrasound: pleural effusion, hepatomegaly, splenic nodules, adenopathies in the celiac trunk. 72 hours after admission, under triple antibiotical therapy, there was clinical worsening and a thoracoabdominal CT was performed: pericardial and pleural effusion, mediastinal adenomegalies, hepatosplenomegaly, splenic lesions. Echocardiogram: pericardial effusion with collapse of the right cavities. Pericardial fluid showed an adenosine deaminase (ADA) of 53U/L. Clinical improvement after therapy for tuberculosis was started. Clinical suspicion is essential for a rapid therapeutic intervention, with echocardiography being the gold standard.

إن الرزق يُعد من أكثر المواضيع الحساسة في حياة النّاس كافة، لذلك كان جوهر البحث منصبا في هذه الجزئية، وقد خلق الله تعالى الإنسان وهيّأ له من الأسباب ما يضمن بقاءه على هذه المعمورة، ولأجل ذلك سخر الله تعالى الأرض وما عليها من دواب وأنعام وجماد للإنسان وهيء له كل السبل والطرق التي تساعده على استغلال الأرض واستخراج ما فيها من الخيرات؛ فأنزل الله تعالى الأمطار، وهذا ايضا رزق ما سقى الارض وأنبتَ الأشجار، وساق للإنسان رزقه المكتوب له أينما كان، ولا يرتبط الرزق بالمال فحسب؛ بل يرتبط بكافة نواحي الحياة التي يحتاجها الإنسان، وقد حث الله تعالى عباده على السعي لطلب الرزق، وهذه دعوة صريحة للسَّعي إلى الرزق، وقد توصل البحث إلى جملة نتائج، منها:
1ـــــــ الرزق هو الاسم أو الوصف الدال على ما يساق من الله  من صنوف النعم وأنواع الخيرات .
2ـــــــــ يؤمن المسلمون بأن رزق الله  يشمل الخلق أجمعين، دون الاقتصار على أحد، فهو شامل للإنسان والحيوان معاً .
3ــ من الأسباب التي تجلب الرزق للعبد هي حسن التوكل على الله تعالى والإنفاق في سبيل الله  وصلة الرحم والسعي في الطريق الصحيح لكسب الحلال الطيب، وهذه الأسباب في مجموعها هي أسباب مادية .

External spacecraft materials play an important role in satellite protection from the harsh space environment. Research has shown that the physical, chemical, and optical properties of matter change continuously as a result of exposure to solar radiation and aggressive chemical species produced in Earth’s upper atmosphere. Thorough knowledge of the material properties’ evolution throughout a planned mission lifetime helps to improve the reliability of spacecraft. Moreover, the establishment of correlation factors between true space exposure and accelerated space weather experiments at ground facilities enables accurate prediction of on-orbit material performance based on laboratory-based testing. The presented work aims to evaluate the radiation effects of a low-Earth-orbit environment, namely, exposure to the high-energy electrons and atomic oxygen (AO) of heritage and novel spacecraft material selection. The studied materials represent the “flight duplicates” of samples that are launched as a part of the 16th Materials International Space Station Experiment Flight Facility (MISSE-FF) mission in 2022.
Comparison of Edge Vortices from Normal and Elliptic Flapping Flat Plates
Authors: Nair Vivek , Chintamani Siddarth , Dennis Brian H.
Published: January 2023

Computational analysis of elliptic and normal flat plate geometries, sized to wings of small fliers and in a two-dimensional plunging–pitching–flapping motion resulting in hover, is conducted to investigate circulation growth at the leading-edge vortex (LEV) and trailing-edge vortex (TEV). The models are sized to the same aspect ratio, and a Reynolds number of 225 is chosen as it is similar to that observed in small fliers in hover. Results show similar LEV growth and lift production trends for both cases but with differing energy flux mechanisms. A vorticity transport analysis is done to quantify these energy fluxes. The LEV growth and shearing is closely related to the TEV growth and shearing, and the plunging–pitching profile, while the geometry plays a role in the magnitude of vortex creation and intensity of spanwise fluxes only.
Observações culturais sobre Macrembolites, Das aventuras de Hismine e Hismínias - Estudo, introdução, tradução do grego, notas e índices (livros 1 a 5)
Authors: Troca Pereira Reina Marisol
Published: January 2023

Drama romanesco sentimental de certa forma subversivo reportado a E. Macrembolites, no duodécimo século do período bizantino. Desenvolvido em 11 partes, Hismínias reconta, qual epopeia com contornos trágicos, o conturbado processo amoroso que o liga a Hismine, desde o início, aventuras itinerantes e retorno. Prosa em língua grega monologada simples, descritiva, repetitiva, irrompe a passividade, qual encenação, com citações e participação de um elenco evocado em discurso indireto livre. De permeio, o retomar de topoi de pendor religioso e sócio-cultural da Antiguidade Clássica por certo do conhecimento e agrado do público, uma tónica de paganismo em contexto judaico-cristão. Após múltiplas peripécias e contacto com a barbárie etíope e helénica, ressaltam mormente o acolhimento de hóspedes e suplicantes, comportamentos varonis e femininos, afetos, servidão(-ões), religiosidade no templo, o cerimonial das Diásias, domínios divinos. Por fim, numa estrutura em círculo que conduz e justifica a preservação, o mesmo equivale a dizer imortalização da história relatada numa sequência tripartida por um narrador descrente, depois herói vitimizado até ao crente submisso erguido como conservador, enquanto escritor.

Published: January 2023

Bu araştırmanın amacını lider üye etkileşimi ve ücret düzeyinden duyulan tatminin işten ayrılma niyeti üzerindeki etkilerini tespit etmektir. Çalışmanın evrenini Balıkesir İl Milli Eğitim Müdürlüğü ana binasında görev yapan 212 personel oluşturmaktadır. Çalışmanın örneklemini ise aynı kurumda çalışmakta olan 161 personel oluşturmaktadır. Veriler, demografik bilgiler, lider üye etkileşimi ölçeği, ücret tatmini ölçeği ve işten ayrılma niyeti ölçeklerinin yer aldığı anket formu kullanarak yüz yüze şekilde toplanmıştır. Araştırmaya kurumda görev yapan 161 personel katılım sağlamıştır. Verilerin analizi için bir paket programı kullanılmış ve veriler çoklu korelasyon ve çoklu regresyon analizlerine tabi tutulmuştur. Yapılan çoklu korelasyon analizinin neticesine göre işten ayrılma niyeti ile lider üye etkileşimi arasında negatif yönlü ve anlamlı ilişkilerin olduğu görülmüştür. Ancak işten ayrılma niyetiyle ücret tatmini ve ücret tatmini ile lider üye etkileşimi arasında anlamlı ilişkiler bulunamamıştır. Yapılan çoklu regresyon analizinin neticesine göre ücret tatminin işten ayrılma niyeti üzerinde anlamlı etkisinin olmadığı görülmüştür. Araştırmanın diğer bir sonucu ise işten ayrılma niyeti üzerinde sadece lider-üye etkileşiminin negatif yönlü ve anlamlı bir etkiye sahip olduğunu belirtmektedir. Çalışmanın son bölümünde sonuçlar yorumlanıp, tartışılmıştır. Araştırmanın literatüre ve diğer uygulayıcılara katkılar sağlayacağı umulmaktadır.
Effect of fuel type on maritime transportation's pollution: An EEOI application
Authors: MİLLET Yeşim , FİDAN Yahya , ÖZ Sabri
Published: January 2023

The globalizing world naturally causes an increase in transportation activities. Reasons such as technological developments, increasing demands and globalization bring acceleration in transportation and production activities. With the increase in the use of vehicles and machinery, there is an increase in the damage to the environment, especially due to the use of fossil fuels. The fact that the damage to the environment reaches irreparable levels necessitates taking precautions. Fossil fuels are the main cause of emissions from ships in maritime transport. Reducing the cruising speed of the ship, using the fuel type that causes less emission, increasing energy efficiency, and making a weather-dependent cruise plan are the solutions to reduce emissions. In this study, the CO2 emissions of 30 ships are calculated with the EEOI method and compared with the fuel types used in the ships. In the study, it is seen that the preferred fuel type for ships is directly related to carbon emissions.

Putin’in dikey iktidar stratejisi ve Rusya’da potansiyel federalizmin sonu
Authors: OĞUZ Mustafa Cem
Published: January 2023

Rusya’da federalizm ve demokrasi ilişkisini ele alan bu çalışmada 1991-1998 arasındaki dönemin Rusya federalizmi açısından bir kırılma anı olduğu iddia edilecek ve her türlü kusuruna rağmen bu dönemdeki gelişmelerin özel olarak federalizmin, genel olarak demokratikleşme için çok önemli fırsatlar yarattığı savunulacaktır. Yine bu hat üzerinden 1990ların “potansiyel federalizminin”, 2000lerin başında Putin’in “Dikey İktidar” stratejisi ile henüz gelişemeden yok edildiği iddia edilecektir. Çalışmanın bulguları ise şu şekildedir; 1998 ekonomik krizinin ardından iktidarın yeniden merkezde toplanması ve böylece istikrara kavuşulması Rusya elitleri arasında yaygın bir kabul görmüştür. Bu talep üzerinden iktidara gelen Putin başkanlığının ilk dört yılında federalizmi boğmuş ve otoriter bir rejim inşa etmiştir. Bunu yaparken de farklı politikalara ve kurumlara başvurmuştur. Öncelikle federe birimleri 7 coğrafi bölgeye ayırarak her bir bölgenin başına kendisinin atadığı süper valileri getirmiş, böylece merkezin, özellikle cumhuriyetler üzerindeki vesayetini artırmıştır. Valilerin doğal üyesi olduğu Federasyon Konseyi’nin yapısını değiştirerek, onları konseyden çıkarmış ve Moskova siyaseti üzerindeki tesirlerini yok etmiştir. Ayrıca özerk Cumhuriyetlerin anayasalarının, Federal yasa ve anayasaya uygun olmasını zorunlu kılmıştır. 2004 yılında ise valilik seçimlerini kaldırmış ve doğrudan atama usulüne geçmiştir. Son olarak tüm federe birimlerde örgütlü olan hegemonik bir parti inşa ederek, bölgesel yasama organlarını da kontrolü altına almıştır.

The current literature data on the metabolic effects of ethionine in mammalian cells, as well as the results of our own research are summarized in the present paper. Ethionine is an S-ethyl analogue of methionine that prevents the methylation of macromolecules (DNA, RNA, proteins and lipids). It has carcinogenic properties and inhibits the growth of certain microorganisms in the gastrointestinal tract. Competing with methionine at the stage of translation, ethionine reduces the specific activity of the protein. The extreme toxicity of ethionine is explained by the need for methionine in many biosynthetic and regulatory processes. At the organ level (in vivo), the intake of ethionine causes fatty degeneration of the liver (“nutmeg” liver) and acute pancreatitis; it also induces the development of liver carcinoma. Ethionine has a negative effect on the proliferation of lymphocytes, it completely suppresses DNA synthesis in lymphocytes stimulated by phytohemagglutinin or concanavalin A. This methionine analog inhibits tRNA methylation and prevents the increase in the activity of histone-modifying enzymes caused by the mitogen. The cessation of ethionine intake leads to a fast synchronous wave of DNA synthesis, an increase in the rate of RNA methylation, as well as a rise in the activity of histone-modifying enzymes. Given the multifaceted effect of ethionine on metabolic processes, it can be assumed that its potential as an antimetabolite of methionine is underestimated and further research is needed in this direction.

Background. Acute abdominal pain in children is defined as acute pain of non-traumatic genesis lasting up to 5-7 days, and presents a serious diagnostic and tactical problem. Many aspects of diagnosis and treatment remain controversial. Aim. To determine the clinical significance of polymorphonuclear neutrophil count in the stratification of children with acute abdominal pain. Material and Methods. A prospective randomized blind clinical trial was performed. The results of examination and treatment of 633 children admitted to Grodno Regional Children's Clinical Hospital with acute abdominal pain were analyzed. The number of polymorphonuclear neutrophils was analyzed in relative (PNRV) and absolute (PNAV) values. Statistics included evidence-based criteria, ROC and precision-recall curve analysis, Kullback's measure of informativeness (Jxi), Bayes' theorem. Results. Separation points were determined for the PNRV and PNAV tests. It was 65% for the PNRV test and 8.952×109/L for the PNAV test. For PNRV values less than 65%, the probability of acute appendicitis (AA) as a cause of acute abdominal pain was 1.8% (CI 0.2 to 3.4); the overall informative value was 2.94. With PNAV test values less than 6.5×109/L, the probability of AA was 1.2% (CI 0.03 to 2.4%); the overall informative value was 5.24. It was demonstrated that an increase in test values above the indicated values did not significantly increase the probability of AA as a cause of acute abdominal pain in children. Conclusion. The tests studied are highly informative and can be used to stratify patients with acute abdominal pain. It is necessary to validate the results obtained taking into account the specific capabilities of a given medical institution and the type of equipment used.
