Published: October 2024

Management understanding and knowledge of environmental accounting, especially related to waste management and energy efficiency, is very important to achieve business sustainability, including for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). The Tambakrejo MSME group often lacks understanding of milkfish waste management and faces increasing energy operational costs, especially for refrigerators. Lack of environmental awareness causes milkfish waste to pollute the environment and hinder water drains. Environmental accounting integrates environmental aspects in accounting practices to measure, report, and manage environmental impacts. This Community Service educates about waste management strategies and energy efficiency based on environmental accounting principles. The results of Community Service have a positive impact, the enthusiasm of MSME actors is very high, this is evidenced through pre and post testing measuring tools for MSMEs with the results of the increasing level of public understanding of environmental awareness and energy saving in MSMEs, as well as teaching environmental cost management methods through identification, recognition, measurement, reporting, and integration of environmental aspects in the accounting system.

Abstract
Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of tea tree oil obtained from leaves and terminal branchlets of Melaleuca alternifolia (Maiden & Betche) Cheel when used as a sensory additive for all animal species. The EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) concluded that tea tree oil was very unlikely to be of safety concern for long‐living and reproductive animals and is of no concern for target species for fattening at the following concentrations in complete feed: 1.1 mg/kg for chickens for fattening, 1.5 mg/kg for turkeys for fattening, 1.7 mg/kg for laying hens, 2.0 mg/kg for piglets, 2.4 mg/kg for pigs for fattening, 3.1 mg/kg for sows, 5.0 mg/kg for veal calves (milk replacer) and salmonids, 4.4 mg/kg for cattle for fattening, sheep/goats and horses, 2.9 mg/kg for dairy cows, 1.8 mg/kg for rabbits, 0.9 mg/kg for cats, 5.3 mg/kg for dogs, 6.6 for crustaceans and 15 mg/kg for ornamental fish. These conclusions were extrapolated to other physiologically related species. For any other species, the additive is very unlikely to be of safety concern at 1.1 mg/kg complete feed. No concerns for consumers and the environment were identified following the use of the additive up to the highest safe use level in feed. Regarding user safety, tea tree oil should be considered as an irritant to skin and eyes and as a dermal and respiratory sensitiser. It is classified as a reprotoxic substance (category 1B) following CLP criteria and should be handled accordingly. Since M. alternifolia and its preparations were recognised to flavour food and its function in feed would be essentially the same as that in food, no further demonstration of efficacy was considered necessary.

RESEARCH STUDY OF SAINT POETRY TRADITION IN NIRGUN BHAKTI STREAM
Authors: Kumar Kamlesh , Mishra Shrikant
Published: October 2024

The scholars divided Bhakti literature into four streams- Gyanashrayi, Premashrayi, Ramashrayi and Krishnaashrayi. In this literature, Gyanashrayi stream is also recognized as Sant Kavya stream. Sant Kavya tradition was started by Kabir. Names of many saints are taken in this tradition. Its tradition is an example of the oldest tradition of Bhakti poetry. After taking Guru Diksha from Raghavanand, Ramanand started Ramavat Sampradaya. It is said that due to proximity with Shri Sampradaya, the difference between the two almost ended. Their basic mantra is 'Ram' or 'Sita Ram' and the deity is 'Shri Ram'. Their Ram, despite being formless and without attributes, takes incarnation for the welfare of the devotees. His twelve disciples are also called 'Mahabhagvat'. Among his disciples, there were Nirgunavadi saints like Saint Kabirdas, Raidas, Sennai, on the other hand, there were also Vaishnav Brahmin Sagunopasak Acharya devotees like Swami Anantanand, Bhavanand, Sursuranand, Narharyanand, who were full supporters of incarnation and worshiped idols.

Authors: Altay Osman
Published: October 2024

This study aims to conduct a comparative analysis of the relationship between policy interest rates declared by the Federal Reserve and Bitcoin prices, taking into account both pre and post-COVID-19 periods. Employing a robust analytical framework based on Vector Error Correction Model, scrutinizing each phase individually. In the pre-COVID-19 period, a notable VECM coefficient of -0.03 for Bitcoin variable implies shock stabilization after approximately 33 weeks, while the FED Policy Rate variable lacks significance in the return-to-balance mechanism. Conversely, the post-COVID-19 period unveils a substantial -0.08 VECM coefficient for Bitcoin, signaling a shock returning to balance in around 12.5 weeks. Furthermore, the FED Policy Rate exhibits a noteworthy -0.13 VECM coefficient, indicating shock stabilization after about 7.7 weeks. These findings suggest a growing acceptance of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as conventional investment tools, propelled by the circumstances of the COVID-19 period.

Automatic Recognition of Bio-Colonization Processes on Historic Facades: Application on Case Studies
Authors: Monni Francesco , Gianangeli Andrea , Quagliarini Enrico
Published: October 2024

Many factors (physical, chemical, natural, and human activities) contribute to the degradation of historic buildings. Preventive conservation is a cost-effective approach international preservation bodies recommend to mitigate risks to built cultural heritage. A substantial challenge is bio-colonization, especially by microalgae, which affects brick-facing masonry surfaces due to environmental factors (i.e., temperature and moisture), leading to progressively increasing deterioration. Early detection systems could be useful to reduce damage from these organisms. Advances in computer vision and machine learning, such as convolutional neural networks, offer promising solutions for automating the identification of building pathologies using image collection. This research focuses on developing predictive models using convolutional neural networks to monitor bio-deterioration on historic facades, specifically targeting early-stage microalgae colonization. After a training phase using laboratory-induced bio-colonization on brick samples, the method was applied to real case studies of architecturally significant buildings affected by bio-colonization. In fact, a substantial number of digital images of these buildings, even if taken for other purposes, are available. The work shows that analyzing these images with the trained network facilitates the early detection of bio-colonization, providing a contribution to the field of built cultural heritage conservation.

Authors: Trento Armando , Woessner Uwe , Kieferle Joachim B. , Fiamma Paolo
Published: October 2024

Planning and realising a large sculpture in a heritage public space requires succeeding in diverse, sometimes contrasting, multidisciplinary objectives. This paper reports on a research project developed to support the communication, engineering and construction of a permanent sculptural masterpiece within the public historic centre of Rome. While the entire process of creating the art piece is explained, the main emphasis is on the experimental application of various technologies such as Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), Laser Scanning, Virtual Reality (VR), Parametric Modelling and Numerical Simulations. These technologies were utilised due to the size of the sculpture and the peculiarities of the context. The primary focus of this study is to develop and implement a workflow that can enhance collaboration and efficiency among stakeholders like artists, clients, engineers, urbanists, archaeologists, art foundry fabricators, and public authorities. The project adopted an action research methodology because of its strategic ability to connect experimentation and practice in order to address a realistic cross-disciplinary problem in its actual context.

Authors: Abdioğlu Nida , Gürsoy Merve , Aytekin Sinan
Published: October 2024

The factors that affect intellectual capital creation at firms and how these factors influence the financial performance of firms have been core questions of extant work in the channels of finance for many years. In this period, therefore, the efforts that firms make to increase their intellectual capital to create value and studies that examine the impact of the increased intellectual capital on the firm’s financial performance are notable. Thus, this study aims to explore the influence of intellectual capital and its components on the financial performance of the BIST Sustainability Index companies for the period between 2018:Q4-2024:Q1. A set of Intellectual Value Added Coefficient (VAIC) and its components Human Capital Efficiency (HCE), Structural Capital Efficiency (SCE), and Capital Employed Efficiency (CEE) are employed as indicators of intellectual capital. The financial performance is measured through Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Capital Employed (ROCE). Control variables included in each model are Market to Book Value (MV/BV), Logarithm of Total Assets (SIZE), and Asset Turnover (ATR). The fixed effects regression results show that an increase in the intellectual capital of the companies listed in the BIST Sustainability Index has a positive effect on their financial performance.

ChatGPT as therapy: A qualitative and network-based thematic profiling of shared experiences, attitudes, and beliefs on Reddit
Authors: Collins Amanda C , Lekkas Damien , Heinz Michael V. , Annor Janelle , Ruan Franklin , Jacobson Nicholas C.
Published: October 2024

In recent years, large language models (LLMs), including ChatGPT, have exponentially grown in application. Given existing barriers to mental health services, alongside the capability of LLMs to generate therapeutic responses, LLMs have potential to serve as accessible precursors, adjuncts, or alternatives to traditional therapy. However, little is known about the opinions of persons who have used LLMs for mental health-related problems. Thus, the current work investigated the positive and negative experiences of those who have interacted with ChatGPT for their mental health using posts from relevant Reddit threads (N = 1,594). A 33-item coding scheme was applied to code the presence/absence of each item, and coded posts were modeled using an Ising network graph to explore pairwise and groupwise thematic associations of items. Results from the qualitative coding indicated that the codes representing positive sentiment, experiencing affect/emotion, and attaining personal benefit from using ChatGPT for therapy were among the most frequently coded. Moreover, the Ising network model revealed the most important associations in the network between items representing positive experiences, negative experiences, and specific pathologies. Taken together, the current study indicates that, while users endorse several benefits from using ChatGPT for their mental health, they also report significant drawbacks, including restrictions by ChatGPT that can harm them or exacerbate their symptoms. Thus, ChatGPT may be a useful tool for persons not able to receive standard care, but it may not be as beneficial for persons with more severe pathologies or mental health concerns.
Intersectionality Within the LGBTIQ+ Context: Discrimination, Identification, and Negative Affect
Authors: Heilmann Simone , Hässler Tabea , Theissing Leo , Eisner Léïla
Published: October 2024

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, intersex, or queer (LGBTIQ+) people with intersecting disadvantaged group memberships (e.g., LGBTIQ+ people of color) face discrimination within both their disadvantaged groups. This preregistered study investigates the impact of interminority ingroup discrimination (i.e., discrimination when one is discriminated against by one’s own disadvantaged group because of one’s membership in another disadvantaged group) on negative affect among LGBTIQ+ people with an additional disadvantaged group membership in either the ‘ethnic’ (N = 203) or ‘health disparity’ context (N = 545). Building on the rejection-identification model, the study additionally explores the indirect effects of interminority ingroup discrimination on negative affect via identification with the devalued or discriminating group. Results from the ethnic context reveal that interminority ingroup discrimination, originating from both the LGBTIQ+ and ethnic groups, is associated with higher negative affect. However, in the health disparity context, this is true only for discrimination coming from LGBTIQ+ people against the health disparity group. No indirect effects of interminority ingroup discrimination via group identification on negative affect were observed. The study highlights the need to identify those affected by interminority ingroup discrimination and the reasons behind it to develop effective interventions for more inclusive and aware communities. Further implications and limitations of the study are discussed.

Published: October 2024

Abstract: Land compatibility can contribute to the optimization of agricultural land use, because this evaluation is used to determine the most appropriate spatial plan for current and future land use. Identifying the suitability of agricultural land is necessary to adapt to increasing food needs caused by expanding population, environmental pollution and climate change. Therefore, this research was conducted to assess the suitability of snake fruit plants. Various factors were considered in this research, such as rainfall, temperature, nutrient availability (wa), rainfall density (rc), organic carbon (nr), slope, flood hazard (fh) and erosion hazard (eh). The results of the classification of land suitability classes in the Sleman Regency area, in this case, are that snake fruit plants in most areas fall into the criteria for land suitability class S2 or quite suitable. The results are with an area of??42,150 Ha or with a percentage of 73.4% of the land suitability class S2 or Sufficiently Suitable. (Medium Suitable) is land that has quite heavy barriers to maintain the level of management that must be carried out. In the land suitability class S1 or very suitable in the research area with an area of?? 10625 Ha or with a percentage of 18.5, the land suitability class Very Suitable (Very Suitable) is land that has no boundaries. The results of the land suitability assessment, both actual and potential, can be carried out by improving efforts such as improving drainage, adding organic material, planting according to contours, fertilizing.

Analysis of The Leading Sector for Regional Development: A Case Study of Batam, Bintan, and Karimun (BBK), Riau Islands Province, Indonesia
Authors: Wahyuni Sri , Siregar Hermanto , Rustiadi Ernan , Pravitasari Andrea Emma
Published: October 2024

Abstract: Spatial planning in Batam, Bintan, and Karimun (BBK) areas is prioritized because it has an important impact on the national economy. This research aims to identify the potential leading sectors in the BBK areas as a reference in regional development. This study uses time series data on Gross Regional Domestic Product (GRDP) based on constant prices in the BBK areas from 2011 to 2021. The analytical tools used in this research are Location Quotient to identify basic and non-basic sectors, Shift Share Analysis to determine changes and shifts in sectors, and Klassen Typology to determine the classification of sector in each region. The three analytical tools combined results demonstrate that economic growth in Batam is supported by the processing sector. A growing sector in Bintan is related to the tourism. Economic potential in Karimun dominated by the agricultural, forestry, and marine sectors. Tanjungpinang’s economic potential is dominated by the service sector, which supports the city’s role as the capital of the Riau Islands Province. However, the fisheries sector has not developed optimally. As an archipelago, regional development policies in the BBK areas should develop other sectors to optimize the maritime economic potential.

Dural manipulation coinciding with transient asystole during lumbar spine surgery: illustrative case
Authors: Hernandez Ever A , Sherman Jonathan H
Published: October 2024

BACKGROUND

Hemodynamic disturbances during lumbar spine surgeries have proven to be exceptionally rare, with only seven published cases demonstrating instances where intraoperative dural manipulation coincided with bradycardia, hypotension, and/or asystole.

OBSERVATIONS

The authors present the case of a 39-year-old male with a history of chronic low-back pain and leg weakness. Imaging demonstrated a disc herniation at L5–S1, resulting in impingement of the left S1 traversing nerve root. The patient agreed to surgery. The preoperative workup was unremarkable. While retracting the S1 nerve root, transient asystole occurred when the S1 nerve root was manipulated, causing the patient’s heart rate to drop from 51 to 0 bpm. Manipulating the nerve root once again triggered a similar event, and upon cessation of the surgical stimulus, the patient’s heart rate spontaneously returned to baseline. Other potential causes of these hemodynamic perturbations were excluded.

As in other reported cases, each cardiovascular disturbance corresponded with either direct or indirect dural manipulation. Given the limited number of lumbar spinal cases reported to have undergone hemodynamic perturbances via dural manipulation, this case report provides evidence for the likelihood of a spinal-cardiac reflex between the cardiovascular system and the spinal dura mater.

In toto resection of a rare intradural extramedullary cavernous malformation on the S1 nerve root: illustrative case
Authors: van de Goor Ank , Schuermans Valérie N. E , Postma Alida A , Boselie Toon F. M
Published: October 2024

BACKGROUND

Cavernous malformations (CMs) are vascular malformations that usually occur in the brain and occasionally in the spine. Most CMs are sporadic, but they can also be caused by heterozygous cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM) gene mutations. This case describes an intradural extramedullary CM in a unique location, within a fascicle of the S1 nerve root. This tumor was found to have a CCM2 mutation. An operative video demonstrates the surgical procedure used to remove this S1 intradural extramedullary CM.

OBSERVATIONS

A 61-year-old male with an intradural extramedullary CM, located within a fascicle of the S1 nerve root, presented with pain and neurological symptoms. Additional imaging revealed two CCMs. The S1 CM was removed in toto. Subsequently, genetic screening revealed a CCM2 mutation.

LESSONS

Given the rarity of a radicular CM, diagnosis can be challenging. CMs should be considered in patients with radicular pain and corresponding nerve root thickening. When a CM is suspected, imaging of the complete neuraxis should be performed. If multiple CMs are found, genetic screening is indicated. Complete resection of the CM yields good clinical results. The operative video in this case might help surgeons encountering this rare pathology to prepare for surgery.

Published: October 2024

BACKGROUND

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric condition characterized by recurrent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions) performed to relieve distress related to the obsessions. For patients with severe illness refractory to first-line pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy, neurosurgical treatments such as deep brain stimulation (DBS) and stereotactic lesioning are an option. The choice between DBS and lesioning is often driven by patient preference, but these options are not mutually exclusive. Here, the authors highlight the success of one surgical therapy (DBS) after the failure of another (lesioning).

OBSERVATIONS

Two patients with severe, treatment-refractory OCD underwent DBS lead implantation targeting the ventral capsule/ventral striatum after they did not attain any worthwhile benefit from a previous anterior capsulotomy. Both patients showed significant improvement (≥ 35% reduction in Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale [YBOCS] score) of their OCD symptoms at the long-term follow-up after DBS. One patient experienced a 37% reduction in symptom severity as measured by the YBOCS, and the other patient experienced a 47% reduction.

LESSONS

DBS and lesioning procedures are both effective surgical options for patients with intractable OCD. In these cases, the authors demonstrate that DBS can be utilized even after a lesioning procedure in nominally the same target (ventral portion of the anterior limb of the internal capsule).

High-grade astrocytoma with piloid features in the conus medullaris: a rare presentation of a new World Health Organization diagnosis. Illustrative case
Authors: Ndirangu Brandy , Neill Stewart , Cory Adamson David
Published: October 2024

BACKGROUND

Neuroepithelial tumors with histological features of pilocytic astrocytoma (PA), increased mitotic activity with high-grade features of microvascular proliferation, and palisading necrosis have often been designated as anaplastic PAs. High-grade astrocytoma with piloid features (HGAP) was recently classified as its own entity by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2021, after being grouped under anaplastic PA. This rare tumor typically arises in the cerebellum. The authors present the case of a patient with HGAP in the conus medullaris, a rare occurrence, with only 17 reported HGAP cases in other parts of the spinal cord.

OBSERVATIONS

An 83-year-old female patient presented with progressive lower-extremity weakness over 2 weeks. Subsequent imaging revealed an intramedullary spinal cord mass near the conus. Histopathological analysis confirmed a neuroepithelial tumor. Chromosomal microarray revealed the diagnosis of HGAP, an exceedingly unusual tumor to be found near the conus. The tumor characteristics showed uniformly low cellularity and low proliferation of medium-sized ovoid cells with elongated nuclei, embedded in a loose pilocytic matrix.

LESSONS

This report presents the case of a patient with HGAP in the conus medullaris, a new WHO diagnosis that needs to be included in the differential diagnosis for conus masses.

An unusual case of aggressive endometrial adenocarcinoma metastasis to the clivus: illustrative case
Authors: Sheldon Breanna L , Riordan Katherine , Fallahi Sara , Samargandy Shireen , Le Christopher H , Avery Michael B
Published: October 2024

BACKGROUND

Though endometrial carcinomas are a relatively common cancer of the female genitourinary tract, they rarely metastasize. Similarly, clival metastases make up a tiny fraction of all brain metastases. To the authors’ knowledge, an endometrial carcinoma clival metastasis has never been described in the literature; therefore, the authors present the following unusual case of a 69-year-old female with a history of an initially grade 2 endometrial adenocarcinoma that metastasized to her clivus.

OBSERVATIONS

Endometrial carcinoma has the potential to metastasize to the clivus.

LESSONS

Endometrial carcinoma, even when initially low grade, can metastasize intracranially. Prompt diagnosis with tissue biopsy and radiation is the mainstay of treatment, although the prognosis remains poor.

Spinal subarachnoid hematoma involving a thoracic ventral dural defect: illustrative case
Authors: Tanzawa Ayuka , Tateoka Toru , Yagi Takashi , Yoshioka Hideyuki , Ogiwara Masakazu , Kinouchi Hiroyuki
Published: October 2024

BACKGROUND

Spinal subarachnoid hematoma of unknown origin is rare. Superficial siderosis has been associated with chronic bleeding from spinal dural defects; however, the relationship between these defects and spinal subarachnoid hematoma remains unclear.

OBSERVATIONS

A 32-year-old woman presenting with severe back pain and leg weakness exhibited an extensive thoracic spinal hematoma with spinal cord compression on magnetic resonance imaging. Emergency surgery was performed, which revealed a ventral subarachnoid hematoma that was evacuated. A ventral dural defect at the hematoma site and venous bleeding from the surrounding area were observed. Hemostasis was achieved and the defect closed. After surgery, her neurological symptoms quickly resolved. Postoperative spinal angiography showed no vascular lesions.

LESSONS

Like superficial siderosis, ventral spinal subarachnoid hematoma can be caused by a spinal dural defect.

Racemose neurocysticercosis of the basal arachnoid cisterns: illustrative case
Authors: Thibault Drew , Ravina Kristine , Cuoco Joshua A , Adhikari Srijan , Stump Michael S , Rogers Cara M
Published: October 2024

BACKGROUND

Neurocysticercosis is a parasitic infection of the central nervous system caused by the helminth Taenia solium. Racemose neurocysticercosis is a rare form of the disease that specifically involves cerebrospinal fluid–filled spaces in the brain and carries a high rate of complications and mortality.

OBSERVATIONS

This report describes the case of a 37-year-old man who developed headaches and nausea, which were found to be secondary to racemose neurocysticercosis. He ultimately required an endoscopic third ventriculostomy, which provided transient symptom relief. In the weeks following the procedure, his symptoms returned, at which point a recommendation to proceed with a ventriculoperitoneal shunt was made.

LESSONS

The presentation of racemose neurocysticercosis is wide-ranging and often nonspecific. Patients who respond well to initial surgical management with endoscopic third ventriculostomy can still require more durable measures, such as a ventriculoperitoneal shunt, in the following months.

Lesion-like effect of gliosis secondary to deep brain stimulation electrode infection: illustrative case
Authors: Vilela-Filho Osvaldo , Oliveira-Alves Déborah , Alvim-Alves Déborah , Silva Délson J
Published: October 2024

BACKGROUND

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is commonly used to treat Parkinson's disease (PD) and other movement disorders when other treatments fail. Although DBS can significantly improve motor symptoms, it carries risks such as infections, which can require multiple surgeries and prolonged antibiotic therapy. Research on the long-term neurological effects of DBS-related infections is limited.

OBSERVATIONS

A 58-year-old man with a 13-year history of PD, refractory to optimized clinical management, underwent subthalamic nucleus (STN) DBS after previous contralateral lesioning of the posterior subthalamic area. Postoperatively, the DBS lead migrated upward and was repositioned, but he developed perielectrode cerebritis 5 days later. The DBS system was completely removed, and he underwent a 28-day course of intravenous antibiotics. Initially, his motor symptoms remained unchanged, but 4 months later, he experienced a significant and sustained motor symptom improvement that continued until the last follow-up assessment (40 months). Magnetic resonance imaging performed 2 years after the explantation showed gliosis and hemosiderin deposition in the STN, suggesting that the infection-induced gliosis had a lesion-like effect, leading to the observed clinical improvement.

LESSONS

This case suggests that infection-induced gliosis from DBS complications can unexpectedly result in long-term motor symptom improvements, potentially influencing future management strategies for similar cases.
