Эффективное использование государственным аппаратом современных политико-управленческих технологий политического управления является условием и механизмом устойчивого развития социальной и культурно-духовной сферы жизни общества, экономики и политико-идеологической системы, структуры ценностных ориентаций и политических предпочтений граждан. Целью применения этих технологий должно быть формирование органов государственной власти и местного самоуправления в соответствии со свободным волеизъявлением граждан (электората).
В то же время мировой опыт свидетельствует о росте влияния на электоральное поведение различных информационно-коммуникативных технологий манипуляции массовым сознанием и поведением, в первую очередь реализуемых посредством интернета. Применение этих технологий инициируется (в том числе извне страны) с целью обострения политической ситуации, дестабилизации властных институтов и делегитимации политических режимов. Воздействие манипулятивных технологий на избирательный процесс влечёт за собой крайне негативные последствия как для государства, так и для общества, в том числе в форме различного рода «цветных революций».
В статье рассматривается комплекс проблем стратегического управления электоральными процессами; проводится анализ электорального процесса как механизма взаимодействия государства и гражданского общества; раскрываются особенности политического менеджмента электоральным процессом, определяемые президентской формой правления в современном Казахстане.

This article is about human rights in the Islamic world. This study confirms that human rights are an important part of Islamic teachings. Since the beginning of its arrival Islam has greatly accommodated the concept of human rights. Nevertheless, the concept of human rights at the beginning of its emergence, precisely in the Declaration of Human Rights of December 10, 1948 was not approved by some Islamic countries, considered a product of the West and not part of Islam. On the other hand, in the practice of its application, Muslim countries in Southeast Asia, such as Indonesia, Malaysia and Brunei Darussalam are very different, but these countries at least agree on one word, that the concept of human rights should be upheld and actualized in the life of the nation and state.

Abstract. A growing number of general circulation models are adapting interactive sulfur and aerosol schemes to improve the representation of relevant physical and chemical processes and associated feedbacks. They are motivated by investigations of climate response to major volcanic eruptions and potential solar geoengineering scenarios. However, uncertainties in these schemes are not well constrained. Stratospheric sulfate is modulated by emissions of sulfur-containing species of anthropogenic and natural origin, including volcanic activity. While the effects of volcanic eruptions have been studied in the framework of global model intercomparisons, the background conditions of the sulfur cycle have not been addressed in such a way. Here, we fill this gap by analyzing the distribution of the main sulfur species in nine global atmospheric aerosol models for a volcanically quiescent period. We use observational data to evaluate model results. Overall, models agree that the three dominant sulfur species in terms of burdens (sulfate aerosol, OCS, and SO2) make up about 98 % stratospheric sulfur and 95 % tropospheric sulfur. However, models vary considerably in the partitioning between these species. Models agree that anthropogenic emission of SO2 strongly affects the sulfate aerosol burden in the northern hemispheric troposphere, while its importance is very uncertain in other regions, where emissions are much lower. Sulfate aerosol is the main deposited species in all models, but the values deviate by a factor of 2. Additionally, the partitioning between wet and dry deposition fluxes is highly model dependent. Inter-model variability in the sulfur species is low in the tropics and increases towards the poles. Differences are largest in the dynamically active northern hemispheric extratropical region and could be attributed to the representation of the stratospheric circulation. The differences in the atmospheric sulfur budget among the models arise from the representation of both chemical and dynamical processes, whose interplay complicates the bias attribution. Several problematic points identified for individual models are related to the specifics of the chemistry schemes, model resolution, and representation of cross-tropopause transport in the extratropics. Further model intercomparison research is needed with a focus on the clarification of the reasons for biases, given the importance of this topic for the stratospheric aerosol injection studies.
Secondary organic aerosols derived from intermediate-volatility n-alkanes adopt low-viscous phase state

Published: May 2024

Abstract. Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) derived from n-alkanes, as emitted from vehicles and volatile chemical products, is a major component of anthropogenic particulate matter, yet the chemical composition and phase state are poorly understood and thus poorly constrained in aerosol models. Here we provide a comprehensive analysis of n-alkane SOA by explicit gas-phase chemistry modeling, machine learning, and laboratory experiments to show that n-alkane SOA adopts low-viscous semi-solid or liquid states. Our study underlines the complex interplay of molecular composition and SOA viscosity: n-alkane SOA with a higher carbon number mostly consists of less functionalized first-generation products with lower viscosity, while the SOA with a lower carbon number contains more functionalized multigenerational products with higher viscosity. This study opens up a new avenue for analysis of SOA processes, and the results indicate few kinetic limitations of mass accommodation in SOA formation, supporting the application of equilibrium partitioning for simulating n-alkane SOA formation in large-scale atmospheric models.
Glacier geometry limits the propagation of thinning in Patagonian Icefields

Published: May 2024

Abstract. Climate change is causing a decline in glaciers globally, with the possibility that some may disappear during this century. Recent findings postulate that the geometric glacier-topography configuration has the capacity to limit glacier thinning upstream. The Patagonian Icefields (PI), with 15,900 km² of glaciers, are the world's largest glacial freshwater reservoir after Antarctica and Greenland. In recent decades, it has been one of the areas with the greatest mass loss worldwide due to climate change. Our research explores the relationship between glacier geometry and changes in PI glaciers to determine regions vulnerable to thinning. We studied 45 major marine- and lake-terminating glaciers in PI using the Péclet number (Pe) based on the diffusive kinematic wave model to determine the geometric state of glaciers and as a metric of vulnerability to diffusive thinning. Locations with Pe ≤ 8 experienced greater thinning and retreat, suggesting an empirical limit that encompasses more than 90 % of ice thinning. The empirical limit is related to a significant change in the slope gradient and roughness of the subglacial topography at PI due to a knickpoint in the subglacial bed. On average, ~53 % of the total ice flow of PI glaciers is below the thinning limit. Therefore, due to the current geometric state and evolution, lake-terminating glaciers may propagate frontal thinning deep inland. The empirical thinning limit provides signals of priority glaciers to investigate considering current climate change projections.

Abstract. A dual chamber system was deployed in two different environments to study the potential of ambient air, that was directly injected into the chambers, to form secondary organic and inorganic aerosol. A total of 16 experiments took place during March 2022 in a polluted environment in the Po Valley, Italy which is dominated by anthropogenic emissions. Another 15 experiments were conducted in the Pertouli forest, Greece which is dominated by biogenic emissions. In both campaigns, ambient air containing highly oxidized (average O:C 0.7–0.8) aerosol was the starting point of the experiments and its chemical evolution under the presence of OH radicals was followed. In the Po Valley SOA formation was observed in all experiments but one and the formed SOA ranged from 0.1 to 10 μg m-3. Experiments conducted under more polluted conditions (usually at night and early morning) had significantly higher SOA formation, with the concentration of the organic aerosol at the end being about four times higher than the initial. Also, production of 4–230 μg m-3 of ammonium nitrate was observed in all experiments due to the high levels of ammonia in this area. The produced SOA increased as the ambient relative humidity increased, but there was not a clear relationship between the SOA and temperature. Higher SOA production was observed when the PM1 levels in Po Valley were high. Contrary to the Po Valley, only one experiment in the Pertouli forest resulted in the formation of detectable SOA (about 1 μg m-3). This experiment was characterized by higher ambient concentrations of both monoterpenes and isoprene. In two experiments, some SOA was formed, but its concentration dropped below detection levels after 30 min. This behavior is consistent with local formation in a chamber that was not well mixed. Although both environments have OA with O:C in the range of 0.7–0.8, the atmosphere of the two sites had very different potentials of forming SOA. In the Po Valley, the system reacts rapidly forming large amounts of SOA, while in Pertouli the corresponding SOA formation chemistry appears to have been practically terminated before the beginning of most experiments, so there is little additional SOA formation potential left.
Using seasonal forecasts to enhance our understanding of extreme European windstorm impacts

Published: May 2024

Abstract. Considerable effort is spent at insurance and reinsurance companies to estimate the risk posed by windstorms. Among these risks, strong near surface wind speeds can be particularly damaging, threatening infrastructure, human life, and billions of pounds in insured losses. Here, we use nearly 700 years worth of extended wintertime seasonal forecast output to estimate the impact of extreme European windstorms, with insured losses estimated using a storm severity index (SSI). Using the full integration period of the seasonal forecast model, we follow the UNprecedented Simulated Extreme ENsemble (UNSEEN) method, here applied to windstorms for the first time. After demonstrating that the seasonal forecast model of the UK Met Office represents windstorms with good accuracy, and developing a new method to convert from wind speed to wind gust derived SSIs, the likelihood of occurrence of unprecedented windstorms is quantified for several countries within Europe. The probability that a windstorm that impacts a country will be more extreme than any observed (i.e. an unprecedented or unseen windstorm) is generally between 0.5 % and 1.6 %. The North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is shown to influence European windstorms: strongly positive and negative NAO values strongly increase and decrease the likelihood of an unprecedented storm, respectively.. Serial clustering of windstorms within an extended winter is also found to increase the aggregated seasonal impact of windstorms for the countries analysed herein. These results may aid in the prediction of seasonal loss totals, as the NAO, for example, is predictable several months in advance. The analyses presented could be extended to other datasets, thus increasing the sample size of windstorms and allowing for the estimation of very high return period storms and the potential losses insurance companies will be liable to cover.
The Struggle for Justice for Battered Women: Still a Colossal Work in Progress, as Exemplified by Helen Naslund’s Case
Authors: Sheehy Elizabeth , Pate Kim , Naslund Helen , Behrens Matthew , Duckett Mona , Pruden Jana G.
Published: May 2024

This article recounts the campaign for justice for Helen Naslund, a Canadian woman who lived in rural Alberta when she killed her abusive husband Miles in 2011 as he slept. Rather than go to trial on self-defence, on the advice of counsel Helen pled guilty to manslaughter and then, consequent to a joint submission on sentencing made with the Crown, she was sentenced to 18 years in prison in 2020, the longest sentence on record for such a woman in Canada. The contributors to Helen’s journey, including Helen herself, a Senator, an academic, an activist, a lawyer and a journalist, all describe the roles they played in supporting Helen’s successful appeal against sentence in 2022 and her release from prison in 2023.

The draftability study was conducted on a pair of medium size bullocks with CIAE Animal Loading Car at draft load of 10, 12 and 14 % of body weight in summer and rainy season and at draft load of 12, 14 and 16 % of bodyweight in winter. Pulse rate (PR), respiration rate (RR) and the body temperature (BT) were recorded and power output was determined at hourly interval. It was observed that the physiological responses were predominantly affected by the ambient conditions at a particular load. In summer, the total power output per day of 6 hours work at 10 % load was 2.27 kW (Avg. 0.38 kW), whereas at 12 and 14 % load the same were 2.13 and 2.47 kW, respectively. The bullocks could work only for five hours as work had to be stopped after 3rd hour, due to fatigue. Although, the total power output at 14 % was higher than that of 10 and 12 % load, it could not be taken as a sustainable load in summer as the bullocks got fatigue after 3rd hour of work. The power out put per day was maximum (2.89 kW) at 12 % load followed by 2.63 kWat 14 % load and 2.47 kW at 10 % load in the rainy season. At 14 % load, the bullock got fatigue after 3rd hour of work. Maximum power output of 3.29 kW was found at 16 % load in the winter. The sustainable load was found to be 14 % with a power output of 3.19 kW/day. Considering the fatigue score and power output, it was observed that the bullocks could sustain draft load of 10 % in summer, 12 % in rainy season and 14 % in winter.
"Diagnosed with New Health": Social Security Policy Recommendations for People with Cycstic Fibrosis in Ohio Transitioning to a Longer Lifespan
Authors: Nikiforovs Abigail
Published: May 2024

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a chronic, progressive, genetic, and life-limiting lung disease that impacts approximately 105,000 individuals globally, including 40,000 individuals in the United States. In 2019, a revolutionary new drug, elexacaftor/ivacaftor/tezacaftor (ETI), was approved to manage some of the major symptoms of CF and dramatically increase the lifespan of people with cystic fibrosis (pwCF). Many individuals with CF cannot work full time and require Medicaid, Supplemental Security Income (SSI), Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI), and other financial assistance programs to pay for treatments and medical expenses. Yet in recent years, pwCF who are on ETI have been increasingly losing benefits. A possible explanation for this is the effectiveness of ETI in improving lung function, creating the perception that pwCF are no longer disabled by their condition. Even with this “miracle" drug, pwCF continue to experience significant complications and vulnerabilities to their physical and mental health as well as limitations on daily living and employment. The compounded vulnerabilities these individuals experience leave them without a safety net. Social Security policies for pwCF require revisions to prevent further biopsychosocial damage to this population. Two policies will be recommended: leniency in redetermination, and CF education for those who make determination decisions.

Demographic variables and aggressive driving
Authors: HAIDU Felicia Aurica
Published: May 2024

Drivers in traffic have been showing an increase in aggressive behavior in recent years. The need to study the causes of road accidents and develop measures to mitigate them is confirmed by the worrying statistical data at international and national level on the rate of road accidents. This article reflects the results of an experimental study on the relationship between demographic factors and their influence on aggressive driving undertaken on 204 drivers. The experimentally verified hypothesis was that there are statistically significant differences in aggressive behavior manifested in traffic (aggressive driving, dangerous driving, risky driving) depending on gender, age, background, and socioeconomic status.

Published: May 2024

This study aims to analyze students' thinking processes in solving mathematics problems in terms of visual, auditory and kinesthetic learning styles. The research method used is a descriptive qualitative approach using various data collection techniques, such as observation, learning style questionnaires, mathematics tests, interviews, and documentation in the school environment. Therefore, triangulation techniques were used in data analysis. The results showed that each learning style has different stages of the thinking process. Subjects with visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles have a similar flow of thought process, starting from understanding the problem, planning, and executing the plan. The difference lies in the checking back stage, visual learning style subjects check back starting from understanding, making a plan, to implementing the plan, then just draw conclusions. For auditory learning style subjects, checking back is only at the stage of implementing the plan, then drawing conclusions. For kinesthetic learning style subjects do not check back and immediately draw conclusions.

En principe, le «droit à l’oubli» comprend le droit d’un individu, fondé sur le droit de la personnalité, à ce que certaines informations rendues accessibles au public soient – sous certaines conditions – effacées, rectifiées ou anonymisées. La notion de «droit à l’oubli», basé sur l’art. 8 CEDH, et ses conditions d’application ont fait l’objet de nombreuses concrétisations jurisprudentielles ces dernières années. La présente contribution retrace l’histoire du «droit à l’oubli» et, à l’occasion de l’arrêt de la Grande Chambre de la CEDH (57292/16, Hurbain c. Belgique) du 4 juillet 2023 – dans lequel la Cour renforce et élargit les conditions d’exercice de ce droit-, examine, entre autres, les potentielles répercussions sur la liberté de la presse. L’auteur conclut en esquissant de nouvelles pistes de réflexion.
Capítulo 5. Las cifras de la cibercampaña de las Elecciones Generales de abril de 2019

Las estrategias de comunicación política durante las campañas electorales se desenvuelven en el contexto de un sistema mediático híbrido caracterizado por la consolidación de los medios digitales y las redes sociales. En la última década, los partidos políticos han adaptado sus enfoques a las particularidades y demandas de este nuevo entorno, en el que las redes sociales se han consolidado como el epicentro de la comunicación política.El objetivo principal de esta investigación es describir la presencia y la actividad en Internet de la clase política española durante la campaña previa a las Elecciones Generales de abril de 2019, así como la evolución de sus comunidades de seguidores. La metodología ha consistido en la aplicación de un análisis cuantitativo comparado de la presencia en la blogosfera, Facebook, Twitter e Instagram de los cabezas de lista de PSOE, PP, Vox, Unidas Podemos y Ciudadanos al Congreso de los Diputados en las 52 circunscripciones electorales españolas —las 50 provincias y las ciudades autónomas de Ceuta y Melilla—.El análisis evidencia la práctica desaparición de los blogs y de las páginas webs personales como canales de la comunicación política online, así como la absoluta preponderancia de Twitter como el canal por excelencia de la cibercampaña española, siendo especialmente relevante en los casos de los cabezas de lista provinciales de PSOE y PP, las dos formaciones con más trayectoria. Se generalizó, asimismo, el carácter minoritario del uso de Facebook mediante páginas públicas por parte de los candidatos.Las principales novedades detectadas fueron la irrupción de Instagram como el segundo canal online por el que más optaron los candidatos y el absoluto liderazgo en el crecimiento de las comunidades por parte de Vox y UP, que registraron los mayores incrementos en Facebook, Twitter e Instagram pese a no ser las formaciones con mayor presencia en ninguno de dichos medios ni, tampoco, las que más publicaron en los dos últimos. Estos resultados están en consonancia con estudios en medios sociales donde se confirma que los partidos populistas tienen un mayor número de seguidores y un nivel de participación superior que el resto de partidos.

Background: Hypertension is a common condition that affects many people all over the world. It could be associated with several complications especially in cases of resistant hypertension. Many clinical practice guidelines recommend screening for primary aldosteronism especially in persons with resistant hypertension owing to the worse prognosis when compared with blood pressure-matched essential hypertension. Objective: The study aimed to screen for primary aldosteronism in high-risk hypertensive Egyptian patients, and to determine the challenges faced in the diagnosis. Material and methods: 50 high-risk hypertensive patients were recruited from the Outpatient Endocrinology Clinic out of 200 hypertensive patients in the period from February 2019 and April 2021. Creatinine, Glycosylated hemoglobin (HBA1c), lipid profile, potassium level, sodium level, Plasma Aldosterone Concentration (PAC), Active Renin Concentration (ARC), and aldosterone/ Renin Ratio (ARR) were assessed in all patients. Results: A series of 50 hypertensive patients screened for PA (26 females and 24 males) with a mean age of 41.88±11.91 SD. We found that 41(82%) patients were receiving antihypertensive medications and 9(18%) patients didn’t receive treatment for hypertension previously. 9(18%) patients kept on no treatment, 6(12%) patients were kept on the same anti-hypertensive medications, and 35(70%) of them were shifted to other anti-hypertensive drugs. 4 patients out of total 50 patients had a positive ARR (>46), while 13(26%) patients out of total 50 hypertensive patients had low renin levels. There was a statistically significant relation between serum Aldosterone/ Renin Ratio (ARR) and serum Potassium (K) with P-value=0.001 (Figure 4), also a statistically significant relation between serum aldosterone/ renin ratio (ARR) and (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure) with P-value=0.001 was found. Conclusion: We recommend routine screening for PA in high-risk hypertensive patients that could offer targeted treatment before adverse cardiovascular consequences develop.

Ataxia telangiectasia is a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder. A minority of patients can present with lateonset atypical manifestations due to unknown mechanisms. This can lead to uncommon signs and symptoms, such as dystonic head movements. We report a 26-year-old woman with atypical ataxia telangiectasia who presented with cervical dystonia. Alpha-fetoprotein levels in the serum were found to be elevated in laboratory tests, and genetic testing for the ATM gene provided the definitive diagnosis.
