Context: Along with the rapid growth of the beauty product industry, the community highly favors the use of plants as beauty ingredients and facial treatments. Bakuchiol, a lipid-soluble compound derived from Psoralea corylifolia is a gentle alternative to retinol in anti-aging skincare. To enhance its penetration into the skin, bakuchiol is formulated in liposomes through encapsulation technology. Aims: To compare the efficacy of 0.5% bakuchiol oil and encapsulated 0.5% bakuchiol cream formula on facial skin quality. Methods: The subjects consisted of 17 respondents, aged 25-45 years, with various skin types. Two creams, 0.5% bakuchiol oil cream and encapsulated 0.5% bakuchiol cream, were applied twice daily in the split face for 28 days. The study utilized the A-One Tab Skin Analyzer device to measure facial skin quality by scanning facial moisture, pores, sebum, and wrinkles levels on days 0, 14, and 28. Data obtained in the form of numerical values were analyzed using a comparative method employing both parametric and non-parametric methods with the aid of the SPSS software. Results: The study results indicated that both creams enhanced skin moisture, reduced pore size, and improved wrinkle scores. However, the encapsulated bakuchiol cream performed better in minimizing pore size, sebum levels, and wrinkle scores. Conclusions: The study findings imply that the use of encapsulated 0.5% bakuchiol cream formulation had a more pronounced effect on improving facial skin quality compared to the 0.5% bakuchiol oil cream formulation, signifying the superior efficacy of the former.

Environmental and Social Impact Assessment in Malawi: A Review
Authors: Msiska Eatim Katundu
Published: January 2024

Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) is a technique that aims to acquire adequate and timely information on the anticipated environmental repercussions of development projects, as well as feasible alternatives and mitigation strategies. It is a very important tool for achieving sustainable development.  ESIA procedures require that a developer submit a written document to designated agency describing the probable or possible future environmental and social impacts of the intended action. In Malawi, even though the project developer may choose to submit an environmental impact assessment (EIA) to the Department of Environmental Affairs (DEA), it is still the director that decides which project requires an EIA.  This paper describes the current institutional framework for EIA in Malawi.
Exploring Neophytadiene from Ampelocissus araneosa: A Molecular Docking Approach to Inhibit Biofilm Formation in Staphylococcus aureus
Authors: Maheswari Balasubramanian Uma , Kalaiselvi Govindan
Published: January 2024

Background: The urgent need to combat antimicrobial resistance and biofilm production has prompted the exploration of alternative remedies, such as plant extracts, as viable substitutes for antibiotics.

Aim: This study aims to assess the phytocompound from A. araneosa and elucidate its inhibitory mechanisms against biofilm formation by S. aureus through molecular docking techniques.

Methodology: Plant material collection and extract preparation were conducted, followed by GCMS analysis of A. araneosa and protein modeling of Biofilm_IcaR from S. aureus. Drug 3D prediction and drug docking studies were performed using Neophytadiene and Metronidazole, with the Patch Dock server for the exploration of molecular interactions between the compounds and protein targets.

Results and Implications: The study identified bioactive compounds from A. araneosa, including neophytadiene, 3-eicosyne, phytol, and stigmasterol, known for their robust antimicrobial properties. Molecular docking studies demonstrated that neophytadiene exhibited a higher binding affinity to the Biofilm_IcaR protein compared to the control drug, Metronidazole, suggesting its efficacy as an inhibitor. These findings provide molecular insights into the potential of neophytadiene as a therapeutic agent against biofilm-producing S. aureus, with implications for the development of novel antimicrobial treatments.

Published: January 2024

Objective: This study aimed to identify the relationship between bovine brucellosis prevalence, farmers’ knowledge, attitude, practice (KAP), and social factors on migratory draft cattle and smallholder dairy farms in the central dry zone of Myanmar.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 54 migratory and 38 dairy cattle farms between August 2020 and February 2021. A structured questionnaire was used to identify farmers’ behaviors. Bulk milk was sampled and tested using indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (I-ELISA). STATA 17 was used for all the analyses.Results: Migratory cattle farms had a higher farm level brucellosis prevalence (14.8%) than dairy farms (2.6%; χ2 = 3.75; df = 1; p = 0.05). Only 2.8% of the farmers had knowledge about brucellosis, while 39.1% and 41.6% had attitudes and farm practices with respect to brucellosis, respectively in the study area. Socio-economic attribute of training in animal husbandry (p<0.01), raising system (p<0.01), practice of separating the aborted cow (p<0.01) were negatively associated to brucellosis. The overall farm level brucellosis prevalence was strongly associated with cattle herd size (p = 0.01), free movement grazing practices (p<0.01), practice of self-removal of placental debris without using personal protective equipment (p<0.01) and farmers' attitudes towards eating cow placenta debris (p<0.01).Conclusion: Farmers had little knowledge of brucellosis. Attitudes and practices differed significantly between migratory and dairy farmers. Training and extension programs are necessary to make farmers aware of their KAP situation since livestock migration and the custom of eating cow placental debris contribute to the spread of brucellosis. Persistent efforts are required to reduce the adverse effects of brucellosis. Therefore, the study suggests that a feasible control intervention and public awareness campaigns need to be conducted regarding methods of preventing human exposure to brucellosis.

Institutionen der politischen Differenz
Authors: Miram Malte
Published: January 2024

This study intervenes in the current debate on the ‘institutional deficit’ of theories of radical democracy. This family of democratic theories, which is sensitive to crisis diagnostics but rather weak in terms of institutional theory, is confronted with the diversity of understandings of institutions in social and political science. The heuristic developed for this purpose makes it clear, on the one hand, that different understandings of institutions are applied in the debate. On the other hand, the institutional considerations by key radical democratic authors themselves (Chantal Mouffe, Jacques Rancière) and in various further developments can thereby be identified and analysed in a nuanced manner. In particular, institutions of political difference can be discussed.

Rechtliche Chancen und Grenzen der automatisierten Entscheidungsunterstützung und Entscheidungsfindung in der Medizin
Authors: Casper Anna Felizitas
Published: January 2024

As early as the second half of the last century, the vision of systems that could support medical decisions or even replace them emerged. Today, enormous progress is visible in information technology, such evolution being discussed, in particular, using the buzzword "artificial intelligence". Nevertheless, there is little in-depth legal literature on the use of automated systems in medicine. This work therefore addresses the processing of data, information and knowledge to support or replace medical decisions. The focus of the analysis lies on the legal regulations related to the medical profession and treatment relationship and to data, information and confidentiality.
Out of Germany : the pilgrim badges as a tool of communication, using the example of the badges of Wilsnack
Authors: Ballová Alexandra
Published: January 2024

Imagery still plays a crucial role in a world of various languages and dialects. However, during the Middle Ages, when the masses were illiterate and the outside world often unknown and incomprehensible, images and visuality created a safe and coherent support for those who witnessed it. Iconography as a mode of non-verbal communication was often used by the Church, but people communicated among themselves through images, too. One of the popular modes of visual communication in the Middle Ages were badges – small objects, usually made to be worn pinned to the front of clothing or hats, or suspended. The badges existed in both the religious and secular spheres of human life and were meant to communicate an individual's personal or business affiliations, religious beliefs or even jokes. The following paper will focus on the religious badges using the example of the pilgrim badges of Wilsnack. It will analyse the levels on which these badges communicated not only visually, but also as indirect mediators of information, agents of private conversations with God and saints, and as tools of surprising unification of pilgrims during the times of Wilsnack controversy.

Published: January 2024

With the Edict of Milan and the full adoption of Christianity in Egypt, the city of Oxyrhynchus became a major religious center and was one of the most important cities during the Coptic period. From 2009 to 2021 excavations have been carried out in Sector 24 of the Upper Necropolis of Oxyrhynchus, where major finds from this Christian phase are coming to light and a basilica dedicated to St. Philoxenus has been documented. In the excavation of this building a series of crosses painted on the columns of the building have been found, from which we will analyze the iconography of this type of crosses in Egypt and how Christianity adopted them from the fourth century for their shape and symbolism. In addition, we will study the value and function of the letters alpha and omega that accompany in many cases not only the ansadas crosses, but also the staurograms, chrismons and christograms in general.

Authors: Kvapil Ondřej
Published: January 2024

This article aims to compare sacral and divine aspects of rulership in ancient China during Western Han dynasty and in the ancient Seleucid empire, with a focus on the divine origin of rulers, rulers as the chief priests, rulers as gods, and divine legitimacy. The cultural evolution involving ideas about the sacral role of rulers and their divinity will be presented, from ancient Macedonia to Seleucid empire and from Shang and Zhou dynasties through the Warring States period and Qin dynasty to the state of Western Han. The article aims to explore the above-mentioned aspects of sacral kingship to find out what forms these aspects took in both respective empires. The article aims particularly at the participation of rulers in local cults, the differences between ruler cults, celestial gods as the supreme authority, and gods connected with conquest and territory in order to contextualize our views of both Seleucid and Western Han empires, and by proxy the views on ancient China and ancient Hellenistic states.

Zwischen Himmel und Hölle : Kardinaltugenden und Todsünden in Wiener Oratorientexten des 18. Jahrhunderts
Authors: Hilscher Elisabeth Theresia
Published: January 2024

Bringing sinful people onto the path of virtue is a basic pastoral concern of Christianity. With the begin of the Catholic renewal this path of virtue was a crucial element of Pastoral care with the Virgin Mary was stylised as a role model for women of all classes, both in humility (humilitas) and strength (fortitudo). The focus of this contribution is on German-language oratorios in Vienna and their threefold "translation problem": on the one hand, in the realisation of theological content, on the other hand, in the confrontation with Italian (court) librettistics, which are indispensable as a model, and thirdly (as far as they have survived at all) in the musical realisation of the texts. Whether, in addition, changed theological-pastoral concepts, as they increasingly took hold in Vienna around the middle of the century (turning away from the Baroque "heaven of saints", strengthening Eucharist and Christology, discourse on indulgences), were able to find their way into the depiction of virtue, finding the right way in the area of tension between cardinal virtues and mortal sins.
When the music changes, so does the dance : do we still need copyright collectives?
Authors: Svoboda František
Published: January 2024

The tremendous growth of digitization in recent years has raised again the question of the functionality and necessity of the original structure of copyright protection, the copyright collectives. Especially music markets have transformed to such an extent that earlier arguments in favour of the existence of copyright collectives are questionable. The transition from monopolistic and oligopolistic structures to more individual and competitive market is accelerated by the digital economy forces. Even more, the new organisation of the music market has the potential to establish a new stability. The final product of the transformation will be a simpler and shorter creator-consumer chain that will render the market more flexible and competitive, with lower prices and a greater selection. Digital service providers can efficiently collect fees from various music uses.

Rozvíjení kontrapunktu v epoše po-kontrapunktické : příspěvek k polyfonnímu zobrazení světa v románech Milana Kundery
Authors: Sýkora Pavel
Published: January 2024

The study strives to analyse the polyphony of Milan Kundera's novels from musicological perspective. Different attributes of novel polyphony formulated by literary theories are added by the term stratified texture which refers to various simultaneous sound layers. Dissonances are the integral elements of Kundera's polyphony similar to Schoenberg's twelve-note counterpoint. This dissonant counterpoint can be seen as the depiction of the contemporary world. The study argues that Kundera's development of polyphony in novel is extremely important in contemporary epoch as counterpoint is disappering in musical compositions.

The production, use, and waste generation of plastic products is steadily increasing worldwide, and therefore it is necessary to minimize their impact on the environment, as they are a considerable source of pollution and have a substantial impact on climate change. Plastic waste prevention and control is a vital component of China’s national strategy. The purpose of this study is to analyse various scenarios for predicting the impact of plastic waste from industry and agriculture on the environment in the period from 2019 to 2030. Three scenarios have been developed (the scenario of following the national policy of plastic waste management – NP, the scenario of increasing the recycling rate by 20% – RR, and the scenario of banning the incineration of plastic waste suitable for secondary use – IB). The analysis was carried out using a plastic waste management flow model, which calculates environmental indicators for each scenario. The main indicator used in the model was greenhouse gas emissions. It is established that due to the implementation of existing and proposed targets, greenhouse gas emissions will be reduced compared to the BAU scenario by 6.274 Mt CO2e for NP, by 11.523 Mt CO2e for RR and by 12.498 Mt CO2e for IB. A comparative analysis of scenarios with a discussion of their strengths and weaknesses was conducted, existing problems were considered and recommendations for possible solutions were provided. The preference for the RR scenario was reasoned. The results obtained can not only serve as an information source for scientific research, but also help practitioners solve the problem of plastic waste management in an environmentally safe and economical way.

This research develops a monitoring system that improves the safety of people in the car. Continuous monitoring of in-cabin air quality is an important step in achieving a safer environment inside the cabin. Using oxygen, carbon dioxide, and temperature sensors to monitor those variables at all times, combining them with an Arduino to process those variables. In the event of approaching danger levels, a message is generated and sent to the owner of the car alerting them of the changes in the variables. This step allows the owner to resolve the situation without compromising the security of the vehicle. If the readings continue to depreciate, the Arduino will roll down the windows slightly allowing fresh air into the cabin, message the driver again to inform them of the action taken and alert the authorities to act immediately in case medical assistance is required. Cars have become the most common means of transportation in the world. While car crashes are looked at as the source of deaths related to vehicles, lack of oxygen and cabin overheating-related deaths have been rising. Many scenarios can lead to deaths in a stationary car such as children being left inside a car alone, parents unintentionally leaving their children in the back seats while rushing to work in the morning, and napping or sleeping in the car. Those scenarios are dangerous because of the effect of low oxygen, high carbon dioxide, and high temperature on humans. Oxygen deprivation and high carbon dioxide intake negatively affect the human brain.

Social media has become an integral part of everyday life, influencing various aspects including religion. Tanjung Medan Village was chosen as the research location because it has characteristics of a community that is still strong in traditional religious values. The research method used is field research with a qualitative approach. Data was collected through in-depth interviews, observation and analysis of social media content. Respondents consisted of various age groups and religious backgrounds to gain a comprehensive understanding. The research results show that social media has a significant impact on religious behavior in Tanjung Medan Village. Openness of information through social media accelerates the spread of religious values, but can also trigger changes in attitudes and interpretations of religion. Social media also facilitates interaction between individuals with diverse religious understandings, producing new dynamics in society's religious practices. Although social media provides widespread access to religious information, this research also identifies challenges, such as the spread of false information or religious radicalism. Therefore, efforts are needed to increase media literacy and people's religious understanding in dealing with the impact of social media.
