The article presents the results of mineralogical, geochemical, isotopic, and geochemical (Sm-Nd) studies on siltstones from the upper Bystraya subformation of the Argun continental massif, as well as U-Pb dating of detrital zircon grains from them. The main goal of the research was to identify the main sources of clastic material, reconstruct the paleogeodynamic environment of accumulation, and constrain the lower age limit for the formation of terrigenous rocks of the upper Bystraya subformation. The mineralogical composition of the studied rocks indicates their accumulation in an environment associated with subduction processes. The trace element composition of siltstones from the subformation suggests the presence of rocks of mixed composition in the source area in terms of their silica content. Based on Sm-Nd isotopic and geochemical data, it was established that the main sources of clastic material for siltstones of the stratigraphic unit were Paleoproterozoic rocks and (or) younger rocks whose formation is associated with the reworking of the Paleoproterozoic continental crust. Most of the zircons from the studied sample of siltstones of the upper Bystraya subformation are Neo- and Paleoproterozoic in age. Their sources are probably Neo- and Paleoproterozoic igneous rocks widespread within the Argun massif in China. The age of the youngest zircons (556 ± 9 and 566 ± 10 Ma) isolated from siltstones of the upper Bystraya subformation was used to constrain the lower limit of their accumulation in the middle of the Ediacaran.
Jewish Environmentalism in the United States: Achievements, Characteristics, and Challenges
Authors: Tirosh-Samuelson Hava
Published: March 2024

Concern for the environment is recognizably present in contemporary Judaism, especially in the United States. Along with practitioners of other world religions, Jews have responded to the eco-crisis by reinterpreting canonic texts, articulating eco-theologies, and reenvisioning traditional Jewish rituals. Today there are Jewish environmental organizations and Jewish thinkers who inspire Jews to appreciate the agricultural roots of Judaism, cultivate an environmentally concerned lifestyle, green the practices of Jewish institutions, and advocate the ethics of creation care. Together these activities constitute a Jewish environmental sensibility that allows us to generalize about “Jewish environmentalism,” although it falls short of constituting a cohesive “environmental movement.” Focusing exclusively on Jewish environmentalism in the U.S., this essay features the academic discourse on Judaism and ecology, the official resolutions of Jewish denominations about environmental matters, and the main activities of Jewish environmental organizations. Judaism is a highly variegated religious tradition that speaks in many voices. Nonetheless, there are shared canonic texts, foundational beliefs, ethical values, and literary tropes that characterize a distinctive Judaic perspective. From that vantage point, development of the physical world is religiously permissible, but it must cohere with the ethical values and legal principles of Judaism. It is not surprising, therefore, that socially progressive Jewish environmentalists have been vocal critics of the extraction industries, transnational capitalism, and wasteful consumerism that have greatly contributed to the eco-crisis. Highlighting the biblical commandment to pursue justice (tzedek), some Jewish environmentalists have applied social justice to ecological matters and promoted the ideal of tikkun olam (“repair of the world”). The essay surveys the achievements of Jewish environmentalism and notes persistent challenges.
Religion and Ecology: Perspectives on Environment and Sustainability across Religious Traditions
Authors: Renger Almut-Barbara , Stork Juliane , Öhlmann Philipp
Published: March 2024

This editorial introduces Religion & Development Vol. 2, Issue 3 – Special Issue on “Religion and Ecology: Perspectives on Environment and Sustainability across Religious Traditions.” The articles delve into the intricate relationship between religion and ecology from diverse perspectives. The prevailing academic discourse on religion and ecology is centered on three fundamental aspects. Firstly, it underscores the potential of religious communities to actively combat climate change by shaping worldviews and guiding community and personal activities. Secondly, it scrutinizes the practical implementation of these contributions by religious communities, exploring both obstacles and facilitators for their environmental engagement. Lastly, it emphasizes how religious communities furnish theological and spiritual arguments in support of environmental protection, thereby motivating believers to take proactive measures. This special issue contributes to these ongoing discussions by presenting insights from all three perspectives, enhancing the discourse with distinctive viewpoints from Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism, African Traditional Religions, Indigenous Religious Traditions, and interfaith perspectives. The incorporation of diverse religious traditions complements recent dialogues on development and sustainability, thereby providing a more comprehensive understanding of the intersection between religion and ecology.
African Approaches to the Protection and Conservation of the Environment: The Role of African Traditional Religions
Authors: Amanze James N.
Published: March 2024

In Africa the environment is sacrosanct and treated with great respect, particularly in communities where traditional beliefs and practices prevail. The sacredness of the environment is based on the African people’s fundamental belief that the spiritual and the secular worlds are two sides of the same coin endowed with divine power and presence. As a result, the line of demarcation between the two worlds is blurred. They complement each other in the sense that each derives its meaning, significance and importance from the other. Since the natural world is imbued with the divine, it is considered an extension of the supernatural world. In the absence of written legal frameworks, the environment, in indigenous communities, is protected through religious beliefs and practices. This article analyses the basic approaches of the African people towards nature and their fundamental belief that the environment is an integral part of God’s creation and must therefore be preserved and conserved for future generations. The article notes that in contemporary Africa the emphasis on material values is leading towards the total destruction of the environment, thus putting humanity at the intersection of self-destruction – something that needs to be avoided at all costs.

ScholarOne - Immigration without mediation: The reaction of Brazilians to an influx of Venezuelans
Authors: Meira Raduan Eugenio Hussak van Velthem
Published: March 2024

How does an immigration shock affect natives’ voting behavior? While
many studies explore (a) natives’ attitudes toward immigrants and (b)
the electoral appeals of anti-immigrant parties, much less is known
about how immigration directly affects the electoral performance of
incumbents. I argue that immigration will harm the incumbent. Natives in
the regions exposed to immigration will feel anxious about the influx
and, consequently, will change their voting behavior, leading them to
punish the incumbent. This study examines the impact of immigration from
Venezuela in 2018 on Brazil’s Workers’ Party (PT) electoral outcomes. I
rely on an instrumental variable regression to causally identify the
effect of the immigration shock and to show that it damaged the
electoral performance of PT in most elections that were held just after
the shock occurred. My results suggest that akin to other globalization
shocks, heightened levels of immigration can elicit a political backlash

Published: March 2024

The purpose of this study was to study the phenotypes of eating behavior in patients with NAFLD and their determining factors. Discussion: fatty liver disease has a high prevalence (24-26%) with an upward trend in both developed and developing countries, and in the coming years may become one of the main causes of liver transplantation. The clinical features of the disease are in most cases its asymptomatic course, which can progress to fibrosis/cirrhosis and is associated with the risk of a number of serious extrahepatic diseases (cardiovascular, oncological and others). The mechanisms underlying the formation of increased health risks and disease prognosis are multifactorial. Metabolic disorders, orthorexia nervosa, eating disorders and vegetative effects are considered as possible pathogenetic mechanisms for increasing the risk of NAFLD incidence. Conclusion: the study showed that complex behavioral psycho-social factors are involved in the pathogenesis of NAFLD, and changing eating behavior is an important component of therapy. Dysfunctional eating behavior can be a barrier to long-term success from therapy.

Iron overload in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a fairly common phenomenon that receives very little attention in clinical practice. However, iron overload, leading to hemosiderosis (deposition of “indigestible” nanodispersed iron oxides in various tissues) significantly aggravates NAFLD, stimulating increased chronic inflammation, insulin resistance and hemosiderosis of other organs. As a result, ferroptosis of hepatocytes occurs (apoptosis caused by iron overload and hemosiderosis), which accelerates the transformation of non-alcoholic steatosis into non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and, subsequently, into liver cirrhosis. Iron overload is aggravated by micronutrient deficiencies and pathogenic intestinal microbiota. The paper presents the results of a systematic analysis of this issue, describes the prospects for therapy using micronutrients and human placenta hydrolysates (HPP), which contribute not only to the regeneration of liver tissue, but also to the normalization of iron homeostasis.

Published: March 2024

Chronic pancreatitis in children is a continuous or recurrent disease characterized by irreversible inflammatory and destructive changes in the pancreas (PG), progressive fibrosis, accompanied by a gradual decrease in its exocrine and endocrine functions. In recent decades, there has been a significant increase in patients with CP; the incidence in children is estimated at 2 cases per 100,000 people. According to the literature, pancreatic cancer in the outcome of chronic pancreatitis in childhood is 6.2%. Mortality rates for CP vary in different studies: 15-20% of children with CP die from complications and secondary disorders. The purpose of the study is to study current problems and determine the prospects for the treatment of chronic pancreatitis in children based on a review of modern literature. Materials and methods. As part of the preparation, a systematic review of the world and domestic literature on the surgical treatment of chronic pancreatitis in children was carried out. Results. A literature search confirmed the lack of consensus regarding the surgical treatment of CP in children. The small number of observations does not allow us to analyze the long-term results of surgical treatment of children with CP. Patients with hereditary pancreatitis pose a particular challenge; treatment algorithms for this group of patients are not described in the literature. Also in the literature there are isolated descriptions of complications with CP in children; there are no reliable results of the effectiveness of surgical intervention for endocrine and exocrine insufficiency in children. It is necessary to conduct scientific and practical research to develop indications for surgical treatment of children with CP and to verify specific complications.

Ageing is the global issue that affects almost all countries of the globe but its pace and level varies largely. The activities of daily living of elderly people are affected by various factors which reduce the activeness of elderly for their fullest contribution for development of society and nation. The activities of daily living are decreases with increasing the age and requires due medical care, support and treatment. The objective of this paper is to examine the contributing factors for activity of daily living in rural setting of Nepal. The cross-sectional study was carried out in Sunkoshi Rural Municipality, Sindhuli district in 2022 in which 413 elderly people aged 60+years were interviewed applying structured questionnaire. Chi-square test was employed to assess the association between dependent and independent variables whereas logistic regression was used to examine the contributing independent variables to activity of daily living. Of the total respondents, the significant proportion of respondents needed help for urination (50.12%) followed by carrying things (38.74%), walking (26.63%) and standing up (18.16%) whereas the least expressed that they need help for feeding (5.81%). Elderly having higher age have significantly higher likelihood of need of help for activity of daily living [70-79 years of age (OR=4.40, CI: 2.77-6.98) and 80+ years of age (OR=15.02, CI: 6.18-36.50)] than elderly aged 60-69 years of age. The likelihood of need of help for supporting daily activity is observed higher in joint family (OR=2.79, CI: 1.75-4.42) Janajati (OR=2.48, CI: 0.79-3.64) and having no provision of insurance (OR=2.88, CI: 0.97-8.55). The likelihood of need of help for daily activities is found higher among elderly who stopped working completely (OR=4.38, CI:1.46-3.34). The likelihood of seeking help for daily activity is significantly higher among elderly who do not involve in vigorous and moderate intensity activity and need of such help is observed highest among elderly who does not have capacity of grazing animals, putting grass and collecting dung. Daily activity of elderly people is the major symbol of active and successful ageing so it is most essential to promote the activity of daily living by ensuring and enhancing the aforementioned aspects.

Nepal is federal country with three levels of governments, viz. federal, province and local. Among these, province government is new structure and its performance is important for the stability of province and the federal system. The performance of province is mainly determined by the frequency of transfer of top level bureaucrats and the availability of the staffs in province ministry. This study establishes the relation between frequent transfer of top level bureaucrats, availability of staffs and the performance of province government further digging out other factors affecting the performance of province government. The purpose of the study is to examine data from secondary sources, focus groups, field observations, interviews with key informants, and other sources that includes both quantitative and qualitative data. The study established the relation between performances of province government with frequent transfer of top level bureaucrats of province ministries of Lumbini Province. There has been effect of such frequent transfer of the top level bureaucrats in the performance of Lumbini Province government to the large extent in planning, implementation, resource management, risk management, liability management, accountable management, effectiveness of office, coordination among other staffs and offices, and policy making. But the impact on daily office operation has been found very low. Federal and province governments are suggested to reduce the frequent transfer of top level bureaucrats and manage the full staffing condition of province ministries.

Володимир Теодорович Полєк (27 вересня 1924-19 липня 1999) – один із останніх класичних бібліографів, який народився, жив і помер в Станіславові (Івано-Франківську). Біобібліографія Володимира Полєка надзвичайно широка і досі ще не осмислена. Його велика праця, над якою він працював до останніх днів життя, – «Біобібліографічний словник Прикарпаття» – залишилася незавершеною й існує лише у газетному варіянті.
Епістолярій Володимира Полєка є теж обширним і майже недослідженим. Розпочав публікацію свого листування сам дослідник у 1991 році, опублікувавши декілька листів Ольги Дучимінської. У 2004 і 2013 роках вибране листування Володимира Полєка видрукував автор цих рядків. 2008 року частину листування із Станіславом Вінцензом опублікувала Ольга Цівкач.

ОЗНАЧЕНИЙ СЛОВОМ ШЛЯХ (Літературна діяльність Леся Курбаса)
Authors: Хороб Степан
Published: March 2024

Метою статті є те, щоб крізь призму реформаторських ідей режисера українського сценічного мистецтва Леся Курбаса (1887–1937) дослідити йо­го літературну діяльність як сукупну и цілісну систему його поглядів на драму як рід літератури і вид мистецтва, на специфіку її стильових домінант у перших десятиліттях XX століття. Об’єктом дослідження є прозові спроби діяча українського театру, його перекладні твори та наукові праці, його інсценізації за творами українських і зарубіжних авторів і його театрознавча публіцистика – режисерський щоденник, лекції з режису­ри та лекції з практики сцени. Методологічною базою дослідження є біографічний метод, принципи культурно-історичного та герменевтичного ме­тодів, а також засади порівняльно-типологічного підходу в аналізі об’єкту та предмету вивчення. Наукова новизна статті полягає у комплексному і системному з’ясуванні проблеми «Лесь Курбас і література», в результаті чого доведено, що геніальний український режисер починав свою творчість зі словесного мистецтва (дебютував як прозаїк), впродовж режисерської діяльності як художній керівник «Молодого театру», «Кийдрамте» і «Березолю» здійснював неодноразово інсценізації ліричних та епічних творів українських і зарубіжних письменників (виступав як драматург), перекладав п’єси західноєвропейських авторів, наукові дослідження мистецтвознавців з Європи (поставав як перекладач), часто вивчав як режисер появу тих чи тих модерністських течій крізь призму літератури і те­атру (позиціонував себе як літературознавець і дослідник драматургії). Такий поліаспектний зв’язок Леся Курбаса з літературно-художньою творчістю, з науково-дослідницькою діяльністю дає підстави зробити висновки про те, що впродовж усього свого творчого життя він був тісно зв’язаний зі словом і послідовно реалізовувався у слові. Практичне значення дослідження полягає у тому, що його результатами можуть користуватися як театрознавці, так і теоретики та історики українського і зарубіжного письменства.

TTE was done by ALOKA SSD-5000. Platelets count (PC), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelets distribution width (PDW) and platelet-to-leucocyte ratio (PLR) was obtained by common blood count. Platelets amino acids spectrum was detected by method of ion exchange liquid column chromatography.
Results: II group patients had significantly lower PC (12.20%) and higher MPV (9.30%) and PLR (41.12%) then in I group, P<0.05. II group patients had significantly higher levels of platelets isoleucine (10.73%), leucine (12.63%) and lower threonine (23.05%), serine (5.06%), glycine (32.21%), valine (30.83%) levels then in I group, P<0.05. II group patients had significantly higher levels of left atrium diameter (10.03%), left atrium volume (15.40%) and left atrium volume index (11.48%) then in I group, P <0.05. Left atrium volume and left atrium volume index were corelated with PC (r=-0.315 and r=-0.444 consequently), MPV (r=0.327 and r=0.331 consequently), PLR (r=0.313 and r=0.303 consequently) and platelets serine (r=-0.302 and r=-0.310 consequently), alanine (r=-0.306 and r=-0.355 consequently) and leucine (r=0.346 and r=0.311 consequently), P<0.05. Left ventricular mass and left ventricular mass index were corelated with MPV (r=0.308 and r=0.301 consequently), PLR (r=0.307 and r=0.305 consequently) and platelets arginine (r=0.366 and r=0.305 consequently), threonine (r=-0.474 and r=-0.383 consequently), serine (r=-0.387 and r=-0.361 consequently), alanine (r=-0.342 and r=-0.326 consequently), isoleucine (r=0.355 and r=0.328 consequently) and tyrosine (r=0.307 and r=0.321 consequently), P<0.05.
Conclusions: Left atrium size and left ventricular mass are connected with MPV, PLR and platelets amino acids content: serine, threonine, alanine, leucine, isoleucine and tyrosine levels.
Advantages of aluminum as a structural material for an agricultural robotic truck
Authors: Seitov S. K.
Published: March 2024

With the development of the trend towards robot facilitation of farmers’ work, the need for their most effective implementation in the agricultural sector (including horticulture) becomes more urgent. In materials science and agricultural freight robotics, there is still no univocal opinion on what structural materials are most preferable based on technical, economic, and environmental criteria. Authors rarely relate the capabilities of structural materials for robots to a decrease in specific ground pressure. Engineering needs studies comparing different structural materials most suitable to produce agricultural load-carrying robots.

   This article aims to conduct a comparative investigation of three variants for an agricultural robotic truck with a steel, aluminum, or fiberglass body to justify the most acceptable material.

   Aluminum was hypothesized to be superior to steel and fiberglass as an agricultural freight robot material. Three robot versions were constructed using steel, aluminum, or fiberglass. They were then tested under field conditions, and the obtained results were recorded. In economic terms, using fi berglass is more justifi ed than aluminum. This is explained by the reduction in robot operating costs due to the lower density of fiberglass (1,900 versus 2,700 kg/m3). However, in terms of the environmental criterion, fiberglass loses because it contains formaldehyde and is difficult to recycle.
Divine Breath and the Process of Creation. The Allusions to Gen 2:7 in the Catechetical Rhetoric of Cyril of Jerusalem
Authors: Huovinen Harri
Published: March 2024

Previous scholarship inadequately acknowledged the diverse ways in which Cyril of Jerusalem employed the breath-related vocabulary related to or derived from Gen 2:7. A systematic analysis of Cyril’s catechetical homilies revealed that in his rhetoric, this vocabulary was utilized in several distinct contexts. First, it was used to describe the creation of humans as living beings. Secondly, the vocabulary depicted a pre-Pentecost mediation of the Holy Spirit. Thirdly, the Pentecostal outpouring of the Spirit could be interpreted as another form of “breathing.” Fourthly, breath-related vocabulary was employed in reference to three ecclesiastical rites of initiation, indicating their pneumatological significance. This collective utilization of Biblical accounts of breathing, alongside depictions of post-Biblical ecclesiastical rites, formed a coherent narrative aimed at instructing catechetical audiences about the historical sequence of human creation. This narrative encompassed the divine vivification of the tangible body and postlapsarian revivification through the Holy Spirit. Simultaneously, it became evident that Cyril’s use of this vocabulary aligned with his overall allusionary approach to employing Scripture in catechesis.

Benedykt XV, Encyklika "Principi Apostolorum"
Authors: Królikowski Janusz
Published: March 2024

Papież Benedykt XV encykliką Principi Apostolorum dokonał ogłoszenia Efrema Syryjczyka doktorem Kościoła powszechnego. Dokonał w niej uzasadnienia tego aktu odwołując się do znaczenia jego pism i teologii dla Kościołów wschodnich, a także pokazując wymiar uniwersalny jego postaci i jego dzieła teologicznego. Encyklika nie była dotychczas tłumaczona na język polski, dlatego zasługuje na przypomnienie i na skorzystanie z zawartych w niej inspiracji dla badań patrystycznych.

Published: March 2024

Support Vector Machine (SVM) is a machine learning algorithm used for classification. SVM has several advantages such as the ability to handle high-dimensional data, effective in handling nonlinear data through kernel functions, and resistance to overfitting through soft margins. However, SVM has weaknesses, especially when handling missing values in data. The use of SVM must consider the missing values strategy chosen. Missing values in data mining is a serious problem for researchers because it causes many problems such as loss of efficiency, complications in data handling and analysis, and the occurrence of bias due to differences between missing data and complete data. To overcome the above problems, this research focuses on understanding the characteristics of missing values and handling them using the Multiple Imputation by Chained Equations (MICE) technique. In this study, we utilized secondary data experiments that contain missing values from the Meteorological, Climatological, and Geophysical Agency (called BMKG) related to predictions of potential rain, especially in DKI Jakarta. Identification of types or patterns of missing values, exploration of the relationship between missing values and other variables, incorporation of the MICE method to handle missing values, and the Support Vector Machine Algorithm for classification will be carried out to produce a more reliable and accurate prediction model for rain potential. It shows that the imputation method with the MICE gives better results than other techniques (such as Complete Case Analysis, Imputation Method Mean, Median, Mode, and K-Nearest neighbor), namely an accuracy of 89% testing data when applying the Support Vector Machine algorithm for classification.
