Ecología interior: “emparamar” la alfabetización ecológica. Sobre Niñapájaroglaciar de Mariana Matija
Authors: Bolte Rike
Published: January 2025

This article focuses on the inner ecology of Niñapájaroglaciar (2023) by Colombian writer-activist Mariana Matija, which, as a recent ecocritical essay, dissents from a discriminating ecology of, on the one hand, the interrelations of organisms in an energetic and material environment and balance called natural, and, on the other, the interactive coherence of human identities, faculties and individual behaviors. The theoretical corpus is made up of annotations on deep ecology, punctual reflections of Donna Haraway and Vinciane Despret, and other, more general, on the notion of Anthropocene, which tangle Matija’s thought, but surprisingly do not contaminate it. The close reading of Niñapájaroglaciar also resorts to an interview between the author and Carolina Sanín (2021). Reflections on dwelling in Despret and Vilém Flusser, concepts of interiority and exteriority in German-speaking philosophical anthropology (Helmuth Plessner et al.), are spliced to close with observations on the (situated) in/exteriority between páramo and patio.

Published: January 2025

Objective:

The conflicting results of the Bethesda system for reporting thyroid cytopathology (BSRTC) and B-Raf proto-oncogene (BRAF) mutation status during pre-operative fine-needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of thyroid nodules create a dilemma for clinicians in devising appropriate treatment strategies for patients. This study provides a report on the histopathological findings of 687 thyroid nodules with an indeterminate cytological diagnosis after the combination of the BSRTC and BRAF mutation status.

Material and Methods:

The clinical data of patients with thyroid nodules, suspicious of malignancy at ultrasound (US), who underwent US-guided FNAC between December 2020 and March 2023 at our cancer center were reviewed. Patients with an indeterminate diagnosis, that is, conflicting results of the BSRTC and BRAF mutation status after FNAC, were enrolled. The following four combinations of BSRTC and BRAF mutation status were considered indeterminate: (1) Group 1, BSRTC I and positive for a BRAF mutation; (2) Group 2, BSRTC II and positive for a BRAF mutation; (3) Group 3, BSRTC III and positive for a BRAF mutation; and (4) Group 4, BSRTC V and negative for a BRAF mutation. Finally, only patients who underwent surgical treatment at our center were included in the data analysis.

Results:

Among the 1,044 eligible patients, 687 underwent surgical treatment. Of the 687 patients, 117 were in Group 1, 14 in Group 2, 394 in Group 3, and 162 in Group 4. Histopathological examination showed that 677 (98.5%) patients had papillary thyroid cancer, including 585 with papillary thyroid microcarcinoma, whereas only 10 (1.5%) had benign nodules. The malignancy rates were 98.3%, 100%, 98.7%, and 98.1% for Groups 1 to 4, respectively. Among the 387 patients in category 4A by the thyroid imaging reporting and data system (TI-RADS 4A) through the US, the malignancy rate was 98.4%, and for the 116 nodules <5 mm in diameter in the US, the malignancy rate was 99.1%. When combining TI-RADS 4A and a nodule diameter <5 mm, the malignancy rate was 98.9% (88/89). A total of 179 patients (26.1%) had histopathologically confirmed central cervical lymph node metastasis, and 46 (6.8%) had lateral cervical lymph node metastasis. Two nodules in Group 1, five nodules in Group 3, and three nodules in Group 4 were determined to be benign post-surgery. The benign thyroid nodules included seven dysplastic, one adenomatous, one fibrotic, and one hyperplastic.

Conclusion:

Thyroid nodules, suspicious of malignancy on US, after the combined interpretation of BSRTC and BRAF mutation status following pre-operative FNAC had a high risk of malignancy. Repeat US-guided FNAC for indeterminate thyroid nodules is highly recommended in clinical practice.
CAR-T therapy and allogeneic stem cell transplantation for refractory acute myeloid leukemia: A comparative study
Authors: Yousif Nasser Ghaly , Nöth Ulrich Aran , Al-Amran Fadhil Ghaly
Published: January 2025

Children with chemo-refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have a poor prognosis and a high frequency of relapsed and/or refractory AML, with a poor result of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). An external major histocompatibility antigens-independent antigen-binding domain, a transmembrane-linking domain, and an intracellular costimulatory T-cell signaling domain or numerous domains make up chimeric antigen receptor T lymphocytes (CARTs). By specifically targeting CD19, CART have proved effective in improving therapy results for B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia. AML is defined as the absence of a myeloid counterpart to CD19, or a “expendable” antigen. Occasionally, AML will produce the T-cell antigen CD7, which anti-CD7 CAR-T-cells can target to destroy CD7-bearing T-cells. In conclusion; myeloid antigen-directed CART-cell therapy might cause remission in AML patients who are not responding to treatment and myeloid antigen-directed CAR-T therapy can be used as a bridge to allogeneic HSCT in r/r AML.
Experiences and Meanings of Leisure among the Middle-class Baby Boomers Residing in Metropolitan Area
Authors:   Korea Gerontol Res Soc, Kim Junghyun
Published: January 2025

In Korea, the baby boomer generation has recently begun to enter the older population, and their socioeconomic status is higher than that of previous older generations. They are interested in how they will use their leisure time after retirement, but there has been a lack of research specifically examining their leisure activities. This study examined the overall experiences and opinions regarding the leisure activities of eight middle-class baby boomers residing in the metropolitan area. The data collection methods was a focus group interview (FGI) survey centered on semi-structured questions that included the experiences and opinions. The primary findings of the FGI were that patterns of leisure activities differed between weekdays and weekends, and the main motivations for the leisure activities were to maintain health and to promote social relationships and communications. In addition, factors that hinder them from enjoying the leisure activities include financial burdens, health problems, and lack of time, while the leisure activities they want are activities that can generate a small amount of income or activities that give them a sense of accomplishment or reward. The findings of this study imply that middle-class baby boomers desire an environment where they can enjoy leisure activities and stay healthy as they age, and prefer leisure activities that give them a sense of accomplishment or fulfillment, such as social volunteering or paid activities. The last part of this research discussed the need for leisure support policies taking into account the unique leisure-related needs of the baby boomers, which are different from those of previous older generations.

Published: January 2025

В статье описаны этапы, направленные на улучшение слухового внимания и слухоречевой памяти у детей дошкольного возраста с моторной алалией с использованием нейропсихологического подхода. Автором рассматривается концепция «игровых педагогических технологий» и обосновано использование этих методов для создания материалов коррекционно-логопедической работы по улучшению слухоречевой памяти у старших дошкольников с моторной алалией, что было подтверждено в результате анализа литературных источников. Исследование выявило, что недоразвитие слухоречевой памяти занимает важное место среди неречевых нарушений в структуре психических процессов у детей с моторной алалией. Характеристики слуховой памяти у детей с моторной алалией включают в себя несформированные навыки произвольного слухового внимания и ухудшенную способность сохранять последовательность вербальных инструкций; недостаточно сформированы приемы запоминания; снижен объем кратковременной слухоречевой памяти; снижен объем долговременной слухоречевой памяти; снижен объем смысловой слухоречевой памяти. При планировании коррекционного процесса по развитию слухоречевой памяти необходимо комплексное преодоление всех вышеуказанных отклонений.

The article describes the stages aimed at improving auditory attention and auditory-speech memory in preschool children with motor alalia using a neuropsychological approach. The author considers the concept of "game pedagogical technologies" and justifies the use of these methods to create materials for correctional speech therapy work to improve auditory and speech memory in older preschoolers with motor alalia, which was confirmed by an analysis of literary sources. The study revealed that underdevelopment of auditory-speech memory occupies an important place among non-speech disorders in the structure of mental processes in children with motor alalia. The characteristics of auditory memory in children with motor alalia include unformed skills of arbitrary auditory attention and impaired ability to maintain a sequence of verbal instructions; insufficiently formed memorization techniques; reduced volume of short-term auditory memory; reduced volume of long-term auditory memory; reduced volume of semantic auditory memory. When planning the correctional process for the development of auditory-speech memory, it is necessary to comprehensively overcome all the above deviations.

Published: January 2025

Heterogenous single-atom catalysts (SACs) are reminescent of homogenous catalysts because of similarity of structural motif of active sites, showing the potential of using the advantage of homogenous catalysts to tackle challenges in hetereogenous catalysis. In heterogeneous oxygen electrocatalysis, the homogeneity of adsorption patterns of reaction intermediates leads to scaling relationships that limit their activities. In contrast, homogeneous catalysts can circumvent such limits by selectively altering the adsorption of intermediates through secondary coordination effects (SCE). This inspired us to explored potential SCE in metal-nitrogen-carbon (M-N-C), a promising type of oxygen evolution electrocatalysts. We introduced SCE with a neighboring metal site, which can modulate the adsorption strengths of oxygen-containing intermediates. First-principles calculations show that the second site in heteronuclear duo four-nitrogen-coordinated metal-center can induce SCE that selectively stabilize the OOH intermediate, but with minor effects on the OH intermediate, and thereby, disrupt scaling relation between oxygen-species, and eventually increase the catalytic activity in oxygen evolution reactions. Additionally, the activity of oxygen reduction reaction of selected M-N-C is also enhanced by such SCE. Our computational work underscored the critical role SCE can have in shaping activities of SACs, particularly in altering scaling relationships favorably, and demonstrated its potential of addressing catalytic challenges in heterogeneous catalysis.
Interrogation of the Intermolecular Forces that Drive Bulk Properties of Molecular Crystals with Terahertz Spectroscopy and Density Functional Theory
Authors: Stoll William , Banks Peter , Dannenberg Steven , Waterman Rory , Catalano Luca , Ruggiero Michael
Published: January 2025

Identifying and characterizing intermolecular forces in the condensed phase is crucial for understanding both micro- and macroscopic properties of solids; ranging from solid-state reactivity to thermal expansion. Insight into these interactions enables a holistic comprehension of bulk properties, and thus understanding them has direct implications for supramolecular design. However, even modest changes to intermolecular interactions can create unpredictable changes to solid-state structures and dynamics. For example, copper(II) acetylacetonate (Cu(C5}H7O2)2) and copper(II) hexafluoroacetylacetonate (Cu(C5HF6O2)2) exhibit similar molecular conformations, yet differences between the methyl and trifluoromethyl groups produce distinct sets of intermolecular forces in the condensed phase. Ultimately, these differences produce unique molecular arrangements in the solid state, with corresponding differences in material properties between the two crystals. In this work, terahertz spectroscopy is used to measure low-frequency vibrational dynamics, which, by extension, provide detailed insight into the underlying intermolecular forces that exist in each system. The experimental data is coupled to theoretical quantum mechanical simulations to precisely quantify the interplay between various energetic effects, and these results highlight the delicate balance that is struck between electronic and dispersive interactions that underpin the structural and related differences between the two systems.
Methane Pyrolysis by Joule Heating for Graphitic Carbon and Hydrogen Production
Authors: Alghfeli Abdalla , Xu Hengrui , Heronimus Benjamin , Jeevaretanam Barathan , Spearrin R. Mitchell , Fisher Timothy
Published: January 2025

The global energy transition toward sustainability requires technologies that can decarbonize energy carriers and fuels while producing valuable materials. Methane, a primary component of natural gas, is both a high-energy-density fuel and a significant greenhouse gas. This study reports a new approach for methane pyrolysis utilizing Joule heating within the deposition substrate to drive the endothermic reaction. With electric current passing through a resistive porous carbon cloth, heat is generated to break C-H bonds of methane molecules. The decomposition of methane as it flows through the cloth results in hydrogen production and the formation of conformally layered graphite around the carbon fibers. The effects of input power, chamber pressure, feedstock flow rate, and process duration on hydrogen and graphite production are characterized via in-situ mass spectrometry and laser absorption spectroscopy, with methane conversion rates up to 87%. Material characterization verifies uniform high-quality graphite deposition, with a Raman ID/IG ratio of 0.1 and 3.38 Å d-spacing. This Joule heating method for catalyst-free methane pyrolysis offers the potential for advancing hydrogen production technology by simultaneously producing valuable materials such as solid graphite, thus enhancing the economic viability of the fuel decarbonization process.
The Impact of Firm Age on Independent Audit Committee and Voluntary Disclosure Quality
Authors: Amanamah R. B.
Published: January 2025

Purpose: This research explores to what extent Independent Audit Committees impact Voluntary Disclosure and studies whether a firm's age moderates this relationship in developing economies.
Design/Methodology/Approach: The research employs a longitudinal approach, examining data from 2009 to 2021. The Durbin-Wu-Hausman test was used to assess the existence of endogeneity in the regression model, and a multicollinearity test was conducted to evaluate the level of correlation between independent variables in regression models to ensure the validity and stability of the results.
Findings: The regression analysis demonstrates a positive and significant relationship between the existence of Independent Audit Committees (IAC) and Voluntary Disclosure (VD). However, the study outcome showed that the interlinkage term between IAC and a firm's age was not statistically significant, implying that firm age immaterially alters the importance of audit committees in voluntary disclosure practices.
Research Limitation: The study focused only on three African countries. Future research might look at other African countries
Practical Implication: The study highlights the important function of IACs in improving transparency and promoting trust in financial reporting, particularly in markets with less regulatory oversight. Understanding factors that increase a company’s disclosure is crucial for the success of the global market and economy.
Social Implication: This research's findings will support transparency in reporting, reduce information asymmetry, increase sustainability reporting, and increase investors' confidence in a company’s financial and social reporting.
Originality/ Value: The research's novelty is bridging the gap in the literature by studying the influence of firm age on voluntary disclosure.

Published: January 2025

The article analyzes methodological approaches and educational strategies aimed at developing students' skills in formulating urban development forecasts and scenarios. During the study, third-year students of the "Geography" educational program at K. Zhubanov Aktobe Regional University were engaged in project activities focused on assessing the condition and forecasting the development of two urban districts in Aktobe. The primary focus was on analyzing current data, identifying key factors influencing urban development, and creating various scenarios: optimistic, pessimistic, and status quo. Experimental studies have shown that project activities contribute to the development of critical and creative thinking, systemic understanding, and analytical skills. Throughout the process, students encountered real urban problems and proposed innovative solutions to address them. The article also discusses the importance of ethical awareness and communication skills in formulating forecasts and scenarios, highlighting the need for further research to gain a deeper understanding of the emotional and intellectual aspects of scenario thinking. In our study, we took two steps to better understand the assessment of scenario thinking. First, we used open-ended assignments that evaluated critical and creative thinking. Second, to ensure validity and reliability, we assessed creativity in sketches through group work, as suggested in the literature on creativity in education. The conclusions of the article indicate that the development of these skills in students is a key factor in preparing competent professionals capable of making significant contributions to the sustainable and equitable development of urban areas. Students better assimilate argumentation skills when they observe and analyze examples rather than immediately trying to apply these skills in practice. Such findings may also be useful for teaching scenario thinking, as observing and analyzing examples can contribute to a deeper understanding and development of reflective skills in students.

Authors: Alekseeva I. V. , Andryushchenko E. Yu.
Published: January 2025

The information about fixed assets is crucial for users to understand the operations of commercial organizations, as these assets play a vital role in their activities. The required information about fixed assets is incomplete in organizations’ financial statements. Commercial companies in the Russian mechanical engineering industry, in particular, rely heavily on fixed assets, making up over half of all property-related fixed assets. The study’s objective is to research information about fixed assets in non-financial reports of mechanical engineering organizations. The methodological base includes the theory of accounting and making accounting for financial and non-financial reporting in digitalization. The research focuses on the theoretical framework and methods involved in disclosing information about fixed assets in non-financial reports. The paper provides a comparative analysis of annual reports of organizations in the mechanical engineering industry: their structure, composition and content, classification of fixed assets. The authors proposed a grouping of indicators for evaluating fixed asset efficiency and compiled a list of the most relevant. This research contributes both theoretically and practically by presenting a recommended template for non-financial reporting on intangible assets specifically tailored to organizations in the mechanical engineering field. This will empower interested users to make effective choices in managing fixed assets. The study’s results are useful for mechanical engineering firms that prioritize transparently sharing non-financial information with interested audiences. This research offers valuable theoretical frameworks and practical recommendations for both academics and professionals working on the presentation of financial and non-financial information about fixed assets.
Model of the Process of Production Requirements Management of a Coal Mining Enterprise under VUCA Conditions
Authors: Zotov S. A.
Published: January 2025

The contemporary business environment presents companies with a multitude of uncontrollable risks. These include rapid technological development, changing customer behavior, new business models, shifting laws, and growing competition both domestically and internationally. The dynamic nature of these business environments, marked by high speed, complexity, multiple factors, and uncertainty, makes it difficult for companies to adapt and manage their operations. The relevance of finding new solutions for the company will only grow in the near future. The study aims to design a management model that accommodates the complex nature of analytical and control processes, ultimately boosting competitiveness. This paper explores the characteristics of a methodology for handling production demands in a coal mining firm within a VUCA environment, identifying major uncertainties and their solutions. The research used methods such as analysis, synthesis, systems approach and modeling. The paper proposes a model for managing coal mining enterprises using digital technologies. This model draws upon the best practices from both foreign and Russian industries and incorporates automation for planning, risk management, and feedback. The study demonstrates the significance of swift system feedback for optimizing coal mining operations under conditions of uncertainty. The outcome is a model that treats the coal mining enterprise’s production system as a unified whole. This model integrates management and operational subsystems into one large system, enabling effective management of financial, production, and human resources. This approach aims to optimize resource utilization. The author shows how to transform a business process “As is” into “To be”, as well as which fundamental weaknesses require special attention. Furthermore, the author suggests a multifactor feedback system to spot weaknesses and errors, allowing for their correction. The updated management model significantly cuts down on the time and workforce needed for the business process.
