Neonatal hypoglycemia is the most common metabolic disorder during the neonatal period. Despite its frequency of occurrence, there is no specific glucose concentration that defines it. Various symptoms and clinical manifestations characterize it, and its complications are related to its severity and duration. This review aims at comparing the recommendations of the American Academy of Pediatrics, the Pediatric Endocrine Society, and the Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine regarding the risk factors, the diagnosis, and the management of hypoglycemia. The complexity of hypoglycemia management and the research questions that need to be answered are highlighted by comparing the three guidelines. Preventing neonatal hypoglycemia by monitoring the maternal glucose concentrations, exploring and defining the optimal glycemic targets, investigating the long-term benefits after following these guidelines, and searching for less invasive diagnostic and therapeutic tools may help healthcare professionals make informed decisions to achieve better outcomes for these neonates.
Use of Extraterrestrial Resources and Recycling Water: Curb Your Enthusiasm
Authors: Donald Rapp
Published: September 2024

The NASA approach for technology development for missions is to (1) wait for a mission need, and (2) upgrade the technology available at that time, however inadequate. This is illustrated with two important NASA technologies: in situ resource utilization (ISRU) and recycling wastewater. It also serves as a review with 49 references provided. NASA funding for ISRU has been sporadic and minimal, probably because no mission was being implemented that used ISRU. The state of the technology remains underdeveloped. For example, CO2 in the Mars atmosphere supplies carbon and oxygen. However, we still do not have a viable system to acquire CO2 and compress it with acceptable power requirements and adequate lifetime. NASA technology for recycling wastewater was developed for the International Space Station. It requires frequent attention with replenishment and replacement of subsystems. This system appears to be inadequate for Mars missions and there is no evidence that NASA has a viable plan to fix that.
The Mechanisms of Immune Evasion in Cancer Stem Cells and Related Immunotherapy Advances
Authors: Zeng Ziyang
Published: September 2024

Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs), as a unique subset of tumor cells, play a crucial role in tumor initiation, progression, and recurrence due to their self-renewal and differentiation capabilities. CSCs exhibit significant immune evasion abilities, allowing them to escape host immune surveillance, leading to the failure of conventional treatments. This paper reviews the definition, characteristics, and immune evasion mechanisms of CSCs, including immune checkpoint pathways, immunosuppressive microenvironment, and changes in surface antigen expression. Additionally, it explores various immunotherapies targeting CSCs, such as immune checkpoint inhibitors, CAR-T cell therapy, tumor vaccines, and other emerging therapies, discussing their research progress and clinical application prospects. By comprehensively understanding the immune evasion mechanisms of CSCs and related immunotherapies, we aim to provide new insights and strategies for future cancer treatments.
Research on Low Liquid Holdup Two Phase Flow in Horizontal Pipe
Authors: Zhang Xinhai , Li Tong , Zhang Yuxin , Liu Yuanjie
Published: September 2024

Low liquid content gas-liquid two-phase flow is widely present in wet natural gas pipelines and is one of the typical phenomena of gas-liquid two-phase flow. Liquid hydrocarbons and free water are consistently produced during the natural gas extraction and transportation processes due to factors such as pressure differentials and temperature fluctuations, leading to a low liquid-holdup pipe flow. Previous research has shown that this reduced liquid retention significantly increases pressure loss compared to single-phase gas flow. Accurately predicting pressure drop is crucial for the selection of pipeline size, pipe material, and pressurization equipment. At the same time, the liquid holdup rate is also an important parameter that determines the frequency of natural gas pipeline cleaning and the design of downstream equipment. Therefore, this article mainly focuses on the characteristics of gas-liquid two-phase flow with low liquid content during wet natural gas transportation. This article studies the gas-liquid two-phase flow patterns and different gas-liquid interface models in the literature. This article mainly compares and analyzes three low liquid content gas-liquid two-phase flow models in the literature.
Digital Sharing of Social Public Resources and Its Influencing Factors: Insight from China
Authors: Li Qian
Published: September 2024

Digital sharing of social public resources (SPRs) is an approach of resource-allocation that can effectively compensate for the limitations of time, space and communication modes in accessing SPRs and achieve the balanced allocation of them. The purpose of this paper is to study the development level of digital sharing of SPRs and its influencing factors. The panel data of 31 Chinese provinces from 2015 to 2020 are collected. A comprehensive evaluation index system for digital sharing of SPRs is constructed to evaluate its development level using the Global Entropy Weight Method (GEWM). And the influencing factors of the sharing level are systematically identified based on the stepwise regression model. The results show that: the development level of digital sharing of SPRs varies significantly among Chinese provinces and cities, but the overall development level is gradually increasing. The government fiscal expenditure capacity, industrial structure, regional economic development level, scientific and technological innovation capacity, and urbanization level can promote the digital sharing of SPRs. The degree of external openness and regional population size have negative effects on the digital sharing of SPRs.
Study on the influence of ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting on the change of body fat rate
Authors: Yu Puyuan
Published: September 2024

The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting on the change of body fat rate, and to provide more scientific and effective methods for obese people to lose weight. Through randomized controlled trial design, 120 overweight or obese subjects were recruited and randomly divided into four groups for 12 weeks of dietary intervention. The control group kept their daily eating habits, while the ketogenic diet group adopted a diet scheme of high fat, low carbohydrate and moderate protein. The intermittent fasting group chose two days a week for light fasting, while the combined group used ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting at the same time. The research results show that both the ketogenic diet group and the intermittent fasting group can effectively reduce the weight and body fat percentage of the subjects, and the combination of the two has the most significant effect. The ketogenic diet group showed the greatest decrease in body weight and body fat percentage, at -3.5 ± 1.2kg and -4.8 ± 1.5%, respectively, while the combined group showed a more significant decrease, reaching -4.7 ± 1.4kg and -6.3 ± 1.8%, respectively. Regression analysis shows that ketogenic diet, intermittent fasting and their combination have significant effects on body fat rate, and the increase of weekly exercise time is also significantly related to the decrease of body fat rate. The study also found that ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting have their own advantages in reducing body fat rate, but they may also bring certain health risks, such as hypoglycemia and ketoacidosis. Therefore, doctors or nutritionists should tailor the diet plan according to individual conditions and pay attention to its potential side effects. This study provides a new weight loss option for obese people and provides a direction for future research.

Published: September 2024

An experimental study on the effects of beeswax incorporated in the construction of the absorber for a solar still was conducted. As part of the study, two solar stills of the same geometry were constructed with the same water depth and volume. The one without a phase change material (PCM) was used as the control still, while the other with beeswax as a phase change material laid at the bottom of its basin to serve as an absorber was used as the experimental still. The experiments were conducted in the thermodynamic laboratory of JS Tarka University, Makurdi, Nigeria, between 10.00 am and 5.00 pm for two weeks. 16 litres of water were used for each still, corresponding to 100 mm depth. The stills were kept side by side and exposed to sunshine from 10.00 am to 5.00 pm for three days. Temperatures of the water at inlet and in the still were measured. HT-9815 digital thermocouple was used to determine the temperature of water in the basin and that of the inner glass cover. SM206 solar power meter was used to measure the amount of solar energy incident on the still’s collector. The results showed that the still with beeswax as phase change material (experimental still) has an improved thermal efficiency enhancement of 109.30% as compared to the still without a phase change material with a thermal efficiency enhancement of 86.1%. This implies that beeswax is a good phase change material for solar stills, and the use of beeswax should be encouraged as it is non-toxic and organic.

Authors: Mawarni Gea
Published: September 2024

The Church is a community of all God's people, namely all believers who have received baptism in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit and have been united with God the Father through the person of Jesus Christ. As believers, we are called and sent to continue the work of Jesus Christ in the world. This call and mission came from Jesus Christ when He sent His disciples to preach the Gospel throughout the world. “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to observe everything that I have commanded you. And know that I am with you always until the end of time (Matt. 28:19-20).” In continuing Her work, the Church hopes that all of God's people will take part. The Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), produced sixteen documents and one of them was the Decree on the Apostolate of the Laity (Apostolicam Actuositatem). In the Lay Apostolate Decree, lay people are called to apostolate. Lay apostolate is a form of involvement of lay people to take part in the Tritasks of Christ, namely as Priest, Prophet and King. Lay people have duties and responsibilities in actualizing their faith through the work and tasks they carry out every day. The faith lived must be expressed and practiced. In actualizing faith, lay people can carry it out through various areas of life, including: in the Church, family, social environment and politics, both nationally and internationally. The involvement of lay people in various areas of life, the Church hopes that their presence will be salt and light for the world. The laity always strive to fight for the common welfare with the spirit of the Gospel. So that with its presence, the Kingdom of God becomes more real in the world and becomes a blessing for many people and becomes the glory of God's name. In this way, the world increasingly knows, accepts and acknowledges Jesus Christ as the only way to the Father because He is the only goal of life.

This study aims to determine how the elderly congregation responded to the earthquake disaster, and the faith struggles of the elderly of the HKI Partangga church congregation after the earthquake based on the perspective of disaster theology. The theory used in this study is to use expert theories related to disaster theology, the theory of Zakaria J. Ngelow which emphasizes that natural disasters occur not as punishment from God, but as normal events in nature and there is no biblical record that says that God punishes sinful humans, but loves and forgives, redeems and saves humans from the wrapping of sin. The study in this research uses a qualitative method, with a descriptive analysis approach, which aims to describe the actual situation. Data collection techniques are carried out by observation, in-depth interviews. The findings of this study are that the elderly of the HKI Partangga congregation responded to the earthquake with: the emergence of fear, feeling the presence of God. In addition to responding, the elderly also provide perspectives that are different from the perspective of disaster theology on natural disasters. The elderly provide a perspective that is different from the Christian faith, which understands that earthquakes are God's punishment for sin, questions arise to God about what sins are committed, earthquakes are God's plan.
ON RECENT -BIL DERIVATIVES IN ROMANIAN
Authors:   University of Bucharest, Faculty of Foreign Languages and Literatures, TĂNASE-DOGARU MIHAELA
Published: September 2024

The paper investigates a corpus of 72 recent -bil derivatives, used mainly in contemporary Romanian journalese (Croitor 2021). The paper shows that -bil adjectives in Romanian fall into two categories: fully eventive adjectives, characterized by the presence of by-phrases and/or adverbial event modifiers and fully stative adjectives, simply indicating a property of the referent (Oltra-Massuet 2013). A second result of the analysis is the fact that the boundary between the two identified classes is blurry, in the sense that -bil adjectives actually form a continuum from eventive adjectives to fully stative -bil adjectives (Wasak 2021). Thirdly, the productivity of -bil can be explained by means of usefulness, fashion, and nameability (Plag 2002).

UMANESIMO E CONTRORIFORMA NEI DIALOGHI PIACEVOLI DI STEFANO GUAZZO
Authors:   Universität Innsbruck, Austria, PAGLIARDINI ANGELO
Published: September 2024

In 1586, the writer Stefano Guazzo publishes Dialoghi piacevoli. The treatise is made up of a collection of dialogues and has among its protagonists the “Prencipe della Valacchia Maggiore”, Petru Cercel, indicated as a model of the ideal prince. The work was conceived during the implementation of the rules of the Council of Trent: that political, cultural, and religious system defined in historiography as the Counter-Reformation. Stefano Guazzo outlines the system of courts, in which the relations between the prince and courtiers are organised as a true “forma del vivere”. The writer constantly refers to the values and ideal questions of humanism, such as the formation of the prince and the courtier, or the relationship between letters and arms, according to the writings of ancient Latin and Greek writers. At the same time, he has to adapt the thought and the literature of ancient writers with the principles imposed by the Counter-Reformation. In his book, one can also see an attempt to define the European space from Spain and France to Poland and Wallachia as Catholic.
REZONANŢE ÎNTRE CONCEPŢIA NON-OEDIPIANĂ A LUI GHERASIM LUCA ȘI POSTUMANISMUL CRITIC
Authors:   Università degli Studi di Napoli “L’Orientale”, ROTIROTI GIOVANNI
Published: September 2024

The article aims to point out that Gherasim Luca’s concept of non-oedipal existence resonates with the work of Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, anticipating the nomad thought and the contemporary posthuman critical theory – as formulated by Rosi Braidotti – centred on a critical posthumanism and an affirmative politics. The key-concept of Gherasim Luca, already present in his Romanian work, is that of “Non-Oedipus”. It’s a radical view of existence that anticipates by almost 30 years the theoretical achievements of Deleuze and Guattari’s works Anti-Oedipus and A Thousand Plateaus.

Published: September 2024

Phase change materials have excellent thermal energy storage capacity, making them an appealing option for energy management applications. Stabilizing the form of phase change materials enhances their practical effectiveness. This research focuses on sustaining the shape of low molecular weight PEG phase change materials in wood structures made from natural balsa wood. The alkalization process is used to modify the wood, after which the PEG/epoxy polymers are infused into the wood structure to form a synthetic phase change material. The process of treating wood with alkali involves partially removing lignin from the wood, creating specific spaces. Results from optical transmittance analysis demonstrate that wood treated with alkali and wood infused with phase change polymer exhibit high optical transmittance. SEM images also illustrate the presence of spaces in delignified wood treated with Epoxy/PEG 400 and Epoxy/PEG 600. The synthetic phase change material remains stable at temperatures below 310°C and possesses a ∆Hc of 170.1J/g to 162.8 J/g. The phase transition temperatures during heating are 56.4°C and 57.2°C, cooling is 25.7°C and 30.1°C.

However, the current state of coral reefs is alarming, with more than 93% of coral ecosystems being damaged primarily by human activity and climate change. In line with UN Sustainable Development Goals 13 and 14, this research aims to analyze coral bleaching in soft corals in Korea and coral reefs in Malaysia through field surveys and interviews to assess their current conditions. This study also explores strategies for the restoration of coral ecosystems, utilizing economic valuation methods such as the Toolkit for Ecosystem Service Site-Based Assessment (TESSA). Despite the limitations of applying a landscape-focused methodology to the marine environment and the lack of available data, this study emphasizes the importance of sustainable tourism and collaborative educational curricula involving governmental research institutes, universities, NGOs, and divers. These efforts are inspired by interactions with the Borneo Marine Research Institute (BMRI) at Sabah University and the Reef Check Center in Malaysia.
The Urgent Call for Academic Action: Rebooting SDGs to Reset Our Future
Authors: An Shinki
Published: September 2024

This manuscript, presented at GEEF2024, emphasizes the critical role of academia in revitalizing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to address current global challenges. The SDGs, adopted in 2015, aim to eradicate poverty and promote sustainable development by 2030. However, progress has stalled due to financial constraints, governance issues, the COVID-19 pandemic, and geopolitical crises such as the Russian–Ukraine war. The COVID-19 pandemic has had multifaceted impacts, reversing poverty reduction trends and disrupting education and energy investments. It has also exacerbated social inequalities, leading to the conceptualization of COVID-19 as a syndemic, an ecodemic, and an econodemic. These terms highlight the pandemic's complex interplay with preexisting health issues, environmental degradation, and economic disparities. Geopolitical crises have further hindered SDG progress by disrupting food and energy supplies and diverting resources from sustainable development initiatives. Climate change, marked by unprecedented heatwaves and natural disasters, poses additional threats to achieving the SDGs. The need for carbon neutrality and effective international cooperation is more urgent than ever before. In this context, universities play a crucial role in advancing the SDGs through research, innovation, and community engagement. Engaged universities align their research agendas with the SDGs, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration and developing solutions to global challenges. Yonsei University's Institute for Global Engagement and Empowerment (IGEE) exemplifies this approach with its Yonsei SDGs Initiative. By analyzing research outputs via natural language processing, the initiative aligns academic activities with SDGs, particularly in health and well-being. The GEEF2024 conference underscored the importance of innovative strategies and international cooperation in achieving the SDGs. Discussions highlighted the need to address mental health crises, low birth rates, and the care economy's undervaluation. The conference also emphasized the necessity of inclusive development strategies that reflect the perspectives and priorities of Africa and Asia.In conclusion, universities must integrate social engagement into their core missions to remain relevant and impactful. By prioritizing research, teaching, and services that contribute to sustainable development, academia can play a pivotal role in overcoming global challenges and achieving the SDGs.

Authors: Song In Han , Lee Kyeong Won
Published: September 2024

The United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal 16 (SDG 16) aims to promote peaceful, inclusive societies and build effective, accountable institutions. Despite the growing influence of online media on political activities in the digital age and the increasing importance of achieving SDG 16 through political participation, there has been a lack of empirical research on this topic. This cross-cultural comparative study investigates the relationships among online communication, social capital, and political participation in South Korea and the United States. Online surveys were conducted in both countries, focusing on people's interest and trust in online communication, types of online social capital (bonding and bridging), and engagement in conventional and unconventional forms of political participation. Our findings underscore the pivotal role of social media as a platform for citizens to voice their political opinions and partake in democratic processes. We discovered a significant correlation between heightened interest and trust in online communication and increased political participation in both countries. This correlation is instrumental in achieving SDG 16.7, which advocates for inclusive and participatory decision-making. This study also highlights the nuanced differences in the relationship between online social capital and political participation. In South Korea, bridging online social capital is associated with unconventional political activities, whereas in the United States, bonding online social capital is linked to these forms of engagement. However, in both countries, participation in presidential elections is associated with bridging online social capital, providing a deeper understanding of the complex dynamics at play. The potential of social media to expand opportunities for citizens to participate in the political process and hold their governments accountable contributes to achieving SDG 16.6, which aims to develop effective, accountable, and transparent institutions. However, the study also serves as a reminder of the challenges posed by online polarization and misinformation. To fully realize the benefits of social media in promoting inclusive and sustainable social development, addressing these issues and fostering healthy online communities are essential.In conclusion, this study underscores the importance of promoting online communication and building robust online communities as key strategies for achieving SDG 16, engaging a wide range of stakeholders in the process of building a more equitable and sustainable future.

As of 2023, over half of South Korea's 228 regions face population extinction, despite substantial local government efforts. This study examines why the "Busan-Ulsan-Gyeongnam (Bu-Ul-Gyeong) Megacity" initiative failed to address this issue. By analyzing the successful revitalization of Kawaba village in Japan, which attracted more than 2.5 million tourists, this study proposes an innovative solution tailored to South Korea—the "Gyeongbuk Four Seasons Theme Park." This project aims to revitalize the Gyeongbuk region's economy and reverse population decline, contributing to Sustainable Development Goal 11: "Sustainable Cities and Communities."This study uses a comparative case study methodology to analyze the Bu-Ul-Gyeong Megacity initiative and Kawaba Village. Data collection involved a review of policy documents and academic literature for the former and fieldwork, including interviews and observations, for the latter. The key participants included local government officials and employees in Kawaba Village. Insights from Kawaba were applied to design the "Gyeongbuk Four Seasons Theme Park," which integrates successful elements from Kawaba's model while addressing the shortcomings of the Bu-Ul-Gyeong initiative.The Bu-Ul-Gyeong initiative failed because of a lack of economic revitalization planning, insufficient community engagement, and poor cooperation between governments. Kawaba village succeeded in establishing partnerships, fostering local enterprises, and maintaining effective government communication. These factors are critical in overcoming challenges in regional development.This study proposes the "Gyeongbuk Four Seasons Theme Park," a rotating, seasonal attraction across four cities, emphasizing local specialties and resident participation. This project aims to increase population inflow and establish sustainable agricultural enterprises, contributing to the economic revitalization of the Gyeongbuk region.
Effective solution-building to prevent dropouts in Korea: The case of Q&A diary development†
Authors: Kim Sumin
Published: September 2024

The number of out-of-school youth in South Korea has been increasing recently, leading to a corresponding rise in school dropouts. Moreover, the importance of schools is also diminishing. However, schools are a national system designed to protect adolescents, and the collapse of this system is far from desirable. Despite this crisis, support policies for out-of-school youth remain overly simplistic. Current policies in South Korea regarding out-of-school youth are based on a fragmented understanding of these adolescents, focusing primarily on preventing dropouts. These policies fail to consider the various sociocultural backgrounds and contexts influencing adolescents’ decision to leave school. For example, “dropping out” and “academic discontinuation” are more problematic issues. The ultimate goal of this study is not only to prevent dropouts but also to assist adolescents in making the best decisions on the basis of a deep understanding of their identities. As a first step, a diary was designed to enhance self-understanding by fostering narrative identity formation. A user test was conducted to create a Q&A diary that can assist out-of-school youth, and a literature review was performed to design practical solutions for preventing dropouts. Ultimately, this paper proposes increasing the flexibility of the school system and strengthening self-understanding activities in career education as measures to prevent dropout.
