Elze estalquia y otras antiguas injurias vascas
Authors: Zulaika Hernández Josu M.
Published: June 2024

Aunque escrita en castellano, el examen de la documentación procesal conservada en los archivos de Vasconia nos permite, en ocasiones, recuperar voces vascas. Y, en el concreto campo semántico de los insultos en euskera, los procesos criminales por injurias se han revelado como una productiva fuente de documentación de los mismos. En este artículo, abordaremos el estudio de diversas injurias vascas localizadas en ocho pleitos inéditos incoados entre los años 1614 y 1728 en Araba (1), Bizkaia (1) y Gipuzkoa (6), siendo alguno de dichos insultos hasta ahora desconocidos. Adicionalmente, reflexionaremos acerca del posible sentido de la voz vasca erroi, usada como agravio en la Navarra del siglo XVI.

The study aims to formulate an oral in-situ gel for sustained paracetamol delivery, targeting pediatric and geriatric patients. A blend of sodium alginate, chitosan, and Gelucires was used to create the gel. Characterization techniques, such as rheology and in vivo bioavailability tests on rat models, were employed. The in-situ gel transitioned into a gel-matrix system in 0.1N HCl, effectively controlling the release of paracetamol at different pH levels (1.2, 5.4, and 6.8). Gels made solely of sodium alginate or sodium alginate-chitosan exhibited rapid drug release at pH 6.8. The formulation containing paracetamol in a Gelucire (G33/01):3-3% sodium alginate - chitosan ratio of 1:1:4 w/w showed an extended drug release time of over 8 hours. Bioavailability in rats revealed a higher time to maximum concentration (Tmax) and lower peak concentration (Cmax) but comparable mean residence time (MRT) and area under the curve (AUC0-∞) to commercial formulations. The gel's synergistic blend of chitosan, sodium alginate, and Gelucire G33/01 ensures a sustained release of paracetamol, making it a promising drug delivery system for vulnerable populations like children and the elderly.
The Protective Role of Lannea coromandelica (Houtt.) Merr. against Histamine Release and Action: Insights from In vitro, In vivo Investigations
Authors: S Swathi , K Lakshman
Published: June 2024

This study aims to evaluate the antihistaminic potential of the plant extract from Lannea coromandelica using both in vitro and in vivo models. In vitro antihistaminic effects were studied using isolated guinea pig ileum to assess dose-dependent inhibitory impacts on histamine-induced contractions. Mast cell density was evaluated using a mast cell count model, calculating the average number of mast cells per unit area in the mesentery. For in vivo assessments, a histamine aerosol-induced bronchospasm model in guinea pigs was used, where pre-convulsive dyspnea (PCD) onset time was noted as pre-convulsive time (PCT). Additionally, a clonidine-induced mast cell degranulation model in rats was employed, with cells stained using 1% toluidine blue to count intact and degranulated mast cells. The Lannea coromandelica extract exhibited a dose-dependent inhibition of histamine-induced contractions in isolated guinea pig ileum. Similarly, the extract inhibited mast cell degranulation in a dose-dependent manner, with a higher dose of 400 mg/kg proving more effective than a lower dose of 200 mg/kg. Acute toxicity studies confirmed the safety of the extract at moderate doses, revealing no toxic symptoms at a dosage of 2000 mg/kg body weight. Importantly, the extract significantly increased PCT in guinea pigs and reduced the percentage of disrupted mast cells induced by clonidine. Lannea coromandelica shows promising antihistaminic properties, effectively inhibiting histamine-induced bronchospasm and mast cell degranulation, which can be an option for the development of antiasthmatic drugs.

Authors: Lewis Ibrahim , Tahat Tasneem Y , Ajlouny Sara , Mukattash Tareq L. , Al Tall Yara , Jarab Anan S. , Alabbadi Ibrahim
Published: June 2024

Background: In Jordan, medicines are priced by the Jordan Food and Drug Administration (JFDA), which mandates pharmacists to sell pharmaceutical products without any discounts or rebates. However, discounting drug prices in community pharmacies is commonplace. The present study aims to understand the motives and perceptions of pharmacists regarding drug price discounts in community pharmacies in Jordan.
Methods: Qualitative interview sessions were conducted with a convenient sample of 20 community pharmacists. A total of 25 participants were interviewed, anonymized, and audio recorded. To ensure maximum comfort, respondents were given the option to choose the interview location or participate through audio-visual communication tools. The sessions followed a pre-designed interview guide focusing on discounts offered on prescription drugs in community pharmacies, pharmacists' experiences, and their attitudes toward these practices. Interview recordings were transcribed and analyzed thematically.
Results: Three main themes emerged: patient-related factors, pharmacist-related factors, and rules and regulations-related factors, each with several subthemes. This study identified several barriers that hinder pharmacists’ adherence to medicine pricing policies in community pharmacies in Jordan, including psychosocial and economic factors, customer attraction and profit increase strategies, sales tactics, market share expansion, avoidance of medicine accumulation and expiration, and issues related to regulations and law enforcement.
Conclusion: The findings demonstrate that adherence to medicine pricing policies in community pharmacies in Jordan varies depending on different factors. Pharmacists may exhibit weak adherence under specific circumstances while demonstrating stronger adherence under others. This study provides insights that could inform the revision of regulations and laws governing pharmacy practices and adherence to pricing policies.
Association between ABO Blood Group System and the Severity of COVID-19 in the West Bank: A Case-control Study
Authors: Khdour Maher , Obeyat Alaa
Published: June 2024

Introduction: Several studies have examined risk factors for COVID-19, and there have been conflicting results regarding whether blood type influences the risk of COVID-19. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the association between the ABO blood group system and the severity of COVID-19 in the West Bank of Palestine.
Methods: A case-control study design was used, consisting of 169 cases and 169 controls who had undergone COVID-19 PCR testing in March 2021 in the West Bank, stratified according to their test results. A self-administered questionnaire in Arabic was used, which included the following parts: socio-demographic data, smoking status, seasonal flu, medical history of COVID-19, and the experience of COVID-19 cases. Both descriptive and analytical analyses were carried out. Binary logistic regression (Enter model) was used in the multivariate analysis to demonstrate the odds ratio.
Results: The study included 338 participants (169 cases and 169 controls) with a 95% response rate. Among the participants, 46.4% lived in the northern region (Nablus, Jenin, Qalqilya, Salfit, Tubas, Tulkarm). Blood group B was found to be more protective against COVID-19 than blood group A (AOR=0.40, CI=0.223-0.718). Blood group AB was also more protective against COVID-19 than blood group A (P < 0.05, AOR=0.316, CI=0.143-0.698). There was no statistically significant difference between blood group A and blood group O concerning the severity of symptoms or the composite outcomes of COVID-19.
Conclusion: There is an association between the ABO blood group and the risk of COVID-19. Nonetheless, the precise mechanism and severity of the effect vary, necessitating further investigation through larger and more intensively controlled studies.
Metamorphoses: the relationship between banking and economic modernisation in post-World War II France
Authors: Kovács György , Bartók László
Published: June 2024

After World War II, France’s economic growth was the strongest in its history and the country broke out from the trap of middle-income countries. The “thirty glorious years” was accompanied by the modernization of the economy, in which a strong state control banking system, called the goal-oriented banking system, played a significant role. Through the transformation of the French banking system after World War II, we prove that in the case of a middle-income country, the deepening of the financial intermediary system promotes the modernization of the economy. On the other hand, after a while the too strong state regulation on the banking system will become a limitation because the financial system cannot fulfill its task of economic modernization, as state intervention will limit the deepening of financial intermediation and thus the further modernization of the economy. Finally, we will also examine whether the actors of the financed industries become “lazier” due to the active state intervention in the lending policy, which brings with it the issue of moral hazard.

Published: June 2024

Introduction: Working conditions pose high risks of occupational diseases for employees of over 60 specialties engaged in pyrometallurgical refining of nickel.
Objective: To study common and distinctive features of occupational diseases in workers of various specialties involved in pyrometallurgical nickel processing.
Materials and methods: We have analyzed data on working conditions and health in a cohort of 1,429 workers of the pyrometallurgical nickel refining shop. The study was conducted retrospectively with start and end points in the years 2007 and 2021. At the first stage, we focused on working conditions and occupational diseases in pyrometallurgical nickel refining workers and at the second stage – specifically on workers of 13 specialties, in whom at least five occupational diseases were diagnosed. Microsoft Excel 2016 and Epi Info, v. 6.04d, were used for data analysis.
Results: Working conditions in pyrometallurgical nickel production fall within hazard classes 3.2–4. Fibrogenic aerosols containing respirable particles of nickel compounds are the main occupational risk factor. In 2008–2021, 300 cases of occupational diseases (mainly of the respiratory and musculoskeletal systems) were diagnosed in 129 of 1,429 workers (9.0 %). Occupational diseases were detected in 0.23 to 1.60 % of the workers annually. The highest number of occupational diseases was registered in smelters (n = 80), crane operators (n = 50), and repairmen (n = 21). Occupational multimorbidity (2 to 6 diseases) was observed in 91 (70.5 %) workers. We established a significant variance in incidence rates between the metallurgists of different specialties ranging from 56.8 cases per 10,000 workers in electricians to 464.3 in metal pourers. Musculoskeletal diseases prevailed in the latter (61.5 %), while respiratory diseases were more common in other core personnel (47.4–80.0 %). Sensorineural hearing loss was a more frequent finding in electricians (41.7 %).
Conclusion: Knowledge of the features of development and clinical manifestations of occupational diseases in workers of various specialties engaged in pyrometallurgical nickel refining can help differentiate methods of their prevention.

Authors: Dukhnovsky Sergey , Borodavko Leonid , Silkin Nikolay
Published: June 2024

Introduction. Intragroup relations in service teams, on the one hand, can increase “work tiredness” caused by the tension of activity, lead to an employee’s fatigue. But fatigue as a manifestation of the tonic state of risk affects not only the quality of solving service tasks, but also the intragroup relations in the service team. The aim of the research is to study the peculiarities of intragroup relations in the service team, their interrelation and differences among internal affairs bodies’ employees with different levels of fatigue. Research methods. The respondents were 150 employees of internal affairs bodies with service experience from 7 to 10 years. A set of the authors’ psychodiagnostic questionnaires was used: “Subjective assessment of intragroup relations” (S. V. Dukhnovsky, K. V. Zlokazov) and “Subjective assessment of personality fatigue level” (S. V. Dukhnovsky, E. K. Shelepina). Results. The authors revealed that an employee’s fatigue is interrelated with positive (emotional closeness, professional self-relationship) and negative (tension, conflict, aggressiveness, sensual tone) parameters of intragroup relations in the service team. The authors established that functional-positive parameters of intragroup relations prevail over functional-negative ones among the respondents with a moderate level of fatigue. The employees with an increased level of fatigue have functional-negative characteristics dominating over positive ones. The authors show that with increasing fatigue the subjects are less concerned about the relations in the service team. Features of intragroup relations in the service team can be risk factors for the development and strengthening of an employee’s fatigue. Assessment of the level of fatigue makes it possible to evaluate how relations in the service team are perceived from the point of view of the expression of their functional positive and negative characteristics.

Authors: Lapova Evgeniya
Published: June 2024

Introduction. The article is devoted to issues related to the participation of internal affairs agencies in the formation of the legal culture of society at different historical stages. The activities of the internal affairs bodies have a significant impact on the legal awareness of the population, forming the attitude of citizens to the legal provisions, law, and state power by various means, including through the analysis and implementation of the state information policy in the sphere of internal affairs. In order to purposefully influence on the legal culture of society and law enforcement officers, in 1983 a special unit was created in the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the USSR – the public relations service, the prerequisites for the formation of this service began to form when the Russian police was established. A historiographical analysis of the problems of the formation and development of public relations services of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia indicates the availability of scientific papers covering certain aspects of information support for the Ministry’s activities. But a comprehensive study of the history of the public relations service and departments for interaction with civil society institutions and the media of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, the definition of the main stages of their formation and development has not yet been carried out. Methods. Dialectics, acting as a general methodology of scientific knowledge, made it possible to base the research on the principles of comprehensive study of legal processes and phenomena, unity of theory and practice. The main methodological approaches of the study were a systematic and value-based practice. Methods of content analysis, periodisation, integrity, as well as other general scientific and special methods of legal research are involved. A broad approach has been applied to characterize the stages of formation and development of the public relations service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, involving consideration of its history not only in the period after their official registration (1983), but also during the formation of ideological, organizational and legal prerequisites for the creation of a special service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. Results. The Public Relations Service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia is characterized as a comprehensive system education. The legally significant processes related to the formation of ideological, organisational and legal prerequisites for their creation in the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia are considered.

Confused or Deliberative: Narratives About the Birth of Islam in Polish History Textbooks
Authors: Górak-Sosnowska Katarzyna
Published: June 2024

Objectives of the research: The aim of the article was to identify and analyse problematic areas related to how early Islam is presented and narrated in history textbooks, taking into account the local context.
Research methods: The data corpus consists of 12 history textbooks. The mixed methods approach applied in the study included cluster analysis and discourse analysis.
A brief description of the context of the issue: Islam and Muslims occupy limited space in the Polish school curricula, yet there is a plethora of information about the Islamic world in the public discourse. This puts a tremendous challenge on the shoulders of teachers and textbook authors to accurately present information about Islam and Muslims in schools.
Research findings: Three problematic areas were discovered and analysed: (a) narrating Islam from a mainstream, non-Muslim perspective, which in the Polish case might be skewed into presenting Islam through the lens of Catholicism; (b) navigating between historical accounts and legends whilst presenting early Islam; and (c) explaining past events by interpreting them through contemporary events.
Conclusions and recommendations: The article concludes by indicating challenges of teaching different religions in a largely mono-religious school setting, from the perspective of the classroom majority and Muslim students. Due to the marginal presence of Muslims in the public sphere, these narratives call for a more balanced approach. Otherwise, they can only further alienate and otherise Muslim students in the classrooms – and Islam in mainstream society.
Selected Factors Determining the Adaptability of the Gdańsk School Under Sails Participants and Their Temperamental Correlates
Authors: Romaniuk Miłosz Wawrzyniec , Niewiarowski Jakub
Published: June 2024

Research objectives and problems: The purpose of the study was to test the impact of a high seas cruise on a traditional sailing ship, during which sail training is implemented, on selected characteristics of the participants. It was thought that significant, positive changes would emerge in terms of decision-making, perception of the future, resistance to change, and proactivity – and that these changes would be related to temperament.
Research methods: Using the General Decision Making Style instrument, the Consideration of Future Consequences Scale, the Resistance to Change Scale, and the Proactivity Scale, a questionnaire with repeated measurement was administered to two groups of adolescents taking part in a sea cruise (Group 1: 14-day cruise, 11 boys, 8 girls, M age=17.1; Group 2: 7-day cruise, 13 boys, 7 girls, M age = 21.9). Measurements were taken on the first and last day of the cruise and one month after the cruise. Multilevel modeling was used to examine how temperament moderates changes in decision-making style, consideration of future consequences, resistance to change, and level of proactivity.
Structure of the article: The text provides information on sail training, including the historical context, previous research, and impact on youths’ development. The role of temperament in shaping behavior and its relevance to sail training are introduced. The theoretical constructs investigated, and the tools used in the research are described. The research objectives are stated and the sample and procedure are explained. The results are presented and discussed. Limitations and conclusions are indicated.
Research findings and their impact: Emotional reactivity significantly moderated the increase in dependent and avoidant decision-making styles and short-term focus, while it decreased cognitive rigidity and proactivity. Activity counteracted growth in avoidant decision-making style, reduced resistance to change, routine seeking, and emotional reactivity to change, lowered short-term focus, and supported growth in proactivity. Resilience counteracted the positive development of proactivity.
Conclusions and recommendations: Temperament traits can be mediators of change in terms of the constructs discussed herein. The results allow us to look at sail training from a new perspective, though further research on a regular School Under Sails and aboard other sailing ships is needed to formulate indisputable conclusions.

Published: June 2024

A rotulação de grafos é um dos tópicos de pesquisa em Teoria de Grafos que associa um elemento do grafo, como vértices ou arestas, a números inteiros denominados rótulos. Existem muitos trabalhos na literatura que investigam problemas relacionados a esse tópico. Dado um grafo conexo G = (V, E) com ao menos três vértices, uma rotulação antimágica local é uma bijeção f: E -> {1, 2, ..., |E|} que induz, naturalmente, uma rotulação de vértices em G, de modo que vértices adjacentes não admitem o mesmo rótulo. A menor quantidade de rótulos de vértices, induzidos por todas as rotulações antimágicas locais de G, denomina-se número cromático antimágico local de G e, desde 2017, tal parâmetro tem recebido muita atenção dos pesquisadores. Neste artigo, construímos rotulações antimágicas locais para os grafos pertencentes à classe dos grafos firefly e fornecemos expressões que exibem o número cromático antimágico local para todos os grafos nessa classe.

Influence of Reducing the Load Level of Mission Profiles on the Remaining Useful Life of a TO220 Analyzed with a Surrogate Model
Authors: Horn Tobias Daniel , Albrecht Jan , Rzepka Sven
Published: June 2024

A methodology for replacing finite element simulations with a fast-calculating surrogate model for fault tolerance in operating systems is presented. The study focuses on the TO220 rectifier system and explores methods to detect impending failures and calculate the resulting necessary load reduction. The finite element simulation model is described, highlighting the die attach as the relevant connection for failure. A surrogate model is developed using long-short-term-memory models to predict temperature and in-elastic strain. The surrogate model significantly reduces simulation time, allowing for the adjustment of load based on the system's current state of health. The rainflow counting algorithm is applied to calculate the number of cycles to failure, and the Palmgren-Miner linear damage accumulation relation is used to determine the damage and state-of-health. The dependency of the change in lifetime due to variations in scaling factor is evaluated and the results show that load reduction increases the lifetime of the system.

Published: June 2024

Batteries are a key enabling technology for the decarbonization of transport and energy sectors. The safe and reliable operation of batteries is crucial for battery-powered systems. In this direction, the development of accurate and robust battery state-of-health prognostics models can unlock the potential of autonomous systems for complex, remote and reliable operations. The combination of Neural Networks, Bayesian modelling concepts and ensemble learning strategies, form a valuable prognostics framework to combine uncertainty in a robust and accurate manner. Accordingly, this paper introduces a Bayesian ensemble learning approach to predict the capacity depletion of lithium-ion batteries. The approach accurately predicts the capacity fade and quantifies the uncertainty associated with battery design and degradation processes. The proposed Bayesian ensemble methodology employs a stacking technique, integrating multiple Bayesian neural networks (BNNs) as base learners, which have been trained on data diversity. The proposed method has been validated using a battery aging dataset collected by the NASA Ames Prognostics Center of Excellence. Obtained results demonstrate the improved accuracy and robustness of the proposed probabilistic fusion approach with respect to (i) a single BNN model and (ii) a classical stacking strategy based on differentBNNs.
Virtual Sensor for Real-Time Bearing Load Prediction Using Heterogeneous Temporal Graph Neural Networks

Published: June 2024

Accurate bearing load monitoring is essential for their Prognostics and Health Management (PHM), enabling damage assessment, wear prediction, and proactive maintenance. While bearing sensors are typically placed on the bearing housing, direct load monitoring requires sensors inside the bearing itself. Recently introduced sensor rollers enable direct bearing load monitoring but are constrained by their battery life. Data-driven virtual sensors can learn from sensor roller data collected during a battery's lifetime to map operating conditions to bearing loads.Although spatially distributed bearing sensors offer insights into load distribution (e.g., correlating temperature with load), traditional machine learning algorithms struggle to fully exploit these spatial-temporal dependencies. To address this gap, we introduce a graph-based virtual sensor that leverages Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) to analyze spatial-temporal dependencies among sensor signals, mapping existing measurements (temperature, vibration) to bearing loads. Since temperature and vibration signals exhibit vastly different dynamics, we propose Heterogeneous Temporal Graph Neural Networks (HTGNN), which explicitly models these signal types and their interactions for effective load prediction. Our results demonstrate that HTGNN outperforms Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), which struggle to capture both spatial and heterogeneous signal characteristics. These findings highlight the importance of capturing the complex spatial interactions between temperature, vibration, and load.

Published: June 2024

The maintenance paradigm based on PHM (Prognostics and Health Management) technology, utilizing big data to predict process conditions through manufacturing intelligence, is rising. However, in most industries, there is lack of accurate labeling of sensor data, posing challenges in data utilization due to the significant cost of labeling tasks. Consequently, recent research has focused on semi-supervised learning methodologies, which are applicable in label-absent scenarios. Especially, there is a growing emphasis on semi-supervised autoencoder, which learns both labeled and unlabeled data simultaneously. Also, there is a demand for the development of fault diagnosis models for essential components, such as bearings in most mechanical systems. Vibrational data is actively being integrated with artificial intelligence for application in bearing fault diagnosis frameworks. Nonetheless, diagnosing the condition of bearings inside machine systems, especially within the machine tool spindle, remains challenging, as the labeling of collected data causes significant costs. Therefore, this paper aims to develop a fault diagnosis model for unlabeled bearings in machine tool spindle using a semi-supervised autoencoder. Initially, a monitoring system of bearing simulator that imitates a machine tool spindle bearing was constructed, and vibration signals from both normal and fault bearings were collected based on this system. Subsequently, a semi-supervised autoencoder model was developed to construct a fault diagnosis model using labeled simulator data and unlabeled machine tool spindle bearing data. To evaluate the model, additional data of normal and fault bearings in machine tool spindle were collected, and the performance of the model was compared with a conventional fault diagnosis model based on 1D-CNN.
Fault Prediction and Estimation of Automotive LiDAR Signals Using Transfer Learning-Based Domain Generalization

Published: June 2024

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) are undergoing level 4 technology development and should have a system that can be operated without driver’s intervention, so that it must be possible to diagnose failures and predict life cycle themselves. In this study, we propose a technology to estimate signal changes and sensor faults through transfer learning-based domain generalization (TLDG) using limited actual vehicle test information from LiDAR for autonomous vehicles. Because autonomous vehicles operate in various climate/weather conditions over the world, their mechanical, electrical and electronic components must also have stable performance in all environmental conditions. However, an electronic device, especially laser diode (LD), which is one of core components of LiDAR, shows various degradation aspects depending on environmental conditions. We acquired multivariate LiDAR performance data under various environmental conditions through an actual vehicle test driving of about 2,000 km in summer and winter, and based on this, we create the LiDAR fault diagnosis and performance prediction model generalized to the domain under various environmental conditions. Fault prediction and estimation model created through summer and winter data in the environment domain will also adapt to other environmental conditions such as spring and fall. To develop highly accurate performance estimation models under various environmental conditions based on limited data, it is very important to extract correlations and characteristics between data, including environmental conditions. We employ the data augmentation techniques to solve the problem of lack of training data and apply bi-directional Bayesian transfer learning to generalize data and models under uncertainty. To prove the effectiveness of the present study, the data from actual vehicle tests conducted at different temperatures will be divided into train data and test data, and the validity of the generalized degradation performance estimation model will be statistically validated. The proposed domain generalization method, i.e., TLDG can be utilized to estimate signal changes and sensor faults in LiDAR under unexperienced environmental conditions such as weather changes, and even freezing and hot regions.
