Laimės ekonomikos nuostatų sklaida Lietuvos visuomenėje
Authors: Navaitis Gediminas , Gaidys Vladas
Published: November 2024

XX a. pabaigoje – XXI a. pradžioje pradėjo formuotis laimės ekonomikos ir jos principus realizuojančios felicitarinės (felicitas – lot. laimė) politikos kryptis, kuri kartais įvardijama kaip „laimės revoliucija“. Kadangi „revoliucijos“ nevyksta be savo šalininkų, aktualus klausimas: „Ar Lietuvos visuomenė susipažinusi su šiomis idėjomis ir kokiu mastu jas palaiko?“ Ieškant atsakymo į šį klausimą, 2016 m. atlikta reprezentatyvi Lietuvos gyventojų nuomonės apklausa. Iš viso apklausta 1 001 suaugęs žmogus (18 metų ir vyresni).Apklausa parodė, kad apie laimės ekonomiką yra girdėję / skaitę 11,0 % respondentų. Šiai „žinančiųjų“ grupei dažniau priklausė jaunesnio amžiaus, aukštesnio išsilavinimo, gaunantys didesnes pajamas žmonės. Nepaisant sąlyginai žemo laimės ekonomikos žinomumo, esminiam jos teiginiui – svarbiausiu Lietuvos valstybės tikslu turi tapti Lietuvos gyventojų laimė – pritarė absoliuti dauguma respondentų (81,1 %). Analogiški rezultatai gauti atliekant kokybinius laimės ekonomikos nuostatų tyrimus ir žvalgybines apklausas Lietuvoje bei Latvijoje.

Baiturrahman Mosque is a PKM partner that facilitates the implementation of sacrifices which have been carried out for approximately 25 years. In this PKM activity, the team brought up a big topic, namely good and healthy management of sacrificial animals. To support this topic, researchers evaluated the implementation of internal control over the receipt of sacrificial funds and the purchase of sacrificial animals at the Baiturrahman Mosque using a qualitative descriptive implementation method. In carrying out the evaluation, researchers collected data by means of observation and interviews. Primary data in the form of internal control of receiving sacrificial funds and internal control of purchasing sacrificial animals was obtained through questions and answers with Mr. Ajat, Mr. Sugeng, and Mr. Sarkum as chairman and members of the Baiturrahman Mosque's sacrificial committee. Based on the data collected, researchers found that the implementation of internal control in the implementation of sacrificial worship activities at the Baiturrahman Mosque in 2024 still needs to be optimized because it has not considered/controlled the following things: 1. Organizational structure that has not been well documented, 2. Evidence of receipt of sacrificial funds and purchase of sacrificial animals, the serial number is still written manually and has not been printed, 3. The sacrificial fund account is not yet separate from the mosque fund account, 4. Bank reconciliation has not been carried out considering that funds are also received by transfer, 5. There is no rotation of both buyers and suppliers of sacrificial animals

Published: November 2024

Sexual violence against animals is a problem that must be approached with determination and professionalism, since it represents a risk not only for animals but also for society. Also, it is necessary to have legal measures for its prevention and punishment.
In this context, both zoophilia and bestiality have existed since ancient times, with different historical perceptions, but it is important to distinguish both concepts. In any case, sexual aggression towards animals represents an eroticization of violence and the position of power, which can lead in some cases to necrophilic tendencies, obtaining pleasure from killing the animal. Various studies demonstrate a relationship between sexual abuse injuries in animals and humans, with findings such as trauma, penetration and mutilation.
In any case, veterinarians play a crucial role in detecting, collecting evidence, performing analysis and reporting these situations, although they often face difficult scenes. Despite this, their role in effectively addressing cases of sexual abuse is essential.

La violencia sexual hacia los animales supone un problema que debe abordarse con determinación y profesionalidad, ya que representa un riesgo no solo para los animales sino también para el conjunto de la sociedad, por lo que es necesario tener medidas legales para su prevención y castigo.
En este contexto, tanto la zoofilia como el bestialismo han existido desde la antigüedad, con distintas percepciones históricas, pero siendo importante distinguir ambos conceptos. En todo caso, la agresión sexual hacia animales supone una erotización de la violencia y de la posición de poder, pudiendo desembocar en algunos casos en tendencias necrofílicas, obteniendo el placer al matar al animal. Diversos estudios demuestran una relación entre las lesiones por abuso sexual en animales y en humanos, con hallazgos tales como traumatismos, penetraciones y mutilaciones.
En todo caso, los veterinarios cumplen un papel crucial en la detección, recogida de pruebas, realización de analíticas y denuncia de estas situaciones, aunque a menudo se enfrentan a escenas difíciles. A pesar de ello, es esencial su papel para abordar de manera efectiva los casos de abuso sexual.

Assessment of Supervised Machine Learning Techniques for Predicting Groundwater Availability in Mexican Aquifers
Authors: González Sánchez Alberto , Ontiveros Capurata Ronald Ernesto
Published: November 2024

Groundwater overexploitation is a global problem. In Mexico, 653 aquifers provide 39.1% of water for consumptive use. The National Water Commission manages this resource, but predicting aquifer availability is challenging, and the number of aquifers in deficit has increased. Physical models can address this issue but require extensive resources, whereas supervised learning algorithms offer a less resource-demanding alternative. This study evaluates four machine learning techniques for groundwater availability prediction: support vector machine regression, M5' model trees, random forests (RFR), and artificial neural networks. The models were trained using climatological, land use, and concession data from 1997 to 2015 and tested with data from 2018 and 2020. Random forests performed the best, showing a high correlation coefficient and low RMSE errors. The prediction accuracy for the availability state was 81.24% for 2018 and 76.79% for 2020. Thus, RFR can effectively predict short-term water availability, aiding sustainable aquifer management.

Published: November 2024

In the context of Mexico, comprehensive studies on the public communication of science (PCS) through social networks remain an unaddressed area of research. To address this gap, the present work is conducted from the perspective of natural language processing (NLP). The objective of this study is to develop and evaluate an automatic multilabel topic classification system for PCS tweets published in Mexico. This is achieved by training various machine learning models, which include traditional algorithms and transformer-based models. Utilizing a manually labeled corpus that identifies eighteen distinct areas or themes of science, the study evaluates and compares several approaches for the automatic identification and classification of thematic areas within PCS tweets. The findings indicate that transformer-based models, such as XLM-RoBERTa, demonstrate superior performance compared to classic algorithms, while the emerging LLM models, such as BLOOM, present a promising alternative for a range of NLP tasks.

Mount Ruang, located in Sitaro district, North Sulawesi, erupted again on March 30, 2024. The impact of disasters is not only physical, so social-psychological aspects are now beginning to receive attention in overall disaster management. Volcanic eruptions produce harmful effects on the environment, climate, and health of exposed people, and are associated with a decline in social and economic conditions. The objectives of this service activity are to provide assistance to the community in the form of play activities as a trauma healing method for children after the eruption of Mount Ruang in Sitaro Regency, and how this approach can be effectively implemented in the context of local communities. Through this activity, children can express their feelings, rebuild their confidence, and reduce the anxiety they experience. In addition, support from parents and the community is needed to create a safe and supportive environment for children's recovery. By understanding the psychological impact of disasters and involving all parties in the recovery process, we can help children to not only recover from trauma, but also grow into stronger and more resilient individuals. Therefore, it is important to continue developing trauma healing programs that involve play activities and active participation from parents and communities.

Authors: Zahra Nur Amalia , Koimah Siti Mariyatul , Robian Abi
Published: November 2024

This study examines the rejection of the relocation policy stipulated in PERBUP Kabupaten Tangerang No. 60 of 2016 by traders in the Cisoka District. Findings indicate that the majority of traders oppose the policy due to the prohibition of street vendors (PKL) in the new market and the imposition of fees for public access. This situation significantly impacts the traders' income, potentially lowering their standard of living. The rejection reflects human rights issues, specifically the traders' right to work and earn a decent living. Dissatisfaction arises from a policy that lacks support and imposes access fees on the public. The study emphasizes the importance of involving traders in the formulation of policies affecting their livelihoods. The government is urged to review the relocation policy to be more inclusive and consider the aspirations and needs of the community. Overall, this research provides insights into the negative impacts of relocation policies that do not take into account the needs and rights of traders, highlighting the necessity of a fairer and more sustainable approach in policy-making to support the overall welfare of the community.

Authors: SECK Mame Cheikh
Published: November 2024

SummaryIntroduction: Toxoplasmosis infection is not transmitted from human to human, except in the case of transmission from mother to fetus, blood transfusion, or transplantation of an infected organ. The aim of this study was to compare the seroprevalence of toxoplasmosis in blood donors and patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) treated at the Ouakam Military Hospital (HMO). Methodology: We conducted a cross-sectional study between September and December 2022 among CRF patients followed up at the HMO and blood donors. A questionnaire was administered to collect socio-demographic information. A blood sample was then taken. Toxoplasma gondii IgG and IgM antibodies were tested by chemiluminescence. Data were analyzed using Epi Info 7.2.5.0 software. Results: A total of 200 participants were enrolled, including 100 volunteer blood donors and 100 hemodialysis patients. The mean ages were 30.7 ± 10 years and 41.4 ± 14.6 years for blood donors and CRF patients respectively. The overall seroprevalence of toxoplasmosis in blood donors was 33%, whereas it was 38% in CRF patients. IgM antibody positivity was noted in only one patient. Seroprevalence of toxoplasmosis in blood donors was highest in the 31-44 age group, at 37.5%, while in CRF patients it was highest in the over-45 age group, at 45.2%. According to the notion of contact with a cat, it was higher in hemodialysis patients who had been in contact with a cat, with a rate of 57.9% (p=0.047), in contrast to blood donors, where the highest rate was recorded in subjects who had not been in contact with a cat. Conclusion: This study revealed that the seroprevalence of toxoplasmosis was higher in CRF patients than in blood donors, with a seroprevalence rate higher than those previously reported in Dakar in pregnant women.

Published: November 2024

The purpose of this study was to develop autonomous artificial intelligence agents capable of working as a cohesive group to solve intricate decision-making processes, ultimately pushing the boundaries of artificial intelligence’s applicability in high-stakes and real-world scenarios. An autonomous multi-agent model was designed and deployed using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) decision-making framework, with autonomous AI agents, such as CrewAI and AutoGen, orchestrating multiple stages of activities performed by four distinct agents leveraging generative AI (GenAI). These agents were applied to a use case for proof of concept. The agents used a qualitative dataset to generate management recommendations based on cost and market feasibility considerations. The model was tested with publicly available customer feedback data on oatmeal cookies. It synthesized 913 customer reviews, identified common complaints, provided a summary of potential solutions, and generated a summary of market opportunities, along with relevant challenges. Although a subject matter expert's review is necessary to evaluate the practicality and relevance of the recommendations, the results demonstrated the high potential of multi-agent models in synthesizing and distilling large datasets into actionable insights, thereby augmenting decision-making processes in business contexts. The model's modular design allows for enhancements in quality, accuracy, and practicality by incorporating additional datasets and new agents. This study underscores that the integration of GenAI within a multi-agent model empowers businesses to swiftly transform vast amounts of business intelligence data into practical recommendations.

Published: November 2024

The present study focuses on a socio-pragmatic perspective within Discourse Analysis. Grounded in the theoretical frameworks of Grice’s Cooperative Principles (1975), Conversational Implicatures (Levinson, 1983, 2000), and Politeness Principles (Levinson, 1978; Leech, 1983), it examines five selected excerpts from Adichie’s Half of a Yellow Sun to illuminate the varying strategies through which interlocutors navigate language according to shifting conversational contexts. Following a systematic corpus selection process, the quantitative analysis and interpretation of findings reveal how characters work cooperatively to achieve mutual understanding within conversations, often generating different implicatures. The findings suggest that an utterance’s conversational significance is shaped entirely by its specific context of use. Consequently, this study underscores the essential recommendation that, for effective communication, conversational participants must attentively utilize contextual cues to construct and interpret utterances’ ad hoc conversational values, thereby fostering mutual understanding and common ground.

Effectiveness of thrombolytic therapy in patients with severe COVID-19 and pulmonary embolism
Authors: Oliinyk Oleksandr
Published: November 2024

Current research provides insufficient data on the use of thrombolytic therapy in the treatment of pulmonary embolism in patients with COVID-19. Existing studies present data on the efficacy of thrombolytic drug therapy for thrombotic complications in severe COVID-19. However, these studies either involve a very small number of observations or remain incomplete. This article aimed to assess systemic thrombolysis’s effectiveness in intravenous alteplase administration in this pathology. The medical records of 92 patients were analysed. Patients were divided into four groups depending on the therapy administered. Patients in the first group had complications in the form of pulmonary embolism but did not require thrombolytic therapy. Treatment of patients in the first group consisted of prescribing low-molecular-weight heparin at a therapeutic dose. Patients in the second and third groups had pulmonary embolism in the context of COVID-19 and required thrombolytic therapy. The third group differed from the second in the presence of a thrombus in the right heart. Patients in the fourth group had complications in the form of pulmonary embolism, and required thrombolytic therapy, but did not receive it due to a lack of funds. Patients in the second and third groups were immediately treated with unfractionated heparin and alteplase. Thrombolysis was not performed in the fourth group. Mortality rates were studied according to the assigned group. It was established that the risk of death increased (p<0.001) with increasing levels of D-dimer and decreased with increasing PaO2/FiO2 (p < 0.001). In the presence of a thrombus in the right heart chambers, the risk of death increased (p = 0.002), OR = 3.97 (95% CI 1.66-9.49). A trend towards reducing death risk with thrombolytic therapy was observed (p = 0.052). Data were summarised regarding the increased (p = 0.009) risk of death when thrombolytic therapy was delayed. Mortality in the fourth group was 100%. The obtained data indicate the significant effectiveness of thrombolytic therapy in the treatment of this pathology

: O artigo tem como objetivo analisar a transmissão mortis causa de criptomoedas no Brasil, abordando os desafios e as possibilidades para garantir a sucessão hereditária desse patrimônio digital. A pesquisa levanta questões sobre como assegurar a transmissão de criptomoedas aos herdeiros, se isso pode ocorrer dentro das regras da sucessão legítima ou se é necessário que o titular faça disposições testamentárias. O estudo visa entender o que são criptomoedas, como são armazenados e quais caminhos podem ser seguidos para garantir sua transferência após a morte do titular. A metodologia utilizada foi predominantemente hipotético-dedutiva, com uma pesquisa bibliográfica que incluiu uma revisão sistemática da doutrina sobre bens digitais, transmissão de criptomoedas e as regras sucessórias vigentes no Brasil. As conclusões apontam que, apesar de o patrimônio digital dever ser transmitido aos herdeiros após a morte, o acesso às criptomoedas representa uma barreira significativa. Caso o falecido não deixe informações sobre a localização dos ativos e as senhas de acesso, os herdeiros podem saber da existência desses bens, mas não poderão acessá-los, nem com intervenção judicial, já que as senhas não podem ser quebradas por decisão judicial. Assim, conclui-se que, embora não seja necessária a elaboração de um testamento para dividir esses ativos, é fundamental que as senhas sejam confiadas a uma pessoa para que a transmissão hereditária possa ocorrer efetivamente.
O PRIMADO DO DIREITO DA UNIÃO EUROPEIA E O DÉCIMO SEGUNDO PROCESSO DE REVISÃO DA CONSTITUIÇÂO DA REPÚBLICA PORTUGUESA DE 1976
Authors: Simões Barata Mário , Lucas Eugénio
Published: November 2024

O texto aborda a relação entre o Acórdão nº422/20 do Tribunal Constitucional e o décimo segundo processo de revisão constitucional que foi despoletado pelo Partido CHEGA em Outubro de 2022 e que não foi concluído em virtude da dissolução da Assembleia da República em janeiro de 2024. Para tanto, explica sumariamente o litígio entre um exportador de vinho e uma instituição pública envolvendo a prestação de garantias bancárias que acabou na interposição de um recurso para o Tribunal Constitucional alegando a não conformidade do direito comunitário com o artigo 13.º da lei fundamental. De seguida, apresenta a fundamentação mobilizada pelo Tribunal Constitucional para decidir o caso, designadamente a extensão do princípio do primado do Direito da União Europeia. O artigo aborda ainda uma proposta de revisão constitucional destinada a eliminar a norma constitucional que esteve na origem da decisão, nomeadamente o Artigo 8º, nº 4, da Constituição da República Portuguesa, bem como o impacto da participação de Portugal na União Europeia e a necessidade de rever a lei fundamental em função da mesma, assim como da própria evolução da União. Tal é visível nas revisões constitucionais de 1989, 1992, 1997, 2001, 2004 e 2005. Por fim, o texto aborda a probabilidade de sucesso da revisão da norma que regula as consequências jurídicas decorrentes da adesão de Portugal à UE.
LITIGIOS AMBIENTALES: EL DERECHO PROCESAL AL SERVICIO DEL DERECHO MATERIAL

Published: November 2024

O presente trabalho de pesquisa debruça-se sobre as características peculiares dos litígios ambientais e a consequente necessidade de que o processo civil se molde às particularidades do direito material que visa proteger. O objetivo central desta pesquisa sintetizou- se no estudo da caracterização dos litígios ambientais e das suas carências processuais decorrentes. Para a resolução da problemática central posta, utilizou-se de método dedutivo por meio de revisão bibliográfica sobre os temas abordados. Com isso, partiu-se de um apanhado histórico sobre o direito ambiental em âmbito internacional e descreveu-se o cenário atual do tema no direito brasileiro. Subsequentemente, caracterizaram-se os litígios ambientais com base na doutrina brasileira e levantaram-se as peculiaridades do direto material em questão que levadas à esfera processual necessitam de adaptação da jurisdição para seu pleno atendimento. Como resultado, verificou-se que cabe ao processo civil se amoldar às particularidades dos litígios ambientais de modo a atendê-los adequada, tempestiva e eficientemente e não intentar forçar estes conflitos no modelo tradicional do processo civil jurisdicional a fim de que seja o direito material em questão efetivamente tutelado.

Os dados pessoais representam um conjunto de informações que dizem respeito a uma determinada pessoa natural, permitindo a sua identificação. Com eles é possível, criar um perfil individual com suas preferências em diversos âmbitos, como hábitos de compras e de consumo, hobbies e até mesmo em questões íntimas, como relacionadas à situação de saúde e de opiniões políticas. Com o exponencial poder de processamento de informações realizados em âmbito virtual e a criação de imensos bancos de dados transnacionais, potencializado pelo avanço incomensurável da inteligência artificial, é necessário que se dirija atenção para uma efetiva regulamentação voltada à proteção de tais dados, visto que seu uso indiscriminado pode representar violação da privacidade, da igualdade e até mesmo da liberdade dos cidadãos. Partindo desses pressupostos basilares, um dos pontos de reflexão nessa temática é analisar o tratamento de dados pessoais nas relações laborais, ou seja, o que pode ser feito pela empresa com os dados de um trabalhador. Em tal escopo, destacam-se três momentos, a serem considerados: âmbito pré-contratual, contratual (deste a admissão até o término do vínculo) e pós-contratual. Como é analisado no artigo, em todos esses âmbitos podem ocorrer tratamento de dados, seja de forma lícita ou ilícita. Para regulamentar a temática, algumas normativas vêm sendo editadas, dentre as quais podem ser destacadas a Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (Lei Federal nº. 13.709/2018) no Brasil e o Regulamento Geral sobre a Proteção de Dados (Regulamento nº. 2016/679) na União Europeia. Nesse cenário, o presente trabalho tem por objetivo analisar esses e outros aspectos relativos à proteção de dados dos trabalhadores, comparando-a na legislação brasileira com a europeia, sendo que a primeira não tutela o tema de forma específica enquanto a segunda sim, inclusive permitindo uma proteção adicional pelas legislações dos Estados-Membros.
ATRIBUIÇÃO DE PERSONALIDADE JURÍDICA A SISTEMAS DE INTELIGÊNCIA ARTIFICIAL PARA FINS DE REPARAÇÃO DE DANO

Published: November 2024

A Inteligência Artificial é objeto de estudo autônomo desde a década de 50, mas atualmente sua pesquisa e utilização nos mais diversos setores tem ganho uma proporção nunca vista. O momento é propício, pois, devido a algumas décadas de informatização, o volume de dados digitais é enorme, e por outro lado, a capacidade dos hardwares foi desenvolvida a ponto de suportar, com eficiência, esses grandes bancos de dados. Presentes as condições ideais para que mais e mais produtos e serviços utilizando sistemas de Inteligência Artificial sejam disponibilizados às empresas, indústrias, poder público e à sociedade em geral, resta ao Direito fazer uma releitura de institutos clássicos, bem como suscitar novas premissas, que possam ser respostas às demandas atuais. Num mundo em constante transformação e de inovações tecnológicas surgindo a cada dia é natural que o Direito seja instado a oferecer proteção jurídica a novas situações. A presente pesquisa pretende analisar a necessidade de se atribuir personalidade jurídica aos sistemas autônomos de Inteligência Artificial, de forma que possam responder pelos seus próprios atos. Para tanto, utilizou-se o método dedutivo e pesquisa documental e bibliográfica. Primeiramente buscou-se um enquadramento doutrinário da Inteligência Artificial, destacando suas características e ressaltando a possibilidade de autonomia; analisou-se as dificuldades encontradas pelo Direito para garantir a responsabilidade civil pelos danos causados por sistemas autônomos de Inteligência Artificial; investigou-se os modelos de responsabilização vigentes; e por fim examinou-se os fundamentos que levariam à personificação desses sistemas. Os resultados obtidos não têm o condão de encerrar a discussão e nem de trazer uma solução ideal, uma vez que a velocidade das mudanças nessa era de revolução digital é impressionante. Sendo assim, foi possível constatar que, por ora, a atribuição de personalidade jurídica aos sistemas de Inteligência Artificial não é medida adequada para a garantia da responsabilização civil, sendo preferível a aplicação dos modelos já existentes, que a princípio são aptos para assegurar a reparação de danos eventualmente causados por sistemas inteligentes. Seguros obrigatórios e fundos de garantia ainda não se apresentam de forma satisfatória no Brasil, mas poderiam ser mecanismos eficientes e complementares na reparação dos danos. Por fim, é de se destacar a importância dos estudos nesta área e da pesquisa aplicada, pois o nível de autonomia dos sistemas inteligentes tende a aumentar e consequentemente gerar riscos em potencial, sendo plausível esperar uma resposta jurídica diferente do que hoje afirmamos ser recomendado.
