Authors: Alghamdi Suliman , Shaheen Rozina
Published: July 2024

The female labor force participation holds significant implications for various aspects of society, the economy, and individual lives. Understanding its significance involves recognizing the multifaceted impact of women’s participation in the workforce. In this context, the current study investigates the factors influencing the female labor force participation rate in Saudi Arabia while using a set of independent variables such as GDP growth, employment-to-population ratio, inflation, urban population growth, tertiary school enrollment, labor force with advanced education, fertility rate, and age dependency ratio, covering a period from 2000 to 2022. The results reveal that the employment-to-population ratio, inflation rate, urbanization, and age dependency ratio have positive and statistically significant impacts on the female labor force participation rate. This research offers valuable insights for formulating policies to foster female empowerment and overcome the obstacles that hinder their economic participation.
Evolução das teorias da posse e seu reconhecimento como instituto autônomo
Authors: Brantl Eva Marcela , Decomain Pedro Roberto
Published: July 2024

Os temas posse e propriedade acompanham o homem desde que este começou a estreitar suas relações com as coisas disponíveis no mundo que fossem úteis ao seu proveito, e nesta trajetória inúmeras discussões se instalaram desde a esfera teórica do pensamento, da conceituação, à fática com reflexos concretos na economia e principalmente na área social. Como problema de pesquisa, destaca-se o seguinte questionamento: De que forma ocorreu a evolução do conceito posse até seu reconhecimento como instituto autônomo da propriedade? Para tanto, o objetivo geral é analisar a trajetória evolutiva das teorias sobre a posse, tendo como premissa originária o fortalecimento da relação desta com o elemento função social chegando ao ponto do reconhecimento da posse como instituto autônomo. Sendo delineados os seguintes objetivos específicos: traçar um breve histórico do surgimento e reconhecimento da posse no Direito; mostrar a evolução conceitual da posse dentro do desenvolvimento teórico; apresentar o crescimento da influência do elemento função social no instituto da posse do contexto histórico até o seu reconhecimento como instituto autônomo. No que tange ao tipo de pesquisa tem-se que a presente é estudo de abordagem qualitativa, de natureza básica, de procedimentos bibliográficos e de objetivo exploratório. Como o direito vem a reboque da sociedade, o direito de propriedade passou de direito absoluto a direito relativizado pelo critério do exercício da função social dos bens em detrimento aos interesses puramente individuais com a Instituição do Estado Social de Direito, nessa toada ganha força e reconhecimento a posse, pois representa o exercício do suprimento de necessidades humanas básicas, da efetivação da cidadania e por conseguinte da dignidade humana. Portanto,  a teoria que substancia a proteção jurídica da posse encontra-se em transição, da teoria objetiva para a teoria sociológica da posse, reconhecendo este fortalecimento da posse, inclusive constitucionalmente.

ADDENDUM TO MARSH (2014): Pithecia hirsuta Spix, 1823 AND Pithecia inusta Spix, 1823 ARE SYNONYMS
Authors: SERRANO-VILLAVICENCIO José Eduardo , TERRA GARBINO Guilherme Siniciato
Published: July 2024

The Saki monkeys, genus Pithecia Desmarest, 1804, have undergone drastic taxonomic changes in a 2014 revision of the genus. In this revision, Pithecia hirsuta Spix, 1823 and P. inusta Spix, 1823 were considered as valid, although both species have been widely considered synonymous with P. monachus. Nonetheless, here we demonstrate, by reviewing the original descriptions of both species, that P. inusta cannot be applied to the Peruvian populations of Pithecia inhabiting primarily the Ucayali River watershed since the original concept of this species, as well as its type locality did not include its putative geographic range. In fact, the area falls completely outside the expedition's itinerary that collected the holotype. Thus, to preserve stability until further evidence is furnished, the above-mentioned Pithecia populations should be regarded as P. monachus.
Possibilities of surgical correction of complicated forms of chronic venous insufficiency in patients after coronavirus infection
Authors: Andozhskaia Yu. S. , Novikova A. S.
Published: July 2024

Introduction. COVID-19 causes generalized endothelitis and impaired arthriolo-venular circulation leading to a slowdown in blood flow and venous hypervolemia. This leads to decompensation of the drainage function of perforated veins and the occurrence of horizontal venous reflux. Aim. To determine the possibilities of surgical correction of decompensated forms of chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) in patients after COVID-19, when determining the localization of pathological venous reflux by ultrasound duplex scanning of the lower extremity veins. To determine the character of microcirculatorydisorders in the examined patients. Material and methods. Ultrasound duplex scanning with a 7.5-10 MHz linear sensor was performed in 59 patients aged 40-78 years, 34 women and 25 men who had suffered from COVID-19 in a moderate form that did not require hospitalization. Patients had not previously noted manifestations of CVI and did not use diosmin drugs. The reason for treatment was the manifestation of complicated forms of CVI, which first appeared after COVID-19. 39 patients of group I underwent surgical correction of horizontal venous reflux, 20 patients of group II received conservative treatment. The microcirculatory bed was examined using a high-frequency ultrasound Dopplerograph on the nail bed of the 1st finger of the upper limb with a 25 MHz sensor. Results. The revealed microcirculatory disorders were characterized by a depletion of the Doppler spectrum, which corresponds to parietal stasis. Isolated horizontal venous reflux was recorded in the area of trophic disorders: pigmentation, induration and trophic ulcers (TU) of the shin. In group I patients, as compared to group II, pain syndrome, edema, induration and inflammation significantly decreased after treatment when assessed by the VCSS scale. More rapid and complete healing of TU was observed. Conclusions. COVID-19 provokes accelerated progression of isolated horizontal venous reflux, due to generalized microcirculatory disorders reported in patients in the post-COVID period. The surgical intervention for its elimination in the nearest future after applying undoubtedly surpasses conservative methods of treatment and allows achieving a good cosmetic and clinical result.
Razones de equidad para privilegiar a los padres como beneficiarios de la pensión de sobrevivencia en circunstancias dependencia económica y debilidad manifiesta por afectación del mínimo vital en Colombia
Authors: Morales Quintero Lina María , Laverde Zuluaga Maria Antonia , García Aguirre Angee Paola
Published: July 2024

En Colombia el actual orden excluyente de los beneficiarios de la pensión de sobrevivientes se sustenta en el parentesco (consanguinidad, afinidad y civil) con independencia de criterios subjetivos como vejez, invalidez y pobreza. En contraste con la realidad social del país esta disposición normativa lesionaría gravemente el derecho constitucional del mínimo vital de los padres que dependían económicamente de su hijo causante, ya que a partir de su fallecimiento cesan los aportes de este, por lo que se produce una situación de debilidad manifiesta respecto a su subsistencia y la imposibilidad de concurrir con los hijos, cónyuges y/o compañero(a)s permanentes del causante, últimos categorizados legalmente como beneficiarios preferentes en la titularidad de la pensión de sobrevivientes respecto de los padres. Este artículo formula una iniciativa regulatoria que otorgue preferencia o concurrencia legal a los padres respecto de la cónyuge, la compañera permanente o los hijos del causante frente a la pensión de sobrevivencia, en aplicación del principio de equidad, el derecho a la dignidad humana y el mínimo vital, posibilidad concebida dentro de las normas especiales de la seguridad social de las fuerzas militares, en nuestro régimen interno.

Published: July 2024

De acuerdo con la ley colombiana, los docentes de instituciones públicas de educación Superior pueden ser de dedicación exclusiva, tiempo completo, medio tiempo, ocasionales o de cátedra; los tres primeros son considerados empleados públicos, mientras que la Corte Constitucional colombiana clasifica a los docentes ocasionales y de cátedra como servidores públicos sui generis. Sin embargo, ni la ley ni la jurisprudencia han determinado claramente a qué jurisdicción deben acudir cuando se presentan controversias entre estos últimos y las ies. A partir de la metodología cualitativa con un paradigma hermenéutico analítico y haciendo uso de fuentes doctrinarias y jurisprudenciales, este artículo responde a dicho cuestionamiento analizando la naturaleza de su relación laboral, régimen salarial y prestacional y su forma de vinculación en consideración de la teoría estatutaria y contractual y los criterios orgánico, formal y funcional.

Measurement and Modeling of Subscale Open-Return Unsteady Wind-Tunnel Behavior
Authors: Rivera-Irizarry Adrian , Rennie R. Mark
Published: July 2024

Unsteady-flow wind tunnels typically employ control louvers installed in the wind-tunnel circuit to produce rapid changes in the test-section flow velocity. For these wind tunnels, an open-return circuit is advantageous because of the lower mass of air that must be accelerated by the louver forcing. However, in addition to inertial effects, the wind-tunnel behavior is also affected by the interaction of the pressure disturbances from the louvers and their reflection from the open boundary conditions of the wind tunnel, resulting in a windspeed response that is nonintuitively related to the louver motion. In this paper, an experimental investigation into the unsteady behavior of a model-scale, open-return wind tunnel is described. An incompressible method of characteristics model for the wind tunnel is shown to successfully predict the wind-tunnel dynamic behavior, and an approach to produce controlled windspeed histories that compensates for the wind-tunnel response is demonstrated.
Linking Economic Diversification and Regional Investments in the Gulf: Saudi and Emirati Investment Trends in Egypt
Authors: KÜÇÜK ÖMER NAİM
Published: July 2024

This study investigates the link between the economic diversification policies and regional investment strategies of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, focusing on these countries’ investment trends in Egypt as a case study. It explores how these investments serve as instruments of economic statecraft for Saudi and Emirati leaders, designed to bolster diversification objectives and address political, economic, and environmental risks. The findings uncover a notable increase in Saudi and Emirati investment in Egypt since the early 2000s. These investments not only prioritize sectors highlighted in their diversification blueprints, such as real estate, finance, and tourism but also extend into agricultural and renewable energy sectors, offering avenues to mitigate climate and environmental challenges. Ultimately, the study concludes that while these regional investments may support domestic diversification endeavors and promote economic integration within the region, they are also underpinned by the geo-economic agendas of Saudi and Emirati leaders, aiming to hedge against political and economic uncertainties.
Public Opinion and Reaction to Israel’s War on Gaza after October 7 in Türkiye
Authors: UĞUR ZEYNEP BURCU , DEMİR ÖMER , DALMIŞ İBRAHİM
Published: July 2024

This article investigates the perception and the reaction of Turkish people to Israel’s war in Gaza. For this purpose, we utilized a survey involving 1,393 respondents. First, we documented that there is widespread support for Palestinians from both sides of the political spectrum, Second, 94 percent of people do not believe that Israel’s public statements about protecting civilians are true. Third, an overwhelming percentage of people also joined the economic boycott by not buying Israeli products. Although young voters are less likely to support the Palestinian cause, this relationship disappears once voting preferences are taken into account. This implies that voting preferences matter for understanding the support for Palestinian cause. Compared to those who do not vote or vote for parties with a small base, AK Party and MHP voters are relatively more likely to support and CHP and HDP voters are relatively less likely to support the Palestinian cause. Overall, these results show that there is a strong pro-Palestine sentiment in Türkiye, and companies that have business ties with Israel are going to be hurt economically by the ongoing war due to consumer boycotts.
Contested Spaces and Ethnocratic Policies: Navigating the Geopolitics of Heritage and Identity in Jerusalem
Authors: Isbilir A. Cihangir
Published: July 2024

This study explores the architectural and demographic dynamics of Jerusalem, examining public discourse to determine the presence of neo-colonial ethnic segregation and socio-spatial divisions. Furthermore, it aims to discern the underlying motivations influencing urban architecture and to identify challenges within Jerusalem’s demographic and architectural frameworks. Approach of the study encompasses an extensive review of academic publications, news articles, and both qualitative and quantitative data. The study includes documentation and archival research published in both international and national journals. Significant focus is placed on studies from global and regional organizations such as UNESCO, ICOMOS, the UN, IPCC, the EU, Friedrich Ebert Stiftung (FES), UNICEF in the State of Palestine, and various urban delineation and conservation projects by TİKA across the Jerusalem (al-Quds) metropolitan region. The paper critically assesses the city’s evolution into a space characterized by ethnonational divisions, heightened militarization, and increasing violence, which suggest a shift from an ‘ethnocracy’ to an ‘urban apartheid.’ Finally, this paper proposes transitioning from ‘ethnocracy’ to ‘democracy’ as a solution for achieving a truly modern and democratic Jerusalem metropolis.
The U.S. Recognition of Israeli Sovereignty over the Golan Heights: A Threat to International Peace
Authors: DARBAJ ALI KAMEL
Published: July 2024

This research shows that the U.S. recognition of Israel’s sovereignty over the Golan Heights is a radical shift in U.S. policy regarding the ownership of lands seized by military force since the Second World War. It is also considered a new and implicit abandonment by Washington of its commitment as a guarantor of the post-war international order. Moreover, this recognition will set a precedent for other countries to militarily seize any lands they claim are vital to their strategic security. Crucially, this recognition does not have any legal effect. It is null and void, with no international value or legitimacy, and is a clear violation of the provisions of international law and international treaties, agreements, covenants, and norms. It also threatens international peace and security and incites other countries to seize illegally the lands of their neighbors. Furthermore, it is contrary to all resolutions that have been issued in a legitimate manner, including those issued by the United Nations obligating Israel to return these lands. The Golan is legally recognized internationally as occupied Syrian territory before and after this recognition. Since the right to self-determination is linked to peoples and not to states, Israel cannot confiscate this right under the pretext that “the Syrian state has engaged in an aggressive war against its people.”
Navigating Humanitarian Aid in Syria: Challenges, Complexities, and Paths to Sustainable Solutions
Authors: BAROUD SAEED , KARSAVURAN ORHUN CEM , ATAR EMRAH
Published: July 2024

This study explores the role of foreign aid as a soft power tool by providing an understanding of the interrelation between foreign policy and aid. The study is based on interviews with aid experts. The findings of the study unambiguously demonstrate that aid and foreign policy are intertwined since, in most cases, foreign aid falls under the responsibility of foreign ministries. Besides the humanitarian imperative, the geopolitical account has a crucial importance in the decision-making process that cascades down from the general foreign policy agenda. In addition, the strategic interests of the donor country are contributing to the decision-making. The prominent themes are national security, tackling terrorism, preventing immigration influx, and economic goals. The study also demonstrates the extent to which aid can be politicized in its extreme form by focusing on Russian vetoes in the UN Security Council and the Syrian government’s weaponization of aid.
Atopic diseases and the risk of alopecia areata among pre-teens and teenagers in Taiwan
Authors: Lu Ying-Yi , Wu Ming-Kung , Lu Chun-Ching , Wang Wei-Ting , Wu Chieh-Hsin
Published: July 2024

Background

Alopecia areata (AA), a disorder of non-scarring hair loss with a variable relapsing and remitting course, is a common autoimmune disease in children. Although it often presents as several focal small patchy bald lesions, early onset AA can lead to a total loss of scalp hair, even body hairs, a severe subtype. Atopic diseases are common concurrent disorders in AA, especially among those with early onset severe type of hair loss. Whether atopic diseases increase the risk of AA in the paediatric population of Taiwan, remains unclear.

Objective

To identify if atopic diseases increase the risk of AA among pre-teens and teenagers in Taiwan.

Methods

From Taiwan National Health Insurance Database 2010, we used the claims data to clarify the risk of AA in pre-teens and teenagers with atopic diseases (atopic dermatitis, allergic conjunctivitis, asthma, allergic rhinitis and food allergy) as compared to the general population. Cox proportional hazards model yielded hazard ratios (HRs) to address the impact of atopic diseases, sex and age on AA risk after adjusting for covariates and subsequent stratified analyses.

Results

Overall, 21,070 children (10,535 patients with atopic diseases and 10,535 normal cohort) aged over nine years were recruited. During a follow-up of 15 years, 39 (0.37%) cases were identified to have AA in the atopic diseases group, while 11 (0.10%) had developed AA in the normal cohort. As compared with the normal population, the paediatric population with atopic diseases had a 9.66-fold higher risk of developing AA. The risk was greater for boys and increased with advanced age. In the atopic diseases group, pre-teens and teenagers with food allergies and Sjogren’s syndrome were more likely to have AA.

Limitations

Only one ethnic group.

Conclusion

All atopic diseases enhanced the risk of developing AA in Taiwan pre-teens and teenagers. Children with atopic diseases should be monitored to look for the development of AA.

Published: July 2024

The ability of bacillus subtilis transglutaminase (bTG) to functionalize BSA has been investigated using peptide mapping experiments. Interestingly, the conjugation was not detected on a glutamine but on an asparagine residue. A sequence determination study was further performed and a sequence of ten amino acids for site specific conjugation was identified. A monobody showing no native reactivity with the bTG enzyme was produced with the identified peptide sequences and successfully conjugated to various types of substrates in very high yields (>90 %) with a 1/1/1.5 ratio of protein/amine/enzyme. Direct conjugation to the amino linker of a small interfering RNA (siRNA) was achieved in good yield and no impact on the siRNA activity was observed following the conjugation. The identified sequences were further engineered in VHH and IgG scaffolds and successful conjugation could also be observed with both small molecules and siRNA, confirming the potential of bTG for site-specific enzymatic bioconjugation.
Molecular Simulation Methods of Evaporating Electrosprayed Droplets
Authors: Consta Styliani , Nguyen Han
Published: July 2024

Molecular simulations provide significant insights into the relationship between the release of a macromolecule from charged droplets and its charge state. These simulations also help determine the possible location of the charge in macroions detected by mass spectrometry. However, several significant challenges must be considered in the modeling process. These challenges include the effect of the droplet-size-dependent chemistry on the charge state of a macroion, limitations in force fields, efficient droplet evaporation at any temperature, and effective treatment of electrostatic interactions. Here, we present a robust methodology for molecular simulations that enables the study of the chemistry and interactions of macromolecules within a droplet, and the relationship between the dynamics of the process of interest and the solvent evaporation rate. The competition of these dynamic processes will determine the mass spectrum. The success of the approach depends on the accurate and effective treatment of electostatic interactions in combination with the efficient use of spherical boundary conditions. Multilevel summation method (MSM) has been developed [Hardy et al. ``Multilevel summation method for electrostatic force evaluation'' J. Chem. Theory Comput. {\bf 11}, 766 (2015)] for the efficient treatment of electrostatics in non-periodic and semi-periodic systems, charged and neutral. We present comparison of MSM with particle-mesh Ewald (PME) method in order to show MSM's ability to study conformational changes of macromolecules in droplets. We find that MSM produces the same conformations of macromolecules (within one standard deviation) as PME. We demonstrate the capability of spherical boundary condition and MSM to study physical and chemical processes in droplets by using the example of the Rayleigh jet formation and charge emission from it. We conclude that robust approaches for droplet simulations that can be used with a force field of any complexity are available and can be implemented within many of the available open-source molecular modeling softwares. In the near future, the presented approach may provide reliable reference mass spectra for experiments, where the deviations from the experimental data may reveal valuable information about the processes that take place within the instrument.

This article presents a novel multiprobe planar near-field range (PNFR) measurement system. The said system simplifies the overall mechanical design, making it simpler than the existing scanning probe PNFR measurements, and also significantly reduces testing time. A dielectric-based probe is introduced to reduce the antenna size, thereby improving resolution. The probe under consideration is an antipodal Vivaldi antenna offering broadband support and ensuring wideband characteristics of aerials. Numerical results for representative X-band antenna models, presented in the Matlab environment, demonstrate robust performance of the developed measurement system.
Women naturalists in Tūhura Otago Museum, Dunedin
Authors: Crane Rosi
Published: July 2024

Historical studies on naturalists who contributed their expertise to Tūhura Otago Museum, are few and invariably deal with men. The roles that women played in the formation of its collections in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries are uncovered. The paucity of information in the handwritten museum registers and archive is supplemented to a small extent by newsprint and annual reports. Women’s expertise included field collecting and academic studies. Donations arose because of changing family circumstances or through friendships with the male curators. A few businesswomen also featured. The career of Lily Daff, the museum’s first female appointment, is described as she rose to become chief designer.

Objective: To understand the perception and practice of nursing professionals about care related to the maintenance and prevention of enteral probe loss in hospitalization units. Methods: Quanti-qualitative and descriptive study carried out in a large general hospital in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil. It was attended by 40 professionals, 19 nurses and 21 nursing technicians, interviewed in September and October 2018. Secondary data were collected from the medical records of 114 patients who were using an enteral probe from 01/01/2017 to 01 /01/2018. Results: It was observed that the majority (68.4%) of patients undergoing enteral nutritional therapy were over 60 years of age. Nutritional causes were the main indication for the use of probes, occurring in 51.7% of patients. Most (90.0%) of professionals recognize that washing the probe is the main care in terms of preventing loss of this device and recognize that the biggest complication of its use is bronchoaspiration. Conclusion: It was found that nursing professionals have knowledge about care related to maintenance and prevention of probe loss, but the perception of these professionals is different from the information introduced in the medical records, which may highlight a disarticulation between knowledge and care practice.

Published: July 2024

The subject of the study is ensuring economic growth through tax optimization while using the potential of the oil industry. The purpose of the work is to substantiate the improvement of tax mechanisms in the oil industry to stimulate the economic growth of the Russian Federation. The problems of the formation of the tax potential of oil are analyzed, including through the involvement of tax reserves of the shadow sector of oil production and refining, as well as the replenishment of oil reserves on the state balance of mineral reserves. The main attention in the article is paid to the analysis of the oil accounting procedure and the establishment of the reliability of indicators characterizing the tax potential of the oil industry, the amount of the tax burden and the factors that influence its formation. A trend has been identified confirming the gradual occupation of stable positions by the additional income tax within the framework of ensuring stable budget revenues and its gradual replacement of the mineral extraction tax to ensure stable budget revenues in predictable conditions. It has been established that a complete and reliable accounting of petroleum raw materials for tax purposes is the most important condition for the economic development of the Russian Federation. Reserves of shadow turnover of oil and petroleum products have been identified. As a result of the study, proposals were made on the directions of tax regulation in the oil industry
Exploring Prisoners’ Communication Strategies with their Supervisors when Studying in E-Learning Mode: A Case of Namibia
Authors: Mahlangu Vimbi Petrus
Published: July 2024

This study delves into the communication strategies used by inmates when engaging in e-learning within the confines of a Namibian prison. Despite the challenging living conditions inherent in such environments, the research posits that inmates exhibit a strong motivation to pursue further education. The rise of e-learning has opened educational opportunities for diverse populations, including those incarcerated. In Namibia, prisoners have access to education through e-learning platforms, allowing them to pursue studies and gain qualifications. However, this mode of learning presents unique challenges, particularly in communication with supervisors. The objective was to understand the challenges faced by prisoners following higher education programs in communicating with their supervisors. Method: Data was collected through interviews, situated within an interpretive paradigm. The study focused on a sample of prisoners enrolled in e-learning programs in a Namibian correctional facility. Analysis: Verbatim transcripts of audio-recorded interviews were meticulously prepared by a skilled transcriber, offering the author a comprehensive material for interpretation. Thematic analysis was used to interpret the data. Results: It was found that prisoners’ communication strategies with their supervisors, amongst others, included communication via-email; telephonic communication; communication via the internet and online studies, as well as through in-person appointments. Furthermore, the study contextualized its findings within the evolution of Namibia's legal system, highlighting a significant shift from punitive measures towards a rehabilitative focus on corrections and community reintegration. Namibia's legal system is rehabilitative instead of being punitive. This transformation underscores the broader societal changes in attitudes towards incarceration and highlights the importance of educational initiatives within correctional facilities.
