Trends of ischemic heart disease mortality attributable to smoking in the five countries with the highest number of smokers during 1990–2019: an age-period-cohort analysis
Authors: Tang Shaoliang , Meng Juan , Zhao Xinghua , Sun Wenting
Published: February 2024

Introduction

Smoking increases the risk of various cardiovascular diseases, including ischemic heart disease (IHD). This study aimed to assess the impact of age, period, and cohort on long-term trends in IHD mortality in China, India, Indonesia, the United States, and Russia, the five countries with the highest number of smokers, from 1990 to 2019.

Material and methods

The data were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) Study 2019, and the age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) was calculated. Joinpoint regression analysis was used to assess the magnitude and direction of trends in smoking-attributable mortality from IHD. Age-period-cohort (APC) studies were used to estimate net drift (estimated annual percentage change (EAPC)s), local drift (age-specific EAPCs), and independent trends in age, period, and cohort effects.

Results

The analysis revealed a significant downward trend in ASMRs attributable to IHD as a result of smoking in the United States, India, and Russia. Indonesia and China showed an upward trend. Age effects were increasing for both country and sex, with China showing the most significant increase in the older age group; period effects were decreasing in all countries except Indonesia, and cohort effects were increasing only in Indonesia and China.

Conclusions

From 1990 to 2019, mortality from IHD caused by smoking showed a downward trend in these five countries. However, the pattern of increased mortality from IHD in women caused by smoking warrants further study.

Published: February 2024

Background: Ecological assessment of heavy metal contamination of Tympanotonus fuscatus in Iko River Basin was investigated for a period of twelve (12) months between September 2022 – August, 2023 with aim of understanding the ecological status and the safety of consuming the mangrove periwinkle (Tympanotonus fuscatus) obtained from the Estuary. Methodology: Samples of T. fuscatus were bought from landings of artisanal isheries in Iko River Basin on a monthly basis for a period of 12 months. The samples were placed immediately in poly-ethylene bags, put into an isolated container of polystyrene icebox, and then brought to the laboratory prior to laboratory analysis. In the laboratory standard analytical procedures were adhered to in the preparation of samples prior to heavy metal determination using Perkin-Elmer Analysts 800 Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). Results: From the results it was found out that the mean concentration of heavy metal throughout the study duration followed the trend Fe > Zn > Cr > Mg > Cu > Pb > Ni > Cd for the dry season while a different trend Fe > Zn Pb >> Mg > Ni >> Cu > Cr > Cd was observed during the wet season. Amongst the metals studied, seasonal variation was observed for zinc. The dominance of Fe and Zn throughout the study duration was attributed to their abundance in the earth’s crust. Correlation analysis showed a strong positive relationship between metal pairs in the dry season which portends that an increase in the concentration of one metal mandates a corresponding increase in the other while a negative correlation was observed between metals pairs in the wet season which signiies an inverse relationship. The hierarchical cluster dendrogram delineated the metals into four (4) cluster groups in the dry season and three (3) cluster groups in the wet season based on concentration gradient and source of contamination. Conclusion: However, the results of the indings showed that the concentration of heavy metal in the tissue of the studied species fell within the WHO/FAO recommended threshold limit for safe consumption of aquatic seafood. By mitigating the sources of contamination and implementing effective conservation strategies, we can safeguard T. fuscatus and preserve the ecological balance of the vital estuarine environments they inhabit through collaborative efforts from regulatory bodies, industries, and local communities.

Published: February 2024

Mardin'in 20. yüzyılın başında geçirdiği önemli kentsel değişimlerden biri, "1. Cadde"nin açılmasıyla gerçekleşmiştir. 1. Cadde’nin açılması ve daha sonraki yıllarda genişletilmesi, yolun üzerindeki ve yakınındaki birçok yapıyı etkilemiştir. Bu değişim, yapıların kısmen ya da tamamen yıkılmasına da yol açmıştır. Çalışmada, Mardin'de gerçekleşen bu önemli kentsel değişimin özel mekâna olan etkisini görmek amaçlanmıştır. Bu kapsamda 1. Cadde üzerinde konumlanan Şeyhmus Gözüoğlu Evi'nin geçirdiği değişim araştırılmıştır. Çalışmanın yöntemini 2021-2022 yıllarında yerinde yapılan gözlemler, ev sahibi ile yapılan görüşmeler, yapı ile ilgili literatür araştırması ve görsel belgelerin incelenmesi oluşturmaktadır. Yapılan literatür araştırmasında Mardin Evleri ve 1. Cadde ile ilgili birçok çalışmanın mevcut olduğu ancak Şeyhmus Gözüoğlu Evi ile ilgili bilimsel bir çalışma olmadığı görülmüştür. Araştırmanın sonucunda, 1. Cadde'nin genişletilmesi sırasında Şeyhmus Gözüoğlu Evi'nin bu müdahaleden etkilenen yapılardan biri olduğu ve kısmen değişikliğe uğradığı tespit edilmiştir. 1. Cadde üzerinde bulunan birçok yapının da benzer değişiklikler geçirdiği tahmin edilmektedir.

Published: February 2024

в приближении теории среднего поля исследованы свойства антиферромагнетика при наличии внешнего магнитного поля. Показано, что внешнее магнитное поле не разрушает фазовый переход в антиферромагнетике, а только изменяет критические показатели и сдвигает критическую точку, что позволяет управлять параметрами системы. При этом число критических точек может изменяться от одной (фазовый переход второго рода) до четырех (два фазовых перехода первого рода и два фазовых перехода второго рода). Исследованы критические показатели в критической точке, сдвинутой магнитным полем. Показано, что в материалах с сильным антиферромагнитным взаимодействием, варьируя величину магнитного поля, можно повысить критическую температуру более чем в три раза.

we studied the properties of antiferromagnetic materials in an external magnetic field using the mean field approximation. We found that the external magnetic field does not destroy the phase transition in antiferromagnetic materials but just changes the critical properties and shifts the critical point so it is possible to control the system properties. Moreover, the number of critical points can vary from one (second-order phase transition) to four (two first-order phase transitions and two second-order phase transitions). We estimated the critical properties at the critical point shifted by the applied magnetic field. We showed that by varying the magnetic field magnitude, we can increase the critical temperature in materials with strong antiferromagnetic interactions by more than 300%.
Formation of Viscous Fingers at Interphase Boundaries During the Joint Displacement of Three Viscous Liquids from Porous Media
Authors: Паремская Л. А.
Published: February 2024

в работе рассматривается специфика неустойчивого вытеснения вязких жидкостей из пористых сред. Исследуется совместное вытеснение трех вязких жидкостей. В случае, если вязкость вытесняющей жидкости меньше, чем вязкость вытесняемой, на фронте вытеснения возникает известная неустойчивость Саффмана—Тейлора. Предлагается посмотреть на результат вытеснения трех жидкостей с различным перепадом вязкости на границах раздела жидкостей. Наблюдается просачивание «вязких пальцев» одной межфазной границы сквозь «вязкие пальцы», образовавшиеся на другой границе. Также результаты численного моделирования продемонстрировали временный «захват» вытесняемой жидкости при определенном перепаде вязкости на межфазной границе. Выявлено формирование «вязких пальцев» при фронтальном вытеснении, схожих с «пальцами» при радиальном вытеснении. Определяются факторы, влияющие на развитие «пальцев» под углом к направлению течения. Проводится сравнение с результатами, полученными при вытеснении нефти полимерным раствором: предварительной закачкой в пласт дополнительного раствора — жидкости с добавлением высокомолекулярных полимерных соединений, наличие которых приводит к увеличению вязкости жидкости. Благодаря этому осуществляется уменьшение перепада вязкости на границе раствор — нефть, что приводит к существенному увеличению нефтеотдачи

this study examines the peculiarities of the unstable displacement of viscous fluids from porous media. The joint displacement of three viscous fluids is studied. When the viscosity of the displacing fluid is lower than the viscosity of the displaced fluid, the well-known Saffman-Taylor instability occurs at the displacement front. It is proposed to consider the result of displacement of three fluids with different viscosity differences at the interfaces between the fluids. The leakage of “viscous fingers” of one interphase boundary through the “viscous fingers” formed at the other boundary is observed. The numerical modeling results also showed the temporary “trapping” of the displaced fluid at a certain viscosity difference at the interface. The formation of ”viscous fingers” during frontal displacement, similar to “fingers” during radial displacement, was revealed. The factors influencing the formation of “fingers” at an angle to the direction of flow are determined. A comparison is made with the results obtained when displacing oil with a polymer solution: an additional solution – a liquid with the addition of high-molecular polymer compounds, the presence of which leads to an increase in the viscosity of the liquid – is pre-injected into the reservoir. As a result, the viscosity difference at the solution-oil interface is reduced, which leads to a significant increase in oil recovery

Airborne lidar measurements of atmospheric CO2 column concentrations to cloud tops made during the 2017 ASCENDS/ABoVE campaign
Authors: Mao Jianping , Abshire James B. , Kawa S. Randy , Sun Xiaoli , Riris Haris
Published: February 2024

Abstract. We measured the column-averaged atmospheric CO2 mixing ratio (XCO2) to a variety of cloud tops with an airborne pulsed multi-wavelength integrated path differential absorption (IPDA) lidar during NASA's 2017 ASCENDS/ABoVE airborne campaign. Measurements of height-resolved atmospheric backscatter profiles allow this lidar to retrieve XCO2 to cloud tops, as well as to the ground, with accurate knowledge of the photon path length. We validated these measurements with those from an onboard in situ CO2 sensor during spiral-down maneuvers. These lidar measurements were 2–3 times better than those from previous airborne campaigns due to our using a wavelength step-locked laser transmitter and a high-efficiency detector for this campaign. Precisions of 0.6 parts per million (ppm) were achieved for 10 s average measurements to mid-level clouds and 0.9 ppm to low-level clouds at the top of the planetary boundary layer. This study demonstrates the lidar's capability to fill in XCO2 measurement gaps in cloudy regions and to help resolve the vertical and horizontal distributions of atmospheric CO2. Future airborne campaigns and spaceborne missions with this capability can be used to improve atmospheric transport modeling, flux estimation and carbon data assimilation.
AN INTERDISCIPLINARY SPATIAL HUMANITIES APPROACH TO STUDY THE TRANSFORMATIONS OF THE SOUTH FAÇADE OF THE SALA DEI CINQUECENTO OF PALAZZO VECCHIO IN FLORENCE

Published: February 2024

Abstract. Digital and spatial techniques, such as reality-based surveying and 3D modelling, have long been used in archaeology. However, in recent years the use of these techniques has gained importance also in the history of architecture, a discipline in which these data can help to interpret traditionally used, but often incomplete, written sources (Tucci et al. 2021; Fiorini et al. 2023).This paper is about an aspect of the eighteenth-century renovations of Palazzo Vecchio. It focuses attention on a small terrace that runs alongside the exterior facade of the Sala dei Cinquecento and to which there is no entrance. The question this paper seeks to answer is: why during eighteenth-century renovations it was decided to exclude the existing entrance to the terrace from the accessible spaces? Using geomatics techniques, it has been possible to identify the location of the enclosed spaces in relation to other parts of the building (Tucci, 2017).In accordance with the criteria of Spatial Humanities, the present research is characterized by an interdisciplinary approach based on the analysis and interpretation of data obtained from archival sources (Archivio Storico Comunale di Firenze, Fototeca Comunale di Firenze, Archivio Centrale di Stato di Roma, Archivio di Stato di Firenze, Gabinetto fotografico degli Uffizi, Catalogo Generale Beni Culturali, Biblioteca Nazionale), the consultation of relevant published iconographic sources in libraries, and the interpretation of 3D data and architectural elements discovered during the onsite survey of the area between the inner and outer southern façades of the Sala dei Cinquecento.The first part of this essay focus on the southern façade of the Sala dei Cinquecento and aims to demonstrate to what extent the Carlo Falconieri’s modification altered the general appearance of the façade. The second part, aims to clarify the architectural phases or aspects of the southern façade of the Sala dei Cinquecento before Falconieri’s works.
NEURAL RADIANCE FIELDS (NERF) FOR MULTI-SCALE 3D MODELING OF CULTURAL HERITAGE ARTIFACTS
Authors: Croce V. , Forleo G. , Billi D. , Bevilacqua M. G. , Piemonte A. , Caroti G.
Published: February 2024

Abstract. This research aims to assess the adaptability of Neural Radiance Fields (NeRF) for the digital documentation of cultural heritage objects of varying size and complexity. We discuss the influence of object size, desired scale of representation, and level of detail on the choice to use NeRF for cultural heritage documentation, providing insights for practitioners in the field. Case studies range from historic pavements to architectural elements or buildings, representing diverse and multi-scale scenarios encountered in heritage documentation procedures. The findings suggest that NeRFs perform well in scenarios with homogeneous textures, variable lighting conditions, reflective surfaces, and fine details. However, they exhibit higher noise and lower texture quality compared to other consolidated image-based techniques as photogrammetry, especially in case of small-scale artifacts.
A SCALABLE APPROACH FOR AUTOMATING SCAN-TO-BIM PROCESSES IN THE HERITAGE FIELD

Published: February 2024

Abstract. In recent years, the demand for flexible and sustainable strategies in digitization processes has represented a significant challenge for the heritage documentation research community. In particular, the tasks of parametric modelling and AI-based semantic enrichment operations, necessary but traditionally time-consuming, is extremely onerous from a user-oriented perspective. Many efforts of the research community have been dedicated to enhancing efficiency through automation, and one of the possible solutions is represented by the employment of machine learning strategies. This study introduces an innovative methodology that integrates Visual Programming Language platforms and 3D Python libraries, thereby implementing the Scan-to-BIM approach. Two case studies - characterized by varying scales, resolutions, and accuracies - have been analysed to validate the proposed pipeline, demonstrating its flexibility and scalability across architectural objects and archaeological assets belonging to museum collections. The workflow involves several steps, starting from classified 3D and 2D data segmented using machine learning techniques with the aim of managing semantically enriched reality-based data in BIM/HBIM environment without scarifying accuracy criteria. Results highlight the methodology's efficiency and adaptability in diverse contexts, offering a compelling alternative to labour-intensive Scan-to-BIM processes. Ultimately, this methodology contributes to the automation in cultural heritage digitisation, underlining the need for comprehensive standards and protocols in this dynamic domain.
3D EDGE DETECTION BASED ON NORMAL VECTORS

Published: February 2024

Abstract. Edge detection is supported by extensive research and is part of different photogrammetric and computer vision tasks across numerous application areas. While 2D edge detection may achieve high accuracy results from several automated methods, the automation of edge detection in 3D space remains a challenge. Existing methods are often computationally demanding and heavily parameterized, leading to a lack of adaptability. In real-world applications 3D edges, representing the object boundaries and break lines, are crucial, particularly in fields such as computer vision, robotics and architecture. In this context, we present a method that automates 3D edge detection in 3D point clouds exploiting the normal vectors’ direction differences to detect finite edges, which are further pruned and grouped to edge segments and fitted to indicate the presence of a 3D edge.
Examining the Influence of Warm-Up Static and Dynamic Stretching, as well as Post-Activation Potentiation Effects, on the Acute Enhancement of Gymnastic Performance: A Systematic Review with Meta-Analysis

Published: February 2024

The primary objective of this systematic review with meta-analysis is to methodically discern and compare the impact of diverse warm-up strategies, including both static and dynamic stretching, as well as post-activation potentiation techniques, on the immediate performance of gymnasts. Adhering to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, this paper evaluated studies that examined the gymnasts’ performance after different warm-up strategies namely stretching (static [SS] or dynamic), vibration platforms (VP) or post-activation, in comparison to control conditions (e.g., mixed warm-up routines; no warm-up). The principal outcomes were centered on technical performance metrics (e.g., split, gymnastic jumps) and physical performance metrics (e.g., squat jump, countermovement jump, drop jump, balance, range of motion). Methodological assessments of the included studies were conducted using the Downs and Black Checklist. From the initial search across PubMed, Scopus, and the Web of Science databases, a total of 591 titles were retrieved, and 19 articles were ultimately incorporated in the analysis. The results revealed a non-significant differences (p > 0.05) between the SS condition and control conditions in squat jump performance, countermovement jump and gymnastic technical performance (e.g., split; split jump). Despite the difference in warm-up strategies and outcomes analyzed, the results suggest that there is no significant impairment of lower-limb power after SS. Additionally, technical elements dependent on flexibility appear to be enhanced by SS. Conversely, dynamic stretching and VP seem to be more effective for augmenting power-related and dynamic performance in gymnasts.
El relato de filiación y sus avatares hispanoamericanos,

Published: February 2024

En esta contribución nos proponemos reflexionar sobre la manera en que la forma del relato de filiación se inscribe en la literatura hispanoamericana contemporánea. Si la aplicabilidad a un corpus ajeno de un concepto forjado primero y antes que nada para analizar obras francesas debe ser cuestionado, veremos que el esquema general propuesto por Dominique Viart ya ha sido utilizado por diferentes críticos de la literatura hispanoamericana. Pasaremos revista a estos distintos usos y resaltaremos los parecidos y las diferencias entre los corpus de obras francesas e hispanoamericanas. Para terminar, presentaremos el subcorpus de relatos de filiación hispanoamericanos que hemos denominado “investigaciones críticas de duelo” y expondremos sus características principales.

Independencia y Neoclasicismo en los escenarios de Hispanoamérica
Authors: Márquez-Montes Carmen
Published: February 2024

En este trabajo se indaga sobre la estrecha relación entre teatro y movimientos de independencia. Se parte de la hipótesis de que los procesos de independencia y el teatro neoclásico estuvieron muy unidos, en primer lugar, por coincidencia temporal y, en segundo, porque su imaginario fue dado a conocer por los hombres que promovieron la independencia, la mayoría de ellos formados en España y Francia. Primero llegan las ideas ilustradas y con posterioridad llega el teatro neoclásico, utilizado para expandir la llama de la independencia por todos los escenarios de América.
La noción de verdades en la filosofía de Alain Badiou: un análisis de su concepción del conocimiento y la realidad
Authors: León Eduardo Alberto , Salazar Achig Jhonatan Mauricio
Published: February 2024

La noción de verdad ha sido siempre el tesoro de la filosofía, su objeto de estudio y debate durante siglos, sin embargo, en la actualidad hay numerosas perspectivas que ofrecen respuestas innovadoras a la relación entre verdad, conocimiento y realidad, pero ninguna de ellas tiene una claridad abrumadora como la que nos ofrece la filosofía de Alain Badiou. Es que no se queda en poner su postura frente al debate, sino que resuelve lo que a las otras perspectivas les faltaba.  El tema abordado en este artículo es relevante al menos por tres razones: en primer lugar, porque al tocar la relación entre verdad, conocimiento y realidad en Badiou se vuelve sobre un lugar clásico dentro de la tradición filosófica, en segundo lugar, porque, al plantear el problema, no solo se queda en el campo de la filosofía sino que ronda el debate actual en múltiples campos los que denomina procedimientos genéricos de verdades, en tercer lugar, porque se intenta explorar las relaciones entre verdad y conocimiento en la filosofía de Badiou, algo no muy frecuente en los estudios badiousianos.
The Possibility of the Possibility of Something New: The Subject and Fidelity to the Event in Love and Politics
Authors: Fernandez-Alvarez Hilda , Johal Am
Published: February 2024

Our chapter interrogates the conditions that give rise to the possibility of the Event and proposes a Lacanian-Badiouian perspective to think through conditions for the truth procedures of love and politics. First, we situate the Event, Possibility and Truth in both Badiou and Lacan, which brings forward conceptual tensions between truth and knowledge as presented in the psychoanalytic act. We propose with Badiou and Lacan that the emergence of possibility follows a logic that rupture compulsive repetition and whose effect is precisely the Event which results in knowledge of a savoir faire, of transmissible quality, that grant re-inscription (a new writing of the necessary) and/or a partial inscription of the impossible. The notion of love as beyond narcissism, allows us to discuss how to reimagine politics anew, including approaching it through the problem of ecology.
Naming and Fidelity of Truth: Rethinking Revolutionary Politics and Localizing, Delocalizing or Relocalizing the Void in Alain Badiou's Philosophy

This article explores the philosophy of Alain Badiou from the vantage point of the concepts of the localization, delocalization, and relocalization of the void as thematized through literary arts, religion, emancipatory politics, and the subject of psychoanalysis. In short, these moments around the void characterize the processes through which truth is processed and seen through their full realization by a philosophical engagement across the various conditions in which these truths occur. The localization of a void is the naming of an indiscernible element that is incommensurable to the rubric of constructible knowledge, sense and meaning which could saturate the space of truth. Thus, the naming that localizes the void acts as a subtraction of the invariant in the variance of situation such that across various points in space and time, we are still able to subtract the universal as the invariant not just as the fidelity to the localized truth but also as the resurrection of truth upon its relocalization at a different place and a different time. At its core, this article is concerned with truth, why truth is persistent, and why we have to struggle to articulate the truth that we are trying to be faithful to again and again with each instance that truth risks being covered-over and obscured.
Badiou(s): miradas sobre una vida caleidoscópica

Referirse a la multiplicidad es un lugar común cuando se trata de la obra de Alain Badiou, en tanto es una producción de una notoria complejidad y la exploración de sus diversas facetas es adentrarse en un universo de múltiples dimensiones. En este sentido, se propone comparar su producción con un caleidoscopio, un artefacto que revela la multiplicidad como esencia de la unidad y, a su vez, confiere significado a esa diversidad.  Esta multiplicidad caleidoscópica no se limita únicamente a la figura del intelectual y sus escritos, sino que se expande hacia otros ámbitos. En efecto, al analizar sus primeras obras y los inicios de su trayectoria intelectual  se vuelve evidente la influencia de Sartre, así como sus conexiones posteriores con el estructuralismo francés y, en particular, con la figura de Louis Althusser. Por otra parte, interesa aquí destacar que las producciones de Badiou, lejos de encerrarse en debates del ámbito académico, se entrelazan con tópicos como la cuestión del amor, la cual se conecta de modo directo con el resto de sus reflexiones teóricas y políticas. De este modo, interesa aquí apreciar esta particular intersección que permite una comprensión más profunda de su pensamiento y su preocupación radical por lo social.

Objective: To predict preeclampsia by the ratio of the HCG MoM value in the first and second trimester screening tests.

Material and Methods: The HCG-MoM values of 136 pregnant women with preeclampsia and 222 normatensive pregnant women used for first and second-trimester screening tests were proportioned , and the difference between the groups was examined. Numeric variables are expressed as mean ± standard deviation, median (minimum – maximum), and categorical variables as n (%).

Results: HCG MoM values were not different between the two groups and were within the accepted international values. The ratio of the free HCG MoM value in the first trimester to the intact HCG MoM value in the second trimester was significantly higher in the control group (1.06) than in the study group (0.99) (p=0.02).

Conclusion: Rating the MoM values of β-HCG, a biochemical marker used in screening tests for chromosomal anomaly, may predict preeclampsia in the later weeks of pregnancy.

According to the Ministry of Employment and Labor, 40% of fatal accidents due to industrial accidents between 2017 and 2021 were at partner workplaces, and 62.6% of all accidents (as of 2021) were preventable by following basic safety rules, such as falling, getting caught, or colliding. Therefore, this study investigated the effect of the prime companies’ safety support on the safety culture creation and safety behavior of workers in partner workplaces as a way to establish a safety culture in partner workplaces. This study was designed to examine the effect of safety support from prime companies on safety behavior level of workers at partner workplaces. It is a cross-sectional study using the Korea Occupational Safety and Health Agency’s 2021 Occupational Safety and Health data. The sample for the study is 739 manufacturing partner workplaces. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and hierarchical multiple regression analysis using SPSS (ver.21). According to this study, there were labor unions in 91 places and 13.9% in 94 places with departments dedicated to industrial safety and health, indicating that the establishment of an industrial safety and health system was generally insufficient. In addition, this study examined the effect of the prime companies' safety support on the safety culture of partner workplaces and the safety behavior of their workers. As a result of the hierarchical multiple regression analysis, safety support from prime companies had a positive (+) effect on safety culture at partner workplaces. Leadership of management appear to have a partial mediating effect on safety support from prime companies and safety behavior level at partner workplaces. Safety communication and education·systems appear to have a mediating effect on safety support from prime companies and safety behavior level at partner workplaces. According to this study, active safety support from the prime companies can revitalize the safety culture of the partner workplaces, thereby improving the level of safety behavior of workers to prevent accidents. Since partner workplaces generally lack safety capabilities compared to the prime companies, they can spread the safety culture of partner workplaces through safety support from the prime companies, and it can be expected to be effective in preventing industrial accidents by controlling the unsafe behavior of workers by establishing a safety culture.

A population of Xerocrassa (Xeroclausa) meda (Porro, 1840) (Gastropoda: Geomitridae) from its locus typicus (Municipality of Sassari, Sardinia, Italy)
Authors: Doneddu Mauro , Liberto Fabio , Trainito Egidio
Published: February 2024

Until now the original distribution of Xerocrassa (Xeroclausa) meda (Porro, 1840) (Gastropoda: Geomitridae) was considered limited to Sicily and, perhaps, to Malta, while records from other Mediterranean localities were attributed to involuntary introductions. The presence of stable populations in Sardinia has so far been considered doubtful. The discovery of a living population in Sassari (Northern Sardinia), 183 years after the original description of Porro, which took place on specimens from this same locality, leads to a review of knowledge on the actual distribution of the species. The genital morphology of the populations from Sassari is investigated and compared with those from Sicily and literature data.

El objetivo principal de este estudio fue determinar la incidencia del conflicto entre Rusia y Ucrania en la competitividad de las empresas exportadoras del sector bananero colombiano, durante el periodo 2021-2022, utilizando las teorías de relaciones internacionales: Liberales y realistas, así como las teorías de las cuotas de mercado y de las ventajas comparativas y competitivas de las exportaciones en todas las empresas bananeras que registra la Dian, mediante datos del Dane, Augura, Trade Map e International Trade Centre, mediante el método cuantitativo y descriptivo, encontrándose que las empresas exportadoras grandes y pymes, se vieron afectadas por las pérdidas económicas a causa de las diferentes problemáticas coyunturales, que han representado los periodos de pandemia y el conflicto de Rusia y Ucrania, disminuyendo desde 2020 sus exportaciones, recuperándose en 2021 y volviendo a profundizar la crisis desde marzo de 2022, ocasionando la perdida de empresas que salieron del mercado, donde se vio más afectada SCI Banafrut S.A. Dado lo anterior, hay que tener en cuenta esta situación para decidir invertir en la producción y exportación de banano con el fin de lograr obtener mayor rentabilidad en nuevos mercados y otros ya existentes, para lo cual se recomienda realizar estrategias de mejora para anticiparnos a los problemas y buscar mercados que cubran las exportaciones colombianas.
Postoperative pain control for shoulder arthroplasty
Authors: Walker Mahala , Kamineni Srinath
Published: February 2024

Since its inception in 1893, shoulder arthroplasty has become an increasingly common surgical procedure. Between 1998 and 2008, shoulder arthroplasty procedures increased by nearly 28,000 cases per year in the United States alone and is the fastest growing joint replacement surgery among all joint. Despite its advantages, shoulder arthroplasty is often accompanied by significant postoperative pain. Pain control continues to be a major concern in patient management, as it impacts operative costs, postoperative mobility, length of hospital stay, patient satisfaction, and overall surgical outcomes. This review aims to provide an overview of drugs such as opioids and regional anesthetics, as well as methods such as local wound infiltration, nerve block, brachial plexus infiltration, cryotherapy and multimodal approaches employed in postoperative shoulder arthroplasty pain control.
