Novel Digital Wearable Sensors for Drug Development in Pharmaceutical Industry
Authors: Di Junrui , Karas Marta , Vlajnic Vanja
Published: November 2024

As clinical trials evolve with technological advancements, wearable sensors and digital health technologies (DHTs) have significantly enhanced data collection by providing continuous, near real-time measurements. Traditional methods, constrained by infrequent site visits and subjective measures, often result in sparse, low-resolution data that limits understanding of patient outcomes. The adoption of wearables in drug development has led to the growth of novel digital endpoints across multiple therapeutic areas, such as stride velocity in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and physical activity in heart failure. Regulatory bodies have issued guidance supporting the integration of DHTs, emphasizing objective endpoints. The US Food and Drug Administration’s Digital Health Center of Excellence and guidelines on remote data acquisition exemplify this support. Additionally, frameworks such as the Digital Medicine Society’s “V3+” standardize the validation of fit-for-purpose digital endpoints. Emerging analytical approaches for wearable sensor data, including functional data analysis and handling missing data, further bolster the utility of digital endpoints in clinical trials. Collectively, these advancements allow for a more comprehensive and nuanced understanding of patient health, improving both the precision and applicability of clinical trial outcomes. Ultimately, the integration of digital endpoints revolutionizes patient monitoring, enhancing drug development and regulatory decision-making.
Optimizing the Performance of a Wheeled Mobile Robot for Use in Agriculture
Authors: Amertet Sairoel , Gebresenbet Girma , Mohammed Alwan Hassan
Published: November 2024

Utilizing wheeled mobile robot systems may be essential to solving some of agriculture’s upcoming problems. The present state of wheeled mobile robot systems necessitates the development of an adequate controller algorithm due to their instability, which calls for a control mechanism to enhance stability. As such, much study is needed to address this issue. Currently, proportional, integral, derivative (PID) controllers are widely employed for this purpose; however, because of parameter variations or disturbances, the PID approach is often not acceptable. Some of the problems with PID controllers can be solved with alternative control strategies, such as linear-quadratic regulator (LQR) control. For this work, a four-wheel skid-steering mobile robot’s kinematic model was created in order to evaluate the performance of LQR control. Three scenarios—only non-zero state expensive; control expensive, non-zero state cheap; and control cheap, non-zero state expensive—were analyzed using the capabilities of the wheeled mobile robot. Based on these circumstances, the peak time, settling time, and rising time for cheap control were determined to be 0.1, 7.82, and 4.39 s, respectively.
Perspective Chapter: Electrochromic Efficiency in TixMe(1-x)Oy Type Mixed Metal-Oxide Alloys
Authors: Lábadi Zoltán , Taha Ismaeel Noor , Petrik Peter , Fried Miklós
Published: November 2024

Energy-effective smart windows, mirrors, display devices, and automobile sunroofs have been considered as applications of electrochromic materials. This chapter focuses on the electrochromic behavior of Ti-based mixed metal oxides. Transition metal oxides such as Titanium oxide (TiO2) have been used as promising electrochromic material for this purpose since a smart window contains solid electrolyte and electrochromic material layers (commonly metal oxide layers) sandwiched between transparent conductive layers. However, relatively few publications studied the possible advantages (higher colorization efficiency) of the mixtures of different metal oxides as electrochromic material. This chapter aims to assess the results of investigations of Ti-based multicomponent materials (TiO2-WO3, TiO2-V2O5, TiO2–MoO3, TiO2–SnO2) showing enhanced electrochromic properties compared to the pure TiO2.
The Role of Estrogen Receptors and Signaling Pathways in Breast Cancer
Authors: Rajesh Arya , Easley Evan , O. Madu Chikezie , Lu Yi
Published: November 2024

Breast cancer is the leading cancer found in females today. Although breast cancer can be broken down into various subtypes, the most prominent type is hormone receptor (HR) breast cancer. Hormones especially effective in females, such as progesterone and estrogen, may stimulate cancer cell proliferation. The four main breast cancer subtypes are HR+/HER2-, HR-/HER2+/−, HR-/HER2+, and HR-/HER2-, each characterized by the presence or absence of certain hormone receptors. HR breast cancers, due to high levels of progesterone and estrogen that promote cell proliferation and human epidermal growth factor receptors, grow by controlling gene transcription, cell division, and migration. Estrogen, a sex hormone primarily found in the female ovaries, binds to its associated receptors throughout the menstrual cycle and pregnancy. Various genes encode estrogen receptors, which regulate the expression of their respective genes. Estrogen causes ER-positive breast cancer growth via the continual binding of the hormone to cancer cell receptors. Conversely, ER-negative breast cancers are tumors that form due to the depletion of estrogen receptors from cancer cells. These cancers are regulated by two receptor types: ERα and ERβ. Recent treatment includes endocrine therapy, surgery, and epigenetic therapy.

This study investigates the correlation between financial difficulties resulting from inflation and mental health among Bangladeshi residents. A cross-sectional survey was conducted on 327 residents from different parts of Bangladesh between October and November 2022. A self-reported online questionnaire consisting of socio-demographic, financial, and psychometric measures (to assess depression, stress, and anxiety) was considered to accumulate information from participants. A non-parametric analysis was performed to determine the factors associated with mental health consequences. The chi-square test reveals that the levels of depression, stress, and anxiety were notably higher among the participants who reported female and lower monthly family income. However, the causal relationship between variables cannot be justified due to the cross-sectional study performed with a convenience sampling method. The study points out the contributing factors to poor mental health, which are the result of financial and economic difficulties during the period of inflation. These implications would prompt governments, healthcare providers, and financial institutions to contemplate comprehensive solutions that tackle both economic and mental health issues during inflationary periods.

On the State's efforts to regulate the repurchase of certain agricultural products in the early post-war years: The example of Pirot and its surroundings
Authors: Anđelković Miša
Published: November 2024

After the end of the Second World War, a new Yugoslav state was formed with a republican and socialist system modeled after the Soviet UN-ion. One of the measures of the post-war economic policy was the mandatory repurchase of agricultural products, i.e. the obligation of agricultural farms to sell certain quantities of agricultural products to the state at a state-predetermined price. This work aims to show how the state tried to regulate the repurchase of certain agricultural products. The focus is on the instructions issued by higher authorities to help the county and local authorities in the practical implementation of the repurchase. To write the paper, the author used documentation from the Historical Archive of Pirot, newspaper articles and published literature.
New perspective of cross-border cooperation of Serbia and Bulgaria
Authors: Tošić Vladica
Published: November 2024

The complex reality of cross-border cooperation, which can be defined as neighborly relations between local communities and authori - ties on both sides of the border, has gradually developed since the Second World War and is inextricably linked to political and historical events in Europe. European experience tells us that for regional integration it is necessary that, in addition to improving cooperation between states, co - operation between local territorial communities in the border area is also improved. The improvement of cross-border cooperation can represent a good basis for the establishment of good neighborly relations, which not only contribute to peace and stability in the region, but also essentially contribute to the promotion of European values and European integration requests and are a driver of economic development. In 2006, the European Union created a new instrument of cross-border territorial cooperation, based on the grouping of certain areas - European Grouping of Territorial Cooperation (EGTC). The establishment of cross-border cooperation through the establishment of the EGTC becomes necessary, in order to more effectively represent the common interests of the border regions of Serbia and Bulgaria. The paper presents the past experiences and results of the Euroregion in cross-border cooperation between Serbia and Bul - garia. In 2018, the Nišava Euroregion launched an initiative to establish the first EGTS in this part of Europe - EGTS Eurobalkan. The work brings a new perspective of cross-border cooperation through the formation of the European Group for Territorial Cooperation - EGTC Eurobalkan. In this context, we will consider the further development possibilities of the EGTC concept and the obstacles it may face in the future. In the theoretical sense, we will use the theory of regionalization and regionalism, and in terms of methods, we will use the historical method, case study method, statistical and comparative method.

Published: November 2024

Objective. The aim of the research is to examine the knowledge and attitudes of students about providing first aid, resuscitation and proper use of AED. Methods. The research was conducted in 2023 using an anonymous questionnaire taken from author Mikac Lee, which was culturally adapted. Eighty six in-class students of the College of Health Sciences Prijedor participated in the research.The questionnaire consists of sociodemographic data, knowledge of first aid and CPR, as well as the use of AED. The results were processed using SPSS V26 and presented tabularly and graphically. Results. The results showed that most students of all study programs would properly approach a vulnerable person. There was no statistically significant difference in knowledge of the examined items between students of different study programs. Students were divided on the claim that every person is legally obliged to provide first aid to an injured person. Conclusion. It is important to focus attention on the education of other non-medical students, because cardiac arrest can happen anywhere and to anyone, and the environment of the person at risk is a key factor in the survival rate of the person at risk. A high level of education of the population in the field of first aid, resuscitation and the use of AEDs is one of the biggest goals of all health workers.
The influence of physical activity on cognitive functions in the elderly population
Authors: Milanović Anita , Đerić Aleksandra , Pucar Nadežda
Published: November 2024

Dementia is basically an age-dependent brain organic psychosyndrome that represents a serious public health problem to-day. Some authors believe that regular exercise during all stages of life has a significant role in the prevention of dementia in old age, as well as the general improvement of cognitive abilities. Physical activity is a potential modulator of noradrenaline, serotonin and Dopamine transmission, both in the cerebral cortex and in subcortical structures. It is possible that in this way, regular physical activity indirectly affects the preservation and normal functioning of the brain's cholinergic system, which is vital for normal thinking, learning and memory. Also, aerobic muscle activity and exercise can potentially have a favorable effect on other psychological functions such as attention, perception, and emotions, that is, mood. Certain aspects of the impact of physical activity on cognitive functions are still unknown. The molecular and cellular processes that occur in the limbic system during exercise are poorly understood. Also, it is unclear whether and to what extent there are morphological changes in synapses and neuronal organization during physical activity, as well as whether these changes can prevent the onset of dementia. The goal of the paper is to show the impact of physical activity and exercise on cognitive functions during the aging process, as well as the potential importance of exercise in the prevention of cognitive deficits in old age. The paper is written as a review paper. The database in which the search was performed was Medline, PubMed, Cobson. Previous research has shown positive health effects of regular exercise in older adults, including reduced mortality, reduced risk of falls, and improved quality of life.
Tourism planning according to the man and the space
Authors: Stanković Stevan
Published: November 2024

The current domestic and foreign tourism in our country and in the world is developing in significant natural, rural and urban areas. As such, it is of interest for numerous research endeavours, operational activities and appropriate spatial and social planning in accordance with current legislation and established views on environmental sustainability. In places, regions and countries receptive to tourism, where tourism develops on the basis of tradition and respect for local and regional characteristics, the highest possible harmonisation and planning of development with existing natural and anthropogenic values is required, with particular attention to the views of modern ecology and anthropogeography on the unity of nature, man and society. The planning of modern domestic and international tourism in all its forms must always and everywhere be based on scientifically proven foundations and realistic social reality. The planning of tourism development must always and everywhere be aimed at achieving economic and social effects, i.e. directly at the economic component, since the income from tourism as a type of activity in the sense of unmanageable exports is significant for the country's balance of payments. The need for tourism development planning in harmony with people and nature is emphasised by a number of good experts in this field. Among them, the German sociologist Jost Krippendorf stands out, whose views are often quoted as expressing the need to respect the local and traditional over the universal when it comes to planning the overall tourism activities in a given area. Also of interest are the recommendations of the World Tourism Organisation, which are addressed to the member countries of this leading organisation in the field of tourism and travel (Krippendorf, 1986).
A reflection of financial stewardship in schools through fiscalizing behaviors of school heads in Samar, Philippines
Authors: C. Fabrao Ma. Carol , Pacadaljen Lanie M. Hamdy
Published: November 2024

Effective fiscal management enables school leaders to strategically allocate funds for critical needs such as instructional materials, infrastructure, and staff development, directly impacting the quality of education. Proper fiscal management also promotes transparency and accountability, develop trust among stakeholders, including parents, teachers, and the community. This paper developed a fiscal management model applicable to academic institutions in the Philippines. This paper analyzed the fiscalizing behaviors of school heads (n=738) from 26 districts of the Schools Division of Samar, during the School Year 2022-2023. They were asked about their fiscalizing behaviors in five constructs: budget planning, formal review and approval, implementing the budget, monitoring of fund, and fund communication. Their responses from open ended questions were used to design a model that represented the leadership-system-change interaction through thematic nodes. Findings indicated that the school heads exhibited generally positive fiscal management behaviors, particularly excelling in fund communication, budget planning, formal review, budget implementation, and fund monitoring, indicating strong adherence to sound financial practices. However, they face challenges such as resource sufficiency, not enough MOOE, depletion of funds,” and the urgent need of a building. Consequently, the model established the importance of collaborative leadership and strategic decision-making in school financial management. Strategic prioritization allows schools to allocate resources effectively, even in the face of challenges like budgetary shortfalls or unforeseen circumstances. Leadership behaviors can also be linked to the success of the fiscal management practices within their institutions.
Las políticas públicas y la violencia de género en Andalucía 2016-2019: Una aproximación sociológica
Authors: Albarracín Sánchez Daniel
Published: November 2024

Este artículo analiza la cuestión de las políticas de violencia de género, apoyándose, entre otras fuentes, en los resultados y conclusiones de un informe de auditoría en torno a la violencia de género en Andalucía (CCA, 2022). Lo haremos con una reflexión y perspectiva que procura aportar una visión de carácter crítico yendo más allá de dicho informe. Estudiamos los alcances y limitaciones de los recursos de la intervención institucional, centrándonos en los servicios de atención y acogida a las víctimas post-violencia, o que están en situaciones de alto riesgo de sufrirla. Partiendo de los hallazgos, realizamos una interpretación sociológica, para evaluar las medidas, que se prestan tras el proceso de denuncia, activadas por la Junta de Andalucía en torno a la violencia de género en el periodo 2016-2019 consistentes en la provisión de asistencia, acogida y protección en aras de la recuperación de las víctimas de la violencia machista. Según los indicadores, los recursos y servicios movilizados se encuentran estancados, y contribuyen apenas a aliviar a una fracción menor de víctimas. Los dispositivos y medidas no abordan aspectos socialmente preventivos de la violencia machista que no refieran a las mujeres atendidas, dada la infradotación de medios destinados a una intervención que se limita a asistir, acoger, proteger y apoyar a las mujeres víctimas y sus personas dependientes en una situación grave y de emergencia, con un carácter de mínimos y en términos de último recurso.
This article analyses the issue of gender-based violence policies, based, among other sources, on the results and conclusions of an audit report on gender-based violence in Andalusia (CCA, 2022). We will do so with a reflection and perspective that seeks to provide a critical vision that goes beyond the report. We study the scope and limitations of institutional intervention resources, focusing on the care and shelter services for post-violence victims, or those who are at high risk of suffering it. Based on the findings, we carried out a sociological interpretation to evaluate the measures, which are provided after the reporting process, activated by the Junta de Andalucía in the period 2016-2019 regarding gender-based violence, consisting of the provision of assistance, shelter and protection for the recovery of victims of gender-based violence. According to the indicators, the resources and services mobilised are stagnant, contributing only to the relief of a minor fraction of victims. The mechanisms and measures do not address socially preventive aspects of male violence that do not refer to the women in care, given the lack of resources allocated to an intervention that is limited to assisting, sheltering, protecting and supporting women victims and their dependents in a serious and emergency situation, with a minimal character and in terms of last resort.
Estimation of demand models for long-distance international travel – Key determinants for Swedes’ travel abroad
Authors: Kristoffersson Ida , Liu Chengxi
Published: November 2024

Although long-distance international travel contributes significantly to global emissions from the transport sector, disaggregated travel demand forecasting models on long-distance international travel are scarce. Large infrastructure investments such as high-speed rail may have a profound impact on long-distance international travel demand and thus need to be evaluated using such models. In this study, a disaggregated travel demand forecasting model is estimated using Swedish national travel survey data from 2011-2016 along with detailed supply data from European road, train, and ferry networks and a World-wide air network, aiming at forecasting Swedes’ long-distance travel abroad. Mode choice, destination choice and trip generation are modelled by traditional Nested Logit models and Multinomial Logit models. The model is segmented by purpose (private or business) and for private trips also by number of nights away. The model estimation results reveal effects of individual socio-economic attributes, level-of-service attributes, and destination characteristics. Marginal effect estimates of level-of-service attributes for train suggest that infrastructure investments in high-speed rail network may have a profound effect on demand for long-distance international travel, especially for business trips.

Published: November 2024

In today‘s society, we have entered the era of big data and the Internet of Things. The rise of services such as artificial intelligence, cloud storage, and the metaverse has led to increased demands for data transmission and storage. People now require not only greater capacity but also higher efficiency, more powerful hardware, and advanced algorithms. Storage the Reed Solomon (RS) code, as a highly effective error correction code, is officially applied in fields such as data storage and data transmission. The Cauchy Reed Solomon (CRS) Code, which is based on the RS code, utilizes a Cauchy matrix instead of the original Vandermonde matrix and replaces the original matrix multiplication with XOR operations. This paper primarily explores how the XOR optimized Cauchy Reed Solomon Code improves the efficiency of distributed storage systems, It was discovered that using lookup tables to store frequently used data and operations can further enhance the efficiency of storage systems and its future applications.
Early Detection of Parkinson’s Disease Using Image Processing and Machine Learning
Authors: V Yamuna , S Monisha , V Namratha , K Shalini , S Vandana
Published: November 2024

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder affecting millions globally. Early detection is crucial for timely intervention and improved patient outcomes. Conventional diagnostic methods rely on clinical assessments and neurological examinations, which may not detect subtle early stage changes. The integration of image processing techniques and machine learning (ML) algorithms has demonstrated promising results in early PD detection. Image processing extracts valuable information from medical imaging modalities such as MRI, PET, and SPECT, revealing structural and functional brain changes associated with PD prior to the manifestation of clinical symptoms. Advanced algorithms enhance image quality, segment regions of interest, and extract relevant features indicative of early PD signs. ML algorithms analyze these features and identify patterns distinguishing healthy individuals from those with early stage PD. Supervised learning techniques such as SVM, random forests, and deep neural networks can classify new cases, while unsupervised learning methods assist in identifying PD patient subgroups. This combined approach offers advantages including objective and quantitative measures of brain changes, detection of subtle alterations, and integration of multiple information sources to improve diagnostic accuracy. Recent studies have demonstrated the potential of this approach in detecting early stage PD, analyzing MRI scans to identify brain atrophy patterns and applying deep learning to PET images to detect abnormal dopamine metabolism. These advancements contribute to earlier diagnosis, disease progression monitoring, and treatment efficacy evaluation, presenting significant potential for revolutionizing early PD detection and management.
Bug Vision: Your Path to Seamless Debugging

Published: November 2024

Over the past several decades, formal mechanisms to track bugs have been embraced mostly in large software development firms although smaller teams normally sidestepped organized mechanisms completely. Rather, they used shared spreadsheets, simple lists of tasks or even an email stream to keep track of errors and bugs. This, much more often than not, turned out to be ineffective, time consuming and full of mistakes. This gentle casualness made it possible to become complacent and let minor ones go because they rarely had the spotlight that would have made it worth getting all worked up about it. The bug tracking systems are capable of providing structured workflows at every stage of the bug resolution which also enhances productivity and promotes accountability and transparency by recording every action performed to resolve a given issue. The implementation of a Bug Tracking System has numerous advantages to organizations such as enhanced efficiency of the defect resolution process and increased communication between the teams. This serves the purpose of accountability, reporting, communication within the team, and even motivating the members of the team by marking the completed tasks as satisfactory. Additionally, it brings the advantage of better management due to better historical records and report information which in turn enhances product quality as well as improves customer satisfaction by constantly improving the processes.

Such a system allows canal managers to make clear decisions on when dredging projects should be executed, the magnitude of the projects and the viability of such ventures in the long term, after assessing the complex water flow, sedimentation characteristics, and ecology of the area. One of the areas where DADSS excels is in the prediction of the rates of sedimentation using some advanced and over enhancing algorithms. At the end, this leads to obvious savings in expenses and improvement of the canal’s functionality due to effective organizing, thus, reducing the scope of unnecessary repairs. In addition, DADSS incorporates technological, socio political and environmental aspects, which allows limiting the costs and increasing the effectiveness of the project undertaken with the maximum possible environmental protection. The DADSS system is designed in such a manner that, it has an easy to use interface that facilitates the display of data on a timely basis as well as collaboration among users. In the process, the managers are able to alter the parameters to any general dredging operation to try out different tactics, envisage the advantages and disadvantages, and determine the best strategy. Such a model enables stakeholders to make choices that can improve safety navigation, limit the expenses on servicing the structures in the water, and ensure the management of the waterways is green. Additional improvements to DADSS that we are suggesting include the inclusion of state of the art technologies such as machine learning, digital twin modeling and real time data incorporating. These spirits of technologies will enable DADSS to enhance its forecasting precision, better manage dredging activities and reduce overall adverse effects to the environment stating the case for better management of the rivers.
