Published: December 2024

Chronic respiratory diseases impose a substantial health burden globally with increasing prevalence and mortality rates, especially in affluent nations. Recent studies underscore the escalating contribution to premature morbidity and mortality, highlighting the critical need for effective interventions. Inflammatory lung diseases, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), have significant roles in this burden that are characterized by heightened inflammation affecting the airways or lung parenchyma, leading to obstructive or restrictive lung diseases. These conditions often exhibit acute and chronic components, which complicate disease classification and management. Current treatments for lung illnesses predominantly rely on systemic drug delivery, which may result in poor efficacy and adverse effects on other organs. Inhalation lung delivery presents a promising alternative, offering advantages, such as targeted drug deposition, reduced systemic side effects, and rapid onset of action. Despite these benefits, inhalation drug delivery systems are still in the developmental stage, particularly for targeted local delivery. Dry powder inhalers (DPIs) have emerged as a popular choice due to ease of use, high-dose delivery capability, and breath-activated mechanisms. This review delves into the intriguing world of pulmonary drug delivery, with a spotlight on DPIs. From the fascinating design principles to the potential for precision medicine, DPIs offer a glimpse into the future of respiratory care. By unravelling the mysteries of DPI formulation and performance assessment, this review aimed to propel the field forward, ushering in a new era of personalized and efficacious inhalation therapies for inflammatory lung diseases and beyond. Furthermore, this article delved into the identification of prevalent technologies within the DPI domain while also probing the prospective avenues of emerging development. Such insights aim to assist researchers in making informed decisions regarding relevant research and development pursuits.
Decoding Age-Related Changes in Emotional Reactivity: The Importance of Distinguishing Positive and Negative Sensations
Authors: Laulan Pierrick , Rimmele Ulrike
Published: December 2024

This study investigated age-related variations in emotional reactivity, focusing on the differentiation between positive and negative emotional sensations. Grounded in Socioemotional Selectivity Theory (SST), we hypothesized that older vs. younger adults would exhibit heightened valence and intensity in their emotional sensations, alongside increased co-occurrence of positive and negative sensations. We presented 100 negative, 100 neutral, and 100 positive images to 67 young adults and 72 older adults. Utilizing unipolar scales enabled a nuanced analysis of emotional reactivity. Our findings revealed that older vs. younger adults overall report: 1) more positive and negative sensations, with a predominance for positive sensations, particularly when faced with positive images; 2) more intense sensations, regardless of the valence of the images; 3) more complex emotional sensations, particularly when faced with negative images. Thus, our findings validated the key principles of SST and can be seen as a manifestation of an adaptive strategy developed in older adults to promote richer, more positive emotional experiences. However, the study’s broader implications are moderated by certain limitations. The experimental sample shows a gender imbalance, with a predominance of females and a lack of racial, ethnic and socio-economic diversity in older adults. In addition, the low- to medium-intensity emotional stimuli reflect only a narrow spectrum of everyday experiences. These constraints underscore the need for future research to encompass greater demographic inclusion and a wider range of emotional stimuli to ensure the applicability of our findings to more complex populations and emotional landscapes.
From Anti-Politician Technocratism to Anti-Immigrant Nativism?
Authors: Naxera Vladimír
Published: December 2024

This article focusing on the communications of former Czech PM Andrej Babiš is a contribution to the debate on the transformation of the communications of populist actors. Using a content analysis of all Facebook communication in the profiles of Babiš and his ANO movement in the pre-election periods between 2013 and 2023, the text reveals a gradual transformation of communication. While the level of populism in communication remained relatively high throughout the decade (with a notable peak in the run-up to the 2017 parliamentary elections, after four years of government engagement), other (ideological) features accompanying populism transformed significantly. The initial technocratic, expert, and managerial rhetoric putting in contrast “bad ideological/party politicians” and “good experts and managers” was pragmatically abandoned over time and replaced by a nativist rhetoric placing in contrast “good natives” and “bad incomers,” that is, immigrants (and not immediately after the outbreak of the so-called migration crisis). In this respect, the transformation of the communication of ANO and Babiš differs from the communication of a large part of other dominant Central European populist actors.
Evaluation of the accuracy of human eye movement system identification using step test signals
Authors: Pavlenko Vitaliy D. , Lukashuk Denys K.
Published: December 2024

This study investigates nonlinear dynamic system identification methods to simulate the human eye movement system (EMS),
focusing on the accurate representation of transient characteristics derived from step test signals. Integral nonlinear models were
applied to capture the nonlinear dynamics and inertial properties of the EMS. Experimental "input-output" data were collected using
advanced eye-tracking technology, enabling the identification of multidimensional transient characteristics (MTCs) that describe the
EMS’s dynamic behavior in response to visual stimuli. The research utilized approximation and compensation methods to develop
models based on integro-power series (IPS), while the least squares method (LSM) was applied to construct integro-power
polynomial (IPP) models. The compensation method, while less computationally demanding, showed lower accuracy, making it less
applicable for tasks requiring high precision. Third-order models exhibited instability in their transient characteristics, limiting their
practical use. Second-order models, specifically quadratic IPP models developed with LSM, proved to be the most accurate and
computationally efficient. These models provided precise and consistent representations of EMS dynamics, with error rates
significantly reduced when using three test signal responses instead of two. This emphasizes the importance of sufficient data in
improving model reliability. The findings highlight the suitability of the quadratic IPP model refined with LSM for further
investigations. This model offers a robust basis for advancing research into personalized psychophysiological condition assessment
through the development of classifiers. Its accuracy and stability make it a valuable tool for exploring state classification
methodologies in healthcare, cognitive science, and related domains requiring precise dynamic system simulation
The Enactment of the Common Interest Concept and the Theory of Repressive Legal Protection on Consumer Reviews Against Defamation Claims
Authors: Kongres Evi , Kogin Kevin , Susilawati Connie
Published: December 2024

Essentially, the objective of reviews is to offer testimonials regarding the quality of product based on personal experiences, serving as a reference for potential consumers concerning the product’s attributes and quality. Businesses also leverage consumer reviews as material for product evaluation, marketing, and enhancing after-sales services. However, in practice businesses do not always receive consumer reviews favorably, particularly when these reviews result in financial losses. This is especially true when reviews are published by influencers with substantial social media followings. Consequently, businesses may initiate legal action against consumers for defamation. According to defamation provisions, acts carried out in the public interest cannot be penalized. This study addresses the legal protection of consumers against defamation lawsuits by businesses, employing the common interest concept and the theory of repressive legal protection. The aim is to analyze the application of the common interest concept and the theory of repressive legal protection concerning reviews on social media, aiming to provide new insights for law enforcement officials in handling defamation cases involving consumers and businesses. This study utilizes normative juridical methods, reviewing literature on legislation, legal concepts, and theories. The study concludes that according to the theory of repressive legal protection, businesses that violate their obligations to consumers should be sanctioned. The enactment of the common interest concept to consumer reviews requires an examination of legal evidence and facts, and if proven, should result in sanctions for businesses as a form of repressive legal protection.

Published: December 2024

Feng Shui principles have a profound impact in Asia, studies have shown that consumers often consider Feng Shui when purchasing property to arrange interior layouts. Balancing design requirements and cultural beliefs in the design process requires significant communication and calculation efforts, However, aside from repeated communication among Feng Shui experts, homeowners, and designers, there is currently a lack of efficient methods to incorporate Feng Shui into design. Therefore, this study establishes a decision model to provide layout recommendations for purchase property, design, and for existing property renovation planning. By references Feng Shui Compass School principles to assess the Feng Shui quality of dwelling interiors and considers spatial layout and area distribution rules to evaluate the feasibility of the solution. Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA) is then applied to optimize Feng Shui and design conditions in real-world case studies. The results show that the application can effectively optimize and balance Feng Shui and design conditions in a short period of time, also provides homeowners and designers with clear strategies during purchase, design, and renovation to meet the needs related to cultural beliefs.
Study on the Function and Planning of Urban River Ecological Corridor
Authors: Huang Yan , Wang Dong
Published: December 2024

This study investigates the functions and planning principles of urban river ecological corridors, highlighting their vital role in urban ecosystems. Urban rivers, which include both waterways and riparian zones, provide essential ecosystem services such as habitat provision, temperature regulation, pollutant filtration, and flood mitigation. However, rapid urbanization has led to the degradation of these corridors, resulting in habitat fragmentation, reduced biodiversity, and compromised ecological integrity. The paper reviews global efforts and strategies for urban river restoration, emphasizing the significance of ecological methods and public participation in the planning process. A case study of the Yuhangtang River in Hangzhou, China, exemplifies various restoration approaches, including traditional flood control, ecological restoration, and landscape design, all assessed using a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) framework. The findings indicate that employing the MCDM tool can facilitate planning that integrates the functions of river ecological corridors. Additionally, plans that achieve a balance of ecological, economic, social, and aesthetic benefits are more likely to gain public acceptance.

The main theoretical standson the plasticity characteristic, which is determined by the proportion of plastic deformation in the total defo stands rmation and characterizes the ability of the material to undergo plastic deformation, were developed by Profes-sor Yu. V. Milman. This article is devoted to the experimental verification of theoretical statements about the influence of structural factors on the plasticity characteristic, which can be determined from measurements of hardness (H) and during standard mechanical tests (*). The study was performed on materials with different levels of plasticity (ARMCO–Fe, aluminum alloys AMg5, 7075 and monocrystalline silicon). ARMCO-Fe and aluminum alloy 7075 have different plasticity, but in the investigated range of grain change values (ARMCO–Fe d = 20—550 μm, aluminum alloy 7075 d = = 4—60 μm), the dependence of the plasticity characteristic on d is linear. ARMCO-Fe and aluminum alloy 7075 have different plasticity, but within the investigated range of grain sizes (ARMCO-Fe: d = 20—550 µm, aluminum alloy 7075: d = 4—50 µm), the change in plasticity characteristics in regard to grain size has linear dependences. The resulting dependences of the plasticity characteristic H and * on structural factors showed that a decrease in the grain size and an increase in the density of dislocations, which increase the yield strength of the material, lead to a decrease in the plasticity characteristic. The comparison of experimental data with theoretical ideas about the influence of structural factors on the plasticity characteristic showed a satisfactory match between the theory and the experiment (which will impact to the further development of the theory of the dependence of plasticity on other structural and external factors).

Ten Reflections to Consider Before Your First Research Project
Authors: Teufel Ronald J. , Roelf Kelly , Yeboah Desiree , Hoefgen Erik
Published: December 2024

Pediatrics is an ever-evolving field, and clinicians focused on clinical care, including pediatric hospital medicine providers, are in an ideal position to develop research projects that advance evidence-based practice. However, clinical providers get pulled away from their research to deliver high-quality education and care at the bedside to children and families. The challenges of balancing these important goals are ones most faculty will face their entire career. This is most difficult for faculty taking on their first project, as they have yet to refine their research skills, learn their various institutional resources, and build a research team. The purpose of our manuscript is to offer 10 reflections to consider when developing your first research project. We intentionally focused on concepts we felt were highly relevant to first research project experiences. Our goal is to motivate talented clinicians and encourage the development of a solid project foundation to avoid the various pitfalls we have experienced.

Luces y sombras de la inteligencia artificial: ética, crimen organizado, justicia, industria cultural y minimalismo cognitivo
Authors: Fallas-Vargas Fabrizio , Morales Castro Carlos
Published: December 2024

Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar los dilemas éticos que presenta la inteligencia artificial en la sociedad contemporánea al interior del capitalismo tardío en su fase algorítmica. A través de una propuesta metodológica interdisciplinaria y un enfoque crítico basado en la categoría de sociedad administrada y la noción de psicotecnia (ambas de procedencia adorniana) se reposiciona su actualidad en el ámbito digital, así como en perspectivas éticas. También se examinan fuentes bibliográficas especializadas para comprender cómo la expansión tecnológica coexiste con el deterioro de las funciones cognitivas en los nativos digitales. Se explora el papel de la inteligencia artificial en el fortalecimiento de actividades criminales hiperconectadas y los retos que esto implica para la justicia. Además, se aborda el efecto del minimalismo cognitivo en el diseño de interfaces y experiencias de usuario en redes sociales como TikTok y se concluye que es indispensable un análisis ético crítico para equilibrar la innovación tecnológica con la protección de los derechos humanos y la justicia.

Development and validation of a novel HPLC-UV method for quantifying vitamin D forms and precursors in vegetable oils after exposure to sunlight and UV radiation
Authors: Amithabh G. S. , Kumar T. , Kumar M. P. Gireesh , Kaviya S. , Baskar B.
Published: December 2024

This study presents the development and validation of a robust HPLC-UV method for the simultaneous detection and quantification of vitamin D2, vitamin D3, ergosterol, and 7-dehydrocholesterol in a single analytical run, adhering to ICH Q2 (R1) guidelines. Application of the HPLC-UV method to six vegetable oils demonstrated inherent vitamin D content and its enhancement under different radiation conditions. Oils were exposed to direct sunlight, UVA, and UVB radiation, with UVB showing the most significant impact on vitamin D levels. Notably, UVB exposure increased vitamin D3 in castor oil from 2.82 μg mL−1 to 4.29 μg mL−1 and vitamin D2 in mustard oil from 0.73 μg mL−1 to 1.89 μg mL−1. The findings highlight the potential of UVB radiation to convert vitamin D precursors to active forms more effectively than other radiation sources. This study provides a novel approach for naturally enriching vitamin D in vegetable oils, offering a promising strategy to mitigate vitamin D deficiencies in populations with limited sun exposure or dietary restrictions. The developed HPLC-UV method and resultant insights into the radiation-induced enhancement of vitamin D content in oils contribute valuable knowledge to nutritional science.
Estimation of Divergence Times and Reconstruction of Ancestral Morphological Characters of the Genus Mimosa (Leguminosae, Caesalpinioideae)
Authors: Velázquez-Castañeda Víctor , Grether Rosaura , Arias Salvador , Martínez Mahinda
Published: December 2024

Abstract— The subfamily Caesalpiniodeae has been the subject of several recent taxonomic delimitations, placing Mimosa in what is recognized as the “Mimosa clade.” Specifically, in recent decades several phylogenetic studies have been conducted with
regard to the genus, but the estimation of the divergence times of some previously unanalyzed species was unknown and the reconstruction of ancestral morphological states to date has been limited to the mapping of characters on a phylogenetic tree. The aim of the present study was to perform
a phylogeny based on the trnD2-trnT and rpS16 cpDNA markers as well as 19 morphological characters. We use these results to estimate the divergence times for Mimosa including some species not previously analyzed. In addition, we reconstructed the ancestral states
using a chronogram for eight morphological characters: 1) leaf nectaries, 2) brachyblasts, 3) stamens, 4) staminodes, 5) type of flower, 6) type of inflorescence, 7) fruit dehiscence, and 8) fruit shape. Our results suggest that Mimosa originated in the Americas during the late Oligocene
and that the genus shows recent diversification and numerous lineages in Mexico and South America, especially after the Pliocene and up to the present. The reconstruction of ancestral states reveals the tendency of the most recently divergent species toward reduction in flower parts and in
some cases the preservation of plesiomorphic morphological character states.
Chilling Out: Cooler Climates Triggered Divergence of Sabal (Arecaceae: Coryphoideae: Sabaleae) at the End of the Mid-Miocene Climatic Optimum
Authors: Grinage Ayress D. , Tucker Lima Joanna M. , Maia Artur Campos D. , Specht Chelsea D. , Majure Lucas C.
Published: December 2024

Abstract— In this study we explore the biogeographic patterns and processes underlying the diversification of Sabal, a genus of palm with a range that expands from the tropical rainforests of northern South America into the deciduous subtropical forests of the
southeastern United States. We estimate divergence times among species of Sabal using two dated fossils as calibration points to inform ancestral reconstructions of the historical distribution of Sabal, and then use floral volatile composition data in select species of Sabal
to integrate plant ecological interactions into our discussion of species distributions. Our results suggest extant Sabal originated within the last 21 million years with a divergence event ∼14 million years ago that effectively split the most recent common ancestor of all southeastern
United States and West Indian species from the ancestor of a clade of species with their current distribution in Mexico. This divergence event corresponds with the end of the mid-Miocene climatic optimum, which resulted in cooler climates across southeastern North America where extant cold-tolerant
taxa S. minor and S. palmetto are currently distributed. Floral volatile data indicate a generalist pollination strategy involving day foraging insects. Among sampled species, floral scent profiles can mostly be characterized by quantitative differences in five main compounds:
benzaldehyde, benzyl alcohol, 2-phenylethanol, (E)-β-ocimene, and hexanal. These profiles align with major clades recovered in our phylogenetic analysis of Sabal and are indicative of evolutionary trends in pollination ecology and reproductive isolation within the genus.
Phylogenetics, Taxonomy, and Chromosome Number Analysis of Sanvitalia (Asteraceae-Heliantheae-Zinniinae)
Authors: Skibicki Samuel V. , Ayers Tina J. , Scott Randall W. , Barrett Craig F.
Published: December 2024

Abstract— Sanvitalia (Asteraceae), a New World endemic, is poorly understood from a phylogenetic perspective. While chromosome number variation is well documented for the genus, previous studies lack a phylogenetic context for chromosome number evolution, with
one species, S. fruticosa, lacking a published chromosome count. We collected molecular sequence data from the nuclear ribosomal ITS region and three plastid loci from multiple individuals of each species of Sanvitalia and additional members of the Zinniinae to create phylogenetic
trees and study the evolutionary history of the clade. A complete taxonomic treatment was produced as well as a dichotomous key to species. The first chromosome count for S. fruticosa was rendered (2n = 16) and a chromosome number analysis was completed using maximum likelihood
methods that account for different modes of chromosome number change. Support for two separate whole genome duplication events in the genus is presented here. This study resulted in deeper understanding of the relationships within Sanvitalia and closely related genera, chromosome number
evolution and genome duplication in Zinniinae, and the closest relative (S. ocymoides) of the enigmatic and amphiequatorial disjunct S. versicolor. We also provide support for the prior transfer of S. tenuis to Zinnia, and two new sections within Sanvitalia.
A methodology for improved predictions of surface ground movements around shafts
Authors: Taborda David M. G. , Pedro Antonio M. G. , Xia Helen , Hardy Stuart
Published: December 2024

Shafts are typically employed in urban environments to provide access or ventilation to underground structures such as stations, railways or highways. The choice of design is determined, among other things, by the need to control settlements at the surface, often estimated during early design stages using empirical expressions. These have been shown to have limited accuracy, failing to account appropriately for the effect of shaft diameter on the ground movements associated with shaft excavation. This paper reviews empirical expressions available in the literature in the context of a large database of settlements induced by shaft excavation in London. A comprehensive set of detailed numerical analyses is performed to enable the development of a new set of expressions capable of predicting accurately the computed vertical and horizontal ground movements at the surface. The new expressions are shown to provide better predictions of the observed field data than predictive expressions available in the literature, establishing a new benchmark against which future proposals can be assessed.

Authors: Xie Z. , Lü X. , Zhang Y. , Liu X. , Shao Y. , Ma Y. , Zhang Z.
Published: December 2024

The use of tunnel spoil as subgrade filler can save resources and promote the sustainable and low-carbon development of transportation infrastructure. To investigate the mechanical properties evolution law of tunnel spoil as subgrade filler, SEM and large-scale triaxial tests were conducted to analyze its macroscopic and microscopic characteristics, and particle breakage behavior. The study focuses on the impact of geogrid on the shear strength, deformation, and particle breakage of tunnel spoil and its working mechanism. The results indicate that an increase in soft rock content reduces the shear strength and weakens its shear induced dilatancy. The average peak shear strength of tested geogrid reinforced dense specimens can be increased by 10%, and the residual shear strength can be increased by about 30%. The relative breakage index increases in an S-shaped pattern with increase in soft rock content. Higher confining pressure and soft rock content lead to more particle breakage, however, particle breakage in the reinforced specimens can be significantly reduced. The research findings contribute to the enhanced design and implementation of waste material repurposing, thereby advancing the sustainable development of traffic infrastructure.
The interference effect of low-relevant animated elements on digital picture-book comprehension in preschoolers: An eye-movement study
Authors: Liu Nina , Chen Chen , Liu Yingying , Jiang Shan , Gao QianCheng , Wu Ruihan
Published: December 2024

Digital picture-book (DPB) with animated elements can enhance children’s engagement, but irrelevant animations may interfere with their comprehension. To determine the effect of the relevance of animated elements on preschoolers’ comprehension, an experimental study was conducted. Thirty-three preschoolers between the aged 4-5 years engaged with DPB in three conditions: high- and low-relevant animations and a static control while listening to the story; their eye movements were recorded simultaneously. The study found that preschoolers had lower comprehension when exposed to low-relevant animation, but had comparable scores to the static condition with high-relevant animation. The results of eye-movement analysis showed that children who focused less on high-relevant or more on low-relevant elements had poorer comprehension. Those exposed to low-relevant animations looked less at high-relevant elements and more at low-relevant elements than those in the static and high-relevant conditions. These results suggested that low-relevant animations in DPB interfered with children’s comprehension by directing their visual attention away from crucial, high-relevant elements and more to less relevant elements. Therefore, designers creating DPBs, as well as parents and caregivers selecting DPBs for children, should consider the importance of the relevance of animated elements. And the corresponding mechanism of animation effect in DPB comprehension was discussed.
Baryatinskiy Ailesinin Türkistan’a Şifa Seyahati ve Mariya Baryatinskaya’nın Taşkent Notları (1910-1911)
Authors: Özkan Murat
Published: December 2024

Gezi notları ya da seyahatnameler başka bir coğrafya ve kültüre mensup kişilerin yolculuk serüvenlerini, gittikleri ülkelerde gördükleri manzaraları, karşılaştıkları ilginç olayları, halkın gündelik hayatı ile iktisadi-toplumsal ilişkilerini, bunlara dair kişisel gözlem ve intibalarını şahsi duygu ve düşünceleriyle tasvir ettikleri bir yazın türüdür. Bu yönüyle tarih araştırmalarında birinci derecede olmasa da ötekinin dışarıdan nasıl görüldüğünün anlaşılması bakımından, abartılı ifadeler, kişisel değerlendirmeler ve bazen de verdikleri bilgi hatalarına rağmen tarihçiler tarafından dikkate alınması gereken kaynaklar arasında yer alır. Bu bağlamda kökleri Rurik hanedanından gelen Baryatinskiy ailesine mensup Anatoliy Vladimiroviç Baryatinskiy’in eşi Mariya Sergeyevna Baryatinskaya’nın 1910 yılında gerçekleştirdiği Türkistan seyahati Rusların gözünden Türkistan’ı anlamamıza yardımcı olacaktır. Baryatinskaya daha önce hiç görmediği manzaralarla Türkistan’da karşılaşır ve bunları notlarına yansıtır. Baryatinskaya’nın gözünden XX. yüzyıl Taşkent’ini anlattığımız bu çalışmaya beş önemli metin kaynaklık etmektedir. Bunlardan ilki çalışmanın temelini oluşturan 1910-1911 yılında Taşkent ve civarını gezen Baryatinskaya’nın Moya Russkaya Jizn. Vospominaniya Velikosvetskoy Damı. 1870-1918 başlığı altında Rusça yayımlanan seyahat günlüğüdür. Diğerleri ise Rusların 1797’de bölgeye yolladığı ilk elçi Dmitriy Telyatnikov, yine Ruslar tarafından Taşkent hâkimi Yunus Hoca’ya 1800 yılında gönderilen maden mühendisi Timofey Stepanoviç Burnaşev, 1873’te bölgeyi ziyaret eden Amerikalı gezgin Eugene Schuyler ve son olarak Baryatinskaya’nın seyahat ettiği döneme en yakın tarihlerde, 1904 yılında Ruslar tarafından Taşkent’e gönderilen arkeolog Joseph Antoine Castagne’nin Taşkent gözlemlerine yer verdiği eserlerdir. Böylece Baryatinskaya’nın verdiği bilgilerin doğruluğu sorgulanabilir ve Taşkent’e dair aktarılanlar kanıtlanabilir olmuştur. Baryatinskaya’nın bilgileriyle mukayese yapılması amacıyla belirlenen bu seyyahların eserlerinin çalışmaya hem eş zamanlı hem de art zamanlı bilgi sağlayacağı düşünülmüştür. Bu vesileyle Taşkent’in Rus işgalinden sonra yaşadığı değişim-dönüşüm gözler önüne serilmiştir.

Se empleó una metodología cualitativa que incluye entrevistas en profundidad aplicadas a docentes, quienes narraron su visión de las familias. Se encontró que las familias tienen una valoración instrumental del bachillerato, fincada en la expectativa de que sus hijas e hijos tengan una vida mejor. Asimismo, tienen una valoración expresiva, que se manifiesta en el orgullo y satisfacción de que sus hijas e hijos estudien el bachillerato y que su localidad cuente con un plantel. Otro hallazgo es que las familias no pueden apoyar a sus hijas e hijos en las tareas académicas debido a su baja escolaridad. Además, tienen dificultades para cubrir los gastos educativos que demanda la educación; no obstante, brindan apoyo emocional y participan en las actividades para el mejoramiento del plantel. Las y los docentes reconocen los esfuerzos de las familias, aunque desearían un mayor seguimiento y supervisión a las tareas académicas de sus hijas e hijos.
Alternatif Seçim Sistemi Parametrelerinde Temsilde Adalet Değerlendirmesi: 14 Mayıs 2023 Genel Seçimleri Örneği
Authors: Yürük Seyfullah , Göksel Türkmen
Published: December 2024

Bu çalışma, Türkiye'de kullanılan nispi temsil sisteminin temsilde adaleti ne ölçüde sağladığını incelemektedir. Çalışmanın ilk aşamasında, 2023 genel seçimlerinde kullanılan d'Hondt yönteminin yanı sıra, Sainte-Laguë, İskandinav tipi Sainte-Laguë, Hare ve Droop olmak üzere dört farklı sandalye dağıtım yöntemi kullanılarak seçim sonuçları simüle edilmiştir. İkinci aşamada ise, seçim çevresi büyüklüğünün temsilde adalete etkisi incelenmiştir. Bu amaçla, mevcut seçim çevresi büyüklüğüne ek olarak, Daraltılmış-5, Daraltılmış-7, İBBS-1 ve İBBS-2 olmak üzere dört farklı senaryo oluşturulmuştur. Her iki aşamanın değerlendirilmesine orantısızlık endeksleri kullanılmıştır. Türkiye'de mevcut sistemin temsilde adaleti sağlamada yetersiz kaldığı sonucuna varıldıktan sonra, mevcut yöntemin daha adil yöntemlerle değiştirilmesi veya seçim çevrelerinin genişletilmesi gibi alternatifler önerilmiştir.

Bu çalışma, 18-25 yaş arası Suriyeli göçmenlerin sosyo-kültürel entegrasyon süreçlerinin anlaşılmasını amaçlamıştır. Katılımcılar, en az 5 yıldır Türkiye’de yaşamış ve iyi düzeyde Türkçe konuşan bireylerdir. Araştırmanın verileri nitel araştırma yöntemiyle 15 kadın, 15 erkek katılımcı ile derinlemesine görüşmelerle elde edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, ergenliklerini Türkiye’de geçiren göçmenlerin kimlik oluşumu döneminde hem Türk hem de Suriye kültürünü deneyimledikleri gözlemlenmiş ve buna bağlı olarak kimlik aidiyetlerinin gelişimi ile içinde bulundukları sosyo-kültürel ortam arasında bir ilişkinin var olduğu açığa çıkmıştır. Gençlerin iki kültürü deneyimlemeleri nedeniyle çokkültürlü toplum konusunda olumlu bir bakış açısına sahip oldukları ve sosyokültürel faaliyetlere katılım düzeylerine olumlu katkı sağladığı sonucuna varılmıştır.
Evaluation of Efficiency in Turkish Tax Audit System after Structural Reform via Window Analysis
Authors: Doğan Hamza
Published: December 2024

This study evaluates the efficiency of the tax audit system in Türkiye after the structural reform using window analysis. The efficiency level of the system from 2011 to 2022 is calculated with input variables (number of audit staff and active taxpayers) and output variables (number of taxpayers audited and collection/accrual ratio). The results show that the system was efficient in 2011-2015 but declined in 2016-2022. Despite more audit personnel, the collection/accrual ratio did not improve. The study suggests ways to increase the system’s efficiency and provides insights for future research.

Toplum 5.0’da Toplumsal İktidarın Yeniden İnşası: Foucaultcu Bir Yaklaşım
Authors: Evren Fuat Boğaç
Published: December 2024

Toplum 5.0 yapay zekâ, akıllı sistemler ve robotlar gibi yüksek teknolojilerin hayatın her alanına nüfus etmesinin amaçlandığı yeni bir toplumsal paradigmadır. Toplum 5.0’la birlikte yüksek teknolojiyi üreten şirketlerin yalnızca üretici rolüyle sınırlı kalmayıp aynı zamanda kullanıcı verilerine erişebilmesi ve bu verilerin mülkiyetine sahip olması endişe uyandıran bir konudur. Bu çalışma da toplum 5.0’la birlikte veri mülkiyeti ile iktidar yapıları arasında yeni bir ilişki biçiminin ortaya çıkacağı hipotezinden hareketle Michel Foucault'un iktidar kavramına ilişkin teorilerinden yola çıkarak veri mülkiyetinin toplumsal iktidar üzerindeki olası etkilerini tartışmaktadır. Çalışmanın vardığı sonuçlar toplum 5.0 çağında veri mülkiyetinin Foucault'un biyoiktidar biçimine denk düştüğünü ortaya koymuştur.

The red cell distribution width (RDW)/albumin ratio (RAR) is an inflammation-based prognostic biomarker. To date, its prognostic value in patients with pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE) has been investigated in only one study. This study aimed to assess the effect of RAR on mortality in patients with PTE. Patients admitted for PTE between 2017 and 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. The data collected included demographic information, comorbidities, clinical findings, RDW, albumin, troponin, D-dimer levels, and in-hospital and 30-day mortality outcomes. RAR was calculated by dividing the RDW by albumin. A total of 190 patients were included in the study, of whom 83 (43.7%) were male. The mean age was 63 years (range: 23–89), and the mean RAR was 4.48% ± 1.68% /g/dL. A positive correlation was observed between RAR and both age and troponin level, whereas inverse correlations were noted with systolic blood pressure (sBP), diastolic blood pressure (dBP), and oxygen saturation (SpO2). Using a cutoff value of 5.294 determined by ROC analysis, patients with RAR ≥ 5.294 had a significantly shorter mean survival time than those with RAR value < 5.294 (16.310 months vs 35.163 months; log-rank test, P < 0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified malignancy (hazard ratio [HR], 4.213; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.103–16.090; P = 0.035) and RAR (HR: 1.295, 95% CI: 1.035–1.621, P = 0.024) as independent predictors of survival. In conclusion, an RAR value ≥ 5.294 was associated with significantly shorter survival, underscoring its potential utility as a prognostic marker in clinical practice for non-massive PTE.
