Authors: Daniel Ibarra Edwin , López Portillo Armando , Lugo García Juan Antonio , Hernández León Omar
Published: July 2024

Introduction: Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a global problem; Due to its great variability, each hospital should carry out its own microbiological surveillance.
Objective: To identify changes in bacterial resistance in urine cultures with Gram-negative isolation from the urology department over a decade.
Material and methods: Analytical, retrospective cross-sectional study, 1072 urine cultures requested by the urology department of Hospital Juárez de México were collected between 6/01/2012 and 5/31/2022. The percentage of resistance by germ and antibiotic was divided into three periods: initial, intermediate and final to compare with X2 trends. According to the sensitivity report, high resistance >16 and high sensitivity ≤2 were defined.
Statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS V.25 software and Epi Info Companion V.5.5.10 software.
Results: For a decade, the urology service of Hospital Juárez de México has a total of 1072 records in the database, initial date 6/01/2012 and end date 06/01/2022. The most frequent germs were Escherichia coli 709 (66 %), Klebsiella pneumoniae 61 (6 %) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa 56 (5 %). The majority of antibiotics showed persistence in the percentage of resistance. Amoxicillin with clavulanate had a significant decrease (X2 Tend=13.17, p=0.0003). Cefepime (X2 Tend=4.84, p=0.027) and amikacin (X2 Tend=5.76, p=0.016) had a slight significant increase. Cefazolin (X2 Tend=5.00, p=0.025), Levofloxacin (X2 Tend=7.81, p=0.005), Ceftazidime (X2 Tend=3.74, p=0.05) significantly increased the percentage of resistance.
Conclusion: Dividing the patterns of bacterial resistance by uropathogens, family of antibiotics, levels of resistance and sensitivity, improves knowledge and favors a better selection of treatments in the population attended by the urology service of the Hospital Juárez de México.

Authors: Dantas Maria Ivone Oliveira , Carneiro Narel Moita , Abib Suellen
Published: July 2024

IntroductionMigraine is a debilitating neurological disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of severe headaches, often accompanied by nausea and other autonomic symptoms. It affects a significant portion of the global population, with estimates suggesting a prevalence of approximately 58.2%. Beyond the immediate pain and discomfort, migraine can have a substantial impact on quality of life and productivity. Lifestyle medicine, which emphasizes the power of modifiable lifestyle factors to prevent, manage, and potentially reverse chronic diseases, offers a promising approach to migraine management.ObjectiveThis narrative review aims to map recent findings on the potential of lifestyle medicine pillars as effective strategies for managing migraine.MethodsA comprehensive narrative review was conducted using the PubMed database. Articles published within the past 10 years that investigate the intersection of migraine and lifestyle medicine were included.ResultsInterventions such as diet, physical exercise, stress management, sleep quality, healthy relationships, and cessation of alcohol and smoking can reduce the frequency and severity of attacks.ConclusionThis review highlights the potential of lifestyle medicine strategies to improve the management of migraine. By integrating interventions focused on diet, physical activity, stress management, sleep hygiene, healthy relationships, and substance cessation, migraine sufferers may experience a significant reduction in attack frequency and severity, ultimately leading to an enhanced quality of life.
Interpreting referential noun phrases in belief reports – the de re/de dicto competition
Authors: Zhang Yuhan , Davidson Kathryn
Published: July 2024

The de re/de dicto ambiguity centers on the referential and/or attributive properties of noun phrases within the scope of intentional operators, such as belief reports. For instance, in the belief report "Julie believes Elizabeth’s poem will win the competition," a de re reading of the embedded referential noun phrase "Elizabeth’s poem" entails that the referential association between this noun phrase and the target poem is true from the speaker's perspective but may not be recognized as such in the belief holder’s (i.e., Julie’s) mind. In contrast, a de dicto reading describes Julie’s beliefs as she understands the referential association in her mind. While both de re and de dicto readings of definite noun phrases are considered acceptable, given different supporting contexts, we show that the acceptability of de re readings is vulnerable to contextual and pragmatic manipulations. One such case involves a context in which the belief holder, Julie, holds a mistaken belief about the identity of the poem, such as thinking that it was written by Nicole when, in reality, it was written by Elizabeth. This mistaken identity context introduces a de dicto reading of a competing noun phrase, "Nicole’s poem," in "Julie believes Nicole’s poem will win the competition." In this context, the speaker-oriented de re reading of "Elizabeth’s poem" has a roughly bimodal acceptability distribution, while the de dicto noun phrase was overall preferred. Our study is the first to systematically lay out the empirical landscape of de re/de dicto readings of definite noun phrases and highlights the vulnerability of the de re reading. This investigation solidifies the foundation for further theory development and endorses the practice of collecting reliable empirical judgment data for nuanced semantic phenomena.
Covariation in processing: grammar vs. context
Authors: Lakhani Nikhil Vipul , Schwarz Florian
Published: July 2024

In addition to referential uses, pronouns can have covarying interpretations, i.e., exhibit the behavior of a bound variable. The grammatical mechanism(s) behind such readings have been subject to longstanding debates: Some authors argue for a fairly flexible but unified semantic mechanism that is not tied closely to syntactic configurations. Others distinguish a core class of bona fidebinding with tight syntactic constraints from other mechanisms that give rise to ultimately parallel effects, but do so more indirectly. Psycholinguistic work has started to uncover the processing mechanisms involved in evaluating dependencies between covarying pronouns and (candidate) antecedents. Moulton and Han (2018) leverage the processing perspective to try to shed light on the theoretical question of what grammatical mechanism is at play for a given covarying pronoun. They argue that so-called Gender Mismatch Effects only arise for cases of bona fide binding, supporting the existence of distinct grammatical mechanisms. However, Kush and Eik (2019), looking at another construction involving the relevant other covariation mechanisms, do find Gender Mismatch Effects. These authors suggest that various contextual factors can make a covarying interpretation harder to obtain, and they propose adjustments to Moulton and Han’s stimuli that they think should lead to fast Gender Mismatch Effects even when no bona fide binding is involved. A series of self-paced reading experiments replicate the results from Moulton and Han, and then extend the paradigm to variations along the lines suggested by Kush and Eik. The adjustment of contextual factors indeed results in Gender Mismatch Effects for both environments. We discuss how the processing evidence informs the theoretical issues.  
The Mediating Role of Trust in Purchasing Intention

Published: July 2024

Generation Z is defined as those born between 1997 and 2012 who have grown up in the digital era. This has had a significant impact on their thinking and behavior, especially in the realm of beauty. Generation Z, born in the digital era, possesses distinct characteristics that set them apart from other generations. Notably, they have a strong preference for purchasing beauty items, with a significant portion of their income allocated to this expenditure. The aim of this study is to determine the function of trust as a mediator in the correlation between purchase intention and cosmetic products among persons who are part of Generation Z. The survey includes individuals from Generation Z in Batam City who possess a comprehensive knowledge of beauty products. The results of this study suggest that trust and social influence are significant factors in determining purchase intention; however, price does not have any impact on purchase intention. Furthermore, the inclination to make a purchase remains unaffected by the accuracy or reliability of the information. However, when we consider trust as a mediating factor, the quality of information directly influences the willingness to engage in a transaction. Furthermore, social influence directly influences the propensity to purchase, with trust playing a more substantial role. Trust does not act as an intermediary between an individual's perceived value and their intention to make a purchase.

The development and operation of an oil field is accompanied by an oil spill and the formation of oil-contaminated soils. The process of natural restoration of oil-contaminated soils is extremely slow. Therefore, among environmental protection measures, the rationing of oil content in soils is extremely important. The purpose of the work is to develop a standard for the maximum permissible concentration of oil in the soil for the industrial zone of the Uzen field.Methods. The basis for the development of the maximum permissible concentration of oil in the soils of the studied field is the "Methodological recommendations for the hygienic justification of the maximum permissible concentration of chemicals in the soil". The determination of the mass fraction of oil in the studied media was performed by gas-liquid chromatography. The chemical composition of the soil was determined by atomic absorption spectrometry. The determination of the specific activity of radionuclides was carried out by gamma-spectrometric method on the «MKS 01A Multirad» spectrometer. Results and discussion. During the work for the field, in accordance with the requirements for substantiating the maximum permissible concentration, an assessment was made on the physico-chemical and biological properties of soils and oils. Based on the experimental data obtained, the maximum permissible concentration of oil in the soil of the industrial zone of the Uzen field at the level of 3 g/kg is justified and reflects the real conditions in which oil intake in the soil will not cause harmful effects on human health and the environment.

One of the main reasons for premature destruction of road surfaces is the poor quality of road bitumen. An effective way to improve the quality of a bitumen binder is to modify it with polymer or surface-active additives. The goal is to determine the effect of the concentration of modifiers on surface tension in binary "bitumen-surfactant", "bitumen-polymer" and triple "bitumen-surfactant-polymer" systems. The methodology of the work included measuring the surface tension of modified bitumen systems depending on the quantitative content of additives in bitumen. Results and discussion: As follows from the analysis of the data obtained, in bitumen systems with a limited concentration of polymer AG-4I (C≤1 g/dm3), the effect of reducing surface energy at the interface with air is achieved by concentrating surfactants in the surface layer, which are part of the structure of the bitumen itself. The extreme nature of the change in surface tension was also recorded in AC-2 bitumen compositions. Conclusion: In the "bitumen-AG-4I-AS-2" triple systems, the change in the specific surface energy at the "liquid-gas" interface is not an additive value, taking into account the separate contribution of AG-4I and AS-2. The concentration threshold of additives to achieve a minimum surface tension varies in comparison with binary compositions. With the combined administration of AG-4I (C=1g/dm3) and AC-2 (C=1g/dm3), the surface tension decreased by 9.30 mN/m compared with unmodified bitumen.

The article offers a new solution to the scientific task – improvement of the already existing and development of the new provisions on economic assessment and regulation of the mechanisms on investments attraction to the company. In the course of the research, one improved the method of determining the viability of regulation of the mechanisms of the investments attraction to the enterprise; through the use of which, one can hold an analysis of the dependence of the bounding change in the volume of attracted investments for a certain mechanism on simultaneously the bounding change in duration and the cost of its use. The use of this method enables the possibility to determine whether the enterprise will be able to timely attract the planned volume of investments. The improved mathematical instrumentarium on determining the viability of regulation of the investments attraction mechanisms grounds on the formation of the power function of the dependence of the attracted investments volume on duration and cost of the investments attraction process. This function forms a figure in three-dimensional space, based on the volume change of which, it is possible to determine the dependence of the change in the volume of investments that the enterprise attracted on the cost of time and costs needed for the implementation of this process. The obtaining of power coefficients was carried out in two ways: the method of iterations and the method of achievements of Lagrange. The improved method of determining the viability of regulation of the investments attraction mechanisms can be used by employees of the analytical departments at the enterprises as well as by managers, maintaining investments activities. This method is implemented during the process of investments attraction and makes it possible, at early stages, to identify the shortcomings of the mechanisms, used by the recipient enterprise.

Profit is one of the indicators used to assess company management performance. Management tends to carry out earnings management when there is a decline in profits compared to the previous period. This study analyzes earnings management to avoid decreasing profits based on director type (professional-director and owner-director) in companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange in 2017 - 2022. This research uses secondary data, namely financial statements and annual reports of companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange. The sample in this study was 541 companies. The samples were analyzed using two earnings management measurements, namely accrual management (discretionary accruals adjusted for performance) and real activities management (abnormal operating cash flow). The sample was divided into two groups based on director type to analyze earnings management to avoid decreasing profits for each group. The results show that all directors types carry out earnings management. Companies managed by owner-directors tend to manage discretionary accruals to avoid profits decline. Meanwhile, companies led by professional-directors tend to manage earnings by performing real activities management.

PROJECT ARCHETYPES OF THE EUROPEAN RESEARCH AREA: EXPLORING THE OCCASIONAL ENGAGEMENT PATTERNS OF THE EUROPEAN SOUTHERN NEIGHBOURHOOD
Authors: Šime Zane
Published: July 2024

This paper examines the project-based pattern of European Southern Neighbourhood engagement in the European Research Area. Thereby, this study informs about the role of the European Research Area in advancing EU objectives and ambitions in the enduringly salient European Neighbourhood Policy context. The research question that drives this study is: What project archetypes’ pattern denotes the European Southern Neighbourhood’s participation in the pan-European space intended to facilitate the free flow of talent and ideas? The guiding hypothesis anticipates that the prevailing archetype corresponds to an encounter lasting for one project, and prolonged engagement throughout several consecutive projects is a rarity. This enquiry into the relationality weaved by research collaboration formulates four archetypes. The main empirical material employed to model and study the four archetypes is semi-structured interviews with Europe-based project managers. Insights offered by the leading figures of projects funded by Framework Programme 7 and Horizon 2020 reveal how multilateral research-driven ties contribute to post-Westphalian external action aspirations. Devised analytic narratives attest to the performances of the EU science diplomacy, for example, in the form of technoscientific gifts as well as sharing and jointly developing kn/own/ables. Expert experiences of co-developing research-intensive solutions with Morocco- and Tunisia-based colleagues to address the most pressing challenges faced by the EU and its Southern neighbours are resourceful. They offer new insights into the patterned routines that support the implementation of such supranationally steered governance frameworks as the European Research Area, including its external action and science diplomacy dimensions. Almost half of the studied projects correspond to the archetype with one EU-funded project interaction. This confirms the rather sporadic or ad hoc relational ties of the European Southern Neighbourhood to the European Research Area, facilitated by various Europe-based competence centres.

O descarte inadequado de medicamentos no Brasil é um problema significativo, afetando tanto o meio ambiente quanto a saúde pública. A falta de orientação e conscientização da população contribui para essa situação preocupante. A Política Nacional de Resíduos Sólidos estabelece diretrizes importantes, mas a falta de informação e a cultura de automedicação resultam em descarte inadequado, tanto em residências quanto em estabelecimentos de saúde.A conscientização sobre os danos do descarte inadequado e os métodos corretos é crucial. Campanhas de conscientização, instruções nos rótulos dos medicamentos e programas de devolução podem promover práticas mais seguras e sustentáveis. O papel dos farmacêuticos é vital, pois devem orientar os pacientes. No entanto, eles precisam de treinamento adequado e acesso a informações atualizadas.A educação ambiental desde a infância até o ensino superior é essencial para sensibilizar a população. Essas ações visam reduzir os impactos negativos do descarte inadequado e promover uma cultura de uso responsável e sustentável de medicamentos.

Abstract. Non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOC), serving as crucial precursors of O3, have a significant impact on atmospheric oxidative capacity and O3 formation. However, both anthropogenic and biogenic NMVOC emissions remain subject to considerable uncertainty. Here, we extended the Regional multi-Air Pollutant Assimilation System (RAPAS) using the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) algorithm to optimize NMVOC emissions in China in August 2022 by assimilating TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) HCHO retrievals. We also simultaneously optimize NOx emissions by assimilating in situ NO2 observations to address the chemical feedback among VOCs–NOx–O3. Furthermore, a process-based analysis was employed to quantify the impact of NMVOC emission changes on various chemical reactions related to O3 formation and depletion. NMVOC emissions exhibited a substantial reduction of 50.2 %, especially in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, revealing a prior overestimation of biogenic NMVOC emissions due to an extreme heat wave. Compared to the forecast with prior NMVOC emissions, the forecast with posterior emissions significantly improved HCHO simulations, reducing biases by 75.7 %, indicating a notable decrease in posterior emission uncertainties. The forecast with posterior emissions also effectively corrected the overestimation of O3 in forecasts with prior emissions, reducing biases by 49.3 %. This can be primarily attributed to a significant decrease in the RO2+NO reaction rate and an increase in the NO2+OH reaction rate in the afternoon, thus limiting O3 generation. Sensitivity analyses emphasized the necessity of considering both NMVOC and NOx emissions for a comprehensive assessment of O3 chemistry. This study enhances our understanding of the effects of NMVOC emissions on O3 production and can contribute to the development of effective emission reduction policies.

Abstract. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) significantly impact human health due to their persistence, toxicity, and potential carcinogenicity. Their global distribution and regional changes caused by emission changes, especially over areas in developing countries, remain to be understood along with their health impacts. This study implemented a PAH module in the global-regional nested Atmospheric Aerosol and Chemistry Model (IAP-AACM) to investigate the global distribution of PAHs and the change in their health risks from 2013 to 2018 in China. An evaluation against observations showed that the model could capture well the spatial distribution and seasonal variation of Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), the typical indicator species of PAHs. At a global scale, the annual mean concentrations are highest in China, followed by Europe and India, with high values exceeding the target values of 1 ng m-3 over some areas. Compared with 2013, the concentration of BaP in China decreased in 2018 due to emission reductions, whereas it increased in India and Southern Africa. However, the decline is much smaller than for PM2.5 during the same period. The concentration of BaP decreased by 8.5 % in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) and 9.4 % in the Yangtze River Delta (YRD). It even increased over areas in the Sichuan Basin due to changes in meteorological conditions. The total incremental lifetime cancer risk (ILCR) posed by BaP only showed a slight decrease in 2018 and the population in East China still faced significant potential health risks. The results indicate that strict additional control measures should be taken to reduce the pollution and health risks of PAHs effectively. The study also highlights the importance of considering changes in meteorological conditions when evaluating emission changes from concentration monitoring.

Abstract. The rapid changes occurring in the polar regions require an improved understanding of the processes that are driving these changes. At the same time, increased human activities such as marine navigation, resource exploitation, aviation, commercial fishing, and tourism require reliable and relevant weather information. One of the primary goals of the World Meteorological Organization's Year of Polar Prediction (YOPP) project is to improve the accuracy of numerical weather prediction (NWP) at high latitudes. During YOPP, two Canadian “supersites” were commissioned and equipped with new ground-based instruments for enhanced meteorological and system process observations. Additional pre-existing supersites in Canada, the United States, Norway, Finland, and Russia also provided data from ongoing long-term observing programs. These supersites collected a wealth of observations that are well suited to address YOPP objectives. In order to increase data useability and station interoperability, novel Merged Observatory Data Files (MODFs) were created for the seven supersites over two Special Observing Periods (February to March 2018 and July to September 2018). All observations collected at the supersites were compiled into this standardized NetCDF MODF format, simplifying the process of conducting pan-Arctic NWP verification and process evaluation studies. This paper describes the seven Arctic YOPP supersites, their instrumentation, data collection and processing methods, the novel MODF format, and examples of the observations contained therein. MODFs comprise the observational contribution to the model intercomparison effort, termed YOPP site Model Intercomparison Project (YOPPsiteMIP). All YOPPsiteMIP MODFs are publicly accessible via the YOPP Data Portal (Whitehorse: https://doi.org/10.21343/a33e-j150, Huang et al., 2023a; Iqaluit: https://doi.org/10.21343/yrnf-ck57, Huang et al., 2023b; Sodankylä: https://doi.org/10.21343/m16p-pq17, O'Connor, 2023; Utqiaġvik: https://doi.org/10.21343/a2dx-nq55, Akish and Morris, 2023c; Tiksi: https://doi.org/10.21343/5bwn-w881, Akish and Morris, 2023b; Ny-Ålesund: https://doi.org/10.21343/y89m-6393, Holt, 2023; and Eureka: https://doi.org/10.21343/r85j-tc61, Akish and Morris, 2023a), which is hosted by MET Norway, with corresponding output from NWP models.
