Sunspot Prediction Based on The Adaptive ARIMA Model
Authors: Zhao Heng , Chen Hao , Qian Linhao
Published: June 2024

The sun is closely related to human beings, and any change in its activities may have a huge impact on human beings. The study and prediction of solar activities is particularly important for the survival and development of human beings. Humans often learn about solar activity by studying sunspots. In this paper, the study predicts the start time, end time, sunspot number, and area size of the next sunspot. In this paper, we predict the length and sunspot number and area of the next solar activity cycle based on the ARIMA time series model, the BP neural network model, and the trend model. In this paper, the ARIMA-BP neural network hybrid model is predicted that the next sunspot start time is 2031 and the end time is 2042. The trend model, the number of time and sunspot, predicts that the number of the next sunspot is 12462.58 and the area is 1640.68.
Bayesian Optimization and Monte Carlo Simulation in Technology Sector Portfolio Allocation: A Comparative Analysis Using the Sharpe Ratio
Authors: Hu Xinyu
Published: June 2024

In the dynamic landscape of financial markets, the pivotal role of adept portfolio construction is more prominent than ever. By enabling investors to form combinations of assets, it not only aids in accomplishing specified investment objectives but also in diversifying potential risks. This process employs a systematic investment approach, fostering informed and judicious decision-making strategies in the financial domain. This research seeks to explore the application of Bayesian statistics in parameter estimation and portfolio optimization, particularly focusing on the volatility of the technology sector. Utilizing a conjugate prior to obtaining the posterior and employing Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) to calculate the expected return and covariance matrix, the study constructed portfolio weights based on Mean-Variance Optimization. This portfolio was then compared with weights derived from historical data analysis and a Monte Carlo simulation optimized by the Sharpe ratio. Remarkably, upon empirical testing on an out-of-sample dataset, the Bayesian approach exhibited a superior performance, showcasing robust resilience to potential risks. The study also acknowledges several limitations, suggesting directions for future research to refine the precision and reliability of portfolio optimization in the face of market volatility.

Analysis of Accident Insurance for Middle-aged and Older Adults in China Through Case Comparison
Authors: Luk Qing Lin
Published: June 2024

Accident protection for middle-aged and older adults is an important topic that people focus on, and accident insurance for middle-aged and older adults has gradually aroused people's interest. In the United States, Japan, and many countries, due to their maturity in the insurance industry, the insurance portfolio and process of accident insurance has become complete. However, in mainland China, accident insurance for middle-aged and older adults is still a relatively unpopular field, and most insurance companies have not invested in this area. This article lists three middle-aged and older adults accident insurance products from three different insurance companies to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of these products from the perspective of consumers through comparative analysis, put forward the possible reasons for the lack of investment in accident insurance for middle-aged and older adults in the mainland of China. The article finds that Chinese mainland insurance companies in the field of accident insurance for middle-aged and older adults have certain gaps due to factors such as excessive risk, immature development of the insurance industry, and lack of detailed division of risk situations. In addition, this article tries to put forward strategies to improve accident insurance for middle-aged and older adults. The purpose of this topic is to hope that domestic insurance companies and policyholders can pay more attention to the field of accident protection for middle-aged and older adults, carry out rational improvements, and enhance insurance services for consumers while improving the profits of insurance companies to achieve a win-win situation.

Introduction: Several discoveries have accumulated evidence regarding gut microbiota, regenerative nutrition, and skeletal muscle metabolism. Exercise volume and intensity have been shown to influence gastrointestinal health status, including the role of growth factors, signaling pathways, oxidative stress, metabolic factors, irisin, and microRNAs. Objective: To present, through a systematic review, the main approaches and outcomes of clinical studies of the gut microbiota and skeletal muscle axis in sports performance through the nutritional activation of irisin and microRNAs. Methods: The PRISMA Platform systematic review rules were followed. The research was carried out from January to April 2024 in the Scopus, PubMed, Science Direct, Scielo, and Google Scholar databases. The quality of the studies was based on the GRADE instrument and the risk of bias was analyzed according to the Cochrane instrument. Results and Conclusion: 121 articles were found. A total of 40 articles were evaluated in full and 19 were included and developed in the present systematic review study. Considering the Cochrane tool for risk of bias, the overall assessment resulted in 16 studies with a high risk of bias and 25 studies that did not meet GRADE. It was concluded that exercise-induced stimulation of irisin (bioactive cytokines), through muscle-bone-fat crosstalk, increases muscle anabolism, bone formation, mitochondrial biogenesis, glucose utilization, and fatty acid oxidation and Attenuates chronic low-grade inflammation. A current focus in the field of sports and metabolism is the investigation of how specific metabolites and nutrients affect the progression and treatment of muscle injuries. Nutrients can also regulate normal homeostatic processes by altering the decisions of muscle stem and satellite cells. MicroRNAs have emerged as important players in the regulation of gene expression, being involved in most of the biological processes examined to date, given that microRNAs are mainly involved in the cell's stress response making them ideal candidates for mediating the skeletal muscle response to changes in contractile activity. Identifying and validating target genes will help understand the molecular mechanism through which microRNAs regulate skeletal muscle in response to exercise.

Comenzaremos con la visión que elaboró la cronografía medieval, preferentemente iconoclasta, y que perduró en la historiografía de la Edad Moderna y del Siglo XIX. En los estudios bizantinístas del siglo XX y en lo que llevamos del XXI la imagen de Justiniano II aparece con unos perfiles más amplios y variados, ya que se analizan todos los aspectos de su compleja personalidad y sus dos etapas de gobierno.
día que el ilustre claustro de San Marcos juró la independencia rompiendo sus juramentos de obediencia a la Constitución de Cádiz
Authors: González Bolaños Jorge Federico
Published: June 2024

Tras su promulgación, se decretó que la Constitución de Cádiz sea juramentada por autoridades y corporaciones en 1812 y 1820. La obediencia a la Constitución de Cádiz fue juramentada dos veces por el ilustre claustro de San Marcos, que después prestaría su solemne juramento por la independencia del Perú.  Las actas de juramento serán instrumentos políticos, exigidas como pruebas escritas de lealtad obediente al régimen imperante. El Protectorado decretaría en agosto de 1821 la abolición de la Constitución de Cádiz enfatizando el desglose de las actas de juramento gaditano para reemplazarlas por las actas del nuevo juramento por la independencia.

De Sevilla a Nueva España. Los giros del culto mariano en el convento agustino de San Juan Bautista Tiripetío, Michoacán, México.
Authors: Cerda Farías Igor
Published: June 2024

La devoción a la madre de Dios se implantó desde muy temprano en la Nueva España, y quizá una temprana fue la de Nuestra Señora la Antigua de Sevilla. Una de ellas estuvo desde 1548 en el convento agustino de san Juan Bautista Tiripetío pero lamentablemente, la pintura fue destruida por un incendio en 1640. Un siglo después, los frailes colocarían en un altar un lienzo de la virgen, diferente a la sevillana, a la que llamarían Virgen de los Prodigios. Esta es la historia de cómo se transformó el culto mariano y cómo sobrevive hasta nuestros días.

As mini-hortaliças e as baby leaf são um novo nicho de mercado no Brasil, no entanto, poucas são as pesquisas em relação às técnicas mais adequadas visando produtividade com menor custo. Diante disso, o objetivo do trabalho foi avaliar ambientes de cultivo e densidade de plantas no cultivo de baby leaf de rúcula. O delineamento experimental foi blocos casualizados em esquema de parcelas sub-subdivididas, com quatro repetições. O fator principal foi ambiente de cultivo (Túnel coberto com plástico [TP]; Agrotêxtil [AGT] e ambiente natural [AN]). O fator secundário foi densidade (d) de plantas (pl) (d1-1000; d2-500 e d3-333 pl m-2). O fator terciário foi Épocas de colheita (16; 23; 31 e 39 dias após a semeadura-DAS). Foram avaliadas fitomassas fresca (FFP) e seca da planta (FSP); altura de plantas (AP); número de folhas por planta (NFP); produtividade (P) e índice de área foliar (IAF). A FSP foi maior em plantas cultivadas na d2. Na d3, as plantas apresentaram maiores IAF em comparação com as das demais densidades. Entre os ambientes de cultivo verificaram-se maiores valores de FFP, FSP, AP e NF para plantas cultivadas sob TP em comparação com as plantas sob AG e AN. Foi possível a produção de baby leaf de rúcula durante a primavera de Ponta Grossa-PR, tendo, o cultivo sob TP impelido maiores precocidade e produtividade que os sob AG e AN. A densidade de 1000 pl m-2 possibilitou incremento em produtividade para baby leaf de rúcula, independentemente do ambiente de cultivo.

Collaborative Governance in Tourism Village Development in Ciamis Regency, West Java Province, Indonesia
Authors: Nurwanda Asep , Daraba Dahyar , Suprajogo Tjahjo , Puspita Diah
Published: June 2024

Tourism villages are a potential sector in the development of an area with very minimal risk of environmental damage. This makes village tourism a leading sector for all villages, including villages in Ciamis Regency. The development of tourist villages in the normative and empirical process needs to be carried out through collaborative governance because tourist villages have multidimensional characteristics. The development of tourist villages in Ciamis Regency is still not optimal because even though it has great potential and is supported by the Tourism Information Center, it turns out that the development process is still carried out separately between all parties involved. The aim of this research is to analyze collaborative government governance in developing tourist villages and find an ideal collaborative governance model in developing tourist villages in Ciamis Regency. For this purpose, Ansell and Gash's government collaboration theory is used which includes four dimensions, namely initial conditions, facilitative leadership, institutional design, and collaboration processes. The research uses a qualitative approach with descriptive research type. Data analysis was carried out through data reduction and drawing conclusions. The research results show that the ongoing tourism village development process has not fully adopted collaborative governance. This is because trust has not been formed in each of the actors involved. The ideal tourism village development model that adopts collaborative governance is the Tourism Development Model. This model prioritizes building trust and sustainable commitment to each actor in tourism village development.

Determination of the time of refractive stability after uneventful phacoemulsification in Indian eyes
Authors: Nanda Ashok Kumar , Panda Bijnya Birajita , Swain Asish , Balakrishnan Logesh
Published: June 2024

BACKGROUND

Knowledge about refractive stabilization and the accuracy of postoperative refractive error measurements are crucial for improved patient outcomes after phacoemulsification. Existing guidelines typically recommend waiting 4-6 wk before prescribing corrective lenses. Our research focused on identifying factors that influence refractive errors in the early stages of post-cataract surgery, thus contributing to the existing literature on this topic.

AIM

To investigate the time required for refraction stability after uneventful phacoemulsification surgery.

METHODS

We compared the variation and statistical significance of the difference in spherical, cylindrical components, and the spherical equivalent between the 1- and 6-wk follow-up period in a group of 257 eyes that underwent uneventful phacoemulsification with foldable intraocular lens implantation, all performed by a single experienced surgeon. The Wilcoxon-Signed Rank Test was utilized to assess the magnitude of the change and determine its statistical significance. The refractive stability was defined as the point at which the change in spherical equivalent was within ± 0.5 dioptres for two consecutive visits.

RESULTS

The average age of the patients was 64.9 ± 8.9 yr. The differences observed in both the visits in spherical power (0.1 ± 0.2), cylinder power (0.3 ± 0.4), and spherical equivalent (0.2 ± 0.2) were minimal and not statistically significant. The majority of eyes (93.4%) achieved refractive stability within 6 wk after the surgery. The cylindrical power differed between age groups at the 6th wk post-operative and the difference was statistically significant (P value 0.013). There were no significant differences in refractive stability when considering sex and axial length.

CONCLUSION

Phacoemulsification with foldable intraocular lens implantation results in no significant changes in refraction for the majority of cases during the 6-wk follow-up period. Therefore, a spectacle prescription can be given at the completion of 1 wk.

Research on Carbon Emission Allocation in Urban Public Buildings in Guangxi
Authors: Chen Chen , Liao Boi-Yee
Published: June 2024

Currently, the allocation of carbon emissions in public buildings in China is mainly concentrated at the provincial level. This paper uses a hybrid research method of entropy method and data envelopment analysis under zero-sum games to study the allocation of carbon emissions in public buildings among different cities in Guangxi province. This method is flexible and comprehensive, taking into account various factors. Finally, through calculations, the feasibility of this method is verified, and the allocation of carbon emissions in urban public buildings in Guangxi province, under the condition of fixed total carbon emission, is determined. Among them, Nanning and Liuzhou can increase their carbon emission quotas by 96.8% and 91.6%, respectively, to improve economic efficiency and achieve the highest efficiency in carbon emission investment. On the other hand, baise needs to significantly reduce its carbon emission quota by 82.9% due to its lower efficiency. Guigang city, because of the balance between carbon emission investment and the current economic scale, requires a smaller adjustment, within 10%. This approach will help the government's efforts to reduce carbon emissions.

Lessons from overtly-headed exclamatives in Spanish varieties
Authors: Villa-García Julio
Published: June 2024

Inverting wh-exclamative sentences with an overt complementizer in languages like Spanish pose a serious challenge to traditional accounts of obligatory subject-verb inversion. Such analyses assume either T-to-C movement or Spec,TP as an A-bar position capable of hosting wh-phrases and subjects alike. The optional presence of a complementizer in the head of CP in exclamatives prevents the verb from moving to CP, which argues against an analysis of inversion wherein the verb moves to Cº. Regarding the Spec,TP-as-an-A-bar-position account, if the wh-phrase sits in Spec,TP and competes with the subject for that position, the presence of a complementizer below wh-phrases in exclamatives is then rather mysterious, since que ‘that’ is standardly assumed to signal the presence of CP structure –not IP/TP structure. However, for those cases in which the complementizer occurs, a combined approach consisting of a modification of the Spec,TP-as-an-A-bar-position account which assumes further movement of the exclamative wh-phrase to a CP-related/left-peripheral projection headed by the complementizer is shown to be empirically superior to the competing proposals on the market. Furthermore, dialect data show that the presence of que is sensitive to the type of exclamative phrase in its specifier. The inverting exclamative data with overt que also indicate that it is the full projection consisting of the exclamative wh-phrase in the specifier plus the overt complementizer  in the head that needs to be adjacent to the verb in such environments.
Events and copulas
Authors: Escribano Gonzalo
Published: June 2024

This paper focuses on the study of a particular phenomenon of variation related to the distribution of Spanish copulas: the (in)compatibility of event nouns with predication structures where the copula estar and an evaluative adjective are combined. Some structures, such as La boda estuvo preciosa (‘The wedding wasESTAR beautiful’) are present across all Spanish varieties, contrasting with examples such as La tormenta estuvo horrible (‘The storm wasESTAR horrible’), that are attested only in certain specific varieties, and that could be considered an instance of so-called innovative uses of estar. We give here a first picture of the extension of this phenomenon. Secondly, we develop the relevant distinction within the domain of event nouns that is needed to give an accurate explanation of the facts under examination. Finally, we show how these facts fit within the overall picture of copulative variation in Spanish, thus making a significant contribution to our broad understanding of Spanish copulas.

Published: June 2024

Infrastructure has been aged and deteriorated by various causes. Maintenance of its safety and serviceability are crucial and many countries have raised concerns about the existing infrastructure. Infrastructure in Thailand has been also aged. This paper shows results of studies relating to maintenance of infrastructure in Thailand. Inspection of the existing infrastructure in Bangkok was conducted by both visual and non-destructive testing (NDT) showing many deteriorations, and damages. Most of the deteriorations are caused by low concrete covering depth and water leakage. While in marine environment, chloride attack is the main cause. Evaluation criteria for NDT results are studied and modified to be suitable for concrete used in Thailand. To predict the service life of structure, studies have also been conducted to evaluate the corrosion rate of reinforcing steel in reinforced concrete structures in different deterioration mechanisms and environmental conditions. Together with inspection results, service life of structure can be predicted, and maintenance can be well planned. The results of this study could raise awareness of the important of infrastructure maintenance in Thailand.

Equine faecal samples from major tourist destinations of Kashmir valley were examined over a period of one year both qualitatively and quantitatively, and were finally subjected to coproculture, to map out the parasitic fauna of equines for the development of effective control strategies. The overall prevalence rate of parasites was found to be 85.11% with 96.77% prevalence rate in donkeys followed by 86.30%, 81.52% and 75.63% in ponies, mules, and horses, respectively. Prevalence of nematode infection was very high followed by very low prevalence rate of trematodes, cestodes and protozoa. Highest infection rate was recorded in spring, followed by summer, autumn and winter. Prevalence was found to be higher in young equines as compared to adult equines and in males than females. The overall mean EPG was found to be 755.20±33.47 with the highest mean EPG recorded in summer followed by spring, autumn and lowest in winter. Higher intensity of infection was recorded in young equines compared to adults and in females in comparison to males. The different strongylid larvae identified on coprocultures were Cyathostomum spp., followed by Triodontophorus spp., Oesophagodontus spp., Trichostrongylus axei, Gyalocephalus spp., Strongylus edentatus, Poteriostomum spp., Strongylus vulgaris, S. equinus and other larvae. Based on the prevalence pattern, it was concluded that deworming of equines in Kashmir valley should be carried out at least two times a year, i.e. mid-spring (April) and mid-autumn (October) to keep the parasitic load under control.

This pharmacokinetic study was carried out in rabbits following single oral administration of ciprofloxacin to study kinetic behaviour of ciprofloxacin in the presence of vitamin B1 and selected essential amino acid phenylalanine. Rabbits weighing 2-4 kg were randomly assigned to 5 groups of 6 each. Group 1 served as blank without any treatment. Group 2 served as ciprofloxacin control whereas Group 3, 4 and 5 rabbits were co-administered with thiamine (80 mg/kg), phenylalanine (48 mg/kg), combination of thiamine and phenylalanine along with ciprofloxacin (40 mg/kg) orally. Blood samples were collected at predetermined time intervals up to 24 h, and plasma was used for estimation of ciprofloxacin through bioassay. Results obtained from the experiment revealed that rabbits of Group 3, 4 and 5 showed improved levels of Cmax 4.74±0.17, 3.00±0.22, 2.18±0.12 µg/mLand AUC 20.30±5.19, 10.09±1.48, 12.85±1.34 µg.h/mL, respectively when compared to Cmax (2.10±0.14 µg/mL) and AUC (5.90±0.81 µg.h/mL) in Group II rabbits. PK-PD integration of the present study revealed that Cmax: MIC>8, AUC: MIC>125 in Group 3, 4 and 5 implying that the co-administration of vitamin B1 and phenylalanine and their combination improves the antibacterial activity and reduces the development of resistance at the selected dose of ciprofloxacin.

Pyoderma is a one of the most common dermatological condition frequently observed in small animal practice. The genus Staphylococcus is responsible for approximately 90% of pyoderma cases in dogs, caused by bacterial infection. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of major coagulase positive Staphylococcus bacteria causing different types of canine pyoderma in dog breeds. The samples were collected from the clinical cases of canine pyoderma with varying grade from the different breeds of dogs for the molecular based detection of major coagulase-positive Staphylococcus species. Out of total bacterial isolates, majority of them were molecularly identified as Staphylococcus spp. by 16S rRNA gene. Of these Staphylococcus spp., most common isolated organism was S. pseudintermedius (80.82%) followed by S. schleiferi subsp. coagulans (8.22%) and aureus (2.74%), using Pse-nuc, Sch-nuc, and Au-nuc genes, respectively.

Pollinators play an Important role in enhancing biodiversity and maintaining ecosystem health by facilitating the reproduction of many flowering plants. This review explores the diverse mechanisms of pollination, the contributions of pollinators to plant reproduction and genetic diversity, and the vital ecosystem services they provide. Despite their importance, pollinators face numerous threats, including habitat loss and fragmentation, pesticide exposure, climate change, invasive species, and diseases. These challenges have significant impacts on biodiversity, as the decline in pollinator populations can lead to reduced plant reproduction, genetic bottlenecks, and the collapse of plant-pollinator networks. Conservation strategies are essential to mitigate these threats and support pollinator populations. Key strategies include habitat restoration and protection, sustainable agricultural practices, policy and legislative frameworks, public awareness and education, and robust research and monitoring programs. Technological advances, such as high-resolution imaging, genomic tools, and RFID tracking, are enhancing our understanding of pollinator behavior and ecology. Interdisciplinary approaches that integrate ecological, agricultural, economic, and social perspectives are crucial for developing effective conservation plans. Additionally, the integration of traditional ecological knowledge with modern scientific methods offers valuable insights and culturally appropriate conservation practices. Global collaboration and data sharing are imperative for addressing the transboundary nature of pollinator threats and facilitating the exchange of knowledge and best practices. By leveraging these innovative approaches and fostering international cooperation, we can develop comprehensive strategies to protect pollinators and the essential services they provide. This holistic approach is critical for sustaining biodiversity, ensuring food security, and maintaining ecosystem resilience in the face of ongoing environmental changes. This review highlights the urgent need for coordinated, multi-faceted efforts to conserve pollinators and secure the ecological and economic benefits they offer.

Published: June 2024

Como antecedente de este trabajo tenemos el daño al medio ambiente, causado por personas naturales y jurídicas que en su diario accionar realizan actividades contaminantes. La contaminación es diversa, puede ser del aire, del agua; el ruido intenso provoca también contaminación.  En la Constitución de la República del Ecuador, en su artículo 14, se recoge el derecho al buen vivir que tenemos todos los ecuatorianos, sin distinción de ninguna raza, sexo, clase social o creencia religiosa; y, ese principio debe ser encaminado de forma correcta para cumplir con el buen vivir. El objetivo es tratar de evitar ese daño ambiental, a través de la concesión de incentivos de carácter tributario ambiental, que vuelvan atractivo el cuidado del medio ambiente y la remediación del daño causado. El tipo de investigación es cualitativa. Para esta investigación se utilizan los métodos teóricos: histórico–lógico, análisis-síntesis; el método inductivo-deductivo; y, el método empírico de análisis documental.  Se identifica una limitada normativa tributario ambiental llegando a la conclusión de que es necesario proponer la creación de incentivos tributarios a través de reformas legales que permitan aplicar el principio constitucional de que la naturaleza es sujeto de derechos, principio que está recogido en la Carta Magna.

Émile Jaques-Dalcroze as a visionary pioneer of Neurologic Music Therapy
Authors: Altenmüller  Eckart , Scholz Daniel S.
Published: June 2024

Émile Jaques-Dalcroze (1865-1950) anticipated contemporary neuroscientific concepts in his educational method of learning and experiencing music through movement, namely Dalcroze Eurhythmics. He developed the idea of sensorimotor integration as it relates to musical experience and thus contributed crucially to the emergence of Neurologic Music Therapy. Here, we comment on his ideas on learning and integration in the light of modern neurosciences, with emphasis on new findings concerning the dynamics of brain plasticity and the existence of mirror neurons. Auditory-motor co-representations develop rapidly when learning to play a musical instrument and constitute the basis of rehabilitation of neurological impairments with instrumental playing. The theoretical background of neurorehabilitation has been broadened during recent years by the emerging concept of embodiment. We exemplify this by describing a therapeutic approach utilising the sonification of arm movements in stroke patients to improve motor control of the paretic arm and to support emotional and bodily wellbeing.
