Uncertainty Assessment of Fuel Consumption Based on Open Data
Authors: Chevrot Antoine
Published: December 2023

Accurate fuel consumption estimation is crucial for efficient aviation operations and fuel management. However, limited access to detailed traffic and aircraft performance data leads researchers to rely on open data sources for estimation, introducing uncertainties due to several assumptions. In this paper, we propose an uncertainty assessment of fuel-flow calculation using open data. By analysing real-time flight data obtained from the Opensky-Network, comprising different aircraft types, we examine several commonly used hypothesis impacting fuel consumption. Variables such as flight altitude, airspeed, weight or motorisation are found to all contribute to variations in fuel consumption. Our goal is to perform a sensitivity analysis to show the degree of impact of these variables on the final fuel consumption. This study highlights the significance of open data for refining fuel-flow estimation methodologies and provides researchers with a valuable resource seeking to improve fuel consumption calculations and develop more accurate models.
Fast contrail estimation with OpenSky data
Authors: Sun Junzi , Roosenbrand Esther
Published: December 2023

Contrails, formed under specific atmospheric conditions, have a noteworthy role in heat-trapping within the atmosphere. This study bridges the gap between theoretical contrail formation models and real-world data by employing flight information from OpenSky and meteorological data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. We introduce a computationally efficient contrail estimation module, leveraging a client-server architecture that allows on-demand weather data interpolation via an API, significantly reducing computational load and enhancing performance locally. The study also benchmarks the entire pipeline, from data acquisition to contrail prediction, offering a robust tool for future air traffic studies requiring interpolated weather data.

Published: December 2023

A study was conducted on ethical leadership in institutions of higher education.
Objectives of the study were: (i). Illustrate theories of ethical leadership in higher
education institutions; (ii) Determine importance of ethical leadership in higher
education institutions; and (iii) Determine challenges facing ethical leadership in
institutions of higher learning. The total number of written texts sampled was 32. The
researcher employed non-probability sampling. The type employed was online convenience
sampling using web scraping. The interpretivism philosophical assumption led this
investigation, and the qualitative approach was used. Case study was employed as a
design and content analysis as a data analysis tool. The study found out that ethical
leadership is essential in higher education institutions because it establishes a solid
ethical foundation, fosters an environment of integrity, and contributes to the
institutions' long-term success and viability. It acts as a model for all stakeholders,
motivating them to follow ethical concepts and values in their academic pursuits and
institutional responsibilities. The challenges of ethical leadership in higher education
institutions range from fiscal limits to issues about diversity, governance, and
technology. It is vital for higher education institutions to address these concerns in
order to maintain their integrity and efficiency. Recommendations included but were not
limited to the following: (i)Ethical leaders should model the behaviour they expect from
their staff and students. Show integrity, honesty, and justice in your acts and
decisions; (ii) Establish Clear Ethical Standards: Develop an ethical code or set of
fundamental ideas for your educational community. Ensure that these expectations are
communicated to all stakeholders, including staff, students, parents, and the general
public;(iii). Encourage Open Communication: Create an environment in which faculty and
students can express concerns and report unethical behaviour. Encourage transparency and
active listening while responding to remarks; and (iv). Ethical Decision-Making
Training: Provide leaders and personnel with ethical decision-making training and
professional development opportunities. Use case studies and real-life occurrences to
help in discussions about ethical quandaries

Following the General Affairs Council on 12 December 2023, the Spanish presidency issued its conclusions on the evaluation of the Annual Rule of Law Dialogue (ARoLD). The overly positive assessment that transpires from the conclusion fails to convince, due to the continued reliance on confidentiality and the lack of any tangible standards. Moreover, the improvements suggested by the Presidency fall overwhelmingly short of addressing the issues that plague this instrument, confirming it as a weak exercise in posturing with no real stakes involved.

LONG-TERM EFFECTS OF PRENATAL STRESS AND APPROACHES TO DISORDER CORRECTION DURING EARLY DEVELOPMENT
Authors: Zakharova Liudmila
Published: December 2023

This work published and original data about the effects of various stressful stimuli on neuroendocrine and immune system development in animals and humans, with particular focus on effects of maternal infection, inducing inflammation, on developing fetus. Inflammatory processes may modify physiological levels of regulatory factors and hence disrupt developmental mechanisms. The central nervous system is particularly affected by inflammatory products during critical periods of ontogenesis. It leads in prospect to an increase of risk of different psychoneurological diseases, such as autism, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, schizophrenia and depression, in the offspring. Inflammation-induced disorders of reproductive axis can lead to suppressed reproductive ability and infertility. Epigenetic mechanisms of development are highly sensitive to various regulatory factors, that opens up opportunities for disorder correction. Attempts to prevent the after-effects of prenatal inflammation are made over recent years. The approaches aimed at timely detection and correction of the perinatal disorders open a prospect of health maintenance in adult offspring.
SOUND THERAPY AND MUSIC MEDICINE: BIOLOGICAL MECHANISMS (Part 1)
Authors: Reid John Stuart
Published: December 2023

This article provides clinicians and other medical professionals with an introduction to the related fields of Sound Therapy and Music Medicine, outlining some of the many biological mechanisms advantageously activated by these modern modalities. The umbrella term for audible sound therapies is often popularly referred to as «Vibrational Medicine», embracing the energetic (vibrational) interconnectedness of the mind-body system. The information provided is intended for physicians, psychologists, music therapists, nurses, integrative medicine practitioners, and wellness practitioners utilizing the therapeutic potential of Vibrational Medicine. Since the body is comprised of vibrational energy, a wide variety of energetic modalities are available to support the patient’s physiology, and the article describes some of the many physiological mechanisms initiated by Sound Therapy and Music Medicine, perhaps most importantly, pain mediation, achieved by locally applied specific sound frequencies. Other mechanisms, such as vagal stimulation, are described and achieved by experiencing specific sound frequencies or music via headphones. The article is in two parts: Part 1 provides a short history of therapeutic sound, followed by definitions of Music Therapy, Music Medicine, and Sound Therapy, followed by sections on some of the many biological mechanisms activated by full body immersion in music or specific sound frequencies, including an introduction to pain mediation by sound. Part 2 will be published in the next issue of the «Medicine and Art» journal. It includes breaking the pain-spasm pain cycle in spinal injury by sound; pain relief and anxiety relief by acupressure and sonopuncture; oxygen-driven healing by sound; musical stimulation of the immune system; sonic stimulation of the vagus nerve via headphones and by vocalizations; and last, a look into the future of vibrational medicine.
INFLUENCE OF MUSICAL-ACOUSTIC IMPACTS ON CELLULAR IMMUNITY AND THE PROSPECTS OF BIOACOUSTIC TECHNOLOGIES
Authors: Shushardzhan Sergey , Eremina Natalya
Published: December 2023

This article reflects the results of an original study on the effects of musical-acoustic signals on cellular immunity. These studies are a logical continuation of a series of experiments with blood in an acoustic field in Vitro, begun in 2003. As a result, a new method was identified and patented for activating the growth of leukocyte mass and complex correction of blood composition using a regenerative algorithm of musical-acoustic influences. Its use made it possible to increase the number of neutrophils by 4.7 times, lymphocytes by 3.9 times, and immature granulocytes by 18.3 times within just one hour. In 2022, it was decided to conduct a pilot study of the dynamics of lymphocyte cell composition after acoustic interventions. Interest in cellular immunity is explained by its critical role in maintaining homeostasis, including in the fight against infectious and oncological diseases. The experiment used a special music therapy program, the broadcast of which was carried out in two ways: 1) direct intervention through sound speakers on venous blood in test tubes (in Vitro) and 2) separately, through receptive audio influence. When analyzing the results obtained, a tendency was revealed towards correction of the lymphocytic cellular composition of the blood with increased immune reactions: T-lymphocytes, natural «killer» cells, and strengthening the balance of active 4+ and cytotoxic 8+ immunity. An unexpected result should include activation of cellular immunity of comparable significance, which was detected with both methods of influence: direct exposure to sound in blood in test tubes and audio listening to the program. There is no doubt about the need for further research into the mechanisms of cellular and Psychophysiological reactions to musical and acoustic influences. It will become the basis for the development of effective methods of immunological correction and regenerative biotechnologies of a new generation, with subsequent widespread use in various fields of medicine, agriculture, and other spheres of society.

Published: December 2023

One of the religious based educational institutions in Indonesia is Batu Bible School, where people who want to become Servants of God and want to join spiritual ministry can be trained and knowing more about Biblical Doctrine. The author found there were various intrapersonal communication experiences that experienced by the students. Students who have higher educational level and good career achievements before joining the Bible School, tend to go through a very intense intrapersonal communication process, with various inner situations. This is due to the cognitive dissonance or discomfort that arises because of differences in actions taken with thoughts that tend to lead to other actions. This research aims to understand about the intrapersonal communication process that occurs in decision making to take education in the Batu Bible School. The subjects of this study were students of the Batu Bible School in the 64-66 generation range, and who had previously worked but then decided to take education in the Bible School. This research is a qualitative descriptive research with the type of phenomenological approach. The result showed that the intrapersonal communication process in decision making is a very long process, unlimited, and impressed overlapping.
Community Empowerment Through the Application of the Story Method in Fostering Children's Morals at the Yasin Mahbub Prayer Room, Sukadadi Village
Authors: Meli Wati  , Didik Himmawan
Published: December 2023

Morals are a person's behavior or behavior that is carried out consciously and gives birth to good deeds. Morals are the soul of the Islamic religion so that appropriate methods are needed in forming and fostering them. The Qur'an gives a hint that stories have an important role in shaping and developing morals. This coaching is carried out using the story method that happened to former people such as the stories of prophets and apostles and companions of the prophet which are also found in the Al-Qur'an. The Al-Qur'an also perpetuates many important and useful stories that occurred in the history of ancient people by living in His Word to make humans always do good and imitate these stories so that they are used as guidelines and examples for their lives. If his view of life is centered on the principles of the Qur'anic view, then the morals that arise are the morals of the Qur'an. And in the Qur'an contains a lot of history that can be used as a role model for humanity, especially Muslims to be a guide as well as guidance in dealing with life problems
Community Service through the Teaching and Learning Movement in Improving the Faith and Morals of Elementary School Students
Authors: Nurhasanah
Published: December 2023

Basically the application of the Thematic Real Work Lecture (KKNT) system that has been implemented has an important influence on education, one of which is Islamic Religious Learning in Elementary Schools and other levels of Education. Learning Aqidah Akhlak is very important because later it will shape the attitude, behavior and identity of a child because high moral formation is the main goal in Islamic education. And talking about coaching issues is the same as talking about the goals of Islamic education. Coaching is an activity to maintain and perfect what already exists and is done repeatedly. Moral development must also be given to children from an early age and must be carried out by related parties such as parents, educational institutions, the government and other parties continuously so that they can have noble morals as exemplified by Rasulullah SAW and be able to stay away from bad morals. bad. Therefore, Islamic Religious Education teachers are required to provide role models and always pay attention to students both in terms of knowledge, attitude and behavior as well as worship skills to realize students who have noble character in accordance with the Islamic religion.
Implementation of Sharia Business Ethics in Indonesian Sharia Banking (Case Study of Bank BJBS KCP Cimahi)
Authors: Ryan Renaldi  , Muhammad Al Mighwar
Published: December 2023

This articel's goal is to examine and debate the ethical principles that Indonesian Islamic banking practices have adopted as norms, particularly in resolving practical operational issues based on exploratory investigations. Four consumers and three managers of Islamic banks served as the research samples in this study, which was done at Islamic Banking in Cimahi. The analysis's findings suggest three things, all of which are supported by the notion of business ethics: First, Islamic bankers have been successful in forging cordial bonds with stakeholders and customers. Second, they consistently act responsibly while handling difficult situations and uphold high personal moral standards, even in the face of regulatory changes made by the parent bank. These are informal learning opportunities for writers and readers to fulfill their obligations so that they may apply moral principles to organizations. In order to increase the professionalism and operational quality of sharia banking in Indonesia, the author expects  that this article will serve as a theoretical  and practical resource and guide for regulators and sharia banking practitioners. The results still need to be verified and further generalized because this study's sample size and population coverage are restricted.

Published: December 2023

Occlusive pathology in the branches of aortic bifurcation or linear remains an urgent task of endovascular surgery in all highly developed countries throughout the world due to atherosclerotic narrowing of the vessels especially in the lower extremities. We have described the possibilities of surgical elimination of critical limb ischemia (CLI) in the stage of trophic disorders through the cohort study, which was conducted in the Grodno university clinic. The hospital and university committee approved the study. Within the last two years 2020-2022 in the hospital a total number of 68 patients were surgically treated for the CLI with trophic disorders. All of them were staged III-IV according to R.Fontine - A.V. Pokrovsky staging and ankle-brachial index (ABI). Aorto-femoral, Infrainguinally femoro-popliteal-tibial revascularization and transplantation of autologous venous allograft for the reconstruction of the lower extremities in the above mentioned patients were carried out. We obtained a very positive results, in 97.1% the patients had a limb with positive dynamics and its functional state was preserved. Only in 2 patients out of 66 which is 2.9%, the limb was amputated due to complications developed and inadequate revascularization. Based on our clinical observation we have proposed that, the use of autogenous venous material, modern original deobliterating reconstructions of arterial vasculature and transplantable allograft structures may be promising in the amelioration of occlusive pathology in severe life threatening lower limb ischemia in the stage of trophic disorders
Non-Smoker’s Cancer- Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) Induced Head & Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC)
Authors:   Dental Practitioner, Kolkata, West Bengal, India, Ghoshal Nanda Kishore , Singh Susanchita
Published: December 2023

Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is recognized as 6th most common cancer worldwide. Etiological factors are generally cigarettes, alcohol consumption also tobacco products such as ghutka, pan masala and betel quid also triggers the development of OSCC. Among several causes of cervical malignancies which the second most carcinoma is the world, infection with some types of human papilloma virus (HPV) is thought to be the greatest cervical cancer risk factor. Over 150 subtypes of HPV have been identified; from which more than 40 types of HPVs are typically transmitted through sexual contact and infect the anogenital region and oral cavity. HPV is suspected as the principle causative factor for oral malignancy in non smoker and non-alcoholic patients. It was also reported to be associated with Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in 1995. The recently introduced vaccine for HPV infection is effective against certain subtypes of HPV which are associated with cervical cancer, genital warts, and some less common cancers, including oropharyngeal cancer. The value of HPV vaccination for oral cancer prevention is still controversial and hypothetical; some evidence also supports the possibility that HPV vaccination may be preventive factor in reducing the incidence of oral cancer.
Lithostratigraphy and Sedimentation Models of TMG-C4 Well Offshore Eastern Niger Delta
Authors:   Department of Earth Sciences, Ajayi Crowther University Oyo, Oyo State, Nigeria, HC Chuku , EE Umoh
Published: December 2023

Analysis was carried out in TMG-C4 well by integrating well logs data that revealed three depositional sequences within the Agbada Formation of about 400ft thick. Three systems tracts identified include highstand systems tract, transgressive systems tract and lowstand systems tracts. The highstand systems tract is majorly stacked regressive shoreface sands that occurred in two parasequence sets, whereas the transgressive systems tract is a transgressive unit with both source rock and sealing potentials. The lowstand systems tract shows a boxcar log motif and is identified to be probably channel or barrier bar sand. Major shale units (maximum flooding surfaces) with regional significance mapped are designated MFS. This division is relevant to identifying genetic depositional units. Three genetic sequences occurred in the well. The transgressive shales represent interruptions in the overall regressive sequence that is related to sea-level rise. Three of these shales have been mapped and two of them correspond to the eleven genetic megasequences that occur delta wide. A predominantly marine and deltaic sequences strongly influenced by clastic output from the continent is inferred from the well logs. Paleo water depth is interpreted to fluctuate considerably and deposition occurred within a variety of littoral and neritic environments ranging from nearshore barrier sand complexes to fully marine outer shelf mudstones. The sediments are rapidly deposited within the shallow marine realm and reworked into longitudinal bars by wave action, strong longshore drift and tidal effects. The dominant depositional trend observed in the well shows progradation

Published: December 2023

Background: The evolution of risk measures for COVID-19 infection from 2020 to 2023 is not clearly known. Objective: To know the evolution of risk measures of cases of COVID-19 from March 15, 2020 to October 1, 2023 in a general medicine consultation in Toledo, Spain. Methodology: Comparison of the COVID-19 incidence rate (IR), relative risk (RR) and attributable risk (AR) and in 2020, 2021 and 2022 and 2023 years versus covid-19 in 2023 (group with very broad hybrid immunity), based on data from previous longitudinal studies, all of them carried out in the same population of patients treated in a general medicine office in Toledo, Spain. Results: 712 COVID-19 cases from March 15, 2020 to October 31, 2022 (3 years at risk) and 76 covid-19 cases from October 2022 to October 2023 (1 year at risk) were included, for a population at risk of 2,000 people. In 2023 vs. 2020-2022, the following statistically significant differences were found: a lower IR, a protective RR, and a negative AR for the entire at-risk population (IR= 36% x 3 Years; 12% on average for 1 year versus IR= 4% x 1 year; a RR of 0.33 [p= .037056], and an AR= -8); a lower IR in < 65 years [13% average x 1 year vs. 3%; p= .009149; RR= 0.23; RA= -10], and a lower IR in men [IR= 12% average for one year versus 4%; RR of 0.33 [p= .037056]; RA= -8. There was a lower IR in women, in cases with moderate-severe severity, and in socio-health workers, all with RRs that indicated protection factors, and negative ARs for the 2023 group vs. 2020-2022, but without statistical significance. However, the presence of chronic diseases meant a higher IR, a weak risk, and positive RA indicates that the incidence is greater for covid-19 in 2023 vs. in 2020-2022. Conclusion: In general practice setting in Toledo, Spain, in 2023 the population at risk with greater hybrid immunity is better prepared in 2023 vs. 2020-22 to avoid cases of COVID-19, but people with chronic diseases pose a greater risk in 2023.
Relación entre asma e infección por tuberculosis en niños en una comunidad con alta prevalencia para ambos

Published: December 2023

Introducción: La información científica disponible sugiere que la exposición a mycobacterium tuberculosis (TBC) podría potencialmente suprimir el desarrollo de asma al estimular TH1 y suprimir la respuesta TH2. Los datos epidemiológicos incluyen la observación de la existencia de una correlación significativa pero inversa entre la prevalencia de asma y la de TBC en varios países. En el Perú tenemos una alta prevalencia para ambos.

Objetivo: Describir la relación entre asma y la infección TBC en niños en una comunidad con alta prevalencia para ambos.

Métodos: Se realizó la prueba de tuberculina (PPD) a todo paciente mayor de 2 años de edad con síntomas de Asma o exposición a TBC que acudió a consultorio externo de neumología pediátrica del Hospital Hipólito Unanue. Se definió paciente con TBC infección a aquel que presentaba un PPD positivo con una induración = o > 10 mm. El diagnóstico de asma se fundamentó en el examen físico y en un cuestionario basado en el empleado en el estudio ISAAC.

Resultados: Se llegaron a incluir a 95 pacientes. De estos 78 con asma (82.1%) y 17 con TBC infección (17.89%). En el grupo con Asma, 73 pacientes tuvieron una prueba negativa de PPD (93.59%) y 5 una positiva (24.4%) (p<0.001). El grupo con TBC infección presentó 5 pacientes con asma (24.4%) y 12 (70.59%) sin signos o síntomas actuales o previos de asma (p<0.001). El riesgo fue de 3.18 veces más de presentar asma en los niños que tuvieron PPD negativo que los que tuvieron PPD positivo. El 68.57 % de los casos de pacientes con asma están relacionadas con resultados de PPD negativo.

Conclusión: La relación entre asma y TBC infección en niños es inversa, aún en una comunidad con alta prevalencia para ambas.

Natural Sustainability Ethics for Resolving Current Outer Space Challenges

Published: December 2023

Currently, NASA and several outer space industry multi-billionaire entrepreneurs (e.g. Elon Musk (Space X), Jeff Bezos (Blue Origin), Richard Branson (Virgin Galactic)), are actively engaged in outer-space research that reports innovative advances such as, outer space: mining, tourism, medicine labs, terraforming Mars and the Moon, and altering celestial bodies and terrestrial humans to enhance extra-terrestrial survivability. All these advances unearth serious ethical concerns of human identity and cosmic sustainability that we address here. Further, the current understanding of sustainability development (SD) is highly anthropocentric (i.e., the earth is meant solely for man’s use), and limited in scope as a terrestrial, temporal, economic and pro-human project. We expand SD to include trans-terrestrial, trans-temporal, trans-economic, and trans-human developments. We view this complex problem by distinguishing anthropocentric (nature is for man) versus non-anthropocentric (man is for nature) modern views of natural sustainability; Each view can be made to include either natural outcomes / processes of nature, or industrial uses and outcomes of nature to provide a four-fold framework of Natural Sustainability within which we explore ethical implications of outer space advances (OSA). We discuss managerial implications and limitations and suggest directions for future research.

"Identifying natural and safe methods for preserving food is an important issue. In this respect, one of the most important foodborne pathogens in ready-to-eat meat products is Listeria monocytogenes, which had a high prevalence in global food poisoning outbreaks. In the study, six essential oils (Ocimum basilicum, Eucalyptus maculata var. citriodora, Salvia officinalis, Petroselinum crispum, Citrus aurantifolia, Cinnamomum zeylanicum) were studied for their antimicrobial efficiency against Listeria monocytogenes using the Agar Well Diffusion assay, in order to select the three most effective essential oils. Samples were performed in triplicate with positive and negative control. According to the measured inhibition area, the antimicrobial effect ranking for the studied essential oils was the following: Cinnamomum zeylanicum essential oil - 29.00±1.00 mm, Citrus aurantifolia - 17.00±0.82 mm and Ocimum basilicum - 12.00±0.82 mm. In conclusion, the efficacy of the selected oils against L. monocytogenes is noted, further studies on their activity in food matrices experimentally and naturally contaminated with the studied pathogen being needed."

"The study was carried out to evaluate some microscopic parameters (mobility, concentration, viability), to assess the metabolic intensity of spermatozoa (Redox test), and sperm resistance test related with ram fertility and the quality of ram semen in different age groups. The study was conducted in a farm located in Cluj County, on 34 rams of Turcana Alba breed, grouped according to age into 4 batches. Weekly an ejaculate and the mentioned variables were measured. Semen samples were collected from each animal using the artificial vagina (AV). For sperm mobility, the best values were observed for 3 years old rams (X ± S = 88.4 ± 3.02). Variations in sperm viability showed some changes, but for all age groups were obtained values above those indicated in the literature. Assessment of sperm concentration revealed that rams in B6 (X ± S = 2.75 ±0.31) and B5 (X ± S = 2.7 ± 0.38) had the best values. Higher metabolic intensity rate in B6, B5, B3 groups was correlated with higher values of concentration and mobility in these age groups. Thus, the best values regarding sperm resistance were recorded for the rams aged 6 and 5 years, in which the average values were equal to 7022.22. With increase in age, ram showed increase percentages of motility and viability of sperm in all studied batches."
