Two-Axial Measurement of the Angular Microdeflection of a Laser Beam Using One Single-Axis Sensor
Authors: Dobosz Marek , Jankowski Michał , Mruk Jakub
Published: November 2023

The majority of current methods for measuring the angular deflection of a laser beam enable measurement only in one selected plane. However, there are tasks in which measurements of laser beam deflections in 3D are required. In this paper, we present a way of enabling two-axial measurements of the deflection of a beam based on a single-axis sensor. The key idea is to direct a laser beam, alternately, into one of two arms of a measurement system. In the first arm, the beam is transmitted directly to the angular sensor, while in the second, the beam is directed to the sensor via a special optical element that rotates the plane of the beam deflection; in other words, this element changes the deflection in the horizontal plane into a deflection in the vertical plane, and vice versa. To alternate the path of the beam, a variable phase retarder and a polarising beamsplitter are used. The proposed technique was experimentally verified, and the results confirm its effectiveness.
Optimal Dispatch Strategy for Electric Vehicles in V2G Applications
Authors: Eltamaly Ali M.
Published: November 2023

The overutilization of electric vehicles (EVs) has the potential to result in significant challenges regarding the reliability, contingency, and standby capabilities of traditional power systems. The utilization of renewable energy distributed generator (REDG) presents a potential solution to address these issues. By incorporating REDG, the reliance of EV charging power on conventional energy sources can be diminished, resulting in significant reductions in transmission losses and enhanced capacity within the traditional power system. The effective management of the REDG necessitates intelligent coordination between the available generation capacity of the REDG and the charging and discharging power of EVs. Furthermore, the utilization of EVs as a means of energy storage is facilitated through the integration of vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology. Despite the importance of the V2G technology for EV owners and electric utility, it still has a slow progress due to the distrust of the revenue model that can encourage the EV owners and the electric utility as well to participate in V2G programs. This study presents a new wear model that aims to precisely assess the wear cost of EV batteries, resulting from their involvement in V2G activities. The proposed model seeks to provide EV owners with a precise understanding of the potential revenue they might obtain from participating in V2G programs, hence encouraging their active engagement in such initiatives. Various EV battery wear models are employed and compared. Additionally, this study introduces a novel method for optimal charging scheduling, which aims to effectively manage the charging and discharging patterns of EVs by utilizing a day-ahead pricing technique. This study presents a novel approach, namely, the gradual reduction of swarm size with the grey wolf optimization (GRSS-GWO) algorithm, for determining the optimal hourly charging/discharging power with short convergence time and the highest accuracy based on maximizing the profit of EV owners.

Published: November 2023

Although different strategies have been implemented to manage recovery-fatigue status in athletes, there is still a lack of consensus on which recovery protocols have the greatest impact and effectiveness when implemented with basketball players, including both physiological and psychological recovery methods. Thus, the purpose of this systematic review is to: (a) determine which recovery methods attain the greatest benefit in restoring the process of attenuating fatigue and (b) provide sports practitioners with guidelines on how some of the most effective recovery strategies can be used to optimize athletes’ recovery and ultimately enhance their performance. Using the PRISMA guidelines, a total of 3931 research reports were obtained through four database searches (i.e., PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane, and Web of Science), from which only 25 met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The recovery protocols analyzed in this systematic review were: sleep, nutrition, hydration, ergogenic aids, cold-water immersion, compression garments, massage, acupuncture, tapering, mindfulness, and red-light irradiation. The results revealed that all recovery strategies are capable of attenuating fatigue and enhancing recovery in basketball players to a certain degree. However, an individualized approach should be promoted, where a combination of proactive recovery modalities appears to result in the most rapid rates of recovery and athletes’ ability to maintain high-level performance. Recovery should be programmed as an integral component of training regimens. Also, cooperation and communication between coaches, players, and the rest of the team staff members are essential in minimizing the risk of non-functional overreaching or injury and optimizing basketball players’ on-court performance.

Published: November 2023

Wild edible plants have attracted increasing interest from researchers because of their richness in biologically active phytochemicals. These are found to be a potential remedy for oxidative-stress-mediated diseases such as diabetes mellitus. In this study, total phenol, total terpene, and total flavonoid content as well as antioxidant and antidiabetic activities of Scorzonera phaeopappa Boiss from Lebanon were determined. Using dichloromethane, dichloromethane ammonia, methanol, acetone, and ethanol, extracts were prepared from the edible leaves. The antioxidant activity and the antidiabetic activity were determined by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl scavenging, Fe2+-chelating and α-amylase/α-glucosidase inhibitory assays, respectively. Dichloromethane ammonia was found to have the highest extraction capacity on phenols (2.73 mg GAE /100 mg extract) and terpenes (232.42 mg LE/100 mg extract). Methanol was found to have the highest extraction capacity on total flavonoids (63.05 mg QE/100 mg extract). The methanol extract exhibited the highest DPPH scavenging activity (IC50 0.07 mg/mL) and the highest chelating activity as compared to other extracts (0.08 mg/mL, chelating activity 50%). The acetone extract was two times more active than acarbose against α-amylase enzyme and was the most active against α-glucosidase (6.3 mg/mL). Significant positive correlations were observed between total phenol content and α-glucosidase inhibitory assay and total terpene content and α-glucosidase inhibitory assay.

Authors: Kashyap Abhishek , Shukla Om Ji , Jha Bal Krishna , Ramtiyal Bharti , Soni Gunjan
Published: November 2023

Cold supply chains (CSCs) are critical for preserving the quality and safety of perishable products like milk, which plays a vital role in the daily lives of a vast population, especially in countries like India. This research centers on sustainable milk production in Northern India, with priorities of ensuring efficiency and waste reduction within the cold supply chain. Leveraging data from a prominent North India-based dairy company, Company ‘X’, an ARIMA model is applied for predicting monthly milk production trends. Utilizing the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (IBM SPSS STATISTICS 20) software, the study forecasts Company ‘X’s monthly milk production and identifies four distinct ARIMA models based on the autocorrelation function (ACF) and the partial autocorrelation function (PACF). By comparing predicted and actual milk production values (April–October 2021), sustainability metrics are integrated into ARIMA forecasts. Implications for the dairy sector’s sustainability and alignment with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are assessed through error terms such as R squared (R2) and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE). The study promotes sustainable milk production practices in Northern India’s dairy sector, resonating with the SDGs to optimize demand–supply dynamics and foster a more environmentally conscious dairy industry.

Authors: Chen Yang , Liu Kexin , Jiang Sijun , Sun Yiqun , Chen Hui
Published: November 2023

The system differential response method for inverse estimation has received much attention in the hydrology literature. However, its underlying mechanisms remain largely unexplored, highlighting the need for this study. This study proposes the relation degree coefficient (RC) concept describing the nonlinear relationships between different variables and demonstrates that the selective information extraction ability of the method was first demonstrated from a theoretical perspective. Synthetic cases were conducted to demonstrate the method performance under various variables to be estimated. The results show that the useful information is extracted from the relationship between the variables to be estimated and the observed discharge. In addition, there is a general trend that suggests that incorporating more variables into the inversion estimation can lead to enhanced estimation performance.
A Decade Review of Research Trends Using Waste Materials in the Building and Construction Industry: A Pathway towards a Circular Economy
Authors: Haigh Robert
Published: November 2023

The construction industry is among the most prominent contributors to global resource consumption, waste production, and greenhouse gas emissions. A pivotal step toward mitigating these sectoral impacts lies in the adoption of a circular production and consumption system. The use of alternative waste materials can mitigate landfill accumulation and the associated detrimental environmental effects. To highlight unconventional materials, this study began with a bibliometric assessment via a bibliography analyzis software called “Bibliometrix” (version 4.1.3). The outputs from the analyzis can assist in identifying research trends, gaps in literature and benchmark research performance. The search engine used for sourcing publications was Scopus, using the main criteria as “Waste materials used in building and construction”. The time-period analysed was from 2013 to 2023. The results included publications obtained in journal articles, book chapters and conference proceedings. The assessment reviewed 6238 documents from 1482 sources. The results revealed an array of waste materials; however, rubber, textiles, and ceramics had a significant reduction in research attention. Rubber waste presents promising opportunities in civil concrete construction methods. The preparatory steps of textile fibres in composite materials are frequently disregarded, resulting in structural issues for the end-product. Obstacles persist in ceramic technology due to the absence of transparency, primarily because industry entities closely safeguard proprietary information. While sustainability research often emphasizes emissions, practical trials commonly revolve around integrating materials into current systems. A more comprehensive approach, contemplating the complete lifecycle of materials, could provide deeper insights into fostering sustainable construction practices. Researchers can use these findings when determining trends, research gaps, and future research directions.
Modeling EV Charging Station Loads Considering On-Road Wireless Charging Capabilities
Authors: Alfraidi Walied , Shalaby Mohammad , Alaql Fahad
Published: November 2023

Electric vehicle (EV) customers are expected to charge EV batteries at a rapid EV charging station or via on-road wireless EV charging systems when possible, as per their charging needs to successfully complete any remaining trips and reach their destination. When on-road wireless EV charging systems are considered as an alternative charging method for EVs, this can affect the load of a rapid EV charging station in terms of time and magnitude. Hence, this paper presents a probabilistic framework for estimating the arrival rate of EVs at an EV rapid charging station, considering the availability of on-road wireless charging systems as an alternative charging method. The proposed model incorporates an Electric Vehicle Decision Tree that predicts the times when EVs require rapid charging based on realistic transportation data. A Monte Carlo simulation approach is used to capture uncertainties in EV user decisions regarding charging types. A queuing model is then developed to estimate the charging load for multiple EVs at the charging station, with and without the consideration of on-road EV wireless charging systems. A case study and simulation results considering a 32-bus distribution system and the US National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) data are presented and discussed to demonstrate the impact of on-road wireless EV charging on the loads of an rapid EV charging station. It is observed that having on-road wireless EV charging as complementary charging to EV charging stations helps to significantly reduce the peak load of the charging station, which improves the power system capacity and defers the need for system upgrades.
Les céramiques toulousaines, entre production et exportation outre-Atlantique, de la fin du XVIIe à la seconde moitié du XVIIIe siècle
Authors: Minovez Jean-Michel , Piques Stéphane
Published: November 2023

Au XVIIIe siècle, le Sud-Ouest de la France s’intègre dans l’économie-monde née au XVIe siècle autour de l’océan Atlantique. L’archéologie montre que les manufactures de faïences mais surtout les ateliers de poterie du Toulousain qui fabriquent de la vaisselle peinte et des marmites, servant de contenant aux cuisses d’oie préparées dans la région, s’inscrivent dans ce mouvement par l’intermédiaire du port de Bordeaux. Trois raisons majeures expliquent que l’hinterland bordelais ait atteint le Toulousain. Les capacités de l’offre régionale et l’état de la demande coloniale n’auraient pas suffi sans la présence en Nouvelle-France d’une élite militaire d’origine toulousaine imbriquée dans des réseaux marchands de même origine. La place décisive que prend Bordeaux dans l’organisation de cette économie connectée transatlantique au milieu du XVIIIe siècle fut également un profond stimulant pour l’industrie rurale céramique de la moyenne Garonne.
La marmite de Cox-Lomagne au XVIIIe siècle : contenant et contenu
Authors: Catalo Jean , Piques Stéphane
Published: November 2023

Les recherches menées depuis plus de vingt ans sur les sites de production toulousains et le développement de l’archéologie moderne ont bénéficié ces dernières années du renouvellement de l’étude des artefacts céramiques retrouvés sur des sites canadiens. Une céramique est particulièrement concernée par les exportations en Nouvelle-France de la fin du XVIIe siècle à la première moitié du XVIIIe siècle : la marmite dite «de Cox » . Si l’origine de cet objet est désormais acquise grâce aux comparaisons morphologiques et aux analyses archéométriques, sa fonction est remise en question par les découvertes actuelles. Plus qu’un objet servant à la cuisson des aliments, nous sommes plus sûrement en présence d’un contenant pour un produit promis à un grand avenir pour la gastronomie du Sud-Ouest : la cuisse d’oie confite. Cette nouvelle hypothèse archéologique renouvelle la connaissance de son contenu et par là-même des sociétés rurales qui l’ont produite et exportée.
Amparancia, patis et souffrances de guerre en Bigorre à la fin du XIVe siècle
Authors: Couderc François , Le Nail Jean-François
Published: November 2023

During the Hundred Years’ War, faced with the inability of the King of France to protect his subjects in the county of Bigorre against the Anglo-Gascon “ routiers”, in particular the “ Compagnons de Lourdes”, the communities organized themselves. Either they concluded agreements of non-aggression with the “ routiers”, the patis ; or they signed treaties of protection called amparancia with their neighbour Gaston Fébus. On the death of Fébus, the leader of the Companions of Lourdes, Jean de Béarn, seneschal of Bigorre for the King of England, brought the Bigourdan communities to patis, whereas, as the keeper of truces for the King of England since 1388, he knew that he had no right to do so. In 1399, the communities had recourse to the general curator of truces, Louis de Sancerre, to find an agreement with Jean de Béarn so that he would no longer impose his protection, particularly on Bagnères-de-Bigorre. After negotiations between Jean de Béarn and the representatives of the city, the latter solemnly swore that they did not have any patis with the captain of Lourdes and it was recognized that they had to pay only half of the pati. Thus ended a period of 30 years during which the communities had chosen to accept racketeering as a system of protection and then began to want to protect themselves behind the walls of their city. Supported by an exceptional document on the supposed patis of the town of Bagnères, this article evokes how a community of Bigorre navigated the last third of the 14th century.
Avant l’âge d’or. Le premier essor du commerce du pastel du Midi toulousain (milieu du XIIIe-milieu du XIVe siècle
Authors: Petrowiste Judicaël
Published: November 2023

The history of pastel is traditionally limited to the golden age of the international trade of this dye, which made the fortune of Toulouse between the end of the 15th and the middle of the 16th century. This story forgets that the production and sale of pastel ensured for more than two centuries the prosperity of part of the southern countryside. The enumeration of references to this product in the leude and toll tariffs of the Toulouse region and the main transit centers of the Mediterranean coast reveals indeed a very clear intensification of its circulation from the end of the 13th century, which can be correlated with the rapid expansion of the centers of drapery production in Catalonia, Roussillon and Languedoc. The development of this trade encouraged the expansion of the areas devoted to woad in Lauragais, Albigeois and Toulousain during the first half of the 14th century, and was one of the driving forces behind the expansion of the villages that, in these areas, ensured the concentration and redistribution of woad. It thus testifies to the early emergence of these «small village capitalists » evoked by Philippe Wolff concerning the 15th century.
Le pastel en Lauragais à la fin du Moyen Âge : un état des lieux
Authors: Marandet Marie-Claude
Published: November 2023

The old studies of Philippe Wolff (1954) and Gilles Caster (1962) established a chronology and a geography of the production and marketing of pastel which made Toulouse the hub and the middle of the 15th century the starting point. According to innumerable notary registers and estimate books, it is possible to readjust the rhythms to highlight a production that was already alive in the 14th century, and above all to shift our gaze to recognize the role of small towns, such as Castelnaudary. These are active centers, capable of exporting directly to the distant markets of Catalonia or Bordeaux, without necessarily passing through the relay of Toulouse merchants. This article thus proposes to take a fresh look at this history.
Toulouse, Lyon, Florence : les réseaux florentins du pastel languedocien
Authors: Pallini-Martin Agnès
Published: November 2023

The pastel of the Lauragais region represents an important stake for Florentine merchants and financiers at the turn of the 16th century. For them, who perfectly mastered accounting techniques and long-distance commercial circuits, the commercialization of the dye plant represented a profitable and relatively safe investment. Domenico and Francesco Naldini, Florentines established in Toulouse since the of the 15th century and associated with the Salviati company in Lyon, developed business for about twenty years. Their unpublished accounting documents shed on the pastel routes to Tuscany and allow us to question the functioning of between companies.
Une singulière histoire de l’industrie du plomb à Marseille : l’usine de la Madrague de Montredon (1873-1884)
Authors: Raveux Olivier
Published: November 2023

This article recounts the short history of the Marseilles lead factory of the Madrague de Montredon, owned by the Société métallurgique de Marseille. Specialising in the treatment of galena and silver lead, this plant has an original trajectory in the industrial history of Marseille in the 18th and 19th centuries. Instead of betting on exploiting commercial opportunities, the factory’s founder, Hilarion Roux, took a long-term gamble on industry by securing supplies of raw materials, investing in technical innovation and a policy of coordination between companies spread across the Mediterranean basin, from Spain to Greece. The closure of the factory in 1884 is in no way linked to the company’s difficulties in the non-ferrous sector but finds its explanation in the personal failure of Hilarion Roux, author of bad investments in Madagascar. This premature end reveals the fragility of establishments inserted in industrial and financial complexes which allow them to function, but at the same time generate risks external to the activities for which they were created.
Une société biterroise aux racines haut-saônoises : la société familiale Abel Bresson, du négoce à la firme industrielle (1839-1940)
Authors: El Mostain Abdelhak
Published: November 2023

In 1997, Abel Bresson, a company from Beziers, owned by the Marie Brizard group since 1990, specialized in the manufacture of syrups and concentrates, closed its doors. Victim of a group strategy and of the concentration of distribution, it disappeared from the Biterrois landscape where it had been established for 60 years. If Abel Bresson represents more than half a century of history in Beziers, it also represents more than a century of history in Fougerolles in Haute-Saône. At its peak, at the end of the 19th century, it was one of the leaders on the national market of aperitifs and digestives. It even became the leader in this market after the acquisition in 1912 of its direct competitor and leader in the absinthe market, the prestigious Édouard Pernod company. While the highly competitive market of alcoholic beverages, marked by the confrontation between fermented beverages represented by wine and distilled beverages such as absinthe and its assimilated products, seemed to condemn it to disappear, it managed to resist and to develop thanks to its territorial anchoring, to its family business culture and to successful strategies of internal and external growth and diversification of products and brands.
Topographie et architecture des monastères féminins en Aquitaine (XIe-XIIIe siècle) : un dossier lacunaire
Authors: Gensbeitel Christian
Published: November 2023

The inventory of women’s monasteries founded before the end of the 11th century in southern France, published in 1976 by Jean Verdon, is the starting point for this attempt to synthesize the topography and architecture of these establishments in the Aquitaine region, supplemented by the new foundations of the 11th and 12th centuries. The territory covered is limited to the ecclesiastical provinces of Bordeaux and Auch, to which is added the diocese of Limoges, which was under the jurisdiction of the archbishops of Bourges but which was culturally and politically linked to the duchy of Aquitaine, controlled by the counts of Poitiers. The aim here is to evoke the material arrangements of these establishments, their churches and the buildings housing their communities during the Romanesque period, which is generally considered to be a sort of apogee of monastic architecture, between the eleventh and thirteenth centuries. The main difficulty of such an undertaking lies in the fragmentary nature of the material elements still preserved, which requires recourse to modern sources and to information provided by archaeology
Beaulieu, une maison féminine de l’Ordre de l’Hôpital de Saint-Jean de Jérusalem dans le diocèse de Cahors (XIIIe-XIVe siècles).
Authors: Mattalia Yoan
Published: November 2023

El convento Beaulieu es una fundación femenina de la Orden de San Juan de Jerusalén fundada en la diócesis de Cahors en 1259. Procede de la transformación de un establecimiento caritativo, el hospital de Pech Vilauzès, creado por miembros de la familia de Themines en 1235 o 1236 en un convento femenino después de su donación e la Orden del Hospital. El convento está controlado en gran parte por miembros de la familia de Themines. Acoge una comunidad de monjas bajo el gobierno de une priora a menudo oriunda de la familia fundadora. No sometidas a clausura estricta, las monjas hospitalarias obedecen a la regal de la orden y se les da estatutos específicos en 1298 que definen, en particular, los modos de elección de la priora. Llevan en Beaulieu une vida contemplativa y tienen también actividades caritativas en el hospital del convento. Además, tienen un papel destacado en la liturgia funeraria y en la conservación de la memoria de la familia fundadora de Themines cuyo sepulcro está en la iglesia de San Juan Bautista.

Published: November 2023

Introduction: The purpose of this in vitro study is to ascertain how NovaMin and Er,Cr:YSGG laser radiation affect the remineralization of primary tooth enamel lesions. Methods: 40 main teeth served as the study’s sample size. These teeth were allocated into five groups at random. The first group served as a negative control (artificial saliva); the second group served as a positive control (APF gel 1.23%); the third group NovaMin, the fourth group Er,Cr:YSGG laser, the fifth group Er,Cr:YSGG laser and finally, the application of NovaMin. For the purpose of measuring microhardness, all samples were submitted to the dental materials laboratory three times. Results: The collected data were compared using the SPSS 28 program between the baseline measurement, after demineralization, and after remineralization. The data were analyzed using ANCOVA and Bonferroni tests. All groups demonstrated a considerable increase in microhardness as compared to the negative control group (P<0.05). With the exception of the third and fourth groups, there was no discernible difference in the rise in microhardness between the other groups. The third and fourth groups were compared, and the results revealed that NovaMin had a greater impact than laser therapy alone (P=0.023). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis backed up the findings. Conclusion: In comparison to using the Er,Cr:YSGG laser alone, using NovaMin alone can speed up the remineralization of erosion lesions on the surface of primary teeth.

Published: November 2023

The article reflects the results of scientific research aimed at developing the necessary conditions for assessing the provision of innovative infrastructure to forestry enterprises. Today, forestry enterprises have encountered difficulties in obtaining the resources necessary to carry out innovative production. A system for assessing indicators is proposed, based on the use of multicriteria factor dependence. This system groups factors that influence the level of innovative development of timber industry enterprises and goals aimed at providing an effective innovation infrastructure. The matrix system presents a factor dependence, reflecting the degree of influence of factors on each goal of innovative development set by the enterprise. The goals are ranked according to the degree of importance and their possible achievement by the enterprise. An assessment of the influence of factors on the set goals is given. The article also presents the results of an analysis of innovation indicators, such as the volume of introduced innovations, the level of implementation of environmental innovations, and the share of enterprises that effectively implement a set of technological innovations. Based on the results of the work, a generalized matrix system of factor dependence of forestry enterprises is presented, in which the values for all three groups of enterprises (woodworking, pulp and paper industry, furniture industry) are summed up, and reasoned conclusions are drawn.
FORMATION OF A DYNAMIC MODEL OF ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION
Authors: Kuksova Irina , Kuznecov Sergey
Published: November 2023

The rate of environmental change facing modern society has been accelerating in recent decades. The paper presents a dynamic model of environmental management taking into account environmental restrictions on the use of resources in a local area of the natural environment. The main reasons for these changes to support management decisions include low barriers to entry and significant changes in the boundaries between markets, the frequent emergence of new technologies, crises and political changes. In this regard, management theory and practice are aimed at the constant search for a management system capable of responding to the challenges of the modern market context. In such conditions, market entities can often be only temporary in nature, which significantly complicates the practice of corporate governance The result is a variety of concepts that improve upon previous models in process control The authors proposed a dynamic model of environmental management based on the dynamic capacity of natural resources, where special attention is paid to the management of the environmental planning process and its dynamic capabilities, expressed in promising directions for the rationalization of environmental management, which means searching for and maintaining a dynamic basis. The article examines the literature review and practical experience of using dynamic management models in the environmental management system.

Introduction. Testing for antibodies to the causative agent COVID-19 is not mandatory for donor blood or its components. It is unknown whether transfusion of plasma-containing blood components from seropositive donors is a safe procedure especially for immunocompromised hematological patients.

   Aim. To assess the frequency of adverse reactions and complications in hematological patients after transfusions of plasma-derived blood products harvested from anti-SARS-CoV-2 positive and negative donors.

   Material and Methods. 9152 transfusions of components harvested from anti-SARS-CoV-2 positive and negative donors were carried out from April 29, 2020 to January 21, 2022 at the NMRC for Hematology. Post-transfusion reactions and complications were analyzed in 576 hematological patients. 2059 plasma units, 327 cryosupernatant plasma units and 6766 cryoprecipitate doses were assessed. The occurrence of adverse reactions (hyperthermia) and complications within two hours after transfusion were evaluated.

   Results. Among 9152 blood units, anti-SARS-CoV-2 were detected in 2660 (29 %) cases and 6492 (71 %) were antibodies free. The analysis of adverse reactions and complications showed no significant differences in the incidence of adverse reactions in recipients after anti-SARS-CoV-2 positive and negative blood unit transfusions.

   Conclusion. There were no significant differences in the number of post-transfusion reactions when using donor blood components (fresh frozen plasma, cryosupernatant plasma, cryoprecipitate) obtained from donors in whose blood antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 were detected or not detected. Plasma-derived blood products from seropositive donors with a high degree of probability can be used to correct the plasma hemostasis path in hematological patients along with components prepared from seronegative donors.

Introduction. Relapses of primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBСL) with involvement of the central nervous system (CNS) are usually incurable. Therapy tactics in patients with PMBCL with relapse in the CNS have not been defined.

   Aim: to present clinical observations of the treatment of relapses of PMBCL with CNS involvement using the “R-PML-CNS-2022” protocol.

   Main findings. Two clinical observations of patients with relapses of PMBCL with involvement of the CNS are presented. In both cases, the “R-PML—CNS-2022” protocol was used as a second-line treatment, and a complete remission of the disease was achieved. In the first case, within 6 months after auto-HCT, maintenance therapy with pembrolizumab was performed. Complete remission of the disease continues for 15 months. In the second observation, maintenance therapy with pembrolizumab was also started, however, due to the development of autoimmune complications after 2 cycles, treatment was discontinued. Complete remission of the disease continues for 13 months.

   Conclusion. The development of a new strategy for the treatment of relapses of PMLCL with CNS lesion according to the “R-PML—CNS-2022” protocol is a potentially curative approach in this group of patients.

O presente relato abrange uma experiência de Estágio Supervisionado em Língua Inglesa ocorrido no decorrer do curso de Licenciatura em Letras - Português e Inglês do Instituto Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (IFRS). A prática de docência deu-se com uma turma de 2º ano do Ensino Médio Técnico Federal. O ensino da língua estrangeira pautou-se na temática Fast Fashion, enquanto indústria que afeta negativamente o entremeio socioambiental. Houve, para o planejamento, uma análise prévia dos interesses e das necessidades linguístico-pedagógicas da turma (Needs Analysis). Objetivou-se desenvolver a capacidade crítica dos discentes, através de seu envolvimento em debates reflexivos concernentes a questões de relevância sociocultural. Focalizou-se, também, o ensino contextualizado da Língua Inglesa, partindo de variados gêneros textuais para abarcar diferentes práticas de linguagem. A abordagem teórico-metodológica fundamenta-se, sobretudo, em Freire (1992) e Libâneo (2002), bem como na LDB (1996) e na BNCC (2018). A experiência do estágio apresentou-se transformadora, uma vez que oportunizou, ainda na formação inicial, o fazer pedagógico na condição de educador. A vivência dessa prática evidenciou a relevância da relação professor-aluno e da riqueza ímpar que permeia a sala de aula.

“Mesmerize” merupakan program magazine televisi yang menampilkan berbagai informasi dan hal-hal menarik dengan tema healthy lifestyle. Tujuan dari produksi karya ini adalah menciptakan sebuah program magazine televisi yang menerapkan variasi shot untuk mendukung kualitas program tersebut. Berdasarkan beberapa karya yang telah diamati, sebuah program yang tidak menerapkan variasi shot mengakibatkan gambar yang monoton dan tidak menarik. Untuk menerapkan variasi shot yang baik, diperlukan beberapa teknik pengambilan gambar antara lain simple shot, complex shot, dan developing shot. Simple shot bertujuan untuk memberikan dan memperjelas informasi dengan pemilihan komposisi yang tepat. Complex shot merupakan teknik pengambilan gambar dengan pergerakan kamera tanpa memindah kamera itu sendiri seperti panning dan tilting dengan tujuan memperjelas informasi. Developing shot adalah teknik pengambilan gambar dengan merubah posisi kamera dengan tujuan memberikan kesan dinamis pada gambar. Dengan menerapkan tiga teknik variasi shot tersebut, maka dapat tercipta sebuah karya magazine televisi yang informatif, menarik, dan menghibur.
