The Rise and Decline of the Liberal World Order and the Multilateral Trade System: A Critical-Constructivist Synthesis to International Regime Analysis
Authors: Altay Serdar
Published: May 2024

This article devises an analytical framework that synthesizes neo-Gramscian and social constructivist perspectives to dissect international regimes amid global hegemonic shifts. It portrays regimes as intersubjective constructs with unique social purposes within the broader hegemonic fabric, shaped by dominant ideologies and power distributions. The study examines the transition of the trade regime from General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) to World Trade Organization (WTO) through the Uruguay Round (1986-1994) and the Doha Round’s deadlock since 2001. The article posits that the Uruguay Round marked a pivotal hegemonic transformation, transitioning the regime from embedded liberalism to neoliberalism by transforming its social purpose, norms, and generative grammar. Yet, this shift, which precipitated a legitimacy crisis within the WTO and was exacerbated by the Doha Round’s failure to regenerate neoliberal hegemony with a fresh synthesis of free trade and sustainable development, arguably rendered the WTO directionless and contributed to the fragmentation of global trade governance amidst emerging regional pacts and varied ideological visions of economic liberalism.
A Novel 3D-Printed Gravity-Independent Air-Eliminating Filter for Rapid Intravenous Infusions
Authors: Formanek Arthur , Townsend Jacques , Ottensmeyer Mark P. , Kamine Tovy Haber
Published: May 2024

INTRODUCTION: The absence of a consistent downward G vector can make separation of gases from liquids challenging, such as in field medicine without stable upright equipment or during spaceflight. This limits the use of medical equipment and procedures like administration of intravenous (IV) fluids in microgravity and can make field medicine hazardous. Administering IV fluids and medications in microgravity requires a technique to separate air from the liquid phase. Current commercial filters for separation of gases are incompatible with high flow and blood. We present a novel filter designed to provide adequate air clearance without a consistent downward G vector.

METHODS: Inline air-eliminating filters were designed for use with IV fluid tubing in microgravity using computer-aided design software and printed using nylon 12 on an EOS Selective Laser Sintering 3D printer. A 0.2-μm membrane filter was adhered around a central, hollow pillar with external spiral baffles allowing separation and venting of air from the fluid. Results were compared against commercially available inline air-eliminating filters.

RESULTS: The 3D-printed filters outperformed the commercial filters in both percentage of air removed and flow rates. The centrifugal, baffled filter had flow rates that far exceeded the commercial filters during rapid transfusion.

DISCUSSION: IV fluid administration is an often underappreciated and a necessary basic requirement for medical treatment. An air-eliminating filter compatible with blood and rapid transfusion was developed and validated with crystalloid solutions to allow the successful administration of IV fluid and medication without a consistent downward G vector.

Authors: Altinbas Munise , Ozpınar Ayse , Akbaba Müslime , Nacaroglu Senay A. , Sargolzaeimoghaddam Mohammad , Sargolzaeimoghaddam Maral
Published: May 2024

BACKGROUND: In the literature, central serous retinopathy (CSR) accompanying solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) in a pilot has not been reported. In airline pilots, mass effect-related symptoms such as diplopia, ptosis, etc., seen with orbital tumors may endanger flight safety.

CASE REPORT: A 62-yr-old male commercial airline pilot presented with blurred vision in the right eye. He had been receiving treatment for 2 mo because of CSR. His visual acuity was 10/20 in the right eye and 20/20 in the left. During examination, ptosis and exophthalmos were noticed in the right eye. Ocular movements were free in all cardinal directions and there was downward displacement in the right eye. There was no diplopia. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a 1.5- to 2-cm well-defined contrast-enhancing mass in the lateral extraconal orbit. His medical flight certificate was suspended for 3 mo due to decreased visual acuity and superior visual defect. Superior orbitotomy was performed without any complication. Ptosis and CSR had regressed 1 wk after surgery. All systemic and ophthalmological examinations met aviation medical certificate requirements. He returned to flight on the condition of being checked every 3 mo. At the 1-yr follow-up, there was no sign of recurrences of SFT or CSR.

DISCUSSION: SFTs are slow-growing neoplasms that can manifest symptoms related to mass effect. In the current literature, there are no reported cases of the coexistence of orbital SFT and CSR or pilots able to resume flight duties only 1 wk after a successful orbitotomy and tumor resection surgery.

Modafinil Subjectively Does Not Impair Sleep in Aviators After a Period of Extended Wakefulness
Authors: Wingelaar-Jagt Yara Q. , Wingelaar Thijs T. , Riedel Willem J. , Ramaekers Johannes G.
Published: May 2024

INTRODUCTION: Modafinil is used as a countermeasure to limit the effects of fatigue in military aviation. However, literature is conflicting about its negative effects on subsequent sleep.

METHODS: This randomized placebo-controlled trial conducted by the Center of Man in Aviation of the Royal Netherlands Airforce is part of a larger study. It included 32 subjects (mean age 35 yr old, 84% male) who followed a normal daily routine and stayed awake the subsequent night. At midnight, all subjects received either 300 mg caffeine, 200 mg modafinil, or placebo. At the end of the test night, subjects were awake for a median period of 26 h. Afterwards, sleep questionnaires containing qualitative (Groningen Sleep Quality Scale) and quantitative parameters of sleep for the subsequent day (recovery sleep) and consecutive night (post-test sleep) were completed and statistically analyzed using Friedman and Wilcoxon signed rank tests.

RESULTS: A statistically significant difference in the reported recovery sleep was observed. The modafinil group slept 30% shorter than placebo, but sleep efficiency was not statistically different. Quantitatively post-test sleep did not vary statistically significantly between the three groups. However, Groningen Sleep Quality Scale scores were lower post-test than pre-test in the modafinil group, while this was not the case in the caffeine and placebo group.

DISCUSSION:This study found that modafinil subjectively does not negatively impact recovery sleep or subsequent nighttime sleep after an extended period of wakefulness and suggests it may decrease the need for recovery sleep compared to placebo or caffeine.

Functional Dyspepsia and Tricyclic Antidepressant Use in a Naval Flight Officer
Authors: Crutcher Robert , Kolasinski Nathan
Published: May 2024

BACKGROUND: Functional dyspepsia is a disorder of gut–brain interaction that has the potential to impact aviation performance. Proton pump inhibitors are well-tolerated but are only effective in one half of cases. Second-line treatments, including tricyclic antidepressants, are associated with drowsiness and are not routinely approved for use in aviators. We present a case of a Naval Flight Officer with functional dyspepsia who was successfully treated with amitriptyline and returned to flying status.

CASE REPORT: A 23-yr-old male Naval Flight Officer presented with postprandial fullness and epigastric pain. His symptoms were refractory to trials of acid suppression and lifestyle modification. An extensive evaluation by Gastroenterology, including upper endoscopy, did not reveal an organic cause of his symptoms and he was diagnosed with functional dyspepsia. The patient’s symptoms resolved with a trial of amitriptyline. Neuropsychological testing demonstrated no medication effect on cognitive performance. A waiver to resume flying duties on amitriptyline was submitted to the Naval Aerospace Medical Institute and was approved.

DISCUSSION: We present the second known waiver issued in U.S. Naval aviation history for the use of amitriptyline to treat a gastrointestinal disorder. Amitriptyline is not commonly waived due to the potential for unacceptable cognitive side-effects in the flight environment. However, neuropsychological testing to assess for a possible medication effect on performance can be used to inform an aeromedical disposition and, in this case, allowed for a return to flight status.

Published: May 2024

INTRODUCTION: An Australasian Airline’s Alcohol and Other Drug (AOD) Program demonstrates abstinence rates that exceed those of general AOD programs. The reasons for this are unclear. The purpose of this research was to develop a theory as to why this program is successful.

METHODS: A qualitative examination following grounded theory methodology was undertaken. AOD program patients and healthcare professionals were interviewed until content saturation was reached. Data analysis followed grounded theory to identify the key concepts associated with the program’s success.

RESULTS: The core theory that emerged highlighted the pivotal roles of a strong employee–company relationship, shared values, and a safety-focused culture in explicating the program’s success. This moves beyond the “carrot and stick” model of motivation, where belonging to this organization and safety consciousness serve as powerful drivers for abstinence. Challenges and barriers highlighted some unique challenges to the program in managing the coronavirus pandemic and the difference in approach to substance use in community spaces versus safety-critical employment.

DISCUSSION: This research expands the understanding of this AOD program’s success in a safety-critical industry, emphasizing the elements of a working relationship that are beyond positive or negative reinforcement. Future research should work to quantify and test the generalizability of these findings.

Oscillations of Hemodynamic Parameters Induced by Negative Pressure Breathing in Healthy Humans
Authors: Semenov Yury S. , Melnikov Ivan S. , Luzhnov Petr V. , Dyachenko Alexander I.
Published: May 2024

INTRODUCTION: Negative pressure breathing is breathing with decreased pressure in the respiratory tract without lowering pressure acting on the torso. We lowered air pressure only during inspiration (NPBin). NPBin, used to increase venous return to the heart, is considered a countermeasure against redistribution of body fluids toward the head during spaceflight. We studied NPBin effects on circulation in healthy humans with an emphasis on NPBin-induced oscillations of hemodynamic parameters synchronous with breathing. We propose an approach to analyze the oscillations based on coherent averaging.

METHODS: Eight men ages 24–42 yr participated in the NPBin and control series. During the series, to reproduce fluids shift observed under microgravity, subjects were supine and head down (−8°). Duration of NPBin was 20 min, rarefaction −20 cm H2O. Hemodynamic parameters were measured by Finometer. Electrical impedance measurements were used to estimate changes in blood filling of cerebral vessels.

RESULTS: Mean values of hemodynamic parameters virtually did not change under NPBin, but NPBin induced oscillations of the parameters synchronous with respiration. Peak-to-peak amplitude under NPBin were: mean arterial pressure, 4 ± 1 (mmHg); stroke volume, 7 ± 3 (mL); and heart rate, 4 ± 1 (bpm). Electrical impedance of the head increased during inspiration. The increase under NPBin was three times greater than under normal breathing.

DISCUSSION: Analysis of oscillations gives more information than analysis of mean values. NPBin induces short-term decrease in left ventricle stroke volume and arterial blood pressure during each inspiration; the decrease is compensated by increase after inspiration. NPBin facilitates redistribution of body fluids away from the head.

Vaccination serves as a straightforward and efficient method for preventing numerous infectious diseases in animals. One such disease is contagious caprine pleuropneumonia (CCPP), a severe lung ailment affecting small ruminants. This research aimed to create a vaccine utilizing Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capripneumoniae (Mccp) isolated from KPK, Pakistan. The local Mccp strain was rendered inactive alongside saponin, a substance, to produce the vaccine. The viable count of Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. capripneumoniae (Mccp) was determined to be 1x108 CFU/mL from the stock culture, with an estimated protein content of 0.2g/ml. The developed vaccine underwent testing and comparison with a standard CCPP vaccine in sheep to assess safety and efficacy. Twelve experimental sheep were divided into three groups: A, B, and C. Group A received the new vaccine, group B received the standard vaccine, and group C acted as the control. Groups A and B were further split into two subsets: one remained healthy while the other fell ill. The sheep were closely monitored for any changes over a 75-day post-vaccination period. Blood samples were analyzed for antibodies, showing average antibody GMT titers of 24.3, 84.4, and 128 on days 21, 28, and 35 post-immunization. By day 35, sheep vaccinated with the new vaccine displayed the highest antibody levels. The quadratic relationship (R2) indicated that both saponized and lyophilized vaccines were influenced by the number of days by 57.4% and 55%, respectively. The new vaccine demonstrated superior efficacy in sheep compared to the standard vaccine, with saponin playing a role in its effectiveness. The study successfully deactivated Mycoplasma mycoides subsp. capripneumoniae cells with autoclaved saponin, ensuring a sterile vaccine. In vivo testing in rabbits confirmed the vaccine's safety, while serum analysis in sheep revealed protective antibody responses, with the saponized vaccine eliciting higher titers than the lyophilized version. These findings suggest the potential efficacy of the saponized vaccine against Mccp infection

Pakistan is a more peculiar and hearty zone for almost all types of date palm cultivars but only District Khairpur Mirs of Sindh is regarded as “Khajeen jo dees”. The field survey-based research study was conducted at Taluka Kingri, District Khairpur during, 2017-18. The present study was sought on viz., Aseel, Nar-aseel, Fasly, Karbalian, Otakin, Daki-wari, Asul-kurh, Kashoo-wari, Asul-khurmo, Dedhi-wari, Lessoro, Begun-wari, Gajar-wari, Noori-wari and Nakul-kurh date palm varieties. All the novel already cultivated varieties were observed through random selection against the population density of Batrachedra amydraula. The pest data was taken every week from April, May and June months in both years of the study period. The pest data was gathered from 15 acres of cultivated Phoenix dactylifera orchards and prohibited to any insecticides. The maximum suspected pest infestation was found on Fasli cultivar whereas; the minimum infestation was recorded on Aseel. This commercial high-priced variety is found with high tolerance capability against salinity, drought, and upper range temperature conditions and hence recommended for cultivation. In the present study, it was frequently observed the appearance of the Batrachedra amydraula on all novel cultivars. The “Khajoor” is the cash crop and the main economic source of livelihood of this region but for a few decades, LDM has leads productivity reduction in terms of quantity and quality. The food security and socio-economic status of date palms are poorly documented in Pakistan. In this context for date palm crop security, more work should be carried on against population reduction of LDM.

Published: May 2024

Unlike Eastern Ukraine, the territorial belonging of Western Ukrainian lands was determined by contractual agreements between European states. Reforms in Austria, and later in Austria-Hungary, as opposed to Russia, were based on the principles of Enlightenment ideology and values such as freedom, human rights, constitutionalism, and parliamentarism. In the medium-term perspective, this led to the Western Ukrainian community developing a sense of national consciousness, political organization, and the values of European civilization by the end of the 19th century. In this article, based on a comparative analysis of the historical experience of the Ukrainian community within two empires – the Russian and the Austro-Hungarian – the evolution of the process of national identity is examined. The study was conducted using general methods of scientific knowledge, in particular, analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, abstraction, specification, and formalization. During the study, the author analyzed the peculiarities of the state and legal mechanisms for forming the ethnic identity of Ukrainians in the seventeenth and early twentieth centuries. The prerequisites of Ukrainians’ ethnic self-identification are considered. The author analyses the historical and cultural foundations of establishing the Ukrainian nation with the modern state-building process.

Published: May 2024

The research conducted by the Sumy branch of the Serhii Podolynskyi Scientific Society delves into the distinctive artistic legacy of the renowned Ukrainian writer Mykola Rudenko. This study sheds light on Rudenko's integration of ideas from the Ukrainian school of physical economy, which stood in stark contrast to Karl Marx's political economy. Mykola Rudenko, known for his literary prowess, often employed his fictional works to propagate his scientific, economic, and philosophical theories. The treatise “Formula of the Sun”, despite its limited recognition in 20th-century Ukrainian literature, holds a distinct place deserving comprehensive exploration. This novel not only showcases Rudenko's literary craftsmanship but also provides a platform for dissecting the literary discourse of the time. Through a combination of structural, narrative, and polemical elements, Rudenko articulates his worldview within the framework of physical economy. This study endeavors to elucidate the evolution of physical economy as a counterbalance to Marxian economics and to analyze its impact on Rudenko's prose, as evidenced by “Formula of the Sun”. Employing methodologies ranging from analysis and synthesis to a systematic and hermeneutic approach, the research aims to unravel the intricate interplay between literature and economic theory in Rudenko's work.

Published: May 2024

The key goal of this research paper is to analyze the specific features of legislative construction of Article 245 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, in particular, the method of statutory reflection of the elements of the subject matter and subjective side of this criminal wrongful act used therein, and also to study the relevant European experience. This will enable to develop proposals aimed at improving the provisions of current national criminal legislation, which are intended to guarantee the protection of flora by means of Ukrainian criminal law.
In the course of relevant comparative legal research and formulation of conclusions, the author used a number of different scientific methods of cognition, in particular: modeling, comparative, dialectical, systemic as well as statistical methods.
A conclusion has been reached that the newer version of the criminal law norm under study should, firstly, retain criminal liability for trespass to any type of vegetation, and not only violations relating to forests, and secondly, within its framework, liability for a) encroachment not only on green spaces around settlements, along railways, but also on any other green spaces, including those not located in appropriate places; b) destruction/damage of vegetation on lands of any category from among those provided for by the Land Code of Ukraine.
In addition, the authors argue that it is necessary to establish penalties for intentional and negligent destruction of flora that differ in severity, which is explained by the significantly different degree of public harmfulness.
Interplay of tradition and modernity in contemporary art practices

Published: May 2024

The purpose of this article is to examine the profound transformation of artistic consciousness in recent years, drawing attention to the relationship between traditional philosophy and art and modernity. Despite the instability of this connection, art today reflects the reality of our time and focuses on social problems and political revolutions. Using the method of literary analysis and processing of such databases as Scopus, Google scholar and Research Gate, the paper analyses the impact of postmodernism on contemporary art and culture, expanding the horizons of interpretation and understanding of the image in art. The results of the work revealed theories that enable each individual to express their ideas and views through art, creating new ways of perceiving the world around them. It has been shown that the interaction of tradition and modernity in contemporary art practices occurs through the image as a key element of postmodernism, which plays an important role in the modern world. Visual perceptions, symbolism, fantasy and imagination are combined in the work of artists and contribute to the formation of reflective thinking. Husserl's philosophy and approaches to the perception of entities helped to develop reflection and understanding of the contemporary socio-cultural environment through the image as a “condition of possibility” for perceiving the world. We conclude that the visual dimension reflects the social construction of the gaze and the atmosphere of our time, reflecting the unique spirit of the era in which we live. The result is a relevant and important understanding of the importance of the image in contemporary culture and the impact of tradition on society.

The paper considers the problem of interethnic tolerance in individuals. The theoretical analysis of the scientific literature shows that interethnic tolerance is an important indicator of the culture of international relations, has a deep axiological meaning, and is closely related to the value perceptions of the individual. The aggravation of interethnic issues in the youth student environment causes local conflicts, xenophobia, manifestations of nationalism, chauvinism, incitement to ethnic hatred, enmity, and intolerance between representatives of different nationalities. In this regard, the difficulty of developing interethnic tolerance when working with the younger generation is of particular importance, which makes it necessary to form a personal social position for young people and raise their level of interethnic culture. The purpose of our work is to study the individual psychological features of the manifestation of interethnic tolerance in a person. The psychodiagnostic complex consisted of the “Tolerance Index” and the “16 Personality Factor Questionnaire” by R. Cattell. The correlation analysis allowed us to confirm the existence of significant relationships between the indicators of interethnic tolerance and personality factors. The qualitative analysis and construction of profiles allowed us to provide psychological characteristics of individuals with different levels of the general indicator of interethnic tolerance.

The purpose of the article is a comprehensive analysis of problematic aspects of legal responsibility for human rights violations during armed conflicts. To achieve the goal, the following methods were used: systematic, logical and semantic, formal legal, comparative legal, formal logical, formal dogmatic, analysis. The article argues the approach according to which armed conflicts are characterized by a total violation of rights, among which the following fundamental rights are the most violated: the right to life, the right not to be subjected to torture, inhuman treatment, enforced disappearance and the right to a trial. It was concluded that these rights are the "immutable core of human rights" that cannot be violated, the characteristic features of which are: fundamentality, inalienability, inalienability and objective necessity. The development of additional regulatory and institutional guarantees for the protection of these rights and effective ways to bring perpetrators to criminal and international responsibility requires coordinated work of various institutions. Combating and counteracting human rights violations in time of armed conflict requires the united efforts of nations to eradicate aggressive warfare and the use of weapons.

Authors: Kumari Sangeeta
Published: May 2024

Yagya is a recognized and ancient Vedic worship practice in India and is considered the father of Indian culture. Therefore, the concept of Yagya has been beautifully and sweetly expressed in both Vedic literature and Laukik Sanskrit literature.
In ancient times, ordinary Yagyas played an important role in internal refinement and self-purification, while Mahayagyas were conducted to purify social life. However, when the need arose for the complete reconstruction of the nation and the environment, the tradition of Ashwamedh Yagya began on a global scale.
Ashwamedh is a grand spiritual experiment that enhances the happiness, peace, and prosperity of the nation. According to Pt. Shriram Sharma Acharya, "'Ashwa' symbolizes the large-scale evils in society, and 'Medha' signifies the eradication of all evils and flaws from their roots. Ashwamedh Yagya is associated with the Gayatri mantra for ecological balance and the purification of the spiritual environment." According to the Taittiriya Brahmana, Ashwamedh Yagya also aids in nation-building.
