Authors: V. Latha , S. Nagaraj , Ahmed T. M. Tanvir , P. Ramurthy
Published: July 2022

Background: Pneumonia is an infection of the pulmonary parenchyma, causing significant morbidity and mortality. Inflammation potentiates hypoalbuminemia. CRP is an acute phase reactant produced by the liver in response to inflammation, which depends on severity of illness. Serum albumin concentration as a negative acute phase reactant, changes with change in CRP(C-reactive protein) value. Objectives: To study the prognostic significance of commonly used biomarkers serum Albumin level and C - reactive protein in hospitalized patients with Community Acquired Pneumonia. Methodology: The prospective study was conducted in a hospital affiliated to Vijayanagara Institute of Medical Science, Ballari. Patients with signs and symptoms of CAP were hospitalized based on a CURB-65 score. After informed consent, all relevant data was collected. Clinical examination and laboratory parameters i.e. Serum albumin & C - reactive protein levels on day 1, 3 & 7/discharge were carried out. The values of serum albumin & C - reactive protein were analyzed with the clinical profile and outcome in these study groups. Results: In our study, CAP was more commonly seen among the age group of 61-70 yrs (27%). COPD was a major associated co-morbidity (50%) and smoking was an important risk factor (70%). The majority had a CURB 65 score of >3-5 on admission (64%). Out of 50 patients, 26% of them had severe hypoalbuminemia (<2.5 mg/dl) and 58% of them had mild hypoalbuminemia (2.5-3.5 mg/dl) on day 1 of admission. When serum albumin levels at the time of admission were analyzed for the time of discharge, there was significant change (P=0.025) noted, i.e an increase in serum albumin levels were seen in all patients who had clinical signs of resolution. 38% of patients had serum CRP levels <100 mg/l and 40 % had 101-200 mg/l and 22% of them had levels > 200 mg/l. There was decrease in CRP level at the time of discharge (p=0.001). Serum Albumin levels and CRP levels showed significant change from day 1 to the day of discharge (p=0.025 and P=<0.001) respectively. ICU requirement, need for mechanical ventilation and other outcomes correlated well with serum albumin levels (p=0.021, p=0.004, p=0.003 respectively). Conclusion: Our study showed a history of smoking, COPD and hypoalbuminemia at presentation were major risk factors present for CAP. Patients with severe hypoalbuminemia had high morbidity and mortality in the form of ICU requirement, need for mechanical ventilation, complications and death. CRP serves as an important marker of inflammation whose series levels reduce significantly with cure / resolution of pneumonia. Thus, serum albumin levels and C reactive protein can be used as a prognostic biomarker in community acquired pneumonia.

Published: July 2022

Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) is characterized by high dry matter (DM) yield and a high nutritive value. It has a higher concentration of soluble carbohydrate than lucerne and its protein is less degradable in the rumen than lucerne protein. The aim of this study was to quantify the main crude protein (CP) and carbohydrate (CHO) fractions of a tetraploid (4n, cv K-32) and a diploid (2n, cv K-39) red clover cultivar harvested at three stages of development in the spring growth. Results showed that the cultivar and stage of development had a large impact on chemical composition and the protein and carbohydrate fractions determined by the Cornell Net Carbohydrate and Protein System (CNCPS). The rapidly degradable protein fraction (PA) was significantly higher in the tetraploid (272 to 287 g kg-1 CP with advancing plant development) than in the diploid red clover cultivar (214 to 268 g kg-1 CP). Rumen degradable carbohydrate concentration was not affected by cultivar but it was significantly influenced by the stage of development. The concentration of rumen degradable protein decreased from 726 to 655 g kg-1 CP with advancing plant development in the diploid red clover cultivar. In conclusion, the tetraploid red clover cultivar was higher in CP, its protein was more rapidly degradable, and it was characterized by lower concentrations of lignin and unavailable carbohydrate fractions than the diploid cultivar.

Published: July 2022

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis gerakan sosial yang dilakukan oleh organisasi Aliran Kebatinan Perjalanan (AKP), dalam memperjuangkan pengakuan keyakinan mereka di Indonesia. Masalah ini menarik karena, Mahkamah Konstitusi saat ini telah memberikan layanan kependudukan dan pencatatan sipil pada para penghayat kepercayaan untuk mengisi kolom agama sesuai dengan keyakinan dan kepercayaannya sesuai yang diatur di dalam Surat Keputusan MK No. 97/PUU-XIV/2016. Hal ini merupakan bukti dari keberhasilan kelompok aliran kepercayaan memperjuangkan keyakinannya dan melepaskan diri dari 6 agama yang dipaksakan oleh negara. Salah satu organisasi aliran kepercayaan yang aktif memperjuangkan hak beragama dan keyakinannya adalah organisasi Aliran Kebatinan Perjalanan yang ada di Kota Bandung. Perjuangan dan keberhasilan tersebut memperlihatkan adanya gerakan sosial yang terorganisir agar tujuan yang diinginkan organisasi Aliran Kebatinan Perjalanan tercapai. Artikel ini menganalisis hal tersebut dengan menggunakan Teori mobilisasi sumber daya (Resources Mobilisation Theory) Anthony Oberschall sebagai pisau analisis dalam artikel ini. Artikel ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan Teknik observasi, wawancara, dan studi literatur. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pembentukan organisasi AKP merupakan wujud dari gerakan sosial. Sedangkan keberhasilan organisasi AKP ditentukan dari pemaksimalan berbagai sumber daya organisasi AKP baik secara internal maupun eksternal. Salah satu faktor terbesar dari keberhasilan gerakan sosial AKP adalah kemampuan dalam memobilisasi sumber daya dengan baik dan pemanfaatan peluang politik yang dilakukan oleh organisasi ini
Gone with the Spud: The Political, Economic, and Cultural Effects of the Irish Potato Famine
Authors: Winslow Abigail
Published: July 2022

The Irish Potato Famine of the late 1840s caused the deaths of a third of Ireland’s population. But it also created a resilience in the Irish, and a sense of national pride that has shaped them into the nation that they are today. The Famine has become well known for dispersing a third of Ireland’s population into other countries, like America; for the third that remained, they united together in their common hatred of Great Britain, whom they blamed for causing the deaths of their countrymen. This traumatic event reinforced the identity of the Irish by creating a cultural memory, and a sense of pride in their culture that made them different from their enemy, Great Britain. This paper will explore how the political, economic, and social events during the Irish Potato Famine influenced and contributed to the national and cultural identity of Ireland. Drawing on a range of sources from songs and art to government documents, this paper explores popular culture before, during, and after the famine to analyze how the Famine has continued to influence Irish culture today.
Overview of Drug Treatment Court
Authors: LoCicero Sheridan
Published: July 2022

Drug treatment courts were established in Florida in the late 1980’s and have been increasing in numbers ever since. Due to this rapid expansion, researchers and evaluators have had difficulty keeping up with the growth. For a comprehensive program evaluation to take place, data collection methods need to be reevaluated for better analysis of the information. This barrier, along with the fact that most drug treatment courts are tailored to their own area, makes it harder to generalize results that have been gathered. This factor is important when acting in one’s own community to help effectively grow drug treatment court. These special courts take first-time, non-violent offenders and work with them using treatment and rehabilitation models with the goal of reducing the recidivism rate. A core concept of drug treatment courts is the individual’s accountability and responsibility to participate in the program, whether introduced to the program voluntarily or involuntarily. Barriers are always going to be present for some individuals, however, it is the responsibility of the drug treatment court, as a team, to help them by problem-solving and adapting the program to their needs. Subsequent to the rapid expansion, limited data collection methods, and various other barriers, further research is necessary to develop more comprehensive models that can be utilized so that program participants are provided every opportunity for success in the program and a reduction in the recidivism rate. The purpose of this article is to provide a brief overview of the current literature and explain the various influences on and components of drug treatment court.
Everglades National Park’s Historical Impact on Native Americans in South Florida
Authors: Ryan Katherine
Published: July 2022

This research examines the consequences of Everglades National Park’s establishment on the Seminole and Miccosukee Nations. Guiding questions used are: How did Seminole rights change following the park’s establishment? How did the park’s establishment influence Florida economy and tourism during this period? My research argues that as a result of establishing Everglades National Park, Miccosukee and Seminole citizens experienced changes to land use rights that affected their legal sovereignty and economic opportunities in South Florida. Using federal and state government analyses, legal rulings, and newspaper articles I assert that both nations’ sovereignty was affected. Environmental history is well saturated with ecological histories of the Everglades and human histories of parks like Yellowstone and Yosemite. This research asserts the much-needed human emphasis of the Everglades that is often missing in the literature of the park and highlights the effects of past rulings and decisions that still deeply impact Miccosukee and Seminole economics, rights, and boundaries today.
Developing Techniques for Rigging and Motion Capture to Simplify 3D Animation
Authors: Humphrey Angela , Adams Joseph , Hoetzlein Rama
Published: July 2022

Our project focused on finding ways to simplify 3D animation by streamlining the rigging process and by using motion capture data. Rigging is a method of creating a “skeleton” for a 3D model to be manipulated and animated while motion capture uses recorded movements to animate a 3D character in movies and video games. Previous methods such as manual rigging and keyframe animation are time consuming and difficult for novice animators to learn. We sought a faster approach that would allow us to teach 3D animation to beginner students in a single semester. Using a more efficient rigging process and multiple motion capture sources, we have created an online library of motion-ready 3D character rigs and a variety of pre-captured animations for use. Our rigs can be animated by beginners in less than five minutes and were used to support the first course in 3D Animation at Florida Gulf Coast University.

Authors: Gois Jackson , Bento Mosconi Teily Cristiane
Published: July 2022

Este artigo aborda a influência de projetos extracurriculares de ensino sobre as concepções de experimentação em atividades de estágio curricular supervisionado de licenciandos em química de uma universidade pública do interior do estado de São Paulo. Fundamentados na concepção sociocultural de ferramenta cultural, descrevemos de que maneira os licenciandos internalizaram as concepções sobre experimentação, em uma direção mais didática ou técnica. Com base na Análise Textual Discursiva (ATD), analisaram-se as falas dos licenciandos em uma apresentação de seminário a partir de categorias emergentes. Observamos que os licenciandos que participaram de projetos extracurriculares de ensino na graduação apresentaram a maior parte de suas falas em categorias consideradas didáticas. De maneira semelhante, licenciandos que participavam do segundo ano de estágio curricular supervisionado também apresentaram mais falas direcionadas a aspectos didáticos, comparado a licenciandos ainda no primeiro ano de estágio. Com isso, constatamos que a participação de licenciandos em estágios curriculares supervisionados e projetos extracurriculares de ensino modifica sensivelmente suas concepções em uma direção didática.

Cet article met en lumière les tendances en matière de cancer tirées des résultats du rapport Statistiques canadiennes sur le cancer 2021. Ces tendances ont été mesurées à l’aide de la variation annuelle en pourcentage (VAP) des taux d’incidence normalisés selon l’âge. Globalement, les taux d’incidence du cancer sont en baisse (−1,1 %), mais avec des variations en fonction du type de cancer et du sexe du patient. Ainsi, chez les hommes, les plus fortes baisses par année ont été observées pour le cancer de la prostate (−4,4 %), le cancer colorectal (−4,3 %), le cancer du poumon (−3,8 %), la leucémie (−2,6 %) et le cancer de la thyroïde (−2,4 %). Chez les femmes, les diminutions les plus marquées ont été observées pour le cancer de la thyroïde (−5,4 %), le cancer colorectal (−3,4 %) et le cancer de l’ovaire (−3,1 %).
The National Innovation System in a catching-up country: empirical evidence based on micro data of a Triple Helix in Poland
Authors: Świadek Arkadiusz , Dzikowski Piotr , Gorączkowska Jadwiga , Tomaszewski Marek
Published: July 2022

Research background: There are two main directions for the research of the national innovation system (NIS): the international comparison of macro data from national statistic offices or specific micro research restricted mostly to analysing selected issues. There is a lack of empirical studies regarding the national innovation system as a whole based on micro raw data and using statistical models. Purpose of the article: To identify and evaluate the impact of the triple helix (an input and output approach) on the NIS in Poland, including internal interactions between industry, science and government. Methods: A questionnaire surveys were conducted by the authors over the past five  years in 6,284 manufacturing enterprises. The multifactor stepwise logistics regression forward was used to evaluate what, where and how effectively the NIS institutions in catching-up and medium-sized countries such as Poland are working. Findings & value added: The NIS of Poland is a complicated and non-mature system. Some parts of the network are effective, while others are not. It is noted that cooperation between enterprises stimulates innovation to a greater extent than cooperation with scientific institutions and public administration. The vertical supply chain is the main driver of NIS in Poland. Domestic scientific institutions have an impact that is often short-term, fragmented, and non-continuous, though it can be strong from time to time. Strangely, organizations with low knowledge potential support industry innovation activity more efficiently and in a more organised way than science institutes, excluding foreign ones. For catching-up countries, this is an important bridging of the knowledge gap - it turns out that the quantity and quality of domestic knowledge in the national innovation system is inefficient. Scientific institutions need to achieve sufficient critical mass to stimulate innovative activity. The value of the conclusions is underlined by the fact that the analyses were based on micro data, which allowed to capture the relationships between the different elements of the triple helix.
LA REPRÉSENTATION CARTOGRAPHIQUE DES ETHNIES À L'ÉCOLE : À LA CROISÉE DU RÉCIT NATIONAL MULTI-SITUÉ ET DES APPROCHES SCIENTIFIQUES?
Authors: TIMÉRA Mamadou Bouna
Published: July 2022

This article highlights the cartographic methods of ethnic group at school. The study uses the corpus of school geography (texts, maps, iconographic documents) analyzed on the basis of school practices and reference knowledges. The study shows school as an enunciating pole of the nation like scientific and political circles. In fact, School as an institution stands out from political and administrative fields, for ethnic group is built like a social body with a meaning. Moreover, even if school reproduces the essentialist logic the ethnic groups of Senegalese scholars, school shows with cartography some modes of representation that submit the analysis of the ethnic fact to learning objectives which deal with discovery, specification and description.
A gardneri többszörös intelligencia és Franz Kett pedagógiájának metszéspontjai
Authors: SZÉNÁSI Lilla
Published: July 2022

Intersections between the Gardnerian Multiple Intelligence and Franz Kett’s Pedagogy. This paper focuses on possible ways of education in faith during the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftermath. During the period of online education, one could rely on the knowledge and application of Gardner’s theory of multiple intelli-gences in faith education as well, whilst the use of Kett’s pedagogy helps to ex-perience, build or rebuild, and deepen our community with God and with each other. The first part of the paper briefly outlines the concept of intelligence and then describes Howard Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences. It gives prac-tical examples of possible ways to educate the catechumens. The second part de-scribes the emergence of Franz Kett’s pedagogy, his vision and his main con-cepts, including its starting points and methodological structure. It briefly pre-sents the floor picture as a specific method of Kett’s pedagogy. The third part summarizes the points of encounter between the Gardnerian multiple intelli-gences and Kett’s pedagogy, thus bringing into motion not only the intellectual but also the emotional intelligence.

The Relationship between Gratitude and Mental Health among Pregnant Women. BACKGROUND – Becoming a mother, that is the forty weeks of pregnancy, is a highlighted stage of life for a woman. It is a defining period for both the mother and her child, who is to be born. Furthermore, gestation can be under-stood as a normative crisis as well, during which numerous psychological prob-lems may evolve. Therefore, the preservation of mental health and support pro-vided for women are especially important in prenatal care. GOALS – The purpose of this study is to examine the role of gratitude, appreci-ation, subjective well-being, and social support – as momentous constructs of health psychology – in assisting mental health in the lives of pregnant women and to explore the relations between these variables. METHODS – 79 pregnant women participated in our online, qualitative inves-tigation; 36 of them had been writing gratitude diaries for 4 weeks. We com-pared the questionnaires’ results (filled out both before and after the interven-tion) of the experimental group (n = 36) with the results of the control group (n = 43) similarly filled out on two different occasions. The following instruments were used in our study: Gratitude, Resentment, and Appreciation Test; Appre-ciation Scale; Subjective Well-Being Questionnaire; MOS Social Support Sur-vey. RESULTS – Higher appreciation and dispositional gratitude correlates with a higher sense of subjective well-being and a better perception of social support. In the experimental group, writing a gratitude diary was followed by a signifi-cant positive change in all questionnaires: the scores for gratitude, appreciation, subjective well-being, and social support increased. CONCLUSIONS – Dispositional gratitude that can be improved by such a simple intervention as writing a gratitude diary is a useful means of supporting the mental health of pregnant women and thereby of preserving and promoting their psychological and physical well-being. Besides medical healthcare, ex-pectant women are in particular need of professional mental support, wherefore it is important not only to maintain their physical health but also to introduce new methods that assist mentally the well-being of pregnant persons.

Old and New Reflections on the Way Forward from the Crisis Ninety Years after the Revision of Ourselves. The topic of this paper is in line with the conference, which aims to bring together responses to crisis situations. The adjectives “old and new” in the title suggest that the impulses to move forward presented in the article come from different periods and that the questioning spans several eras. The point of departure and the basic text is Sándor Makkai’s 1931 book, Magunk revíziója (The Revision of Ourselves), followed in chronological order by Sándor Karácsony’s Ocsúdó magyarság (Awakening Hungarians), first published in 1942, and, finally, Eva Edith Eger’s book Decision, which was a bestseller for a few years. The first two authors, a Reformed theologian and a professor of pedagogy, seek a way out for Hungarians struggling with the crisis of minority fate and a mutilated country, while the third one, a Hungarian-born American psychologist who survived Auschwitz, uses the example of herself and her patients to show the universal possibility of moving on. Old and new reflections converge in the fact that when we examine the events of the past, it only makes sense to look in the mirror, to acknowledge and admit our own mistakes and errors because this gives us a chance to eliminate them, to overcome harmful habits. The past can be a deceptive mirage, and it can also enslave the retrospective, so it is worth considering the wise realization that we should not be enslaved by the actions of others, the movers of events independent of us, because they can pull us down like seaweed, paralyse us, plunge us into self-pity, perpetual victimhood, or the vortex of revenge. The secret of moving forward is to look to the future after self-examination, to seek the near and distant goals to which every small step, every task done with good cheer brings the pure-hearted, morally strengthened man – reconciled to God and man – closer. The survivors and those who move on are people of prospectivity, of diligent future building, rather than of a barren retrospective.
Identity, Ethnicity, and Religious Changes in Bihor County, Romania. Reflections on the Changes of Romanian and Hungarian Christian Denominations in Bihor County during the 20ᵗʰ Century. The Case of Érselénd/Șilindru
Authors: KOVÁCS Ábrahám , SZILÁGYI Ferenc
Published: July 2022

The purpose of the research is to offer a three-dimensional examination of a chosen population’s make-up, examining ethnicity, native language, and religious denomination during the 20th century in the Romanian Bihor County. This pa-per examines the changing process of how identity in Érselénd/Șilindru was influenced by outside forces coming from different social, political, religious, and even economic directions. The village was chosen, as it was originally a Ruthenian-speaking Greek Catholic settlement that moved to the Hungarian Kingdom centuries ago. They kept their religious identity but became Hungarian-speaking people. Then, during the twentieth century, this homogenous settlement, due to external political, historical, and economic influences, experienced a profound change to a degree that had not been predicted. However, this frag-mentation into various Christian denominations, the changes of language and ethnic identity clearly demonstrates the complex history of the geopolitical region of Partium, Romania.
Sebestyén Jenő, a történelmi kálvinizmus és a Soli Deo Gloria Református Diákszövetség
Authors: LÁNYI Gábor
Published: July 2022

Jenő Sebestyén (1884–1950), the Historical Calvinism, and the Soli Deo Gloria Student Alliance. This paper aims to give an introduction into the origins of Jenő Sebestyén’s the-ological movement, the “Historical Calvinism”, while it discusses Sebestyén’s formative role in the creation and later development of the Soli Deo Gloria Stu-dent Alliance (SDG). Historical Calvinism can be understood as the Hungarian adaptation of Abraham Kuyper’s (1837–1920) Neo-Calvinism. Following Dutch examples, Sebestyén inspired his students, especially Zoltán Töltéssy (1900–1932), at the Budapest Reformed Seminary to form a confessional-minded student movement in order to serve the evangelization of the Youth and the spiritual renewal of the Reformed Church in Hungary in the 1920s. Soon, the SDG would become widely popular among high school and university students, attain the support of the church officials, and pursue many debates with the inter-confessional stu-dent missionary organizations.
A Soli Deo Gloria és a Magyar Testvéri Közösség kapcsolata
Authors: SZEKÉR Nóra
Published: July 2022

The Relationship between the Soli Deo Gloria Student Association and the Hungarian Fraternal Community.  The Reformed Youth Organization, i.e. the Soli Deo Gloria Student Association, and the Hungarian Fraternal Community were closely related. The Community was a secret organization with an anti-Nazi stance and was dissatisfied with the social system of the Horthy era. Soli Deo Gloria embraced the social problems and opposed Nazism. The common approach has created cooperation. The Hungarian Fraternal Community as a secret organization became the main de-fendant in the Conspiracy Trial of 1947. It was accused of wanting to overthrow the republic and was called a terrorist organization. The presentation of the co-operation between Soli Deo Gloria and the Community aims to reveal the true nature of the latter. The Hungarian Fraternal Community wanted to provide help from the background and not to enforce its will.
Hidden treasures – a first study on the unexplored diversity of water mites (Acari; Hydrachnidia) from Belize
Authors: Goldschmidt Tom , Schmidt Jessica C. , Boles Ed
Published: July 2022

Here we provide first data on the apparently rich water mite fauna of Belize. In this work 27 genera in 14 families were registered at ten sites. The state of knowledge on water mites of El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, and Southern Mexico (South of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec) is described and similarities with the presented data are discussed. In total, 23 families, 61 genera are now known from Northern Central America, with one family (Hungarohydracaridae) and three genera (Santiagocarus, Neoaxona (Lamellaxona), Stygarrenurus) published for the first time from this region in the present study.

OBJECTIVE

To perform lipidomic analysis of surfactant and plasma from asthmatic and healthy horses.

ANIMALS

30 horses with clinical signs of asthma and 30 age-matched control horses.

PROCEDURES

Detailed history, physical examination, CBC, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) cytologies were obtained. Asthmatic horses were grouped based on their BALF inflammatory profile: severe equine asthma (SEA), mild equine asthma with neutrophilic airway inflammation (MEA-N), or mild equine asthma with eosinophilic airway inflammation (MEA-E). Each asthma group was assigned its own age-matched control group. Lipidomic analysis was completed on surfactant and plasma. Surfactant protein D (SP-D) concentrations were measured in serum and BALF.

RESULTS

SEA surfactant was characterized by a phospholipid deficit and altered composition (increased ceramides, decreased phosphatidylglycerol, and increased cyclic phosphatidic acid [cPA]). In comparison, MEA-N surfactant only had a decrease in select phosphatidylglycerol species and increased cPA levels. The plasma lipidomic profile was significantly different in all asthma groups compared to controls. Specifically, all groups had increased plasma phytoceramide. SEA horses had increased plasma cPA and diacylglycerol whereas MEA-N horses only had increased cPA. MEA-E horses had increases in select ceramides and dihydrocermides. Only SEA horses had significantly increased serum SP-D concentrations.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

The most significant surfactant alterations were present in SEA (altered phospholipid content and composition); only mild changes were observed in MEA-N horses. The plasma lipidomic profile was significantly altered in all groups of asthmatic horses and differed among groups. Data from a larger population of asthmatic horses are needed to assess implications for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment.

OBJECTIVE

To assess the feasibility and accuracy of using 2 methods for reduction and alignment of simulated comminuted diaphyseal tibial fractures in conjunction with 3-D–printed patient-specific pin guides.

SAMPLE

Paired pelvic limbs from 8 skeletally mature dogs weighing 20 to 35 kg.

METHODS

CT images of both tibiae were obtained, and 3-D reconstructions of the tibiae were used to create proximal and distal patient-specific pin guides. These guides were printed and used to facilitate fracture reduction and alignment in conjunction with either a 3-D–printed reduction guide or a linear type 1A external fixator. Postreduction CT images were used to assess the accuracy of pin guide placement and the accuracy of fracture reduction and alignment.

RESULTS

The 3-D–printed guides were applied with acceptable ease. Guides for both groups were placed with minor but detectable deviations from the planned location (P = .01), but deviations were not significantly different between groups. Fracture reduction resulted in similar minor but detectable morphological differences from the intact tibiae (P = .01). In both groups, fracture reduction and alignment were within clinically acceptable parameters for fracture stabilization by means of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE

Virtual surgical planning and fabrication of patient-specific 3-D–printed pin guides have the potential to facilitate fracture reduction and alignment during use of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis for fracture stabilization.
Carbon and Biodiversity Policies
Authors: Martins Pacheco Renata
Published: July 2022

Wildfires are a concern in many European countries, and they might occur more frequently given climate change. Carbon sequestration is an ecosystem service provided by forests that is affected by fires and is neglected in traditional markets. Recently, the European Union (EU) has created environmental policies that address climate change, wildfires, and biodiversity conservation through payment for ecosystem services schemes. This study aims to estimate the monetary carbon savings of avoiding wildfires in five Mediterranean countries using historical wildfire emissions data and the auction prices in the EU Carbon Market. Portugal is further studied since the country has a new ecosystem services payment policy. The results indicate that, by avoiding fires, the countries could have annual benefits in the order of millions of euros. For Portugal, the value of the policy incentive is inferior to the value of the carbon sequestration service provided by avoiding fires and could be reexamined.
