Cardiovascular mechanisms of thyroid hormones and heart failure: Current knowledge and perspectives
Authors: Čulić Viktor
Published: May 2024

A multiple hormonal imbalance that accompanies heart failure (HF) may have a significant impact on the clinical course in such patients. The non-thyroidal illness syndrome (NTIS), also referred to as euthyroid sick syndrome or low triiodothyronine syndrome, can be found in about 30% of patients with HF. NTIS represents a systemic adaptation to chronic illness that is associated with increased cardiac and overall mortality in patients with HF. While conclusions on thyroid-stimulating hormone, free triiodothyronine, total and free thyroxine are currently unresolved, serum total triiodothyronine levels and the ratio of free triiodothyronine to free thyroxine seem to provide the best correlates to the echocardiographic, laboratory and clinical parameters of disease severity. HF patients with either hyper- or hypothyroidism should be treated according to the appropriate guidelines, but the therapeutic approach to NTIS, with or without HF, is still a matter of debate. Possible treatment options include better individual titration of levothyroxine therapy, combined triiodothyronine plus thyroxine therapy and natural measures to increase triiodothyronine. Future research should further examine the cellular and tissue mechanisms of NTIS as well as new therapeutic avenues in patients with HF.

Published: May 2024

Sodium glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2i) are antidiabetic medications with remarkable cardiovascular (CV) benefits proven by multiple randomised controlled trials and real-world data. These drugs are also useful in the prevention of CV disease (CVD) in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Although DM as such is a huge risk factor for CVD, the CV benefits of SGLT-2i are not just because of antidiabetic effects. These molecules have proven beneficial roles in prevention and management of nondiabetic CVD and renal disease as well. There are various molecular mechanisms for the organ protective effects of SGLT-2i which are still being elucidated. Proper understanding of the role of SGLT-2i in prevention and management of CVD is important not only for the cardiologists but also for other specialists caring for various illnesses which can directly or indirectly impact care of heart diseases. This clinical review compiles the current evidence on the rational use of SGLT-2i in clinical practice.
Phenomenology and intersubjectivity in political economy: an anti-perfectionist perspective
Authors: Solari Stefano
Published: May 2024

Anti-perfectionism is a philosophical perspective combining the view of man as an imperfect and non-self-sufficient being with a scientific epistemology based on imperfect knowledge. From an epistemological perspective, it has roots in Socrates and, more recently, in the post-empiricism of Giambattista Vico, up to phenomenology. From an anthropological perspective, it is a philosophical tradition based on an awareness of the constitutive dependency of individual performance and fulfilment of man on his interaction with others. It is conceived in opposition to the individualism and perfect rationality of most social theories. The paper analyses both the philosophical and the epistemological premises of anti-perfectionism as well as its consequences in terms of economic methodology. It will specifically develop the momentary intersection of phenomenology and Austrian economics. The theory of knowledge and of sense-making of phenomenology will be discussed with particular attention to intersubjectivity, which expresses anti-perfectionism well. The interpretations of human knowledge and action of Scheler and Schütz are analysed and connected to some contemporary streams of Austrian economics.

Published: May 2024

The paper presents a technological analysis, the phases and working methods, as well as the parameters of the processing cycle of a flange for a high-pressure hydraulic gear pump, which has the code FHP-05-12-24, made of polymeric material of ERTALON 66 SA type. The processing was made by cutting with the help of an educational milling and drilling machine with numerical control called EMCO MILL 55 CNC. The commands were programmed through a computer interface, using a conventional numerical code that commands the same kinematic chains, defining specific elements such as the geometric structure of the part, the technological conditions, the structure of the CNC kinematics, the calculation of the programmable coordinates, the parameters of the cutting tools and the parameters of the cutting regime. Based on the characteristics of the polymer material, but also on the identification of programmable functions and routines, the complete development cycle of the complex part processing operations was defined using special functions dedicated to the drilling and milling processes of the profiled surfaces. The part program structure contains program blocks associated with each stage and machining tools. The purpose of the study is to highlight, at an early stage, how students and young researchers can use computer numerical control (CNC) machines, which can be used as a support for the physical processing of complex surfaces, possibly obtained by digitizing and measuring data through a digital correlation based on specialized software products (e.g. GOM Scan, GOM Inspect, FEM analysis, etc.).

Trans Gençlerle Sosyal Hizmette Güçlenme Yaklaşımı: Bir Literatür Değerlendirmesi
Authors: Pak Halil , Cankurtaran Özlem
Published: May 2024

Trans gençler, toplumda baskı altında yaşayan dezavantajlı gruplar arasındadır. İnsan hakları ve sosyal adaleti savunan sosyal hizmet mesleğinin özgürleştirici değerlerinden biri güçlenmedir. Dolayısıyla trans gençlerin güçlenerek özgür ve onurlu bir yaşam sürmeleri adına diyalojik bir eksende onlarla birlikte mücadele etmek, sosyal hizmet mesleğinin sorumlulukları arasındadır. Fakat trans gençlerle sosyal hizmette güçlenme yaklaşımı üzerine Türkiye’deki araştırma ve uygulama örneklerinin kısıtlı olduğu görülmektedir. Bu yüzden bu yazının amacı, trans gençlerle güçlenme odaklı sosyal hizmet konusunu uluslararası literatürde yer alan çalışmalar üzerinden değerlendirmektir. İlgili alanyazında, trans gençlerin toplumsal cinsiyet ve yaş temelli ayrımcılık ideolojilerinin kesiştiği bir noktadan baskı deneyimleri yaşadıkları görülmektedir. Başka bir ifadeyle, bu yazı kapsamında incelenen literatür çerçevesinde, sisseksist ve yetişkinci ayrımcılık ideolojilerinin yarattığı baskı temelli söylem ve eylemlerin trans gençlerin toplum içindeki gücünü kişisel, ilişkisel, komünal, kültürel ve yapısal düzeylerde etkilediği sonucuna varılabilir. Varılan bu sonuç, uluslararası literatürde yer alan trans gençlerle güçlenme odaklı sosyal hizmet modelleri ve uygulama örnekleri üzerinden değerlendirilmiştir. Bu değerlendirmeler üzerinden geliştirilen önerilerin Türkiye’de trans gençlerle çalışan akademisyen ve uzmanlara ışık tutması ümit edilmektedir.
Cinsiyet Eşitliği ve Kadın İstihdamı: Karikatürlerde Kadın Mühendisler
Authors: Anaç Nergizhan , Arslan Volkan
Published: May 2024

Bir ülkenin ekonomik kalkınması için kadın ve erkek iş gücünün etkili bir şekilde kullanılması önemlidir. Bu nedenle, teknolojinin sürekli gelişmekte olduğu günümüz şartlarında, ataerkillikten gelen eskiden kalma düşüncelerle kadına verilmiş olan roller içerisinde çalışma hayatında yer aldıkları meslek kavramlarının sorgulanması ve toplum gözünde yeniden inşa edilerek düzenlenmesi elzemdir. Geçmişin bir uzantısı olarak kurgulanan ve günümüze gelen kabul edilmiş toplumsal cinsiyet rolleri yüzünden halen bazı meslekler erkek mesleği olarak görülmektedir. Özellikle mühendislik mesleğinin ve mühendis kavramının eril özelliklere sahip olduğu önyargısı bulunmaktadır. Bu nedenle, çoğu zaman mühendislik işleri erkek cinsiyeti dışında başka bir cinsiyet ile bağdaştırılamamaktadır. Toplumda erkekler dışındaki cinsiyetleri hedef alan mesleki cinsiyete dayalı ayrımcılığın azaltılması ve ortadan kaldırılması veya meslekte cinsiyet eşitliğinin kabulü erken yaşta bireylerin eğitilerek farkındalığının arttırılmasıyla sağlanabilir. Bu farkındalığın kazandırılmasında görsel veya işitsel (okul eğitim, sosyal medya, reklamlar, televizyon programları vb.) işlevi olan çeşitli eğitim araçları kullanılabilir. Karikatürler, sahip oldukları mizah öğeleri sayesinde toplumdaki bireylerin öğrenme ve öğretme sürecinde kullanılan bu tip görsel araçlardan biridir. Eğitim ve öğretimde kavramları öğretmek veya pekiştirmek amacıyla yararlanılan karikatürlerin, genel anlamda toplumsal algı oluşturmak, algıyı yönetmek ve toplumsal değişime tanıklık etmek gibi özellikleri de bulunmaktadır. Kimi zaman eğlendirici olmakla birlikte bazı durumlarda düşündürücü unsurları içerisinde barındıran karikatürler güçlü iletişim araçlarıdır. Karikatürlerin; ötekileşmenin karşısında bir duruşla toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliğinin desteklendiği kullanımı ile toplumdaki meslek-cinsiyet algısını kıracak etkinin sağlanacağı ve mühendislik mesleğinin erkek cinsiyeti dışında temsilinin normalleştiği bir ortam oluşturulabilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, karikatürlerde yer alan mühendis olgusunun toplumsal cinsiyet kavramı üzerinden sorgulanmasını sağlamaktır. Bu amaçla, web ortamında arama motorlarıyla ulaşılabilen mühendis ve cinsiyet kavramını anlatan karikatürler üzerinden Genel Sözlü Mizah Teorisi kullanılarak analiz gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çalışma, karikatürlerin içerik ve anlatım özelliklerinin meslek tanımlarının cinsiyet eşitliği açısından yeniden şekillendirilmesine tesir edebileceği ve kitle iletişim araçları arasında yer bulan pozitif veya negatif karikatür dilinin bu duruma katkı sunabilecek gücü olabileceği düşüncesi üzerine geliştirilmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda, mühendis kavramının yer aldığı karikatürlerde meslek-cinsiyet algısının erkek lehine olduğu anlaşılmakta ve mesleki cinsiyet eşitliğinin olmadığı görülmektedir.

Published: May 2024

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is monoecious plants that relies on cross pollination to ensure the production of viable seeds and prevent parthenocarpy. Understanding the phenology of Elaeis guineensis flower development enables to optimize the timing of assisted pollination and harvesting. The aim of this study is to describe the development of male and female inflorescence of oil palm, Elaeis guineensis var. Tenera. The frequency of observation of development was daily, starting from pre-anthesis until post-anthesis for female inflorescence and spikelet degradation for male inflorescence. The flower developments were coded according to Biologische Bundesantalt Bundessortenamt und Chemische Industrie (BBCH) scales. The anthesis period for male inflorescence occurs around four to five days. A male inflorescence consists of spikelets that accommodate almost 30% of rachis. Spikelets are full with yellow flowers and contains millions of pollen grains in form of dust particles during anthesis. Spikelet are arranged in spiral around the rachis in one direction and are fully elongated and exposed. The size of spikelet is between 102 mm and 215 mm in length. Female flowers are fully receptive for three to four days where rachillae are elongated and fully exposed. The total number of rachillae cover 36% of rachis length. Each rachilla composes of eight to 25 flowers in a female inflorescence. Anthesis phase of male inflorescence is longer than female inflorescence. The phenological information about inflorescences can be used to enhance the pollination techniques and optimize fruit formation.

Fish farming is a difficult, task that involves growing fish without risk. Maintaining the pond's water quality allows for safe fish production. This will go over the creation of a real-time water quality system to monitor fish farms. The water quality monitoring system includes a dissolved oxygen sensor, a pH sensor, and a water temperature sensor. The Arduino Nano microcontroller is linked with the Internet of Things (IoT) platform to provide real-time remote water monitoring. The system is intended to efficiently monitor water quality in freshwater fish farms, specifically water parameters suitable for fish. Instead of testing the system in the real fish farm, it is tested using water that is simulated to the water quality for the fish farm. If the water was above and below the fixed parameter it gives us an alert and water exchange mechanism get started by remove the dirty water from the pond through the solenoid valve and provide the fresh water into the pond. By measuring the dissolved oxygen level if is any deviation occurs water circulation mechanism should be established and circulate the water for increasing the oxygen level by using the padding wheel which all these done automatically. It also done the automatic food feeding at the periodic interval time without the manual involvement sometimes it may cause a manual error such as underfeeding and overfeeding which may affect the fish health to reduce such stuffs we use this automatic food feeding system.

It is crucial to detect cancer early in order to save many lives. If a brain tumor is detected at a higher grade, it is often one of the most prevalent and severe malignant tumor disorders, with a very short predicted life. The differences in tumor size, form, and location present a significant obstacle to the detection of brain tumors. This survey aims to provide researchers with a thorough literature review on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based brain tumor detection. The MRI images were classified using nine machine learning algorithms: Support Vector Machine (SVM), Logistic Regression, K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Naïve Bayes (NB), Decision Tree (DT) classifier, Random Forest classifier, XGBoost classifier, Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) classifier, and Gradient Boosting classifier. The ML algorithms have been compared and contrasted.
Батько й син аль-Асади: спільні й відмінні риси державної політики
Authors: Зелінський А.Л.
Published: May 2024

Сирійська президентська династія аль-Асадів є класичним прикладом спадкової диктатури. При цьому державна політика Хафеза аль-Асада і його сина Башара має між собою більше відмінного, ніж спільного.
Алавіт Х. аль-Асад узурпував державну владу Сирії завдяки власним зусиллям і здібностям. Внаслідок сукупності суспільно-політичних і соціально-економічних реформ він перетворив Сирію на державу страху, котра забезпечувала тим, хто її боїться соціальну мобільність і захищеність від злиднів. Водночас, суніти, котрі відмовлялися від політизації ісламу, могли сповідувати свою релігію і займати високі державні посади, а курди, котрі погоджувалися на арабізацію – реалізуватися у бізнесі, бюрократичному апараті чи релігійних структурах. Окрім цього, Х. аль-Асад, шляхом втручання у внутрішні справи Лівану, перетворив Сирію з політичного об’єкту на регіональний політичний суб’єкт, що імпонувало сирійцям.
Б. аль-Асад, котрий отримав президентську владу від батька, не зміг стати його повноцінною заміною. Разом із владою він дістав низку соціально-економічних викликів. Вони загрожували можливості держави забезпечувати населення необхідною кількістю «хліба в обмін на свободу» і вимагали термінового реагування. Б. аль-Асад по суті відмовився піти торованим шляхом поміркованої політичної й економічної лібералізації країни. Він надуживав державним «батогом» щоб приборкати демократичну опозицію та курдський національний рух. Водночас, Б. аль-Асад з тактичних міркувань загравав з сунітськими ісламістами. Нарешті, його провальна ліванська політика стала початком кінця сирійської регіональної суб’єктності.
Громадянська війна, котра стала наслідком державної політики Б. аль-Асада, нічому його не навчила. Зрештою, він віддався на милість іноземних покровителів в особі РФ та Ірану, перетворившись на їхню маріонетку. Слабкість його владних позицій виключає можливість подальшого продовження президентської династії аль-Асадів.
Pollution Emission Intensity and Domestic Value-Added Rate of Firms' Exports: An Empirical Analysis Based on China’s Microdata
Authors: Qiao Xiaoyong , Zheng Minhui , Guo Yongzhe , Chen Xue
Published: May 2024

Abstract

With the development of global economic integration, global value chains (GVC) have become the mainstay of the global economy. China's low-end embedded model relying on its labor advantage can no longer bring new economic benefits, and the ensuing environmental problems are intensifying. Therefore, there is an urgent need to explore a win-win path for the greening of China's economy and the improvement of GVC status. Using micro-firm data, the article explores the role of pollution emission intensity of China's firms in influencing the domestic value-added rate of their exports. The study finds that (1) the increase of pollution emission intensity of Chinese enterprises has a significant inhibiting effect on their export domestic value-added rate; (2) the pollution emission intensity of Chinese enterprises under different regions, different ownership and different trading methods has differentiated effects on their export domestic value-added rate. Among them, the pollution emission intensity of state-owned enterprises, enterprises in western regions and processing trade enterprises have a more significant inhibitory effect on the domestic value-added rate of their exports; (3) the increase of total factor productivity of enterprises can slow down the negative effect of enterprise pollution emission intensity on the domestic value-added rate of its export.

Keywords: Enterprise Pollution Emission Intensity, Export Domestic Value-Added Rate, Global Value Chain Embeddedness.

The banana (Musa AAA) is one of the main economically important crops worldwide. Currently, it faces a serious problem of plant death caused by the bacterium Ralstonia solanacearum (Smith) variety 2. The objective of this research was to evaluate the effect of biological control of Moko disease and its relationship with the vegetative growth of banana seedlings under field conditions. Four treatments were employed: absolute control (T0), Trichoderma spp. (T2), Bacillus spp. (Bio-remedy) (T3), and ADMF® (T4) with three replications in a completely randomized block design. The incubation period, the incidence percentage, and the area under the disease progress curve (AUDPC) were evaluated, along with plant survival and height, pseudostem diameter, and leaf emission rate. At 113 days after transplanting (dat), treatments T1, T2, and T3 showed higher seedling survival. Plant height (111-145 cm), pseudostem diameter (7.43-11.28 cm), and leaf emission rate (11.74-13.15 leaves) exhibited significant differences among treatments. Treated plants showed the lowest AUDPC (between 576.1 and 1435.4 units) compared to untreated plants (3156.55 units).

AI advancements, particularly in neural networks, have brought about groundbreaking tools like text generators and chatbots. While these technologies offer tremendous benefits, they also pose serious risks such as privacy breaches, spread of misinformation, and challenges to academic integrity. Previous efforts to distinguish between human and AI-generated text have been limited, especially with models like ChatGPT. To tackle this, we created a dataset containing both human and ChatGPT-generated text, using it to train and test various machine and deep learning models. Your results, particularly the high F1-score and accuracy achieved by the RoBERTa-based custom deep learning model and Distil BERT, indicate promising progress in this area. By establishing a robust baseline for detecting and classifying AI-generated content, your work contributes significantly to mitigating potential misuse of AI-powered text generation tools.

The authors reveal the importance of self-control in physical education and sports. If you exercise incorrectly, you can get severe chronic health consequences. Self-control is diff erent for each person or a particular sport. In order for self-control to be eff ective, the student needs to have an idea of the energy expenditure of his body during neuropsychiatric and muscular stresses that arise when performing educational activities in combination with systematic stress. It is important to know the time intervals of rest and recovery of mental and physical performance, as well as techniques, means and methods by which you can more eff ectively restore the functional capabilities of the body

Relevance. Basketball is a traumatic sport, and it is second only to martial arts (such as boxing and taekwondo) in terms of the number of injuries. As a rule, external factors of sports injuries are not always controllable, but internal factors canbe minimized even at the initial stages of training with the help of specially organized recovery programs. At the same time, it is necessary to take into account both the morphological and functional features of adolescents, as well as physi-ological processes, as well as psychological characteristics that can provoke sports injuries. The purpose of the study: to determine the eff ectiveness of the experimental methodology of the integrated use of fi tness tools in the reco very and prevention of injuries of female basketball players aged 13–15 years. Materials and research methods. The study in-volved 2 groups of basketball players aged 13–15 years. In the experimental group, fi tness tools were used in recovery activities, the control group was engaged in a traditional program. At the beginning and at the end of the study, the re-spondents recorded the peculiarities of the course of mental processes and technical profi ciency. Results. The introduc-tion of an experimental program of injury recovery and prevention based on fi tness technologies for basketball players aged 13–15 years allowed us to achieve the following changes at the fi nal stage of the study: in the experimental group, the indicators of technical profi ciency are statistically signifi cantly higher (the number of shots in motion, the number of hits in the “free throws” standard, the time of the shuttle run with the ball). In addition, diff erences were found in the rate of mental processes (the number of errors in the “Proof-reading test”, the speed of reaction to a moving object in the “Ruler” test, the results of the tapping test of the left hand, the coeffi cient of functional asymmetry). Conclusions. A signifi cant number of relationships between the indicators of technical profi ciency and mental processes allow us to conclude that the formation of “functional supports”, which are a sign of eff ective recovery and helps to reduce the prob-ability of injury from internal factors.
