An Innovative Geostatistical Framework for Prioritizing Inspections in Water Distribution Networks
Authors:   Graduate Student, USA, Kulkarni Tanay , Karve Devashri ,   Graduate Student, USA
Published: December 2024

Aging water infrastructure networks face significant challenges, with the United States experiencing frequent
pipe failures and substantial water loss. This study leverages geospatial and geo-statistical analysis to prioritize pipeline
inspection in Watertown, Connecticut. By integrating Geographic Information Systems (GIS) with machine learning,
various factors influencing pipeline health—such as pipe age, material, length, diameter, soil pH, and groundwater depth—
are analyzed. Historical pipe break data between 2015 and 2021 are mapped to identify spatial correlations with
environmental and operational attributes. A K-Means clustering algorithm classifies pipelines into high, medium, and low
inspection priority categories based on critical attributes. Findings reveal that corrosive soil pipes with low diameters and
high break frequencies pose significant risks. The study demonstrates the effectiveness of GIS-driven data integration and
analysis in optimizing maintenance strategies, reducing system-wide impacts, and improving resilience. These insights
provide a replicable framework for water utilities worldwide to address aging infrastructure challenges.

Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS)
Authors: Sharma Dr Parul , Kaundal Avantika , Rai Sonal
Published: December 2024

The Modified Early Warning Score (MEWS) is a healthcare tool that helps identify people who are at risk of major
medical problems. MEWS enables healthcare practitioners to detect signs of deterioration early by monitoring
important physiological markers such as heart rate, respiration rate, blood pressure, body temperature, and state of
consciousness. This allows for quick medical action, which can reduce problems, improve patient outcomes, and
even save lives. MEWS uses a scoring system, with higher scores indicating a greater probability of clinical decline.
Abnormal heart rates, irregular breathing patterns, low or high blood pressure, odd body temperature, or changes in
a patient's state of alertness can all contribute to an elevated MEWS score. When a specific threshold is achieved, the
system alerts workers to take action, such as contacting a specialist or moving the patient to a higher degree of care.
such as the intensive care unit (ICU). This procedure guarantees that severely ill patients receive treatment before
their condition becomes life-threatening. This approach is commonly used in hospital wards and emergency rooms
since it is simple, straightforward to execute, and does not necessitate advanced equipment. According to studies,
MEWS is helpful in predicting bad outcomes such as the requirement for ICU admission or the probability of death
in the hospital. It also allows healthcare teams to more efficiently manage resources by prioritising patients who
require immediate attention. For example, in crowded hospitals with limited staff and equipment, MEWS can identify
which patients require critical care the most, guaranteeing that no one is ignored. Despite the benefits, deploying
MEWS in healthcare settings presents problems. One major concern is ensuring that all staff members have been
properly educated to utilise the product. Misinterpretation of ratings or delays in taking action can limit their efficacy.
Additionally, hospitals must create clear processes for responding to various MEWS thresholds. Without regular
commitment to these rules, MEWS's full potential may not be realised. Regular staff training and system evaluations
are critical for addressing these issues and improving the tool's reliability. MEWS has had a substantial influence on
patient care by making it easier for healthcare personnel to detect when a patient's condition worsens. It acts as an
early warning system, reducing the likelihood of unexpected emergencies and allowing medical teams to provide
proactive care. While there are certain areas for development, such as improved training and stricter protocol
adherence, the benefits of MEWS in terms of patient safety and outcomes are apparent. It is an important instrument
in modern healthcare, saving lives and maximising hospital resources.

Authors: AGBAKA Opêoluwa Blandine , DOGNON Dorothée Elavagnon , LABIYI Nestor
Published: December 2024

The conservation and enhancement of archaeological heritage in African countries, particularly in Benin, present significant challenges for researchers. The general lack of awareness among Beninese populations regarding this heritage, coupled with its minimal integration into development and cultural policies, has led to increased degradation and, in some cases, the irreversible destruction of millennia-old relics. These artifacts bear witness to civilizations once thought extinct but remain vibrant within contemporary societies. The ETOO fortified site in the Shabè region exemplifies an archaeological site whose patrimonial value warrants preservation and promotion. This study addresses the following questions: What are the stakes involved in enhancing archaeological heritage in Benin? What heritage enhancement plan is suitable for the ETOO site in the Shabè region? How can enhancement strategies be explored through cinema and audiovisual media? The methodology combines empirical research, archaeological survey reports, and a specialized literature review, as well as a study of cinematographic and audiovisual productions on similar heritage sites in Africa and elsewhere. The objective is to present the potential of this archaeological site for heritage enhancement, identify associated threats, and reflect on the importance of archaeological heritage in territorial development plans. The article begins with a brief overview of archaeological realities in Africa, followed by an examination of the status of archaeological heritage within Beninese legislation. The third section introduces the ETOO fortified site. The final sections discuss the site's patrimonialization and analyze its potential for enhancement.

All groups were analyzed for thiobarbituric acid (TBA), free fatty acid (FFA), and peroxide value (POV) in lipid oxidation, for protein oxidation, tyrosine and sulfhydryl content. At intervals of 72 hours, the fresh TBA value (0.11) showed a significant difference (P≤0.05) with the control, tamarind juice and honey 30%. The FFA and POV showed non-significant (P≤0.05) deference with all treated groups, lowest value was observed in honey20%. The tyrosine value of fresh meat at 00 storage time was 0.65 in terms of protein oxidation; at 48 and 72 hour intervals, significant (P≤0.05) differences were noted with tamarind juice, honey 25%, and honey 30%, respectively. Fresh meat had a sulfhydryl content of 2.17, with exception of honey 20% at 48 hours of storage, showed significant (P≤0.05) difference with the control and all marinade groups at 48 and 72 hours interval. The TVC found in fresh meat was 6.12 to 10.31 at 00 to 72 hour storage while, marinades significantly affected the shelf life of spent hen meat. The fresh value coliform count (4.71) was statistically significant (P≤0.05) with all treated groups, whereas increasing trend was observed in all groups. The honey 20% showed the lowest results at 00 and 72 hours, respectively. It was observed that the marinades effectively reduce oxidation and extend shelf life.

This study utilized featherback skin to generate a versatile protein hydrolysate having capacities of iron chelation, emulsification, foaming and amino acid supplement. The hydrolysate obtained under the chosen condition (Alcalase, the skin:water ratio of 1:9 (w/v), pH 7.5, 55°C, enzyme:substrate (E:S) ratio of 40 U/g protein, 4 h of hydrolysis) showed an iron-binding capacity (IBC) of 7085.2 ± 4.2 (μg Fe2+/g protein), being equivalent to that of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt (Na2EDTA). Together with a high content of hydrophobic amino acids (63.34 mg/L), in the pH range 3-8, the emulsifying property of the hydrolysate was remarkable with emulsifying activity index (EAI) of 0.16-0.21 m2/g protein and emulsifying stability index (ESI) of 35.1-107.1 min, which were 1.7- 2.3 folds lower and 1.6-5.0 folds higher than those of sodium caseinate, respectively. Meanwhile, the hydrolysate exhibited mild foaming property with its foaming capacity (FC) and foaming stability (FS) being 3.6-16.6 folds lower than those of albumin.

The Contribution of the Mining Sector to the Economic and Social Development of Mongolia
Authors: Avirmed Davaasuren , Bold Khishigjargal
Published: December 2024

The economic and social development of Mongolia is highly dependent on global market conditions, international economic trends, and the environment for foreign investment. The country’s economic growth has primarily relied on the production of the mining and mineral resources sector. The mining sector occupies a significant position in Mongolia’s industrial production. Furthermore, mining and extractive industries make a substantial contribution to tax revenues in Mongolia's unified state budget. Export revenues from products such as copper concentrate, coal, iron ore, and fluorspar play a vital role in funding the state budget.
Over the past decade, the share of the mining sector in GDP, unified state budget revenues, and total exports has increased, while its share in industrial production and total imports has shown a declining trend. These changes have been influenced by unfavorable global economic conditions, declining prices of mineral resources in international markets, and factors such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
Except for copper concentrate, Mongolia predominantly exports raw mining products without further processing. Therefore, to implement the goals outlined in the country's long-term development policy, “VISION-2050”, the government needs to take more resolute and consistent measures to process mining products domestically.

Research on stone tools in the Tuul River basin began in the 1949s, but there has been little subsequent investigation until 2018, when new efforts commenced to identify stone age sites in the river’s headwaters. In 2022, as part of the research project Stone age Sites of the Tuul River, archaeological survey and excavation were conducted in the area from Songino Mountain near Ulaanbaatar to the confluence of the Tuul and Terelj Rivers along the Tuul River. The goal of these efforts was to reassess previously discovered Paleolithic sites and identify new ones. Here, we present the initial findings from an excavation on the southeast terrace of Bayantsagaan Mountain, located within the Gorkhi-Terelj National Park. The excavation revealed four cultural layers associated with the Paleolithic period, yielding 149 stone tools. Among these tools were Levallois cores, blade cores, side-scrapers, notched tools, and combination tools, providing a comparative framework for dating the site against other Paleolithic sites in the region.

The Problem of primary knapping technique in Steppe Paleolithic sites
Authors: Enebish Donoidugar , Davaakhuu Odsuren , Tsedendorj Bolorbat
Published: December 2024

In the region east of the Kherlen River, characterized by low mountains and vast plains, relatively little Paleolithic research has been conducted in recent times. Therefore, this article examines the primary flaking techniques used in the production of stone tools at the Paleolithic sites discovered in recent years in the territory of Sukhbaatar province, specifically at Achaat Mountain, Bogd Mountain, and the Otson Tsohio and Zuun Shovkh sites. These sites are associated with the final stage of the Middle Paleolithic and the Early and Middle Upper Paleolithic. The primary flaking techniques used in stone tool production were directed toward the center, with Levallois and parallel flaking methods predominating. The Levallois flaking technique was used relatively late, continuing until the Middle Upper Paleolithic, likely in relation to the regional Paleolithic cultural zonation.
Тал хээрийн палеолитын дурсгалын анхдагч цуулалтын асуудал
Хураангуй: Хэрлэн голоос урагш нам өндөртэй уулс, тэгш тал зонхилсон хээрийн бүс нутагт өнгөрсөн хугацаанд палеолитын судалгаа харьцангуй бага хийжээ. Тиймээс тус өгүүлэлд Сүхбаатар аймгийн нутаг дэвсгэрээс сүүлийн жилүүдэд илрүүлсэн Ачаат уул, Богд уул, Зараа уулын Оцон цохио, Зүүн шовхын палеолитын суурины чулуун зэвсэг үйлдвэрлэлийн анхдагч цуулалтын арга ажиллагааны тухай өгүүлэв. Дээрх дурсгалууд нь дунд палеолитын төгсгөл, дээд палеолитын эхэн болон дунд үед холбогдоно.

Authors: Jamsranjav Bayarsaikhan , Houle Jean-Luc
Published: December 2024

Uvs Province, located in the northwestern region of Mongolia, is rich in ancient archaeological and cultural monuments. Among these, numerous stone monuments represent different historical periods. Since 2015, the joint Mongolian-American “Western Mongolia” research project team has been conducting archaeological surveys and excavations in the territory of Zuunkhangai sum, discovering, documenting, and excavating various archaeological sites. This article reviews 32 deer stones, including 16 previously recorded stelae and 16 newly discovered ones from the area of Zuunkhangai sum. Most of these deer stones belong to the category without animal depictions, while a few feature realistic or abstract images of deer. Some of the stones have preserved traces of ochre paint in the carved recesses, as well as distinctive engravings, such as a large bow and arrow and a pair of spears.

The native data and native qualities of Mongolians
Authors: Sanduijav Odkhuu
Published: December 2024

Each country has different mindsets, images, behaviors, and internal facts that come from its existence, its active economy, its  traditional lifestyle, its daily lifestyles, and its intrinsic facts. Many factors contribute to the disintegration and unification of Mongolians, including, without limitation, living conditions, income, language and culture, mentality, traditions and inheritance, habits, behaviors and characteristics, personalities, ways of life, appearance and body, image, mentality, attitudes and trends. All these characteristics attract both foreigners and researchers. We also bring together and globalize through various features. We will talk about several characteristics that separate, disintegrate and separate Mongolians from other countries.
