Authors: Papp-Zipernovszky Orsolya , Rafael Beatrix , Teleki Szidalisz , Tiringer István
Published: July 2024

Bevezetés: A szív-érrendszeri betegségek világszerte mindkét nem
esetében vezető halálokok, köztük a leggyakoribb az ischaemiás szívbetegség. Az
egészségügyi információk megszerzési, értelmezési, felhasználási készségeinek
gyűjtőfogalma az egészségértés, mely a prevenció több szintjén előre jelezheti
az egészségi állapotot, valamint a cardiovascularis mortalitást.
Célkitűzés: Kutatásunk célja az egészségértés szintjének és
pszichodemográfiai összefüggéseinek vizsgálata volt ischaemiás szívbetegekben.
Módszer: Keresztmetszeti, kérdőíves vizsgálatunkban magyar
ischaemiás szívbetegek mintáján (n = 78) mértük az egészségértést, emellett az
ezzel összefüggő életmódbeli és pszichés jellemzőket. Mérőeszközök: Brief Health
Literacy Screening (BHLS), Short Test of Functional Health Literacy for Adults
(S-TOFHLA), Heart Disease Knowledge Questionnaire; Rövidített Vitális
Kimerültség Kérdőív, Brief Illness Perception Questionnaire, Medication
Adherence Report Scale, egészség-magatartás és szubjektív egészségi állapot
saját kérdéssorral. Eredmények: Egyik egészségértés teszten sem
különbözött szignifikánsan a betegek pontszáma a standard értékektől. Az
S-TOFHLA teszten a kitöltők mindössze 6,4%-ának volt nem megfelelő az eredménye,
a BHLS tesztnél a 3,8%-uknak. A funkcionális egészségértést az életkor és a
vitális kimerültség jelezte előre szignifikánsan (F(72) = 3,94), önállóan csak
az utóbbi. A betegségismeret varianciájának 25,7%-át magyarázta az életkort, az
iskolai végzettséget és a funkcionális egészségértést tartalmazó regressziós
modell (F(74) = 8,18), önállóan az utóbbi kettő jelezte előre. Az önbevallásos
egészségértés varianciájának 41,2%-át magyarázta az életkort, az iskolai
végzettséget, a vitális kimerültséget, a betegségismeretet és a
rizikóviselkedést tartalmazó regressziós modell, amelyben szignifikáns,
független előrejelző volt az iskolai végzettség és a vitális kimerültség. A
különböző egészségértés-típusok hatását az egészségügyi kimeneti változókra
további regressziós modellekkel teszteltük: a betegségreprezentáció
varianciájának 29,8%-át magyarázták együttesen (F(3) = 9,321), önálló
előrejelzője azonban csak a BHLS teszt volt. Következtetés: Az
egészségértés ismert meghatározói mellett rámutattunk a vitális kimerültség
szerepére, továbbá az egészségértés és a betegségismeret, valamint a
betegségreprezentáció szoros összefüggéseire. A jövőbeli betegedukációk
tervezésekor fontosnak tartjuk az egészségértésszint mérését és
figyelembevételét. Orv Hetil. 2024; 165(30): 1166–1175.

Accounting information systems (AISs) have become indispensable enterprise management tools, serving as a vital resource for promoting administrative and financial processes, facilitating decision-making, and improving overall performance. Apart from business, AISs can also be developed as zakat for sharia. In this regard, AIS plays a role in calculating zakat, making zakat payment decisions, and assisting managers in zakat allocation. This function is very beneficial for business actors, especially MSME actors. The existence of AISs can make it easier for MSMEs to manage their revenue and zakat. So, MSMEs need to be able to adopt AISs. Unfortunately, research regarding the acceptability of AIS adoption for MSMEs has not yet been conducted. Therefore, this research examines the factors of acceptance of AISs by e-commerce actors from MSMEs. By using the elements in the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), such as Perceived ease of use (PEU) and perceived usefulness (PU) through quantitative methods and Partial Least Square Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM) analysis, the results of data analysis in this study show that the influence of PEU and PU on IUAISs is positive and significant. This shows that IUAISs are influenced by two main variables from TAM (PEU and PU). Based on the results, this study implies that MSMEs that successfully adopt Accounting Information Systems (AISs) for revenue and zakat management can improve their administrative and financial efficiency, emphasizing the importance of understanding the factors influencing AIS acceptance among MSMEs.

Leather waste as a filler of synthetic fibers: a novel approach to waste recycling
Authors: Senthil Rethinam
Published: July 2024

Finished leather scrap (FLS) is a footwear industrial waste that is often dumped in landfills. Because of environmental problems, there has recently been an increase in interest in using wastes as inclusion for blending materials. Microleather fibers (MLFs) were extracted from the LFS with the help of fiber isolation machine. This study examines the possibility of using LFS waste as a blending in polypropylene fiber (PPF). For the purpose of consumer application, 500 wt.% of MLF and different concentrations of PPF (100, 200, and 300 wt.%) were used to develop the web fibrous matrix (WFM) using the web formation method and injection molding techniques. The impact of PPF blending concentration on the mechanical characteristics of WFM was assessed. WFM containing up to 300 wt.% PPF increased characteristics such as tensile strength (85.95 ± 1.81 MPa), elongation at break (81.18 ± 0.23%), tearing strength (22.69 ± 0.23 N/mm), and flexing index (10.55 ± 0.73%), attaining mechanical properties comparable to nonwoven polypropylene composite. A biodegradation study was carried out using an enzymatic method, and the results demonstrated the biodegradable properties. WFM demonstrated desirable applications such as in home interiors, shoe lining materials, carpets, and puppets, as well as in low-cost materials and prevention of pollution.

Key Points

Lysosomal-associated protein transmembrane 5 (LAPTM5) is increased in tubular epithelial cells in CKD.

Conditional knockout of Laptm5 in tubules attenuates kidney fibrosis in mice with CKD.

LAPTM5 contributes to tubular senescence by inhibiting WWP2-mediated ubiquitination of notch1 intracellular domain.

Background

Tubular senescence is a major determinant of CKD, and identification of potential therapeutic targets involved in senescent tubular epithelial cells has clinical importance. Lysosomal-associated protein transmembrane 5 (LAPTM5) is a key molecule related to T- and B-cell receptor expression and inflammation. However, the expression pattern of LAPTM5 in the kidney and the contribution of LAPTM5 to the development of CKD are unknown.

Methods

Laptm5

−/−
mice and tubule specific–Laptm5 knockout mice were used to examine the role of LAPTM5 in tubular senescence by establishing different experimental mouse CKD models.

Results

LAPTM5 expression was significantly induced in the kidney, especially in proximal tubules and distal convoluted tubules, from mice with aristolochic acid nephropathy, bilateral ischemia/reperfusion injury–induced CKD, or unilateral ureter obstruction. Tubule-specific deletion of Laptm5 inhibited senescence of tubular epithelial cells and alleviated tubulointerstitial fibrosis in aged mice. Moreover, Laptm5 deficiency ameliorated kidney injury and tubular senescence in mice with CKD. Mechanistically, LAPTM5 inhibited ubiquitination of notch1 intracellular domain by mediating WWP2 lysosomal degradation and then leading to cellular senescence in tubular epithelial cells. We also observed a higher expression of LAPTM5 in tubules from patients with CKD, and the level of LAPTM5 was correlated with kidney fibrosis and tubular senescence in people with CKD.

Conclusions

LAPTM5 contributed to tubular senescence by regulating the WWP2/notch1 intracellular domain signaling pathway and exacerbated kidney injury during the progression of CKD.
REFLECTION OF SOCIAL STRATIFICATION IN ART: THE CASE OF CASTA PAINTINGS
Authors: Öztürk Yıldız
Published: July 2024

Visual culture products are not neutral objects. It can be argued that visual culture products are indicative of power relations, and that these relations are more pronounced during periods of social change and upheaval. Understanding visual cultural products beyond the confines of their frames, evaluating these images within contexts, and looking beyond the images are necessary both to conduct a profound analysis of artistic production and to reveal the dynamics of social power relations. Throughout mainstream art history, it is evident that people of colour have been represented with stereotyped identities distinct from those of whites. Western visual regimes reproduce existing inequalities and stratifications in society through racialized images. Casta paintings crystallize this perspective, depicting the process of racial mixing among the three main groups living in Mexico, which was part of the Spanish colony in the 18th century. Casta paintings narrate the ways in which a racialized society is expressed in visual culture. This study focuses on the exhibition Casta: The Origins of Caste to examine how social stratification and race are visualized in works of art.
The Critical Edge of Learning
Authors: Rose Jacqueline
Published: July 2024

In this article, Jacqueline Rose argues that nineteenth-century literary writing, notably Mary Shelley’s relatively unknown Valperga, published the year Birkbeck was launched, has much to say about the crisis facing the humanities in the UK and worldwide today. Shelley’s text is a plea against tyranny. Birkbeck was founded, to acclaim and hostility, in order to make the pursuit of knowledge and critical thought available to the working class. Tracing her own educational experience, Rose argues that these issues have never been more urgently in need of attention than today.

Published: July 2024

En la actualidad, a nivel global, se observan bajos niveles de cumplimiento en lo que respecta a la realización de actividad física, lo que conduce a un aumento significativo en la adopción de comportamientos sedentarios durante largos períodos de tiempo. Esta tendencia representa un importante problema de salud pública que afecta al 60 % de la población mundial. En este contexto, la Organización Mundial de la Salud ha propuesto un conjunto de intervenciones técnicas, enmarcadas en los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible), con el objetivo de fomentar la práctica de actividad física. Estas intervenciones incluyen medidas como la promoción de la conservación ambiental, la estimulación de la innovación y el uso de soluciones digitales. Objetivo: diseñar y validar losmensajes con modalidad persuasiva en mujeres que participan en una intervención en actividad física en una universidad colombiana. Metodología: validez de contenido de mensajes con modalidad persuasiva. Inicialmente se diseñaron los contenidos de acuerdo con los procesos de cambio conductual del modelo transteórico, después se realizó la validez de contenido a través de expertos y prueba estadística. Y, por último, se enviaron los mensajes a mujeres que participaron de una intervención en el marco de “AcTICvate en casa” durante el año 2021 en la ciudad de Manizales. Resultados: se obtienen 24 mensajes validados en tres líneas, relacionados con teorías del comportamiento para promover la práctica de actividad física. Conclusión: el diseño de los mensajes y la validación del índice de contenido a través de expertos soportan una relación positiva para el cambio de comportamiento sedentario en mujeres.

Introducción: la profilaxis preexposición al VIH (PrEP) ha demostrado disminuir la incidencia del VIH, pero su adopción en Colombia es aún incipiente. Para avanzar en la implementación de la PrEP como intervención de salud pública es necesario conocer el interés de las poblaciones en riesgo de VIH y los factores que facilitarían su uso. Objetivo: identificar los factores relacionados con el interés e intención de tomar PrEP en hombres gay/bisexuales. Metodología: estudio transversal analítico en una muestra no probabilística en ciudades principales de Colombia. Se exploraron las características sociodemográficas, conocimiento, motivaciones, habilidades conductuales y factores psicosociales, se utilizaron modelos logísticos para estimar la relación de estos factores con el interés y la intención de usar la PrEP. Resultados y conclusiones: participaron 552 hombres gay/bisexuales, 301 (54 %) reclutados en línea y 251 en persona. Solo el 40 % de la muestra sabía de la existencia de PrEP. 57.4 % (IC95%:54.9%-62.4%) reportaron interés e 52.9 % (IC95%: 48.5%-57.3%) intención de usar PrEP. El interés y la intención de usar la PrEP se relacionaron con actitudes y normas positivas hacia PrEP, así como con mayores habilidades relacionadas con servicios de PrEP. El estigma hacia la PrEP y los síntomas depresivos se relacionaron con menor interés e intención. Los resultados sugieren la necesidad de fomentar la información sobre PrEP, especialmente en poblaciones con más desventajas sociales y que experimentan más estigma, al igual que desarrollar intervenciones comunitarias que apoyen las motivaciones y las habilidades para usar la PrEP.
An updated chronology for Umbeli Belli and its implications for the Middle and Later Stone Ages
Authors: Tribolo Chantal , Conard Nicholas J. , Blessing Matthias , Bader Gregor D.
Published: July 2024

We present a series of 12 OSL/IRSL dates that revise and complete the chronology of the important Middle (MSA) and Later Stone Age (LSA) site Umbeli Belli in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. These dates shift the previous radiometric ages thousands of years older than earlier measurements and play a key role in revising the cultural stratigraphy of KwaZulu-Natal. We also discuss how these dates bring the chrono- and cultural stratigraphy of southern Africa into clearer focus. The Robberg sequence of Umbeli Belli is now firmly dated to 21 ± 2 ka, whereas the preceding Early LSA assemblage dates to ~32 ka, representing one of the earliest dates for this cultural expression in the broader region. The final MSA assemblages from Layer 7 to 9 now date to between 35 ka and 40 ka, overlapping more tightly with comparable assemblages from Sibhudu, Umhlatuzana and other sites. Layer 10, which was previously also assigned to the final MSA, now dates to ~47–54 ka, placing the assemblage within the temporal range of the Late MSA. The new dates provide a good explanation for the clear differences in material culture between Layer 10 and the younger layers. We also present two new ages for the deeper horizons 11b and 12 at Umbeli Belli, dating to 76 ± 9 ka and 80 ± 9 ka, respectively.

La socialización de la pobreza: cambios en los perfiles de la población pobre en España
Authors: Belzunegui Eraso Ángel , Borbonès Brescó Carme , Valls Fonayet Francesc
Published: July 2024

En aquest primer número de Quaderns per a la Inclusió Social s'aborda la realitat de la pobresa a Espanya. La tesi que es defensa en aquest treball és l'existència d'un procés de socialització de la pobresa, en el sentit que el risc de pobresa i la vulnerabilitat social s'estenen a capes socials i a grups d'edat que abans quedaven relativament protegits de les situacions desfavorides. S'analitzen els factors que contribueixen a aquest procés de socialització, entre els quals destaquen la situació dels subjectes en el mercat laboral, el tipus de llar on viuen i el nivell de formació que tenen. Per a algun d'aquests indicadors també es du a terme una comparativa de caràcter estatal. Finalment, es descriu l'estratègia 2020 adoptada per la Unió Europea amb el propòsit de reduir les taxes de pobresa i es concreten les directrius que la mateixa UE ha dictat per als seus membres amb vista a aconseguir aquest objectiu.

Construction of individuals ddRADseq libraries for macro-algae (Kelp) V.3 v2
Authors: Mauger Stéphane , Avia Komlan
Published: July 2024

This protocol describes a double digested restriction-site associated DNA (ddRADseq) procedure, that is a variation on the original RAD sequencing method (Davey & Blaxter 2011), which is used for de novo SNP discovery and genotyping. This protocol differs from the original ddRADseq protocol (Peterson et al 2012), in which the samples are pooled just after the ligation to adaptors (i.e. before size selection and PCR). This protocol is an update of the protocol from Claire Daguin Thiebaut et al. (dx.doi.org/10.17504/protocols.io.bv4tn8wn) adapted for macro-algae. The following protocol is intended for the construction of individual ddRADseq libraries from genomic DNA of various macro-algae samples (Kelp). In the present protocol, we added a genomic DNA purification step to eliminate the inhibitors of PCR and Ligation present in macro-algae (polysaccharides). Moreover, all samples are treated separately until final PCR amplification (Rad Taq enrichment step) performed before pooling. Despite being slightly more costly and time-consuming in the lab, it allows for fine adjustement of each sample representation in the final library pool ensuring similar number of reads between samples. Finally, we have defined new P1 adapters (barcodes) with variable sequences and variable sizes (6bp to 13bp) to increase the efficiency of the Illumina sequencing. Briefly, purified genomic DNA from the samples are individually digested with 2 restriction enzymes PstI/HhaI or PstI/MesI (one rare-cutter and one more frequent cutter) then ligated to a barcoded adaptor (among 24 available) at one side, and a single adaptor at the other side, purified with magnetic beads, and PCR-amplified allowing the addition of a Illumina index (among 24 available) for multiplexing a maximum of 576 samples per library. Samples are then pooled in equimolar conditions after visualisation on an agarose gel. Purification and size selection is then performed before final quality control of the library and sequencing. This protocol has proven its effectiveness in several genetic studies of marco-algae populations.

Objetivo: Comprender la percepción que tiene un grupo de trabajadores reincorporados, tras verse afectados en su salud, acerca de la integración al puesto de trabajo. Metodología: Estudio cualitativo, con un análisis fenomenológico interpretativo que busca entender y describir el fenómeno humano de integración al puesto de trabajo que se conoce poco e interesa a múltiples profesionales. Para recolectar la información se utilizó la entrevista en profundidad, cuyas preguntas estaban orientadas por el marco teórico de la ergonomía de la actividad. Participaron ocho trabajadores reincorporados de una empresa de servicio de transporte público durante el periodo 2019-2020. En el análisis se tomaron en cuenta los conceptos de la ergonomía de la actividad referentes a las características de los trabajadores, la distribución de las tareas y el ambiente laboral. Resultados: Los trabajadores presentan dolor y restricción para desempeñar sus tareas; sobre la distribución de estas, las perciben no significativas y poco pertinentes según las restricciones laborales, evidenciando diferencias entre la tarea prescrita y lo que ellos realizan; en el ambiente laboral existe desconocimiento de sus capacidades, deshumanización por un interés productivo y el apoyo de los jefes depende del estilo de liderazgo. Conclusión: Los trabajadores reincorporados perciben poca integración a sus puestos de trabajo. Se recomienda generar intervenciones que permitan abordar de forma participativa e integral la reincorporación laboral.

The accelerated growth of tourism in recent decades has led to the massification of many destinations, generating a great deal of controversy about this massive form of tourism and its effects on society and/or the environment. In response, new trends are emerging, such as slow tourism, which are more concerned with sustainability, decelerating the speed of travel and connecting with the destination and with yourself. This study examines the extent to which the tourism orientation of a social media post influences consumer behaviour in terms of attitude towards the post and intention to visit. For this purpose, a one-factor experimental design, the tourism orientation of the message (slow versus mass), is carried out. The results show that the message with a slow orientation generates a higher visit intention than the message with a mass orientation. In addition, the attitude towards the post mediates this relationship. This study offers important implications by highlighting how the inclusion of slow features in a tourism message on social media improves the attitude towards the post and contributes to generate a higher visit intention.

Construction Labor Productivity (CLP) is a critical factor in the construction industry that can significantly influence the success of a project. The lack of comprehensive knowledge and proficiency in CLP and its substantial impact on project outcomes is a significant concern. CLP is a highly effective concept that can significantly improve the overall efficiency of construction projects. While it has received considerable academic attention, it is still relatively underutilized in practice. This academic analysis aims to identify trends within the CLP as revealed by a comprehensive review of existing academic research. A bibliometric analysis, complemented by a descriptive quantitative statistical methodology, was utilized to evaluate the performance metrics and delineate the thematic landscape about the subject matter of CLP. Employing distinct keywords pertinent to the CLP phenomenon and applying specific criteria for metadata exploration facilitated a comprehensive search within the Scopus and Web of Science databases. The PRISMA flowchart was employed as a systematic approach for the identification, screening, and eligibility evaluation of metadata to be incorporated into this study. The study highlights growing CLP research, led by the US and the University of Alberta. Key trends include “improvement” and “construction equipment,” with future focus on “machine learning” and “artificial intelligence.” Despite their potential, data challenges limit their use. More research is needed in developing countries to enhance construction labor productivity

Social media has an important place in the lives of individuals. It enables people to connect with each other, to be aware of their environment and the world, to have fun and often use social media platforms to stay informed. TikTok, a popular application among all segments of society, is one of them platforms. In TikTok, a global platform, young people constitute the largest segment of users. In this study, it is aimed to reveal the use of social media and TikTok by Generation Z. In the study employing a quantitative research methodology, a single survey model, one of the general survey models, was utilized. The data were collected via a face-to-face survey of 387 secondary school students born between 2006 and 2010 in Konya. The research findings showed that WhatsApp was the preferred social media platform among the participants. In addition, half of the participants were found to use TikTok and usage among Generation Z has increased compared to previous studies. Furthermore, half of the respondents do not create videos on the platform, preferring instead to share videos inspired by current trends. The research findings indicated that the participants' primary objective was to engage in entertainment-oriented TikTok video creation, social media usage, and TikTok-related activities. It was also found that half of the respondents do not trust TikTok when using TikTok.
The Secondary Market of Goods: Features of Remote Concluding and Executing of a Non-Retail Purchase and Sale Agreement

Published: July 2024

The features and problems of concluding a non‑retail purchase and sale agreement by remote means on the Avito online trading platform are very relevant, since after online retail trade, online trade in used goods began to gain momentum. Every second, more than 8 transactions are made through the Avito website, sellers add more than 900 thousand new ads daily, and the annual customer ﬂow is more than 80 million people. This indicates the need to study the legal issues related to the implementation of transactions on the Avito online trading platform. The paper analyzes Avito’s own rules of the marketplace, through which it was established who are the parties to this agreement, who makes an oﬀer and acceptance when concluding a non‑retail purchase and sale agreement with the condition of the transfer of goods through Avito delivery, who are the parties to this agreement. The author examines the form and content of a non‑retail purchase and sale agreement with a condition for the transfer of goods through Avito‑delivery. The author also focuses on the problem that the Avito website does not provide a technical opportunity for the implementation of the rights to claim provided for in paragraph 1 of Article 475 and paragraph 1 of Article 480 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation within the framework of a non‑retail purchase and sale agreement with a condition for the transfer of goods through Avito delivery. The paper proposes the ways of solving the indicated problem. The conclusions drawn in the paper are relevant not only for the Avito online trading platform, but also for other marketplaces in the secondary market of goods.

Published: July 2024

Background: Boils are the most prevalent non-odontogenic inflammatory condition of the head and neck. The treatment of skin and subcutaneous tissue inflammations in the Russian Armed Forces (RAF) is a pressing issue. We were unable to find any data on the etiopathogenesis of facial boils in otherwise healthy RAF members, as well as the factors that contribute to the development of this condition.
Aim: To examine the causes of facial boils in military personnel, the factors that contribute to their development, and the association between them using factor analysis.
Materials and Methods: Between 2019 and 2021, 53 patients aged 18 to 25 years were examined and treated for abscess-forming face boils. Of these, 38 (72%) were conscripts and 15 (28%) were contract servicemen. At admission, clinical examinations (complaints, history taking, status localis, facial skin type and status) and laboratory tests (complete blood count, blood chemistry, immunoassay, and bacterial tests, including the composition and antibiotic sensitivity of microflora) were performed. The control group included 30 otherwise healthy individuals aged 18 to 25 years. A mathematical model for predicting maxillofacial boil development in military personnel was generated using binomial regression analysis (logistic regression). The following variables were considered: age, length of service, season of disease development, serum glucose level, lymphocyte count, white blood cell count, CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, IgA, IgG, IgM, immunosuppressive regulatory T cells (CD4+CD25brightCD45+; % of all T helper cells), skin type, and microbial composition of maxillofacial skin.
Results: The mathematical model revealed that oily skin in combination with specific blood lymphocyte (20.30±1.03%) and IgG parameters (10.15±0.70%) increases the risk of maxillofacial boils in military personnel.
Conclusion: The study revealed the cumulative effect of general and local factors on the development and progression of facial boils in military personnel, allowing for more accurate prevention and treatment strategies.
Implications of Activity Rate Characterization and Fault-Based Partitioning on Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment: A Case Study of Extensional Tectonic Regime in Western Anatolia, Türkiye

Published: July 2024

Complex fault geometries with multiple sets of inclined active faults pose a challenge to the accurate representation of fault-based seismic sources in probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA). In the absence of slip rates associated with fault segments and the presence of sparse seismic and geodetic data, the estimation of segment-specific activity rate includes significant uncertainty. This study proposes a comprehensive procedure for defining the segment-specific activity rates and associated uncertainties in fault-based PSHA for extensional tectonic regimes and applies the procedure in the northern margin of Western Anatolian Extensional Province. The seismic sources are modeled as rupture systems with individual fault segments using the connections between available active fault traces, first-order geological complexities, earthquake catalog, and focal mechanism solutions. Alternatives to estimate and partition segment-specific activity rates based on annual slip rate, seismicity rate, and moment rate are explored. Each alternative is implemented in PSHA, and the results are compared in terms of peak ground acceleration (PGA) maps for a 475-year return period. A comparison of the 475 yr PGA maps showed that the activity rates based on annual slip rates translate into higher hazard estimates and a more uniform distribution of PGA; whereas, the activity rates based on seismicity and moment rate result in a PGA distribution that is more sensitive to the occurrence and location of previous large-magnitude events. The approach utilized to partition activity rates among parallel segments has a noticeable effect in the areas where highly asymmetric fault activity is inferred from morphology. Hence, alternative approaches for estimation and partition of activity rates are combined to model the epistemic uncertainty in segment-specific activity rates, and a repeatable procedure is developed to build fault-based seismic source models in the presence of complex fault geometries.
