Teacher, Professional or Both? A Mixed Method Study of the Professional Identity of Vocational Teachers and Trainers in Hungary
Authors: Bükki Eszter , Fehérvári Anikó
Published: June 2024

Purpose: Vocational educators in many countries enter teaching as a second career and authentic occupational expertise is seen as essential to good quality VET. The changing contexts of VET and the growing diversity of its learning populations also demand the development of teaching expertise. This dual professionalism is related to a unique combination of an occupational and a teacher identity, however, prior, and mainly qualitative research from a limited number of VET contexts suggests that often one side of this duality prevails. Our study aimed to explore the professional identity of vocational educators in Hungary and to identify some of the factors that might influence its formation. 
Methods: We applied a mixed method design, conducting a teacher survey (N=138) and semi-structured interviews (N=12). The quantitative and qualitative strands followed a parallel design, exploring the same topics but identity views and the organisational context were studied more deeply in the interviews. In the survey, we measured professional identity through a direct question about its type as well as questions about the importance of specific goals and teacher competence areas in vocational teaching. We used statistical and thematic analyses to study our quantitative and qualitative data. 
Results: Most vocational educators in our study identified as both a teacher and a professional, though the type of identity varied by gender and length of occupational work experience. Perceptions about the main goals in teaching revealed vocation/outcome-focused and student/education-focused goal orientations influenced by gender, qualifications and work experience, while our qualitative data also showed the impact of school culture and the wider socio-economic context. The goal orientations identified in the survey were more balanced for those with a dual identity, and they correlated with perceptions about the importance of different teacher competence areas, which were most influenced by whether or not the educator had obtained a pedagogical qualification. 
Conclusion: Our findings showed that although most vocational educators also in Hungary claim to have a dual identity, they often prioritise the development of occupational expertise as they believe it is what gives them credibility that is seen as essential to "good VET". Considering the significant impact we have found of teacher education and continued work in the occupation on identity views, it seems of utmost importance that policy and schools recognise and support the development of both occupational and teacher expertise, to ensure a balanced dual identity that seems best suited for vocational teaching.

Published: June 2024

Fiber lasers have numerous applications in various fields due to their compact design, low noise levels, high efficiency, and robust stability. We present a study focusing on the impact of cavity parameters on ultrashort pulses in fiber lasers, proposing an ultrafast laser that utilizes a MoTe2 saturable absorber (SA). Here numerical simulations allowed us to analyze the diverse pulse dynamics within a laser cavity, incorporating a SA, a segment of passive fiber, and erbium-doped fiber (EDF). Key factors of second-order dispersion, nonlinearity, gain saturation energy, small signal gain coefficient, and modulation depth and saturable energy of the SA were simulated. According to the simulations, we obtained the parameter settings for the minimum output pulse duration using a neural network and genetic algorithm. Then we proposed a normal dispersion laser with a MoTe2 mode-locker, capable of emitting dissipative soliton with a pulse duration of 824 fs and a spectrum bandwidth of 13.2 nm. These simulations provide valuable guidance for the design and optimization of fiber lasers, presenting a versatile and practical approach for applications.
Resampling the optical transmission matrix to accelerate the training of the diffractive deep neural network
Authors: Wu Lin , Xia Rui , Zhao Ming , Xiao Xi , He Zhixue , Zeng Yongquan , Yang Zhenyu , Tao Jin
Published: June 2024

The diffractive deep neural network (D2NN) enables all-optical implementation of machine learning tasks. During the training, the Rayleigh–Sommerfeld (RS) diffraction integral is employed for connecting neurons between neighboring hidden layers. The RS formula can be rewritten as a transmission matrix (TM), which allows for the parallel computation of multiple vectorized light fields. However, the TM has a large size, demanding substantial computational resources, and resulting in long training time. In this paper, we propose to resample the TM in free space based on the propagation invariant modes (PIMs), thereby reducing the size of the matrix, and accelerating the propagation simulations. This method enables the training of the large-scale D2NN with reduced memory requirements and fast speed.
Experimental and numerical study of a lateral waterjet laser cutting of an SS304 brush seal
Authors: Qin Xu , Qin Yuan , Wang Guangyuan , Yang Sen
Published: June 2024

This study explores the application of lateral waterjet laser cutting in the fabrication of brush seals for gas turbine engines, with the aim of optimizing process parameters to enhance cutting quality. Experimental and numerical analyses were conducted to assess the effects of laser power, scanning speed, waterjet velocity, and waterjet standoff distance on key outcomes, such as kerf width, heat-affected zone, and recast layer thickness. The findings indicate that a laser power of 500 W, scanning speed of 15 mm/s, waterjet velocity up to 10 m/s, and waterjet standoff distance of 1 mm are optimal for reducing thermal damage and achieving precise kerfs. Furthermore, numerical simulations highlight the significance of controlled molten flow in realizing these optimal results, providing a comprehensive understanding of the cutting mechanism. These findings position lateral waterjet laser cutting as a better technique for brush seal manufacturing, offering significant improvements over conventional methods.
Plasmonic metagrating-interlayer semiconductor (PMIS) structure for enhancing photodetection via hot-electron injection
Authors: Vu Nga , Heidarzadeh Parham , Chen Pai-Yen
Published: June 2024

Internal photoemission or hot-electron injection (HEJ) occurring at the metal-semiconductor (MS) Schottky interface has shown great promise in sub-bandgap photodetection and photovoltaics. In this paper, we put forward a plasmonic metagrating-interlayer-semiconductor (PMIS) structure that can significantly enhance the photon-to-electron conversion efficiency of HEJ-based optoelectronic devices. Thanks to the effect of image force-induced barrier lowering, a metal-interlayer-semiconductor (MIS) heterojunction with an ultrathin 2D material interlayer can considerably facilitate the hot electron transport across the Schottky barrier, resulting in a high internal quantum efficiency (IQE). Meanwhile, nanopatterning the MIS heterojunction into the plasmonic metagrating enables high optical absorption such that the device’s external quantum efficiency (EQE) can be nearly equal to its IQE. In addition, this device can be wavelength- and polarization-selective by tailoring the geometry and dimensions of plasmonic metagrating, thereby paving a promising path toward bandgap-independent photodetection, energy harvesting, and photocatalysis.
Temporal Talbot effect: from a quasi-linear Talbot carpet to soliton crystals and Talbot solitons
Authors: Zajnulina Marina , Böhm Michael
Published: June 2024

The temporal Talbot effect refers to the periodic self-imaging of pulse trains in optical fibers. The connection between the linear and nonlinear temporal Talbot effect is still not fully understood. To address this challenge, we use the soliton radiation beat analysis (SRBA) and numerically investigate the evolution of a phase-modulated continuous-wave laser input in a passive single-mode fiber. We identify three input-power-dependent regimes and their Talbot carpets: the quasi-linear regime for low input powers, the intermediate one, and separated Talbot solitons for higher powers. We show that the intermediate regime hosts soliton crystals rather than rogue waves, as reported in the literature. The Talbot soliton beating can be used for pulse repetition-rate multiplication in the nonlinear regime. We also show two types of solitons involved: some encoded in the whole frequency comb, and the individual solitons carried only by particular comb lines.
Health, welfare and lifetime performance implications of alternative hatching and early life management systems for broiler chickens
Authors: Hanna Hugo , Richmond Anne , Lavery Ursula , O’Connell Niamh E.
Published: June 2024

Broiler chicks are typically hatched in a hatchery, exposing them to handling and transportation before being placed on the farm where (dry) feed and water is offered. This study compared different early life systems, including: (1) typical practice (control), (2) typical practice with wet feed offered upon placement, (3) access to water at the hatchery, (4) access to feed and water at the hatchery, (5) hatching on the farm. Birds were placed in groups of approximately 500 (day 0), with six replicates per treatment. Measures were taken between placement and slaughter (day 39) and included chick quality (navel and red hock scores), body weight, feed conversion ratio (FCR), mortality, gait and litter conditions scores, and behavioral and post-mortem assessments. There were no apparent treatment effects on gait score, play behaviour or novel object test measures, and no consistent effects on litter quality. Chick quality was only evaluated in Treatments 1 and 5 and was numerically worse in Treatment 5. Body weight at slaughter was lowest in Treatment 2, and did not differ between other treatments. Overall FCR was lowest (best) in Treatment 1, and did not differ between other treatments. There was higher overall mortality in Treatments 3 and 4 than in other treatments apart from Treatment 5. Treatment 4 appeared to promote feeding behaviour upon placement, and Treatment 5 birds rested the most, significantly more than in Treatment 2. Treatment 5 birds had the greatest bursa weights, and tibial dyschondroplasia appeared worse in Treatment 4. There were no consistent effects of early access to feed and water on gastrointestinal tract weight measures at slaughter. Compared to the control, there were few benefits in providing feed and/or water in the hatchery, or wet feed. Some benefits of in-house hatching were found, but negative effects were also apparent.
(Mis)matched direct and moderating relationships among pro-environmental attitudes, environmental efficacy, and pro-environmental behaviors across and within 11 countries
Authors: Miller Lindsay B. , Rice Ronald E.
Published: June 2024

Pro-environmental behaviors are influenced by individuals’ pro-environmental attitudes and environmental efficacy, among many other factors. However, attitude-behavior models are inconsistent on whether and how attitudes, efficacy, and behaviors should match in specificity or generality, and on the moderation effect of efficacy. This study first tests a simple model including direct and moderating relationships between pro-environmental attitudes, environmental efficacy, and pro-environmental behaviors. Then it examines relationships among subscales matched or mismatched in their respective specific or general domain of environmental attitudes (concern, values), environmental efficacy (self, collective), and pro-environmental behaviors (private, public). Secondary data come from an overall sample of 11,000 respondents across 11 countries, with n = 1,000 from each country. Pro-environmental attitudes and efficacy have direct relationships with pro-environmental behavior, but efficacy has little moderation effect. Different combinations of (mis)matched measures produce slightly different results, with the most variance explained, counter to hypotheses, by two mismatched models. Results are generally consistent across countries.

Published: June 2024

INTRODUCTION:

The diagnosis of eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases is largely based on mucosal eosinophil counts, but thresholds and normal ranges beyond the esophagus are debated, calling for much-needed methodological standardization. We aimed to develop a standardized workflow for duodenal cell quantification and estimate duodenal eosinophil and mast cell numbers in healthy controls.

METHODS:

Software-based histological cell quantification using free-sized or fixed-sized regions was developed and applied to digitized hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)-stained slides from 58 individuals (healthy controls [HCs] and patients with functional dyspepsia). Intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) compared inter-rater reliability between software-based and microscopic quantification. Reproducibility of the software-based method was validated in an independent cohort of 37 control and functional dyspepsia subjects. Eosinophil identification on H&E staining was compared to immunohistochemistry (IHC). Normal eosinophil (H&E) and mast cell (cKit) ranges were determined in 70 adult HCs.

RESULTS:

Eosinophil quantification on digitized slides demonstrated excellent (ICC = 0.909) and significantly improved reproducibility over microscopic evaluation (ICC = 0.796,P= 0.0014), validated in an independent cohort (ICC = 0.910). Duodenal eosinophils were more abundant around crypts than in villi (P< 0.0001), while counts were similar on matched H&E- and IHC-stained slides (P= 0.55). Mean ± SD (95th percentile) duodenal eosinophils and mast cells in HC were 228.8/mm2± 94.7 (402.8/mm2) and 419.5/mm2± 132.2 (707.6/mm2), respectively.

DISCUSSION:

We developed and validated a standardized approach to duodenal histological cell quantification, generalizable to various mucosal cell types. Implementation of software-based quantification identified 400 eosinophils/mm2and 700 mast cells/mm2as thresholds for abnormal duodenal infiltration.

Com a crescente expansão dos recursos tecnológicos, necessita-se pensar em estratégias que contemplem essas ferramentas nos processos formativos, sobretudo considerando as possibilidades para o ensino de Biologia. Nessa perspectiva, os Materiais Autorais Digitais Educacionais (MADEs) se apresentam como alternativas para promover, entre outros aspectos, o engajamento, a proatividade e a autonomia dos/as alunos/as. Assim sendo, este trabalho tem o objetivo de analisar como os/as licenciandos/as em Biologia, pertencentes à Instituição Pública de Ensino Superior, utilizam os conceitos da Tecnodocência para desenvolverem seus MADEs, com vistas à melhoria da qualidade de aprendizagem. O presente estudo caracteriza-se como uma pesquisa qualitativa do tipo exploratória, a partir de uma análise cautelosa de dois materiais desenvolvidos no contexto da Licenciatura: uma página na rede social Instagram e um podcast. A análise possibilitou reconhecer nos MADEs determinadas perspectivas de utilização no contexto educacional, mas também identificou algumas fragilidades. Percebe-se uma articulação entre a interdisciplinaridade e os preceitos tecnodocentes, estabelecendo um paralelo dos elementos da formação e atuação docente aos aparatos tecnológicos. Considera-se que os MADEs denotam fecundas potencialidades para abordagem dos conteúdos, especialmente quando contempladas as possibilidades para ensinar e estudar Biologia, ao passo em que conjuntamente esta pesquisa pode servir de base para estudos futuros.

Authors: Khutezhev Zaudin  , Marita Mukhamedovna Abazova , Viacheslav Khautievich Unatlokov
Published: June 2024

The Adyghe (Kabardian-Circassian) diaspora language is studied in the article. The main form of the Kabardian-Circassian language existence outside the historical homeland is revealed, as well as some linguistic specifics of its functioning in historical retrospect. It is noted that migration processes (the 60s of the 19th century), as well as exogenous and endogenous factors, entailed a significant transformation of the Circassian diaspora speech. It is determined that long-term residence far from fellow citizens, lack of writing and interlingual interaction resulted in significant changes of the Adyghe (Kabardian-Circassian) diaspora language. The linguistic and sociocultural communicative practices of the Circassians abroad have also changed, which indicate modern forms of existence of the Kabardian-Circassian language in diaspora. The article concludes that currently the Kabardian-Circassian language in diaspora has its own specifics: it functions as an areal language with phonetic, grammatical, lexical, semantic, and stylistic specifics, but preserving the main features of the Kabardian-Circassian literary language. The materials of the article may be useful for researchers interested in studying Adyghe languages around the world.

At the initial stage, a correlation analysis was carried out, which made it possible, first of all, to establish the closeness of a linear relationship between different economic indicators, to correctly determine the type of relationship. The authors form 3 main components, including the financial performance of small enterprises and organizations, as well as a number of indicators reflecting the quantitative parameters of their activities and the degree of development of the tax consulting market. An analysis of the results showed that the strongest influence on the resulting "Balanced financial result of small enterprises in the Republic of Tatarstan" has a certain sequence of groups of factors, built according to the strength of their influence on the resulting one. However, all three coefficients of the listed three components fundamentally differ slightly from each other, which indicates a comparable strength of the impact of all three main components on the effective attribute. Increasing the cost of tax advice leads to an increase in the profits of small businesses.

Published: June 2024

In recent years, interest in using neuroscientific tools and techniques to study human behavior has increased. Many psychology researchers have tried to emphasize the influential role of brain processes in people's decisions and performance by using terms such as organizational cognitive neuroscience. While the previous teachings have emphasized the importance of the concept of schemas or mental templates as the infrastructure of new learning, cognitive neuroscience is looking for how knowledge, insight and experience are processed in the brain and how the neural connections in the brain cause learning and provide new behavior. In this paper, an attempt has been made to examine and introduce neural strategy in different stages of human behavior and its application in people's jobs and lives by reviewing the work done and categorizing neuroscience techniques.

Published: June 2024

The integration of Ukrainian institutions of higher education into the global educational space presents both challenges and opportunities. This study aims to characterize the integration process, identify challenges, and explore opportunities for overcoming them. Statistical data from Quacquarelli Symonds educational institution rankings for 2022 and global rankings, including the Education Index and Education Expenditure as a percentage of GDP for 2022, were utilized. Qualitative data were collected through a search in scholarly databases such as Ebsco, Google Scholar, PubMed, and WoS. The results showed that the integration of Ukrainian Higher Education Institutions into the global education space faces several challenges, including limited experience in international cooperation and participation in European educational programs, as well as inadequate preparation for project proposal submissions and a low level of proficiency in foreign languages, particularly English. Additionally, insufficient financial support for international projects hinders the modernization of Ukraine's higher education system and the enhancement of workforce training quality. Despite these challenges, Ukrainian HEIs have significant potential for development and competitiveness enhancement through cooperation with European and international partners. In conclusion it is shown that to ensure successful integration, Ukraine should increase the state's role in stimulating international cooperation among HEIs and provide necessary support.

Apoiado no triângulo universidade, escola e professores, defendido por Nóvoa, o estudo é dividido em duas etapas: a pesquisa (de)formação e a elaboração da metodologia. A discussão apresentada neste artigo corresponde aos dados obtidos nas duas etapas da pesquisa, que contou com um grupo de 42 professores dos anos iniciais e finais da Educação Básica, vinculados a uma das Coordenadorias Regionais de Educação do estado do Rio Grande do Sul (CRE) e que, voluntariamente, participaram da pesquisa. Os dados analisados demonstraram que os professores associam Cultura Digital ao uso de artefatos tecnológicos e que formações continuadas devem acontecer, preferencialmente, no horário de trabalho destes profissionais. O conceito de Cultura Digital, central nesta pesquisa, está relacionado às formas de viver na Contemporaneidade e, portanto, ultrapassam o uso das tecnologias enquanto ferramentas de mediação da aprendizagem. Tais resultados subsidiaram a elaboração da metodologia para formações de professores para a Cultura Digital, produto educacional que resultou da pesquisa relatada neste artigo.

Published: June 2024

Este artigo apresenta resultados de estudo destinado à analisar a percepção de professores de colégios privados sobre o que consideram importante na relação com o diretor e como tal relacionamento influencia a equipe e o trabalho docente. Quanto ao método, foi desenvolvida pesquisa qualitativa envolvendo a realização de doze entrevistas com professores de escolas privadas de quatro estados brasileiros. Os achados indicam que o relacionamento é um componente essencial para uma liderança bem-sucedida no ambiente escolar. Portanto, a maioria dos relatos traz aspectos relacionais como elementos chave para a identificação do professor com a instituição. Comunicação aberta e transparente; construção conjunta e compartilhamento de diretrizes e estratégias escolares; diretor como ponto de apoio e conector de pessoas e criador de um ambiente de criatividade e autonomia. Quanto às suas contribuições, a pesquisa é relevante ao trazer a perspectiva dos liderados sobre o fenômeno da liderança. Na literatura sobre educação, particularmente, são raros os estudos nacionais que investigam as expectativas dos professores em relação aos diretores. Por fim, outra contribuição está em inserir a discussão da abordagem relacional de liderança, uma das mais contemporâneas do campo, no ambiente escolar, ainda caracterizado por um estilo de gestão centralizador.
Wychowanie w rodzinie katolickiej. Refleksja na tle adhortacji Familiaris consortio i Amoris laetitia

Published: June 2024

Wychowanie jest wpisane w naturę człowieka. Jest ono wielką sztuką. Wymaga nie tylko specjalistycznej wiedzy, talentu pedagogicznego, ale także więzi uczuciowych pomiędzy wychowującym a  wychowywanym. Osoby odpowiedzialne za wychowanie, powinny pamiętać, że wychowuje się nie tyle słowem co świadectwem życia. Celem artykułu: „Wychowanie w rodzinie katolickiej. Refleksja na tle adhortacji Familiaris consortio i Amoris laetitia” jest zwrócenie uwagi na trudności z jakimi boryka się współczesna rodzina w wychowaniu młodego pokolenia. Autorka zwraca uwagę na troskę Kościoła, dotyczącą wychowania współczesnej młodzieży. Cenne uwagi można znaleźć w nauczaniu świętego Jana Pawła II i papieża Franciszka. W pracy wykorzystano metodę krytycznej analizy tekstu, metodę porównawczą oraz pozytywnego wykładu.
Freedom and Fundamental Option
Authors: Reimers Adrian J.
Published: June 2024

Teoria „fundamentalnej opcji” lub „fundamentalnej wolności” stanowi ważny temat we współczesnej teologii moralnej, temat skrytykowany w encyklice Jana Pawła II Veritatis splendor. Zgodnie z tą teorią prawie niemożliwe jest popełnienie grzechu śmiertelnego, to znaczy grzechu, który zwraca człowieka przeciwko Bogu i pozbawia go łaski uświęcającej. Główną koncepcją rządzącą tą teorią jest to, że taki grzech musi wiązać się z wyraźnym odwróceniem całego siebie (lub woli) od Boga. Jednak w ramach ograniczeń przestrzeni i czasu oraz skończoności ludzkiej natury, takie całkowite zwrócenie się przeciwko Bogu jest trudne do wyobrażenia. Niniejszy artykuł dowodzi, że kwestia grzechu jest błędnie pojmowana, że ﬁlozoﬁczne założenie fundamentalnego usposobienia własnej wolności jest nie do utrzymania. Grzech jest kategorią teologiczną i musi być pojmowany w kategoriach teologicznych. W artykule ukazano grzech jako objawiony i właściwie rozumiany w kategoriach ukrzyżowania Chrystusa, na co zwraca uwagę Jan Paweł II w encyklice Dominum et Viviﬁcantem. Artykuł kończy się kilkoma reﬂeksjami na temat tych, którzy byli bezpośrednio zaangażowani w ukrzyżowanie.
Koncepcja przedmiotu aktu moralnego jako główny temat sporu o intrinsece malum
Authors: Plich Robert
Published: June 2024

Artykuł przedstawia zagadnienie tzw. czynów wewnętrznie złych, zabronionych absolutnymi zakazami moralnymi, stanowiących przedmiot nauczania moralnego Kościoła katolickiego, przypomniany i potwierdzony przez Jana Pawła II w encyklice Veritatis splendor. Nauczanie to zostało poddane kontestacji i rewizji przez niektórych teologów po Soborze Watykańskim II. W pracy zaprezentowano istotę tej rewizji, która z czasem została określona jako proporcjonalizm oraz wpływ, jaki na jej genezę wywarło błędne rozumienie przedmiotu aktu moralnego zwane ﬁzykalizmem, wywodzące się z tradycji kazuistycznej. Następnie zostały przedstawione zasadnicze elementy krytyki proporcjonalizmu, a zwłaszcza niedostrzeżenie przez jego zwolenników roli i znaczenia aktu wyboru dla właściwego rozumienia ludzkiego działania oraz dla moralnej kwaliﬁkacji całego czynu i jego sprawcy. W tym kontekście omówione zostało jedno z podstawowych zagadnień spornych pomiędzy proporcjonalistami, a katolicką, teologiczną tradycją moralną, które stanowi koncepcja przedmiotu aktu moralnego. W artykule wskazano także na niektóre konsekwencje, jakie ten spór może wywierać na życie moralne i teorię moralności. Założone cele pracy zostały zrealizowane na podstawie nauczania Magisterium i analizy ludzkiego działania, dokonanej przez św. Tomasza z Akwinu, z wykorzystaniem odpowiednich tekstów biblijnych i argumentów sformułowanych we współczesnej debacie teologicznej, wywołanej nauczaniem encykliki Veritatis splendor.
Dyskontowanie czasu i preferencja czasowa w analizie moralno-ekonomicznej Leonarda Lessiusa SJ
Authors: Gniadek Jacek
Published: June 2024

Przedmiotem analizy jest pojęcie preferencji czasowej u ﬂamandzkiego jezuity i teologa moralisty, Leonarda Lessiusa SJ (†1623), który żył i pracował w Europie w okresie wielkich przemian, wywołanych rewolucją protestancką. Lichwa była nadal zakazana, ale prawo kanoniczne nie obowiązywało już wszystkich. Celem opracowania jest wykazanie, że odwoływanie się do prawa naturalnego pomaga zrozumieć zachowania człowieka w sferze gospodarczej i nie stoi w sprzeczności z objawieniem Bożym. Punktem odniesienia jest austriacka szkoła ekonomii, gdyż odkrycia Lessiusa zwiastowały zrozumienie zjawiska preferencji czasowej, co pozwoliło później przedstawicielom tej szkoły ostatecznie wyjaśnić naturę odsetek i lichwy. Analiza myśli ﬂamandzkiego jezuity prowadzi do wniosku, że w świecie istnieje naturalny porządek rzeczy, który można odkryć przy naturalnym świetle rozumu wlanym przez Boga.

Objective Emerging evidence suggests that air pollution exposure may increase the risk of Parkinson’s disease (PD). We aimed to investigate the association between exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and the risk of incident PD nationwide.Methods We utilized data from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Research Database, which is spatiotemporally linked with air quality data from the Taiwan Environmental Protection Administration website. The study population consisted of participants who were followed from the index date (January 1, 2005) until the occurrence of PD or the end of the study period (December 31, 2017). Participants who were diagnosed with PD before the index date were excluded. To evaluate the association between exposure to PM2.5 and incident PD risk, we employed Cox regression to estimate the hazard ratio and 95% confidence interval (CI).Results A total of 454,583 participants were included, with a mean (standard deviation) age of 63.1 (9.9) years and a male proportion of 50%. Over a mean follow-up period of 11.1 (3.6) years, 4% of the participants (n = 18,862) developed PD. We observed a significant positive association between PM2.5 exposure and the risk of PD, with a hazard ratio of 1.22 (95% CI, 1.20–1.23) per interquartile range increase in exposure (10.17 μg/m3) when adjusting for both SO2 and NO2.Conclusion We provide further evidence of an association between PM2.5 exposure and the risk of PD. These findings underscore the urgent need for public health policies aimed at reducing ambient air pollution and its potential impact on PD.
A rare case of Richter transformation with breast involvement: A case report and literature review

Richter transformation (RT) represents the development of intrusive lymphoma in individuals previously or concurrently diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and is characterized by lymph node enlargement. However, cases involving extra-nodal organ involvement as the first symptom are rare. There are no reports of RT with breast lesions as the first symptom. Nonspecific and atypical clinical manifestations represent key challenges in the accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment of RT. This case report describes an elderly female patient who presented with breast lesions as the first RT symptom. The patient was admitted with a painless mass in the left breast. Examination revealed multiple lymphadenopathies and abnormally high white blood cell levels. The patient was diagnosed with CLL after hematological tests, assessments of bone marrow morphology, and tissue biopsy. Mammography and B-ultrasonography showed solid space-occupying lesions (BI-RADS category 5) in the left breast. Initially, the patient declined a breast biopsy and was therefore prescribed ibrupotinib treatment, which showed limited efficacy. A needle biopsy of the affected breast indicated the presence of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Based on auxiliary and pathological examinations and medical history, the final diagnosis was RT with breast involvement. Zanubrutinib with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone treatment provided initial control; however, the treatment strategy required adjustment because of the patient’s fluctuating condition. The current status of the patient is marked as stable, showing an overall achievement of partial alleviation. The patient is in the process of receiving follow-up treatment. We also performed a comprehensive literature review on RT, with particular emphasis on its biological paradigm, prognosis implications, existing therapeutic approaches, and emerging directions in treatment modalities.
