Published: October 2024

Paliurus spina-christi Miller (PSC) is a shrub plant with important biological activities. For this reason, the phytochemical and biological activities of the PSC leaf and seed extracts were investigated in our study. This study performs phytochemical analyses (total phenol and flavonoid content, LC-ESI-MS/MS, and GC-MS/MS) and bioactivity assays (antioxidant) for the PSC leaves and seeds. In silico study and PASS prediction of main compounds in LC-ESI-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS analysis were also investigated. The leaf extract showed a high total phenolic and flavonoid content. In addition, the contents of hesperidin (25.548 mg/g extract) were high in the LC-ESI-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS analyses. It was noted that the leaf extract's antioxidant activities were higher than standard. The molecular docking of hesperidin with xanthine oxidase and cytochrome P450 1A1 had high MolDock score (-179.68, -149.156) and binding energy (-11.40 kcal/mol, -9.90 kcal/mol), respectively. This investigation pioneered using PSC leaf extracts as food supplements and medicine.

HPLC-TOF/MS analysis showed that the CHCl3 and BuOH extracts had low levels of standard phenols, and the main components in the EA extract (in mg/kg plant) were cinnamic acid (5.92), hesperidin (4.7), apigetrin (4.5) and p-coumaric acid (2.8). the 1H NMR spectrum showed that the CHCl3 and EA extracts were rich in phenols.
Empirical Stability Criteria for 3D Hierarchical Triple Systems. I. Circumbinary Planets
Authors: Georgakarakos Nikolaos , Eggl Siegfried , Ali-Dib Mohamad , Dobbs-Dixon Ian
Published: October 2024

In this work we revisit the problem of the dynamical stability of hierarchical triple systems with applications to circumbinary planetary orbits. We derive critical semimajor axes based on simulating and analyzing the dynamical behavior of 3 × 108 binary star–planet configurations. For the first time, three-dimensional and eccentric planetary orbits are considered. We explore systems with a variety of binary and planetary mass ratios, binary and planetary eccentricities from 0 to 0.9, and orbital mutual inclinations ranging from 0° to 180°. Planetary masses range between the size of Mercury and the lower fusion boundary (approximately 13 Jupiter masses). The stability of each system is monitored over 106 planetary orbital periods. We provide empirical expressions in the form of multidimensional, parameterized fits for two borders that separate dynamically stable, unstable, and mixed zones. In addition, we offer a machine learning model trained on our data set as an alternative tool for predicting the stability of circumbinary planets. Both the empirical fits and the machine learning model are tested for their predictive capabilities against randomly generated circumbinary systems with very good results. The empirical formulae are also applied to the Kepler and TESS circumbinary systems, confirming that many planets orbit their host stars close to the stability limit of those systems. Finally, we present a REST application programming interface with a web-based application for convenient access to our simulation data set.
Evolution of Tidal Disruption Event Disks with Magnetically Driven Winds
Authors: Tamilan Mageshwaran , Hayasaki Kimitake , Suzuki Takeru K.
Published: October 2024

We present a time-dependent, one-dimensional, magnetically driven disk wind model based on magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations, in the context of tidal disruption events (TDEs). We assume that the disk is geometrically thin, is gas pressure dominated, and explicitly accounts for magnetic braking and turbulent viscosity through an extended α-viscosity prescription. We find a particular wind solution for a set of basic equations that satisfies the necessary and sufficient conditions for vertically unbound MHD flows. The solution shows that the disk evolves with mass loss due to wind and accretion from the initial Gaussian density distribution. We confirm that the mass accretion rate follows the power law of time t
−19/16 at late times in the absence of wind, which matches the classical solution of J. K. Cannizzo et al. We find that the mass accretion rate is steeper than the t
−19/16 curve when the wind is present. Mass accretion is also induced by magnetic braking, known as the wind-driven accretion mechanism, which results in a faster decay with time of both the mass accretion and mass-loss rates. In the disk emission, the ultraviolet (UV) luminosity is the highest among the optical, UV, and X-ray luminosities. While the optical and X-ray emission is observationally insignificant without magnetic braking, the X-ray emission is brighter at late times, especially in the presence of magnetic braking. This provides a possible explanation for observed delayed X-ray flares. Our model predicts that late-time bolometric light curves steeper than t
−19/16 in UV-bright TDEs are potentially compelling indicators of magnetically driven winds.
Electron Acceleration in Magnetic Islands in Quasi-parallel Shocks
Authors: Bessho N. , Chen L.-J. , Hesse M. , Ng J. , Wilson L. B. , Stawarz J. E. , Madanian H.
Published: October 2024

We report new theories and simulations for electron acceleration in magnetic islands generated by magnetic reconnection in the shock turbulence in a quasi-parallel shock, using a 2 and 1/2 dimensional particle-in-cell simulation. When an island is moving, unmagnetized electrons are accelerated by the Hall electric field pointing toward the island center. In a stationary island, some electrons are energized by “island betatron acceleration” due to the induction electric field when the island core magnetic field changes with time. In the simulation, almost all of the high-energy electrons in the shock transition region that show a power-law distribution are accelerated in ion-skin-depth-scale magnetic flux ropes, and about half of them are accelerated by the Hall electric field and island betatron acceleration. These mechanisms can produce a power-law electron distribution, and also inject electrons into the diffusive shock acceleration. The mechanisms are applicable to quasi-parallel shocks with high Alfvén Mach numbers (M
A > 10), including planetary bow shocks and shocks in astrophysical objects such as supernova remnants.
What Matters for an occurrenceID and What Is an occurrenceID That Matters?
Authors: Gan Yi-Ming , Benson Abigail , Mayorga Emilio , Pye Jonathan , Formel Stephen
Published: October 2024

In the Darwin Core data standard (Darwin Core Maintenance Group 2023), the concept of dwc:Occurrence (Wieczorek et al. 2012) in ecological data presents a data model construct not commonly found in data management practices used by ecological data collectors. We frequently encounter raw data without an Occurrence table. For example, the concept of Occurrence can be represented as a cell, where the rows represent sampling sites, the columns represent species, and the value of each cell indicates the count of the species at a specific site. A value in a cell in such a matrix can be interpreted as x number of individuals of species y occurred at sampling site z.

While data providers tend to track data on tangible individual components (e.g., species, location, sample), generating "Occurrence records" typically requires pivoting and/or joining tables associated to these components. Maintaining a stable and persistent occurrenceID for an Occurrence record created through data transformation is not an easy task. This is especially true for long-term monitoring datasets, where the underlying tables used to generate Occurrence records are continuously updated.

Additionally, most ecological data collectors are focused on the primary use of the data, not on the long term integration and accessibility of the data. The Occurrence concept is only required in data exchange format but not needed in ecological data management practices. The disconnect between the practical data management needs of data collectors and the abstractions required for data exchange raises challenges, particularly with an increasing expectation for globally unique and persistent occurrenceIDs.

This presentation will explore the difficulties of creating and managing occurrenceIDs for data providers and managers, especially those who manage data using basic systems such as spreadsheets and simple relational databases. Maintaining stability and persistence of identifiers for inherently artificial constructs like Occurrences within the original, component-based data structure can pose significant challenges. We will explore why meaningful identifiers for occurrenceIDs are often preferred by data providers. We will unpack different use cases and delve into how and why occurrenceIDs were constructed for each use case. Through this discussion, we hope to spark a conversation that informs future data modeling efforts and addresses the inherent artificiality of Occurrences.

Authors: Killeen Olivia J. , Saleem Zara , Vorias Theodora , Mubeen Amani , Miller Aleah , Sridhara Rhea , Gibson Megan , Wang Anna , Chang Tammy
Published: October 2024

Purpose

To evaluate “beezin,” a social media trend that involves applying Burt's Bees Lip Balm to the eyelids to induce intoxication, which has the potential to cause ocular problems.

Methods

Researchers identified the top TikTok videos about beezin using the search terms “beezing,” “beezin,” “burtsbees,” “Burt's Bees on eyelids,” and “burtsbeeschallenge.” Researchers watched each video and recorded key information. Descriptive statistics were calculated.

Results

Sixty top videos were included in the analysis; they had more than 158 million views and more than 11 million likes. More than half (n = 37, 61%) portrayed the trend positively, 11 (18%) portrayed the trend negatively, and 12 (20%) took a neutral stance on the trend. None of the videos were created by a health care provider.

Conclusions

Beezin is a viral social media trend that may cause ocular problems. There is a need for factual TikTok content to combat the trend. Health care providers should consider beezin when adolescent patients present with contact dermatitis, conjunctivitis, or other possible sequelae of beezin.

An Analysis of Pediatric Ophthalmology Content on Instagram
Authors: Borkhetaria Rucha K. , Ely Amanda L.
Published: October 2024

Purpose

To analyze pediatric ophthalmology–related information on Instagram (Meta Platforms, Inc).

Methods

A cross-sectional study queried 112 common eye terms and conditions from the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus website as hashtags on Instagram. A categorical classification system was used to analyze the top 9 posts per hashtag for likes, comments, views, and engagement level ratio (ELR). Posts were further characterized by author and content type.

Results

Analysis of the top 901 posts that met our inclusion criteria revealed a cumulative 424,608 likes, 15,793 comments, and 2,873,042 views. Authors had a total of 76,076,455 followers. Patients/families created the greatest number of posts (37.6%), followed by companies (20.2%), other (14.9%), medical organizations (12.3%), international ophthalmologists (6.1%), optometrists (5.9%), and American Board of Ophthalmology–certified ophthalmologists (3.0%). Content was mostly patient experience (42.4%), followed by educational (29.7%), self-promotional (13.5%), other (10.5%), and career-related (3.8%). Companies authored the highest number of educational posts (23.5%), followed by medical institutions (20.9%), other (19.4%), international ophthalmologists (13.8%), optometrists (13.4%), and American Board of Ophthalmology–certified ophthalmologists (4.5%) and patients (4.5%).

Conclusions

Although pediatric ophthalmology content presented by board-certified ophthalmology Instagram authors had a greater number of followers than most other author categories, ophthalmologist authors on Instagram are still underrepresented. Additional research is warranted to help promote ophthalmologist-authored posts.

Enhancing structural health monitoring with machine learning for accurate prediction of retrofitting effects
Authors: Presno Vélez A. , Fernández Muñiz M. Z. , Fernández Martínez J. L.
Published: October 2024

Structural health in civil engineering involved maintaining a structure's integrity and performance over time, resisting loads and environmental effects. Ensuring long-term functionality was vital to prevent accidents, economic losses, and service interruptions. Structural health monitoring (SHM) systems used sensors to detect damage indicators such as vibrations and cracks, which were crucial for predicting service life and planning maintenance. Machine learning (ML) enhanced SHM by analyzing sensor data to identify damage patterns often missed by human analysts. ML models captured complex relationships in data, leading to accurate predictions and early issue detection. This research aimed to develop a methodology for training an artificial intelligence (AI) system to predict the effects of retrofitting on civil structures, using data from the KW51 bridge (Leuven). Dimensionality reduction with the Welch transform identified the first seven modal frequencies as key predictors. Unsupervised principal component analysis (PCA) projections and a K-means algorithm achieved $ 70 \% $ accuracy in differentiating data before and after retrofitting. A random forest algorithm achieved $ 99.19 \% $ median accuracy with a nearly perfect receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The final model, tested on the entire dataset, achieved $ 99.77 \% $ accuracy, demonstrating its effectiveness in predicting retrofitting effects for other civil structures.
MDRN: Multi-distillation residual network for efficient MR image super-resolution
Authors: Deng Liwei , Chen Jingyi , Yang Xin , Huang Sijuan
Published: October 2024

Super-resolution (SR) of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is gaining increasing attention for being able to provide detailed anatomical information. However, current SR methods often use the complex convolutional network for feature extraction, which is difficult to train and not suitable for limited computation resources in the medical scenario. To tackle these bottlenecks, we propose a multi-distillation residual network (MDRN) for more differential feature refinement, which has a superior trade-off between reconstruction accuracy and computation cost. Specifically, a novel feature multi-distillation residual block with a contrast-aware channel attention module was designed to make the residual features more focused on low-vision information, which maximizes the power of MDRN. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate the superiority of our MDRN over state-of-the-art methods in reconstruction quality and efficiency. Our method outperforms other existing methods in peak signal-noise ratio by up to 0.44–1.82 dB in 4× scale when GPU memory and runtime are lower than in other SR methods.

The scope of this study is to describe the ethnobotany of medicinal plants used in the management of diabetes mellitus (DM) among diabetic patients attending the Teaching Hospital, Jaffna. A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among 388 patients attending the medical clinic of Teaching Hospital, Jaffna, using systematic sampling technique. Data were collected using a validated structured interviewer-administered questionnaire and were analysed to generate the summary of the percentages using descriptive statistics. Family Important Value (FIV) and Related Frequency Citation (RFC) were calculated to quantitatively determine the common consent between the informants on the use of endemic medicinal plants in the division. A total of 59 species belonging to 33 families were reported by 329 diabetic patients with the response rate of 100%. Among them Moringa oleifera Lamk. (142) was stated as the species with the highest RFC value, followed by Gymnema sylvestre (105), Momordica charantia Linn. (104). Moringaceae was the most dominant family with FIV 43.16. The value of RFC of the plants mentioned in this survey varied from 0.003 to 0.432. Moringa oleifera Lamk. showed the highest RFC value (0.432). In this study, 29 plant species used for DM management were reported for the first time in Sri Lanka. Further, antidiabetic property of Achyranthus polygonoides, Argyreia pomacea Wall. ex Choisy and Cassia tomentosa are yet to be investigated. These findings facilitate the documentation and the conservation of medicinal plants used for DM by the patients in Teaching Hospital, Jaffna, Sri Lanka. Moreover this study open doors for phytochemical screening and identification of new antidiabetic active compounds.

Authors: Modise Hluphekile M. , Mboweni Sheillah H.
Published: October 2024

Background: Over 50 million people are blind, and 135 million people suffer from severe visual impairments, with cataracts contributing to 51% of global blindness cases. Despite efforts to promote cataract surgery (CS), many patients remain hesitant, underscoring the importance of understanding their perspectives.Aim: This study aimed to explore and describe patients’ perceptions regarding reluctance to undergo CS to improve awareness and increase surgery uptake.Setting: The research was conducted in the Sedibeng District, Gauteng province, South Africa.Methods: A qualitative descriptive phenomenological design was employed to capture the lived experiences of patients through face-to-face, individual semi-structured interviews with 15 patients aged 38 – 72 years prior to their CS. Purposive sampling was used to select participants, and Colaizzi’s seven-step analysis was used for data analysis.Results: The findings highlight several barriers perceived by participants, including long waiting times; fear; lack of knowledge; limited financial, material and human resources; power outages; uncontrolled blood sugar levels; and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic restrictions. Nevertheless, some view it positively as a means to avert blindness and enhance vision.Conclusion: To address the challenges, the study recommends boosting the number of eye health care professionals, prioritising budget allocation, addressing electricity interruptions and conducting community outreach educational programmes to improve access to CS in the district.Contribution: The insights gained from this study can help health care providers and policymakers optimise care and support for CS patients through policy formulation and education. Addressing these knowledge gaps will likely increase surgery uptake and improve patients’ quality of life.
Communication Intervention in South Africa: Advocating for the Listening and Spoken Language Approach
Authors: Casoojee Aisha
Published: October 2024

Adhering to Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) guidelines is critical for the timely identification and management of infants with hearing impairment. Early intervention specifically focusses on family-centred communication interventions, of which the Listening and Spoken Language–South Africa (LSL-SA) approach is available for children with hearing impairment in South Africa. Studies have evidenced significant benefits for children with hearing impairment enrolled in LSL-SA compared to those enrolled in Traditional Speech-Language Therapy (TSLT), that is, age-equivalent communication outcomes, shorter duration of therapy until discharge, meritorious academic performance and integration into a hearing society. Despite these positive outcomes related to the LSL-SA approach, significant contextual barriers hinder effective implementation nationwide.Contribution: The successful implementation of EHDI guidelines in South Africa hinges on overcoming barriers through tailored healthcare strategies and contextualised delivery. Adapting frameworks such as LSL-SA to fit the local context is crucial for advancing equitable access to EHDI services, positively impacting children with hearing impairment and their families. This article highlights the systemic challenges in South Africa in optimising resources by adopting linguistically appropriate and culturally responsive early intervention approaches to champion hearing healthcare initiatives. Effective collaboration among diverse stakeholders is essential for enhancing the uptake of EHDI guidelines and translating policy into impactful communication interventions. Implementing the core principles of the LSL-SA approach will not only ensure access to this specialised service for suitable candidates but may also alleviate specific barriers to EHDI implementation within TSLT approaches.

Authors: Leal Michelle , Adan Marilyn , Heilman Keri J. , Cockcroft Kate
Published: October 2024

Background: Disruptive mood dysregulation disorder (DMDD) is characterised by severe emotion regulation difficulties, particularly anger and irritability, in children. Despite the impact of attachment on emotional and behavioural regulation, the link between attachment style and DMDD is under-researched.Aim: This study investigated whether attachment style and parasympathetic regulation differentiate the response profiles to frustrating conditions between children diagnosed with DMDD and controls.Setting: Participants were assessed at schools in Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa.Methods: Thirty participants were divided into two matched groups (nDMDD = 15; nControl = 15) and assessed. Respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) and heart period were measured during an Affective Posner Task, inducing frustration. Attachment style was assessed using the Attachment Style Classification Questionnaire for children. Parents of children with DMDD completed a social interaction problems questionnaire.Results: The DMDD group showed a higher prevalence of avoidant attachment style (p = 0.013) compared to controls. Both groups displayed adaptive vagal withdrawal and recovery during the task (p = 0.005; p = 0.021). Controls had significantly higher heart period throughout the assessment (game 1: p = 0.006; game 2: p = 0.013; game 3: p = 0.007). In the DMDD group, lower vagal tone during frustration correlated with more social interaction problems (p = 0.049).Conclusion: The study demonstrates a potential link between attachment style and altered physiological state in children with DMDD.Contribution: The findings provide insight into possible atypical vagal regulation of the heart and avoidant attachment styles in DMDD, highlighting potential therapeutic and intervention targets.
Smart Irrigation System using IOT
Authors: Aakunuri Manjula
Published: October 2024

The majority of nations rely heavily on agriculture to power their economies. A nation's growth is mostly dependent on agriculture, notably for people's livelihood and the production of food and other raw resources. The rise of agriculture is the main driver of a nation's economy. One type of irrigation system that is frequently utilized in the agricultural industry is the smart irrigation system. In areas of farming where water is scarce, irrigation is used. This intelligent irrigation system is designed with farmers in mind. In this paper, the proposed smart irrigation system uses NodeMCU ESP8266. This system reads the values using sensors and waters the plants based on those values. Also, the system will send notification as well as email to the owner for a certain interval of time depending on the owner specification. The owner can also remotely monitor values by using the mobile application or web application. It is very easy to implement, and will save manpower, leading to a cost-effective solution for efficient water management in agriculture. This system harnesses the power of a microcontroller to monitor and control irrigation process, ensuring optimal water usage.
TRANSFORMACIONES EN LA CONFIGURACIÓN Y FUNCIONALIDADES DE LA PERIFERIA URBANA NOROESTE DE LA GRAN ÁREA METROPOLITANA DE COSTA RICA (GAM)
Authors: Picado Huberth Vargas , Chaves Jonnathan Reyes
Published: October 2024

The peripheries are generally conceived as scenarios for expanding various economic activities in central cities, and their land uses usually explain both their functionality and territorial organization. However, the literature shows that the logic that configures these places also goes through a framework of territorialized human relations and that their forms of organization are also linked to social valuations. Given the above, the research emphasizes the importance of taking a comprehensive look, based on spatial structures, to understand the changes and contemporary functionalities of the periphery under study. For this, a qualitative methodology of an ethnographic type was considered, based on observing land uses and the practices of the different users. As a result, the spatial structures approach made evident other activities and relationships between society and the environment, such as forms of recreation on agricultural land, the agriculturization process, agro-productive diversification, and changes in residential models, which must be taken into account for current and future planning of the periphery. Keywords: Land Use, Transformations in Urban Peripheries, Functionalities, Geographic Space, Social Valuation, Gran Área Metropolitana.
STRUCTURAL-URBAN POVERTY IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY
Authors: Moysés Mauricio
Published: October 2024

This article presents a theoretical reflection on interpretations of poverty, principally contemporary urban poverty, inspired by the works of Milton Santos. It is based on Geographical critical theory and other potential dialogues that contextualize and analyze poverty, understood here as the result of structural violence in territorial formation and Brazilian metropolises. It is concluded that poverty is structural-urban and can inform a qualitative debate (not only quantitative) on the lack of human dignity seeking to recognize the legitimacy of existence in places. Keywords: Violence, Urban Poverty, Metropolises, Socio-spatial Formation.
SYMBOLISM OF GEODIVERSITY IN AFRO-BRAZILIAN RELIGIONS

Published: October 2024

If, throughout evolutionary history, an analogy is made between humans and nature using elements of geodiversity, symbolic processes will emerge for human beings. They construct a sacralized nature revealed in their worship, practices, and beliefs, where nature becomes a symbolic element imbued with meaning. These elements of geodiversity are found in various religious traditions, with notable examples being Indigenous/Shamanic practices, Umbanda, Candomblé, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Christianity, among others. As a result, this article focuses on African rituals which represent their original matrix and a tradition primarily marked by orality (in contrast to the main Western monotheistic religions that have sacred texts) and direct religious learning through daily practice in the “terreiro” (the place of worship). The analysis of geodiversity and its use in these religious manifestations leads to the reflection that it is still necessary to recognize and disseminate geodiversity and its various uses more extensively, as it assists us in appreciating understanding and interpreting religions from a different perspective, providing more consistency and authenticity. Keywords: Afro-Brazilian Religions; Geodiversity; Simbolism.
THE CONCEPT OF CARTOGRAPHY, DEFINITIONS FROM 1960 TO 2000
Authors: Gomes Francisco Carlos Moreira , Menezes Paulo Márcio de Leal , Fernandes Manoel do Couto
Published: October 2024

From the 1940s to 2000, reflecting on the conceptual transformations in the field and their relationship with technological advancements. Initially, the UN provided the definition of Cartography, but from 1965 onwards, the ICA assumed this responsibility. Over the span of 40 years, these definitions evolved considerably. In 1992, Fraser Taylor, as the president of the ICA, introduced a significant update by incorporating the term "geoinformation" into the definition. This modification broadened the scope of Cartography to include other forms of spatial representation. However, in the late 1990s, there was a regression when the ICA simplified the definition of Cartography, restricting it to the study of maps. This dynamic illustrates that the evolution of scientific debates does not always follow a linear trajectory, often oscillating between advancements and regressions. Consequently, it is concluded that ongoing conceptual debates around the definition of Cartography are essential to keep pace with emerging technological and theoretical innovations in the field.

SOCIAL CARTOGRAPHY OF ENVIRONMENTAL INJUSTICE IN CHAPADA DO APODI, CEARÁ
Authors: Sousa Jackson Araujo de , Cavalcante Leandro Vieira
Published: October 2024

Chapada do Apodi, in the state of Ceará, is an expansion area for cotton agribusiness, producing environmental injustice against peasant communities. The study reveals the potential of social maps created through participatory mapping to expose environmental injustice caused by agribusiness. The research aims to demonstrate the environmental injustice triggered by the territorialization of agribusiness in the region through social cartography. A qualitative approach, participatory research, and social cartography are the core procedures for the investigation. The results show that it was possible to demonstrate increased deforestation, areas with a "smell of poison," the incorporation of former goat breeding areas, the deactivation of apiaries and bee deaths, the destruction of social technologies, and the possible contamination of storage tanks for household water. Furthermore, it is evident that environmental injustice can be revealed through participatory mapping processes based on social cartography.

Published: October 2024

The aviation industry is undergoing environmental scrutiny due to its significant
greenhouse gas emissions. Sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) are a vital solution
for reducing carbon emissions and pollutants, aligning with global efforts for
carbon-neutral aviation growth. SAFs can be produced via multiple production
routes from different feedstock, resulting in significantly different physical
and chemical fuel properties. Their suitability in a compression-ignition (CI)
aircraft engine was evaluated through test bench investigations at TU Wien -
Institute of Powertrain and Automotive Technology in partnership with Austro
Engine. ASTM D7566-certified fuels like Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO),
Fischer–Tropsch–Kerosene (FTK) or Alcohol to Jet (AtJ), but also an oxygen
containing biodiesel have been tested extensively. Gaseous emissions, soot
emissions, indication measurement data, efficiencies, and the like were acquired
and comprehensively analyzed for engine operation with different fuels and fuel
blends. Operation with all investigated fuels could be demonstrated successfully
at three representative operating points with the original engine setup. At
constant boundary conditions, neither maximum permitted in-cylinder pressure,
pressure gradient, or exhaust gas temperature were exceeded (nevertheless, an
adaption of the injection strategy is recommended). Ignition delay and
combustion duration—dependent on fuel properties—greatly influence the formation
of incomplete combustion products like HC and CO as well as NOx and
soot emissions. Especially the extremely low cetane number of AtJ leads to a
substantial increase in premixed combustion, which significantly influences
NOx and soot emissions, depending on operating conditions. A low
aromatic content (as found in HVO) is beneficial for reducing HC, CO, and soot
due to the absence of ring-like molecule structures. Also, a reduced adiabatic
flame temperature contributes to a decreased NOx concentration. The
high oxygen content of the biodiesel is known to be beneficial for reducing HC,
CO, and soot, while it contributes to increased NOx emissions. At
comparable air/fuel ratios within a specific operating point, all tested fuels
and fuel blends exhibit comparable CO2 emissions.

Introducción: Descripción del análisis epidemiológico de la enfermedad invasiva por Haemophilus influenzae (EIH) en España durante 2023 y su comparación respecto a años anteriores (2015-2022).
Método: Análisis epidemiológico descriptivo de los casos de EIH notificados a la Red Nacional de Vigilancia Epidemiológica (RENAVE) en 2023. Las variables analizadas fueron: sexo, grupo de edad, fecha de inicio de síntomas, comunidad o ciudad autónoma que notifica, defunción, manifestación clínica y serotipo.
Resultados: En 2023 se notificaron 674 casos de EIH (54% hombres) con una tasa de incidencia acumulada de 1,39 (número de casos por 100.000 habitantes). Las mayores tasas de incidencia en 2023 se observaron en menores de 1 año y en la población de 85 y más años. Durante este año se recuperó el patrón estacional típico de esta enfermedad, con un mayor número de casos de EIH en otoño e invierno. La manifestación clínica más frecuente independientemente de la edad fue la neumonía bacteriémica (46,1% de los casos). El 80,4 % de las defunciones ocurrieron en el grupo de 65 años o más. Se desconoce el serotipo de la mayoría de los casos de EIH notificados. 
Discusión: En 2023 se registró la mayor incidencia acumulada de los últimos 9 años. La mejora de la notificación de los datos de caracterización microbiológica es crucial para llevar a cabo la vigilancia de esta enfermedad y para la evaluación del programa de vacunación.

The Right to Bodily Integrity and Bodily Autonomy
Authors:   Macedonian Academy of Sciences and Arts, Kambovski Vlado

Respect for the natural and inviolable right to bodily integrity, understood as the right against significant, non-consensual interference with one’s body, faces new challenges, which are related to the dynamic nature of human rights and the social environment for their embodiment. The debate about this right takes on new dimensions with the extensive development of sciences about the nature of the human being, such as bioethics or neuroscience, which extend bodily integrity to physical, biological or neurological implants embedded in the body. Man is more than a socialized individual and an individualized “socius”, a biopsychological entity, so bodily integrity is necessarily connected to the state of his mental health as a condition of physical health and bodily integrity. This is the reason why criminal law is increasingly permeated by an attitude that calls for enhanced protection of mental integrity as a complementary element of the right to bodily integrity. In this context, the right to bodily integrity is a complex right, the content of which primarily includes the prohibition of inflicting physical or mental injuries, the prohibition of torture and inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, the prohibition of eugenic practices, in particular those aiming at the selection of persons the prohibition of slavery and forced labour, the prohibition on making the human body and its parts as such a source of financial gain, the prohibition of the reproductive cloning of human beings. But as a negative right, which implies all these prohibitions, it also suffers legal restrictions, such as forced castration in some legislations, physical injury in necessary defense, compulsory vaccination and other measures in case of a pandemic, etc. All limitations of this right require an indisputable justification, which often conflicts with hidden forms of its violation, especially when it comes to violations of mental integrity. As a positive right, the right to bodily integrity implies the right to bodily autonomy of the individual to make decisions about his body, and its interference means interfering with and limiting his free decisions. In modern criminal law, setting limits for bodily autonomy faces more complex questions, which have wider axiological implications: whether and to what extent acts of self-harm or destruction of personality, such as drug addiction, abortion should be banned, selling organs, selling one's own body, such as prostitution or hard manual labor, or to prohibit gender reassignment. Starting from the fact that the concept of the basic right to bodily integrity is not monolithic, answers to those questions should be sought starting from the higher postulate of human dignity, which is alien to the respect of this right as a property right.
VIOLATION OF THE BODILY INTEGRITY AS A VIOLATION OF THE FUNDAMENTAL HUMAN RIGHT

When discussing the right of ownership of our body, there is no need for elaboration since our instant answer will be that we are the sole owners of our bodies and nobody can tell us what to do with it, while we are alive and when we die. Therefore, every human being should have the right to protect and have a saying in regards to their own body. But in regards of the process of removing or donating an organ the question appears whether there is a breach of the bodily integrity? In regards to this question there is the physical and moral view of this issue which stands on the answer whether in this process there is a violation of the bodily integrity which if there is a violation then there is a violation of a fundamental human right.

Authors:   Bosnian-Herezgovinian-American Academy od Arts and Sciences, Novaković Filip
Published: October 2024

The case of taking the lives of Tyla Ryan and J. J. Vallow is a complex illustration of criminal behavior motivated by religious beliefs. This paper delves into the intricacies of the case, examining the background, circumstances and legal implications surrounding the tragic deaths of two children, focusing on the perpetrators’ alleged religious justifications for their actions and the court proceedings that followed. Through a comprehensive analysis of the relevant legal frameworks, including the doctrines of mens rea, religious freedom and insanity, this review clarifies the challenges and dilemmas faced by the criminal justice system in adjudicating cases involving (aggravated) religious murder. In addition, this paper highlights the wider social implications of such crimes, emphasizing the imperative of legal and social mechanisms to address religious extremism and protect the basic rights and safety of individuals, especially vulnerable children. The phenomenon of murder motivated by religious beliefs represents a disturbing intersection of religion, ideology and criminal behavior. The case of the murders of Tyler Ryan and J. J. Vallow attracted widespread public attention for the gruesome display of religious fanaticism that culminated in the tragic loss of life. Against the backdrop of an ardent religious movement, the victims, aged 17 and 7 respectively, fell victim to the heinous acts of individuals who allegedly acted in accordance with their religious beliefs. This paper tries to break down the multiple layers of the case, revealing the legal, psychological and social dimensions underlying the killings for religious reasons.
