Causes of Health Providers’ Malpractices in Records Referred to Forensic Medicine Organization in Yazd
Authors: Hosseini Baghdadabad Fatemehalsadat , Montazeralfaraj Razieh , Zarezadeh Mohammad , Keyghobady Naeimeh
Published: June 2023

Background: Despite technical advances in medical diagnosis and treatment, the malpractice of health providers has increased, which can lead to a decrease in people's trust. Medical malpractice means unintentional failure to perform a task, which includes misdiagnosis, treatment plan error, or disease management error. This study was conducted in 2018 to investigate the causes of health providers’ malpractices in cases referred to Forensic Medicine Organization in Yazd.
Methods: This was a cross-sectional and applied study conducted in 2019 in Yazd province. The research population included all the cases of complaints about health providers’ malpractices in cases referred to Forensic Medicine Commission of Yazd Province in 2108. Data were collected by a two-part checklist and were analyzed by SPSS 16 software.
Results: Out of 96 cases examined in 2018, 53 of the plaintiffs were men, and 43 of them were women. Most of them were in the age group of 20-40, and the most of complaints were related to government hospitals. Regarding the cause of malpractice, the highest frequency was related to carelessness, non-compliance with government regulations, and a combination of several factors, negligence and lack of proficiency, respectively. Moreover, obstetricians and gynecologists (18.8 %), surgery (13.5 %), and anesthesia (10.4 %) reported the highest number of malpractice cases. Only 58.3% of the cases were proved.
Conclusion: Identifying the root causes of medical malpractice, changing individual approach to systemic approach in dealing with error factors, increasing the awareness of the treatment staff of the rules and consequences of malpractice, and notifying health care providers of guidelines through safety committees can reduce malpractice of treatment staff, and consequently, reduce complaints from them.

Cette étude a examiné le lien entre la justice procédurale perçue et l'engagement organisationnel des enseignants de l'Université de Dschang dans l'ouest du Cameroun. Elle était guidée par la théorie de l'échange social de Blau (1964). A l'aide d'un questionnaire, des données ont été recueillies auprès de cent cinq (105) enseignants de différentes facultés de l'Université de Dschang. Cependant, quatre-vingt-onze (91) questionnaires ont été utilisés dans l'analyse, en raison de chiffres incomplets et manquants dans d'autres questionnaires. La fiabilité du questionnaire a été testée à l'aide de la technique Alpha de Crombach avec des coefficients de 0,90 et 0,80 respectivement pour la justice procédurale et l'engagement organisationnel. Le traitement statistique a été effectué à l'aide du logiciel statistique SPSS version 23. Des analyses descriptives et des tests de corrélations ont été effectués.r= 0,378 ; p < .01). Il n'y a pas de lien significatif entre la justice procédurale et l'engagement normatif ( r= .161 ; p> .05). Cependant, l'existence d'un lien négatif et significatif a été établie entre la perception de la justice procédurale et l'engagement calculé ( r= .-234 ; p< .05). Il a été recommandé que les institutions, les policiers et les employés s'assurent que les applications des procédures de distribution des récompenses soient les mêmes pour tous les employés de l'organisation afin de stimuler leur engagement organisationnel.

ТЕОРЕТИЧНІ ЗАСАДИ УПРАВЛІННЯ ЕКОНОМІЧНОЮ БЕЗПЕКОЮ ПІДПРИЄМСТВ У ПЕРІОД ГЛОБАЛЬНОЇ ЕКОНОМІЧНОЇ ТРАНСФОРМАЦІЙ
Authors: Аванесова Н. , Сергієнко Ю.
Published: June 2023

В умовах глобального господарювання підприємство, як відкрита система, функціонує у складному зовнішньому середовищі, що характеризується нестабільністю та постійною динамікою. Таке середовище змушує керівництво швидко адаптуватися до нових умов, потребує знання законів розвитку та пошуку шляхів виживання в ринковій економіці, врахування чинників невизначеності та нестійкості. У глобальній економіці підприємства функціонують в умовах невизначеності та непередбачуваності, через що виникають різні небезпечні явища: спад виробництва, недобросовісна конкуренція, шахрайство, корупція, рейдерство, недосконале комерційне законодавство, криміналізація суспільства, влади та бізнесу. Все це вимагає формування системи економічної безпеки суб’єктів господарювання. Отже, що управління економічною безпекою підприємства являє собою реалізацію управлінських рішень і має забезпечити такий рівень функціонування підприємства, за якого воно може своєчасно реагувати на зовнішні та внутрішні чинники, що несуть загрозу економічній діяльності, а також рівень, який не обмежує прогресивний стабільний розвиток підприємства.
УПРАВЛІННЯ РИЗИКАМИ. ТЕОРЕТИЧНИЙ АСПЕКТ
Authors: Воловельська І. В. , Данкова В. , Мурза Я. В. , Юращук Л. Б.
Published: June 2023

Будь-який вид діяльності, особливо в сфері економіки і підприємництва, пов'язаний з вибором і прийняттям рішень щодо подальшої поведінки в умовах невизначеності. Причому джерела невизначеності можуть бути різні: нестабільність економічної, політичної, соціальної ситуації; неможливість спрогнозувати поведінку партнерів, а так само інші фактори, які не піддаються визначенню. Основна проблема, що виникає в процесі прийняття рішення, полягає в тому, що обов'язково є випадкові процеси, що виникають через вплив негативно або позитивно налаштованих факторів зовнішнього і внутрішнього середовища. Фактор ризику є обов'язковим атрибутом сучасної економічної ситуації. Відбувається це тому, що ринкові відносини передбачають економічну свободу суб'єктів господарської діяльності, а також через постійні трансформаційні процеси, що відбуваються в сучасному світі. Через це і виникає недостатня забезпеченість інформацією при прийнятті рішення по проблемній ситуації або невизначеність. Для того, щоб підприємство розвивалося успішно, йому необхідно приймати рішення так, щоб негативний вплив зовнішнього середовища було мінімальним. Щоб знизити негативний вплив факторів зовнішнього середовища, яке характеризується невизначеністю і агресивною конкуренцією, що не дає з великою часткою ймовірності спрогнозувати майбутнє, підприємству необхідно створити таку систему безпеки, яка б беручи до уваги реальний стан, змогла б нейтралізувати наслідки.
The Application of Artificial Intelligence Models in Commercial Banks − Opportunities and Threats
Authors: Chwila Adam
Published: June 2023

One of the main sectors that makes heavy use of the development of advanced computational methods is the banking sector. The goals of our research are as follows: 1) to compare scientific and regulatory approaches to defining artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), 2) to propose AI and ML definitions for regulatory purposes that allow us to clearly state if a given method is AI/ML or not, 3) to compare the complex quantitative methods applied in banking in terms of complexity and interpretability in order to provide a clear classification of methods to the interested parties (practitioners and management), 4) to propose a possible approach towards the further development of quantitative methods in the areas of required strict interpretability. Our literature review focuses on the definitions of AI/ML applied by scientists and regulators, as well as the proposals of application of complex quantitative solutions in different banking domains. We propose practical definitions of AI and ML based on the current state of the art and requirements of clarity in the banking industry (a very limited risk appetite regarding regulations non‑compliance) and compare quantitative methods applied in different banking domains. For regulatory purposes, we propose general and inclusive definitions of AI and ML which allow for a clear classification of specific methods. In the case of strict requirements towards the interpretability of applied methods, we propose a gradual and controlled increase in the complexity of existing solutions. Therefore, we propose the differentiation of quantitative methods in terms of interpretability and complexity. We also think that the definitions of AI/ML in further regulations should make it possible to clearly say whether particular approaches are AI/ML. Our research is directed to policymakers, practitioners, and executives related to the banking sector.
Potential of ethanol and butanol in reducing deposits of DISI engine injectors
Authors: Pielecha Ireneusz , Szwajca Filip , Stępień Zbigniew
Published: June 2023

The operation of conventional (hydrocarbon) fuels causes certain effects in the internal combustion engine. Despite the satisfactory efficiency of internal combustion engines, their fuel systems, particularly the injectors, are subject to constant fouling. The article analyzes the possibility of reducing the deposit of high-pressure gasoline injectors using the alcohol addition of ethanol and butanol. The study was conducted under the engine and non-engine conditions. Fuel injection timing was analyzed when fueling with different mixtures, and non-engine analyses were conducted to determine changes affecting the injectors. The results indicate the possibility of reducing injector hole coking using ethanol and butanol as a 20% additive to the base fuel.
Understanding practice placements where students falter and fail
Authors: Flynn Susan
Published: June 2023

This paper offers a theoretical exposition of critical realism for social work practice education. The specific focus is on faltering students at the cusp of placement failure, and the urgent supportive role of practice educators and tutors in promoting learner’s reflective capacity as active agents in their learning. A key premise of the paper is that eliminating the oftentimes contested space between what key parties think is happening, and what is actually manifest in reality, is an imperative that can be supported by critical realism. Here critical realist scholars argue that one’s social reality is manifest in proximity to both an observable and socially constructed world, alongside an actual real world, with the former sometimes at odds with the latter. In concluding, the case is restated for critical realism as a theoretical tool for practice education with students who falter and fail.

Del aula del Instituto al moderno laboratorio universitario. La evolución del espacio para la enseñanza de la Biología en la Universidad de Murcia (1915-1936)
Authors: Marín Murcia José Pedro
Published: June 2023

La falta de espacio para la joven Universidad de Murcia creada en 1915 se suplió con las aulas, gabinetes y laboratorios con los que contaba el Instituto General y Técnico de Murcia. Conforme fue creciendola institución en alumnos y materias el espacio fue quedando insuficiente mudándose la Universidad al edificio de la antigua Escuela Graduada del Carmen. Allí se instalará provisoriamente la Cátedra de Mineralogía y Botánica de José Loustau con dos espacios diferenciados; por un lado, el aula para las clasesteóricas y por otro el de las clases prácticas de laboratorio. El proceso de acomodo en un edificio propio y con espacio suficiente culminará en 1934 durante la II República con el edificio de la Merced, en pleno centro de Murcia.
En este trabajo nos centraremos en analizar la sinergia que se establece entre la segunda enseñanza y la superior, así como en las cuestiones sociales y políticas que van a marcar el devenir de la joven universidady el desarrollo de espacios para la enseñanza e investigación de la moderna Biología. De especial importancia será la cuestión de la influencia de la Universidad Central y de sus profesores en la formación de Loustau, lacuestión de la independencia universitaria y el programa de extensión cultural y científica durante el rectorado de Loustau.

Strategies for the Promotion of Primary Health Care Research in Portugal: A Qualitative Study
Authors: Morgado Maria Beatriz , Rodrigues Vera , Carmona Ramos Raquel , Rente Ana , Nicola Paulo , Gil Conde Margarida
Published: June 2023

Introduction: There are several barriers discouraging clinicians from undertaking research, including insufficient funding, lack of time, organizational issues and lack of support. The strengthening of research capacity is perceived from three levels: characteristics of the researcher, the environment, and organizational issues. To date, Portugal is lacking studies on this subject. The aim of this study was to identify the best practices to promote research in Portuguese Primary Health Care.Methods: We conducted a qualitative study using semi-structured interviews with family doctors with broadly recognized research work and other stakeholders. We selected a sample by convenience and snowball sampling. From a total of 14 doctors invited by email, 12 responded positively, and we subsequently included two other stakeholders. We conducted the interviews in digital or face-to-face formats. Two team members handled the coding of interviews independently. We kept all recordings and transcripts confidential, only accessible to researchers.Results: We identified 16 strategies: 1) increasing institutional support; 2) creating support structures; 3) redefining the residency program; 4) investing in research training; 5) redefining curriculum evaluation; 6) establishing dedicated time for research; 7) increasing funding; 8) improving access to research data; 9) being a research driver; 10) establishing a research culture; 11) working in collaboration; 12) creating formally organized research groups; 13) creating autonomous research centers; 14) improving the definition of the research subjects and study designs; 15) reviewing procedures for ethics’ committees; and 16) reviewing the current selection of articles for publication.Conclusion: Overall, a greater proportion of interviewees identified the following as the most relevant strategies for research promotion: institutional support, including technical and scientific support from public institutions, private entities and academic centers; the reorganization of working hours with protected time for research; increased funding directed towards research and breaking isolation in research, promoting teamwork with clinicians within the same area or from different professional backgrounds.
POST-BELGESEL FOTOĞRAFTA GERÇEKLİK TARTIŞMALARI VE SPEKÜLATİF BELGESEL FOTOĞRAF
Authors: DAYI Handan
Published: June 2023

Fotoğraf doğası gereği gerçeklik kavramıyla hep yakın ilişki içerisinde olmuş, özellikle belgesel fotoğraf

gerçekliğin yansıması olarak görülmüştür. Ancak post-modern eleştirmenler belgesel fotoğrafın gerçeklikle

kurduğu ilişkiye eleştiriler getirmişlerdir. Makale, bu eleştirilerin yanı sıra, gerçeklik kavramının çağdaş

felsefedeki değişimlerine de odaklanmaktadır. Nesne Yönelimli Ontoloji ve Spekülatif Gerçekçilik olarak

adlandırılan bu yeni felsefi düşünceler, insanı merkeze almayan “gerçekçi” bir tutumun mümkün olduğunu

söylemektedir. Özellikle Graham Harman’ın Nesne Yönelimli Ontolojide sanat üzerinden yaptığı açıklamaların,

belgesel fotoğraf alanındaki gerçeklik tartışmalarına da yeni açılımlar sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir.

Max Pinckers’ın kurduğu, Spekülatif Belgesel Okulu, Harman’ın nesne yönelimli felsefesindeki gerçeklik

tartışmalarına benzer bir vurgu yapar. Post belgesel içerisinde sınıflandırılan spekülatif belgesel fotoğrafın,

belgesel ve kurgunun hibrit ilişkisini vurgulayan manifestolarıyla belgesel fotoğrafta yeni tartışmalar yaratacağı

düşünülmektedir. Bu makalede Spekülatif Realizm ve Nesne Yönelimli Ontoloji felsefesine değinilecek,

spekülatif belgesel fotoğrafın tanımı, önemi aktarılacak ve yeni felsefelere olan yakınlığı da araştırılacaktır.
Crosstalk of Airway Smooth Muscle and Epithelial Cells in Chronic Lung Diseases
Authors: Abohalaka Reshed
Published: June 2023

Chronic pulmonary diseases such as asthma, COPD, and Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis are significant causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Currently, there is no radical treatment for many chronic pulmonary diseases, and the treatment options focus on relieving the symptoms and improving lung function. Therefore, efficient therapeutic agents are highly needed. Bronchial epithelial cells and airway smooth muscle cells and their crosstalk play a significant role in the pathogenesis of these diseases. Thus, targeting the interactions of these two cell types could open the door to a new generation of effective therapeutic options. However, the studies on how these two cell types interact and how their crosstalk adds up to respiratory diseases are not well established. With the rise of modern research tools and technology, such as lab-on-chip, organoids, co-culture techniques, and advanced immunofluorescence imaging, a substantial degree of evidence about these cell interactions emerged. Hence, this contribution aims to summarize the growing evidence of bronchial epithelial cells and airway smooth muscle cells crosstalk under normal and pathophysiological conditions. The review first deliberates the effects of both healthy and stressed epithelial cells on airway smooth muscle cells, taking into account three themes; contraction, migration, and proliferation. Then, it discusses the impact of airway smooth muscle cells on the epithelium in inflammatory settings. Later, it examines the role of airway smooth muscle cells in the early development of bronchial epithelial cells and their recovery after injury.

Prime motivation of this approach is to improve the skillset of the team members through software governance policies and increase the overall success rate of the software projects. The scope of skill development is across the pillars of governance, such as structure, people, and information. Primary focus of this paper is on the skillset development of the project team members through educational policies in software governance. As part of the governance process, educational policies are defined for the skillset development of project team members. The JIRA dataset was used to determine the skillset development of the team members. Machine learning techniques, such as J48, Random Forest, Decision Table, Logistics, and Naïve Bayes, were used in the JIRA dataset. These machine learning techniques were processed using WEKA open-source software. Based on these results, it was concluded that the J48 algorithm can be applied to multiple projects/programs to monitor and track the skill development process. Machine learning model such as J48 is required to use this model at an organizational level. The skillset development of project team members should be aligned with IT governance and educational policies. Overall upskilling and reskilling strategies are provided to demonstrate the impact of skillset development through software governance.

In this contribution a new configuration of a DC-DC Boost and Buck-Boost converters is proposed to track sinusoidal signals exactly, with zero tracking error. The stage is conformed by two DC-DC converters connected to the same load, this is, they are not connected in cascade. To track exactly the sinusoidal reference the control scheme is base on the indirect control algorithm and the harmonic balance method. The proposed algorithm considers a second control input with the end of cancel out the second harmonic, this second harmonic is produced by the non linearity of the model and must be cancelled since there must be a single frequency in the output. The result is such that the converters can track sinusoidal signals with exactly zero error, some numerical results are presented to corroborate the proposal.

Background : Our objectives were to investigate the incidence of elevated methemoglobin level among COVID-19 patients at intensive care unit. The correlation of methaemoglobinemia with mortality and some haematological parameters was also tested. Methods: The diagosis of coronavirus -19 infection was confirmed by RT-PCR. The quantitative method for determination of methemoglobin was it’s cyanide derivative by spectrophotometry. The reference range was less than 2 percent. Results: There were altogether 46 patients (11 male, 35 female) included. Their median age value was 70 y. ( 29 – 89). The methemoglobin median value was 4,3%. 15 of 46 patients died. The methemoglobin median value of departed patients was 8 % , and 2,5% was among survivors. ( P= 0,001) 19 patients were blood transfused. Their methemoglobin median was 11 % , otherwise the non transfused patients presented 2,7 % methemoglobin median. ( p= 0,001). We performed two binary logistic regression calculation, in order to judge the elevated methemoglobin level as an independent risk factor for the mortality. The predictor of methaemoglobin was 0,062 the constant -1,266 the odds ratio 1,06. The other binary logistic regression tested the fact of transfusion for the mortality. Predictor of transfusion 1,1474, constant -1,2527 odds ratio 3,15 There was no significant correlation between methemoglobin and CRP level. Discussion: The methemoglobin is not able to transport oxygen. It’s association with mortality is discussed by some papers.There are several hypothesis in the literature to explain it’s occurrence in COVID-19. The role of coronavirus proteins as oxydative agents was mentioned. The importance of enzyme defect is emphasized. The impact of reactive oxygen free radicals in inflammation is also probable. Some papers mentioned applying local anesthetics and azythromycin as a risk. The role of transfusion is obscure, because the methemoglobin can be elevated in blood conserves during storage. Conclusion: Testing the methemoglobin seems to be important, but the pathomechanism needs further research.. The traceability and standardization of different measurement methods at intensive care units is the key for defining it’s pathogenetic role.

Published: June 2023

Yaw misalignment can make a wake steer, which is an effective method to increase the power of wind farms, but it also increases the fatigue load of the turbines. In this paper, the method of combining yaw misalignment and pitch control (CYMP) is proposed to investigate the potential to mitigate wake interference, the wind velocity distribution and turbulence distribution in the wake, as well as the power and load changes of the wind turbine are studied, focusing on power in-crement and fatigue damage reduction. Although some studies have found that the method of CYMP are beneficial to increase power generation and reduce fatigue loads, there are no papers that have made a detailed analysis of the effects of wake turbulence, wind speed distribution, power, especially fatigue damage under this control. Simulation tool FAST.Farm is used to model and analyze wind farms, obtain the variation details of wake and provide simulation data for calculating power and fatigue load. The pitch control brings bias to the CYMP optimization results was neglected, the case studies show that the method of CYMP can reduce the fatigue load by 10.29% and increase the total power by 1.7% compared with only wake steering. The Model Predictive Control collaborative method based on CYMP is proposed, which can increase power by more than 2% and reduce thrust by more than 4% under 10m/s turbulent wind.

Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer (P. ginseng), has been widely used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). It contains a number of chemical components and possesses a variety of pharmacological activities. Alzheimer's disease (AD) is neurodegenerative disease that creates a huge burden on the lives and health of individuals. In recent years, studies have indicated that the chemical components of P. ginseng, especially ginsenosides, play a pronounced positive role in the prevention and treatment of neurological diseases. This review aimed to summarize currently studies on chemical components and the mechanisms action in AD intervention treatment of P. ginseng, especially ginsenosides. In this review, the components of P. ginseng and their respective active effects were first introduced. Then the key molecular mechanisms and signaling pathways of P. ginseng were introduced, and its different active ingredients in the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease-related pathogenesis were also summarized from the pathogenesis of AD Aβ generation and aggregation, hyperphosphorylation of tau protein，oxidant stress，neuroinflammation，mitochondrial damage，disorder of neurotransmitter and gut microbiota. Signaling pathway networks related to the action of ginseng active ingredients was constructed, which could serve as a therapeutic target for Alzheimer's disease. In addition to a detailed report on P. ginseng in improving Alzheimer's disease-related pathogenesis, the application of the current technology, spatial metabonomics in AD therapeutics and diagnostics were later discussed. Spatial metabonomics could be applied to investigate the multi-target intervention of P. ginseng on Alzheimer's disease. Research perspectives for the study of P. ginseng in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease were provided for further studies.

Patients receiving hemodialysis are at risk of vascular access infections (VAIs) and particularly vulnerable to the opportunistic pathogen Staphylococcus aureus. Hemodialysis patients were also at increased risk of infection during the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, this study determined the change in the molecular and antibiotic resistance profiles of S. aureus isolates from VAIs during the pandemic compared with before. 102 S. aureus isolates were collected from VAIs between November 2013 and December 2021. Before the pandemic, 69 isolates were collected, 58%, 39.1%, and 2.9% from arteriovenous grafts (AVGs), tunneled cuffed catheters (TCCs), and arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs), respectively. The prevalence of AVG and TCC isolates changed to 39.4% and 60.6%, respectively, of 33 isolates during the pandemic. Sequence type (ST)59 was the predominant clone in TCC-methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and AVG-MRSA before the pandemic, whereas the predominant clone was ST8 in AVG-MRSA during the pandemic. ST59 carrying the ermB gene was resistant to clindamycin and erythromycin. By contrast, ST8 carrying the msrA gene was exclusively resistant to erythromycin. The ST distribution for different VAIs changed from before to during the pandemic. The change in antibiotic resistance rate for different VAIs was closely related to the distribution of specific STs.

Published: June 2023

Green supply chain management (GSCM) is fundamentally growing as a key component of sustainability, owing to its ability to improve supply chain competitiveness and performance within firms. The body of literature on GSCM within the manufacturing sector in developing countries such as South Africa is still limited. The study examined the relationships between GSCM practices, dynamic capabilities, and supply chain performance in the South African manufacturing sector. The study was quantitative, involving a sample of 402 supply chain professionals drawn from the manufacturing sector across the four provinces of the country. Hypotheses were tested using structural equation modelling based on the SMART PLS technique. Eco-design Green distribution and green training impacted positively on dynamic capabilities, the latter of which in turn is linked to improved agility, reliability, and reduced supply chain costs. The study validates the importance of GSCM as a driver of dynamic capabilities and performance in manufacturing environments within developing countries such as South Africa.

Published: June 2023

Iron-containing nickel sulfides, selenides, and sulfoselenides were synthesized via a simple two-step hydrothermal reaction (temperature 160 °C) for their application as electrocatalysts in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in an alkaline solution (1 mol L–1 KOH). The study demonstrated that iron-containing nickel cobalt sulfides and selenides exhibit superior OER performance with lower overpotentials compared to iron-free nickel cobalt sulfide and selenide, which highlights the significant role of iron in enhancing OER nickel cobalt electrocatalysts: Fe0.1Ni1.4Co2.9(S0.87O0.13)4, η50 = 318 mV; Fe0.2Ni1.5Co2.8(S0.9O0.1)4, η50 = 310 mV; Fe0.3Ni1.2Co2.5(S0.9O0.1)4, η50 = 294 mV; Fe0.6Ni1.2Co2.5(S0.83O0.17)4, η50 = 294 mV, Fe0.4Ni0.7Co1.6(Se0.81O0.19)4, η50 = 306 mV compared to Ni1.0Co2.1(S0.9O0.1)4, η50 = 346 mV and Ni0.7Co1.4(Se0.85O0.15)4, η50 = 355 mV (all values at current densities η50 of 50 mA cm–2). Furthermore, the iron-containing nickel cobalt sulfoselenide Fe0.5Ni1.0Co2.0(S0.57Se0.25O0.18)4 displayed exceptional OER performance with η50 = 277 mV, surpassing the benchmark RuO2 electrode with η50 = 299 mV. The superior performance of the sulfoselenide was attributed to its low charge transfer resistance (Rct) of 0.8 Ω at 1.5 V vs. the reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE). Moreover, the sulfoselenide demonstrated remarkable stability, with only a minimal increase in overpotential (η50) from 277 mV to 279 mV after a 20 h chronopotentiometry test. These findings suggest that trimetallic iron, nickel and cobalt sulfide, selenide and especially sulfoselenide materials hold promise as high-performance, cost-effective, and durable electrocatalysts for sustainable OER reactions. This study provides a valuable approach for the development of efficient electrocatalytic materials, contributing to the advancement of renewable energy technologies.
Valorisation of Madagascar’s Wildlife Trade and Wildlife Tourism; What are the Conservation Benefits?
Authors: Carpenter Angus I. , Andreone Franco
Published: June 2023

Wildlife tourism and wildlife trade may appear juxtaposed, but are two, potentially aligning, income generators that could benefit conservation in developing countries. Utilising data sets collated from Madagascar’s Ministère du Tourisme and CITES respectively for the period 2007 to 2018, this study estimated levels of income from wildlife tourism and wildlife trade for Madagascar. Between 2007-2018, tourism reported yearly incomes ranging from a low of US $1.4 million up to a high of US $15.7 million. However, it was unclear what percentage of this figure flowed to benefit local communities. Alternatively, using reported networks for the live wildlife trade, the estimated economic value reaching collectors and/or intermediaries on Madagascar was US $72,299.80 for the period 2007 to 2018. Both revenue generators operated within different geographical areas, with tourism opportunities presenting themselves to communities adjacent NPs, while wildlife trade networks were not restricted to NPs and operated sporadically across Madagascar. Hence, the economic benefits reached different Malagasy participants across the country. The management of both activities needs great care to ensure that environmental impacts and sustainability are core measures on any such activities. Whilst this study shines light on economic values and novel perspectives regarding these two trade types, it also highlighted knowledge gaps. Thus, indicating where much greater research attentions was required to allow better understanding of the specific benefits and risks from engaging with both trade types for local Malagasy people and their environments.
