Las sociedades profesionales
Authors: Bas Soria Javier
Published: July 2023

La aprobación de una Ley de Sociedades Profesionales ha pretendido dotar de un marco jurídico estable al incipiente fenómeno de creación de sociedades para el desarrollo de actividades profesionales.
A pesar de la relevancia del fenómeno en el ámbito tributario, la norma se presenta con una escasa disposición transitoria en materia tributaria, en la que únicamente se atiende a la modalidad de operaciones societarias del Impuesto sobre Transmisiones Patrimoniales y Actos Jurídicos Documentados (en adelante, ITP y AJD).
Es evidente que aunque la ausencia de normas específicas no suponga la creación de un nuevo régimen especial, la aplicación de las normas generales a un marco concreto y específico como son las sociedades profesionales plantea no pocos problemas. En el presente artículo se trata de realizar una aproximación a algunas de las principales cuestiones que plantea la sociedad profesional desde el punto de vista fiscal, como la relevancia de las distintas formas jurídicas elegibles en cuanto a las obligaciones fiscales dimanantes; las relaciones de los socios profesionales por la prestación de servicios profesionales a través de las sociedades; o las consecuencias tributarias de hechos tan habituales como el reparto de beneficios o la disolución de la sociedad, desde el particular desarrollo de estas instituciones en el seno de la sociedad profesional.

El presente trabajo efectúa un estudio de la modificación del artículo 87.3 de la Ley del Impuesto sobre Sociedades por la Ley 24/2001.
Efectuamos un recorrido por los antecedentes de la reforma y por los diversos artículos que han analizado el significado de esta modificación. Comentamos los que se han pronunciado a favor de la modificación y los contrastamos con las posiciones que han considerado errónea la misma. Elaboramos unos cuadros comparativos donde reflejamos las posiciones del grupo ante las dos situaciones de declaración: la consolidada y la individual por cada miembro del grupo, al objeto de analizar las distorsiones que se producen.
Significamos el paralelismo existente entre las provisiones por depreciación de inversiones financieras a nivel individual con las Reservas en Sociedades Consolidadas a nivel consolidado, concluyendo que ambas cuentas realizan el mismo trabajo en los dos estadios diferentes: las Cuentas Anuales Individuales y las Cuentas Anuales Consolidadas.
Un nuevo supuesto de responsabilidad tributaria para combatir el fraude del IVA
Authors: Álvarez Barbeito Pilar
Published: July 2023

Este trabajo ha obtenido el 1.er Premio Estudios Financieros 2007 en la Modalidad de TRIBUTACIÓN.
En el presente estudio se aborda el análisis de una cuestión que, sin duda, constituye una de las novedades más relevantes de cuantas modificaciones normativas se han introducido en nuestro sistema tributario de la mano de la Ley 36/2006, de 29 de noviembre, de Medidas para la Prevención del Fraude Fiscal. Nos referimos concretamente al establecimiento de un nuevo supuesto de responsabilidad subsidiaria regulado en el apartado cinco del artículo 87 de la Ley del Impuesto sobre el Valor Añadido, calificación aplicable a quienes adquieran mercancías procedentes de tramas organizadas para defraudar dicho tributo, las cuales, respondiendo a denominaciones diversas tales como la de «fraude carrusel», ocasionan importantes perjuicios tanto a la Hacienda Pública como a aquellos operadores económicos que actúan legalmente en el mismo sector del mercado en el que se desarrolla el fraude.
Tras una breve exposición de las principales causas que han podido provocar la proliferación de este tipo de tramas, especialmente relacionadas con el régimen fiscal aplicable actualmente a las operaciones intracomunitarias de bienes, en este estudio se realiza un exhaustivo examen del artículo 87.Cinco de la Ley del IVA. Con ese objetivo se plantean, en primer lugar, las cuestiones más relevantes que se desprenden de dicho precepto desde el punto de vista de nuestro derecho interno para, a continuación, analizar su grado de compatibilidad con las exigencias del Derecho Comunitario. El estudio de ambos extremos conduce a una serie de conclusiones que obligan a poner en tela de juicio algunos de los principales aspectos de la regulación del nuevo supuesto de responsabilidad subsidiaria, cuya aplicación práctica se verá previsiblemente afectada por problemas de difícil solución. Esta situación nos ha conducido a examinar, en último lugar, las medidas que otros países han arbitrado para luchar contra las tramas de fraude, de entre las cuales, figuras como la denominada «inversión del sujeto pasivo» consideramos que constituyen alternativas susceptibles de ser valoradas en tanto no se implante el régimen definitivo de las operaciones intracomunitarias en el IVA.

What CloudSat cannot see: liquid water content profiles inferred from MODIS and CALIOP observations
Authors: Schulte Richard M. , Lebsock Matthew D. , Haynes John M.
Published: July 2023

Abstract. Single-layer nonprecipitating warm clouds are integral to
Earth's climate, and accurate estimates of cloud liquid water content for
these clouds are critical for constraining cloud models and understanding
climate feedbacks. As the only cloud-sensitive radar currently in space,
CloudSat provides very important cloud-profiling capabilities. However, a
significant fraction of clouds is missed by CloudSat because they are
either too thin or too close to the Earth's surface. We find that the
CloudSat Radar-Visible Optical Depth Cloud Water Content Product, 2B-CWC-RVOD, misses about 73 % of nonprecipitating liquid
cloudy pixels and about 63 % of total nonprecipitating liquid cloud
water content compared to coincident Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) observations. Those percentages
increase to 84 % and 69 %, respectively, if MODIS “partly cloudy”
pixels are included. We develop a method, based on adiabatic parcel theory
but modified to account for the fact that observed clouds are often
subadiabatic, to estimate profiles of cloud liquid water content based on
MODIS observations of cloud-top effective radius and cloud optical depth
combined with lidar observations of cloud-top height. We find that, for
cloudy pixels that are detected by CloudSat, the resulting subadiabatic
profiles of cloud water are similar to what is retrieved from CloudSat. For
cloudy pixels that are not detected by CloudSat, the subadiabatic profiles
can be used to supplement the CloudSat profiles, recovering much of the
missing cloud water and generating realistic-looking merged profiles of
cloud water. Adding this missing cloud water to the CWC-RVOD product
increases the mean cloud liquid water path by 228 % for single-layer
nonprecipitating warm clouds. This method will be included in a subsequent
reprocessing of the 2B-CWC-RVOD algorithm.
Improved RepVGG Ground-Based Cloud Image Classification with Attention Convolution

Published: July 2023

Abstract. Clouds greatly impact the earth's radiation prediction, hydrological cycle, and climate change. Accurate automatic recognition of cloud shape based on ground-based cloud image is helpful to analyze solar irradiance, water vapor content, and atmospheric motion, and then predict photovoltaic power, weather trends, and severe weather changes. However, the appearance of clouds is changeable and diverse, and its classification is still challenging. In recent years, convolution neural network(CNN) has made great achievements in ground-based cloud image classification. However, traditional CNN has a poor ability to associate long-distance clouds, so extracting the global features of cloud images is difficult. Therefore, a ground-based cloud image classification method based on improved convolution neural network RepVGG and attention mechanism is proposed in this paper. Firstly, the proposed method increases the RepVGG residual branch and obtains more local detail features of cloud images through small convolution kernels. Secondly, an improved channel attention module is embedded after the residual branch fusion, which can effectively extract the global features of the cloud images. Finally, the linear classifier is used to classify the ground cloud images. In addition, the warm-up method is introduced to optimize the learning rate in the training stage of the proposed method, and it is lightweight in the inference stage, which can avoid over-fitting and accelerate the convergence speed of the model. The proposed method in this paper is evaluated on MGCD and GRSCD ground-based cloud image datasets, and the experimental results show that the accuracy of this method reaches 98.15 % and 98.07 %, respectively, which exceeds other most advanced methods, and proves that CNN still has room for improvement in ground-based cloud image classification task.
Interannual variability of summertime formaldehyde (HCHO) vertical column density and its main drivers in northern high latitudes
Authors: Zhao Tianlang , Mao Jingqiu , Ayazpour Zolal , González Abad Gonzalo , Nowlan Caroline , Zheng Yiqi
Published: July 2023

Abstract. The northern high latitudes (50–90° N, mostly including boreal forest and tundra ecosystem) has been undergoing rapid climate and ecological changes over recent decades, leading to significant variations in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emissions from biogenic and biomass burning sources. HCHO, a widely used indicator of VOC emission, exhibits high climate sensitivity. However, the interannual variability of HCHO and its main drivers over the region remain unclear. In this study, we use the GEOS-Chem chemical transport model and satellite retrievals from Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) and Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS) to examine HCHO vertical column density (VCD) interannual variations in summertime of 2005–2019. Our results show that wildfires heavily influence interannual variability of HCHO VCD over Siberia, Alaska, and North Canada, while biogenic emissions and background methane oxidation are the predominant drivers of HCHO interannual variability over East Europe. Solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) from Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) provides additional evaluation for HCHO interannual variability from biogenic emission, showing potential of constraining biogenic emission in northern high latitudes.
A Global Gridded Dataset for Cloud Vertical Structure from Combined CloudSat and CALIPSO Observations
Authors: Bertrand Leah , Kay Jennifer E. , Haynes John , de Boer Gijs
Published: July 2023

Abstract. The vertical structure of clouds has a profound effect on the global energy budget, the global circulation, and the atmospheric hydrological cycle. The CloudSat and Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) missions have taken complementary, colocated observations of cloud vertical structure for over a decade. However, no globally-gridded dataset is available to the public for the full length of this unique combined data record. Here we present the 3S-GEOPROF-COMB product, a globally-gridded (level 3S) community data product summarizing geometrical profiles (-GEOPROF) of hydrometeor occurrence from combined (-COMB) CloudSat and CALIPSO data. Our product is calculated from the latest release (R05) of per-orbit (level 2) combined cloud mask profiles. We process a set of cloud cover, vertical cloud fraction, and sampling variables at 2.5, 5, and 10 degree spatial resolution and monthly and seasonal temporal resolution. We address the 2011 reduction in CloudSat data collection with Daylight-Only Operations (DO-Op) mode by subsampling pre-2011 data to mimic DO-Op collection patterns, thereby allowing users to evaluate the impact of the reduced sampling on their analyses. We evaluate our data product against CloudSat-only and CALIPSO-only global-gridded data products as well as a surface-based dataset, underscoring the added value of the combined product. Interest in the product is anticipated for the study of cloud processes, cloud-climate interactions, and as a candidate baseline climate data record for comparison to follow-up satellite missions, among other uses.
Modeling of non-structural carbohydrate dynamics by the spatially explicit individual-based dynamic global vegetation model SEIB-DGVM (SEIB-DGVM-NSC version 1.0)
Authors: Ninomiya Hideki , Kato Tomomichi , Végh Lea , Wu Lan
Published: July 2023

Abstract. Forest dynamics need to be considered when estimating the global
carbon budget. The alteration of forest structure and function under a
changing climate and expanding human activity could lead to a reduction of
forest canopy cover and a spread of lower-biomass ecosystems in warm and dry
regions. A non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) acts as a storage buffer between
carbon supplied by assimilation and carbon consumed by, inter alia,
respiration, reproduction, and pests. Estimation of NSC concentrations in a
tree is very important for accurate projection of future forest dynamics. We
developed a new NSC module for incorporation into a spatially explicit
individual-based dynamic global vegetation model (SEIB-DGVM) to validate
the simulated NSC dynamics with observations. NSC pools were simulated in
three plant organs: leaves, trunk, and roots. The seasonal dynamics of the
NSCs varied among plant species, and the sizes of the NSC pools inferred
from observations differed between the boreal, temperate, and tropical
climates. The NSC models were therefore validated for each of the three
climatic regions at both point and global scales to assess the performance
of the models. The modeled NSCs showed good agreement in seasonality with
the observed NSCs at four sites – Canada (boreal), Austria and Switzerland
(temperate), and Panama (tropical) – and in mean values for three climate
zones derived from the global NSC dataset. The SEIB-DGVM-NSC version 1.0 is expected
to enable simulation of biome shifts caused by the changes in NSC dynamics
worldwide. These dynamics will contribute to changes in not only the global
carbon cycle but also in forest structure and demography at a global scale.

Regional indicators of the marine environment quality in the radiation aspect, that is, reference levels of radionuclides in seawater and bottom sediments, which provide an acceptable degree of ecological risk, have been developed to analyze radioecological conditions in the Kara Sea. Local concentration factors of 137Cs, 90Sr, 239, 240Pu, 241Am in biota and bottom sediments of the Kara Sea are estimated using long-term observations data. For the majority of representative organisms of the Kara Sea, the concentration factors of technogenic radionuclides differ from the reference values. Reference levels of 137Cs, 90Sr, 239, 240Pu, 241Am in water and bottom sediments of the Kara Sea have been calculated. The contamination index for both water and bottom sediments is several orders of magnitude lower than an environmentally safe level and also tends to decrease by 3 and 1.5 times, respectively, in 2004-2012 as compared to 1992-1996.

Hindutva led Communal Repression by BJP: Mobilized Muslim Minority in India
Authors: Shaikh Ayesha , Iqbal Gulraiz , Fazal Janeeta , Khan Amna
Published: July 2023

India, under Hindutva led BJP government, is becoming a hotpot for ethnic tensions between Hindus and Muslims. Muslims as a minority communal group, have been facing socio-economic, cultural/perceptual, structural and political discrimination in India that has amounted up to the persisting sense of collective grievance among the members of community. Research explains how erosion of democratic apparatus of state; has rendered Muslim minority with the only available option of violent political action. It has deployed a theoretical construct of Ethnic Security dilemma as well as Ted Robert Gurr’s model of minorities rebellion. It has explained that state repression provokes minorities to go violent. However, in India, owing to the lack of Group-cohesion and mobilization potential, Muslims have not yet transcended towards de-legitimization of state apparatus, or Rebellion. Future of the Conflict depends upon the State policies as well as the potential of the group, If the state keeps on launching autocratic Anti-Muslim communal violence, leaving no democratic way out, Muslims can resort to Rebellion as the only way out
Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar Economic Corridor (BCIM-EC) Options for Participating Countries
Authors: Wasi Awais , Azhar Ahmad
Published: July 2023

This study deals with Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar Economic Corridor (BCIM-EC), one of six economic corridors of Belt & Road Initiative (BRI) designed by China in 2013 to establish regional connectivity with South Asian countries and Indian Ocean. The countries of BCIM-EC had a traditional interaction in the socio-economic and cultural fields under Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar (BCIM) forum that existed long before BRI since 1999. After the launch of BRI, the BCIM forum was brought under the umbrella of BRI which was objected by India due to its reservations towards BRI. The project got set back since the establishment of Modi’s government in India which ultimately halted the opportunity of development and integration of the region. This study argues that BCIM-EC provides the best opportunity for its participating countries to address their socio-economic problems through launching various infrastructural projects with the financial help of China. To explore the potentials of this corridor, qualitative research methods have been used and data collected from various articles, research papers, statements of leaders of participating countries and opinion of scholars of relevant fields. This research is conducted mainly under two theories i.e. the Complex Interdependence and Prospect Theory which helped in studying the potentials of this corridor for the participating countries on one hand and exploring the possible options to execute it successfully on the other hand. The findings of the study state that the BCIM-EC has great potentials for the participating countries but their geostrategic gains and losses must not be counted the same. It also gives certain options to put the BCIM-EC on track through misusing India for the time being by launching Bangladesh China Myanmar Economic Corridor (BCM-EC).
Reproductive Health in Health Polices of Punjab Province: Gaps and Challenges
Authors: Nadeem Madiha , Malik Ra'ana
Published: July 2023

Pakistan has to place a strong emphasis on reproduction as part of an inclusive healthcare strategy that would improve the general health of its population. The aim of this paper is to analyze the health policies of the Punjab Province post-18th Amendment by focusing on the area of reproductive health. For this purpose, health policies were analyzed thematically. After reviewing and analyzing policies, we identified areas of concern about reproductive health care, including the lack of infrastructure and human resources and the lack of evidence-based health-related data and research to respond to or design need-based initiatives. Additionally, reproductive health seems to revolve around special issues and target communities by taking international commitments to the Millennium Development Goals and Sustainable Development Goals as a guideline (maternal and child health and prevention of sexually transmitted diseases). It is also found that significant donor funds are only related to family planning and maternal and child care services. These findings indicate that reproductive health measures regulate the fertility and sexual behavior of the target community, along with focusing more on maternal health, which somehow reveals the prevailing gender norms regarding roles in society. Reproductive health issues among men, transgender people, and non-parents are ignored. It is hoped that the identified gaps might be helpful in planning and ensuring access, quality, and equity in reproductive health services.
Job Satisfaction and Receiving Prosocial Workplace Behaviors Among Rehabilitation Counselors
Authors: McCarthy Amanda K. , McCarthy Randy J.
Published: July 2023

Job satisfaction represents how an employee evaluates their job as favorable to unfavorable. Job satisfaction is widely studied because it can affect how an employee thinks, feels, and behaves in relation to their job. There is evidence that a supportive work environment tends to have outcomes that are more positive for the individual employees and the organization in general. While the rehabilitation counseling supervisor is a source of support (e.g., supervisor shows that they value counselor’s contributions; supervisor supports counselor decisions; supervisor trusts counselor to try new things), supervisors are often tasked with many duties in addition to their critical role of supervision and rehabilitation counselors may experience barriers to receiving support from supervisors. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between job satisfaction and support, in the form of prosocial behaviors from individuals in their organization (e.g., one member of an organization helping another complete a task; one member of the organization conveying actions of respect towards another; one member of the organization listening to anxiety and fears at work of another). Among the sample of rehabilitation counselors employed in the state vocational rehabilitation program studied, results indicate that rehabilitation counselors who received support from their supervisor and support from others in the organization reported the highest levels of job satisfaction. For counselors receiving low levels of support from their supervisor, receiving support from others in the organization seemed to make up for lack of support from the supervisor in terms of job satisfaction. In terms of job satisfaction, results indicate it is critical for rehabilitation counselors to receive support from individuals in the workplace in some capacity.
A Corpus-based Study of the Lexical Bundles in the Ph. D Linguistics Dissertations’ Abstracts in Pakistani Universities
Authors: Malik Zeeshan Akram
Published: July 2023

The present study analyses the lexical bundles (LBs) used by scholars of PhD linguistics in Pakistani universities. For this purpose, a small corpus of the abstracts of 73 PhD linguistics theses ranging from 2017 to 2022 was built. Antconc software was used to get the frequencies of the LBs. The objectives of the study were to examine the structural and functional taxonomies of those LBs. Biber’s (1999) classification was used for the structural analysis, while Hyland’s (2008) classification was used for the functional analysis. The study found there is a less tendency toward the use of 4-word LBs. It was disappointing to observe a low frequency of structural analysis for 4-word LBs. On the other hand, the functional classification of the LBs was relatively satisfactory due to the discovery of a higher number of 4-word LBs.The study stresses the importance of teaching the structure and functions of LBs from the intermediate level so that when these students reach the postgraduate level, they should be able to adhere to the rules of cohesion and coherence.

Published: July 2023

Oncological morbidity remains one of the first places in the structure of all human diseases. In this regard, the number of radical surgeries performed with regional lymphodissection is also increasing, which is the main cause of postoperative lymphorrhoea and lymphostasis. Unfortunately, not everyone considers lymphorrhea a dangerous consequence of lymphadenectomy, so there is little information in the literature. This article presents data on the incidence of lymphorrhea and other lymphatic complications in the postoperative period in oncosurgical patients.

Published: July 2023

According to a number of authors, the incidence of lymphorrhea after surgical treatment of breast cancer reaches 100%. In recent years, new methods of treating postoperative lymphorrhea have begun to appear, including the use of photodynamic therapy (PDT).

Purpose of the study: to determine the possibility of using photodynamic therapy in the treatment of postoperative lymphorrhea and to evaluate its impact on the quality of life of patients.

Material and methods. A prospective study involving 40 people was conducted. In 20 patients, photodynamic therapy was used in the treatment of postoperative lymphorrhea (main group), in 20 patients, punctures and pressure bandages were used (comparison group). Quality of life was assessed based on the data of the SF-36 questionnaire before the start of treatment, after 3 and 6 months. After 1 year, the condition of all patients was also assessed to identify signs of lymphostasis.

Results. In the main group, in patients who underwent photodynamic therapy, lymphorrhea was completely stopped by the end of the third week. In patients from the comparison group at the same time, the volume of daily lymphorrhea was (41.4 ± 0.3) ml. A statistically significant difference was found between the indicators of the physical component of health in patients of the two groups 3 months after the start of treatment: role functioning associated with the physical component, pain intensity, general health and vitality. At the same time, the use of photodynamic therapy did not increase the risk of developing lymphostasis of the upper limb.

Conclusion. The study showed that the use of photodynamic therapy in the treatment of postoperative lymphorrhea can reduce the amount of lymph loss, reduce the time of outpatient treatment, and also improve the quality of life of patients, while not increasing the risk of developing lymphostasis of the upper limb.
