Abstract. While the atmosphere in the Eastern Mediterranean is part of the dust belt, it encounters air masses from Europe, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Sahara and Arabian Deserts that bring with them a whole host of potential dust and bioaerosol compositions and concentrations via long-range transport. The consequential changes in the populations of ice-nucleating particles (INPs), aerosols that influence weather and climate by the triggering of freezing in supercooled cloud water droplets, including in the convective cloud systems in the region, are not so well understood beyond the influence of desert dust storms in increasing INP concentrations. Here, we undertook an intensive INP measurement campaign in Israel to monitor changes in concentrations and activity from four major air masses, including the potential for activity from biological INPs. Our findings show that the INP activity in the region is likely dominated by the K-feldspar mineral content, with southwesterly air masses from the Sahara Desert and easterly air masses from the Arabian Deserts markedly increasing both aerosol and INP concentrations. Most intriguingly, air masses that passed over the Fertile Crescent, a crescent-shaped region of fertile soils, agriculture, wetlands, and marshes stretching from the Nile Delta and over northern Syria to eastern Iraq, brought high INP concentrations with strong indicators of biological activity. These results suggest that the Fertile Crescent could be a sporadic source of high-temperature biological ice-nucleating activity across the region that could periodically dominate the otherwise K-feldspar-controlled INP environment and warrants further exploration in future studies in the region. This is particularly true given the ongoing desertification of the Fertile Crescent that could reveal further sources of dust and fertile soil-based INPs in the future.
Geomorphic expressions of active rifting reflect the role of structural inheritance: A new model for the evolution of the Shanxi Rift, North China

Published: November 2023

Abstract. Many rifts are influenced by pre-existing structures and heterogeneities during their evolution, a process known as structural inheritance. During rift evolution, these heterogeneities may aid rift nucleation, growth, and segmentation of faults, encourage linkage of various segments, or even inhibit the formation of faults. Understanding how structural inheritance influences early rift evolution could be vital for evaluating seismic risk in tectonically active areas. The Shanxi Rift in the North of China is an active rift system believed to have formed along the trend of the Proterozoic Trans North China Orogen, however, the influence of these pre-existing structures on the present-day rift architecture is poorly known. Here we use tectonic geomorphological techniques, e.g., hypsometric integral (HI), channel steepness (ksn) and local relief to identify the impact of structural inheritance on the formation of the Shanxi Rift. Of these measures, we found that HI was less sensitive to lithology and more valuable in evaluating the tectonic signal. Based on their geomorphic expression we characterise the activity levels of active faults and found that activity is concentrated in two rift interaction zones (RIZ) formed between the sub-basins. Furthermore, we found that many faults formed parallel to inherited structures. Based on these observations we propose a new model for the evolution of the Shanxi Rift where inherited structures play an important part in the initial segmentation of the rift which in turn controls the development of the RIZ structures. Geomorphic indices might prove useful in the study of the evolution of structural inheritance in other active rifts, such as the East African Rift.

A neural network (NN) algorithm for the sea surface wind speed retrieval from the MTVZA-GYa Russian satellite microwave radiometer measurements is presented. The algorithm is based on the physical modeling of the brightness temperature of microwave radiation in the ocean-atmosphere system using new theoretical geophysical model functions of the dependence of ocean radiation on wind speed. The algorithm is validated by comparing the wind fields retrieved from the MTVZA-GYa data with those obtained from the AMSR2 radiometer (Japan) for different areas of the World Ocean with a difference in measurement time not exceeding five minutes. The validation has shown that the NNs with a number of neurons n from 3 to 8 provide the smallest root-mean-square difference between the AMSR2 and MTVZA-GYa retrieved wind speeds, namely 1.6 m/s. When mapping the wind speed in tropical cyclones, the best fit to the wind fields from the AMSR2 data is obtained using the NN with n = 4.

Based on the synthesis of the radar and LS8000 lightning detection network data, as well as the cloud resolving modeling, the effect of glaciogenic seeding on the electrical activity of a hail-hazardous cloud, which developed in the North Caucasus on May 14, 2012 was investigated. It has been proved that the introduction of a reagent leads to an increase in the frequency of intracloud discharges and in the total current of negative cloud-to-ground discharges. An increase in the peak current of the cloud-to-ground discharges of both polarities occurs in 10-15 minutes after the seeding termination. Seeding significantly increases the frequency of lightning discharges both in a cloud and a subcloud layer. As a result of seeding, the charge structure of a cloud turns out to be inverted: there is not a positive but a negative charge in its upper part.
Francesco Carletti, cultures marchandes et savoirs de l’Orient à la fin du XVIe siècle
Authors: Bussotti Michela
Published: November 2023

Le marchand florentin Francesco Carletti parcourut le monde au début du XVIIe siècle: cet article donne un aperçu des informations qu’il recueillit et des “connaissances” qu’il développa pendant et après son séjour en Asie de l’Est et du Sud. Trois types de sources liées à ce marchand ont été analysés: les Relations anonymes (dont au moins une lui est attribuée); les textes manuscrits des Ragionamenti publiés à titre posthume en 1701 (Ragionamenti di Francesco Carletti fiorentino sopra le cose da lui vedute ne’ suoi viaggi, sì dell’Indie Occidentali e Orientali come d’altri paesi), et les notes en italien sur un atlas chinois qu'il avait ramené à Florence. Ces textes interdépendants révèlent que le marchand italien était informé des navigations et du calendrier des voyages océaniques, qu’il était intéressé par les produits exotiques et par la métrologie, mais également qu’il était attiré par la culture de ces royaumes, en particulier par la culture chinoise écrite dont les “caractères hiéroglyphiques” étaient connus dans d’autres pays d’Asie de l’Est.

Authors: Tu Kelsey J. , Lam Jesse H. , Kang Byeong-Il , Kim Aram , Kim Sehwan
Published: November 2023

Purpose: The development of optics-based wearables for bladder volume monitoring has emerged as a significant topic in recent years. Given the innovative nature of this technology, there is currently no bladder phantom available to effectively validate these devices against more established gold standards, such as ultrasound. In this study, we showcase and demonstrate the performance of our hybrid bladder phantom by using an optical device and making comparisons with ultrasound.Methods: A series of validation tests, including phantom repeatability, ultrasound scanning, and an optical test, were performed. A near-infrared optical device was utilized to conduct diffuse optical spectroscopy (DOS). Machine learning models were employed to construct predictive models of volume using optical signals.Results: The size and position of an embedded balloon, serving as an analog for the bladder, were shown to be consistent when infused with 100 mL to 350 mL of water during repeatability testing. For DOS data, we present 7 types of machine learningbased models based on different optical signals. The 2 best-performing models demonstrated an average absolute volume error ranging from 12.7 mL to 19.0 mL.Conclusions: In this study, we introduced a hybrid bladder phantom designed for the validation of near-infrared spectroscopy-based bladder monitoring devices in comparison with ultrasound techniques. By offering a reproducible and robust validation tool, we aim to support the advancement of next-generation optical wearables for bladder volume monitoring.

Influence of precipitation on landslide activity in Southwestern Bulgaria in the context of climate change
Authors: Ivanov Ivailo , Ivanova Evelina
Published: November 2023

The article analyzes the annual precipitation in the region of Southwest Bulgaria for the period 1991-2021 and the relationship between precipitation and the activation of landslides in the region. For this purpose, publicly available materials from the website of Geozashtita EOOD – Pernik (http://gz-pernik.mrrb.government.bg/landslide/) and from the website https://www.stringmeteo.com/ were used. The increased intensity of rainfall in some months is also the reason for the increase in the number of new landslides, which often creates significant problems for the operation and maintenance of the Bulgarian transport infrastructure. The main results of the study show that during the analyzed period there was an increase in months with extreme precipitation, and this is largely related to the global changes in the Earth's climate. The presented results provide an opportunity for conducting further studies linking climate change with the development of hazardous geological processes, and the negative impact of these phenomena on the road infrastructure emphasizes the need to develop dynamic models for obtaining information in real time.
Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: A Case Report and Review on Diagnosis and Novel Interventions in Management
Authors: Harris Bilal , Rampurawala Fatema Aliasger , Joshi Rhea
Published: November 2023

Acute respiratory distress syndrome is a type of acute diffuse lung injury, frequently brought on by sepsis, trauma, and severe pulmonary infections and continues to be one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients, despite the constantly involving advancements. The management strategies have constantly evolved with a wide array of ventilation strategies, conservative fluid management, neuromuscular blockade. As we move into the post pandemic Era, the mortality rate due to ARDS continues to remain high hence improving patient outcomes is the primary goal of the various treatment approaches. The two most effective techniques are still prone ventilation and lung protection ventilation. In this report we aim to present the case of a 30-year old female who has undergone left lobectomy in childhood and presents to the clinic with palpitations, fever, shortness of breath and spasmodic cough with phlegm. The workup included chest Xray, CT scan, arterial blood gas with electrolytes, echocardiography and urinanalysis. Based on clinical and imaging findings, the diagnosis of acute respiratory distress syndrome was made. Against the background of intensive treatment, the patient’s condition improved to some extent, with positive dynamics. Lung protective ventilation, prone ventilation, high frequency oscillatory ventilation among many other novel interventions and futuristic direction of ARDS with mesenchymal stromal cells and Ulinastatin, a urinary glycoprotein and protease inhibitor provides a ray of hope in the management of this acute condition.

Case Series of Warts and Its Individualised Homoeopathic Treatment
Authors: Das Mousumi , Paramanya Ananya
Published: November 2023

The mirror of your health is your skin. When health gets compromised there are growth on your skin. Warts are the commonest viral infections which are benign skin growths that grow in various forms on different parts of the body. Warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), of which there are over 100 types. Inadequate rest, poor diet, increased stress, weak immune systems and close living quarters can also contribute to risk of acquiring the wart virus which means warts too have an individualistic and immunological basis. Warts can affect people at any age but most common in children and teenagers. Warts can be ugly, uncomfortable, potentially contagious and some people feel abashed. Warts may be single, multiple, cauliflower like or smooth and are usually managed by applying external ointment or surgical excision procedure. Warts comes under sycotic miasm. Although it is a local disease, but an individualized homoeopathic treatment can eradicate the warts locally and internally. Hence, the search for a safe, cost-effective treatment where good health comes naturally ends here. The cases discussed below comprises of filiform warts, oral mucosal wart and common warts which were treated with Thuja occidentalis, Causticum and Thuja occidentalis respectively. These case series show how effectively homoeopathic remedies works and provide positive results in warts.

An Evidence-Based Homoeopathic Case Series in the Treatment of Hyperuricemia
Authors: Halder Supriya , Khanam Henna , Sasmal Sushanta
Published: November 2023

In the modern era, hyperuricemia is an increasingly common medical problem due to our unhealthy lifestyle. Increased consumption of different purine-rich diet like meat, sea-foods, fructose, alcohol, etc. for a long time, gradually enhances monosodium urate crystal deposition in joints and synovial fluids. It is commonly manifested by recurrent acute pain in the monoarticular joints, usually in the great toe, along with swelling, stiffness and redness. Chronic hyperuricemia can even lead to gout and nephrolithiasis in the long run. Different Homoeopathic literature enlists many medicines for hyperuricemia, but there is a paucity of evidence-based published studies. Here we have presented three cases of hyperuricemia treated successfully with individualized Homoeopathic medicines and the result was evident within three months. The individual curative response of Homoeopathic medicines was assessed through a reduction in serum uric acid (SUA) levels (baseline vs. 3 months) as well as improvement in quality of life (QoL) by scores of Short Form (SF)-36 questionnaire (baseline vs. 3 months). After the study, it was evident that Homoeopathy provides a curative approach to the patient suffering from hyperuricemia, both physically and mentally, without any adverse effects.

Published: November 2023

Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is a term used to describe the accumulation of fat in the liver of people who drink little or no alcohol. Previous studies have shown a higher prevalence of left ventricular remodelling and diastolic dysfunction in patients with NAFLD but they all include patients with obesity, diabetes and/or hypertension, which are by themselves well known risk factors for cardiovascular dysfunction. Our aim was to find out the cardiological dysfunction in non alcoholic fatty liver disease patients without conventional cardiovascular risk factors as diabetes and hypertension. We performed a cross-sectional study in 70 non alcoholic fatty liver disease patients without hypertension, diabetes and 30 controls without NAFLD, with an aim to find out any cardiological dysfunction, its occurrence, nature and correlation, with simple and cost-effective means, such as echocardiography, electrocardiography and some relevant biochemical parameters. Cases and controls were subjected to detailed echocardiography examination, including tissue Doppler imaging. CRP, uric acid, lipid profile, liver function tests were done. Results were compared between cases and controls and suitable statistical analysis were done. Cases had higher waist circumference compared to controls, though BMI and body weight were not different. Blood pressure, blood sugar was similar between two groups. Serum triglyceride was more in NAFLD group. Though diabetes, hypertension was excluded,20 out of 70 patients met the criteria for metabolic syndrome. Left ventricular end diastolic diameter and left ventricular mass index were more in NAFLD group suggesting cardiac structural alteration. NAFLD patients also showed lower early diastolic velocity (E) and lower early to late diastolic flow (E/A), thus demonstrating diastolic dysfunction. Our study also showed a sensitive and specific cutoff value for LVMI, which can be very useful in Indian scenario.
So, our study demonstrated cardiological structural and functional alteration in NAFLD patients independent of conventional risk factors of diabetes, hypertension and obesity in Indian perspective, where it is recently emerging as a booming epidemic.

A Review of Therapeutic Management for Lateral Epicondylitis
Authors: Kocheta Rachna
Published: November 2023

This paper examines studies that assess different therapeutic interventions for treating lateral epicondylitis. Various medical treatments, including drug therapies, surgical interventions and physical therapies are examined and evaluated based on the available evidence supporting their effectiveness. Various treatments have been studied for the management of lateral epicondylitis, but no specific therapy has been identified as the definitive best option with clearly superior long-term effectiveness. The existing research has some methodological flaws despite its commendable studies. Some limitations observed in the study are the absence of non-treatment and placebo controls, lack of objective outcome measures, inadequate follow-up and insufficient subject numbers. The paper addresses the constraints of existing research and proposes suggestions for future investigations. The paper discusses the need for further research on various therapies and encourages researchers to evaluate its effectiveness to determine the best treatment method for lateral epicondylitis.

Published: November 2023

As an important part of the advanced Intelligent Traffic System (ITS) in the Internet of Vehicles (IoV), Vehicle to everything (V2X) communication technology provides reliable end-to-end connection and efficient packet transmission. Currently, the main challenge is design and implementation of the multi-hop broadcast protocol. In particular, the network topology is constantly changing because of the high-speed vehicle and diversified road structure, which troubles the selection of forward nodes. Therefore, we propose an Emergency Message Broadcast Protocol (EMBP). In this method, we select the optimal relay node according to the directionality and mobility, channel fading, and link connectivity and apply a suboptimal relay node selection mechanism to guarantee the reliability of broadcast. Simulation results show that EMBP is more efficient and stable than part classical protocols. Due to the complex communication environment of urban roads, to better improve the reliability of emergency message transmission, a broadcasting scheme Roadside Unit (RSU) Emergency Message Broadcast Protocol (REMBP), based on Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle to Road (V2R) hybrid transmission of emergency messages is proposed on the basis of EMBP. Compared with EMBP, REMBP has better performance in terms of delivery rate, number of forwarding hops, end-to-end delay, average number of collisions, number of packet redundancy, and number of retransmissions.
A comparison of virtual worlds based on the metaverse maturity model
Authors: Weinberger Markus , Gross Daniel
Published: November 2023

The realization and adoption of the metaverse vision is still in its infancy. In order to answer the question of how close today's virtual worlds get to this metaverse vision, the metaverse maturity model has been applied to evaluate a sample of eight selected virtual worlds: Guild Wars 2, Fortnite, Second Life, Roblox, VRChat, Decentraland, Horizon Worlds, and The Sandbox. The model comprises eight core attributes with five maturity levels each. The results indicate that, on the one hand, technical preconditions for the metaverse, e.g.,sufficient computing power, network technology, and interoperability standards, are not yet met. On the other hand, core attributes which mainly depend on strategy, e.g., persistence and economic systems can yield high maturity levels, if the strategy is aligned accordingly. As the study shows the usefulness of the metaverse maturity model, future research should repeatedly evaluate metaverse maturity to track progress and identify the need for further development.
Female impoverishment in the democratic process: perspectives of decision-making power
Authors: Petry Faria Josiane , Beltrame Becker Fritz Karen , Marrades Puig Ana
Published: November 2023

This article analises problem the impact of female impoverishment on the democratic process, critically analyzing care relationships and the removal of decision-making power. Using the deductive method, it aims to investigate the imbalance of power and the invisibility of unpaid domestic work, as well as its consequent non-recognition by the law. To this end, it delimits the study into the invisibility of women's domestic work; the asymmetries of power and the difficulty of participating in democratic life; care and removal from decision-making power and, finally, women's political poverty and the need to review the deficit of democratic protagonism. The movement to reflect on and denounce gender inequality focuses on the overlap between paid and unpaid work relationships developed by women, and the inescapable conclusion is that the maintenance of patriarchy and the normalization of female impoverishment is largely due to the solidity of incessant, permanent, invisible and unpaid domestic work. The indignity of simultaneous working hours leads to women's material and, above all, political poverty and, as a result, to their removal from power and from the democratic processes of discussion and deliberation.

Foi investigada a eficiência do cultivo de Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 em meios experimentais elaborados com soro de leite bovino. Foram preparados meios líquido (caldo soro – CS) e sólido (ágar soro – AS) suplementados com cloreto de sódio (CS+NaCl e AS+NaCl) e extrato de levedura (CS+Lev e AS+Lev). No meio AS, foi testado o enriquecimento com extrato de levedura (0,1%) e diluição em água (40%) (AS+H2O+Lev). Os meios comerciais de caldo infusão cérebro coração (BHI) e ágar Baird-Parker (BP) foram utilizados como controle. A eficiência dos meios experimentais foi avaliada por determinação da biomassa e contagem de colônias, utilizando-se a cepa S. aureus ATCC 25923. Em todos os testes, o crescimento bacteriano foi compatível à quantificação observada nos meios utilizados como controle e houve desenvolvimento de colônias com características morfológicas típicas de S. aureus, principalmente no meio AS+H2O+Lev. Concluiu-se que o soro de leite bovino pode ser utilizado como componente alternativo na elaboração de meio de cultura para S. aureus.

The research is of a quantitative nature applied in research teaching as a tool to encourage students in the early years of Elementary School to explore, develop strategies, raise hypotheses and conjectures, test, debate and apply mathematical ideas to problem situations. The aim is to reflect on pedagogical practices in teaching Statistics, based on the guidelines of the National Curricular Parameters and the National Common Curricular Base. As a theoretical reference, the research sought support from sociointeractionism, from the perspective of Vygotsky. A paradidactic book was created for the statistical teaching, which involves the student in investigative activities and directs the teacher with strategies that mediate the construction of statistical reasoning. The application of the educational product occurred through a didactic sequence, with 18 students in the 3rd year of Elementary School from a public school in the city of Gama/DF, Brazil.

Controlling training loads is important to obtain results and avoid overtraining in athletes. In CrossTraining, subjective perception of effort (PSE) has been cited as an important parameter for load control, however, little is known about the contribution of physiological parameters. The objective of this study was to investigate the correlations between training control variables and performance in elite athletes during a CrossTraining competition. Ten athletes (26.4 ± 4.5 years, 84.32 ± 6.75 kg, height 1.74 ± 0.21 m) participated in the study. The RPE values ​​were recorded at the end of each test, and the athletes were monitored in real time using a HR monitoring system (Firstbeat SPORT, Jyvaskyla, Finland). The training control variables collected were: Total training volume (VTT), PSE, training load (PSE X time), mean and maximum HR, average and training impulse (TRIMP). Pearson's correlation coefficient demonstrated the following associations with competitive performance (VTT, r=0.87; RPE, r=0.28; training load, r=0.60; HRmáx, r=0.73; HRmean, r=0.76 and TRIMP, r=0.87). In conclusion, physiological parameters showed significant correlations compared to RPE, being more suitable for monitoring CrossTraining athletes.

Anxiety, fear and phobia of dental treatment are present in a large part of the population. As an effective method to control anxiety, sedation is currently present in dental offices, acting in a positive way in dental care procedures. In pediatric dentistry, the fear regarding consultation is mainly caused by the fact that the environment is new and unknown, and sometimes it is necessary to use sedative drugs, so that the care is efficient, fast and safe. This study is a case report involving two pediatric patients with dental treatment phobia who underwent sedation performed in an outpatient clinic under the supervision of an anesthesiologist. We conclude that drug sedation is a technique that should be considered in cases where there was no success in behavioral management to control aversive behavior in pediatric patients with phobia and the incorporation of this technique enables safe and effective dental care.

Análisis filosófico de los paradigmas educativos y su relación con la noción de paradigma de Thomas Kuhn
Authors: Conrado González Pedro Silvio
Published: November 2023

En el desarrollo de este ensayo se partió de la tesis “una vez que ha alcanzado el status de paradigma, una teoría científica se declara inválida sólo cuando se dispone de un candidato alternativo para que ocupe su lugar”, para ello se plantearon dos preguntas ¿Cuál sería la relación entre la filosofía y la pedagogía desde el estudio de los paradigmas educativos? y ¿En qué consiste el carácter científico de la pedagogía?, el objetivo principal consistió en analizar desde el punto de vista filosófico los paradigmas educativos y su relación con la noción de paradigma de Kuhn, llegando a las siguientes conclusiones se puede decir que en la actualidad conviven de manera simultánea varios tipos de paradigmas educativos, debido a que los cambios paradigmáticos en la educación no ocurren de manera lineal como en las ciencias tradicionales (fisicas) sino en forma de redes, y por lo tanto sus principios aun se mantienen vigentes.
The mediation role of safety training between risk perception and safety behaviors among non-medical hospital staff
Authors: Al-Bsheish Mohammad
Published: November 2023

The relationship between risk perception and safety outcomes has been extensively studied in the past, but there is scarce research on the mediating effect of safety training on risk perception and both safety dimensions of safety behaviors in hospital settings. This study investigates the role of safety training as a mediator in the relationship between risk perception and safety behavior, as measured by compliance and participation in safety measures. The cross-sectional data from one big private hospital in Saudi Arabia was examined using the most recent iteration of Smart Partial Least Squares (PLS4). A 71% response rate was achieved on surveys that were personally handed out to 155 non-medical staff in hospitals. In this study, the significance level for Percentile Bootstrapping with a 95% confidence interval and p ≤ 0.05 was utilized to analyze mediation. Safety training served as a full mediating variable in the link between risk perception and safety compliance. Surprisingly, safety training did not act as a mediator in the relationship between risk perception and safety participation. This study fills a gap in the body of knowledge about non-medical staff's attitudes toward risk, safety training, and safety behaviors. Additionally, it helps us comprehend how safety training can help people perceive risks and behave safely. Considering that hospital management and safety officials receive high-quality training on safety concerns, more workers follow safety precautions, and the number of workplace accidents is reduced. The results of this study can be used as a foundation for future studies to enhance occupational safety practices.
