The urban environment is a massive chemical generator where contaminants like hydrocarbon sulfur and nitrogen oxides react with solar to generate a range of products, such as ozone and dust particles. Consequently, certain regions are substantially exposed to harmful environmental influences, especially air pollution.  To improve the pollution-free environment in occupational settings, the impact of different respiratory conditions and their effects on the individual is assessed. Industrial operations, construction, and vehicle emissions expose urban areas to various air pollutants. To determine the impact of urban air pollution a collection of 150 individuals from food service, transportation, and construction is selected and the respiratory health with the consequences based on participants are evaluated based on demographic and occupational exposure. Questionnaires are developed based on breathing symptoms such as phlegm, throat irritations, chest discomfort, wheezing, and stuffy nose. Significant variables such as forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) and forced vital capacity (FVC) have been taken into consideration in monitoring the respiratory systems' condition. Statistical analysis technique with SPSS version 25 is employed for effective performance. A statistical technique includes multiple regression analysis for three various domains food service, transportation, and construction are explored more significantly in the field of examining the way respiratory health is affected by urban air pollution in occupational environments.

Authors: Keshari Behera Sangram , D. Patil Dhairyasheel , Jyothi.S Renuka , Puri Nancy , Kr Sharma Ashok
Published: February 2025

Abstract: Maintaining the well-being of patients and healthcare professionals depends on raising environmental health criteria inside hospital settings. Being heavy traffic sites, hospitals may struggle with waste management, air quality, infection control, and sustainability. Not only does ensuring ideal environmental health in these contexts help to reduce healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), but it also improves staff safety and patient outcomes. One important strategy is the application of strict infection control rules emphasising on keeping sterile surroundings. This covers consistent cleaning of high-touch surfaces, air filtration systems, and the acceptance of antimicrobial products. Apart from infection prevention, the hospital environment is much improved by air quality management. Modern ventilation systems together with monitoring and controlling air pollutants like volatile organic compounds (VOCs), particle matter (PM), and carbon dioxide (CO2) may significantly improve the hospital environment. Hospital waste management especially the handling of non-hazardous items and medical waste is another area of issue. Emphasising lessening of the environmental effect of their operations, hospitals are progressively implementing waste segregation and recycling policies. Correct disposal and management of waste including sharp items, toxic pharmaceutical products, and other bio hazardous materials helps to provide a safer environment for patients and staff members both. Modern healthcare buildings also increasingly feature sustainability projects like green infrastructure and energy-efficient building designs. Hospitals may reduce their carbon footprint by using sustainable water management techniques, renewable energy sources, and energy-efficient equipment, therefore helping to support world environmental health objectives. Additionally, the use of eco-friendly cleaning agents and the reduction of single-use plastics further supports sustainability efforts in healthcare.

Published: February 2025

The changing nature of healthcare calls for more effective, patient-centered methods of treatment. Combining many healthcare services, technologies, and real-time data analytics, integrated healthcare platforms (IHPs) seem like a great approach to improve patient care. This research investigates whether or not IHPs could enhance patient outcomes and the way healthcare is given. Among the strategies used were a thorough review of present IHP models, conversations with healthcare professionals, and an examination of patient satisfaction surveys. Examining important success criteria like care management, access to healthcare services, and patient engagement helped them to ascertain the performance of the systems. Results reveal that IHPs greatly simplify patient coordination of care, reduce patient wait times, and increase general patient contentment. Telemedicine, data exchange, and tailored treatment regimens all help to streamline healthcare administration. Still major issues, however, include merging technology, data security concerns, and the great expense of the original program. IHPs have great potential to change the way healthcare is provided notwithstanding these challenges. Finally, by motivating healthcare professionals to collaborate, reducing unnecessary activities, and orienting treatment towards the patient, IHPs show great potential for improving the quality of patient care. To fully use their potential, technologies need more study and investments in their systems.

Saving lives in an emergency depends much on Emergency medical response services (EMRS). These offerings, but, function in dangerous places wherein rescue professionals run several dangers during their employment. The number one goal of this take a look at is to investigate the occupational safety and health (OSH) rules of emergency scientific response services in order to become aware of risks, assess present safety measures, and propose way of creating them more secure and healthier for workers. Closely analysing modern safety policies, risk elements, and incident reports enabled one to decide how well they averted mistakes and accidents. Questionnaires and interviews with emergency clinical experts also were used to examine extra about their reports, protection issues, and challenges they've seeking to preserve themselves secure while administering care below quite a few stress. The results expose numerous important risk factors: physical stress, infectious diseases, toxic chemicals, and mental health problems including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Many emergency responders lack the required tools, training, and support systems; hence even although their jobs are quite important, many of them are not suited for these threats. The study stresses the need of a comprehensive OSH system involving not only physical safety precautions but also mental health help to empower people and improve their general well-being. Among the several key recommendations are to upgrade training courses, provide modern safety gear to employees, provide mental health tools, and promote a culture of safety whereby everyone participates in risk management strategies. By demonstrating how better Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) procedures may make responders safer, reduce accidents at work, and finally enhance the quality of emergency medical treatment for everyone, this study advances our knowledge of emergency medical services. These findings indicate a consistent strategy for safety that takes mental health into account in addition to physical one. This would increase the productivity and safety in the workplace.

Published: February 2025

The study on the effectiveness of intervention strategies in the participation of children in preschool activities at the “Antonio Parra - Velasco” School reveals a positive impact in general, although it also indicates diversity in the levels of involvement. Active, child-centered methodologies, especially physical and collaborative activities, are noted for their ability to engage and foster social skills. However, significant difficulties are identified in activities that require verbal and emotional expression, suggesting the need to adapt strategies to ensure that all children feel comfortable participating. Diversification of pedagogical approaches is key; Combining physical activities with methods that promote verbal expression can create a more inclusive environment. Furthermore, the importance of personalized support for those children with low levels of participation is highlighted, offering interventions in small groups or individual sessions that facilitate self-expression. Collaboration with families is essential to reinforce the child's development, creating a comprehensive approach that promotes learning. Finally, the need for reflective practice in education is highlighted, where continuous evaluation and feedback from students and families inform adjustments in methodologies, thus guaranteeing a more inclusive and effective education. In summary, diversity in participation requires continued attention and adaptation of strategies to ensure that all children benefit from learning in a nurturing and stimulating environment.

A socio-environmental conflict, without a social movement?: artisanal brickworks in San Luis Potosí
Authors: Aurora Acosta Cornu Samantha Aurora
Published: February 2025

Introduction: The article reviewed the issue of artisanal brick production in San Luis Potosí, addressing its socioeconomic, environmental, and political implications. Over two years of research, various studies on the brick-making sector were analyzed, identifying challenges in implementing effective public policies. Despite academic and governmental efforts, significant changes in the perception of the problem have not been achieved.Development: Brick production has been studied mainly from medical and environmental perspectives, without a comprehensive analysis of its social and economic implications. The lack of technological advancement has led to pollution issues, affecting workers' health and nearby communities. Public policies have prioritized sanctions and closures instead of structural solutions. In response, brickmakers have attempted to organize, but their movement has not been recognized as a political actor. The study explored social movement theories to determine whether the brick-making sector could be considered a social movement. Various theoretical approaches were reviewed, revealing that while collective action and shared identity exist, there is no formal structure or external recognition to validate it as a social movement.Conclusion: The study concluded that the brick-making sector’s problems remain unaddressed effectively. While elements of collective action are present, a solid social movement has not been established. The research suggested further exploration of the relationship between the brick-making community and other social movements to enhance their visibility and capacity for political influence.
Siddhartha and under the wheel: two novels by hermann hesse to understand the “epidemic of solitary lives” in the contemporary world
Authors: Luna Peralta Rafael
Published: February 2025

Introduction: The article examined the evolution of the concept of loneliness and its impact on contemporary society. It explored linguistic and historical definitions of loneliness and analyzed its transformation from a desired state of introspection to a problematic phenomenon associated with social isolation. It highlighted how modernity and individualization intensified the perception of loneliness as a global crisis.Development: Throughout the 20th century, isolation increased due to the acceleration of daily life and the emphasis on individual autonomy. Phenomena such as kudokushi in Japan, the rise of psychological disorders, and the proliferation of services aimed at combating loneliness were identified. Several countries implemented policies to address this "epidemic of lonely lives." However, a distinction was made between loneliness as an enriching state and isolation as a negative experience. Through the literature of Hermann Hesse, two types of isolation were contrasted: desolation, reflected in Beneath the Wheel, and transformative solitude, represented in Siddhartha.Conclusion: The study concluded that loneliness, far from being a problem in itself, can be a source of authenticity and personal growth. The "pandemic of loneliness" is a consequence of social disconnection, but the real solution lies in fostering genuine solitude, enabling introspection and a deeper commitment to oneself and society.

THE ROLE OF THE CRIMINAL JUDGE IN THE BURDEN OF PROOF COMPARATIVE APPROACH TO COMMON LAW AND ROMANO-GERMANIC SYSTEMS
Authors: Pradel Jean
Published: February 2025

The paper analyses the role of the criminal judge in the burden of proof. The author presents comparative approach to Common Law and Romano-Germanic systems. In criminal proceedings, theory of proof is one of the most complicated issues. As regards the burden of proof, there are at least, two conceptions: adversarial and inquisitorial. According to the adversarial conception, burden of proof refers most generally to the obligation of a party to prove its allegations at trial. Indeed, the proceedings are considered as an activity in front of the Court. On the contrary, when it comes to the inquisitorial conception, the judge is in the middle of the trial, searching for the truth. His duty is to determine who committed the violation and how. Consequently, the proceedings are an activity of the Court (or more precisely of the judge). Nowadays two systems could be distinguished, especially when it comes to the criminal proceedings: Common Law system (England, North America, Italy...) and Romano-Germanic system (or European continental). Whereby Common Law system is more adversarial, Romano-Germanic system is more inquisitorial. So, the world of criminal proceedings has become a kind of melting pot. In the first part of the article, the author presents classical differences between these two systems, which are still significant. The second part is devoted to the modern convergences, gaining more and more importance. At the end, the author states that the best solution (or the least bad solution) is inquisitorial conception mitigated by adversarial one.
MIGRATIONS AS CRIMINOLOGICAL PROBLEM: CRIME OF MIGRANTS – USA EXPERIENCE
Authors: Ignjatović Djordje
Published: February 2025

Review of thoughts about inﬂuence of migrations (in this article migrations are defined as horizontal movements of large groups of people from one sociocultural environment into another) on crime begins in this paper with the origins of „the first real american theory“ – Chicago School and it ends in our time. The article analyzes the most important representatives of ecological theory, subcultural theory, social-learning theory as well as their successors in the second half of the 20th century. Their work encompasses an abundant inventory of ideas that could be used in comprehension of correlation between crime and migrations. On the other hand, it is absurd that it seems that thoughts of inﬂuence of migrations on crime, at least in the USA, are more inﬂuenced by traditional prejudices in the public encouraged by the representatives of the authority and to them loyal media, instead of the scientific research which show that migrations are not criminogenic factor. However, this does not mean that migrant movements do not contribute, together with other factors (disorganized environment in which they come, family relationships, inﬂuence of criminal subcultures and groups) to criminal offences. This especially refers to juveniles and members of migrant communities that make efforts to succeed (enrich themselves) in life by illegitimate means. Those often decide to join groups from the criminal underworld and to become part of organized crime. Perhaps the best explanation offers the theory of ethnic succession, which could partially be applied on the crime of lower social classes in other countries.

PERSPECTIVES OF THE PRESIDENTIALISATION OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL SYSTEM OF TURKEY
Authors: Mikić Vladimir
Published: February 2025

This article examines the needs for reforming the constitutional system of Turkey, created by the Constitution of 1982, as well as the possibilities for implementing these needs. Since numerous relevant stakeholders are included in the informal process of constitutional revision, conditions have been created for the adoption of a document which would aim at consolidating and fostering the civilian and democratic resources, needed for the strengthening of rule of law and liberal constitutionalism in Turkey. However, the ruling political forces have manifested their goal in submitting proposals for making the office of the president more effective and independent from other institutional forces in the country. Steps made towards speeding up the work on revision of the Constitution suggest the strong possibility of introduction of the presidential system, regardless of other constitutional priorities, and despite the fact that important parts of the Turkey’s political system are opposed to it. This article analyzes the proposed changes, particularly by comparing them with the existing constitutional framework, and offers a critical review of the attempt to presidentialize the constitutional system of Turkey, labeling it as manipulative, depleted of any purpose, and providing no answers to the real needs of the constitutional reform.

Authors: Matić Bosković Marina
Published: February 2025

Terrorist attacks in New York and Washington, as well as latter attacks in London and Madrid put counter-terrorism as one of the priorities in the EU. The EU since then has put efforts to find proper response and strategy in counter-terrorism. The role of some EU bodies is strengthen and new institutions are established. The most important institutions in fight against terrorism are European commission, as initiator of legal acts, Europol and Eurojust. Legislative activity has been intensified in the EU and the most important document is 2002 Framework decision on counter-terrorism in which for the first time we could find European common definition of terrorist offences, as well as draft Directive on counter-terrorism that was adopted by Commission in December 2015 after terrorist attacks in Paris. While adoption of this legal acts improves efficiency f EU actions in prevention and fight against terrorism, on the other hand, they have raised concerns of violation of fundamental rights and civil liberties. Author analyzed legal aspects of EU counter-terrorism policy. Although some positive results are achieved there is a need to put additional efforts to improve EU legal framework in the area of fight against terrorism.
THE LIMITS OF ASSISTED SUICIDE IN GERMAN CRIMINAL LAW
Authors: Marković Ivana
Published: February 2025

This paper begins with the evaluation of the limitations between the not punishable suicide assistance and killing on request done by omission (§ 216 CC, „mercy killing“), with the change of rule over the act as central criterion of the analysis. A delimitation to failure to render assistance (§ 323c CC), where suicide is (mis)interpreted as accident in terms of this offense, leading to narrowing of impunity, has also been made. The second part deals with another limitation of impunity of those who are assisting suicide, currently being in center of focus because of the new offense of business-like support of suicide (§ 217 CC), which is now, with a few exceptions, prohibiting the business-like providing, making available and mediating the possibility for suicide.

Authors: Stošić Sanja , Rabrenović Mihajlo
Published: February 2025

Human rights and freedoms are one of the main achievements of the European Union. This paper is about the evolution of the legal and organisational framework that regulates health insurance in the European Union. EU policy has evolved with each enlargement of the EU in order to ensure the free movement of people, goods, services and capital, health legislation evolved as well. All states have behaved in accordance with international health sector goals to improve the health status of the population in accordance with its powers, however due to the large differences in the of health sector development, at one time the freedom of movement of people and their health insurance is brought into question. In establishing a health insurance system that which would be implemented throughout the European Union, the European Court of Justice handed down its judgment in several cases and played an important role in the developing the European health insurance card.
