Model-driven Privacy
Authors: Krstic Srdan , Nguyen Hoang , Basin David
Published: October 2023

Data protection regulations in many countries require IT systems to implement baseline privacy requirements like purpose limitation and consent as mandated by the GDPR. Such requirements are often specified in the system’s privacy policy and are challenging to implement as system developers must address them consistently and in a cross-cutting manner. Moreover, without a formal connection between a system’s privacy policy and its implementation, the system’s correctness and evolution are extremely difficult to attain. We propose a model-driven development methodology that incorporates privacy policies into the system design. Namely, we define a system’s privacy model, which has precise semantics and is used to specify privacy policies. We provide semantic-preserving model transformations that generate system implementations that enforce the given privacy policies by design. We implement two such model transformations, targeting C# and Python system implementations. We evaluate our methodology on three substantial case studies and show the enforcement of privacy policies related to purpose limitation and consent. Our evaluation also demonstrates our approach’s generality, effectiveness, and modest overhead.

Authors: Lee Sang Jun , Noh Seung Jin , Kim Jeong Rock , Park Kyung Bok , Jeon Sae-rom , Hong Yejin , Nam Dongwoo
Published: October 2023

Background: Low-level laser treatment (LLLT) is used to treat low back pain (LBP) however, its effects on lumbar disc herniation (LDH) remain unclear. The safety and effectiveness of LLLT for LDH was determined using a systematic review of randomized clinical trials.Methods: Studies on LLLT in adults with LDH were identified from 12 worldwide databases. A risk of bias assessment and a meta-analysis with categorization according to the type of control used (inactive, active, or add-on) was performed. The quality of evidence was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation.Results: The quantitative analyses included five studies. LLLT was significantly more effective at treating LDH [leg pain visual analog scale (VAS) mean difference (MD): -1.90, 95% confidence interval (CI): -2.01, -1.80, I2 80%; LBP VAS MD: -0.79, 95% CI: -0.87, -0.71, I2 80%] than inactive controls (placebo or sham). The quality of the evidence ranged from “low” to “very low.” As an add-on to usual care, LLLT significantly improved pain intensity and disability compared with usual care (leg pain VAS MD: -2.52, 95% CI: -2.65, -2.40, I2 97%; LBP VAS MD: -1.47, 95% CI: -1.58, -1.36; Oswestry Disability Index MD: -4.10, 95% CI: -4.55, -3.65, I2 6%). However, the quality of the evidence ranged from “moderate” to “low.”Conclusion: LLLT significantly improved outcomes compared with the inactive controls, but was not more effective than usual care for LDH. In combination with usual care, LLLT was significantly more effective than usual care alone highlighting the potential of LLLT.

Published: October 2023

Infectious endocarditis (IE) occurs after the colonization of the cardiac endocardium by virulent microorganisms, usually bacteria. Infective endocarditis causes significant morbidity and mortality, even in this era of antibiotics. Here we present a 52-year-old male patient with hypertension and ischemic heart disease who presented with shivering, fever, and confusion for two days, fourteen days after PCI. On further assessment, transesophageal echocardiography was done due to the patient’s fulfillment of 3 minor and 1 major of Duke's criteria. Flail posterior mitral valve leaflet of 1.1x0.60cm vegetation, and severe eccentric mitral regurgitation were observed in the transesophageal echocardiography.

Post PCI infective endocarditis is rare and missed diagnosis so it should be haven high suspension for those present with signs and symptoms compatible with infective endocarditis.

Behind the Concept of 'Zero Carbon Emissions' In Indonesia: a Symbolic Construction Analysis
Authors: Kusnadi Karen , Nur Ayu Siti
Published: October 2023

As one of the world's largest contributors to greenhouse gas emissions, Indonesia has set a target for zero carbon emissions by 2060. However, these targets and the derived efforts have not been accompanied by adequate understanding among the Indonesian populace. This research aims to comprehend and analyze the concept of zero carbon emissions in Indonesia. Employing a qualitative approach with content analysis methodology, the study discovered that one of the causes for this lack of understanding is the ineffective messaging concerning 'zero carbon emissions' in Indonesia. The symbolic constructs created do not align with the intended messages, in line with the recommendations for effective environmental communication concepts, encompassing aspects such as message types, functions, word choices, genres, relevance, and consistency. This research implies an enhancement in public awareness regarding the concept of zero carbon emissions in Indonesia. The outcomes of this study can also provide insights to the government and environmental organizations to formulate more effective policies in communicating the message of 'zero carbon emissions.' By implementing these recommendations, environmental communication regarding the concept of zero carbon emissions in Indonesia can become more effective, motivating individuals to actively participate in efforts to reduce carbon emissions.

Authors: Basak Gopal K. , Chakraborty Chandramauli , Das Pranab Kumar
Published: October 2023

The paper addresses the alternative policy options available to address the question of lives versus livelihood in an SIRD model augmented with a macroeconomic structure. An important contribution of the paper lies in designing the policy of lockdown dependent on the extent of the constraint on the health facilities. The paper supplements the literature with a less stringent version of the lockdown policy, viz. soft lockdown policy which is shown to be more attractive from a public policy standpoint and has actually been practised in many countries across the globe during the recent pandemic. Finally, the optimal policy derived on the basis of the level of lockdown and adjustment of the binding constraint on health facilities depends on the objective of policy makers contingent on the relative weights of lives versus livelihood.

Authors: Prihatsanti Unika , Kristiana Ika Febrian , Widayanti Costrie Ganes , Ahar Jordan Vegard , Karim Chamilul Hikam Al
Published: October 2023

Background: Voice behavior refers to the behavior that proactively communicates ideas, suggestions, attention, and information about organizational-related issues to promote organizational effectiveness. Employees are often reluctant to voice their thoughts out of fear of negative consequences, such as a threat to their career position and status quo. Study aims: To describe the factors influencing employees to voice their opinions. Method: 151 employees from various organizations voluntarily agreed to participate in this study (Xage=30.42, SDage: 7,683, Ma= 43.7%; F=56.3%) by filling out an open questionnaire on voice behavior. Data analysis was performed using NVivo 12 Plus. Result: Thematic analysis showed that four factors were evident: motivation, organization, individual, and situational. They served as inhibiting and supporting factors for voice behavior. Conclusion: There are four factors that motivate or inhibit employee voice behavior: motivational, organizational, situational, and personal. Aside from personal factors such as self-confidence and fear, the findings suggest that supervisors, workload, and opportunity can also both motivate and inhibit employees' voice behavior.
The clash in and for Ukraine | O conflito na e pela Ucrânia
Authors: Magalhães Joana
Published: October 2023

Hundreds of years of a troubled history turned Ukraine into a deeply divided country. Like almost all other Slavic nations, Ukraine has been adjusting and pushing towards more stable and reliable political and economic system after the collapse of the USSR. However, doing so triggered a revisit to the old bipolar system that many thought had been buried with the end of the Cold War. To which extent is it actually “old”? The ‘battle’ between East and West, the logic of a bipolar system has come to light. Ukraine is seen as one of the last strongholds of the Russian Federation to contain the advances of the West over the East. Russia has been exuding hints of a revived imperialism and a deep antagonism towards the western ‘incursion’ at their ex-socialist republics. Ukraine has been walking on a thin line, balancing their wishes with their neighbour’s ones. It stands for the yellow and blue of their flag, at least for now, or for how long they´ll be able to.

Critically Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa: a Short Review on the Mechanisms of Resistance and Therapeutic Strategies
Authors: Sowmyanarayan S. , Kavitha R.V.
Published: October 2023

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a critically resistant pathogen that is responsible for the morbidity of immunodeficient patients throughout the world. The bacterium possesses unique resistance to several antibiotics. Numerous resistance mechanisms like reliable efflux pumps, reduced permeability of the cell membrane, inactivation of antimicrobial drugs by enzymatic mechanisms and modification of antibiotic target sites enable the survival of the bacteria in adverse conditions. The causes and extent of antibiotic resistance in this bacterial species have been elucidated clearly. The ability of the pathogen to express several mutations in crucial genes makes it lethal. The everlasting threat of intrinsic as well as acquired antimicrobial resistance in common bacterial species is studied extensively to devise newer and effective therapeutics for the general public. Several studies have worked on the methods to deal with P. aeruginosa infections. The highest level of the newest antibiotics along with combinatorial therapy is administered to severely affected patients. Modern therapeutic strategies of bacteriophage therapy have been tested preclinically. The problem statement of curing P. aeruginosa infections thoroughly is yet to be resolved constructively.
The Potential of Leuconostoc mesenteroides Strain LK-151 to Inhibit in vivo Salmonella Infection
Authors: Bouguerra A. , Meziti A. , Guergour H. , Harzallah D.
Published: October 2023

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of the probiotic Leuconostoc mesenteroides strain LK-151 isolated from fermented camel milk against Salmonella infection in BALB/c mice. A total of 50 mice were divided into five groups of n = 10 per group and subjected to different treatments. Infecting mice with Salmonella led to a significant decrease in feed intake and body weight. This occurred simultaneously with the appearance of symptoms on day 3 of the infection with the recording of one death after 6 days. The pathogenic cells were detected at a high rate in the feces, which reached 7.045 Log10 CFU/g on day 7 post-infection. Histological studies revealed significant damage to the ileum and the liver. Whereas, administering mice with the probiotic strain for one week before being infected with S. Typhimurium avoided body weight loss, and feed intake was not affected. The probiotic was able to suppress the growth of the pathogen and offer protection to the ileum. However, localized congestion was noted in the liver of some mice. It was also found that giving the probiotic to the mice during the infection did not improve the tested parameters. It can be concluded that the strain under study has probiotic potential and can protect against Salmonella infection.
Investigation on LPBF Processability of an In-situ A6061 Matrix Composite
Authors: Rosito Michele , Vanzetti Matteo , Padovano Elisa , Gili Flavia , Dellacà Valentina , Tedesco Michele , Bondioli Federica , Badini Claudio
Published: October 2023

The interest in laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) has grown in the last decades because of the possibility to obtain near-net shapes parts with high performance. However, the main issue in this process is the limited availability of materials. For instance, A6061 alloy has a wide application range but it is hardly processable by L-PBF because of a severe solidification cracking. This critical issue can be overcome through the introduction of nucleants in the system, which induce an equiaxed solidification and avoid the solidification cracks. A6061 RAM2 is a mixture of A6061, Ti and B4C particles capable to react with each other to synthetise TiC and TiB2, grain refiners for Al alloys. A parameters optimization to produce dense samples was performed. Microstructural characterization of these specimens was carried out to investigate the evolution of the system in the processed material. Then, preliminary evaluation of mechanical properties was performed.
Insights on the Microstructural Characteristics Of WC-Co-Ru Cemented Carbides
Authors: de Oro Calderon Raquel , Steinlechner Robert , Schubert Wolf-Dieter
Published: October 2023

WC-Co cemented carbides alloyed with Ru are relevant for the hardmetal industry in spite of their high cost. These alloys are used in applications requiring very demanding thermal properties and good performance in aggressive and abrasive media. For some applications, it is difficult to find an alternative material that could offer a similar performance. WC-Co-Ru alloys are analysed in this work considering carbon contents covering the whole carbon window, and using an equivalent WC-Co alloy for comparison. Ru additions broaden the carbon window by increasing the solubility of W in the binder phase all over the carbon window. Thus, the addition of Ru modifies the chemical composition of the binder which has some slight effect on grain growth inhibition. However, the main factor determining the grain growth inhibition seems to be the carbon content, Ru playing only an indirect role.

Triage is a process to determine which patients should receive treatment first based on the severity of the injury or illness. In triage, patients are grouped into 6 categories, blue label, red label, yellow label, green label, white label, and black label. The highest priority is patients with emergency conditions accompanied by disturbances in the airway, breathing, circulation, which are labeled in blue. The second priority is patients with emergency conditions, which are labeled in red. The third priority is given to patients with minimal emergency conditions, which are labeled in yellow. The next priority is cases without emergencies, but if they are not treated immediately they will have a negative impact on the patient, which is labeled in green. The next priority is the white label given to patients whose conditions are not serious, not emergency, and do not require immediate treatment. Last priority is given to patients who died or had serious irreversible injuries who were labeled in black. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between the roles and attitudes of emergency room nurses and the implementation of triage based on priority. The research method used is descriptive correlational with cross sectional design. The results showed that the majority of the role of nurses was good with the implementation of triage as many as 25 people (65.8%), the majority of positive attitudes with the implementation of triage as many as 23 people (60.5%) and the majority carried out triage according to SOP as many as 30 people (78.9%) . The results of the study with the chi-square test p-value <0.05. In conclusion, there is a relationship between the role and attitude of the emergency room nurse and the implementation of triage based on priority.
Politisches Microtargeting vs. Rechtsaufsicht
Authors: Hammelsbeck Timo
Published: October 2023

In der letzten Woche ist bekannt geworden, dass die EU-Kommission, konkret der amtliche Account der Kommissarin für Inneres, Microtargeting auf X (vormals Twitter) nutzte, um Schwung in ein festgefahrenes Gesetzgebungsvorhaben zu bringen. Es handelt sich um eine gezielte Beeinflussung der gesellschaftlichen Debatte rund um die sogenannte „Kinderschutzverordnung“, auch bekannt als „Chatkontrolle“ durch datenbasierte Zielgruppenansprache (zur Berichterstattung und Analyse). Diese Posts sollten Druck auf mitgliedsstaatliche Regierungen ausüben, um doch noch eine Mehrheit für das Vorhaben zu beschaffen. Dieser Vorgang ist auch abseits der inhaltlichen Debatte um die „Chatkontrolle“ bemerkenswert, schließlich zeigt er neben den systemischen Risiken von Plattformen und dem Bedürfnis nach effektiver Durchsetzung von Plattformregulierung auf, dass die Kommission sich in einem Spannungsverhältnis der Funktionen als Aufsichtsbehörde und als politische Akteurin befindet und somit das systeminhärente Risiko besteht, dass sie ihre Funktion als Aufsichtsbehörde zugunsten politischer Ziele vernachlässigt.
Who Decides What Counts as Disinformation in the EU?
Authors: Peukert Alexander
Published: October 2023

Who decides what counts as “disinformation” in the EU? Not public authorities, because disinformation is not directly sanctioned in the Digital Service Act (DSA) or other secondary legislation. Nor Very Large Online Platforms (VLOPs) and Very Large Online Search Engines (VLOSes), which avoid editorial decisions to maintain their legal status as intermediaries with limited liability. Instead, the delicate task of identifying disinformation is being undertaken by other private organisations whose place of administration and activity, purpose, funding and organizational structure appear problematic in terms of the legitimacy and even legality of the fight against disinformation. This blog post maps out the relevant (private) actors, namely the ad industry, fact checking organizations and so-called source-raters.

Public procurement involves government spending for the well-being of the people. This study was carried out to observe the management of contracts implemented by procurement officers at the Ministry of Defense (Royal Malaysian Navy) for expenses related to asset and equipment maintenance used to maintain national maritime security for the well-being of the people. This study also attempts to examine the level of understanding of the procurement officers on pre-planning of asset maintenance contract procurement planning and financial planning, as well as whether or not the mechanism used is sufficient to monitor the contract compliances and contractors' obligations to comply with the terms of the contracts. A survey was initiated in April 2022 and lasted for five months. The questionnaires were distributed to the procurement officers handling the asset and equipment maintenance contract of the Ministry of Defense. A total of 206 questionnaires were returned and analyzed. Results revealed that the procurement officers understood that pre-planning process needs to be implemented before a procurement contract is signed; additionally, they believed that pre-planning process is not a requirement and that the mechanism used is a tool to prevent unethical misconduct in contract management. However, some respondents believed the mechanism could not prevent corruption. Therefore, it is suggested that the procurement officers be given disclosure not only on how to manage the procurement contract but also to ensure that the contract is implemented efficiently through pre-planning procurement. In addition, more improvements to the existing mechanism need to be made to increase procurement officers' trust in the existing system.

It analyzes the impact of the trade war on trade flows and sectoral adjustments. The conclusion states that the trade war has decreased trade between China and the US. China has established alternative partnerships with Brazil, Germany, Japan, Argentina, and the UK. Additionally, there has been a slight decline in the proportion of imported industrial goods. The long-term effects of the trade war on China’s import and export structure continue to evolve.
The Kelly Criterion: Optimizing Decision-Making in Risk Management
Authors: Andrew Chen
Published: October 2023

The Kelly capital growth investment criterion, or Kelly criterion, defines the fraction of wealth to invest in a favorable investment opportunity such that the exponential growth rate is maximized. Maximizing the exponential growth rate is equivalent to maximizing logarithmic utility.[1] It all began in the mid-20th century when John L. Kelly Jr., a researcher at Bell Labs, developed the criterion as a solution to a problem related to the efficient transmission of information in telecommunications. Kelly introduced the concept of the Kelly Criterion within his paper “A New Interpretation of Information Rate,” which he published in his early years. However, he did not refer to the Kelly Criterion by its now- known name. The Kelly Criterion initially gained recognition in academic and mathematical circles, primarily for its applications in information theory. Then, professional gamblers and investors started using the Kelly Criterion to manage their bankrolls and make more informed betting decisions. The financial industry also embraced the Kelly Criterion as an alternative approach to portfolio management and investment strategies. The Kelly Criterion gained further attention in investment circles, particularly in hedge funds and wealth management.
