Agricultura en la ciudad: Una ruta hacia la cultura del bienestar y de la sostenibilidad
Authors: Díaz Caamaño Adriana
Published: June 2024

La agricultura urbana es la actividad de cultivar y cosechar alimentos en la ciudad para garantizar el abastecimiento de su población: lo que en siglos pasados fue una práctica común alrededor de los asentamientos humanos ahora es una nueva tendencia para la sostenibilidad urbana. Actualmente el mundo enfrenta una crisis ambiental por la talla de las ciudades y su repercusión en el planeta, y una de las tantas repercusiones es una agricultura insostenible que realiza un encomiable esfuerzo para alimentar a una legión infinita de personas que poco conocen del campo y de sus efectos bonancibles para la salud mental y el bienestar de personas.

Published: June 2024

Este estudo objetiva identificar como o Nudge influencia a tomada de decisão do investidor em empresas com ESG (Environmental, social and Governance). Para isso, compreende-se que os aspectos financeiros e não-financeiros devem ser considerados nas decisões sobre investimento ao se avaliar uma empresa. Não obstante, acredita-se que os Nudges podem influenciar os tomadores de decisões na busca por investimentos que sejam sustentáveis e que tenham práticas de ESG. A metodologia quase-experimental proposta nesta pesquisa consiste na aplicação de um questionário, composto de dois ambientes de mercado, para uma população de 158 investidores. A pesquisa foi aprovada pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa (nº 5.246.628). Com base nestes cenários, foram feitas análises das escolhas de investimento dos participantes da pesquisa. Os resultados demonstram que na aplicação do Nudge, a tendência da maioria dos respondentes foi optar por investimentos em empresas com práticas ESG. Ademais, o modelo de regressão demonstra a existência de influência significativa em algumas variáveis, indicando maior probabilidade de escolha, em ambientes de Nudge, por investimentos mais sustentáveis e que possuem práticas ESG. Foi possível constatar que a presença do Nudge nas decisões de investimentos pode aumentar as chances de escolha por investimentos mais sustentáveis.
Re-Imagining Higher Education: Time, Learning, and Risk
Authors: Collins-Nelsen Rebecca , Hill Michaela , Maclachlan John
Published: June 2024

This article recommends institutional changes to higher education related to time, learning, and risk that would better serve the contemporary student population and increase opportunities for life-long and interdisciplinary learning. To begin, the changing demographic of university students will be outlined, along with suggestions about how traditional institutional arrangements are no longer conducive to optimal learning environments. Next, a review of the history of the academic year will be provided, that will show a snapshot of post-secondary academic calendars in Canada. Relatedly, a discussion of the potential drawbacks and benefits to accelerated courses will be deliberated, as well as the role of risk in terms of how this shapes students’ course selection. Finally, an example of a pilot program at McMaster University, a large research-intensive university in Ontario, Canada, which is specifically designed to account for the pitfalls outlined above, will be discussed. Taken together, it will be argued that having full-course offerings on a year-round basis, providing various options for course lengths, and adjusting evaluations to reduce students’ conceptions of ‘risk’ will better adapt institutes of higher education for the twenty-first century.

Immunoglobulin G (IgG) and Immunoglobulin E (IgE) Switching in Allergy and Microbial Interactions
Authors: Gaur Pratibha , Tripathi Shyam , Himanshi * , Rani Kusum , Raj V. Samuel
Published: June 2024

The immune system is crucial in defending the body against pathogens,
with, specifically immunoglobulins G (IgG) and immunoglobulins E (IgE),
playing key roles in immune defense and regulation. During infections, B
cells can undergo class switching to produce IgG antibodies recognize
specific epitopes on microbial antigens and enhance their phagocytosis
by immune cells like macrophages and neutrophils. They can engage in
opsonization, neutralization, and complement activation, all
contributing to the immune response against pathogens. During allergic
reactions, class switching of IgE takes place when B cells produce IgE
rather than other classes of antibodies. The choice between IgG and IgE
antibody production involves intricate regulatory mechanisms influenced
by factors such as the type of antigen encountered, the
microenvironment, and the presence of cytokines. IgG responses are
typically associated with effective microbial clearance and long-term
immune memory, while IgE responses are more relevant for defense against
parasites and are responsible for allergic disorders. Microbial
interactions within the gut can influence the balance between IgG and
IgE responses, potentially impacting susceptibility to both infections
and allergies. In conclusion, the balance between IgG and IgE responses
is essential for maintaining immune homeostasis and effective defense
against microbes. A deeper understanding of class-switching mechanisms
and factors influencing production is essential for developing
strategies to manage allergies and enhance immune responses against
infections. This review will focus on the advance research in this field
that holds promise for uncovering novel therapeutic approaches that
leverage the interplay between IgG, IgE, and microbial interactions.

A Tale of two Storms: Using Stable Water Isotopes to Investigate Hydrological Processes Under a Changing Climate
Authors: Grande Emilio , Moran Jean
Published: June 2024

Stable isotopic methods in hydroclimate monitoring are powerful for
improving water resources management, but applications are limited,
especially in semi-arid regions where such management is needed most. In
this study, we show that we can address shortcomings related to lack of
a seasonal signal using stable water isotopic signatures measured over
the eastern San Francisco Bay Area of California during two contrasting
events. We use hydrometric data from a gauged watershed in the study
area and isotopic signatures of rain sampled at more than 20 locations
during two contrasting storm events (Winter Storm Olive in February,
2023 and a warmer atmospheric river event in March 2023), and apply a
solute transport model with a travel-time approach to examine predicted
watershed responses and potential water tracing applications. The
observed range in δ O in the rain samples is similar
for both storms, about 5‰. However, the distributions do not overlap –
the mean air temperature during Olive was about 2 C,
and the mean δ O of the rain samples is -12‰, while
the AR event had a mean temperature of about 9 C and
a mean δ O of -6‰, close to the long-term average δ
O measured in local precipitation. In the model
results, event size exerts a strong control on the relative amounts of
runoff vs pre-event water in the stream, while uncertainty in stream
hydrograph separation is related to the degree of contrast between
precipitation/runoff and pre-event water. Key to flood prediction,
adaptation and mitigation, especially in coastal urban areas, is
knowledge of the contributing water sources and timing of flows in
streams and other features susceptible to flooding. The strong contrast
in stable isotopes between these two events over the same area,
illustrates the potential to use stable isotope signatures to track the
transport and mixing of event water through natural and engineered
watersheds.
A protection scheme based on dual criterion of active injection and virtual voltage for distribution network line with T-connected distributed photovoltaic and load
Authors: Li Bin , Zhao Ruifeng , Lu Jiangang , Li Haobin , Qiu Junqi , Chen Qizhan
Published: June 2024

This paper firstly analyses the fault equivalent circuit of DG(
Distributed Generation) as a high-frequency harmonic source, and then
deduces the fault characteristics of the electrical quantities at both
ends on the basis of high-frequency harmonic injection, pointing out the
weaknesses: easily affected by the load capacity of the T-connected
load. Afterwards, this paper draws the equivalent circuit diagram of the
positive sequence component after the fault and derives the difference
expression of the virtual electrical quantity at the opposite end under
internal or external faults at different locations, and then analyses
the fault characteristics of positive sequence under the industrial
frequency. On this basis, this paper proposes a double-terminal
protection scheme based on the combination of high-frequency harmonic
injection and virtual positive sequence differential principle. Finally,
the protection scheme is verified on the MATLAB/SIMULINK platform that
it is not affected by the type of fault, transition resistance, location
of the fault and capacity of T-connected load.

Authors: K Menka
Published: June 2024

Oncocytic sinonasal papilloma, also known as oncocytoma or oncocytic Schneiderian papilloma is a rare benign tumor that typically arises from the Schneiderian epithelium lining the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. There are three types of papillomas, of which oncocytic papillomas are the least common. It constitutes 3–5% of all the papilloma cases. Here we present a rare case report of a patient who was an 85-year-old female presented with shortness of breath and a slight obstruction in the nasal cavity, which she felt on the right side. She was examined clinically as sinonasal mass. A CT scan was performed, and surgical excision was suggested. After surgical removal tissue was sent for histopathological evaluation and a diagnosis of oncocytic papilloma was made.

The use of rubber crumb from used tires in concrete as a partial replacement of natural aggregates is an ecologically oriented direction of their utilization. When rubber crumb was added to Portland cement, a decrease in strength was observed. Modification of rubber-containing Portland cement systems with a complex organic and mineral additive makes it possible to compensate for the loss of compressive strength and provide increased impact strength. Samples without rubber show high strength but are characterized by fragility and sudden destruction of the material. Samples containing rubber show relatively low mechanical resistance but also exhibit elastic behavior where slow fragmentation and slow failure of the material after crack initiation are observed. They also are characterized by additional load resistance after reaching the failure stress, which is associated with the bridging effect of rubber particles.

The article presents the results of a comparison of the stability of the structural elements of the underground parking lot of an erected multistory civil building. The results of calculation of structural load-bearing elements (monolithic floor slab and pylons) to the impact of an explosion in the Lira CAD software with consideration of the requirements of the state Building standards of Ukraine are presented. It is shown that an increase in the instantaneous load of explosive pressure from 20 kPa (DBN B.2.2-5-97) to 100 kPa (DBN B.2.2-5:2023) will increase the maximum displacement of a monolithic floor slab by 11.9 times and the maximum reinforcement section by 5.8 times. This creates a real opportunity to develop new approaches to the planning of civil protection buildings and structures to ensure their operational reliability and resistance to the effects of an explosion.

The article considers the implementation of methods for optimizing underground external engineering networks in order to reduce construction costs. For this purpose, the problem of optimizing the route of such networks is set in the form of a nonlinear programming problem. The route is modeled by a spatial polyline with rectilinear segments, and the coordinates of its vertices are considered design variables. The ground surface in the designated area is modeled as a continuous function of two coordinates in the plan using BIM technologies, which ensures the automated use of topographic information when calculating the volume of earthworks and checking compliance with constraints specified by standards requirements. The main result of the study is the formulation of the problem of optimizing the route of the engineering network taking into account the terrain.
Suspected Case of Histoplasmosis-Related Immune Reconstitution Inflammatory Syndrome Manifesting as Unilateral Pleural Effusion
Authors: Do Van Anh , Khattak Raihaan , Kropf Jacqueline , Couto Patricia , Carlan Steve J.
Published: June 2024

Background: Histoplasmosis is a prevalent endemic mycosis that frequently causes opportunistic infections among individuals living with HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). The initiation of antiretroviral therapy (ART) can result in a rare histoplasma-associated immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) that may be difficult to distinguish between active progressive disease and inflammatory reaction to the medication.
Case report: A 35-year-old male with newly diagnosed HIV and cervical biopsy-confirmed histoplasmosis was admitted from the emergency department with disseminated histoplasmosis for HIV antiretroviral treatment and antifungal treatment. Discharged after a 2-week inpatient treatment the patient returned 1 week later with a large left pleural effusion. Two liters of serosanguinous fluid were removed and all fluid cultures and cytology were negative. An extensive work-up remained negative, and given the timeline of presentation in relation to the initiation of ART, it was felt that this isolated left-sided pleural effusion was a manifestation of IRIS. Eventually, corticosteroids were given for IRIS and the patient improved and was discharged on long-term treatment.
Conclusions: Immunocompromised subjects are at serious risk for a virulent, aggressive, rapidly advancing histoplasma infection and should be counselled accordingly. Any clinical signs or symptoms of organ system deterioration or compromise should be reported to the provider and a workup for histoplasmosis considered. In patients treated with antiretrovirals, IRIS is particularly confounding since it is difficult to differentiate from active disease. Using corticosteroids in already immunocompromised patients with an established fungal infection requires caution. Compliance with treatment is one of the most important components of care, especially considering the months of protocol.
Examining Farmer and Seed Construction in the Context of Seed Policy: A Social Constructionist Perspective
Authors: Wulandari Catur , Amaliyah Anita
Published: June 2024

The role of crop seeds extends beyond the essential task of achieving food security and is embedded in technical, social, economic, and political debates. The character of seeds and their association with farmers has transformed, influenced by social constructs embedded within policies. This research endeavors to scrutinize the impact of the social construction of farmers and seeds within national policies on their respective roles at the grassroots level. The foundational premise of this approach posits that the social construction of the target demographic significantly shapes the perspectives of public officials, thereby influencing agendas and policy formulations. Employing a qualitative methodology, this study entails the analysis of both secondary data, encompassing national seed policies, and primary data acquired through the Seed Self-Reliant Village initiative in Ngasin Village. The findings elucidate a negative construction of smallholder farmers, depicting them as lacking influence, while seeds are portrayed as integral production materials geared towards augmenting productivity. At the local level, knowledge pertaining to seeds is cultivated based on productivity criteria, delineating the appropriateness of seeds for dissemination. This research contributes valuable insights to the realm of public policy analysis, underscoring the infrequently utilized yet potent social construction approach.

Litfaßsäule 4.0 – Ein integrierter Ansatz in der Krisenkommunikation
Authors: Schulze Joachim , Rudolph-Cleff Annette
Published: June 2024

Corona-Pandemie, Krieg in der Ukraine, Energieknappheit, Klimawandel. Die Liste der Krisen ist lang und hat zu einer Renaissance des Bevölkerungsschutzes geführt, der nach dem Ende des Kalten Krieges zunehmend aus dem öffentlichen Bewusstsein verschwunden war. Heute ist das Thema Sicherheit allgegenwärtig. Der aktuelle Ausbau der Warninfrastruktur durch Warn-Apps oder Cell Broadcast und die Einführung des nationalen Warntages sind nur einige Beispiele für das Bestreben von Bund und Ländern, sich für aktuelle und zukünftige Krisen zu wappnen. Ballungsräume stellen eine besondere Herausforderung für die Sicherheit dar. Die hohe Bevölkerungsdichte und die Konzentration von Gebäuden und Infrastruktur erfordern im urbanen Kontext andere Ansätze als im ländlichen Raum. Das LOEWE-Zentrum emergenCITY an der TU Darmstadt beschäftigt sich mit dem Thema Sicherheit durch Krisenkommunikation in Städten. Am Beispiel der Forschungskooperation „Litfaßsäule 4.0“ wird aufgezeigt, wie eine kontextbezogene und integrative Krisenkommunikation aussehen kann, die gleichzeitig integraler Bestandteil des Stadtbildes ist. Im Mittelpunkt der Forschung und Entwicklung steht die Frage, wie weit das Streben nach Sicherheit den öffentlichen Raum und das alltägliche Lebensumfeld belasten darf. Am Beispiel der Litfaßsäule 4.0 wird deutlich, wie selbstverständlich integraler Katastrophenschutz im urbanen Raum aussehen kann.
The Psychological Impacts of Familial Distance and War in Maaza Mengiste’s Beneath the Lion’s Gaze and Inam Kachachi’s Tashari
Authors: Ayad Ali Al-Fahham Samer , Saad Mohammed Sulaiman Sarmad
Published: June 2024

Geographical movement has always had a significant impact on human life; it can be brought about by conflicts, wars, or other social or economic circumstances. Nostalgia emerges as a key factor, and the loss of home is portrayed as a significant disturbance for both physical and mental health. This study explores the impact of geographical movement on family relationships, particularly those caused by war. It examines how war can cause suffering by forcing displacement and emotional removal of people. The study depicts literary works like Maaza Mengiste’s Beneath the Lion’s Gaze (2010) and Inam Kachachi’s Tashari (2022), as they focus on familial relationships amidst socio-political upheaval. The main question of this study is what is the impact of personal or geographical displacement on civilians during war? Thus, it contends that disruptions in essential place relationships can lead to psychological disorders, highlighting the interconnectedness of attachment to people and places. Drawing from Mindy Thompson Fullilove’s insights, the study underscores the significance of a sense of place for human well-being. The literature reveals psychological challenges faced by those who are forced out of their lives due to war. It shows the correlation between displacement and mental distress
Is “Conservation in Ruin” Always the Best Solution? The Case of the Romanesque Church in Gârbova
Authors: RUS-CACOVEAN Ioana
Published: June 2024

Is “Conservation in Ruin” Always the Best Solution? The Case of the Romanesque Church in Gârbova. As the leading institution in charge of built heritage protection in Romania after 1952, the Directorate of Historical Monuments (DHM) took essential steps in funding, designing, and conducting various conservation works on sites endangered by earthquakes, looting, improper use, or defective historic restorations. Partially demolished by the local community in the previous centuries and seriously affected by neglect, the Romanesque Lutheran church in Gârbova, Alba County, was in the 1960s on the verge of collapse. After a thorough cause analysis, the DHM managed to prevent disaster by undertaking a rescue intervention in line with the international trends of the time. Thus, the site became one of the first DHM projects to design the preservation of a church in a state of ruin rather than its complete reconstruction. Part of our more extensive research on Transylvanian heritage conservation during the Communist regime of the 20th century and based on previously unpublished information found in the archives of the National Heritage Institute, our study aims at showing that despite DHM’s best intentions, the church lost the chance to be more than a romantic ruin to these days. By rigidly applying the international restoration principles, the Directorate disregarded the parishioners’ will, even though this was one of the very few examples where the owner was still interested in the monument and even suggested its adaptive reuse as a funerary chapel due to its location in the village graveyard.

Authors: Yamin Ahmad , Lukman Mamat , Mulya Adelse Prima
Published: June 2024

Health issues such as diarrhea or worm infections are related to personal hygiene and environmental cleanliness. One contributing factor is handwashing habits. Handwashing is a crucial component of personal hygiene because the consequences of not washing hands can lead to health problems related to the digestive system (diarrhea, worm infections, hepatitis, typhoid, etc.). The objective of this health education is to assess its influence on the knowledge of personal hygiene and handwashing practices among elementary school children at SD Mekasari Sayang in Sumedang district. The implementation method of health education involves using video and poster presentations, lectures, discussions, demonstrations, and simulations with 25 first-grade students of SDN Mekarsari conducted directly. Data analysis utilizes pre-post test design with Wilcoxon statistical testing to identify the significance of differences before and after the health education intervention. The results of the activity demonstrate differences in knowledge and handwashing practices before and after health education using film, posters, discussion, simulation, and demonstration methods (p-value < 0.05). The conclusion drawn from this health education is an improvement in students' knowledge and practices after the intervention. It is hoped that students' awareness and habits regarding personal hygiene behavior will increase, thereby preventing various health problems (diseases) that may arise. Keywords: Personal Hygiene, health education, handwashing, elementary school students.

Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis proses penentuan Daerah Penangkapan Ikan (DPI), menjelaskan hasil observasi suhu dan salinitas perairan di setiap DPI yang telah ditentukan, serta mengidentifikasi jenis hasil tangkapan, dengan menggunakan Kapal Motor (KM) Tirta Putra Kencana I (alat tangkap purse seine). Penelitian ini dilakukan di perairan Laut Jawa dan di Selat Makasar, mulai dari bulan Desember tahun 2022 hingga bulan April 2023. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah observasi langsung dan dianalisis menggunakan analisis deskriptif. Data primer diperoleh melalui observasi langsung di lapangan, termasuk kegiatan penentuan DPI dan pengukuran suhu, serta salinitas di setiap lokasi DPI. Penentuan DPI dilakukan dengan mempertimbangkan beberapa syarat, seperti wilayah perizinan penangkapan ikan, ketidakgangguan terhadap pelayaran niaga, kondisi perairan yang aman, dan minim pengaruh cuaca buruk pada daerah tersebut. Hasil pengukuran suhu dan salinitas menunjukkan bahwa rata-rata perairan Laut Jawa dan Selat Makassar memiliki karakteristik yang serupa. Namun, DPI yang berdekatan dengan daratan menunjukkan suhu yang lebih rendah dan kadar salinitas yang lebih tinggi. Jenis hasil tangkapan didominasi oleh ikan layang (Decapterus macrosoma dan Decapterus russelli) yang mendiami perairan laut lepas, diikuti oleh ikan siro (Sardinella sp.) yang ditemui di wilayah pantai. Komoditas ikan pelagis besar lebih cenderung tertangkap di wilayah penangkapan di sebelah barat.

In the paper, the results of a numerical analysis of KCl and KF particles present in liquid aluminium assimilation to the slag are presented. The authors analysed particle movement in the slag model, which is based on buoyant, capillary, viscosity, Newton and repulsion forces, interfacial tensions at the interface of phases and surface energy during the particle movement through phases boundary. On the basis of the mathematical model, a computer programme was written to make simulations under different conditions. The results of particle position in the slag are presented for different particle radiuses: 1, 5, 10, 20 μm, and constant viscosity of the slag including velocity evolution of the velocity. Another approach was used to indicate the influence of slag viscosity on particle and slag penetration depth. During computations, selected viscosities of slag of 0.0012, 0.0015, 0.0018 [kg/m·s] were taken into account. Different comparisons were made for the chosen particle sizes. Each examination takes into account the impact of the particle type. The results clearly show that for larger particles the penetration depth is greater and viscosity of the slag has an impact on the velocity evolution during assimilation process.

The application of some natural compounds and cold storage can reduce postharvest loss and improve fruit quality and storability, which increase the fruit marketing period and exportation to distant markets. This study investigated the effectiveness of using coatings based on natural polymers to prolong the shelf life of fruits and protect their tissues from damage. Specifically, the researchers examined the impact of putrescine (PUT), chitosan (CTS) and chitosan–putrescine nano-composites (CTS-PUT NPs) on preserving the quality and reducing decay in strawberry. Strawberries were treated with either 1 mM or 2 mM of PUT, 0.1% CTS, 0.1% CTS-PUT NPs or distilled water at a temperature of 20°C for 5 min and then stored at 4°C for 12 days. At the end of the storage period, the lowest decay percentage was related to the treatments of CTS-PUT NPs and CTS, and the highest was observed in the control. The results showed that all coating treatments effectively prevented the excessive loss of ascorbic acid, fruit firmness, total soluble solids (TSS), and acidity (TA) compared to control at the end of the storage period. Additionally, strawberries treated with CTS-PUT NPs and CTS demonstrated the highest levels of total anthocyanin and total flavonoid. Antioxidant enzyme activities containing CAT and SOD were preserved at higher levels in treated strawberries than in the control during cold storage. These results confirm that the application of CTS and CTS-PUT NPs can effectively preserve fruit quality and prolong the longevity of strawberries during cold storage by enhancing their antioxidant capacity and scavenging free radicals.
