Concurrent transarterial radioembolization and combination atezolizumab/ bevacizumab treatment of infiltrative hepatocellular carcinoma with portal vein tumor thrombosis: a case report
Authors: Park Min Kyung , Yu Su Jong
Published: March 2022

Treatment options for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have been rapidly evolving. Herein, we describe a patient with advanced HCC and portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) who responded decisively to a multidisciplinary approach. The patient had an ill-defined infiltrative HCC (diffuse subtype), with several intrahepatic metastasis and tumor invasion of left portal vein. Concurrent use of transarterial radioembolization (TARE) and systemic therapeutics (atezolizumab + bevacizumab) ultimately proved successful. There was marked reduction in tumor volume after TARE and an additional three cycles of atezolizumab plus bevacizumab. This concurrent treatment was well tolerated, without adverse events during immunotherapy. The impressive results achieved suggest that concurrent TARE and combination atezolizumab/bevacizumab is a promising treatment approach for advanced HCC with PVTT.

Estándar del inversor prudente y confianza legítima
Authors: Revuelta Pérez Inmaculada
Published: March 2022

El trabajo analiza el conflicto planteado por las reformas del régimen retributivo de la electricidad renovable desde la perspectiva del principio de protección de la confianza del derecho de la Unión Europea. Se detiene en la jurisprudencia del Tribunal de Justicia sobre el alcance de dicho principio en el ámbito normativo; en especial, en el criterio del «operador económico prudente y diligente». El análisis identifica carencias en la jurisprudencia de los tribunales españoles («riesgo regulatorio»), como la errónea aplicación del estándar del inversor prudente, o la falta de ponderación del interés de la Unión.

De-Regulation of Electricity Industry: A Malaysian Perspective
Authors: Sibeperegasam Mahesvaran , Ramachandaramurthy Vigna K. , Li Furong , Walker Sara
Published: March 2022

The Malaysian electricity industry has gone through an evolution over the years from vertically integrated utility into a single buyer market model currently. Many countries have de-regulated their electricity industry to increase efficiency and to introduce electricity price competitiveness. It is a natural path for any developing country like Malaysia to evolve into a fully functional market with complementary commercial instruments, such as whole-sale, balance, and network access arrangements. However, Malaysia must take the right path in pursuing de-regulation through energy market, thus ensuring a smooth transition from regulated into de-regulated electricity industry. This paper analyzed the energy market operation of three different countries. The analysis was based on the drivers for regulation, how the de-regulation was introduced to the vertically integrated system, the market model and the structure. From the comparative analysis, the hybrid model which combines single buyer model and pool market seems to be the potential approach for Malaysia in its path to de-regulation.
Feedback Control Design for VCM
Authors: Liaw Der-Cherng , Tsai Li-Feng , Chen Jun-Wei
Published: March 2022

A design of PD feedback control law for a class of the second order system to satisfy the desired performance requirements is presented. It is achieved by using root-locus approach. The desired specifications of the step-input system response are first transformed into a required region for the poles of the PD control closed-loop system. Ranges of the corresponding PD control gains are then derived to guarantee the poles of the closed-loop system lie within the targeted region. Besides, the proposed control law is also applied to the feedback control of Voice Coil Motor (VCM) to support the function of the so-called “Optical Image Stabilization (OIS).” Numerical results by using a referenced VCM model have demonstrated the success of the proposed design.

Authors: Sorachampa Phoutthavanh , Tippayawong Nakorn , Ngamsanroaj Kanchit
Published: March 2022

Hydropower is one of the most significant renewable energy resources, especially for mountainous countries like Laos PDR. Expansion and development of many hydropower projects in the country have presented a challenge to the operation of multiple reservoir system. Nam Ngum river was the focus of this work, where there are two or more cascading reservoirs. Optimal operation of such system is of interest, with the main goal of maximizing power generation. A multi-objective Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) was adopted in this study, applying to two cascading reservoirs of Nam Ngum 1 and 2 hydropower plants. It was demonstrated that increases in hydroelectric power generation could be realized for all cases of normal, dry and wet years, compared to the traditional actual operation of the hydropower plant system. Similar approach may be adopted to assess opportunities in other water management problems.

Authors: Liu Gang , Mei Dou , Zhang Jialin
Published: March 2022

During well drilling operations of offshore oil and gas exploration, the progress that bit drills through rocks, steel casing and other mediums produces vibration signal with different characteristics. In this work, we presented a wellbore collision monitoring method that using vibration signal produced by bit penetrating in different drilling mediums to identify those unwanted cases that bit is colliding into adjacent wellbores in drilling operation. Firstly, experiments have been carried out to acquire vibration signal of bit drilling in sorts of rock, cement and steel casing mediums. Then, to dig out signal feature in different time scales, empirical mode decomposition (EMD) method was used to decompose every signal sample into several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) and we extracted and analyzed characteristics in time and frequency domain of all signal IMFs. Finally, support vector machine classifiers were trained with feature vectors of a part of signal IMFs to realize the function of drilling mediums identification and classification. SVM Performance test results indicates that correct identification rate of those classifiers can basically reach 90%. The method presented in this paper proved to be feasible to provide a new approach to monitor wellbore collision risks for offshore drillings.

Sometimes information needs to be interactive and informative for people to be able to understand and catch the meaning or comprehension of it which is written in booklets, course materials or topics discussed through social media or classroom. Portion of multimedia elements that make information so valuable and accepted by students or a society is the one we called image, an important element that mainly acts as a communication line for transferring information. For better conveying, users or students usually change and modify an original image into a good quality image through image processing. Even in Electrical Engineering field image takes an important role because it used to represent a device, network, tool, component or system in brief description. A good and informative image facilitates the development of knowledge, clear information and supple communication. The idea is about informative image that merely focuses on parts of an image that need to be emphasized and showed to the audiences. This paper is conducted a research to create an informative image using three features: brightness, contrast, and picture effect. The research methodology is literature study, practice experience, and image processing method. The output gives a positive outcome and could help people to improve their skills in designing or editing a new excellent apparent of image for the purpose of information and communication.

Authors: Panayotova Galina S. , Dimitrov Dimitar A.
Published: March 2022

Signals obtained from most of real-world systems, especially from living organisms, are irregular, often chaotic, non-stationary, and noise-corrupted. Since modern measuring devices usually realize digital processing of information, recordings of the signals take the form of a discrete sequence of samples (a time series). In the paper given a brief overview of the possibilities of such experimental data processing based on reconstruction and usage of a predictive empirical model of a time series. Brain signals can be recorded by brainwave controlled applications, such as EMotiv Epoc +14. The paper investigates the models of the observed brain signals using time series, analyzes their applicability and develops new statistical models for their study.
Raḍā’ah in Islamic Psychological Perspective
Authors: Hasanusi Harmathilda
Published: March 2022

This paper studied Islam & Psychology’s view of the concept of raḍā’ah, which has been proven to provide many benefits. There are 28 verses in the Qur’an that discuss raḍā’ah. In general, this is seen as a natural female activity with children. Accordingly, the command for mothers to breastfeed their children is stated in surah Al-Baqarah (2) Verse 233. Similarly, Surah At-Talaq (65) verse 6 also explains the importance of breastfeeding, which, even if forced to be breastfed by others, is allowed by giving money to the breastfeeding mother. ASI (breast milk) is the best food that contains all the nutrients needed by 0 - 6 months old babies. It directly affects the baby's growth, including mental and emotional development, through the bonding between mother and child when breastfeeding. Lack of attachment between mother and baby may lead to mental-emotional disorders that hinder the child’s development. Breast milk contains immunological substances. Packaged milk actually contains bacteria as a result of processing and packaging that can be harmful to a baby’s health. Breastfeeding also increases children’s intelligence courtesy of the nutritional content of breast milk, the direct method of giving from the mother's touch to the baby, as well as the duration of breastfeeding.

Key Considerations: Adherence to COVID-19 Preventive Measures in Greater Kampala, Uganda
Authors: Jones Theresa , Storer Elisabeth
Published: March 2022

This brief sets out key considerations for risk communications and community engagement (RCCE) to promote adherence to COVID-19 preventive measures in greater Kampala, Uganda. It looks at adherence to COVID-19 preventive measures, assesses the challenges to their adoption and outlines key considerations for partners working in RCCE and the wider COVID-19 emergency response. The brief responds to concern (as of March 2022) about COVID-19 transmission in informal urban areas in Uganda due to their high population density, limited sanitary infrastructure, and reported low uptake of vaccination. Ensuring effective communication and engagement with a series of preventative measures is essential in limiting the spread of COVID-19. The Ministry of Health and response partners have been proactive, however interventions and guidance for COVID-19 have taken limited account of social science research about the perceptions and practices related to COVID-19 regulations. This brief aims to address this gap so these data may be used to inform more effective and practicable guidance for vulnerable groups. This brief draws primarily on an analysis of existing scientific and grey literature. Additional primary data was collected through consultation with six social science and RCCE experts who focus on this geographical area. The brief was requested by UNICEF Uganda in consultation with the Uganda Ministry of Health (MoH) RCCE subcommittee and the RCCE technical working group for the Eastern and South Africa region (ESAR). It was developed for SSHAP by Theresa Jones (Anthrologica) and supported by Elizabeth Storer (London School of Economics), with contributions and reviews by colleagues at Anthrologica, the Institute of Development Studies (IDS), UNICEF ESARO and Uganda, Makerere University, the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM), Dreamline Products and the IFRC.
Advances in dairy protein science: whey proteins
Authors:   Victoria University, Australia, Bogahawaththa Dimuthu , Vasiljevic Todor ,   Victoria University, Australia
Published: March 2022

Whey proteins are highly nutritious and commercially important proteins from the serum phase of milk. Amino acid profile, digestion and absorption behavior in the gut in addition to various physical functionalities make them a highly sought after protein group in broad range of commercial applications. However, their application is hindered by their inherent instability upon exposure to extrinsic stressors, mainly heat. Their stability can be improved by applying various approaches including physical, chemical and enzymatic with various success. The following pages will cover briefly properties of main whey proteins and their denaturation and aggregation kinetics, impact of shear on whey protein behavior during denaturation and aggregation and impact on their functionality. The special emphasis is given to creation of Pickering type of stabilisers and their application in stabilisation of emulsions and foam.
Dietary factors affecting the composition of cow’s milk
Authors:   Agriculture Victoria Research, Australia, Auldist Martin
Published: March 2022

The ability to change milk composition via cow diet can lead to increases in the yield and functional properties of dairy products. Inducing such changes via diet can lead to more rapid and reversible changes to milk composition than other contributing factors . However, some components are more readily changed than others. Milk fat, for example, is readily altered by changing the forage:concentrate ratio or by feeding oilseeds containing high levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids. Such changes can improve the yields, functional properties and perceived healthiness of butter and other products. Similarly, the mineral composition can be altered by supplementation, which has implications for product functionality and human health. Unfortunately alterations of the amount and type of milk protein are difficult to achieve via dietary manipulation. Maintaining an adequate supply of metabolisable energy to ensure maximum protein concentrations is probably the only reliable strategy in this regard.
Understanding the contribution of milk constituents to the texture of dairy products: fermented products
Authors:   Technische Universität Dresden, Germany, Surber Georg , Rohm Harald ,   Technische Universität Dresden, Germany, Jaros Doris ,   Technische Universität Dresden, Germany
Published: March 2022

This chapter discusses the impact of the main milk components protein, fat and lactose on the texture of fermented milk. It is the three-dimensional protein network formed upon microbial acidification, which primarily dominates the properties of the final milk gel. Main factors of influence are the type and amount of protein used for fortification of the base milk, but also interactions between the different constituents. To make the picture complete manufacturing conditions and processing steps such as homogenisation, heating intensity and the application of mechanical stress affect texture and need to be considered. Finally, hydrocolloids or texturising starter cultures are important tools that contribute to the highly complex issue of texture. A short case study summarises the challenges of finding unambiguous data on the relationship between product texture and specific properties of extracellular polysaccharides.

Authors:   Institute of Geology FRC Komi SC UB RAS, Grakova O.V.
Published: March 2022

Hypotheses of the origin of diamonds, lithological, petrographic, mineralogical and geochemical features of diamond-bearing deposits of the Middle and South Timan are considered. A comparative analysis of two spatially separated, but similar in age, diamond-bearing deposits of the Middle and South Timan was carried out, and new data were obtained on the conditions of formation of these rocks. It has been established that the ancient Timan placers were formed due to erosion of the underlying strata, igneous rocks, mainly products of platform magmatism: acidic alkaline rocks, alkaline metaultrabasites, carbonatites, and also metamorphic rocks. Possibly, participation in sedimentation of material from secondary reservoirs. The book is of interest to specialists engaged in prospecting for diamonds, as well as carrying out research in the field of mineralogy and regional geology.

Invecchiare con la terapia antiretrovirale o essere anziani in terapia antiretrovirale: due profili di comorbidità differenti?
Authors: Zollo Verdiana , al. et
Published: March 2022

Nelle persone che vivono con HIV (PLWH), il peso delle patologie corniche non trasmissibili è aumentato nel tempo, a causa dell’invecchiamento legato a una maggiore sopravvivenza, all’infiammazione cronica, all’attivazione del sistema immunitario, e all’esposizione a lungo termine alla terapia antiretrovirale (ART). L’età anagrafica, quella alla diagnosi di infezione da HIV, e l’esposizione alla ART sono fattori che possono esercitare un effetto sulle differenze sia qualitative che quantitative tra le comorbidità.
Per esplorare questa ipotesi, abbiamo valutato la prevalenza di alcune patologie selezionate nei pazienti arruolati nel progetto SCOLTA, per gruppi di età (50-59 e ≥60 anni) e durata della ART.
In 1336 soggetti (23.9% donne), la durata della ART era simile tra gruppi di età, sia considerata in continuo (p=0.85) che in categorie (p=0.88). Come atteso, le comorbidità e la multimorbidità erano meno frequenti nel gruppo 50-59 che in quello ≥60 anni.
Gli odds ratios (ORs) aggiustati per sesso ed età hanno mostrato che, nella categoria 50-59, si rilevava un aumento di rischio significativo e coerente in categorie di durata della ART, per le malattie cardiovascolari (CVD) (ORs da 1.68 a 2.18), dislipidemia (ORs da 3.61 a 9.08) e osteopenia/osteoporosi (ORs da 3.74 a 6.23). Di conseguenza, anche il rischio di multimorbidità aumentava attraverso le classi di durata della ART (ORs da 2.04 a 4.40). Nel gruppo ≥60 anni, il rischio CVD era significativamente più elevato solo nei pazienti con durata della ART ≥20 anni (OR 2.61, 95% intervallo di confidenza al 95% 1.22-5.58, categoria di riferimento ≤6 mesi). L’aumento di dislipidemia e multimorbidità era coerentemente associato con una maggiore durata della ART.
In conclusione, l’età anagrafica, quella alla diagnosi di infezione da HIV, e l’esposizione alla ART sono associate alla multi-morbidità nelle PLWH.
Conseguenze della COVID-19 e delle misure di lockdown tra le persone che vivono con HIV in Italia.
Authors: Ranzani Alice , al. et
Published: March 2022

È stata realizzata un’intervista per indagare le conseguenze della COVID-19 sui pazienti HIV-positivi durante la prima ondata pandemica. L’intervista è stata realizzata presso l’ambulatorio di Malattie Infettive dell’Ospedale San Gerardo di Monza tra maggio e settembre 2020. I pazienti sono stati sottoposti ad un’intervista che includeva domande sull’impatto di COVID-19 dal punto di vista personale, economico e dell’accesso alle cure. Abbiamo inoltre indagato la presenza di fattori di rischio che favorivano l’interruzione della ART e un rebound della carica virale. Sono stati intervistati 243 pazienti (76.5% uomini, 81% Italiani, 27.1% MSM, 21.4% >60 anni). Quattro (1.6%) avevano ricevuto una diagnosi di COVID-19 con conferma microbiologica, 18 (7.4%) avevano manifestato sintomi compatibili ma non avevano effettuato tampone nasofaringeo. Tredici avevano perso un familiare a causa di COVID-19; 1 su 5 riferiva importanti perdite economiche e 1 su 4 stress psicologico. Due terzi dei pazienti avevano dovuto posporre le visite di controllo per l’infezione da HIV e 21 riferivano problematiche di salute che non era stato possibile gestire durante il periodo di lockdown.  Ventidue pazienti hanno riferito un’aderenza subottimale alla ART e per 6 è stata documentata una carica virale >50 cp/ml; i pazienti di origine non italiana presentavano un rischio aumentato di interrompere la ART (19.6% vs. 2%; p<0.001) e di fallimento virologico (8.7% vs. 1%; p<0.001). Le misure di contenimento del COVID-19 hanno avuto quindi effetti indiretti sul benessere delle persone HIV-positive; la stessa epidemia può rappresentare un’occasione per riflettere su possibili nuovi modelli di gestione delle cure.

Common rules for the internal market in natural gas and the principle of energy solidarity
Authors: Mengozzzi Pieralberto
Published: March 2022

The author (a) analyses the way in which first the General Court and then the Court of Justice, with reference to an appeal by Poland against a decision of the Commission concerning the energy sector, have ruled on the relationship between the general principle of solidarity and that of energy solidarity, (b) points out, in this respect, the reasons why the Court’s ruling, despite the appearance resulting from a brief point of it, should be understood as meaning that the Commission’s decision was in- compatible with the principle of energy solidarity. In addition to these observations, he points out that the Court, in its judgment, (a) concretely shared the opinion contained in the Advocate General’s Opinion, according to which the legal effects of the fundamental or constitutional principles of the Union’s legal system are intended to be understood “by those who must interpret them (ultimately the Court of Justice)” and (b) ruled out the possibility that the principle of energy solidarity constitutes an application of the principle of sincere cooperation, holding only that the former must be “read in conjunction” with the latter.

La sentencia del Tribunal de Justicia de 9 septiembre 2021 en el asunto UM se pronuncia sobre el concepto de pacto sucesorio contenido en el art. 3.1 del Reglamento 650/2012, de 4 de julio de 2012, relativo a la competencia, la ley aplicable, el reconocimiento y la ejecución de las resoluciones, a la aceptación y la ejecución de los documentos públicos en materia de sucesiones mortis causa y a la creación de un certificado sucesorio europeo.

La interpretación autónoma y uniforme del Reglamento de sucesiones debe favorecer el objetivo de ayudar a los herederos y a las personas próximas al causante y también a los acreedores de la herencia a ejercer sus derechos en situaciones de sucesión mortis causa con repercusiones transfronterizas, así como permitir a los ciudadanos de la Unión preparar su sucesión. Esta sentencia al clarificar el concepto de pacto sucesorio y determinar la aplicación del Reglamento de sucesiones facilita la identificación de la norma de Derecho Internacional Privado de la Unión a las transmisiones mortis causa y, con ello, la seguridad jurídica en las situaciones con elemento extranjero.

La pignoración de cuentas de centralización de tesorería y la noción de ‘control’ como requisito de aportación de la garantía financiera
Authors: Martín Baumeister Bruno W.
Published: March 2022

La constitución de garantías financieras sobre cuentas de depósito de efectivo integradas en contratos de centralización de tesorería se encuentra en la intersección entre las normas de solvencia bancaria establecidas en Basilea III y la liberalización de los servicios de pagos promovida por la segunda directiva de servicios de pagos (PSD2). En la Sentencia Swedbank el TJUE se pronuncia por primera vez sobre la interpretación del término ‘control’ como requisito de constitución de las garantías financieras y se decanta por la noción de ‘control negativo’ acuñada en los casos británicos Gray y Lehman Brothers. Swedbank desincentiva, en cierta medida, la administración de estos contratos por parte de entidades de crédito y, sin embargo, abre la puerta a empresas FinTech especializadas en la prestación de servicios de pago, que no estarían sujetas, en principio, a las normas de solvencia de Basilea III.
Reconocimiento y causas de oposición al reconomiento de un laudo arbitral panameño ¿“no firme”? En España
Authors: Ruiz Martin Anna María
Published: March 2022

En este Auto del Tribunal Superior de Justicia (TSJ) catalán se concede el reconocimiento de un laudo arbitral extranjero dictado por el Tribunal Arbitral de Panamá en el año 2019, a favor de una empresa mejicana en contra de una empresa española, pero del que se alegaba que no se había declarado aún su firmeza ante los tribunales del país de la sede arbitral. La resolución es de especial interés por el recorrido que hace de las teorías jurisprudenciales consolidadas en la práctica al interpretar las causales de oposición existentes en la normativa internacional de aplicación al procedimiento de reconocimiento y ejecución de laudos arbitrales extranjeros, esto es, de la Convención de Nueva York de 1958. Las más destacadas son las relacionadas con el orden público, la falta de firmeza del laudo, excesiva e indebida injerencia de los árbitros en las materias que eran arbitrables o no y la indebida extensión del Convenio arbitral a terceros no signatarios. Mostrando la tendencia de los TSJ en conceder el reconocimiento de laudos arbitrales extranjeros en vez de denegarlo.

Recognition of a status acquired abroad
Authors: Giacomini Marta , Vivirito Pellegrino Martina
Published: March 2022

Analyzing the recent Italian case-law is clear that a difficult balance is maintained between the Italian Law and the State’s obligation to recognize a foreign status under the EU law and ECHR principles. Moreover, the recognition of foreign judgment and provisions related to personal status are surely interconnected with the role of public policy, on one hand, and the effectiveness of human rights on the other hand.
Recognition of a status acquired abroad
Authors: Lilian Gössl Susanne
Published: March 2022

The case law of the CJEU and the ECtHR enhances the recognition of a status acquired abroad. The German legislative and judicative have consequently reacted, especially in the field of international name law. While the case law of the CJEU has fundamentally changed private international law approaches, the case law of the ECtHR so far has only been considered as a part of possible public policy arguments. Regarding the CJEU law, courts have developed a sophisticated system to “recognize” a status according to the theory of renvoi en bloc. This report describes how the aforementioned case law has changed and is changing the private international law methodology and practice.

Post-education, what after? Part 1
Authors:   Omsk State University named after F. M. Dostoevsky, Kuparashvili M.J.
Published: March 2022

The concern of teachers, schoolchildren and parents about the current state of education is regularly sanctified both in the media and in the fundamental analytical works of specialists. The need for new ways and methods of organizing education rests on the one hand on official standards that are completely illegitimate in the eyes of the public, and, secondly, in the absence of alternative viable projects based on the continuity of educational constructs, taking into account the traditional cultural characteristics of the Russian people, which are so rich in domestic pedagogy and psychology.

Is cultural thought in Russia enriching by province?
Authors:   Kabardino-Balkarian State University, Tkhagapsoev Khazhismel G. , Berberova Liana B. ,   Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation
Published: March 2022

The monograph of Umetov M.A. “Ethno-cultural code of health of the Adyghes” is analyzed. It is argued that the categorical definition of “ethno-cultural code of health”, proposed by the author of the monograph, has not only cognitive and epistemological potential, but also creates new prerequisites for the dialogue of cultures and intercultural communication, which is especially important in the conditions of multi-ethnic Russia.
