Published: September 2024

Baiyangdian Lake, recognized as the largest freshwater body in northern China, plays a vital role in maintaining the regional eco-environment. Prior studies have pointed out the contamination of sediments with heavy metals, raising concerns about eco-environmental challenges. Therefore, it is imperative to evaluate the current pollution levels and ecological threats related to heavy metals found in the sediments of Baiyangdian Lake as well as in its inflow rivers. In May 2022, surface sediments with a depth of less than 20 cm were analyzed for Cu, Zn, Pb, Cr, Ni, As, Cd, and Hg to determine the pollution status, identify sources of pollution, and evaluate potential ecological risks. A range of evaluation methods used by predecessors such as geo-accumulation index (Igeo), enrichment factor (EF), ecological risk index (RI), sediment quality guidelines (SQGs), positive matrix factorization (PMF), absolute principal component score-multiple linear regression model (APCS-MLR), chemical mass balance (CMB), and UNMIX model were analyzed. After comparison, multi-methods including the geo-accumulation index (Igeo), absolute principal component score-multiple linear regression model (APCS-MLR), ecological risk index (RI), and sediment quality guidelines (SQGs) were utilized this time, leading to a better result. Findings reveal that pollution levels are generally low or non-existent, with only 1.64% of sampling sites showing close to moderate pollution levels for Cu, Pb, and Zn, and 4.92% and 1.64% of sites exhibiting close to moderate and moderate pollution levels for Cd, respectively. The main contributors to heavy metal presence are pinpointed as industrial wastewater discharge, particularly Cu, Zn, Pb, Cd, and Hg. The ecological risks are also relatively low, with 4.92%, 1.64%, and 1.64% of sampling sites demonstrating close to moderate, moderate, and strong risks in the inflow rivers, respectively. Additionally, only one site shows moderate potential biological toxicity, while the rest display non-toxicity. These findings will update our cognition and offer a scientific basis for pollution treatment and ecosystem enhancement for government management.
Ethical and legal aspects of the abortion dispute in Italy in 2020-2023
Authors: Kobyliński Andrzej
Published: September 2024

The main goal of the article is to analyze the key elements of the current dispute over worldviews and politics in Italy concerning the ethical and legal aspects of various forms of abortion. The country on the Tiber River was one of the states around the world that widely liberalized abortion laws during the COVID-19 pandemic. In August 2020, the Italian Ministry of Health decided that pharmacological abortion – performed with the medical preparation RU-486 – should not be practiced at hospital gynaecology-obstetrics wards, but at day hospital facilities, with no requirement of hospitalization for women performing this type of abortion. Limited access to medical services in public and private healthcare facilities led to the practice of pharmacological abortion shifting largely from hospitals and clinics to pharmacies, private apartments, and homes. In 2021, pharmacological abortion in Italy accounted for 48.3% of all abortions performed under the current abortion law.
In the face of the trivialization of the termination of pregnancy, Italian pro-life circles have taken a variety of measures to protect preborn life. One such initiative was the “Beating Heart” campaign, which looked at the possibility of showing the unborn child and its beating heart to the woman seeking an abortion. The analyses carried out in the article show that in the age of the Internet and the global village, it is not so much the legal norms that are increasingly important, but human free will and the awakening of people’s moral sensitivity by developing appropriate bioethical awareness at the societal level. In this context, the various initiatives currently implemented in Italy by pro-life circles to achieve these goals are of great significance. In addition, the abortion debate in Italy supplies a number of arguments for the need to extend the conscience clause to pharmacy personnel.
Consequences of bullying on the life and health of the person being bullied
Authors: Szczęsna Iwona
Published: September 2024

One of the most serious pathologies in the work environment is bullying. Victims of mobbing experience emotional, psychological and sometimes even physical violence, which causes consequences on an individual, organizational, social level. Due to the serious consequences of bullying, it becomes necessary to continuously monitor this phenomenon in the context of formulating possible ways to prevent and rehabilitate those who have experienced it. The purpose of the research undertaken was to learn about the consequences of bullying on the personal lives and health of victims of bullying. 13 respondents took part in the study. In selecting the sample, the assumption was made that those taking part in the study must have a court case held, during which the occurrence of mobbing in the employment relationship was found. A qualitative strategy using a narrative interview was used to obtain and analyze data. The presentation of the results of the study was divided into two areas: the consequences of bullying on personal life and the consequences of bullying on the victim's health. The most common symptoms of somatic disorders in the subjects related to the experience of bullying were headaches, dizziness, abdominal pain, nausea, pain in the heart area, sleep disturbances, and general weakness. In the area of mental disorders associated with experienced bullying, those surveyed most often mentioned: concentration and attention disorders, mood disorders, depression, addiction to psychoactive substances, and even suicidal thoughts. All the mental disorders mentioned are inextricably linked to exposure to chronic stress. It is the substrate of physiological, emotional and behavioral reactions, as well as intellectual reactions. All the listed consequences of bullying on the health of the victim, affect personal life. The experience of bullying affects a person's creative activity, which is passion. The consequence of bullying situations is the abandonment of activity, and the return to previous passions causes frustration, stress, and attacks of aggression in the subjects. Those affected by bullying transfer their problems to their private lives, so the effects of bullying also affect the immediate family. The prolongation of the bullying situation and the behavior of the victim of bullying often leads in the family sphere to: quarrels, frustration, deterioration of ties and relations, aggression and family breakdown. In order to design intervention and prevention measures, it is necessary to increase public awareness of the phenomenon of mobbing and its consequences for the individual, the organization and society.

Authors: P Anjali Krishnan , A Bibitha , A Shamna M , T Tamilselvan
Published: September 2024

Background: Asthma is a chronic inflammatory condition that significantly affects patients' quality of life and poses a substantial healthcare burden. Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are a primary treatment modality, yet variations in treatment objectives between patients and healthcare providers necessitate a collaborative approach to asthma management. Objective: This review aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different ICS formulations and combination therapies in managing asthma and to identify optimal treatment strategies that align with both clinical guidelines and patient preferences. Methodology: A systematic search of the MEDLINE database was conducted to identify studies published from 2019 to the present, focusing on the safety and efficacy of ICS in asthma therapy. Out of 106 initial results, 11 studies (including controlled and randomized controlled trials) met the inclusion criteria for review. Results: The analysis revealed that the timely administration of ICS can significantly reduce emergency room visits and hospitalizations during acute exacerbations. Studies highlighted the comparative advantages of various ICS, such as fluticasone furoate's enhanced airway protection and the effectiveness of self-titration strategies in managing symptoms. Combination therapies involving ICS improved asthma control and lung function, particularly in patients with moderate to severe asthma and those with asthma-COPD overlap. Implications: The findings underscore the importance of individualized ICS therapy, suggesting that tailored treatment regimens can enhance clinical outcomes and patient adherence. Integrating patient feedback into treatment decisions is essential for optimizing asthma management strategies.

Vivências dos jovens militantes LGBTQIA+ em face às manifestações homofóbicas presentes no convívio escolar em Igarapé-Miri, Pará
Authors: Pantoja Antunes Graciete , Da Silva Lobato Vivian
Published: September 2024

O presente artigo tem por objetivo analisar as vivências de jovens militantes LGBTQIA+ no processo de escolarização, em face às manifestações homofóbicas presentes no convívio social e escolar em Igarapé-Miri, Pará, Brasil. A abordagem metodológica adotada é a qualitativa, com entrevistas semiestruturadas a 04 (quatro) militantes LGBTQIA+, que já concluíram a educação básica e participaram dos primeiros movimentos para concretizar a militância em Igarapé-Miri. Os resultados apontam o preconceito e a homofobia como problemas que excluem os jovens da perspectiva da sociedade, já que muitas práticas agressivas ocorridas dentro e fora das escolas são oriundas da falta de respeito às diferenças. Isso envolve as diferentes culturas, aprendizados e valores. Nesse sentido, torna-se relevante a escola ter um currículo amplo, voltado para as várias dimensões sociais, possibilitando a formação de cidadãos críticos e reflexivos, independentemente da sua capacidade de concentração, orientação sexual, raça e condição econômica.
 
Abstract
This article aims to analyze the experiences of young LGBTQIA+ activists in the schooling process in face of homophobic manifestations in social and school life in Igarapé-Miri, Pará, Brazil. We adopted qualitative methodological approach, with semi-structured interviews. The participants were 04 (four) LGBTQIA+ activists who have already completed basic education and participated in the first movements to implement militancy in Igarapé-Miri. The results point to prejudice and homophobia as problems that exclude young people, since many aggressive practices occur inside and outside schools and come from a lack of respect for differences, which involves different cultures, learning and values. In this sense, it is important for schools to have a broad curriculum, focused on the various social dimensions, enabling the formation of critical and reflective citizens regardless their ability to concentrate, sexual orientation, race and economic condition.

La relación hombre-naturaleza como fundamento de la responsabilidad ambiental
Authors: Valera Ramos Aniela
Published: September 2024

Environmental responsibility has been analyzed since the mid-20th century, establishing its foundation in the disruption of the relationship between humans and nature. The urgency of these evaluations is a consequence of the negative impacts that human development has had on nature, endangering human existence itself. Delving into the study of the processes affecting this relationship, with the philosophical dimensions it implies, is a task that demands engagement with the body of knowledge of this science. Philosophy, as a conception of the world, includes ontological, ethical, and gnoseological dimensions. Therefore, addressing environmental issues should be done from this same philosophical perspective, more specifically from dialectical materialism, which allows for an understanding of the dynamics of natural and social development. Many scientists and intellectuals converge on the foundation and conceptualization of environmental responsibility. At this point, it is necessary to clarify the elements that allow for the establishment of the human-nature relationship as the basis of environmental responsibility. This research aims, from a historical-philosophical perspective, to analyze the human-nature relationship as the foundation of environmental responsibility based on ontological, ethical, and gnoseological dimensions. Given the qualitative nature of the research, it is based on the dialectical materialist conception of the world, supported by analytical-synthetic, hermeneutic, and historical-logical methods, which allowed for the determination of contributory elements for the theoretical foundation of environmental responsibility. In this sense, it was concluded that the relationship between the ontological, ethical, and gnoseological dimensions established in the study of the human-nature relationship allows it to be established as the basis of environmental responsibility. It also contributes to the integral analysis of phenomena occurring in nature, additionally providing essential elements for the development of contemporary environmental ethics.

Published: September 2024

Background:Moringa oleiferais a fast-growing, long-lived plant that blooms throughout the year and can withstand extreme arid conditions.

Objective:This study aims to examine the effectiveness of Moringa oleiferaseed powder in reducing nitrate levels in river water.

Method:The research method employed in this study involved analysis using the Paired Sample Statistical Test.

Result:The statistical test results revealed a significance value of 0.017 (p < 0.05) and a mixing time variation significance of 0.011 (p < 0.05). These values indicate that the null hypothesis (H0: there is no relationship between the independent and dependent variables) is rejected, while the alternative hypothesis (Ha: there is a relationship between the independent and dependent variables) is accepted. This implies a significant difference in the reduction of nitrate levels between the pretest and posttest data, demonstrating that the use of Moringaseed powder is effective in reducing nitrate levels.

Conclusion:This study concludes that the administration of Moringaseed powder at a dose of 400 mg/L, with a mixing time of 2 minutes at a fast speed (80 rpm) and 20 minutes at a low speed (40 rpm), is most effective in significantly reducing nitrate levels in river water.

Authors: Kaskin AbdulKadir , Ersin Irfan , Atalan AbdulKadir
Published: September 2024

This study aims to estimate the price fluctuations of essential grain products, namely bread wheat (Triticum aestivum), durum wheat (Triticum durum), barley (Hordeum vulgare), and corn (Zea mays), in Türkiye using machine learning (ML) algorithms. Using data from January 2, 2020, to January 10, 2023, the study employs algorithms such as random forest (RF), neural network (NN), support vector machine (SVM), and linear regression (LR). Independent variables include oil prices, currency exchange rates, and grain production volumes. The random forest (RF) algorithm provided the best results with the highest R² values, while NN and LR showed relatively lower performance. The study highlights the significant impact of production and consumption volumes on grain prices and underscores the importance of ML algorithms in predicting these prices amidst changing conditions. Investments in agricultural technologies should be increased to improve data collection and analysis processes, as this is crucial for preventing price fluctuations in the agricultural sector.

Modélisation à micro-échelle de la qualité de l'air en zones urbaines à l'aide de méthodes CFD et IA
Authors: Reiminger Nicolas , Jurado Xavier
Published: September 2024

La pollution atmosphérique est une problématique majeure, autant à l'échelle nationale qu'internationale, car elle est à l'origine de nombreuses maladies et d'un très grand nombre de décès prématurés chaque année. En ville, la qualité de l'air est d'autant plus dégradée que les sources anthropogéniques de polluants de l'air sont nombreuses, comme pour le dioxyde d'azote (NO2) majoritairement émis du trafic routier.
Afin de se protéger contre cette pollution ainsi que pour les bonnes décisions en matière d'urbanisme durable, un des enjeux est de prendre en mesure d'évaluer les concentrations en polluants de l'air de manière fiable, précise, en tout point. et à toute altitude. La modélisation numérique à micro-échelle apparaît comme un outil adapté pour répondre à cet enjeu, tenant compte à la fois de la météorologie, mais aussi de la configuration du bâti, mais son opérationnalité nécessite d'être prouvée sur le terrain et dans un contexte réel. . La présente étude a été réalisée dans ce mais, où deux modèles micro-échelle de qualité de l'air incluant un modèle de mécanique des fluides numérique (CFD, terme anglais pour Computational Fluid Dynamics) ainsi qu'un modèle
d'intelligence (artificielle IA) ont été testés et comparés aux mesures horaires et mensuelles de concentration en NO2 relevées à Anvers en Belgique. Les résultats montrent que les deux modèles sont valides, satisfaisant tous deux largement les critères d'erreur tolérées par la directive cadre européenne relative à la qualité de l'air, tant pour la modélisation horaire des concentrations en NO2 (avec un avantage pour la méthode d'IA) que pour la modélisation mensuelle de ces concentrations (avec un avantage pour la méthode CFD). Cette étude montre la précision et la fiabilité de tels modèles dans un contexte appliqué d'étude de la qualité de l'air, prouvant leur intérêt dans le cadre d'études environnementales afin de développer un urbanisme durable et concerté.
Dispute Settlement Mechanisms in International Agreements of the European Union
Authors: Lonardo Luigi
Published: September 2024

This article attempts a systematisation of the types of dispute settlement mechanisms in EU international agreements, and it comments upon their most salient features from the perspective of EU law. All EU dispute settlement is peaceful dispute settlement. Within this type of dispute settlement, several categories can be distinguished: some EU international agreements contain no dispute settlement clause; some allow for the imposition of coercive measures such as sanctions; and most foresee the recourse to judicial or quasi-judicial avenues. In addition to judicial avenues in an independent court, EU international agreements in fact also include ‘softer’ mechanisms for consultation, mediation, or cooperation whereby the parties endeavour to reach a mutually agreed solution for solving any dispute before recurring to judicial avenues. This article suggests possible taxonomies of judicial or quasi-judicial mechanisms based on the body in charge of setting the dispute, on the procedure and on the subject matter, and it identifies common patterns in the inclusion of these forms of dispute settlement in EU international agreements.

Pollution indicators of heavy metals in the sediments of the Lepenc river in Kosovo
Authors: Dreshaj Lecaj Elida , Haskaj Adelina , Paçarizi Musaj
Published: September 2024

The sediments of the Lepenc River in Kosovo have been investigated, by using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) technique. The concentrations of such metals as As, Ca, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mn, Nb, Ni, Pb, Rb, Sr, Th, Ti, V, Y, Zn and Zr were analyzed in six different locations. The most of metals analyzed had median values higher than those in European steam sediment. Basic statistics, Pearson’s correlation and cluster analysis were performed to better explain the data of metal concentrations in the river sediments. Four groups of elements were identified by cluster analysis based on their geogenic or anthropogenic origin. The sediments were mostly contaminated with potentially toxic elements (As, Cr, Cu and Ni). The contamination factors (CF) for different metals and locations ranged from 1.8 to 5.33, and the pollution load index (PLI) from 2.42 to 3.09. Nickel and chromium contributed the most to sediment pollution, and their geoaccumulation indices (Igeo) in all locations were higher than 1. The most polluted sediment samples were in two locations, in the vicinity of a nickel mine and a cement factory.

While there is wide implementation of telemedicine in developed economies, other countries lag behind. However, for more than a decade, some of these countries have recognized the potential benefits of information and communication technology (ICT) in the delivery of health care. There is an urgent need for an understanding of telemedicine implementation issues affecting various nations, as Telemedicine systems innovations and implementation initiatives are still in their early stages, albeit with a lot of struggles in these countries. The purpose of this study is to develop a framework for implementation of Telemedicine systems. The study considered both qualitative and quantitative data that was collected from hospitals in three counties within Kenya, and then finally, a framework for the implementation of telemedicine was proposed. The study provides some key insights into the implementation of Telemedicine systems in public hospitals and, to some extent, in private hospitals in Developing Countries. Having contextualized the implementation of telemedicine, the study concluded from the findings that Telemedicine implementation is an all-encompassing process that is predicated on policy and legislation issues, organizational issues, social and technological factors, and as such, for successful implementation, careful consideration of all these is fundamental

Published: September 2024

Photovoltaic (PV) systems are among the types of renewable energy that are frequently employed. Since the characteristics of the solar cell depend on the amount of insolation and temperature, it is necessary to use MPPT “Maximum Power Point Tracking” to move the operating voltage close to the maximum power point under changing weather conditions. This article aims to design a photovoltaic energy system based on boost converter control to obtain maximum power using a hybrid algorithm based on artificial neurons (ANN). Additionally included is a proportional-integral (PI) controller, which improves the performance of the ANN-MPPT controller; this method is quick and precise for tracking the maximum power point (MPP) in the face of variations in temperature and solar radiation. The efficiency of the tracking algorithm was calculated and compared to one of the traditional methods, the incremental conductance (INC) method, in addition to comparing it to other hybrid methods and by simulating the system using MATLAB/Simulation and analyzing the results. This study unequivocally proves the superiority of the hybrid ANN+PI strategy; the efficiency reached 99.91%. This approach excels at tracking maximum power accuracy by leveraging the adaptive learning capabilities of neural networks, ensuring maximum power even in the face of changing environmental conditions.

Implementation of the Rules of the Institute of Application of Ciminal Law Measures to Legal Entities in Court Practice: Results of a 10-Year Marathon
Authors: Zahynei-Zabolotenko Zoe
Published: September 2024

The article analyzes both criminal and criminal procedural legislation and court practice with regard to the application of criminal law measures against legal entities. The author establishes that at the regulatory level, the objective reason for the low efficiency of the rules on the application of such measures is, first of all, the dependence established by the criminal procedure legislation of Ukraine between the procedural fate of proceedings against a legal entity and criminal proceedings against an authorized person who committed a relevant criminal offense on behalf of and/or in the interests of a legal entity. The author analyzed 6 verdicts which resolved the issue of application of criminal legal measures against legal entities. As can be seen from the above analysis, during the 10 years of the legal institution on the application of criminal legal measures against legal entities, the court practice is characterized by a progressive movement from primitive decisions on the application of criminal legal measures against legal entities in the wrong procedural order provided for by the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine to verdicts that applied such measures procedurally correctly. In our opinion, the reason for such a small number of cases of application of criminal legal measures against legal entities in Ukraine is the fact that the procedural fate of proceedings against a legal entity is completely dependent on the criminal proceedings against its authorized person, and the lack of a single structural part of the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine that would regulate the procedural procedure for application of criminal legal measures against legal entities. This situation should be remedied at the regulatory level by introducing appropriate amendments to the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine. At the same time, there is a need to develop training activities for stakeholders – investigators, prosecutors, judges, lawyers - aimed at learning the procedure for applying criminal legal measures to legal entities.

Key words: criminal law measures against legal entities, proceedings against a legal entity, criminal proceedings against an individual, authorized person of a legal entity, actions on behalf of and/or in the interests of a legal entity, representative of a legal entity in respect of which proceedings are being conducted, criminal offense, training of investigators, prosecutors, attorneys, judges.
The Grammatical Dispute Regarding the Attachment of "Kama" in the Qur'an and Its Impact on Tafsir (Exegesis) Literature
Authors: Al Sheikh Mubarak Abeer
Published: September 2024

The issue of the attachment of "Kama" is one of the matters that has occupied grammarians and exegetes; grammarians have differed regarding the attachment of "Kama" in several places in the Qur'an. This study is centered on the following question: How does the grammatical disagreement over the attachment of "Kama" affect the interpretation of the verses? This study aims to analyze the attachment of "Kama" in various Quranic contexts, present the grammatical disputes surrounding it, and explore the impact of these disputes on the exegesis literature. The goal is to propose a grammatical perspective that contributes to guiding the parsing of Quranic verses by relying on an analytical methodology in the study. Furthermore, the scientific significance of this study lies in enhancing the linguistic understanding of the Quranic context, providing interpretative insights into Quranic texts, reducing discrepancies in multiple grammatical explanations, and enriching linguistic and grammatical studies related to the Qur'an. Findings indicate that there is a disagreement among grammarians in four instances of the evidence of "Kama" in the Qur'an. Such plurality of opinions in this matter does not imply an error in any of these views but rather reflects the depth, precision, and richness of the Quranic context. The correctness of a single word's attachment to more than one element is considered one of the miraculous aspects of the Qur'an. Ultimately, this analysis recommends expanding the scope of research to include the study of the attachments of words similar to "Kama" in the Qur'an, such as the words "Mithl" (like) and "Ka'anna" (as if).

THE INTERACTION BETWEEN THE FAMILIAR AND THE EERIE: THE REPRESENTATION OF FREUD’S UNCANNY IN BECKETT’S ENDGAME
Authors: Balkaya Mehmet Akif
Published: September 2024

This article examines the interaction between the familiar and the eerie, as theorized by Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) in his essay “The Uncanny” (1919), and to what extent such an interaction may have been represented in the barren and post-apocalyptic setting of Samuel Beckett’s (1906-1989) Endgame (1957). Freud’s concept of the uncanny reveals it as a phenomenon that arises from the unsettling revival of what was once familiar, now transformed into something strangely unfamiliar. By conducting an analysis of Freud’s uncanny and its representation in Beckett’s play, this research aims to explain the existence of the eerie in human consciousness and its influence on the existential challenges represented by the actions and dialogues of the characters, the setting and the repetitive, seemingly pointless exchanges between Hamm and Clov. The play’s representation of reliance, isolation, and the ongoing struggle because of the inescapable nature of death puts forth the idea of the uncanny. Therefore, the play has parallels with Freud’s concept of the uncanny since it represents the uncanny as an element of the human experience, marked by an ongoing struggle that takes place between existence and nonexistence, actuality and deception.
