Using the Campbell Paradigm to Understand the Role of Institutional Trust in Environmental Policy Support
Authors: Urban Jan , Duda Ewa
Published: January 2024

Previous studies have shown that institutional trust is associated with people's support for some environmental policies (e.g., support for higher taxation) but not others (e.g., support for subsidies and bans). Such findings seem to contradict the notion that institutional trust helps to resolve social dilemmas and thus facilitates collective action on environmental problems. In the current study, we use the conceptual framework of the attitudinal theory of the Campbell paradigm to understand the lack of institutional trust as a behavioral cost of policy support which counterweights people’s motivation to support a policy. Using a dataset from the Environmental module of a recent ISSP survey conducted in 28 countries, we corroborated the theoretical prediction, namely the expected positive effect of institutional trust on support for both pro- and anti-environmental policies. We also corroborated, albeit with some qualifications, that the choice of environmental policy depends on perceived behavioral costs exemplified by institutional trust in our study. The Campbell paradigm provides a useful analytical framework for understanding the role of trust in environmental policy support. It also helps us to understand previous inconsistent findings regarding the effect of trust on environmental policy support.

Published: January 2024

Impact attribution is an emerging transdisciplinary sub-discipline of detection and attribution, focused on the social, economic, and ecological impacts of climate change. Here, we provide an overview of common end-to-end frameworks in impact attribution, focusing on examples relating to the human health impacts of climate change. We propose a typology of study designs based on whether researchers choose to focus on long-term trends or specific events; whether they compare climate scenarios by estimating impact probabilities, or only focus on the difference in impact distributions; and whether they choose to split climate change attribution and impact estimation into separate analytical steps (and often, separate studies). We map four common study designs onto this typology, and discuss their relative strengths in terms of both inferential rigor and science communication potential. We conclude by discussing a handful of related and emerging approaches, and discuss how methodological innovations in impact attribution are continuing to advance our understanding of the climate crisis.
Developmental Equilibrium Selection
Authors: Branas-Garza Pablo , Montero Pablo
Published: January 2024

This paper studies whether using Payoff dominance is more or less natural than Risk dominance through a sample of more than a thousand of preadolescents and teenagers (n = 1, 254 , av. age = 12.8, 48%female). Participants in two coordination games (within-subjects) were asked to select astrategy but also to state a reason explaining their choice. They also completed a CRT, a short financial quiz and a risk decision task. Using both the strategies chosen by the participants and their arguments, we determine whether they use payoffs or risk as devices to coordinate. Our research provides four main findings. First, using payoff dominance is more natural than risk dominance. Second, the use both devices is highly correlated with individualcognitive abilities. Third, strategic sophistication does not improve with age. Last, individual preferences for risk do not explain the use of risk dominance, and no gender differences were found. This evidence suggests that the acquisition of cognitive abilities provides essential skills that foster a greater capacity for strategic thinking. Finally, the analysis of chosen strategies without stated reasoning or vice versa provides the very same results.
Anywhere but Here: Neighborhood Violence and Local School Preferences in Baltimore City
Authors: Burdick-Will Julia , Gebo Leela , Williams Alexandra D.
Published: January 2024

In this study we examine whether students in violent neighborhoods actively avoid their local school as a form of social and physical protection. Specifically, we use ten-years of administrative data (2010-20) from the high school choice open enrollment program in Baltimore City Public School System (BCPSS) to evaluate the interaction between neighborhood violence and geographic proximity when predicting choice behavior. We find that, adjusting for observed school characteristics and constant unobserved student characteristics, students from more violent neighborhoods are substantially less likely to choose their closest school than those in safer neighborhoods; even when the closest school is listed, it is ranked lower for students from more violent neighborhoods than for students in safer ones. These findings have implications for how we think about the relationship between neighborhoods and educational opportunity in an era of choice.
A democratic audit for Europe in times of emergency
Authors: Fossum John Erik , Lord Christopher
Published: January 2024

The purpose of this paper is to sketch the outline of a Democratic Audit of the pandemic with explicit focus on the European Union. We take as our point of departure that the corona pandemic was understood as a time of emergency, and this understanding was widely shared. Hence, in order to understand the democratic and constitutional implications of the pandemic we need to focus on the nature and conditions of politics in times of emergency. Emergencies can make it hard to deliver democratic politics to normal standards: to hold elections in normal ways; to pass laws by normal democratic procedures without legislatures ceding their powers to executive discretion if not decree; to gather representatives together in parliaments to scrutinise and debate responses to emergencies; to maintain full rights of free speech and assembly at the core of democratic politics. Yet crises, and even emergencies, are likely to be recurring features of our world of fragile, interdependent systems that displace problems with and between themselves. Democracies, therefore, need to define what standards and procedures should apply in an emergency. They will need to think counterfactually and not just historically: to anticipate possible emergencies and not just draw lessons from those experienced. Much recent literature has turned away from the idea of emergency powers as a state of exception outside the normal politics and procedures of the democratic constitutional state. Rather, it asks how the powers and politics of emergency can themselves be embedded in democratic institutions and constitutional procedures.The paper starts by clarifying what is meant by democratic audit. It thereafter proceeds to discuss how to adapt the democratic audit framework to the special conditions surrounding emergency politics, and thereafter outlines three different positions in the international literature on emergency governance that it holds up against the democratic audit framework. The next part provides an overview of emergency politics criteria as defined by the Council of Europe. These criteria have been devised for the assessment of constitutional democracies understood as states, and therefore need modification to apply to the complex multilevel EU setting. The paper does that by first highlighting some of the distinctive traits of the EU that need to be taken into consideration, and thereafter pulls these elements together to present the outline of a Democratic Audit of the pandemic for the multilevel EU. The final part concludes.
Analysing inter-state communication dynamics and roles in the networks of the International Institute of Intellectual Cooperation
Authors: Casañ Ruben Rodriguez , Catalan Elisabet Carbo , Ribalta Albert Sole , Sanz Diana Roig , Borge-Holthoefer Javier , Cardillo Alessio
Published: January 2024

The International Institute of Intellectual Cooperation (IIIC) was an international organisation established post-World War I, aimed to foster intellectual relations for global peace. As this institution becomes centenary, the digitisation of archival records has democratised access, sparking renewed scholar interest and eventually enabling new research avenues. Here, we examine two letter collections from IIIC’s digitised funds, focusing on administrative and artistic/literary matters. By analysing recognisable sender-receiver pairs and their geographical origins, we construct networks revealing intricate international relationships. Notably, the community structures and roles differ between administrative and literary exchanges, suggesting distinct communication dynamics. Administrative matters depict a more egalitarian distribution. In contrast, relevant literary correspondents include Western European countries exclusively, reflecting the prominence of certain geocultural areas as well as potential geopolitical influence attempts, challenging the established historical narratives on centres and peripheries, inviting a revaluation of the IIIC’s geographical organisation and intellectual cooperation during the interwar period.

Published: January 2024

The petrographic and geochemical characteristics of the Mesozoic igneous rocks of the Mikhailovsky massif, including the sills and dikes of the Evotinsky ore district located in the central part of the Nimnyr terrane of the Aldan-Stanovoy shield, were examined. This study revealed for the first time that the Mikhailovsky Massif is composed of  quartz monzonites, while the sills and dikes are composed of quartz syenites. These rocks are geochemically close to the shoshonite-latite series of island arc rocks and are enriched in LREE and depleted in HREE, characterized by aweak negative Eu-anomaly. The sequence of magmatism development in the Mesozoic has been established: the formation of rocks of the Mikhailovsky massif and most small bodies occurred in the post-collision period, followed by the intrusion of quartzsyenite dike bodies in theanorogenicstages of territorial development.The study suggeststhat all the studied igneous rocks of the northeastern part of the Evotinsky region are characterized by a duality of geochemical composition,which indicates either intense mantle-crustal interactionor the existence of two sources of both mantle and crustal originat that time.

Published: January 2024

The interaction between surfactants and dyes is fundamental in achieving the desired coloration and properties in various applications, shaping the functionality and effectiveness of dye-related processes across multiple industries. Further research and advancements in this field will continue contributing to innovative solutions and improved sustainability. While mixed surfactants offer these advantages, the choice between using a single surfactant or a mixture depends on the specific application, the desired properties, cost considerations, and compatibility with other formulation components. It's important to carefully evaluate the application requirements and conduct appropriate testing to determine the most effective approach. In this work, the physical-chemical characteristics and solubilization of reactive dyes in single and mixed micellar media are elaborated. Compared to the single-micellar medium, the mixed-micellar medium showed improved reactive dye trapping, which was attributed to the presence of both cationic and nonionic surfactants, namely cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and triton X-100. In this interactional study, two reactive dyes were used: Reactive Black 5 (RB) and Reactive Yellow 145 (RY). It is noteworthy to examine the modeling and micellization of mixed surfactant systems in an aqueous medium including dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The anionic-rich and cationic-rich interactions between methylene blue (MB) and methyl orange (MO) in aqueous solutions were clearly shown in the diagram.

Authors: Bogati Namita Kumari , Aryal Bhagwan , Kuikel Jyoti , Bogati Tilak , Ranabhat Chhabi Lal
Published: January 2024

Uterine Prolapse (UP) is one of the hidden morbidities that do not lead to death, but women suffer from severe lifelong disabilities. In Nepal, the prevalence of UP in women varies from 10 to 40% due to several underlying causes. Therefore, the main aim of the study was to identify the prevalence and associated risk factors of UP. This community-based descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 300 married women aged 18 and over in four villages of Kamal Bazar Municipality, Achham, who suffered from UP. The random sampling technique was used to collect the data. The samples were selected using multistage sampling technique. The structured interview questionnaire was used and the face-to-face interview was conducted. The data were analyzed using MS-Excel and SPSS version 23. The statistical tests used were binary logistic regression, univariate and multivariate logistic regression. The prevalence of UP was 33.7%. In the multivariate analysis, participants aged 20-30 were forty one times more likely to suffer from UP than older participants of 50-60 {aOR 41.86 (95% CI; 14.31-122.45)}, were seven times more likely to have not attended health facilities for Antenatal Checkup/Postnatal Checkup (ANC/PNC) {aOR 7.10 (95% CI; 3.53-14.26)}, were less likely to have institutional delivery {aOR 0.13 (95% CI; 0.05-0.31)} and were three times more likely to have high Body Mass Index (BMI) {aOR 3.97 (95% CI; 1.81-8.71)}. Thus, the participants who hadn’t attended ANC/PNC checkups, had given birth at home, or had a high BMI, were more likely to have suffered from UP. Education is necessary to make people aware of UP at an early age and its impact is seen among people of a lower age inthe area.

THE LAWYER IN THE AREA OF TENSION BETWEEN THE PUBLIC INTEREST-ORIENTED ADMINISTRATION OF JUSTICE AND FREEDOM TO EXERCISE THE PROFESSION, USING THE EXAMPLE OF ADVISORY ASSISTANCE – A PLEA FOR THE IMPORTANCE OF LEGAL FACT- FINDING STUDIES TO OBTAIN EMPIRICAL DATA
Authors: Lefèvre Julia
Published: January 2024

As part of his public interest-oriented function of administering justice, a lawyer in Germany must grant advisory assistance (Beratungshilfe) to needy litigants with low incomes on the basis of the legal obligation under § 49a para. 1 of the Federal Code of Lawyers (Bundesrechtsanwaltsordnung – BRAO) in accordance with the Advisory Assistance Act (Beratungshilfegesetz – BerHG). In return, he receives a lower, statutory remuneration claim. The obligation to take over a case with a limited claim to remuneration imposed by law infringes on the lawyer’s freedom to exercise his profession (Berufsausübungsfreiheit) pursuant to Article 12 para. 1 of the Basic Law (Grundgesetz – GG). Such an infringement is only reasonable (angemessen) if the lawyer receives reasonable compensation and it thus becomes constitutional. Legal studies and representative empirical data are required to determine the reasonableness (Angemessenheit).

Authors: Delfita Rina , Tjong Djong Hon
Published: January 2024

Diabetes mellitus and insulin resistance cause harm to the liver. In this study, ameliorative effect of Enhydra fluctuans on liver damage in alloxan-induced diabetic rats were examined.

Thirty acclimatized male albino rats divided into six groups (n = 5). Normal rats were fed a standard diet (Group 1); diabetic rats were provided standard feed (Group 2); diabetic rats were fed standard feed and glibenclamide (Group 3); and diabetic rats were fed standard food and fractions of n-hexane E. fluctuans 57.03, 114.06, and 171.09 mg/kg, respectively (Group 4, 5 and 6). For 21 days, rats were fed the n-hexane fraction orally. On day 1 and day 21 of treatments, blood sugar levels were measured. The histophatology of the liver, serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) and serum glutamic pyruvate transaminase (SGPT) level were estimated.

At a dosage of 57.03 mg/kg was substantially (p < 0.05) beneficial in decreasing blood sugar and SGOT. The n-hexane fraction of E. fluctuans ameliorated liver damage in diabetic rats and avoided diabetes complications, according to our findings. As a result, E. fluctuans has a considerable amount of potential as a novel diabetic therapy.

Authors:   State University of Information and Communication Technologies, Kyiv, Sharan D. O.
Published: January 2024

In the context of the 5G communication architecture, wireless sensing networks are taken into consideration to guarantee the transmission efficiency of the detected data transmitted by the system. Environmental sensors come in a wide variety of forms. Wireless sensing networks are frequently constrained by the issue of inadequate network bandwidth and can comprise a wide range of sensing device types as well as data pertaining to picture or pattern transmission, among other things. The issue of constrained network bandwidth can be resolved by utilizing 5G communications for data delivery. In addition to using 5G transmission, the NB-IoT approach is far more efficient in the context of a 5G network than it was in the initial LTE network. As a result, great transmission efficiency and data integrity are benefits of employing 5G for data transfer. In this study, the suggested method employs MATLAB software to simulate the creation of 5G signals under different parameter settings representing a range of scenarios, in addition to analyzing the evolution of 5G technology. The 5G network architecture is currently being developed globally. The study's transmission speed test data indicates that 5G has a higher transmission efficiency than previous generations.

Rabbit meat in production of frankfurters
Authors: Lušic Polak Mateja , Polak Tomaž , Lekše Katja , Demšar Lea
Published: January 2024

Meat is the most important source of protein, essential amino acids, minerals and B-complex vitamins in our diet. From the nutritional point of view, rabbit meat has a favourable composition due to its relatively low-fat content and belongs to dietary foods. At the same time, consumers of rabbit meat also recognize the typical delicate flavour and distinct tenderness of rabbit meat. For purpose to increase the consumption of rabbit meat products, we prepared and evaluated rabbit frankfurters with the addition of pork back fat and/or sunflower oil (rich in monounsaturated fatty acids, favourable ratio of n-3/ n-6 fatty acids) and without the addition of phosphate. The results showed that the frankfurters with pork back fat are more acceptable from a sensory point of view. The absence of phosphate results in a lighter, less rubbery texture, and at the same time the oxidation process is faster. It can be concluded that rabbit meat is suitable for processing into meat products, especially when combined with vegetable oils, which gives good results, as such a product approaches the optimal fatty acid composition and thus has a positive effect on the health of the consumer.

Published: January 2024

A 40-year-old male presented an episode of severe thunderclap headache with right hemiparesis. Imaging revealed severe stenosis in the left middle cerebral artery, associated with increased mean velocities detected by Transcranial Doppler Ultrasound (TCD). Notably, a distinctive "tin whistle" sound, known as a doppler harmonic effect, near the highest velocity point was observed during the examination. Extensive workup was performed, including CSF analysis and laboratory investigations, and the diagnosis of Reversible Cerebral Vasoconstriction Syndrome (RCVS) was established. Treatment involving medication and daily monitoring led to a decline in the left MCA's velocity, enabling the patient's discharge with no recurrent headaches or neurological deficits. Notably, a follow-up MRI exhibited the disappearance of the left MCA stenosis. This report discusses the rare occurrence of "musical murmurs" in cerebrovascular diseases, underscoring the potential for early diagnosis using techniques like TCD in emergency settings, particularly in conditions like RCVs.
Ultrasound Guided Carpel Tunnel Syndrome Hydrodissection; It’s All About It
Authors: Fouda Basem Hamdy
Published: January 2024

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is one of the most common entrapment neuropathies leading to median nerve compression, with a high prevalence in the adult population. The term hydrodissection (HD) conveys a process of nerve fiber separation from adjacent structures, thus alleviating the underlying nerve compression, helping in pain relief, and improving nerve functions subsequently. Several methods with different techniques and different injectates have been studied with variable results. This review aims at highlighting the efficacy and safety of CTS ultrasound-guided HD, discussing and evaluating different techniques and modalities, and covering the most practical points of this technique with evidence-based recommendations for its use.

Published: January 2024

This paper presents a developed three-dimensional (3D) finite element model (FEM) of flexural and shearstrengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) T-beams using a CFRP (Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer) system combined by near-surface mounted (NSM) strips and U-wraps subjected by asymmetric loading. The 3D FEM was verified by experimental results. Concrete was simulated by a total-strain-based rotating smeared crack model. NSM CFRP strips and CFRP U-wrap sheets were modeled as shell elements. Steel reinforcement and NSM CFRP strips were embedded in concrete, corresponding to a perfect bond. U-wrap sheets were modeled as a shell element and bonded to the concrete surface using an interface element, considering appropriate bond properties. Four RC T-beams from an experimental work were analyzed, and predictions of the applied load-displacement curve and failure mode were presented to demonstrate the accuracy of the developed finiteelement analysis. It is shown that the finite element results of T-beams agree well with the experimental behavior in terms of applied load versus displacement and failure mode. Moreover, a parametric study was conducted to examine the influence of some design-oriented parameters such as concrete compressive strength, amount of longitudinal tension reinforcement, amount of stirrups, multiple layers of externally bonded (EXB) CFRP sheets, and flange width.

Published: January 2024

Developing outdoor spaces of schools towards green building criteria not only provides better learning and recreational conditions for pupils but also educates young generation about environmental conservation andsustainable development. In addition to new construction, renovation of existing outdoor spaces can expeditethe realization of these values while optimizing resource use. This paper explores the potential of outdoorlandscapes in public schools, ranging from primary to high school levels in Hanoi, with a particular focus onschools in need of renovation. The aim is to harness this potential to meet the increasingly urgent demands forgreen development. Contributing to this direction, the paper applied inheritance method to synthesis publishedresearch findings and applied observational methods to assess the current situation of outdoor spaces at publicschools in Hanoi, which served as the basis for identifying research issues. Practical experiences were analyzedand summarized in this paper to propose suitable solutions. Throughout the research process, three main greenbuilding criteria were identified: natural cooling and lighting; outdoor air quality and vegetation; sustainablewater and stormwater management. Together with this result, analyzing the actual investigation data of Hanoipublic schools helps the research team identify the renovation requirements. To meet these requirements andalign the three main green building criteria, four solution groups were proposed for typical cases: sunshadeenhancements, vegetation improvements and upgrades, drainage systems enhancements and water reuse, andsolutions to reduce the urban heat island effect.

Published: January 2024

The impact of the current social environment on people's consumption structure has made children's clothing an increasingly prominent strategic position in the competition in the clothing industry. To study the design dimensions of current children's clothing products, taking children's clothing products as the research object, a sample database and a vocabulary database related to design elements were constructed through market research methods. Initial data was obtained by observing, clustering, and sorting the collected 400 children's clothing samples in combination with the vocabulary database. The initial data was analysed using the factor analysis method in SPSS software, and three independent factors regarding the design dimensions of children's clothing products were extracted: aesthetic factors, care factors, and educational factors. Based on the research process and factor analysis results, we try to optimize the design of children's clothing products. The research results show that the design of children's clothing products is carried out from three dimensions: aesthetics, care and education. Also, the current children's clothing products have deficiencies in multiple design dimensions. Optimized design can be used as a guide for children's clothing design practitioners, and provide optimization directions for children's clothing practitioners to design in line with market development and children's growth needs.
