Metamorphoses of the Lithuanian Environmental Thought: From the Onset through Enlightenment to Romanticism
Authors: Davidavičius Mantas Antanas
Published: July 2023

This article treats the Enlightenment and Romanticism as ways of understanding the world (rather than chronologically defined intellectual movements). The article discusses the main philosophical attributes of these worldviews. It demonstrates how shifts from the symbolical reasoning to the Enlightenment, as well as from the Enlightenment to the Romanticism, transformed the Lithuanians’ relations to the natural surroundings. The article also underscores close connections between literature, philosophy and the Lithuanian environmental practices (i. e. environmental laws, and institutions of environmental protection). For this purpose literary examples (such as works by M. Hussovianus, H. D. Thoreau and P. Mérimée), as well as a tale about a boy raised by the bears in Lithuanian woods, are examined in the light of philosophical tendencies and political transformations. The article shows that the Enlightenment, a project based on rationalization and secularization of the world (an attempt to eliminate symbolical reasoning) brought with itself a view of nature as a resource, and a plan to reconstruct nature alonside the industrial model. The environmental protection of the Enlightenment was a science of optimizing the exploitation. The article shows that Romanticism was a rebellion against the Enlightenment, offering a new type of environmental protection: namely, protecting the nature as useful in-itself, and protecting it from the humans.

IMPLEMENTATION OF RECORDING OF FINANCIAL REPORTS IN MSMEs NORTH SURABAYA REGION “EASTERN PHILOSOPHY POINT OF VIEW”
Authors: Africa Laely Aghe
Published: July 2023

Indonesia's economic pattern is experiencing quite pronounced turmoil after the case of the Covid-19 pandemic that occurred in early 2020 until now, which has impacted the national and even global economy. The achievements expected by the government have not been fully fulfilled because many business sectors have experienced the effects of a decrease in extraordinary performance, especially micro, small and medium enterprises, which do not rule out the possibility of having bank loans dependent and unable to pay. The number of MSMEs in the Surabaya area is approximately 60,000 MSMEs, and they are spread throughout all regions in Surabaya; the growth of MSMEs in the North Surabaya area is increasing, but when affected by the pandemic, many MSMEs have experienced a decline because there are so many schools that do not organize offline learning and some offices also implement Work From Home as well as several universities. The current situation that is starting to come under control makes MSMEs try to grow again; this paper aims to determine the extent to which financial reports are used, whether records are made systemically or manually, and payment methods and whether MSMEs provide concessions to their payment system. The total sample is approximately 104 MSMEs spread across North Surabaya, Semolowaru District. The survey results will be described descriptively. The survey results show that as many as 61 SMEs have an average food/beverage business, daily needs (laundry, washing motorbikes, selling credit), clothing, food/groceries, and others. Most MSMEs voluntarily make simple financial reports, while many do not. Some businesses systematically record transactions, and others manually.

Impact of urban land use on mean and heavy rainfall during the Indian Summer Monsoon
Authors: Falga Renaud , Wang Chien
Published: July 2023

Abstract. Northern India has been subjected to an intense urbanization since the middle of the twentieth century. The impact of such a drastic land-use change on regional weather and climate remains to be assessed. In this work, we study the impact of the modification of land-use – from vegetation to urban – on the Indian summer monsoon rainfall, as well as other meteorological variables. We use the regional meteorology model Meso-NH coupled with an urban module (the Town Energy Balance model) to perform month-long sensitivity simulations centered around Kolkata, the most urbanized area in Northeastern India. Paired simulations, one with and another without urban settings have been performed to identify the impacts related to urbanization through both thermodynamic and kinetic effects. We find that the perturbation induced by urban land-use enhances the mean rainfall over the model domain, principally by intensifying the convective activity through thermodynamical perturbation, leading to an increase of 14.4 % of the monthly mean rainfall. In addition, the modeling results demonstrate that not only does the urban area act in general as a rainfall enhancer, particularly during nighttime, but it also induces the generation of a specific storm in one modeled case that would not have formed in the absence of the urban area. This storm initiation over the city was done primarily by urban terrain’s disturbance of the near surface wind flow, leading to a surge of dynamically produced turbulent kinetic energy (TKE). The thermal production of TKE over the nighttime urban boundary layer, on the other hand, serves as a contributing factor to the storm formation.
Retrieval of SWE from dual-frequency radar measurements: Usingtimeseries to overcome the need for accurate a priori information
Authors: Durand Michael , Johnson Joel T. , Dechow Jack , Tsang Leung , Borah Firoz , Kim Edward J.
Published: July 2023

Abstract. Measurements of radar backscatter are sensitive to snow water equivalent (SWE) across a wide range of frequencies, motivating proposals for satellite missions to measure global distributions of SWE. However, radar backscatter measurements are also sensitive to snow stratigraphy, microstructure and to surface roughness, complicating SWE retrieval. A number of recent advances have created new tools and datasets with which to address the retrieval problem, including a parameterized relationship between SWE, microstructure, and radar backscatter, and methods to characterize surface scattering. Although many algorithms also introduce external (prior) information on SWE or snow microstructure, the precision of the prior datasets used must be high in some cases in order to achieve accurate SWE retrieval. We hypothesize that a time series of radar measurements can be used to solve this problem, and demonstrate that SWE retrieval with acceptable error characteristics is achievable by using previous retrievals as priors for subsequent retrievals. We demonstrate the accuracy of three configurations of the prior information: using a global SWE model, using the previously retrieved SWE, and using a weighted average of the model and the previous retrieval. We assess the robustness of the approach by quantifying the sensitivity of the SWE retrieval accuracy to SWE biases artificially introduced in the prior. We find that the retrieval with the weighted averaged prior demonstrates SWE accuracy better than than 20 %, and an error increase of only 3 % relative RMSE per 10 % change in prior bias; the algorithm is thus both accurate and robust. This finding strengthens the case for future radar-based satellite missions to map SWE globally.

Adrenal incidentalomas (AIs) are defined as adrenal masses incidentally discovered on imaging studies performed for unrelated reasons. AIs have become a common finding in clinical practice, particularly with the widespread application of high-resolution imaging techniques. While most AIs are nonfunctioning and benign, some cases can represent a clinical concern due to the risk of malignancy or hormone hyperfunction. The prevalence of AIs varies depending on the source of data and patient selection. The diagnosis of AIs relies on a combination of radiological, biochemical, and clinical evaluation to determine the functional status of the tumor and the potential for malignancy. The management of AIs remains a subject of controversy, with guidelines providing conflicting recommendations on the indications for surgical intervention and follow-up. Most AIs do not require surgical intervention, but appropriate follow-up is essential to detect any potential growth or functional changes. In cases where surgery is indicated, laparoscopic adrenalectomy is the gold standard, with open adrenalectomy reserved for masses highly suspicious for adrenal cortical carcinoma. A multidisciplinary approach involving endocrinologists, radiologists, and surgeons is crucial for optimal management of AIs.

The effect of the COVID19 pandemic on the financial stability of the banking industry: the case of Eurasian Economic Union countries
Authors: Utarova G. , Faizulayev A.
Published: July 2023

The purpose of research is to identify the influence of bank-specific and macroeconomic variables on banking sector stability in the case of Eurasian Economic Union countries. For this purpose, it uses KASE and World Bank Database. The data was received from 10 commercial banks of the Eurasian Economic Union countries (Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Azerbaijan, and Armenia) that cover the period 20162021.

Methodology is the panel corrected standard error model (PCSE) to observe the relation of dependent and independent variables. Altman Z-score is used as an indicator of financial stability. Return of assets (ROA) is an indicator of company profitability.

The originality / value of the research is a comparison of the factors that influence the stability and profitability of the banking industry in Eurasian Economic Union countries.

The estimation findings of the research indicate that bank-specific and macroeconomic strongly impact the financial stability in the banking sector. For example, asset quality and corruption control are significantly and negatively related with banks' stability. On the other hand, return on assets (ROA), bank size, political stability, and time dummy effect on the stability of the banking system are positive and statistically significant.
The impact of consumer credit on the stability of the banking system: analysis of economic and psychological factors
Authors: Kanagatova D. B. , Kenzhegaliyeva N. S.
Published: July 2023

The purpose of the research is to determine the impact of consumer lending on bank sustainability and to assess its dependence on economic indicators.

Methodology. The research methodology is based on qualitative and quantitative approaches. The methods of regression analysis, transformation of analytical data mapping, analysis and synthesis were used in the article.

Originality / value of the research lies in the fact that the authors have determined the dependence of consumer lending on both macroeconomic and psychological factors on the basis of calculations.

Findings. The authors, through econometric calculations, obtained the consumer function as the main indicator of aggregate demand, which affects economic growth. They revealed a low dependence of consumer credit on: interest rate, average monthly income of the population and inflation. The result of multiple regression showed that macroeconomic factors explained only 43,3 % of consumer credit growth. Along with this, the authors identified a significant impact of consumer credit on imports and gross value added of trade.

Based on qualitative analysis, the authors calculated the Consumer Sentiment Index (CCI), based on a survey of 128 respondents. The survey found that consumers are optimistic and highly susceptible to psychological instruments of influence, such as marketing and promotions. Also, the authors believe that the perception of debt burden and credit availability influenced the dramatic growth of this banking product.

Arguing their assumptions by citing contemporary research by economists, the authors determined that changes in demand for consumer credit are determined more by psychological factors than economic ones. The increase in household final expenditures was due to an increase in consumer credit, which stimulated aggregate demand in the short run and thereby influenced economic growth. At the same time, in recent years in Kazakhstan, lending to households has outpaced lending to industries and the ratio of household debt to GDP has been increasing. This trend may lead in the long run to bank defaults and economic recession in the country. Based on this, the authors have proposed some recommendations to address these problems.
Knowledge management as a basis for modern innovations
Authors: Pankratova A. V. , Nikiforova N. V. , Khan I. G.
Published: July 2023

Contemporary global challenges engender the necessity of developing new approaches to management. Currently, companies compete not just with goods and services but with knowledge and abilities to effectively utilize them.

Purpose of the research. This article aims at examining the conceptual and categorical apparatus of the studied topic and building initial grounds for knowledge management understanding.

Methodology. The paper presents a comprehensive literature review of preceding research on knowledge management in peer-reviewed journals of various electronic databases since 1987, including using «Harzing's Publish or Perish» software. In addition, research works in philosophy, sociology, economics, information systems, and other sciences were studied. Based on the research results, the concepts of «data», «information», «knowledge» and "knowledge management" were structured.

Originality / value. Knowledge management as one of the relatively new types of management arouses interest from representatives of the scientific and business community along with skepticism about its uniqueness, necessity, and basically about its semantic component. This is especially noticeable in the works of information management scholars. However, researchers in the field of innovation associate knowledge management in companies with the possibility of obtaining a competitive advantage.

Findings. The study showed that considering the above-mentioned concepts as synonymous was a misconception, this leads to a misinterpretation of the object of management - knowledge, and, thus, forms a superficial idea of the function and activity of knowledge management managers. The study of the relationship between people, business processes, IT technologies, corporate culture, and other factors within the knowledge management system in the company should be the next step to continue this research.

Beneficial Effect of Sustainable Magnetic Treatment of Tap Water Investigations with Cultivated Intestinal Epithelial Cells
Authors: Dartsch Peter C.
Published: July 2023

(Electro)magnetic fields have been used as a tap water treatment since more than 60 years to prevent water pipe walls from the unwanted deposition of calcium carbonate. In the meantime a lot of research has been done on the effects of magnetic or electromagnetic treatment of water. Most of them deal with physiochemical aspects and only a few report on biological effects on prokaryotes or cultured mammalian cells. Intestinal health plays a key role in respect to systemic health and the intestinal epithelial barrier comes directly into contact with drinking water, the effect of magnetic tap water treatment on the integrity of the intestinal epithelial barrier was investigated by measurement of the transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER). Moreover, the sensitivity of the intestinal epithelial barrier against oxidative stress was investigated. Since the regeneration process of intestinal epithelial cells is essential for the reconstitution and maintenance of the barrier integrity after injury or traumatization in vivo, this aspect was also examined with water ± magnetic treatment. The animal cell line IPEC-J2 was used for the investigations. Local tap water (= initial source water) was obtained before and after magnetic treatment with water core magnets which show a very weak field strength with high magnetic gradients as a special characteristic. TEER increased by 28.5 ± 6.8% after incubation with the tap water with magnetic treatment when compared to the initial tap water (mean value ± standard deviation; p ≤ 0.01 by the two-tailed Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney rank sum test). Measurement of TEER after oxidative stress showed no marked difference between both tap water samples ± magnetic treatment. In both experimental series there was a significant reduction in TEER by more than 90 % representing a leaky intestinal epithelial cell layer due to oxidative stress. Despite this fact the number of cells in the initial tap water sample was largely decreased whereas the cell density in the treated water samples was much higher. The magnetic treatment of the tap water improved the regeneration of the intestinal epithelial cells by 17.4 ± 7.2% (mean value ± standard deviation; p ≤ 0.05 by the two-tailed Wilcoxon-Mann-Whitney rank sum test) when compared with the initial tap water. The results of the study demonstrate that the water core magnets as used here are able to influence tap water and, subsequently, induce beneficial cellular effects on cultured intestinal epithelial cells. Thus, the tap water with magnetic treatment might be able to promote and maintain intestinal and systemic health in vivo.
A Pandemic of Retained Forgotten Stents
Authors: Ram Prasanna , T Vasudevan , Philipraj Joseph
Published: July 2023

Purpose: To review the management of a forgotten/ retained double J stent and attempt to suggest protocols to prevent this scenario. Materials & methods: We included 12 patients with forgotten DJ stents who had their primary surgery done at our hospital between September 2019 and March 2021 and were unable to follow up due to the lockdown imposed for the COVID19 pandemic. Results: Twelve patients underwent their forgotten DJ stent removal by a combination of ESWL, cystolithotripsy, and percutaneous nephrolithotomy. All the patients achieved complete clearance of the encrustations/stone and removal of forgotten DJ stent in a single sitting. Conclusion: A forgotten DJ stent with encrustations and stone formation is a serious urological problem for the patient and the treating doctor. A stent is usually said to be forgotten if the indwelling time period is more than 3-6 months which was not intended by the treating doctor. In our series, the management and intervention depended on the patients' preop status, the severity of the encrustations, location, and the size of the stone. In patients with moderate-to-severe encrustations and stone presence, procedures such as CLT, ureteroscopy, and PCNL were performed. Forgotten/retained stents are a source of severe morbidity and additional/unnecessary hospitalization. In our series, we suggested a few protocols that could be followed in order to prevent a forgotten DJ stent.

As redes de distribuição de água (WDN) são consideradas fonte renovável potencial, apresentando energia de pressão mais que suficiente para entregar água aos usuários. Para controlar a pressão excessiva, comumente as WDN são divididas em áreas de medição distrital (DMA), com válvulas redutoras de pressão (PRV). A energia desperdiçada pelas PRV pode ser recuperada por bombas como turbinas (PAT). Entretanto, a seleção da bomba adequada ainda é um desafio, pois devem-se considerar as mudanças diárias de pressão e vazão dos consumidores (off-design). Neste artigo, uma combinação de modelos foi validada e aplicada para selecionar a bomba adequada para operar em uma WDN real. A substituição de duas PRV por PAT de uma rede real previamente dividida em duas DMA, operando em velocidade constante, foi investigada. As análises econômica e ambiental também foram efetuadas. A PAT1 foi tecnicamente melhor que PAT2, que apresentou pressão de saída negativa, prejudicando a pressão na DMA2. As melhores eficiências só ocorrem nas vazões no melhor ponto de eficiência da bomba ou próximo a ele, reproduzindo o controle da pressão como se fossem as próprias válvulas. A melhor bomba recuperou 4.331 kWh/ano, o equivalente à redução de 1.732.400 gCO2/ano, atendendo duas casas categorizadas como baixa renda. A utilização de PAT mostrou-se uma alternativa viável, com período de retorno de 2,1 anos, uma vez que é capaz de recuperar a energia renovável. Contudo, para o controle efetivo da pressão em WDN, devem-se buscar outras estratégias de operação, como a operação em velocidade variável.
Wellbeing fostered by design: a framework for evaluating indoor environment performance
Authors: Croffi Juliana , Kroll David , Soebarto Veronica , Barrie Helen , McDougall Kelly
Published: July 2023

High-rise urban development has been controversial for its inability to foster cohesive and flourishing neighbourhoods. A social value perspective can help to better understand and evaluate how new developments in dense urban settings affect places and communities. While the link between wellbeing and social value is well-established in the literature, the question of how design can affect wellbeing and thus contribute to the social value of a development still requires further research and clarification. A better understanding of this relationship can assist architects, developers or consultants during the design process. A review is presented of relevant quantifiable aspects of building design that affect wellbeing in relation to the indoor environment and to social value specifically. A framework for fostering wellbeing is developed to test these aspects and evaluate the indoor environment performance. A case study building is used to analyse the relationship between building design and wellbeing. These lessons can be used to inform and evaluate building design during the design phases to complement the assessment of qualitative factors within a social value framework.
Practice relevance
This study identifies quantifiable aspects of the indoor environment affecting wellbeing in a high-rise development that can form part of a social value framework. This list of identified aspects provides a useful starting point for architects or consultants to assess designs. The indicators relate to quantifiable indoor environment aspects that can be directly controlled by building design and complement the broader concepts of wellbeing within a social value framework. The paper demonstrates how these aspects can be quantified in a case study mixed-use urban development as part of a post-occupancy evaluation. These quantifiable aspects could be integrated within digital tools to evaluate the building at the design stage to ensure that wellbeing is at the forefront of the project considerations.

Bu araştırmanın temel amacı taekwondo sporcularının ciddi boş zaman (CBZ) katılım düzeylerinin incelenmesi ve kişilik özellikleri bakımından aralarındaki farklılıkların araştırılmasıdır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak Ciddi ve Kayıtsız Boş Zaman Ölçeği ve Sıfatlara Dayalı Kişilik Testi kullanılmıştır. 2019 yılı Taekwondo Şampiyonalarına katılan 150 taekwondo milli takım sporcusuna kolayda örnekleme yöntemiyle ulaşılarak çalışmaya ilişkin veriler toplanmıştır. Taekwondo sporcularını CBZ katılım düzeylerine göre sınıflandırmak amacıyla kümeleme analizi yapılmış ve ortaya çıkan kümelere ait kişilik özellikleri arasındaki farklılıkların incelenmesi amacıyla MANOVA kullanılmıştır. MANOVA analizi sonucu kümelerin kişilik özellikleri bakımından aralarında anlamlı farklılıkların olduğu görülmektedir. Kümeleme analizi sonuçları incelendiğinde, CBZ katılım düzeylerine göre taekwondo sporcularının iki kümeden oluştuğu ortaya çıkmış ve oluşan kümeler “yüksek düzey mücadeleciler” (YDM) ve “orta düzey mücadeleciler” (ODM) olarak adlandırılmıştır. Sonuç olarak CBZ katılımı arttıkça ciddi boş zaman katılımcısı olarak taekwondocuların daha sorumluluk sahibi, dışadönük, deneyime açık ve yumuşak başlı oldukları ve daha düşük düzeyde nevrotik bireyler oldukları ortaya çıkmıştır.

Role of Fungi in Biodegradation of Bisphenol A: A Review
Authors: Kristanti Risky Ayu , Ningsih Fitria , Yati Indri , Kasongo Joseph , Mtui Elias , Rachana Kong
Published: July 2023

Bisphenol A (BPA) is recognized as an endocrine disruptor, capable of interfering with the normal functioning of hormones within the body by mimicking the effects of estrogen. Drinking water is one of the most common pathways of exposure to BPA as it can permeate plastic products and other materials, entering water sources. This article presents a comprehensive overview of BPA, including its incidence, origins, environmental fate, its impact on human health, and the role of fungi in the biodegradation of BPA. Fungi are natural decomposers, capable of breaking down organic compounds, including BPA, under suitable conditions. Studies have demonstrated that specific species of fungi can effectively biodegrade BPA. Some fungi utilize ligninolytic enzymes, such as laccases and peroxidases, to break down the phenolic rings of BPA. Other fungi employ non-ligninolytic enzymes, such as esterases and hydrolases, to cleave the ester linkages in BPA. Furthermore, some fungi can break down BPA via cometabolic pathways, whereby the chemical is degraded as a side reaction to the degradation of another substrate. The use of immobilized enzymes for BPA degradation has also demonstrated potential. Immobilized enzymes are those that are attached to a solid support, such as a polymer or matrix, allowing them to be used multiple times and enhance their stability and catalytic activity

Objetivos: El estudio se propuso medir el impacto de un entrenamiento sobre formulación pericial del caso forense en salud mental y extender evidencias relacionadas con la confiabilidad de la TEC-F. Método: Nueve psiquiatras y seis psicólogos de diversos países latinoamericanos participaron de un cuasi-experimento pedagógico. Se midió independientemente y a ciegas la calidad de las formulaciones con la TEC-F pre y post intervención y también se manipuló aleatoriamente la asignación de dos viñetas estándares. Se calcularon diferencias de medias e indicadores de confiabilidad del instrumento. Resultados: Los valores de coeficientes de correlación intraclase fueron 0,92; 0,94; 0,83; 0,93 y 0,95 y los valores del coeficiente Alfa de Cronbach fueron 0,83; 0,94; 0,63; 0,77 y 0,93, para las dimensiones transparencia, especificidad, comunicación, fundamentación y para el total TEC-F respectivamente. Los resultados del test-retest a 19 días fueron excelentes. La media de calidad total TEC-F precurso fue 31,4 y la media post curso, 38,4 (p = 0,003 y p = 0,001 para prueba grupal y para prueba apareada respectivamente). Conclusiones: La intervención pedagógica produjo una significativa mejoría en la calidad de las formulaciones periciales. El estudio adicionó evidencias sosteniendo la confiabilidad de la TEC-F.
