Is Public Participation in Hydrogen Matters (Un)just? Evaluating the Ex-/inclusion of the Vulnerable and Marginalised Individuals in the Hydrogen Decision-Chains of the EU, Spain and Germany
Authors: Forns Gómez Alba , Rehage Ruben 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
The right to public participation was born as a right to participate in the decision making of policies, plans and projects potentially affecting the environmental protection. The latest European Union advancements on climate mitigation through the deployment of a green hydrogen transition can have effects on the environment and thus public participation shall have a role in tailoring the next hydrogen economy. Within the new currents of policy and scholarship, energy transitions should be just and include the vulnerable and/or marginalised individuals of society. Equitable and inclusive participatory processes ensure not only that environmental effects of a hydrogen economy are prevented but also that these unprivileged societal groups are part of the hydrogen transition. This article analyses to what extent disadvantaged groups of society are effectively included and can individually participate in the EU, Spain and Germany’s hydrogen decision-making chains. Instead of providing tailored measures for vulnerable individuals, the three jurisdictions apply a one-size-fits-all approach, i.e. treating everyone the same way, and thus, perpetrating (in)equality of opportunities in a hydrogen economy.
Accelerating Authorizations vs. Public Participation in the Decision-Making Chain of Renewable Hydrogen in Germany and Spain: a Dilemma
Authors: Rehage Ruben , Forns Gómez Alba 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
In order to accelerate the planning of renewable energy projects, the European Union and the Member States attribute legal constructs like ‘overriding public interest’ or ‘general or public interest’ to individual energy projects such as renewable hydrogen infrastructure. The aim of these constructs is to accelerate the authorization process. However, this is often at the expense of public participation, which creates an acceleration dilemma: Attempts to accelerate planning could provoke more resistance from the public, potentially slowing down the development and uptake of climate policies.

Background Workplace conflicts, especially in hospital environments, pose significant challenges to both staff productivity and well-being. The complex nature of healthcare environments, combined with diverse team dynamics, makes effective conflict management crucial. Previous studies suggest that structured educational interventions can help mitigate conflicts and foster better working conditions. Objective This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of educational interventions, specifically in conflict management and emotional intelligence training, on reducing workplace conflicts and improving coping strategies among hospital nurses. Methods The study involved four stages: (1) Problem identification through interviews and literature review, (2) Use of demographic data and conflict assessment tools including the Dobrin Job Conflict, Jehn's Interpersonal Conflict, and Putnam & Wilson's Conflict Management Strategies Questionnaire, (3) Conducting workshops focused on conflict resolution and emotional intelligence, and (4) Assessing the intervention's impact through paired t-tests and statistical analyses. Results The intervention significantly reduced relational, task-related, and procedural conflicts. Following the workshops, the use of non-confrontation and control strategies decreased, while problem-solving strategies became more prevalent. Correlation analysis indicated that demographic factors such as age and work experience significantly influenced the results. Conclusion Educational interventions, particularly in emotional intelligence, proved effective in reducing conflicts and improving conflict management strategies. This highlights the importance of continuous training programs aimed at enhancing workplace relations and productivity in hospital settings.
Measurement of Completeness and Timeliness of Linked Electronic Health Record Pharmacy Data for Early Detection of Nonadherence to Breast Cancer Adjuvant Endocrine Therapy
Authors: McPeek Chelsea , Paul Shirlene , Lieberenz Jordan , Levy Mia 
Published: December 2024

PURPOSE
This retrospective cohort study evaluated whether linked electronic health record (EHR) pharmacy data were adequately complete and timely to detect primary nonadherence to breast cancer adjuvant endocrine therapy (AET).

MATERIALS AND METHODS
Linked EHR pharmacy data were extracted from the EHR for patients with stage 0 to III breast cancer who had their first prescription order for AET between 2016 and 2021. Patients with the first dispense event within 90 days of the prescription were classified as having sufficient or insufficient data available for early detection of primary adherence.

RESULTS
A total of 1,446 eligible patients had a first AET prescription order between 2016 and 2021; these orders were routed to 871 unique pharmacies, of which 856 (98.2%) were contracted with the linked EHR pharmacy database and 15 (1.8%) were not contracted. Among the 1,428 patients with a first prescription sent to a contract pharmacy, 164 (13%) had incomplete linked EHR pharmacy data refresh events to assess primary adherence. Among the 1,244 patients with at least 1 refresh event after their first prescription, 82% occurred within 90 days and were sufficiently timely for early detection of primary adherence. Overall, 32% of patients would benefit from an intervention to verify or improve primary adherence to AET.

CONCLUSION
Although linked EHR pharmacy data have adequate completeness of contract pharmacy data, local configurations of data refresh events tailored to medication reconciliation workflows are incomplete (13%) and insufficiently timely (32%) to fully support clinical decision support (CDS) for early detection of primary medication nonadherence. Prospective CDS interventions using linked EHR pharmacy data are possible with enhancements to the frequency and timeliness of refresh events.
Fayzi's Planetary Poetics
Authors: Mikkelson Jane 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This article recovers a theory of poetry articulated by the Indian poet laureate Abul Fayz Fayzi (d. 1595) in “The White Tide of Dawn” (“Tabashir-i subh”), the Persian prose preface to his collected poems. Fayzi's oblique style of thought wanders through shifting metaphors and lyrical prose, and his creative mode of exposition scales up into what this article calls Fayzi's planetary poetics—a way of recognizing, through poetry, how experience, language, and the pursuit of truth are constrained by the earthbound nature of human perspective. Fayzi's theory maintains canny clarity about such limitations, regarding poetry as a form capacious (and honest) enough to accommodate inquiry's ambitions and failures. Reading Fayzi alongside scientific, philosophical, and literary-theoretical texts widely available in early modern India, this article shows how key leitmotifs in Fayzi's essay (the mathematical concept of the Earth's center; the desert as space of discovery and transformation; the lunar eclipse) come together in a powerful compact of hubris, fragility, and creativity. Fayzi's planetary poetics actuates multiple senses of “theory” (as a set of principles; as a way of seeing; as a means to freedom) and offers a compelling, important contribution to ongoing discussions about the ghazal, the lyric, and poetry itself.
The Ethics of Decolonization
Authors: Abu-Lughod Lila 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Sampling from the “Indigenous turn” in anthropology, this article asks what might be relevant for our thinking about the politics and ethics of social research practices in the Middle East/North Africa (MENA) region from the decolonizing efforts of those working in New Zealand, Hawaii, Bolivia, and Native America. It begins with Linda Tuhiwai Smith's 1999 classic Decolonizing Methodologies: Research and Indigenous Peoples and her judgment that “from the vantage point of the colonized . . . the term ‘research’ is inextricably linked to European imperialism and colonialism.” Decolonizing means shifting the focus from the power/knowledge formations and questions of representation that Edward Said's work highlighted for those of us in MENA studies toward the ethics of social research itself and the silences on the political contexts that shape research and make research possible. If we were to transpose the practical ethical questions about the methods and purposes of social research, imagining our research subjects as analogous to “Indigenous” people in settler-colonial states insofar as they are living in the region or coming from the region under study—despite their diversity of location, class, ethnicity, religion, social capital, political power, living conditions, and possibilities, not to mention experiences of displacement, coercion, and violence—how would the decolonial impulse translate?
The Caste Question in East Pakistan and Bangladesh
Authors: Ghose Rajarshi , Ray Utsa 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
In the wake of the United Nations “World Conference against Racism, Racial Discrimination, Xenophobia, and Related Intolerance” held in Durban in 2001, many nongovernmental organizations initiated advocacy campaigns against caste-based discrimination, highlighting the social and economic hardships experienced by Dalit communities in Bangladesh. This article demonstrates that there is a longer history of engagements with the caste question among social scientists in East Pakistan and Bangladesh; however, the endemic practice of identifying caste inequity exclusively with Hinduism often resulted in advocacy campaigns and the social sciences subsuming Dalit experiences into the social predicament of Hindus as a religious minority group. The decoupling of caste and religious minorities in the political and social domains in the aftermath of advocacy campaigns has led to renewed efforts to acknowledge the singularity of Dalit experience in contemporary Bangladesh.
The Whirl of Permutation
Authors: Ball Kevin D. 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
In The Red, White & Black, Frank B. Wilderson III uses a chess analogy to describe the way in which blackness is positioned outside of the chessboard of the human subject, thereby granting shape and substance to its integral pieces. Thinking alongside this analogy, this article examines the life and games of Theophilus A. Thompson, a black chess problemist (a composer of chess puzzles) born into slavery in 1855. The article focuses on Thompson's 1872 book Chess Problems, which is comprised almost exclusively of board diagrams and conditions for solving each problem. The article reads Thompson's work as a philosophical and gamic critique of the prevailing logic that regards play as a space of consent and escape. Contrary to Eurocentric theories and commonsense notions that align play with leisure, the article examines the racial duress that shaped Thompson's extraliterary work and his authorial position as a problemist. Furthermore, the article brings the archival resonances of this duress to bear on Thompson's work with the self-mate problem, in which one's king (the invaluable object of competitive chess) is systematically put to the sword. The article frames these self-mate problems as a black theorization of play, rendered in chess aesthetics, that imagines both game and world radically undone.
Alberta Whittle
Authors: Cuthbertson Tom 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Scottish-Barbadian artist Alberta Whittle continues to develop a rich, urgent, and far-ranging creative practice that combines elements of installation, film, sculpture, written word, and performance. Her work is preoccupied with the reverberating afterlives of slavery and colonialism, with our relationship to the natural world and to the imminence of environmental catastrophe, with the dynamics of kinship and intergenerational testimony, and with the radical possibilities that reside in expressions of care and compassion, for self and others. This article considers a recent digital video work by Whittle, between a whisper and a cry (2019). In her video, Whittle approaches the shifting waters of the Atlantic Ocean in part as a fluid repository or archive for the traumas of the Middle Passage. Responding particularly to influential critical formulations found in the work of Christina Sharpe, Whittle also explores how the wake left behind by such violent histories continues to buffet the Caribbean, exposing the region and those who live there disproportionately to the intensifying effects of extreme weather. Against a backdrop of accelerating ecological crisis, Whittle's work urges us to consider a worsening climate in which forms of antiblackness flow from past to present to uncertain future, but, crucially, she also asks how this storm might potentially be weathered.
Chemical Necromancy
Authors: Angus Siobhan 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This article examines the historical formation of environmental sacrifice zones, using Louisiana's Cancer Alley as a case study by focusing on the relationship between cotton and the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries. Corporate communications before World War II often portrayed cotton as integrated into the growing chemicals industry, positioning petrochemicals as a successor to the plantation economy. By analyzing visual culture within corporate communication, the article investigates how corporate visual representations normalize industrial development despite its creation of toxic landscapes.

ABSTRACT
Developing animals are increasingly exposed to elevated temperatures as global temperatures rise as a result of climate change. Vertebrates can be affected by elevated temperatures during development directly, and indirectly through maternal effects (e.g. exposure to prenatal glucocorticoid hormones). Past studies have examined how elevated temperatures and glucocorticoid exposure during development independently affect vertebrates. However, exposure to elevated temperatures and prenatal corticosterone could have interactive effects on developing animals that affect physiology and life-history traits across life. We tested interactions between incubation temperature and prenatal corticosterone exposure in the delicate skink (Lampropholis delicata). We treated eggs with high or low doses of corticosterone and incubated eggs at 23°C (cool) or 28°C (warm). We measured the effects of these treatments on development time, body size and survival from hatching to adulthood and on adult hormone levels and mitochondrial respiration. We found no evidence for interactive effects of incubation temperature and prenatal corticosterone exposure on phenotype. However, incubation temperature and corticosterone treatment each independently decreased body size at hatching and these effects were sustained into the juvenile period and adulthood. Lizards exposed to low doses of corticosterone during development had elevated levels of baseline corticosterone as adults. Additionally, lizards incubated at cool temperatures had higher levels of baseline corticosterone and more efficient mitochondria as adults compared with lizards incubated at warm temperatures. Our results show that developmental conditions can have sustained effects on morphological and physiological traits in oviparous lizards but suggest that incubation temperature and prenatal corticosterone do not have interactive effects.

Published: December 2024

This randomized controlled study aimed to compare surgical duration, intra-operative blood loss, and fluoroscopy time between the suprapatellar and infrapatellar approaches for intramedullary interlocking nailing of tibia. We included 40 adult patients with tibial shaft fractures, excluding those with non-union, revision surgery, or polytrauma. Patients were divided equally into two groups using block randomization: Group A (20 patients) underwent the infrapatellar approach, and Group B (20 patients) underwent the suprapatellar approach. Blood loss was measured using gravimetric method and by changes in pre-operative and post operative haemoglobin levels. Surgical duration was estimated by calculating the time elapsed between the start and end of the procedure and fluoroscopy time was logged from the fluoroscopy machine.In group A, blood loss averaged 154±30.98ml, slightly more than in group B (150±32.92ml), though the difference was not statistically significant (p>0.05). Group A also showed a higher difference in haemoglobin levels (2.20±1.13 gm/dl) compared to group B (1.15±0.93 gm/dl), which was statistically significant (p=0.02). Fluoroscopy time and surgery duration were slightly longer in group A compared to group B but not statistically significant(p=0.693).The suprapatellar approach results in lesser blood loss, potentially promoting faster recovery, reduced need for blood transfusions and shorter hospital stays. It also entails shorter fluoroscopy time and surgical duration (though not statistically significant) which may reduce radiation exposure for the surgical team.

ObjectivesAs per NICE guidance, one of the cornerstones of management of AKI is risk assessment. Aim of the audit is to identify the potential risk factors for postoperative AKI in hip fracture patients.Design and MethodsUsing local NOF registration data, Patient details were selected using inclusion and exclusion criteria. Electronic records of patients were assessed retrospectively including blood results, radiological investigations, clinical documentation and drug chart. Inclusion Criteria: All patients > 50 years old with NOF fractures underwent operative management from January 2022 to June 2022 Exclusion Criteria: 1- Pathological fractures. 2- Non-operative management. 3- Died directly postoperative.Results250 patients underwent hip fracture surgery at our hospital in 6 months (January 2022-June 2022) (Cemented Procedures were 133 (53 %) while Fixation procedures were 117 (47%)).Female patients were 174 (70%), and male were 76 patients. Average age was 83.4 years and number of operations done over Weekend (Friday-Sunday) = 123 (49%).The incidence of Postoperative AKI was 56 (22.4%). Forty-five from fifty-six cases were stage 1 (80.4%) while 7 cases (12.5%) were stage 2.The studied risk factors for Postoperative AKI were: cemented procedures (61% of postoperative AKI incidence), female Gender (66%), time from admission to operation (>24 hours =33 %), day of operation (operations done Friday/Saturday/Sunday = 55%) and Postoperative antibiotics (71%)ConclusionWe need strategies to reduce incidence of postoperative AKI like: AKI alert on laboratory results, IV fluid prescription preoperative since arrival of patients to ED, avoid/stop nephrotoxic medications on admission, regular review of postoperative U&Es and fluid balance especially in high-risk patients, increase nursing staff and junior doctors on wards over weekends and we need to review our policy of giving postoperative IV antibiotics.

ObjectivesSeveral studies have reported elevated blood cobalt (Co) and chromium (Cr) concentrations in patients with total knee replacements (TKRs). Up to 44% of tissue samples taken from patients with failed TKRs exhibit histological evidence of metal sensitivity/ALVAL. In simulated conditions, metal particles contribute approximately 12% of total wear debris in TKR. We carried out this investigation to determine the source and quantity of metal release in TKRs.Design and MethodsWe analysed 225 explanted fixed-bearing TKRs (Attune, Genesis II, NexGen, PFC, and Vanguard) revised for any indication. These were analysed using peer-reviewed [coordinate measuring machine (CMM)] methodology to measure the volumetric wear of the polyethylene (PE) bearing surfaces and trays. The trays were analysed using 2D profilometry (surface roughness-Ra) and light microscopy. Histological and blood metal ion concentration analyses were performed in a sub-sample of patients.ResultsThe median (IQR) PE wear rate was 14 (6 to 20) mm3/year. Microscopic examination of the superior surface of trays exhibited pitting on 132 (59%) of trays. There was a statistically significant (p<0.05) increase in Rvk on the pitted area of trays for each design, indicating material removal from the pits compared to the unpitted area. The inferior surface of 116(51%) of trays displayed polishing, indicative of abrasive wear. The median(range) Co and Cr concentrations were 2.5µg/l (0.2–69.4) and 1.7µg/l (0.5-12.5) respectively in 40 patients. Of the tissue samples examined in 30 patients, 6 had at least “mild”-ALVAL infiltrate. All corresponding “ALVAL” explants were found to be pitted and/or show evidence of loosening of the tray.ConclusionThis study provides further evidence that CoCr release in TKR appears to be an under-appreciated cause of adverse clinical outcomes. The generation of metal particles was predominantly from the metal tray, which may explain elevated metal ions after TKRs, despite no direct metal-on-metal contact.
