Key Points

X-ray phase-contrast imaging provides superior contrast to attenuation-based X-ray imaging with soft-tissue samples.X-ray phase-contrast tomography is a viable alternative to contrast-enhanced attenuation-based micro–computed tomography in laboratory-based kidney imaging.X-ray phase-contrast imaging could be a suitable method for screening and characterization of rodent renal pathologies.

Background
Structural analysis of soft biological tissues is conventionally conducted with destructive 2D histology. Three-dimensional information can be accessed with noninvasive imaging methods, such as X-ray micro–computed tomography (micro-CT). Although attenuation-based X-ray imaging alone does not provide reasonable contrast with soft-tissue samples, the combination with contrast-enhancing staining has proven effective. The staining process, however, comes with several disadvantages, such as tissue alterations and laboriousness. A novel X-ray imaging method known as phase-contrast imaging has emerged as an interesting alternative to contrast-enhanced micro-CT. Our objective was to show the feasibility of laboratory-based phase-contrast imaging in (murine) kidney research.

Methods
X-ray phase-contrast images of male rat kidneys were acquired with a Talbot-Lau interferometer. Moreover, attenuation-based X-ray images of the same unstained kidneys were acquired with a regular micro-CT device. Afterward, the kidneys were stained with phosphotungstic acid for several months. Attenuation-based micro-CT images were reacquired after the staining. Contrast-to-noise ratio was evaluated for all three cases.

Results
For unstained kidneys, the phase-contrast images show significantly improved contrast in comparison with attenuation images. Several key features, including the cortex, inner and outer medulla, papilla, as well as the main blood vessels, can be identified. While the contrast in attenuation images improves significantly after staining, the benefit is deteriorated by sample areas that the contrast agent did not reach properly, even after 206 days.

Conclusions
Our results indicate that X-ray phase-contrast imaging is a viable option for kidney imaging in a laboratory setting, providing comparable or better results than contrast-enhanced micro-CT. With imaging setups optimized for image resolution and faster imaging times, the advantages of phase-contrast imaging will be even greater.

Place du coénonciateur : une étude de ‑ndesu en japonais
Authors: Noda Hiroko 
Published: December 2024

Cet article vise à mettre en relief l’importance du coénonciateur, tel que défini par A. Culioli, à travers une étude sur les emplois de ‑ndesu en japonais. Le coénonciateur est une instance subjective qui constitue un pôle d’altérité subjective possible par rapport à l’énonciateur. Il est un paramètre fondamental, lorsque nous tentons de dégager et rendre compte des enjeux énonciatifs de ‑ndesu à partir des éléments linguistiques observables. L’intersubjectivité est liée à la mise en place ou non du coénonciateur par l’énonciateur et à leur prise de position par rapport à la notion prédicative. De nombreux emplois de ‑ndesu sont repérés dans la littérature. Mais nous tentons de comprendre pourquoi la même forme linguistique rend possible ses divers emplois, et proposons, ainsi, une caractérisation de ‑ndesu permettant de les cerner dans leur ensemble. Si nous admettons qu’une notion prédicative P puisse prendre une valeur positive p ou une autre valeur que p (notée p'), avec ‑ndesu, l’énonciateur en considérant p comme valable introduit p' comme valeur éventuellement valable pour le coénonciateur, mais valide finalement p en excluant cette possibilité que p' soit valable. Il est important de mobiliser le coénonciateur comme pôle d’altérité, car l’énonciateur ne peut être à la fois garant de p et de p'.

Authors: Divianto Divianto , Kamaludin Kamaludin , Santi Fitri , Saiful Saiful 
Published: December 2024

Purpose: This study examines the role of Intellectual Capital (IC), including Human Capital (HC), Structural Capital (SC), and Relationship Capital (RC), as moderating variables in the relationship between business efficiency and financial performance, measured by Return on Assets (ROA) and Return on Sales (ROS) in Creative Economy-based Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in Palembang City.
Method: Using financial data from MSMEs between 2020 and 2023, this study employs a quantitative approach and a survey method. The study population consisted of 1,233 MSMEs across 15 creative economy subcategories, guided by the Department of Industry and Trade of Palembang City. A total of 400 respondents were selected using Slovin's formula and purposive sampling. Data were collected through direct interviews and questionnaires and analyzed using the Panel Least Squares Method.
Results: The findings reveal that Business efficiency significantly influences ROA but not ROS. Human capital enhances the impact of business efficiency on both ROA and ROS, whereas customer capital does not strengthen this relationship. Structural capital boosts the effect of business efficiency on ROA but not on ROS.
Limitations: This study is confined to Palembang City and the creative economy MSME sector, necessitating cautious generalization to other regions or sectors. Future research should explore additional moderating variables beyond IC.
Contribution: This study contributes to the understanding of IC's role in enhancing business efficiency and its subsequent impact on the financial performance of creative economy-based MSMEs.
Novelty: This research highlights the critical importance of managing human capital and structural capital to improve financial outcomes, providing new insights into the factors influencing the performance of creative-economy MSMEs.

Леса-болотные территории являются частью водно-болотных угодий, которые являются участками земной поверхности, на которых вода играет важное значение, она влияет на состояние окружающей среды, условия жизни растений и животных. В этой статье основное внимание уделяется леса-болотных угодий, частью которых являются торфяники. Лесной пожар и загорание торфяника, являясь чрезвычайным событием на данной территории, вносит существенные изменения в динамику лесной экосистемы и вызывает тем самым воздействие на региональный климат. Наряду с этим он является стихийным бедствием для населения региона, приносящим большие экономические, а часто и человеческие, потери. Поэтому раннее обнаружение очагов загорания леса или торфяного болота и предупреждение об этом событии является актуальной задачей систем мониторинга окружающей среды. В работе анализируются вопросы радиотепловое излучение лесоболотных комплексов, лесных и торфяных пожаров.
Forest-wetlands are part of wetlands, which are areas of the earth's surface where water plays an important role, it affects the state of the environment, the living conditions of plants and animals. This article focuses on forest-wetlands, of which peatlands are part. Forest fire and peatland burning, being an emergency event in a given area, makes significant changes in the dynamics of the forest ecosystem and thereby causes an impact on the regional climate. Along with this, it is a natural disaster for the population of the region, causing great economic, and often human, losses. Therefore, early detection of fires in a forest or peat bog and warning of this event is an urgent task for environmental monitoring systems. The work analyzes the issues of radiothermal radiation from forest-swamp complexes, forest and peat fires.

ТЕНДЕНЦИИ РАЗВИТИЯ ЦИВИЛИЗАЦИИ И УСТОЙЧИВОЕ РАЗВИТИЕ
Authors: Мкртчян Ф.А. , Потапов И.И. 
Published: December 2024

В работе рассматриваются тенденции развития цивилизации на фоне устойчивого развития. Анализируется состояние современной цивилизации и отмечается, что она находится в состоянии системного кризиса, что неоднократно фиксировалось многими международными форумами. Выход из него видится в переходе к устойчивому развитию, но не мифическому, которое зафиксировано во множестве международных и национальных документах, а к реальному изменению вектора развития цивилизации. В какой то мере этот кризис связан с проблемой растущей концентрации углекислого газа в атмосфере, что вызывает обеспокоенность экономистов и политиков. Ведь предсказание последствий изменения глобального климата важно для выработки стратегий региональной и глобальной экономической и политической инициатив в будущем.
The paper examines the trends in the development of civilization against the backdrop of sustainable development. The state of modern civilization is analyzed and it is noted that it is in a state of systemic crisis, which has been repeatedly recorded by many international forums. The way out of it is seen in the transition to sustainable development, but not the mythical one, which is recorded in many international and national documents, but to a real change in the vector of development of civilization. To some extent, this crisis is related to the problem of growing concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, which is causing concern among economists and politicians. After all, predicting the consequences of global climate change is important for developing strategies for regional and global economic and political initiatives in the future.
Proposta de um modelo tátil para o ensino de Química Orgânica para deficientes visuais
Authors: Derossi Ingrid Nunes , Gonçalves Leila Kátia Silva 
Published: December 2024

Esta proposta tem como objetivo discorrer sobre a elaboração de um modelo didático que facilite o ensino de Química Orgânica para estudantes com deficiência visual e passível de aplicação para outras estruturas químicas. O ensino de Química muitas vezes se mostra de difícil compreensão por trabalhar conteúdos abstratos, o que ocasiona muitas dificuldades de aprendizagem para os estudantes da educação básica e superior, além de gerar visões equivocadas sobre essa ciência. Desta forma, destacamos a importância do uso de modelos didáticos táteis que possibilitam a percepção de estruturas moleculares na dimensão macroscópica, seja para alunos com deficiência visual ou normovisuais na área de química orgânica. Partimos de um sobrevôo pela literatura da área para mostrar a importância da educação inclusiva e as dificuldades de se compreender o ensino de Química, principalmente pela complexidade e constante uso de modelos teóricos apresentados apenas oralmente pelos docentes. O modelo didático tátil proposto aponta um caminho que contribui para o ensino de Química Orgânica, especificamente o conteúdo de hidrocarbonetos e com o rol de pesquisas que se dedicam a um ensino de Química mais inclusivo e produção de materiais didáticos
cinematografía mexicana como discurso nacional: las bases del antiyanquismo
Authors: Flores Moreno Marco Antonio 
Published: December 2024

Se mostrará cómo la cinematografía nacional transitó de ser una diversión para la oligarquía a un producto de consumo popular, ligado a la inversión estatal y a las necesidades de la política. Se podrá ver cómo desde el gobierno de Porfirio Díaz (Oaxaca, 1830-1915) hasta los inicios del gobierno de Manuel Ávila Camacho (Teziutlán, 1897-1955), se trató de articular un sentido de nacionalismo a través del cine. De esta manera, el gobierno trató de controlar los valores de la mexicanidad y dictar un papel a cada sector de la sociedad.
Evaluation of land resources for sustainable agricultural land use planning: A case study
Authors: Nagdev Ritu , Meena R.K. , Kumar Ashok , Joon Vikas , Surya Jaya N. 
Published: December 2024

Various soil and water constraints, such as impeded drainage and declining groundwater, along with sub-optimal input management and utilization practices, contribute to the lower agricultural productivity in the Rajpura block of the Patiala district, Punjab, compared to other areas of the state. Thus, an attempt has been made to evaluate the land resources of the block to explore the possibilities of diversified agricultural land uses. Site characteristics, limitations, and potentials revealed that the soils of the block belong to land capability subclasses IIs, IIse, IIIse, and IIIsw. Land capability subclass IIs constitutes the maximum area of the block, i.e., about 52.77%, followed by subclass IIIsw (22.89%), IIse (8.65%), and IIIse (1.68%), respectively. The soils of the block belong to land irrigability classes 1, 2sd, and 3sd. Land irrigability class 1 covers the maximum area of the block, i.e., 50.8%, followed by 2sd, which covers 33.51% of the area, while 3sd covers the minimum area (1.68%) of the block. Thus, based on the land capability and irrigability classifications, some management strategies were suggested to ensure better land utilization. Such strategies include the use of soil and water resources according to their capability instead of following non-scientific practices. The assessment of the Rajpura block's land is a crucial method for assessing the suitability of the soil and suggesting necessary management measures to boost agricultural output, which in turn promotes sustainable land use planning.
Diversity and flower-visiting frequency of insect pollinators associated with mustard blooms (Brassica campestris) in Kullu Valley, Himachal Pradesh
Authors: Kumar Kishor , Fartyal Rajendra Singh , Kanwal K.S. , Khanduri Shipra , Topal Pragya 
Published: December 2024

Present study was conducted in Mohal Khad, Kullu Valley, Himachal Pradesh, investigated the diversity and flower-visiting frequency of insect pollinators on mustard (Brassica campestris). The visual sampling method during the peak bloom of mustards recorded a total of 24 species of insect pollinators from 4 orders, 13 families, and 19 genera, with Hymenoptera being the dominant order, while Coleoptera had the least presence. The Indian honeybee (Apis cerana indica) was the most frequently observed visitor, highlighting its significant role in pollination. Mustards act as an essential foraging source for insect pollinators during early spring in temperate regions, where they bloom earlier than other temperate crops. The findings help emphasize the importance of mustard cultivation along with the conservation of native species, Apis cerana indica, over exotic ones for sustainable agriculture in the Himalayan region.
