Published: October 2024

Abstract. Flash floods, characterized by their sudden onset, extreme discharge, short duration, material damage, and human loss, represent a significant natural hazard. Not well covered by standard hydrological observations, flash flood data can primarily be derived from various types of documentary evidence. This evidence served as the main data source for creating a flash flood database for the Czech Republic from 2001 to 2023. This database enabled detailed analysis of different aspects of flash floods. The annual series of 233 flash flood events, 160 flash flood days, and 424 affected municipalities showed significant inter-annual variability but no linear trends. The triggering rainfall that generates flash floods was analyzed with respect to 1–3-hourly and daily precipitation totals and circulation types from the objective classification. While flash floods can occur anywhere, they were more frequently recorded at the foots of mountain slopes, often coinciding with “critical points” where built-up areas meet concentrated surface runoff pathways. The division of material damage caused by flash floods into eight categories indicated that the highest proportion of damage was to streets and communications (24.3 %), to houses (21.7 %), and to their cellars and basements (18.3 %). There were also 36 recorded fatalities. The understanding of flash floods in the Czech Republic aligns generally well with studies of flash floods in other European regions.
Women Empowerment: A Comparison of Socio-Economic Perspectives with Political Aspects
Authors: Mehmood Bushra , Khan Abdul Jalil , Ahmad Hafiz Rizwan 
Published: October 2024

This study aims to investigates the social, economic and some political determinants of women empowerment by determining whether economic and social factors are more important compared to the political factors or not. The comparison between 34-developed and 34-developing countries has been made by constructing a weighted index of women empowerment by using annual data ranging from 1990 to 2023 based on the social and economic spheres of the women life. The political aspects are employed by using women political empowerment index already developed by V-Dem. The study evaluates the capability approach through panel data fixed effects models. This approach conceptualizes women empowerment by focusing social and economic dimensions of the women life mainly. Panel data analysis has been performed based on cross section fixed effect models and generalized least square regression with ARMA components to deal with autocorrelation. The findings suggest that developing countries need to advance the socio-economic factors to empower their women population such as increased educational access, raising the level of life expectancy and provide opportunities for political role whereas developed countries should focus on expansion in economic opportunities and health facilities for women to ensure the women empowerment effectively. Hence the set of policies needed in case of developing countries should focus more on social empowerment whereas developed countries more on economic empowerment.
Discovery and Underground Mining of Large Deposits: Essential Training to Ensure Copper Supply
Authors: Wood Dan , van As Andre 
Published: October 2024

Editor’s note: The aim of the Geology and Mining series is to introduce early career professionals and students to various aspects of mineral exploration, development, and mining in order to share the experiences and insight of each author on the myriad of topics involved with the mineral industry and the ways in which geoscientists contribute to each.

Abstract
A supply shortfall of at least 6 million tonnes (Mt) Cu is expected by 2031—with total demand now forecast to increase from 25 Mt in 2023 to &gt;36 Mt, and possibly to a suggested 50 Mt by 2050—given the present trend in demand. The deficit can be partially filled by increased mine production, expanding currently installed mine production capacity, and increasing Cu recycling. However, satisfying demand in 2050 as the demand-to-mining supply gap increases will require the accelerated discovery of at least five large Cu deposits—individually producing &gt;0.5 to &gt;1.0 Mt/yr Cu—and their related mine development, by 2030. These five deposit discoveries are required to replace mines scheduled to close in the 2050s, given the &gt;20 years needed to take a deposit from discovery to mine production. The two largest sources of Cu supply, porphyry and sediment-hosted Cu deposits, can potentially fill the gap if enough discoveries are made; however, there is no evidence that this is about to occur.
Future porphyry Cu discoveries are expected to be mined underground, mostly by a caving method. The demand increase is occurring at a time when the capital intensity of porphyry Cu mine development has almost doubled since 2006. We predict that the only solution to the future Cu demand-supply challenge for society and the mining industry in the short to medium term rests with simple demand-supply economics and a substantially increased Cu price. Copper substitution by other materials and recycling could potentially benefit from a significantly increased price; however, the major advantage will be conferred on deposits amenable to open-pit mining that are undeveloped because of price-dependent, failed feasibility studies.
The challenge of possibly doubling Cu supply by ca. 2050 through developing mines on large Cu deposits—both discovered and undiscovered, in an unprecedented number and in a shorter period—will require a major increase in the number of competent mining industry personnel. This comes at a time when the industry faces an aging workforce, leading to a critical skills gap compounded by a chronic shortage of students graduating in the sciences and engineering with mining-related university degrees. There is an acute shortage of experienced professionals in cave mining, and the substantial number of open-pit mining professionals who are predicted to retire by 2030 will need to be replaced. On-the-job training of geoscientists and engineers after graduation, delivered by experienced practitioners through university-accredited professional development programs, is suggested as the solution.
The data poverty trap: A moral and statistical dilemma
Authors: Smythe Ian 
Published: October 2024

Key digested messageThis article explores the issue of data poverty and its impact on educational inequality with specific reference to vocational training. It highlights how a lack of comprehensive data affects support services and student outcomes, contributing to survivorship bias. In this specific case, survivorship bias arises because in-depth data is primarily collected from students who were admitted to colleges, neglecting those who were not. This selective data collection misrepresents the needs and barriers of the broader applicant pool. The article also discusses the potential and limitations of artificial intelligence in addressing these challenges, emphasising the need for context-specific data to improve enrolment and support for all students.
O papel do delegado “garantista” ao se fazer juízos negativos de imputação
Authors: Figueiredo Francielle da Conceição Drumond 
Published: October 2024

O delegado de polícia é o primeiro garantidor dos direitos e garantias fundamentais do investigado, e funciona como um verdadeiro anteparo de arbitrariedades e abusos, quando da ocorrência de uma prisão em flagrante. Nesse sentido, o presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar a (im)possibilidade do delegado de polícia aplicar as causas justificantes e dirimentes legais no cumprimento dos seus deveres (funções) durante a lavratura do termo de prisão em flagrante delito ou ao final da investigação preliminar. Para cumprir com o objetivo proposto foi utilizado o método fenomenológico-hermenêutico, de matriz heidegeriana-gadameriana, revolvendo o chão linguístico sob o qual está assentada a presente temática. Conclui que o delegado de polícia não deve se ater a meras análises de adequação do fato-norma, mas também o dever de analisar o conceito de crime, de forma completa ( fato típico, antijurídico e culpável), a fim de evitar ações penais infundadas e, principalmente de concretizar os ditames do Estado Democrático de Direito sob o mandamento do Garantismo Penal.
Low-Velocity Ballistic Trauma–Related Upper Extremity Nerve Injury: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Authors: Retrouvey Helene , Harmange Cecile , Saggaf Moaath , DeSanto Kristen , Leversedge Fraser J. , Lauder Alexander 
Published: October 2024

Purpose:
Optimal management of upper extremity nerve palsy caused by low-velocity ballistic trauma (LBT) remains controversial. The aim of this systematic review was to summarize the available evidence on the management of nerve injuries caused by LBT to the upper extremity.

Methods:
A literature search was completed for the keywords “Upper extremity,” “Nerve Injury,” and “Ballistic.” 2 independent reviewers conducted a systematic screening of all articles and collected data from relevant publications. The data were summarized and pooled using a random-effect model.

Results:
14 studies met inclusion criteria. Cohorts between 6 and 168 patients (n = 848) with upper extremity LBT were reported. Neurologic deficits were present in 45% (95% CI: 38 to 52%) of patients at the time of injury evaluation. Nerve exploration was done in 50% (95% CI: 27 to 73%) of these patients with neurologic deficits. Early nerve exploration was done in 19% (95% CI: 9 to 32%) of all patients. Surgical findings included nerve continuity (49%; 95% CI: 14 to 84%), nerve contusion (30%; 95% CI: 12 to 50%), and nerve transection (31%; 95% CI: 14 to 50%). Nerve transection rates found at the time of exploration ranged from 0 to 71% (mean 31%). Outcomes were good in 62% (95% CI: 41 to 81%); however, analyses were limited by subjective outcome reporting of the studies.

Conclusions:
Contrary to historical teaching that LBT causes neurapraxia, this review identified that 31% of resulting nerve injuries were neurotmesis (transections). These results advocate for systematic clinical follow-up and appropriately timed nerve intervention (within 3 to 6 months of injury) when neurologic deficits persist after ballistic injury.

Predicting Proximal Humerus Fracture Mechanical Complications: Are Computed Tomography Hounsfield Units the Answer?
Authors: Fisher Nina D. , Bi Andrew S. , Egol Kenneth A. 
Published: October 2024

Introduction:
The purpose was to determine whether computed tomography (CT) Hounsfield units (HU) as a proxy for bone quality can predict postoperative complications following surgical treatment of proximal humerus fractures.

Methods:
Sixty-six patients with 2-, 3-, or 4-part proximal humerus fractures who underwent surgical fixation at single institution and had complete radiographic data available were included. Radiographic measurements included the deltoid tuberosity index (DTI) on preoperative anterior-posterior shoulder radiographs, and the HU value from the surgical proximal humerus was determined by measuring the humeral head at the midaxial/coronal/sagittal CT image using a circle-type region of interest (≥35 mm2). Postoperative complications recorded were implant failure, development of osteonecrosis, nonunion, and acute periprosthetic fracture. Patients with and without complications were statistically compared, and binary logistic regression was performed to determine whether preoperative proximal humerus CT HU were predictive of complications.

Results:
Eight patients (12.1%) developed 11 overall complications, with three patients experiencing multiple complications each. Complications included osteonecrosis (4), implant failure (5), nonunion (1), and acute periprosthetic fracture (1). No difference was observed in demographics or Neer or AO/OTA classification between those with and without complications. Patients with complications had markedly lower DTI and overall HU as well as HU in the coronal and sagittal planes. Regression analysis for average DTI demonstrated a higher DTI and had a 10 times decreased risk of complication (P = 0.040, odds ratio = −10.5, 95% confidence interval, 0.000 to 0.616). Regression analysis for average total HU also found a higher HU associated with a decreased risk of complications (P = 0.034, odds ratio = −0.020, 95% confidence interval, 0.980 to 0.962). Logistic regression analysis, including age, age-adjusted Charlson Comorbidity Index, mean DTI, and mean total HU, only found mean total HU to be notable within the model.

Discussion:
CT HU may identify patients with poorer bone quality and thus help predict postoperative complications.

Évolution récente de la répartition géographique des plantes émettrices de pollen allergisant et perspectives en liaison avec le changement climatique
Authors: Besancenot Jean-Pierre , Thibaudon Michel 
Published: October 2024

Les effets du changement climatique sur les allergènes aéroportés et, par suite, sur les maladies allergiques ont été étudiés par de nombreux auteurs. Si l’on met à part l’impact direct, extraclimatique, du CO2 sur la croissance végétale, les principaux points abordés dans ces publications concernent les changements (1) dans la chronologie et la durée de la saison pollinique, (2) dans la production et les concentrations atmosphériques de pollen, (3) dans le contenu des grains de pollen en allergènes, et (4) dans la distribution spatiale des plantes allergisantes ou la dispersion de leur pollen. Un assez large consensus existe désormais sur les deux premiers points, de même que sur le troisième dans le cas particulier du bouleau et de l’ambroisie, mais le quatrième soulève bien des interrogations. Assurément, le changement climatique pourrait en théorie faciliter la diffusion de certaines espèces végétales hors des régions où elles étaient jusque-là présentes. Toutefois, en pratique, les plantes ne suivent pas automatiquement, et surtout pas immédiatement, « leur » climat. Il est important de ne pas confondre les niches écologiques potentielles, optimales et « réalisées ». Les simulations effectuées ici ou là ne sont pas des prévisions, et de grosses incertitudes subsistent d’autant que, par ses plantations agricoles ou d’ornement, l’homme peut perturber profondément les tendances naturelles.

Authors: Bueno Elaine Christina da Silva Sanches , Cardin Valéria Silva Galdino 
Published: October 2024

Com os avanços da tecnologia, o Brasil vem vivenciando o aumento de compartilhamento nas redes sociais e devido ao crescimento dos acessos nas redes, a divulgação da imagem de crianças e adolescentes também tem crescido. Essa prática de compartilhamento excessivo de imagens e vídeos pelos próprios pais ou responsáveis é denominado sharenting. Essa prática viola os direitos da personalidade do menor, podendo gerar problemas psicológicos, de autoestima, desenvolvimento, além de expor a criança a crimes como por exemplo, a pedofilia. O presente estudo busca refletir sobre o compartilhamento e os resultados evidentes dessa exposição excessiva. A presente pesquisa utilizou-se da abordagem qualitativa, baseada em revisão bibliográficas de artigos científicos, periódicos, sites sobre o assunto, livros e revistas relevantes acerca do tema, bem como analise de leis brasileiras relevantes para o tema. Por fim, espera-se contribuir para a responsabilidade dos pais diante da exposição excessiva da imagem das crianças e adolescentes nas redes sociais, ressaltando a importância de considerar a vontade do menor ao compartilhar suas imagens e dados pessoais online.

Published: October 2024

A saúde bucal é um fator de importância no que diz respeito ao bem-estar geral e pode ser afetada por problemas de saúde mental. Pessoas que sofrem de transtornos mentais podem apresentar um risco maior de desenvolver doenças bucais, como cáries, doenças gengivais ou perda de dentes. Objetivo: Avaliar como alterações na saúde mental podem afetar a saúde bucal dos pacientes. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma revisão de literatura do tipo integrativa. Foram utilizados 07 artigos encontrados na base de dados PubMed e Biblioteca Virtual da Saúde, nos últimos 10 anos. Utilizaram-se os descritores “saúde mental”, “saúde bucal”, “fatores de risco”, “hábitos deletérios”, e suas respectivas traduções para a língua inglesa. Resultados e Discussão: A falta de motivação para buscar cuidados odontológicos é uma consequência comum relacionadas à saúde mental. Assim, a promoção de um cuidado integrado que aborde tanto a saúde mental quanto a saúde bucal é fundamental para melhorar a qualidade de vida e o bem-estar geral dos indivíduos. Portadores de transtornos mentais apresentam um elevado risco de desenvolver desordens orais. Conclusão: A saúde mental desempenha um papel que impacta na manutenção da saúde bucal, evidenciando a relação entre esses dois aspectos da saúde. Problemas como estresse, ansiedade e transtornos mentais podem levar a uma diminuição na higiene oral, ao desenvolvimento de hábitos prejudiciais, como o bruxismo, e ao aumento do risco de doenças bucais.
