Wzorce sowieckie w prawie polskim po 1944 r. Zagadnienia wybrane
Authors: Lityński Adam 
Published: July 2024

W artykule przedstawiono sytuację w Polsce po 1945 r., kiedy w wyniku umowy Wielkiej Trójki (Roosevelta, Churchilla, Stalina) w Jałcie na Krymie (luty 1945 r.) Europa Środkowo-Wschodnia została oddana Stalinowi. Stalin obiecał wolne wybory, ale mimo że początkowo dla pozoru obowiązywało (niekomunistyczne) przedwojenne prawo polskie, to ze Związku Socjalistycznych Republik Radzieckich napływały do Polski nowe wzorce, które mieli wprowadzać komuniści. Sądy uzależniono od panującej partii komunistycznej. Na sędziów powoływano ludzi bez wykształcenia prawniczego, którzy mieli wykonywać polecenia partii komunistycznej. Podobnie było z prokuratorami. Prowadzono śledztwa, stosowano tortury, sądzono ludzi tajnie, zwłaszcza w sprawach politycznych. Zadaniem sądów było wówczas stosowanie represji, a nie wymierzanie sprawiedliwości.

Zusammenfassung
Ohne eine Berücksichtigung der Hintergründe des geänderten Leseverhaltens bleiben politische Forderungen und Entscheidungen zur Entwicklung der Lesekultur und mithin zur Entwicklung der Bibliotheken unbestimmt. In diesem Essay werden in einer Tour d’Horizon wichtige Einflussgrößen und Änderungsmöglichkeiten bestimmt. Wegen der tiefen Verwurzelung der Demokratien des Westens in der Lesekultur wird es dabei sehr politisch. Gehört es aber nicht zu den Aufgaben der Bibliothekarinnen und Bibliothekare, diese Zusammenhänge zu reflektieren, darauf öffentlich aufmerksam zu machen und Anpassungen in den Angeboten ihrer Häuser vorzunehmen?
Will Geopolitics Accelerate China’s Drive Towards De-Dollarization?
Authors: Ryan John M. T. 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
The war in Europe has not only re-drawn strategic lines and trade flows, but with complex sanctions in place, may also have a lasting impact on currency regimes. Beyond the Russia-Ukraine conflict, a different, slower but still more strategic shift is taking place in relations between the United States and China. The US is not seeking a full decoupling of trade between China and the US and its allies – there are many deep dependencies on both sides and, overall, trade continues to grow. China, on the other hand has been casting its political and economic capital into strategic alliances that include notions of a new currency regime – in parts because of the sanctions imposed by the G7 alliance. The question for this paper therefore is whether it is still a question of if de-dollarisation is happening or rather how fast.
Kinetic and thermodynamic approach to precisely solve the unsteady Rayleigh flow problem of a rarefied homogeneous charged gas under external force influence
Authors: Abdel Wahid Taha Zakaraia , Alaofi Zaki Mrzog 
Published: July 2024

Abstract
An extension and further development of our previous article [J. Non-equilibrium Thermodyne. 37 (2012), 119–141] is presented. We study the irreversible non-equilibrium thermodynamics (INT) properties of the exact solution to the dilute homogeneously charged gas problem with unsteady Rayleigh flow. In contrast to previous research, the charged gas flows under the influence of an external force, the flat plate oscillates, and the displacement current term is considered, leading to significant advancements in understanding natural plasma dynamics. We are solving the Boltzmann kinetic equation (BKE) Krook model supplemented by Maxwell’s equations. We used a travelling wave and moments method with an electron velocity distribution function (EVDF). To the best of our knowledge, as three new scientific achievements, we introduced a new mathematical model for calculating the thermodynamic forces, kinetic coefficients, and fluxes variables, Equations (28–40) and (50–54). Second, we determined, with reasonable accuracy, the thermodynamic equilibrium time of electrons, t
equ = 26.7955, under an external force. We clarify the difference between equilibrium EVDF and perturbed EVDF and take advantage of BKE to account for non-equilibrium thermodynamic principles. For diamagnetic and paramagnetic plasmas, the extended Gibbs equation predicts ratios between various contributions to the internal energy change (IEC) is presented. A standard laboratory argon plasma model is used to apply the results.

Abstract
In this paper, we obtain some Korovkin type approximation theorems for double sequences of positive linear operators on two-dimensional weighted spaces via statistical type convergence method with respect to power series method. Additionally, we calculate the rate of convergence. As an application, we provide an approximation using the generalization of Gadjiev-Ibragimov operators for Pp
-statistical convergence. Our results are meaningful and stronger than those previously given for two-dimensional weighted spaces.

The structural, electrokinetic, and energetic properties of the TiСо1-xCrxSb semiconductor obtained by doping TiCoSb with Cr atoms introduced into the structure by substituting Co atoms in the crystallographic position 4c were studied. It was shown that in TiСо1-xCrxSb the structural defects of donor and acceptor nature are generated simultaneously in different ratios depending on the impurity concentration. At concentrations of х ≥ 0.02, the conductivity of TiСо1-xCrxSb has a metallic character, and the contribution of current carrier scattering mechanisms to the value of electrical resistivity is of the same order as changes in the concentration of current carriers. It was established that at all temperatures in the range of concentrations x = 0–0.02, the rate of generation of donors exceeds the rate of generation of acceptors, and at concentrations x > 0.02, on the contrary, the rate of generation of acceptors is greater than that of donors. This is indicated by the positive values of thermopower coefficient α(х,Т) of TiСо1-xCrxSb for х > 0.03.

In the era of healthcare digital transformation, the scientific community faces the need for structured and available datasets for research and technological projects in the field of artificial intelligence, related to the development of new diagnostic and treatment methods.Objective: to develop a dataset containing anonymized medical data of all patients treated at the Federal Research and Clinical Center of Intensive Care Medicine and Rehabilitology (FRCCR), and provide access for doctors and scientists of FRCCR and other centers to structured patient data for subsequent analysis and research. Materials and Methods. The FRCCR medical information system and the tools «Asclepius», PL/SQL, Microsoft Oﬃce Excel, Power Query M, Microsoft PowerBI, Open data editor, and Python were used for data collection and representation. To provide open access to the dataset and protect the personal data of patients, the information was anonymized.Results. We introduce the RICD (Russian Intensive Care Dataset, https://fnkcrr-database.ru/) — the first dataset of intensive care patients in the Russian Federation, developed at FRCCR based on advanced principles and methods used in international open database projects — «eICU Program» from Philips Healthcare, «MIMIC-IV», and «MIMIC-III». The developed dataset contains information on 7,730 hospitalizations of 5,115 patients (including readmissions), covering data from 3,291 hospitalizations in the intensive care units (ICUs). The total number of records in the RICD exceeds 14 million. The RICD presents medical-anthropometric data, patient movement within the institution, diagnoses, information on therapy provided, results of laboratory tests, scale assessments, and outcomes of hospitalization. RICD also contains data on several vital parameters collected from bedside monitors and other equipment of ICUs, with up to 10 evaluations per hour.Conclusion. The RICD allows for in-depth analysis and research of clinical practices in intensive care, enabling the development of clinical decision support tools and the application of machine learning methods to enhance diagnostic tools and improve patient outcomes. With its accessibility and detailed data structure, the dataset serves as a valuable tool for both scientific research and practical applications in intensive care.

Published: July 2024

В свободной атмосфере в интервале высот 6–12 км наибольшую опасность для авиации представляет турбулентность ясного неба (ТЯН). Перемежаемость и случайная локализация ТЯН в спокойном окружающем воздушном потоке существенно ограничивают возможности ее прогнозирования. С учетом изменения климата и увеличения вероятности возникновения ТЯН создание систем дистанционного обнаружения турбулентных зон становится особенно актуальным. Приведены результаты зондирования турбулентности ультрафиолетовым лидаром УОР-5 с борта самолета-лаборатории Ту-134 «Оптик». Летный эксперимент проводился в сентябре 2022 г. в рамках программы исследования Арктики. Лидар регистрировал зоны умеренной турбулентности в нижней части тропосферы, где вероятность турбулентности максимальная; также были зафиксированы единичные случаи ТЯН на высоте 9 км. Турбулентный лидар может использоваться на практике для дистанционного обнаружения турбулентных зон на высотах, где осуществляется большинство коммерческих авиарейсов. Также показана перспектива наземного применения турбулентного лидара для решения задач авиационной безопасности при полетах в нижней тропосфере. Представлены результаты зондирования лидаром УОР-5 в зимнее время, когда было зарегистрировано повышение интенсивности турбулентности в слое 0,4–1,6 км при прохождении холодного фронта.
A flight experiment was carried out in which turbulence was sounded with the UV lidar BSE-5 from the Tu-134 Optik laboratory aircraft. The experiment was conducted in September 2022 as part of the Arctic exploration program. During the flights, lidar recorded zones of moderate turbulence in the lower troposphere, where the probability of turbulence is maximal, and isolated cases of clear air turbulence (CAT) at an altitude of 9 km. The intensity of the aircraft shaking was monitored using a 3-coordinate accelerometer. It was found that the turbulent lidar can be used in practice for remote detection of turbulent zones at altitudes where most commercial flights are carried out. The prospect of ground-based application of turbulent lidar for solving aviation safety problems during flights in the lower troposphere is shown. The results of the BSE-5 lidar sounding in winter, when an increase in the intensity of turbulence in the 0.4–1.6 km layer was recorded during the passage of a cold front, are presented.

Nitrogen fertilizer levels significantly affect crop growth and development, necessitating precision management. Most studies focus on nitrogen nutrient estimation using vegetation indices and textural features, overlooking the diagnostic potential of color features. Hence, we investigated cotton nitrogen nutrition status using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) image features and the nitrogen nutrient index (NNI). Random frog algorithm - and random forest-screened image feature sets significantly correlated with the NNI, which were substituted into four machine learning algorithms for NNI estimation modeling. The composite scores (F) of optimal image feature sets were calculated using the coefficient of variation method for comprehensive cotton nitrogen nutrient diagnosis. Validation of the model for determining the critical nitrogen concentration in cotton yielded a coefficient of determination R2 = 0.89, root mean square error RMSE = 0.50 g (100 g)-1, and mean absolute error MAE = 0.44, demonstrating improved performance. Additionally, our novel NNI estimation model constructed based on the optimal image feature sets exhibited R2c = 0.97, RMSEc = 0.02, MAEc = 0.02, R2v = 0.85, RMSEv = 0.05, and MAEv = 0.04. Polynomial fitting of the composite index with NNI indicated that the model was reliable and yielded the following diagnostic criterion: 0.48 < F2 < 0.67 indicated nitrogen overapplication, whereas F2 < 0.48 or F2 > 0.67 indicated nitrogen deficiency. This study demonstrates the superior effectiveness of using UAV RGB image feature sets for NNI estimation and the quick, accurate diagnosis of cotton nitrogen levels, which will help guide nitrogen fertilizer application.

Published: July 2024

Montane grasslands must be managed effectively to conserve biodiversity since they play an important role in sustaining healthy and diversified ecosystems. A 9 km transect was used to assess plant and lepidopteran biodiversity in mountain meadows in Bilbor, Romania. Different management strategies were used in each plot. The identified plants were divided into three categories: Poaceae, Fabaceae, and other families. In the case of lepidoptera, diurnal butterfly species from three families were observed: Lycaenidae, Nymphalidae, and Pieridae. The number of plant species in the abandoned meadows was reduced, with a focus on those with low fodder value (Nardus stricta and Deschampsia flexuosa), as well as some invasive species (Vaccinium myrtillus). The implementation of protection and conservation measures resulted in species diversification, with an increase in the number of Poaceae (11 to 16 species) and Fabaceae (nine to fourteen species). In addition to providing more feed, the flora can benefit lepidopteran entomofauna. During the monitoring period, 29 species were identified from the three lepidopteran families. The most abundant species were Maniola jurtina L., Boloria selene Denis & Schif., Argynnis paphia L., Coenonympha pamphilus L. (Nymphalidae), Pseudophilotes schiffermuelleri Hemming (Lycaenidae), and Pieris mannii Mayer (Pieridae). Traditional mowing and grazing activities can help to maintain the structure and composition of these ecosystems, limiting biological succession to forest and sustaining floristic biodiversity.

ABSTRACT
A morphotectonic investigation of the drainage basins and an estimation of the rate of upliftment have been conducted in the vicinity of Palampur, located in the Kangra district of Himachal Pradesh. The assessment utilized the geomorphic index of active tectonics (IAT) and the Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) dating technique. The study area is situated within the epicentral zone of the 1905 Kangra earthquake and is drained by three significant perennial tributaries of the Beas river, namely Baner, Neogal, and Awa. To evaluate the tectonic influence on these drainage basins, Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data with a resolution of 30m, Survey of India toposheets, and Google Earth images were processed using ArcGIS and Global Mapper software. The findings of this investigation indicate that the drainage basins have been impacted by tectonic activity, resulting in the formation of asymmetrical, elongated basins with deep V-shaped valleys and active mountain fronts. The hypsometric integral values derived from the study suggest that these basins have reached an equilibrium stage. Originating from elevations exceeding 4500m in the Dhauladhar range, these rivers, like other Himalayan rivers, partake in active downcutting and erosional processes, as observed in the presence of terraces. By employing the OSL dating technique, the terraces of the Neogal river were dated, enabling the calculation of an upliftment rate ranging from 0.6 ± 0.03 mm/year to 1.7 ± 0.1 mm/year for the area.

Authors: Alves Priscila Dias , Seidl Eliane Maria Fleury 
Published: July 2024

To analyze, from a bioethical perspective, social vulnerability in relation to health during the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: The study included peer-reviewed publications from January 1st until December 31st 2020, identified in Pubmed, SciELO and LILACS data basis. Mesh terms were utilized for research in Pubmed as follows: “COVID-19” conjugated with the terms: “vulnerable population”, “population groups”, “social determinants of health”, “health equity”. Portuguese and Spanish equivalents DECS terms were used for searching in the other two databases. Results: a total of 132 articles were found. After applied inclusion and exclusion criteria, were 21 eligible articles. The most recurrent themes were: racial, ethnic and social-economics, gender, age, disability and chronic health conditions. Articles addressing more than one theme were observed, integrating different aspects of vulnerable populations. A bioethical discussion with focus in vulnerability based in the data retrieved took place and connections with discrimination and social determinants of health were made. Conclusion: Results point to the violation of rights explained in the Universal Declaration of Bioethics and Human Rights. By increasing the disparity in morbidity and mortality from COVID-19 of population groups already impacted by the social determination of health, there is a violation of the right to health, indicating that governments and societies fail to respect the vulnerability of social groups in the pandemic context.

Development and Comprehensive Assessment of the Clinical Effectiveness of a Method For Cataract Phacoemulsification Based on a Single Tunnel Incision
Authors: Semykin V. D. , Bedikyan R. S. , Tebueva A. Sh. 
Published: July 2024

Purpose. Development and evaluation of the clinical effectiveness of a technique for performing phacoemulsification of cataracts (FEC) based on a single tunnel incision.Patients and methods. We observed 96 patients (96 eyes, age 58.2 ± 1.2 years, 61 men, 35 women), divided into two groups equal in age, gender and visual status: control (CG, 46 patients, 46 eyes), for whom FEC was performed using the traditional method (total incision length 4.6 mm) and the main group (MG, 50 patients, 50 eyes), for whom FEC was performed using the developed method (total incision length 2.2 mm). The basis of the developed technique is to make a tunnel incision 2.2 mm long on the temporal side, followed by capsulorhexis, phacofragmentation, phacoemulsification of the lens nucleus and aspiration of the lens masses through a single tunnel incision. In this case, during phacofragmentation, a longitudinal fracture of the lens nucleus is performed along the axis 0–180°, the lens nucleus is rotated along the meridian 90–270° and another longitudinal fracture of the lens nucleus is performed along the axis 0–180°, and after phacoemulsification of the nucleus, aspiration is performed through a coaxial handle and IOL is implanted. A comparative assessment of the clinical effectiveness of the developed and traditional methods was carried out using clinical, refractive, morphological and biochemical parameters.Results. A higher clinical effectiveness of FEC using the developed method has been established (compared to the traditional one), which is confirmed by a decrease in the magnitude of surgically induced astigmatism (by 0.13 diopters, p < 0.001) and a tendency towards higher postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (by 0.05 rel. units, p > 0.05). Along with this, in the МG, compared with the CG, a pronounced decrease in the incidence of dry eye syndrome (by 3.4 %, p < 0.05), C­reactive protein in the tear fluid (by 1.1 mg/l, p < 0.05) and preservation of the number of endothelial cells (by 4.8 %, p < 0.01).Conclusion. The developed technique for performing FEC is an effective prevention of surgically induced astigmatism and negative effects on the corneal endothelium and ocular surface, which is associated with a decrease in the total length of the incision (2.2 mm compared to 4.6 mm) and an intraoperative decrease in the total volume of circulating fluid.
