Estimation of Spatiotemporal Changes of Land Cover in Llapi River Catchment (Northeastern Part of Kosova)
Authors: Bytyqi Valbon , Ibrahimi Besarta , Agaj Tropikë 
Published: May 2024

Aim of the studyIn recent decades, Kosova in general and the Llapi River catchment have experienced landscape transformation which resulted in Land Use and Land Cover (LULC) changes, mainly in flat terrains where most of country’s population is concentrated. Other landscapes have experienced changes too, but on a small scale. The aim of the study was to identify landscape transformation and driving forces behind it.Material and methodsSpatiotemporal changes of Land Use and Land Cover (LULC) were made using GIS techniques. Land Cover data from Copernicus Land Monitoring Service (CLMS) with spatial resolution 100 m for three different years: 2000, 2006 and 2018 were analyzed. DEM with 10 m spatial resolution was used to estimate slope steepness and catchments’ altitude. Population data for settlements inside the Llapi River catchment represented in features were downloaded from the Statistical Agency of Kosova, and those data include population numbers for official censuses between 1948 until 2011, while ArcMap 10.8 environment was used for analysis.Results and conclusionsWith GIS technique in analyzing Land Use and Land Cover data (LULC) and other open source data, we found that agricultural land have decreased in area by 9.53%, while the increase of artificial surface is 160.87%, or expressing by absolute values, total agricultural areas in 2000 were 37,827 ha, while in 2018 were 34,334 ha, meaning 0.3ha per capita, less than European level. In order to protect agricultural land, zoning and land use plans should be implemented.

Authors: Rubashkina А. N. , Torshin I. Yu. , Gromova O. A. , Galustyan A. N. 
Published: May 2024

Objective: to determine the molecular mechanisms of action of 7-hydroxymatairesinol (7(OH)MR), the main lignan of spruce extracts, characterized by oncoprotective and anti-inflammatory properties.Material and methods. The analysis of 7(OH)MR was carried out by chemoinformatic approach using the combinatorial theory of solvability and the topological theory of recognition. The postgenomic approach makes it possible to assess the effect of drugs on genome transcription (transcriptome) and on the proteome as a whole.Results. 7(OH)MP has anti-inflammatory (inhibition of 5-lipoxygenase, matrix metalloproteinase 2, mitogen-activated kinase p38-alpha, leukotriene В4 receptor, prostacyclin receptor), and oncoprotective (antioxidant effect due to inhibition of heme oxygenase-2, inhibition of cyclin-dependent kinases 3 and 4, epidermal growth factor, mTOR protein) pharmacological effects.Conclusion. By reducing the expression of proliferative genes and genes involved in chronic inflammation, the 7(OH)MP molecule inhibits the proliferation of tumor cells. Pharmacoinformatic modeling showed that the anti-inflammatory effects of 7(OH)MR may contribute to increased lifespan in animal models.
Confidence intervals of b values for grouped magnitudes
Authors: Tinti Stefano , Mulargia Francesco 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
This paper presents a simple method, that is a very practical tool, to compute the confidence intervals of parameter b for earthquake magnitudes grouped in classes of equal width—a circumstance that happens quite frequently in the usual applications in seismology. The problem is given a solution which is complete and covers very satisfactorily all cases of concern for the seismologist. The authentic, innovative contribution of the paper is that, by exploiting the strict connection between the frequency-magnitude Gutenberg-Richter law and the discrete geometric distribution, an approach is followed that allows for the evaluation of the confidence bands even for samples with a small number of earthquakes (N &lt; 40).

O artigo apresenta uma revisão de literatura mostrando o estado-da-arte conceitual na disciplina corporativa denominada inteligência competitiva (IC), sob um ponto de vista da ciência da informação (CI), explorando desenvolvimentos e experiências recentes. Embora já presente nas sociedades da Antiguidade, objeto de estudo de soberanos, pensadores e guerreiros, a inteligência competitiva (IC), inspirada nas atividades de inteligência militar, constitui tema bastante atual no mundo corporativo contemporâneo de competição global, com renovado interesse no mercado e na academia. Como o tema apresenta evidentes conexões epistemológicas com gestão da informação (GI) e gestão do conhecimento (GC), o texto busca mostrar como isso ocorre e as relações de causa e efeito entre as várias camadas de atividades vinculadas ao desenvolvimento de inteligência para tomada de decisão nas organizações inspirado no framework de Liebowitz (2006) baseado numa estrutura de cebola. Conceitos correlatos são também explorados, como o próprio conceito de GC, numa praxis composta de disciplinas corporativas conhecidas como aprendizado organizacional, gestão do capital intelectual ou capital humano e inteligência organizacional. Conceitos novos correlatos à inteligência competitiva são acrescentados ao conjunto intelligentsia galore de Liebowitz (2006), como capital estrutural, capital de clientela, capital competitivo e inteligência estratégica (IE). http://revista.ibict.br/ciinf/article/view/1242
Modelização de domínios de conhecimento: uma investigação de princípios fundamentais
Authors: Campos Maria Luiza de Almeida 
Published: May 2024

As teorias e metodologias desenvolvidas, tanto no escopo temático da ciência da informação quanto no da ciência da computação, que estão voltadas para a representação do conhecimento, apresentam, de forma mais ou menos abrangente, discussões sobre princípios como contexto de conhecimento, natureza dos conceitos, relações entre conceitos e sistemas de conceito. No campo do quadro teórico, investigam-se os modelos de abstração utilizados nas duas áreas e modelos representacionais associados à modelagem de sistemas de banco de dados, especificamente o modelo orientado a objetos. Da ciência da informação, analisam-se teorias ligadas à representação de sistemas de conceitos, como a teoria da classificação facetada e a teoria do conceito. Da teoria da terminologia, utilizam-se princípios estabelecidos para a determinação de conceitos e suas relações. Garantindo a especificidade de cada área, a comparação entre as teorias se dá, tendo em vista quatro pontos relacionados ao processo de modelização, a saber: o método de raciocínio; o objeto de representação; as relações entre os objetos; as formas de representação gráfica. http://revista.ibict.br/ciinf/article/view/1064

Evaluation of the correlation of mandibular ramus to base ratio with mandibular incisor angulation: A cephalometric study
Authors: Chaudhary Dinesh Chander , Thakur Vivek Kumar 
Published: May 2024

: The cephalometric evaluation of an individual case using floating norms is the contemporary approach in orthodontic diagnosis. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation of mandibular ramus to the mandibular base ratio with mandibular incisor proclination in a mixed Indian population.A total of 100 cephalograms were selected from the archives of the department of orthodontics fulfilling inclusion and exclusion criteria.The mean age of cases studied was 17.09 ± 2.61 years, with an age range of 13–26 years. The sample comprised 47 males and 53 females. The results of this study showed that the higher incisor mandibular plane angle (IMPA) has statistically and clinically significant association with a higher ramus to mandibular base ratio in both male and female groups. The unit increase in IMPA is significantly associated with a 0.004 unit increase in the ratio of ramus to mandibular base. This study concludes that the IMPA and ratio of ramus to mandibular base are the closest counterparts of each other and explains the variations in the IMPA even in the population group with similar skeletal characteristics. These two components interacts with each other to give a balanced occlusion and function.

Published: May 2024

The grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) cultivar Pinot gris is an international variety that has spread world wide and is oneof the most important in Italy, especially in the northern regions where almost half of the world's total is grown. Over a three-year period (2019–2021), a comparative study was conducted on 17 clones to evaluate their agronomic aptitudes, susceptibility of grapes to Botrytis cinerea, fertility of buds, vigour, and oenological characteristics. We aimed to provide local viticulture with agronomic, sanitary status, and oenological indications that help to choose the genotype that best fits and enhances the clone/environment synergy. This is important given climate change, one of the most significant factors affecting viticulture. Hence, productive, qualitative, and health surveys were conducted on grapes during harvest. Vigour and vegetative/productive balance were also evaluated regarding the weight of the pruned wood. The Ravaz index and fertility of buds were studied when the inflorescences were separated and clearly visible (between DOY 131 and DOY 141 each year). The confirmation of the bunch was also evaluated (shape and number of wings) according to the Organisation Internationale de la Vigne et du Vin (OIV) descriptors. Through the use of digital photogrammetry, some descriptors of the cluster that most correlate with the severity of Botrytis cinerea were identified. In 2020 and 2021, microvinifications were carried out in white and with maceration of skins, respectively, following tested protocols. Sensory analysis of the wines was performed with a trained panel of experts. The study revealed interesting differences between clones concerning grapes' qualitative, productive, and sanitary aspects. Some clones stood out for their sugar accumulation, yield and resistance to Botrytis cinerea, as well as for the oenological olfactory profile. Statistical analysis highlighted that the severity of Botrytis cinerea and bunch rot was not correlated with the vigour of the plant but rather with the hardness of skin, content of soluble solids, soluble solids/total acidity ratio, pH, and total acidity. From the sensory analysis, several clones had a higher score for some descriptors in both study years and were more appreciated than others.
