Awareness, perceptions and practices of UK veterinary nurses on managing the risk of malnutrition in hospitalised cats and dogs
Authors: Garbutt-Byers Chloe , Holt Susan L 
Published: April 2024

Aims: There is minimal research surrounding malnutrition in hospitalised cats and dogs. This study investigated current attitudes, knowledge, practices and barriers for veterinary nurses when managing patients at risk of malnutrition. Methods: A 28-question online survey was distributed to UK veterinary nurses. The quantitative data underwent both descriptive and inferential analysis, while the qualitative data was analysed using latent thematic analysis. The sample totaled 56 registered veterinary nurses and 23 student veterinary nurses. Results: Respondents were less confident identifying cats at risk of malnutrition (median 7.0/10.0) compared to dogs (median 8.0/10.0). Respondents were less satisfied that malnutrition is addressed effectively in cats (median 6.0/10.0) compared to dogs (median 7.0/10.0). Satisfaction that malnutrition is addressed in a timely manner was 6.0/10.0 (median), mostly due to delayed feeding tube placement (n=23, 29%). Few respondents use a muscle condition score (n=18, 23%) and even fewer (2.5%, n=2) listed muscle loss as a risk factor. Barriers included a lack of protocols (n=53, 67%). Conclusions: Malnutrition is addressed less effectively, and assessed less confidently, in cats. Moreover, malnutrition is not addressed in a timely manner due to slow and inconsistent interventions. Therefore, education, increased awareness and protocols may aid in addressing malnutrition.

Published: April 2024

BackgroundEchogenic Intracardiac Foci (EIF) are non-structural markers identified during the routine 18–20-week foetal anomaly ultrasound scan yet their clinical significance on future outcomes for the infant is unclear.ObjectiveTo examine the association between EIF and risk of preterm birth, chromosomal abnormalities, and cardiac abnormalities.DesignA review across four databases to identify English language journal articles of EIF using a cohort study design. All studies were reviewed for quality using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) checklist and data extracted for comparison and analysis.Results19 papers from 9 different countries were included. Combining these studies showed 4.6% (95% CI = 4.55–4.65%) of all pregnancies had EIF which was on the left in 86% of cases, on the right in 3% of cases and bilaterally in 10%. There was no evidence that EIF was associated with higher rates of preterm birth. However, it is possible that infants with EIF were more likely to be terminated rather than be born preterm as there was a 2.1% (range 0.3–4.2%) rate of termination or death of the foetus after week 20 among those with EIF. There was no evidence that EIF alone is highly predictive of chromosomal abnormalities. There was evidence that EIF is associated with higher rates of minor cardiac abnormalities (e.g. ventricular septal defect, tricuspid regurgitation or mitral regurgitation)) with 5.1% (224 of 4385) of those with EIF showing cardiac abnormalities (3.08% in retrospective studies and 17.85% in prospective studies). However, the risk of cardiac defects was only higher with right-sided EIF and where the EIF persisted into the third trimester. However, this is a rare event and would be seen in an estimated 4 per 10,000 pregnancies.ConclusionEIF alone was not associated with adverse outcomes for the infant. Only persistent EIF on the right side showed evidence of carrying a higher risk of cardiac abnormality and would warrant further follow-up.
On a Newly Discovered Acrostic in Virgil (Ecl. 4.9–11): The ‘Tenth’ Age
Authors: Adkin Neil 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
A syllabic acrostic (de-ca-te, “tenth”) has recently been discovered by Leah Kronenberg at Eclogue 4.9–11. The aim of the present article is to adduce further evidence for the intentionality of this acrostic. The article begins by pointing to corroborative clues in the text encompassed by the acrostic itself. Attention is then drawn to the overlooked deni‑acrostic in the previous Eclogue (3.55–58). This acrostical deni, for whose intentionality arguments are likewise adduced, evidently serves to corroborate acrostical decate. This deni‑acrostic is itself confirmed shortly afterwards by decem (Ecl. 3.71), which is in turn an imitation of Theocritus (Id. 3.10). This Theocritean text, which contains the word δέκα in ‘line ten’, provides further corroboration of the decate-acrostic, which is likewise centred around ‘line ten’. In particular it is argued that this passage of Theocritus has inspired the noun which decate can be shown to qualify.

Published: April 2024

Abstract
In the Elbe-Weser Triangle, located in the north-west of Germany and framed by the rivers Elbe and Weser, a total of approx. 350 megaliths of the Funnel Beaker Culture (FBC) have been identified. Despite their large number there is little knowledge about the monuments themselves, their architecture or their history of use. This lack of information is partly attributed to widespread destruction or disturbance of the megaliths located in the open landscape during the past centuries. Other monuments have been covered by bog or clay deposits of marine inundations and thus have not been investigated or even found, yet. However, due to intense draining measures within the bog area of Ahlen-Falkenberg, dist. Cuxhaven several megalithic graves were discovered in the past decades, revealing a protected burial landscape of the 4th and 3rd millennium BC. This paper focuses on three passage graves, which have been examined in the scope of a research project in the years 2019–2022. The fieldwork has brought to light well preserved elements of the original burial structures, including a protective massive stone packing around the chambers. We were further able to identify and typochronologically date different burial activities of the FBC, as well as activities related to people associated with the Single Grave Culture. The latter seem to have had massive impact on the monuments and their accessibility. In the light of environmental changes in the Neolithic, the reconstruction of the monuments biographies was attempted. In sum the monuments show individual, local and regional traditions that were embedded in a supra-regional FBC network.
Effect of asymmetric leading edge on transition of suction side
Authors: Chen Yutian , Zheng Qun , Li Zhijie , Jiang Bin 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
Asymmetric leading edge offers several advantages over conventional leading edge. However, there are few related published research on compressor blades. This study proposes a blade parameterization method that superimposing the thickness distribution on the camber line at the middle and curve fitting at the leading and trailing edges. This parameterization method is applied to a stator in the final stage of an axial compressor, and numerical simulation is used to calculate the aerodynamic performance at various attack angles under the designed inlet Mach number. There is an optimal deflection angle regardless of which side of the leading edge deflects, and deflection toward the pressure side is conducive to the suppression of separation bubble near the leading edge at positive attack angle. When the maximum curvature of the pressure side is decreased, the operating range changed slightly, but the positive attack angle range grew from 5.166° to 5.466°.
The Anthropocenic Cupola
Authors: Gruber Malte-Christian 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
One of the future challenges of law is to create possibilities for dealing with conflicts in ways that meet the fundamental requirements of environmental and climate protection.
Climate responsibility, as a collective ecological responsibility, is not only expected socially from state policymakers and business enterprises, but also increasingly claimed legally. With the perspective of an ecological private law that thinks of interests worthy of protection and of legal subjectivity from the point of view of vulnerability, new legal channels open up for those affected to take action against impending climate hazards or damage and to demand compensation. Fatefully connected by jointly-suffered climate catastrophes, life communities assemble as associations of human and non-human beings that all incur injury. Legal protection for these injured beings can thus no longer be directed exclusively to human needs but must be based on the ubiquitous vulnerability of all forms of life – a vulnerability that is particularly evident in the face of climate change. The ecological private law of the future will have to ensure that those living entities affected can sue on the basis of their own right. In this way, an effective ecological climate law protection would be created, whose essential task is to help enforce climate policy decisions made in the interest of society.
Restoration of gender inequalities through anti-abortion reforms: Can Teubner’s “anonymous matrix of communications” help feminists?
Authors: Krajewska Atina 
Published: April 2024

Abstract
This article is a response to the new wave of legal changes restricting access to abortion in several countries across the world, which have substantially undermined the global advances in the field of reproductive rights observed in recent years. To address this problem, the article derives insights from two important bodies of literature that are usually perceived as theoretically and ideologically counterposed, namely feminist legal studies and systems theory. In juxtaposing two important academic literatures, the article exposes gaps in both, and it demonstrates the conceptual potentials inherent in this juxtaposition. The article engages with the work of Drucilla Cornell and Gunther Teubner, who – despite their very different intellectual backgrounds – provided progressive interpretations of systems theory. It further critically examines whether societal constitutionalism can help feminists explain the recent developments in abortion law across the world. It engages critically with Teubner’s arguments concerning the role that human rights play in constraining the expansive tendencies of social systems, such as politics and religion, revealing the limitations of Teubner’s arguments in relation to reproductive rights and justice. At the same time, the article helps restate the contemporary relevance of systems-theoretical approaches in atypical fields like reproductive justice and gender studies.
Harboring alien lifeworlds: The second-person in thought insertion
Authors: Garavito María Clara 
Published: April 2024

In phenomenology, the delusion of thought insertion is described and explained in different ways. There is a common idea that the delusion depends either on a lack of sense of agency or on a confusion between self and others. I propose that the delusion is an alienation in regard to what is expressed in some thoughts, that make them unfamiliar. In this perspective, the delusion has to do with the fact that the lifeworld expressed in inserted thought is given in a second-person perspective, is rooted in a different lived-body experience than one’s own. This contrasts with ordinary thoughts which are given in the first-person perspective, with which we have a sense of intimacy. This discussion is an opportunity for putting forth the idea of the second-person perspective: that is, certain experiences of the world are given to me through others, as distinct from those that are given to me directly as a lived body. In inserted thoughts, there is a sense in which some perspectives of reality, different to my own, are disclosed through an alien voice or through inside me. The distinction between the first person and second person perspectives leads to a better understanding of the primal constitution of the self and of others, based on the relation between the body and the world as it is given to us.
Should Islamic Window be converted into a Full-Fledge Islamic Bank? A case study in Indonesia
Authors: Abimanyu Anggito , At Tamimi Abdullah 
Published: April 2024

Research Originality: This research provides fresh perspectives on the future landscape of Islamic banking, particularly concerning the Islamic window. The paper stands out for its originality as it undertakes an empirical study utilizing a mixed method. This study is also expected to answer the research gap between literature studies, empirical studies, and implemented policies. Additionally, it is driven by the objective of contributing to the existing literature on Islamic finance.Research Objectives: This study dives into whether converting Islamic Business Units (UUS) into full-fledged Islamic Banks (BUS) leads to performance enhancement.Research Methods: There are two types of data analysis methods, namely qualitative and quantitative. The qualitative analysis method comes from a collection of literature reviews and institutional opinions from Islamic banking experts in the world. This study employs a multi-pronged quantitative approach to investigate the performance and consumer perception of Islamic banking services with an emphasis on UUS and BUS.Empirical Result: The results indicate that UUS and BUS structures adhere to Sharia principles and achieve commendable performance. However, analysis of financial reports across many countries, including Indonesia, shows that UUS's financial performance is generally better than BUS. The research further emphasizes that internal factors like capital adequacy, asset quality, and management capabilities, rather than the institutional structure itself, hold greater sway in driving performance improvement. Forced conversion of UUS could even hinder overall progress. Implications: Beyond financial considerations, the study explores consumer behavior through surveys with educated individuals. The results indicate that their choice between BUS and UUS products is guided by practical factors such as financial returns, costs, and service reliability offered by each structure.

Authors: Baykut Ender , Gökgöz Halilibrahim 
Published: April 2024

Research Originality: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study which measures the impact of the MOVE index on bond yield volatility by comparing its effect on both short-term and long-term. The paper contributes to the existing literature by providing a better understanding of the relationship between maturity and volatility spillover. Research Objectives: This study examines the dynamic volatility connectedness between 2 and 10-year bond yields and the MOVE Index. Furthermore, it is aimed at detecting the transmitter of volatility among variables. Research Methods: Using a data set from 2010 to 2022, the study utilizes a Time-Varying Parameter Vector Autoregression (TVP-VAR) model to analyse the dynamics and relationship between bond yields and the MOVE Index. Empirical Results: The study finds a significant volatility spillover between the MOVE Index and Türkiye's bond yields. Notably, the linkage between the MOVE Index and the 10-year bond rates is stronger than with the 2-year rates. Additionally, the MOVE Index emerges as the primary transmitter of volatility, impacting both bond yields. Implications: This study sheds light on the complexity and dynamics of volatility spread in Türkiye's bond market, providing essential insights for forecasting bond yields and shaping financial policies.JEL Classification: G17, C22, G12How to Cite:Baykut, E., Gökgöz, H.

Authors: Risza Handi 
Published: April 2024

Research Originality: Technological developments have changed human behavior in economic activities, including payment methods that use e-wallets. On the other hand, consumers also need an e-wallet that complies with Sharia principles. The COVID-19 pandemic forced consumers to use digital payment methods. However, the number of studies related to the continued usage of Islamic e-wallets in Indonesia remains limited.Research Objectives: Hence, our study examines the factors influencing a person's intention to use an Islamic e-wallet.Research Method: The theoretical framework used in this study is the Technology Acceptance Model. The analysis technique employed is multiple regression analysis using 371 respondents.Result: Empirical results indicate that the factors influencing a person's intention to use an Islamic e-wallet are usability, ease of use, trustworthiness, and religiosity. However, the risk variable does not significantly affect a person's intention to use an Islamic e-wallet. Implication: These results imply that companies must improve the features and services of Islamic e-wallet applications.JEL Classification: D10, G29How to Cite:Risza, H. (2024).

Hybridization of CSA and PSO improves the efficacy of MPPT for solar photovoltaic array with partial shading
Authors: Challoob Ali Falih , Bin Rahmat Nur Azzammudin , A/L Ramachandaramurthy Vigna K. , Humaidi Amjad J. 
Published: April 2024

AbstractOne critical issue in the tracking systems based on photovoltaic (PV) is how to harvest highest power of the photovoltaic array; particularly when the system is operating in partially shaded conditions (PSCs) or varying irradiances. This study proposes particle swarm optimization (PSO) hybridization and cuckoo search algorithm (CSA) methods for maximum power point tracking (MPPT). The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is validated and examined under various irradiance patterns. A comparison study in performance has been conducted between the proposed hybrid CSA-PSO method with the conventional P&O and PSO techniques. Several tests have been performed based on numerical simulations utilizing the programming software MATLAB/Simulink. The results demonstrated that the suggested hybrid technique yields smaller tracking time, higher power and greater efficiency than those of other traditional algorithms.
