Urban nature-based solutions planning for biodiversity outcomes: human, ecological, and artificial intelligence perspectives
Authors: Prodanovic Veljko , Bach Peter M. , Stojkovic Milan 
Published: May 2024

AbstractNature-based solutions (NBS) harness ecosystem services for urban enhancement, promoting biodiversity, habitat creation, and water management while improving human well-being. However, decision-making often favours specific NBS designs, leading to uneven benefits distribution. Whereas human-centric NBS design relies on convenience, financial sustainability, historical aspects, and amenity increase through NBS technical solutions, flora- and fauna-centric (or eco-centric) design targets spatial connectedness of blue-green spaces, increase in species richness, and habitat within urban centres. Both approaches can shape the urban biodiversity landscape, yet; they often clash around planning priorities. Recent advances in AI offer potential for AI-centric urban planning, though its role remains unclear. This study examines the interplay between biodiversity and NBS planning across human-, eco-, and AI-centric domains, aiming for balanced urban outcomes. We blended narrative, integrative, and systematic literature review and propose future steps for more balanced NBS development. The findings of this work suggest that AI presents an opportunity for a more balanced NBS design through its applications in climate change prediction, water management, and project visualisation. Incorporating AI into urban planning tools can expedite modelling process, improve stakeholder communication, and enhance project outcomes visualisation. By integrating human, eco, and AI-centric approaches, urban planners can foster resilience and sustainability in NBS implementation, ensuring equitable distribution of benefits across urban landscapes.

Authors: Özbek Yusuf , Bárdosi Zoltán , Freysinger Wolfgang 
Published: May 2024

Abstract
Purpose
A patient registration and real-time surgical navigation system and a novel device and method (Noctopus) is presented. With any tracking system technology and a patient/target-specific registration marker configuration, submillimetric target registration error (TRE), high-precise application accuracy for single or multiple anatomical targets in image-guided neurosurgery or ENT surgery is realized.

Methods
The system utilizes the advantages of marker-based registration technique and allows to perform automatized patient registration using on the device attached and with patient scanned four fiducial markers. The best possible sensor/marker positions around the patient’s head are determined for single or multiple region(s) of interest (target/s) in the anatomy. Once brought at the predetermined positions the device can be operated with any tracking system for registration purposes.

Results
Targeting accuracy was evaluated quantitatively at various target positions on a phantom skull. The target registration error (TRE) was measured on individual targets using an electromagnetic tracking system. The overall averaged TRE was 0.22 ± 0.08 mm for intraoperative measurements.

Conclusion
An automatized patient registration system using optimized patient-/target-specific marker configurations is proposed. High-precision and user-error-free intraoperative surgical navigation with minimum number of registration markers and sensors is realized. The targeting accuracy is significantly improved in minimally invasive neurosurgical and ENT interventions.
Digitaler Stress und die neuen Praktiken der Grenzziehung
Authors: Waldenburger Lisa , Wimmer Jeffrey 
Published: May 2024

ZusammenfassungIm Rahmen einer qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse untersucht der Beitrag die alltäglichen Medienpraktiken von Nutzer:innen mit Fokus auf die Reduzierung und den Verzicht von digitalen Kommunikationsmedien. Die fortschreitende Digitalisierung führt bei vielen Nutzer:innen zunehmend zu digitalem Stress, der maßgeblich durch das Gefühl der ständigen Erreichbarkeit, des Multitaskings, eines Überangebots an Kommunikationsmöglichkeiten und der damit einhergehenden Überforderung und Zeitnot ausgelöst wird. Im Alltag lassen sich vermehrt Praktiken des Abgrenzens, des Verzichts und der Reduzierung beobachten, um digitalen Stress zu verringern. Diese werden im vorliegenden Beitrag mit Fokus auf die generationalen Unterschiede untersucht, da die spezifischen alltagsbedingten Differenzen in der Medienkompetenz, Mediensozialisation und im Medienrepertoire der Nutzer:innen auch jeweils andere Praktiken hervorrufen. Auf empirischer Basis können insgesamt 17 verschiedene Praktiken der Grenzziehung entlang der vier Dimensionen Beschleunigung, Mittelbarkeit, Differenzierung und Optimierung identifiziert und illustriert werden. Im Ergebnis wird deutlich, dass sich lediglich die Praktiken des Einteilens, des Unterlassens und des Verlagerns in beiden Gruppen finden lassen und es somit deutliche Unterschiede in generationaler Hinsicht gibt. Diese lassen sich vor allem mit der Haltung zur eigenen Mediennutzung begründen. Für die Jüngeren impliziert der Verzicht eine aktive Begründungspflicht, da sie Medienhandeln als obligatorisch empfinden. Bei den Älteren findet sich dagegen ein gelassenerer Umgang mit Medien und daraus resultierend andere, selbstbestimmtere Praktiken der Grenzziehung.

Abstract
Purpose
Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (COPD) remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality across the world. We evaluated survival over 9 years in a cohort of patients with COPD requiring acute inpatient non-invasive ventilation (NIV). We analyzed prognostic indices to evaluate if they were associated with mortality.

Patients and methods
We performed a retrospective chart review of all patients who were admitted to St. James’s Hospital respiratory ward with COPD and acute hypercapnic respiratory failure who required NIV over a 12-month period and followed their outcomes over 9 years. We investigated the association between survival and potential prognostic variables using univariate analysis and multivariate Cox proportional hazards model. We evaluated the association between survival and the following parameters: age, gender, multiple admissions requiring NIV (> 1 admission in within 12 months of index presentation), home NIV use preadmission, initial arterial blood gas pH, days spent on NIV, serum albumin and serum albumin to serum CRP ratio at admission.

Results
Ninety-nine patients with COPD and acute hypercapnic respiratory failure were identified over a 12-month period from January to December 2011. Survival at 1, 2, 5 and 9 years was 65% (n = 64), 42% (n = 42), 25% (n = 25) and 21% (n = 21), respectively. Increasing age (p value < 0.001) and a lower serum albumin (p value < 0.005) were associated with a higher mortality. There was a trend towards improved survival in the group who were treated with home NIV prior to admission compared to no NIV therapy at home but this did not reach statistical significance (Fig. 3, p value = 0.088).

Conclusion
This study highlights the long-term mortality in patients with COPD admitted with hypercapnic respiratory failure requiring NIV and correlates with prior studies. Increasing age and lower serum albumin were associated with increased mortality. Home NIV may have a protective long-term survival benefit in patients with COPD who have been admitted for acute NIV.

Published: May 2024

AbstractReview studies are vital for advancing knowledge in many scientific fields, including mathematics education, amid burgeoning publications. Based on an extensive consideration of existing review typologies, we conducted a meta-review and bibliometric analysis to provide a comprehensive overview of and deeper insights into review studies within mathematics education. After searching Web of Science, we identified 259 review studies, revealing a significant increase in such studies over the last five years. Systematic reviews were the most prevalent type, followed by meta-analyses, generic literature reviews, and scoping reviews. On average, the review studies had a sample size of 99, with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines commonly employed. Despite certain studies offering nuanced distinctions among review types, ambiguity persisted. Only about a quarter of the studies explicitly reported employing specific theoretical frameworks (particularly, technology, knowledge, and competence models). Co-authored publications were most common within American institutions and the leading countries are the United States, Germany, China, Australia, and England in publishing most review studies. Educational review journals, educational psychology journals, special education journals, educational technology journals, and mathematics education journals provided platforms for review studies, and prominent research topics included digital technologies, teacher education, mathematics achievement, and learning disabilities. In this study, we synthesised a range of reviews to facilitate readers’ comprehension of conceptual congruities and disparities across various review types, as well as to track current research trends. The results suggest that there is a need for discipline-specific standards and guidelines for different types of mathematics education reviews, which may lead to more high-quality review studies to enhance progress in mathematics education.

Published: May 2024

Abstract
In this study, the distribution of biogenic macro and micro element contents in the peel, pulp, and seeds of some cultivated fruits was observed. The element concentrations of these fruits, which have high commercial value and consumption in the world, were analyzed with ICP-OES. In the “Golden” and “Starking” apple varieties, the lowest and highest calcium amounts were detected in the pulp and seed parts of the fruits, respectively. Additionally, the lowest and highest calcium amounts of pear and quince fruits were found in the seed and pulp and peel and seed parts of the fruits, respectively. Potassium amounts of “Golden” and “Starking” apple parts were established to be between 3585.82 (seed) and 3930.87 mg/kg (pulp) and 3533.82 (peel) and 5671.55 mg/kg (pulp), respectively. Potassium amounts of pear and quince fruit parts were measured to be between 2340.65 (seed) and 5405.97 mg/kg (pulp) and 4455.23 (seed) and 8551.12 mg/kg (pulp), respectively. Iron quantities of the parts of “Golden” and “Starking” apple fruits were established from 4.80 (pulp) and 17.14 mg/kg (seed) to 7.80 (pulp) and 14.53 mg/kg (peel), respectively. While the Fe quantities of pear fruit parts are found to be between 4.51 (pulp) and 15.40 mg/kg (peel), the Fe contents of the parts of quince fruits were determined to be between 5.59 (pulp) and 27.27 mg/kg (peel). Zinc quantities of the parts of pear and quince fruits were recorded to be between 8.43 (pulp) and 12.71 mg/kg (seed) and 0.96 (pulp) and 37.82 mg/kg (seed), respectively. In fruit parts, the highest element was found in the seed, followed by pulp and peel in decreasing order.

Abstract
Background
Gastrointestinal dysfunction frequently occurs following traumatic brain injury (TBI) and significantly increases posttraumatic complications. TBI can lead to alterations in gut microbiota. The neuroprotective effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) have not been well recognized after TBI. The study’'s aim was to investigate the impact of HBO on TBI-induced dysbiosis in the gut and the pathological changes in the brain following TBI.

Methods
Anesthetized male Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly assigned to three groups: sham surgery plus normobaric air (21% oxygen at 1 atmospheres absolute), TBI (2.0 atm) plus normobaric air, and TBI (2.0 atm) plus HBO (100% oxygen at 2.0 atmospheres absolute) for 60 min immediately after TBI, 24 h later, and 48 h later. The brain injury volume, tumor necrosis factor-α expression in microglia and astrocytes, and neuronal apoptosis in the brain were subsequently determined. The V3–V4 regions of 16S ribosomal rRNA in the fecal samples were sequenced, and alterations in the gut microbiome were statistically analyzed. All parameters were evaluated on the 3rd day after TBI.

Results
Our results demonstrated that HBO improved TBI-induced neuroinflammation, brain injury volume, and neuronal apoptosis. HBO appeared to increase the abundance of aerobic bacteria while inhibiting anaerobic bacteria. Intriguingly, HBO reversed the TBI-mediated decrease in Prevotella copri and Deinococcus spp., both of which were negatively correlated with neuroinflammation and brain injury volume. TBI increased the abundance of these gut bacteria in relation to NOD-lik0065 receptor signaling and the proteasome pathway, which also exhibited a positive correlation trend with neuro inflammation and apoptosis. The abundance of Prevotella copri was negatively correlated with NOD-like receptor signaling and the Proteasome pathway.

Conclusions
Our study demonstrated how the neuroprotective effects of HBO after acute TBI might act through reshaping the TBI-induced gut dysbiosis and reversing the TBI-mediated decrease of Prevotella copri.
Event Matching and the Biological Production of Spacetime
Authors: Nomura Naoki 
Published: May 2024

AbstractSpace and time have been explained not in terms of physical entities but in terms of practice, that is, based on communication, which includes spacetime code in the A-series, B-series, and E-series. Each code has a unique grammar, and it progresses through boundary operation, i.e., setting the limit and transgressing it, but in each distinct way. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the notion of event matching to elucidate the mechanism of meaning-making through boundary operations. Biological spacetime production is an incessant effort after meaning in the adaptive process, where the dia-metric scale in the E-series necessitates anticipatory (retrocausal) actions in the steps of interaction. This paper suggests that the three terms — event matching, meaning making, and spacetime production — are synonymous with each other in biological worlds. Evidence-based examples are provided to support the arguments.
Intellectual Property in the Age of the Environmental Crisis: How Trademarks and Copyright Challenge the Human Right to a Healthy Environment
Authors: Izyumenko Elena 
Published: May 2024

AbstractIn the face of the escalating environmental crisis driven by overconsumption, there is a growing recognition of the urgent need for environmental consciousness and a sustainable, circular economy. Practices like repair, refurbishment, and fashion upcycling have emerged as tangible efforts to mitigate the negative effects of this crisis. Perhaps unexpectedly, however, trademark and copyright laws clash with these endeavours, placing obstacles to sustainability goals. This paper contributes to the emerging literature devoted to studying this problem by undertaking the first in-depth analysis of the issue from a human rights law perspective. It specifically investigates the nature, scope, impact on, and consequences for intellectual property protection of the evolving human right to a healthy environment. Following a short introduction (1), the paper delves into the legal nature of obstacles posed by trademark and copyright protection to environmental sustainability (2), scrutinizes the human right to a healthy environment with a European emphasis (3), and proposes strategies for reconciling trademark and copyright protection with this fundamental right (4). The key findings are summarised at the end (5).

Published: May 2024

AbstractSeptic systems are potentially significant sources of nitrogen to groundwater and surface water. In-stream practices, such as in-stream bioreactors (IBRs), that promote or enhance nitrogen treatment are promising solutions to reduce nitrogen loads to nutrient-sensitive water. More work is needed to evaluate the efficiency of IBRs in new applications, such as residential sub-watersheds with a high-density of septic systems. The goal of this study was to quantify nitrogen treatment by an in-stream bioreactor (IBR) during baseflow conditions. The IBR was constructed in March 2017 when approximately 1 m of streambed sediment was excavated and backfilled with 0.75 m of woodchips capped by 0.2 m of rotary-kiln, expanded slate and boulder-sized riprap. Samples were collected monthly from July 2017 – March 2019 including IBR inflow, monitoring ports within the IBR, groundwater seeps draining to the IBR, and IBR outflow. Water samples were analyzed for total dissolved nitrogen (TDN), nitrate, ammonium, dissolved organic carbon, chloride, and nitrate isotopic fractionation. The IBR reduced the median concentration of TDN and nitrate by 40% and 77%, respectively. The median mass removal of TDN and nitrate was 26 and 5.2 g day− 1, respectively. Nitrogen-chloride ratios and isotopic fractionation data suggest that denitrification was likely a predominant nitrogen reduction mechanism. In addition to nitrogen treatment, the IBR provided other benefits by improving erosion control, streambank stabilization, and increased bank-full storage from 6 m3 to 19.2 m3. Results indicated that the IBR improved water quality and other residential sub-watersheds with septic systems would benefit from similar practices.
Thomas Abbt als Polemiker
Authors: Berger Demian 
Published: May 2024

ZusammenfassungDer Beitrag widmet sich der Rolle polemischer Verfahren in der Konstitution der bürgerlich-literarischen Öffentlichkeit Mitte des 18. Jahrhunderts, exemplarisch am Werk des Philosophen, Literaturkritikers und Lessing-Nachfolgers bei den Berliner Literaturbriefen Thomas Abbt. Dessen öffentlichkeitskonstitutive polemische Praxis realisiert sich als theologische Polemik, als polemischer Klassizismus, im Rahmen öffentlichkeitstheoretischer Überlegungen und unter beständigem reflexivem Umschlag nach strategischen oder ethischen Gesichtspunkten. Theoretische Basis der Untersuchung bildet ein idealtypischer Begriff von Polemik als variabler, nicht-dialogischer und öffentlicher Sprechweise mit epistemischer, ästhetischer und politischer Produktivität und stark reflexiver Tendenz.
Narrative Konstitutions- und Stabilisierungsangebote kollektiver ‚rechter‘ Identität in religionsbezogener Kommunikation
Authors: Watzel Anita , Merle Kristin 
Published: May 2024

ZusammenfassungDer vorliegende Beitrag zeigt narrative Konstitutions- und Stabilisierungsangebote kollektiver ,rechter‘ Identität in religionsbezogener Kommunikation auf. Dabei wird deutlich, dass die Affordanzen identitätsbildender Identifikationsangebote in der Konstruktion bestimmter Narrative angelegt sind. Exemplarisch zeigt sich dies über die Konturierung eines rechtspopulistischen (religiös getönten) Masternarrativs: Forcierte Distinktionsbestimmungen zielen auf eine bestimmte Strukturierung der Wahrnehmung sozialer Realität ab. Dazu bedienen sich Kommunikationsteilnehmer:innen auf synchroner Ebene der Figur des Anti-Elitismus, in diachroner Perspektive der Vitalisierung der Vorstellung eines ,heartlands‘, das in scharfem Kontrast zur krisenhaft beschriebenen Gegenwart steht. Beide Momente der potenziell (gruppen-)identitätsbildenden Angebote, so ist anzunehmen, begünstigen nicht zuletzt affektiv die diskursive Rezeptivität und Produktivität nicht nur des Masternarrativs, sondern auch entsprechender rechtspopulistischer Narrativfragmente. Wenngleich Gary Alan Fines Klassifizierung sogenannter „movement stories“ nicht eins zu eins auf das Material des Projektes anwendbar ist, so lässt die Relektüre des Materials mit der Brille der Ausdifferenzierung in „horror stories“, „war stories“ und „happy endings“ noch einmal die unterschiedlichen narrativen Möglichkeiten und Realisierungen potenziell identitätsstiftender Identifikationsangebote in rechtspopulistischer, gar als rechtsextrem zu bezeichnenden Kommunikationen aufleuchten.
School students’ perceptions of trees and wooden objects in their immediate home environment: Possible implications for school environments
Authors: Nmar-Kendöl Jutka , Fekete István 
Published: May 2024

AbstractWe present a county-wide statistically representative survey with 430 Hungarian school students demonstrating that students who have trees in the parental home environment show more positive attitude towards trees and wood than their peers who do not have any. We aimed at finding out about the current attitudes of the upcoming generation with regard to the use of wood and wood materials, and also about the question as to whether they would consciously use wood materials in the future. Results show that school students who have trees in their parental home environment show significantly higher scores on the cognitive, affective, and conative domains of attitude towards trees and wood compared to those who do not have trees in their parental home environment. The present study contributes to outdoor environmental education research in that we provide quantitative evidence for the positive effect of the immediate environment of children on the attitude towards wood and trees. The findings suggest the imperative need for further novel educational interventions in school gardens related to trees and wooden objects.
