Zusammenhänge der regionalen Verteilung von Tatverdächtigen bei digitalen Sexualdelikten mit kindlichen Opfern mit dem Verteilungsmuster anderer Straftaten und soziostrukturellen Merkmalen
Authors: Biedermann Jürgen , Rüdiger Thomas-Gabriel , Ehlert Cindy 
Published: March 2024

Zusammenfassung
Die zunehmende Anzahl von Sexualdelikten mit Bezug zu kindlichen Opfern insbesondere im digitalen Raum stellt aktuell eine große Herausforderung für präventive und repressive Ansätze dar. Anders als bei der allgemeinen und gewaltbezogenen Kriminalität ist der Forschungsstand zu regionalen soziostrukturellen Kontextfaktoren digitaler Sexualdelikte mit kindlichen Opfern unter Nutzung des Tatmittels Internet noch defizitär. Vorliegende Untersuchung analysiert das regionale Verteilungsmuster der polizeilich erfassten Anzahl der Tatverdächtigen dieser Delikte auf Kreisebene, vergleicht dieses Muster mit den entsprechenden Verteilungsmustern nicht-digitaler Sexualdelikte sowie der Straßen- und Gewaltkriminalität und ermittelt Zusammenhänge zu soziostrukturellen Merkmalen der Landkreise und kreisfreien Städte. In die Analysen gingen alle Tatverdächtigen ein, die zwischen 2016 und 2021 in den Bundesländern der Sicherheitskooperation Ost polizeilich für die berücksichtigten Deliktkategorien registriert wurden. Im Vergleich zur Gewalt- und Straßenkriminalität werden die Tatverdächtigen der digitalen Sexualdelikte mit ihrem Tatort häufiger in ländlichen Regionen außerhalb der Großstädte registriert und die Zusammenhänge des regionalen Verteilungsmusters mit Kriterien der ökonomischen Lage eines Kreises fallen schwächer aus. Darüber hinaus konnte kein Zusammenhang zwischen der Anzahl von Tatverdächtigen mit digitalen und nicht-digitalen Sexualdelikten in den Landkreisen festgestellt werden. Die Ergebnisse werden im Hinblick auf die kriminologischen Spezifika digitaler Sexualdelikte und eine geeignete Ausrichtung von Präventionsansätzen sowie zu berücksichtigenden Limitationen des Untersuchungsansatzes diskutiert.

Published: March 2024

Abstract
This research article analytically investigates a soliton equation of high dimensions, particularly with applications, and precisely in the fields of physical sciences and engineering. The soliton equation of high dimensions, particularly with applications, and precisely in the fields of physical sciences along with engineering, is examined with a view to securing various pertinent results of interest. For the first time, the conserved currents of an integrodifferential equation (especially those of higher dimensions) are calculated using a detailed optimal system of one-dimensional subalgebras. Infinitesimal generators of diverse structures ascribed to Lie point symmetries of the understudy model are first calculated via Lie group analysis technique. Additionally, we construct various commutations along Lie-adjoint representation tables connected to the nine-dimensional Lie algebra achieved. Further to that, detailed and comprehensive computation of the optimal system of one-dimensional subalgebras linked to the algebra is also unveiled for the under-investigated model. This, in consequence, engenders the calculation of abundant conserved currents for the soliton equation through Ibragimov’s conserved vector theorem by utilizing its formal Lagrangian. Later, the applications of our results are highlighted.

Published: March 2024

Abstract
Atrial fibrillation, a prevalent cardiac arrhythmia, disrupts the normal path of electrical signals within the heart. To address this issue, the left atrial appendage closure is often considered. This involves using a closure instrument named the Watchman to obstruct the left atrial appendage (LAA) ostium. The wide variety of LAA shapes, sizes, and forms in individuals makes selecting the correct Watchman size crucial. This study first isolates the LAA from echocardiographic images and then recommends the appropriate Watchman size. The 3-D echocardiographic images used in this study are from 32 male and female patients who underwent successful LAA closure at Kings College Hospital London over two years. For each patient, there are 208 cardiac echo slices in the imaging mode. This study presents an image processing-based model to separate LAA regions and extract relevant features. These features are then inputted into a classification platform in which a neural network determines the suitable Watchman size. The average and mode Hausdorff distances, calculated between the proposed method and the traditional manual calculation for the 501 analyzed LAA images, are approximately 0.2467 and 0.0587, respectively. Because of limited data, a 10-fold cross-validation was used to assess the classifier, yielding an accuracy of 74.07 %. The proposed model effectively isolated the LAA from the corresponding slices of the 3-D echocardiographic images. However, the classifier’s accuracy is not ideal because of insufficient data, which could be improved by expanding the database. This research’s outcomes could aid physicians in selecting the proper Watchman size.

Published: March 2024

Lojistik, yatırım kârını azami seviyeye yükseltmek için bir ürünü depolayabilen veya stratejik olarak akışlarını belirli bir plan dahilinde kontrol edebilen bir yönetim kararı oluşturmaya yönelik sistemdir. Lojistik Performans Endeksi (LPI), ülkelerin lojistik alanında durum tespiti yapabilmeleri ve iyileştirmeleri gereken alanları belirlemede oldukça önemlidir. Bu makale G20 ülkelerinin lojistik performanslarını Çok kriterli karar verme (ÇKKV) yöntemleri ile değerlendirmektedir. Çalışmada kullanılan veriler Dünya Bankası’nın 2018 yılında yayınladığı LPI raporundan alınmıştır. ÇKKV yöntemleri, en iyi performans gösteren alternatifin seçimi veya istenilen hedef doğrultusunda performans ölçümleme ve sıralama ihtiyacı duyulan her alanda kullanılabilmektedir. Çalışmada kullanılan ÇKKV yöntemleri herhangi bir çalışmada birlikte daha önce kullanılmamıştır. Bu nedenle bu çalışma özgün bir çalışmadır. Çalışmada kriter ağırlıklarının değerlendirilmesinde üç farklı yöntem (SD, PSI ve MEREC) bir arada kullanılmıştır. Bu üç farklı yöntemin bir arada kullanılmasıyla daha kesin ve güvenilir sonuçların elde edildiği düşünülmektedir.
Çalışmada alternatiflerin sıralanması için literatürde nadiren kullanılan MARA (Magnitude of the Area for the Ranking of Alternatives/Alternatiflerin Sıralanması için Alan Büyüklüğü) yöntemi uygulanmıştır. Literatürde MARA yöntemi kullanılarak yapılan Türkçe yayın bulunmamaktadır. Çalışma literatürde bulunan bu boşluğu doldurmayı hedeflemektedir. Uygulanan yöntemler ve elde edilen sonuçlar doğrultusunda Almanya en iyi performans gösteren alternatif olarak belirlenmiştir.

Published: March 2024

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES
Parents and family caregivers of children with severe neurologic impairment (SNI) experience many stressors, especially during their child’s critical illness. This study aimed to examine parent experiences around the time of their child’s PICU care to explore ways parents make meaning in relation to these stressors.

METHODS
This qualitative study of data from a single center in the United States followed Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research guidelines. One to one semistructured interviews queried parents’ psychosocial well-being around the time of their child’s PICU care. Eligible participants had a child with an SNI condition for &gt;3 months admitted to the PICU for &gt;24 hours with an expected length of stay &gt;1 week.

RESULTS
Data were analyzed by a research team with expertise in palliative care, psychology, critical care, and qualitative methods. Fifteen family caregivers of 15 children participated. Children were a median of 8 years old (interquartile range 4–11.5) and 80% (n = 12) had congenital/genetic conditions. Parent/family caregivers were a median age of 39 years old (interquartile range 36–42.5); 20% (n = 3) self-identified as fathers and 47% (n = 7) as having to a minority racial background. Parents discussed ongoing meaning-making that occurred through domains of comprehension and purpose, and themes of understanding of other people and the world around them. Subthemes focused on appreciation/acceptance, adaptability/accountability, valuing all lives, and learning/teaching about their child.

CONCLUSIONS
Meaning-making may be an opportunity for support in the PICU among parents/family caregivers of children with SNI.

Published: March 2024

OBJECTIVES
To understand tension mothers experience when attempting to follow American Academy of Pediatrics safe sleep guidelines and enhancing infant and parental sleep.

METHODS
Surveys and focus groups were conducted from November 2022 and March 2023 with United States-based English-speaking mothers of infants &lt;6 months of age recruited via social media and who reported a nonrecommended sleep position and/or location ≥2 times the prior week.

RESULTS
Twenty-five mothers participated in focus groups and surveys. A total of 80% reported holding or rocking their infant to sleep; 76% fed their infant to sleep. Almost all were aware of the ABCs (Alone, Back, Crib) of safe sleep and intended to follow them before delivery. Many felt that ABCs were unrealistic and placed their infants in nonrecommended locations or positions because they perceived them as more comfortable and helping their infant fall and stay asleep. Mothers were more likely to use nonrecommended practices when they were awake or sleeping nearby and believed they could closely monitor their infant. Some questioned whether ABCs were the only way to achieve safe sleep. Some prioritized other safety concerns (eg, fall prevention) over sudden infant death syndrome or sudden unexpected infant death prevention. Mothers expressed confidence about getting their baby to sleep in general but were less confident that they could do this while following guidelines.

CONCLUSIONS
Despite awareness of the ABCs, mothers regularly engaged in nonrecommended practices with the goal of improving their own and their infant’s sleep. Interventions focused on improving infant and parental sleep while maintaining sleep safety are needed.
Russo–Ukrainian war: Limits of Western economic sanctions
Authors: Rosefielde Steven , Bernstam Michael 
Published: March 2024

AbstractThe potency of economic sanctions imposed on nations depends on demand and supply adjustment possibilities. Adverse GDP impacts will be maximal when import, export, production, distribution and finance are inflexible (universal non-substitution). This paper elaborates these conditions, and quantifies the maximum GDP loss that Western sanctions could have inflicted on Russia in 2022–2023. It reports the World Bank's predictions, contrasts them with results and draws inferences about the efficiency of Russia's workably competitive markets. The paper shows that Russia's economic system exhibits moderate universal substitutability and is less vulnerable to punitive discipline than Western policymakers suppose. The likelihood that the Kremlin will restore Ukraine's territorial integrity, ceteris paribus, is correspondingly low. The authors also observe that unintended adverse side effects from sanctions and counter-sanctions were excessive because policymakers chose to maximize GDP-damage to Russia instead of optimizing Western and third-party net benefits. Given moderate substitutability, Western policymakers can switch to smart net benefit maximizing sanctions that enhance Western and third-party welfare without significantly bolstering Russia's military industrial productivity and war-waging capabilities by retaining embargoes on weapons, technology and critical components, while selectively softening other restrictions. Smart sanctions might facilitate a negotiated settlement of the Russo–Ukrainian war.

Published: March 2024

AbstractThe tuning of the self-propagating reaction is studied theoretically by introducing a non-reactive material between two reactive material elements. For the study, the Ni/Al bilayer system was chosen. The Ni/Al elements were placed on a silicon wafer covered with a 1-µm-thick silicon dioxide. The spaces between the multilayer reactive material elements were filled with different non-reactive materials covering a wide range of thermal properties. On top of this heterogeneous layer, a 1-µm-thick sealing layer was placed consisting of the filler material. The carried out two-dimensional simulations demonstrated that embedding material allows to scale the ignition transfer time and the heat propagation velocity. For example, for a transfer length of 1 µm, the ignition time can be tuned from nano- to microseconds. Consequently, in contrast to previous results embedding materials allow scaling the properties of the self-propagating reaction in heterogeneous reactive material systems.

Fanny Cradock remains best known for her ball-gowns, brows and her berating of assistants, but she also had a lifelong ambition, threaded through her work. She wanted to bring the gastronomic landscape of Europe to the housewives of Britain. From her early days as a young, ambitious, jobbing newspaper feature writer, food activist and campaigner, to her rise as a television celebrity extraordinaire, she championed the style, the feel and the food of the Continent. This essay looks at Craddock's career and asks, was Fanny as ‘ProEU’ as she seemed, or would Brexit be more up her boulevard?
Desafios do Sistema Nacional de Avaliação do Ensino Superior (SINAES)
Authors: Bielschowsky Carlos Eduardo 
Published: March 2024

No momento em que o SINAES comemora 20 anos, seus indicadores principais mostram fragilidades para dar conta do atual momento do ensino superior, fruto da concentração de matrículas em poucos grupos privados com intensa utilização de Educação a Distância (EaD) de baixa qualidade.
Mostramos neste trabalho que as avaliações externas que levam ao Conceito Institucional (CI e CI-EaD), bem como ao Conceito de Curso (CC), não conseguem separar minimamente as IES que vêm oferecendo uma contribuição com qualidade à educação superior e à pesquisa científica no país, daquelas empresas de capital aberto que estão focadas no lucro com oferta de ensino de baixa qualidade. Mostramos também algumas fragilidades no Conceito Provisório de Curso (CPC) como instrumento de regulação da oferta de ensino superior.

La crise du chikungunya ou la colonialité d’une crise environnementale et sanitaire à la Réunion
Authors: THIANN-BO MOREL Marie 
Published: March 2024

2006 est l'année de la crise sanitaire du chikungunya à La Réunion. La venue de renforts militaires pour démoustiquer l'île signale "l'état de guerre sanitaire" pendant 3 mois. Les nombreuses analyses de cette crise sanitaire pointent sa formulation en un problème de moustiques. D'ailleurs la principale erreur attribuée aux gestionnaires de santé publique serait de n’avoir vu dans les premiers signalements de malades (dès 2005) qu’un problème de moustiques et marginalisé les malades. Cette formulation du problème public "chikungunya" comme environnementale est partagée par de nombreux autres acteurs. Ainsi, la crise a été l'occasion d'exprimer sur la place publique un souci pour la nature. Ces acteurs le reformulent comme un enjeu de justice pour les hommes et la nature et demandent que leurs intérêts soient reconnus. En se mobilisant, ils ont revendiqué une gestion équitable de la crise : équitable à la fois pour les malades et pour la nature. Justice sanitaire et justice écologique sont alors rendues indissociables. De ce fait, la crise du chikungunya constitue un double mouvement de justice environnementale : en mettant l'environnement au rang de "ce qui compte" et en dénonçant les rapports de pouvoir et la colonialité qui s'y joue. En effet, parce qu'elle se situe dans une postcolonie, cette crise rend compte également de la colonialité de l'action publique sur ce territoire.
THE IMPACT OF PRODUCT AND PROCESS INNOVATIONS ON FINANCIAL RESULTS: АN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF RUSSIAN COMPANIES
Authors: Orlovtseva O. M. , Gubanova E. V. 
Published: March 2024

The relationship between product and process innovation and financial performance remains largely unexplored, especially for Russian firms. An analysis of publications on this topic shows both a positive and a negative relationship. At the same time, there are no empirical studies based on Russian companies. This study was conducted on the basis of empirical data from 137 Russian companies. The study shows that investment in R&D has a positive effect on the financial results of the company; and the financial results of the companies depend on the type of innovation (product or process) that the companies carry out.Conducting R&D and scientific research related to product and process innovations can increase the profitability of sales, which characterises the financial results of Russian companies. In addition, it was concluded that the relationship between process innovations and financial results is stronger than the relationship between product innovations and financial results, which means that it is more profitable to develop and implement process innovations.
