Abstract
This study aims to assess the chemical composition of the aqueous extract of Cistus albidus L. leaves, as well as the potential of aqueous and hydroethanol extracts of the leaves and seeds as analgesic, anti--inflammatory, and antioxidant agents. The contents of phenolics and inorganic constituents were determined in C. albidus seeds and leaves; antioxidant capacity was assessed by 3 complementary and diverse tests. The carrageenan-induced paw edema technique was used to investigate the anti-inflammatory effect in vivo, and albumin denaturation to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect in vitro. The acetic acid-induced contortion test, the tail-flick test, and the plantar test were used to assess the analgesic effi cacy in vivo.
Chemical analysis was performed by UPLC-MS/MS to quantify several phenolic compounds including catechin (1,627.6 mg kg−1), quercitrin (1,235.8 mg kg–1) and gallic acid (628. 2 mg kg−1). The ICP analysis revealed that potassium and calcium were the main inorganic components in the seeds and leaves of C. albidus. The hydroethanolic extract of the leaves showed the highest content of polyphenols/flavonoids, whereas the highest value of proantho cyanidins was detected in the aqueous extract of the seeds. All extracts showed potent antioxidant activity related to different phenolic compounds (quercetin, gallic acid, astragalin, catechin, and rutin). The aqueous extract of the leaves strongly inhibited paw edema (76.1 %) after 6 h of treatment and showed maximal inhibition of protein denaturation (191.0 µg mL−1 for 50 % inhibition) and analgesic activity in different nociceptive models. The presented data reveal that C. albidus extracts potentially show antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic activities that could confirm the traditional use of this plant.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to determine the mineral content in the leaves and flowers of wild-grown Sambucus nigra collected from eleven different locations in Kosovo. The samples were digested in a microwave system using the wet digestion method. The minerals were determined by the application of inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). A total of 31 elements were determined, 15 elements by the ICP-AES method (Al, B, Ba, Ca, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, P, Sr, V, and Zn) and 16 elements by the ICP-MS method (Ag, As, Be, Bi, Cd, Co, Cs, Ga, Hg, In, Li, Ni, Pb, Rb, Tl, and U). The leaves of S. nigra show a higher content of minerals compared to the flowers, except for the flower of the sample SN-FL10, which is characterized by a high concentration of Fe, Al, Pb, Be, and Tl. The concentration of heavy metals and toxic elements (Pb, Cd, and Hg) was within the permissible concentrations according to Eur. Ph.
From Corpus Data to Constructional Networks: Analyzing Language with the Usage-Based Construction Grammar Framework
Authors: Horsch Jakob 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Construction Grammar (CxG) is an innovative approach to language that has become increasingly popular in the Anglosphere over the last 30 years. In CxG, the basic units of linguistic analysis are constructions: arbitrary and conventional form-meaning pairings, reminiscent of Saussure’s linguistic sign, but applied to levels of linguistic analysis beyond the lexicon. A large body of research has provided ample evidence in support of CxG. However, the theory remains unknown to many colleagues outside the Anglosphere.
In this paper, I highlight a particularly interesting strand of CxG that is referred to as ‘usage-based’, an approach that assumes constructions are learned based on input frequency, that is, through repeated exposure to and use of a linguistic structure (hence usage-based). The main aim of this paper is thus to demonstrate how corpus data can be analyzed to find evidence for ‘entrenchment’ of linguistic structures and thus, the existence of constructions. I will illustrate this procedure by applying so-called covarying-collexeme analyses to data from the Slovak National Corpus (SNC) and the Slovak Web 2011 corpus from which I extracted 785 tokens of the so-called Comparative Correlative (CC) construction (e.g. Čím viac čítam, tým viac rozumiem).

Published: March 2024

Abstract
This paper is a conceptual supplement sui generis, the aim of which is to present a modified treatment of proper names and deproprial expressions in the Academic Dictionary of Contemporary Czech (ADCC). The focus of the study is both a reflection on the past and current lexicographical practice and a discussion of the key issues related to the treatment of the respective lexical subsystem in the dictionary. First, we summarize the basic facts concerning the lexicographic processing of proprial and deproprial lexical units in the field of explanatory lexicography. Second, we provide some more general information about the ADCC and, most importantly, about the macrostructure and microstructure of the dictionary in reference to the topic of the present study. We focus on the inclusion of proprial and deproprial entries in the ADCC and the specific treatment of proper names contained in phrasemes. Special attention is paid to the microstructure of proprial and deproprial entries, as well.
Creativity and copyright law in the process of translation
Authors: Vargová Dominika , Varga Juraj 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
The paper aims to point to the presence of creativity in translation. First, it analyzes the translation process, in which it uncovers its creative aspects, and then identifies the creative potential of individual types of translation. It reveals the possibilities available to translators in order to apply their creative translation solutions. The above view of translation as a process and translation as a product presents translators in a role that is often questioned and even overlooked – the role of a creator, while complementing the assessment of their work from the point of view of law. How does the law interpret creative activity in the case of translation, and when is the result of such activity, a translation, protected by copyright law? Under what conditions can a translator become an author? The authors attempt to answer such questions with an interdisciplinary understanding of the issue of creativity in translation, which, from their perspective, deserves increased attention from both the lay and professional public.
Children’s analogism in the acquisition of morphology as a reflection of linguistic thinking
Authors: Sokolová Jana Kičura , Palková Lenka 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
The paper presents psycholinguistic personal case study in its character. It focuses on the analogous (hypergeneralizing) formation of nouns and verbs in the ontogenesis of children’s speech through the prism of linguistic principles. The basic research material is diary entries of 364 grammatical forms of two children aged 1;10 – 2;7 years and 3;8 – 4;5 years (recorded during the ten months in 2017), which are incompatible with the literary norm of the Slovak language. The basic starting point was the hypothesis that agrammatic forms in children’s speech can be categorized and explained on the basis of natural language principles, whose application presupposes a certain level in the development and functioning of logical and thought operations and the cognitive system as such. The analysis of research material enabled us to generalize certain tendencies in the ontogenesis of the morphological system in children, which lead to structural iconism, uniform symbolization, systemicity and unification of the word-formation basis. The application of the principles in children’s speech has proved to be specific – the child applies in his speech mainly the principles of analogy, naturalness and dominance. The limit of the presented longitudinal research is the small number of respondents and the very nature of the research problem, whose solution requires intensive contact with the child subject, a longer period of time and more extensive research material.
Red Persistent Luminescence and Trap Properties of Mg2SiO4: Mn2+, M3+ (M3+ = B3+; Al3+; Ga3+; In3+) Material
Authors: Doke G. 
Published: March 2024

Abstract
Persistent luminescence (PersL), also called long-lasting phosphorescence or simply afterglow, is a luminescence characterised by the emission of radiation from a few seconds to several days after the excitation source has been switched off. Over the past two decades, research on PersL materials, both in fundamental and applied physics, has developed rapidly; however, the explanation for the physical processes that cause afterglow still needs to be clarified. Today, PersL materials are used mainly for luminescent paints, safety signs and decorations. At the same time, research into using such materials in medicine, information storage, anti-counterfeiting technology, etc., is underway.
Currently, information on the long persistent luminescence materials with emission in the blue and green spectral range is widely available. In contrast, the number of publications on the afterglow in the red and near-infrared spectral range is considerably lower.
Within the framework of this research, Mg2SiO4: Mn2+; M3+ (M3+ = B3+; Al3+; Ga3+; In3+) materials were synthesised using solid state reaction synthesis. When excited with X-rays, the materials exhibited a broad Mn2+ PersL band with two maxima at approximately 625 nm and 730 nm. After cessation of irradiation, an afterglow of at least 6 hours could be observed.
The research focuses on the trap properties of the materials. It was concluded that at least three discrete trap levels with activation energies approximately between 0.4–1.6 eV were present in the samples. Additionally, co-doping with Al3+; Ga3+; In3+ ions improved PersL longevity of the Mg2SiO4: Mn2+ material.

Published: March 2024

Abstract
Sustainability and longevity of existing gas grid exploitation perspective are closely related to two fundamental issues: their ability to adopt to changing gas fuel production and supply landscape in the context of methane-based fuels, mostly, biomethane, and in the context of non-methane-based fuels, mostly, low carbon and green hydrogen. Renewable gases and their ever-growing presence in gas transmission and distribution systems open up a discussion about the necessity to revise and restructure the original – vertically integrated layout of the gas systems, where gas supply is only technically possible from the transmission system towards distribution one, and not vice versa. Development of numerous decentralized biomethane production facilities connected to the gas distribution system causes a necessity to ensure the possibility to pass biomethane surplus of a certain production area into the gas transmission grid, thus avoiding necessity to install biomethane storage capacities locally and granting other regions an opportunity to use said surplus in their gas consumption immediately. The article addresses biomethane production trends and actions taken towards the development of reverse flow gas stations in France – one of biggest biomethane producers in Europe to date, and opportunities and challenges, which this technique might face in smaller and less active renewable gas markets as the one of Latvia.

Published: March 2024

Abstract
Quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are small, agile four-rotor systems suitable for various applications, from surveillance to disaster support missions. Hence, achieving high-precision trajectory tracking is crucial for their successful deployment. This research focuses on modelling, parameter identification, and Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) control design for quadrotors, aiming to enhance their trajectory following capabilities. The quadrotor dynamics are a sixth degree-of-freedom (6DOF) equation of motion derived from Newton’s second law, encompassing moment of inertia, centre of gravity, weight, and thrust of propeller parameters. Experimental measurements are conducted to accurately determine these parameters, ensuring a realistic representation of the quadrotor system. Subsequently, a linearized model is constructed to provide a suitable plant for control system development. The LQR control design is intended to improve the trajectory tracking performance. This control strategy is validated through simulation and practical experiments, demonstrating its effectiveness in achieving high-precision trajectory following capabilites. The proposed approach demonstrates that LQR control effectively guides the quadrotor to resemble a predefined trajectory, experiencing only 3 % overshoot observed during the initial phase of flight.

Published: March 2024

Abstract
In countries that are big producers of olive oil such as Spain, Italy, or Greece, large amounts of olive husk remain as waste from processing olives and pose a serious environmental issue. One of the solutions could be to use this waste to partially replace sand in cement mortar to preserve the environment, decrease the consumption of cement, and improve economic benefits. This work presents our initial results which show the viability of using olive waste as an aggregate in cementitious mortars, indicating that the organic materials studied can be promising for this purpose.

Scaling the Momentum Coefficient for Active Flow Control at Various Operating Conditions
Authors: Reddy K. Venkateswara , Woszidlo Rene 
Published: March 2024

The momentum coefficient is one of the most commonly used parameters to quantify the aerodynamic performance and system output of active flow control (AFC). Estimating the momentum coefficient accurately through experiments is challenging. Several approaches exist to estimate the momentum coefficient in laboratory conditions. However, the question arises as to whether these models hold as ambient and supply conditions change during operation in flight. Therefore, computational fluidic dynamic (CFD) simulations were carried out on two exemplary AFC actuators (i.e., a fluidic oscillator and a steady jet nozzle) in a quiescent environment with supply pressure ratios ranging from 1.5 to 4; supply temperatures at 293, 550, and 800 K; and ambient altitude conditions at sea level and 10 km. When scaled with [Formula: see text], the mass flow for different conditions collapses as a function of the pressure ratio. Furthermore, the momentum coefficient collapses when scaled with [Formula: see text]. The existing models to calculate the momentum coefficient hold for changing ambient and supply conditions. Therefore, these models, in conjunction with scaling parameters, can be employed during the operation of an AFC system in flight with changing conditions in order to provide the desired momentum output. The paper discusses the details of the CFD results and the derivation of the scaling parameters.

Published: March 2024

Objectives
The study of microbes in the body of a person after death can be perhaps termed appropriately as Post-mortem Human Microbiology. Microbes can indicate the state of bacteremia at the time of death if the blood samples collected at autopsy are taken in an aseptic way from an appropriate sampling site. The aim of the study was to compare the sampling efficacy of the supraclavicular and infraclavicular approaches for both the left and right subclavian veins and determine the most effective approach among the four options.

Material and Methods
In this study, post-mortem blood samples were collected from both subclavian veins of 30 dead bodies to evaluate the effectiveness of approaches to subclavian veins. To achieve this, blood was collected from one side of the dead body through the supraclavicular approach and the other side through the infraclavicular approach, noting down the number of attempts which were required to successfully obtain at least 10 mL blood sample which is adequate for post-mortem microbiological examination.

Results
The study revealed that the supraclavicular approach is superior to the infraclavicular method. The left supraclavicular approach yielded maximum successful sample collection (100%) and also showed maximum successful single attempt sample collection (53%) compared to the other three approaches.

Conclusion
Following recommended aseptic procedures, using the procedure mentioned and obtaining blood samples from the left supraclavicular approach can improve the chances of getting a non-contaminated, adequate sample for Post-mortem Microbiology (PMM).
Prevalence of obstructive sleep apnoea risk and its association with anthropometric indices of cardiometabolic risks and cognition in young and middle-aged adults
Authors: Ravichandran Mohanaprabha , Rajasegaran Rajalakshmi , Govindaraj Vishnukanth 
Published: March 2024

Objectives:
Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), an often underdiagnosed and undertreated sleep-related breathing disorder, is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Hence, this study aimed to assess the prevalence of OSA risk and its association with anthropometric indices (AI) of cardiometabolic risks, domain-specific cognitive functions and quality of sleep in apparently healthy young and middle-aged adults.

Materials and Methods:
One hundred and eighty-nine apparently healthy individuals (123 males and 66 females) aged 19–45 years were included in this cross-sectional study. The participant’s current risk of OSA was assessed using the STOP-Bang questionnaire, and AI indicative of cardiometabolic risk (body mass index, waist-hip ratio [W/H ratio], waist-height ratio [WHtR], conicity index and a body shape index) was assessed using standard techniques. Domain-specific cognitive tests were performed to assess the cognitive status of the individual. Quality of sleep was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Epworth Sleepiness Scale. The correlation between the OSA risk score and the study parameters was assessed using the Pearson or Spearman correlation coefficient test.

Results:
The prevalence of high current risk of moderate to severe OSA was found to be 12.7%. Significant positive correlations were observed between OSA risk score and W/H, WHtR and sleep quality scores. While a significant positive correlation was observed between OSA risk score and executive functioning, significant negative correlations were observed with the other cognitive tests (short-term memory, verbal fluency, visuospatial memory and sustained attention and response speed).

Conclusion:
A high risk of moderate to severe OSA is associated with obesity, cognitive decline and poor sleep quality in apparently healthy young and middle-aged adults.

Published: March 2024

Objectives:
The objective of this study was to investigate the effectiveness and potential protective effects of various intervention strategies, such as choline and docosahexaenoic acid (Ch-DHA) supplementation, Clitoria ternatea root extract (CTR) supplements, human embryonic kidney stem cell conditioned media (HEK-CM) treatment and exposure to enriched environments (EEs), in mitigating neural cell degeneration in dorsal hippocampal subregions of naturally ageing mice brain.

Materials and Methods:
Twelve–fifteen-month-old CF1 male mice were subdivided (n = 6/group) into normal age-matched control, Ch-DHA supplemented, EE exposed, HEK-CM administered and CTR-supplemented groups. Neuro morphological alterations in the dorsal hippocampus were assessed using cresyl violet staining.

Results:
Higher neural cell degeneration was observed in the CA1–CA3 dorsal hippocampal subregions in normal ageing mice brains. Notably, interventions such as HEK-CM administration, Ch-DHA supplementation, exposure to an EE and CTR supplementation significantly reduced degeneration, particularly in the CA3 and CA2 regions.

Conclusion:
Ch-DHA supplementation and HEK-CM treatment are observed to significantly reduce age-dependent degeneration of dorsal hippocampal CA3 and CA2 neurons in naturally ageing mice compared to EE exposure or CTR supplementation.
