Abstract
Background: Evaluating patient-reported facilitators and barriers to medication adherence allows us to better understand patients' perceptions, which continue to be the root cause of medication nonadherence.
Objective: This study aimed to assess patient-reported facilitators of and barriers to medication adherence.
Methods: The principles of the concurrent method of triangulation were used for chronic disease patients aged ≥ 18 years who were hospitalized in a South Indian tertiary care teaching hospital. This six-month study used a semi-structured, pre-validated questionnaire for interviewing; responses were recorded to identify the reported facilitators and barriers. The patients were counselled, and the data collected were statistically analyzed categorically.
Results: A total of 431 patients were enrolled, and the majority [223 (51.7%)] were non-adherent to the medication. The barriers included forgetfulness, attitudes, misbeliefs, lack of follow-up and refilling, lack of social support, financial constraints, lack of accessibility to healthcare, improper rapport with healthcare professionals, lack of disease knowledge, complex dosage regimens, and adverse effects. Facilitators included regular refills, good social support, good rapport with healthcare professionals, and good access to healthcare and routines. The older age group of 71-80 years [OR 3.18 (95% CI, 1.27–7.91)], annual income (INR) of 3-5 Lakhs [OR 6.75 (95% CI, 1.26–36.03)], two or more number of past medications [OR 2.85 (95% CI, 1.75–4.66)], number of current medications (during hospitalization) being 6-10 [OR 4.10 (95% CI, 1.07–15.71)], number of disease conditions more than 3 [OR 9.19 (95% CI, 2.02–41.64)] and management of discharge medications by others than self [OR 2.93 (95% CI, 1.10–7.77)] were found to be significant predisposing factors.
Conclusions: This study provides a framework for research on medication non-adherence in patients with chronic disease by describing a set of predictors along with facilitators and barriers to medication adherence identified through patient-reported measures.
MAGNEX and PILCCU in Finland: deployment of CO2 mineralisation in circular economies

Published: October 2023

Two ongoing projects in Finland, MAGNEX (Viable magnesium ecosystem: exploiting Mg from magnesium silicates with carbon capture and utilization) and PILCCU (Piloting of ÅA CCU) aim at using CO2 mineralisation technology for the overlapping purposes of large-scale CO2 emissions mitigation and bringing several valuable material streams into circular economies, including construction. Of central importance are magnesium-based materials, such as magnesium carbonate hydrate (MCH), besides (amorphous) silica and several metallic species. On top of revenues from these, CO2 emissions mitigation lowers the financial penalty from CO2 emission rights under for example the European ETS. The ÅA process routes are stepwise processes based on extraction of magnesium (and other species) from serpentinite-containing mining tailings from Finland, followed by precipitation of metallic species, carbonation using a CO2 containing gas-stream (no separate capture step needed) and recovery of solvent salt, respectively. Several separation steps involve (ion-selective) membrane electrodialysis. Besides ongoing mapping and characterisation of Finnish rock resources as tailings or other side-streams at metal and mineral mines in Finland, the projects address public acceptance, legislation and other non-technical issues related to large-scale roll-out of this type of CCU technology.For the use of the solids, magnesium-based cement binders and plaster-like recipes are investigated as well as applications for the (amorphous) silica and other residues, including the use of MCH for cyclic thermal energy storage (TES). Special focus is on accelerating the carbonation step and the final outcome of MCH production, considering pressure (including supercritical CO2 levels), and the role of recoverable catalysts and other additives. The work receives funding from the Academy of Finland (2022-2025) and from Business Finland plus industry partners (2022-2024), respectively.
Status on CCS in Denmark

Published: October 2023

The presentation “Status on CCS in Denmark” will focus on the recent progress made in Denmark on CCS and provide insight into new initiatives underway. The CCS technology enjoys ample political support in Denmark. Since 2020 a number of political agreements has been reached, introducing three subsidy funds for CCS as well as a range of legislative and regulatory changes that has enabled Denmark to work towards establishing a full-scale CCS value chain with the aim of reaching its climate targets.It follows from the Danish CCS strategy that Denmark also strives to become a future European hub for CO2 storage. In that context, Denmark has entered into collaboration agreements with Belgium, the Netherlands, Norway, and Germany to promote CCS as a climate mitigation tool. Additionally, in 2022, Denmark signed an agreement with Belgium for the cross-border transportation of CO2 with the purpose of geological storage beneath the seabed. This agreement was the first of its kind in an international context. This year has been a particularly important year for CCS in Denmark. Recent developments include the awarding of the first full-scale offshore exploration licenses for CO2 storage, the first injection of CO2 in the Danish part of the North Sea has been completed in a pilot project, and the energy company, Ørsted, has secured a state-sponsored contract to establish the country's first full-scale CCS project. This initiative, valued at approximately 1.1 billion EUR, plans to commence CO2 capture in 2025. Moreover, a new tender for the NECCS (“Negative Emissions CCS”) subsidy fund was published in late August. The aim of the NECCS-fund is to achieve 0.5 million tons of negative CO2 emissions per year, through BECCS and/or DACCS by granting financial support to one or more projects at any scale. Also in late August, a new political proposal was introduced, containing new CCS-initiatives. Finally, new tenders for exploration and storage licenses are planned in the future.

Abstract

An artificial neural network (ANN) was used to predict the removal efficiency of Cr(VI), Ni(II), and Cu(II) ions on riverbed sand containing illite/quartz/kaolinite/montmorillonite (IQKM) clay minerals. The effect of operational parameters such as initial metal ion concentration (10–100 mg/L), initial pH (2–10), adsorbent dosage (0.025–0.15 g/L), contact time (15–90 min), agitation speed (100–800 rpm), and temperature (303–323 K) is studied to optimize the conditions for greatest removal of metal ions. Employment of equilibrium isotherm models for the description of adsorption capacities for IQKM explored better efficiency of the Langmuir model for the best representation of experimental data with the highest adsorption capacity of 8.802, 7.5125, 6.608 mg/g for Cr(VI), Ni(II), and Cu(II) ions in the solution. The kinetics of the proposed adsorption processes efficiently followed pseudo-second-order and intraparticle diffusion kinetic models. .

Abstract

The subalpine shrub zone of the Qilian Mountains is an important water-retaining area, and it is crucial to clarify the processes of its hydrological cycle. Therefore, based on the stable isotope values of different water bodies in the subalpine shrub zone of the eastern Qilian Mountains from May to October 2019, the characteristics of δD and δ18O of different water bodies and their hydraulic relationships with each other were studied. The results showed that the stable isotope values of precipitation exhibited the largest fluctuations, while they were the most stable for groundwater. Plant transpiration was stronger than the evaporation of other water bodies. The stable isotope of precipitation was enriched in high temperature and low humidity environments. Isotopic values of plant and soil water were higher and more stable on the semi-sunny slope than on the semi-shady slope. According to the stable isotopes, there was a strong hydraulic relationship between the different water bodies in the study area, and precipitation was the ultimate source of all of them. Precipitation replenished soil water through infiltration. Part of the soil water was absorbed by plants, while the rest continued to infiltrate to replenish groundwater. Groundwater and precipitation replenished the river water.

Abstract:
Nature has always been a wonderful supply of therapeutic substances, providing us
with a range of medicinal plants that produce helpful phytochemicals. The native species of the
genus Echinacea, which are found in North America and are well-known among medicinal
plants, are members of the Asteraceae family. Though there are nine different species of echinacea, only three Echinacea angustifolia DC, Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench, and Echinacea
pallida (Nutt.)-are utilized as medicinal herbs with a variety of therapeutic uses. Contrary to other plant families, the Asteraceae family of plants is one of the most well-known and renowned,
and as a result, many of its members have been employed for therapeutic purposes. The availability of substances with a variety of medicinal characteristics is to blame for this. This review
has included the investigation of the morphological traits, ethnopharmacology, and diverse
pharmacological properties of the Echinacea genus. The chemistry of the genus is extensively
understood, and various chemical component groups-including alkamides and caffeic acid derivatives-are believed to be crucial for activity.

La sociedad requiere ciudadanos reflexivos y críticos que sepan resolver de forma efectiva los problemas actuales que plantean aspectos científico-tecnológicos. Para ello, es necesario que desde la educación se forme a los estudiantes en las competencias necesarias para que sepan actuar de forma responsable ante estos problemas. Así, la argumentación basada en pruebas es esencial, ya que permitirá tomar decisiones fundamentadas, constituyendo los debates una herramienta adecuada para fomentarla en el aula. Este trabajo plantea un debate sobre el problema socio-científico de la prohibición de plásticos de un solouso en la formación inicial del profesorado de secundaria. Los participantes actúan como oyentes del debate entre dos personas, una a favor y otra en contra de la prohibición, y deben tomar una decisión argumentada ante el problema antes y después del debate. Los resultados muestran cambios importantes en la decisión adoptada en los dos momentos, predominando antes del debate posturas a favor y ambas posiciones después, sustentadas en distintos tipos de pruebas, inicialmente ambientales, sociales y relativas a propiedades de materiales y, finalmente, sociales en muchos casos.

Authors: Medianyk I. 
Published: October 2023

The article examines the theoretical and legal issues of reintegration of temporarily occupied and annexed territories in national and international science. The state and prospects for solving problematic issues regarding the reintegration of temporarily occupied and annexed territories in the works of domestic and foreign authors are analyzed. The foundations of the state policy of reintegration of temporarily occupied and annexed territories in Ukraine are determined, proposals for its improvement are formulated.
The main domestic and foreign works on the reintegration of temporarily occupied and annexed territories in their relationship are studied. The reintegration of Ukraine’s temporarily occupied and annexed territories is defined as a set of successive actions determined and implemented by public authorities with the support of international organizations and partner countries, with the aim of returning the temporarily occupied and annexed territories to the legal system based on the constitutional principles of unified sovereignty and territorial integrity, humanitarian association of citizens living in these territories, restoration of their rights and freedoms.
Arguments are given in favor of the existence of a state policy of reintegration of temporarily occupied and annexed territories in Ukraine which needs constant improvement in accordance with the current political and legal situation. The importance of the institutional and administrative aspect of the reintegration of temporarily occupied and annexed territories is proved, which is expressed in the effective activity of public authorities, in particular the Ministry of Reintegration of Temporarily Occupied Territories. It is proposed to create a state program for the reintegration of temporarily occupied and annexed territories as a logical continuation of the corresponding state policy, including taking into account the positive experience of foreign countries, an approximate structure of such a program is provided.
