OBJECTIVE
Whether the day of the week on which the child presents affects timely diagnosis and risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in children with new-onset type 1 diabetes (T1D) is not known.

RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS
We used data of 30,717 children with new-onset T1D during the last 10 years from the German Prospective Diabetes Registry. We determined the odds ratios of T1D diagnosis and DKA on a weekday, public holiday, and school vacation.

RESULTS
Compared with workdays, the odds ratios of being diagnosed with T1D were lower on weekends (0.39 [95% CI, 0.38–0.41]), public holidays (0.57 [0.53–0.63]), and school vacations (0.83 [0.80–0.85]). The odds of DKA diagnosis were also reduced on weekends (0.55 [0.52–0.59]), public holidays (0.73 [0.63–0.84]), and school vacations (0.85 [0.80–0.90]). Results did not change during the coronavirus 2019 pandemic.

CONCLUSIONS
New-onset T1D and DKA in children are more often diagnosed during weekdays than weekends and holidays.

Does the Available Literature about Hyperhomocysteinemia Cause Confusion to Clinicians?
Authors: Mazokopakis Elias E. 
Published: December 2023

Background—Aim: Hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) (typically defined as serum total homocysteine/tHcy levels >15 μmol/L) has been associated with more than 100 diseases, syndromes, or outcomes. However, the current literature about the testing for or the treatment of HHcy causes confusion to clinicians. The aim of this study was to present and comment on the main causes of this confusion.
Discussion: The main causes of the above confusion are the important limitations of clinical trials related to the management of HHcy, the false impression that measurement of serum tHcy levels is not useful generally in clinical practice, the inability of modern diet (poor in folate and rich in methionine) to reduce the serum tHcy levels, and, finally, the consequent exclusion of identifying individuals with genetic causes of HHcy, as MTHFR C677T gene mutation.
Conclusion: The recommendations about the testing for or the treatment of HHcy must be clarified.
Міжетнічна ксенофобія і практики протидії: на прикладі країн Євросоюзу
Authors: Токар Петро 
Published: December 2023

Процес глобалізації, утворення конфліктів, посилення міграції та зростання кількості біженців сприяє залученню до міжкультурної комунікації величезних мас людей, що належать до різних географічних і культурних ареалів, соціальних, національних і конфесійних груп. Досвід останніх десятиліть продемонстрував неспроможність багатьох етнонаціональних концепцій, що грунтуються на неминучості стирання етнічних відмінностей і зниженні міжнаціональної напруженості під впливом глобалізації, індустріалізації й урбанізації. Навпаки, збільшення можливостей вільного волевиявлення народів і демократизація суспільства лише загострюють етнічну самосвідомість. Інтеграційним та асиміляційним процесам, тісно пов’язаним з глобалізацією, протистоїть дезінтеграційна сила етнічної і конфесійної нетерпимості, яка в умовах міграційних криз 2015-2016 і 2021 років та глобальної пандемії ще гостріше проявилася. Тому формування позитивних реалій сучасного демократичного суспільства можливе тільки на основі досягнення толерантних стосунків, передусім у посттоталітарних країнах. Для глибшого розуміння явища міжетнічної ксенофобії, причин і умов його проявів, вивчення досвіду профілактики цього глобального «захворювання» на планеті у статті здійснено аналіз цієї проблеми у 15 країнах і трьох великих регіонах, окреслено кращі практики запобігання поширенню міжетнічної ксенофобії в країнах Євросоюзу, Україні та Російській Федерації.

Published: December 2023

Abstract

Objective. Many conflicting results have been obtained in the study of leptin (LEP) and leptin receptor (LEPR) gene variants that are associated with the obesity and diabetes possibly due to differences in the study populations. The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in the metabolic hormones (leptin, ghrelin, adiponectin, resistin) levels in the blood of obese patients in relation to the GHRL (rs696217), LEP (rs7799039), LEPR (rs1137100, rs1137101, rs1805094) polymorphism in Ukrainian population.

Methods. The study involved 53 obesity cases and 48 non-obesity subjects (controls). The GHRL, LEP, and LEPR genes polymorphism (rs696217, rs7799039, rs1137100, rs1137101, rs1805094) was genotyped using a TaqMan real-time polymerase chain reaction method. Blood hormones (leptin, ghrelin, adiponectin, resistin) were determined with commercially available kits using a Multiskan FC analyzer.

Results. The study of the effect of genotypes of the GHRL (rs696217), LEP (rs7799039), and LEPR (rs1137100, rs1805094) polymorphisms on the level of metabolic hormones (leptin, ghrelin, adiponectin, resistin) in the blood of obese patients did not show reliably significant results. Thus, the presence of the LEPR genes (rs1137101) polymorphism in the Ukrainian population indicates an increased risk of the metabolic syndrome development regardless of the homozygous or heterozygous genotype (genotypes AA, AG, GG).

Conclusions. We established a significant effect of the presence of the A allele and G allele of the LEPR gene polymorphism (rs1137101) on the level of leptin, ghrelin, adiponectin, and resistin in the serum of patients diagnosed with the metabolic syndrome in the Ukrainian population.
Nematicidal Effect of Eupatorium odoratum Linn. Aqueous Extract on Burrowing Nematodes (Radopholus similis) and its Application to Control Toppling Disease on Cavendish Banana (Musa acuminata)
Authors: Nhung Tran Thi Phuong , Quoc Le Pham Tan 
Published: December 2023

Abstract

Radopholus similis (Cobb 1893) (Rhabditida, Pratylenchidae) is a common and destructive pest that causes significant yield losses in Cavendish bananas. The repeated use of synthetic pesticides to control this nematode has raised concerns about toxicity to users and the environment. An alternative approach to managing this harmful species involves the use of nontoxic plant-derived extracts that enhance protection against various biological constraints. In this study, aqueous extract from the leaves and stems of Eupatorium odoratum Linn. (EAEO) was used to control R. similis in banana roots under in vitro and on-plant conditions. Through direct contact and penetration experiments on roots, as well as on-plant trials, concentrations of 12500, 6250, 3120, 1560, and 780 mg DW·L−1 EAEO were used to evaluate nematode mortality rates, infection levels in root segments (in vitro experiment), root infection, root necrosis index, shoot and root fresh weight, and growth parameters such as stem length, diameter, leaf number, and leaf surface area (on-plant experiment). The results showed that the nematode mortality rate due to EAEO ranged from 35.3% to 90.1%, which is statistically significant compared to the mortality rate in the control treatment (16%). Significant nematode inhibition was observed in banana roots infected with R. similis and exposed to EAEO for 48 h. There were no statistically significant differences in root infection, root necrosis, and plant fresh weight between plants treated with fenamiphos and EAEO. Maximum effectiveness was observed at the 12500 mg DW·L−1 EAEO concentration. These findings provide valuable insights into the nematicidal metabolites of EAEO against R. similis. Thus, the potential of EAEO as a biocontrol agent against R. similis has been demonstrated. For future research, investigations will be extended to elucidate the mechanisms of action of the essential compounds in EAEO against nematodes, determine the optimal EAEO dosage for nematode control without harm to banana plants and the environment, assess the long-term effects of EAEO on banana plants and the environment, explore the ecological impact of EAEO use in agricultural ecosystems, study the effectiveness of EAEO on various plant species, and consider the development of commercial products or formulations based on EAEO.

Published: December 2023

Abstract
In this article, we will discuss the case of fair and inclusive schools that are considerate of the specific and unique needs of their pupils and offer quality education for all. We will highlight the most important indicators of inclusive education and focus on research that confirms the importance of the teachers’ willingness to establish good interpersonal relationships with their pupils. In the empirical section, we will introduce the results of our qualitative study. Based on interviews conducted with 20 mothers and 20 primary school pupils in two Slovene Roma settlements, we explored how pupils and their mothers perceive teachers’ attitudes towards Roma children. Our findings were very promising, for they showed that the interviewed pupils and their mothers had a positive experience with the teachers and their pedagogical work with Roma children. However, we should not ignore the few cases that pointed to ethnic discrimination towards Roma pupils.
Why do Croats Migrate to Austria? Motives for and Experiences of Migration since 2013
Authors: Balija Monika 
Published: December 2023

Abstract
The study aimed to determine the push and pull factors and the impact of the pandemic and the opening of the Austrian labour market for Croatian citizens in 2020 on the migration of Croatian citizens to Austria after Croatia entered the EU. The study was conducted using qualitative methodology, i.e., semi-structured interviews as the main research method. The results showed that, in addition to the influence of economic and personal factors on emigration from Croatia, social migrant networks stood out as a strong pull factor for respondents to migrate to Austria. Nevertheless, some respondents, regardless of family and friends in other countries, migrate to Austria for its better living and working conditions. The pandemic and the opening of the Austrian labour market in 2020 were at one time an obstacle to emigration for some respondents, and their experiences indicate that in the next few years the number of Croats who immigrate to Austria could increase, both due to delayed emigration from Croatia and the migration of Croats from Germany.

Authors: Soares Arianne de Freitas Barros , Carneiro Francisco Lucas de Lima , Pereira Juliana Rosa Leite Araújo , Pereira Micael Araújo , Pereria Neto Antonio Tavernard , Da Silva Júnior Heleno Bispo 
Published: December 2023

Purpose: To optimize a complex reactive system involving a consecutive first-order reaction in a Continuously Stirring Tank Reactor (CSTR) using the Direct Entropy Minimization (DEM) methodology, focusing on identifying operational conditions that minimize entropy generation.

Theoretical Framework: In chemical engineering, the efficient management process reactions in a CSTR is crucial. Traditionally, this leads to multiple operational points, which may not be optimal in terms of entropy generation. The DEM approach provides a novel perspective in determining the most efficient operational conditions by focusing on entropy production.

Method: The study employs the DEM methodology to analyze a CSTR system involved in consecutive first-order reactions. By conducting mass, enthalpy, and entropy balances, the process is optimized, leading to a model that effectively describes the system’s entropy production rate. This method focuses on establishing an optimal relationship between inlet and reaction temperatures to achieve the lowest possible entropy production.

Results and Conclusion: The application of DEM identified the global optimal operational condition, contrasting with the multiple conditions suggested by classical methods. This indicates a significant improvement in process performance and efficiency under minimum entropy production conditions.

Research Implications: This study emphasizes the importance of entropy management in chemical reaction engineering. The findings demonstrate that a systematic approach to minimizing entropy can lead to significant improvements in process efficiency and sustainability, suggesting a paradigm shift in how chemical processes are optimized.

Originality/Value: This research emphasizes the effectiveness of the DEM methodology in optimizing chemical reactions in a CSTR. The approach is innovative in reducing entropy generation, a key factor for sustainable and efficient chemical process operations.
