Published: January 2024

Abstract
The contemporary scientific and technical community claims that the new development paradigm will be based on the priority of the universal laws of nature, the principles of ecological economics and the widespread use of digital transformation. The analysis of the sustainable development strategy Latvia 2030 and the presented changes in the value of indicators showed that, it is quite difficult to put together a common unified picture of Latvia’s movement towards sustainable development. The main goal of the article is to present a new approach to the assessment of sustainable development and to monitoring system, using a system’s power changes analysis method. In the context of a Latvian sustainable development strategy, the authors presented the results of the formalisation of new approach to the sustainable development monitoring, using an invariant coordinate system in units of power (energy flow) in compare with calculated data in monetary terms. Calculations and the initial interpretation of the results of Latvia as well as of the five EU countries from the Baltic Sea region – Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Estonia and Lithuania – were carried out for the period 1990.-2019. The presented indicators of sustainable development show that achieving the strategic goals of Latvia 2030 would be very difficult without any serious internal and external incentives. The results can provide a basis for creation of the development strategy both the country as a whole and each region separately.

Published: January 2024

Background Many medical devices in pediatric and newborn intensive care units can potentially expose healthcare workers (HCWs) and others to transmission of respiratory and other viruses and bacteria. Such fomites include ventilators, nebulizers, and monitoring equipment. Approach We report the general, novel approach we have taken to identify and mitigate these risks and to protect HCWs, visitors and patients from exposure while maintaining the optimal performance of such respiratory equipment. Findings The approach combined a high level of personal protective equipment (PPE), strict hand hygiene, air filtration and air conditioning and other relevant viral risk mitigation guidelines. This report describes the experiences from the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic to provide a reference framework that can be applied generally. The steps we took consisted of auditing our equipment and processes to identify risk through sources of potentially contaminated gas that may contain aerosolized virus, seeking advice and liaising with suppliers/manufacturers, devising mitigation strategies using indirect and direct approaches (largely filtering), performing tests on equipment to verify proper function and the absence of negative impacts and the development and implementation of relevant procedures and practices. We had a multidisciplinary team to guide the process. We monitored daily for hospital-acquired infections among staff caring for SARS-CoV-2 patients. Conclusion Our approach was successful as we have continued to offer optimal intensive care to our patients, and we did not find any healthcare worker who was infected through the course of caring for patients at the bedside. The lessons learnt will be of benefit to future local outbreaks or pandemics.

<table width="614" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tbody><tr><td valign="top" width="409"><p>Social solidarity among online motorcycle taxi drivers is the main goal in an online motorcycle taxi driver community. This can be seen in a community of online motorcycle taxi drivers when conducting associations. However, the association has faded along with the spread of the COVID-19 virus in Indonesia. This makes the community association of online ojek drivers unscheduled and unable to conduct associations between online motorcycle taxi drivers due to the implementation of community activity restrictions (PPKM). With conditions like this, the association of online motorcycle taxi drivers in a community in palangkaraya city is hampered. This study aims to find out how solidarity occurs between online motorcycle taxi drivers in Palangka Raya city after the Covid-19 pandemic when viewed from the point of view of social solidarity theory. This research uses qualitative-descriptive methods to describe each behavior of the activities of the object under study, so as to produce accurate information, also carried out with a sociological approach. The theory used is social solidarity as formulated by Emile Durkheim. All forms of data collection and processing are carried out by means of surveys as well as the author's participation in the activities of the online motorcycle taxi driver community in the city of Palangkaraya. The results of this study show that online motorcycle taxi drivers who in fact vary in ethnicity, religion and culture play an important role as actors in developing an attitude of social solidarity as a result of disaster fundraising or disaster sesame drivers, gatherings every two weeks on certain days, regular social gatherings that are carried out once a week on Saturdays.</p><p class="Normal1"> </p></td></tr></tbody></table>
The Power of Cuteness: Understanding Emotional Responses to Babies and Young Animals

<p><strong>Abstract </strong><br>
Cuteness elicits a wide range of emotional responses, including caregiving, playfulness, and even a desire to consume the cute entity. In this study, we explored four reactions to cuteness: caretaking, socializing, whimsical cuteness, and cute aggression. 105 female and male participants viewed images of young animals and babies (cute) and mature animals and adults (less cute) and reported their emotional responses. Results showed that cute images received higher ratings, evoking stronger emotions and a strong desire for caretaking, socializing, embracing, and playful interactions in both genders. </p>
<p>Moreover, our research highlights the predominant emotional response of caretaking and protection elicited by cute entities, which superseded other emotional reactions in terms of intensity. This emotion was shared by both male and female participants, with women exhibiting a slightly higher level of caregiving response compared to men. This study enhances our understanding of emotional responses to cuteness and provides a valuable quantitative perspective and methodological framework for future studies.</p>
Nuevas guerras, nuevos desafíos

Published: January 2024

Este trabajo expone la naturaleza de los conflictos contemporáneos y los desafíos que se derivan para la aplicación del derecho internacional humanitario. A partir de un análisis sobre el cambio en las formas de hacer la guerra en el mundo globalizado, este artículo explica algunos factores clave para entender cómo se han desarrollado los conflictos después de la Guerra Fría. La globalización política y económica ha traído consigo nuevas características en los métodos, medios y objetivos de la guerra, teniendo como punto central los factores de identidad. Después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial se plantó la necesidad de crear ciertas reglas y normas internacionales para la guerra. Por lo tanto, se desarrolló el derecho internacional humanitario como un mecanismo de equilibrio entre las exigencias militares de los Estados y las preocupaciones humanitarias derivadas de los conflictos.
El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar los desafíos que actualmente las nuevas guerras plantean al derecho internacional humanitario. El argumento final de esta reflexión es que las nuevas guerras han desafiado al derecho internacional humanitario, pues sus principios no han logrado contener la losa taques intencionados y deliberados contra la población civil. Por lo tanto, es necesario una actualización de estos principios, pero sobretodo, la correcta y uniforme aplicación del derecho que existe hasta la actualidad. La comunidad internacional, conformada por Estados, organizaciones internacionales gubernamentales y no gubernamentales tienen la oportunidad de demostrar su voluntad política para discutir sobre nuevos mecanismos de protección a los civiles y las opciones para reducir las afectaciones en medio de la guerra.

Sironjong Gadang Island is one of the islands in the Mandeh Tourism area in Pesisir Selatan Regency, West Sumatra, Indonesia. One of the ecosystems affected by tourism activities is coral reefs. Monitoring the coral reefs' condition and the abundance of coral fish in the Chaetdontidae family is carried out to find out this. This research uses survey research methods. The temperature measurement results obtained an average of 30.2oC, current speed measurements received an average of 0.12 m/s, salinity measurements obtained an average of 30 ppt, and brightness measurements show that the brightness of these waters is 9 m. Tide measurements in the waters of Sironjong Gadang Island, carried out on March 7–8, 2023, are double daily tides (semi diurnal tide). Then, the results from the coral reef cover of Sironjong Gadang Island waters obtained a percentage ranging from 2.34 - 12.83%, with an average rate of live coral reef cover of 5.96%, which is included in the poor category. Furthermore, the results at each research station in the waters of Sironjong Gadang Island showed that 54 coralfish individuals were found, with the number of coralfish at each depth ranging from 4 - 10 individuals. The most common types of coral fish are species. Acuminate had 18 individuals; the fewest types of coral fish found were Chaetodon trifasciatus and C. tristichous, each numbering two individuals. There is a solid relationship between live coral reef cover and the abundance of coral fish in the Chaetodontidae family, where live coral reef cover influences the plenty of coral fish by 61.11%, which means that the higher the percentage of live coral cover, the higher the value of coral fish abundance.

Published: January 2024

Soybean (Glycine max) is a one of the most valued crop in the world and an emerging crop in Nepal, with increasing cultivation in recent years in Nepal. The crop has gained popularity due to its high protein content and potential as a substitute for traditional protein sources, such as meat and dairy. Soybean is an important source of protein and oil and is widely cultivated for both food and industrial purposes. Marker-assisted screening (MAS) utilizing simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers has been used to pinpoint the genes that regulate the protein and oil content in soybeans. In this work, soybean germplasm were screened for the presence of particular markers associated with the genes regulating protein and oil using Five SSR markers (Satt556, Satt006, Satt212, Satt144 and Satt449) across eighty eight genotypes found in Nepal. The outcomes of this study showed promising results with presence of protein and oil genes on Nepalese genotypes indicating that SSR markers may be successfully utilized to pinpoint soybean genotypes with enhanced protein and oil content having potential increasing the quality and nutrition value.
Negotiating the Politics of Power: Tahmima Anam's <i>The Good Muslim</i> and Women's Role in War and Nation-building
Authors: Akhter Farzana 
Published: January 2024

In the grand narratives of the history of Bangladeshâ€™s birth, womenâ€™s wartime experiences and their contributions have been pushed to the periphery to institutionalise male monopoly on the annals of war. Even the voices of those who had been sexually violated have been silenced. Only a line or two can be found in the official stereotypical grand narrative of the Liberation War about their sacrifice. In this paper, analysing the personal narratives of Maya and Piya, the two central characters in Tahmima Anamâ€™s The Good Muslim (2011), I argue that although war mobilises women to be politically active, in the aftermath of war they are relegated to a subordinate status. Additionally, analysing Mayaâ€™s reversal of roles from an active participant to a reproductive agent, I reiterate that female and male participation in nation-building is regulated by socially constructed ideas of masculinity and femininity.

Published: January 2024

Facial affective computing has gained popularity and become a progressive research area, as it plays a key role in human-computer interaction. However, many researchers lack the right technique to carry out a reliable facial affective computing effectively. To address this issue, we presented a review of the state-of-the-art artificial intelligence techniques that are being used for facial affective computing. Three research questions were answered by studying and analysing related papers collected from some well-established scientific databases based on some exclusion and inclusion criteria. The result presented the common artificial intelligence approaches for face detection, face recognition and emotion detection. The paper finds out that the haar-cascade algorithm has outperformed all the algorithms that have been used for face detection, the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based algorithms have performed best in face recognition, and the neural network algorithm with multiple layers has the best performance in emotion detection. A limitation of this research is the access to some research papers, as some documents require a high subscription cost.
Practice implication: The paper provides a comprehensive and unbiased analysis of existing literature, identifying knowledge gaps and future research direction and supports evidence-based decision-making. We considered articles and conference papers from well-established databases. The method presents a novel scope for facial affective computing and provides decision support for researchers when selecting plans for facial affective computing.

IntroductionPopulations of natural enemies of insect pests are declining owing to agricultural intensification and indiscriminate use of pesticides, and this may be exacerbated in agricultural systems that clear all margin plants after the cropping season for other uses such as fodder. Retaining a diversity of non-crop flowering vegetation outside the cropping season may support more resilient and effective natural pest regulation.MethodsWe tested the potential for non-crop vegetation to support natural enemies in fields across two locations after harvesting the primary crops of lablab and maize.ResultsA total of 54 plant species were recorded across the sites in Kenya with 59% of them being annuals and 41% perennials. There was a significant seasonal variation in plant species richness (ANOVA: F1, 16 = 33. 45; P&lt; 0.0001) and diversity (ANOVA: F1, 16 = 7.20; P = 0.0511). While time since harvesting was a significant factor influencing the overall abundance of natural enemies (ANOVA: F2, 1,133 = 8.11; P&lt; 0.0001), they were generally higher in abundance in locations with margin plants or where a diversity of margin plants was observed.DiscussionThese findings demonstrate that flowering plants in agricultural systems offer refuge and alternative food for natural enemies and potentially other beneficial insects between cropping seasons. The conservation of natural enemies between crops may lead to more effective natural pest regulation early in the following crop, thus reducing reliance on insecticides application.
