Costs and benefits of reducing air pollutant emissions as a result of bringing coal and lignite-fired power plants into compliance with BAT LCP conclusions
Authors: Lewandowski Janusz , Melka Krzysztof , Dubel Anna , Kłeczek Maria 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
The analysis carried out regarding the costs of adapting to the best available technique (BAT) conclusions in relation to the benefits achieved (external costs) showed that these benefits significantly exceed the cost of investments necessary to meet the required levels of permissible best available technique-associated emission levels (BAT-AELs). In the case of sulfur dioxide, the ratio of costs incurred to benefits obtained is only 3%, for nitrogen oxides 7%, and for dust it is less than 1%. This is primarily due to a significant increase in external costs, published in 2021 by the EEA. Nevertheless, it should be remembered that a precise assessment of external costs should be based on the analyses of individual facilities, taking into account their local specificity.
The analysis showed that the most cost-effective way was to adapt the coal-fired power plant sector to the requirements related to reducing dust emissions. Significant benefits were achieved as a result of small investment outlays.

The Possible Impact of Urgenda and the Klimabeschluss on Climate Litigation on the Example of the Petition Pending Before the Hungarian Constitutional Court
Authors: Láncos Petra Lea 
Published: February 2024

Abstract
While there is scientific consensus on the causes and consequences of climate change, also reflected in international agreements and EU norms obliging states to reduce GHG emissions, domestic legislation has been slow or imperfect in implementing reduction duties. Although climate litigation is not a new phenomenon, a specific strand of climate litigation is now gaining impetus owing to the success garnered in Urgenda and the Klimabeschluss: litigation focusing on states’ omitting to lawfully regulate emission targets. This paper presents the context of novel climate litigation in the face of Russian aggression and the ensuing disincentives to promote ambitious reduction goals, proceeding to describe the arguments and findings in the two landmark cases and their effects on future climate litigation as seen in the example of the climate petition pending before the Hungarian Constitutional Court.

Exploring Nurse’s Perceptions of Integration of Mental Health Services in HIV/AIDS Treatment in Lesotho: A Qualitative Survey
Authors: Ramokanate Sello , Nyangu Isabel , Rathobei Libuseng Moureen 
Published: February 2024

Background: Mental disorders are highly prevalent among people living with HIV/AIDS compared with the general population. In sub-Saharan Africa, where Lesotho resides, there are high HIV/AIDS and mental disorder prevalence with significant treatment gaps. Nurses are the primary HIV/AIDS treatment providers in Lesotho but lack the skills and resources to implement mental health care integration, which the World Health Organisation recommends.
This study sought to explore and describe the perceptions of nurses regarding the integration of mental health services in HIV/AIDS treatment.
A qualitative, explorative, and descriptive research design was used to collect data from a sample of 10 nurses who were purposively selected. A total of six in-depth interviews and one focus group discussion were conducted. Permission to conduct the study was sought from the Ministry of Health (ID46-2022). Written informed consent was sought from the participants, who were allowed to ask questions and could withdraw from the study without any prejudice. Data were transcribed verbatim and analysed using thematic analysis. Some nurses described uncertainty about the relationship between mental health and HIV/AIDS, while others described antiretroviral treatment as a factor that influences a patient’s mental health. Intrinsic factors that influenced their ability to integrate the services were empathy and personal experiences. Extrinsic factors that influenced their ability were the high prevalence of mental health illness and the collaboration from village health workers. The lack of competency and other health service limitations hampered the integration of mental health services in HIV/AIDS management.
These findings necessitate the need for training and continuing professional development for nurses in the provision of mental health services to PLWHIV. Nursing curricula need to work towards the integration of mental health into HIV/AIDS treatment programs.

ABSTRACTAedes albopictus is a vector of several pathogens of significant public health concern. In this situation, gravid traps have become a common surveillance tool for Aedes spp., which commonly use hay infusions as an attractant. Diverse grass infusions have been assessed to enhance the attraction to this vector mosquito. However, these studies have focused on the oviposition effect, and the attraction potential to gravid Ae. albopictus females has not been evaluated yet. Here we report the attractiveness of infusions of 4 different botanical species (Cenchrus purpureus, Cyanodon dactylon, Megathyrus maximus, Pennisetum ciliare) as baits in sticky ovitraps and autocidal gravid ovitraps (AGOs) under laboratory, semifield, and field conditions. In the laboratory, Cynodon dactylon showed attractiveness, whereas in semifield conditions, both C. dactylon and Megathyrsus maximus were similarly attractive for gravid Ae. albopictus. None of the infusions conducted with AGOs were able to lure Ae. albopictus and other species of mosquitoes in a 14-wk field experiment. Our results demonstrate the feasibility of finding more attractive infusions for Ae. albopictus females to improve the efficacy of AGO traps, but further testing of infusions in AGOs in field settings is needed.
Clinical effect of phytosterol-enriched saw palmetto extract on urinary function in healthy middle-aged and older males: a double-blind, placebo-controlled randomized comparative study
Authors: Hisajima Tatsuya , Waki Hideaki , Suzuki Takuya , Izumi Takashi 
Published: February 2024

Background: Saw palmetto extract (SPE) is one of the most widely used supplements for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) due to its pharmacological effects. β-sitosterol-enriched saw palmetto oil (VISPO™) contains more than 3% β-sitosterol and 85% total fatty acids and has been shown to improve symptoms in patients with BPH. Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) require primary preventive measures in countries with accelerated population aging, including Japan. VISPO™ is expected to be effective against the early symptoms of LUTS. However, the effect of VISPO™ on urinary function in healthy individuals has not been elucidated.
Objective: This clinical study evaluated the efficacy and tolerability of VISPO™ in the management of urinary complaints among healthy middle-aged and older men who did not require treatment.
Methods: We conducted a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that included 54 male participants who were assigned to consume VISPO™ or placebo (olive oil) capsules for 12 weeks. Biometric data, uroflowmetry results, and salivary hormone levels were assessed at weeks 1 and 12. Urinary function and quality of life were assessed at weeks 1, 4, 8, and 12 using the International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS), Overactive Bladder Symptom Score (OABSS), Core Lower Urinary Tract Symptom Score (CLSS), and WHOQOL-26.
Results: Two-way analysis of variance revealed that IPSS and OABSS were significantly lower in the VISPO™ group that in the placebo group. However, there were no significant differences in urine volume, urinary flow rate, or salivary hormone levels. In addition, no participants reported adverse effects (diarrhea, abdominal pain, etc.).
Conclusion: The results of the present study, which is the first randomized controlled trial of VISPO™ conducted among healthy participants, demonstrate the effectiveness of VISPO™ in the management of lower urinary tract complaints that do not require treatment.
Trial Registration: University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry (UMIN000046386).

Authors: Sachdeva Shivani , Mani Amit , Vikhe Shweta , Pandit Anjali , Jagtap Pranjali 
Published: February 2024

Collagen is a fibrillar protein that conforms the conjunctive and connective tissues in the human body, essentially skin, joints, and bones. It is one of the most abundant molecule in many of the living organisms due to its connective role in biological structure. It is a highly versatile material, extensively used in the medical, dental, and pharmacological fields. Collagen is capable of being prepared into cross-linked compacted solids or into lattice-like gels. The collagen family consists of at least 30 different genes, which produce 19 known types of collagen. All collagens contain greater or lesser stretches of triple helix. Some of the superior properties of collagen-based biomaterials, such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, mechanical properties, and cell activities, are pinpointed. These properties make collagen applicable in biomedicine, such as wound healing, tissue engineering, surface coating of medical devices, and skin supplementation. The purpose of this article is to review the available literature on collagen with special emphasis on its role in development and maintenance of oral tissues. Also it reviews the types of collagen, it’s structure, sources, role in maintaining periodontal tissues and uses in dentistry.

Published: February 2024

Introducción: La lactoperoxidasa (LPO) es una enzima que se encuentra dentro de los principales componentes de la leche, tiene una función antibacteriana y es un indicador muy utilizado para el tratamiento térmico de la leche. Objetivo: Por lo anterior el objetivo de este estudio fue determinar la presencia de LPO en cinco marcas de leche comerciales procesadas y una muestra de leche no procesada. Metodología: La metodología usada se basas en la interacción de la leche con el sistema guayacol al 1 % y peróxido de hidrógeno al 12% (H2O2) formando el complejo tetraguayacol que corresponde al desarrollo de una coloración salmón. También se determinó los sólidos totales (ST) por gravimetría dichos valores se correlacionaron con la presencia de LPO, con estos datos se estableció la calidad de la leche. Resultados y Discusión: Se obtuvo LPO en la leche cruda (LC) y en las muestras LGV, LSC y LAl no así en las muestras LA y LT. La determinación de ST mostró no tener una correlación con la LPO por lo que solo se establece esta última como indicador de calidad, esta cuando es negativa, indica que la leche se sometió a procesos de sobrecalentamiento (˃77.8°C) y destrucción de la enzima peroxidasa durante la pasteurización. Perdiendo con esto, características de su estado natural y, por lo tanto, el valor nutricional ha disminuido.

Keterangan merupakan elemen penting dalam sesuatu perbicaraan. Keterangan yang mematuhi kaedah-kaedah yang ditentukan oleh syarak menentukan sama ada sesuatu dakwaan atau tuntutan itu berjaya ataupun gagal. Pihak-pihak yang bertikai tidak boleh dengan sewenang-wenangnya mengemukakan sebarang bentuk keterangan dalam membuktikan dakwaan atau tuntutan atau penafian. Islam telah menggariskan kaedah-kaedah pembuktian yang diterima dan diamalkan seperti bayyinah, syahadah, Iqrar, qarinah, keterangan dokumen, keterangan pakar, qasamah, sumpah dan liâ€™an. Artikel ini akan mengkaji isu-isu yang berlaku yang berkaitan dengan kaedah pembuktian dalam kes hibah di mahkamah-mahkamah syariah di Malaysia. Tumpuan diberikan dalam kes hibah kerana ianya merupakan salah satu kes yang banyak dilaporkan dalam Jurnal Hukum. Metodologi yang digunakan adalah kajian kepustakaan yang memfokuskan kepada kes-kes hibah yang dilaporkan dalam Jurnal Hukum. Hasil kajian mendapati bahawa kaedah pembuktian melaui kesaksian dan qarinah selalu digunakan dalam membuktikan fakta-fakta berkaitan kesahihan hibah yang telah dilakukan bertahun-tahun lamanya dan juga membuktikan wujudnya qabd (penerimaan) hibah tersebut. Selain, keterangan dokumen, ikrar dan sumpah juga digunakan dalam membuktikan fakta-fakta berkaitan dengan kes hibah.
Royo Naranjo, L. Metodología de intervención en los espacios transversales de los cauces urbanos. El caso del Guadalmedina a su paso por Málaga
Authors: González Flores José Luis 
Published: February 2024

Metodología multidisciplinar utilizada en el caso práctico de una zona del centro histórico de la ciudad de Málaga. Particularmente un área que requiere una cuidadosa atención, puesto que físicamente representa la memoria del tiempo y el origen del asentamiento que se desdobla a partir en una conclusión formal de la interacción del río Guadalmedina y las actividades cotidianas reflejadas en las construcciones patrimoniales. Esta derivación presenta una evolución a lo largo del tiempo, no necesariamente provechosa, resultado de los cambios vertiginosos propios de la etapa Antropocena. Los desafíos no son ajenos a la mayoría de las ciudades históricas del mundo que han intentado sobrevivir preservando sus características esenciales.
En el proceso y cada una de las etapas hay cuestionamientos y dilemas de conservación, enfrentados a la supervivencia y rentabilidad de las construcciones. La participación ciudadana define los caminos de acción, refuta y la mayor parte de los casos nutre y conforma los resultados para la intervención. La metodología en todo momento prioriza entender las razones de lo que se percibe o no, los síntomas de una historia.
