Authors: Sarah Maroun Stephan  
Published: January 2025

Purpose: This study underscores the importance of integrating organizational practices, sectoral nuances, and individual abilities and capabilities to create supportive promotion for women leadership.
Design/methodology/approach: For this study, 432 Lebanese women in top managerial positions completed the survey. The research hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling (SEM)
Findings: The findings highlight the pivotal role of women leaders in conflict resolution, strategic orientation, risk-taking, and credibility, emphasizing their ability to navigate biases, redefines organizational norms, and drive equity. Sector-specific analysis reveals unique challenges, particularly in male-dominated industries such as construction.

In Italy, bovine tuberculosis (TB) control in the water buffalo population is mainly carried out using the tuberculin skin test (TST). The test measures the increase in skin thickness 72 hours (h) after the intradermal injection of mycobacterial purified protein derivatives (PPD). The TST can involve the single intradermal test with bovine PPD (PPDB), or the comparative test adding a second injection with avian tuberculin (PPDA), using the couple of PPDs reduces false positives caused by non-tuberculosis mycobacteria. This pilot study aimed to evaluate the potential use of PPDB, PPDA, along with 6 kDa early secretory antigenic target (ESAT-6), 10 kDa culture filtrate protein (CFP-10), and Early Secretory Proteins (ESP) in the TST, in healthy and naturally TB infected buffaloes. Twenty-one buffaloes, gamma-interferon (IFN-γ) test positive, from a TB-out-break herd and 11 buffaloes from a TB-free herd were selected. All subjects were also submitted to the IFN-γ test using the same antigens (Ag) as the TST to verify the cellular response in vitro and to exclude anaergic animals that did not respond to in vitro stimulation with the mitogen. The TST was performed according to the TB Italian National eradication program, and to Reg. EU 2020/689. Eight intradermal injection sites were used on each animal shoulder (4 on the right and 4 on the left side). Three concentrations of the ESAT6-CFP10 protein cocktail (10, 20 and 30 μg) and two of ESP (50 and 100 μg) were inoculated. PPDB and PPDA were always included in the TST, along with PBS as negative control. Skin reactions were measured with calipers before the test and every 24 h for 4 days. The TST was considered positive in animals with an increase in skin thickness between post and pre-dermal test readings of > 4 mm, doubtful if between 2 and 4 mm, negative <2 mm. Negative subjects also exhibited a skin response to PPDB at 24 and 48 h, but it became completely negative at 72 h, the prescribed reading time. In the positive buffaloes, the kinetics of skin responses showed that the strongest response was to PPDB at 24h, with some subjects becoming doubtful at 72 and 96 h. A peak response was observed at 48 hours to PPDA and to 20 μg of the ESAT6-CFP10 protein cocktail, followed by a decrease. The response to ESP-100 μg remained high at 24 and 48 h and then decreased, remaining positive at 72 h. ESP showed the best performance with higher reactivity in positive animals and no reactivity in negative animals at 72 h. Therefore, ESP could be an excellent candidate for further extensive studies in the buffalo species to improve TST Sensitivity and Specificity.

Published: January 2025

The motive of this paper is to explore how urban haats can function as inclusive spaces that foster social interaction and cultural exchange. It seeks to examine how these marketplaces contribute to preserving traditional crafts and supporting the livelihoods of artisans, especially in the context of growing globalization and urbanization. Haats are informal structures that serve as platforms not only for selling products but also for showcasing the skills of local artisans and craftspeople, often featuring unique offerings that are available only in specific locations. At the heart of these haats lies their sociocultural significance. These spaces act as the lifeblood of urban haats, creating vibrant environments where a multitude of activities and practices can thrive. They offer a dynamic setting for people from diverse ethnicities and age groups to come together, spend their leisure time, engage in creative or recreational pursuits, and foster social connections.

By serving as hubs of cultural expression and social engagement, urban haats play a crucial role in maintaining the cultural and social fabric of cities. This study focuses on understanding these multifaceted functions, their impact on communities, and their potential to adapt to the changing dynamics of urban life.

Authors: Sekhar Patro Pradeepta , Awasth Supriya , Jamuna K. V , Sharma Mukesh 
Published: January 2025

Introduction: Lead exposure continues to be a major public health issue, especially for vulnerable populations, including children and low-income communities. This has led to policy interventions, but the impact on reducing lead exposure is under scrutiny. The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of policy measures in reducing lead exposure among susceptible populations. Methods: We undertook a systematic review of the literature to identify studies that assessed the effectiveness of policy interventions to reduce lead exposure. The search included peer-reviewed articles from 2000 to 2020, and studies were included if they (1) measured changes in lead exposure levels or (2) were a policy intervention targeted at a vulnerable population. Quality assessments of the studies were conducted using predefined criteria with data being synthesized through narrative.Results: Out of the twenty studies that met the inclusion criteria, most focused on lead paint abatement, lead service line replacement, or lead-safe renovation practices. These results point toward a substantial decrease in lead exposure following the introduction of policy interventions that can range as high as a 73% reduction in blood lead levels in children across multiple studies. Moreover, lead-exposure prevention policies implementing education and awareness programs showed favorable impacts by increasing knowledge among parents and encouraging the practice of safer behaviors to lower lead exposure.Conclusions: These findings highlight the potential for policy interventions to significantly reduce lead exposure in susceptible populations. These results also stress the importance of regular assessment and refinement of these policies to guarantee continuing success that reduces lead exposure throughout the years. Further research should evaluate their cost-effectiveness and barriers to implementation and effectiveness.

Authors: Traber Bruno , Jung Heiko , Schaller Raphael 
Published: January 2025

This study presents the development and characterization of novel hybrid non-isocyanate polyurethanes (NIPUs) for structural adhesive applications. A one-pot synthesis method at room temperature was developed, combining polyfunctional cyclic carbonates, diethylenetriamine, and epoxy. Kinetic investigations revealed significant differences between bi- and tricyclic carbonates, with tricyclic variants demonstrating superior curing kinetics. The hybrid NIPUs exhibited remarkable lap-shear strengths of 14–16 MPa on untreated aluminum and planed beech wood after 12 hours of room-temperature curing. The absence of isocyanates offers health and safety advantages in various applications. The versatility of hybrid NIPUs was demonstrated through their broad adhesion spectrum and adaptable mechanical properties, positioning them as promising candidates for diverse industrial applications, including battery component encapsulation and multi-material laminates. While challenges remain, particularly in the availability of higher-functional cyclic carbonates, this research opens new avenues for high-performance adhesive systems.

Published: January 2025

Parasitic infections in human populations vary depending on geographical region. Periodic epidemiological study of intestinal parasites informs on shifting infection rates. Soil transmitted helminths (STH) are global parasites that thrive in soil lacking proper sanitation, including contamination by human or animal feces. Prevalence studies of STH in children in East Texas have not been conducted for over 90 years. The goal of this study was to determine current prevalence rates of parasitic infection among children of East Texas. This was a Texas state government funded infectious disease surveillance study. Recruitment included completion of a short questionnaire and distribution of a stool sample kit to caregivers of children, with instructions to return for testing. Recruitment involved a convenience sampling method at health clinics in Cherokee, Gregg, and Smith counties. Of the 481 caregivers recruited, 221 (46%) provided their child’s stool sample for testing of parasites. No STH parasites were found. However, we identified 20 children with parasitic protozoa and 1 with a multi-cellular intestinal worms (9.5% overall prevalence). Of the protozoa infections, nearly half (4.1%, n = 9) were infected with Blastocystis hominis. B. hominis infection was associated with the age of the child infected and the number of children in the household. STH in East Texas has declined over the decades, likely due to sanitation standards and cultural shifts towards sustained sanitation efforts. B. hominis may be emerging to fill this gap.

Exploring the Natural Ventilation System of Biomimetic Solar-Powered African Termite Mounds Using Computer Simulated Models for Varied Building Configurations
Authors: Juanga Jean Marie Villamor , Jumawan Hazel U. 
Published: January 2025

With the drastic increase in energy consumption and CO2 emissions in recent decades, there is an urgent need for more efficient buildings. To aid in these efforts, this research explored a biomimetic approach to building ventilation by analyzing the natural ventilation system in solar-powered African termite mounds (ATM) using nine building configurations with the aid of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software. Eight different building orientations were simulated, each with two wall opening percentages, and two building depths, and applied to both midrise and high-rise structures. Results show that operative temperatures of the ATM ventilation systems were significantly lower compared to the conventional models by seven degrees. Additionally, there is a consistent result of lower wind velocities for the ATM ventilation system in all types of building footprints tested. The bio-mimetic approach with the ATM-inspired ventilation system provides a practical blueprint for an energy efficient future in building ventilation system design.

Aportes para una mirada sensible de la migración
Authors: Sánchez Borja Eufemia 
Published: January 2025

Este ensayo reflexiona sobre la construcción de los principios de igualdad y no discriminación, desde la fotografía. Propone un vínculo entre arte y derechos humanos, y analiza cómo la imagen es un soporte que aporta a la construcción de conceptos y prejuicios sobre la movilidad humana. A partir de nociones de estética, política y fotografía propuestas por autores como Jaques Rancière y Susan Sontag, se presenta una imagen con la que en el mundo contemporáneo inauguró un álbum fotográfico sobre la migración y sus condiciones. Desde allí se miran otras fotografías que entran en debate con los principios y derechos de las personas en movilidad reconocidos en la Constitución del Ecuador. El texto busca propiciar un diálogo reflexivo que se acerque a la obra fotográfica y a su mirada sobre los procesos migratorios actuales, la construcción de imaginarios colectivos y la construcción de política pública.

Southern California is a special case scenario for any energy management study, given its sunny climate, sprawling urban landscapes, and economic strength. This research project focuses on how artificial intelligence can be applied in energy management by showing its potential toward optimum energy consumption and maximizing sustainability within Southern California. The dataset used for this study was accessed from the Kaggle website. The dataset encompassed various energy consumptions, and the data were collected across different building structures in Southern California between January 2018 and January 2024. These datasets included hourly records of electricity consumption for residential and commercial buildings and industrial buildings. Furthermore, it also provided a record of environmental and operating metrics. This dataset is useful to researchers and practitioners who work on forecasting electricity consumption, energy management, sustainability, and developing AI-based optimization models. To depict an insight into which variable affects strongly within the patterns of energy consumption, machine learning techniques used were logistic regression, Random Forest, and XG-Boost while considering a power outage data set. This study gives evidence that the AI-based models significantly enhance the forecast's accuracy and further allow integration of renewable energy resources, which in turn yield benefits through reduced operational costs and reduction of GHG emissions. The discussion has shown how such development implications could be translated into supportive policy frameworks of advanced studies in the future to electric vehicle charging and even energy storage solutions. Generally, this research underlines the crucial role of AI in changing energy management practices towards sustainable energy use.

Published: December 2023

ImportanceUndergraduate medical education increasingly relies on asynchronous, virtual learning; and medical educators have observed students engaging in self-directed learning outside of their institutional curriculum using widely available third-party resources. If medical educators better understand how students are learning, they may uncover novel opportunities to improve preclerkship education.ObjectiveTo explore how and why preclerkship medical students use third-party learning resources.Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis qualitative study recruited second-year medical students from 7 public and private allopathic US medical schools and conducted 7 virtual focus groups (1 per institution) from September 2022 to January 2023, exploring how and why students use third-party resources. Data were iteratively analyzed in parallel with focus groups using constructivist grounded theory methodology. Data analysis was performed from October 2022 to February 2023.ResultsFifty-eight second-year US medical students who had used a third-party resource at least once participated; 36 (61%) identified as women; 13 (23%) identified as Asian, 6 (11%) as Black, 30 (53%) as White, 6 (11%) as multiracial, and 4 (7%) as other; 6 (10%) identified as Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin, and 52 (90%) identified as non–Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin; 48 (83%) were aged 23 to 25 years. Participants described engaging in a cyclical process of deciding whether and how to use third-party resources. Four broad themes were identified: (1) hearing about resources, (2) selecting resources, (3) using resources, and (4) tensions and possible solutions. Participants largely heard about third-party resources from peers and turned to resources out of dissatisfaction with some aspect of their medical school curriculum. Students used resources in various ways that were user-dependent and context-dependent. Participants endorsed multiple benefits over their in-house curricula, particularly efficiency, clarity, and concision. Tensions included navigating resource drawbacks and the perception of an antagonistic relationship between medical schools and third-party resources. Participants suggested that medical schools examine the resources, recommend specific ones, integrate them into the curriculum, and subsidize their cost.Conclusions and RelevanceIn this qualitative study of preclerkship medical student use of third-party resources, participants perceived that the resources had numerous benefits for learning and suggested that medical schools should more formally acknowledge and integrate their use.
