Smoking and cardiovascular disease in patients with type 2 diabetes: a prospective observational study
Authors: af Geijerstam Peder , Janryd Fredrik , Nyström Fredrik H. 
Published: September 2023

Background
Cigarette smoking is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), medications such as antihypertensives and statins can reduce the increased cardiovascular risk. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of cigarette smoking on major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) and all-cause mortality in patients with T2D in a relatively well treated Swedish cohort.

Methods
Seven hundred and sixty-one patients with T2D aged 55–66 years were followed in the prospective observational CArdiovascular Risk factors in patients with DIabetes – a Prospective study in Primary care (CARDIPP) study. Baseline data included blood samples of markers of dysglycemia and inflammation, blood pressure as well as questionnaire responses regarding cigarette smoking. Participants were followed for incidence of MACE and all-cause mortality.

Results
Of the included 663 participants, the mean age was 60.6 (SD 3.1) years and 423 (63.8%) were men. Levels of C-reactive protein and vitamin D, as well as the proportion of participants treated with antihypertensives, acetylic salicylic acid, statins, and diabetes medications, were similar between smokers and nonsmokers. Median follow-up time was 11.9 (Q1–Q3 10.8–12.7) years. Cigarette smoking was associated with all-cause mortality [hazard ratio 2.24 (95% confidence interval, 95% CI 1.40–3.56), P < 0.001], but not MACE [hazard ratio 1.30 (95% CI 0.77–2.18), P = 0.328].

Conclusion
In patients with T2D, cigarette smoking was not associated with an increased risk of MACE. This raises the question of whether cardioprotective drugs in individuals with T2D to some degree mitigate the cardiovascular harm of smoking, even though they do not affect other dire consequences of smoking.

Published: September 2023

Abstract
Bruce llosis is a bacterial disease caused by various Brucella species, which infect primarily cattle, swine, goats, sheep, and dogs. The disease is typically transmitted to humans through direct contact with diseased animals, consumption of contaminated animal products, or inhalation of airborne pollutants. The majority of cases are caused by consuming unpasteurized goat or sheep milk or cheese. Based on observed Brucellosis occurrence data and ecogeographic variables, a MaxEnt algorithm was used to model the current and future distribution of Brucellosis in Qinghai Lake basin, P.R. China. Our model showed the Brucellosis current distribution and predicts suitable habitat shifts under future climate scenarios. In the new representatives; SSP 2.6 and SSP 4.5 for the year 2050s and 2070s, our model predicts an expansion in the current suitable areas. This indicates that under the possible climate changes in the future, the living space of Brucellosis in Qinghai Lake basin China will expand significantly. Ecogeographic variables that contributed significantly to the distribution of Brucellosis in Qinghai Lake basin are revealed by our model. The results of our study will promote comparisons with future research and provide a new perspective to inform decision-making in the field of public health in Qinghai province.

Abstract
Wireless networks have become essential in daily life, with a growing number of base stations and connected devices. However, increasing traffic and energy consumption pose challenges. This research proposes a Dual Step Hybrid Mechanism (DSHM) for energy optimization, incorporating MIMO technologies. The first step introduces an optimal algorithm that iteratively updates the probability distribution to achieve the best solution. The second step focuses on reducing energy consumption while maximizing energy efficiency, using specific techniques and strategies to minimize usage without compromising energy maximization. The proposed approach is evaluated using parameter settings, including block length, path loss, hardware impairments, and bandwidth. The research investigates the impact of hardware impairments on energy efficiency and analyzes performance under different SINR constraints. The study also examines energy efficiency in active user density and base station density, highlighting the superior energy efficiency achieved by MIMO configurations.
Methodology for Designing Cyber-Physical Multi-Operation Robot Systems Operating in the Conditions of Digital Robust Control
Authors: Guergov Sasho , Nikolova Nina G. 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The article proposes an original interdisciplinary approach to the design and construction of cyber-physical robot systems for mechanical processing. From a methodological aspect, the goal is the unification of modeling/synthesis and simulation software of a robot system for mechanical processing operating under the conditions of digital robust control. The system includes industrial robots; modules for implementing technological operations and transport systems. Adherence to the principle of modular construction, reconfiguration, and multi-operation ensures high flexibility and quick response when readjusting the system, and the optimization criteria – minimizing idle moves of the robot, leads to a reduction in the work cycle. The robust control, simultaneously in the instrumental, configurational, and system direction, is a counteraction in the mode of uncertainty, both to external signal disturbances and to possible constantly acting, system reparametrizing factors. This creates prerequisites for maintaining and implementing in online mode both the technological and geometric parameters of the details processed.
Influence of ABCB1 genetic polymorphisms on the antiemetic response to ondansetron-based medication for cisplatin-based chemotherapy in South Indian cancer patients in a tertiary care hospital

Published: September 2023

Abstract
Genetic variations in the receptor, metabolizing enzymes and transporters may explain a part of the variation in anti-emetic response to ondansetron among cancer patients. This study assesses the role of ABCB1 genetic polymorphisms in the anti-emetic efficacy of ondansetron-based medication for cisplatin-based chemotherapy in South Indian cancer patients.
The frequencies of common ABCB1 polymorphisms (rs1045642; C>T, rs1128503; C>T and rs2032582; G>T/A) were studied in 234 South Indian cancer patients receiving cisplatin-based chemotherapy. Comparison of nausea and vomiting with respect to number of episodes and severity by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events version 4.0 (CTCAEv4.0) was made across genotype groups of each polymorphism.

TT genotype carriers of all three polymorphisms had significantly lesser incidence of nausea and vomiting when compared to other genotypes of the respective polymorphisms during 2-24 hours and on days 2-5. Median VAS score for nausea and vomiting was also lower for TT genotype carriers at each time point except for nausea on days 2-5 (p=0.057) of C3435T. As per CTCAEv4.0, TT genotype carriers had less severe grade at each time point except for days 2-5 nausea (p=0.278) and vomiting (p=0.219) of C3435T and nausea on days 2-5 (p=0.068) of G2677T/A: TT genotype of ABCB1 genetic polymorphisms was associated with anti-emetic response to ondansetron-based medication in the population studied. Hence, genotyping for ABCB1 polymorphisms may be used as a tool to predict response to ondansetron.
Azilsartan ameliorates aluminium chloride induced Alzheimer’s disease like pathology
Authors: Mishra Sunita , Prusty Shakti Ketan , Sahu Pratap Kumar , Das Debajyoti 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease manifested with accumulation of neurotoxic proteins like beta-amyloid (Aβ) and hyperphosphorylated tau. Administration of angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) such as Telmisartan has demonstrated to generate significant memory improvement in AD. Azilsartan is an ARB with better bioavailability than Telmisartan. Hence, the present work evaluates the efficacy of Azilsartan against aluminium chloride (AlCl3) induced AD. In the work, albino rats were divided into five groups (n=6). Group I served as control and received saline (10 ml/kg). Group-II was treated with AlCl3 (100 mg/kg) for 42 days; Group-III and IV received Azilsartan (5 mg/kg) and Telmisartan (10 mg/kg) with AlCl3 daily for 42 days. Y-maze, elevated plus maze and radial arm maze were used to evaluate memory functions. This was followed by biochemical and histological studies, along-with determination of Aβ content and anti-oxidant status. AlCl3 was found to significantly (p <0.05) reduce cognition and increased concentration of Aβ in a hippocampus with elevated lipid peroxidation levels. It also significantly (p<0.05) decreased superoxide dismutase and increased malondialdehyde content. However, brain histology showed presence of neurofibrillary tangles, neuronal dead cells, and pyknotic cells compared to normal group. Still, Azilsartan and Telmisartan significantly (p<0.05) reversed cognitive dysfunction, improved antioxidant status and decreased Aβ production. Thus we conclude that Azilsartan protects AlCl3 induced AD-like pathology but, to a degree less than Telmisartan.
Capital Market Volatility During Crises: Oil Price Insights, VIX Index, and Gold Price Analysis
Authors: Hapau Razvan Gabriel 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The study aims to investigate capital market volatility during crises, exploring the relationships between three key financial indicators: oil prices, the VIX index, and gold prices, using monthly data covering the period from January 2013 to May 2023, based on the Granger causality approach and the impulse response function testing empirically the existence of the long-run relationship using Johansen multivariate approach and the estimation of the VAR/VECM model. By analysing their interdependencies, the research sheds light on how these indicators respond to economic turbulence. The study employs robust econometric methods to investigate causal relationships and predictive patterns, providing valuable insights for investors, policymakers, and analysts navigating uncertain financial landscapes. The findings reveal nuanced dynamics, such as the momentum in oil prices, the inverse relationship between oil prices and the VIX index, and a significant Granger causality relationship running from the VIX index to oil and gold prices. Furthermore, based on the impulse response patterns, the shock in the VIX index caused a notable oil price decrease in the second quarter after the shock, followed by oscillations. Gold prices exhibit a minor initial decline after the VIX shock, with no lasting effects.

Forget about voting, we are going on vacation! Examining the effect of school holidays on turnout
Authors: Jusko Jakub , Spáč Peter 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Media and politicians widely debate the relationship between holidays and political participation, but research in the field is underdeveloped. To test the impact of holidays on election turnout, we use a natural experimental setting in general elections in Slovakia with respect to the presence of holidays near election day. More specifically, while a part of the country had no holidays, other regions either experienced holidays for the first time or had the holiday in a repeated manner. The results from difference--in-differences and OLS regressions employed in the analysis show that experiencing a holiday near election day decreases electoral turnout. However, this negative effect of holidays on turnout is found to be significant only in territories that experienced holidays for the first time, while it is absent in territories that had holidays near elections repeatedly. This finding points to a potential habituation of the electorate and the holidays’ influence in the long run. The paper thus contributes to our understanding of how different time aspects of holidays affect electoral turnout.
Economic Parameters vs Voting Behaviour in the Polish Presidential Election in 2020: Poviat level analysis
Authors: Madej Małgorzata 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
Voting behaviour is affected by various factors and the effect varies in individual countries. Economic and geographic factors are among the major criteria taken into account in electorate segmentation. The present study analyses them in the case of the Polish presidential election in 2020, held under the circumstances of strong polarisation within the society and controversies surrounding the rule-of-law and democratic standards. The present study analyses voter turnout and results of the second round of the election, focusing on the subregional level of poviats (counties). The analysis considers macroeconomic factors (such as GDP per capita, unemployment rate, average remuneration), financial condition of the local government (measured by budgetary revenues) and urbanisation (comparing the biggest cities to other counties). The findings confirm correlation between the macroeconomic parameters of the subregion and voter turnout. In the case of voting results, the hypotheses concerning macroeconomic parameters and the status of the biggest cities are confirmed, but there’s no evidence of correlation of the average remuneration on the poviat level and support for the centre-liberal candidate.
Does the state of emergency create an opportunity for democratic erosion? Lessons from post-communist Central and Southeast Europe
Authors: Pavlović Dušan 
Published: September 2023

Abstract
The paper’s key puzzle is the variation in lockdown-related democratic decline in the region of Central and Southeast Europe given the incumbents’ ideological and regime (dis)similarity. Why did similar regimes not respond to the pandemic in the same manner by using the opportunity to grab more executive power and diminish the authority of other institutions? While some argue that a state of emergency provides an ideal opportunity for democratic decline due to reduced costs, others believe that autocratic regimes with a ‘pre-existing condition for autocracy’ are more vulnerable. To contribute to this discussion, I examine three examples from post-communist Central and Southeast Europe (Slovenia, Croatia and Serbia) during the pandemic-related state of emergency and lockdowns of 2020 and 2021. I consider several relevant factors, the most important of which is the prospect of winning the next election. To erode democracy, autocratic incumbents must feel insecure about the outcome of the next election to use the opportunity created by the state of emergency. If they are uncertain of victory, they may prefer to expand their executive powers during the state of emergency, thus undermining democracy.

Die Hardy-Stiftung (1905 bis 1962)
Authors: Krüger Oliver , Wilkens Katharina 
Published: September 2023

Mit seiner testamentarischen Verfügung aus dem Jahr 1901 vermachte der Indologe und Religionswissenschaftler Edmund Hardy (1852-1904) der Bayerischen Akademie der Wissenschaften einen hohen Betrag zur jährlichen Förderung und Auszeichnung indologischer Forschungen. In ihren aktiven Jahren von 1905 bis 1922 und von 1930 bis 1936 unterstützte die Hardy-Stiftung zahlreiche einzelne Forscher sowie eine Reihe internationaler Publikations-projekte. Die mit dem Ausbruch des Ersten Weltkrieges einhergehende Isolation deutscher Wissenschaft führte schließlich zu einer nationalen Provinzialisierung der Stiftung.
Der Artikel beleuchtet zunächst den Hintergrund der Stiftung, sodann die zentralen Personen der Stiftungskommission und zuletzt die Förderpraxis in ihren sich wandelnden ökonomischen und politischen Rahmenbedingungen.
