Grzech, wina i przebaczenie. Refleksje na podstawie stanowiska Kościoła Ewangelickiego w Niemczech (EKD)
Authors: Podzielny Janusz 
Published: January 2024

Czym jest grzech, wina i przebaczenie? Te kwestie zostały poruszone w opublikowanym w 2020 r. dokumencie Kościoła Ewangelickiego w Niemczech z perspektywy protestanckiej antropologii. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest podjęcie refleksji wokół najważniejszych idei tego dokumentu EKD, jakie wyznaczają jego poszczególne części: (1) grzech oraz fenomen grzeszenia; (2) zagubiony człowiek i odpowiedź Biblii; (3) miejsca doświadczenia winy, przebaczenia oraz pojednania. Refleksje te dotykają niewątpliwie podstawowego przesłania Reformacji, jakim jest usprawiedliwienie grzesznika. Wiele z tych przemyśleń może być bardzo pouczające w kontekście toczących się obecnie dyskusji na temat przebaczenia i pojednania między narodami, kwestii winy czy odpowiedzialności za nią, albowiem – jak trafnie zauważają autorzy analizowanego dokumentu – żadna dziedzina ludzkiego życia nie jest wolna od doświadczeń związanych z winą i grzechem. Przebaczenie zaś nie powoduje cofnięcia grzechu, ale umożliwia tak bardzo potrzebny dziś światu nowy początek.
What is sin, guilt and forgiveness? These questions are dealt with in statement of the Evangelical Church in Germany from the perspective of Protestant anthropology published in 2020. The aim of this paper is to reflect on the most important ideas of this EKD document, which are determined by its different parts: (1) Sin and the phenomenon of sinning; (2) The lost man and the Bible’s answer; (3) Places to experience guilt, forgiveness and reconciliation. These reflections certainly touch the fundamental message of the Reformation, which is the justification of the sinner. Many of these considerations can be very enlightening in the context of ongoing discussions about forgiveness and reconciliation between nations, the question of guilt and responsibility for it. As the authors of the analysed document aptly point out, no area of human life is free of experiences with guilt and sin. Forgiveness does not make sin undone, but it does make new beginning possible, that the world needs so much today.

Authors: Buccilli Barbara , Alan Albert , Baha’ Aljeradat , Shahzad Akmal , Almealawy Yasser , Chisvo Nathan Simbarashe , Ennabe Michelle , Weinand Martin 
Published: January 2024

Background:
This review delves into clinical strategies aimed at addressing the complexities of traumatic brain injury (TBI), specifically focusing on pharmaceutical interventions and stem cell therapies as potential avenues for enhancing TBI outcomes.

Methods:
A thorough review of clinical strategies for TBI management, encompassing pharmaceutical and nonpharmaceutical interventions, was performed. PubMed, MEDLINE and clinical trial databases were searched to identify relevant studies and clinical trials. Inclusion criteria consisted of studies involving pharmaceutical agents and other clinical approaches (i.e., stem cell therapies) targeting neuroinflammation, excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, and neurodegeneration in TBI. Data from clinical trials and ongoing research initiatives were analyzed to assess the current status and potential of these clinical approaches.

Results:
Many trials have been conducted to face the challenge that is TBI. These interventions are designed to target critical aspects of secondary brain injury, encompassing neuroinflammation, excitotoxicity, oxidative stress, and neurodegeneration. Despite this, there is no panacea or definitive remedy for this condition. Combining therapies in a patient-tailored approach seems to be our best chance to improve these patients’ outcomes, but systematic protocols are needed.

Conclusion:
Clinical strategies represent dynamic and continually evolving pathways in TBI management. This review provides an extensive overview of the existing landscape of clinical approaches and promising new studies and outlines their influence on patient outcomes. By highlighting challenges and presenting opportunities, it contributes to the ongoing mission to advance clinical care for individuals impacted by TBI.
Clinical significance of cerebrospinal fluid presepsin as adjunctive biomarker for postneurosurgical meningitis: A single-center prospective observational study
Authors: Takemoto Kiyoshi , Yamamoto Tomonori , Hashimoto Hiroyuki , Matsuyama Takeshi , Atagi Kazuaki 
Published: January 2024

Background:
Postneurosurgical meningitis (PNM) is a serious complication in neurocritical care patients, leading to clinical deterioration and worsening outcomes. Accurate diagnosis of PNM is often difficult due to the lack of definitive diagnostic criteria. This study investigates the potential utility of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) presepsin (PSP), blood PSP, and the CSF/blood PSP ratio as adjunctive biomarkers for the diagnosis of PNM.

Methods:
We conducted a single-center prospective observational study at Nara Prefecture General Medical Center in Nara, Japan, from April 2020 to March 2022. The postoperative neurosurgical patients with suspected PNM were included in the study and divided into PNM and non-PNM groups. We evaluated the sensitivity, specificity, area under curves (AUCs), positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) for the diagnosis of PNM with CSF PSP, blood PSP, and CSF/blood PSP ratio compared in the two groups.

Results:
We screened 241 consecutive patients with postoperative neurosurgery. Diagnosis of PNM was suspected in 27 patients, and the clinical diagnosis was confirmed in nine patients. The results of CSF PSP (cutoff: 736 pg/mL) for the diagnosis of PNM were sensitivity 89%, specificity 78%, PPV 67%, NPV 93%, AUC 0.81 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.60–1.00), blood PSP (cut-off: 264 pg/mL) was 56%, 78%, 56%, and 78%, 0.65 (95% CI, 0.42–0.88), and those of CSF/blood PSP ratio (cutoff: 3.45) was 89%, 67%, 57%, and 92%, 0.83 (95% CI, 0.65–1.00).

Conclusion:
Elevated CSF PSP and CSF/blood PSP ratio may be associated with PNM and could serve as valuable adjunctive biomarkers for improving diagnostic accuracy.
Inundation Prediction Model Based On Land Use in Krukut Watershed
Authors: Mubangaol Boris Karlop , Irawan Agustinus Purna , Pranoto Wati A. 
Published: January 2024

Purpose: Flooding is a problem in urban areas, particularly in the Krukut watershed. The causative factors are changes in land use, increased land conversion from dry land to watertight built-up land, and reduced water catchment areas. Various efforts to control inundation have been made, but the location of inundation has not been significantly reduced. As a result, a model is required to predict the occurrence of inundation so that it can be anticipated. This study will discuss a mathematical model for predicting inundation in the Krukut Watershed by considering rainfall, land use, and the drainage system.
Design/methodology/approach: Researchers gathered inundation data from trusted social media from 2010 to 2020, rainfall data from 2003 to 2018 from the Universitas Indonesia Campus station, and land use data from Citra Landsad in 2019. SPSS was used to analyze the data.
Findings: The analysis results show a solid positive correlation with the variable Building Open Area impermeable to inundation. According to the research findings, the inundation area is 0.17 km2. Compared to the EPA SWMM modeling results, the result is 0.21 km2 with a return period of 25 years, with an overall accuracy of 90,91% and a kappa accuracy of 67%. It means that the applied model produces an acceptable level of truth.

Research Topic: Evaluating the Venture Capital Growth, Impediments, and Prospects in Sub-Saharan Africa Nations
Authors: Kato Ahmed Idi 
Published: January 2024

Purpose: Nowadays, is it internationally acknowledged that access to venture capital (VC) investment is central for market internationalisation, entrepreneurship development, job creation and economic growth. Although VC’s reputation is universally accepted among scholars and in academic literature, there is still a knowledge gap in Africa. The study intended mainly to explore why developing nations in Africa have not been fruitful at stimulating early-venture capital investment compared to the developed nations. We reflect a range of probable reasons that impede both foreign and domestic VC investment, including difficulties faced by the entrepreneurs in obtaining funding from VC firms.
Design/methodology/approach: Using multiple regression analysis, we examined data from 61 VC companies’ resident in East and Southern Africa from 2015-2021, coupled with in-depth interviews with twelve VC investors.
Findings: The study revealed that several early-stage firms lack the capacity to manage large tickets of above US$5 million. Second, the results affirm that the absorptive capacity and VCs’ geographical preference all combined significantly influence the growth of the VC industry, and this problem is heightened by government’s limited support to creating supportive policies that enhance SMEs’ growth.
Practical implications: The study offers good insights by suggesting direct government intervention in the form of instituting tax incentives on capital gains to inspire more foreign investors.
