Simulations and Experiments using Satellite -retrieved Carbon Monoxide (CO) as a Speciated Proxy of smoke Aerosol Layered Optical Depth (AOD) for Radiative Transfer (RT) Model Studies: a poster for the AGU Fall Meeting 2023
Authors: Giordano M. E. , Wilcox E. M. , Pistone K. 
Published: January 2024

Understanding the vertical structure of atmospheric aerosol is important
for solar radiometric study across all spectra. This work pertains to
three relevant Southern Hemispheric regions of interest: Southeast
Atlantic (SEA), Amazonia (AMZ), and Southeast Pacific (SEP), where
seasonal biomass burning events produce smoke plumes of climatic
interest. We make use of our previously validated aerosol typology based
in AERONET retrieved optical properties, to identify each individual
measurement classified as biomass burning within the geographic region
of interest. The data is trimmed to select only those classifications
measured within the recognized fire-dominant season of each geographic
region. We employ The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather
Forecasts (ECMWF) reanalysis of Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring
Service (CAMS) Carbon Monoxide (CO) data to construct canonical
vertical CO profiles (characteristic “shape” curves) from records in
the historic burn season window, and within the geographic rectangular
boundaries of interest. These canonical CO curves then proxy for AOD
curves, constrained to be distributed vertically such that their
integrated sum matches to specific Bulk Columnar AOD (BCA) values as
determined in the corresponding AERONET record. The layer CO values are
normalized to fractional coefficients of the columnar CO total for each
canonical profile. These coefficients then are distributed as AOD layer
coefficients of the bulk columnar AOD; thus, preserving the canonical
profile shapes. This results in vertically resolved AOD profiles for
specific geo-region which can be fed into a Radiative Transfer model to
result in Total Layered Heating Rates (TLHR) and Aerosol
Layered Heating Rates (ALHR) expressed in K/day. We found for example:
smoke aerosol plumes in the SEA during the August to October season tend
to bi-modally develop between a characteristically higher plume or a
lower plume, separated by approximately 1 km vertically. Layer Heating
rates develop accordingly. We present methodology, developments, and
some cases of these studies specifically for the Southeast Atlantic
(SEA) region dominated by seasonal wildfire in Sub-Sahel Africa.

Objective
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on dental anesthesiologists has not been examined. This study aimed to determine how the COVID-19 pandemic affected Japanese dental anesthesiologists’ professional lives.

Methods
An online questionnaire related to the effects of COVID-19 on dental anesthesiologists’ professional lives was emailed to 351 board-certified dental anesthesiology specialists from the Japanese Dental Society of Anesthesiology. The endpoints of this study were changes in income and job satisfaction as a dental anesthesiologist from 2019 prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Results
A total of 141 dental anesthesiologists participated in the survey. Most respondents reported no change in income relative to 2019 for 2020 or 2021. Significantly more dental anesthesiologists reported income decreases relative to 2019 for 2020 (39%) vs 2021 (21.3%; P = .001). Very few dental anesthesiologists reported income increases relative to 2019 for 2020 (2.1%) vs 2021 (15.6%; P < .001). Job satisfaction as a dental anesthesiologist remained unchanged for all 3 years.

Conclusion
Even though many Japanese dental anesthesiologist specialists lost income because of COVID-19, they maintained their job satisfaction.

During 2018-2019 there were floods in the Bandar Lampung area. In general, the flood that occurs is only inundation with a maximum height of 2 meters. Therefore, every residential area or roadside must have water catchment areas such as a stretch of land in the form of planting or sidewalks that have pores such as paving blocks that can absorb rainwater into the ground. Making paving blocks in this study used cocoa shell waste because it was indicated that it could be processed into charcoal which contains a lot of carbon which can absorb water, with this composition absorbing water between eco-pavings blocks. The purpose of this research is to utilize cocoa shell waste to manufacture eco-paving blocks and to analyze the physical characteristics of cocoa shell eco-paving blocks. The effect of cocoa shell waste on Eco-Paving Blocks in this study is that the more cocoa shell waste fiber is used, the more porous cavities in the eco-paving block will be, and vice versa. The paving block of cocoa shell waste produced in this study has an average density test value of 1670.751 kg/m3 to 1929.642 kg/m3. The water absorption test obtained an average value of 11.18% - 19.82%. For the infiltration test, the largest value was obtained, namely in treatment 1, which was 0.355 mm/s. The visible test is obtained with the shape of the appropriate paving texture obtained on the P2 factor because the resulting texture is good and there are no gaps or defects when the paving has been printed. Meanwhile, in the compressive strength test, the average value decreased significantly from the P1 variation to the P4 variation. The highest value was in treatment P1 with a value of 0.0154 MPA, while the lowest value occurred in treatment P4 with a value of 0.0030 MPA. However, in this study there were several parameters that did not meet the criteria for quality standard paving D. Keywords: Eco-Paving Block, Cocoa Shell Waste

Постановка проблемы. Хроническая болезнь почек (ХБП) выступает одной из основных причин смертности и инвалидизации среди неинфекционных заболеваний в развитых стра-нах. В ряде случаев данное заболевание прогрессирует до терминальной стадии хрониче-ской почечной недостаточности (тХПН), что требует проведения заместительной почечной терапии (ЗПТ) в течение всей жизни больного. Одним из наиболее распространенных мето-дов ЗПТ является постоянный амбулаторный перитонеальный диализ (ПАПД), который все-гда сопровождается нежелательной потерей белка с диализатом. Потенциально повысить эффективность и безопасность процедуры возможно путем проведения регулярного контроля уровня общего белка в отработанном перитонеальном диализате.
Цель. Создание автоматизированной системы мониторинга потери белка с перитонеальным диализатом у больных тХПН, получающих лечение ПАПД, предназначенной для работы во внелабораторных условиях в рамках концепции «прикроватной диагностики» или point-of-care testing (POCT).
Результаты. Разработан доступный по стоимости, конструктивно несложный и удобный в использовании оптико-электронный химический сенсор на основе быстрой жидкостной хроматографии белков с УФ фотометрическим детектированием на длине волны 285 нм для экспресс-оценки уровня общего белка в перитонеальным диализате. Сенсор предполагает многократное использование; аналитическая процедура занимает не более 10–15 минут и потенциально может выполняться самими пациентами или младшим медицинским персона-лом без лабораторной подготовки. Создано программное обеспечение для калибровки сен-сора, автоматизированного измерения хроматограмм, идентификации и аппроксимации пи-ков, оценки концентрации белка по хроматограмме. Предварительные клинические испыта-ния выявили хорошее соответствие между данными, полученными с помощью сенсора, и результатами биохимического анализа: средняя относительная погрешность составила около 10%, что сопоставимо с погрешностью рутинных клинико-лабораторных методов.
Практическая значимость. Разработанная система может быть использованы в практиче-ском здравоохранении для мониторинга состоянии больных тХПН, получающих лечение ПАПД.

Labour share and income inequalities in the European Union, taking into account the level of development of economies
Authors: Šoltés Erik , Gawrycka Małgorzata , Szymczak Anna , Kuc-Czarnecka Marta 
Published: January 2024

Research background: The relationship between labour share and income inequality is a complex and multifaceted problem. Despite ongoing discussions among economists, there is still no consensus on the direction of the relationship between labour share and income inequality.
Purpose of the article: The article aims to assess the impact of labour share on income inequality, which is measured in three ways: the Gini index of gross income, the Gini index of market incomes, and the Gini index of household disposable income.
Methods: Dynamic panel data models were applied to estimate the relationship between Gini coefficients and socio-economic indicators. The study investigated 25 European Union countries over the 2011–2021 period.
Findings & value added: Despite the long convergence process of the EU economies, there is still great diversity in the labour share, social inequalities, and the interplay between these factors. The added value of this research is the indication of labour share impact on three Gini measures covering a diverse income spectrum (from labour and capital). Based on the research findings, hypothesis 1, claiming that the more developed the national economy, the lower the share of employment income, favouring capital gains, is confirmed. Hypothesis 2 (as the share of income from work increases, the Gini coefficient of gross incomes decreases) must be rejected. There is no significant relationship between labour share and the studied Gini measures in 'old' EU countries. In 'new' EU members, there is a reverse relationship than assumed in hypothesis 2. The growth of the Gini coefficient was influenced by the rise in labour share, which can be attributed to the diversity in economic structures.

Practice in function of change, a factor for the development and training of students
Authors: Alimerko Irena 
Published: January 2024

Abstract
Being organic and institutional, the connection between theory and teaching practice is at the same time a daily, concrete, useful connection, therefore, there is a wide theoretical, practical, and critical reflection. The professional practice is not only a simple exercise of the student, but it is also a deep test for the theoretical problems and their application in practice, it is an attempt to recognize the profession in the educational activity.
There is a horizontal and vertical connection between theoretical knowledge and their application in teaching practice. In this context, the objective of the internship is for the student to get to know the secret of the profession closely and face the teaching strategy before starting work. The experience so far has shown that pedagogical practice is a valuable experience not only as the best way to learn and verify knowledge, but also as an important element of promoting the pedagogical development and professional career of the student. On the other hand, the quality realization of the practice is closely related to the increase in teaching effectiveness during his preparation for the teaching profession. So, the practice does not only aim at exercises, but also at introducing the student to work tactics and teaching strategies.
Main objective of the paper is how does practice influence the development and training of students. The first argument is the functional connection of specific theoretical knowledge with concrete practical situations. The second one has to do with matching theoretical values with practical ones and the third argument with the verification of creative and professional skills. In this way, the relations between theory and practical activity should be understood as interconnected; while theory enables to express the intellectual processes, practice enables the concretization of the theory, so its generalizing force is its superiority. Theoretical knowledge without its proof in practice is empty, just as practical work without theoretical support is worthless.
Fish and Food-Fatale: Food-borne Trematode Opisthorchis viverrini and Cholangiocarcinoma
Authors: Tan S. , Machrumnizar M. 
Published: January 2024

Summary
Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) are a group of communicable diseases with a long history with human beings. NTDs are the proxy of poverty since they affect those in low-income and extreme-poverty populations, as those populations lack access to proper health care, clean water, sanitary conditions, and hygiene. NTDs create losses for a nation that come from the health and the economic sectors as well since the costs of diagnosis, prevention, and treatment strain the national purse strings. One of the 20 different forms of NTDs on the list is food-borne trematodes, comprises of Fasciola, Paragonimus, Clonorchis, and Opisthorchis. Currently, it is estimated that food-borne trematodes can cause a devastating effect on mortality and morbidity. All of them are zoonotic, as humans become infected by ingestion of a second intermediate host, such as freshwater snails, fish, or water vegetables. Opisthorchis viverrini, one of the food-borne trematodes that can be found mostly in South East Asia regions, especially in the Mekong basin, is regarded as a group 1 carcinogen leading to cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). This study aims to present the updated review of Opisthorchis viverrini and CCA.
Prevalence of gastrointestinal helminth parasites in rhesus macaques and local residents in the central mid-hills of Nepal
Authors: Tandan S. , Kshetri S. , Paudel S. , Dhakal P. , Kyes R. C. , Khanal L. 
Published: January 2024

Summary
Rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) are distributed across Nepal in close association with humans and with a high probability of sharing of soil-transmitted intestinal helminth parasites. This study was carried out to determine the prevalence, richness and risk factors of gastrointestinal (GI) helminth parasites among rhesus macaques and humans in the Daunne Forest area, a community managed forest in the central mid-hills of Nepal. A total of 190 fecal samples, including 120 samples from rhesus macaques residing around the Daunne Devi Temple and in the surrounding forest, and 70 from local people, were microscopically examined by direct wet mount, floatation and sedimentation methods. Seasonal and age-sex based variations in helminth parasite prevalence were analyzed. Among the rhesus macaques, the total parasite prevalence was 39.2 %. Strongyloides sp. accounted for the highest prevalence (19.17 %) followed by Ascaris sp. (13.33 %), hookworm (10.83 %) and Trichuris sp. (4.17 %). Among the humans, Ascaris lumbricoides (11.3 %) was the only parasite detected. The Sorenson’s coefficient of similarity of GI parasites between the macaques and local people at the generic level was 0.4. Mean parasite richness for the macaques was 1.21 ± 0.41 (SD) per infected sample. Parasite prevalence in the summer season (41.4 %) was higher than in the winter season (36 %). Adult macaques (41.67 %) had higher GI parasite prevalence than the young (30.77 %) and infants (27.27 %). Among the adult macaques, the prevalence rate was significantly higher (P=0.005) in females (52.46 %) than in males (22.86 %). Our results indicate that the temple rhesus macaques have a high prevalence of GI helminth parasites and could pose a potential zoonotic risk. As such, the need for routine monitoring and an effective management strategy is essential.

Published: January 2024

Summary
The objective was to identify the optimal stage of production to evaluate the resistance of Pelibuey ewes against gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN). Faecal egg count (FEC) was used to classify the ewes as resistant, sensible or intermediate against GIN. Forty-seven ewes were mating during 30 d. The gestation was verified by ultrasonography, and the breeding date was used to calculate the productive stages. Faeces were taken weekly to determine the FEC. Blood samples were taken to determine the packed cell volume (PCV), the peripheral eosinophils count (PEC), plasma protein concentration (PP), and Immunoglobulin A (IgA) against Haemonchus contortus. The body condition score (BCS) was recorded at each visit. Six moments during the study (early, mid and late gestation; early, mid and late lactation) were considered. The ewes were classified according to FEC (mean FEC ± three standard errors). The higher FEC occurred during all lactation stages than during early and mid-gestation stages (P<0.05). PCV, PP, and BCS during early gestation stage were higher than shown during the lactation stages (P<0.01). The PEC and IgA were higher during all lactation stages than early and mid-gestation stages (P<0.05). Concerning the type of birth, double births showed higher FEC than single birth (P<0.01). The highest values of accuracy (100 %) and concordance (Youden's J = 1.0) were found during early lactation. Therefore, it is concluded that the optimal stage of production to evaluate phenotypic resistance against GIN infections in Pelibuey ewes was during the early lactation.
Parasitic helminths of alien invasive anurans in Butuan City, Northeastern Mindanao, Philippines
Authors: Torralba CA. V. , Gamalinda E. F. , Estaño L. A. 
Published: January 2024

Summary
This study aimed to identify the helminth parasites of invasive anuran species in selected barangays in Butuan City, Philippines. In urbanized areas, invasive species dominate anuran diversity, and one of the primary threats they pose to native wildlife is the transmission of diseases and parasites. Out of the 91 collected individuals of invasive anuran species, Rhinella marina was the most abundant (88 %), followed by Hoplobatrachus rugulosus (12 %) and Kaloula pulchra (3 %). The study identified five species of parasites, with Spirometra sp. being the most prevalent (17.58 %), followed by Echinostoma sp. (16.5 %), Rhabdias bufonis (14.3 %), Cosmocerca sp. (6.6 %), and Strongyloides stercoralis (3.30 %), respectively. Spirometra sp. also had the highest intensity (7.67), followed by Cosmocerca sp. (5), Strongyloides stercoralis (3.33), Rhabdias bufonis (3.30), and Echinostoma sp. (2.73). This parasitological survey revealed that H. rugulosus had the highest prevalence and infection of parasites, and residential areas had the highest parasite prevalence among the habitat types. Adult hosts were found to harbor a higher prevalence and intensity, and male hosts had a higher prevalence. The results highlight the high risk of parasite transmission from anurans to other animals and emphasize the need for the community to control the population of invasive anuran species for the safety of native anurans and to prevent zoonotic transmission to other animals and humans.
DLT Options for CBDC1

Published: January 2024

Abstract
This paper provides an overview of the distributed ledger technology (DLT) options available to central banks for issuing central bank digital currency (CBDC). We discuss the main requirements that a DLT solution must fulfill and analyze the various structures for implementation offered by DLT — public, permissioned and private — and the implications that each has for the central bank and the existing financial system. While a CBDC built on an open, permissionless system would provide the full functionality offered by DLT, it is also far more disruptive to the existing financial system and consequently requires more new infrastructure on the part of the central bank.
