AbstractBeato, M, Youngs, A, and Costin, AJ. The analysis of physical performance during official competitions in professional English football: Do positions, game locations, and results influence players’ game demands?J Strength Cond Res38(5): e226–e234, 2024—This study aimed, first, to verify if physical parameters were different between players' positions during official matches in English professional football, and second, if the game location (H and A) or results (W, L, D) affected players' physical performance. Twenty-five male professional football players of the same team were included in this data analysis (age = 27 ± 9 years) during the 2022–23 season. Players were divided into positions: center backs, wide backs, center midfielders, attacking midfielders, and strikers. The external load parameters were distance covered, high-speed running (HSR), sprinting distance, accelerations, decelerations, and high metabolic load distance (HMLD, meters > 25.5 w·kg−1) that were monitored using global navigation satellite systems Apex (STATSports). Linear mixed models' analysis for positions reported a significant difference in total distance (p= 0.011), HSR (p< 0.001), sprinting distance (p< 0.001), accelerations (p= 0.003), decelerations (p= 0.002), and HMLD (p< 0.001). Centre backs showed the lowest physical performance in the metrics analyzed, whereas players in the other positions frequently displayed a similar physical performance. Regarding locations and results, differences were only found between locations for decelerations (p= 0.041) and between results for HMLD (p= 0.010). In conclusion, physical performance was influenced by players' positions, whereas game location or results seem to not affect physical performance during official competitions. Consequently, practitioners can physically prepare their players independently from the location of the match or of the possible game results, whereas specific positional training is requested to optimally prepare their players.
EN Improving the energy efficiency of refrigeration equipment with a direct sales function

Published: January 2024

The increased use of refrigerants with low global warming potential GWP over the past decade indicates that manufacturers are already making gradual replacements with refrigerants with reduced environmental impact. Thus, in addition to HFC gas phase-out requirements, most EU countries are pursuing a trend to reduce the energy consumption of refrigeration appliances. Such countries restrict the import of equipment that does not meet the energy efficiency requirements. This paper presents the ecodesign of refrigeration equipment in relation to the requirements of the sales market using the Regulation on Conformity Assessment Procedure. HVAC&R equipment contributes to GHG emissions in two ways: directly through refrigerant leakage or venting, and indirectly through electricity use, the latter accounting for up to two-thirds of GHG emissions. The paper compares the energy and environmental characteristics of refrigerants R404a and R290 in freezer M200V. The experimental results show that the highest COP va­lues in the system for R404a and R290 are 3.02 and 3.19, respectively. Possibilities of complete transition from F-gases to natural analogues with GWP ≈ 0 are shown. At application of R290 its advantages on energy efficiency are obvious - reduction of electric power consumption of freezing chests on 8,9 %, influence on environment R404A – GWP=3260, R290 – GWP=3. The calculation of energy efficiency class for freezing chest was made. To improve energy efficiency, a number of design modifications were made: the density of the thermal insulation material and the compressor were changed. The energy consumption of the modified version at the second climatic class was measured at 1.23 kW/24h, and the energy efficiency coefficient according to the calculation EEI =34.904, which corresponds to the energy efficiency class «C».

Background. Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), caused by SARS-CoV-2, presents new challenges to hematologists, highlighting the vulnerability of patients with hematological malignancies, in particular with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Identification of hospital mortality risk factors is necessary for subsequent stratification of patients into risk groups, which will allow further risk-based therapy.Aim. To develop a prognostic model and identify risk factors for hospital mortality in patients with DLBCL associated with COVID-19.Materials and methods. The interim retrospective study included 112 patients with an immunohistochemically confirmed diagnosis of DLBCL, coronavirus infection verified based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for SARS-CoV-2, and viral pneumonia associated with COVID-19. To determine the risk factors for hospital mortality, a multivariate (logistic regression) statistical analysis was performed. The study end point was a binary variable - the patient vital status (discharged alive or died).Results and conclusion. Of the 112 patients, 24 died. Due to the limited number of patients compared to the number of predictors and to avoid overfitting, a two-stage approach to constructing a predictive model was used. In univariate analysis, statistically significant during hospitalization were the hematological disease status (complete remission/partial remission, progression/relapse, de novo), positive PCR result, C-reactive protein level >6 mg/L, platelets <100 thousand/pL, hemoglobin <120 g/L, albumin <35 g/L, lactate dehydrogenase >248 U/L, D-dimer >500 ng/mL and the degree of lung tissue damage according to computed tomography >50 % (grade II and above), respiratory failure I degrees and higher. The final model was constructed by minimizing the Akaike information criterion. The final model included a positive PCR result, stage II respiratory failure, hematologic disease status (relapse/progression), and albumin level at the time of hospital admission.

Background. In March 2020, doctors faced the problem of severe COVID-19 coronavirus infection in patients with multiple myeloma. This required a review of issues related to the selection of patients, the development of new preventive and therapeutic tactics aimed at treating infectious and immunological complications in patients of this category, depending on the nature and status of the underlying disease and the timing of treatment.Aim. To assess the severity of multiple myeloma, the most common complications and features of the COVID-19 course in patients with multiple myeloma at different therapy stages (disease onset, remission, maintenance therapy, progression/refractory disease).Materials and methods. From March 2020 to May 2022, 89 patients diagnosed with multiple myeloma and coronavirus infection caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus were hospitalized at City Clinical Hospital No. 52 (Moscow). After assessing the severity, a decision was made on patient management, and if necessary, according to indications, the patient received specific antitumor therapy for multiple myeloma and treatment of coronavirus infection simultaneously.Results. Treatment for coronavirus infection was carried out in accordance with the clinical recommendations of the Russian Ministry of Health at that time. It included antiviral, anticoagulant therapy, transfusions of fresh frozen convalescent plasma with a high titer of antibodies, genetically engineered biological drugs and monoclonal antibodies; if necessary, patients received antibacterial and antifungal, hormonal therapy. Specific chemotherapy was also administered according to indications.Conclusion. Patients with multiple myeloma are at higher risk of severe COVID-19 infection. Today, the problem of developing adequate therapeutic tactics for managing patients with multiple myeloma and coronavirus infection still remains relevant. It is necessary to develop an optimal protocol for the management of such patients, including an assessment of prognostic factors, identification of clearly defined indications and contraindications for chemotherapy, and a description of supportive therapy.

Published: January 2024

The article analyzes the court role while approving a settlement agreement in a bankruptcy case. The implementation of the active component of this role makes the court a subject of proof and а subject of communication in the case. Recently, both the legislator and the law enforcer are inclined to limit the adversarial and dispositive principles in favor of the active role of the court in civil litigation. This trend is most pronounced in bankruptcy proceedings. Particular attention to bancruptcy cases dealt to their social significance, due to the multiplicity of diverse interests, that take place in bankruptcy procedure.The article discusses the controversial judicial practice that exists in the modern legal field. Author concludes that the settlement agreement in the bankruptcy case cannot be limited either strictly by the concept of “settlement agreement” or — “bankruptcy procedure”.
The 1886 Charleston, South Carolina, Earthquake: Intensities and Ground Motions
Authors: Hough Susan E. , Bilham Roger 
Published: January 2024

ABSTRACT
The 1 September 1886 Charleston, South Carolina, earthquake was one of the largest preinstrumental earthquakes in eastern North America for which extensive contemporaneous observations were documented. The distribution of shaking was mapped shortly after the earthquake, and reconsidered by several authors in the late twentieth century, but has not been reconsidered with a modern appreciation for issues associated with macroseismic data interpretation. Detailed contemporary accounts have also never been used to map the distribution of numerical shaking intensities in the near field. In this study we reconsider macroseismic data from far-field accounts as well as detailed accounts of damage in the near field, estimating modified Mercalli intensity values at 1297 locations including over 200 definite “not felt” reports that delineate the overall felt extent. We compare the results to the suite of ground-motion models for eastern North America selected by the National Seismic Hazard Model, using a recently proposed mainshock rupture model and an average site condition for the locations at which intensities are estimated. The comparison supports the moment magnitude estimate, 7.3, from a recently proposed rupture model (Bilham and Hough, 2023). A ShakeMap constrained by model predictions and estimated intensities further illustrates this consistency, which we show is insensitive to rupture model details. Given the uncertainty of calibration relations for magnitudes close to 7, the overall intensity distribution provides a good characterization of shaking but cannot improve the independent moment magnitude estimate. We also identify a previously unrecognized early large aftershock that occurred 9–10 min after the mainshock, for which we estimate magnitude ∼5.6.
Low-Frequency Blast Detection Using a Large-N Dark Fiber in Noisy Environments: Template Matching and Optimal Channel Selection

Abstract
Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS), deployed on dark telecom fiber, is well-positioned to play a significant role in seismic monitoring networks because of the combination of a large aperture, fine spatial resolution, broadband sensitivity, and the ubiquitous presence of unused telecommunication fibers in many areas of the world. In this study, we explore the feasibility of dark-fiber array deployed in a noisy environment for detecting small explosions. We test the effectiveness of template matching for the detection of low-frequency blasts generated by mining activities in the Imperial Valley, California. We first evaluate dark-fiber detection performance by analyzing the relationship between detection threshold (DT) and the number of DAS channels used. We find that although, as expected, increasing the number of channels yields higher detection significance and lowers DT, the gain in performance is far from linear, with local anomalies across the DAS cable associated with zones of higher noise. We focus on investigating the types of noise affecting template matching and practical approaches mitigating anthropogenic noise that lower detection performance. Using median absolute deviation, we identify two types of noise sources affecting detection performance. Next, we design a voting scheme that selects DAS channels contributing to lowering of the DT and ensures improvement in detection when adding sequential channels. Finally, we compare dark-fiber detection performance with nearby conventional seismometers and find that a single station can outperform up to ∼10 DAS channels. However, using the full aperture of our dark-fiber transect allows to obtain ∼10% lower DT and yields fewer false-positive detections than an array of four seismometers. Methodological solutions for noise assessment and channel selection allow us to fully benefit from the large aperture and dense sampling offered by dark fiber. The findings of this study are a step toward incorporating existing telecom fibers into novel explosion-monitoring workflows.
Can Geometrical Barrier Explain the Mw 7.8 Earthquake in Southern Türkiye on February 2023?

Published: January 2024

Abstract
Two large-magnitude earthquakes hit southern Türkiye on February 2023. The first, Mw 7.8 strike-slip earthquake generated a rupture of 300 km section along the ∼600 km long East Anatolian fault (EAF). Here, we present an analytical solution using perturbation theory for the static stress field near the EAF induced by the fault geometry and the tectonic loading before these earthquakes. By applying the Coulomb failure criterion, we show that a large stress barrier is developed around the segment that ruptured in the first earthquake. Considering stress field conditions that are associated with left-lateral strike-slip on the fault, we demonstrate how the barrier location is mostly determined by the fault geometry, while its magnitude is sensitive to the background stress value and direction. We further show that the elastic energy around the fault increases to maximum values near the barrier region and decreases away from it. Therefore, we suggest that the high magnitude and the associated long rupture of the earthquake were strongly influenced by the static stress heterogeneity generated by the fault geometry.
Local housing strategies in Poland as a tool to develop social and affordable housing: barriers for development
Authors: Cieśla Agnieszka 
Published: January 2024

Polish municipalities need to align with the trend of social housing development, expanding beyond public housing providers. The paper seeks to diagnose the barriers to developing well-defined housing strategies at the local level in Poland. Based on existing housing strategies of some Polish municipalities and the experience gained during work on a housing strategy for a medium-sized city in Poland, the following impediments were identified: a lack of robust demographic data, insufficient housing inventories, and a need for skilled experts and guidance for structured strategies. Given the impending EU investments in housing, local strategies gain significance, particularly in crisis-affected cities. The forthcoming financial aid for social housing amplifies the necessity for well-crafted housing strategies in Poland.

Abstrak
Jenis nutrien anorganik seperti nitrat (N), fosfat (P), dan silikat (Si) banyak diserap oleh fitoplankton. Ketiga jenis nutrien itu sangat penting untuk pertumbuhannya. Melalui proses fotosintesis, ketiga nutrien itu dirubah menjadi cadangan makanan dalam bentuk senyawa-senyawa organik seperti karbohidrat. Hasil proses fotosintesis digunakan organisme lainnya dalam tropik level untuk bertumbuh. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menganalisis distribusi nutrien anorganik jenis N (nitrat), P (fosfat), dan Si (silikat) untuk kehidupan fitoplankton. Pelaksanaan penelitian pada bulan Juni sampai Oktober 2021 pada tiga stasiun di perairan pesisir Tompotana, Kecamatan Kepulauan Tanakeke, Kabupaten Takalar, Sulawesi Selatan. Pada ketiga stasiun itu, dilakukan pengambilan sampel air untuk keperluan identifikasi fitoplankton dan pengukuran parameter fisika-kimia perairan. Kegiatan yang dilaksanakan di laboratorium seperti identifikasi fitoplankton, pengukuran nitrat, fosfat dan silikat. Berdasarkan analisis varians, konsentrasi nitrat dan fosfat adalah tidak signifikan berbeda (p > 0.05) antara stasiun, sebaliknya konsentrasi silikat justru berbeda secara signifikan (p < 0.05). Nutrien jenis N, P, dan Si masih dapat diserap dan digunakan oleh fitoplankton untuk bertumbuh walau tidak optimal. Sebanyak 4 kelas dan 24 jenis fitoplankton teridentifikasi. Empat kelas yang dimaksud yaitu Bacillariophyceae, Dinophyceae, Cyanophyceae, dan Coscinodiscophyceae. Dari hasil analisis korelasi Pearsons, hanya nitrat yang berpengaruh secara signifikan terhadap kelimpahan fitoplankton di perairan Tompotana (p<0.05).

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is thought to have beneficial effects on human health and well-being. GABA enrichment by lactic acid bacteria (LAB) could be used in the development of functional fermented foods. In this work, four GABA-producing strains each of Lactococcus lactis and Streptococcus thermophilus were isolated from cowʼs milk, and their phenotypic, technological, and safety profiles were determined. Genome analysis provided genetic support for the majority of the analyzed traits. The operon harboring the glutamate decarboxylase gene (gadB) was chromosomally encoded in all strains and showed the same gene content and gene order as that reported, respectively, for L. lactis and S. thermophilus. In the latter species, the operon was flanked (as in most strains of this species) by complete or truncated copies of insertion sequences (IS), suggesting recent acquisition by horizontal gene transfer. The genomes of three L. lactis and two S. thermophilus strains showed a gene encoding a caseinolytic proteinase (PrtP in L. lactis and PrtS in S. thermophilus). These strains grew in milk forming a coagulum of good appearance and an appealing acidic flavor and taste. They also produced GABA from monosodium glutamate in this medium. Two L. lactis strains were identified as belonging to the biovar. diacetylactis, utilized citrate from milk and produced significant amounts of acetoin. None of the strains showed any noticeable antibiotic resistance, nor did their genomes harbor transferable antibiotic resistance genes, genes involved in toxicity, virulence, or pathogenicity. Altogether these results suggest all eight strains may be considered candidates for use as starter or components of mixed LAB cultures for the manufacture of GABA-enriched fermented dairy products.
