В связи с изменением климата существенно возросла актуальность оценки биомассы и углероддепонирующей способности лесов на континентальном и глобальном уровнях. Для этих целей формируются глобальные базы данных о биомассе и первичной продукции деревьев и древостоев как для основного, так и для нижнего яруса. Однако данные о биомассе растений подлесочных видов для лесов России представлены лишь в единичных работах. Целью наших исследований были получение фактических данных о структуре надземной биомассы подлесочных видов, произрастающих в условиях средней и южной тайги Урала, и разработка аллометрических моделей для фракций биомассы. В результате выполненных исследований впервые для лесов Урала получены фактические данные о биомассе и годичном приросте подлеска 9 видов в количестве 102 растений. Предложенные аллометрические модели для фракций надземной биомассы растений подлеска характеризуются высокими показателями адекватности исходным данным на уровне вероятности p < 0,001. Аллометрические модели биомассы и ее годичного прироста дают возможность оперативной оценки биомассы и чистой первичной продукции подлесочных видов на единице площади лесов Урала, а также для оценки вклада нижних ярусов в их углероддепонирующую способность.
Due to climate change, the relevance of assessing biomass and carbon depositing capacity of forests at the continental and global levels has signiﬁ cantly increased. For these purposes, global databases on biomass and primary production of trees and stands are being formed, both for the main canopy and for the underwood story. However, data on the biomass of underwood plants for Russian forests are presented only in seldom works. The purpose of our research was to obtain the empirical data on the structure of the aboveground biomass of underwood species growing in the conditions of the middle and southern taiga of the Urals, and to develop allometric models for biomass components. As a result of the performed studies, for the ﬁ rst time in the forests of the Urals, the empirical data on biomass and annual growth of underwood story in the amount of 102 plants of 9 species were obtained. The proposed allometric models for components of aboveground biomass of underwood plants are characterized by high indicators of adequacy of the initial data at the probability level p < 0.001. Allometric models of biomass and its annual increment make it possible to quickly assess the biomass and net primary production of underwood species per unit area of forests in the Urals, as well as to assess the contribution of the underwood story to their carbon depositing capacity. Keywords: underwood story, underwood plant species, aboveground biomass, annual biomass growth, biomass components, allometric model

Introducción: Las semillas de Moringa peregrina (Forssk.) Fiori tienen propiedades beneficiosas para la salud y potencial considerable como biocombustible. No obstante, el cultivo está limitado por la calidad variable de las semillas. Objetivo: Investigar el efecto de la posición de la semilla en la vaina y el tratamiento de lixiviación sobre la germinación y características vegetativas de las plántulas. Materiales y métodos: Las semillas se numeraron del 1 al 6 (la posición cercana a la parte unida al tallo fue la número 1). Para investigar el efecto de lixiviación en la germinación y las características vegetativas, las semillas se expusieron a agua corriente durante 0, 24 y 48 h. El experimento consistió en un diseño completamente aleatorizado con arreglo factorial. Resultados y discusión: La posición de la semilla tuvo efecto significativo (P ≤ 0.05) en las variables, excepto en el peso fresco de las raíces y número de hojas; la germinación fue mayor en las semillas de las posiciones medias de la vaina, que fueron también las más pesadas (0.73 g). La lixiviación durante 48 h aumentó la germinación al 88 %. Este tratamiento produjo el mayor número de hojas (16.82) y los valores más altos de diámetro del cuello (3.50 mm), peso seco de hojas (0.11 g), tallo (0.08 g) y raíz (0.50 g), y longitud de raíz (10.10 cm). La interacción de la posición y la lixiviación fue significativa. Conclusiones: El rendimiento general de la germinación y el crecimiento de las plántulas pueden mejorarse mediante la inmersión de semillas de la posición media de la vaina en agua corriente durante 48 h.

In the Shadow of Shoah

Published: May 2023

Abstract
This article discusses Stanisław Lem's early prose works, which were written shortly after the end of World War II. In light of the institutional state censorship of the time, the traumatic experience of the 1941 Lviv [then Lwów] pogrom and Lem's attempts at survival outside the Lviv ghetto, this article offers a broad historical, biographical, and political context for the interpretation of these early works, revealing political allusions and autobiographical motifs. This research takes the archival turn, which places the archive at the center of the study of power, memory, and politics. Careful study of Lem's biography reveals the violent interference of the directives of the oppressive state as well as its politics of memory, and allows the voice of the victims and the defeated to become audible.
Chaosmos

Published: May 2023

Abstract
In this article, I argue that in the years 1960‒1980—roughly from Solaris (1961), through His Master's Voice (1968), to Golem XIV (1981)—Stanisław Lem carried out an anthropological experiment in which his protagonists were confronted with unknowable phenomena. The fullest expression of this experiment is the novel Solaris, in which a new function of literature—the universalization of uncertainty—is unveiled. This feature links Lem's novel with the works of other Polish writers, such as Witold Gombrowicz, Tadeusz Różewicz, Andrzej Czycz, Teodor Parnicki, and Edward Stachura. Some of their works from the 1960s and 1970s can be considered representative of the post-avant-garde in Polish prose; these works question key social beliefs (especially regarding the efficacy of cognition, the adequacy of language, and the stability of the human subject), but instead of proposing a new order, their authors indicate the need for accepting that human existence is not grounded in a higher order.
An Odyssey without Homecoming
Authors: Gall Alfred 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Recent scholarship has drawn attention to the impact of war, occupation, and the Holocaust on Stanisław Lem's literary work. This article attempts to further explore this subject. Its aim is to show how Lem in Powrót z gwiazd [Return from the stars, 1961] depicts the return from space travel as analogous to coming home from war. This analogy is based on a complex interplay between the science fiction narrative on the one hand and references to the Homeric epic poem The Odyssey on the other. The article highlights some peculiarities of this intertextual fabric of Return from the Stars. From this point of view, the science fiction work forms, in Adorno's term, a “constellation” with the epic tale. In this constellation the science fiction narrative exposes in its transtextual interplay with the Greek tradition the deheroization of the hero as well as the ambiguities of a biopolitically organized society in the future. With the transtextual reassessment of the mythical narrative and the emerging literary representation of an odyssey without homecoming, Lem's novel exemplifies a fundamental dismantling of positivity. Seen from this angle, the science fiction novel can be situated in the context of postwar Polish literature which in its attempts to come to terms with the traumatic experiences of war and occupation challenges or even rejects a cultural heritage of traditions and values that have—in the wake of World War II—lost their immanent value.
Stanisław Lem
Authors: Majewski Paweł 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
This article draws attention to some seemingly insignificant details in Stanisław Lem's works that can be understood on a closer reading as traces of his youthful traumatic experience of World War II and the Holocaust. Lem rarely spoke directly about these experiences, but the few such statements he did make testify to the strong and deep trace that this experience left on him. This trace is most often manifested in the form of macabre scenes and motifs. The analysis of these scenes and an attempt at their interpretation is the main focus of this article.

The average lifespan of people suffering from HIV-AIDS is estimated to be 9 to 11 years, with Vitamin D deficiency as one of the most common phenomena among them. Anti-Retroviral Therapy (ART) could significantly enhance the quality of life of HIV-AIDS patients; however, it further decreases Vitamin D serum levels among them. Objectives: To evaluate the impact of vitamin D supplementation on immune function, viral load, and other health outcomes in HIV-positive individuals. Methods: This was a descriptive study conducted on a sample of 95 HIV-diagnosed patients aged 19 to 50 years in Punjab, Pakistan. Patients were selected from an AIDS control clinic and prescribed antiretroviral therapy. Baseline assessments were conducted using a structured evaluation questionnaire, and biochemical results were used to classify vitamin D deficiency. Results: The study presents information on PCR viral load counts in HIV patients, including minimum (50), and maximum (750,000) values, mean (32,475) with standard deviation (155,343), 5% sheared mean (28), and the 95% confidence interval (17,802 to 47,148) for the average. Results showed that HIV-positive patients taking vitamin D supplementation had a lower mean rank (50.07) compared to those not taking supplements (57.00), with a difference of 275.5 in the sum of ranks between the two groups. Inferential statistics suggested that vitamin D plays a significant role in improving the prognosis of HIV patients taking ART, with a significance value of 0.0032. Conclusion: The present study concludes that Vitamin D supplementation has a significant role in improving the life status of HIV patients.

Propranolol and Carvedilol are the currently used medications for main prophylaxis of variceal bleeding. Objective: To investigate the efficacy of carvedilol vs propranolol for prevention of variceal hemorrhage in liver cirrhosis patients. Methods: This prospective comparative study was carried out on 196 cirrhotic patients in the Gastroenterology Department of Lady Reading Hospital, Peshawar in collaboration with Pharmacology department of Khyber Medical University, Peshawar from July 2018 to June 2020. Patients with no prior history of primary variceal prophylaxis treatment and variceal bleeding were enrolled. All the patients were categorized into two groups: Group-I (Carvedilol) and Group-II (propanol). Frank hematemesis, melena, and endoscopic assessment was used for the evaluation of variceal bleeding. Results: Of the total 196 liver cirrhosis patients, Group-I and Group-II had 102 (52%) and 94 (48%) respectively. Ultrasonography found splenomegaly in 88% of cases and moderate to severe ascites in 42.6% of the patients investigated. The success rate of carvedilol and propanol group was 76% and 64.8% respectively. The side-effects and complication rate were significantly lower in Group-I than Group-II. The prevalence of variceal bleeding was 16.7% (n=17) and 11.7% (n=11) respectively. Conclusions: Carvedilol is an excellent treatment alternative for prevention of variceal bleeding than propranolol in terms of side-effects and complications rate.

One of the most prevalent conditions affecting the oral mucosa is recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS), which is characterized by uncomfortable ulcerations on the movable or non-keratinized oral mucosa. Objective: To compare mean platelet volume (MPV) in patients of recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) versus healthy control. Methods: This non-probability sampling case-control research included 56 RAS patients and 56 healthy controls. Patients who presented for dental treatment and have RAS in oral cavity were included. Patients with systemic inflammatory illnesses, autoimmune diseases like pemphigus, or infectious diseases like herpes who attended for dental treatment and exhibited RAS in the oral cavity were excluded. The healthy control group had no mouth ulcers or blood problems. A Student t-test compared MPV between cases and controls based on age, gender, and MPV. Results: The mean age of the participants was 29.35 ± 8.28 years, with 57 (50.89%) females and 55 (49.11%) males. The mean MPV in the RAS group (8.86 ± 0.33) was significantly higher (p < 0.001) than in the control group (6.95 ± 0.2). The univariable model coefficient of 1.91 (95% CI = 1.81-2.01, p < 0.001) indicates that the RAS group had a significantly higher MPV than the Control group. For gender, males had a lower MPV compared to females (β = -0.36), but it was not statistically significant (p = 0.056). Conclusions: RAS patients have higher platelet activity indicated by higher mean platelet volume (MPV) than healthy controls.

Objective: To assess the combine effect of breast feeding, Rota virus vaccine and Pneumococcal vaccine on frequency of Diarrhea and Pneumonia in children less than 5 years of age. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study conducted at Department of Pediatrics at Darul sehat hospital, Karachi. Participants were selected by convenience sampling and interview-based questionnaire was used. 196 Participants were interviewed which included mothers of infant and children from 6 months to 5 years of age, who received complete or partial vaccination according to Expanded program of Immunization (EPI) schedule with information on history of diarrhea and pneumonia. Infant and children with bloody diarrhea were excluded. Results: Among the 196 participants, 152 (77.6%) children received breast feed,72(47.4%) children received two doses of Rota vaccine and 128 (84.2%) children received three doses of Pneumococcal vaccines. Significant impact was seen with breast feeding and Rota vaccine on the frequency of diarrhea with p value of 0.0001. Breastfeeding and the pneumococcal vaccine both had a similar potent effect on the prevalence of pneumonia, with a p-value of 0.006. Conclusions: Our study highlights the importance of breast feeding in vaccinated children, with incidence of diarrhea in breastfed, vaccinated children decreased to (32%), compared to 93% in non-breastfed, unvaccinated infants. Similarly, only 33% of breastfed, vaccinated children developed pneumonia, compared to 85% of unvaccinated, non-breastfed infants.

The relation between criminality in the family and criminality of Dutch adolescents
This study tests whether adolescents who come in contact with criminality in their family, have a greater chance of committing crimes themselves. To do so, it uses new CBS-data that makes it possible to analyze the criminality of all adolescents that live in the four biggest cities in the Netherlands in 2018, and their broad network of family members – parents, siblings, grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins. The results confirms prior research and show that the chance of a police registration for adolescents is greater if their family members also have a police registration.

An independent criminalization of psychological violence – Pro and counter arguments, and what now?
The central question in this article is which arguments argue in favor of or against an independent criminalization of psychological violence, and what further research should focus on. Arguments in favor of independent criminalization are found in the standardization and recognition of psychological violence, better awareness, a higher willingness to report crimes and a negative incentive for aid. The objections to separate criminalization consist in provability problems, psychological violence is already punishable, existing (less drastic) alternatives to criminal law and objections based on the lex certa-principle. Finally, the doctoral research conducted by co-author Timmers in this field is discussed.

Balancing between safety and care – Three opinions on hybrid working in a prison
In todays prisons, officers have to keep a balance between safety and care. By means of Q methodology, opinions of prison officers have been collected on this topic. Three opinions are distilled. For care first the starting point is giving care, for safety first the safety of staff and detainees must be guaranteed before giving care, for the third opinion, recovery first, care and safety must be at the service of the reintegration of the detainee. It is advisable to take these three profiles into account in coaching and training.
