Authors: Hoff Ambos Stefania , Binkowski Patricia 
Published: July 2023

El cambio climático es un tema emergente, debido a los efectos impactantes observados a diferentes niveles: local, regional y global. Con el fin de revelar matices sobre el cambio climático, este artículo tiene como objetivo identificar los principales grupos que investigan el tema en universidades federales en el estado de Rio Grande do Sul (RS), Brasil, sus principales investigaciones, agenda de debates y políticas públicas. La investigación presenta un enfoque cualitativo, de tipo exploratorio, descriptivo e interpretativo. Se entrevistaron tres investigadores líderes y/o participantes de grupos de investigación vinculados al Diretório de Grupos de Pesquisa (DGP) del Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq) vinculado al Ministério de Educação (MEC) del gobierno federal de Brasil. Se verificó la existencia de una red de investigación en torno a la lucha contra el cambio climático en RS, aún de carácter informal, donde diferentes investigadoras/es desarrollan alianzas entre universidades del estado de RS, Brasil y del exterior. Esta red de investigación tiene una característica muy peculiar: se forma por investigadoras/es y desde la mirada interdisciplinaria, pues involucra varios sectores y áreas de conocimiento. Las/os investigadoras/es trajeron aspectos relevantes de sus investigaciones, con implicaciones directas e indirectas para la sociedad brasileña e internacional. Los principales resultados apuntan que existen pocas acciones de gobierno ubicadas hacia el combate al cambio climático y la baja articulación del poder público en relación al tema se vuelve preocupante. Investigar el tema climático es bastante complejo, ya que las condiciones humanas y ambientales están en constante transición. La formación y visibilidad de esta red de investigadoras/es abre un abanico de posibilidades para que la sociedad civil obtenga información a fin de enfrentar el cambio climático, formular y exigir más políticas públicas.
YERS–ULAM–RASSIAS STABILITY OF NONLINEAR DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS WITH A GENERALIZED ACTIONS ON THE RIGHT-HAND SIDE
Authors: Sesekin Alexander N. , Kandrina Anna D. 
Published: July 2023

The paper considers the Hyers–Ulam–Rassias stability for systems of nonlinear differential equations with a generalized action on the right-hand side, for example, containing impulses — delta functions. The fact that the derivatives in the equation are considered distributions required a correction of the well known Hyers–Ulam–Rassias definition of stability for such equations. Sufficient conditions are obtained that ensure the property under study.

Growth profile of children with beta-thalassemia major
Authors: Jadhav Shridhar Subhash 
Published: July 2023

Background: Retarded growth in thalassemic patient is complex and multi-factorial, it includes chronic hypoxia secondary to anemia when pre-transfusion haemoglobin is below 9 g/dl. Development of secondary sexual characteristics in thalassemic children is markedly delayed as compared to their non-thalassemic siblings and to the expected development criteria due to chronic hypoxia and iron overload. The main objective of the present study is to monitor the growth of these patients longitudinally
Methods: This was a observational, cross sectional field study in Pune, Maharashtra.
Result: Patients with beta-thalassemia major on regular blood transfusions have growth failure, deranged liver function and hypocalcaemia in conjunction with high serum ferritin levels
Conclusions: Beta thalassemia major, having the potential of leading to multisystemic complications, is a chronic disease that should be treated and followed-up by a multidisciplinary approach.
Feeding behaviours in infancy of children later diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder
Authors: Varma Chaitanya , De-Souza Nandita 
Published: July 2023

Background: Autism spectrum disorder, the fastest growing childhood neurodevelopmental diagnosis, shows good outcomes with early intervention. The search for behavioral early markers is an important area of research. Studies of breastfeeding and weaning behaviours in autism have reported characteristic patterns which could be early indicators of this condition.
Methods: The study was a cross sectional survey of breastfeeding and weaning patterns during the first year of life in 50 children aged 15 months to 5 years, including 25 with ASD and 25 Neurotypical children. A semi-structured interview schedule and the brief assessment of mealtime behavior in children scale was used to elicit feeding history from their mothers. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics and tests of significance.
Results: There were significant differences in the patterns of early feeding of children with ASD, compared to the NT children. 64% ASD children showed dysregulated vigorous sucking during breastfeeding, without knowing when to stop. 52% of them breast fed for more than 40 minutes per feed. 68% continued to breastfeed beyond the age of 2 years. A significant proportion of ASD children also showed weaning difficulties such as limited variety (40%), food refusal (36%) and disruptive mealtime behaviour (32%).
Conclusions: Children with ASD show significantly more challenging breastfeeding and weaning behaviours in infancy, compared to NT children. These patterns could be identified by parents and health workers in early child development as possible early signs of ASD and prompt referral for further diagnostic evaluation.

The relevance. Mechanical earth modeling is widely used in various fields of science and technology. In the oil and gas industry, one-dimensional mechanical earth models are used to analyze wellbore stability, to design hydraulic fracturing, to assess the probability of sand production with oil and gas flow, and as input data for three-dimensional mechanical earth models. One-dimensional mechanical earth models are very demanding on the volume and quality of the initial data, for example, when calibrating the model to define the uniaxial compression strength and horizontal stresses, borehole imager data are required, which are usually not recorded in all wells and in whole interval. At the same time, almost every well has caliper data. Therefore, solving the problem of calibration of a one-dimensional mechanical earth model using more accessible caliper data is an urgent problem, the solution of which will allow building calibrated geomechanical models for a larger number of wells. The main aim: to develop an approach for calibration of one-dimensional mechanical earth models based on well caliper data. Methods: geometric approximation, analysis of laboratory studies, as well as analytical methods for calculating the stress-strain state near the well wall. Results. The paper introduces the equations and the algorithm to define the stresses and uniaxial compression strength of rocks using geometric approximation of borehole breakouts according to caliper data in wells.

Published: July 2023

This paper aims to examine the effect of selected factors that link to completion of NSSF construction projects and how they are influenced by the various critical factors. The main objective was to establish the critical success factors and their effects on performance of construction projects. Four theories namely Game theory, Principal-Agent theory, Construction Management, and Soft Value Management (SVM) theory served as the foundation for this research. Descriptive research design was employed for data collection, analysis, presentation and interpretation.The target population was 512 stakeholders from six complete commercial and residential projects. Purposive sampling was used to select 84 participants for the study. Semi-structured questionnaires were used in the study to collect data. The data was analyzed using SPSS whereby descriptive and inferential statistics were used. The results show that the R-square value was 0.282 and R was 0.531. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) was significant at p=0.001 with an F statistic of 9.961 indicating that the model used was fit for the data. The data also revealed that client variations (p= 0.05), financial availability (p = 0.047), and construction disputes (p = 0.001) are statistically significant determinants affecting the performance of NSSF construction projects. The main findings of the study demonstrate that the key critical success factors used in this study affected the performance of NSSF-completed construction projects either positively or negatively. The study recommends that companies should adhere to the principles that safeguard project management to adequately manage the critical factors and ultimately minimize project delays.

Marco Bellocchio y Ricardo Jimeno, autores imprescindibles para entender el cine italiano
Authors: Jurado Martín Montserrat 
Published: July 2023

Son pocas las referencias al director de cine italiano Mario Bellocchio en la literatura científica española. Si bien sus compatriotas han sabido dedicarle el análisis que le corresponde, lo ha tenido más complicado fuera de sus fronteras. No obstante, las referencias y los estudios en torno a su cine y su persona tienen probablemente una profundidad y un análisis de una gran calidad. Cuando hablamos del cine de Marco Bellocchio hablamos, tal y como describe Jimeno: "Todo está mezclado en el universo bellocchiano, y en todas sus obras, en las primeras y en las últimas, aparecen sus obsesiones, sus madres impasibles, sus inconformistas antropológicos, sus espejos que rasgan la frontera entre la realidad y la ficción, el sueño y la razón, o la cordura y la locura". Entre los primeros puestos del ranking en el estudio en profundidad del director de cine italiano, está el que hoy proponemos para su lectura, El cine de Marco Bellocchio. Rabia, desencanto y lucidez, del autor Ricardo Jimeno Aranda. La obra se presenta como una adaptación de carácter divulgativo de su tesis doctoral, La aproximación a la realidad histórica desde la perspectiva del cine político europeo contemporáneo: dos miradas: Marco Bellocchio y Costa-Gavras (Jimeno, 2014).
A 3-D Surface Wave Attenuation Method Based Model Rebuilding and Its Application
Authors: Huo Yuan Yuan , Yang Rui , Pan Jishun , Li Xin 
Published: July 2023

Abstract
The loess tableland area, located in the south of the Ordos Basin, shows complicated landforms and geological conditions.
They lead to a mass of noise on seismic profiles, especially surface waves. Conventional methods are difficult to suppress 3D surface waves since they are hyperbolic in the far-array. This paper proposed a new model-based, data-driven noise attenuation method, which uses dispersion curve analysis of surface wave and joint inversion based on genetic algorithm (GA) and conjugate gradient algorithm, to build an accurate surface wave model, and then to subtract the model directly from seismic data to improve the signal to noise ratio (SNR). Numerical tests show that joint inversion of dispersion waves was stable, accurate, and efficient in multi-type models, including models with a low-velocity layer and with a high-velocity layer. In practical applications in the south of Ordos Basin, the 3-D surface wave attenuation method is effective in surface wave suppression. The low-frequency information and the reflect signal are efficiently preserved. Seismic faces are more apparent for reservoir characterization. This method provided credible data for the exploration of the loess tableland area. Keywords Surface Wave, Model-Based, Genetic Algorithm, Dispersion Curves

Abstract
Background: The early determination and treatment of lung exacerbation have a significant role in increasing the health and quality of life in patients with cystic fibrosis. The Multiple-breath washout (MBW) technique was used to discriminate between health and disease of the lungs recently, however, its role in the prediction of upcoming exacerbation is not clear .This study aims to clarify this ambiguity.
Methods: We recruited 60 clinically stable children with cystic fibrosis who were coming to the CF clinic for periodic care. In addition to the routine pulmonary function tests (PFT), we performed MBW technique for all subjects as an annual assessment. Subsequently, in the follow-up period, we admitted all patients who had experienced exacerbation within two weeks after the MBWT for proper antimicrobial therapy. During admission, we reevaluated the PFT results of hospitalized subjects and compared them with the PFT results of subjects who had no exacerbation.
Results: Overall 55 subjects finished the trial; 18 cases (32.7%) were hospitalized and 37 patients (67.3%) were not hospitalized. The LCI5% variable had no significant difference between hospitalized and non-hospitalized groups. The median of the LCI2.5% in the hospitalized group (13.26) was greater than in the non-hospitalized group(7.82), this difference was statistically significant (P = 0.0001). The mean value of M2 /M0 in hospitalized patients (16.31) was greater than in non-hospitalized patients (5.97) and this difference was statistically significant (P = 0.0001).
Conclusion: Our study outcomes had a valuable ability to predict exacerbation, however, this hypothesis requires further studies with larger sample sizes.
