Abstract

Pratylenchus is one of the most limiting nematodes of Musaceae production in the world. Knowledge of the nematode species is one of the requirements for its management in the field. This study aimed to identify up to the species level Pratylenchus populations associated with plantain and banana crops in the states of Caldas, Quindío, and Valle del Cauca in Colombia. In these regions, Pratylenchus has been reported to affect these crops in the past, but with records of the nematode only up to the genus level. For this purpose, five populations of Pratylenchus extracted from samples composed of roots and rhizospheric soil, four from plantain and one from banana, were identified through morphological, morphometric, and molecular analysis (sequencing of the D2–D3 of rRNA and cytochrome oxidase subunit I of mtDNA). All populations were identified as P. araucensis, a species reported previously in eastern Colombia, and one that the present study found in the center and southwest of the country, indicating that this species of nematode is widely distributed in the Musaceae-producing areas of Colombia. The present study reports the first COI mtDNA sequences for this species of nematode.

Abstract
Despite the development of medicine, acts of violence against health care professionals, are a current, frequent and widespread phenomenon. In Poland, many health care staff are entitled by law to legal protection provided for public officials. Therefore, criminal offenses against them are more severely punished. In the years 2018-2019, research was carried out on acts of aggression that had been experienced by a group of 249 health care staff in health care facilities in the Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship. Just slightly more than 7.5% of the respondents indicated that they had not experienced aggression, which only confirms the scale of the problem. Therefore, managers of health care facilities should use all possible means to limit the extent of attacks and prevent their possible consequences..

Published: January 2023

Abstract

Background
Some previous research showed that average daily exposure to extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic fields (MF) of more than 0.3 or 0.4 μT could potentially increase risk of childhood leukaemia.

Materials and methods
To allow calculations of ELF MF around high voltage (HV) power lines (PL) for the whole Slovenia, a new three-dimensional method including precision terrain elevation data was developed to calculate the long-term average ELF MF. Data on population of Slovenian children and adolescents and on cancer patients with leukaemia’s aged 0–19 years, brain tumours at age 0–29, and cancer in general at age 0–14 for a 12-year period 2005–2016 was obtained from the Slovenian Cancer Registry.

Results
According to the large-scale calculation for the whole country, only 0.5% of children and adolescents under the age of 19 in Slovenia lived in an area near HV PL with ELF MF density greater than 0.1 μT. The risk of cancer for children and adolescents living in areas with higher ELF MF was not significantly different from the risk of their peers.

Conclusions
The new method enables relatively fast calculation of the value of low-frequency magnetic fields for arbitrary loads of the power distribution network, as the value of each source for arbitrary load is calculated by scaling the value for nominal load, which also enables significantly faster adjustment of calculated estimates in the power distribution network.

Abstract
Osteoa rthritis is a heterogeneous group of diseases with typical joint damage by articular cartilage damage, along with degenerative changes in the epiphyses of the bones adjacent to the affected joint and the synovial joint.
Osteoarthritis affects people over 50 years, but the onset is much earlier if an occupational factor is present. Due to the high prevalence, osteoarthritis is the leading cause of presentation to primary care, either in the family or occupational medicine. Osteoarthritis also poses an economic burden to society due to direct costs such as the price paid for a visit to the doctor, the cost of drugs or implanted prostheses, or indirect costs generated by decreased fitness for a job or even disability. The occupational medicine specialist has the leading role in primary and secondary prevention in this sense. The collaboration between the family doctor – rehabilitation and occupational physician has the function of tertiary prevention maintaining the quality of life and socioeconomic life in case of these types of patients.

Abstract
Complications of the SARS-CoV-2 infection have significantly impacted the affected people’s quality of life and professional activity. Neurological manifestations may be present from the onset of infection but also in the course of the disease. The most common neurological symptoms are headache, anosmia/hyposmia, ageusia/dysgeusia, and myalgia. The studies also mention severe complications such as stroke, cerebral hemorrhage, meningitis, encephalitis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, acute transverse myelitis, convulsions, and movement disorders, as the infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus is affecting both central and peripheral nervous systems. SARS-CoV-2 can worsen the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, increasing the mortality rate in patients with advanced disease.
The potential risk of inducing Parkinson’s disease has also been suggested, with the virus penetrating the brain where it can trigger cellular processes involved in neurodegeneration. We present you with the case of a nurse in the medical field, without comorbidities, who developed Parkinson’s disease after infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Establishing a cause-and-effect relationship between the onset of Parkinson’s disease and viral infection may be possible, but the mechanisms by which it affects the nervous system and the involvement of the immune system in the pathogenesis of these manifestations are still under study. The progression of the disease, functional status, and ability to work can have a negative impact on professional activity.
The association between lung cancer and silicosis: from theory to practice in occupational medicine
Authors: Oțelea Marina Ruxandra 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
Unbound (free) crystalline-silica dust is recognized since 2012 by the International Agency for Research on Cancer as a class I carcinogen. Exposure to this professional hazard was massive at the end of the last century, and it continues to exist today, albeit at lower levels. The number of cases of occupational cancer attributed to this exposure is minimal in Romania due to the absence of adequate post-exposure monitoring and the reporting of cases that encounters multiple obstacles, such as the absence of exposure data or the disappearance of the industrial sites in which the exposure took place. Occupational exposure to free crystalline silica dust can cause silicosis, and the presence of this disease certifies the existence of significant exposure. That is why the declaration of occupational cancer in a patient previously diagnosed with silicosis should be straightforward because the proof of exposure already exists.
This article presents the cancer-silicosis relationship from the perspective of current scientific data and aims to substantiate the decision of the doctors from the public health departments who investigate and declare the reported cases.
Comparison of Suitable Business Models for the 5th Generation District Heating System Implementation through Game Theory Approach
Authors: Pakere Ieva , Kacare Marika , Murauskaite Lina , Huang Pei , Volkova Anna 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
District Heating and Cooling (DHC) technology is widely recognised as a promising solution for reducing primary energy consumption and emissions. The 5th Generation District Heating and Cooling (5GDHC) network is the latest DHC concept characterised by low-temperature supply, bi-directional heating network operation, decentralised energy flows, and surplus heat sharing. Unlike the 4th Generation District Heating (4GDH) technology, the 5GDHC technology switched to a consumer/prosumer-oriented perspective. The introduction of 5GDHC solutions requires high investments, an important barrier to further developing DHC systems. Therefore, a novel pricing and business model could include introducing co-owners or energy managers into the system. Three different local market business models for 5GDHC at the community level have been tested. The reverse technical and economic simulation has been used for a feasibility study to determine the resources, business models, and combinations closest to the break-even point with lower costs and higher gains for all involved stakeholders.
The Potential and Implications of Automated Pre-Processing of LiDAR-Based Digital Elevation Models for Large-Scale Archaeological Landscape Analysis
Authors: Novák David , Pružinec Filip , Lieskovský Tibor 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
LiDAR-derived digital elevation models (DEMs) have transformed the archaeological study of landscape features, broadened our technical capabilities, and enhanced the accuracy with which terrain relief is described. These models also place demands on how researchers and analysts interpret DEM content in the context of the modern landscape. LiDAR-based DEMs contain modern man-made structures that can significantly influence model properties. Although data are usually filtered and some of these artificial features are removed during bare-earth classification, many terrain interventions remain visible. This large-scale case study applies established methods to a freely available DEM of the Czech Republic in an attempt to evaluate differences between original and filtered DEMs. It applies a fully automated filtering procedure using vector topographic maps to avoid manual corrections that would make the procedure problematic when used on a macro scale. The results of our archaeological GIS analysis demonstrate that this procedure, despite its relative simplicity, can achieve a significantly better representation of a landscape compared to that offered by an unfiltered DEM. Finally, we propose a series of future steps with a view to developing a more comprehensive and accurate model and overcoming its limitations.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
The article presents the results of a study involving the properties of flax and hemp-based lightweight concretes as well as the initial characteristics of different straw-based materials. A comparison of straw-based lightweight concretes with and without ordinary Portland cement (OPC) showed that hemp concrete has a 5.6 % higher strength at a 10% deformation, and at the same time, has a 13% greater thermal conductivity coefficient than flax concrete. The physical-chemical study based on a thermal analysis in an air environment has shown that the overall picture of thermal degradation for flax and hemp concretes is similar. Nevertheless, additional peaks of mass loss have been defined for flax concrete. The demonstrated exothermal process is a positive aspect, considering the life cycle of the material and the recycling stage. The paper proposes reference points for the development of new building materials based on straw.
The Compaction of Energy and Properties of Roller-Compacted Concrete Pavement with Fillers
Authors: Saoudi Nacira , Cherfa Hayet , Saoudi Brahim , Zaanoun Bodjemaa 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
This case study aims to investigate the effects of compaction methods on the mechanical behavior of roller compacted concrete pavement (RCCP) mixtures, which consist of the replacement of different cement by 0%, 5%, and 10% limestone by volume fraction and which were compacted by two compaction methods. These methods are commonly discussed in the literature and were developed to simulate the site conditions in the laboratory. A modified Proctor test was adopted in the mix’s proportional process to optimize the aggregate’s percentage content of RCCP. The experimental series consisted of compression and split tensile performance tests to investigate the development of compaction performances at 28 days. The results showed that, where 10% of the cement was substituted by limestone, the RCC gives important flexural strength values compared to the quantity of the cement substitute. Qualitatively, the reduction in the strength of the concrete using the modified Proctor compaction method led to the weakness of the bond between the layers.
The Pressure Resistance of Odor Traps for Sanitary Appliances and their Impact on the Hygiene of an Indoor Environment
Authors: Sokol Martin , Peráčková Jana 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
The biggest problem with sanitary technology in high-rise buildings is the design of foul water stacks in which high negative pressure and overpressure values must not occur. When pressure exceeds maximum values, water from the trap is ejected, sucked out, or left bubbling in the trap. Measurements by other researchers have shown that when traps lose their function, in addition to the spreading of unpleasant odors, there is also the spreading of various viruses from the sewer and drainage systems. The paper deals with the mathematical analysis and simulation of the pressure resistance of different traps under various boundary conditions, considering the quality of the internal environment. The effect of water evaporation on pressure resistance was also simulated and assessed. The results of the work are clear tables of pressure resistances with a description of their effect on the water level in the trap.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
The article describes the process of redesigning the intake structure of the fish pass at the Žilina water structure in Slovakia. The existing intake structure does not meet the passability requirements for the target species of migratory fish. A design utilizing intake windows at various levels that cover fluctuations in the water level in the reservoir, which has been successfully used for other water structures, has been proposed. The new design was subjected to hydraulic calculations and simulations in the HECRAS 2D, 2D numerical model in order to achieve the required parameters such as the discharges, depths, and velocities within the limits for the specified fish zone.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
Potential changes in a hydrological regime caused by a changing climate represent a crucial source of uncertainty in water resources management. For example, in Slovakia, they may manifest themselves in a decrease in water resources, a change in the seasonality of runoff, and an increase in the extremes of floods and droughts. The research presented here focuses on using the hydrological balance equation to predict changes in the total catchment evapotranspiration under changing climate conditions. Using the TUW rainfall-runoff model and the KNMI and MPI climate change scenarios, the hydrological regime of eight selected basins in Slovakia was simulated for three thirty-year periods from 2010 until the year 2100. The results showed that the growth of total catchment evapotranspiration observed in recent decades is likely to increase further in the future.
