Published: June 2023

To date, an important role in many areas of economic activity is played by road freight transport. First of all, it depends on how quickly and reliably the goods will be delivered from one place to another. With an extensive list of various goods that need to be transported, there is no less a large selection of vehicles to perform these tasks.
Due to the fact that heavy trucks are currently prohibited from entering most cities, low-tonnage trucks, including vans and trucks of the transport category “N1”, have become in demand. Their main purpose is the transportation of small shipments within the city or over relatively short distances.
Low-tonnage trucks should have not only high dynamic characteristics, but also low fuel consumption. Numerous studies have shown that the most promising direction of increasing dynamic characteristics and reducing fuel consumption are mechanical energy recovery devices that accumulate the energy of the rotating masses of the car during braking and transfer it to the same rotating masses at the moment the car starts moving. Analysis of the movement of light trucks using a mechanical energy recovery device can reveal changes in the dynamics of light trucks and fuel consumption.
Purpose. Investigation of changes in dynamic characteristics and fuel consumption of a low-tonnage truck with a mechanical energy recovery unit using a model in the MATLAB Simulink environment.
Methodology. Methods of mathematical modeling and analysis were used in the article.
Results. The parameters showing the efficiency of operation of a low-tonnage truck with a mechanical energy recovery unit are obtained.
Practical implications. The results obtained can be applied when designing a car to identify the optimal parameters of the vehicle’s power plant, which are used together with mechanical energy recovery devices.

Published: June 2023

In the proposed work, a highly sensitive reduced graphene oxide (rGO) coated etched fiber Bragg grating (eFBG) pH sensor is developed and characterized. To create the sensing probe, a nanocomposite layer of rGO is coated over the unclad area of the eFBG. The analysis of rGO material has been done using different characterization tools such as UV-VIS-NIR spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction (XRD), and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). Experiments are performed using pH samples ranging from pH 2 to pH 12 to validate the operational sensing range of the proposed sensor. The effectiveness of the proposed sensor is evaluated with various pH values by monitoring the shift in the resonance peak of the sensor’s reflection spectrum in a real-time interrogation system. The sensor performs well in both low and high pH ranges, with a maximum sensitivity of 0.232 nm/pH at pH 12. Due to a shift in the rGO’s optical band-gap at both low and high pH values in the samples, the sensor can detect minimal changes in concentration. In the reflected spectrum, the Bragg wavelength (λ
B
) shifts as a result of the change in the refractive index. The λ
B
is observed to change as the pH of the aqueous solution is changed experimentally. Its performance is shown to be minimally affected by the ambient temperature (in the range of 19−21∘C). The sensor also has the capacity for remote sensing, a quick response time, a small size, a low cost, a miniaturized probe, and the ability to reuse the probe.
Educational innovation as a communication strategy in palliative care: A study protocol and preliminary results
Authors: Salas Moreira Ana Paula , Baceiredo Beatriz Gómez , Centeno Carlos , Reigada Carla 
Published: June 2023

Introduction
Society associates palliative care with "death" or "end of life", which cause them fear and anxiety. In Spain, the media worsens the misunderstanding by depicting a wrong picture of palliative care. Educational innovation for university students may serve as an alternative communication strategy. Care and Society is a university course designed by and for students from non-health degrees to help disseminate the palliative care message. The first year of the Teach-Inn Pal project aims to evaluate the effects of the course and to identify areas of improvement.

Objective
To present an evaluation to determine if the course can work as a campaign to refocus the public opinion on palliative care and share the preliminary results of the pilot study.

Methodology
A prospective Participatory Action Research study. University students enrolled in the course (n = 29) are invited to test and redesign the palliative care message. Knowledge and empathy will be measured throughout the learning process. Afterwards, qualitative, thematic, inductive analysis of the course material will be carried out. This study is registered on the ISRCTN Registry under the name “Can a university course help communicate palliative care?” (Registration number: ISRCTN10236642).

Discussion
This study is part of a doctoral thesis. Education is used as a creative outlet, allowing rapid testing of multiple tools to create ambassadors of palliative care that may reframe the public opinion.

Conclusion
The understanding of students about palliative care changed, the overall impression of the experience was positive, and students were also able to explain palliative care to people with little or no experience in the topic. However, to determine if they became ambassadors the results of the mid-term assessment are required.

Published: June 2023

Background
Maternal near-miss refers to women who survive death from life-threatening obstetric complications and has various social, financial, physical, and psychological impacts on families.

Objective
To explore male partners’ perceptions of maternal near-miss experienced by their female partners and the associated psychosocial impacts on their families in Rwanda.

Methods
This was a qualitative study involving 27 semi-structured in-depth interviews with male partners whose spouses experienced a maternal near-miss event. Data were analyzed using a thematic coding to generate themes from participants’ responses.

Results
Six key themes that emerged were: male partner’s support during wife’s pregnancy and during maternal near-miss hospitalization, getting the initial information about the spouse’s near-miss event, psychosocial impacts of spouse’s near-miss, socio-economic impact of spouse’s near-miss, post- maternal near-miss family dynamics, and perceived strategies to minimize the impacts of near-miss. Male partners reported emotional, social, and economic impacts as a result of their traumatic experiences.

Conclusions
The impact of maternal near-miss among families in Rwanda remains an area that needs healthcare attention. The residual emotional, financial, and social consequences not only affect females, but also their male partners and their relatives. Male partners should be involved and be well-informed about their partners’ conditions and the expected long-term effects of near-miss. Also, medical and psychological follow-up for both spouses is necessary for the enhancement of the health and well-being of affected households.

Abstract

Objectives
Asians are particularly susceptible to obesity-associated disorders and rapid progression of obesity from childhood to adulthood. Data on the association between adipocytokine parameters, particularly adipocytokine ratios, and cardiovascular risk factors in childhood remain limited. Herein, we assessed the association of resistin, adiponectin, and leptin levels and leptin/adiponectin and resistin/adiponectin ratios with selected cardiovascular risk factors and the influence of unhealthy weight on such associations in children aged 9–10 years.

Methods
We included 380 children aged 9–10 years from three public elementary schools in Japan.

Results
The body mass index (BMI) was significantly higher in male preadolescents than in female adolescents (median 16.5 kg/m2 vs. 16.2 kg/m2, p=0.032). No differences in height, weight, waist circumference (WC), waist/height ratio (W/Hr), total cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, or atherosclerosis index (AI) were observed between the sexes. Of the adipocytokine levels and ratios analyzed, only the leptin level and leptin/adiponectin ratio (L/Ar) were strongly and significantly positively correlated with the cardiovascular risk factors WC, W/Hr, and BMI (all p<0.05). The AI was not strongly correlated with any adipocytokine levels or ratios. Apart from the strong positive correlation between the L/Ar and W/Hr, no other significant associations were observed between any of the adipocytokine levels or ratios and the selected cardiovascular risk factors.

Conclusions
Our findings confirmed the value of adipocytokine ratios in risk assessment in pediatric populations, with leptin levels and leptin/adiponectin ratios strongly correlating with risk factors in children aged 9–10 years.
Die Legitimation von Entmenschlichung, Misogynie und Gewalt im Hinduismus
Authors: Völker Fabian 
Published: June 2023

ZusammenfassungSeit Jahren steigt in Indien die Anzahl der spezifisch gegenüber Frauen, hierarchisch tieferstehenden Geburts- (varṇa) und Berufsgruppen (jāti) sowie Kastenlosen (dalits;scheduled castes) und indigenen Gemeinschaften (ādivāsī;scheduled tribes) angezeigten Gewalttaten kontinuierlich an. Diese Gewaltakte und Tötungsdelikte sind aufgrund ihrer Qualität und vor allem aufgrund ihrer quantitativen Größenordnung als systemisch anzusehen. Dass sie in dieser Form noch immer ein akutes Gegenwartsproblem von allerhöchster sozialer und politischer Brisanz im vordergründig säkularisierten Indien darstellen, legt einen gesamtgesellschaftlichen Konsens über deren grundsätzliche Rechtmäßigkeit nahe, der sich anhand tradierter Normen- und Wertvorstellungen sowie prämoderner Denk- und Handlungsmuster legitimiert, die auf traditionell hinduistischen Ideen basieren. Dabei kann der politische Aufstieg der nationalreligiös argumentierenden und agitierenden „Indischen Volkspartei“ (BJP:Bhāratīya Janatā Pārṭī) sowie ihr politisch forcierter Rückgriff auf den Hinduismus als einzelner, aber dennoch entscheidender Einflussfaktor gesehen werden, der die anhaltende Verschärfung innergesellschaftlicher Gegensätze und die kontinuierliche Intensivierung der Gewaltdynamiken ursächlich zu erklären vermag. Um diese Zusammenhänge zu beleuchten, vollzieht der Beitrag die ideengeschichtlichen Grundlagen religiös legitimierter Entmenschlichung und Gewalt sowie latenter wie offener Misogynie im Hinduismus von seinen vedischen Ursprüngen im 2. vorchristlichen Jahrtausend bis zur Gegenwart nach.

Published: June 2023

In brief
Clinical and subclinical endometritis are different manifestations of reproductive tract inflammatory disease in dairy cows. This review addresses the genesis of clinical and subclinical endometritis considering metabolic stress, innate immune dysfunction, and shifts in the composition of the uterine microbiota in the postpartum period.

Abstract
Up to half of dairy cows may develop one or more types of reproductive tract inflammatory disease within 5 weeks after calving. Clinical endometritis (CE) results from uterine bacterial dysbiosis with increased relative abundance of pathogenic bacteria associated with luminal epithelial damage. These bacteria cause endometrial stromal cell lysis, followed by massive polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) migration, and pyogenesis. CE is defined as endometrial inflammation accompanied by purulent discharge. Purulent discharge is not always accompanied by uterine inflammation (being (rarely) vaginitis or (commonly) cervicitis), hence referred to as purulent vaginal discharge (PVD). Subclinical endometritis (SCE) is an asymptomatic uterine disease defined by a threshold of PMN on cytology that is associated with worse reproductive performance; it has not been linked with bacterial dysbiosis. Current evidence suggests that SCE is a result of metabolic and inflammatory dysfunction that impairs innate immune function and the ability of endometrial PMN to undergo apoptosis, necrosis, and ultimately achieve resolution of inflammation. CE and SCE are diagnosed between 3 and 5 weeks postpartum and commonly overlap, but they are considered distinct manifestations of reproductive tract inflammatory disease. This review addresses the genesis of CE and SCE in postpartum dairy cows considering metabolic stress, innate immune dysfunction, and shifts in the composition of the uterine microbiota.

Published: June 2023

Os alagamentos são os maiores danos causados pela urbanização intensiva, responsável pela alta impermeabilização do solo. Sob esta perspectiva, os telhados verdes são opções viáveis e sustentáveis para evitar a sobrecarga do sistema de drenagem. A vegetação, portanto, deve ser cuidadosamente selecionada para alcançar a melhor eficiência hidrológica, pois é ela o fator mais influente do escoamento. Este trabalho tem como objetivo, por meio de uma Revisão Sistemática de Literatura (RSL) e com o auxílio do Periódicos CAPES e da ferramenta computacional State of the Art through Systematic Review (StArt), analisar artigos publicados dentro da temática de Telhados verdes (TV) utilizados como alternativa para mitigar alagamentos, identificando as espécies que foram utilizadas em cada estudo, correlacionando com o clima local e identificando os gêneros de vegetais mais utilizadas em diferentes países. Observou-se que a vegetação (VG) mais proeminente associada à frequência no TV foi a Sedum sp, encontrada em mais de 50% dos estudos. Não foi possível identificar consistência ou frequência de seleção de VG em climas tropicais e áridos. Constatou-se também que em regiões de clima continental, todos os estudos utilizaram a Sedum para implementar e desenvolver práticas sustentáveis ​​de controle de escoamento em áreas urbanas. Portanto, é necessário entender o desempenho hidrológico da cobertura vegetal sob diferentes condições climáticas. Com relação a locais com climas tropicais e áridos, mais pesquisas são necessárias para determinar os gêneros de VG mais utilizados na região.
