Integración del patrimonio natural y redes de infraestructura verde como mejora de los bienes públicos del olivar con orientación turístico-recreativa
Authors: CONDE SÁNCHEZ ANDRÉS , LORA GONZÁLEZ ANGEL 
Published: January 2023

El paisaje del olivar tradicional viene sufriendo distintos riesgos agravados por la actual crisis del sector, su simplificación, abandono, o arranque, y sus efectos en la población local y en su valor natural hacen necesario potenciar y valorar una bandeja más amplia de recursos, en forma de bienes y servicios públicos, naturales y socioculturales, que estos olivares pueden ofrecer y que es necesario desarrollar e investigar. Para ello, las estrategias de infraestructura verde y conectividad ecológicas aplicadas en estos olivares, se conforman como unas herramientas clave en la recuperación y mejora de estos recursos, poniendo en valor los elementos del paisaje con una orientación, entre otras, turístico-recreativa. Para el estudio del alcance de estas estrategias en el olivar tradicional llevada a cabo en el municipio de Almedinilla (Córdoba), donde el olivar tradicional ocupa el grueso de su término, se realizó un análisis cartográfico, inventariando el patrimonio natural y sus elementos del paisaje agrario, así como las zonas potenciales para su ampliación. Como resultado de este, se obtuvieron cartografías que volcaron una alta potencialidad de mejora del paisaje agrario, y con ellas el diseño de una amplia y funcional red de conectividad ecológica, evidenciando una marcada capacidad de estos olivares como proveedores de todo un abanico de bienes y servicios públicos.

Madhyamaka and Advaita Vedānta on the Ontology of Time
Authors:   Institute of Oriental Manuscripts, Russian Academy of Sciences, Burmistrov Sergey L. 
Published: January 2023

Fundamental difference between Buddhist Mahāyāna school of Madhyamaka and Brāhmaṇic school of Advaita Vedānta in interpretation of ontology of time is analyzed on the basis of Nāgārjuna’s (2–3rd cc.) treatise Mūla-madhyamaka-kārikā, Candrakīrti’s (7th c.) commentary Prasannapadā, Vasubandhu’s (4th c.) treatise Abhidharmakośa, Asaṅga’s (4th c.) Abhidharma-samuccaya, Śaṃkara’s (9th c.) commentary to Bādarāyaṇa’s (2nd c.) Brahma- sūtras and Sadānanda’s (15th c.) Vedāntasāra. Time according to Madhyamaka is the result of the activ­ity of consciousness blinded by afflictions (kleśa), and therefore it is just mental construction having no referent in reality. There is no time in true reality, for time presupposes the difference between past, present and future. But, according to Mahāyāna, any difference is engendered by afflictions and the true reality is free from them. Differences, including the difference between past, present and future, exist only in a saṃsāric consciousness. In other words, time for Mahāyāna is nothing more than an epistemological phenomenon. Time in Ad­vaita Vedānta has a positive ontological status. The only true reality is Brahman, and the empirical world is subject to changes and therefore cannot be considered as perfectly real. But if it were perfectly unreal it could not conceal Brahman and manifest itself in individual consciousness as ignorance. Therefore time as one of its aspects is only relatively real and exists not only in individual conscious­ness but also outside of it as a part of māyā, the creative power of Brahman. The overcoming of ignorance is the penetration to truly real Brahman through changing and temporary world that conceals it.

Abstract
Background: Daily exposure and overuse of digital devices are associated with several health-related issues to human eye, muscles and bones that are collectively termed as Digital Eye Strain and related Musculoskeletal Disorders. These problems have become worse during covid-19 pandemic due to global shift towards working online. This paper introduces a validated research instrument called DESRIL-27 to be used in assessing digital eye strain and related musculoskeletal disorders, with their associated risk factors in the working population.
Methods: DESRIL-27 was developed from thorough review of salient literatures and in consultation with a team of experts to ensure the content validity. This 27-item tool consists of two scales, namely symptom severity and risk level scales. Reliability and validity analyses were conducted to assess the psychometric properties of DESRIL-27.
Results: Cronbach’s alpha was 0.91 for Symptom Severity and 0.88 for Risk Level from the scales in the questionnaire. Principal Component Analysis results ranged from acceptable to very good.
Conclusions:The procedures adopted for the validation and the results of the analysis reveal that DESRIL-27 is a reliable and valid research instrument. It can be safely used in future research studies to assess the visual and musculoskeletal problems and their risk factors in digital screen users. The resultant knowledge can help individuals, health practitioners, and related policy makers to prevent and control these problems at workplace.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
To address the unequal-area dynamic facility layout problem (UA-DFLP), an optimization method of dynamic facility layout under fixed-point movement strategy was proposed in this paper. Firstly, mathematical models of dynamic facility layout in several production planning period were constructed. Secondly, according to the logistics relationship between facilities, the fixed-point movement strategy was proposed to solve the problem of non-interference constraint processing in the unequal area dynamic facility layout. Then, a genetic simulated annealing algorithm (GSA) for static facility layout and a genetic algorithm (GA) for dynamic facility layout were designed to solve the UA-DFLP by two steps. The first step, the GSA was applied to solve the optimal layout in each phase with the objective of minimizing material handling cost (MHC), and the isomorphic layout corresponding to the optimal layout in each phase was evolved by mirroring and rotation operation; The second step, according to the optimal layout and feasible isomorphic layout of each phase, GA was applied to solve the dynamic layout scheme aiming at minimizing the sum of MHC and facility replacement cost. Finally, the case study shows that the proposed layout method was an effective method to solve the UA-DFLP by three groups of examples.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
Background：Neuroendocrine carcinoma mainly occurs in the lung and gastrointestinal tract, rarely in the urinary tract. The proportion of neuroendocrine carcinomas was less than 0.05 % [2] in urinary malignant tumors. The most common location of neuroendocrine carcinomas in the urinary system is the bladder. Fewer neuroendocrine carcinomas occur in the ureter than in the bladder.
Case presentation: A 62 years old woman presented with right ureteral obstruction due to ureteral mass. The patient began chemotherapy 2 weeks after surgery. During the 14-month follow-up, the patient received 6 courses of etoposide and Carbopol chemotherapy, and imaging examination showed no signs of recurrence. Postoperative pathological examination showed large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the right ureter.
Conclusions: Large cell carcinoma of ureter has a rapid course of disease and poor prognosis. Ureteral large cell carcinoma is a very rare tumor. At present, there is no specific treatment scheme. However, considering the good response of its lung counterpart to the standard chemotherapy scheme and the experience of the cure of related urinary large cell carcinoma by chemotherapy [28], we argue that platinum-based chemotherapy is effective for it and patients can benefit from it. The multimodal treatment scheme of surgery combined with platinum-based chemotherapy is the current standard scheme for the treatment of ureteral neuroendocrine carcinoma.
An Improved Adaptive Exponential Reaching Sliding Mode Control Strategy for Intelligent Connected Vehicle System under Complex Communication Environment and Different Types of Interference

Published: January 2023

Abstract
This paper studies the performance of a nonlinear sliding mode controller in the cooperative control of the intelligent connected vehicles system. The study begins by proposing a V2V car-following model that takes into account the impacts of disturbances both external and within in the system. Subsequently, an improved adaptive exponential reaching sliding mode controller (IAERSMC) based on a non-singular terminal sliding mode variable is proposed. It is shown through theoretical analysis that with this controller, the system can converge in finite time and enhance dynamic performance. To verify the effectiveness of the controller proposed in this study, two simulation experiments are designed and performed. The first experiment tests the change of communication environment by transforming the communication topology, and the second experiment tests response to three different types of input interference: continuous regular interference, continuous irregular interference, and episodic disturbance. Simulation results show that the controller proposed in this study can maintain a stable operating state of the intelligent connected vehicles system in the face of the complex variable communication environments and different types of interference. The theoretical analysis agrees with the results of the simulated experiments.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
Continuous climate change forces cities to take actions to prevent risks and adapt urban spaces to new conditions. The experience of many European cities in recent years, shows that actions adapting urban space to climate change have become an important part of local policy. The subject of the article is the adaptation activities planned and implemented for climate change in urban spaces. The purpose of this article is to classify and identify adaptation activities carried out in large cities. The authors analysed data from 44 Polish cities and placed them in the context of leading adaptation activities carried out in selected European cities. The purpose of the detailed research is to compare the number of activities planned and implemented on the scale of individual Polish cities, indicating dominant and minority activities. The authors conclude that with the passage of time, climate change adaptation activities will have an increasing impact on shaping the landscape of European cities, including those of Poland. Their number will gradually increase, as will the awareness of the city authorities and the activity of local communities. The types of activity will also change, and with them the quality of urban spaces and the quality of life of residents.

Abstract
Wastewater treatment and simultaneous production of value-added products with microalgae represent a sustainable alternative. Industrial wastewater, characterized by high C:N molar ratios, can naturally improve the carbohydrate content in microalgae without the need for any external source of carbon while degrading the organic matter, macro- and micro-nutrients. This study aimed to understand the treatment, reuse, and valorization mechanisms of real cooling tower wastewater (CWW) from a cement processing industry mixed with domestic wastewater (DW) to produce microalgal biomass with potential for synthesis of biofuels or other value-added products. For this purpose, three photobioreactors with different hydraulic retention times (HRT) were inoculated simultaneously using the CWW-DW mixture. Macro- and micro-nutrient consumption and accumulation, organic matter removal, algae growth, and carbohydrate content were monitored for 55 days. High COD (> 80%) and macronutrient removals (> 80% of N and P) were achieved in all the photoreactors, with heavy metals below the limits established by local standards. The best results showed maximum algal growth of 1.02 g SSV L− 1, and 54% carbohydrate accumulation with a C:N ratio of 31.24 mol mol− 1. Additionally, the harvested biomass presented a high Ca and Si content, ranging from 11 to 26% and 2 to 4%, respectively. Remarkably, big flocs were produced during microalgae growth, which enhanced natural settling for easy biomass harvesting. Overall, this process represents a sustainable alternative for CWW treatment and valorization, as well as a green tool for generating carbohydrate-rich biomass with potential to produce biofuels and fertilizers.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist (GnRH-ant) regimen and GnRH agonist (GnRH-a) short regimen for patients with poor ovarian response (POR).
Methods: A total of 951 cycles for patients with POR who underwent in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF–ET) in the Reproductive and Genetic Center of The People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from January 2016 to June 2022 were recruited for this retrospective analysis. There were 659 oocyte retrieval cycles in the GnRH-ant regimen group and 269 cycles in theGnRH-a short regimen group. There were 233 embryo transfercycles in the GnRH-ant regimen group and 100 cycles in theGnRH-a short regimen group. The general situations, treatment outcomes and costs of the two groups were compared.
Results: There was no significant difference in the general situation, pregnancy outcome, total oocyte retrieval cost or total embryo transplantation cost between the two groups. However, the oocyte retrieval cost/oocyte retrievalcycle, high-quality embryo cost/oocyte retrieval cycle, and transferable embryo cost/oocyte retrieval cycle in the GnRH-ant regimen group were higher than those in the GnRH-a short regimen group, while the clinical pregnancy cost/embryo transfer cycle and ongoing pregnancy cost/embryo transfer cycle in the GnRH-ant regimen group were lower than those in the GnRH-a short regimen group.
Conclusion: Both the GnRH-ant regimen and GnRH-a short regimen are effective ovulation induction regimens for POR patients, and there is no significant difference in clinical efficacy between the two groups. However, in terms of pregnancy outcome, the GnRH-ant regimen is more favorable and has more economic advantages.

Abstract
The use of alternative energy sources, particularly solar energy, in buildings is rising and spreading around the globe. In this paper, a solar wall is analyzed using a numerical method. On the wall, a number of obstacles are placed in two shapes, rectangular (REC) and semicircular (SEC). The cavities are filled with organic phase-change materials. This study was performed in a 7-hour period in the absence of solar radiation on the wall for different dimensions of obstacles in 5 different modes. Various temperatures, including exhaust air temperature (TAR), Trombe wall temperature (TWL), and mean volume % of molten PCM in cavities, have been investigated. COMSOL software is used to carry out this numerical study. The results of this study showed that the use of SECs compared to RECs causes the TWL to be higher. In the most extreme case, at a 16 cm aspect ratio, the use of SECs gives a 2.1 ° C increase in TWL relative to the REC one. The outlet TAR is also increased by the usage of SECs. The use of larger dimensions of the cavities has increased the TAR leaving the wall so that the TAR after 7 hours of the absence of solar radiation, in the largest case of SECs, was more than 295.5 Kelvin. The use of SECs also increases the PCM freezing time. In the largest case of cavities, the use of SECs increases the freezing time by 15 minutes compared to RECs.

Abstract
Machine learning algorithms have recently attracted more attention in the medical field and have been successfully used in a variety of medical applications. Machine learning is used to assist medical practitioners to solve complicated problems. Thus to function autonomously without seeking any assistance or help from a person, a well-known branch of machine learning called deep learning completes several related tasks parallely. It is successfully used in a variety of applications, including disease prediction and disease progression. Since tasks are assumed to be related to one another, existing learning methods adapts the Convolution neural network (CNN) to classify the diabetes mellitus disease effectively. To detect the abnormality, the proposed work uses a deep learning network that includes a novel CNN model that splits the data into separate training and testing sets before doing classification. Using CNN, the proposed work achieves better accuracy and outperforms well to the best of our knowledge.
Effects of micro-plastics in non-point source pollution on various water sources, sediments, and fishes
Authors: Kim Dokyun , Mo Kyung , Kim Moonil , Cui Fenghao 
Published: January 2023

Abstract
Detection of micro-plastics (MPs) was performed for various water sources, sediments, and fishes using FTIR, microscopic analysis, and image mapping. To derive correlations between MPs in carp and river crabs in Ansan River (AR), the Pearson correlation coefficients were determined. Carp and river crabs had coefficients of 0.888 and 0.724 AR, respectively. Therefore, AR, carp, and river crabs had a high positive correlation. The MPs detected in sediments were higher than those in main-waterway (MW) and rivers, which was the opposite the MPs in water sources. It is believed that MPs are carried toward shore by ocean tide. The size of most of the sediment MPs was 20-49 µm, representing 64.1% of the entire population. MP pollution by non-point pollution sources (NPS) was investigated, with abundances of MPs between the dry season and rainy season with differences of 2 to 3 times in AR and Ansan River sediment (ARS), respectively. The plastics detected in this study were PET, PP, and PE, which originate from synthetic fibers, scrubs, and packing material. The MPs of various water sources, sediments, fishes, and NPS were detected in this study. It was determined that the inflow of MPs into rivers could have been due to non-point source pollutants from household items, roads, plants, and soil around the water sources.

Published: January 2023

Abstract
Research has focused on examining self-compassion broadly as opposed to examining unique relationships exist between negative and positive components of self-compassion and disordered and emotional eating, especially among adults with overweight/obesity. The current study is a secondary analysis of baseline data from treatment-seeking adults (n = 64; 96.8% female) with overweight/obesity. Correlational analyses revealed that higher emotional eating-depression was associated with lower common humanity, higher over-identification, and higher self-isolation. Greater disordered eating was associated with lower common humanity, higher self-judgment, higher over-identification, and lower self-kindness. No significant bivariate relations were observed between self-compassion facets and binge eating severity and emotional eating-anxiety/anger and -boredom. Regression analyses indicated that self-judgment, over-identification, and self-kindness, together, were significantly related to disordered eating. Common humanity, over-identification, and self-isolation, together, were significantly related to emotional eating-depression. Targeting specific facets of self-compassion might be favorable in treating a range of problematic eating behaviors in people with overweight/obesity.

Abstract

The Earth's climate system is significantly affected by global warming. This study examined the spatiotemporal variations in average and extreme values of relative humidity, temperature, and temperature-humidity index in the northern areas of Iran from 1986 to 2016. The temperature-humidity index was generated for each of the 30 meteorological stations based on relative humidity and temperature data. Previously, trend analysis was calculated in different seasons using ordinary linear and quantile regression methods. For the most part, the results indicate a declining trend in relative humidity and a rising trend in temperature. The highest percentage of decreasing trend slopes for maximum relative humidity (≤-50%) in all seasons, but for maximum temperature, the highest percentage of increasing trend slopes in summer and winter (≥ 30%) identified on the southern coast of the Caspian Sea. However, a decreasing trend (%≤-15) was detected for the maximum temperature in autumn at the northern regions. Average and high values of THI in the summer season (≥ 75) have increased in the western and northern parts with high intensity (≥ 40%). The low values of THI in winter (≤ 30) have increased with a slight slope (20%), which indicates a decline in some of days with cold stress in winter for most regions. The findings of this study are generally useful for identifying changes in weather extremes and their effects on human health.
