AbstractOn 6 February 2023, two large earthquakes with magnitude 7.8 and 7.6 rocked south-central Türkiye and northwestern Syria. At the time of writing, the death toll exceeded 50,000 in Türkiye and 7200 in Syria. The epicenter of the first mainshock was located ∼15 km east of the east Anatolian fault (EAF), the second large earthquake (9 hr later) initiated ∼90 km to the north on the east–west-trending Sürgü fault. Aftershocks delineate fault lengths of ∼350 and ∼170 km, respectively. Using satellite and seismic data for first-order analyses of surface-fault offsets, space–time rupture evolution, and recorded ground motions, our study sheds light on the reasons for the extensive destruction. The first event ruptured the EAF bilaterally, lasted for ∼80 s, and created surface fault offsets of over 6 m. The second event also ruptured bilaterally with a duration of ∼35 s and more than 7 m surface offsets. Horizontal ground accelerations reached locally up to 2g in the first mainshock; severe and widespread shaking occurred in the Hatay-Antakia area with values near 0.5g. Both earthquakes are characterized by directivity effects and abrupt rupture cessation generating stopping phases that contributed to strong seismic radiation. Shaking was further aggravated locally by site-amplification effects.
Does employee trust matter? Measuring the effect of work engagement on turnover intention in the banking sector
Authors: Malik Nazaruddin 
Published: May 2023

Research aims: This study examines the effect of work engagement on the turnover intention with employee trust as a mediating variable in the banking sector in Malang, IndonesiaDesign/Methodology/Approach: This study uses a quantitative approach with data collection methods using questionnaires that were distributed online and processed using Partial Least Square (PLS) using a 119 response data.Research findings: The findings of this study show that work engagement has a negative effect on turnover intention. Employee trust mediated the effect between work engagement and turnover intention.Theoretical contribution/Originality: This study examined the role of employee trust as a mediating variable. Employee trust plays a vital role in maintaining people’s engagement on an organization, affecting low workers' intention to quit from their jobs. The results of this study confirm Maslow's motivational theory if employees are more involved in work and feel fulfilled. Employees will feel comfortable and reduce the level of turnover intention.Practitioner/Policy implication: These findings suggested leaders encourage engagement programs to increase employee trust to reduce turnover intention.Research limitation/Implication: The study had limitations, such as the few samples used and the fact that only Malang's banking industry employees were included.
Importance of soft tissue ?njuries in the facial area in terms of criminal law and compensation for bodily damages
Authors: Dalgic Sertac , Gulderen Abuzer , Cetin Selcuk 
Published: May 2023

Skin injuries in the face area are one of the common causes of admission to the emergency department and the treatment to be applied affects whether or not there will be any scars. In the legal system, fixed facial scar is given great importance and it is an aggravating factor in criminal law. However, it is seen that the permanent scars formed on the face as a result of trauma do not have an exact equivalent in the disability determination charts. In our study; in the disability detection regulations, it was tried to determine the deficiencies related to permanent scars in the face area and it was aimed to raise awareness about this issue. We analyzed 1972 cases that applied for disability assessment and were examined and reported by us. With the trauma in his body that is the subject of the report 302 cases with a causal trace were included in the study. It was observed that 212 (70%) of 302 cases with facial trauma-related scars received a rate from one of the disability determination charts. It was determined that 90 (30%) cases did not receive a rate. Conclusion: The emergency physician who first encounters the trauma patient should apply the treatment methods that can achieve the best aesthetic results in a patient who is admitted to the hospital due to facial injury and take all kinds of measures to reduce the possibility of remaining scars. We think that there should be a section that specifies exactly the rate to be given by classifying permanent scar wounds in the face area according to various features, by updating the scales used in disability determination procedures.
La responsabilidad de proteger y el derecho internacional público: consideraciones sobre la licitud del uso de la fuerza por motivos humanitarios ante la falta de autorización del Consejo de Seguridad de la ONU
Authors: Pacheco de Freitas José A. 
Published: May 2023

Frente a las graves crisis humanitarias y a las masivas violaciones a los derechos humanos de las últimas tres décadas, la responsabilidad de proteger ha sido presentada como una nueva doctrina —una versión menos agresiva de la intervención humanitaria— que permitiría a la comunidad internacional enfrentar dichas situaciones. Sin embargo, existe un conflicto entre la prohibición general del uso de la fuerza y la aplicación de la nueva doctrina cuando no haya una autorización del Consejo de Seguridad de la ONU. En este trabajo se analiza el alcance y pertinencia de la responsabilidad de proteger, desde la perspectiva del derecho internacional público, y se concluye que debe ser tratada dentro del marco de la Carta de la ONU y de la prohibición general del uso de la fuerza. El fortalecimiento del Consejo de Seguridad y de los regímenes pertinentes es la mejor manera de enfrentar estas crisis, mientras que desde el derecho internacional público vigente una nueva excepción a la prohibición general —como podría ser la responsabilidad de proteger— no parece ser una alternativa apropiada, ni lícita.
Coronavirus media exposure effects on psychological well-being, lifestyle changes, and gender differences in North Macedonia's adult population
Authors: Luma Nita Beluli , Sinani Arsim 
Published: May 2023

During the coronavirus global pandemic, many followed the news to seek as much information as possible to feel in control. These behaviors ultimately have a negative effect. As a result of excessively following the news, one increases anxiety by believing that one can control what might come or be prepared for it in the future. The main aim of this study is to examine the correlation between following the news too much, referring to the coronavirus outbreak of COVID-19, and the presence of anxiety and depressive symptoms in the adult population in North Macedonia. Mental health, anxiety, and depression were assessed through questionnaires administered to all participants. The survey included 900 adult respondents, ranging in age from 19 to 71+. The respondents were citizens of North Macedonia. The study proved that people who spend too much time following the news, not only on TV but also adding information throughout the internet daily, experience more anxiety and depressive symptoms.

Authors: Aprillya Mala Rosa , Suryani Erma 
Published: May 2023

Background: The food security policy is an effort to ensure stable food availability and stable access of the community to food. As the population increases, this will affect the fulfillment of food needs in the future. Therefore, increase in rice production is needed to support food security.
Objective: Conduct an analysis of the factors affecting the quality of rice production by using a dynamic system simulation that can be used as a basis for formulating policy strategies.
Method: Simulation using System Dynamics (SD) is a method used to study and analyze complex systems by modeling non-linear behavior. Then several scenarios were carried out for the best decision-making using a computer.
Result: The results of the scenario show that increasing the quality of paddy production in order to meet food needs in the future is doable by boosting the rendement of paddy as it will upgrade rice production which will contribute greatly to rice production.
Conclusion: From the simulation results, the study can be used to increase the quality of rice production to maintain food security by improving the harvesting mechanism to increase yields. For further research, the use of Smart Agriculture can be considered to increase production of rice.

Outcomes and Patient Satisfaction of Delayed Distal Biceps Repairs without Graft Augmentation
Authors: Tzeuton Serge , Johns William , Campbell Benjamin , Hammoud Sommer , Ciccotti Michael G. , Namdari Surena 
Published: May 2023

Background:
Distal biceps tendon tears are responsible for 3% to 10% of all biceps ruptures. Treated nonoperatively, these injuries result in poor endurance, loss of supination strength, and loss of flexion strength compared with those treated operatively with repair or reconstruction. When presenting in a chronic fashion, operative management can involve graft reconstruction or primary repair. When there is adequate tendon excursion and quality, primary repair is preferred. The purpose of this systematic review was to investigate the literature regarding outcomes of direct surgical repair of chronic distal biceps tendon ruptures.

Methods:
The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines were followed to perform this systematic review and for the presentation of results. A search of the literature was performed on the electronic database Medline, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library. Included studies evaluated subjective and objective outcomes after delayed treatment (≥4 weeks postinjury) for chronic distal biceps tendon ruptures, without use of graft augmentation. Subjective and objective outcome metrics such as functional scores, range of motion, strength, pain level, and return to employment were collected.

Results:
Eight studies were reviewed. The studies included 124 patients with chronic distal biceps tendon tears, treated surgically after a mean delay to surgery of 121.8 days. Four studies included comparison of patients with acute and chronic tears, whereas the other 4 studies assessed chronic tears only. The findings of these 4 studies suggest that direct repair of chronic tears is correlated with a mildly higher rate of lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve (LABCN) injury palsy (10/82 [12.1%] chronic vs. 3/38 [7.9%] acute, p = 0.753); however, this complication was overwhelmingly transient. There were only 3 reported reruptures (3.19%) across 5 studies reporting this complication. Overall, patients who had undergone direct repair of chronic distal biceps tears had good patient satisfaction, outcomes, and range of motion.

Conclusion:
Direct repair of chronic distal biceps tendon tears without the use of graft reconstruction is associated with acceptable patient satisfaction, range of motion, and functional outcome scores, although transient LABCN palsy rates may be slightly higher. When sufficient residual tendon is present in the setting of chronic distal biceps rupture, direct repair is a viable treatment option. However, the existing literature regarding direct repair of chronic distal biceps repair is limited, and further prospective assessment directly comparing primary repair vs. reconstruction of chronic distal biceps ruptures is warranted.

Temporal variation of floral reward can improve the pollination success of a rare flowering plant
Authors: Benadi Gita , Kögel Raphael , Lämsä Juho , Gegear Robert J. 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Many pollinating animals visit a variety of flowering plant species. Rare plant species pollinated by such generalists may experience a low quality or quantity of pollination, depending on the pollinators' foraging behaviour. How plants cope with this rarity disadvantage is not well understood. One possibility would be to offer a higher floral reward, for example a higher nectar sugar concentration. However, since nectar production is costly, rare plants may only be able to increase their nectar concentration for a limited time and offer little reward afterwards. In this study we performed a laboratory experiment with bumblebees (Bombus terrestris) foraging on artificial flowers of two colours to investigate whether the bees' foraging behaviour produces a rarity disadvantage and if so, whether the rare flower type could improve its pollination success through temporal variation of its nectar sugar concentration, i.e. a temporary increase of nectar sugar followed by a period with low concentration. We found that when both flower colours offered equal rewards, the rare colour received only slightly fewer visits per flower, but had a considerably lower expected pollination success based on the bumblebees' visitation sequences. Temporal variation of the rare colour's sugar concentration increased both the quantity and quality of visits it received. This positive effect was reduced when there were fewer rare flowers or when two bumblebees foraged simultaneously. Our results suggest that temporal variation of floral rewards can alleviate, but not completely eliminate the rarity disadvantage.

Authors: Chevalier Kevin , Rahli Djamila , de Veyrac Louise , Guillaume Jessica , Obadia Michaël Alexandre , Poujois Aurélia 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Background Wilson's disease (WD) is an autosomal recessive genetic disorder due to a mutation of the ATP7B gene, resulting in impaired hepatic copper excretion and accumulation in various tissues. Lifelong decoppering treatments are the keystone of the treatment. These treatments can prevent, stabilize, or reverse the symptoms making WD a chronic disease. Quality of life (QoL) is one of the best outcome measures of any therapeutic intervention in chronic diseases but has not been evaluated in large cohorts of WD patients.Method To better evaluate the QoL in WD and the correlation with different clinical or demographic factors we have performed a prospective cross-sectional study.Results Two hundred fifty-seven patients (53.3% men, mean age of 39.3 years and median disease duration of 18.8 years) were included between 1st January 2021 and 31st December 2021. Hepatoneurological form of the disease and depression were significantly correlated with low QoL (p < 0.001 for both). Nevertheless, the QoL of the patients was close to that of the general population and only 29 patients (11.3%) had a moderate to severe depression.Conclusions Neurological patients should be closely monitored to prevent and treat symptoms of depression that impact their quality of life.

Published: May 2023

Abstract
Background: Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) is a rare, autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease characterised by the progressive loss of motor function and severe decline in cognitive function. Palliative care is the only option for most patients with the disease eventually leading to premature death. Three UK-based MLD patient organisations commissioned an online survey, and follow-up semi-structured interviews open to MLD patients or caregivers, aged 18 years and over to better understand the impact of MLD.
Results: A total of 24 patients were included in the survey: thirteen late infantile (LI), six early juvenile (EJ), two late juvenile (LJ) and three adult onset (AO). Six patients had received gene therapy and one had received a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Our study revealed that MLD patients receiving no disease modifying treatment suffered from a great range and severity of symptoms, and required numerous medications, surgical interventions, and home adaptations. All early-onset patients (LI and EJ) were wheelchair dependent, and tube fed, with all EJ patients having lost all speech. The Parents of an EJ patient described how their child suffered with MLD: “She's been tortured, basically. She is. That's what the disease is doing to her. It’s torturing her little body. And we had to sit and watch that. We have to sit and watch it. And other than cuddling her and giving her meds, there’s just nothing we can… And I’d swap places with her.” Patients treated with gene therapy or HSCT were more mobile and were able to eat normally and two thirds of the children were able to attend mainstream school.
Conclusions: The impact of illness that patients and their caregivers faced was extensive, and the level of care, amount of medication, number of hospital visits and educational support required were substantial. Financial constraints often brought about by inability to work also placed considerable strain on families. Palliative care is the only current option for most patients and some symptoms of MLD are extremely challenging to manage. There is a need for greater awareness of the disease burden faced by patients and their caregivers, and the resources required to support these families.

Published: May 2023

Abstract
Accuracy requirements and data sources grow in tandem with advancements in GIS and remote sensing applications. In high advancement of GIS and Remote sensing application, the source of data is another problem going with parallel to them. The significance of geospatial data source is valuable worldwide. Especially some developing countries which don’t have their own satellite for image source have more faced the problem. This problem directly hinders the research that can be conducted by using this data. Ethiopia is one of the countries that countered with problems about this scarcity of geospatial and digital data sources. However, there is abundant of high resolution Google Earth imagery of different area temporal data used as an alternatives of geospatial data source, which requires examining its positional accuracy assessment, for further use as alternative geospatial data sources. In this paper Google Earth image of 2009 and IKONOS 2004 Satellite image of Adama city were tested horizontal positional accuracy level using the Orthophoto high accuracy image. The assessment includes points, lines and polygon samples for positional accuracy testing. For the point samples, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) in X_ coordinate of Google Earth was 2.66ft/ 0.813m and IKONOS satellite image was 11.263ft/ 3.433m. The Y_coordinate Google Earth was 1.296 ft/0.395m and IKONOS satellite image was 3.806ft/1.160m. The horizontal line shift of Google Earth is 3.541ft/ 1.079m; IKONOS was 4.097m/ 13.442ft. The area difference of Google Earth was 4.219sqft/ 0.392sqm, and the IKONOS image was 13.347sqft/1.24sqm and all these samples are taken considering the slope characteristics of the study area.
Diversity and association mapping assessment of an untouched native grapevine genetic resource by iPBS retrotransposon markers
Authors: Güler Emrah , Karadeniz Turan , Özer Göksel , Uysal Tamer 
Published: May 2023

Abstract
Grape is one of the most produced horticultural crops, being one of the oldest domesticated plants that undergo genetic differentiation due to the natural crossing, bud mutations, and the effect of the continuously changing demand for wine types and table grapes. Recognition and discrimination of autochthonous varieties are the first steps for breeding studies. In this study, an autochthonous grapevine population was recognized by iPBS (Inter primer binding sites) retrotransposon markers and the genetic relationships with some other varieties from Turkey and Europe. The trait-associated loci were determined by GLM (general linear model) and MLM (mixed linear model) analysis. Eight iPBS markers generated 136 loci, of which 106 were polymorphic. The neighbor-joining method clustered the genotypes and standard varieties into three main and seven subclusters. Structure analysis also grouped the grapes into seven populations. Molecular variance analysis showed that the variability occurred mainly among individuals. In the association mapping, 36 loci were correlated with quantitative traits in GLM, whereas 21 loci were correlated in MLM. A remarkable diversity among the autochthonous grape population, even among the same-named individuals, was determined by diversity assessments. Distinct genotypes with desired characteristics will be valuable in breeding studies. The loci determined by both mapping approaches might help to create functional markers to select genotypes with the desired traits.

Abstract
Reinforced concrete is a common construction material used to support structures around the world. However, the durability of concrete is affected by weathering action, abrasion, and chemical attack and this may lead to reduction in desired material properties necessary to support structures. Electromigration is the transport of material in a conductor under the influence of an applied electric field. All conductors are susceptible to electromigration, therefore it is important to consider the effects the electrical current resulting from the applied field may have on the conductor. The net force exerted on a single metal ion in a conductor has two opposing contributions: a direct force and wind force. Electrochemical engineering is the branch of chemical engineering dealing with the technological applications of electrochemical phenomena, such as electrosynthesis of chemicals, electrowinning and refining of metals, flow batteries and fuel cells, surface modification by electrodeposition, electrochemical separations and corrosion. This paper presents results of two small-scale tests using electromigration process as a means of transporting nanosilica to recover cement matrix integrity of aged concrete samples extracted from a 40 years old structure. A set up with two vessel was proposed, with electrical font working for 24 hours generating transportation of nanosilica into the aged concrete samples. The success of the electromigration process was verified with electronic microscope (qualitative analysis), scanning electronic microscope, and X ray dispersive energy spectroscopy. The results showed that an electromigration of nanosilica into the cement matrix occurred and resulted in reduction of micro fissures. Additionally, deposition of silica on the sample surface was observed. Reduction of calcium in the matrix was verified with the development of hydrated calcium silicate, providing the recovery of cement matrix in increasing cement mechanical properties like strength and also decreasing the porosity of the concrete matrix.
