Abstract
The significance of control increases with the push towards improving the overall effectiveness of the health insurance system. In order for public resources to be spent lawfully and effectively, there needs to be increased control not only from the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF), but citizen control also needs to be incorporated in the process.

Materials and Methods
The goal of this survey is to analyze the opportunities for implementing citizen control over the spending of public health funds and compare them to the real conditions as far as the outpatient medical care level. Legislation and news from NHIF’s webpage related to citizen control opportunities were studied. A direct, anonymous survey was carried out on the Google forms platform amongst Bulgarian citizens past the age of majority.

Results
The results of the questionnaire survey carried out between 24.06.2022 and 16.10.2022 among 1045 adults with compulsory health insurance from all over the country, showed that they were poorly informed on the opportunities for citizen control which have been regulated and created in practice and don’t take advantage of them. Only 45,6% of the participants were aware of the digital services “Record review for health-insured persons”, which is found on NHIF’s webpage, and less than half of them (42,8%) used this service. The NHIF’s mobile application for feedback was used by as little as 11,8% of the respondents, and only seven patients have used it to share an opinion, while nine have used it to get notifications for data changes in their patient record. The portion of participants who have taken part in NHIF inquiries was also very small – 2,5%. Merely 2,8% have posted a complaint to the NHIF after being denied medical services.

Conclusions
All of this makes it evident that a change is necessary in order for citizen control to be strengthened as a mechanism. This will lead to the correction of proven deviations in reported medical activities and will make it easier to get the patients’ opinions on the medical care they have been provided with.

Published: May 2023

Abstract
Psoriasis represents a chronic autoimmune disease of great interest as its incidence has increased over the last decades. It encompasses a multitude of subtypes with various manifestations and complications. Erythrodermic psoriasis represents one of the most severe forms of the disease and is characterized by the appearance of a generalized erythematous rash on top of pre-existing lesions.
We present the case of a 71-year-old patient with history of arthropathic psoriasis who is admitted to the dermatovenerology clinic for deterioration of his general condition, exacerbated pre-existing cardiovascular conditions, a diffuse generalized erythematous skin rash, pronounced leg edema and nail changes. After following topical and systemic treatment, the patient was discharged in an improved condition. Two weeks later the woman is found dead in their home. An autopsy was performed and the necropsy examination describes the skin lesions presented before but in an aggravated form and the histopathological examination establishes the cause of death which is represented by acute heart failure, the consequence of lymphocytic interstitial myocarditis.
The particularity of the case is represented by the simultaneous exacerbation of cardiac and skin pathology, both having autoimmune components and an inflammatory substrate.
An Energy-Aware QoS Load Balance Scheduling Using Hybrid GAACO Algorithm for Cloud
Authors: Ilankumaran Arivumathi , Narayanan Swathi Jamjala 
Published: May 2023

AbstractIn recent days, resource allocation is considered to be a complex task in cloud systems. The heuristics models will allocate the resources efficiently in different machines. Then, the fitness function estimation plays a vital role in cloud load balancing, which is mainly used to minimize power consumption. The optimization technique is one of the most suitable options for solving load-balancing problems. This work mainly focuses on analyzing the impacts of using the Genetic Algorithm and Ant Colony Optimization (GAACO) technique for obtaining the optimal solution to efficiently balance the loads across the cloud systems. In addition to that, the GA and ACO are the kinds of object heuristic algorithms being proposed in the work to increase the number of servers that are operated with better energy efficiency. In this work, the main contribution of the GAACO algorithm is to reduce energy consumption, makespan time, response time, and degree of imbalance.

Abstract
Around the world, large amounts of plastic and glass waste have been collected. This work is given as a way to reduce this material. This paper aims to investigate how fired clay bricks' physical and mechanical properties are affected by plastic/glass (P/G) powder. It is used as a replacement for clay, varying the plastic/glass content 00/20, 05/15, 10/10, 15/05, and 20/00 weight %. The ratio of soil to water remains constant 0.3. The maximum temperature is presented after three fire phases. The temperatures are 300 °C for the first, 600 °C for the second, and 900 °C for the third. Results for the physical properties showed an increase in the water absorption of clay brick specimens as the plastic content increased; in addition, efflorescence was increased with plastic powder. However, the density and firing shrinkage decrease with plastic quantity. Also, the experimental results showed a decrease in water absorption and efflorescence when the glass powder was increased. While the density is higher when glass powder is 20 %. According to the findings on mechanical properties, clay brick samples with higher plastic powder content 20 % displayed a decrease in compressive strength and flexural bending strength, i. e. the mechanical properties (compressive and flexural strengths) are increased with the increased

Published: May 2023

Abstract
The paper presents the results of the shear strength measurements of a soil-geosynthetic interface. The tests were executed using a large-size direct shear test apparatus. A total of 5 different samples of materials were tested, i.e., ash, sand, well-graded gravel, fine poorly-graded gravel, and medium poorly-graded gravel. These materials were reinforced using different types of geosynthetics, i.e., Thrace WG80 black woven geotextile, Tencate Miragrid GX55/30 woven geogrid, and Thrace TG3030S rigid polypropylene geogrid. An interface coefficient α, which represents the ratio of the soil-geosynthetic interface shear strength to the shear strength of unreinforced material sample, was determined for given combination of the material and geosynthetics. The coefficient α reached a greater value in the critical stress state than in the peak stress state for sands and gravels reinforced using GX55/30 and TG3030S geogrids. The value of the coefficient α was in a range of 0.87 - 1.04 for gravels and 1.03 - 1.19 for sand. The black woven geotextile was used as the reinforcement only in samples of sand and ash. The results pointed to the different behaviour of these materials in the testing of the interface shear strength.

Abstract
Rainfall interception process is an important part of the biohydrological cycle, in which vegetation plays an important role by regulating the amount and dynamics of rainfall reaching the ground. In this paper, an event-based analysis is performed to discuss the influence of vegetation on dynamic of temporal response of soil volumetric water content (VWC) in the upper soil layer during rainfall events. More specifically, six events that occurred between 19 November 2021 and 30 June 2022, characterized by different hydro-meteorological and vegetation conditions, are analyzed based on continuous measurements of VWC in the open and below groups of two deciduous (Betula pendula Roth.) and two coniferous trees (Pinus nigra Arnold), as well as rainfall in the open and throughfall on an urban experimental plot in Ljubljana, Slovenia. VWC values at the upper depth (16 cm) were the highest under the birch tree, followed by the location in the open and under the pine tree. However, in the lowest depth (74 cm) VWC values were the lowest under the birch tree. VWC responses to rainfall and throughfall showed seasonal patterns related to the pre-event wetness conditions, with a faster occurrence of maximum VWC values in the leafless period. Additionally, rainfall amount and its dynamics during the event significantly affect the response, as VWC in general reaches its peak after the occurrence of more intense rainfall. Such an event-based analysis, offering an insight into the dynamics of the event development, is crucial and very beneficial for understanding of the biohydrological processes.

Published: May 2023

Abstract
In an economy facing multiple crises (economic, pandemic, energy crisis, political and security crises) becomes necessary to determine the implications of fiscal changes on the economy’s evolution. This paper aimed to assess the link between taxation and economic growth in the European Union Member States, considering panel data for the period 2000-2021 to identify taxation’s specific implications on economic growth. The methodological endeavour encompassed both qualitative and quantitative research approaches. The qualitative analysis of the study involved a bibliometric analysis of the existing literature and visual mapping of the bibliographic data employed to highlight the differences between the values of the variables recorded in the EU countries. The quantitative research methodology assumed the empirical analysis through a panel data regression with fixed and random effects to identify the reaction of the growth rate of the gross domestic product to changes in direct and indirect taxes. Our results indicate a relationship between taxation and economic growth, depending on the tax type. We have identified a direct relationship in the case of taxes on the income or profits of corporations, including holding gains and value-added taxes and an indirect relationship in the case of taxes on individual or household income including holding gains and other taxes on production. In addition, the impact of indirect taxes is more significant. These specific relationships influence the change in fiscal policies in response to economic shocks.

Published: May 2023

Abstract
This study focused on the influence of cash turnover, receivables turnover, and inventory turnover against the Net Profit Margin (NPM), showing the inequality of the results of previous studies. Therefore, this research investigates whether that inequality is associated with cash turnover, receivables turnover, and supply turnover against NPM, which becomes the focus of this study. The research used the data obtained from food and beverage manufacturing subsectors in the Southeast Asian Stock Exchange between 2012 and 2018. This study applied purposive sampling of 11 companies that provided a complete financial report, acquiring 77 samples. The statistical analyses used were multiple linear regression, partial testing, and simultaneous testing. The results of this study indicated that cash turnover and receivables turnover had no significant influence on the NPM, while the supply turnover had a significant influence on NPM. The results of the simulta-neous study of cash turnover, the turnover of receivables, and inventory turnover have a signif-icant rate of 0.010 < 0.05. It can be concluded that cash turnover, turnover receivables, and inventory rotation significantly influence the NPM.

Для оценки частоты встречаемости патологии шейки матки по данным цитологии и изучения их взаимосвязи с выявлением вируса папилломы человека (ВПЧ) проведен анализ цитологического исследования цервикальных мазков методом жидкостной цитологии и тестированием на вирус папилломы человека у 92 женщин Алданского района Республики Саха (Якутия). Отмечено преобладание в образцах NILM по сравнению с интраэпителиальными поражениями шейки матки. Плоскоклеточные интраэпителиальные поражения низкой степени (LSIL) были выявлены в 15 случаях и составили 62,5% от общего числа всех дисплазий. 7 женщин имели поражения высокой степени (HSIL) и составил 29,2% от всех дисплазий. По 1 (2,9%) случаю была диагностирована атипия неясного генеза (ASCUS) и атипичные клетки плоского эпителия, не позволяющие исключить HSIL (ASC-H). При сопоставлении возрастных групп у женщин до 45 лет LSIL встречалась в 1,5 раза чаще, чем у женщин в возрасте 45 лет и выше, а HSIL – в 1,3 раза. Заключение ASCUS и ASC-H было диагностировано в возрасте до 45 лет по 1 случаю (4,1% соответственно). Среди ВПЧ-позитивных тестов в преобладающем количестве наиболее часто отмечены ВПЧ 6 и 68 типов. Показано, что инфицированность вирусом папилломы человека больше в группе молодых женщин до 45 лет и несколько снижается после 45 лет.
The analysis of cytological examination was conducted by the liquid-based cytology and human papillomavirus test among 92 women living in Aldan District of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). It helps to study the relation between of the incidence of cervical pathology according to cytology data and the detection of human papillomavirus (HPV). The predominance of NILM in the samples compared with intraepithelial lesions of the cervix was noted. Low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSIL) were detected in 15 cases and accounted for 62.5% of the total number of all dysplasias. 7 women had high-grade lesions (HSIL) and accounted for 29.2% of all dysplasias. Atypia of undetermined significance (ASCUS) and Atypical Squamous Cells cannot exclude HSIL (ASC-H) were diagnosed in 1 (2.9%) case. When comparing age groups, LSIL was 1.5 times more common in women under 45 than in women aged 45 and older, and HSIL was 1.3 times more common. ASCUS and ASC-H were diagnosed at the age of 45 in 1 case (4.1%, resp). HPV of 6 and 68 types are the most common in the vast number of HPV-positive tests. It has been shown that human papillomavirus infection is higher in the group of young women under 45 years of age and decreases somewhat after 45 years.

Na história de Star Wars, em que pese a República Galáctica tenha instituído um ordenamento jurídico universal, há planetas com leis próprias, direitos não-oficiais, em um exemplo claro de pluralismo jurídico. Na contemporaneidade, é possível constatar que, assim como no filme, os atuais modelos de direito não conseguem mais abranger a todos os problemas presentes na sociedade, motivo pelo qual se faz necessária uma matriz teórica capaz de analisar esse fenômeno. Diante disso, tem-se que a problemática do presente estudo está relacionada ao fato das Constituições não darem mais conta dos acontecimentos sociais, motivo que tornariam necessárias as suas Fragmentações, a fim de abarcar os diversos acontecimentos do mundo globalizado. Busca-se, portanto analisar de que forma o referencial teórico de Gunter Tubner e o Senado Galáctico, sistema esse presente na série de filmes Star Wars, em especial na segunda trilogia de George Lucas, podem ser associados. Nessa toada, tem-se que o cenário de Star Wars pode ser analisado como o exemplo perfeito de uma sociedade global, bem como analogamente o contexto dessa obra cinematográfica pode estar presente na realidade social atual. Por fim, tem-se que para a concretização deste estudo optou-se, pela realização de uma pesquisa com abordagem qualitativa, utilizando-se, ainda, como método de pesquisa o observativo-sistêmica.
ENERGY FUTURES AND CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION: A QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT IN THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS PERSPECTIVE
Authors: Alloisio Isabella , Zucca Andrea , Carrara Samuel 
Published: May 2023

The 2030 Agenda – with its seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) – and the Paris Agreement represent a turning point for Sustainable Development. For the first time, the world’s leaders have developed an integrated sustainable agenda and ratified a global agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, recognizing that the current development model is not sustainable from an economic, social and environmental standpoint. Sustainable energy, being the driver of social and economic growth, will play a crucial role in the achievement of the 2030 Agenda objectives and for closing the gap to the mitigation targets of 2°C and 1.5°C defined by the Paris Agreement.This paper aims at showing that SDG 7 – the SDG dedicated to energy – can be considered as an enabling factor for the implementation of the other SDGs, and in particular of SDG 13, the goal on climate action. This relation is bidirectional, meaning that mitigation of climate change is positively driven by the deployment of sustainable energy services, and that the integration of climate change mitigation strategies into national policies positively contributes to the deployment of sustainable energy solutions. The paper also shows that future energy scenarios, compatible with the above-mentioned ambitious mitigation targets, are in line with the SDG 7 Targets that can benefit from the strong technology innovation that those scenarios will require. The digitalization of the electricity sector through smart meters for demand side management and smart grids for distributed renewable generation is one example of the role of technology innovation toward SDG 7.
INTEGRACIÓN DE LOS MENORES EXTRANJEROS NO ACOMPAÑADOS EN LA UNIÓN EUROPEA A PARTIR DE LOS DERECHOS HUMANOS, EL PACTO SOCIAL Y LA COLABORACIÓN CIUDADANA

En la hégira de la inmigración los niños y adolescentes transitan especialmente desprotegidos en la búsqueda de un mejor futuro, no pasan sólo de un país a otro, de una lengua, una cultura y una sociedad a otra, también y este hecho es quizás el más determinante, pasan de la infancia a la edad adulta con todas las implicaciones, sociales, jurídicas y políticas que ello representa, fuera del margen de lo normal, de lo habitual, en los que sus referentes familiares, sociales y culturales no están presentes. Ese transitar de los niños y adolescentes trágicamente sólos, se expresa como una categoría jurídica de naturaleza “performativa” cuya realidad jurídica se construye a partir del término “menores extranjeros no acompañados” (MENAS) cuyo contenido emocional y axiológico es significativamente distinto que el de un “menor de edad sólo”. Partiendo de esta cuestión y siendo el ámbito europeo campeón en la defensa de la dignidad de la persona y abanderado en la lucha por los derechos humanos, también de los derechos de los niños, a continuación, reflexionamos sobre las posibles soluciones que aporta la legislación de Europa a través de una propuesta de integración social antes de obtener la mayoría de edad para dar solución a posibles necesidades que plantea el paso a la edad adulta. En cumplimiento de la protección jurídica que provee la integración de los menores no acompañados en los países de la Unión Europa, y la consecuente independencia económica que representa la inserción laboral, se propone a partir de la vanguardista legislación española en la materia, dar soluciones desde la dialéctica de los derechos para resolver las necesidades de aquellos menores que han alcanzado la mayoría de edad y que todavía no están integrados en los países de acogida. Para ello se plantea el desarrollo de servicios fundamentales para las situaciones de emergencia que requieren la colaboración de todos los integrantes de la sociedad civil y la suya es una más. Esta propuesta supondría una participación e integración de los que han sido MENAS en las sociedades europeas cumpliéndose el objetivo de optar por la ciudadanía europea, que se nutre de la riqueza cultural y humana de jóvenes que quieren formar parte del acervo comunitario.
