description: In this work, we aimed to synthesize and characterize a novel tetra-directional ligand“(2E,2'E)-2,2′-((((2-(1,3-bis(4-((E)-(2-carbamothioylhydrazono)methyl)phenoxy)propan-2-ylidene)propane-1,3-diyl)bis(oxy))bis(4,1-phenylene))bis(methanylylidene))bis(hydrazinecar-bothioamide)” (5) including thiosemicarbazone group and its novel tetra-directional-tetra-nuclear Schiff base complexes. For this purpose, we used 1,4-dibromo-2,3-bis(bromomethyl)but-2-ene (2) as starting material. 4,4′-((2-(1,3-bis(4-formylphenoxy)propan-2-ylidene)propane-1,3-diyl) bis(oxy))dibenzaldehyde (3) was synthesized by the reaction of an equivalent 1,4-dibromo-2,3-bis(bromomethyl)but-2-ene (2) and four equivalent 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde. Then, compound (5) was synthesized in high yield (86%) by a condensation reaction of compound ( 3) with thiosemicarbazide (4). Finally, four novel tetra-nuclear Cr(III) or Fe(III) complexes of compound (5) were synthesized. The synthesized compounds were characterized using elemental analyses, 1H NMR, FT-IR spectrometry, LC-MS (ESI+) and thermal analyses. The metal ratios of the prepared complexes were determined using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer (AAS). We also investigated their effects on the magnetic behaviors of [salen, salophen, Cr(III)/Fe(III)] capped complexes. The complexes were found to be low-spin distorted octahedral Fe(III), and distorted octahedral Cr(III) all bridged by thiosemicarbazone.

description: A fast and efficient synthesis of flavanones from cinnamic acids in three steps has been developed. First, the cinnamic acid was converted to cinnamyol chlorides using SOCl2. The acid chlorides were then treated with substituted phenols in BF3 · OEt2 to furnish corresponding chalcones in 42(75% yields. Base-catalyzed cyclization of the chalcones at room temperature afforded corresponding flavones in 85–95% yields. The conversion of the cinnamic acid derivatives to corresponding chalcones was found to be sensitive to the position and nature of the substituents on the aromatic rings.

description: Agricultural modernisation is a longstanding goal of China’s Party-state. Since the early 2000s, it has pursued this goal through policies designed to facilitate land consolidation and support the expansion of large agricultural enterprises – ‘New Agricultural Operators’ (NAOs). In this paper we explore the effect of these policies on the livelihoods of a cohort of smallholder orange growers in the mountainous regions of Hubei province and the local political economy. An analysis of data from a 2019 survey of 266 households and interviews with villagers, agribusiness executives, cooperative leaders, and government officials, we find smallholder farmers are earning good incomes as independent commodity producers, withstanding attempts by local officials at land consolidation, and bypassing NAOs to self-determine their own modes of production and exchange. Our results speak to the ongoing debate about the future of smallholder farming in China, identify the strengths and limitations of recent state-centric analyses of agrarian transition, and re-iterate the pitfalls of the central government’s agricultural modernisation agenda.

description: Tumor suppressor protein p53 plays a crucial role in maintaining genomic integrity in response to DNA damage. Regulation of translation of p53 mRNA is a major mode of regulation of p53 expression under genotoxic stress. The AU/U-rich element-binding protein HuR has been shown to bind to p53 mRNA 3′UTR and enhance translation in response to DNA-damaging UVC radiation. On the other hand, the microRNA miR-125b is reported to repress p53 expression and stress-induced apoptosis. Here, we show that UVC radiation causes an increase in miR-125b level in a biphasic manner, as well as nuclear cytoplasmic translocation of HuR. Binding of HuR to the p53 mRNA 3′UTR, especially at a site adjacent to the miR-125b target site, causes dissociation of the p53 mRNA from the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) and inhibits the miR-125b-mediated translation repression of p53. HuR prevents the oncogenic effect of miR-125b by reversing the decrease in apoptosis and increase in cell proliferation caused by the overexpression of miR-125b. The antagonistic interplay between miR-125b and HuR might play an important role in fine-tuning p53 gene expression at the post-transcriptional level, and thereby regulate the cellular response to genotoxic stress.

description: The Nagorno-Karabakh conflict involves a set of questions and interests that make it hard to be solved within the framework of current international law. Reportedly, in this long-lasting conflict there were serious violations of international law and international humanitarian law; all parties involved accused each other of war crimes and eventually resorted to the European Court of Human Rights. So far, for such alleged violations, no legal remedy was possible under the current international legal framework, just as there are many issues still on the table relating to the Armenian question. The Law of Nations is – or should be – the set of rules for the international community. Customary and treaty law are the legal means aimed to resolve and prevent disputes between states; they should serve to overcome the law of the jungle. This paper is aimed to scrutinize the legal conundrum of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict by investigating it within the overall context of the Armenian question.

description: In 2014 a violent conflict inflamed Crimea, an autonomous republic within Ukraine, resulting in the destabilization ofregional security. The clash between the government of Kiev and the insurgents led to the annexation of Crimea and Sevastopol by the Russian Federation. This paper traces origins and causes of the conflict and tackles the issue of the right to self-determination and independence, then the question of the recognition of a new state entity, and finally the dissolution by incorporation into another state. Through a comparative analysis of some precedents, this article aims to investigate whether the annexation may be regarded as legal or not under international positive and customary law, what are the remedies available, and the likely outcome of the dispute, ending with some recommendations aimed at a settlement of the crisis.

description: When conducting Bayesian inference, delayed-acceptance (DA) Metropolis–Hastings (MH) algorithms and DA pseudo-marginal MH algorithms can be applied when it is computationally expensive to calculate the true posterior or an unbiased estimate thereof, but a computationally cheap approximation is available. A first accept-reject stage is applied, with the cheap approximation substituted for the true posterior in the MH acceptance ratio. Only for those proposals that pass through the first stage is the computationally expensive true posterior (or unbiased estimate thereof) evaluated, with a second accept-reject stage ensuring that detailed balance is satisfied with respect to the intended true posterior. In some scenarios, there is no obvious computationally cheap approximation. A weighted average of previous evaluations of the computationally expensive posterior provides a generic approximation to the posterior. If only the k-nearest neighbors have nonzero weights then evaluation of the approximate posterior can be made computationally cheap provided that the points at which the posterior has been evaluated are stored in a multi-dimensional binary tree, known as a KD-tree. The contents of the KD-tree are potentially updated after every computationally intensive evaluation. The resulting adaptive, delayed-acceptance [pseudo-marginal] Metropolis–Hastings algorithm is justified both theoretically and empirically. Guidance on tuning parameters is provided and the methodology is applied to a discretely observed Markov jump process characterizing predator–prey interactions and an ODE system describing the dynamics of an autoregulatory gene network.

description: Multilevel structural equation models are increasingly applied in psychological research. With increasing model complexity, estimation becomes computationally demanding, and small sample sizes pose further challenges on estimation methods relying on asymptotic theory. Recent developments of Bayesian estimation techniques may help to overcome the shortcomings of classical estimation techniques. The use of potentially inaccurate prior information may, however, have detrimental effects, especially in small samples. The present Monte Carlo simulation study compares the statistical performance of classical estimation techniques with Bayesian estimation using different prior specifications for a two-level SEM with either continuous or ordinal indicators. Using two software programs (Mplus and Stan), differential effects of between- and within-level sample sizes on estimation accuracy were investigated. Moreover, it was tested to which extent inaccurate priors may have detrimental effects on parameter estimates in categorical indicator models. For continuous indicators, Bayesian estimation did not show performance advantages over ML. For categorical indicators, Bayesian estimation outperformed WLSMV solely in case of strongly informative accurate priors. Weakly informative inaccurate priors did not deteriorate performance of the Bayesian approach, while strong informative inaccurate priors led to severely biased estimates even with large sample sizes. With diffuse priors, Stan yielded better results than Mplus in terms of parameter estimates.

description: Innovations in primary education play a crucial role in shaping the learning experiences of young students, influencing their cognitive development, and preparing them for the challenges of the future. However, the successful implementation of these innovations requires careful consideration of both organizational and pedagogical principles. This article explores the key factors involved in effectively integrating innovations into primary classrooms, emphasizing the importance of strategic planning, teacher professional development, stakeholder engagement, and pedagogical adaptation. Drawing upon current research and best practices, this article offers insights into creating an environment conducive to innovation and fostering student success.

The awareness campaign on energy saving called "petits gestes, grandes économies" and its reception by households in Anyama (Côte d'Ivoire)
Creators: name: SEY Henri Joël
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: The issue of electricity consumption by electronic devices crystallizes attention in Côte d'Ivoire with regard to the 10% increase in the kWh rate in 2024. To allow households to make substantial savings on their electricity bill, the authorities have decided to promote to them actions that avoid energy waste. Therefore, does the awareness campaign on energy saving called "petits gestes, grandes économies" manage to sensitize Ivorian households? Do the latter know, following this campaign, the behaviors to adopt to reduce their electricity consumption? Based on an empirical survey, this research studies the reception of this awareness campaign by Anyama households. A questionnaire for this purpose was submitted to about 100 households established in this territory. The analysis of results structured around the assessment of the level of electricity consumption of households and their knowledge of energy saving behaviours, we have been able to identify the shortcomings of this campaign, which is struggling to raise awareness about electricity consumption.

description: Parental care often produces a trade-off between meeting nutritional demands of offspring and the duties of offspring protection, especially in altricial species. Parents have to leave their young unattended for foraging trips, during which nestlings are exposed to predators. We investigated how rodent mothers of altricial young respond to risk of nest predation in their foraging decisions. We studied foraging behavior of lactating bank voles (Myodes glareolus) exposed to a nest predator, the common shrew (Sorex araneus). We conducted the experiment in summer (high resource provisioning for both species) and autumn (less food available) in 12 replicates with fully crossed factors “shrew presence” and “season.” We monitored use of feeding stations near and far from the nest as measurement of foraging activity and strategic foraging behavior. Vole mothers adapted their strategies to shrew presence and optimized their foraging behavior according to seasonal constraints, resulting in an interaction of treatment and season. In summer, shrew presence reduced food intake from feeding stations, while it enhanced intake in autumn. Shrew presence decreased the number of visited feeding stations in autumn and concentrated mother’s foraging efforts to fewer stations. Independent of shrew presence or season, mothers foraged more in patches further away from the nest than near the nest. Results indicate that females are not investing in nest guarding but try to avoid the accumulation of olfactory cues near the nest leading a predator to the young. Additionally, our study shows how foraging strategies and nest attendance are influenced by seasonal food provision.

description: Heavy metal pollution in mangrove wetlands has become a growing matter of concern as it serves as sink and source for toxic heavy metals including cadmium (Cd). The present study evaluates the phytostabilization potential of a halophyte, Acanthus ilicifolius L., toward Cd under hydroponic culture conditions. Accumulation, translocation, and effects of Cd on the antioxidant system of A. ilicifolius were studied. Results indicated that A. ilicifolius accumulated Cd mainly in roots (96.4%) as compared to stem (1.4%) and leaves (0.6%) and the accumulated Cd is retained in root rather than being translocated to shoots as indicated by TF < 0.26. Moreover, malondialdehyde (MDA) content increased upon Cd treatment, which is further detoxified by the enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidant mechanism. Antioxidants like proline, ascorbate, and amino acid recorded an increased accumulation in the Cd-treated plants followed by the upregulation of antioxidant enzymes like superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX), and ascorbate peroxidase (APX). Therefore, the rate of sugar accumulation was found to be decreased in plants treated with Cd as compared to the control plants. Thus, having relatively high BCFroot (69.3) and low TFshoot (0.26) values, A. ilicifolius can be suggested as a potential candidate for phytostabilization of Cd in mangrove wetlands.

description: We provide a theory of fire sales in which potential buyers are subject to liquidity shocks and frictions that limit their ability to resell assets. The model predictions align with some stylized facts about the large sales of corporate bonds and Treasury securities during the COVID-19 economic crisis. The equilibrium is constrained efficient under weak conditions that apply if one interprets the key agents in the model as money market funds or mutual funds. Thus, as viewed through the lens of the model, the liquidity requirements proposed by the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission for these intermediaries could hurt the economy.
description: Nous présentons une théorie des liquidations d’actifs dans laquelle les acheteurs potentiels sont assujettis à des chocs de liquidité et à des frictions qui limitent leur capacité à revendre les actifs. Les prévisions du modèle cadrent avec certains faits stylisés liés aux ventes massives d’obligations de sociétés et de titres du Trésor américain pendant la pandémie de COVID-19. L’équilibre est efficace en présence de conditions fragiles qui s’appliquent si l’on considère comme les agents les plus importants du modèle les fonds du marché monétaire ou les fonds communs de placement. Par conséquent, d’après le modèle, les exigences en matière de liquidité que propose la Securities and Exchange Commission des États-Unis (SEC) pour ces intermédiaires pourraient nuire à l’économie.

description: As a green remediation technology, phytoremediation is becoming one of the most promising methods for treating petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs)-contaminated soil. Pot culture experiments were conducted in this study to investigate phytoremediation potential of two representative Iridaceae species (Iris dichotoma Pall. and Iris lactea Pall.) in remediation of petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated saline-alkali soil from the Dagang Oilfield in Tianjin, China. The results showed that I. lactea was more endurable to extremely high concentration of PHCs (about 40,000 mg/kg), with a relatively high degradation rate of 20.68%.The degradation rate of total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPHs) in soils contaminated with 10,000 and 20,000 mg/kg of PHCs was 30.79% and 19.36% by I. dichotoma, and 25.02% and 19.35% by I. lactea, respectively, which improved by 10–60% than the unplanted controls. The presence of I. dichotoma and I. lactea promoted degradation of PHCs fractions, among which saturates were more biodegradable than aromatics. Adaptive specialization was observed within the bacterial community. In conclusion, phytoremediation by I. dichotoma should be limited to soils contaminated with ≤20,000 mg/kg of PHCs, while I. lactea could be effectively applied to phytoremediation of contaminated soils by PHCs with at least 40,000 mg/kg.

description: Hybrid warfare — also known as grey zone conflict or low-intensity conflict — is a reality and political and military leaders must be ready to confront and deter it. There is no common definition of the term and therefore it is correspondingly ambiguous. It is an amorphous definition for an amorphous strategy. While it is a blend of traditional and irregular tactics, hybrid warfare makes overt and covert use of a wide range of tools: military and civilian, conventional and unconventional. Hybrid warfare is an umbrella concept, a form of comprehensive warfare, a strategy, that includes a buquet of tactics, techniques, technologies and methods. Hybrid warfare operations, for which it is difficult to attribute responsibility and which are not specifically regulated by international law, fall below the threshold of armed conflict. Hybrid warfare blurs the lines between peace and war and is therefore questioned whether it should be considered below the threshold of armed conflict. Some hybrid warfare operations are convenient because are located in a twilight zone between peace and war and below the threshold of war and therefore they should not trigger a conventional/kinetic military response. Nevertheless, at the 2014 NATO Summit in Wales, the allies recognized that international law applies in cyberspace and that the impact of cyberattacks could be as harmful as a conventional attack. As a result, cyberdefense was recognized as part of NATO’s core task of collective defense. At the Warsaw Summit in 2016, the allies took further action to recognize cyberspace as a domain of operations just like the "classic" domains of air, land and sea. At the NATO summit held in Brussels in 2021, the allies reaffirmed that a cyber attack could trigger Article 5 of the Atlantic Charter: "an attack on one is an attack on all". This doctrinal position is of no small importance. The question is whether hybrid warfare should be considered an armed attack or use of force that, under treaty and customary international law, could trigger a military response or whether it falls below the threshold of damage and destruction resulting from a kinetic attack. This paper aims to shed light on the consistency of the emerging doctrine on hybrid warfare with current international (humanitarian) law and its possible application.

description: Zusammenfassung Hintergrund und Ziele Der digitale Workflow in der zahnärztlichen Prothetik hat in den letzten Jahren immer mehr an Bedeutung gewonnen. Aufgrund seiner kurzen Historie sind die einzelnen Schritte des di-gitalen Workflows für implantatprothetische Arbeiten in Teilen bis jetzt nicht ausreichend untersucht worden. Der Schritt der digitalen Abformung ist zwar gut untersucht, über den Einfluss nachfolgender Schritte wie die Weiterverarbeitung der Datensätze in der CAD-Software lassen sich jedoch kaum Aussagen treffen. Ziel der vorliegenden Studie war es, diese Frage zu untersuchen. Material und Methoden Ein Titanmodell eines zahnlosen Oberkiefers wurde mit sechs Implantaten an den Regionen der seitlichen Schneidezähne, der ersten Prämolaren und der ersten Molaren beider Quadran-ten versehen. Es wurden zwei verschiedene Scanbodies (Hersteller: Medentika und NT-Trading) verwendet, um die Implantate optisch abzuformen. Ein Masterscan mit einem hoch-präzisen Industriescanner wurde angefertigt und diente als Kontrollmodell. Die Intraoralscans wurden mit drei verschiedenen Intraoralscannern (CEREC Omnicam, Trios3, iTero Element) durchgeführt. Die Intraoralscans wurden als STL-Datei an die CAD-Software Tizian Creative RT exportiert. Hier wurden die Implantatpositionen bestimmt und die virtuellen Modelle wie-derum exportiert. Mittels einer Untersuchungssoftware wurden die Abweichungen der Im-plantatpositionen gegenüber des Masterscans untersucht. Ergebnisse und Beobachtung Die Gesamtabweichungen der verschiedenen Scanner-Scanbody-Kombinationen bewegten sich zwischen 0,080 mm (iTero Element, Medentika) und 0,170 mm (CEREC Omnicam, NT-Trading). Der Scanner iTero Element erreichte unabhängig vom verwendeten Scanbody signi-fikant genauere Ergebnisse als der Scanner Trios3 (p=0,013) und CEREC Omnicam (p=0,001). Es war kein signifikanter Unterschied zwischen den Scannern Trios3 und CEREC Omnicam festzustellen. Im Vergleich mit den Abweichungen der Intraoralscanner einer Part-nerstudie desselben Instituts zeigte sich im Hinblick auf die Gesamtabweichung kein signifi-kanter Unterschied zwischen den Intraoralscans und den von der CAD-Software exportierten virtuellen Modelle. Schlussfolgerung und Disskusion Ausgehend von der aktuellen Studiensituation und den in dieser Studie gewonnenen Erkennt-nissen konnte kein signifikanter Einfluss der CAD-Software auf die virtuellen Modelle festge-stellt werden.
