Ugledna talijanska izdavačka kuća Mucchi iz Modene u rujnu 2021. godine, pod uredničkom palicom Antonija Saccoccija, redovitog profesora Sveučilišta La Sapienza u Rimu, i Stefana Porcellija, višeg istraživača Sveučilišta u Bresciji, objavila je znanstvenu monografiju pod nazivom Kineski građanski zakonik i rimski pravni sustav (Codice civile cinese e sistema giuridico romanistico). Riječ je o monografiji za kojom se, očekivano, javio veliki interes u romanističkim krugovima, ali i među širom zainteresiranom pravničkom javnošću. Naime, 1. siječnja 2021. godine u Narodnoj Republici Kini, najmnogoljudnijoj i jednoj od ekonomski najsnažnijih zemalja svijeta, stupio je na snagu novi Građanski zakonik (Codex iuris civilis sinicus, dalje: Zakonik), koji je 28. svibnja 2020. godine usvojio Državni narodni kongres Kine. Težnja za uređenjem pravnog sustava, poštujući princip vladavine prava u Kini, prisutna je posljednjih nekoliko desetljeća. U segmentu privatnog prava bili su prisutni veliki napori i različiti iskoraci u cilju uređenja mnogih pitanja značajnih za kinesko društvo u cjelini. Došlo je do usvajanja Zakona o dioničkim društvima, Zakona o ugovorima, Zakona o vlasništvu i stvarnim pravima itd. Pravni znanstvenici koji su pratili te izmjene, poput jednog od urednika predmetne monografije, Stefana Porcellija, ocijenili su kako su revizije ovih zakona bile prilično značajne i temeljite te su se ticale mnogih segmenata duboko vezanih s istinskim potrebama kineskog društva. Donošenje svih tih zakona te kontinuirani rad na modifikacijama unutar pravnog poretka dodijelio je novim zakonima središnju ulogu u kineskom društvu. Iako su nedvojbeno reformski procesi doprinosili jačanju vladavine prava, nastojeći uspostaviti vertikalni niz između kineske prošlosti, sadašnjosti i budućnosti, sve se izvjesnijom činila nužnost kodificiranja prava. Prijedlozi za izradu Zakonika spominjali su se još prije 20-ak godina, ali zauzet je opći stav kako društvo, ako se savinjistički izrazimo, još uvijek nije zrelo za cjelovitu reformu. I tako, nastavljen je niz donošenja novih zakona, što je zbog velike količine propisa uzrokovalo nužnost sustavnog usklađivanja kako bi se ti propisi mogli razumjeti i primijeniti. Zbog svega navedenog u listopadu 2014. godine Središnji odbor Komunističke partije Kine izrazio je želju da se izradi Nacrt građanskog zakonika za Narodnu Republiku Kinu. Radovi na izradi kodifikacije napredovali su velikom brzinom, a u tom procesu došlo je do snažne, u prvom redu akademske, suradnje kineskih i talijanskih pravnika. Na tom tragu rimsko pravo i moderne građanske kodifikacije, osobito talijanski Codice civile, poslužili su kao izvrsni modeli iz kojih se crpila pravnička inspiracija, a sve kako bi se, poštujući pravila o pravnoj transplantaciji, instituti i koncepti na adekvatan način inkorporirali u kinesku pravnu kulturu i omogućili joj daljnji gospodarski rast i razvoj, što je nedvojbeno u korelaciji s osiguranjem pravne sigurnosti. Zakonikom je postavljen cilj osiguravanja pravde kroz reguliranje građanskih, trgovačkih, a jednim dijelom i radnih odnosa, kroz sustavno pružanje jasnog pravnog okvira onima koji posluju ili žele poslovati na području Kine. Kako su sami urednici naglasili u uvodnoj studiji, forma i koncepti predmetne kodifikacije pokazuju kako je kineski zakonodavac i tamošnja pravna znanost prilikom izrade kodifikacije nastojala postići dijalog s rimskim pravnim sustavom, odnosno pravničkim poukama izgrađivanim u rimskoj pravnoj tradiciji posljednjih tisućljeća. Zbog toga, kako bi se istinski razumjeli opsezi primjene i izvorna značenja koncepata primijenjenih u Zakoniku, nužno je, u cilju razumijevanja sadržaja, dobro poznavati te konstantno proučavati rimski pravni sustav i njegov unutarnji razvoj.

INTRODUCTION Although vaccines are the safest and most effective means to prevent and control infectious diseases, the increasing rate of vaccine hesitancy and refusal (VHR) has become a worldwide concern. We aimed to find opinions of parents on vaccinating their children and contribute to available literature in order to support the fight against vaccine refusal by investigating the reasons for VHR on a global scale. METHODOLOGY In this international cross-sectional multicenter study conducted by the Infectious Diseases International Research Initiative (ID-IRI), a questionnaire consisting of 20 questions was used to determine parents' attitudes towards vaccination of their children. RESULTS Four thousand and twenty-nine (4,029) parents were included in the study and 2,863 (78.1%) were females. The overall VHR rate of the parents was found to be 13.7%. Nineteen-point three percent (19.3%) of the parents did not fully comply with the vaccination programs. The VHR rate was higher in high-income (HI) countries. Our study has shown that parents with disabled children and immunocompromised children, with low education levels, and those who use social media networks as sources of information for childhood immunizations had higher VHR rates (p < 0.05 for all). CONCLUSIONS Seemingly all factors leading to VHR are related to training of the community and the sources of training. Thus, it is necessary to develop strategies at a global level and provide reliable knowledge to combat VHR.

C. jejuni and C. coli have the greatest zoonotic potential. In humans, they cause campylobacteriosis with symptoms of food poisoning. Epidemics are mostly related to the consumption of non-chlorinated water and contaminated chicken food and in the spring-summer season. Since 2005, according to the European Food Safety Agency and the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control, campylobacteriosis has been considered the leading alimentary intoxication. A review of the literature was published in Medline, PubMed, Google Scholar, electronically available scientific journals, books, textbooks, proceedings books and reports EFSA/ ECDC, FAO/ WHO. Only literature in English, Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian is included. As a measure to prevent campylobacteriosis, sanitation is recommended in the primary production of chicken meat, and the use of probiotics in meat as biological preservatives is being investigated

The majority of refractories used today are associated with the iron and steel industries. Typically, the refractory lining of a blast furnace consists of a combination of different refractory materials chosen for different portions of the furnace, as well as distinct process conditions and temperature ranges. Knowledge and requirements for the iron manufacturing system in conjunction with the physical, mechanical, and chemical qualities of the proposed refractories determine the choice of refractory combination. Inadequate understanding of the aforementioned components frequently results in refractory failure, which then becomes a difficult problem to tackle. A blast furnace's refractory liner typically fails owing to any number or combination of these variables. To facilitate comprehension, we will explain the types of refractory lining required in a blast furnace by region, as well as the observed trend in refractory lining patterns over the past few decades.

We introduce the first IJMS World Conference of Medical Student Research as a unique opportunity for medical students and early-career scientists around the globe to share the results of their research in an online worldwide platform, aimed at increasing accessibility to research for medical students and creating bonds of collaborations between participants and future scientists and leaders of medical research education. This is also the second issue of the 10-year anniversary of the Journal, and we describe in summary the published research and experiences of this issue. 

Distributional shift, or the mismatch between training and deployment data, is a significant obstacle to the usage of machine learning in high-stakes industrial applications, such as autonomous driving and medicine. This creates a need to be able to assess how robustly ML models generalize as well as the quality of their uncertainty estimates. Standard ML baseline datasets do not allow these properties to be assessed, as the training, validation and test data are often identically distributed. Recently, a range of dedicated benchmarks have appeared, featuring both distributionally matched and shifted data. Among these benchmarks, the Shifts dataset stands out in terms of the diversity of tasks as well as the data modalities it features. While most of the benchmarks are heavily dominated by 2D image classification tasks, Shifts contains tabular weather forecasting, machine translation, and vehicle motion prediction tasks. This enables the robustness properties of models to be assessed on a diverse set of industrial-scale tasks and either universal or directly applicable task-specific conclusions to be reached. In this paper, we extend the Shifts Dataset with two datasets sourced from industrial, high-risk applications of high societal importance. Specifically, we consider the tasks of segmentation of white matter Multiple Sclerosis lesions in 3D magnetic resonance brain images and the estimation of power consumption in marine cargo vessels. Both tasks feature ubiquitous distributional shifts and a strict safety requirement due to the high cost of errors. These new datasets will allow researchers to further explore robust generalization and uncertainty estimation in new situations. In this work, we provide a description of the dataset and baseline results for both tasks.

Simple Summary Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a useful technique in diagnosis and follow-up of gliomas. In this review we provide an insight in the use of both proton and phosphorous MRS in clinical and scientific every day practice. Abstract Preoperative grade prediction is important in diagnostics of glioma. Even more important can be follow-up after chemotherapy and radiotherapy of high grade gliomas. In this review we provide an overview of MR-spectroscopy (MRS), technical aspects, and different clinical scenarios in the diagnostics and follow-up of gliomas in pediatric and adult populations. Furthermore, we provide a recap of the current research utility and possible future strategies regarding proton- and phosphorous-MRS in glioma research.

This paper presents the design and the development of an EOD robot, with MVP characteristics. The design is based on a solid base structure with an arm manipulator attached to the base. The overall dimensions of the robot are 590x860x340 mm and it weighs 55kg. The robot is capable of towing heavy objects as well as lifting sensitive objects. The robot has a maximum horizontal reach of 1400 mm and a vertical reach of 1200 mm. The robot is tested according to guidelines developed in the U.S.A., as much as the conditions allowed. Briefly, the results can be summarized as follows: the setup time for the robot is 10 minutes, it can reach speeds up to 8 km/h, it has a towing capacity of 40kg and the maximum communication reach is 20 meters. Among successful tests, the weaknesses were also found which act as a guide for future designs and developments. These weaknesses are what MVP concepts are actually developed for.

Abstract A scarcity of information on the occurrence of zoonotic vector‐borne pathogens (VBPs), alongside a lack of human and animal health authorities’ awareness of pre‐existing data, augment the risk of VBP infection for local people and limit our ability to establish control programs. This holds especially true in low‐middle income countries such as Bosnia and Herzegovina (BiH). This dearth of information on zoonotic VBPs is bolstered by the inability of previously used diagnostic tests, including conventional molecular diagnostic methods, to detect the full spectrum of relevant pathogens. Considering this, we set out to apply a microfluidic qPCR assay capable of detecting 43 bacterial and protozoan pathogens from blood to accrue critical baseline data for VBPs occurrence in BiH. A total of 408 dogs were tested of which half were infected with at least one VBP of zoonotic or veterinary importance. Leishmania infantum was found in 18% of dogs, reaching a prevalence as high as 38% in urbanized areas of Sarajevo. These data highlight substantially higher levels of L. infantum prevalence when compared to that previously reported using conventional methods using the same samples. Additionally, this high‐throughput microfluidic qPCR assay was able to detect pathogens rarely or never reported in canines in BiH, including Anaplasma phagocytophilum (3%), Anaplasma platys (0.2%), haemotropic Mycoplasma (1%) and Hepatozoon canis (26%). Our report of the endemicity of important zoonotic pathogens and those of clinical significance to dogs emphasizes the need for urgent implementation of surveillance and control for VBPs in BiH, targeting both animal and human infections within the country.

For users to trust planning algorithms, they must be able to understand the planner's outputs and the reasons for each action selection. This output does not tend to be user-friendly, often consisting of sequences of parametrised actions or task networks. And these may not be practical for non-expert users who may find it easier to read natural language descriptions. In this paper, we propose PlanVerb, a domain and planner-independent method for the verbalization of task plans. It is based on semantic tagging of actions and predicates. Our method can generate natural language descriptions of plans including causal explanations. The verbalized plans can be summarized by compressing the actions that act on the same parameters. We further extend the concept of verbalization space, previously applied to robot navigation, and apply it to planning to generate different kinds of plan descriptions for different user requirements. Our method can deal with PDDL and RDDL domains, provided that they are tagged accordingly. Our user survey evaluation shows that users can read our automatically generated plan descriptions and that the explanations help them answer questions about the plan.
