Surface coal operations in which mining activities are conducted above old underground workings experience hot holes after drilling. In a coal mine, hot holes are defined as shot holes, which after being drilled have an in-hole ambient temperature of 40°C or above or show a temperature increase of 3°C or more during monitoring. Hot holes and other cavities, such as cracks, pose health and safety risks to workers, such as exposure to hot air and high concentrations of noxious gases released from these holes. In addition, workers may be exposed to premature detonation of explosives caused by in-hole temperature increases and chemical reactions. To this end, Coaltech Research Association commissioned a project to develop a Best Practice Guideline for the management of hot holes. This paper is a compilation of the activities conducted in the development of the Best Practice Guideline between 2021 and 2022. The activities included a review of standard operating procedures and hot-hole temperature-measuring and -monitoring devices, and the assessment of current hot-hole procedures at selected mines. The results indicated that management of hot holes requires a focus on pre-emptive risk assessment of mining blocks, identification of hot holes using the correct temperature-measuring devices, and continuous monitoring of hot holes from the time of drilling until just before blasting. Hot-hole management accessories, such as polyvinyl chloride sleeves, were found to be effective in insulating the hot-hole emulsion from the rock mass temperature, thus preventing the potential for premature detonation.

ABSTRACT Deepwater fishing operations occur close to the shore of the Guatemalan Caribbean. In a study to characterize the deepwater species present in the fishing area, the incidental catch of a kitefin shark, Dalatias licha, was recorded at a depth of ~284-334 m, ca. 11 km northeast of El Quetzalito fishing village. The adult female with a total length of 1420 mm had morphological characteristics consistent with D. licha, which was confirmed by molecular methods. First record of D. licha in the western Caribbean region, a species cataloged at risk by the IUCN red list. With this record, the number of shark species known in the Guatemalan Caribbean increases to 25.

The mining industry has yet to fully accept and embrace the strategic role of technology and innovation in successful business planning and execution. In this study, we empirically determine the factors that influence acceptance of technology solutions in the mining industry in South Africa, assess critical success factors influencing adoption of advanced technology in the South African mining industry, and explore challenges faced by the mining industry in South Africa in adopting advanced technology in its operations. Thematic content analysis is employed in the data analysis. Results show that critical success factors to the adoption of mining technology include learning culture, knowledge sharing, high labour costs, and behaviour of other firms in the industry; commonly identified challenges include inadequate engagement with external stakeholders, uncertainties, the cyclical nature of the sector, and high risk related to the adoption of unproven technology and performance systems focused on volumetric production. The study encourages mining companies to implement usage of technology. This can be properly done through regular engagement with the Minerals Council South Africa.

Abstract Nonferrous metal smelting operations are a recognized source of metal accumulation in surrounding soils. In Mednogorsk, Russia, soil contamination results from atmospheric emissions from a local copper (Cu) smelter. This study aimed to assess health risks by analyzing the levels of Cu, arsenic (As), cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn) in 20 Mednogorsk topsoil samples and three background area samples. The phytotoxicity of metals to Lolium perenne was also evaluated. The soil ingestion protocol of the US Environmental Protection Agency was used for health risk assessment. Phytotoxicity tests were performed on ryegrass using a standard protocol. The levels of Cu correlated with those of other elements, indicating that the smelter was the source. Of concern, the carcinogenic risk exceeded the 10−04 threshold in 85% and 15% of the samples for children under five years of age and adults, respectively. In addition, 60% of the samples exceeded the safe Pb threshold for children's health (80 mg kg−1). These risk levels are unacceptable and require specific intervention by the relevant authorities. However, only 20% of the samples showed high phytotoxicity, mostly in acidic soils (pH<4.0). This discussion focuses on the potential of soil phytostabilization to reduce human metal exposure, as the results provide valuable insights for managing metal pollution in regions affected by nonferrous smelter emissions worldwide.

Resumen Las fundiciones de metales no ferrosos son una fuente reconocida de acumulación de metales en los suelos circundantes. En Mednogorsk, Rusia, la contaminación del suelo se debe a las emisiones atmosféricas de una local fundición de cobre. Este estudio tiene como objetivo evaluar los riesgos para la salud humana mediante el análisis de los contenidos de cobre, arsénico, cadmio, plomo y zinc en 20 muestras de suelos de Mednogorsk y tres muestras de suelos del área no contaminada. Complementariamente, se evaluó la fitotoxicidad de los metales para una especie indicadora, Lolium perenne, utilizando un protocolo estándar. Para la evaluación de riesgos para la salud humana, se utilizó el protocolo de la Agencia de Protección Ambiental de los EEUU. Los contenidos de cobre se correlacionaron con los de otros elementos, lo que indica que la fundición de cobre es la fuente de emisión. Lo preocupante es que el riesgo cancerígeno superó el umbral de 10−4 en el 85% de las muestras para niños de edad <5 años y en el 15% de las muestras para los adultos. Además, el umbral de plomo considerado seguro para la salud infantil (80 mg kg−1) se superó en el 60% de las muestras. Estos niveles de riesgo son inaceptables y requieren una intervención específica por parte de las autoridades pertinentes. Sin embargo, sólo el 20% de las muestras mostraron alta fitotoxicidad en L. perenne, principalmente en suelos ácidos (con pH <4,0). Considerando estos resultados, se evalúe la factibilidad de un proceso de fitoestabilización del suelo para reducir la exposición humana a los metales. Los resultados proporcionan información valiosa para gestionar la contaminación por metales en regiones afectadas por emisiones de fundiciones no ferrosas en todo el mundo.

A dengue evoluiu de uma doença restrita a alguns países para um grave problema global de saúde pública, atingindo mais de 120 países nos últimos anos. No Brasil, após sua reintrodução em 1981, o país enfrentou diversas epidemias, com mais de 16 milhões de casos registrados até o momento. Em 2023, sob a vigência do fenômeno climático El Niño registrou-se uma das maiores epidemias de dengue no país, com mais de 1,6 milhões de casos notificados. Temperaturas e pluviosidade mais elevadas em conjunto com a circulação simultânea dos quatro sorotipos do vírus da dengue aumentaram ainda mais o risco de disseminação da doença em 2024, especialmente em populações sem imunidade para alguns dos sorotipos. Diante deste quadro, o Ministério da Saúde promoveu várias ações para enfrentar a situação, incluindo a instalação de uma Sala Nacional de Arboviroses e um Comitê de Operações de Emergência, repasses financeiros para apoiar estados e municípios em ações contingenciais de vigilância e prevenção de doenças, com ênfase no enfrentamento das arboviroses e investimentos em inovações para o controle da dengue, como vacinação e o método Wolbachia. Ainda assim, o primeiro trimestre de 2024 registrou um número de casos suspeitos de dengue superior ao de 2023, destacando a necessidade de aprimoramentos no monitoramento da situação epidemiológica para detecção precoce de epidemias e da preparação dos serviços de saúde para o cuidado dos casos com sinais de gravidade. Após mais de 40 anos de epidemias recorrentes, o controle efetivo da dengue no país requer ações sustentadas de prevenção por meio de estratégias inovadoras, envolvendo esforços coordenados de todas as esferas da gestão em saúde, juntamente com a participação ativa da população. Ações estruturais para a melhoria na cobertura de saneamento básico e para mitigação dos efeitos das mudanças climá

Dengue has evolved from a disease restricted to a few countries into a serious global public health issue, affecting over 120 countries in recent years. In Brazil, after its reintroduction in 1981, the country has faced several epidemics, with over 16 million cases registered to date. In 2023, under the influence of the El Niño climatic phenomenon, one of the largest epidemics occurred in the country, with over 1.6 million cases reported. High temperatures and precipitation in line with the simultaneous circulation of all four serotypes of the dengue virus increased the risk of disease spread in 2024, especially in populations without immunity to some of the serotypes. In such a scenario, the Ministry of Health undertook various actions to address the situation, including the establishment of a National Arbovirus Situation Room and an Emergency Operations Commitee, financial support to assist states and municipalities in contingency actions for disease surveillance and prevention, with an emphasis on combating arboviruses, and investments in innovations for dengue control, such as vaccination and the Wolbachia method. However, the number of notified dengue cases in the first trimester of 2024 supplanted the whole year of 2023, highlighting the need for a more effective monitoring of the epidemiological situation for early outbreak detection and the preparation of health services for the care of cases with signs of severity. After more than 40 years of recurrent dengue epidemics, the effective control of dengue requires sustained preventive actions using innovative strategies, with coordinated efforts at all levels of health management, along with active participation of the population. Structural actions to improve basic sanitation coverage and to mitigate the effects of climate change are critical conditions for reducing the burden of dengue in the population.

Abstract Background Goblet cell carcinoma (GCC) of the appendix is a unique lesion that exhibits features of both adenocarcinoma and neuroendocrine tumors. Due to the rarity of this cancer, multiple grading (e.g., Tang, Yozu, and Lee) and staging systems (e.g., tumor, lymph nodes, and metastasis [TNM]) have been developed for classification. This study aimed to compare commonly used classification systems and evaluate the prognostic effectiveness immunohistochemical staining may or may not have for appendiceal GCC. Methods An electronic medical records review of patients who were diagnosed with GCC of the appendix in our hospital system from 2010 to 2020. The data were collected regarding the age at diagnosis, gender, initial diagnosis at presentation, operation(s) performed, final pathology results, current survival status, and year of recurrent disease or death year. Results Ten patients were evaluated. Seventy percent of the patients were above the age of 50 years at diagnosis. Postdischarge survival ranged from 1 month to 109 months postdiagnosis. Two patients expired from GCC at 13- and 54-months following diagnosis. When comparing the classification systems, Lee categorized more patients as high risk than Tang and Yozu. Immunohistochemical staining was analyzed using four staining methods: Ki67, E-cadherin, Beta-catenin, and p53. Tumor, lymph nodes, and metastasis staging has supportive evidence for worsening prognosis and overall survival secondary to the depth of invasion of the tumor. Conclusion Tumor, lymph nodes, and metastasis staging may be superior to the other classification systems in predicting overall mortality. Our study demonstrated that immunohistochemistry staining does not appear to have a significant impact in determining the prognosis for GCC of the appendix.

Abstract It is commonly assumed that beach seining (BS) is more sustainable than bottom trawling because it involves non-motorized operations and limited fishing power. However, no scientific evidence supports this assumption. To address this gap, we evaluated the impact of beach seining, taking a small-scale shrimp fishery in northeast Brazil. Data collected monthly from December 2016 to November 2017 and in literature, were assessed (BS 31,001 individuals, 119 species, 37 families, and 19 orders; BT 6,031 individuals, 58 species, 20 families, and 14 orders). Beach seining demonstrated a lower proportion of bycatch (BS 1:2.3; BT 1:3.2), higher total shrimp catch (BS 87.2 t; BT 65 t), and greater species diversity than bottom trawling catches (BS 119; BT 58). Other aspects were closer associated with bottom trawling, such as the composition of dominant families (Sciaenidae and Pristigasteridae), the proportion of rare species (BS 30%; BT 24%) juveniles (BS 11g; BT 13g), the risk of species extinction, and the composition of ecological guilds. Despite their social significance, both fishing gears showed similar ecological indicators and adverse effects. The findings establish that the ecological concerns related to the impact of bottom trawling are also applicable to beach seine.

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY: Firms rely on information systems (IS) to improve information sharing and visibility, cut costs, and boost productivity. Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems are being used as important strategic tools in this direction, providing competitive advantages and resulting in increased operational efficiencies. However, ERP implementation failure rates remain high because of ineffective risk management to limit supply chain disruptions during implementation. The objective of supply chain risk management (SCRM) is to enable firms to remain sustainable in the face of major disruptions. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the role of SCRM capabilities associated with ERP implementation to limit supply chain disruptions during ERP operations. DESIGN/METHODOLOGY/APPROACH: A generic qualitative research design was used to collect primary data through semi-structured interviews with fourteen ERP providers and clients in South Africa. Thematic analysis was utilised to evaluate the data. FINDINGS: The study determined that SCRM capabilities can assist firms in returning to superior operations after ERP implementation. Furthermore, the findings shed light on the specific SCRM processes used during ERP implementation, as well as identifying areas for improvement. RECOMMENDATIONS/VALUE: This study equips ERP providers and ERP clients with valuable insight into understanding the capabilities of SCRM in ERP implementation. MANAGERIAL IMPLICATIONS: Along with leveraging the SCRM capabilities identified, managers are advised to use formal and external assessment tools, implement a formal SCRM process, increase efforts to involve supply chain partners during ERP implementation and selection, and finally, incorporate a change management division to reduce disruption during ERP implementation JEL CLASSIFICATION: L14.

An effective institutional coordination and communication are essential determinants of community disaster resilience capacities and successful execution of disaster risk reduction (DRR) strategies. Several international agreements endorse adopting consolidated, decentralised, participatory approaches to manage hydrometeorological hazards. Yet, the capacity of local governments to develop and implement effective disaster risk reduction strategies remains inconsistent and relatively unknown. In its quest to achieve sustainable economic development, Namibia has developed a DRR legislative framework and enlisted a central body to execute the strategic policy for disaster disruption mitigation and national resilience building. This study adopts a qualitative case study approach to assess the role of the central disaster risk management institution in establishing effective institutional coordination and communication structures for successful flood early warning system operations. Based on its legislative mandate, the study presents a hierarchically contextualised account of the institutions' empirical progress in DRR streamlining. CONTRIBUTION: The study identifies bureaucracy, limited institutional capacities, inadequate funding and response and relief prioritisation as major challenges to system efficacy. It provides directives for better institutional coordination and communication to reduce future harm.

Abstract Introduction supermarket cashiers were considered essential and worked during the COVID-19 quarantine, but were not prioritized for the vaccine despite extreme exposure. Objective to investigate the subjective experiences of cashiers during the covid-19 pandemic. Methods descriptive, exploratory study with a qualitative approach. The subjects were cashiers of both sexes, from June to October 2021. Semi-structured interviews were conducted online to explore subjective aspects of the work. The recruitment took place in a Facebook group of the category. The comprehensive thematic analysis was based on the psychodynamics of work. Results supermarket cashier work is precarious. The pandemic caused fatigue, emotional exhaustion, sadness. Exposure to the public caused a perception of risk contamination, fear, intensification of preexisting tensions with customers and managers. The categorization of “essencial work” associated with not prioritizing vaccination mobilized anger, feelings of injustice, devaluation and helplessness. The lack of recognition accentuates suffering, leads to subjective demobilization, undermines identity and deteriorates mental health. Conclusions it is necessary to give the word, in a therapeutic context and in the collective public space, to people who work in supermarket cashier operations, enabling the politicization of the discourse.

BACKGROUND: Competitive intelligence (CI) involves monitoring competitors and providing organisations with actionable and meaningful intelligence. Some studies have focussed on the role of CI in other industries post-COVID-19 pandemic OBJECTIVES: This article aims to examine the impact of COVID-19 on the South African insurance sector and how the integration of CI and related technologies can sustain the South African insurance sector post-COVID-19 epidemic METHOD: Qualitative research with an exploratory-driven approach was used to examine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the South African insurance sector. Qualitative secondary data analyses were conducted to measure insurance claims and death benefits paid during the COVID-19 pandemic RESULTS: The research findings showed that the COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted the South African insurance industry, leading to a reassessment of pricing, products, and risk management. COVID-19 caused disparities in death benefits and claims between provinces; not everyone was insured. Despite challenges, South African insurers remained well-capitalised and attentive to policyholders. Integrating CI and analytical technologies could enhance the flexibility of prevention, risk management, and product design CONCLUSION: COVID-19 requires digital transformation and CI for South African insurers' competitiveness. Integrating artificial intelligence (AI), big data (BD), and CI enhances value, efficiency, and risk assessments CONTRIBUTION: This study highlights the importance of integrating CI strategies and related technologies into South African insurance firms' operations to aid in their recovery from the COVID-19 crisis. It addresses a research gap and adds to academic knowledge in this area

Abstract The incorporation of deep learning (DL) and blockchain (BC) technologies in healthcare revolutionizes disease diagnoses and improves data security. The tamper-resistant and decentralized nature of BC safeguards the integrity and confidentiality of medical records, alleviating the risk of any unauthorized access. At the same time, DL techniques leverage intricate patterns within healthcare information to enhance the accuracy and speed of disease diagnoses. With this motivation, this article proposes a new BC with a golden jackal optimization algorithm enabled DL assisted secure medical data transmission and diagnoses (BGJOA-DLSMTD). The objective of the BGJOA-DLSMTD algorithm is to analyze the disease with a high detection rate and securely transfer the medical images. The BGJOA-DLSMTD algorithm integrates various levels of operations namely encryption, image acquisition, BC, and diagnostic process. Initially, GJOA with a homomorphism encryption system is employed for the process of image encryption wherein the optimum keys could be produced by the GJOA technique. Also, BC is implemented to store the encrypted imageries. Next, the diagnostic method includes Bayesian optimization algorithm (BOA) based hyper parameter tuning, deep belief network (DBN)-based classification, and CapsNet-based feature extraction. The empirical analysis of the proposed BGJOA-DLSMTD algorithm has been demonstrated by means of standard medical images and the outcomes underlined the superior achievement of the BGJOA-DLSMTD algorithm.

Abstract The shearing behavior of discontinuities is one of the factors with major influence on rock slope stability analysis, which is predictable when adopting different analytical models. However, these methodologies, generally of a purely deterministic nature, do not allow an assessment of the influence of the variability of the input parameters of the models on the shear behavior of unfilled rock discontinuities and, consequently, on the risk involved in the rock slope stability analyses. The purpose of this article is to present a methodology for rock slope risk assessment based on the development of a model to predict the shear behavior of unfilled rock discontinuity considering the variability of its input parameters, using a Mamdani fuzzy controller. The input variables of the model are the boundary normal stiffness and initial normal stress acting on the discontinuity, its roughness, the uniaxial compressive strength, the basic angle of friction of the intact rock and the shear displacement imposed on the discontinuity. The model outputs are the membership functions for the shear strength and dilation of the unfilled rock discontinuity, and from which the membership function can be defined for the factor of safety of the rock slope considering the failure mechanism governed by discontinuity. The results reveal the use and importance of fuzzy logic and fuzzy number operations in assessing the risk in rock slopes and may be used even in situations where there are major uncertainties on the existing information of the characteristics of the unfilled discontinuities. analysis However methodologies nature consequently analyses controller roughness

ABSTRACT Introduction: it is made a proposal to local governments to improve the protection and inclusion of the most vulnerable people in emergency and/or disaster response operations, addressing the gaps identified during hurricanes Irma and Maria. It provides methodological tools, with an intersectionality approach, for the mitigation of gender-specific inequalities, by disability and age, as a consequence of mobilities induced by adverse weather events. Methods: It was used a case study, focusing on the socio-economic dynamics of the territories. It included the identification and review of documents and the selection of communities, based on the criterion of having been affected by a disaster or emergency, for which the population had to, temporarily or permanently, leave their homes. They were identified the key actors involved in risk management and their previously identified roles, based on their functions in the decision-making process at the government and community levels. It was carried out intersectional analysis of inequalities. Results: Methodology for addressing equity gaps by gender, age and disability status as consequences of induced mobility in disaster environments; Key actors sensitized and trained; Six case studies of people living in areas recurrently affected by the impact of extreme hydrometeorological disasters; Three files on successful risk management experiences where the protagonists have been women/girls. As conclusions, the study provides a novel perspective by unveiling elements on the differentiated impact of disasters on vulnerable groups, specifically women, people with disabilities, older adults and children, from the use of the methodological perspective of intersectionality, focusing the analysis on the pre-existing limitations and capacities of people and groups of people in emergency and/or disaster contexts.
