The Ionospheric Dynamics of the African Sector Responding to a Severe Geomagnetic Storm; the Storm of 3–5 November 2021 by Wellen Rukundo

“…The analysis of TIMED Global UltraViolet Imager images revealed storm time‐induced changes in thermospheric composition during the main phase which resulted in a differential ionospheric response with intense, moderate, and weak positive storm effects in northern, equatorial, and southern regions respectively. The horizontal magnetic field components show two signatures of prompt penetration electric field that suppressed the formation of the equatorial anomaly at SSC and enhanced positive storm effects in the equatorial region at the main phase, Therefore, the ionospheric response was due to the relative contributions of prompt penetration electric field effects and equatorward traveling disturbances which depended on storm onset time, past ionospheric state, and storm phase.…”

Análisis de la estrategia de política monetaria del Banco Central Europeo (1999-2005) by Jesús Manuel García Iglesias, Carlos Pateiro Rodríguez

“…Se demuestra que el enfoque es hacia adelante (forward-looking) respecto a la inflación subyacente y hacia atrás (backward looking) respecto al ciclo de la producción, con tendencia a alargar el horizonte temporal en ambos casos. Se obtiene pruebas claras de que el valor del coeficiente de aversión a la inflación sigue el principio de Taylor y, finalmente, que la ponderación del crecimiento en las decisiones sobre tasas es reducida.…”

Current understanding of antimicrobial resistance mechanisms in bacteria (analytical review) by O. V. Pruntova, V. S. Russaleyev, N. B. Shadrova

“…It is noted that producer microorganisms can directly transfer antimicrobial resistance genes to pathogenic bacteria, but a reliable link between this process and antimicrobial resistance spread has not been identified and proven so far. Horizontal gene transfer, including free DNA transformation, transduction by bacteriophages and plasmid-involving conjugation, is believed to play an important role in antimicrobial resistance spread. …”

Factors affecting visual outcomes of pituitary macroadenoma following transsphenoidal surgery by Shoeb, Ugan Singh Meena, Suresh Kumawat

“…Endoscopic surgery is preferred for treating these tumours because it allows for better sideways decompression, which is essential for relieving nerve pressure in both vertical and horizontal directions. This approach is pivotal in achieving optimal vision recovery and maximizing vision improvement compared to other surgical methods. …”
