    Abstract In the contemporary context dominated by rapid technological advances, sustainable development has emerged as an essential and globally significant topic of discussion. While the undeniable benefits technology brings to everyday life, we must also confront the significant challenges it poses to sustainable development goals. One of the major challenges we face in promoting sustainable development is the increasing dependence on the Earth's limited resources. Advanced technologies, including electronic devices and electric vehicles, generate a growing demand for natural resources. This phenomenon can lead to overexploitation of resources and significant negative environmental impacts. Addressing this challenge and finding solutions requires the development of more efficient and sustainable technologies, the promotion of advanced recycling practices, and the identification of innovative alternatives. Paradoxically, technology can also be a significant source of solutions for promoting sustainable development. Through innovations like the Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), we have the opportunity to monitor and efficiently manage resources such as energy and water, thereby reducing waste and inefficiencies. Furthermore, technology can facilitate sustainable development by providing increased access to information and education in critical areas related to the environment and sustainability.

    Abstract The concept of “resilience” has gained popularity during the COVID-19 pandemic, especially from the perspective of networking of issues that had mostly been treated separately before. It has become clear that the interconnected systems of economy, environment and society need consistent and solid approaches for building resilience to similar shocks, thus avoiding cascading and widespread failure. The digital transformation process has been accelerated and it proved to be the lifeline for many businesses and public systems. However, digitalization exacerbated the social divide and put pressure on the companies that did not have the resources to face the challenges of new technology integration. The onlife digitalization is the new phase of society digitalization where big data and smart algorithms based on artificial intelligence changed the decision process mechanism in the public and private sectors. During 2020, leaders found themselves at historic crossroads, taking decisions under remarkable pressures and uncertainties. However, new opportunities are available to shape the economic recovery, restore the health of the environment, develop sustainable business models, strengthen regional development, revitalize global cooperation, harness Industry 4.0, and redesign the social contracts, skills, and jobs.

    Abstract Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a major health problem worldwide, being the leading cause of cancer-related deaths, with limited treatment options, especially in its advanced stages. Tumor resistance is closely associated with the activation of the EMT phenomenon and its reversal, being modulated by different molecules, including noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). Noncoding RNAs have the potential to function as both tumor suppressors and oncogenic molecules, controlling the malignant potential of HCC cells. Basically, these molecules circulate in the tumor microenvironment, encapsulated in exosomes. Their impact on cell biology is more significant than originally expected, which makes related research rather complex. The temporal and spatial expression patterns, precise roles and mechanisms of specific ncRNAs encapsulated in exosomes remain primarily unknown in different stages of the disease. This review aims to highlight the recent advances in ncRNAs related to EMT and classifies the described mechanism as direct and indirect, for a better summarization. Moreover, we provide an overview of current research on the role of ncRNAs in several drug resistance-related pathways, including the emergence of resistance to sorafenib, doxorubicin, cisplatin and paclitaxel therapy. Nevertheless, we comprehensively discuss the underlying regulatory mechanisms of exosomal ncRNAs in EMT-HCC via intercellular communication pathways.

    Abstract The research delves into the underexplored area of how production network structures influence the severity of economic downturns, particularly during the last financial crisis. Utilizing the RSTAN database from the OECD, we meticulously derived critical measures from the input-output matrices for 61 economies. Our methodology entailed a panel analysis spanning from 2008 to 2010, which is a period marked by significant recessionary pressures. This analysis aimed to correlate economic performance with various production network metrics, taking into account control factors such as interest rates and the prevalence of service sectors. The findings reveal a noteworthy positive correlation between the density of production networks and economic resilience during the crisis, which remained consistent across multiple model specifications. Conversely, as anticipated, higher interest rates were linked to poorer economic performance, highlighting the critical interplay between monetary policy and economic outcomes during periods of financial instability. Given these insights, we propose a policy recommendation emphasizing the strategic enhancement of production network density as a potential buffer against economic downturns. This approach suggests that policymakers should consider the structural aspects of production networks in designing economic stability and growth strategies, thus potentially mitigating the impacts of future financial crises.

    Abstract Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are part of the exhaled breath that were proposed as non-invasive breath biomarkers via different human discharge products like saliva, breath, urine, blood, or tissues. Particularly, due to the non-invasive approach, VOCs were considered as potential biomarkers for non-invasive early cancer detection. We herein aimed to review the data over VOCs utility in digestive neoplasia as early diagnosis or monitoring biomarkers. A systematic literature search was done using MEDLINE via PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Thomson Reuters' Web of Science Core Collection. We identified sixteen articles that were included in the final analysis. Based on the current knowledge, we cannot identify a single VOC as a specific non-invasive biomarker for digestive neoplasia. Several combinations of up to twelve VOCs seem promising for accurately detecting some neoplasia types. A combination of different VOCs breath expression are promising tools for digestive neoplasia screening.

    Abstract Background: Significant changes in the epidemiology and natural history of rheumatoid vasculitis (RV) have occurred with the introduction of biological therapies such as TNF inhibitors (TNFi) and rituximab.
    Purpose: This scoping review aims to address the key current challenges and propose updated criteria for RV. This will aid future descriptive observational studies and prospective therapeutic trials.
    Methodology: The MEDLINE database was searched for eligible articles from inception through December 2022. Articles were selected based on language and publication date after 1998, corresponding to the approval of the first TNFi in rheumatic diseases.
    Results: Sixty articles were included in the review. The mean incidence of RV has decreased since the approval of biologic therapies in RA, from 9.1 (95% CI: 6.8-12.0) per million between 1988 and 2000 to 3.9 (95% CI: 2.3-6.2) between 2001 and 2010, probably due to significant improvement in RA severity and a decrease in smoking habits. Factors associated with an increased risk of RV include smoking at RA diagnosis, longer disease duration, severe RA, immunopositivity, and male gender (regardless of age). Homozygosity for the HLA-DRB104 shared epitope is linked to RV, while the presence of HLA-C3 is a significant predictor of vasculitis in patients without HLA-DRB104. Cutaneous (65-88%), neurologic (35-63%), and cardiac (33%) manifestations are common in RV, often associated with constitutional symptoms (70%). Histologic findings range from small vessel vasculitis to medium-sized necrotizing arteritis, but definite evidence of vasculitis is not required in the 1984 Scott and Bacon diagnostic criteria. Existing data on RV treatment are retrospective, and no formal published guidelines are currently available.
    Conclusion: The understanding of RV pathogenesis has improved since its initial diagnostic criteria, with a wider range of clinical manifestations identified. However, a validated and updated criteria that incorporates these advances is currently lacking, impeding the development of descriptive observational studies and prospective therapeutic trials.
    Primary funding source: This research did not receive any specific grant from funding agencies in the public, commercial, or not-for-profit sectors.
