    Abstract Small sacred architecture is a traditional element of many cultural and scenic landscapes throughout Europe. Although the individual elements of this sacred architecture are small, they are well distributed in landscape structure and their network on a large scale forms shared cultural heritage with significant spiritual, historical, architectural and artistic values. Small sacred objects, including crosses, shrines, columns, statues, chapels and other forms are always meaningfully integrated in local landscapes so that they create a sense of place and spiritual atmosphere. This small sacred architecture is found in everyday cultural landscapes and exceptional scenic landscapes in both urban and rural settings. This type of architecture is present in both Roman Catholic and Orthodox regions and it is often accompanied by natural elements, such as trees, shrubs or perennials. This is especially apparent in Catholic landscape “stations of the cross” and the “Bethlehem” nativity expositions. With or without trees, small sacred monuments are important landmarks and they are characteristic features of unique European scenic landscapes. Their protection and preservation for future generation must therefore remain a cultural heritage protection priority.

    Abstract Green infrastructure is a well-established concept in European strategies and policies. This article defines green infrastructure from the perspective of landscape planning and landscape architecture. It traces the origin of green infrastructure in well-known concepts from the 19th and 20th century. The article elaborates on green infrastructure in European Union, in terms of the EU Strategy on Green Infrastructure and the EU Biodiversity Strategy to 2020. Green infrastructure is discussed from the view-point of Natura 2000 and EU policies in the field of regional development, climate change and water management. This paper examines interactions between the concept of green infrastructure, the Common Agricultural Policy and the new EU Forest Strategy and then finally presents the reports, studies and international research and scientific projects on green infrastructure.

    Abstract While the primary focus of Industry 4.0 revolves around extensive digitalization, Industry 5.0, on the other hand, seeks to integrate innovative technologies with human actors, signifying an approach that is more value-driven than technology-centric. The key objectives of the Industry 5.0 paradigm, which were not central to Industry 4.0, underscore that production should not only be digitalized but also resilient, sustainable, and human-centric. This paper is focusing on the human-centric pillar of Industry 5.0. The proposed methodology addresses the need for a human-AI collaborative process design and innovation approach to support the development and deployment of advanced AI-driven co-creation and collaboration tools. The method aims to solve the problem of integrating various innovative agents (human, AI, IoT, robot) in a plant-level collaboration process through a generic semantic definition, utilizing a time event-driven process. It also encourages the development of AI techniques for human-in-the-loop optimization, incorporating cross-checking with alternative feedback loop models. Benefits of this methodology include the Industry 5.0 collaboration architecture (I5arc), which provides new adaptable, generic frameworks, concepts, and methodologies for modern knowledge creation and sharing to enhance plant collaboration processes. • The I5arc aims to investigate and establish a truly integrated human-AI collaboration model, equipped with methods and tools for human-AI driven co-creation. • Provide a framework for the co-execution of processes and activities, with humans remaining empowered and in control. • The framework primarily targets human-AI collaboration processes and activities in industrial plants, with potential applicability to other societal contexts.

    Abstract Tak, ako sa v priebehu vývoja ľudskej spoločnosti menila a pretvárala krajina, menil sa i spôsob jej vnímania človekom a jeho vzťah k nej. Krajinu definujeme z hľadiska rôznych odborných disciplín odlišne. Zjednodušene ju však môžeme nazvať domovom ľudstva, teda nás všetkých. Žijeme v nej a v jej prostredí každodenne vykonávame naše socioekonomické aktivity a uspokojujeme svoje potreby, čím do nej výrazne zasahujeme a meníme ju na svoj obraz, teda vytvárame kultúrnu krajinu, za ktorú by sme mali niesť plnú zodpovednosť. Naozaj tak konáme?

    Abstract Although the knowledge of sports cardiology advanced significantly in the recent years, the molecular mechanisms by which exercise training augments cardiac performance is poorly understood. Here we aimed at determining left ventricular (LV) myocardial sarcomeric protein modifications in a rat model of exercise training and detraining. Young male Wistar rats were divided into exercised (Ex) and control (Co) groups. Trained rats swam 200 min/day for 12 weeks. Detrained (DEx) and control (DCo) rats remained sedentary for 8 weeks after completion of the 12-week-long protocol. Ca2+-regulated active force production (Fa⁢c⁢t⁢i⁢v⁢e), its Ca2+-sensitivity (pCa50) and Ca2+-independent passive tension (Fp⁢a⁢s⁢s⁢i⁢v⁢e) were determined in isolated permeabilized cardiomyocytes and phosphorylation levels of sarcomeric proteins were assayed by biochemical methods. Means of maximal Ca2+-activated isometric force (Fm⁢a⁢x) and pCa50 values were higher (p < 0.05) in the Ex group (28.0 ± 1.4 kN/m2 and 5.91 ± 0.03, respectively, mean ± SEM) than those in the Co group (15.8 ± 0.8 kN/m2 and 5.81 ± 0.03, respectively). Fp⁢a⁢s⁢s⁢i⁢v⁢e did not differ between these two groups. The level of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) phosphorylation decreased upon exercise (from 1.00 ± 0.02 to 0.66 ± 0.06, p < 0.05; in relative units). Site specific phosphorylation assays revealed cTnI hypophosphorylations at the protein kinase A (PKA)-specific Ser-22/23 sites and at the protein kinase C (PKC)-specific Thr-143 site. Mechanical and biochemical parameters of the DEx and DCo groups did not differ from each other following the detraining period. Exercise-induced hypertrophy is associated with reversible increases in Ca2+-dependent force production and its Ca2+-sensitivity in LV cardiomyocytes, which can be associated with changes in cTnI phosphorylation.

    Abstract Agriculture has diverse forms in the intra-urban and peri-urban area of Christchurch, the capitol of the Canterbury Region, New Zealand. These agricultural landscapes are productive components of the urban green infrastructure and provide important environmental, social and economic services. Within the Reciprocal Short Term Scientific Mission supported by the European Cooperation in Science and Technology, diverse patterns of urban agriculture have been analysed according to their spatial and structural characteristics and considering their significance for building a resilient urban food system. The aim of this paper is to introduce and analyse different patterns of urban agriculture by four case studies in the intra-urban area and two case studies in the peri-urban area of Christchurch. The intra-urban agricultural landscapes are represented by the Okeover Community Garden at the University of Canterbury, the Christchurch Farmers Market at the Riccarton House, The Agropolis Urban Farm and an urban production garden. The agriculture in the peri-urban area of the city is introduced as large-scale agriculture and a specific form of urban sprawl and arable land consumption is presented by the example of lifestyle blocks.

    Abstract This study aims to comprehend relations between environmental determinants and agritourism by example of the Almaty region of Kazakhstan. As a basis for the research of this specific content the representation about agrarian recreational-tourist complexes (ARTCs) was developed and applied (ARTCs are special territorial and intersectoral integrities which largely depend on environmental determinants). Agritourism development is presented as the most important prerequisite for different successful tourism activities in Kazakhstan. With use of the developed instruments, information of different types and cartographical data 15 ARTCs were identified within the Almaty region as well as the influence of the environmental determinants for agritourism was studied. In bare outlines, the methods of functional agritourism and ecological agritourism analysis of the ARTCs’ territory based on analysis of the environmental determinants are described. The results of the research can be used for the establishment of prospects for agritourism development within the ARTCs as well as for the development of address recommendation system.

    Title translation Representativity analysis of middle-infrared spectroscopy-based Organic Carbon assessment on field-scale by chemometric methods
    Abstract Szervesszén térképezést segítő módszertani kutatásként vizsgáltuk egy szántóföldi művelés alatt álló terület, 3 mélységből származó mintáinak MIR reflektanciáját, illetve szervesszén tartalmát (Walkley-Black). Ezt követően a spektroszkópia mérések eredményeit használtuk a talaj szervesszén-mennyiségének (TOC %) becslésére. Tettük ezt 3 mintakijelölési módszer (Kennard-Stone Sampling - KSS, K-means Sampling - KMS, Latin Hypercube Sampling - LHS) bevonásával, az így kijelölt kalibrációs mintákkal a PLSR modell segítségével becslést végeztünk az adathalmaz további értékeire. Annak érdekében, hogy tábla szintű szervesszén meghatározás során teszteljük becslési pontosságukat, a modellek reprezentativitását – különböző validációs/kalibrációs arány esetén – statisztikai mutatókkal (R², RMSE) ellenőriztük. Az eredményekben részleteiben vizsgáltuk a különböző becslési modellek reakcióját eltérő arányú kalibráció és validáció esetén. A modellek R² és RMSE értékei alapján kijelöltük, hogy mely modellek működtek pontosan még alacsony kalibráció esetén is, illetve abszolút értelemben véve melyik modell volt leghatékonyabb. Az összehasonlítás eredményeként kijelenthető, hogy az általunk vizsgált talajkörülmények között a 30% alatti, valamint a 70% feletti mintaszámú kalibráció a mintakijelölési módszerek megbízhatóságának ingadozását eredményezte. Az összes minta 30%-val történő kalibráció esetén legjobb eredményt a KSS adta, így ez tekinthető a leggazdaságosabb módszernek. Az abszolút értékben vett legkisebb hibát a K-means sampling eredményezte, a minták 90%-val történő kalibrációt követően. Kijelenthető, hogy az alkalmazott módszertan esetünkben alkalmas volt – a reprezentativitás megtartása mellett – a szükséges minták számának, ergo a táblaszintű szervesszén-felmérés költségeinek csökkentésére. Továbbá a mintakijelölési módszerek becslési hatékonyságának összehasonlítására is megfelelt az általunk alkalmazott statisztikai vizsgálat. A módszertan a jövőben kiinduló alapja lehet hasonló jellegű kutatásoknak, valamint tábla szintű szervesszéntérképek elkészítésének. A szélesebb körű alkalmazást megelőzően a modelleket nagyobb varianciájú adathalmazok esetén is tesztelni szükséges. Within the framework of the present research, we mapped the organic carbon content of an arable area, during which we measured the MIR reflectance and organic carbon content (Walkley-Black) of the soil samples collected from the area at three different depths. Subsequently, the results of spectroscopic measurements were used to improve the estimation of the soil organic carbon content (TOC %). Three sample selection models were involved (KSS, KMS, LHS), and with the selected calibration samples, we estimated the additional values of the data set using the PLSR model. In order to test the accuracy of estimation for a table-level organic carbon determination, the representativeness level of the models was checked with statistical indicators (R2, RMSE) at different validation / calibration ratios. In the results, we thoroughly examined the response of different estimation models with different ratios of calibration and validation. Based on the R2 and RMSE values of the models, we determined which models worked precisely even at low calibration, and in absolute terms, which model was the most efficient. As a result of the comparison, it can be stated that under the soil conditions we examined, calibration with a sample number below 30% and above 70% caused significant fluctuations in the reliability of the sampling methods. Kennard-Stone sampling (KSS) gave the most precise results for calibration with 30% of all samples, thus it is considered the most economical method. The smallest error overall was given by K-means sampling after calibration of 90% of the samples. It can be stated that the methodology used in this study was suitable to reduce the samples required for analysis - while maintaining representativeness - therefore reducing the costs of the field-level organic carbon survey. Furthermore, the statistical analysis we used to compare the estimation efficiency of the sampling methods was also appropriate. The methodology we use may be the basis for similar research in the future, as well as for the production of table-level organic carbon maps. Prior to wider application, models also need to be tested for higher variance datasets.

    Abstract Background: Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) is highly expressed in renal proximal tubules, but ACE activity/levels in the urine are at least 100-fold lower than in the blood. Decreased proximal tubular ACE has been associated with renal tubular damage in both animal models and clinical studies. Because ACE is shed into urine primarily from proximal tubule epithelial cells, its urinary ACE measurement may be useful as an index of tubular damage. Objective and Methodology: We applied our novel approach—ACE phenotyping—to characterize urinary ACE in volunteer subjects. ACE phenotyping includes (1) determination of ACE activity using two substrates (ZPHL and HHL); (2) calculation of the ratio of hydrolysis of the two substrates (ZPHL/HHL ratio); (3) quantification of ACE immunoreactive protein levels; and (4) fine mapping of local ACE conformation with mAbs to ACE. Principal findings: In normal volunteers, urinary ACE activity was 140-fold less than in corresponding plasma/serum samples and did not differ between males and females. However, urinary ACE immunoreactivity (normalized binding of 25 mAbs to different epitopes) was strongly sex-dependent for the several mAbs tested, an observation likely explained by differences in tissue ACE glycosylation/sialylation between males and females. Urinary ACE phenotyping also allowed the identification of ACE outliers. In addition, daily variability of urinary ACE has potential utility as a feedback marker for dieting individuals pursuing weight loss. Conclusions/Significance: Urinary ACE phenotyping is a promising new approach with potential clinical significance to advance precision medicine screening techniques.
