unintentionally. Because communication is essential, the use of language becomes the main thing for social life. In line with this, the use of language in each nation also has its characteristics. One is in Japan, which has a unique way of communicating, Aizuchi. Aizuchi is a form of response so that the speaker feels heard and understood by the listener. In this era of globalization, when technology is increasingly sophisticated, it is also easier for humans to communicate through podcast media as one of the audiovisual media that can be listened to anywhere and anytime because the platform for listening or watching it is straightforward to access. This study's data source was taken from the Yuyu no Sekai Podcast in the episode "[Gesuto: Chō-san] Vol. 01 - Myanmā tte don'na kuni?". This study aims to find out the differences in the use of aizuchi in Japanese and Myanmar people fluent in Japanese in the episode "[Gesuto: Chō-san] Vol. 01 - Myanmā tte don'na kuni?". The theory used in this researchis the theory of Mayumi Kutoba. This research method uses a descriptive qualitative type, with the collection method being the listening and Simak Bebas Libat Cakap listening techniques. The data contained in this study amounted to 51 data divided into 10 Kiiteiru to iu shingou functions, 14 Rikaishiteiru to iu shingou functions, 10 Doui no shingou functions, 9 Kanjyou noshingou functions, 6 Ma wo motaseru shingou functions, 1 Hitei no shingou function and 1 Jyouhou wo tsuika, teisei, youkyuu no shingou function.
Negosiasi Identitas Budaya Jepang dalam Novel Tenki No Ko dan Terjemahannya dalam Bahasa Indonesia
Authors: Fatin Jihan Salsa Biela , Cholsy Hayatul
Published: November 2022

The translator as a negotiator must ensure that all information contained in the source language text is conveyed to the target language reader. Because translation can be a way to overcome intercultural gaps. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method to find the formulation of the translation of Japanese cultural terms that have been negotiated in Indonesian translation. The material objects of this research were the Japanese novel 'Tenki No Ko' and its Indonesian translation 'Weathering With You’. The frameworks for this study were Newmark's cultural terms categorizations, Eco's idea of negotiation, and Baker's strategies for culture-specific items. This study revealed that the negotiation of Japanese cultural identity can be identified and formulated through the translation strategy used by the translator. The strategies were using general words, omissions, paraphrasing with related words, using neutral words, and using unrelated words.

Religion in the Lyrics of the Czech Underground
Authors: Nešpor Zdeněk R.
Published: November 2022

The study analyses various types of religion manifested in the lyrics of Czech underground musicians in the 1970s and 1980s. The author primarily examines the religious, implicitly religious, and social sources of musicians and the recipient communities in religion. In the second part of the study, he focuses on the types and ways of presenting religious content. Although much of it was derived from ecclesiastical Christianity (which does not mean that it corresponded to specific confessions or religious traditions), he also notes non-Christian and alternative spiritualities parallel to any organised religion. Although the article does not pay much attention to the reception of the underground religion and its communities, the author concludes that this phenomenon was among the key manifestations of modern self-oriented spirituality in Czech society.
Between the Scylla of Bowing to the Regime and the Charybdis of Frontline Clash: Evangelicals and the Underground in Czechoslovakia During the Normalisation
Authors: Soukupová Monika
Published: November 2022

Under the so-called normalisation, the community of underground artists was not the only source of an alternate lifestyle to state-mandated behaviour in Czechoslovakia. Many Evangelical communities provided young people with an equally different vision for living, albeit much less radical. The study aims to reveal what forms of contact took place between the two milieux, principally drawing upon interviews conducted by the author with seven figures active in various Evangelical-oriented communities during the period mentioned above. The interviews recorded these people’s attitudes on the church’s social engagement, allowing respondents to judge the actions of their parent churches under the domination of state power that was hostile to religious congregations and reflect on their own positions concerning the communist regime. The article further explores the multi-layered relationship of respondents to the dissent, which provides valuable insights into the ambivalence of the Czechoslovak Evangelical clergy towards various forms of anti-regime resistance. The paper concludes with a description of specific, selected interactions between the Evangelical and underground milieux and an explanation of possible reasons why there was no significant connection between the two alternatives during the examined period.
Distinct conformational and energetic features define the specific recognition of (di)aromatic peptide motifs by PEX14

Published: November 2022

The cycling import receptor PEX5 and its membrane-located binding partner PEX14 are key constituents of the peroxisomal import machinery. Upon recognition of newly synthesized cargo proteins carrying a peroxisomal targeting signal type 1 (PTS1) in the cytosol, the PEX5/cargo complex docks at the peroxisomal membrane by binding to PEX14. The PEX14 N-terminal domain (NTD) recognizes (di)aromatic peptides, mostly corresponding to Wxxx(F/Y)-motifs, with nano-to micromolar affinity. Human PEX5 possesses eight of these conserved motifs distributed within its 320-residue disordered N-terminal region. Here, we combine biophysical (ITC, NMR, CD), biochemical and computational methods to characterize the recognition of these (di)aromatic peptides motifs and identify key features that are recognized by PEX14. Notably, the eight motifs present in human PEX5 exhibit distinct affinities and energetic contributions for the interaction with the PEX14 NTD. Computational docking and analysis of the interactions of the (di)aromatic motifs identify the specific amino acids features that stabilize a helical conformation of the peptide ligands and mediate interactions with PEX14 NTD. We propose a refined consensus motif ExWΦxE(F/Y)Φ for high affinity binding to the PEX14 NTD and discuss conservation of the (di)aromatic peptide recognition by PEX14 in other species.
‘From Where Are These Words?’ The Reception of the Bible in the Babylonian Talmud
Authors: Wolf Sarah
Published: November 2022

This article addresses the paradox of the Bible’s reception in the Babylonian Talmud: that despite the Bible’s centrality to many of the discussions and stories in the Talmud, the Talmud ultimately recontextualizes the Bible by creating a new version of the Jewish study canon. It argues that this paradox cannot be understood without recognizing that there are essentially two different concepts of the Bible held by the late rabbis; that is, a material Bible and a memorized Bible. The Bible makes an appearance in the Talmud as a physical object or set of objects, composed of words on parchment, and consisting of a specific collection of works, which are accorded special status. However, the Bible as a memorized study text plays a different role in Talmudic hermeneutics, in which the redactors of the Talmud present the Bible in atomized form as one of many sources that are all subject to the same type of discussion and interpretation. By analyzing the complexity of the Bible’s role in the Talmud, this article stakes a middle ground between the argument that the Talmud and other works of rabbinic literature are in some fundamental sense part of a continuous line of revision and commentary that dates back to the earliest forms of inner-biblical exegesis; and, on the other hand, the position that the rabbis either are uninterested in or represent an active rupture from modes of reading the Bible.
Model organisms for functional validation in genetic renal disease
Authors: Boettcher Susanne , Simons Matias
Published: November 2022

Functional validation is key for establishing new disease genes in human genetics. Over the years, model organisms have been utilized in a very effective manner to prove causality of genes or genetic variants for a wide variety of diseases. Also in hereditary renal disease, model organisms are very helpful for functional validation of candidate genes and variants identified by next-generation sequencing strategies and for obtaining insights into the pathophysiology. Due to high genetic conservation as well as high anatomical and physiological similarities with the human kidney, almost all genetic kidney diseases can be studied in the mouse. However, mouse work is time consuming and expensive, so there is a need for alternative models. In this review, we will provide an overview of model organisms used in renal research, focusing on mouse, zebrafish, frog, and fruit flies.

Published: November 2022

The present research work studied and evaluated conditions of pre-weld and post-weld heat treatments for the laser welding process, aiming to avoid weld cracking, which usually occurs after tungsten inert gas and/or laser welding processes in cast nickel-based superalloys with high aluminum and titanium contents. The pre-weld heat treatment conditions used in the experiments were (1) 1473 K for 7.2 ks, (2) 1433 K for 7.2 ks + 1298 K for 56.7 ks, (3) 1413 K for 7.2 ks + 1298 K for 56.7 ks, (4) 1393 K for 7.2 ks + 1298 K for 56.7 ks. A laser welding process on cast nickel-based superalloys, grade GTD-111, with metal filler of Inconel 718, a nickel-iron based alloy was conducted. From all obtained results, it was found that the pre-weld heat treatment conditions significantly influence microstructures before laser welding. After laser welding and post-weld heat treatment at a temperature of 1473 K for 7.2 ks followed by precipitation aging at a temperature of 1118 K for 86.4 ks (standard heat treatment), all welded specimens exhibited similar microstructures and hardness values. Furthermore, no weld cracking was observed in all welded specimens.
More to Tell About Billa!
Authors: Edmonds Alexander Johannes , Creamer Petra M.
Published: November 2022

Despite being one of the most prominent and best-documented northern client states of the Ur III state, the city of Asimānum/Šimānum remained unlocalized. Here, we demonstrate through both historical-geographical and philological argumentation and archaeological evidence that it must correspond to later Middle and Neo-Assyrian Šibaniba, modern Tell Billa, northern Iraq. Building upon this finding, we propose a new history of Tell Billa during the Early and Middle Bronze Age.
Coupled Dynamics of Stimulus-Evoked Gustatory Cortical and Basolateral Amygdalar Activity
Authors: Mahmood Abuzar , Steindler Jessica , Germaine Hannah , Miller Paul , Katz Donald B.
Published: November 2022

Gustatory cortical (GC) single-neuron taste responses reflect taste quality and palatability in successive epochs. Ensemble analyses reveal epoch-to-epoch firing-rate changes in these responses to be sudden, coherent transitions. Such nonlinear dynamics suggest that GC is part of a recurrent network, producing these dynamics in concert with other structures. Basolateral amygdala (BLA), which is reciprocally connected to GC and central to hedonic processing, is a strong candidate partner for GC, in that BLA taste responses evolve on the same general clock as GC and because inhibition of activity in the BLA→GC pathway degrades the sharpness of GC transitions. These facts motivate, but do not test, our overarching hypothesis that BLA and GC act as a single, comodulated network during taste processing. Here, we provide just this test of simultaneous (BLA and GC) extracellular taste responses in female rats, probing the multiregional dynamics of activity to directly test whether BLA and GC responses contain coupled dynamics. We show that BLA and GC response magnitudes covary across trials and within single responses, and that changes in BLA–GC local field potential phase coherence are epoch specific. Such classic coherence analyses, however, obscure the most salient facet of BLA–GC coupling: sudden transitions in and out of the epoch known to be involved in driving gaping behavior happen near simultaneously in the two regions, despite huge trial-to-trial variability in transition latencies. This novel form of inter-regional coupling, which we show is easily replicated in model networks, suggests collective processing in a distributed neural network.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTThere has been little investigation into real-time communication between brain regions during taste processing, a fact reflecting the dominant belief that taste circuitry is largely feedforward. Here, we perform an in-depth analysis of real-time interactions between GC and BLA in response to passive taste deliveries, using both conventional coherence metrics and a novel methodology that explicitly considers trial-to-trial variability and fast single-trial dynamics in evoked responses. Our results demonstrate that BLA–GC coherence changes as the taste response unfolds, and that BLA and GC specifically couple for the sudden transition into (and out of) the behaviorally relevant neural response epoch, suggesting (although not proving) that: (1) recurrent interactions subserve the function of the dyad as (2) a putative attractor network.

Published: November 2022

Despite the clinical significance of prepulse inhibition (PPI), the mechanisms are not well understood. Herein, we present our investigation of PPI in the R1 component of electrically induced blink reflexes. The effect of a prepulse was explored with varying prepulse test intervals (PTIs) of 20–600 ms in 4 females and 12 males. Prepulse–test combinations included the following: stimulation of the supraorbital nerve (SON)–SON [Experiment (Exp) 1], sound–sound (Exp 2), the axon of the facial nerve–SON (Exp 3), sound–SON (Exp 4), and SON–SON with a long trial–trial interval (Exp 5). Results showed that (1) leading weak SON stimulation reduced SON-induced ipsilateral R1 with a maximum effect at a PTI of 140 ms, (2) the sound–sound paradigm resulted in a U-shaped inhibition time course of the auditory startle reflex (ASR) peaking at 140 ms PTI, (3) facial nerve stimulation showed only a weak effect on R1, (4) a weak sound prepulse facilitated R1 but strongly inhibited SON-induced late blink reflexes (LateRs) with a similar U-shaped curve, and (5) LateR in Exp 5 was almost completely absent at PTIs >80 ms. These results indicate that the principal sensory nucleus is responsible for R1 PPI. Inhibition of ASR or LateR occurs at a point in the startle reflex circuit where auditory and somatosensory signals converge. Although the two inhibitions are different in location, their similar time courses suggest similar neural mechanisms. As R1 has a simple circuit and is stable, R1 PPI helps to clarify PPI mechanisms.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTPrepulse inhibition (PPI) is a phenomenon in which the startle response induced by a startle stimulus is suppressed by a preceding nonstartle stimulus. This study demonstrated that the R1 component of the trigeminal blink reflex shows clear PPI despite R1 generation within a circuit consisting of the trigeminal and facial nuclei, without startle reflex circuit involvement. Thus, PPI is not specific to the startle reflex. In addition, PPI of R1, the auditory startle reflex, and the trigeminal late blink reflex showed similar time courses in response to the prepulse test interval, suggesting similar mechanisms regardless of inhibition site. R1 PPI, in conjunction with other paradigms with different prepulse–test combinations, would increase understanding of the underlying mechanisms.

Published: November 2022

Mechanical impact-induced primary injury after traumatic brain injury (TBI) leads to acute microglial pro-inflammatory activation and consequently mediates neurodegeneration, which is a major secondary brain injury mechanism. However, the detailed pathologic cascades have not been fully elucidated, partially because of the pathologic complexity in animal TBI models. Although there are severalin vitroTBI models, none of them closely mimic post-TBI microglial activation. In the present study, we aimed to establish anin vitroTBI model, specifically reconstituting the pro-inflammatory activation and associated neurodegeneration following TBI. We proposed three sets of experiments. First, we established a needle scratch injured neuron-induced microglial activation and neurodegenerationin vitromodel of TBI. Second, we compared microglial pro-inflammatory cytokines profiles between thein vitroTBI model and TBI in male mice. Additionally, we validated the role of injured neurons-derived damage-associated molecular patterns in amplifying microglial pro-inflammatory pathways using thein vitroTBI model. Third, we applied thein vitromodel for the first time to characterize the cellular metabolic profile of needle scratch injured-neuron-activated microglia, and define the role of metabolic reprogramming in mediating pro-inflammatory microglial activation and mediated neurodegeneration. Our results showed that we successfully established a novelin vitroTBI model, which closely mimics primary neuronal injury-triggered microglial pro-inflammatory activation and mediated neurodegeneration after TBI. Thisin vitromodel provides an advanced and highly translational platform for dissecting interactions in the pathologic processes of neuronal injury-microglial activation-neuronal degeneration cascade, and elucidating the detailed underlying cellular and molecular insights after TBI.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTMicroglial activation is a key component of acute neuroinflammation that leads to neurodegeneration and long-term neurologic outcome deficits after TBI. However, it is not feasible to truly dissect primary neuronal injury-induced microglia activation, and consequently mediated neurodegenerationin vivo. Furthermore, there is currently lacking ofin vitroTBI models closely mimicking the TBI primary injury-mediated microglial activation. In this study, we successfully established and validated a novelin vitroTBI model of microglial activation, and for the first time, characterized the cellular metabolic profile of microglia in this model. This novel microglial activationin vitroTBI model will help in elucidating microglial inflammatory activation and consequently associated neurodegeneration after TBI.
Temperature characteristics and heat load in the City of Dubrovnik
Authors: Boras Marijana , Herceg-Bulić Ivana , Žgela Matej , Nimac Irena
Published: November 2022

In this study, temperature characteristics and heat load in the city of Dubrovnik are investigated by using temperature data observed at the local meteorological station in Dubrovnik for the period 1961-2019, satellite data collected by LANDSAT5 satellite for the period 2001-2010, and climate indices data obtained from simulations of an urban climate model (MUKLIMO_3) for the period 2001-2010. Trends in daily mean, maximum, minimum, and seasonal temperatures were analysed by using Sen's slope and the Mann-Kendall test. Results reveal rising trends for all of the studied temperature-related elements. However, it is demonstrated that temperature increase is greatest for the summer season with the highest rise for daily maximum temperatures. The same approach was applied to examine trends of climate indices (summer days and tropical nights), which indicates an increase in the number of both summer days and tropical nights. Results of satellite data of average summer land surface temperatures for the period 2001-2010 indicate that urbanised surfaces and bare rock areas heat up more than natural surfaces with vegetation. Climate indices (summer and hot days, warm evenings, and tropical nights) simulated by the urban climate model MUKLIMO_3 also reveal that, on average, in the city of Dubrovnik urbanised surfaces heat up more than natural surfaces with vegetation and that nocturnal heat load is reduced in lower-density built-up areas.

Limits and Possibilities: Understanding and Conveying Two-Eyed Seeing Through Conventional Academic Practices
Authors: Roher Sophie Isabelle Grace , Yu Ziwa , Benoit Anita , Martin Debbie
Published: November 2022

This article offers conceptual and theoretical insights that we gained in a scoping review project to understand the Mi’kmaw guiding principle Two-Eyed Seeing/Etuaptmumk. Reflecting on the experiences and outcomes of the scoping review project, we explore the following questions: (a) To what extent can we rely only on written works and the English language to understand Two-Eyed Seeing? (b) How do academia’s conventional ways of thinking and sharing knowledge shape our abilities to understand and convey Two-Eyed Seeing to others? (c) What strategies can academics draw upon to better understand Two-Eyed Seeing? Ultimately, we contend that, to develop a richer and more nuanced understanding of Two-Eyed Seeing, we need to move beyond academic conventions and engage with a multiplicity of knowledge systems, approaches, and methods, including dialogical, visual, and experiential practices.

Published: November 2022

Dental anterior open bite is a condition which is characterised by decreased incisor dentoalveolar height. The occlusal planes in the dental anterior open bite usually diverge from the mesial to the first premolar forwardly. This case report describes the treatment of dental anterior open bite. A male patient aged 23 years presented 6.0 mm anterior open bite along with increased lower anterior facial height. Other features included incompetent lip, deficient incisor display during rest and smile, irregular upper and lower anteriors. Management included extrusion of both upper and lower anterior teeth with camouflage non-extraction therapy. There was no recurrence of anterior open bite, and a balanced occlusion was maintained during the follow up of next 2 years after treatment completion which suggested a long-term stability of occlusion.
Efficacy of icon infiltration resin on anterior teeth discoloration- A case report
Authors: Alhammadi Sara Hussain
Published: November 2022

Tooth discoloration with pronounced white color lesions within the enamel are often insufficiently masked by bleaching techniques or resin infiltration procedure alone. This frequently leads to select more invasive prosthetic restoration in order to mask the tooth color such as veneer and crowns. This article describes a minimally invasive treatment options to manage anterior tooth discoloration with suspected developmental origin. A combination of resin infiltration procedure and composite restoration was used to attain a natural tooth color. By joining the two minimally and noninvasive techniques, patient’s aesthetic expectations were met and preservation of hard tooth structure was managed. The benefits of this technique are ease of adaptation and repair in future.
EVOLUTION PROCESSES OF ACCUMULATIVE LANDFORMS AND SOIL GENESIS IN COASTAL ZONE OF UNTIDAL SEAS

Published: November 2022

The purpose of this publication is to determine and analyze natural conditions and the development of soil formation on accumulative landforms in the coastal zone of non-tidal seas. As an example, long-term instrumental measurements were used in stationary sites within the coastal sandy forms of the Black and Azov Seas, in Ukraine. The complexity, originality of the structure, and the high rate of change of these landforms make it necessary to answer the question: can typical soils be formed in such an environment, with an appropriate profile and fertility, and the ability to conduct various types of agriculture? First of all, it should be noted that the sandy coastal-marine forms, in contrast to the upland ones, are formed by the mechanical hydrogenic factors of the sea. The building material for the forms is sedimentary sediments that have undergone coastal-marine mechanical differentiation. Consequently, their composition differs in origin and hydraulic size of alluvial, aeolian, glacial, fluvial, etc. sediment on the mainland. The contours of the searched reliefs and the transverse and longitudinal profile can change dramatically within one round the clock. At the same time, waves of strong storms can completely wash away and mix the entire thickness of radical sediments together with plants, animals, groundwater of a certain composition, and accumulations of mineral and organic compounds. Also, the humus is washed out, and the humus layer cannot be fixed. But then, within 1–2 years, the studied forms are restored in a complex in general. In this case, the transverse profile is restored in a similar form in total contour. This process happens many times over several decades, and centuries yet. Therefore, the process of soil formation is always disrupted and the formation of typical soils (“pedolites” inclusive) is practically impossible in the environment of the coastal zone of the seas.

Published: November 2022

In this paper, we analyze the evolution of local planning instruments in Ukraine from Soviet times to the current state, rethinking the framework of local planning and the role of particular instruments. Planning instruments, notably local planning instruments, by their content and planning practices to a large extent reflect the social and political context of the territory and therefore they are going through significant changes in the course of transition and later transformations. The Ukrainian experience provides important insights for rethinking planning in post-transitional regions, as it illustrates how the role and functions of planning at the local level were changed, how certain instruments were transformed, and how new approaches and concepts were introduced. The paper builds upon extensive materials on the elaboration of regional planning schemes and projects, city planning and construction in the USSR, laws of Ukraine, and state construction regulations of Ukraine and reviews the main stages of local planning instruments development and transformation. The evolution of the instruments in the post-Soviet perspective in the paper is analyzed in terms of their influence on spatial development. It is argued that local planning instruments have evolved significantly, new tools have appeared, and they have become more publicly available and community-oriented, thus reflecting the ongoing rethinking of planning at the local level.
Geographic Distribution of Clinical Care for Transgender and Gender-Diverse Youth
Authors: Weixel Tara , Wildman Beth
Published: November 2022

Objectives

Geographic barriers limit access to clinical care in the United States for transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) youth. Some factors differentiating access to care are variability in state laws/policies, the number of available clinical care programs and mental health providers for TGD youth.

Methods

We aggregated data from the Human Rights Campaign for pediatric clinical care programs for TGD youth, the Movement Advancement Project for state-by-state assessment of gender identity laws and policies, and Psychology Today for mental health providers for TGD youth by state. Current prevalence rates for TGD youth were applied by state with 2020 Census data. Findings were summarized as a whole and per capita by state, region, and country overall.

Results

The South has the highest number of TGD youth per clinic (36 465–186 377), and the lowest average equality score in gender identity laws and policies (1.96). The Midwest has the highest number of TGD youth per mental health provider (278–1422). The Northeast has the lowest number of TGD youth per clinic (11 094–56 703), the highest average equality score in laws and policies per state (17.75), and the highest average number of TGD youth per mental health providers (87–444).

Conclusions

Findings support there are barriers to TGD youth care throughout the United States, especially the South and Midwest. Increasing medical and mental health care for TGD youth is likely to improve their health and well-being. Enacting gender identity protective laws/policies would allow for equal treatment and access to care among TGD youth.
fantasma da desordem

Distante da imagem harmoniosa e de Patrimônio Cultural Imaterial da Humanidade que atualmente tem a capoeira, os adeptos dessa prática cultural afro-brasileira enfrentaram, mesmo após a abolição da escravidão negra no Brasil, em 1888, um longo processo de perseguição por parte do Estado brasileiro. Na cidade de Manaus (AM), essa pecha de criminalidade também fazia parte do cotidiano dos praticantes da “capoeiragem”. Assim, este artigo analisa as campanhas jornalísticas de perseguição e criminalização da capoeiragem, no período de 1905 a 1920, nas quais é possível compreender a dura realidade desses sujeitos sociais que praticavam seus saberes em diversos cantos da “capital da borracha”, frequentemente denunciados na imprensa e reprimidos pela ação policial, em um período no qual a cidade passava por um processo modernizador, denominado Belle Époque (1880-1920), em virtude da expansão da economia gomífera. Decerto, tratou-se de um processo “civilizador” da cidade, que condenava as práticas de capoeira como “vadiagem”, e, por sua vez, estigmatizava esses sujeitos históricos como perigosos para a ordem social, com uma importante aliada: a imprensa.

Each year, the Sejm and Senate of the Republic of Poland pass the resolutions choosing the patrons of the year. Its goal is to commemorate the important – in the opinion of the members of parliament – people or events. It is also usually connected to the further commemorative activity. The aim of the paper is to analyse such resolutions regarding the year 2022. The focus is put on role of the political divisions in both chambers of the parliament and their influence on the final choice of the commemorated people or events. The analysis shows that the resolutions do not necessarily need to cause conflict – with the exception of the people who can be considered as the participants of the present political feud.
Kościół katolicki w Polsce wobec nowych zagrożeń bezpieczeństwa narodowego
Authors:   Uniwersytet Rzeszowski, Polska, Zapart Robert
Published: November 2022

The secularisation that is nowadays taking place in liberal democracies is a serious challenge for religion and its institutions. One of them is the Catholic Church which is increasingly being tested by the state in the context of its will to cooperate in the desired public spaces. In the presented scientific considerations, the author tries to prove, with the use of social science methodology, that its external and internal potential should be leveraged by the national security system. At the same time, he concludes that, in the face of threats present in Poland and the shortage of alternative entities meeting the criteria of utility desirable for the national security system, it should not, however, be excessively isolated in the public space in the future, although it may be expected that its relationship with the state will be revised depending on the current political needs.

The objective of the present article is to identify and assess gender disproportions in elections to the Senate of the Republic of Poland in single member constituencies (SMC) in 2011, 2015 and 2019. The subject literature expresses an opinion that SMCs exclude women from the bodies of the legislative power, because it is much less likely that they will be appointed candidates in the party structures dominated by men. The lack of empirical data regarding gender disparities in three elections to the Senate of the Republic of Poland prompted us to conduct research in this area. The article presents the results of the analysis of the participation of women in the Polish Senate elections, which were held ten times since the "round table" talks, with particular emphasis on the election campaigns and their results in 2011, 2015 and 2019, i.e. after the introduction of the SMCs.

Introduction. The purpose of this work is to study the gender aspect of Vietnam’s public policy, to identify the real picture of women’s political participation in the public administration system of modern Vietnam. The methodological basis is an interdisciplinary approach that allowed us to consider the evolution of Vietnam’s gender policy, the peculiarities of gender stereotypes of Vietnamese culture, to analyze the documentary base, which included the decisions of the Communist Party of Vietnam on gender equality and the advancement of women (No. 178 / Decision-TTg), the scientific project “Women in public administration today – 2020”; statistical data of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Vietnam, the National Action Plan for Sustainable Development for the period up to 2030 (No. 622 / QD-TTg). Analysis. The historical and religious causes of gender inequality in Vietnamese society, including the importance of gender stereotypes in the perception of female leaders by the public consciousness, are investigated. Based on statistical data, the ratio of men and women in the leadership pool of state power in Vietnam, as well as the reasons preventing an increase in the number of women in the leadership of state and political power, are considered. Results. The results obtained indicate the fundamental nature of the legal framework of Vietnam on gender equality, the active formation of various mechanisms for the implementation of the National Strategy for Gender Equality. However, it is noted that its implementation is still formal due to the incompleteness of the institutionalization of the legal framework on this issue, the presence of various forms of hidden discrimination, socio-psychological, religious attitudes, as well as gender stereotypes. The results of the analysis indicate the need to create a system of monitoring and control over the implementation of gender programs, more active use of international experience, integration into regional personnel policy plans, the task of increasing the female leadership. The contribution of the authors. The concept of the article, its theoretical and methodological analysis, general editing belongs to T.V. Karadzhe. The collection and systematization of the regulatory framework, the resolutions of the Communist Party and the Government of Vietnam, the analysis of statistical data on the participation of women in state and political structures was carried out by Chan Thi Mi Ngoc.
Reconstruction of the First Battles for the Central Railway Station of Stalingrad on September 14–15, 1942

Introduction. Traditionally the notion of fighting for the central station is based on the memories (in different variations) of Senior Lieutenant A.K. Dragan, who is considered commander of the 1st Company of the 1 st Battalion of Z. Chervyakov (sometimes A.K. Dragan is described as commander of the machine-gun company). The problem is that most likely the company commander was Filin, not A.K. Dragan. A.K. Dragan as one of the few survivors of the hardest battles left very important, but extremely subjective memories, which in addition are available to us in someone else’s interpretation (V.I. Chuikov or M.G. Vainrub). These memories have become the dominant narrative. Our task is to try to reconstruct the events surrounding the station on the basis of the maximum number of sources, though not reliable, but the only ones. Methods and materials. The article is written in the context of microhistorical methodology, understanding this term in the Italian rather than German research sense. We will be interested in a limited number of people in a limited territory at a specific time. We will pay special attention to the place in which the events took place; in this sense microhistory should connect with topography. Analysis. The very location of the station made it a key object in this part of the city. Located at the intersection of the city tracks from north to south (Kommunisticheskaya St.) and from west to east (Kubanskaya St.) the station has never been empty; it always housed some of the Red Army troops. Results. An analysis of the fighting of the 1 st Battalion of the 42nd Guards Regiment from the evening of 14 to 15 September allows us to answer a number of important questions. The reinforced battalion of Z.P. Chervyakov, as the advance unit of the division, was able to take advantage of the effect of surprise and immediately break through to the “Zapolotnovsky” district and seize the station building. However, subsequent events showed that Z.P. Chervyakov’s battalion had broken through too far. The 1st Battalion of Z.P. Chervyakov, which captured the central station in the morning of 15 September, was cut off from the main forces of the 42nd Guards Regiment, which had entrenched in the “too distant” station. Due to the large volume of archival materials, the authors performed the following tasks: A.K. Elokhina processed the German sources, and E.V. Stelnik – data from the Central Archive of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. The concept of the article emerged in the course of joint discussions.
To the 80th Anniversary of Professor V.A. Kitaev
Authors:   Volgograd State University, Kuznetsov Oleg
Published: November 2022

The article was prepared for the 80th anniversary of the doctor of historical sciences, professor Vladimir Anatolyevich Kitaev. Student of the outstanding soviet historian P.A. Zaionchkovsky, graduate of Gorky State University V.A. Kitaev is an authoritative expert in the field of social movement and public thought in Russia of the 19th century. V.A. Kitaev revealed and convincingly proved that the Russian thought of the 19th century sought answers to topical political and socio-economic issues on the path of ideological synthesis. Conservatism contained elements of liberalism (slavophiles); Russian liberals have not escaped the influence of conservative ideas (K.D. Kavelin, B.N. Chicherin); the journal “Bulletin of Europe” became the ancestor of social liberalism in Russia; one of the leaders of the decembrists, P.I. Pestel, in his constitutional draft attempted to combine liberalism, conservatism, and socialism. The article suggests that such an ideological synthesis could be a reflection of the ideas of the Russian people, which contained the age-old dreams of freedom and the pursuit of it, commitment to traditional national and state values, thirst for social justice. In 1983–1999 V.A. Kitaev worked at Volgograd State University. He was the first dean of the Faculty of History and permanent head of the Department of Russian History. Under his leadership the traditions of the Faculty of History (now the Institute of History, international relations and social technologies) were laid. Now V.A. Kitaev is a professor at Nizhny Novgorod State University.
DadY (PA5303) is required for fitness of Pseudomonas aeruginosa when growth is dependent on alanine catabolism
Authors: Fulton Ronnie L. , Downs Diana M.
Published: November 2022

Pseudomonas aeruginosa inhabits diverse environmental niches that can have varying nutrient composition. The ubiquity of this organism is facilitated by a metabolic strategy that preferentially utilizes low-energy, non-fermentable organic acids, such as amino acids, rather than the high-energy sugars preferred by many other microbes. The amino acid alanine is among the preferred substrates of P. aeruginosa. The dad locus encodes the constituents of the alanine catabolic pathway of P. aeruginosa. Physiological roles for DadR (AsnC-type transcriptional activator), DadX (alanine racemase), and DadA (D-amino acid dehydrogenase) have been defined in this pathway. An additional protein, PA5303, is encoded in the dad locus in P. aeruginosa. PA5303 is a member of the ubiquitous Rid protein superfamily and is designated DadY based on the data presented herein. Despite its conservation in numerous Pseudomonas species and membership in the Rid superfamily, no physiological function has been assigned to DadY. In the present study, we demonstrate that DadA releases imino-alanine that can be deaminated by DadY in vitro. While DadY was not required for alanine catabolism in monoculture, dadY mutants had a dramatic fitness defect in competition with wild-type P. aeruginosa when alanine served as the sole carbon or nitrogen source. The data presented herein support a model in which DadY facilitates flux through the alanine catabolic pathway by removing the imine intermediate generated by DadA. Functional characterization of DadY contributes to our understanding of the role of the broadly conserved Rid family members.
