The books in the earliest library of the University of Santo Tomas
Authors:   Monash University, Crossley John
Published: January 2023

It has recently been confirmed that many books were brought to the Philippines from Europe in the 1564 expedition of Miguel López de Legazpi. Fr. Martín de Rada, OSA, later brought books from China and he also possessed European books. It is well-known that Fr. Benavides gave his books in founding the University of Santo Tomas. The earlier UST Archivist, Fr. Jesús Gayo, analyzed the writings of Fr. Benavides, so we know to what books he referred. Building on this earlier work by Fr. Gayo, and other more recent work, we are now able to give a picture of more than fifty titles of books that were very likely in the library of the University of Santo Tomas when it began. We also know of five people whose books entered the library at that very early stage. Besides Fr. Benavides, there were Fr. Diego de Soria, OP, Archbishop Ignacio Santibáñez, OFM, the government fiscal Hierónimo Salazar y Salcedo, and Hernando de los Ríos Coronel, the Procurator General of the Philippines. Most of the books are on religious matters and Dominicans wrote fourteen of them. The fifty books listed are still in the Heritage Library of the University of Santo Tomas.

Temperature plays significant role in the oxidation of ammonia in filtration units of recirculating aquaculture system. The impact of temperature on the abundance of ammonia oxidizing archaea and bacteria, and the expression of ammonia oxidizing gene (amoA) at specific temperature was evaluated. The broken earthen pot pieces used as filter bed materials of recirculating system, showing the presence of microorganisms were introduced in glass containers (5 pieces/5l) filled with synthetic wastewater and exposed to four different temperatures of 10, 20, 30 and 40°C for 40 days. The ammonia oxidation rate was minimum at 10°C. In 20, 30 and 40°C treatments, 99% ammonia was reduced on day-18, 8 and 18, respectively compared to the initial day. Fresh ammonium chloride (2 mM) was added twice to maintain the ammonia concentration in all treatments, except 10°C one. Nitrite-N level was < 1 mg/l at 10°C. The level was highest on day-22 at 20° and 40°C and on day-12 at 30°C. The nitrification was 10 days delayed at 20°C and 40°C compared to 30°C treatment. Concentration of nitrate-N was lowest at 10°C. Highest concentration of nitrate-N was observed on day-40 at 20°C and 40°C and day-26 at 30°C. Highest copy number of bacterial amoA was recorded at 30°C (2.59×107) followed by 20°C (4.08×106), 40°C (1.45×106) and 10°C (5.664×103). Archaeal amoA was highest at 30°C (7.47×103) followed by 40°C (2.98×102) and 20°C (46.8) treatments. Hence it may be concluded that 30°C temperature was optimum for the efficient and faster oxidation of ammonia in the present recirculating system.

The silkworm is by nature very delicate and sensitive to environmental conditions. The ecological factors, chiefly temperature, humidity and light during rearing show significant effect on growth larvae and finally cocoon crop quality. Silkworms are photosensitive and they have a tendency to crawl towards dim light. They do not like either strong light or complete darkness. In this way, based on various exposures of light on the effect of biochemical content and economic traits of silkworm were recorded. Biochemical content such as protein is highly essential for insects. The intracellular transport of the silk protein is dependent on hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity of the amino acid residues of the heavy and light chain of the silk protein and the haemolymph is the only extracellular fluid of insects with diverse functions and serves as reservoir for the products required for every physiological activity of the insect body, thus changes in the composition of haemolymph reflect the physiological and biochemical transformations taking place in the insect tissue. In this way of study, effect of light on biochemical content such as protein and carbohydrate of haemolyph and silk gland are significantly increased. The protein content was high in the haemolymph (17.48%) when the larvae exposed to 5 watt light and silk gland (66.67%) in 3 watt exposure group but fat body (44.33 %) when the larvae exposed to 8 watt. The carbohydrate content of haemolymph (35.54 %), silk gland (12.85%) and fat body (57.26 %) were significantly increased in 3 watt exposure group. In this findings, biochemical content had direct relation to economic traits of B. mori. The cocoon characters such as cocoon weight (28.42 per cent), pupal weight (20.9 per cent), shell weight (71 per cent) and shell ratio (33.48 per cent) were significantly increased in the 3 watt exposed group.

Hip dislocations following trauma are a common occurrence in the emergency room. Since the hip is a ball and socket joint with concomitant muscular and ligamentous attachments, it often takes a large amount of force to dislocate a hip. Due to the needed force, hip dislocations frequently come together with additional serious injuries. 90% of the time, hip trauma appears as a posterior dislocation when detected because the anterior ligaments are stronger. The rectus femoris, gluteal muscles, and short external rotators make up dynamic muscular support. 95% of patients who had a hip dislocation following a car accident also had an accompanying injury that needed hospital treatment. Therefore, a thorough neurologic and musculoskeletal evaluation with further x-rays or CT scans for assessment is required in cases with native hip dislocation. Standard AP (anteroposterior) scans of the pelvis often show hip dislocations clearly. However, a cross-table lateral of the injured joint is often included in comprehensive imaging. Hip dislocations can be more difficult to reduce than other types of dislocations, and most patients need procedural anaesthesia to make the reduction easier. Before considering surgical reduction, experts advise making up to three closed reduction efforts. However, 10% of hip dislocations may not be treatable in the emergency room and require surgical reduction under general anaesthesia.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterised by the presence of kidney damage or an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). Patients with more advanced stage 3 or stage 4 CKD experience a higher incidence of cardiovascular events and mortality. Because chronic kidney disease is a growing health concern, family physicians must be equipped to care for this unique patient population. Practice recommendations encourage proactive care of cardiovascular risk, the side effects of metabolic bone disease, and anaemia in these individuals as well as surveillance for increasing kidney disease. Primary care physicians (PCPs) are on the front lines of identifying and treating CKD as early as possible. However, the majority of PCPs frequently miss the existence of CKD. Additionally, the majority of patients with stages 3 and 4 CKD are not co-managed by nephrologists, despite the fact that increasing nephrologists' engagement in the care of these patients has been associated with improved dialysis-free survival. Early detection and treatment of these issues can stop the onset of subsequent sequelae, thus they shouldn't wait till nephrology is involved. This patient population also need appropriate counselling and health maintenance, both of which should be provided by the family doctor overseeing the patient's care.

Background: Cytomegalovirus (CMV)-associated gastrointestinal disorders are typically seen in immune-compromised patients; nevertheless, a few cases have been reported in healthy hosts, despite the fact that the pathogenic mechanisms are yet unknown. Various lesions, including erythematous mucosa, erosions, and ulcers, are brought on by CMV esophagitis, albeit these inflammatory alterations can also be seen in nearby or superficial esophageal malignancies. Cancer patients with late and/or terminal stages of the disease have also been known to develop CMV-associated esophagitis due to immunosuppression brought on by chemotherapy or the physiological demands of the cancer itself.

Objectives: To identify the prevalence of cytomegalovirus esophagitis, describe the evaluation of cytomegalovirus esophagitis and outline the causes of cytomegalovirus esophagitis.

Methods: For article selection, the PubMed database and EBSCO Information Services were used. All relevant articles relevant with our topic and other articles were used in our review. Other articles that were not related to this field were excluded. The data was extracted in a specific format that was reviewed by the group members.

Conclusion: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) esophagitis, which can result from illnesses including human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and treatments like post-organ transplantation, long-term dialysis, and systemic steroid therapy, is mostly brought on by systemic immune deficiency. Primary CMV infection, however, can result in serious organ-specific consequences with high morbidity and fatality rates. In immune-competent people, severe CMV infections can have an impact on practically every system.

Manifest ohne Grenzen
Authors: Ai Weiwei
Published: January 2023

Der Künstler und Aktivist Ai Weiwei ist weltweit berühmt. Mit seiner Kunst baut er Brücken, kämpft zeitlebens dafür, Verbindungsachsen der Kommunikation zu schaffen, zu pflegen und auszuweiten. Ob einzelne Objekte wie seine »Coca-Cola-Vase«, Arrangements wie »Forever Bicycles« oder Installationen wie »Sunflower Seeds«: Ai Weiweis Werke finden sich im öffentlichen Raum zahlloser Länder, renommierte Museen reißen sich um seine Artefakte. Wer aber ist der Mensch hinter dem internationalen Label »Ai Weiwei«, was sind die Beweggründe seiner rastlosen Kreativität? 1957 als Sohn des chinesischen Dichters und Regimekritikers Ai Quing geboren, wächst Ai Weiwei aufgrund des Zwangsexils des Vaters in der Mandschurei und Xinjiang auf, lebt anschließend in den USA. 2011 wird er – zurück in China – an der Ausreise gehindert und für 81 Tage inhaftiert. Von 2015 bis 2020 lebte er in Berlin, gerade zog er nach Großbritannien, um, wie er selbst es ausdrückt, weiterzuziehen auf seiner notwendigen Reise. Geprägt durch schmerzhafteste Erlebnisse auf diesen Stationen stellt sich bei Ai Weiwei früh das Gefühl ein, ein Fremder zu sein. Gerade diese existenzielle Fremdheitserfahrung transformiert Ai Weiwei über seine Kunst jedoch ins Universelle: Vor allem sein weltweit gezeigter Film »Human Flow«, eine groß angelegte Recherche über die Flüchtlingsbewegungen rund um den Erdball, zeugt von dieser Sensibilität. Kein Zufall also auch, dass seine philosophischen Reflexionen im Buch konkret an jenen Herbst 2015 erinnern, ab dem sich in Deutschland alles veränderte. Ai Weiwei hatte jene Wochen in Berlin erlebt, ehe er entschied, sich aufzumachen und Flüchtlingscamps rund um den Globus zu besuchen. Seine Erinnerungen werden nun in diesem Buch, seinem »Manifest ohne Grenzen«, zur Confessio – jenseits von l´art pour l´art und dem technokratischen Sprech der Politiker: Auf eindringliche, mitunter irritierende, aber immer zuhörende Weise wird in diesem Buch spürbar, was dies sein könnte: ein Appell zu friedvoller Kommunikation, ein Akt freundschaftlicher Humanität – ein tiefes Engagement in unserer Zeit.

Ein künstlerisch hochwertigstes Buch von außergewöhnlicher Haptik. Zahlreiche chinesische Kalligrafien im Innenteil. Das persönlichste Buch von Ai Weiwei.
Das große Nein
Authors: Nassehi Armin
Published: January 2023

Klimaproteste, Gelbwesten, PEGIDA, Occupy, Hongkong, Arabellion – die Anlässe sind vielfältig, die Inhalte unterschiedlich, und doch ist all diesen Protestbewegungen eines gemein: ihre formale Ähnlichkeit. Protest wird dann wahrscheinlich, wenn Interessen, Geltungsansprüche und Kritik an sich selbst erleben, dass sie sich in den eingefahrenen Routinen einer trägen Gesellschaft nicht durchsetzen können. Einerseits wird Protest damit zum Demokratiegenerator, versucht andererseits aber jener Vetospieler zu sein, den moderne Gesellschaftsstrukturen nicht zulassen. Die Grenzen, an die der Protest hierdurch stößt, initiieren eine merkwürdige Steigerungslogik und münden in einer strukturell tragischen Konstellation: In den Mühlsteinen der Gesellschaft, die es schafft, alle Opposition zu integrieren, verpufft der Protest.

Dieses Buch erklärt, wie aus Kritik Protest wird, wie er eingebettet ist in die Kommunikationslogik unserer Zeit, wie sich seine Eigendynamik entfaltet und worin genau die Tragik des Protests besteht – ein Vademecum für all diejenigen, die gegenwärtige Protestformen ganz unterschiedlicher Couleur verstehen wollen. Keine Protestschrift, sondern eine Schrift über den Protest – über einen Sichtbarkeitsgenerator, der gesellschaftlichen Konflikten einen Ausdruck verleiht.

Published: January 2023

Background: This study aimed to explore the correlations of programmed death-1 (PD-1) and CC chemokine ligand 20 (CCL20) with Treg/T helper 17 (Th17) balance in patients with HBV-ACLF. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 50 patients with HBV-ACLF and 50 cases with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) diagnosed from February 2021 to February 2022 were selected, and another 50 healthy volunteers who received physical examinations in the same period were selected as a control group. The expression levels of PD-1, CCL20, and Treg/Th17 cytokines were detected by Western blotting, immunoturbidimetry, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), respectively. The correlations of PD-1 and CCL20 with Treg/Th17 cytokines were explored by Pearson analysis. The predictive values of PD-1, CCL20, and Treg/Th17 cytokines for the prognosis of HBV-ACLF patients were analyzed. Results: The expression levels of PD-1 and CCL20 were higher in the HBV-ACLF group than in the CHB and control groups (P < 0.05). Severe HBV-ACLF patients had higher levels of PD-1 and CCL20 compared with mild and moderate HBV-ACLF patients (P < 0.05). Hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure patients with poor prognosis had higher levels of PD-1 and CCL20 than those with good prognosis (P < 0.05). The levels of transforming growth factor β (TGF-β), interleukin 10 (IL-10), IL-23, and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) were higher in the HBV-ACLF group than in the CHB and control groups (P < 0.05). The levels of PD-1 and CCL20 in the HBV-ACLF group were positively correlated with those of Treg/Th17 cytokines (TGF-β, IL-10, IL-23, and TNF-α; P < 0.05). The combined detection of PD-1, CCL20, and Treg/Th17 cytokines had higher sensitivity and lower specificity than single detection in predicting the prognosis of HBV-ACLF patients (P < 0.05). Conclusions: The expression levels of PD-1 and CCL20 are higher in HBV-ACLF patients, being correlated with Treg/Th17 balance. The combined detection of PD-1, CCL20, and Treg/Th17 cytokines has a higher value for predicting the prognosis of HBV-ACLF patients.

Published: January 2023

Background: Military personnel need to be in optimal physical fitness and ready for action. Currently used physical training programs are mainly based on cardiovascular routines that do not fulfill all physical requirements. Feasible and easy-accessible training programs are needed to improve strength-related physical performance. Objectives: The current study aims to investigate the effectiveness of a suspension-training program with the total body resistance exercise band in physical fitness, biomechanical lower extremity injury risk factors, mental health, and work-related factors in navy personnel. Methods: To conduct this parallel-group randomized controlled trial, 50 young men aged 18 to 28 years will be recruited. The intervention group performs suspension training (three times a week for 8 weeks) in addition to their daily duties; however, the control group continues their daily duties. The primary outcome is physical performance. The secondary outcomes include biomechanical lower extremity injury risk factors, mental health, and work-related factors. Discussion: This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a randomized controlled trial of suspension training in performance, lower extremity frontal plane kinematics, job satisfaction, workability, and quality of life in navy personnel. This trial might provide new insights for various experts and military coaches and suspension-training programs can be used as new methods to meet all military personnel demands with minimum facilities.

Background: Job burnout is a prolonged response to chronic emotional and interpersonal stressors. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate job burnout and identify its effective predictors among health sector employees during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: This cross-sectional study encompassed 1898 employees of the Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences in the summer of 2020. Logistic regression was used to determine factors associated with job burnout. The required data were collected electronically using the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) and analyzed with SPSS software version 26 and R4.0.2 software. Results: Of 1898 participants, 74.3% were female. Composite job burnout (CJB), emotional exhaustion (EE), and depersonalization (DP) were the most common at low levels, whereas reduced personal accomplishment (RPA) was the most frequent at moderate levels. In this regard, factors such as female gender, age groups of 40 - 49 and ≥ 50 years, and exposure to COVID-19 were the main independent risk factors for job burnout. Conclusions: Reduced personal accomplishment was moderate despite relatively low levels of job burnout, EE, and DP. Accordingly, effective interventions are suggested to improve different aspects of the work-life with an emphasis on critical situations. Moreover, regarding the significant relationship between job burnout with gender, age, and exposure to COVID-19, it is recommended to increase the employees’ knowledge about job burnout.

Hasil penelitian menyatakan bahwa, orang tua Katolik memiliki pengetahuan tentang apa saja nama baptis yang bisa diberikan. Orang tua Katolik menerapkannya dengan memberikan nama baptis kepada anaknya tetapi, orang tua tidak memahami apa kisah dari nama baptis yang diberikan, serta apa yang dapat diteladani dari nama tersebut, sehingga peran dari nama baptis tersebut sama saja tanpa ada perbedaan dengan nama yang lain. Untuk mengatasi hal tersebut, Gereja Katolik perlu berusaha untuk mengadakan program pembinaan, perlu adanya usaha dari gereja paroki untuk membuat program pembinaan bagi orang tua Katolik yang ingin membaptis anaknya oleh petugas pastoral. Setidaknya dengan adanya program tersebut maka pengetahuan dan pemahaman orang tua Katolik semakin bertambah dan dapat diterapkan ketika hendak membaptis sang anak.

Descartes’ “Lumen Naturale”
Authors: Filler James ,   Gnomon Center for the Humanities
Published: January 2023

The lumen naturale plays an important role in the philosophy of Descartes, particularly in the Meditations. Yet, while its analysis has not been completely neglected, the lumen naturale has hardly received the philosophical examination it deserves. While it is not possible in so short a pa­per to entirely remedy this deficiency, I do hope in this article to provide some insights into Descartes’ understanding of this concept. In this light, I will seek to examine Descartes’ understanding of the lumen naturale in terms of how it functions and its object(s) in order to understand what, if anything, the lumen naturale tells us about the world around us.
Freedom: Created or Uncreated
Authors: Knežević Aleksandar ,   Gnomon Center for the Humanities
Published: January 2023

There are two reasons why Christian theology introduces the concept of the absolute nothing into its doctrine of creation. Firstly, unlike platonic non-being, the absolute nihil is not eternally co-existent with God and it does not limit His creative freedom. We notice that God’s freedom is identified with the freedom to create. Platonic non-being represented a necessity. To create, therefore, means to be able to overcome every form of necessity. The concept of the absolute nothing, therefore, needs to provide an ontological ground for the creation of the absolute novum. Sergius Bulgakov and Nikolai Berdyaev, the authors I am quoting in this essay, agree that the apology of the world is inconceivable on the level of monistic ontology, for which substance or ousia is the main category. They are aware that simultaneous communion and otherness between God and the world is imaginable only on the level of the person or hypostasis. Christian theology introduces absolute nothing to secure God’s creative freedom. God is free if He can overcome givenness and create a newness in being. But Bulgakov stresses that to “create out of nothing” means that God creates out of Himself. God can create only what is already given in Him. Berdyaev’s God does not create out of Himself but out of uncreated freedom. Berdyaev explicitly confirms uncreatedness of freedom by stressing that this freedom is outside of God. This is why God can break through the givenness of the world and create an absolute newness.
