Potosí, un estruendo cuyo eco dice: «No saques la plata de este cerro porque es para otros dueños»
Authors: Paganini Mateo
Published: December 2024

En este trabajo se ponen en consideración distintas versiones sobre el origen de Potosí, como las de José de Acosta (1590), la del Inca Garcilaso de la Vega (1609) y la de Bartolomé de Arzáns de Orsúa y Vela (1705-1736), para indagar las distintas perspectivas que se desprenden de cada una de ellas y a su vez, la propuesta identitaria colonial que implicaron estos relatos. Se abordan estas versiones buscando poner en diálogo los saberes de variadas disciplinas, como el Psicoanálisis, la Filosofía latinoamericana, los Estudios culturales y la Historia; bajo la hipótesis de que las identidades hibridas que implica el discurso colonial, se inscriben en los desfasajes temporales del relato, sobre los cuales se encuentran pasados que justifiquen la explotación colonial, como así también anuncios premonitorios que fundamentan las desigualdades y las instauran como el futuro de la civilización.

Authors: Kang Enci
Published: December 2024

Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T)therapy has reflected unprecedented success in treatment of hematological malignancies. It has been widely adopted as well. Moreover, there are continuously more therapeutic targets being explored. Though successful, CAR-T therapy has also presented limitations that might be fatal, such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and patient relapse. Patient relapse can be mainly attributed to antigen loss, which can be dealt with by several innovative methods. Other than the above drawbacks, CAR-T cell therapy is criticized of its high cost as it is a personlized therapy. To deal with this problem, universal CAR-T cells are under exploration and development, which can greatly reduce the cost of the therapy. This review will focus on the current drawbacks of CAR-T cell therapy in hematological malignancies, such as toxicity, relapse and unaffordable costs involved, and present some corresponding practical methods to mitigate them. In the wider application of CAR-T cell therapy, more problems and obstacles will be faced in the future. Innovative therapies are urgently needed to alleviate its defects and relapse risks, while methods to reduce costs should continue to be explored.

Overview of Structure Design and Development of Analog to Digital Converter
Authors: Wang Junyi
Published: December 2024

The article summarizes the development of analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) based on existing literature and data research. ADC plays a crucial role in many fields due to its analog-to-digital conversion function, but ADC has always been a bottleneck field in China, so it is important to develop ADC vigorously. This article first introduces three mainstream ADC architectures: Flash ADC, ADC, and SAR ADC. Next, it compares the gap in ADC development between China and foreign countries, and the research results show that there are significant gaps between China and foreign countries in three aspects. In terms of high-speed, most international ADCs use hybrid architectures, and many employ time-interleaving (TI) technology, which is scarcely used in China. In terms of high precision, domestic technologies such as noise shaping are often used to process noise and improve accuracy, while foreign methods are more varied. For low power consumption, most domestic and foreign improvements are based on SAR ADC. Finally, the future development direction of ADC is discussed, and new ADCs, mainly hybrid architecture ADCs and new architecture ADCs, are expected to play a pivotal role in advancing the field.

Authors: Lizana María José
Published: December 2024

El presente artículo analiza la relación entre el devenir sujeto a través del rechazo anoréxico desde la perspectiva psicoanalítica lacaniana, encontrando que dicho rechazo no es universal, sino que cumple funciones específicas en la subjetividad de cada persona con anorexia. A partir de esta temática, se abordan los tres registros de Lacan, la adolescencia, la identidad y el ravage materno, conceptos clave para explicar y reflexionar, desde la clínica psicoanalítica, sobre la maniobra de separación que imparte la anorexia desde su radicalidad. Además, se explora cómo, mediante un proceso de identificación, la identidad de cada sujeto se fija a la anorexia, con el temor a perderla. Asimismo, se trabajan temáticas como el amor y lo perverso en el vínculo con el Otro Primordial. El objetivo principal de este escrito apunta a visibilizar la radicalidad con la que una persona puede actuar para no quedar como objeto de este Otro Primordial, sino devenir en sujeto de deseo.

Published: December 2024

The period of 2018 to 2023 saw both four changes in the Malaysian government and a geopolitical game between great powers in the Asian-Pacific region. Especially, 2020 saw both change in the Malaysian government as well as the outbreak of COVID-19—inevitably affecting Malaysia’s attitude towards the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) both politically and economically. Hence, this study collects BRI reports from the mainstream Malaysian media—New Straits Times (NST)—from 2018 to 2023. Using corpus-based critical discourse analysis as the research framework, this study builds two target corpora for the periods of 2018-2019 and 2020-2023, respectively. Through comparative analysis of the reports amount, thematic terms, and concordance lines, this study examines NST’s attitude towards the BRI and changes of attitude. The research findings firstly indicate a dynamic upward trend in NST’s coverage of the BRI; secondly, the content of NST’s reports shows a trend of diversification; and thirdly, while it expresses concerns about issues such as China’s rise and challenges to security in the Southeast Asian region, NST’s attitude towards the BRI remains positive overall, with no significant changes. This study explores Malaysia’s attitudes towards the BRI from the perspective of news discourse analysis—providing both a perspective for enhancing mutual understanding between China and Malaysia, and further understanding of the status of China-Malaysia cooperation under the BRI.
The role of placenta Hofbauer cells during pregnancy and pregnancy complications
Authors: Yang Seung-Woo , Hwang Han-Sung , Kang Young-Sun
Published: December 2024

Placental Hofbauer cells (HBCs) are specialized macrophages present in the human placenta that play a crucial role in maintaining a healthy pregnancy. These cells are derived from the fetal mesoderm and are responsible for various functions, including immune regulation, angiogenesis, and nutrient transport. In normal pregnancies, HBCs primarily exhibit an M2 or immunomodulatory phenotype, which helps maintain a tolerant and antiinflammatory environment at the maternal-fetal interface. However, in pregnancies complicated by conditions such as immunological disorders, inflammation, or infection, the phenotype and function of HBCs may be altered. Although emerging evidence has highlighted the vital role of HBCs in both normal pregnancies and those with complications, such as chorioamnionitis, gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, and viral infections, their role remains unclear. Recent research also suggests a relationship between HBCs and the development of diseases in offspring. Understanding the role of HBCs in pregnancy could provide insights into the pathophysiology of various pregnancy-related disorders and offer potential therapeutic targets for improving maternal and fetal outcomes. This review explores the functions of HBCs in normal pregnancy and their involvement in complications, emphasizing their potential as biomarkers or targets for interventions aimed at reducing the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Additionally, we reviewed their potential for perinatal research in recent studies.

To support states involved in the policy debate on military artificial intelligence (AI), this background paper provides a deeper examination of the issue of bias in military AI. Three insights arise.

First, policymakers could usefully develop an account of bias in military AI that captures shared concern around unfairness. If so, ‘bias in military AI’ might be taken to refer to the systemically skewed performance of a military AI system that leads to unjustifiably different behaviours—which may perpetuate or exacerbate harmful or discriminatory outcomes—depending on such social characteristics as race, gender and class.

Second, among the many sources of bias in military AI, three broad categories are prominent: bias in society; bias in data processing and algorithm development; and bias in use.

Third, bias in military AI can have various humanitarian consequences depending on context and use. These range from misidentifying people and objects in targeting decisions to generating flawed assessments of humanitarian needs.
Fragmentation in Brian Friel's Selected Plays

Published: December 2024

Reared in Northern Ireland, Brian Friel has experienced the dividedness of his country ever since childhood. He addresses issues such as the workings of memory, history, and past on the people of Ballybeg. The aim of this research is to shed light on the techniques of fragmentation which Friel has experimented with. He has subverted and destabilized conventional stage realism favored by dramatists. As a theme or technique, fragmentation finds its explicit reflection in the critical and dramaturgical analysis of Friel’s Philadelphia Here I Come (1964), Faith Healer (1979), and Translations (1980). Using his conceit and theatrical dramatic excellence, Friel successfully manages to present fragmented discourses and even characters that, torn between two diverse selves, come to suffer from uncertainty and loss.

Authors: الحربي همدان طاهر محمد علي
Published: December 2024

تهدف الدراسة إلى تحديد التعريف المناسب للأمر الجزائي، ونطاق تطبيقه، وتسليط الضوء على السلطة المختصة بإصداره، وضوابطه في قانون الأحكام العامة للمخالفات اليمني بالمقارنة مع قانون الإجراءات الجزائية الإماراتي وقانون الإجراءات الجنائية المصري، وتوصلت الدراسة إلى نتائج متعددة أبرزها: أن المشرع اليمني لم يُعرف الأمر الجزائي، وقصر نطاق تطبيقه في المخالفات فقط دون الجرائم غير الجسيمة، وعقوبات الغرامة المقررة قانونًا، والمصادرة، ورد الشيء إلى أصله، ولم يفرق بين الغرامة كعقوبة أصلية وغيرها من العقوبات التكميلية، تفرض في حق الأشخاص الطبيعية، والأشخاص المعنوية الخاصة، واعتبر النيابة العامة هي السلطة الوحيدة المختصة بإصداره، كما أحاط مشروعية إصداره بضوابط إجرائية وشكلية، مع إمكانية إلغائه من قبل النائب العام ومن يُعينه من رؤساء النيابة العامة، وجواز الاعتراض عليه أمام المحكمة الابتدائية المختصة متى ما تحققت شروطه، وإلا صار نهائيًا نافذًا، ومن أبرز توصيات الدراسة: على المشرع اليمني إعادة النظر في أحكام قانون الأحكام العامة للمخالفات ولائحته التنفيذية، وإعادة تنظيم أحكام المخالفات الجزائية في قانون الجرائم والعقوبات، وتنظيم أحكام الأمر الجزائي في قانون الإجراءات الجزائية؛ لعدم وجود مبرر مقنع من تنظيمها في قانون مستقل، والتباس أحكامه بأحكام غيره.

مسرح الشارع تعبيرة عن هيمنة التجول الرقمي و تهميش الذات الابداعية داخل الغابة المسرحية
Authors: FRIOUI Hela
Published: December 2024

أوجد الإنسان منذ القدم الفن الدرامي ومسرح الشارع على وجه الخصوص كمطية لتعزيز صورة الإنسان الجوهرية كذات مبدعة تروم معانقة الجمال والحرية. لكن الإبداع الرقمي القائم على جمالية الصورة في رونقها وسرعتها أسهم في تغييب كلي للذات بل تهميشا لها. وبالتالي فالإبداعات الرقمية ماهي إلا دعوة صارخة إلى مسايرة صورة ظاهرية منمقة وساحرة. وتعبير واضح وجلي عما يعتمل في أعماق الإنسان من رواسب وهموم وتطلعات. ولاسيما أنها مسكونة بهاجس الفعل الإبداعي الدائم، للبحث عن التميز واستشراف مستقبل زاخر بالتجديد، بعيدا عن كل ما من شأنه أن يجعل العمل الفني في المسرح مغتربا عن الذات العربية عامة ، ومحورية الإنسان لضمان عزته واستمراريته خاصة. ولكن مهما استجدت التكنولوجيا التي اجتاحت المسرح، فلن تتعدى تطوير مشهد جمالية الصورة، وبكلمة أدق لن تستطيع ملامسة روح الفن وجوهره. لأنه يبقى حتما ساميا لا يشكله و لا يظهر سحره سوى المضمون، وهو كنه الأشياء وجوهرها. لذلك نعتبر ظهور مسرح الشارع بتونس، محاولة إبداعية جديدة ترسم لبناتها الأولى بالاستناد إلى الممثل وهو إعادة ضمنية للمكانة السامية التي سلبها التطور الرقمي الحديث. ولعل هذه النقلة التي هَزَّت أركان عالمنا الراهن، " أهمية الوعي بالثقافة الرقمية والتكنولوجيا في حياتنا، والاستثمار الواعي لشبكات التواصل الافتراضي... والانتباه إلى تأثيراتها على المجتمع وعلى التوجهات الثقافية وعلى الهوية".(امنة الربيع، 2022،ص،02).

ملخص: تناول البحث مفهوم إدارة الوقت وهدف ايضا الي معرفة مضيعات الوقت و الحد من مضيعات الوقت للموظف او المدير، وكذلك معرفة كيفية استثمار الوقت ، وهدف الي التعرف على الاستراتيجيات الفعالة لإدارة الوقت في بيئات العمل الحديثة، اعتمد الباحث على المنهج الوصفي التحليلي، وتوصل الي ان هنالك مجموعة من مضيعات الوقت لدى المديرين أهمها كثرة الاتصالات الهاتفية الخاصة اثناء العمل :عدم القدرة على قول(لا) والزيارات المفاجئة التي تهدر الكثير من الوقت دون تحقيق نتائج تتعلق بالعمل، كذلك الاجتماعات الغير ضرورية، وعدم التخطيط المسبق للعمل، ويجب على الإدارة العليا والعاملين الاهتمام بوقت العمل اكثر من الاهتمام باي جانب اخر، لان كل شي يمكن تعويضه او إيجاد بديل عنه الا الوقت فإذا ضاع لن يعوض.
