Role of NLRP3 inflammasome in systemic sclerosis
Authors: Lin Cong , Jiang Zhixing , Cao Ling , Zou Hejian , Zhu Xiaoxia
Published: August 2022

Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune rheumatic disease with high mortality, which is featured by inflammation, vascular damage, and aggressive fibrosis. To date, the pathogenesis of SSc remains unclear and effective treatments are still under research. Active NLRP3 recruits downstream proteins such as ASC and caspase-1 and assembles into inflammasome, resulting in excretion of inflammatory cytokines including IL-1β and IL-18, as well as in pyroptosis mediated by gasdermin D. Various studies demonstrated that NLRP3 inflammasome might be involved in the mechanism of tenosynovitis, arthritis, fibrosis, and vascular damage. The pathophysiological changes might be due to the activation of proinflammatory Th2 cells, profibrotic M2 macrophages, B cells, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells. Here, we review the studies focused on NLRP3 inflammasome activation, its association with innate and adaptive immune cells, endothelium injury, and differentiation of fibroblasts in SSc. Furthermore, we summarize the prospect of therapy targeting NLRP3 pathway.
Parents’ perceptions on policies of early childhood care and education programmes in selected states of Malaysia
Authors: Tang Dandan , Peng Chew Fong , Abdul Rahman MohdNazri , Dhamotharan Mogana
Published: August 2022

Background:

The 2030 agenda for sustainable development proposed global equitable quality education and lifelong learning opportunities for all children. The quality of early childhood care and education (ECCE) programs helps shape children’s minds, attitudes and behaviors, and has short and long-term effects on a child, a family and a country. In Malaysia, the government has formulated some policies and laws to protect children’s rights. However, ECCE is facing some challenges. The purpose of this study is to investigate parents’ perceptions of the quality of ECCE programs implemented by Malaysian government.

Methods: A mixed method was used to collect data on parents’ perceptions of ECCE policies in selected states in Malaysia. The questionnaires, (P1/POL) from the research project “Development of a Comprehensive and Integrated Model of Quality Malaysian ECCE”, were distributed among 629 respondents who have a child in a preschool, and 22 participants were randomly selected to take part in five focus group interviews

Results: The key findings of the study revealed 68% parents were not familiar with ECCE Malaysian government policy, however 84.3% stressed it is important for the government to educate them about ECCE. Thus findings indicated that the majority of parents lack awareness of the ECCE policies and quality of early childhood care and education programs related to the policies remain the issue. While interviewing the focus group ,most of them were not aware of ECCE and pointed out parents are stressing children’s academic learning in particular preschools.

Conclusions: It is concluded that parents’ awareness regarding the ECCE program must be part of the policies and needs to improve. It is recommended that the government of Malaysia should supply more information on ECCE policies to parents and focus on policy implementation. Moreover, the quality of ECCE programs should be improved based on the parents’ perceptions.
Deep-turbulence phase compensation using tiled arrays
Authors: Spencer Mark F. , Brennan Terry J.
Published: August 2022

Tiled arrays use modulo-2π phase compensation and coherent beam combination to correct for the effects of deep turbulence. As such, this paper uses wave-optics simulations to compare the closed-loop performance of tiled arrays to a branch-point-tolerant phase reconstructor known as LSPV+7 [Appl. Opt. 53, 3821 (2014)10.1364/AO.53.003821]. The wave-optics simulations make use of a point-source beacon and are setup with weak-to-strong scintillation conditions. This setup enables a trade-space exploration in support of a power-in-the-bucket comparison with LSPV+7. In turn, the results show that tiled arrays outperform LSPV+7 when transitioning from weak-to-strong scintillation conditions. These results are both encouraging and informative for those looking to tackle the branch-point problem in adaptive optics.
High fat diets induce early changes in gut microbiota that may serve as markers of ulterior altered physiological and biochemical parameters related to metabolic syndrome. Effect of virgin olive oil in comparison to butter
Authors: Andújar-Tenorio Natalia , Prieto Isabel , Cobo Antonio , Martínez-Rodríguez Ana M. , Hidalgo Marina , Segarra Ana Belén , Ramírez Manuel , Gálvez Antonio , Martínez-Cañamero Magdalena
Published: August 2022

Butter and virgin olive oil (EVOO) are two fats differing in their degree of saturation and insaponifiable fraction. EVOO, enriched in polyphenols and other minority components, exerts a distinct effect on health. Using next generation sequencing, we have studied early and long-term effects of both types of fats on the intestinal microbiota of mice, finding significant differences between the two diets in the percentage of certain bacterial taxa, correlating with hormonal, physiological and metabolic parameters in the host. These correlations are not only concomitant, but most noticeably some of the changes detected in the microbial percentages at six weeks are correlating with changes in physiological values detected later, at twelve weeks.Desulfovibrionaceae/Desulfovibrio/D.sulfuricansstand out by presenting at six weeks a statistically significant higher percentage in the butter-fed mice with respect to the EVOO group, correlating with systolic blood pressure, food intake, water intake and insulin at twelve weeks. This not only suggests an early implication in the probability of developing altered physiological and biochemical responses later on in the host lifespan, but also opens the possibility of using this genus as a marker in the risk of suffering different pathologies in the future.

TSAW—a lifelong challenge or simply an unsolved mystery?
Authors: Prohaska Thomas
Published: August 2022

The table of standard atomic weights (TSAW) provides of the numbers included in all reprints of the periodic tables of the elements, in all textbooks in schools, high schools and universities, found on the internet, and numerous databases [1]. Whenever one needs to relate masses of an element to molar quantities, standard atomic weights come into the play. They are of fundamental importance in science, education, technology, industries, trade and commerce. It is therefore not surprising that the determination of atomic weights has a central role in chemistry. Also, it is not surprising that it needs a whole commission of experts to set-up such table with highest confidence even though at first sight it seems to be a simple compilation of numbers. That commission of experts is the Commission on Isotopic Abundances and Atomic Weights (referred to as the Commission in the text). (For more information about the Commission visit ciaaw.org).
PEMODELAN AIR TANAH PADA TAMBANG TERBUKA ANDESIT DI DESA DADIREJO, KECAMATAN BAGELEN, KABUPATEN PURWOREJO, PROVINSI JAWA TENGAH
Authors: Mulyadi Dodi , Rosadi Peter Eka
Published: August 2022

Pemodelan air tanah merupakan peniruan kondisi air tanah secara dua dimensi maupun tiga dimensi untuk memperkirakan adanya perubahan kondisi muka air tanah di masa mendatang akibat adanya pengembangan air tanah atau akibat pengelolaan baru, baik perubahan alam maupun aktifitas manusia. Akibat adanya kegiatan penambangan tentunya akan mempengaruhi kondisi muka air tanah di wilayah tersebut. Tujuan pemodelan air tanah pada tambang terbuka Andesit di Desa Dadirejo, Kecamatan Bagelen, Kabupaten Purworejo, Provinsi Jawa Tengah adalah untuk mengetahui pengaruh air tanah terhadap kegiatan penambangan di lokasi penelitian. Pemodelan dilakukan dengan bantuan software Visual Modflow dan metode beda hingga (Finite Difference Method). Model terdiri dari 3 lapisan meliputi 1 lapisan sebagai akuifer (batupasir), 1 lapisan sebagai akuiklud (lempung) dan 1 lapisan sebagai akuifug (andesit dan breksi andesit). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan adanya perubahan kondisi air tanah sebelum dan setelah dilakukannya kegiatan penambangan. Berdasarkan hasil pemodelan tesebut, dapat disimpulkan bahwa air tanah tidak berpengaruh terhadap kegiatan penambangan dikarenakan elevasi muka air tanah berkisar antara 32-42 mdpl atau berada di bawah elevasi terendah kegiatan penambangan pada tahun 2025 (56 mdpl). Apabila kegiatan penambangan diteruskan hingga kedalaman 14-20 meter akan ditemukan adanya rembesan dan berpengaruh terhadap aktivitas penambangan serta surutnya muka air tanah pada sumur penduduk.

Published: August 2022

The effect of processing parameters on microencapsulation of oregano essential with maltodextrin:gum arabic using a disk atomiser spray-dryer was evaluated. By means of response surface methodology, the feed flow rate and inlet air temperature were optimised. Powder yield, moisture content, essential oil retention, and antioxidant activity of microparticles were evaluated. The best conditions to produce microencapsulated oregano essential oil were 0.6 L h−1 for feed flow rate and 200 °C for inlet air temperature. With this combination a microencapsulated powder with 89.8% powder yield, 2.1% moisture content, 92.1% essential oil retention, 76 s solubilisation time, 12.9 g of water/100 g of dry matter, 0.3371 g mL−1 bulk density, 0.5826 g mL−1 tapped density, and 8.2 μm of average particle size was produced. The microencapsulation of oregano essential oil preserves the antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of its bioactive compounds.
White rot fungus Calocybe indica: Incredulous factory of lignocellulolytic enzymes and their potential applicability for mushroom cultivation
Authors: Kaur M. , Sharma S. , Sodhi H.S.
Published: August 2022

Cultivation of specialty mushrooms on lignocellulosic wastes represents one of the most economical organic recycling processes. Compared with other cultivated mushrooms, very little is known about the nature of the lignocellulolytic enzymes produced by the edible fungus Calocybe indica, its enzymatic activity profiles during submerged and solid state fermentation. The intracellular activity of laccase (7.67 U mg−1), manganese peroxidase (7.48 U mg−1), cellobiohydrolase (5.46 U mg−1), and endoxylanase (4.21 U mg−1) was best obtained in C. indica on 14th and 21st day of incubation. The extracellular activity of laccase (11.57 U mL−1), lignin peroxidase (8.45 U mL−1), and endoxylanases (6.22 U mL−1) were found to be highest on the 14th day. Ligninolytic enzyme activity was substantial during substrate colonisation but quickly dropped during fruiting body development. C. indica, on the other hand, showed relatively modest hydrolase activity during substrate colonisation. The activity of hydrolytic enzymes increased dramatically when primordia formed and peaked at the mature fruiting body stage. The yield of the crude enzyme-treated wheat straw utilised for mushroom production was 52.47%. These findings showed that the activities of lignocellulolytic enzymes were regulated in line with developmental phase of growth of C. indica.
'This Face of Glee...This Terrifying Sound': Sean Bonney Through the Soundhole, Where Bonney IS
Authors: Willey Stephen Paul
Published: August 2022

This article delineates Sean Bonney’s ambivalence towards 20th Century sound poetry and his complex relationship with sound and visual poet Bob Cobbing (1920-2002). To do this the article reads one of Bonney’s early poems ‘For Bob, Cobbing Through the Soundhole, Where Cobbing IS’ – a poem Bonney read at Cobbing’s funeral – alongside Our Death, Bonney’s last book. The way Bonney responded to Cobbing’s life and death may offer a guide to how we respond to Our Death after Bonney’s. In their shared commitment to counter state violence, the article identifies an anti-Thatcherite politics alongside a poetics of vulnerability and hospitality, which they extend to each other, to the interned, the displaced and the dispossessed. 
The State is a Murderous Life-Support Machine: A Conversation about Death
Authors: Jeschke Lisa , Hayward Danny
Published: August 2022

This paper (taking the form of a conversation between its two authors) asks in what ways Sean Bonney's work of the 2010s might be considered an agitated historiography of death under the specific social relations presented by the UK/EU during this period. The extremism of the Letters Against the Firmament (2015) lies in the way they make felt fully that austerity is not a merely problematic policy but a policy that kills, i.e. explicitly-yet-often-invisibly causes death. The title of Bonney's final book-length publication Our Death (2019) seems to go even further in its demand for solidarity – through its use of a strange plural pronoun. In close-reading these works in their relation to death, dying, the dead, we place especial emphasis on 1) a perspective of sociological realism, discussing the communities as much as dividing lines of the distribution of death in the 2010s and how these are negotiated by Bonney; 2) the poet’s romantic and melancholic streaks, leading us to suggest that Cancer and Our Death might be considered as dark love poems calling for an orgy of skeletons; 3) how Bonney’s poetry formulates a leftist, dialectical theory of death torn between resistance to state murder and a no future-embrace of death: in the refusal to live while others die.
The Involution of the Storm Corner: Sean Bonney’s Occult
Authors: Chalmers Christina
Published: August 2022

This essay constructs an understanding of Sean Bonney’s occult poetics, especially in his prose-poem ‘Second Letter on Harmony’, through its mediation of past traditions of ‘occult poetry’—specifically, Stephen Jonas and the Boston school—with the philosophy of history of Ernst Bloch in Heritage of our Times and Bertolt Brecht’s uses of alienation, particularly the notion of ‘gesture’. Bonney’s methods of apprehending a multifaceted reality, composed of darkness, antipodes, contraries and hiddenness, as much as clarity, self-sameness, light and truth, are related to although different from the occult’s methods of transformation which make the hidden ‘visible’. I argue that Bonney estranges already estranged and fetishised knowledges and facts in their contradictoriness, as a mode of turning knowledge ‘inside out’, whose results are channelled towards anti-fascist struggle and revolutionary praxis. Bonney’s occult poetics seeks to re-appropriate zones of fascist cultural hegemony, such as the occult, making these ripe for revolutionary rediscovery. This very practice sets out a materialist means of communicating with the dead.

Drone-Cinema, Data Practices, and the Narrative of IHL
Authors: Krebs Shiri
Published: August 2022

This article explores how advanced military technologies and data practices reshape and reassert a particular, Western-centric, narrative of International Humanitarian Law (IHL). Analysing the dissemination of this narrative through popular culture, with a focus on he 2015 British thriller Eye in the Sky, I explore how the representation of IHL data practices reaffirms a humanitarian narrative of IHL. As a popular culture product – and one that is embraced by senior IHL experts and professionals – Eye in the Sky reflects and participates in the ethical, legal, and political debates about advanced military technologies, and presents mundane data practices as a system of knowledge production through which IHL exercises its jurisdiction over facts, people, time, and space. In particular, the article analyses how Eye in the Sky’s representations of IHL’s data practices strengthen and reinforce a particular IHL narrative, which is consistent with Western countries’ narrative about their existing bureaucracies of killing. Based on Interdisciplinary analysis of socio-legal studies (SLS), Science and Technology Studies (STS), and culture and media literature, this article answers the following three questions: (i) who is given the power to speak IHL (and who is not)? (ii) to whom is IHL speaking? and (iii) how do data practices shape IHL’s jurisdiction? The article concludes that Eye in the Sky speaks international law through the voices of drone-owning nations, and is directed to their mass publics, legitimising data-centred violence. At the same time, it disguises normative choices as inevitable, and erases African decision-makers, communities, and perspectives.
Post-Ceasefire Nagorno-Karabakh: Limits to the ECtHR’s Approach to Jurisdiction over Secessionist Entities under the ECHR
Authors: Miklasová Júlia
Published: August 2022

This paper examines whether (and if so, on what basis) the events taking place in Nagorno-Karabakh after the signature of a trilateral ceasefire agreement in November 2020 would fall within the jurisdiction under the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) of Azerbaijan as a territorial State; Armenia as potentially exercising effective control there; or Russia given the presence of its peacekeeping mission in the region. It also outlines the future developments after Russia ceases to be the party to the ECHR. On the example of Nagorno-Karabakh, the paper demonstrates the limits to the European Court of Human Rights’ approach to jurisdiction over secessionist entities under the ECHR. In particular, it highlights the relativity of the requirement of the presence of the ‘boots on the ground’ as the element of the effective control test under a spatial extra-territorial model of jurisdiction.

Published: August 2022

The article considers the spatial specificity of the literary texts of romantic fantasy.

Trust in the Word as a Political and Pedagogical Path to Happiness, from Gorgias to Plato
Authors: Capilupi S.M.
Published: August 2022

Greek thought is particularly concrete because, in one way or another, it is connected with what can or cannot be seen by everyone, both externally and internally. Today's mindset is different: it can be compared with a two-sided medal. One side of it is the extreme subjectivity that differs significantly from the subjectivity of the sophist Protagoras who was searching for what was useful to the city through a general discussion of individual ideas on the utility. Modern subjectivists, however, do not want to discuss anything: they are only interested in what they can see, and not what others can. But most importantly, they see no point in the discussion itself: that is what brings it together with today’s nihilism. On the contrary, we cannot say that the sophist Gorgias had nothing left after the denial of Arche: words withstood, open to common view again, and they were beautiful and useful. The other side of the modern mindset is the extreme abstractionism when concepts turn out to be very distant and conceptual. However, the modern passion for visualization might potentially prove to be a productive way to a new revelation of the deepest dialectics of the visible and the invisible in both didactics and science. The antique trust in the word is also the belief in the fact that the word can show and indicate to everyone a path to and a hope for the common happiness. Our report discusses this “verbal” pedagogical and political path to the happiness of the polis both in terms of birth and evolution of this path, as well as of its relevance.
Contrastive Analysis of English, Russian and Hebrew Yellow Idioms
Authors: Kigel T.
Published: August 2022

The problem studied in the article is relevant and important for the Russian and foreign scientific community since color Hebrew idioms have not yet been described against the background of numerous similar studies in other languages and the comparison of idioms with the lexeme yellow/желтый/ צהוב (further YIS) didn’t do still. The material of the work was about 140 yellow idioms: about 70 English, 40 Russian, and 30 Hebrew. They were collected from trilingual electronic lexical, phraseological dictionaries, and Internet searches and analyzed with qualitative and quantitative contextual-functional, semantic and cultural-linguistic analysis within the lingua culturological approach. The article proposes the following YIS classification based on microsystems consisting of meaning associative chains with logically and semantically related relations that cover physical and mental characteristics, and a large number of human activity areas and allows the inclusion of new YIS in the future: 1. Object optical color.1.1 Nature. Natural Phenomena, Physical Objects - Geography; Fauna; Body - skin color; Reference color. 1.2 Human activity. Reference Color; Food; Medicine - Medicines; Sports; Information - Traffic signals - Alerts; Terrorism; Employment; Vote; 1.3 Moral and ethical issues. Sensation; Bribe. Unique YIS, enriching the linguistic picture of the world, in English related, in particular, to such topics as Cowardice, Goal Achievement Strategy, and in Russian - Acquisitiveness, Inexperience. In the 21st century, YIS are of great importance in road signs and danger warnings in medicine, meteorology, and civil and defense fields. The results of the work can be effectively used in comparative, cultural, lexicographic, and lexicological work and contribute to SLA, human and automatic translation of idioms.
Corporate Feminism? Emma Watson and the UN’s #HeForShe Movement
Authors: Ponton D.M.
Published: August 2022

This study regards actress Emma Watson’s key speech launching HeForShe at the United Nations in 2014, with a special focus on the way she refers to men. The #HeForShe initiative ostensibly differs from traditional feminist approaches in its recognition of the importance of reaching out to men. This study aims to explore tensions in her argumentation and within the movement itself. It uses a mixed method analysis that consists in the application of some traditional tools in the analysis of political rhetoric, evaluative language, framing, problem-solution, naturalisation, erasure. Results are to highlight a discursive tension in the portrayal of men that downplays their role as perpetrators of historical injustice for women and instead emphasises their victimhood. The conclusion brings out some of the corporate contradictions inherent in the HeForShe project.
Discovering and Discussing the Barriers of Access for Potential Dance Audiences
Authors:   , Caple Blake , Goodman Julie Renee , Coleman Laura-Edythe S
Published: August 2022

Dance has been seeing a steady decrease in audience sizes paired with a disproportionately small audience size compared to other performing art forms. There is a strong history of dance participation for some people and no dance engagement for most people. The major trends in looking at exclusionary issues in dance can be narrowed down to three for the context of this research. These include racial inequalities, missing personal and cultural relatability, and lack of dance education in primary education as the primary sources of where barriers are between a seat in the audience and the everyday person who does not attend a dance show. The goal of this research is to bring clarity and human stories to what is stopping people from seeing dance shows. The research findings can be used to implement new strategic plans to engage a wider audience base and reach out to new demographics. Taking the context of the three hypothesized and later confirmed categories is that most of the interview responses will fall into these categories for why people do not see dance shows. A series of two pilot and seven formal interviews were conducted to ask questions about people's experiences, or lack thereof, in the arts, their arts and cultural tendencies, comfort in certain situations, and even reflections on what could be done to make their experiences better. The results showed that many of the participants did, in fact, fall into these generalized categories with the nuances that come with the human experience. These results suggest that while there is not a singular solution for building arts audiences across various demographics and interest groups, there are generalized lived experiences that can inform an organization's strategic plan to better serve and bring the art to a larger community.

Study of Polymeric Composite Reinforced with Natural Particles: Measurement and Evaluation
Authors: Oleiwi Jawad K. , Hadi Rusul S.
Published: August 2022

Natural particles and their composites are important in materials science, where a significant attentiveness is being displayed in the usage of natural particles as reinforcement in polymer composites. The purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of the walnut shell particles as reinforcing fillers in a matrix composite. So, the amount composite examples were advanced through varying the percentage by weight of filler (3, 5, 7, and 9%) in an epoxy and unsaturated polyester polymer. Composite samples were mechanically characterized by tensile tests, flexural tests, hardness tests, and the Izod impact test. The tensile strength and impact strength of epoxy resin were increased after adding organic waste filler. The highest values of tensile strength and impact strength happened at 7% wt. The flexural strength and hardness of shore D increased with the percentage of walnut shell particles. The highest values of flexural strength and hardness were found at 9% wt. The results show that the mechanical properties of epoxy composite are better than the mechanical properties of unsaturated polyester composite when walnut shell particles are added.
