A Study of the Derived Forms of “Loanwords + -Doeda/-Danghada/-Sikida”
Authors:   Korean Association for Literacy, Kim Jihye
Published: November 2022

The purpose of this study is to examine the acceptance pattern of the parts of speech of loanwords and the restrictions on the derived forms of the loanwords by targeting the verbs formed by combining the suffixes -doeda (되다) , -danghada (당하다), and -sikida (시키다) with the roots of loanwords in Korean. The pattern of acceptance of loanwords can be divided into three types according to the word’s part of speech in the source language. First, when loanwords are nouns in the original language, the word is derived by combining loan words with the derivation suffixes -doeda/-danghada/-sikida without changing the part of speech. Second, when loanwords are verbs in the source language, they are accepted as roots that cannot be used independently in Korean; verbs are derived from loanwords by combining the latter with the suffixes -doeda/-danghada/-sikida. Third, when loanwords are adjectives in the source language, they are accepted as roots that cannot be used independently in Korean. Verbs are then derived by combining these loanwords with the suffixes -doeda/-danghada/-sikida. On the other hand, restrictions on the derived forms of loanwords can be divided along two dimensions. First, there is a semantic restriction regarding the use of the passive and causative affixes: -doeda/-danghada functions to reduce the verb’s valency and semantically adds the meaning of [passive]; contrariwise, -sikida functions to increase the verb’s valency and adds the meaning of [causative] semantically. Second, there is a binding restriction according to the part of speech of the root, such that the part of speech of the loanword in the source language is retained as much as possible.
The Role of Classical Chinese Poetry in Modern Transition － Focusing on Samcheonri(『三千里』)
Authors:   Korean Association for Literacy, Lim Boyoun , Chong Kiin
Published: November 2022

Although 374 classical Chinese poems were published in Samcheonri, which is known as the core of the colonial modern culture of colonial Joseon, it has not been well explored. To comprehend the meaning of Korean literature’s ‘modern transition,’ it is essential to grasp the characteristics of classical Chinese poetry in magazines during the modern period. From this viewpoint , this paper outlines classical Chinese poems in Samcheonri, and pays particular attention to independence activists, Gim Rip(金笠), and women’s poetry. The exposure of traces of censorship strengthened the meaning of independence activists’ poems in Samcheonri. The translation and commentary of Gim Rip’s poems attempted to soothe readers’ anger with laughter and resentment. Finally, by introducing female Chinese poetry and emphasizing its importance, it accentuated the emotions of minorities. The characteristics of Chinese poetry published in Samcheonri are significant in this study because they provide a basis for understanding the multilayer aspects of Korean poetry during the “modern transition period.”
The Ironic Style of Hyun Jin-geon’s Short Stories and Perception of Reality
Authors:   Korean Association for Literacy, Choi Yun-jung
Published: November 2022

Hyun Jin-geon’s short stories have been discussed through a “realism-perspective”, but in the matter of “realism”, they were devalued when compared to realist works. The modern colonial era was an era in which double and triple contradictions were revealed and absurd situations were reproduced by imperialism and capitalism. Rather than accurately and realistically portraying this reality, Hyun Jin-geon ironically expresses the opacity caused by the inconsistency of language and ironically embodies the reality in a way that breaks the inevitability of the incongruity of causality. While securing an objective distance free from subjectivity, they recognize the contradictions and absurdities of various realities. Therefore, as we sense this inconsistency and incongruity, we experience irony in Hyun Jin-geon’s short stories. This paper explores how irony works, focusing on a few of Hyun Jin-geon’s representative short stories how he recognizes the reality of modern colonialism. Irony has historically been interpreted in various ways as a literary form. However, there are generally two forms of irony that have been consistently agreed upon in the process: ‘rhetorical irony’ and ‘situational irony’. In this way, Hyun Jin-geon rescues irony in his work, objectively revealing the various contradictions and absurdities of colonial modernity at a distance. Subsequently, Hyun Jin-geon reveals his true value and position as a writer and his characteristic representation of reality.

Published: November 2022

Review question / Objective: The scope of this review was defined using PICOTS framework where 1) population: adult critically ill patients with sepsis or septic shock; 2) index prognostic factor: cell surface protein expression of mHLA-DR in blood; 3) comparative factor: none; 4) outcomes to be predicted: mortality, secondary infections, length of stay, and organ dysfunction score (sequential organ failure assessment [SOFA], multiple organ dysfunction score [MODS], logistic organ dysfunction score [LODS]), composite outcomes where component endpoints consist of at least one of the outcomes stated above (e.g., “adverse outcome” defined as death or secondary infection), 5) timing (of the prediction horizon and the moment of prognosis): any; and 6) setting: ICU. Condition being studied: Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to severe infections. It can further progress to septic shock, which includes hemodynamic failure and increased mortality rates. A recent worldwide epidemiological study estimated 48.9 million sepsis cases and 11 million of sepsis-related deaths (~20% of global deaths in 2017). Although its management has advanced considerably, sepsis remains deadly and challenging to treat. The 28/30-day mortality averages around 25% for sepsis and 38% for septic shock in high-income countries. Current models describe the underlying pathophysiologic mechanisms of sepsis as an interplay between concurrent dysfunctional pro- and anti-inflammatory immune response.

I: Manipulative therapy. C: Exercise, rehabilitation, or other physical therapy. O: Pain intensity and Neck disability. S: Randomized controlled trials. Condition being studied: Pain in the neck is a disagreeable sensory and emotional experience associated with the potential or actual damage of tissue that affects the cervical region. Pain in the neck that lasts for a long period is a serious problem for public health that causes a lot of pressure. Manipulative therapy is usually considered an alternative treatment option with the advantages of fewer verse effects and lower treatment costs compared to exercise. Therefore, this study retrieved the relevant randomized controlled trials of manipulative therapy in the treatment of chronic neck pain and conducted a comprehensive quantitative analysis to offer an evidence-based reference for the clinical application of manipulative therapy.
Emotion recognition of EEG signals based on variational mode decomposition and weighted cascade forest
Authors: Xu Dingxin , Qin Xiwen , Dong Xiaogang , Cui Xueteng
Published: November 2022

Emotion recognition is of a great significance in intelligent medical treatment and intelligent transportation. With the development of human-computer interaction technology, emotion recognition based on Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals has been widely concerned by scholars. In this study, an EEG emotion recognition framework is proposed. Firstly, variational mode decomposition (VMD) is used to decompose the nonlinear and non-stationary EEG signals to obtain intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) at different frequencies. Then sliding window tactic is used to extract the characteristics of EEG signals under different frequency. Aiming at the issue of feature redundancy, a new variable selection method is proposed to improve the adaptive elastic net (AEN) by the minimum common redundancy maximum relevance criterion. Weighted cascade forest (CF) classifier is constructed for emotion recognition. The experimental results on the public dataset DEAP show that the valence classification accuracy of the proposed method reaches 80.94%, and the classification accuracy of arousal is 74.77%. Compared with some existing methods, it effectively improves the accuracy of EEG emotion recognition.
Depression and Parkinson's disease: a Chicken-Egg story
Authors: Chakraborty Ashok , Diwan Anil
Published: November 2022

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease, however, besides the motor symptoms, such as rest tremor, hypokinesia, postural instability and rigidity, PD patients have also non-motor symptoms, namely neuropsychiatric disorders. Apart from the required motor symptoms, psychopathological symptoms are very common and include mood disorders, anxiety disorders, hallucinations, psychosis, cognitive deterioration and dementia. The underlying pathophysiological process in PD is mainly due to the loss of dopaminergic neural cells and thereby causes the shortage of nigrostriatal dopamine content in them. In addition, it may involve other neurotransmitter systems such as the noradrenergic, serotonergic, cholinergic and noradrenergic systems as well. Depression can result from any unhealthy conditions making the diagnosis a challenging task. The manifestation of depression associated with or without PD is inadequate. The co-occurrence of depression and PD often leads to the conceptual discussion on whether depressive symptoms appear before or after PD develops. This paper will discuss the conceptual mechanism of PD and depression. Keep in mind both conditions belong to two separate entities but share some similar aspects in their pathophysiology.
Association Study of Melanocortin-4 Receptor (rs17782313) and PKHD1 (rs2784243) Variations and Early Incidence of Obesity at the Age of Maturity
Authors: Ansari Yasaman , Asadi Mojgan , Far Iman Salahshouri , Pashaie Nahid , Noroozi Nafise , Amoli Mahsa M.
Published: November 2022

Introduction:

Obesity is primarily caused by the dysfunction of the energy homeostasis system. Numerous studies have reported an association between obesity and the rs17782313 variant near the melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) gene. In addition, the PKHD1 gene regulates the expression of fibrocystin. This gene is primarily expressed in the kidney and plays a role in fat and glucose metabolism. However, the interaction between PKHD1 polymorphisms and birth weight has not yet been investigated. This study showed the association between the rs17782313 variant near the MRC4 gene and rs2784243 in the PKHD1 gene amongst Iranian cases with obesity before maturity.

Methods:

One hundred and eleven Iranian patients and 100 healthy individuals aged 5 years and over were selected from the Tehran Moheb-e-Yas Hospital. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and sequencing methods were used for genotyping the genetic variants. A Chi-square test was applied to determine the association between rs17782313 and food intake and rs2784243 and birth weight.

Results:

The rs17782313 variant was associated with high food intake (P = 0.04), while the rs2784243 variant was associated with increased birth weight (P = 004).

Conclusion:

The MC4R rs17782313 and PKHD1 rs2784243 variants may contribute to food intake and early obesity. Moreover, a novel association was suggested between PKHD1 rs2784243 and birth weight.

Authors: Chakraborty Sumanta , Bhattacharya Tridibes
Published: November 2022

Background:

Despite the target of elimination of lymphatic filariasis by 2015, a few districts of West Bengal including Bankura district failed to achieve it. Under-coverage and unsupervised consumption of medicines during mass drug administration (MDA) campaign were implicated for the failure. Thereby, directly observed therapy (DOT) and mop up by repeated home visits for MDA were adopted.

Objective:

The objective of this study is to assess the coverage of anti-filarial medicines distribution and rate of consumption as well as to find out the causes of nonconsumption.

Materials and Methods:

A cross-sectional survey was conducted in three sub-centers each of three blocks and three wards of Bankura municipality of Bankura district, WB, India, selected through the stratified random sampling method. Information was collected interviewing inhabitants of the house hold selected through the systematic random sampling technique.

Results:

Overall, appropriate medicine distribution was 82.9% with 95.3% of correct consumption of both medicines under supervision. 91.87% of the respondents were aware about Lymphatic filariasis (LF) of which 89.95% reported swelling of leg/foot/hand, 9.57% as pain, 6.22% fever, and 1.44% reported swelling of testis as symptoms of LF. Altogether 10.6% individual, who consumed any medicine (527), reported AEs, out of that 66.1%, 19.6%, and 14.3% complained of dizziness/headache, nausea/vomiting, and drowsiness, respectively, and 28.6% of them sought consultation with health workers.

Conclusion:

Substantial supervised consumption in the form DOT in this round too leads to the fact that the effective coverage of MDA has reached the target. It seemed that some segment of the beneficiary is remaining as persistent noncomplaints. Mass mobilization for motivating this persistent defaulter section is the need of the hour.

Published: November 2022

Background:

Plants are an important option in the treatment of malaria, especially in endemic regions, and are a less expensive and more accessible alternative with a lower risk of toxicity. Colombia has a great diversity of plants, and evaluation of natural extracts could result in the discovery of new compounds for the development of antimalarial drugs. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the in vitro antiplasmodial activity and the cytotoxicity of plant extracts from the Colombian North Coast against Plasmodium falciparum.

Materials and Methods:

The antiplasmodial activity of 12 plant species from the Colombian North Coast that are used in traditional medicine was evaluated through in vitro cultures of P. falciparum, and the cytotoxicity of extracts of these species to human cells was determined. Plant extracts with high antiplasmodial activity were subjected to preliminary phytochemical screening.

Results:

Extracts from five plants had promising antiplasmodial activity. Specifically, Bursera simaruba (Burseraceae) (bark), Guazuma ulmifolia Lam. (Malvaceae) (whole plant), Murraya exotica L. (Rutaceae) (leaves), Hippomane mancinella L. (Euphorbiaceae) (seeds), and Capparis odoratissima Jacq. (Capparaceae) (leaves). Extracts presented 50% inhibitory concentration values between 1 and 9 μg/ml. Compared to no extract, these active plant extracts did not show cytotoxic effects on mononuclear cells or hemolytic activity in healthy human erythrocytes.

Conclusions:

The results obtained from this in vitro study of antiplasmodial activity suggest that active plant extracts from the Colombian North Coast are promising for future bioassay-guided fractionation to allow the isolation of active compounds and to elucidate their mechanism of action against Plasmodium spp.

Evaluation of Temperature-Time Profiles by the Lumped Thermal Mass analysis method for bottom surface jet impingement cooling system was carried out. This was done by controlled accelerated cooling using a modified run-out table (ROT). The evaluation was with variant pipe diameters of 10mm - 40mm by a single water jet, having impingement gaps in the range of 55mm - 95mm and controlled sub-cooled to a range of 150oC – 110oC. The results revealed that the cooling rate was faster at an impingement gap of 95mm in all the pipe diameters. This was evident from the plot of temperature-time, with a gap of 95mm showing 1.93oC/s and 3.24oC/s at diameters of 10mm and 40mm respectively. This evidently revealed that at any given pipe diameter the cooling rate is higher at a higher impingement gap for bottom surface controlled cooling. This is also suggested by the calculated heat transfer coefficient that shows an increase with the increase in pipe diameter and impingement gap for an increase in cooling rate. Therefore, for bottom surface jet impingement cooling, a higher impingement gap for any pipe diameter will give a better cooling rate for the steel austempering process.

During the execution of works on the construction of the tunnel Zenica, there is a certain number of activities that can cause negative consequences for the environment. In this regard, the greatest danger is represented by the technological operations of works such as: mechanical excavation, blasting, deep excavations, destruction, and removal of the natural covering layer. Also, construction machines pose a potential danger from spills or accidental spills of oil and oil derivatives, discarding of motor oils and similar waste. Uncontrolled depositing of excavated material, and a plateau for parking machinery near surface and underground water can cause negative consequences for the environment. In this paper, an assessment of the primary environmental pollutants during the excavation of the tunnel Zenica was carried out, i.e., dust and wastewater emissions during construction.

The main problem of the modern world is the difficulty of obtaining high-quality water necessary to meet the needs and improve the quality of life of people. Many territories of our country have large reserves of groundwater with a huge mineralization of effluents that are not used in water supply, due to the large content of various impurities and salts in the water. To use this water in artesian water supply, it is necessary to remove salts from it. Among the many methods of desalination of wastewater, we compare two methods – electrodialysis and reverse osmosis, competing for the opportunity to prevail in the modern energy market. The most important criteria for comparing the effectiveness of water desalination methods are: preliminary preparation of the liquid; how often the membranes fail during operation of the equipment; energy savings of processes, reduction of current and capital costs for water filtration. Electrodialysis is a chemical process in which the number of electrolytes in a liquid changes under the influence of an electric current, more often this method is used at normal atmospheric pressure in industrial plants. Reverse osmosis is a method of desalting liquid to obtain purified water for the national economy.

Published: November 2022

The long-term dynamics of the average annual and seasonal air temperature on the territory of the Moscow region is considered. To assess the significance of linear trends in annual and seasonal air temperature, the criterion “trend-to-noise ratio” was used, calculated according to the method of V.E. Chuba. In addition, statistical criteria were used the Spearman criterion and the correlation coefficient. It has been established that the highest value of annual air temperature, falls on the territory of the city of Moscow, where its own special microclimate is created, and the lowest value of the average annual air temperature is observed at the weather station Mozhaisk. When analyzing the trend in the rate of increase in annual air temperature, the following results were obtained. The increase in the average annual air temperature over the period for Moscow is 2,61 °C/74 years, for the southeastern part of the Moscow region (Kolomna) is 2,26 °C/97 years and for the western part of the region from Mozhaisk) is 2,36/90 years. Checking the significance of linear trends showed that in the dynamics of the average annual, seasonal and maximum and minimum air temperatures in the Moscow region, there is a positive statistically significant linear trend.

The environmental doctrine of the Russian Federation proclaims the principle of equal attention to the economic, social and environmental components of sustainable development and the recognition of the impossibility of the development of human society in the degradation of nature. Economic growth should not be accompanied by a deterioration in the state of natural environments, at the same time, environmental protection should not lead to the economic weakening of the city. The goal of environmental sustainability is to conserve natural resources and develop alternative energy sources while reducing pollution and harm to the environment. Existing sustainability challenges urgently call for new urban solutions, which in turn require experimentation at the right scale and with multiple stakeholders. This is where urban living labs have a key role to play. The article considers the possibilities of using Urban Living Labs in the implementation of the concept of sustainable development of cities, the problems of achieving environmental sustainability of the city.

Published: November 2022

The current political and economic situation determines the need to change the concept of sustainable development of the economy and its economic security. In modern economic conditions, environmental and social factors are becoming increasingly important. This is due to the fact that the pace of economic growth has exacerbated the problem of the limited biocapacity of the planet, and the environmental factor limits the general welfare: from reduced life expectancy to natural disasters. The recognition by the world of the parity of environmental, economic and social values marked a transition to sustainable development. To date, about 200 states have announced the development and implementation of environmental policies in accordance with the principles of sustainable development. In the context of sustainability, new models of the economy related to environmental factors have become widespread both in theory and in practice: the «green economy», the economy based on green growth, the «low-carbon economy», the bioeconomy, the «blue economy», etc. The article is devoted to the study of trends in the greening of the Russian economy, as well as the latest developments in changing the system of indicators of economic and social progress. An analysis of Russia's activities in the field of ecologization of the economy is given, as well as a rationale for the prospects and effect of the transition to a «green economy» at the federal level. The object of the research is the formation of elements of the «green economy» in Russia. The subject of the work is an assessment of the level of development of the "green economy" in Russia and its impact on the economic security of the national economy.

Published: November 2022

The technology of splicing of short-dimensional woodworking waste due to the use pressing in longitudinal direction is resource-saving and allows for more rational use of wood. The use of this technology in mass production requires the development of appropriate technological equipment. Pressure treatment is one of the most common methods of metal processing. Rationally designed die tooling contributes to a significant reduction in labor costs per unit of production, thereby increasing labor productivity. At the same time, there are practically no information sources for the design of die tooling used in the processing of non-metallic materials. The lack of developed design solutions for stamp assemblies does not allow mass processing of workpieces by a resource-saving method of pressing in longitudinal direction. Based on the results of the analysis of sources, the article proposes the procedure for designing a stamp and develops a morphological table, using which it is possible to form a sequence of choosing the design of stamp parts for the technological process of stamping a product from any material.

Published: November 2022

The development of new highly efficient sorption materials for the separation of various liquid or gaseous media is an important area of modern research that is in demand in a number of industries. The paper presents the results of studies conducted to determine the sorption capacity of a highly porous carbon material obtained by implementing two activation options - high-temperature alkaline activation and activation with additional processing of the material with steam. As a result, the obtained activated highly porous carbon material had a specific surface area of 2500-2700 m2/g and a pore volume of more than 1.3 cm3/g. A high sorption activity was established with respect to synthetic dyes - methylene blue and methylene yellow. Comparison with analogue materials showed that the resulting carbon material significantly exceeds them in sorption capacity and is a promising absorber of pollutants from aqueous solutions, which demonstrates the possibility of its use for solving environmental problems.

Once-iconic Pismo clams persist in southern California at low intertidal population densities and with variable recruitment
Authors: Bignami Sean
Published: November 2022

The Pismo clam (Tivela stultorum) has experienced substantial population decline in California over the past century, extinguishing most public participation in a once-iconic recreational fishery before the end of the 20th century. A subsequent decrease in data collection has led to uncertainty about the current population status of this species. We conducted 6 years of intertidal Pismo clam population assessment surveys in Orange, San Diego, and southern Los Angeles Counties to provide a current dataset that could help guide research and management efforts in southern California. Pismo clams were observed at 19 out of 27 study sites during 57 days of surveys. Average clam bed density was low (mean 2.0 ± 1.1 clams/m2, median 0.1 ± 0.7 clams/m2, n = 21 sites), especially when considering larger clams ≥ 35 mm (mean 0.3 ± 0.1 clams/m2, median 0.1 ± 0.4 clams/m2), and varied greatly between sites (0.0–98.5 clams/m2), with Orange County densities approximately one order of magnitude lower than those in San Diego County. Juvenile recruitment was generally low or undetectable, except for consistent recruitment within a < 10 km beach area in San Diego County and a much larger, widespread recruitment event in 2022. Multi-year observations at several sites failed to indicate any consistent seasonal or inter-annual population trends. Densities and abundances were similar to recent historic data (< 30 years old), but are substantially lower than populations prior to the 1980s. We conclude that the Pismo clam persists on many southern California beaches at generally low densities and that recruitment is occurring throughout the southern California region with high spatial and temporal variability. This study provides foundational data to help inform Pismo clam conservation management decisions and to which additional monitoring, ecological research, and fishery data collection should be added.

Kulit pisang termasuk bahan hasil samping yang belum dimanfaatkan secara maksimal.   Kulit   pisang   yang   dianggap   sebagai   limbah   dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai bahan pangan karena masih mengandung nilai gizi seperti karbohidrat. Selain itu kulit pisang juga memiliki kandungan serat yang tinggi. Dengan demikian kulit pisang dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai bahan pembuatan abon yang dikombinasikan dengan daging ikan bandeng. Penelitian  ini  bertujuan  untuk  mengetahui proporsi terbaik penggunaan kulit pisang dan daging ikan bandeng pada pembuatan abon ikan. Penelitian dilaksanakan menggunakan metode Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan perlakuan proporsi kulit pisang dan daging ikan bandeng yaitu K = 100% kulit pisang, S1 = 75% kulit pisang : 25% daging ikan bandeng, S2 = 50% kulit pisang : 50% daging ikan bandeng, dan S3 = 25% kulit pisang : 75% daging ikan bandeng. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa proporsi penggunaan kulit pisang dan daging ikan bandeng yang terbaik pada pembuatan abon adalah 25% kulit pisang dan 75% daging ikan bandeng. Abon yang dihasilkan dengan perlakuan tersebut cenderung lebih disukai oleh panelis dan memiliki komposisi kimia yang lebih baik dibanding perlakuan lainnya yaitu kadar air 6.23%, serat 3.46% dan protein 18.66%.

Duchamp y el procedimiento de Roussel (malentendidos hermenéuticos)
Authors: Martín-Ruiz Javier , Lara-Barranco Paco
Published: November 2022

“Duchamp y el procedimiento de Roussel (malentendidos hermenéuticos)” versa sobre el papel esencial que los tropos poéticos del lenguaje adoptan en el universo artístico de Marcel Duchamp. Aborda la confluencia de su arte con la literatura de Raymond Roussel, a partir de un análisis sistemático del famoso procedimiento de escritura del escritor francés. Siguiendo una metodología analítico-comparativa estricta, el presente artículo alinea los textos duchampianos con los mecanismos del procedimiento rousseliano apoyándose, a su vez, en las aportaciones históricas de Michel Saounillet (dirigidas a otra de las influencias del artista francés: La Gramática lógica de Jean Pierre Brisset). Se establece en este artículo, en definitiva, una base metodológica sobre la que hacer una revisión de la lectura que ha sido predominante en la crítica de la obra duchampiana: la hermenéutica procedente del movimiento Surrealista. Es decir, el antecedente crítico que emparenta los juegos verbales duchampianos con diferentes tradiciones esotéricas para dotar a su obra de un sentido oculto.
Notes on the Inexact Sciences

Popular wisdom warns us against premature optimization. And yet, in a quest for public legitimacy and tidy problem domains, many fields discourage vitally necessary descriptive and conceptual work in favor of statistical analysis and laboratory experiments. Topics of unprecedented complexity are tackled using rote, mechanical approaches, by researchers who routinely fail to realize how much linguistic and conceptual clarification is a precondition of headway. Meanwhile, sociological and professional incentives prevent the sorts of synthetic work that might de-provincialize researchers' theories, and initiate exactly those conceptual refactorings which would advance the discipline.
