Authors: Yuliany Susi , Aradea  , Andi Nur Rachman
Published: December 2022

Hama menjadi serangan utama tanaman, khususnya tanaman padi. Dalam melakukan pengendalian hama, sebagian besar petani melakukan aplikasi insektisida secara tidak bijaksana sehingga mengakibatkan terbunuhnya organisme bukan sasaran. Beberapa peneliti telah mencoba mengklasifikasi kerusakan pada tanaman alih-alih mengklasifikasikan hama itu sendiri.  Oleh karena itu, dengan mengklasifikasikan jenis hama pada tanaman padi memungkinkan petani melakukan penanganan sesegera mungkin pada tanaman padi sesuai jenis hama yang menyerangnya. Metode Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) banyak digunakan dalam image processing karena tingkat akurasinya yang tinggi dan lebih baik dalam pengenalan gambar. Metode CNN pada beberapa penelitian mengalami masalah overfitting. Penelitian ini mengusulkan penerapan tiga jenis pembagian data training dan data testing juga penggunaan penggunaan beberapa parameter yang berfungsi mengurangi masalah overfitting. Berdasarkan evaluasi, pembagian data 90%:10% adalah pembagian data yang paling cocok untuk dataset dan arsitektur yang digunakan dengan akurasi training 83,02%, 78,30%, dan 81,13%. Nilai akurasi pengujian dari ketiga model tersebut yaitu 69,33%, 77,33%, dan 76%..
Paradox latentnej etnicity: ukrajinský prípad obdobia stredoveku a raného novoveku
Authors: Masnenko Vitaliy
Published: December 2022

The author of the article focuses his attention on the latent (implicit) ethnicity paradox, the essence of which lies in the fact that the ancient phenomenon of ethnicity has not yet been articulated and reflected on the social level. But definite ethnic groups and ethnicities did really exist. In the pre-modern period ethnicity articulation was realized on either a personality level or the family societal one. The specificity of the Ukrainian case lies in the fact that nation considered itself to be separate from neighbours and this approach originated in the Southern area of Eastern Slavs in the early Middle Ages period when tribe names disappeared. Since then, Kyivan Rus’ ethnic group that is the initial form of the Ukrainian community came into existence. In the course of time its ethno-cultural, ethno-social and ethno-national strata were transformed. Collaboration of historians, ethnologists and social anthropologists is necessary for the optimization of latent ethnicity research.
„The third way“ of farmers in the views of Milan Hodža and Vyacheslav Lypynsky: an attempt at a comparative analysis
Authors: Kornovenko Serhij Valerijovič
Published: December 2022

The article formulates the author’s definition and reveals the essential features of „the third way“ − an alternative to the left (socialism and communism) and right (liberalism, capitalism and fascism) development models of the agrarian countries of Central and Eastern Europe, which was formulated and justified by the ideologues of agrarianism at the end of 1910s – in the 1920s.Using the example of the views of the classics of Czechoslovak (M. Hodža) and Ukrainian (V. Lypynsky) agrarianism, the common and different views of the thinkers on the theory and practice of the „third way“ are clarified. It is substantiated that the ideology of agrarianism in the vision of M. Hodža and the „wheat ideology“ of V. Lypynsky are almost identical phenomena in terms of their content. In both cases, their fundamental principle is the recognition of the peasantry as a force capable of creating a new, fairer social order thanks to its special social, spiritual, moral, and economic qualities. The views of M. Hodža and V. Lipynsky are similar in the issues of „agrarian democracy“, defense of the economic and moral advantages of agriculture, small private ownership of land, cooperation, as well as state regulation of the economy. The essential differences in the views of the two intellectuals lie in belonging to different forms of agrarianism − radical-conservative (V. Lypynsky) and moderate, parliamentary-oriented (M. Hodža), as well as in fundamentally different approaches to the perspective of the internationalization of the agrarian movement. The thesis that the Ukrainian version of agrarianism was a self-sufficient and organic component of Central and Eastern European agrarianism received further development.

Carbapenem resistance in critically important human pathogens isolated from companion animals: a systematic literature review
Authors: Rincón-Real Angie A. , Suárez-Alfonso Martha Cecilia
Published: December 2022

This study aimed to describe the presence and geographical distribution of Gram-negative bacteria considered critical on the priority list of antibiotic-resistant pathogens published by the World Health Organization, including carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae, carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter spp., and carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa. A systematic review of original studies published in 5 databases between 2010 and 2021 was conducted, including genotypically confirmed carbapenem-resistant isolates obtained from canines, felines, and their settings. Fifty-one articles met the search criteria. Carbapenem-resistant isolates were found in domestic canines and felines, pet food, and on veterinary-medical and household surfaces. The review found that the so-called “big five”—that is, the 5 major carbapenemases identified worldwide in Enterobacterales (New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase, active-on-imipenem, Verona integron-encoded metallo-β-lactamase, Klebsiella pneumoniae carbapenemase, and oxacillin [OXA]-48-like)—and the 3 most important carbapenemases from Acinetobacter spp. (OXA-23-like, OXA-40-like, and OXA-58-like) had been detected in 8 species in the Enterobacteriaceae family and 5 species of glucose non-fermenting bacilli on 5 continents. Two publications used molecular analysis to confirm carbapenem-resistant bacteria transmission between owners and dogs. Isolating critically important human carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacteria from domestic canines and felines highlights the importance of including these animal species in surveillance programs and antimicrobial resistance containment plans as part of the One Health approach.

Authors: SEZER Uğur , POLAT Atila Aytekin
Published: December 2022

Çalışmanın amacı, farklı anaçların, Hafif Çukurgöbek (HÇG) yenidünya çeşidinin verim ve meyve kalitesi üzerine etkilerinin belirlenmesidir. Denemede; Quince-A, Quince-C, BA-29 ayva anaçları ile yenidünya çöğür anacı üzerine aşılı HÇG yenidünya çeşidi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma alanında, anacı ayva olan bitkiler 1.0 m x 0.5 m, anacı yenidünya çöğürü olanlar ise 1x1 m aralıklarla dikilmiştir. Çalışmada yer alan çeşit/anaç kombinasyonlarının meyve pomolojik ve verim özellikleri belirlenmiştir. Meyve kalitesini belirlemek amacıyla her çeşit/anaç kombinasyonundan tesadüfi olarak 50 meyve alınmış ve 5 yinelemeli olarak fiziksel ölçüm ve kimyasal analizler yapılmıştır. Meyve olgunlaşması ilk olarak BA-29 ve Quince-A anaçları üzerine aşılı ağaçlarda (17 Mayıs) gerçekleşmiştir. Meyve ağırlığı, meyve eni ve meyve boyu bakımından en yüksek değerler (sırasıyla, 24.8 g, 35.5 mm ve 37.6 mm) BA-29 anacından elde edilirken, bunu Quince-A (23.5 g, 34.9 mm ve 37.3 mm) takip etmiştir. Meyve eti/tohum oranı en yüksek (3.2) Quince-A anacında, en düşük (2.5) yenidünya çöğür anacında belirlenmiştir. Suda çözünebilir kuru madde miktarı bakımından, yenidünya çöğür anacı en yüksek değere (%11.3) sahipken, Quince-A anacı en düşük değere (%9.2) sahip olmuştur. Titre edilebilir toplam asitlik yönünden en yüksek değer (%0.51) BA-29 anacından elde edilirken, en düşük değer (%0.34) Quince-A anacından elde edilmiştir. Meyve kabuk ve et renk değerlerinden “L” ve “b” parametreleri bakımından anaçlar bir birine yakın değerler vermiştir. “a” (kırmızı-yeşil renk) değeri bakımından ise anaçlar arasındaki farklılıklar istatistiksel olarak önemli bulunmuştur. Bitki başına verim bakımından en yüksek değeri (1051 g) yenidünya çöğür anacı vermiş, bunu BA-29 anacı (955 g) izlemiştir. En düşük verim değeri ise Quince-A (587 g) anacından elde edilmiştir. Birim gövde kesit alanına düşen verim bakımından ise en yüksek değeri Quince-A (1.02 g mm-2) ve BA-29 (0.99 g mm-2) verirken, en düşük değeri Quince-C anacı (0.57 g mm-2) vermiştir. Anaçlar arasındaki bu farklılıklar istatistiksel olarak önemli bulunmuştur. Çalışmanın bulgularına göre gerek erkencilik gerek verim gerekse meyve kalitesi bakımından BA-29 anacı, öteki anaçlara göre daha başarılı bulunmuştur.

CREATE EFFECTIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT DEVELOPMENT OF THE SELF-EFFICIENCY BELIEFS SCALE (VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY STUDY)
Authors: Türkmenli Aslı , Çetin Filiz
Published: December 2022

In this study, it was aimed to develop a scale that will serve to determine the self-efficacy beliefs of pre-service teachers in creating an effective learning environment. The self-efficacy belief scale for creating an effective learning environment was developed in line with the opinions of field experts and education faculty students by scanning the literature. The trial form of the scale consists of 79 items. Content validity, construct validity, reliability, and item-based validity studies of the scale were carried out. For the content validity of the scale, opinions were taken from three field experts and an assessment and evaluation expert, and the content validity was tested in line with the consensus. The analysis of the construct validity of the scale, whose content validity was provided, were made on the data obtained from the third and fourth year students of the faculty of education by the convenient sampling method. 3rd and 4th grades were included in the scope of the application with the thought that they would have a better command of the subject thanks to the lessons taken. Accordingly, the scale was applied to 498 students. Content validity exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was used for the validity of the scale, and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was used to test whether it confirmed the existing structure. In order to determine the validity and reliability of the scale, data from Study Group 1 (300 students) for EFA and Study Group 2 (198 students) for CFA were used. The Cronbach Alpha reliability coefficient was used for the reliability of the scale. According to the Cronbach alpha coefficients, the first factor is 0.98, the second factor is 0.98, the third factor was 0.97 and the total scale was 0.99. Thus, it was observed that the values for the reliability of the scale were high. On the other hand, it was determined that the confirmatory factor analysis values of the scale were distributed appropriately within the reference value range shown as the criterion. As a result of the analysis, a five-point Likert-type final scale consisting of 58 items with the necessary psychometric properties was created.

Authors: Nas Muhsin , Çetin Şaban
Published: December 2022

The goal of this study was to create a measurement tool to determine primary school teachers' tendency to direct students to critical thinking. Based on this purpose, first of all, the literature on the subject was scanned and the opinions of teachers were consulted. At the end of this process, an item pool consisting of 55 items was created. The scale items in the item pool were submitted to expert opinion for content validity. The items, which were arranged in line with the opinions of the experts, were transformed into a scale form with a five-point Likert-style option scale. The scale was applied to 500 primary school teachers working in the primary schools of the Ministry of National Education in Altındağ and Mamak, which are the central districts of Ankara, in the 2020-2021 academic year. Since EFA and CFA were planned in the research, the study group was divided into two. Accordingly, it was carried out on the data of EFA study group 1 and CFA study group 2. Study group (1) consists of 250 persons, and study group (2) consists of 250 persons. As a result of the exploratory factor analysis (EFA) applied for construct validity, it was observed that the scale had a one-dimensional structure consisting of 51 items. The total amount of variance explained by the single factor structure is 41,596%. The results of the independent samples t-test, which were used to determine the distinctiveness of each item on the scale, were significant (p≤.01). On the other hand, it was observed that the confirmatory factor analysis values of the scale were in accordance with the reference values accepted as criterion values for model data fit. The scale's Cronbach alpha reliability coefficient was found to be .97. It can be said that the results of the validity and reliability analysis obtained prove that the scale has the necessary psychometric properties.

Authors: Karagöz Savaş , Dilekli Yalçın
Published: December 2022

In this study, Turkey and Syria education experiences of Syrian refugee students and parents residing in Turkey were examined. In the research, the data were collected through a qualitative semi-structured interview form, and the interviews were conducted face to face. The interviewees were coded as E1, E2, E3… and K1, K2, K3… and their real names were not used. The data obtained were analyzed with the descriptive analysis method and the interview items used in the research were interpreted separately. According to the results of the research, the majority of the participants regarding the education practices in Turkey stated that they are happy to receive education in Turkey, they thought their time spent in schools is productive and their children are valued in Turkish schools. When their views on their school experiences in Syria are examined, some of the participants stated that school hours are short and there are more out of shcool learning opportunities. However, the majority of the participants in the research stated that they are discriminated as Arab or Turkmen in schools, almost all teachers’ paractice violence and therefore students do not like school. When the school memories in Turkey were examined, half of the participants did not express any opinion, half of the rest stated that they had positive memories, and the other part stated that they were exposed to racial discrimination. Smilarly, when their school memories in Syria were examined, very few of the participants expressed positive opinions about school memories, on the other hand nearly half of the participants stated negative opinions about school memories in Syria, such as racism, physical and psychological violence, and traumatic environments. The same participants stated that there is a democratic educational atmosphere in Turkey, guidance service is more effective in education and education is more advanced in terms of technical equipment. Smilarly, it was stated that exams are fair in Turkey, they in Syria the situation is verse. When the answers given by the participants to the teacher students relationships in Syria physical violence and intimidation are frequently seen, but the teachers in Turkey are more flexible and sensible. Participants indicated that mixed-sex schooling system was seen positive. It is thought that the findings obtained as a result of this examination can contribute to the integration of Syrian students and their parents
Discovery of a new genus and species of Allocreadiidae (Trematoda) in Mexico: Mesoamericatrema magnisacculus n. gen. n. sp

Published: December 2022

The trematodes of Allocreadiidae are mainly parasites of freshwater fish and the family contains 18 valid genera. Since 2004, 4 genera have been described in the Americas: Paracreptotrema, Paracreptotrematoides, Pseudoparacreptotrema and Auriculostoma, of which the latter was recently synonymized with Creptotrema by Franceschini et al., (2021). During a study in 2018 on fish parasites of Lacantún River, Chiapas, Mexico, allocreadiids were collected from the intestine of Atherinella alvarezi and morphological differences with other genera of the family were immediately noted. These differences were corroborated with molecular data and phylogenetic analyses, which indicated that it was a new genus and species. The objective of this study is to describe the new taxon, which we name Mesoamericatrema magnisacculus n. gen., n. sp. as well as to clarify its phylogenetic relationships, host specificity, and geographical distribution. For this, we carried out a meticulous study of the morphology and compared the new taxon with its congeners. We also obtained sequences of the 28S and ITS from the ribosomal RNA region that were used in generating molecular phylogenies and in calculating genetic distances with sequences of other species of Allocreadiidae available in the Genbank. The new genus is mainly characterized by having a very large cirrus sac in relation to the length of its body and nests in a clade that groups Creptotrema, Creptotrematina, Paracreptotrema, Paracreptotrematoides, Pseudoparacreptotrema and Wallinia, all of which have a Neotropical affinity in terms of their geographic and host distribution. Mesoamericatrema n. gen. is the fifth genus of Allocreadiidae to be described in the Americas since 2004, the third discovered in Mexico since 2016, and the first to be described as parasitizing Atheriniformes, which indicates that Middle America is a region where important speciation events have occurred in freshwater fish parasites.
Intestinal parasitic infection among rural schoolchildren in Taiz, Yemen: School-based assessment of the prevalence and associated risk factors
Authors: Alharazi T.
Published: December 2022

Yemen is an underdeveloped country plagued by poverty, disease, and social conflicts. Furthermore, most of the population lives in rural areas and is vulnerable to intestinal parasite infections (IPI). School-based cross-sectional studies were conducted between 1 February and 31 March 2019 among schoolchildren in rural communities in the Sabir Almawadim and Almawasit districts of Taiz, southwest Yemen. A structured questionnaire collected information regarding sociodemographic characteristics and risk factors. Wet mount and formol-ether concentration techniques were used to detect and identify intestinal parasites in stool specimens. The stool specimens were collected from each study participant using a clean, leak-proof, and adequately labeled stool cup. Statistical analysis of the data was performed using SPSS version 20. Of the 478 students screened for intestinal parasites, 245 (51.26 %) had at least one parasite. The prevalence of protozoa was higher than helminths (30.3 % versus 20.9 %, respectively). The percentages of single, double, and triple infections were 37.4 %, 4.4 %, and 1.7 %, respectively. Giardia lamblia was the most prevalent pathogen (15.5 %), followed by E. hisrolyrica/dispar (14.9 %), Schistosoma mansoni (13.3 %), Ascaris lumbricoides (3.8 %), Trichuris trichiura (2.9 %), and Enterobius vermicularis (1.3 %). Multivariate analysis confirmed that practicing unwashed hands before eating, open field defecation, unwashed fruits and vegetables, and dirty unclipped fingernails were the most significant predictors of high risk of IPIs (p <0.05). Regarding Schistosoma mansoni, multivariate analysis identified the behaviors of practicing swimming in the river/ponds and practicing open defecation, especially near water sources, as independent risk factors for Schistosoma mansoni infection among schoolchildren. The current study showed that rural areas in Taiz were significantly infected with IPIs, showing that IPIs remains a significant public health problem in low-income communities. Consequently, prevention efforts should focus on treating and deworming schoolchildren regularly, promoting health education in rural schools, conducting personal hygiene inspections for students, and ensuring that schools have sanitary facilities.
Buying a God in Paris: Cultural Hybridity in the Thinking of Yuri Vella, Forest Nenets Intellectual
Authors: Toulouze Eva , Niglas Liivo , Vallikivi Laur
Published: December 2022

This paper analyses highly creative and hybrid practices which tie the Indigenous Siberian, European Christian and Soviet worlds in unexpected ways. Reflecting on the Forest Nenets reindeer herder, poet and intellectual Yuri Vella’s understanding of the religious, the authors discuss an episode of turning an icon-like painting of Madonna with Child into a Nenets ‘god’. This took place in Paris half a year before Yuri’s death. First, we present his short biography, emphasising the key moments that shaped his cosmological and religious sensibilities. Then we depict a ritual of ‘god-making’ by using the ethnographic technique of thick description and then comment on it from various angles and discuss what they reveal about Yuri’s understanding of personhood and agency, relations with deities and other humans. Finally, we explain how animist notions and Christian elements become entangled in his religious thinking.
Objectified Values at Udmurt Prayers
Authors: Sadikov Ranus , Minniyakhmetova Tatiana
Published: December 2022

Ritual objects and belongings are still used today at Udmurt prayer rituals that have sacrifices. We would even go so far as to say that carrying out ceremonies without them is unthinkable. Depending on their function they can be defined in several groups: ritual utensils and dishes, ritual clothing, priestly attributes, sacrificial items, donation items/offerings. Currently, there is both the preservation of traditional items and the emergence of new ones to fulfil known ritual purposes. In some cases, when creating new items, one can discern the imitation of traditional forms and materials. The article examines the objects in connection with a definite ritual, looking at the essence of their utility and sacredness, their role in maintaining historical memory, and the composition and purpose of the ritual objects. The article then goes on to analyse the reasons for the modification of these objects.

The article* examines the sacred landscape in the space of Chuvash villages in the Samara Trans-Volga region. A sacred space is understood as a territory that, from the point of view of local people, has special properties and performs certain functions in their spiritual practices. Among the Samara Chuvash, represented in the majority by Orthodox communities, in the minority by pagans and Muslims, there are sites of various confessional origins as well as varying degrees of functionality and relevance in modern ritual practice from a actively used to completely forgotten. The article describes various types of sacred objects1 found in Chuvash villages in the Samara Trans-Volga region in the context of relevant religious practices, showing the attitude of the villagers to sacred sites and their significance in the formation of the religiosity of the Chuvash population in the region. The purpose of the research is to identify the principles of the sacralisation of space, its semantic characteristics, and the specificity and purpose of sacred sites. The object of study is cult sites associated with the natural-geographical environment and formed in close relationship with it (for example places of prayers and pilgrimage), as well as those arising in the course of human activities to create man-made sacred-spatial environments. The study showed that sacred sites make up an integral part of the religious space in Chuvash villages in the Samara Trans-Volga region, and set its spatial coordinates. These objects reflect both general ethnic traditions and local-historical plots associated with a specific area and its people. The formation of the sacred landscape took place with the development of new land, in the course of which a traditional model of the microcosm of the Chuvash peasant was created. The research is based on the archival, published and field material of the authors.
Territories of Fire : Indigenous Communities, Land, and Anarchy Among a Highland People in Mindoro
Authors: Rosales Christian A.
Published: December 2022

The article challenges the assumption that land tenure is contingent on acquiring a land title. It argues that for Indigenous peoples a land may be delineated, occupied, utilised, and collectively owned through the concept of territoriality. Through a combined ‘anarchist anthropology’ and political ecology the article provides ethnographic evidence from among the Tau-Buhid as a case in point to show that through their everyday relationship with fire and ignition practices territoriality is reinforced among their communities as a basis of land tenure. Thus, despite efforts of the Philippine state to phase out all kinds of fire practice on their land, a portion of which is a declared protected area, ignition continues as a way of orchestrating territorial autonomy against state sovereignty in the highlands. Ultimately, through such practices Indigenous lands have metaphorically transformed into ‘territories of fire’, a frontier where the state is irrelevant to Indigenous life and where state-control apparatuses are inoperable.
Environmental Sustainability Generated by the Views of the Skolt Sami and Gregory Bateson
Authors: Itkonen Panu
Published: December 2022

This article contributes to the debate about environmental sustainability, using the Skolt Sami conceptions of nature obligations as guides to this theme. The author’s recent research material is analysed in relation to other relevant publications and sources of environmental anthropology. Three key factors emerge: reasonableness in the use of natural resources, protection of nature, and respect for nature. Gregory Bateson’s models help to arrange these elements in relation to each other. It is argued here that respect for nature sets a scale for the conceptions of reasonableness and nature protection as the basis of environmental sustainability. The article produces questions and principles that may help put environmental sustainability into practice.
Rapid 90Sr quantification method based on the Bateman equation for routine laboratory work

Published: December 2022

Artificially introduced into the environment 90Sr is highly radiotoxic, so its content levels in foodstuff and biota require constant monitoring for radiological protection. Most analytical procedures used for 90Sr determination are time-consuming, and therefore, a faster approach is needed. Employing the Bateman equation enables more efficient exploitation of the secular equilibrium between 90Sr and its daughter radionuclide 90Y in the calculations. This article describes a method for computing the 90Sr activity concentration, while accounting for 90Y activity. The developed approach was tested and validated in terms of its applicability in everyday analysis.
Examining qualitative and quantitative features of verbal fluency tasks to investigate the mental lexicon in postpartum women: A neuropsychological approach of executive functions applied to language

Published: December 2022

During the postpartum period, women experience neurobiological and psychosocial variations that impact language functioning. Word production in verbal fluency tasks (VFTs) is a cognitive indicator of associative (semantic categorization and phonological analysis) and executive (inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility) processes. Also, a linguistic analysis allows for understanding production strategies (e.g., orthographic and use of rhymes), with multivariate statistics facilitating cluster identification of the most common words. Considering these approaches, this study aimed to optimize semantic and phonological VFT analysis for the identification of postpartum women’s mental lexicon using quantitative and qualitative scores. These outcomes were evaluated together with sociodemographic and reproductive data of 100 postpartum women (from Argentina). Mental lexicon description was statistically improved and showed that multiparous women clustered words more concisely than primiparous women, with increased correct words and better organizational strategies. In sum, female reproductive history improved VFT outcomes. The current results also show that factor analysis can optimize the neuropsychological study of language structuring.

This study focused on energy saving in energy hub system using smart grid technologies and management of the energy demand. The two-layer energy management is proposed for implementing energy saving. In first layer, energy demand such as electrical, thermal and natural gas are optimized subject to optimal level of the demand at day-ahead. Then, optimized energy demand is applied in second layer to reduction energy generation costs. The optimization of the proposed approach is done by shuffled frog leaping algorithm (SFLA), and results at several case studies to confirmation of the proposed approach are investigated.

Published: December 2022

There is no one unique parameter with value which can represent bioeconomy sustainability and development. However, many different parameters can be used to describe the economic, social, environmental technological aspects of bioeconomy. The paper present combined approach with using multi criteria decision analysis (MCDA) and fuzzy cognitive map (FCM) analysis methods for bioeconomy sustainability index. Study describe methodology of fuzzy cognitive map developing, including expert involving, obtained data from survey combination to bioeconomy indicators and categories. The weight of selected FCM components were normalized using MCDA method. The critical points of the applied method and opportunities for improvement have been identified. The role of respondents in the results is also considered.
Die «Seel des Commercii» der «Fetzen Krämer» Zellweger von Trogen - Textilfernhandel aus Appenzell Ausserrhoden nach Lyon und Genua, 1670 bis 1820
Authors: Zellweger Maya
Published: December 2022

Dieses Buch widmet sich der Geschichte der Textilhandelsgesellschaften Zellweger von Trogen von 1670 über die Sattelzeit bis 1820. Über den untersuchten Zeitraum von 150 Jahren werden zugleich Erkenntnisse von allgemeiner Bedeutung für die Handelsgeschichte der Alten Eidgenossenschaft des 18. Jahrhunderts formuliert. Die Autorin nimmt anstelle des bereits vielfach untersuchten städtischen Kaufmanns die Kaufleute in Leinwand und Baumwollware Zellweger als «Prototypen des Wirtschaftsbürgertums auf der Landschaft» in den Blick. In umfangreicher und akribischer Quellenarbeit analysiert sie deren Geschäftskorrespondenz und präsentiert ihre Handelsräume vor und nach der Industriellen Revolution, welche sich in Reaktion auf zeitgenössische, wirtschaftlich wegweisende Entwicklungen stets veränderten.
Sacro Egoismo! - Heinrich Walther und das nationalsozialistische Deutschland
Authors: Pfenniger Patrick
Published: December 2022

Was geschah hinter den Kulissen der vom «Dritten Reich» bedrohten Schweiz? Dieser Frage geht der Historiker Patrick Pfenniger nach. Er untersucht die Perspektive des damals einflussreichsten katholisch-konservativen Parlamentariers: des Luzerner National- und Regierungsrats Heinrich Walther (1862–1954). Obgleich Walther den Nationalsozialismus ablehnte, zeigte er sich nach dem Fall Frankreichs bereit, eine wirtschaftliche Kooperation mit Hitler-Deutschland voranzutreiben. Er wollte den Einfluss, den die Rechtskonservativen und insbesondere die Katholiken im Bundesstaat erlangt hatten, nicht wieder verlieren. Seine Haltung charakterisierte Walther als «Sacro Egoismo», als eine heilige Selbstsucht.
Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome type-2 and oculocutaneous albinism in Saudi children with pigmentation defect and easy bruising
Authors: Wajdi Fahad , Hasanain Deena , Masmali Hassan
Published: December 2022

Background: Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS) is an inherited multisystem disorder, which includes oculocutaneous albinism that might result from mutations in any 1 of at least 10 different genes. Biallelic mutations in AP3B1 on chromosome 5q14.1 are linked to HPS type 2 (HPS2). Lysosomal-related cell dysfunctions are caused by the AP3B1 gene mutation, which causes the adaptor protein 3 complex to form insufficiently.
Case Presentation: A case of a 6-year-old Saudi girl was reported with frequent nasal bleeding and skin bruises. On examination, the patient looked syndromic with hypopigmentation, brown hair, wearing glasses, had no nystagmus, and green iris. The whole-exome sequencing study results showed a novel homozygous mutation in AP3B1 gene c3173T
