A Comparative Study of Linguistic Features of English Agricultural Journal Abstracts Written by American and Chinese Scientists
Authors: Xu Wenli , Tang Yi
Published: December 2020

The present study investigated the variations in linguistic features of English academic writing by American and Chinese scientists by building a corpus of 600 English agricultural journal abstracts and using the natural language processing tool Coh-Metrix. Through a one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and a discriminant function analysis (DFA), we statistically analyzed the corpus texts based on their lexical, syntactic and cohesive features and generated 8 distinguishing linguistic indices. The results indicated that Chinese scientists tended to write abstracts with more frequent words, more similar sentence structures, more modifiers per noun phrase and more agentless passive voice forms, while the American counterparts tended to write abstracts with a wider range of vocabulary, more specific terms, more words with multiple senses and more adversative connectives. These findings offer good guidance for Chinese scientists to write in a style closer to the agricultural research field and the native speakers so as to get their manuscripts better reviewed and more easily published. These findings also have practical implications for the development of agricultural English teaching materials as well as the curriculum design.

Tympanoplasty is one of the most performed procedures in ENT. The aggressiveness of its microscopic approach has led otologists to adopt the endoscopic approach as a less invasive alternative. The purpose of this work is to appreciate the advantages and disadvantages of this surgical technique. We conducted a prospective descriptive cross-sectional study on 20 interventions within the ENT department of August the 20th 1953 Hospital of Casablanca from April 2019 to June 2019. The average age of operated patients was 36.3 years. Perforations were unilateral in (71%) of the cases with a predominance of the anterior (29%) and subtotal (36%) locations. The tympanoplasties were performed by 3 different senior otologic surgeons, and were left in (57%). The mean operating time was (59.5 min) and the mean anesthesia duration was 75.1 min. Intraoperative vision allowed us to fully visualize the margins of all perforations (100%) and anatomical structures of the middle ear in almost all interventions. The first procedures carried out were filled with difficulties whose management of intraoperative bleeding was the main one in (42.8%) of the cases. (57%) procedures were described as easy. No complication was detected intraoperatively or immediately postoperatively. Endoscopic tympanoplasty has several advantages, including: Minimally invasive approach to the middle ear; panoramic perioperative vision; Gain of operating time; decrease in the duration of anesthesia; Valuable educational tool; postoperative comfort; Decrease in hospital stay and early return to daily activities; Better aesthetic rendering; cost and transportability. However, we also note a number of disadvantages of endoscopic tympanoplasty, particularly: performing the procedure with one hand; difficulty passing through the EAC; 2D vision that alters the perception of depth; management of intraoperative bleeding; fogging; learning curve.

Introduction: Tuberculosis is one of the top ten killers worldwide. In 2015, an estimated one million children developed the disease and 170,000 died from it. We report three cases of pulmonary tuberculosis in infants diagnosed and treated in the pediatric ward of the Mali Hospital. Clinical cases: Observation 1: He is a 7 month old infant hospitalized for fever and weight loss. He received the BCG. There was no notion of TB contagion. On admission, he had poor nutritional status with a Zscore <- 3 and pallor. He had bronchial groans. Xpert / RIF returned positive to M. tuberculosis sensitive to rifampicin. An anti-tuberculosis treatment (2RHZ / 4RH) associated with the transfusion of the globular concentrate at a rate of 20 ml / Kg / 1d over 1 hour and nutritional management have been instituted. After 2 months of treatment, we observed clinical radiological improvement. Xpert control of gastric fluid returned negative. Observation 2: He was an 8-month-old infant hospitalized for fever and weight loss. He did not receive BCG. There was no notion of family storytelling. On admission, he had a poor nutritional status with a Z score <-3. The respiratory rate was 32 cycles / min. There were crackling groans. Direct gastric fluid examination and Xpert / RIF were positive for M. tuberculosis sensitive to rifampicin. He could not be treated because the family requested discharge against all medical advice. Observation 3: He was a 10 month old infant admitted for cough, fever and weight loss. He received the BCG, there was the notion of family contagion. At the entrance, he had a poor nutritional status with a zscore <- 3. He had a polypnea at 45 / min and crackling groans. Direct examination and culture of gastric fluid were positive for rifampicin-sensitive M. tuberculosis. A treatment including oxygen, anti-tuberculosis drugs (2RHZ / 4RH) and nutritional management was initiated. Within 2 months of treatment, we observed clinical and radiological improvement. Direct examination and culture of gastric fluid returned negative. Conclusion: tuberculosis in infants is poorly documented because of unspecific symptoms and difficulties in obtaining bacteriological confirmation. It should be systematically sought in all malnourished infants in endemic countries.

Authors: Sanusi Ahmad
Published: December 2020

Rumah Tahanan Negara sebagai salah satu sub sistem dari sistem peradilan pidana (an criminal justice  sistem)  khususnya  dalam  pengelolaan  penahanan  menjadi penting karena  lembaga penahanan bukan saja menjadi masalah hukum, akan tetapi terkait juga dengan masalah hak asasi seorang tersangka, sehingga timbul pertanyaan bagaimana perspektif hokum dan hak asasi manusia terhadap pengeluaran tahanan demi hokum bagi tersangka. Pertanyaan selanjutnya bagaimana perspektif hak asasi manusia terhadap pengeluaran tahanan demi hukum bagi tersangka. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui secara juridis formil pengeluaran tahanan demi hukum oleh kepala rumah tahanan negara; dan perspektif hak asasi manusia bagi tersangka, metode yang digunakan tipologi penelitian hukum normatif, pengeluaran tahanan demi hukum oleh Kepala Rumah Tahanan Negara sebagaimana diatur Pasal 19 Ayat (7) Kitab Undang-undang Hukum Acara Pidana (KUHAP) sudah cukup kuat secara juridis, akan tetapi diwajibkan pemberitahuan terlebih dahulu kepada penegak hukum yang bertangungjawab menahan minimal 10 (sepuluh) hari sebelum habis masa penahanan. Untuk peningkatan kerjasama penegakan hukum, perlu kiranya membangun sistem administrasi persuratan antar unit pelaksana teknis penegak hukum (Kepolisian, Kejaksaan, Pengadilan Negeri, Rumah Tahanan Negara/Lembaga Pemasyarakatan).
Problematika Pemberian Bantuan Hukum Struktural dan Non Struktural Kaitannya dengan Asas Equality Before The Law
Authors: Triwulandari Agung Mas
Published: December 2020

Bantuan hukum struktural mengasumsikan bahwa kemiskinan masyarakat lebih dikarenakan kondisi struktural yang timpang. Apabila paradigma lama bantuan hukum hanya bertumpu pada bantuan hukum melalui jalur hukum saja, tanpa didukung oleh pendekatan yang bercorak struktural, maka gerakan bantuan hukum tidak akan efektif, maka strategi bantuan melalui jalur hukum wajib didukung oleh suatu gerakan yang meruntuhkan ketimpangan tersebut. Kajian ini membahas problematika pemberian bantuan hukum bagi masyarakat dan bagaimana refleksi asas equality before the law melalui pemberian bantuan hukum struktural dan non struktural. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah pendekatan kualitatif, metode pengumpulan data melalui studi kepustakaan, dan teknis analisis data bersifat kualitatif. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa problematik pemberian bantuan hukum struktural dan non struktural dipengaruhi oleh kerangka hukum normative pemberian bantuan hukum yang tidak bekerja, dll, sedangkan refleksi asas equality before the law berkaitan dengan pemberian bantuan hukum struktural dan non struktural ini sudah dimuat dalam pasal 28D ayat (1) Undang-Undang Dasar 1945, yaitu bahwa setiap orang berhak atas pengakuan, jaminan, perlindungan, dan kepastian hukum yang adil serta perlakuan yang sama di hadapan hukum. Asas ini sebagai prinsip yang sangat vital dalam pemberian bantuan hukum struktural dan non struktural, hal Ini juga merupakan konsekuensi Negara Indonesia sebagai negara hukum (pasal 1 ayat (3) UUD 1945 hasil perubahan ketiga). Ada tiga prinsip negara hukum (rechstaat), yaitu supremasi hukum (supremacy of law), kesetaraan di hadapan hukum (equality before the law), dan penegakan hukum dengan cara-cara yang tidak bertentangan dengan hukum (due process of law).

О динамике рыночной капитализации нефтегазодобывающих компаний
Authors: Балабин А. А.
Published: December 2020

Рассматриваются особенности формирования рыночной капитализации двух публичных нефтегазодобывающих компаний России и США в ходе торгов на Лондонской и Нью-Йоркской фондовых биржах в 2006–2020 гг. На их примере показано, что разрыв в рыночной капитализации российской и американской компаний-аналогов продолжает последовательно увеличиваться в рассматриваемый период, несмотря на значительный прогресс в развитии рыночной инфраструктуры и внедрение норм корпоративного управления в России. Отставание величины рыночной капитализации российских компаний от их зарубежных аналогов не могут объяснить ни традиционные факторы, влияющие на рыночную капитализацию нефтегазодобывающей компании (цены на сырую нефть, уровень добычи, размер доказанных запасов, развитие рыночной институтов и т.п.), ни экономические санкции, наложенные на компании российского нефтедобывающего сектора. Предположительно, снижение рыночной капитализации можно рассматривать как побочный эффект усиления роли государства в отрасли.

Belâ-Musibetler Üzerine Fıtrat Eksenli Bir Okuma
Authors: AĞIRKAYA Güven
Published: December 2020

İnsan, çift yönlü bir zeminde hayat bulan bir varlıktır. Bu zeminin bir tarafı bolluk-bereket ve afiyet; diğer tarafı bela-musibet ve hastalık olabilmektedir. Herşeyin zıttıyla kaim olduğu ilkesi bu durumun bir ifadesidir. Hayat denilen vakıanın hakikati de bu şekildeki sürüp gelmiştir. Hayattaki bu düalist yapı bir düzensizliğin değil bilakis bir dengenin belirtisidir. Bu meyanda evren ve içindeki bütün varlıklar Allah’ın birer eseridir. Bu eserlerle ilgili beşer idrakini hayran bırakan fazlaca unsur mevcuttur. İnsan bu eserlerin en mükerremidir. Özellikle evrendeki işleyiş ve düzene bakıldığında ilk başta zihinlerde beliren husus dengedir. Bir başka ifade ile zerreden küreye bütün varlık, yaratan tarafından belirlenmiş bir denge ile ayakta durmaktadır. Yüce yaratıcı bütün mahlûkatı adeta kodlayarak onları varlık alanına koymuştur. Fıtrat olarak da ifade edilen bu kodlama, küçükten büyüğe her bir varlığın sebep-sonuç döngüsü içerisinde varlığını sürdürdüğü en doğal halidir. Varlığın kendine has bu doğal hali yaratıcının koyduğu dengenin fesada uğramaması için elzemdir. İlgili çalışmalarda fıtrat konusu insan-din merkezli ele alındığı için bütüncül değil parçacı bir yaklaşım ortaya konulmaktadır. Bu parçacı yaklaşım ise çoğunlukla insan-fıtrat ilişkisini ön plana çıkardığı için varlık-fıtrat ilişkisi geri planda kalmış olmaktadır. Zira parçacı yaklaşımlar konu veya kavramların bütününe değil ancak bir-iki yönüne işaret etmektedir. Bu araştırmada belâ-musibetler, varlık-fıtrat eksenli bir okuma ve bütüncül bir yaklaşımla mütalaa edilmiştir. Bu mütalaada hem teolojik hem de bilimsel verilerden yararlanılmıştır.

Rubber gloves are widely used for hand protection in medical, food industries, and household purposes. The Indonesian national standard (SNI) that regulates quality specifications of these products is SNI 06-1301-1989, while for international standard is ISO 20057:2017. This study aimed to assess whether or not the SNI 06-1301-1989 needs to be updated referred to ISO 20057:2017 using comparative analysis. Eight samples of rubber household gloves have tested using ISO 20057:2017 as guidance. The result treated using descriptive analysis method then SNI 06-1301-1989 and ISO 20057:2017 were being compared. The result showed that only 4 samples namely G1, G2, G3, and G8 fulfilled requirements. Based on the result, several update were recommended for SNI 06-1301-1989 following ISO 20057:2017. Specifications such as letter and number size code and whether the gloves are ambidextrous or hand specific should be on the package. A uniform finish, free from discoloration appearance also width, length and thickness dimension and pH test needs to follows ISO 20057:2017 since latex allergen is can be found. Physic test i.e. tensile strength and elongation at break at standard laboratory temperatures and humidity and tensile strength after ageing should be kept as well as liquid for immersion test while tear strength and permanent set at 200% was unnecessary.
Collagen β(1-O) galactosyltransferase 2 (COLGALT2) is differentially expressed in the tumors of breast cancer patients treated with trastuzumab.
Authors: Mamoor Shahan
Published: December 2020

Trastuzumab (Herceptin) is a monoclonal antibody targeting the extracellular domain of the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) (1) utilized for the treatment of adjuvant and metastatic breast cancer (2) in the United States and worldwide. We mined published microarray data (3, 4) to discover in an unbiased manner the most significant transcriptional changes associated with trastuzumab treatment. We identified the collagen β(1-O) galactosyltransferase 2, COLGALT2, as among the genes most differentially expressed in the primary tumors of patients with breast cancer treated with trastuzumab. The primary tumors of breast cancer patients treated with trastuzumab expressed higher levels of COLGALT2 messenger RNA than did patients not treated with trastuzumab, demonstrating increased expression of an enzyme involved in collagen glycosylation and associated with metastasis and proliferation in osteosarcoma (5) as a transcriptional consequence of treatment with trastuzumab.

Young adults and employment planning during a pandemic (COVID-19): Decision-making self-efficacy as a mediator between emotional intelligence and career indecision
Authors: Gray Magnus , Kim Minsung , Lee Seungyeon
Published: December 2020

Empirical findings show that students feel more stressed about their future positions during the isolation of a pandemic (Mahmud, Talukder, & Rahman, 2020). This study examines the dynamics of personality traits that interfere with occupational decisions among young adults, especially during a pandemic. Probable factors related to indecision are planning, emotional intelligence (EI), and career decision self-efficacy (CDSE). As such, we conducted three multiple regression analyses to predict CDSE, such as planning and indecision from the Big 5 personality measures. We hypothesized that EI and personality affect employment conflicts (Study 1), and that CDSE mediates EI and planning difficulty (Study 2). Two out of five personalities, conscientiousness and openness, significantly predicted CDSE, F(5, 128) = 15.64, p < .001, R2 = .38, while only neuroticism was statistically significant in predicting CSPS, F(5, 128) = 3.94, p < .01, R2 = .13. When predicting employment indecision, neuroticism was significant for personality variables, F(5, 128) = 5.58, p < .01, R2 = .18 while a negative correlation was found between EI and career indecision (r = -0.25, at p < .01). Results demonstrate that the positive effect of CDSE mediated EI’s link to any big decision, which reveals that conscientiousness also predicted participants’ occupational indecision (β = -0.17, p < .05), as well as the effect of EI on their choices, mediated by CDSE. This study expands on Gray, Lee, and Kim’s study (2020) by conducting a remediation analysis. Building organizational frameworks that allow college students to pursue their professional goals was critical in maximizing their full potential.
