البحر في رواية أغانتا بورينا بوريناتا لـِهاليكارناس باليكجيسي والشّراع والعاصفة لِـحَنّا مينة
Authors: ALŞİBLİ İbrahim
Published: November 2021

يهدف البحث إلى الوقوف على جماليات تشكيل صورة البحر في رواية "أغانتا بورينا بوريناتا" لهاليكارناس باليكجيسي ورواية "الشراع والعاصفة" لحنا مينة دراسة أدبية مقارنة، وقد اتخذ البحث من أسس المدرسة الأمريكية في الأدب المقارن منهجاً لإظهار جماليات التشابه والاختلاف في صورة البحر بين الروايتين؛ التي تركز على المشترك الجمالي بين آداب الأمم المختلفة، ولا تلقي بالاً لمسألة التأثير والتأثُّر.
وجاء البحث في أربعة مباحث، تناول أولها اللغة السردية ودورها في رسم صورة البحر بشكل تخييلي في الروايتين بوساطة الكلمات والجمل والمقاطع السردية، ووقفَ على اللغة السردية في الروايتين من حيث تصوير حياة البحَّارة وعُمَّال الميناء والصيادين، وتناولَ الدور الوظيفي للغة السردية في تصوير الشخصيات والأحداث، وإظهار أشكال الصراع بين الإنسان والطبيعة، ووقفَ المبحث الثاني على تحليل دور المكان في تشكيل فضاء البحر، وأشكال حضور الأمكنة بنوعيها المغلقة والمفتوحة في الروايتين، وأثر الأمكنة المفتوحة في منح الرؤية السردية قدرةً على التعبير عن فضاء البحر الذي تجري فيه أحداث الروايتين، كما قارن المبحث الثالث بين تقنيات الزمن السردي في الروايتين، كالاسترجاع ودوره في إضاءة ماضي الشخصيات، والاستباق الذي يعني استشراف بعض الأحداث المستقبلية لإثارة فضول القارئ، ووقف المبحث الرابع على صورة البحر من منظور بطلي الروايتين (محمود) في رواية "أغانتا بورينا بوريناتا"، و(الطروسي) في رواية "الشراع والعاصفة"، والمقارنة بين أشكال تعبير الرؤية السردية لدى بطلي الروايتين عن موضوع البحر، ووجهة نظر كلٍ منهما في التعامل معه، وانتهى البحث إلى أن اللغة السردية متشابهة في الروايتين من حيث تصوير حياة البحَّارة وعُمَّال الميناء والصيادين، كما أسهمتْ في منح الشخصيات والأحداث مسحةً واقعيةً عكست طبيعة الحياة في البحر وأشكال الصراع بين الإنسان والطبيعة، وأظهرَ البحث أنَّ الأمكنة المفتوحة كانت أكثر حضوراً من الأمكنة المغلقة، وهو أمر يتماشى والبحر الذي تجري فيه أحداث الروايتين، كما ظهر البحر بوصفه ملاذاً يلجأ إليه بطلا الروايتين هرباً من عالم البر وتناقضاته والصراعات التي تحدث فيه نتيجة أطماع البشر، ورغبتهم في تطويع الطبيعة لتحقيق غاياتهم، في حين كان البحر مجالاً للبحث عن الذات، والحلم، والتأمل.

Published: November 2021

The present paper is devoted to the study of the possibility of estimating the reproductive potentials of wild ungulate populations, and possibly other large mammals, by the time series of their numbers. We have found out that this is possible, which is confirmed by the high quality of approximation of the time series of abundance by logistic curves, and the corresponding coefficients of their determination for different species ranged from 75 to 96%. For such calculations, one circumstance is necessary, which is that the population of the studied species has been briefly exposed to some unfavorable factor causing a significant reduction in its numbers with subsequent restoration to the previous level, or the time series should contain a well-expressed and extended section of the transition of the population from some lower level to the upper level of the population, passing into a stationary state. The values of the maximum exponential growth rates of ungulate populations that we obtained do not fundamentally differ from the data available in other researchers’ works. In addition, it should be borne in mind that our method for assessing the reproductive potentials of ungulates is statistical, with features accompanying all such methods, for example, in the presence of statistical errors in all determined parameters. However, the evaluation of the magnitude of these errors is a topic for a separate study.

Published: November 2021

Building Information Modelling (BIM) implementation is a dynamic process and there are a number of influential variables that may change throughout. There is little research on the dynamics of the change environment and the AEC organizations’ approaches to BIM adoption and implementation. A considerable number of BIM enablers have been identified and/or developed in the extant literature. However, stipulating BIM implementation enablers per se provides only a static view that is not adequate for describing effective management of BIM implementation in Architectural, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) organizations. This study is the second part of an ongoing research about BIM implementation enablers. In the first paper “Building Information Modelling (BIM) adoption and implementation enablers in AEC firms: a systematic literature review” (Abbasnejad et al., 2020) the organizational BIM enablers have been identified. The aim of this second paper is to (1) further review and validate the key BIM implementation enablers using both the existing literature and expert interviews, and (2) develop a structural model of the key enablers using the ISM technique to understand the mutual interaction of these enablers and identify the driving enablers and the dependent enablers. Twenty-eight enablers for BIM implementation were initially identified from the literature and subsequent discussion with experts from academia and industry has been conducted to select most key BIM implementation enablers. Eleven enablers were finally chosen based on the literature review and expert interviews and the Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) technique has been adopted to evaluate the contextual interrelationships among them. MICMAC (Matrix Impacts Cross-reference Multiplication Applied to a Classification) analysis was employed to classify the eleven enablers based on their dependence and driving power. The results indicate that there is no enabler in the autonomous cluster and this therefore signifies that all enablers are required for the implementation of BIM. BIM leadership and top management support have been identified as the enablers with the highest driving power in the initial stages of the BIM adoption and implementation process and for that reason, these enablers demand a greater priority given that there are other dependent enablers that will be impacted.

The paper assesses the activities of the cellular fur farming industry in the world, while noting the role of Russia. The world cellular fur farming, since the beginning of the last century, has been steadily developing and has achieved some success, annually producing 40–45 million skins, this was the optimum that allowed, along with meeting the needs of the world's population in fur, to regulate pricing policy. At the beginning of the XXI century, this balance was disturbed, some countries, such as China, Denmark, began to increase livestock, which led to overproduction of products, from this the price of fur fell. In 2020, the pandemic made adjustments, the number of caged fur-bearing animals in almost all countries sharply decreased. Question: who will have time to occupy the vacant niche? The role of Russia in this period.

Authors: Estanyol Elisenda
Published: November 2021

The purpose of this research is to find out how the organization of events adapted to the COVID-19 lockdown and how digital transformation can be a solution for events when physical distancing is required. Using a qualitative approach based on case studies, the article analyzes the
changes in the organization of traditional festivals during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown, focusing on Spain's five most populated cities. Complementary to the study, in-depth interviews were conducted with the heads of Protocol and Institutional Relations of the city councils in charge of
organizing these events. The results show that, although some festivals were postponed, others were redesigned to be held without an audience, enhancing live streaming, strengthening communication through social media, and offering virtual tours. COVID-19 has been a catalyst for event digitalization.
The existence as yet of only a small amount of scientific literature on how COVID-19 has impacted event and festival management makes this research a relevant contribution. This work provides insights for events crisis and emergency risk management, as well as for the digital transformation
of festivals. The study highlights the need for contingency plans for organizing events in situations that require physical distancing and how online tools and virtual events can be part of this solution.

Published: November 2021

Quite recently, speaking about diseases of the knee joint, the discussion, as a rule, was about older people, more often, over 60 years old. Problems such as arthritis, arthrosis, acute arthrosis and other diseases arising from wear and tear of the joint during life came to mind. Nowadays, everything has changed since adolescence. Young people at the beginning of the XXI century, in connection with the development of scientific, technical and computer progress, increases physical inactivity, which leads to various diseases of the musculoskeletal system. Today, a very large number of young people suffer from knee diseases, the genesis of which is mainly post-traumatic or mediated by the growth of pathologies of the knee joint tissues. Injuries can occur due to accidents, but some of them can be triggered by the presence in patients of such chronic processes as connective tissue dysplasia. This disease significantly increases the risks of weakening the ligamentous apparatus of the joint. As a result, the likelihood of injury increases. The article presents the author’s complex of physiotherapy exercises for the restoration of the knee joint (A. A. Pantyushina) after injuries and related operations.

Authors:   Russian state professional and pedagogical University, Ronzhina N. V. , Sidorova M. V. ,   Russian state professional and pedagogical University
Published: November 2021

This article is devoted to the formation of research skills as one of the mechanisms for the implementation of the competence-based approach in the lessons of law in the context of distance learning. The competence-based approach orients the teacher towards attracting students to independent research activities, allows them to understand and understand the importance of the discipline in a new way, to form students’ readiness to use the acquired knowledge, skills and methods of activity to solve practical problems and vital situations; which becomes especially relevant in the context of distance learning. The meaning of the competence-based approach is to create conditions for the formation of students’ experience in research activities through an independent solution of cognitive, communicative, organizational and other problems. At the same time, Law possesses rich capabilities and assumes a wide research field. The success of training largely depends on the organization of new types of independent research activities for students, in the course of which knowledge already developed by mankind is learned, which becomes personally significant for a particular researcher.

Background NICE guidance recommends patients with renal colic be offered surgical treatment, including extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL), within 48 hours if pain is uncontrolled or stones unlikely to pass. We compared outcomes for ureteric stone passage after ESWL with those of observation to ascertain the relative benefits of ESWL.

Methods We collected data on stone location, size and number of ESWL treatments required prospectively over 18 months. Stone passage was confirmed radiologically. Data were compared with MIMIC, a multi-centre collaborative study examining spontaneous stone passage after observation alone.

Results 166 patients had ESWL for ureteric stones. Median size was 6.5mm (IQR 5.0-8.0mm). 57.2% (N=95) were proximal stones. Smaller stones required fewer treatments (P=0.003). Patients with a ureteric stone <5mm required median 1.0 ESWL treatments (IQR 1.0-2.0). Ureteric stones 5-7mm had median 1.0 treatments (IQR 1.0-2.0) and stones >7mm median 2.0 treatments (IQR 1.0-2.0). Compared to MIMIC, patients with ESWL for stones <5mm were 11% more likely to achieve stone clearance (100.0% vs 89.0%, P=0.001). ESWL for 5-7mm stones had 28.1% greater clearance compared to observation (77.1% vs. 49.0%, P<0.001) and ESWL for stones >7mm 21% greater likelihood of clearance (50.0% vs. 29.0%, P<0.001). Proximal ureteric stones were 16.4% more likely to pass with ESWL than observation (68.4% vs 52%, P=0.02). Distal stones showed similar passage with ESWL (77.5%) and observation (83.0%), P=0.43.

Conclusions Proximal ureteric stones and those >5mm stones benefit most from ESWL. Results aid identification of patients whose stones are less likely to pass and warrant urgent review to consider ESWL.

Introduction There is an important clinical need to improve the treatment of high risk localised and locally advanced prostate cancer (PCa), and to reduce the side effects of these treatments. We hypothesised that multi-modality therapy combining radiotherapy and vascular-targeted photodynamic therapy (VTP) could PCa tumour control compared against monotherapy with each of these treatments alone. This could provide proof-of-concept to take to the clinic. VTP is a minimally invasive focal surgical therapy for localised PCa, which rapidly destroys targeted tumours through vascular disruption. Tumour vasculature is characterised by vessel immaturity, increased permeability, aberrant branching and inefficient flow. Fractionated radiotherapy (FRT) alters the tumour microenvironment and promotes transient vascular normalisation.

Materials and Methods We investigated whether sequential delivery of FRT followed by VTP 7 days later improves PCa tumour control compared to monotherapy with FRT or VTP alone.

Results FRT induced vascular normalisation changes in PCa flank tumour allografts, improving vascular function as demonstrated using dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging. FRT followed by VTP significantly delayed tumour growth in flank PCa allograft pre-clinical models, compared with monotherapy with FRT or VTP alone, and improved overall survival.

Conclusion Taken together, these results suggest that combining FRT and VTP could become a promising multimodal clinical strategy in PCa therapy. This provides proof-of-concept for this multi-modality therapy approach to take forward to early phase clinical trials.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a fatal malignancy characterized by an expansion of malignantplasma cells in the bone marrow (BM) and associated with osteolytic bone disease. MM ispreceded by the benign condition, monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance(MGUS). Understanding MGUS progression and development of MM bone disease is key forpatient management. We and others have previously demonstrated that diet-induced obesitypromotes myeloma progression, but the mechanisms underlying this remain unknown. The aimof the current study was to determine the effect of dietary cholesterol on MM development. A2% cholesterol diet was used to increase circulating LDL in mice. Mice were randomlydistributed to either a) cholesterol diet 4 weeks prior to 5TGM1 MM inoculation (pretreatment)or b) cholesterol diet 4 weeks prior to MM inoculation and continued for the entire experiment(continuous). Mice on the continuous cholesterol diet had increased tumour burden, associatedwith an increase in lipid droplet content of MM cells. No differences in tumour burden wereseen in those mice where cholesterol diet was halted at time of MM inoculation. In vitro,myeloma cells cultured with delipidated FBS had a 50% reduction in viability after 72 hours. Richcholesterol content lipoproteins (LDL) but not VLDL could restore MM cell viability, suggestingthat cholesterol is responsible for this lipid-depletion effect. Taken together, our results showthat high cholesterol promotes myeloma and results in a higher lipid content in myeloma cells,ultimately increasing BM tumour burden. Pretreatment with a cholesterol diet did not alterdisease progression suggesting a direct pro-tumourigenic effect of cholesterol. These resultsdemonstrate both the detrimental effect of cholesterol on myeloma progression and thepotential for dietary intervention approaches.
Respectarea drepturilor omului în regiunea transnistreană a Republicii Moldova / Respect for human rights in the Transnistrian region of the Republic of Moldova

Probably the motto that supports this article reveals very clearly that to ensure human rights there must be some foundations that are based on some values that are so natural in themselves that no doctrine is needed to explain them. The basic imperative that arises is that once there is a human being, he/she must enjoy the same rights as another human being, even if both are separated by a fence, a field or a river. The division of the population that took place in 1992 on the territory of the Republic of Moldova has led to different developments in terms of respect for human rights. Being in the same area,
in the same jurisdiction the population woke up with a different legacy that the country’s Constitution grants. Apparently, an act that was to be applied universally throughout the state remains inapplicable for 11% of its territory.

Review question / Objective: Shoulder pain is a common musculoskeletal disorder prompting many patients to seek treatment. Thermotherapy is a common treatment for shoulder which has been widely used in hospitals. But its efficiency has not been scientifically and methodically evaluated. This protocol aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Thermotherapy for treating shoulder pain. Information sources: Eight databases will be searched from their inception to October 2021. They are as follows: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, China Knowledge Resource Integrated Database (CNKI), Weipu Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals (VIP), Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), and Wanfang Database. There will be no limitation to study publication status or language. The search terms include shoulder impingement syndrome, rotator cuff, bursitis, adhesive capsulitis, frozen shoulder, shoulder pain, thermotherapy, diathermy, heat therapy, Moxibustion, and RCTs. The equivalent search words will be used in the Chinese databases.

We provide the first full K2 transiting exoplanet sample, using photometry from Campaigns 1–8 and 10–18, derived through an entirely automated procedure. This homogeneous planet candidate catalog is crucial to perform a robust demographic analysis of transiting exoplanets with K2. We identify 747 unique planet candidates and 57 multiplanet systems. Of these candidates, 366 have not been previously identified, including one resonant multiplanet system and one system with two short-period gas giants. By automating the construction of this list, measurements of sample biases (completeness and reliability) can be quantified. We carried out a light-curve-level injection/recovery test of artificial transit signals and found a maximum completeness of 61%, a consequence of the significant detrending required for K2 data analysis. Through this operation we attained measurements of the detection efficiency as a function of signal strength, enabling future population analysis using this sample. We assessed the reliability of our planet sample by testing our vetting software EDI-Vetter against inverted transit-free light curves. We estimate that 91% of our planet candidates are real astrophysical signals, increasing up to 94% when limited to the FGKM dwarf stellar population. We also constrain the contamination rate from background eclipsing binaries to less than 5%. The presented catalog, along with the completeness and reliability measurements, enable robust exoplanet demographic studies to be carried out across the fields observed by the K2 mission for the first time.

km s−1. The planetary nature of TOI-2109b was confirmed through radial-velocity measurements, which yielded a planet mass of 5.02 ± 0.75 M
Jup. Analysis of the Doppler shadow in spectroscopic transit observations indicates a well-aligned system, with a sky-projected obliquity of λ = 1.°7 ± 1.°7. From the TESS full-orbit light curve, we measured a secondary eclipse depth of 731 ± 46 ppm, as well as phase-curve variations from the planet’s longitudinal brightness modulation and ellipsoidal distortion of the host star. Combining the TESS-band occultation measurement with a K

-band secondary eclipse depth (2012 ± 80 ppm) derived from ground-based observations, we find that the dayside emission of TOI-2109b is consistent with a brightness temperature of 3631 ± 69 K, making it the second hottest exoplanet hitherto discovered. By virtue of its extreme irradiation and strong planet–star gravitational interaction, TOI-2109b is an exceptionally promising target for intensive follow-up studies using current and near-future telescope facilities to probe for orbital decay, detect tidally driven atmospheric escape, and assess the impacts of H2 dissociation and recombination on the global heat transport.
V488 Per Revisited: No Strong Mid-infrared Emission Features and No Evidence for Stellar/substellar Companions

Published: November 2021

We present characterization of the planetary system architecture for V488 Per, the dustiest main-sequence star known with a fractional infrared luminosity of ≈16%. Far-infrared imaging photometry confirms the existence of an outer planetary system dust population with a blackbody-fit temperature of ≈130 K. Mid-infrared spectroscopy probing the previously identified ≈800 K inner planetary system dust population does not detect any obvious solid-state emission features, suggesting either large grain sizes that mute such emission and/or grain compositions dominated by species like amorphous carbon and metallic iron, which do not produce such features. In the latter case, the presence of significant quantities of iron-rich material could be indicative of the active formation of a Mercury-like planet around V488 Per. In any event, the absence of solid-state emission features is very unusual among main-sequence stars with copious amounts of warm orbiting dust particles; we know of no other such star whose mid-infrared spectrum lacks such features. Combined radial velocity monitoring and adaptive optics imaging find no evidence for stellar/substellar companions within several hundred astronomical units of V488 Per.
