Sloan, John (1871–1951)
Authors: Stenz Margaret
Published: February 2023

Painter, etcher, and illustrator John Sloan was a leading figure in the Ashcan School, a group of turn-of-the-century urban realists who used dark palettes and heavy brushwork to paint the grittier side of New York life. In 1892, while working as an illustrator at the Philadelphia Inquirer, Sloan enrolled in evening classes at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and co-founded the Charcoal Club, a group of local artists who met for informal discussions and sketching sessions in Robert Henri’s studio. Sloan followed Henri to New York City, where he became associated with ‘The Eight.’
de Kooning, Elaine (1918–1989)
Authors: Toteva Maia
Published: February 2023

Elaine de Kooning was an artist, critic, writer, and educator associated with the Abstract Expressionist movement. A central figure in New York’s art scene in the 1950s and 1960s, she was married to one of the leading Abstract Expressionists, Willem de Kooning. Her long and versatile career as a painter encompassed a range of styles, from abstract, gestural paintings to figural works and portraits. Her celebrated portraits of important figures, including President John F. Kennedy, gained especially high recognition. A dedicated educator, she taught at various institutions such as the Pratt Institute and Yale University. Becoming an editorial associate of Art News in 1948, Elaine de Kooning was one of the first critics to recognise and promote the work of avant-garde artists such as Arshile Gorky, Franz Kline, and Mark Rothko. Granted access to their studios, she wrote insightful first-hand observations on their personalities and techniques and became ‘the voice of the Abstract Expressionist movement’. Her late works were inspired by excursions in France and Spain and included series of prints and paintings that alluded to the prehistoric images of Palaeolithic caves.

The Presence of Messianism and Millenarianism in Brazilian Folk Religiosity in the Late Nineteenth and Early Twentieth Centuries

In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, numerous unorthodox Christian religious communities sprang up in many parts of the vast Brazilian interior. Their worldview basis was the belief that the present life takes place in times of cosmic and social crisis. Waiting for the day of the Last Judgement was associated with attempts to establish a just social order, consistent with Christian norms and values. These communities were led by charismatic leaders, perceived by their participants as incarnations of saints. In this article, we ask about the circumstances and reasons for this religious and social revival, and we consider them in the perspective of the meeting of European culture with the cultures of the New World, understood as the process of creating a new, common symbolic universe.
The Divine’s Presence. Conditions for Interpretation in the Philosophy of Eric Voegelin
Authors: Niezgoda Tomasz
Published: February 2023

This text is dedicated to uncovering conditions for interpretation in the philosophy of Eric Voegelin. According to Voegelin, human existence is a matter of interpretation and its essence is constituted in tension towards the so-called divine ground of reality, i.e. nonobjective transcendence. I argue that the condition for any understanding of the human being, as well as the reorientation of human existence, is the divine presence dwelling in language, in history and in the subject itself. However, it is not a presence of some kind of object, content, or being –rather, it is a unpresentable ‘flow’or ‘flux’of presence, a flow that instils a primordial mobility in reality and orients man in his being.
Parsing as a lifting problem and the Chomsky-Sch\"utzenberger representation theorem
Authors: Melliès Paul-André , Zeilberger Noam
Published: February 2023

We begin by explaining how any context-free grammar encodes a functor of operads from a freely generated operad into a certain "operad of spliced words". This motivates a more general notion of CFG over any category $C$, defined as a finite species $S$ equipped with a color denoting the start symbol and a functor of operads $p : Free[S] \to W[C]$ into the operad of spliced arrows in $C$. We show that many standard properties of CFGs can be formulated within this framework, and that usual closure properties of CF languages generalize to CF languages of arrows. We also discuss a dual fibrational perspective on the functor $p$ via the notion of "displayed" operad, corresponding to a lax functor of operads $W[C] \to Span(Set)$. We then turn to the Chomsky-Sch\"utzenberger Representation Theorem. We describe how a non-deterministic finite state automaton can be seen as a category $Q$ equipped with a pair of objects denoting initial and accepting states and a functor of categories $Q \to C$ satisfying the unique lifting of factorizations property and the finite fiber property. Then, we explain how to extend this notion of automaton to functors of operads, which generalize tree automata, allowing us to lift an automaton over a category to an automaton over its operad of spliced arrows. We show that every CFG over a category can be pulled back along a ND finite state automaton over the same category, and hence that CF languages are closed under intersection with regular languages. The last important ingredient is the identification of a left adjoint $C[-] : Operad \to Cat$ to the operad of spliced arrows functor, building the "contour category" of an operad. Using this, we generalize the C-S representation theorem, proving that any context-free language of arrows over a category $C$ is the functorial image of the intersection of a $C$-chromatic tree contour language and a regular language.

Knowledge and Attitude about Alternative Treatment in Cancer Patient
Authors: Lee Jee Weon , Lee Deog Young , Kim DaeHyun
Published: February 2023

The use of complementary alternative therapies in cancer patients are increasing with the increase in cancer incidence and treatment rates. Studies were conducted to find out about cancer patients’ knowledge and attitudes (treatment effect, intention to use) towards complementary and alternative therapies. 10 complementary alternative therapies (hyperthermia, ascorbate, thymosin, mistletoe, immunocyanin, selenium, Phellinus linteus, cholecalciferol, glutathione, herb remedies) were selected from evidence review. 100 patients who visited cancer care hospitals were surveyed about their knowledge and attitudes (effectiveness, treatment choices) by self-questionnaire. The total score for knowledge/attitude (effectiveness/intent to use) towards complementary and alternative therapies was 25.4 points (26.7 points/24.7 points, out of 40). Knowledge and attitude scores for hyperthermia were the highest, and knowledge and attitude scores for immunocyanin and glutathione were the lowest. Herbal remedies scored higher on knowledge but lower on attitude (effectiveness and choice). Vitamin C had moderate knowledge and effectiveness scores, but the highest intention-to-use score. There was a negative correlation between the effectiveness of complementary and alternative therapies and the choice of treatment regimen with lower scores as people aged. The use of complementary alternative therapies is increasing although the evidence has not been proven for the cancer cure rate or survival. It is necessary to recognize the effectiveness and limitations of complementary alternative therapies and educate patients so that they can choose the appropriate treatment. Further research is needed on the effects and side effects of various complementary alternative therapies used in addition to standard treatments.

Authors: Hajad Vellayati , Ikhsan Ikhsan , Herizal Herizal , Latif Ikhwan Rahmatika , Marefanda Nodi
Published: February 2023

This study aims to determine how a country's abundant natural resource wealth can be utilised to bolster its economy and alleviate poverty. This study focuses on the use of natural resources to expedite development. This investigation makes use of a library-based qualitative research strategy. Data was gathered by conducting a Scopus search for natural resources-related journal articles using titles, keywords, and abstracts as metadata search references, and then analysing the results with the VOSviewer tool. We used VOSviewer to determine how many articles had been published on natural resources and discovered that a country's natural resources exceed its economic development. The purpose of utilising VOSviewer is to use it as a resource to conduct precise content analysis based on the researcher's name, publication year, researcher productivity, and natural resource research trends. This analysis was conducted for the purpose of examining the author's collaboration in the natural resources and poverty fields. The results indicate that natural resource-rich regions do not guarantee increased economic growth or reductions in poverty. Poverty in Indonesia is a complex issue, despite the fact that a number of developing nations have been successful in implementing improvements in national production and income and in reflecting the level of well-being among the country's population. The conclusion demonstrates that the resource curse in Indonesia is a result of poor resource management, which causes poverty. The influence of the resource curse on government social spending emphasises the significance of government accountability and transparency in relation to natural resource wealth.

Role of bempedoic acid in patients with hypercholesterolemia and statin intolerance
Authors: Girardi José Marcos , Do Couto Antônio Alves
Published: February 2023

introduction: Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of death and disability worlwide. The LDL-C causes atherosclerosis and therefore lowering the levels of these lipoproteins reduces the risk of acute myocardial infarction and other cardiovascular events. Statins are competitive inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase and are the most cost-effective medicines for lowering LDL-C. Up to 80% of patients treated with statins do not achieve optimal LDL-C levels, explained by high baseline LDL-C levels, aggressive LDL-C treatment goals, lack of sufficient statin efficacy or drug intolerance. Objective: This review discusses the characteristics of statin intolerance and the mechanism of action, efficacy, and safety of Bempedoic Acid as a lipid-lowering agent. Methods: We searched PubMed, ScienceDirect, the Virtual Health Library and Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences Literature for articles published in the last five years using the following health descriptors: “bempedoic” OR “ATP-citrate lyase” AND hypercholesterolemia AND “coronary artery disease”. Results: Bempedoic acid is a prodrug that is converted to its active form (bempedoyl-CoA) by the acyl-CoA synthetase-1 enzyme. Acts two steps upstream from HMG-CoA reductase, the target of statins, in the same metabolic pathway, representing an additional lipid-lowering therapy. Conclusions:Bempedoic Acid’s active metabolite is an effective treatment option, alone or in combination with statin or ezetimibe, to lower LDL-C and reduce hsCRP, which is a marker of systemic inflammation associated with future risk of cardiovascular events, suggesting an anti-inflammatory response. Outcomes and cost-effectiveness are currently being investigated in the CLEAR Outcomes study, with results expected in 2023.

Coarse aggregates gradings have varying effects on the properties of concrete. Coarse aggregates of sizes 10mm, 20mm and 25mm were used for this study. Sieve analysis was conducted on these aggregates. Their coefficients of curvature (Cc) ranged between 1.01 and 1.19, while the coefficients of uniformity (Cu) ranged between 1.24 and 1.73, showing that they are all uniformly graded. 10mm and 25mm coarse aggregates were mixed in various proportions to produce five different concrete mixes (concrete C1, C2, C3, C4 and C5). Concrete C6 was produced with 100% 20mm and was used as a check. Slump test was performed for each mixture, C1 gave the highest slump height of 88mm. Compressive strengths of the cast concrete cubes were determined after 7- and 28-days curing periods. C4 gave maximum compressive strength of 26.33N/mm2 at 28 days. Increase in the percentages of 25mm aggregates resulted in higher compressive strength and decreased workability.

Published: February 2023

Literature is very important for our life. Literature can be enjoyed by all people, including children. There are many kinds of literature for children, namely fairy tales, folklore, children's songs, folklore, legends, and others. Literature for children is made like children's views. Imagination that emerges from children is summarized and researched into children's literature. Children's literature is made for education and as a means for children to grow to know literature. However, children need to get guidance from parents or adults in side by side with children's literature. Not all children's literature can be accepted by children. In some examples of children's literature there are things that are inappropriate for children to accept, such as fairy tales with a romantic genre. Therefore, the role of parents is important to help children get to know children's literature. Children cannot but coexist with literature. Literature for children helps children in their development. Literature for children exists so that children can express themselves as freely and as broadly as possible. Children must also accept literature and pass it on to the next generation. Without realizing it, humans live side by side with literature. Therefore, the role of parents and adults is very important in introducing literature to children.

Method: The case control study was carried out at the University of Karachi from April to November 2020, and comprised blood samples of female osteoarthritis patients aged >50 years and healthy controls matched for age and gender. Oxidative stress was assessed by measuring lipid peroxidation product and protein carbonyl content. Activities of paraoxonase-1 paraoxonase and arylesterase were evaluated in the subjects. Protein expression of paraoxonase-1 was also analysed using western blot method. Paraoxonase-1 L55M (rs854560) polymorphism was determined using tetra-amplification-refractory mutation system polymerase chain reaction. Data was analysed using SPSS® Statistics 20.0.
Results: Of the 103 subjects, 50(48.5%) were patients and 53(51.5%) were controls. The overall age range was 50-70 years. The extent of malondialdehyde (p<0.001) and protein carbonyl content (p<0.05) were increased significantly in the patients compared to the controls. Activity of paraoxonase and arylesterase was found decreased (p<0.001) in patients compared to the controls. The prevalence of genotype MM was higher in the patients than the controls(p=0.001). L55M was more pronounced in patients suffering than the controls (p=0.01).
Conclusion: The elevated levels of malondialdehyde and cabonylated protein content might be associated with osteoarthritis progression. Decreased serum paraoxonase-1 activity with L55M was the major consequence of oxidative stress in female osteoarthritis patients.

COVID-19 is a viral disease caused by a novel coronavirus that ignited the ongoing pandemic in December 2019. The infected patients may be asymptomatic, have fever and myalgias, develop mild pulmonary symptoms or go into overt respiratory failure. There is also a significant number of patients with gastrointestinal and thromboembolic disease presentation and complications. Since respiratory features predominate, physicians might miss other systemic manifestations. Here, we present the case of a 62-year-old male who was admitted with COVID-19 pneumonia and later went into septic shock and then developed acute abdomen caused by small gut perforation.
Keywords: COVID-19, Tocilizumab, gastrointestinal perforation (GI perforation), deep vein thrombosis.

Introduction. The cemetery soils are practically not studied, although they occupy significant areas in settlements. The cemetery soil cover consists of heavily disturbed necrozems (14-22%) and soils of inter-grave spaces, to a lesser extent transformed by man. The aim of the work was to determine the content of heavy metals in the cemetery soils in Rostov-on-Don and Bataysk. Materials and methods. In 2020-2021 seventy six soil samples were taken from the territories of the cemeteries of Rostov-on-Don and Bataysk. Basically, the topsoil layer of 0-10 cm was studied, several samples taken from necrozems and soils of inter-grave plots from a depth of 10-20 cm were also studied. The detection of the gross composition in soil samples was carried out by the X-ray fluorescence method on the Spectroscan MAKS-GV device. Results. In some samples of the cemeteries in Rostov-on-Don, a significant excess of the content of chromium, copper and arsenic was revealed compared to the background content. In six samples, the total zinc content was exceeded by 10 to 16 times and ranged from 1068 to 3969 mg/kg. In three Bataysk cemeteries, no excess of heavy metals (with the exception of chromium and zinc) was found. Limitations. In the work, 76 samples from 8 cemeteries of the Rostov agglomeration were studied, which is a fairly reference sample for such objects. Conclusion. The gross composition of the cemetery soils in the Rostov agglomeration corresponds to the typical values characteristic of the chernozems of the Rostov region. The excess of the background content of chromium and zinc in the soils between graves is associated with the use of metals and paint products containing these elements.

Introduction. The increased interest in viticulture in Russia makes mancozeb-based fungicides in demand. Safety and health of operators during application pesticides is a major concern in agricultural activities. Materials and methods. Field studies to determine the exposure of various formulations of mancozeb in the air of the working area and on the skin of the operators during airblast spraying of orchards were carried out. Margin of safety by exposure (KBtotal) and by absorbed dose (KBabs) were conducted. Exposure assessment included the determination of its probability. Results. Wettable powders compared with water-dispersible granules show a fivefold increase in the average concentrations of mancozeb found in the air of the work area and almost a threefold increase in the skin. Exposure and absorbed dose risk rates for wettable powders are three times higher than for water-dispersible granules. For one of the drugs, the total risk was higher than the tolerable risk. The probability distribution vector of possible danger states for the operator after the sixth hour of work shows the probability of an unacceptable state as the highest. Limitations. The scopes of the study were determined by studying the behaviour of mancozeb in the formulations of the wettable powder and water-dispersible granules during airblast spraying of orchards. Conclusion. For health safety purposes, mancozeb-based preparations should be used in compliance with the regulations and safety measures. Operators, who handle and apply pesticides in orchards, should be forcing to wear protective garments and personal protective equipment. The choice of water-dispersible granules formulation is preferable. Don’t exceed the application rate and spraying time.

Introduction. Despite the unique measures being taken at the Astrakhan Gas Processing Plant for personnel protection, the harmful exposure to the staff is not eliminated completely yet. Examination of the immune system is one of the methods of laboratory control over the gas-processing workers’ health and the system of measures for hygienic normalization of the working conditions. Materials and methods. The present study describes the working environment and evaluates the state of the immune system in workers with the use of the standard unified methods and approaches. A Brüel & Kjear 1302 multi gas monitor and a Tsvet-550 gas chromatograph were used to indicate pollutants. Examination involved one hundred sixty workers and 81 person from the control group (donors of Astrakhan Regional Blood Transfusion Center). The immune system was evaluated using the System 9000 Plus hematological analyser, Cyto FLEX LX flow cytometer, UNICO 2100UV specrophotometer, and KFK-3-03-ZOMZ photometer Results. The established set of the main unfavourable production factors includes air pollution of the work area with sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon, hydrogen sulphide, saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbons, and unfavourable microclimatic conditions. Occupational hazards cause in employees changes in the immune status including leukocytosis, lymphocytosis, changes in the composition of the lymphocyte population and T lymphocyte subpopulation, a decrease in the immunoglobulin content, lysozyme activity and phagocytosis index. Limitations. The study took into account only the effect of occupational hazards on the deviation of the immune status of workers engaged in natural gas and condensate processing. Conclusion. The authors consider the recorded changes to be adaptive. It suggests the possibility of normalization of the workers’ immune system functions with adequate rehabilitation measures.
