Presenting Archaeoacoustics Results Using Multimedia and VR Technologies
Authors: Till Rupert
Published: December 2023

Music and sound cannot be experienced through writing and numbers. Writing freezes time onto paper; as a time-based medium, sound cannot be heard without temporal motion, and acoustic metrics are silent data. For a complete experience of sound, it needs to engage our bodies. Digital multimedia technologies offer powerful approaches to understanding the acoustics of the past, and this work will explore a number of those affordances. In particular, this work explores the use of apps that illustrate archaeoacoustic effects, set digitally within visual and acoustic archaeological cultures. The ways of immersing audiences through projection, acoustic simulation, field and studio recordings, and musical performance will be discussed. The use of virtual reality (VR) headsets is explored to create a sense of deep-flow and presence amongst audiences, total immersion in an experiential phenomenological understanding of interacting audio and visual fields, as well as setting such results within an appropriate context. This study will examine how acoustics results at caves in Northern Spain, in various phases of Stonehenge, and at Paphos Theatre (all World Heritage Sites) can be explored using VR and multimedia technologies, evaluating the comparative advantages of the use of different technologies. It proposes that such integration of visual and sonic modelling using interactive digital technologies is effective as a non-representational theory approach to compliment empirical studies, allowing understanding that goes beyond numerical analysis and binary dialectics to engage directly with the material of archaeological sites in an embodied manner, and address the real-world complexities of acoustic ecologies and their contexts.
Bourdieu and Working-Class Neighbourhoods: What Place for Ordinary Aesthetics?
Authors: Rabaté Ulysse
Published: December 2023

Today, an extensive body of research has been produced on the history of mobilisation by residents of working-class neighbourhoods in France and by those who identify with them. These analyses have changed our understanding of contemporary mobilisations, but the existing discourse should not prevent us from reflecting on the alternative modes of engagement that are emerging in these neighbourhoods. These commitments contribute to the “making” of a distinct political culture, rooted in practices and discourses hybridised within working-class lifestyles. Is there an elective affinity between Bourdieu’s theoretical framework and the mobilisations of working-class neighbourhoods? If so, how can this framework provide a productive interpretation of the ordinary actions interwoven into the daily fabric of these social spaces? One way of answering these questions is to consider these actions as a form of political knowledge that reveals alternative ways of considering politics.
Influence of temperature and humidity coupling on rutting deformation of asphalt pavement
Authors: Zhang Kai , Wang Shiyu , Yang Wenrui , Zhong Xuwen , Liang Sheng , Tang Zhiyi , Quan Weijie
Published: December 2023

In this article, ABAQUS finite-element software is used to establish an asphalt pavement structure model under high-temperature environment in summer. The changes in the temperature field and moisture concentration field of asphalt pavement are studied under the condition of 1-day continuous temperature change. The creep model is used to analyse the influence of ambient temperature and humidity on the rutting deformation of asphalt pavement. The results show that the maximum temperature of asphalt pavement can reach 60°C in the high-temperature environment in summer. The temperature accumulation effect causes the temperature of the middle and lower layers to increase by approximately 10°C, which easily induces rutting. Ambient humidity has a great influence on the change in moisture concentration in the upper layer. Considering the influence of ambient humidity in the high-temperature environment, the rut depth increases by 67%.
Death and Emotion
Authors: Fögen Thorsten
Published: December 2023

This article examines death narratives about dogs, an animal species which had a special significance for the Greeks and Romans. The analysis starts with one particularly famous animal: Odysseus’ dog Argus in Homer’s Odyssey, a case that may be seen as the archetype of ancient descriptions of an animal’s death. This constitutes the basis for the discussion of several other texts: (1) a short passage from Theophrastus’ Characters on the death of a Maltese dog (Char. 21.9), (2) the epitaph for the Maltese dog Taurus (Anth. Pal. 7.211), (3) the tombstone for the dog Aeolis (AE 1994.0348), (4) the epitaph for the Gallic dog Margarita (CIL 6.29896), and (5) the tombstone for the Gallic dog Myia (CIL 13.488). The various different death narratives investigated here not only reveal the animals’ characteristics and the meaning that they had for their owners, but also shed some interesting light on the owners themselves, in particular on their social status.
Temporalnost humanitarne skrbi
Authors: Pozniak Romana
Published: December 2023

Praksama i politikama humanitarne skrbi u okviru aktualnog režima migracija u Hrvatskoj, ali i u širem kontekstu europske (semi)periferije, ovaj rad pristupa kroz analitičku prizmu koncepta temporalnosti. Pritom se fokusira na individualnu i iskustvenu razinu humanitarnoga rada, ali i na šire shvaćen proces humanitarizacije skrbi i s njim povezane transformacije uloge i položaja humanitarnih organizacija. Uzimajući u obzir autoričino višegodišnje iskustvo istraživanja humanitarnoga rada i nevladinih organizacija angažiranih na pružanju pomoći izbjeglicama / tražiteljima azila / osobama u pokretu, članak pokazuje različite načine na koje temporalni aspekti humanitarnoga angažmana zrcale politike upravljanja migracijama. Izdvajajući tri primjera iz provedenog etnografskog istraživanja, rad propituje kako temporalno analitičko usmjerenje doprinosi tumačenju uloge humanitarizma u režimima migracija. Prvi primjer tiče se organizacijske održivosti humanitarnih inicijativa, drugi primjer adresira zatiranje trajne kategorije skrbnoga rada u humanitarnom sektoru, a treći primjer analizira humanitarnu stanicu kod Paromlina kao dio temporalnoga upravljanja migracijskim kretanjima.

Authors: Remecas Eduardas
Published: December 2023

The article examines the issue of money in special circumstances in the towns of Klaipėda and Šilutė in 1918–1923. The main focus is on trying to find out when this money was put into circulation and how long it circulated, as well as to indicate the reasons for its use and to provide new information about the circumstances of the creation of this money. The research has made it possible to reveal many unknown facts: to clarify the dates, to identify new reasons for issuing the money, and to learn about the people who contributed to the creation of this money.
Transitional Justice at 40
Authors: Encarnación Omar G.
Published: December 2023

Transitional justice, a movement devoted to bringing accountability to departed political regimes, has been the engine of the international human rights community in the past four decades. But while much has been said about how transitional justice enables successful democratic transitions, some of the movement’s legacy is more checkered—from endangering such transitions to rekindling old feuds and undermining the rule of law. Acknowledging this seldom discussed darker side of transitional justice is not an argument against holding an old regime to account for its actions, but rather a recognition of the limits of what justice can do to advance democratization.

The Invisible Lake of Sa’ādat-ābād and the Safavid Architecture of Affect
Authors: Hosseini Sahar
Published: December 2023

Isfahan’s selection as the capital of Persia’s Safavid Empire (1501–1736) at the turn of the seventeenth century set off multiple phases of growth in the city. This included the development of Shah Abbas II’s (r. 1642–66) palatial complex of Sa’ādat-ābād, which encouraged Isfahan’s engagement with the nearby river Zāyandehrud. This article expands the discourse examining the river beyond the domain of nature by exploring the Zāyandehrud as a designed environment and a site of architectural imagination and action. As shown in this study, the river and the complex interconnections between natural and cultural systems played a central role in shaping the scheme of this royal complex. While a lack of visual and archaeological evidence has kept rivers and lakes on the sidelines in most studies of premodern Islamic water architecture, this article provides a new perspective on the roles of such bodies of water through a close reading of Safavid poetry, contemporary prose, spatial analysis, and architectural reconstructions.
The Resonance of the Romantic Horn Call in the Reception of Brahms’s Trio, Op. 40
Authors: Phillips Reuben
Published: December 2023

The high level of canonicity enjoyed by Brahms’s chamber music since the final decades of the nineteenth century easily obscures the roles different performance settings, media, and listening practices have played in shaping how individual works are heard and interpreted. In the case of the Trio for Piano, Violin, and Waldhorn (1865), perhaps Brahms’s most singular essay in chamber music, the issue seems particularly acute given the culturally specific associations of the Waldhorn and the unusually important role accorded to timbre in this mid-nineteenth-century chamber work.

This article considers the “resonance” of the Waldhorn in the Horn Trio in terms of its symbolic associations and sounding presence. Drawing on early critical assessments of the trio in German-language music periodicals, the investigation explores the Romantic qualities of the work noted by early writers, elucidating the symbolism of the Waldhorn and Brahms’s deployment of the contrasting affects and temporalities associated with this instrument in his multi-movement composition. The later sections of the article discuss performances of the trio in relation to two important contexts: the developing institutional norms for public chamber music performance in Vienna during the 1860s, and the domestic reception of the classical chamber canon through gramophone recordings in Britain in the 1920s and 1930s. These episodes illustrate how particular contexts and media might throw into relief different aspects of the Horn Trio’s compositional design, while suggesting ways in which the relatively fragile aesthetic at the heart of this work has been reengaged in the technological reception of Brahms’s music.
O discurso referido directo no contexto do cambio de código
Authors: Atanes Barciela Lois Xacobe
Published: December 2023

Neste artigo analízase o uso de citas referidas directas en galego en discursos realizados en lingua española. Tomamos como base empírica as entrevistas dirixidas recollidas no corpus ESLORA, as cales son clasificadas en tres grupos: 1) presenza de citas directas en español; 2) presenza de citas directas en español e/ou galego; 3) ausencia de citas directas. A seguir, reflexionamos sobre a función sociolingüística dos casos recollidos no grupo número 2. Seguindo a formulación teórica de Celso Álvarez Cáccamo (1987, 1998, 2000), conectamos esta análise coas diferencias entre o cambio de código, que implica a apertura dun proceso de recontextualización do código comunicativo por parte do falante, e a alternancia de linguas, que carece del. A alternancia de linguas prodúcese en contextos bilingües cando un falante introduce termos, expresións ou formas dunha lingua A nun discurso proferido nunha lingua B, sen que exista dito proceso de recontextualización. Argumentamos que as citas referidas directas en galego, en discursos construídos en español como lingua principal, deben ser codificadas como fenómenos asociados ao cambio de código: a introdución deste tipo de citas directas é o resultado dunha negociación discursiva que deriva na recontextualización do código comunicativo, isto é, no cambio dunha lingua A a unha lingua B. Consideramos que este cambio está determinado polas estruturas sociais dos falantes. Na nosa investigación aplicamos unha metodoloxía cuantitativa na análise das ocorrencias recollidas no corpus, e unha perspectiva cualitativa na interpretación da motivación lingüística dos informantes.
Geometric phase for investigation of nanostructures in approaches of polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography
Authors: Zenkova C.Yu. , Angelsky O.V. , Ivanskyi D.I. , Chumak M.M.
Published: December 2023

Proposed paper presents the latest results in the framework of polarization-sensitive low-coherence interferometry related to new approaches for using the geometric phase to reproduce the polarization structure of a biological transparent anisotropic micro (nano) object. The polarization parameters of an anisotropic object are measured in real time on the basis of a modified Mach-Zehnder interferometer. The advantage of using the geometric phase is the diagnostic of polarization anisotropic surface (subsurface) nanosized layers in a non-contact, non-invasive manner.
Effect of scandium atoms substitution on the two-slab structure of scandate BaGd2Sc2O7

Published: December 2023

Tetragonal crystal structure (space group P42/mnm (No 136)) of the isovalently substituted BaGd2Sc2-xInxO7 phase with x = 0.5 was determined by X-ray powder diffraction methods. The crystal structure of BaGd2Sc1.5In0.5O7 consists of two-dimensional perovskite-like blocks with a thickness of two slabs of (Sc,In)O6 octahedra connected by vertices. A slab of GdO9 polyhedra is located between the blocks. There are no direct (Sc,In) – O – (Sc,In) connections  between the octahedra of adjacent blocks. They are "stitched" to each other with the help of – O – Gd – O – bonds. Ba atoms are arranged only in the cubooctahedral voids of the perovskite-like block and their coordination number is 12. Analysis of the crystal chemical characteristics of BaGd2Sc2O7 and BaGd2Sc1.5In0.5O7 showed that upon the isovalent substitution of Sc atoms by large In atoms in slab perovskite-like structure leads to increase of the deformation degree of (Sc,In)O6 octahedra, GdO9 interblock polyhedra, increase in average (Sc,In) – O bond length and a decrease the degree deformation of BaO12 cuboctahedrons. Such changes lead to the destabilization of the slab perovskite-like structure and determine the limitation of the area of BaGd2Sc2-xInxO7 solid solutions and the absence of BaGd2In2O7 compound.
Effect of Mn2+ substitution on catalytic properties of Fe3-xMnxO4 nanoparticles synthesized via co-precipitation method
Authors: Danyliuk Nazarii , Lapchuk Ivanna , Kotsyubynsky Volodymyr , Boychuk Volodymyra , Husak Viktor
Published: December 2023

Mn-substituted magnetite samples Fe3-xMnxO4 (x = 0.0; 0.02; 0.05; 0.1; 0.15; 0.2; 0.25) were synthesized using the co-precipitation method. X-ray diffraction patterns confirmed the formation of pure, well-crystallized manganese ferrite with a cubic spinel structure. The crystallites size increases sharply for the minimum degrees of substitution, with a subsequent tendency to decrease with the growth of manganese ions content. The catalytic properties of Fe3-xMnxO4 were investigated for the degradation of oxytetracycline (ОТС) and inactivate E. coli. There is a correlation between particle size and catalytic activity. The Fe2.95Mn0.05O4 sample exhibited the highest catalytic activity in the destruction of OTC. The effect of electromagnetic heating (EMH) on the catalytic properties of iron oxides were investigated. The Fe2.9Mn0.1O4 sample with electromagnetic heating achieved 100 % efficiency in decomposing 5 mg/L of OTC. Fe3-xMnxO4 samples reduce the number of Gram-negative bacteria E. coli at concentrations of 104 and 106 CFU/mL. Electromagnetic heating experiments demonstrated high performance, achieving inactivation of 6 logs of E. coli in the presence of Fe2.98Mn0.02O4 and Fe2.95Mn0.05O4 catalysts within 135 minutes. Studies on ecotoxicity have shown that Daphnia magna is a sensitive bioindicator of residual H2O2 concentration. An increase in the Mn2+ content in the synthesized catalysts resulted in a decrease in the toxicity of purified water. The study suggests that Mn-substituted magnetite catalysts are effective materials for catalytic decomposition of OTC and inactivation of E. coli bacteria.
Inclusión de la formación de identidad y orientación sexual diversa en los Programas de Aprendizaje Socioemocional de Educación Secundaria
Authors: Ramos-Monsivais Cynthia Lizeth
Published: December 2023

Introduction. Education is a process of comprehensive training of individuals. It requires permanent updating to meet the demands of today’s society. It is also a means to build inclusive societies, strengthen, and promote well-being and social development. Objective. This essay aims to reflect on diverse sexual orientation as a social and cultural difference that impacts people’s mental health and well-being due to the lack of personal acceptance and social rejection. Development. Education can contribute to create inclusive communities and promote mental health. From the formative process of secondary education, the development of socio-emotional skills and character strengths can promote the mental health of students. Conclusion. As a result of the review and theoretical discussion, this essay proposes the inclusion of self-acceptance as an emotional intelligence competence. In addition, socio-emotional learning during secondary education can help develop this competence via orientation, workshops, and social support groups for students and their families.
Comprensión lectora autorregulada apoyada en tecnología en estudiantes de Educación Básica
Authors: Benavides Nelly , Zambrano-Ramírez Jimmy
Published: December 2023

Introduction. Self-regulated learning enables the effective improvement of self-assessment skills and task-selection abilities. However, it is unknown whether technology-supported self-regulation enhances performance in reading comprehension. Objective. This research aimed to explore the effectiveness of online self-regulated learning, based on problem-solving tasks, using a selection algorithm applied to reading comprehension. Method. The research was an online experimental study conducted with 76 students. They were randomly distributed into two groups: one received training with modeled examples on how to select reading tasks based on the performance and mental effort of previous tasks (i.e., experimental); the other selected tasks based on their preference (i.e., control). Results. The ANOVA analysis of the task selection phase data revealed that the experimental group did not achieve a high level of accuracy in task selection, and their performance was low. However, in the subsequent testing phase, the experimental group achieved a higher performance level than the control group. Discussion. It is concluded that self-regulated reading comprehension in a technological environment can improve comprehension test results when decision-making is guided by previous performance and cognitive load. The study concludes with recommendations for future research and educational practice.
Estudiantes que se educan en escuelas de hospital. Una mirada desde la filosofía, economía y tecnología
Authors: Castro-Ibáñez Carolina
Published: December 2023

Introduction. Hospital schools are an educational environment characterized by the high heterogeneity of their students, encompassing different ages, illnesses, and previous educational repertoires. Pedagogical practices within these schools manifest through dialectical and negotiation processes, occurring in relative times and spaces. Purpose. This study aims to analyze certain tensions that occur in the educational process of students attending hospital schools. Three key factors of the process are part of this analysis. Discussion. Philosophical, economic, and technological aspects intertwine, shaping the current educational landscape within hospital schools. From a philosophical perspective, time and space in hospital schools are presented as dimensions that facilitate the introduction of non-conventional educational approaches, challenging the traditional one. On the economic side, the problematic issue of financing these schools arises due to their particular implementation. Finally, technology emerges as a crucial factor in ensuring the continuity of the educational process for children and young people affected by illness. Conclusion. The three examined factors illustrate how the modifications developed in the context of hospital schools could provide valuable guidance to the mainstream education system. The outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted the imperative need for adaptable and effective mechanisms capable of sustaining the continuity of educational processes for all students. We are invited to learn from out-of-the-ordinary approaches to enrich and strengthen our education system as a whole.
Motivación y autoeficacia en estudiantado adolescente: Una revisión sistemática
Authors: Otondo-Briceño Maite , Medina-Hicks Nicol Alejandra
Published: December 2023

Objective. This research aims to investigate whether academic motivation is linked to academic self-efficacy for promotion in adolescent students in secondary and higher education. The significance of exploring the link between these factors and the degree of influence between them arises from their importance in the academic success of students and the existing gaps in the educational context regarding the intervention of these variables as a whole. Method. A systematic literature review was conducted, analyzing articles indexed in databases such as Web of Science (WOS) and Scopus, published between 2010 and 2020. A protocol was employed to organize the information extracted from articles, focusing on five relevant aspects: source, country, sample, type of study and objective of the study. Results. The results of this research confirm a significant relationship between both variables in adolescent students. Conclusion. Despite the existence of this significant relationship, academic motivation is not considered to be a major factor influencing academic self-efficacy. On the contrary, it is the latter that plays a fundamental role in the development of student motivation. Disseminating the knowledge provided by this study within the scientific and educational community is deemed essential to deepen the research in this domain.

Osmanlı Devleti, altı yüzyılı aşkın bir süre zarfında her alanda sayısız başarılarıyla tarihin mümtaz sayfalarında yerini almış büyük bir devlettir. Bir devletin sağlıklı ve uzun yaşamasına, elde ettiği başarılara sebep olan ana âmiller ise, yetiştirdiği birbirinden değerli âlim, şâir, mühendis, mimar, bürokrat, asker, devlet ricâli gibi yapı taşlarıdır. Padişahlarından, birkaç dili konuşan ve o dillerde şiirler yazan şâirler, musikişinaslar, hattatlar ve ressamlar bulunan Osmanlı Devleti, söz konusu alanlarda etkili ve vasıflı sayısız insan yetiştirmiştir. Baştan ayağa üstün vasıflarla donanmış böyle bir devlette üst düzey bürokrat olarak vazife yapabilmek ise donanımlı olmayı gerekli kılmaktadır. Reşid Âkif Paşa, Osmanlı Devleti’nin üst düzey bürokratlarından biridir. O, Osmanlı Devleti’nin idâre ve irâdesinin sarsıldığı son döneminde, 1902-1908 yılları arasında, Sivas Valiliği görevinde bulunmuş ve devletin temsil gücünü en iyi şekilde yerine getirerek vazifesini başarıyla tamamlamıştır. Reşid Âkif Paşa, bu görevinin dışında şiir ve edebiyatla olan meşguliyeti ve aruz vezninde yazdığı şiirleri ile de temayüz etmiştir. Yazdığı şiirleri küçük bir divançe oluşturacak nitelikte olmasına rağmen, Vefâ yangınında evinin yanması sonucu şiirleri de kaybolmuştur. Onun günümüze ulaşan ve bilinen nazımları yedi

şiirden ibarettir. Reşid Âkif Paşa’nın, İbnülemin Mahmut Kemal İnal’a gönderdiği mektup ve şiirleri yanında, Elmalılı Muhammed Hamdi Yazır’a da şiirler gönderdiği yaptığımız araştırma ve incelemeler sonucu tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca, Ahmed Remzi Akyürek’in yazmalarında da Reşid Âkif Paşa’ya âit gazeller ve gazellerine yapılmış nazîre, tahmîs ve taştîr tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmamızın konusu, Reşid Âkif Paşa’nın, tespit edilen ve ilk

defa yayınlanacak olan sekiz adet gazeli ve gazellerine yapılmış nazîre, tahmîs ve taştîr üzerinedir. Bu çalışmamızda söz konusu şiirler transkripsiyon harfleriyle yazılıp incelenecek ve Türk edebiyatı tarihine önemli olduğuna inandığımız şiirler kazandırılacaktır.

Vakf-ibtidâ bilgisi, Kur’an-ı Kerim’i hem dil hem de mana boyutu itibariyle inceleme ayrıcalığına sahiptir. Dil ve anlam boyutlu oluşu vakf-ibtidâ eserlerinde lügavi açıklamaların ve bu açıklamalar doğrultusunda serdedilen mana takdirlerinin belli bir yekûn teşkil etmesini sağlamıştır. Lügavi inceleme ise terkib düzeyinde, bir terkibi oluşturan unsurları gerek cümle kurgusu gerekse edebi yön itibariyle ele almayı ifade eder. Belagat çalışmaları kapsamında müstakil olarak incelemeye tabi tutulan bu edebi yön, İslam düşünce geleneğinin muhtelif başlıklarında şu veya bu düzeyde yer ihraz etmiş ve böylece düşüncenin gelişimine de katkı sunmuştur. İşte bu çalışmada dilin edebi yönü kapsamında bahis konusu edilen ve ilerleyen süreçte dil-belagat âlimleri tarafından “isti’nâf-ı beyânî” olarak kavramlaştırılan edebi unsur üzerinden vakf-ibtidâ sahasında edebi boyutun hangi düzeyde varlığa sahip olduğunu incelemeye çalışacağız, yanı sıra da vakf-ibtidâ âlimleri içinde incelemelerini edebi bir zemine taşıma imkânı bulan âlimlerin kim veya kimler olduğunu tespit etmeye gayret edeceğiz. Böyle olduğu içindir ki yazıda öncelikle “isti’nâf-ı beyânî” terkibi sözlük ve terim anlamları düzeyinde incelenecek, akabinde İslam düşünce geleneğinde ve özellikle de dil, belağat ve tefsir sahasında isti’nâf-ı beyânî’nin bahis konusu edilme keyfiyetine temas edilecek, en sonunda da vakf-ibtidâ âlimlerinin açıklamalarına yansıyan yönünün keşfine çalışılacaktır.

Healthcare Provision of Sexual and Gender Minorities in Slovenia
Authors: Ramšak Mojca
Published: December 2023

The article provides an overview of the legal regulation of the right to health and medical procedures in Slovenia for people of diverse sexual orientations, gender identities/expressions, or sex characteristics. It also presents hospital practices and the perceived relationship between patients and medical staff. Three objectives are pursued: to provide a comprehensive overview of Slovenian gender and sexual orientation legislation and hospital policies; to investigate how legal norms and hospital policies are implemented in clinical practice; and to highlight the ethical challenges perceived by healthcare workers and patients as a result of social diversity. Several types of data were reviewed: relevant legislation, internal documents from Slovenian general hospitals, documents from the Advocate of the Principles of Equality and the Human Rights Ombudsman, medical literature, and literature from non-governmental organizations. The reviewed and analyzed data indicate that some hospital staff lack the necessary skills to work with vulnerable groups, despite the fact that discrimination is prohibited by law and that cultural competency training is occasionallyprovided to healthcare professionals.

An efficient realization algorithm of the LOD scheme is proposed.
Recombinant Tissue Plasminogen Activator: The New Concept for Dissolving Septae in Loculated Peri-pancreatic Fluid Collection prior to Endoscopic Drainage. A Case Report
Authors: Vlăduț Cătălina , Stan-Ilie Mădălina , Săftoiu Adrian , Țuțuian Radu , Constantinescu Gabriel
Published: December 2023

Peri-pancreatic fluid collections are late complications of acute pancreatitis. Loculated peri-pancreatic fluid collections, even rare, remain the „black sheep” in terms of drainage, due to difficulty to puncture all compartments, thus prohibiting proper drainage of all compartments. Recombined tissue plasminogen activator (r-tPA) has been advocated as treatment of the loculated collections, due to its ability to dissolve the fibrinous strands and thus facilitate proper drainage. We report the case of a 58 years-old male presenting with a painful loculated peri-pancreatic fluid collection secondary to acute pancreatitis. We performed Alteplase injection, followed by successful endosonographic drainage with lumen apposing metal stent of the collection after 48 hours. Our observation suggests that r-tPA could be a new strategy for loculated collections management, ensuring better drainage and limiting the indication for surgical treatment.

Published: December 2023

Aims: To assess the value of using integrated parametric ultrasound software for contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) of liver tumors.

Methods: 107 patients with liver tumors were studied. CEUS were performed to detect focal lesions. Parametric images were based on continuous CINE LOOPs, from the early-arterial phase (15 s) to the portal-venous phase (1 min) generated by perfusion software. The evaluations of the parametric images and their dignity for liver lesions were performed independently by an experienced and a less-experienced investigator. Computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging scans or histological analysis were used as references.

Results: High parametric image quality were obtained in all patients. Among the patients, 44% lesions were benign, 56% were malignant. The experienced investigator correctly classified 46 of 47 (98%) as benign, and 60 of 60 (100%) as malignant tumors based on the parametric images. The less-experienced investigator correctly classified 39 of 47 (83%) as benign, and 49 of 60 (82%) malignant tumors, acheaving a high statistical accuracy of 98% with this type of diagnostic.

Conclusion: Parametric imaging for grading the malignant degree of tumor may be a good complement to existing ultrasound techniques and was particularly helpful for improving the assessments of the less-experienced examiner.

Background and Aims: Amyloidosis is a group of systemic disorders caused by extracellular deposition of misfolded serum proteins. Gastrointestinal (GI) involvement is associated with a higher risk of GI bleeding, especially if mucosal lesions are present. Our study aims to evaluate the frequency of GI manifestations in patients with amyloidosis, to clinically characterize these patients and to describe the endoscopic and histopathologic findings in GI amyloidosis.

Methods: A retrospective, single-center study of all patients admitted with amyloidosis and GI manifestations was conducted at a German University Hospital between July 2003 and June 2023. Clinical, endoscopic, and histopathological data was retrieved from medical records.

Results: Between July 2003 and June 2023, 63 patients with different types of amyloidosis were included into the study. Twenty-three (36,5%) were diagnosed with GI involvement of amyloidosis (60.9% male, median age 62 ± 18.28 years). The distribution of the types of amyloidosis were amyloid light chain (AL) at 52.5%, transthyretin (ATTR) at 21.7%, amyloid A (AA) at 13.0%, and unknown at 18%. Initial GI symptoms were present in 78.3% of the patients and included mainly diarrhea (34.8%), and abdominal pain (30.4%) Affected GI organs were primarily the colon (60,8%) and the stomach (39.1%). Endoscopic findings were ulcerations (47.8%), mucosal inflammation (43.5%), polyps (26.1%), erosions (13.0%), vascular malformation, polypoid protrusion, submucosal hematoma, erythema, metaplasia, and diverticulum. Histopathological findings included vascular wall thickening, (peri-)vascular and interstitial amyloid deposition. Gastrointestinal bleeding occurred in 39.1% of the patients. The mortality rate 5 years after diagnosis was 47.8%.

Conclusions: Gastrointestinal amyloidosis can present with multiple symptoms and endoscopic findings, rendering diagnosis a challenge. Of clinical relevance, GI bleeding was a frequent event in our patient cohort. Therefore, clinicians must be aware of GI bleeding as a manifestation of amyloidosis and definite diagnosis should be achieved based on biopsy results.

Clear cell carcinoma is structures of Mullerian origin, they are associated with mutations in TP53 as they are a high-grade neoplasm, however there is no immunophenotypic pattern that guides us if the origin is from the ovary, uterus, endocervix or endometrium. A 71-year-old female patient who underwent surgery for a right parauterine tumor with a pathological report that corresponded to a clear cell tumor. Subsequently, a staging and cytoreductive laparotomy was performed, performing abdominal cavity lavage, salpingo-oophorectomy of the remaining ovary (left), and pelvic and paraortic lymphadenectomy. , omentectomy and biopsies of the parietal peritoneum, all the material was negative for metastatic disease, 18 months later there was a relapse in the vaginal vault, with the presence of an ovoid tumor measuring 10 cm in diameter, treated with colpectomy, with a report of clear cell carcinoma with CK7+ / Napsin A+ / p53+ protein immunophenotype, with a satisfactory disease-free postoperative period.

Published: December 2023

The problem of increasing the effectiveness of the study of integral models of dynamic systems is considered. A parallel algorithm for solving a system of Volterra linear integral equations of the second kind based on the quadrature method of numerical integration is proposed. The algo-rithm was implemented in the MATLAB computer mathematics system in the form of an m-function. The program uses the MATLAB Distributed Computing Toolbox infrastructure to manage workflows and distribute computations between them on multi-core processors. Com-putational experiments were conducted on a model example using the Symbolic Math Toolbox package for symbolic calculations and a comparison of the execution of parallel calculations with the execution time of the implementation of a sequential algorithm. The results showed a significant increase in the speed of research of integral models on multi-core processors when using the proposed algorithm and its computer implementation.

Вступ. Нагальною проблемою селекції пшениці є питання поліпшення якості зерна. Одним із напрямків генетичного поліпшення пшениці є перенесення генів від диких родичів. Особливий інтерес у цьому напрямку представляє ген Gpc-B1.Проблематика. Використання сучасних систем ДНК-маркерів для визначення гена Gpc-B1 від Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccoides дасть можливість за короткий термін створити нові перспективні сорти-інновації з підвищеним вмістом протеїну у поєднанні з високими господарсько-цінними ознаками.Мета. Визначити ефективність дії гена Gpc-B1 в генетичному оточенні українського сорту ‘Куяльник’ на вміст протеїну в зерні, урожайність та хлібопекарські характеристики.Матеріали і методи. Виявлення гена Gpc-B1 проводили методом мультиплексної полімеразної ланцюгової реакції (ПЛР). Джерело гена Gpc-B1 лінія Glu-Pro було схрещено із сортом Куяльник (Gpc-B1 × Куяльник). Вміст протеїну в зерні вимірювали методом інфрачервоної спектрометрії (NIR); визначення індексу седиментації за методом SDS30 здійснювали на автоматичному приладі.Результати. Розроблено домінантну та кодомінантну молекулярно-генетичні системи ДНК-маркерів для виявлення гена Gpc-B1 від T. turgidum ssp. dicoccoides у лініях пшениці м’якої озимої. Аналіз зерна рослин поколінь F5—F9 показав, що ген Gpc-B1 зумовлює підвищення вмісту протеїну на 3 % порівняно з вихідним сортом ‘Куяльник’. Проаналізовано врожайність ліній носіїв гена Gpc-B1 e польових умовах.Висновки. Показано, що вплив гена Gpc-B1 на урожай зерна практично відсутній на тлі генетичного оточеннярайонованого українського сорту ‘Куяльник’. Досліджено вплив цього гена на хлібопекарські характеристики пшениці м’якої. Лінії з геном Gpc-B1 і без нього мали майже однаковий показник седиментації.

GADAMER’S HERMENEUTICAL THOUGHT AND HABERMAS’S CRITIQUE
Authors: Jena Yeremias
Published: December 2023

As long as humans always try to understand the deepest meaning of a text, symbol, or event, hermeneutics is a common activity. However, the gap between the creation of texts, symbols or events has created its own problems that must be solved. The problem is, should an attempt at interpretation of a text, symbol or event achieve its objective status in the sense intended by the author or writer, or not? Hermeneutic thinkers differ in solving this problem. Unlike Friedrich Schleiermacher and Wilhelm Dilthey who emphasized the importance of revealing the author’s original intent, Hans-Georg Gadamer emphasized the importance of the subjective dimension of the interpreter. In Gadamer’s thought, prejudice and cultural influences in interpreting a text, symbol or phenomenon are also considered as one of the horizons. Dialectic and horizon fusion in itself will be an internal mechanism to reduce the dominance of prejudice or subjectivity that cannot be accounted for. By paying close attention to Jurgen Habermas’s note that hermeneutics overemphasize the aspects of prejudice and cultural influences will only provide opportunities for certain communication distortions and cultural hegemony, Gadamer’s contribution can still be maintained as a human hermeneutical activity.
MAP OF STUDY OF THE QURAN IN THE POSTGRADUATE PROGRAM OF UIN JAKARTA AND UIN YOGYAKARTA PERIOD OF 2005-2012

Published: December 2023

This article is the result of a study that discusses the map of the study of Quran, which is represented by dissertations written by the Postgraduate programs of UIN Syarif Hidayatullah Jakarta and UIN Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta for the period of 2005-2012. This article shows the disproportionate phenomenon between the number of dissertations written in the study of Quran and the quality of the results. It is proven from the slow development of the study of Quran. Qualitatively, there has been no significant development, both in the title and content of the dissertation. It is found that many titles and objects of study are similar between one UIN (State Islamic University) and another UIN or IAIN (State Islamic College). The majority of dissertations still discuss Islamic and humanitarian issues in general, but do not relate them to Indonesian problems. This article uses discourse content analysis.

Published: December 2023

This study discusses how the Ḥadīth related to the pandemic and how the practice of a ḥadīth boarding school - Darus-Sunnah in South Tangerang, Banten, Indonesia- deal with this issue using a qualitative, and descriptive-analytical method with an anthropological-phenomenological paradigm, this research identifies and constructs their discussion on pandemic and their effort to deal with it. The study finds that Darus-Sunnah bases their discussion about the Covid-19 outbreak on Ḥadīth sources. It also finds that understanding the Prophet’s traditions can thoroughly help to prevent the spread of Covid-19 as the Ḥadīth sources suggest to avoid the possibility for the viruses to transmit to others, and recommend to collaborate between religious, government, and health care agents in combatting the pandemic.
BAḤR AL-MADHĪ AND THE ESTABLISHMENT MOMENTUM OF ḤADĪTH STUDIES IN NUSANTARA IN THE 20TH CENTURY
Authors: Firdausy Hilmy , Fatkhi Rifqi Muhammad , Thohari Fuad
Published: December 2023

This paper intends to strengthen the view that Islam vernacularizing happened in the sharḥ of ḥadīth that provided new distinctions in the meaning of the Prophet’s Ḥadīths. Baḥr al-Madhī Syarah Bagi Mukhtaṣar Saḥīḥ al-Tirmidhī written by Muhammad Idris al-Marbawi (1896-1989) provided quite copious data on this matter. Instead of obscuring the Prophet’s ḥadīths, the subjectivity, and locality of al-Marbawi as a Nusantara Muslim scholar enriches the contextualization of the meaning of ḥadīth so that the non-Arab communities can understand the ḥadīths well. The abundant textual data in Baḥr al-Madhī also confirmed that the study of Nusantara ḥadīths had been established in the 19th and 20th centuries AD. This paper strengthened Oman Fathurrahman’s thesis which showed that the roots of the Nusantara ḥadīths writing tradition have existed since the 17th century. On the other hand, this paper refuted several academics’ opinions such as Brown (1966) and Azra (1997) who said that the study of ḥadīths was stagnant.
POLYGAMY SEMINARS: BUILDING MASCULINITY VIA LIBIDINAL ECONOMY
Authors: Haganta Karunia , Arrasy Firas , Masruroh Siamrotul Ayu
Published: December 2023

This paper discusses polygamy seminars with three critical perspectives: religious commodification, hegemonic masculinity, and libidinal economics. In terms of religious commodification, polygamy seminars as a religious activity held in many places in Indonesia with quite expensive costs are economically beneficial. Regarding Raewyn W. Connell’s masculinity theory, polygamy seminars can be read as activities closely related to masculinity and femininity. The libidinal economic perspective of Jean Francois Lyotard helps see the relationship between religious commodification, desire, and capital in polygamy seminars. This article is an analytical descriptive study with quite extensive empirical data.
RELIGION AND THE POLITICS OF NATIONALIST THOUGHT: COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF HINDU NATIONALISM IN INDIA AND MUSLIM NATIONALISM IN INDONESIA
Authors: Munhanif Ali , Yasin Yuli
Published: December 2023

The rise of religious nationalism in recent decades in developing countries has sparked attention among scholars. This article seeks to explore the political and cultural dynamics of the contemporary resurgence of religious nationalism, many of them reflected in Hindu nationalist in India and Muslim nationalist in Indonesia. We address the following question: What are the likely factors for religious-nationalist movements coming to the center stage of nation-state politics? Using the historical-institutional approach to religious politics, we argue that the forces that have driven the resurgence of religious nationalist were the interaction between the institutional design of the nation-state and the considerable opportunities for change – in a certain period of political crisis. Embedded in the issues of the institutional challenge is another series of questions that this article will address. There are variations in how and when religious-nationalist politics emerged. Why, for example, did the rise of religious politics occur in such varying ways, for instance, through a political party in India and civil society movements in Indonesia? Why did regimes or governments that promoted secular ideologies in India and Indonesia lose their hegemonic position? The answers to these questions are also largely historical-institutional. By focusing on how political institutions shape political dynamics, we suggest that institutions shape social and political outcomes, they necessarily affect people’s behavior as reflected in the politics of religious nationalism.
