Выполнен цикл экспериментальных исследований, а именно, проведены измерения и выполнен анализ полевых зависимостей статической магнитной восприимчивости в образцах тонких пленок монокристаллического SiC, выращенных на поверхностях (100), (110) и (111) монокристаллического Si методом согласованного замещения атомов за счет химической реакции Si с газом CO. В результате исследований в структурах SiC, выращенных на Si (110) и Si (111), обнаружено возникновение в слабых магнитных полях двух квантовых эффектов при комнатной температуре. Этими эффектами являются, во-первых, образование гистерезиса статической магнитной восприимчивости, а во-вторых, возникновение осцилляций Ааронова--Бома в полевых зависимостях статической магнитной восприимчивости. Первый эффект связывается нами с эффектом Мейснера--Оксенфельда, а второй --- с присутствием в данных структурах под слоем SiC микродефектов в виде нанотрубок и микропор, формирующихся в процессе синтеза структур. В структурах SiC, выращенных на Si (100), эти эффекты обнаружены не были, что связывается нами с иным механизмом образования SiC на поверхности (100) Si. Ключевые слова: карбид кремния на кремнии, дилатационные диполи, магнитная восприимчивость, диамагнетизм, эффект Ааронова--Бома.

Published: November 2020

Сравниваются измеренные в реальном времени огибающие мощной пикосекундной оптической накачки и собственного стимулированного пикосекундного излучения тонкого слоя GaAs. Объяснение превышения длительности излучения над длительностью накачки базируется на отрицательной обратной связи между интенсивностью излучения и разогревом носителей этим излучением. Главным параметром указанного превышения длительности является характерное время охлаждения носителей заряда, замедляемое из-за разогрева носителей излучением. Отмечается влияние этого времени и на перенормировку запрещенной зоны из-за кулоновского взаимодействия носителей. Та часть представления о пикосекундной динамике интенсивного стимулированного излучения GaAs, которая получена к настоящему моменту в наших с соавторами работах, дана в Заключении. Ключевые слова: стимулированное пикосекундное излучение, длительность пикосекундного излучения, разогрев носителей заряда излучением, время охлаждения носителей заряда, энергетический транспорт носителей заряда, перенормировка запрещенной зоны, пикосекундная динамика излучения.

Published: November 2020

При мощной пикосекундной оптической накачке тонкого слоя GaAs в нем образуется интенсивное пикосекундное стимулированное излучение. Спектр излучения представляет собой световой континуум. На базе результатов предыдущих экспериментальных работ сделано следующее. Получены оценки: (а) длин усиления спектральных компонент излучения, т. е. различающихся между собой расстояний, на протяжении которых в активной среде, созданной накачкой, усиливаются различные компоненты излучения; (б) зависимости характерного времени релаксации компонент излучения от их длин усиления. Показано, что спектр произведения длины усиления на коэффициент усиления связывает линейно спектры спонтанного и стимулированного излучений GaAs. Эта связь установлена при насыщении усиления, о котором свидетельствует провал в спектре усиления, "выжженный" интенсивным излучением. Ключевые слова: стимулированное пикосекундное излучение, спектральные компоненты излучения, длина усиления, характерное время релаксации, насыщение усиления, связь стимулированного и спонтанного излучений, арсенид галлия.
Extrusion of screws with sensor functionality
Authors: Graf Alexander , Guk Anna , Birnbaum Peter , Kräusel Verena , Afonin Andrey , Landgrebe Dirk , Hirsch Andreas
Published: November 2020

The use of components with embedded sensors is one of the most promising trends in civil engineering, plant construction and mechanical engineering. These components make it possible to both monitor the design state in real time and to recognize failures in parts and components early on. However, due to high product costs, their wider distribution is limited. Optimization of the component manufacturing technology can contribute to reducing the production costs.Fasteners, such as screws and rivets, consisting of a polypropylene composite core filled with piezoceramic powder represent a potential approach. In the event of a sudden impact, this compound generates an electric pulse, and through machine learning the cause of the failure can be filtered out from the screw’s normal state.Simultaneous forming of aluminum and plastics opens up new opportunities to produce the abovementioned screws at a reasonable price. The authors’ aim was to demonstrate feasibility through initial experiments and the generation of a simulation model.
Assessment of Psychological Distress in Adults With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Through Technologies: Literature Review
Authors: Bassi Giulia , Gabrielli Silvia , Donisi Valeria , Carbone Sara , Forti Stefano , Salcuni Silvia
Published: November 2020

Background

The use of technological devices can support the self-management of individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), particularly in addressing psychological distress. However, there is poor consistency in the literature regarding the use of psychological instruments for the web-based screening of patients’ psychological distress and subsequent monitoring of their psychological condition during digital interventions.

Objective

This study aims to review previous literature on the types of psychological instruments delivered in digital interventions for assessing depression, anxiety, and stress in patients with T2DM.

Methods

The literature review was conducted using the PsycINFO, CINAHL and PubMed databases, in which the following terms were considered: diabetes mellitus, measure, assessment, self-care, self-management, depression, anxiety, stress, technology, eHealth, mobile health, mobile phone, device, and smartphone.

Results

In most studies, psychological assessments were administered on paper. A few studies deployed self-reporting techniques employing automated telephonic assessment, a call system for screening and monitoring patients’ conditions and preferences, or through telephone interviews via interactive voice response calls, a self-management support program leveraging tailored messages and structured emails. Other studies used simple telephone interviews and included the use of apps for tablets and smartphones to assess the psychological well-being of patients. Finally, some studies deployed mood rating scales delivered through tailored text message–based support systems.

Conclusions

The deployment of appropriate psychological tools in digital interventions allows researchers and clinicians to make the screening of anxiety, stress, and depression symptoms faster and easier in patients with T2DM. Data from this literature review suggest that mobile health solutions may be preferred tools to use in such digital interventions.
A Virtual Reality Exergame to Engage Adolescents in Physical Activity: Mixed Methods Study Describing the Formative Intervention Development Process
Authors: Farič Nuša , Smith Lee , Hon Adrian , Potts Henry W W , Newby Katie , Steptoe Andrew , Fisher Abi
Published: November 2020

Background

Early adolescence (13-17 years) is a critical developmental stage for physical activity promotion. Virtual reality (VR) exergaming is a promising intervention strategy to engage adolescents in physical activity.

Objective

The vEngage project aims to develop a physical activity intervention for adolescents using VR exergaming. Here, we describe the formative intervention development work and process of academic-industry collaboration.

Methods

The formative development was guided by the Medical Research Council framework and included recruiting an adolescent user group to provide iterative feedback, a literature review, a quantitative survey of adolescents, qualitative interviews with adolescents and parents, inductive thematic analysis of public reviews of VR exergames, a quantitative survey and qualitative interviews with users of the augmented reality running app Zombies, Run!, and building and testing a prototype with our adolescent user group.

Results

VR exergaming was appealing to adolescents and acceptable to parents. We identified behavior change techniques that users would engage with and features that should be incorporated into a VR exergame, including realistic body movements, accurate graphics, stepped levels of gameplay difficulty, new challenges, in-game rewards, multiplayer options, and the potential to link with real-world aspects such as physical activity trackers. We also identified some potential barriers to use, such as cost, perceived discomfort of VR headsets, and motion sickness concerns. A prototype game was developed and user-tested with generally positive feedback.

Conclusions

This is the first attempt to develop a VR exergame designed to engage adolescents in physical activity that has been developed within a public health intervention development framework. Our formative work suggests that this is a very promising avenue. The benefit of the design process was the collaborative parallel work between academics and game designers and the involvement of the target population in the game (intervention) design from the outset. Developing the game within an intervention framework allowed us to consider factors, such as parental support, that would be important for future implementation. This study also serves as a call to action for potential collaborators who may wish to join this endeavor for future phases and an example of how academic-industry collaboration can be successful and beneficial.
Rhythmic Haptic Cueing for Gait Rehabilitation of People With Hemiparesis: Quantitative Gait Study
Authors: Georgiou Theodoros , Holland Simon , van der Linden Janet
Published: November 2020

Background

Rhythm, brain, and body are closely linked. Humans can synchronize their movement to auditory rhythms in ways that can improve the regularity of movement while reducing perceived effort. However, the ability to perform rhythmic movement may be disrupted by various neurological conditions. Many such conditions impair mechanisms that control movement, such as gait, but typically without rhythmic perception being affected. This paper focuses on hemiparetic stroke, a neurological condition that affects one side of the body. Hemiparetic stroke can cause severe asymmetries in gait, leading to numerous physical problems ranging from muscle degeneration to bone fractures. Movement synchronization via entrainment to auditory metronomes is known to improve asymmetry and related gait problems; this paper presents the first systematic study of entrainment for gait rehabilitation via the haptic modality.

Objective

This paper explores the gait rehabilitation of people with hemiparesis following a stroke or brain injury, by a process of haptic entrainment to rhythmic cues. Various objective measures, such as stride length and stride time, are considered.

Methods

This study is a quantitative gait study combining temporal and spatial data on haptically cued participants with hemiparetic stroke and brain injury. We designed wearable devices to deliver the haptic rhythm, called Haptic Bracelets, which were placed on the leg near the knee. Spatial data were recorded using a Qualisys optical motion capturing system, consisting of 8 optoelectronic cameras, and 20 markers placed on anatomical lower limb landmarks and 4 additional tracking clusters placed on the right and left shank and thigh. Gait characteristics were measured before, during, and after cueing.

Results

All 11 successfully screened participants were able to synchronize their steps to a haptically presented rhythm. Specifically, 6 participants demonstrated immediate improvements regarding their temporal gait characteristics, and 3 of the 6 improved their gait in terms of spatial characteristics.

Conclusions

Considering the great variability between survivors of stroke and brain injury and the limited number of available participants in our study, there is no claim of statistical evidence that supports a formal experimental result of improved gait. However, viewing this empirical gait investigation as a set of 11 case studies, more modest empirical claims can be made. All participants were able to synchronize their steps to a haptically presented rhythm. For a substantial proportion of participants, an immediate (though not necessarily lasting) improvement of temporal gait characteristics was found during cueing. Some improvements over baseline occurred immediately after, rather than during, haptic cueing. Design issues and trade-offs are identified, and interactions between perception, sensory deficit, attention, memory, cognitive load, and haptic entrainment are noted.
Ricordi d’infanzia di Giosuè Carducci Tra prosa e poesia, tra realtà e mito
Authors: Pedroni Matteo M.
Published: November 2020

Qua e là, nell’imponente opera letteraria e saggistica, Carducci ci parla della sua infanzia tra Versilia e Maremma toscana, attribuendo a brevi ricordi, a volte ricorrenti, funzioni che vanno ben al di là della mera cronaca autobiografica. Essi concorrono infatti alla costruzione del personaggio pubblico, del poeta come dell’intellettuale, e alla creazione di un mito identitario maremmano. Il presente articolo analizza alcuni di questi ricordi d’infanzia, iniziando da quelli in prosa e passando poi a quelli in versi.
Leo Zanier, "Pardutt" in morte di Flora
Authors: Besomi Ottavio
Published: November 2020

Esame del corpus di 15 componimenti in versi, incorniciati da quattro prose, di Leo Zanier in morte della sua donna, tutti datati tra agosto e dicembre del 2014. Si accampa nel libretto (uscito a stampa nel 2015) la compresenza di vita e di morte in un’atmosfera di tristezza contenuta e persino gioiosa. La memoria collega e salda situazioni cronologicamente distanti e ambienti lontani, riunendoli attorno alla presenza dell’Assente. Elementi lessicali, tematici, anche grafici (importante la funzione dei punti di sospensione), richiami a distanza, ricorrenze di immagini, impostazioni sintattiche iterate, tutto concorre a fondere i testi in un organismo coerente.

Tra gli elementi tuttora da indagare: lo scavo fi lologico anche allargato ai materiali autografi. La resa straordinaria del parlato e l’incrocio crescente romagnolo-lingua italiana, ricorrendo pure alle preziose indicazioni della linguistica pragmatica. I rapporti con la più inquieta cultura e visione novecentesca, intrecciati con il legame perseguito dal poeta con la tradizione maggiore della poesia in dialetto (Porta, Belli, Guerrini).
La poésie ludique et les règles de la transgression
Authors: Léchot Timothée
Published: November 2020

Aux xviie et xviiie siècles, l’énigme versifi ée profi te d’un vif engouement auprès des mondains, puis dans des journaux tels que le Mercure galant, le Mercure de France et le Journal helvétique. Surdéterminée par des règles, aussi bien morales qu’esthétiques, la poésie ludique constitue aussi un lieu privilégié de transgression. Nous proposons d’évaluer la manière dont l’énigme joue avec ses propres codes pour enrichir notre compréhension d’un phénomène à la fois littéraire et social.
Paratextos, ilustración y autoridad en los "flores sanctorum" castellanos del siglo XVI
Authors: Baños Vallejo Fernando
Published: November 2020

Los paratextos de las sucesivas revisiones del flos sanctorum castellano muestran una intensifi cación de las estrategias de autoridad, que consisten principalmente en ensalzar la veracidad y la ortodoxia del relato y procurar el amparo de personas e instituciones poderosas. Al comparar los prefacios anteriores y posteriores a Trento, apreciamos un desarrollo notable y una evolución, que pasa de advertir la presencia de pasajes apócrifos a declarar su depuración; los hagiógrafos postridentinos también afi rman seguir el elenco ofi cial de santos, atenerse solo a lo que relatan autores graves, se someten por anticipado a la censura, y dedican sus volúmenes a poderosos. Complementariamente, las ilustraciones preliminares representan los cultos católicos básicos y los vínculos del libro con autoridades e instituciones.
Tracce floriane negli archivi svizzeri: documenti concernenti gli umanisti Michelangelo e John Florio conservati a Coira, Berna e Zurigo
Authors: Rossi Carla
Published: November 2020

Il contributo offerto dal lessicografo e traduttore John Florio e da suo padre Michelangelo alla cultura italiana in esilio nell’Inghilterra rinascimentale è stato particolarmente rilevante. Dopo un lungo peregrinare che lo portò dalle carceri di Tor di Nona sino a Londra, dove si trattenne per un tempo assai breve, parlando solo italiano e latino, poi a Strasburgo ed infine sui monti della Bregaglia, Michelangelo Florio si spense sicuramente a Soglio nel 1566, insieme alla propria moglie, lasciando tre figli in tenera età. Da «Soi», John partì, ancora adolescente, nuovamente alla volta dell’Inghilterra. Le indagini archivistiche condotte in primo luogo in Svizzera, ma anche in Italia, Francia, Germania e Inghilterra, hanno permesso di seguire le tracce dei due Florio, di cui si fornirà qui una breve panoramica.

Íntimos e históricos: los títulos de La otra sentimentalidad
Authors: García Miguel ´Angel
Published: November 2020

Contra la creencia en un sujeto expresivo atemporal, los poetas de La otra sentimentalidad partieron de la premisa de que el yo y la intimidad son una construcción histórica. A la vez, entendieron lo público y lo colectivo como correlato de lo privado y lo individual. De acuerdo con una práctica teórica marxista que subrayaba la radical historicidad de la literatura y la definía como producción ideológica, trataron de cuestionar en su práctica poética la norma literaria establecida. Este artículo procura contextualizar los títulos de sus libros y poemas.

¿Por qué el mundo hispánico?
Authors: Fine Ruth
Published: November 2020

En el presente trabajo nos preguntamos acerca de las motivaciones que impulsan a centenares y aun miles de investigadores en el mundo a abrazar con entusiasmo y dedicación el mundo hispánico. Intentamos ofrecer algunas respuestas que de modo alguno agotan el abanico de posibles razones para la elección del mundo hispánico como objeto de estudio e investigación. El hispanismo constituye un campo intelectual que destaca por su inmensa pluralidad, dada su diversidad cultural, racial, religiosa, lingüística e ideológica. Estimamos que el hispanismo constituye así un ejemplo paradigmático de lo que podría designarse como puente lingüístico e intelectual entre regiones y culturas cercanas-distantes, un diálogo humano polifónico, configurado por el cúmulo de historias y culturas que conforman el universo hispánico.

Characterization and Prediction of the Non-Bonded Molecular Interactions between Racemic Ibuprofen and α-Lactose Monohydrate Crystals Produced from Melt Granulation and Slow Evaporation Crystallization
Authors: Lukman Zulfahmi , Anuar Nornizar , Abu Bakar Noor Fitrah , Abdul Rahman Norazah
Published: November 2020

Granulation of racemic ibuprofen (±IBP) and α-lactose monohydrate (ALM) at a slightly lower (±IBP) melting point is an efficient method of binding the active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and excipient in a binderless condition. However, the co-crystals may be formed from recrystallization of ±IBP on ALM. The objective of this study is to evaluate the tendency of co-crystal formation of granules (3:7 w/w ratio of ±IBP:ALM) by melt granulation process. Second, investigate the recovery of crystals from polyethylene glycol (PEG) 300 solutions containing ±IBP-ALM mixtures. Characterizations of the samples were performed using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Powder X-Ray Diffraction (PXRD) system of the ±IBP-ALM granules produced from melt crystallization and harvested crystals from PEG 300 solution which is produced using slow evaporation crystallization. Crystal analysis of solution containing ±IBP-ALM mixtures revealed that the crystals formed were not co-crystals. Molecular interactions assessment through binding prediction between ±IBP and ALM terminating surfaces was conducted using molecular modelling technique. The result showed that the favorable binding sites of ±IBP molecules were on the surfaces of (0-20), (1-10), (001) and (011) ALM crystals. Successful binding prediction by the attachment energy method has proven that the co-crystal formation between these molecules is theoretically possible.
Hydrochemical Evolution in Ciliwung River – Java, Indonesia: Study of Sea Water Mixture and Mineral Dissolution
Authors: Pujiindiyati Evarista Ristin , Sidauruk Paston , Prayogi Tantowi Eko , Abdillah Faizal
Published: November 2020

The chemical characteristics of the Ciliwung River were analyzed to understand hydrochemical evolution. A fraction of sea water mixture and kinds of mineral controlling for chemicals were also determined. During three year investigations in 2015, 2016, and 2018, electrical conductivity increased with decreasing elevations. Two hydrochemical facies had been identified for the Ciliwung river water; those were Ca-Mg-HCO3 and Ca-Na-HCO3.  The river water mixing with seawater was recognized in the Mangga Dua site in which its water type had shifted to Na-Ca-HCO3-Cl. Based on Na-Cl contents, the fraction of sea water into the Ciliwung River reached 2% in the Mangga Dua site during the dry season and decreased to 0.7% during the rainy season in 2015. The much higher monthly rainfall during the dry season in 2016 and 2018 had washed out invading seawater from the Mangga Dua site; its fraction of sea water was less than 0.4%. Saturation indexes with respect to calcite, dolomite, and gypsum minerals showed an increasing trend related to the decreasing elevations. All water samples were undersaturated with respect to gypsum. Meanwhile, saturation indexes with respect to calcite and dolomite mostly indicated undersaturated, except in the Mangga Dua site that was saturated (during the rainy season in 2015 and dry season in 2018) and supersaturated during the dry season in 2015.
The Politics of Women’s Empowerment in Yemen
Authors: Al-Sakkaf Dr. Nadia
Published: November 2020

Despite the existence of women’s empowerment strategies since the late nineties and qualified women in decision-making positions in charge of implementing them, these strategies failed to significantly improve women’s conditions and the situation of Yemeni women in the Republic of Yemen remains dismal. This article attempts to explain this failure through a mixed-method approach, surveying and interviewing Yemeni women leaders who were involved as authority figures or people of influence between 2006 and 2014 in said strategies. Findings from this research have strong policy implications on future development and gender equality policies in the country placing the experiences of women as policy makers, activists, advocates at the center of the analysis.

Authors: Barker Colin M , Cork David P , McCullough Peter A , Mehta Hirsch S , Houten Joanna Van , Gunnarsson Candace , Mollenkopf Sarah , Verta Patrick
Published: November 2020

Aim:
This study evaluated how the presence of right-sided heart disease (RSHD), other valve disease (OVD) and heart failure (HF) impacts healthcare utilization in patients with tricuspid valve disease (tricuspid regurgitation [TR]).
Materials & methods:
Of the 33,686 patients with TR: 6618 (19.6%) had TR-only; 8952 (26.6%) had TR with HF; 12,367 (36.7%) had TR with OVD but no HF; and 5749 (17.1%) had TR with RSHD only.
Results:
The presence of RSHD, OVD or HF in patients with TR was independently associated with increased annualized hospitalizations, hospital days and costs relative to patients with TR alone.
Conclusion:
All three co-morbidities were associated with increased healthcare utilization, with HF showing the greatest impact across all measures.

Introdução: O gliossarcoma é raro em adultos (2-3%), incomum em crianças e presente geralmente em homens idosos. A sua histologia bifásica, sarcomatosa e gliomatosa, torna seu manejo complexo e prognóstico sombrio. Relato do Caso: Paciente masculino de 2 anos que iniciou náuseas e vômitos por 6 dias sem melhora, com suspeita de hipertensão intracraniana. À TC, constatou lesão em lobo frontal direito; e à RM, lesão sugestiva para tumor teratoide rabdoide. Após 1 mês, houve ressecção total e constatado gliossarcoma. Quatro meses depois, ocorreu recidiva tumoral tratada com ressecção parcial e radioterapia adjuvante, com vincristina semanal e ciclos de carboplatina e etoposídeo. A duração do tratamento adjuvante foi de 3 meses. Após 6 anos livres de doença, as sequelas atuais são epilepsia residual e sequela cognitiva leve. Discussão: As opções terapêuticas acabam imitando o tratamento disponível para glioblastoma com a terapia trimodal: tentativa de ressecção completa, radioterapia e quimioterapia. Estudos mostram que retirar uma dessas opções reduz a sobrevida dos pacientes. Conclusão: A falta de consenso na literatura é reflexo da falta de dados a respeito dessa raridade. Evidencia-se o valor científico do relato deste caso, com sobrevida excepcional quando comparado aos demais casos descritos em literatura.

Em busca de um teatro perdido: Notas sobre "O tribofe", de Arthur Azevedo
Authors: Reis Diego Dos Santos
Published: November 2020

Trata-se, neste ensaio, de tecer algumas considerações sobre O tribofe, de Arthur Azevedo, revista de ano de 1891, encenada pela primeira vez no Teatro Apolo, no Rio de Janeiro, em 1892. Por meio de uma análise contextual e dos procedimentos dramatúrgicos próprios ao gênero teatral das revistas de ano, pretende-se examinar de que forma é esboçado o retrato da jovem República brasileira, e o modo pelo qual a cena passa a ser um lugar privilegiado de crítica político-social das condições de vida nas cidades do final do século XIX. Ademais, recorrendo às análises sobre o riso, de Henri Bergson, busca-se expor de que modo o efeito cômico é acionado para problematizar os costumes e impasses dos processos da formação identitária brasileira.Palavras-chave: Teatro de Revista. Arthur Azevedo. Cômico. Crítica social.

Entre Simone de Beauvoir e Ana Cristina Cesar: um estudo sobre a literatura da mulher
Authors: Cerdeira João Pedro
Published: November 2020

O presente artigo tem como objetivo discutir o conceito de “literatura da mulher” a partir da leitura de duas importantes autoras do século XX: a filósofa francesa Simone de Beauvoir e a poeta, tradutora e crítica literária brasileira Ana Cristina Cesar. Ainda que distantes entre si, encontramos na produção intelectual de ambas as autoras diversas aproximações possíveis que nos permitem refletir a respeito das relações entre gênero e literatura a partir de noções como alteridade e representação, contribuindo para o debate em torno deste conceito.Palavras-chave: Literatura. Gênero. Mulher. Simone de Beauvoir. Ana Cristina Cesar. AbstractThis paper intends to discuss the concept of “women’s literature” from the analysis of two important authors of the 20th century: the French philosopher Simone de Beauvoir and the Brazilian poet, translator and literary critic Ana Cristina Cesar. Although distant from each other, we find in the intellectual production of both authors several possible approximations that allow us to reflect on the relations between gender and literature based on notions such as alterity and representation, contributing to the debate surrounding this concept.Keywords: Literature. Gender. Woman. Simone de Beauvoir. Ana Cristina Cesar.
Dobrar para desconhecer
Authors: Sbardelotto Diane
Published: November 2020

Este ensaio visual desdobra-se de uma pesquisa poética de mestrado na qual o corpo da pesquisadora-artista é tornado objeto de si em experimentação. Essa experimentação se dá a partir da produção de uma série de fotodobragens intitulada Mulher dobrada (2016-2019), realizada em um ambiente rural de origem. Com isso, busca pensar os processos de subjetivação do feminino. O conceito filosófico de dobra, presente nos estudos de filosofia de Michel Foucault e Gilles Deleuze é aberto ao ato físico de dobrar e redobrar o corpo ao meio. Um corpo definido em múltiplas formas, que pertence, mas, por vezes, destoa de seu ambiente. Um corpo que nasce nos diferentes ambientes, aos quais sempre volta, como os ciclos das plantas e a persistência de suas paisagens. Um corpo que, em uma poética, pode criar novas relações e voltar diferente. Fechado em si, protege-se do que é externo. Ao mesmo tempo, seu exercício particular é exposto ao outro, espectador. De dentro e para fora do próprio corpo, através da imagem, o gesto repetido de dobrar-se ao meio testa sua resistência. Entre a ductilidade e a quebra, movimento e inoperância, entre continuidade e ruptura, pertencimento e estranheza, no entre, visa desafiar a anatomia e o olhar identificador do corpo de mulher conhecido, através de uma mulher que olha para si.
Um teto para a crítica genética: a teoria e o pesquisador da gênese
Authors: Andretta Luana Maria
Published: November 2020

O estudo de manuscritos literários pode se revelar como um terreno fecundo para a compreensão de movimentos criativos, a observação de hábitos redacionais e a reatualização de uma obra. Contudo, a crítica genética, ciência que embasa tal trabalho, vem disputando um espaço dentro do campo literário desde seu surgimento. A partir dessas considerações, o objetivo deste artigo é identificar os motivos que geram a marginalização da crítica genética e as perspectivas apresentadas por essa jovem ciência para a contemporaneidade. Para tanto, por meio de um levantamento bibliográfico, foram elencados e discutidos os três motivos que geram tal marginalidade, bem como as possíveis contribuições dos processos genéticos para diversas áreas do saber e perante o avanço tecnológico.Palavras-chave: Manuscritos literários. Crítica Genética. Marginalidade. Perspectivas.
O devir-criança de Graciliano Ramos: uma leitura de Infância a partir de Deleuze
Authors: Souza Bruno Henrique Alvarenga
Published: November 2020

Este artigo tem por objetivo realizar uma leitura do livro Infância, de Graciliano Ramos, a partir de conceitos cunhados pelo filósofo Gilles Deleuze. Desse modo, será discutida a escrita memorialista de Graciliano em confluência com a concepção deleuziana de impessoalidade na literatura, culminando na hipótese de que o escritor realiza em Infância, por meio de sua divisão entre menino-protagonista e adulto-narrador, aquilo que Deleuze chama de devir-criança.Palavras-chave: Graciliano Ramos.

Pessimism and monstrosity: a comparative analysis between Frankenstein and The Hunger Games
Authors: Dos Santos Benedito Andressa Carolina , Martinez Tarran Fernanda
Published: November 2020

A partir de uma análise comparativa entre a obra consagrada Frankenstein, de Mary Shelley, e a trilogia contemporânea Jogos Vorazes, de Suzanne Collins, este trabalho pretende assinalar a visão pessimista quanto ao progresso tecnológico e científico que ambas compartilham. Apoiamo-nos na teoria de Walter Benjamin e Hannah Arendt, pensadores que escreveram sobre a mesma visão pessimista. Ademais, nossa pesquisa investiga as faces da monstruosidade na trilogia Jogos Vorazes em contraste com a criatura gerada por Frankenstein, categorizada como monstro clássico. Por fim, assinalamos a provável inclinação das mensagens finais para um pessimismo quanto ao progresso científico e tecnológico. Nosso objetivo é o de mostrar como essas histórias, separadas por quase duzentos anos, convergem para o mesmo questionamento sobre o futuro.
Association of cardiometabolic multimorbidity and depression with cardiovascular events in early-onset adult type 2 diabetes: a multi-ethnic study in the USA
Authors: Dibato John Epoh , Montvida Olga , Zaccardi Francesco , Sargeant Jack Alistair , Davies Melanie J , Khunti Kamlesh , Paul Sanjoy K
Published: November 2020

Objective:
To evaluate
the temporal patterns of cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CM) and depression in
White Caucasian (WC) and African American (AA) with early-onset type 2
diabetes, and their impact on long-term Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease
(ASCVD).

Research
Design and Methods: From US electronic medical record, 101,104 AA and
505,336 WC subjects with type 2 diabetes diagnosis between 2000-2017 were
identified (mean follow-up: 5.3 years). Among those without ASCVD at diagnosis,
risk of ASCVD and MACE-3 (HF, myocardial
infarction, or stroke) was evaluated between ethnicities by age groups.

Results:
Proportion of patients
diagnosed at <50 years increased during 2012-2017 (AA: 34-38%; WC: 26-29%). Depression
prevalence increased during 2000-2017 (AA: 15-23%; WC: 20-34%) with an
increasing trend for CM at diagnosis in both groups.

Compared
to WC, the adjusted MACE-3 risk was significantly higher in AA across all age
groups, more pronounced in 18-39 years group (HR CI: 1.42-1.88) and in people
with and without depression. AA had 17% (HR CI: 1.05-1.31) significantly higher
adjusted ASCVD risk in the 18-39 years group only. Depression was independently
associated with ASCVD and MACE-3 risk in both ethnic groups across all age
groups. Other comorbidities were independently associated with ASCVD and MACE-3
risk only among WC.

Conclusions:
AA have
higher cardiovascular risk compared to WC, particularly in early-onset T2DM. CM
and depression at diabetes diagnosis has been increasing over last two decades
in both ethnic groups. Strategies for screening and optimal
management of CM and depression particularly in early-onset T2DM may result in
a lower cardiovascular risk.

THE ISLAMIC CHARACTER VALUES OF KUPATAN TRADITION IN BANGKALAN, MADURA, EAST JAVA
Authors: Ningsih Tutuk
Published: November 2020

Characters are formed in a community through tradition, custom, and cultural activities. A religious tradition called Kupatan has been car- ried out by the Madurese community, especially in Bangkalan, and has been passed down from generation to generation. This study aims to determine the Islamic character values in the Kupatan tradition. The re- sults of this study reveal that the Kupatan tradition could build Islamic character values of the Bangkalan community through various activities in it, namely silaturrahmi, anjang-sana, and almsgiving. The Kupatan tradition is held every year in the month of Shawwal, to be precise after seven days of the Sunnah fast by following the instructions of their an- cestors. Through this tradition, people could increase friendships (main- taining kinship ties) through visits to the houses of family, friends, and fellow community members (silaturrahmi). Silaturrahmi is highly recom- mended in Islam since it could extend life and expand sustenance (rezeki). Besides, the tradition of almsgiving (sedekah), in which all members of the community, both the fortunate and the less fortunate ones, exchange gifts, could also build moral values. The gift-givers should not expect anything in return but the pleasure (ridha) of Allah SWT. The manifesta- tion of Islamic character values in Kupatan could form a community that is religious, responsible, socially and environmentally caring, friendly and communicative, loves the homeland, and is creative.
