“We don't care about these kids”: Chicago, Ethnic Studies, and the Politics of Caring
Authors: Rodriguez Cinthya
Published: March 2021

This article juxtaposes two recent Chicago Public Schools (CPS) policies and expands upon Angela Valenzuela’s (1999) “politics of caring.” Given the unique space of Chicago for modeling neoliberal school reform policies, I analyze both the 2013 massive CPS closings that targeted predominantly Black communities and the subsequent institutionalization of African American and Latina/o Studies through CPS committees and curriculum. These CPS school closings and ethnic studies policies, I argue, mark a foundational relationship of racial and colonial power between students and communities of color and the settler city-state. Drawing upon community testimonies, news and popular media, and critical caring and ethnic studies scholarship, this article interrogates that racial-colonial relationship by tracing the manipulation of the politics of aesthetic and authentic caring through the Chicago public schooling apparatus. Finally, given current community struggles for education, I examine the possibilities of theorizing beyond authentic caring and towards a decolonial politics of caring.
Teaching in the Service of Fugitive Learning
Authors: Zaino Karen
Published: March 2021

In educational scholarship, abolition and fugitivity have been used to theorize youth literacy practices (The Fugitive Literacies Collective, 2020), teaching in solidarity with Black and brown communities (Love, 2019), and learning as an act of rebellion within the oppressive structures of schooling (Patel, 2016; 2019). Additionally, recent works in sociology (Shedd, 2015) and anthropology (Shange, 2020; Sojoyners, 2016) have thoughtfully and comprehensively documented the ways in which the disciplinary mechanisms of schools serve to contain, surveil, and expunge Black students. This paper draws on these recent scholarly interventions as a lens through which educators might engage with the students who and schools in which they teach. Patel (2016) suggests that authentic learning in schools structured by racial capitalism is a “fugitive act”—elusive, subaltern, and, as a result, under-theorized” (Patel, 2016, p. 397). What “fugitive acts of learning” take place in our schools? What relationship to these practices can teachers adopt so that we might “serve and shield” these spaces of “unruly learning” (Patel, 2016, p. 400)?
The Horseshoe Theory of Mental Illness and Incarceration
Authors: Liu Alicia Y.
Published: March 2021

This paper focuses on the relationship between historical mental illness treatment and modern incarceration, reimagining it as a horseshoe, with mental illness on one end and prison on the other. There are three reasons why the two parallel each other, these being: formulated sequestration, chronicity, and histories of failed high-minded reform. The paper then writes about the intersection of the two in a mental health ward in a prison. The last aspect discussed is the gap between the ends of the horseshoe, which is due to the role of volition.
Media, Criminal Injustice, and the Black Freedom Struggle
Authors: Turner Erin G.
Published: March 2021

Since the mid-20th century, media outlets have driven publicity for newsworthy events and shaped content for their receptive audiences. Commonly, massive movements seek publicity to attract attention and participation for protests, demonstrations, slogans, and unfortunate events. For instance, the black freedom struggle of the 1950s through the 1970s took advantage of their traumatic narratives of oppression to attract national and international attention. Many African Americans who experienced dastardly components of a racist criminal justice system were, in turn, earning respect and power from their freedom-seeking counterparts by commodifying the emotion that fueled black liberation efforts.[i] Media, therefore, became a tool for exposing the nation to racist law enforcement and legal action. Ultimately, black freedom struggle activists deployed media depictions of their policing, arrest, and imprisonment to be used as movement publicity, earning increased participation and advancing movement motives through this subsequent growing interest.

Selection from "Una Iglesia Desaparecida: The End of an Era for the Chilean Catholic Church"
Authors: Porras Payea September
Published: March 2021

This article aims to investigate the changing political alignment of the Chilean Catholic Church following the fall of the dictatorship in the early 1990’s. The author brings together a primary source collection of new articles, photographs, and interviews, as well as a secondary source collection of sociological surveys and historiography, to interrogate the process and outcome of this political transition. The article maintains that desires for hierarchical control and a rejection of past, progressive theology motivated Church leaders to transition the Church away from community based leadership, to clerical control.

Authors: GENÇTÜRK Mehmet , ERDEM Hasan , SÖZEN Selim
Published: March 2021

With abdominoplasty, loosening and sagging problems caused by excessive weight loss are corrected. After bariatric surgery, especially Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB), the frequency of gallstone formation increases compared to the normal population due to rapid weight loss. Even if the patient is asymptomatic, it is important to perform an abdominal ultrasound examination of all patients who admit for abdominoplasty, especially following postoperative weight loss for morbid obesity. In this study, we tried to state that scarless laparoscopic cholecystectomy and abdominoplasty can be performed safely.

Authors: BAKİ Adile Merve , VURAL Pervin , AYDIN Abdurrahman Fatih , SOLUK TEKKEŞİN Merva , DOĞRU-ABBASOĞLU Semra , UYSAL Müjdat
Published: March 2021

Aim: Oxidative stress and inflammation are important for development of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). High fat diet (HFD) acts as promoter and induces cancer formation by diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-initiated carcinogenesis. DEN+HFD experimental model may be suitable to investigate the relationship between diet, cirrhosis and cancer.

Methods: Rats were injected with DEN (50 mg/kg/once a week; i.p.) for 4 weeks. After 15 days, rats received HFD with/without supplementations of α-lipoic acid (ALA; 2 g/kg chow), N-acetylcysteine (NAC; 1% w/v drinking water) and their combination for 12 weeks.

Results: DEN+HFD-treatment resulted in increase of serum hepatic damage markers, hepatic oxidative stress parameters (lipid/protein oxidation products) and fibrotic changes. However, no HCC nodule was detected. Hepatic GST-pi and Ki-67 expressions also increased. Accordingly, DEN+HFD-treatment resulted in precancerous lesions and high rate of proliferation in the liver. NAC supplementation decreased hepatic oxidative stress and formation of fibrotic and preneoplastic lesions of DEN+HFD-treated rats. However, ALA supplementation did not have a curative effect on these lesions. No synergistic effect was seen with co-administration of ALA and NAC.

Conclusions: According to present results NAC, acting as an antioxidant, has ameliorating effect on DEN+HFD-induced oxidative stress and the formation of preneoplastic lesions in liver.
Evaluation of perianal fistulas with magnetic resonance imaging: Significance of T2-weighted BLADE sequence in disease diagnosis
Authors: DERELİ BULUT Safiye Sanem , SAKCI Zakir
Published: March 2021

Introduction: Anatomical details of perianal fistulas can be revealed more clearly by T2-weighted (T2-W) periodically rotated overlapping parallel lines with enhanced reconstruction (BLADE)sequence during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This study aimed to compare the efficacy of the T2-W BLADE sequence and the T2-W turbo spin-echo (TSE) sequence in diagnosing perianal fistula, as well as to compare the findings with the results obtained using the dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) T1-weighted (T1-W) sequence during routine pelvic MRI examination.

Methods: Ninety patients (M/F: 67/23) who had undergone pelvic MRI examination (1.5Tesla) for the prediagnosis of perianal fistula were included in this prospective study.

In addition to our routine pelvic MRI protocol, T2-W BLADE sequence imaging and T2-W TSE sequence imaging in the axial, sagittal, and coronal planes were performed. Using a three-stage scoring system, two radiologists independently compared the T2-W BLADE and T2-W TSE sequences with each other and then with the DCE T1-W sequence in terms of perianal fistula imaging. Statistical analysis was performed using a sample t-test and the Cronbach’s α test.

Results: Compared with the T2-W TSE sequence, the T2-W BLADE sequence was associated with fewer ghosting artifacts, higher overall image quality, and with clearer visualization of the anatomical details of the perianal fistula (p < 0.05). Images with high anatomic details and contrast resolution were obtained using the T2-W BLADE sequence similar to those obtained using the DCE T1-W sequence (p < 0.05).

Conclusion: On the basis of the reduced imaging time and on the higher image resolution, T2-W images can be obtained with the BLADE technique for the diagnosis of perianal fistula.

Published: March 2021

Flexible, rigid, and paving block pavements can be used as alternative roads because the soil conditions on the Pantai Utara Flores road are rocky soil with a relatively high CBR so that the most important role in withstand load is subgrade. The purpose of the Comparison of Construction and Costs for Flexible, Rigid, and Paving Block Pavement Structures on Jalan Pantai Utara Flores is to know which one most effective and efficient when viewed from the traffic load  with each  pavement using the Bina Marga method, AASHTO , and Direktorat Jendral Bina Marga. Jalan Pantai Utara Flores is access to Komodo Labuan Bajo airport which is a Class I road, rocky land with a relatively high CBR, rainfall of Labuan Bajo is relatively low, LHR in Labuan Bajo is relatively small, besides Labuan Bajo is a tourist area that should be supported  by road access that has driving comfort so the suitable pavement structure for Jalan Pantai Utara Flores is flexible pavement. Meanwhile, based on the recapitulation of the analysis results, the cost of flexible pavement is Rp. 28,793,604,705,600, the cost of a rigid pavement  is Rp. 34,218,430,585,828 and  the cost of paving block pavement  is Rp. 17,410,645,080,000 so it can be seen that the paving block pavement is most economical, but the paving block pavement structure has a very uncomfortable driving comfort besides that the paving block pavement structure cannot be passed by vehicles at high speed so that the paving block pavement structure is more suitable for controlling speed of vehicles such as roads in crowded urban areas and residential roads.

Glass bottles waste are generated from industrial and household activities that can’t be decomposed, if the amount is too much it will damage for the environment. In this study, glass waste will be reused as a filler in concrete especially fine aggregate, because glass bottles waste has weather resistance. The data was analyzed by using regression and classical assumption test with SPSS programme with the help of SPSS 20 for windows software. The variables used in this study were the independent variable (glass bottle waste) and the dependent variable (tensile strength). Based on the results of the analysis, it is obtained that the maximum tensile strength is at the variation of 0% and 12.5%, where at the 0% variation, the tensile strength is obtained at 44 Kg/cm, while at the 12.5% variation, the tensile strength is obtained at 40 Kg/cm. This can be seen in the results of the simple linear regression analysis using the SPSS 20 for windows program which shows that the effect of adding glass waste has a significant effect on tensile strength.
A. F. Pisemsky and Joint-Stock Companies in the Middle of 19th Century: Economic Processes and Literary Commentary (On the Basis of the Novel The Turbulent Sea)
Authors: Ponomareva Anastasia A.
Published: March 2021

In the following article, we analyze the trends in literary depiction of an important economic process in the post-war times (late 1850s), namely joint-stock companies, in A. F. Pisemsky’s novel The Turbulent Sea (1863). We detect and offer commentary on the parallels between descriptions of the ‘joint-stock fever’ depicted in the novel, and the materials on private enterpreneurship published in late 1850s. We offer a detailed analysis on the references to polemics between members of the Russian Society of Steamship Companies and Trade, one of the most influential joint-stock companies of the time, and N. P. Perosio, a journalist and economist, as well as the creator of The Reading Library and The Saint-Petersburg Bulletin. Our research is based on N. P. Perosio’s works, namely Notes on the Report by the Russian Society of Steamship Companies and Trade, The Protest, as well as Tondi’s The Reply to Sir Perosio’s Notes on the Report by the Russian Society of Steamship Companies and Trade, and V. Shultz’s A Dispute Between Sirs Perosio and Smirnov, The Response of Administrator Director of the Russian Society of Steamship Companies and Trade N. A. Novoselsky to Articles Criticizing Company Management, Notes and Projects of Establishment of a Coal Mine on Don, etc. We conclude that the analysis of strategies of depiction of economic processes in the novel offers a clearer understanding of A. F. Pisemsky’s perception of the ‘era of great reforms’. The novel shows that the idea expressed by the new government (development of private enterpreneurship) resulted in the emergence of unskilled enactors: the joint-stock companies were joined by people who lacked practical knowledge and did not wish to learn it, which, in its turn, resulted in wide-scale frauds performed by directors.
Biographies of Princesses in Architectonics of the Book of Royal Degrees
Authors: Melnichuk Valentina A.
Published: March 2021

The article presents the materials of the Book of the Royal Genealogy (16th century), associated with female images, describes their place in the plot and composition structure (architectonics) of the monument. The life of the Equal-to-the-Apostles Princess Olga, which opens the Book of the Royal Genealogy, emphasizes the legitimacy of the author’s plan, which includes almost all the stories about princely wives and mothers from brief news to detailed stories. The role of these messages is to celebrate the piety of all branches of the royal family. In the characteristics of female representatives of princely families, the author emphasizes the features noted by him in the life of St. Princess Olga (Elena): loyalty to Orthodoxy, service to the cause of its spread, care for the princely family, enlightenment, participation in the earthly affairs of the church (construction of churches, charity), etc. The lives of the princesses are included by the author in the architectonic of the Royal Genealogy, harmoniously fitting into the main concept of the monument.
Some Observations on Demonstrative Pronouns in the Tarnovo Edition of the Stishen Prologue
Authors: Tihova Aneta
Published: March 2021

The article successively examines the demonstrative pronouns for general display, for close people and objects, for distant people and objects and for enumerating, which have the function of the 3rd person forms of personal pronouns in the Tarnovo edition of the Stishen Prologue (a calendar hagiographic collection, translated in the first half of the fourteenth century). It is established that the semantics of the demonstrative forms is determined by the context: in a combination with a noun form they have an indicative meaning, and in a combination with a verb form they mean a third-person pronoun, for example, съи блажен!и which means този блаженият (“this blissful one”), съи бэше means той беше (“he was”). The use of the elongated forms for masculine тъи, for feminine тя, for the plural тие / тйе which later turn into he, she and they, as well as the presence of the new forms тои, characteristic of the spoken language, are historically significant.
Direct N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate injections to the head and neck for percutaneous embolized devascularization
Authors: Fiani Brian , Soula Marisol , Sarhadi Kasra , Nikolaidis Daniel , Gautam Neha , Fiani Nicholas J. , Jenkins Ryne , Rose Alexander
Published: March 2021

Background:

N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) has been used for vascular malformations since the 1980s; however, few studies have looked at applications, procedural techniques, and outcome throughout many institutions. Herein, we review applications, procedural techniques, previous literature, and outcomes for the use of NBCA specifically through percutaneous technique in treating head and neck vascular pathology.

Methods:

An extensive literature review using PubMed database with published literature containing “N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate embolization,” was performed. No date restrictions were used. Cross-checking of articles was conducted to exclude duplicate articles. The articles were screened for their full text and English language availability. We finalized those articles pertaining to the topic.

Results:

The search yielded 1124 related articles. When comparing surgical resection to embolization with NBCA for cerebral AVMs, complications were similar in both groups and included hemorrhage (15%), residual AVM (6%), and cerebrospinal fluid leak (3%). Their mortality rate was 3% in both groups. Preoperative percutaneous embolization does show improved surgical outcomes.

Conclusion:

NBCA is a fast-acting liquid embolic material used in the treatment of a variety of vascular malformations and lesions of the head and neck. Investigations surrounding the use of NBCA injections as a new alternative embolic agent began in the 1980’s. Administration of NBCA has been shown to be useful in minimizing intraoperative blood loss and controlling acute hemorrhage. Performing percutaneous embolization with NBCA provides a successful alternative for surgeons when transcatheter embolization techniques may prove to be too difficult to perform. Embolization using NBCA will continue to play in integral role in the treatment of malignant lesions and vascular malformations. Continued research is warranted to improve safety, outcomes, and further develop clinical applications of NBCA.

UKRAINIAN HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION IN THE CONTEXT OF UKRAINIAN HISTORIOGRAPHY OF THE 20th CENTURY (ANNIVERSARY NOTES)
Authors: Atamanenko Alla , Atamanenko Viktor
Published: March 2021

The authors attempt to analyze and summarize the scientific contributions of the members of the Ukrainian Historical Association, mostly published in The Ukrainian Historian journal in 1965–1991 and in the book format. At the same time, the main attention is paid not only to research issues but also to research tools of individual members of society, formed both by their professional training and socio-cultural environment of their lives and scientific creativity, which determined the level of research opportunities. The society was founded in 1965 on the initiative of the eminent researcher and organizer of science Lubomyr Roman Wynar (1932–2017), with the support of other scientists. The Ukrainian Historian journal, around which the unification took place, was founded by the scientist in 1963. The Association brought together researchers from different periods of the Ukrainian historical process, who belonged to several scientific generations, lived on different continents and, due to different life scenarios, did not always belong to the Western university environment, yet created the scientific product in Ukrainian and foreign languages. Based on correspondence and publications, the authors attempt to trace the reception of approaches to the formulation and elucidation of scientific problems, by members of the Western and Ukrainian Soviet Science. The article draws attention to the possibility of using source materials on the history of Ukraine, approaches to the study of sources, the creation of a source base for the study of events of the twentieth century by the Ukrainian scholars abroad. Particular attention is paid to the importance of the Ukrainian language in publications, and the possibility of interaction with the Western scientific world.

SLAVIC COMMUNITIES IN AUSTRALIA: THE HISTORICAL BACKGROUND AND THE CURRENT SITUATION
Authors: Romanenko Olena
Published: March 2021

Migration to the Australian continent has ancient origins. On 1 January 1901, the Federation of the Commonwealth of Australia included six former colonies: New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Tasmania, Queensland, and Western Australia. The British origin had 78% of those who were born overseas. The immigration was high on the national agenda. The most ambitious nation-building plan based on immigration was adopted in Australia in the post-World War II period. The shock of the war was so strong that even old stereotypes did not prevent Australians from embarking on immigration propaganda with the slogan “Populate or Perish”. In the middle 1950s, the Australian Department of Immigration realized that family reunion was an important component of successful settlement. In 1955 the Department implemented “Operation Reunion” – a scheme was intended to assist family members overseas to migrate to the continent and reunite with the family already living in Australia. As a result, 30000 people managed to migrate from countries such as Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland, Romania, the Soviet Union, and the former Yugoslavia under this scheme. Today Australia’s approach to multicultural affairs is a unique model based on integration and social cohesion. On governmental level, the Australians try to maintain national unity through respect and preservation of cultural diversity. An example of such an attitude to historical memory is a database created by the Department of Home Affairs (DHA). For our research, we decided to choose information about residents of East-Central European origin (Ukraine-born, Poland-born, and Czech Republic-born citizens) in Australia, based on the information from the above mentioned database. The article provides the brief historical background of Polish, Ukrainian and Czech groups on the Continent and describes the main characteristics of these groups of people, such as geographic distribution, age, language, religion, year of arrival, median income, educational qualifications, and employment characteristics.
CAPABILITY OF THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF MODERN UKRAINE IN PROGRESS OF THE NATIONAL EDUCATION AREA
Authors: Zhelezniak Mykola
Published: March 2021

Reforming of education requires updating its content and methodological components, including didactic toolkits. In a broad sense, the proposed study is concerned with the design and implementation of a wide range of educational tools in the educational process. In a narrow sense, it identifies the opportunities and prospects of using encyclopedic online resources as a didactic toolkit. These issues are covered on the example of the e-version of The Encyclopedia of Modern Ukraine. The idea of using electronic encyclopedias in the educational process is not new. Researchers suggest that thematic encyclopedias are very important in the teaching of certain subjects. The introduction of encyclopedias into teaching is a contemporary trend initiated by the publishers of the world’s largest encyclopedias. For example, the popular Encyclopedia Britannica has recently become available in three online versions: for primary school students (Britannica Kids), middle school students (Britannica Students), and high school students (Britannica Scholars). This study demonstrates that the Encyclopedia of Modern Ukraine a) can be a platform for providing encyclopedic knowledge in a subject; b) can be a didactic tool that increases the effectiveness of learning; c) can be used as a source of information for in-depth study of topics in various subjects. Thus, electronic encyclopedias (in particular the online-version of the Encyclopedia of Modern Ukraine) provide significant opportunities for successful study of educational material, focusing on the most important aspects of educational topics and creating conditions for systematization and generalization of information, as well as actively involving students in self-study, arousing their interest in learning and generally increasing their motivation.
THE COVERAGE OF UKRAINE AND UKRAINIANS IN THE AUSTRALIAN ENCYCLOPEDIA
Authors: Ishchenko Oleksandr
Published: March 2021

In this article, we present an analysis of the 10-volumed Australian Encyclopedia published in 1958. The purpose of the analysis is to identify encyclopedic information concerning the Ukrainian people. Since the late 19th century, a part of the Ukrainian ethnic group inhabits the Australian continent, so it is natural to expect the appearance of Ukrainians in encyclopedic publications of Australia. But do Australians mention Ukrainians in their own fundamental encyclopedias? This question is caused not only by the general interest, but also by the fact that Ukraine is shown in the national narratives of many countries through various myths generated by Soviet propaganda. Therefore, the analysis of the representation of Ukrainians in the pages of foreign encyclopedias is a topical issue of contemporary Ukrainian studies in general. In this study, we found that the main body of information about Ukrainians is statistical data about the Ukrainian community in Australia, which settled after the Second World War. Among the 10 volumes there are no mentions of Ukraine, its capital, prominent people of the nation, etc. In addition, general highlights of the Australian encyclopedia publishing sphere are proposed. It is noted that the Australian Encyclopedia as a fundamental work published in six editions during 1925–1996 is the main achievement of the Australian encyclopediography. It is noteworthy that there is currently no national online encyclopedia in Australia. At the same time, there are domain (subject-specific) publications by research teams among other achievements of contemporary Australian encyclopedia publishing, such as the Encyclopaedia of Aboriginal Australia, the Historical Encyclopedia of Western Australia, the Companion to Tasmanian History, etc.
DEVELOPMENT OF UKRAINIAN LITERATURE IN ARGENTINA IN THE 20th CENTURY
Authors: Nakashydze Iryna
Published: March 2021

Argentina is one of the countries that are inhabited by a large number of ethnic Ukrainians. The purpose of this article is to study the development of Ukrainian literature in Argentina. One of the tasks aimed at achieving this goal is the introduction of the names of emigrant writers into scientific circulation. The arrival of a large number of active and educated people in Argentina in the interwar period (including writers O. Drahomanova, P. Buk, O. Devlad, etc.) led to the emergence of new forms of public life. A large number of literary and art schools, libraries, and reading rooms appeared. An important factor in the preservation of ethnic identity and the development of cultural life was the formation of the Ukrainian Cultural Society “Prosvita” in 1924. The biggest wave of emigration took place during the postwar period. Writers such as L. Holotsvan, Y. Prylutska-Farni, K. Buldyn, etc. arrived here. At this time Argentina became a real cultural center of Ukrainians. The Society of Artists, Writers and Scholars was formed, uniting almost all cultural figures. In the biography and works of many writers of this period Argentina appears as an “intermediate” point (for example, I. Kachurovsky, O. Kerch, V. Kulish, Yu. Krokhmalyuk-Tys, etc.). Writers from all over the world have long been united by the magazine “Porogy”. Unfortunately, with the death of writers in Argentina (as in the rest of the world), literary life almost subsided. Among the writers of the fourth wave of emigration can be identified I. Voloshchuk. Translation activity played a significant role. From the beginning of the resettlement, Ukrainian emigrants distributed works of T. Shevchenko, I. Franko, M. Shashkevych, and L. Ukrainka. Many of the writers translated Ukrainian works into Spanish and vice versa. Thus, literary life in Argentina developed very actively in the 20th century. It was most striking in the postwar period, when a large number of cultural figures emigrated here. The research started in this article is promising for the future, as further detailed study of the features of works of art of Ukrainian-speaking writers in Argentina is required.
