Generał Tadeusz Rozwadowski pod Gorlicami – prawda i mit
Authors: Kułacz Sławomir
Published: July 2022

Powszechnie uważa się, że gen. Tadeusz Rozwadowski wziął czynny udział w zwycięskich walkach państw centralnych pod Gorlicami w maju 1915 r. Stwierdzenie to, którego źródłem są wczesne, nieobiektywne biografie i wspomnienia generała, nie odpowiada jednak prawdzie. W kluczowych dniach nie piastował on stanowiska dowódcy XII Brygady Artylerii ani żadnego innego, na którym miałby wpływ na planowanie i przebieg walk. Wynika to jasno z przeanalizowanych akt operacyjnych jednostek austro-węgierskich kilku szczebli. Ponieważ jednak Rozwadowski był świadkiem bitwy, potrafił zrelacjonować ją na tyle dokładnie, że do dziś jest kojarzony z gorlicką wiktorią.

W  latach 1588–1589 w  bezpośrednim sąsiedztwie pałacu królewskiego w  podkrakowskim Łobzowie staraniem Anny Jagiellonki wzniesiono nowy dom folwarczny. Na podstawie sporządzonego wówczas inwentarza i rachunków budowy zrekonstruowano architekturę, układ funkcjonalny oraz przeznaczenie wspomnianego obiektu. Dzięki zestawieniu źródeł rękopiśmiennych, ikonograficznych i planistycznych wyznaczono także domniemaną lokalizację domu folwarcznego. W aneksie zamieszczono edycję dwóch źródeł, które dały asumpt do niniejszej publikacji.
Ciudad y feminicidio: el caso de Ciudad Juárez, México
Authors: Gutiérrez Amparán Jesús Raúl
Published: July 2022

La violencia urbana derivada de la ausencia de estrategias de planeación, ordenación y susten­tabilidad para la generación de ciudades, ha repercutido en la vida digna de las y los habitantes de estos territorios, especialmente de poblaciones históricamente violentadas. La violencia de género, presente en todos los contextos sociales, se ve reflejada en la urbanización de los espacios que generan procesos de discriminación, exclusión e inseguridad manifiesta en los miles de desapariciones de mujeres y niñas, así como los feminicidios a lo largo de los últimos 30 años en Ciudad Juárez, México. De esta manera, las políticas neoliberales de hacer ciudad contribuyen a los asesinatos de mujeres y niñas en el espacio público.

In vitro Antimicrobial Evaluation of an Isolated Compound from Sea Star Stellaster Equisteris
Authors: R Sumitha R Sumitha , M Dharshana M Dharshana , N. Banu N. Banu , S Vijayalakshmi S Vijayalakshmi
Published: July 2022

Natural biomedical metabolites procured from marine sources have been the sole source of recent research. The antimicrobial resistance to human infections has made a mounting need for novel natural antibiotics. Much explored marine invertebrates largely the echinoderms (sea stars) tend to pose a natural innate mechanism to safeguard them against predators. The sea star secretes antimicrobial peptides which are naturally occurring secondary metabolites that possess a broad spectrum of antimicrobial susceptibility against bacteria, fungi, and viruses. The present study centers on the aspects of isolation and evaluation of active bioactive metabolite from the echinoderm Stellaster equestris from the Chennai coast. The whole body was utilized for the extraction using non-polar to polar solvents. The active crude extracts were investigated by qualitative assay for their chemical composition and were purified by column chromatography. The purity of the compound was further analyzed and checked for purity and quantified by the High-pressure liquid chromatography. The defined concentration of the isolated and purified compound from sea star Stellaster equestris (50,100, 150, 200, 250 and 300µg/ml) were subjected for antimicrobial sensitivity by well diffusion method and Tube dilution method. The outcome of the present study indicated the active crude extract from the sea star Stellaster equestris was rich in sterols. The evaluation of antimicrobial susceptibility by tube dilution and well diffusion assay indicated that the isolated purified compound from the sea star Stellaster equestris was reported to be evident for all the above-mentioned concentrations by a marked zone of clearance. A dose-dependent increase was observed in the tube dilution method. Therefore compounds possess antimicrobial activity and can be further subjected for developing the compound as a potent antimicrobial drug.

Published: July 2022

As distintas e individuais características naturais e sociais, que prevalecem em uma determinada área, podem influenciar no desencadeamento do processo de desertificação. Acredita-se que alguns desses elementos apresentam maiores correlações com a gênese do processo, tais como o clima, o relevo e a ação antrópica, e outros com os efeitos desse processo, tais como a vegetação, o solo e os corpos hídricos. Nesse artigo especifica-se a discussão sobre fatores gênese, buscando demonstrar como o relevo e o clima, são configurados como importantes precursores da desertificação no núcleo dos Inhamuns, Ceará, Brasil. Utiliza-se na compreensão do relevo as diferentes orografias e do clima, os dados meteorológicos e dados pluviométricos centenários. A área de estudo, foi delimitada visando realizar comparações, entre áreas desertificadas e não desertificadas, sobre efeitos orográficos. Observa-se com as análises, que o processo de desertificação na área de estudo, pode ser desencadeado pela influência da interação, relevo e clima.

Disjecta membra: cuatro folios procedentes de un libro de horas iluminado en el reino de Valencia
Authors: Planas Badenas Josefina
Published: July 2022

Este estudio analiza las conexiones existentes entre dos folios sueltos conservados en el Fitzwilliam Museum de Cambridge (Mary cuttings Sp. 1ª-1b) originarios de un libro de horas de origen valenciano, con otros dos folios adquiridos recientemente por la Biblioteca Nacional de España (RES/124/19) y (RES/124/20), cuyas afinidades estilísticas revelan una procedencia común. Estos cuatro fragmentos muestran analogías estilísticas con un Oficier Dominical de la catedral de Valencia (Valencia, Arxiu de la catedral, LF 46) relacionado con el pintor y miniaturista Pedro Juan Ballester. A este artista también se adscriben el Calvario de un misal de Toledo (Toledo, Archivo de la catedral, ms. Res. 1, fol. 149v) y las imágenes que preceden el Canon de la misa, en un Misal para el uso del obispo de Valencia (Valencia, Arxiu Capitular, ms. 105).
El blanco inaudible: G. Richter [Cage 1-6]; H. Holliger [Scardanelli-Zyklus]; S. Sciarrino [Un’immagine di Arpocrate (Su frammenti di Goethe e Wittgenstein)]
Authors: Gonzalo Carbó Antoni
Published: July 2022

En Über das Geistige in der Kunst (De lo espiritual en el arte), Wassily Kandinsky afirma que «el blanco suena como un silencio que de pronto puede comprenderse». Esta frase es citada por el compositor italiano Salvatore Sciarrino (Palermo, 1947), para expresar el sentido último de su música: «una música que ha perdido el elemento sonoro», «una música que nace en el silencio y vuelve al silencio», «dal nulla al nulla». El presente artículo analiza la importancia que el color blanco reviste en la creación contemporánea para expresar simbólicamente el silencio absoluto, lo inaudible, una alquimia sonora insondable, reflejado en los campos de la pintura abstracta –Gerhard Richter [Cage 1-6, 2006], serie de pinturas inspiradas en el silencio de John Cage– y la música –Heinz Holliger [Scardanelli-Zyklus, 1975-91], sobre el silencio del Hölderlin tardío; Salvatore Sciarrino [Un’immagine di Arpocrate (Su frammenti di Goethe e Wittgenstein), 1974-79], composición que contempla el silencio último del Tractatus de Wittgenstein: «De lo que no se puede hablar hay que callar».
De la literatura al cinema. El cas Pasolini a Appunti per un’Orestiade africana
Authors: Radigales Jaume
Published: July 2022

El 1970, Pier Paolo Pasolini va dirigir Appunti per un'Orestiade africana, la base cinematogàfica per a un futur projecte de filmació de l’Orestiada d’Èsquil, ambientada a l’Àfrica subsahariana, i que finalment no va veure la llum. El treball que proposem situa la pel·lícula en el context d'un possible nou gènere cinematogràfic (els "apunts") i del postcolonialisme de la dècada de 1970. Així mateix, es posa de relleu la lectura crítica de Pasolini a partir de la seva obra i del text d'Èsquil.
Measuring China’s performance in the world economy: A benchmark comparison between the economies of China and the UK in the early twentieth century
Authors: Ma Ye , De Jong Herman , Xu Yi
Published: July 2022

This study draws attention to China’s industrialisation before WWII and gives a new starting point to review early industrial development in history. This study provides the first estimates of purchasing power parity (PPP) converters for the early 1910s between China and the UK. Statistical indicators, comparative output and labour productivity, are then calculated to address queries regarding the relative level that China’s early manufacturing had reached at the end of the Qing Empire (1911) –after half a century’s attempt to catch up with the West since the 1860s. By comparing the new 1910s benchmark with that of the 1930s, this study also for the first time presents the development of China’s early manufacturing in the inter-war period. We find that the growth in the inter-war period narrowed the gap with the early industrialised economies; however, the improvement was not unique for pre-war China, especially compared with the pace of industrialisation in Meiji Japan. The new benchmark also helps to show the regional pattern of pre-war China’s industrial performance.
Del signo a la doble imagen: paisaje/cara-cara/paisaje, a propósito de unas estampas de Picasso
Authors: Vives Piqué Maria Rosa
Published: July 2022

Al hilo de una parte de la vertiente sígnica en la obra gráfica de Picasso derivada tanto de la poética gestual, cuyo paradigma es el libro de artista Le chant des morts, como de la descripción plástica con signos que topografían rostros y retratos como el de Balzac, observamos como con estos mismos elementos, genera una particular corografía litográfica dedicada al pueblo de Vallauris. Con una misma escritura construye dos temas muy dispares: caras y paisajes. Motivos que llega a unir en una sola composición con doble lectura: a la vez se ve una cara y un paisaje o, al revés, según en la posición que se mire, como  Tête de femme au chapeau/Paisage aux baigneuses realizado en linóleo, una técnica de grabado que Picasso no sólo innovó, sino a la que le dio entidad propia, paralela a la ancestral xilografía.

La antropomorfización del paisaje es un recurso que enlaza con una larga y antigua tradición en pintura, desde los primerizos simbolistas a Arcimboldo, y de éste hasta los vanguardistas y surrealistas del siglo XX como Magritte, Cocteau, Man Ray, etc.  Igualmente, en la historia del grabado tanto culto, popular o funcional desde muy pronto proliferaron las imágenes dobles en la descripción del territorio mediante figuras portadoras de atributos referentes a las zonas, vinculados a la mitología, a la religión o a la significación del nombre del lugar, siendo un buen ejemplo los mapas xilográficos de H. Bünting en el libro Itinerarium Sacrae Scripturae.

La interpretación simbólica de estas obras y, especialmente, la lectura doble o inversa, tiene la particularidad de transferir al espectador la difícil problemática de anteponer una u otra dirección al convertirse en una singular cuestión de prioridad perceptiva que a menudo responde a la relatividad del que todo es según se mire.
Improved multiple-image authentication based on optical interference by wavelength multiplexing
Authors: Shan Mingguang , Guo Jianchao , Zhong Zhi , Liu Bin , Yu Lei , Liu Lei
Published: July 2022

In this paper, an improved multiple-image authentication based on optical interference by wavelength multiplexing is proposed, which has high security and easy optical implementation. The Fresnel spectra of original images are diffracted from the same axial position but by different wavelengths, which makes the optical implementation easy and stable without any mechanical translation. Then, the Fresnel spectra are sparsely sampled by predesigned binary amplitude masks and diffracted again, and all spectra are multiplexed into one synthetized spectrum. Finally, the synthetized spectrum is analytically decomposed into one phase-only mask and one amplitude-only mask by an improved interference-based encryption (IBE) scheme. Benefiting from the wavelength multiplexing, the encryption capacity is enlarged, and the optical implementation for decryption becomes easy. With the aid of the sparse sampling, every decrypted image could be entirely unrecognizable but authenticated by nonlinear correlation. Moreover, instead of a conventional IBE, an improved IBE is used in this scheme, which can attenuate the information leakage and further enhance the security. Various numerical simulation results are presented to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of this scheme.
Adaptive section non-uniformity correction method of short-wave infrared star images for a star tracker
Authors: Ni Yuanman , Wang Xingshu , Dai Dongkai , Tan Wenfeng , Qin Shiqiao
Published: July 2022

Using a short-wave infrared (SWIR) camera to improve daytime star detection ability has become a trend for near-ground star trackers. However, the noise of SWIR star images greatly decreases the accuracy of the attitude measurement results. Aiming at a real-time application of the star tracker, an adaptive section non-uniformity correction method based on the two-point correction algorithm for SWIR star images is proposed. The correction parameters of different sections are first calculated after the defective pixels are detected and excluded, and the real-time image is corrected using adaptive section parameters according to its gray value distribution. Finally, the defective pixels are compensated for by their adjacent corrected pixels. The correction results of both simulated and live-shot star images have verified the validity of the proposed method. It adapts to different sky background radiation, which is effective for the application of a star tracker. By comparing with other linear correction methods, it has the advantages of low calculation complexity, better real-time performance, and easier implementation in the hardware.

This work presents a simple microwave photonic downconversion channelizer based on multi-wavelength laser sources. The design of two laser diode (LD) arrays enables signal multiplexing and simultaneous multichannel downconversion processing, which provide stable, relatively flat, and strong multi-frequency combs. A proof-of-concept experiment was taken, showing that 14.375–17.75 GHz broadband radio frequency (RF) signals were successfully downconverted to the same intermediate frequency (IF) and were sliced into four subchannels with 875 MHz bandwidth showing excellent image rejection and channel uniformity, which agrees with the simulation results.

Metal organic vapor phase epitaxy of high-indium-composition InGaN quantum dots towards red micro-LEDs
Authors: Yu Luming , Wang Lei , Yang Peilong , Hao Zhibiao , Yu Jiadong , Luo Yi , Sun Changzheng , Xiong Bing , Han Yanjun , Wang Jian , Li Hongtao , Wang Lai
Published: July 2022

Micro-scale light-emitting diodes (micro-LEDs) are regarded as the next generation display technology. Compared to blue and green ones, InGaN-based red micro-LEDs require higher indium composition in their active region, which is quite challenging for material growth. Here, high-indium-composition InGaN quantum dots (QDs) with a density of 3 × 1010 cm-2 are self-assembly grown by metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) based on a precursor-alternate-admittance method. The growth mechanism is systematically studied, and consequently a 613-nm red QDs sample with an internal quantum efficiency (IQE) of 12% is demonstrated. Furthermore, when micro-LEDs based on these red InGaN QDs with a chip size of 1-20 µm are fabricated, an electroluminescence blueshift to yellow and green is observed. The 20-µm and 1-µm micro-LEDs show 4.92% and 1.78% external quantum efficiency (EQE) at 0.3 and 20 A/cm2, respectively. By introducing multiple quantum wells (MQWs) pre-strained layer beneath the QD layers, a 10-µm micro-LED with 638 nm emission wavelength is demonstrated, with a price of reduced EQE to 0.03% at 10 A/cm2.
Examination of the independent contribution of rheumatic heart disease and congestive cardiac failure to the development and outcome of melioidosis in Far North Queensland, tropical Australia
Authors: Davies Phoebe , Smith Simon , Wilcox Rob , Stewart James D. , Davis Tania J. , McKenna Kylie , Hanson Josh
Published: July 2022

Background

Patients with rheumatic heart disease (RHD) and congestive cardiac failure (CCF) are believed to have an increased risk of melioidosis and are thought to be more likely to die from the infection. This study was performed to confirm these findings in a region with a high incidence of all three conditions.

Principal findings

Between January 1998 and December 2021 there were 392 cases of melioidosis in Far North Queensland, tropical Australia; 200/392 (51.0%) identified as an Indigenous Australian, and 337/392 (86.0%) had a confirmed predisposing comorbidity that increased risk for the infection. Overall, 46/392 (11.7%) died before hospital discharge; the case fatality rate declining during the study period (p for trend = 0.001).

There were only 3/392 (0.8%) with confirmed RHD, all of whom had at least one other risk factor for melioidosis; all 3 survived to hospital discharge. Among the 200 Indigenous Australians in the cohort, 2 had confirmed RHD; not statistically greater than the prevalence of RHD in the local general Indigenous population (1.0% versus 1.2%, p = 1.0). RHD was present in only 1/193 (0.5%) cases of melioidosis diagnosed after October 2016, a period which coincided with prospective data collection. There were 26/392 (6.6%) with confirmed CCF, but all 26 had another traditional risk factor for melioidosis. Patients with CCF were more likely to also have chronic lung disease (OR (95% CI: 4.46 (1.93–10.31), p<0.001) and chronic kidney disease (odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval (CI): 2.98 (1.22–7.29), p = 0.01) than those who did not have CCF. Two patients with melioidosis and CCF died before hospital discharge; both were elderly (aged 81 and 91 years) and had significant comorbidity.

Conclusions

In this region of tropical Australia RHD and CCF do not appear to be independent risk factors for melioidosis and have limited prognostic utility.
Method for detecting acetylated PD-L1 in cell lysates by immunoprecipitation and western blot analysis
Authors: Middleton-Davis Frances , Davis Ashley , Middleton Kim
Published: July 2022

Lysine acetylation is an important regulatory post-translational modification (PTM) that occurs sub-stoichiometrically, often representing less than 1% of the target protein. This makes studying endogenous protein acetylation extremely challenging. Recent reports suggest that several post-translational modifications (PTMs), including lysine acetylation, play a major role in the regulation the programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1), a clinically important protein target. An enrichment step is necessary to enable identification of the acetylated species by either antibody or mass spectrometry-based detection methods. This report describes a robust lab protocol for the enrichment and detection of endogenous acetylated PD-L1 protein. A recently developed acetyl lysine affinity matrix was utilized to enrich >90% of acetylated PD-L1 species, from a variety of cell lines, spanning a fourteen-fold range of target protein levels. Western blot analysis, using a highly sensitive PD-L1 antibody and optimized transfer times, was used to determine that the endogenous level of acetylated PD-L1 is in the range of 0.02–0.07% of total PD-L1. As validation, we demonstrate that acetylation levels increase to 0.11–0.17% of total PD-L1 after a 4h treatment with the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor trichostatin A (TSA). The method described here is simple to perform in any lab equipped with tissue culture and western blot equipment.
An autonomous compartmental model for accelerating epidemics
Authors: Budanur Nazmi Burak , Hof Björn
Published: July 2022

In Fall 2020, several European countries reported rapid increases in COVID-19 cases along with growing estimates of the effective reproduction rates. Such an acceleration in epidemic spread is usually attributed to time-dependent effects, e.g. human travel, seasonal behavioral changes, mutations of the pathogen etc. In this case however the acceleration occurred when counter measures such as testing and contact tracing exceeded their capacity limit. Considering Austria as an example, here we show that this dynamics can be captured by a time-independent, i.e. autonomous, compartmental model that incorporates these capacity limits. In this model, the epidemic acceleration coincides with the exhaustion of mitigation efforts, resulting in an increasing fraction of undetected cases that drive the effective reproduction rate progressively higher. We demonstrate that standard models which does not include this effect necessarily result in a systematic underestimation of the effective reproduction rate.
La gentrificació atomitzada al barri del Cabanyal (València): del projecte de destrucció a la mercantilització de l’habitatge. Entre la regeneració i la vulnerabilitat
Authors: Grau Roda Marta
Published: July 2022

El barri del Cabanyal ha estat objecte d’un projecte urbanístic que pretenia enderrocar part de la seua trama urbana per prolongar una gran avinguda fins la platja. Després d’anys de degradació induïda i la suspensió del projecte en 2015, el barri està experimentant una revalorització creixent. En aquest article pretenem descobrir com s’ha desenvolupat el procés de gentrificació del Cabanyal en els últims 20 anys així com demostrar com a conseqüència la vulnerabilitat habitacional de part del veïnat. Per aconseguir-ho, hem realitzat una aproximació triangular a l’objecte, mitjançant l’ús de dades estadístiques i la producció d’informació qualitativa des de tres posicions socials diferents: l’agent gentrificador, la vulnerabilitat habitacional i l’experiència i resistència veïnal. El procés de gentrificació que travessa el barri és atomitzat, no donant-se una successió poblacional clara entre classes mitjanes i treballadores. L’aprovació imminent d’un nou pla urbanístic aprofundirà en la gentrificació del barri, reforçant la frontera urbana entre el centre històric i la façana marítima.
Integración de la perspectiva de género en el espacio público urbano de Alicante: percepción y experiencia de las mujeres en el desarrollo de la vida cotidiana
Authors: Vicente García Rocío
Published: July 2022

Al pensar el contexto urbano de la ciudad actual desde la perspectiva de género se pone el foco de atención sobre la experiencia y las vivencias que las mujeres tienen con el entorno urbano en el que residen y desempeñan la mayor parte de su día a día. Con el objetivo de conocer la percepción sobre el espacio urbano cotidiano que tienen las mujeres jóvenes en la ciudad de Alicante, se ha podido determinar qué elementos del barrio son los que las mujeres destacan y descubrir los significados, la valoración y la relevancia emocional que les otorgan. A través de una dinámica participativa se puso en práctica la técnica de los mapas perceptivos y el grupo de discusión con 5 mujeres de entre 25 a 35 años residentes en Alicante. Se ha utilizado el análisis temático para identificar patrones de temas y desvelar las experiencias de las participantes en su relación con el barrio. En conclusión, en el barrio se desarrollan las actividades de cuidados y compras básicas, las tareas productivas y las actividades propias se realizan fuera del entorno próximo. Las calles poco iluminadas o los espacios descuidados fomentan su percepción de inseguridad, que suele incrementarse en el contexto nocturno. La relación que las mujeres mantienen con los elementos del espacio urbano cotidiano afectan a la forma en que lo perciben y a la posibilidad de hacer o no uso de él. Por consiguiente, el espacio urbano no es neutro, ni homogéneo, ni universal.

Black Women’s Writing and Arts Today: A Tribute to Toni Morrison. Introduction
Beyond Literature: Toni Morrison’s Musical and Visual Legacy For Black Women Artists
Authors: Cobo-Piñero Rocío
Published: July 2022

The aim of this article is to analyze Toni Morrison’s understudied influence on music and visual art. In 1994 she established the Atelier Program in Princeton University as an interdisciplinary arts program that supported and nurtured multifaceted collaborations between artists and students from different disciplines. Moreover, her oeuvre shows her craft in a number of literary and artistic spheres that include writing novels, short stories, children’s books, literary criticism, song cycles and the script for a musical and a play. Keeping in mind Morrison’s multidimensional engagement with literature and the other arts, the first half of the article delves into the contemporary musical responses to the writer, placing special emphasis on black women musicians such as rapper Akua Naru, neo-soul vocalist India Arie, and singer and songwriter Janelle Monáe. Morrison’s intersectional representations of gender and race relations across the history of the U.S. have similarly inspired visual artists. The second half of the article explores the visual creations by U.S. black women artists Kara Walker, Lorna Simpson and Amy Sherald. Morrison’s manifold articulations of blackness and womanhood similarly resonate on the other side of the Atlantic through the work of Lubaina Himid, the first black British artist to win the prestigious Turner Prize in 2017.
Ancillary Trauma in the Novels of Toni Morrison
Authors: Stave Shirley A.
Published: July 2022

This article explores the concept of «ancillary trauma», through which a woman character who has not been subjected to racial violence becomes traumatized through the actions of a male character who has been either psychically or emotionally damaged as a result of racist actions. While Morrison sympathizes with what the male characters endure, the texts suggest that, in many cases, these male characters lash out against the women in their lives in an attempt to emulate white masculinity. These men know that they cannot act out against the white men who oppress them; they repress their feelings of shame and humiliation, choosing rather to assert their perceived dominance over those they feel they can control— the women and children in their homes. Some of the victims of ancillary trauma go on to wreak havoc in the lives of others, while the only defence against ancillary trauma appears to be the instilling of self-worth by parents who value their children as complete human beings.
Pornoterrorism: Antisocial Dykes in the Spanish Transfeminist Movement
Authors: Almar Liante Ana
Published: July 2022

This article examines Pornoterrorismo (2011), written by Spanish transfeminist poet and performer Diana J. Torres. In this book, the author mixes autobiographical details with personal reflections that have motivated her work and includes a selection of pornoterrorista poetry. Through a close reading of the narrative and poetic voice, this essay shows how Pornoterrorismo constructs a transfeminist discourse of radical negativity based on the discursive figure of the dyke as a fractured, monstrous subject that ultimately expands the realm of queer negativity. First, I focus on how Torres explores the symbolic potential of dyke sexual practices throughout her narrative in order to challenge some of the underlaying assumptions in the original formulations of the antisocial thesis in queer theory originally elaborated by Lee Edelman and Leo Bersani. I will show how the dyke practices that Torres stages and that she describes in detail reveal the gender bias that marks the original theorization of the antisocial turn in queer theory. Second, I propose queer terrorism as a radical antisocial politics of transfeminist negativity. Here, I argue that there is an affective connection between Torres’s performance with the material effects of terrorism that would be, precisely, that of provoking terror in a heteronormative society. Through the affective violence that is given off through her autobiographical account until the adoption of her artistic name, as well as a detailed analysis of her poem «Hijxs de puta» [Kids of Bitches], I will show how queer terrorism shapes the pornoterrorista answer to the attacks of a heteronormative society. Ultimately, this article aims to contribute to the study and delimitation of a transfeminist literary corpus written by its protagonists —texts that share a legitimization of life experience with a broadening, adaptation, or reinterpretation of feminist queer theory, situated in the contemporary Spanish context.
El lirismo en la narrativa de Belén Gopegui
Authors: Lizarte Fernández Mónica
Published: July 2022

Este artículo estudia el lirismo en las novelas de Belén Gopegui desde La escala de los mapas (1993) hasta Quédate este día y esta noche conmigo (2017) como el principal rasgo estilístico reconocido por la crítica. A pesar de la valoración positiva de su obra narrativa, faltan estudios académicos centrados en los aspectos formales de sus novelas. En el presente estudio, parto de las definiciones propuestas desde la Teoría de los géneros para establecer las estrategias narrativas que fomentan la subjetividad y la intensidad propias de la enunciación lírica. La subjetividad en las novelas se investiga a través de los géneros narrativos que exploran lo confidencial y lo íntimo, como la epístola y el diario, frecuentes en la narrativa de la autora. El estudio del ritmo se centra en los recursos retóricos basados en la repetición y la dimensión simbólica de la prosa se ocupa de las figuras literarias basadas en analogías. El estudio de las metáforas revela un uso particular de conceptos científicos que constituye un rasgo estilístico singular de la prosa de Gopegui. Por otra parte, el gusto por el aforismo evidencia el interés por lo didáctico y lo lírico. El registro de estos tres elementos básicos –géneros, figuras literarias y aforismos– se relaciona con temas recurrentes en su obra narrativa. Finalmente, se propone que el lirismo forma parte de la poética narrativa de la autora, ya que está al servicio de la intención didáctica y ética que distingue su obra y que suele identificarse con la novela social, ideológica o comprometida.

Angelica glauca is an important medicinal plant commonly distributed in Himalayan region of Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand region of India. Plant possesses immense medicinal potential and is utilized in traditional and modern medicine systems for the treatment of several aliments. The plant has become endangered due to unrestricted harvesting from natural resources, poor germination rate and lack of adequate commercial cultivation. Inspite of inherent medicinal potential there exist a wide research gap to analyze and validate biochemical activities along with isolation, purification and structural elucidation of secondary metabolites. Considering the present endangered status micropropagation studies are required not only with an objective of conservation of A. glauca, but also to felicitate mass propagation of the plant. Micropropagation as well as vegetative propagation processes are required to be optimized to develop protocol which are easily reproducible, efficient and can be simultaneously employed for commercial cultivation. Their also exits potential of analytical studies such as HPLC, FTIR, NMR, LC-MS (plant oil as well as plant extract) to provide complete biochemical profiling of the plant, as at present comparatively insufficient literature is available pertaining to biochemical and metabolic characteristics features and properties of the plant. The present review provides an insight into scientific studies conducted so far and research potential pertaining to biochemistry and medicinal properties of A. glauca.
Sociodemographic factors and living conditions of pediatric burn patients
Authors: Ozlu Ozer , Basaran Abdulkadir
Published: July 2022

Background  Children are the age group most vulnerable to burn injuries. Socioeconomic factors and the living environment, including the poor living conditions faced by refugees, may contribute to the occurrence of burns.
Objectives To compare living conditions and socioeconomic status potentially contributing to burn injury, characteristics, access to medical treatment, and integrated preventive measures between children of Turkish families and Syrian refugees with burn injuries.
Methods In this cross-sectional study, we recorded demographic and epidemiological features, mechanism of burn injury, as well as living- and socioeconomic conditions from interviews with parents of children hospitalized in the Burn Center of the University of Health Sciences Adana City Training and Research Hospital, Adana, Turkey. We classified patients into Turkish (host country) and Syrian (refugee) children.
Results We studied 42 Turkish and 31 Syrian children with burn injuries. The most common heat source was a stove (93.2%) and the most common place of the accident was the kitchen (45.2%). Maternal education (P=0.022), house ownership (P<0.001), number of rooms in the house (P=0.001), number of household members (P=0.007), number of persons per room (P<0.001), and place of heat source (P=0.009) differed significantly between Turkish and Syrian patients. Mean number of household members was 5.38 persons (SD 1.0) and 6.81 persons (SD 0.9) in Turkish and Syrian patients, respectively (P=0.007).
Conclusion Low socioeconomic status with overcrowded living conditions is prominent in both groups. Burns are likely to occur in the kitchen and incited by a stove. Preventive strategies are needed to educate families on the importance of simple safety measures in the house.

Published: July 2022

Background Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is one of the major bleeding events causing mortality and long-term morbidity in children with hemophilia, especially those who receive on-demand therapy.

Objective To evaluate the outcome of children with hemophilia after ICH receiving short-term intermittent prophylactic treatment.

Methods This retrospective study was conducted in the Department of Child Health, Dr. Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta. Children £18 years of age with hemophilia presenting with ICH between 2015-2020 were included. We recorded patients’ demographics, type and severity of hemophilia, the presence of factor VIII (FVIII) inhibitor, brain CT scan, treatment, and outcomes of these patients. Patients who received short-term intermittent prophylaxis using clotting factor concentrate (CFC) post-ICH episodes were observed for ICH recurrence.

Results There were 19 episodes of ICH experienced by 18 patients, consisting of 16 patients with hemophilia A and 2 with hemophilia B. Patients’ median age was 4 years (range 0-16 years). Hemophilia was classified as severe in 13 patients, moderate in 4 patients, and mild in 1 patient. Thirteen episodes were preceded by head trauma. The most common clinical manifestation was seizures (13.2%). The most common type of ICH was subdural hematoma. Two patients died and 2 patients had neurological sequelae during hospitalization. The median dose of short-term intermittent prophylaxis using CFC (n=16) was 20 IU/kg of FVIII twice a week and 30 IU/kg of FIX twice a week, for a median duration of 8 weeks (range 5-12 weeks). One patient who did not adhere to the prophylaxis regimen had recurrent ICH at a similar location 6 months after the first episode.  

Conclusion Our findings suggest that short-term intermittent prophylaxis is important to prevent the recurrence of ICH in children with hemophilia.

INTRODUCTION:

We aimed to combine the fibrosis (FIB)-4 score and fibroscan-derived liver stiffness (LS) into a single score (FIB-5) that predicts incident complications of portal hypertension (PH) in persons with compensated liver disease.

METHODS:

In this retrospective cohort study, we identified 5849 US veterans who underwent LS measurement from May 01, 2014 to June 30, 2019, and laboratory tests enabling FIB-4 calculation within 6 months of LS measurement. Patients were followed up from the LS measurement date until February 05, 2020, for incident complications of PH. We combined LS values and the individual components of the FIB-4 score (i.e. age, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and platelet count) using multivariable Cox proportional hazards modeling and the machine learning algorithm eXtreme gradient boosting to develop the C-FIB-5 and X-FIB-5 models, respectively. Models were internally validated using optimism-corrected measures.

RESULTS:

Among 5,849 patients, the mean age was 62.8 years, 95.9% were men, and the mean follow-up time was 2.14 ± 1.21 years. Within 3 years after LS measurement date, 116 (2.0%) patients developed complications of PH. The X-FIB-5 (area under the receiver operating characteristic [AUROC] 0.845) and C-FIB-5 scores (AUROC 0.868) demonstrated superior discrimination over LS (AUROC 0.688) and FIB-4 (AUROC 0.672) for predicting incident complications of PH. Both the X-FIB-5 and C-FIB-5 models demonstrated higher classification accuracy across all sensitivity cutoffs when compared with LS or FIB-4 alone.

DISCUSSION:

We combined LS and the individual components of the FIB-4 into a single scoring system (FIB-5, www.fib5.net), which can help identify patients with compensated liver disease at risk of developing complications of PH.
Sind mehr Solarmodule immer besser?: Bewertung des kommunalen Kohlenstoffausstoßes

Published: July 2022

Are more solar panels always better in terms of carbon influence of a local energy community, and what is the impact of energy sufficiency? The answer is simple when the national electrical grid is taken as an infinite source of storage. However, this answer becomes more uncertain if we consider that exporting power to a larger grid at the national scale is not a desired option. Although this is a conservative hypothesis, it is considered for technical and social reasons. In doing so, load profiles become a key to evaluating the carbon impact of hybrid systems with solar panels plus storage units. To summarize the impact of any load profiles on the optimal sizing of solar panels, we propose a novel index denoted ‘natural self-sufficiency’. Our results show that not only reducing energy demand but also being more flexible significantly affects the carbon emissions related to solar panels.
Co-Benefits als Katalysatoren für Suffizienzpolitik?: Wie Bürger*innen in Beteiligungsverfahren Suffizienz begründen
Authors: Lage Jonas , Graef Marie
Published: July 2022

Der Artikel untersucht, welche suffizienzorientierten Maßnahmen sich Bürger*innen im Rahmen partizipativer Prozesse auf kommunaler Ebene wünschen und wie sie diese begründen. Neben der ökologischen Wirkung werden zahlreiche Co-Benefits in den Bereichen Gesundheit, Gemeinschaft und Teilhabe sowie Wirtschaftlichkeit identifiziert. Aufgrund dieser Begründungszusammenhänge wurden auch Maßnahmen als Zugewinn für die Lebensqualität interpretiert, die von Gegner*innen häufig als ‚Verzicht‘ abgewertet werden. Der Beitrag argumentiert, dass eine Orientierung an den identifizierten Co-Benefits die Legitimation von Suffizienzmaßnahmen steigern kann. Grundlage der qualitativen Dokumentenanalyse sind Dokumentationen aus 15 Beteiligungsprozessen des bundesweiten Wettbewerbs ‚Zukunftsstadt 2030‘, in dem Kommunen Konzepte für ihre nachhaltige Entwicklung erarbeitetet haben.
Онлайн-сообщества трудовых мигрантов в России и Южной Корее как цепочки ритуалов взаимодействия
Authors: Ни Максим Леонидович
Published: July 2022

В статье делается попытка переопределения термина «сообщество» применительно к исследованиям площадок группового общения транснациональных мигрантов в интернете. Сегодня платформы виртуальных социальных сетей позволяют создавать группы общения, объединяющие людей с общими интересами, но не обязательно знакомых друг с другом. В исследовательской литературе для анализа такого рода феноменов широкое распространение получило понятие «сообщество». Однако насколько такое решение является правомерным? Всегда ли онлайн-группы являются сообществами? Какие механизмы обеспечивают их активность? Для ответа на данные вопросы автор проводит концептуальный анализ различных антропологических и социологических моделей сообщества в контексте их приложения к онлайн-среде. На основании проведенного анализа формулируется определение сообщества как состояния максимальной солидаризации группы, возникающей в фокусированных коллективных ритуалах взаимодействия. В качестве теоретико-методологического основания статьи выступает теория ритуалов взаимодействия Рэндалла Коллинза, которая позволяет определить цепочки успешных ритуалов как ключевой механизм, лежащий в основе устойчивой групповой активности. Успешные ритуалы способствуют производству и/или воспроизводству символов идентичности группы и эмоциональной энергии (готовности вступать в схожие взаимодействия). Выработанный способ концептуализации применяется к исследованию двух русскоязычных Facebook-групп (деятельность социальной сети запрещена на территории РФ), объединяющих трудовых мигрантов из стран СНГ в Южной Корее и из стран Средней Азии в России. Проведенный анализ демонстрирует, что воспроизводство активности онлайн-групп в значительной степени опирается на эмоционально насыщенные символы, даже если основная часть сообщений сосредоточена вокруг сугубо инструментальных целей (таких как поиск вакансий). Тем не менее различия в культурном капитале могут препятствовать возникновению групповой солидарности, даже если участники номинально разделяют общие эмоции по отношению к одному и тому же объекту внимания.
