O LUGAR DA LITERATURA MONÁSTICA FEMININA NO CÂNONE BARROCO PORTUGUÊS
Authors: PETRESCU Cristina
Published: December 2021

Women’s Monastic Writing within the Portuguese Baroque Canon. This article aims to approach Portuguese female monastic literature of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in terms of its relationship with the Baroque literary canon. Shaped at the border that separates voice and silence, the visible and the spiritual universe, the cult of moderation and the desire to assert, this literature outlined a new type of discourse, which hinted at the intense conflict between suppression and authority, which, in turn, gave rise to a permanent dialogue between the feminine ethos, the controversial character of the Baroque and the always oscillating essence of the canon. We will show, that, during the last centuries, the works of some famous female writers, such as Sóror Maria do Céu, Sóror Violante do Céu and Sóror Madalena da Glória, or of other female authors who remained in the shadows, have been differently and unequally absorbed by literary critics and historians and by great anthologists. Their writings have not ceased to be represented as preferential places of dispute, of the uninterrupted dialogue between silence and affirmation, between center and margin, which generally regulates the literary canon.
REZUMAT. Literatura monastică feminină în cadrul canonului baroc portughez. Acest articol își propune să abordeze literatură monastică feminină portugheză a secolelor XVII-XVIII prin prisma relației cu canonul literar baroc. Plăsmuită la granița dintre glas și tăcere, dintre universul vizibil și cel spiritual, dintre cultul moderației și dorința de afirmare, această literatură a conturat un nou tip de discurs, ce a lăsat să se întrevadă intensul conflict dintre suprimare și autoritate care, la rândul său, a dat naștere unui permanent dialog între ethosul feminin, caracterul controversat al barocului și esența mereu oscilantă a canonului. Vom arăta că, pe parcursul ultimelor secole, operele unor scriitoare de renume, ca Sóror Maria do Céu, Sóror Violante do Céu și Sóror Madalena da Glória, sau ale unor autoare ce au rămas în umbră, au fost absorbite în mod diferit și inegal de criticii și istoricii literari și de marii antologiști. Scrierile lor nu au încetat și vor continua, cel mai probabil, să fie reprezentate ca locuri preferențiale ale disputei, ale neîntreruptului dialog dintre tăcere și afirmare, dintre centru și margine, ce reglementează, în genere, canonul literar.

“STELELE ȘI LALELELE”: SAGGIO DI MICROMONOGRAFIA STORICO DESCRITTIVA DI UNA CLASSE FLESSIVA DELLA LINGUA ROMENA (II)
Authors: MERLO Roberto
Published: December 2021

“Stelele și Lalelele”: Micromonography of an Inflectional Class in the Romanian Language (II). This article is part of a series aimed at reconstructing the history, and discussing the current state of what has been considered, from a Romance perspective, a peculiarity of Romanian language: the existence of an inflectional class of feminine nouns ending in tonic vowel (in short: f√v́‑Ø), which form the plural with the addition of the ‑le morpheme. The present paper, the second in the series, discusses some morphological traits of f√v́‑Ø on the basis of a lexicographical corpus of contemporary standard Romanian: division in subclasses, internal morphological structure of its members (primitive and derivatives nouns, in particular diminutives, internal formations), and morphological variability.

Acest articol face parte dintr‑o serie care vizează discutarea istoriei și stării actuale a ceea ce s-a considerat, din perspectivă romanică, o particularitate a limbii române: existența unei clase flexionare de substantive feminine în vocală accentuată (pe scurt: f√v́‑Ø), care formează genitiv-dativul singular și pluralul prin adăugarea morfemului ‑le. Prezentul articol, al doilea al seriei, discută câteva aspecte morfologice ale acestei clase pe baza unui corpus lexicografic de română contemporană standard: împărțirea ei în subclase, structura morfologică internă a substantivelor care fac parte din această clasă (substantive primitive și derivate, mai ales diminutive; formațiuni interne) și variabilitatea lor morfologică.

THE ROLE OF MYTHS IN JAPANESE CALLIGRAPHY’S INTERPRETATIVE PROCESS
Authors: TUDORICĂ Ioana-Ciliana
Published: December 2021

The Role of Myths in Japanese Calligraphy’s Interpretative Process. This article illustrates the role of myths in the interpretative process of calligraphic works. Being considerably different from Western calligraphy, Japanese calligraphy (shodō) may seem at times visually similar to abstract art. However, calligraphic works – and shodō as art – are rich in meaning and abundant of myths. Focusing on both linguistic and visual elements of calligraphy, the article depicts how myths can be identified in a calligraphic work and how they provide a better understanding of the particularities of shodō. In order to illustrate how myths uncover new layers of meaning, the article incorporates an analysis of a calligraphic work created by Rodica Frențiu, underlining the process of accessing the transcendent meaning.
REZUMAT. Rolul miturilor în procesul interpretativ al caligrafiei japoneze. Acest articol ilustrează rolul miturilor în procesul interpretativ al operelor caligrafice. Fiind considerabil diferită față de caligrafia occidentală, caligrafia japoneză (shodō) poate părea uneori similară vizual cu arta abstractă. Cu toate acestea, operele caligrafice – și shodō ca artă – sunt bogate în semnificații și mituri. Accentuând atât elementele lingvistice, cât și elementele vizuale ale caligrafiei, articolul descrie modul în care miturile pot fi identificate într-o lucrare caligrafică și modul în care acestea oferă o mai bună înțelegere a particularităților shodō. Pentru a ilustra felul în care miturile relevă noi niveluri de sens, articolul încorporează analiza unei opere caligrafice create de Rodica Frențiu, subliniind procesul de accesare a sensului transcendent.

Followership Resilience in Administrative Structures: A New Perspective
Authors:   Associate professor, Department of Business Development and Innovations, Faculty of Business and Management, University of Ruse, Ruse, Bulgaria, KOTSEV Emil
Published: December 2021

The study explores followership resilience in three Bulgarian municipalities. Its purpose is twofold: first, to draw the attention of researchers and managers on followership resilience, and second, to explore proactivity and trust as factors of followership re­silience in administrative structures. The study is based on a qualitative approach, and uses a combi­nation of two research strategies – exploratory and descriptive. Data is collected through semi-struc­tured interviews with a sample of 35 municipal em­ployees (10.2% from the general population). Follow­ership resilience is analyzed by means of followers’ psychological readiness to participate in the deci­sion-making process and to trust superiors. Four types of followers are identified and strengths and weaknesses of each type are discussed. The prefer­ence of the majority of interviewees (69%) to follow instructions and not to trust leaders is interpreted. It is concluded that the formula for successful fol­lowership resilience in terms of proactivity and trust involves achieving balance and coherence.
Provisiones, regalos, cohechos y préstamos: la Informaçion Original de 1588 y la defensa de la autoridad virreinal en el Perú del siglo XVI
Authors: Costa Vigo L. Miguel
Published: December 2021

Los estudios en torno a la autoridad de los virreyes en América, sus conflictos a nivel local, las acusaciones de mal gobierno y los mecanismos para controlar su desempeño han dado nuevas luces sobre la naturaleza del orden político virreinal, los alcances y límites del poder monárquico y la dinámica de constante negociación puesta. Este artículo analiza la Informaçión Original llevada a cabo en 1588 por el conde del Villar, virrey del Perú, que más allá de una auto fiscalización, fue una estrategia para recomponer su autoridad e imagen como actor político legítimo en el escenario peruano.
Otra mirada, nuevos caminos: dinámicas de poder y corrupción a través de la residencia de Melchor de Navarra y Rocafull, virrey del Perú (1681-1689)
Authors: Gálvez Martín Rubén
Published: December 2021

El presente texto analiza en su totalidad y contexto el juicio de residencia incoado al virrey Melchor de Navarra. Tal enfoque analítico constata cómo la lista de cargos y sucesivas sentencias no constituyen un fiel reflejo de su gestión, ni  de las supuestas faltas que pudo cometer. Es más, manifiesta una pugna latente con el juez residenciador, junto a la movilización de todo tipo de recursos para decantar a su favor un proceso inicialmente adverso, bien por cauces legales, bien por otros que traspasaron la legalidad o lo moralmente aceptado. De este modo, los resultados obtenidos permiten esbozar una lectura más amplia, compleja y sutil del propio procedimiento, al mismo tiempo que del accionar y de las potenciales prácticas ilícitas de este vicesoberano rebatiendo formulaciones hasta ahora sostenidas.

La cortesía del despojo: la infiltración del virrey Castellar en el cabildo de Lima, 1674-1678
Authors: Suárez Espinosa Margarita María
Published: December 2021

El gobierno del virrey conde de Castellar causó mucho malestar entre diversos sectores de la élite de poder del virreinato del Perú, pero no en todos por igual. El objetivo de este artículo será demostrar que la entrada del virrey Castellar estuvo acompañada de un claro mensaje de sometimiento hacia los súbditos peruanos. Respaldado por un cortesano peruano, Francisco Ruiz Lozano, y por circuitos previamente delineados, el virrey se infiltró en los negocios del municipio, como el del abasto de la carne, sin encontrar resistencia por parte del cabildo. Detrás de ello se hallaba su potestad de repartir cargos, y la posibilidad de aumentar los ingresos y el prestigio de los regidores.
Felipe III, el Archiduque Alberto y Ambrosio Spínola: relaciones de poder en Flandes.
Authors: Retortillo Atienza Asunción
Published: December 2021

Las dudas de Felipe III sobre el gobierno ejercido por el archiduque en Bruselas, las inseguridades de este con respecto a su papel al frente del ejército español que se enfrentaba a los rebeldes de las Provincias Unidas y las ansias de Ambrosio Spínola por adquirir honra y reputación configuraron las sinergias necesarias para establecer las relaciones de poder en Flandes entre 1604 y 1621. Esta forma de acción política a tres bandas nos permitirá entender mejor cómo el rey de España consiguió imponer su autoridad en un Estado del que no era soberano; el modo en que el archiduque Alberto logró mantener la honra y gobernar bajo un halo de dignidad e independencia; y, por último, hasta qué punto la figura y el trabajo desarrollado por Ambrosio fue relevante hasta convertirse en el factotum de los Países Bajos españoles.
Virreyes interinos del Perú: la institucionalización de un nuevo sistema de nombramiento en el siglo XVIII: los pliegos de providencia
Authors: Giménez Carrillo Domingo Marcos
Published: December 2021

Durante los siglos XVI y XVII la Monarquía Hispánica encontró dificultades para desempeñar el gobierno de sus dominios americanos en los periodos de vacancia del virrey titular. Por esta razón, en los albores del siglo XVIII, implantó un sistema de nombramiento de vicesoberanos interinos conocido con el nombre de pliegos de providencia o de mortaja. Este mecanismo de designación, enmarcado dentro de una serie de reformas borbónicas aplicadas en la primera década de la centuria ilustrada, pretendía, entre otros cometidos, evitar que el poder virreinal durante los interinatos lo ejerciera la “audiencia gobernadora”. Al respecto, en esta investigación, realizamos un estudio sobre este ambicioso sistema de nombramiento, centrado en el virreinato del Perú, desde su génesis y diseños iniciales hasta su implementación.
Del escrito al hecho. Algunas reflexiones sobre el uso del Spanish Journal of lady Holland como fuente histórica
Authors: Ávila Martínez María Teresa
Published: December 2021

A principios del siglo XX, los diarios de lady Holland fueron publicados por el conde de Ilcester que puso en valor el testimonio de esta noble inglesa, testigo excepcional del ocaso del Antiguo Régimen. Sin embargo, la intervención del editor modificó sustancialmente la finalidad original de la obra que, a la luz de nuevas corrientes históricas como la historia de género, adquiere una significación distinta. Ello se podrá comprobar con el análisis de su escrito publicado con el título de Spanish Journal (1910) basado en las anotaciones realizadas por la diarista durante sus viajes a España en los primeros años del siglo XIX.
El Partito comunista italiano, su herencia política y la identidad de la izquierda italiana
Authors: Possieri Andrea
Published: December 2021

El 21 de enero de 2021 se celebró el centenario del nacimiento del Partito comunista italiano. ¿Cuáles son los motivos por los cuales, aún hoy, se reflexiona acerca de la historia del Pci? En primer lugar porque el Pci ha sido el partido comunista más grande del mundo occidental entre 1945 y 1989. En segundo lugar porque el Pci ha sido un partido que ha tenido algunas características originales respecto a los otros Partidos comunistas occidentales. Por último, porque su herencia ha tenido influencia por muchos años en la identidad de la izquierda italiana, después de 1989. El Partito comunista italiano ha dejado una profunda herencia cultural en el sistema político italiano.
La opinión cuasi–pública en los periódicos estadounidenses sobre Chile, Perú y Bolivia durante la fase final de las conferencias de Washington (1922)
Authors: Soto Lara José Julián , Chávez Zúñiga Pablo Sebastián
Published: December 2021

Se examinan las conferencias de Washington, donde Chile y Perú intentaron resolver el conflicto de Tacna y Arica, centrándose en la cobertura dada por la prensa estadounidense en su fase final. El objetivo es analizar la construcción de imágenes sobre los actores estatales del proceso: Chile, Perú, Bolivia y Estados Unidos. La hipótesis sugiere que dicha fabricación se fundamentó en la apreciación mediática de que Chile y Perú tuvieron dificultades para coordinar un arreglo, favoreciendo la emergencia de un arbitraje estadounidense. La metodología escogida fue mixta, centrándose en los aspectos cuantitativos y cualitativos de las fuentes hemerográficas. Las conclusiones señalan que éstas permiten enriquecer el relato histórico de las conferencias, destacando la dimensión representativa de los diplomáticos como personificaciones de sus Estados, y detectando la función divulgadora del ethos de los países estudiados por parte del actante prensa.
Reajustes internos dentro de la élite económica de Granada durante la modernización autoritaria (1923-1930).
Authors: Hidalgo Álvarez Roque , Morente Muñoz Carmen , Pérez Serrano Julio
Published: December 2021

La dictadura de Primo de Rivera durante el período final del reinado de Alfonso XIII aceleró los reajustes internos que la élite económica granadina venía experimentando desde finales del siglo XIX. Los principales contribuyentes de la ciudad pasaron de ser agrarios a comerciantes, industriales y profesionales médicos. La política fiscal aplicada por José Calvo Sotelo desde el Ministerio de Hacienda favoreció esos cambios. La burguesía industrial y comercial, clase emergente desde finales del siglo XIX, vió reforzado su papel hegemónico dentro del bloque de poder. Las dinámicas económicas, sin embargo, se vieron frenadas por la organización tribal de la élite económica.
Un análisis lingüístico de los ideófonos coreanos en un fragmento de un cuento de Park Min-Gyu
Authors: Bahón Arnaiz Cristina
Published: December 2021

Los ideófonos han recibido insuficiente atención en las lenguas románicas, entre ellas el español. No sólo han pasado inadvertidos, sino que han sido calificados como palabras periféricas, irrelevantes, anecdóticas o semánticamente insignificantes. En las últimas décadas, gracias al auge de los mangas o los webtoons, ha crecido el interés por las  onomatopeyas. Sin embargo, los estudios en español relacionados con los ideófonos coreanos y las onomatopeyas son aún limitados. Este artículo, centrado en los ideófonos coreanos, pretende demostrar la relevancia de estos elementos lingüísticos en coreano, una lengua claramente ideofónica. Para ello, se explican las características lingüísticas de los ideófonos en este idioma y se realiza el análisis de un fragmento con 11 ideófonos y dos onomatopeyas escrito por Park Min-Gyu, uno de los escritores más destacados de la literatura contemporánea coreana.

Published: December 2021

Frédéric Engel (1981:24), el pionero de los estudios del Precerámico en el Perú, argumentó que la distribución de los sitios arqueológicos durante el Holoceno temprano fue determinada por “la capacidad de las lomas” –oasis estacionales producidos por la humedad oceánica que están presentes a lo largo de la costa del Perú– una proposición que aún se encuentra en debate. Nosotros evaluaremos las ideas de Engel basándonos en datos de sitios arqueológicos del Precerámico Medio (hasta 4500 años cal AP) ubicados dentro y cerca de las lomas de la costa sur del Perú.
Dieta humana, movilidad y tecnología en un contexto mortuorio del valle del Atuel: el registro de Cañada Seca-1 (San Rafael, Mendoza)

Published: December 2021

Este trabajo tiene como objetivo caracterizar el sitio Cañada Seca-1, un entierro múltiple (NMI=24) localizado en el valle del Atuel y fechado en ca. 1500 años AP, a través de la integración de diferentes líneas de evidencia. A partir de este registro se discuten las interpretaciones en torno a la presencia de cultígenos y sus implicancias para la subsistencia humana en un área caracterizada tradicionalmente como el límite de la dispersión agrícola sudamericana, ca. 2200 años AP. Los resultados destacan que los individuos inhumados en el sitio no habrían desarrollado una estrategia fundamentalmente agrícola, aunque el maíz formó parte de su dieta. Además, la nueva información sobre los comportamientos mortuorios en la zona del valle del Atuel, ofrece evidencias tanto sobre movilidad como sobre el uso de tecnologías utilitarias (líticas) y no utilitarias (ornamentos líticos y malacológicos) que trascendieron la vida cotidiana y los acompañaron en la muerte.
Un eslabón en el recorrido estético de Stravinsky: la Suite Italiana
Authors: Luis Moreno Beatriz
Published: December 2021

Stravinsky se erige como una de las figuras más importantes de la música del siglo XX, y es también uno de los compositores que más importancia le ha concedido al pensamiento estético y filosófico en materia musical. Se ha perseguido dar una explicación más detallada a preguntas relacionadas con la naturaleza del fenómeno musical recogidas en sus libros, así como a otros aspectos diferentes que trata el compositor en relación con la figura del intérprete o del compositor director de sus propias obras. Hemos llevado la investigación a un ámbito más práctico, a través de un análisis principalmente de recursos y materiales, así como diferencias entre las partituras del ballet Pulcinella y de la Suite Italiana.
El món el 2022: deu temes que marcaran l’agenda internacional
Authors:   investigador sènior, CIDOB (coordinador i editor), Soler i Lecha Eduard
Published: December 2021

El 2022 és un any per reavaluar els límits de la desigualtat, de les mesures restrictives, dels plans d’estímul, de les tensions geopolítiques, o de la confiança en les institucions. La recuperació econòmica i anímica serà desigual i estarà condicionada a possibles sobresalts en la rivalitat entre grans potències, l’encariment de preus i la plena superació de la pandèmia. El món no té un problema de diagnòstic. Es reconeix la necessitat i la urgència de les transicions socioeconòmiques, tecnològiques i climàtiques en curs. El debat se centra a saber quin tipus de lideratge està més ben preparat o gaudeix de més legitimitat per pilotar els canvis, i com fer aquest procés amb els costos socials més baixos possibles, i on és el llindar d’una possible irreversibilitat. Els lideratges internacionals es reexaminaran a través d’eleccions clau com les de França, el Brasil, Hongria, les midterm als EUA, o el XX Congrés Nacional del Partit Comunista de la Xina. Quin tipus d’idees, persones i models gaudiran de més suport i legitimitat per a transitar cap al món postpandèmic?
The world in 2022: ten issues that will shape the international agenda
Authors:   Senior Research Fellow, CIDOB (coordinated and edited), Soler i Lecha Eduard
Published: December 2021

2022 will be a year for re-evaluating the limits of inequality, restrictive measures, the stimulus plans, geopolitical tensions, or trust in institutions. The economic and emotional recovery will be uneven and will be conditioned to distresses in the rivalry between great powers, price increases and the full overcoming of the pandemic. The world does not have a problem of diagnosis. The necessity and urgency of the ongoing socio-economic, technological and climate transitions are well-known. Where there is debate, it concerns which type of leadership is best equipped or has most legitimacy to pilot this change, how the process should be conducted to ensure the lowest possible social costs and where the point of no return lies. 2022 is a year when international leaderships face re-examination in key elections in places such as France, Brazil, Hungary, the US (midterms) and at the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. Which kinds of ideas, people and models will enjoy most support and legitimacy?
DIAGNOSTIC ACCURACY OF INTERLIMB DIFFERENCES OF ULTRASONOGRAPHIC SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE THICKNESS MEASUREMENTS IN BREAST CANCER-RELATED ARM LYMPHEDEMA
Authors: Giray E , Yagcl I
Published: December 2021

Use of ultrasound as an assessment technique for lymphedema has been increasing with measurement of subcutaneous tissue thickness used for both assessment and treatment outcome. Reliability of ultrasound examination of the thickness of the skin and subcutaneous tissue have been studied. However, interlimb differences of ultrasonographic subcutaneous tissue thickness have not been explored. This study aimed to establish diagnostic accuracy of interlimb differences of ultrasonographic subcutaneous tissue thickness measurements in breast cancer-related arm lymphedema. We compared the truncated cone method by using circumference measurements and interlimb differences of ultrasonographic subcutaneous tissue thickness measurements to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of interlimb differences of ultrasonographic subcutaneous tissue thickness measurements. Sensitivity, specificity, receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and area under the curve (AUC) were used. Analysis of ROC curves yielded area under the curve (AUC) of 0.804 (p=0.002). ROC analysis identified 0.17cm as the cut-point for differentiating between tissue with and without lymphedema resulting in a sensitivity of 79.3% and specificity of 69.2%.
IMPACT OF BODY FAT AND OBESITY ON TISSUE DIELECTRIC CONSTANT (TDC) AS A METHOD TO ASSESS BREAST CANCER TREATMENT-RELATED LYMPHEDEMA (BCRL)
Authors: Mayrovitz H
Published: December 2021

Obesity is linked to the risk of breast cancer and treatment-related lymphedema (BCRL). Thus, knowledge of how obesity, or more specifically total body fat percentage (TBF) and body mass index (BMI), affect measurements that are used to detect or track lymphedema is clinically important. Tissue dielectric constant (TDC) is one measure used to help characterize lymphedema features, detect its presence, and assess treatment-related changes. The goal of this research was to determine the extent to which TDC values depend on TBF and BMI. TDC was measured on both forearms (2.5mm depth) in 250 women (18-72 years) along with TBF (impedance, 50KHz). TBF was 12.2%-54.4% (median=29.3%) and BMI was 14.7Kg/m2-44.3 Kg/m2 (median=22.6 Kg/m2). TDC values and interarm ratios were compared between subgroups that had TBF and BMI values in lower vs. upper quartiles. Subjects in the upper quartile had slightly lower TDC values (1.3 TDC units, p <0.01) that was at most a 5% differential. Contrastingly, TDC interarm ratios were not dependent on TBF or BMI levels. These findings suggest that when tracking lymphedema changes using the TDC method, treatment-related or temporal changes in a woman’s TBF or BMI are unlikely to significantly impact TDC values or their inter-arm ratios.
INCREASED TRAFFICKING OF MESENTERIC LYMPH-DERIVED γδ T CELLS INTO INTESTINAL MUCOSA IS ASSOCIATED WITH GUT INJURY AFTER INTESTINAL ISCHEMIA-REPERFUSION IN RATS
Authors: Yang J , Shen Y , Wu RQ , Zhu H , Jin Y , Yang H
Published: December 2021

We sought to investigate the effects of mesenteric lymph-derived γδ T cells trafficking into intestinal mucosa on gut injury after intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (IIR). γδ T cells were separated from mesenteric lymph and then infused into the femoral vein of rats after the γδ T cells were labeled with 51Cr. Migration of γδ T cells in vivo across the intestinal mucosa was determined by γ-counter. Meanwhile, TNF-α activity and endotoxin concentration in mesenteric lymph were detected. The population of γδ T cells of Peyer's patches in the small intestines was analyzed by immunofluorescence double staining methods and flow cytometry. After IIR injury, the mean optical density value (MOD) and population of γδ T cells in Peyer's patches of the gut and migration of 51Cr-γδ T cells across the intestinal mucosa were significantly increased, which had highly positive correlations to degree of intestinal injury, TNF-α levels and endotoxin concentration in mesenteric lymph after reperfusion. The increased population of γδ T cells derived from mesenteric lymph trafficking into the intestinal mucosa might promote the small intestinal injury after IIR.
INCIDENCE OF BREAST LYMPHEDEMA AND PREDICTORS OF ITS DEVELOPMENT IN PATIENTS RECEIVING WHOLE BREAST RADIATION THERAPY AFTER BREAST-CONSERVATION SURGERY

Published: December 2021

One common adverse effect following breast-conservation surgery and adjuvant radiation is lymphedema. While lymphedema of the arm has been well-characterized, there has been less investigation into lymphedema of the breast. We sought to characterize rates of breast lymphedema (BLE) in women with early-stage breast cancer and identify potential predictors in its development. Two hundred and thirty consecutive patients treated with lumpectomy and adjuvant whole breast radiation therapy (WBRT) from January 2016 - June 2017 were included. All patients were seen in our lymphedema monitoring clinic for baseline and at least one follow-up lymphedema measurement. BLE grades were assigned by trained nurses in the lymphedema clinic. Data regarding patient demographic and treatment factors were extracted from the electronic medical record. Comparisons between groups were made using Chi-Square analysis performed in SAS. The median age of the sample was 62 (range 31-90). Median follow-up from surgery was 15.3 months. Forty-three patients were diagnosed with lymphedema of the breast (18.7%). Rates of grade 1 and 2 BLE were 93% and 7%, respectively; there were no cases of severe lymphedema. Sixty-three percent of cases resolved by last follow-up with treatment recommendations. There was no association between development of BLE and patient factors investigated, including age, T stage, radiation dose and fractionation, lymph node biopsy, number of lymph nodes removed, development of arm lymphedema, and use of chemotherapy. Tumor subtype was found to be significant (P = 0.04) and there was a trend towards significance for receipt of trastuzumab (P = 0.09). BLE is a distinct entity from arm lymphedema and is a common finding in women treated with breast-conserving surgery and adjuvant WBRT. It is a generally mild and self-limiting process. There were no treatment or patient-related factors that correlated with increased risk of lymphedema development in our sample except for HER-2 positive disease and receipt of trastuzamab.

SVEP1, also known as Polydom, is a large extracellular mosaic protein with functions in protein interactions and adhesion. Since Svep1 knockout animals show severe edema and lymphatic system malformations, the aim of this study is to evaluate the presence of SVEP1 variants in patients with lymphedema. We analyzed DNA from 246 lymphedema patients for variants in known lymphedema genes, 235 of whom tested negative and underwent a second testing for new candidate genes, including SVEP1, as reported here. We found three samples with rare heterozygous missense single-nucleotide variants in the SVEP1 gene. In one family, healthy members were found to carry the same variants and reported some subclinical edema. Based on our findings and a review of the literature, we propose SVEP1 as a candidate gene that should be sequenced in patients with lymphatic malformations, with or without lymphedema, in order to investigate and add evidence on its possible involvement in the development of lymphedema.

This study aimed to determine the growth and carcass traits of Anadolu-T broiler pure lines, which were kept breeding and selection over five generations from 2017 to 2021, in comparison with a commercial hybrid. After the selection process, pure lines (A1, A2, A3, B1, B2) and commercial hybrid (Ross-308) eggs were incubated and 120 female-male chicks were produced from each genotype in each generation. The broiler chickens were reared in broiler production standards for 6 weeks and carcass traits were determined by slaughtering at the end of this period. In this study, growth traits such as body weight (BW), feed conversion ratio (FCR), and livability; breast and thigh meat ratio were considered as carcass traits. The highest average BW (2961.2 to 3481.2 g) and best FCR (1.43 to 1.60) at 6 weeks of age over the five generations occurred in Ross-308 commercial hybrids; followed by sire (BW: 2633.8 to 3180.2 g; FCR: 1.65 to 1.77), dam lines (BW: 2307.7 to 2698.5 g; FCR: 1.65 to 1.78), respectively. Although there were some numerical differences in livability between generations in pure lines, it was generally at a similar level (96-100%) with commercial hybrids. The breast ratio was lower than commercial hybrid in both dam and sire lines, but it was determined that the thigh ratio was higher in pure lines. The fact that pure lines have a short selection history of five generations does not allow for detailed evaluation. We expect that the use of individual feed efficiency test in dam and sire lines, and additionally using body weight and breast

This study was carried out to determine the growth and reproductive performance of Karayaka sheep in Amasya province within the scope of National Animal Breeding Project. Data were collected from 17529 Karayaka lambs of 20120 Karayaka sheep which were born during 2012 to 2015 birth season. In this study, the live weights, survival rates of the lambs in various periods and reproductive traits of Karayaka ewes were investigated. In this study, the live weights, daily live weight gain, survival rates (90th day) and reproductive traits of Karayaka ewes were investigated. The averages of reproductive traits of Karayaka sheep such as infertility, fertility, twins, fecundity, litter size and survival rate were 13.8%, 86.2%, 7.20%, 0.867, 1.01 and 89.0% respectively. The effects of year, sex and type of birth on the birth weights and the live weights of 90 days (weaning) of Karayaka lambs were found to be significant. Daily live weight gain was affected only by year and sex.

The aim of this study is to model the system that measures soil hydraulic conductivity using Programmable Logic Control (PLC), pressure transducer and motor pump in workshop conditions.
In the study, a plastic pipe with a length of 2 m and a diameter of 100 was prepared to simulate an auger hole. In addition, a set was created using PLC and its module. In the hydraulic conductivity measurement system, the auger hole method (the bottom of the auger hole is above the impermeable layer) is used. Using the auger-hole equation, the system’s program was written in CODESYS-ST language and uploaded to the PLC. As a result of the regression analysis between the water head in the pipe (auger-hole) measured by hand (ESY) and PLC (PLCSY), an equation as PLCSY = 0,99ESY + 1,69 (R² = 1) was obtained and the Mean Absolute Percent Error (MAPE) of these two data sets was calculated as 0,41%. Each hydraulic conductivity measurement time is approximately 5, 6 and 8 minutes when the valve is fully open and half open and one-third open. The distance from the pipe base to the static level (d, cm) was measured as averages of 122.83, 123.91 and 123.7 cm on, respectively. In the first quarter section, the average times taken for the water level to rise from 20 to 25, 25 to 30, 30 to 35 and 35 to 40 was determined as 4.4, 6.0 and 26.1 seconds, respectively. The hydraulic conductivity values were calculated as 18.6, 13.2 and 3.1 cm/hour at the valve openings, respectively. The measured data is saved on an SD card. All of these processes are done automatically. The expectation that this system will measure hydraulic conductivity accurately, economically and quickly in field conditions is high and should be tested in field conditions.

Published: December 2021

Salmonella is known as one of the main factors of food-borne gastroenteritis, and with this feature, it poses a great risk in terms of public health and economic losses. It is estimated that of the approximately 94 million cases of salmonellosis occurring in the world each year (about 85 percent of these are food-borne), an average of 150,000 result in death. Current social trends highlight the important health benefits of fresh produce in our daily diet. As an irony; Uncooked consumption of fresh herbal products is increasingly identified as a source of transmission for pathogens of intestinal origin, and epidemics occurring in this way are spreading rapidly. Today, the frequency of anthropogenic pathogen outbreaks associated with fresh produce, spices, and nuts has surpassed those associated with foods of animal origin. Human pathogens in the production chain; It can be transferred to plant material by basic means such as the use of animal manure, contaminated irrigation water, biological vectors (insects and animals) and contaminated seeds. In the light of these data, many intestinal pathogens have been identified as phyllo sphere-associated bacteria. Despite all these findings, there are many unknowns on the persistence and infectivity of Salmonella in contaminated plant hosts. In this review article, the factors affecting the attachment, colonization and survival of Salmonella on plant surfaces, as well as the information on the infection processes that continue with the invasion of plant tissues are discussed in the light of contemporary literature data.

El feminicidio en México: la obligación de combatirlo y la responsabilidad objetiva del poder ejecutivo federal y de los gobiernos estatales
Authors: Brito Xelha
Published: December 2021

Ante el constante incremento de violencia feminicida, el Estado mexicano está obligado a implementar enérgicamente todas las medidas necesarias para combatir este fenómeno delictivo. Una de las principales demandas estriba en la falta de información concreta para el diseño de adecuadas políticas públicas. En esa tesitura, el presente artículo tiene como finalidad indicar algunas de las obligaciones compartidas entre los gobiernos estatales y el gobierno federal, tales como: 1) brindar y recabar información útil respecto a la incidencia delictiva sistematizada, e interpretable; y 2) con la información obtenida, diseñar políticas públicas evaluables e idóneas para combatir la violencia de género y su expresión más grave: el feminicidio.

Al tomar como marco referencial los derechos humanos en el presente estudio, se parte del contexto actual que sufren las mujeres en México, con cifras oficiales presentadas por entes públicos nacionales e internacionales. Posteriormente, se desarrollan las obligaciones convencionales del Estado mexicano y las referidas constitucionalmente para todas las autoridades y todos los niveles de gobierno; finalmente, se menciona el deber de coordinación y coadyuvancia en materia de seguridad pública entre el gobierno federal y las entidades federativas. Así, se esboza la siguiente hipótesis: el incumplimiento de estas obligaciones deriva en responsabilidades objetivas, por daños que resultan en violaciones a derechos humanos y atentados persistentes e irreparables contra la dignidad de mujeres, niñas y adolescentes.

Published: December 2021

Bu çalışmada Aydın Çine bölgesinden alınan feldspat cevheri içerisindeki mineraller; minerolojik, kimyasal ve feldspat zenginleştirme yöntemlerinden olan flotasyon yöntemi kullanılarak karakterize edilmiştir.. Geleneksel yöntemler ile(XRD) cevherin ana mineralinin albit (Na feldspat) ve ikincil mineralinin kuvars olduğu kolaylıkla belirlenmiştir. Ancak; kimyasal analizle belirlenen demir, titanyum, kalsiyum, magnezyum gibi elementlerin kaynağı olabilecek (muskovit, rutil, sfen, ilmenit, hematit, apatit vb olabilir) minerallerin cevher içerisindeki konsantrasyonlarının düşük olması nedeniyle net bir pik elde edilememiştir. Cevher içerisindeki oranları çok düşük olan ve doğrudan analiz yöntemlerinin yetersiz kaldığı bu durumda eser mineralleri belirleyebilmek amacıyla cevhere flotasyon işlemi uygulanmıştır. Böylece feldspat cevheri flotasyon yöntemi ile zenginleştirilirken, mika ve ağır mineral ürünlerindeki eser minerallerin pikleri XRD yöntemi ile tespit edilebilmiştir.
Corporal Punishment: Law Reform Lessons for Australia from South Africa and New Zealand
Authors: Greeff Laetitia-Ann
Published: December 2021

This article compares the law reform methods employed by South Africa and New Zealand to eliminate the defence of ‘moderate and reasonable chastisement’ to a charge of common assault, to determine the best possible law reform strategy for Australian jurisdictions, within the context of its federal system of governance. South Africa and New Zealand banned corporal punishment on a national level, with South Africa prohibiting the use of corporal punishment by way of the judicial condemnation of the Constitutional Court in 2019, and New Zealand’s legislation to ban corporal punishment through Parliamentary processes in 2007. Corporal punishment in the home is still legal in Australia if administered by parents or those in loco parentis. This article focuses on the three Australian States that have enacted human rights legislation—Victoria, the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) and Queensland—and the impact of this legislation on judicial law reform. In this regard, the doctrine of parliamentary sovereignty is discussed in terms of its ability to limit public interest litigation’s viability to strike down inconsistent legislation. The article suggests that all three countries can learn from one another concerning the successes and/or failures of law reform. Furthermore, the article concludes by acknowledging that even though formal abolition is the norm in South Africa and New Zealand, corporal punishment remains widespread. Parents and those in loco parentis must be supported by continual education initiatives to bring about requisite social and cultural change.
