Authors: Koy Ayben , Çolak Andaç Batur
Published: August 2023

In this study, a simulation model has been established to forecast the stock price index of Borsa Istanbul (BIST100) and 5-year maturity credit default swap (CDSs) spreads with an artificial intelligence approach. In the study where short-term and long-term relationships between variables were examined using nonlinear econometric models such as Kapetanios, Shin, and Snell and exponential smooth transition autoregressive vector error correction model, Türkiye’s 1211 data sets obtained were used in the period 08.21.2015–08.17.2020. With this data set, a multilayer perceptron artificial neural network (ANN) model has been established. Levenberg–Marquardt algorithm was used as the training algorithm in the feedforward backpropagation network model with 25 neurons in the hidden layer. Six input variables, which are considered to be common parameters affecting the target values, were defined in the input layer, and BIST100 and CDSs were predicted at the output layer. The performance analysis of the network model was completed using various performance parameters, and in addition, a comprehensive performance analysis was performed by comparing the simulation results gotten from the neural network with the target values. The model was able to predict BIST100 with an average deviation of 0.04% and CDSs with an average error of −0.163%. These error rates indicate that the developed ANN has been designed to predict BIST100 and CDSs with ideal accuracy.

Türkiye Türkçesi Ağızlarında Öteki’yi Etiketleme
Authors: KOŞUMCU Selenay
Published: August 2023

Herhangi bir ayırt edici özelliği (biyolojik, fiziksel, kültürel veya psikolojik) bulunan hemen hemen her bireyin alışılmışın dışındaki bu niteliği, beraberinde yeniden tanımlanmayı (damgalamalar, kalıp sözler veya yargılar, lakaplar) getirir. Toplumda ilişkisel süreçlerde ortaya çıkan etiketleme (Ör. saldırgan, kör, katil, madde bağımlısı) adı verilen tanımlama süreçle-rinde, başkalarının etiketlenen bireye bakışının hatta kişinin kendine bakışının dahi değişmesi, yeniden şekillenmesi söz konusudur. Farklı sosyal çevreleriyle düşünüldüğünde sürekli değişim halinde olan insan, kendini tanımlarken ben olarak kendi özneliğini merkezde kabul eder ve kalan tüm ögeleri pek çok farklı özelliğiyle (ırk, renk, cinsiyet, dil, sakatlık vd.) öteki olarak konumlandırır: ben ve ötekiler. Bu çalışmada bireylerin toplum içerisindeki ben ögesini tanıma, anlama süreci boyunca istemli veya istemsiz olarak karşısında konumlandırdığı öteki özelindeki olumlu ve olumsuz etiketleme biçimleri tespit edilecek ve böylelikle öteki’yi etiketlemenin dilsel ve kültürel kodları ortaya konulacaktır. Çalışma, Türkiye Türkçe-si’nin ana ağız gruplarından Random yöntemi ile seçilecek metinler üzerinde yapılacaktır.

(Post-)Modernism and Cyborg Writing in George Egerton’s “The Regeneration of Two” (1894)
Authors: Da Rós Jéssica Katerine Molgero , Fernandes Alinne Balduino Pires
Published: August 2023

Taking into account Rita Felski’s (1995) discussion on stereotypical representations of women in modernity and the New Woman movement, in this paper we analyse George Egerton’s short story “The Regeneration of Two” (1894) from the perspective of Donna Haraway’s cyborg imagery and the concept of cyborg writing. We demonstrate that “The Regeneration of Two” dialogues with Haraway’s proposition of a cyborg writing as it opposes an oppressive patriarchal system with the creation of a women’s community. To do so, we explore two main aspects of cyborg imagery present in the short story: the fractured identities and the community of political kinship, resulting in a subversive “cyborgian epiphany.” This epiphany informs Egerton’s progressive and intersectional representation of gender relations and of women’s writing part and parcel of the late 19th-century radical feminist New Woman movement.
“What a Splendid World We Ruined”: the Precarious Presents and Posthuman Futures of Margaret Atwood’s Oryx and Crake and Dmitry Glukhovsky’s Metro 2033
Authors: Korbel Marta
Published: August 2023

Speculative fiction is a particularly relevant genre at the moment when, apart from the troubling global impact of late-modern phenomena, the ongoing pandemic and the 2022 Russo-Ukrainian War have raised universal concern. This paper conducts a comparative analysis of two novels which describe a postapocalyptic world after a deadly plague and a nuclear conflict, respectively: Margaret Atwood’s Oryx and Crake (2004 [2003]) and Dmitry Glukhovsky’s Metro 2033 (2010 [2005]). It approaches the texts as critiques of late-modern neoliberal capitalism, employing the theory by Zygmunt Bauman, Ulrich Beck and Mark Fisher. Additionally, it scrutinises the representation of the neoliberal subject in Atwood’s book and utilises Svetlana Boym’s reflection on nostalgia in post-Soviet Russia to comment on Glukhovsky’s work. Lastly, it examines the posthuman alternative the two authors present for the deeply flawed human social orders.
Do centro à margem: visões ecocríticas no pensamento contemporâneo
Authors: Bastos Hiandro , Figueira Lauro Roberto do Carmo
Published: August 2023

O estudo visa iluminar os desdobramentos acerca da animalidade no debate teórico-crítico contemporâneo, no domínio dos estudos literários. Estabelecendo um diálogo, sobretudo, entre as reflexões de Gabriel Giorggi, Giorgio Agamben, Dominique Lestel e o pensamento de fronteira suscitado por Ailton Krenak e Eduardo Viveiros de Castro, pretende-se indagar sobre o papel da animalidade na construção de outras traduções do humano. Sob essa formatação, evidenciam-se tensões inconciliáveis contidas na concepção antropocêntrica do humano e do animal, para muito além do debate filosófico. Em face dessa discussão, revelam-se formas alternativas de se pensar não somente a animalidade, mas, também, a humanidade, o que acarreta a ruptura com a produção dos corpos e das subjetividades, gerida pelo imaginário estatal.
Contação de histórias e aliança multiespécie pela sobrevivência em MaddAddam, de Margaret Atwood
Authors: Silva Suênio Stevenson Tomaz da
Published: August 2023

Este artigo é resultado de minha pesquisa de doutorado cujo corpus foi a trilogia MaddAddam, de Margaret Atwood. Para esta proposta, foco minha análise sobre o terceiro romance da coletânea, também intitulado MaddAddam, em que nos é apresentado o desfecho dos enredos dos romances anteriores, a saber, Oryx and Crake (2003) e The year of the flood (2009). Em MaddAddam, publicado em 2013, Atwood especula um futuro em que a contação de histórias e a aliança entre seres humanos e não humanos consistem em estratégias de sobrevivência das espécies em um cenário pós-apocalítico. Para respaldar algumas das minhas reflexões, recorrerei às humanidades ambientais, sobretudo à ecocrítica, perspectiva teórica que me permite vislumbrar, dentre outras questões, como a espécie humana se reconfigura para garantir sua sobrevivência.
Up the river, into the dark: textual play and dystopian gloom in Joca Reiners Terron’s A morte e o meteoro
Authors: Cardoso André Cabral de Almeida
Published: August 2023

The dystopian character of Joca Reiners Terron’s A morte e o meteoro (2019) is indissociable from its critique of colonialism. But while the novel makes frequent references to the violent methods of exploitation that characterized American colonization, it mostly relies on allusions to different literary traditions—including gothic fiction, the adventure novel, and science fiction—in its depiction of colonialism. The dialogue with Heart of Darkness plays a significant role in A morte e o meteoro, which to a large extent is a critical rereading of Conrad’s novella. This article examines how this appropriation of textual and cultural paradigms shapes the dystopian outlook of the novel, while also offering alternatives to the hopelessness that defines its fictional world.

Authors: Szaflik Tomasz , Romanowicz Hanna , Trzmielak Dariusz , Makowska Marianna , Smolarz Beata
Published: August 2023

Introduction

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are implicated in endometriosis development. The aim of the study was to analyse the expression of lncRNA HOTAIR in the context of the risk of developing endometriosis.

Material and methods

The presented study determined lncRNA HOTAIR expression in patients with endometriosis (n=100) compared with a healthy control group (n=100). Histological examination was performed by pathologists using a digital slide scanner and slide viewer software (Case Viewer 2.3, 3D Histech, Budapest, Hungary). The gene expression was measured by the reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technique. Two-step qRT-PCR was used to analyze the expression of HOTAIR gene in normal tissue and endometriosis samples. The total RNA was used for cDNA synthesis. Ct values were used for subsequent analysis and GADPH was used as the endogenous control.

Results

Statistically significantly higher HOTAIR expression was found in endometriosis samples compared to expression in the control material (p<0,0001). With regard to the classification of endometriosis (stage I-IV), there was a statistically significant increase HOTAIR expression in stage IV (p <0,05). There was no relationship between the age of the patients, the number of deliveries, the number of spontaneous abortions and BMI and the expression of HOTAIR

Conclusions

The reported studies suggest a significant role of lncRNA HOTAIR expression in the pathogenesis of endometriosis.
Interplay between State and Collective Bargaining , Comparing France and Spain
Authors: Ruiz Ana Belén Muñoz , Martín Nuria Ramos , Vincent Catherine
Published: August 2023

The authors examine Spain and France, where the state intervened to reform collective bargaining systems through legal regulation. French and Spanish policymakers used the same rhetoric to justify the reforms: the alleged rigidity of their labour markets and collective bargaining systems. Nevertheless, several differences are noticed, especially regarding the strategies of social partners. The idea of decentralisation as a unidirectional and comprehensive process is challenged when examining both countries. In France, the concept of articulation over that of determination is preferred when referring to the collective bargaining decentralisation process. In Spain, the effect of the reforms has been the creation of a new pattern of fragmentation in industrial relations rather than a clearly decentralised collective bargaining system.

The history of dentistry has origins that are lost in time, with ancient records that date back to the manufacture of dental prostheses. In the contemporary scenario, dentistry has experienced remarkable progress, especially in the field of dental prostheses, where new materials have emerged with the aim of harmoniously integrating with the natural structure of the teeth. One of the notable advances is the innovation of alternatives for Removable Partial Dentures, moving away from conventional metallic components and adopting plastic materials. These polymeric options provide greater flexibility, minimize allergy risks, and facilitate adaptation. From a methodological perspective, an extensive literature search was undertaken, using the renowned PUBMED database, covering the time interval between 2013 and 2023. The chosen keywords, “Dentistry”, “dental prosthesis” and “partial prosthesis flexible”, were adopted to guide the consultation. By compiling the samples extracted from the examined literature, it is possible to deduce that flexible prostheses inherently offer superior aesthetic and comfort attributes to patients, thus surpassing conventional alternatives. Despite the ergonomic and aesthetic advantages that they present, the use of flexible prostheses as a permanent prosthetic solution lacks justification, due to the potential harmful impact on periodontal support, mainly associated with the lack of occlusal support. Therefore, it is undeniable that flexible prostheses provide remarkable comfort and admirable aesthetics, which puts them in an advantageous position compared to traditional alternatives. However, there are still intrinsic aspects that deserve attention and improvement. In this context, the continuous search for excellence in the balance between the desired aesthetics and the necessary durability is evident, aiming to offer patients a complete and satisfactory prosthetic experience. The present work proposes to elucidate the advantages and permanence inherent to flexible partial dentures, in addition to making a comparison regarding their quality and durability as opposed to conventional partial dentures. This analysis is primarily based on the review of the relevant scientific literature, thus allowing a grounded and objective approach to the subject in question.
Morphological analyses of sperms causing severe male infertility with light microscopy, motile sperm organellar morphology examination and electron microscopy tecnics.
Authors: Cengiz Ferhat
Published: August 2023

To evaluate abnormal sperm morphology by three different methods including light microscope, real-time motile sperm organelle morphology assessment at 8050x high magnification and electron microscope and to determine degree of affect on morphologic defects level. Beside the light and electron microscopic techniques, the motile sperm organelle examination can offer information about sperm quality in a simple and quick way and by the IMSI developed through the use of sperm selected by this technique can contribute to the success of in vitro fertilization centers. We believe that sperm selection at high magnifications can increase IVF pregnancy rates in patients with sperm morphology that causes severe male infertility.

Published: August 2023

Aims: The malposition of intrauterine devices (IUD) is a major problem in contraception and this study aims to evaluate the surgical procedures used in the management of these cases.
Methods: Patients who were operated on for malposition of copper T IUD between 2018-2021 were evaluated retrospectively. The cases were analyzed in 4 groups as followed; instrumental removal, hysteroscopic (H/S), laparoscopic (L/S), and laparotomic (LPT) procedure. The groups were compared in age, obstetric history, IUD insertion time, and intraoperative outcomes.
Results: There were a total of 39 cases and the groups consisted of instrumental removal (n=8), H/S (n=24), L/S (n=6), and LPT (n=1) procedure. In the H/S group, mean age (44 ±10) and duration of IUD use (10.1 ±7.5 years) were found to be significantly higher than the other groups (p=0.03 and p=0.001 ). Six cases (25%) in the H/S group IUD was in the uterine cavity while in 5 (20.8%) it was embedded in the endometrium and myometrium. In the L/S group, the duration of IUD use was shorter (1.3 ± 0.8 years) and the mean age (29±10) was lower and all cases were managed laparoscopically except in one case that was extracted after conversion to laparotomy.
Conclusion: Advanced age and prolonged IUD use are risk factors for embedded of the IUD in the uterine cavity in the hysteroscopy group, however, IUDs that reach the abdomen by ruptured uterus are detected at younger ages and earlier in IUD use, and minimally invasive methods are eligible surgical procedures for these cases.

Indeterminate Data and Handling for Assessing Diagnostic Performance in Imaging Drug Developments
Authors: Wang Sue-Jane
Published: August 2023

In diagnostic imaging drug developments, the imaging scan read data in controlled imaging drug clinical trials includes test positive and test negative. Broadly speaking, the standard of reference data are either presence or absence of a disease or clinical condition. Together, these data are used to assess the diagnostic performance of an investigational imaging drug in a controlled imaging drug clinical trial. For those imaging scan read data that cannot be called positive/negative, the “indeterminate” category is commonly used to cover imaging results that may be considered intermediate, indeterminate, or uninterpretable. Similarly, for those standard of reference data that cannot be categorized into presence/absence including uncollected or unavailable reference standard data, the “indeterminate” category may be used. Historically, little attention has been paid to the indeterminate imaging scan read data as they are generally rare or considered irrelevant though they are related to scanned subjects and can be informative. Subjects lack the standard of reference are simply excluded as such the study only reports the analysis results in subjects with available standard of reference data, known as completer analysis, similar to evaluable subjects seen in controlled trials for drug developments.
To improve diagnostic clinical trial planning, this paper introduces five attributes of an estimand in diagnostic imaging drug clinical trials. The paper then defines the indeterminate data mechanisms and gives examples for each indeterminate mechanism that is specific to the clinical context of a diagnostic imaging drug clinical trial. Several imputation approaches to handling indeterminate data are discussed. Depending on the clinical question of primary interests, indeterminate data may be intercurrent events. The paper ends with discussions on imputations of intercurrent events occurring in indeterminate imaging scan read data and those occurring in indeterminate standard of reference data when encountered in diagnostic imaging clinical trials and provides points to consider of estimands for diagnostic imaging drug developments.

Authors: Hao Qiukui , Horton Jennifer
Published: August 2023

The transcatheter edge-to-edge valve repair (TEER) device (TriClip) might be more effective in reducing tricuspid regurgitation severity and improving quality of life compared to medical therapy alone.

The TEER device (TriClip) may have little impact on all-cause mortality, hospitalization due to heart failure, and 6-minute walk tests compared to medical therapy alone.

The TEER device (TriClip) demonstrated a numerically higher rate of adverse events than a medical therapy control group in a clinical trial.

Patients treated with the TEER device (TriClip) had fewer major adverse events (ranging from 2.5% to 7.1%) than the 10% performance goal in the included clinical trial; common major adverse events included major bleeding, single leaflet device attachment, and nonelective cardiovascular surgery. No device embolization or thrombosis were reported.

We did not identify any studies that met our inclusion criteria to evaluate the effectiveness of the TEER device (TriClip) compared to open heart surgery.

O tratamento do câncer passou por uma evolução notável com a introdução das terapias alvo e da imunoterapia. Essas abordagens inovadoras revolucionaram a maneira como enfrentamos essa doença complexa e desafiadora. As terapias alvo consistem em direcionar moléculas específicas envolvidas no crescimento e sobrevivência das células cancerígenas, enquanto a imunoterapia visa estimular o sistema imunológico do paciente para reconhecer e atacar as células cancerígenas. A revolução da imunoterapia trouxe à luz um novo paradigma de tratamento, onde o próprio sistema imunológico é explorado para combater o câncer. Inibidores de checkpoint imunológico, como os anticorpos anti-PD-1 e anti-PD-L1, têm demonstrado resultados promissores em diversos tipos de câncer, proporcionando remissões duradouras em alguns pacientes. Além disso, as terapias alvo têm demonstrado eficácia em cânceres com mutações específicas, permitindo um tratamento mais preciso e personalizado. A combinação de terapias alvo e imunoterapia tem se mostrado promissora, potencializando os efeitos positivos de ambas as abordagens e aumentando as taxas de resposta em pacientes. Os avanços científicos e tecnológicos têm permitido o desenvolvimento de biomarcadores preditivos, auxiliando na identificação dos pacientes mais propensos a responder a essas terapias. Apesar dos avanços notáveis, ainda enfrentamos desafios consideráveis, como a resistência ao tratamento, a variabilidade na resposta do paciente e os custos associados. A pesquisa contínua e a colaboração multidisciplinar são fundamentais para superar esses desafios e aprimorar ainda mais as terapias existentes. À medida que olhamos para o futuro, é emocionante considerar as perspectivas promissoras que as terapias alvo e a imunoterapia oferecem no tratamento do câncer. Com o contínuo progresso na compreensão das bases moleculares e imunológicas do câncer, estamos cada vez mais próximos de oferecer opções de tratamento mais eficazes e personalizadas para os pacientes, trazendo esperança renovada para aqueles afetados por essa doença devastadora.

How does tropospheric VOC chemistry affect climate? An investigation of preindustrial control simulations using the Community Earth System Model version 2
Authors: Stanton Noah A. , Tandon Neil F.
Published: August 2023

Abstract. Because of their computational expense, models with comprehensive tropospheric chemistry have typically been run with prescribed sea surface temperatures (SSTs), which greatly limits the model's ability to generate climate responses to atmospheric forcings. In the past few years, however, several fully coupled models with comprehensive tropospheric chemistry have been developed. For example, the Community Earth System Model version 2 with the Whole Atmosphere Community Climate Model version 6 as its atmospheric component (CESM2-WACCM6) has implemented fully interactive tropospheric chemistry with 231 chemical species as well as a fully coupled ocean. Earlier versions of this model used a “SOAG scheme” that prescribes bulk emission of a single gas-phase precursor to secondary organic aerosols (SOAs). In contrast, CESM2-WACCM6 simulates the chemistry of a comprehensive range of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) responsible for tropospheric aerosol formation. Such a model offers an opportunity to examine the full climate effects of comprehensive tropospheric chemistry. To examine these effects, 211-year preindustrial control simulations were performed using the following two configurations: (1) the standard CESM2-WACCM6 configuration with interactive chemistry over the whole atmosphere (WACtl) and (2) a simplified CESM2-WACCM6 configuration using a SOAG scheme in the troposphere and interactive chemistry in the middle atmosphere (MACtl). The middle-atmospheric chemistry is the same in both configurations, and only the tropospheric chemistry differs. Differences between WACtl and MACtl were analyzed for various fields. Regional differences in annual mean surface temperature range from −4 to 4 K. In the zonal average, there is widespread tropospheric cooling in the extratropics. Longwave forcers are shown to be unlikely drivers of this cooling, and possible shortwave forcers are explored. Evidence is presented that the climate response is primarily due to increased sulfate aerosols in the extratropical stratosphere and cloud feedbacks. As found in earlier studies, enhanced internal mixing with SOAs in WACtl causes widespread reductions of black carbon (BC) and primary organic matter (POM), which are not directly influenced by VOC chemistry. These BC and POM reductions might further contribute to cooling in the Northern Hemisphere. The extratropical tropospheric cooling results in dynamical changes, such as equatorward shifts of the midlatitude jets, which in turn drive extratropical changes in clouds and precipitation. In the tropical upper troposphere, cloud-driven increases in shortwave heating appear to weaken and expand the Hadley circulation, which in turn drives changes in tropical and subtropical precipitation. Some of the climate responses are quantitatively large enough in some regions to motivate future investigations of VOC chemistry's possible influences on anthropogenic climate change.
