Moko Symbolization As Socio-Religious Harmony of Alor Society in East Nusa Tenggara
Authors: Iswanto Iswanto , Kawanggung Yudhi
Published: January 2022

The understanding of moko is related to the identity of the Alor people. Historically, moko was brought from Vietnam and became a heirloom which was passed down from generation to generation. In practice, moko can be used as a dowry of marriage, clan identity, musical instruments, and several other uses. This study provides novelty on the moko symbolization as a socio-religious harmony of Alor society. The problem to be resolved in this research is “how does the moko symbolize socio-religious harmony in the people of Alor, East Nusa Tenggara?” The theoretical concept used in this article is Geertz’s ‘religious as the cultural system” which is paired with Epicurus' opinion about the three levels of harmony. This study used the phenomenological method of Edmund Husserl.  The results of this study are moko symbolization as a rhythmic leader of musical instruments related with social messages in the ownership it and the function of moko as a dowry of marriage. In addition, the results of the study also show that the symbolization of moko becomes a part of the harmony embodiment in the life of the Alor people. This symbolization process occurs at the level of ideas and manifests in behavior. The novelty in this research is the characteristics of the Alor community as a heterogeneous society place the symbols of a set of conventions. Moko as part of the convention symbol embodies social harmonization. This part becomes an interesting character because moko is not an original object from the Alor community, but it has been adopted as a cultural symbol. Social harmonization occurs at the level of ideas which are adhered to customary law. This really depends on the values held in society.

Authors: Nur Mahmudah , Siswayanti Novita , Nurrahmah Nurrahmah
Published: January 2022

The Ngareremokeun ritual is a form of indigenous community belief in the Kasepuhan Cisungsang who live around the Mount Halimun Salak National Park (TNGHS) Lebak Regency, Banten Province toward customary law as the embodiment of ancestral mandates. The Ngareremokeun tradition is also evidence of various cultures acculturation without eliminating another cultural element. This paper aims to understand the meaning of moderation as reflected in the Ngareremokeun ritual and to show its relevance to the context of the community that owns the tradition and Indonesian society in general. This descriptive study emphasizes on qualitative data with a structuralist approach that aims to describe the moderation values reflected in the Ngareremokeun ritual. Data was collected through interviews with cultural actors and direct observation on the Ngareremokeun ritual. The results of this study indicate that the Ngareremokeun ritual is the evidence of knowledge resource and cultural expression of indigenous people in the Kasepuhan Cisungsang to maintain the sustainability of their traditions. The meaning of the symbols embodied in this tradition, the moderation values in the Ngareremokeun ritual is appropriate with the four indicators of religious moderation, namely national commitment, tolerance, non-violence, and accommodating to local culture. The moderation value can also be found in the attitudes and behavior of the Ngararemokeun’s actors and the indigenous people in Kasepuhan Cisungsang.
Estrogenic Effect of Bambusa arundinacea, Trichosanthes dioica and Punica granatum on Rats
Authors: Awasthi Akanksha , Singh Mamta F. , Sharma Saurabh
Published: January 2022

Background: Phytoestrogens have recently become a hot topic among scientists. Phytoestrogens’ estrogen-like properties have led to their widespread use in the reproductive system. The aim of this research was to see whether the ethanolic extract of Bambusa arundinaceae, Trichosanthes dioica and Punica granatum had any estrogenic activity in female wistar rats. Methods: In female wistar rats, the estrogenic effect was studied using a uterotropic assay, vaginal cytology and vaginal opening. In ovariectomized immature and mature female wistar rats, a 400 mg/kg body weight (b.w.) dose of ethanolic extract of Bambusa arundinaceae, Trichosanthes dioica and Punica granatum was given. Result: When compared to ovariectomized control rats, the uterine wet weight increased significantly. The estrogen-treated rats had only cornified epithelial cells, indicating the existence of oestrogen, as well as 100% vaginal opening. At 400 mg/kg b.w., the ethanolic extract of Bambusa arundinaceae, Trichosanthes dioica and Punica granatum demonstrated promising estrogenic activity, as evidenced by uterotropic assays, vaginal opening measurements and histopathological changes. As a result of this research, it’s possible to infer that the ethanolic extract of Bambusa arundinaceae, Trichosanthes dioica and Punica granatum play an important role in estrogenic activity in female rats.

Published: January 2022

Background: Ruminants, during the newborn stage, are considered as agammaglobulinemic (calves and buffalos) or hypogammaglobulinemic (kids and lambs), where the colostrum intake is important for the decrease of illness incidence, an adequate development and a low peripartum mortality. The aim was to evaluate the use of dehydrated bovine colostrum as an alternative to natural ovine colostrum upon de development and immunity of Dorper lambs.
Methods: A total of 35 lambs, divided in two groups, one (CN; n=17) fed with natural colostrum directly from the mother, the second (CB; n=18) fed with a colostrum substitute based on dehydrated bovine colostrum, were used.
Result: The colostrum quality was better for the CN group regarding lipids, CP, density, solids and fat when compared to the CB (p less than 0.05). Glucose levels were higher in the CN than the CB 24 h after colostrum administration (116 mg/dl and 97 mg/dl, respectively; p less than 0.05). There were no diarrheas or respiratory illnesses in lambs from both groups at 24 h after birth (p greater than 0.05). Maybe, the use of bovine dehydrated colostrum transfers a similar immunization than natural colostrum, which generated a low incidence of respiratory and metabolic illnesses and a good body development.
Genetic Variability and G×E Interactions in a Diverse Set of Groundnut Accessions
Authors: Gangadhara K. , Gor H.K.
Published: January 2022

Background: Knowledge of the genetic diversity for various agronomic traits and their interaction with the environment and subsequent classification of genotypes will be beneficial for identification of divergent and stable sources of agronomic traits. Methods: A set of 96 groundnut germplasm accessions belonging to four botanical groups were evaluated for three years (2017 to 2019) for pod yield and component traits using AMMI analysis and subsequently accessions were classified based Euclidean cluster analysis. Result: Among different botanical groups, Virginia genotypes matured late and possessed high SPAD chlorophyll meter readings (SCMR) and pod yield compared to Spanish types. The component traits of pod maturity like days to flowering (first and 50%) showed low heritability and high genotype × environment interaction (GEI) and significant negatively affected sound mature kernel (SMK) and shelling per centage (SP). The cumulative contribution of environment and GEI component to the total variance was the highest in the expression of SP (67%) followed by days to maturity (54%) and days to 50% flowering (52%). Euclidean distance-based cluster analysis grouped the 96 accessions into five major clusters. Cluster I had accessions with higher pod yield, whereas cluster V contained accessions with low SLA, high SCMR and moderate pod yield. High yielding as well as stable accessions identified based on AMMI stability value (ASV) are NRCG 17332, 10076, 17268, 17197, 17108, 10106, 10089 and 17165. Trait specific as well as stable accessions identified in the present study can be useful donors for groundnut breeding programme.
LES NOMS ALTERNATIFS DE L’ORGANE SEXUEL FÉMININ EN FRANÇAIS ET EN SERBE : ASPECT LEXICO-SÉMANTIQUE
Authors: Jovanović Ivan
Published: January 2022

Dans le présent article nous procédons à l’analyse des noms alternatifs de lʼorgane sexuel féminin en français et en serbe afin de montrer toutes les similitudes et les différences qui se produisent au niveau lexico-sémantique. En partant des postulats de lʼanalyse sémique et conceptuelle (Ullmann, 1951 ; Touratier, 2010 ; Lakoff et Johnson, 1980) ainsi que de la classification de Guiraud (1995) des unités lexicales obscènes, notre corpus est répertorié selon les formes de polysémie induisant la signification des noms alternatifs (relations métaphoriques basées sur la forme, la fonction, la couleur et les sèmes de l’expression collective) et selon les types de métaphore conceptuelle à partir desquels lʼorgane sexuel féminin est conceptualisé comme un bâtiment, un lieu, un animal, une plante ou un espace géographique. Le corpus de notre recherche se compose des dictionnaires obscènes français et serbe de Pierre Guiraud (1995), Alfred Delvau (1997), Robert Édouard (2004), Danko Šipka (2011), Petrit Imami (2007), ainsi que des dictionnaires dʼargot dʼAbdelkarim Tengour (2013), Dragoslav Andrić (1976) et Borivoje Gerzić (2010).
LA GRAMMAIRE DANS LES MANUELS DE FLE UTILISÉS DANS L’ENSEIGNEMENT PRIMAIRE EN MACÉDOINE
Authors: Kasaposka-Chandlovska Milena , Milevska-Kulevska Maja
Published: January 2022

Ayant en vue qu’en Macédoine le nombre d’élèves choisissant le français en primaire ne cesse de diminuer les dernières années et sachant que ce manque d’intérêt a des implications directes sur l’apprentissage du français dans les niveaux supérieurs d’éducation, il est tout à fait légitime de se demander quelles en sont les raisons possibles. Interrogés pourquoi ils ne font pas le choix du français au niveau universitaire, la majorité de ceux l’ayant déjà appris en primaire avancent que le manque d’intérêt pour le français est dû à la complexité de sa grammaire. Le fait même qu’ils résument l’apprentissage du français à l’acquisition de sa grammaire peut indiquer que malgré les approches didactiques modernes recommandées depuis plus de vingt ans par le Cadre européen commun de référence (CECRL), il s’avère possible que la grammaire dans les manuels utilisés en classe de FLE ne soit pas au service des objectifs de communication mais qu’elle soit toujours représentée d’une manière « traditionnelle ». Dans ce sens, l’objectif de cette étude sera de faire une analyse des contenus grammaticaux présents dans deux manuels de FLE actuellement en usage dans l’enseignement primaire en Macédoine, à savoir Le Mag et Vite. En premier lieu, l’analyse nous permettra de voir quelle est la représentation de la grammaire dans ces deux manuels et de vérifier dans quelle mesure elle correspond aux recommandations du CECRL pour le développement des compétences communicatives. En deuxième lieu, nous allons analyser le type d’approche grammaticale dans les manuels ainsi que le type d’exercices proposés pour son acquisition.
L’INTERTEXTUALITÉ ET LA MODERNITÉ DANS LES COMPAGNONS DE VOYAGE D’ISIDORA SEKULIĆ
Authors: Đurić Vladimir
Published: January 2022

Dans ce travail, nous allons envisager la présence de la poétique et de l’esthétique du mal et du malheur, ainsi que la présence de l’esprit moderne et avant-gardiste dans les Compagnons de voyage (Saputnici) d’Isidora Sekulić. En effectuant une analyse comparative et intertextuelle, dans un premier temps, nous allons au fur et à mesure découvrir chez Isidora Sekulić une fantaisie débordante à la manière de Rimbaud, ainsi qu’une série d’images poétiques néfastes mais créatrices ; ces images tirent leurs origines du romantisme noir et grotesque (Hugo, Nerval), en passant par Baudelaire et ses successeurs « terribles », comme Rimbaud ou Lautréamont. En outre, nous allons également reconnaître des images plastiques d’une maladie physique, dignes du réalisme ou du naturalisme « clinique » de Zola et ses héritiers. Dans un deuxième temps, nous mettons en relief l’esprit moderne des Compagnons de voyage. Ce recueil a paru en 1913, la même année où paraissent les Alcools de Guillaume Apollinaire. Le recueil des fragments en prose est le premier ouvrage de l’écrivaine serbe et représente en même temps « un vrai souffle de la modernité » tout comme le célèbre recueil des poèmes d’Apollinaire. C’est dans ce contexte de la « zone » antitraditionnelle et moderne que nous mettons en relation la poésie d’Apollinaire et la prose poétique d’Isidora Sekulić. Notre intention est de montrer la profondeur du génie poétique d’Isidora Sekulić qui communique, de façon sous-jacente mais intense, avec les esprits antérieurs et contemporains.
ENQUÊTE LITTÉRAIRE, EN QUÊTE DE SOI : LE COMPLEXE DE LA SORCIÈRE D’ISABELLE SORENTE
Authors: Đurić Nađa
Published: January 2022

Dans Le complexe de la sorcière (2020), Isabelle Sorente raconte comment l’image de la sorcière fait irruption dans sa vie et dans son écriture, et l’amène à interroger l’impact psychique des chasses aux sorcières, ainsi que sa transmission tacite aux générations postérieures. Si la littérature contemporaine « revendique volontiers l’enquête comme démarche d’écriture » (Laurent Demanze, Un nouvel âge de l’enquête, 2019), Le complexe de la sorcière illustre cette tendance en alliant enquête historique, exploration de la mémoire familiale, auto-analyse et introspection. En étudiant le dernier roman d’Isabelle Sorente, nous nous intéresserons à ce mode particulier de représentation littéraire de la vie intérieure, où l’écriture conçue comme enquête devient le véhicule d’une transformation intérieure. En poursuivant une analyse parallèle de la prise de conscience de l’auteure et des transformations génériques que subit le récit, nous verrons que l’enquête transforme d’abord le roman en essai, et le rapproche de la notion de littérature appliquée à la psychanalyse (P. Bayard). Nous verrons ensuite que la remémoration du passé familial et personnel, au lieu d’être l’aboutissement de la narration, ouvre le récit de soi aux récits des autres. Finalement, les réflexions de P. Ricœur nous permettront d’articuler la relation entre littérature documentaire et construction du sujet.
LE MOUVEMENT DANS L’EXPRESSION DES RELATIONS SPATIALES EN FRANÇAIS ET EN SERBE
Authors: Vilić Ivana
Published: January 2022

Cet article présente l’analyse de l’expression du mouvement en français et en serbe. Nous avons comparé l’expression de l’origine du déplacement, de son terme et de la trajectoire. L’analyse montre que dans les deux langues, à part le verbe, les prépositions et en serbe, le cas, jouent un rôle important dans l’expression de l’origine et du terme du déplacement. La plus grande différence s’observe dans l’expression de la trajectoire, qui est exprimée en français par le verbe et la préposition à, alors qu’en serbe elle est marquée au niveau formel par l’accusatif.
SUR QUELQUES VALEURS SÉMANTIQUES DU PRONOM PERSONNEL DE LA 2E PERSONNE DU PLURIEL EN FRANÇAIS ET EN SERBE
Authors: Stanković Selena
Published: January 2022

Dans les langues française et serbe, le pronom personnel de la 2e personne du pluriel désigne un groupe d’interlocuteurs ou un groupe de personnes comprenant au moins un interlocuteur, mais excluant toujours le locuteur. En dehors du sémantisme fondamental, le pronom français vous et le pronom serbe vi contiennent également d’autres valeurs d’emploi qui sont variées et nombreuses. Vu ce fait linguistique, nous nous concentrons sur les trois composantes de leur potentiel de signification − la forme de politesse, l’indice de généralité et la valeur vocative − qui caractérisent soit exclusivement soit en particulier le pronom personnel de la 2e personne du pluriel. Nous les explorons et comparons afin de définir les ressemblances et les différences dans le comportement sémantique de ces deux formes pronominales. À l’aide du procédé descriptif et de la méthode contrastive, nous effectuons notre recherche sur le corpus formé d’exemples extraits d’œuvres littéraires d’auteurs français et serbes et de leur traduction respectivement en serbe et en français ; les exemples sont prélevés dans la base du corpus parallèle ParCoLab et directement dans plusieurs romans et nouvelles. Dans cette étude, nous partons des définitions et des éclaircissements proposés par la littérature linguistique traitant la catégorie grammaticale de pronoms personnels en français et en serbe.
PRIČA NA VAŠ NAČIN REMONA KENOA: JEDNA KNJIŽEVNA IGRA
Authors: Nešić Marija V.
Published: January 2022

Francuski pisac Remon Keno (Raymond Queneau, 1903–1976), jedan od osnivača književne grupe Ulipo, te samim tim i popularizator potencijalne književnosti, nakon Stilskih vežbi (Exercices de style, 1947) i romana Caca u metrou (Zazie dans le métro, 1959), koji su ga proslavili, godine 1967. objavljuje još jedno atipično delo koje može biti smatrano začetnikom novog književnog žanra ili samo smelim eksperimentom: Priču na Vaš način (Un conte à votre façon). U ovom radu pokušaćemo da rasvetlimo specifičnosti tog dela podvlačeći njegov ludički potencijal, i to najpre polazeći od sličnosti i razlika sa tradicionalnom bajkom, da bismo zatim, oslanjajući se na njegovu razgranatu strukturu, uočili vezu sa interaktivnom književnošću, ali i izdvojili elemente kojima ovo delo odstupa od prave interaktivnosti; tako će nam zaključak odgovoriti na pitanje kakva je zapravo književna igra pred nama.
POJMOVNA METAFORA LJUBAVI U TEKSTOVIMA POP PESAMA NA SRPSKOM I ENGLESKOM
Authors: Lukić Milica M.
Published: January 2022

U ovom radu izučava se metaforička konceptualizacija ljubavi u tekstovima pesama četiri izvođača pop muzike (po jednog muškog i ženskog izvođača na srpskom i engleskom jeziku). Kao što ističu Lejkof i Džonson (Lakoff & Johnson 1980/2003), pojmovne metafore odražavaju način na koji poimamo svet i izražavamo svoja mišljenja i osećanja. Cilj rada je da se istraži da li se pojmovna metafora ljubavi razlikuje u pesmama na srpskom i engleskom, kao i da li postoje razlike između tekstova ispevanih od strane ženskih i muških izvođača. Pokazalo se da su najfrekventniji izvorni domeni bol/bolest, igra/kocka, ludilo/mentalni poremećaj i putovanje. Rezultati istraživanja takođe otkrivaju da, iako nisu preterano izražene, određene razlike u konceptualizaciji ljubavi između dva pomenuta jezika i dva pola ipak postoje.
КЊИЖЕВНИ ИДЕНТИТЕТ УРОША ПРЕДИЋА: НЕНАД СИМИЋ, СЛИКАРЕВО ПЕРО, ПИСМА УРОША ПРЕДИЋА
Authors: Перић Сања П.
Published: January 2022

Рад се бави писмима Уроша Предића која су упућена великанима српске књижевности и културе и у којима се открива сликарев литерарни дар. Особени језички сензибилитет, аутентична осећајност, и необична доза хумора, приказују Уроша Предића као литерату чија писма заслужују статус уметничког дела. На ексцерпираним примерима из одабраних писама у књизи Ненада Симића Сликарево перо, писма Уроша Предића показаћемо на који начин се језичким играма, вештим поређењима и промишљањима на граници књижевности и филозофије, гради књижевни идентитет великог српског сликара. Методом пажљивог читања (енг. close reading) издвајају се главни елементи преписке који не само да откривају литерарни таленат Предића-кореспондента већ обухватају и ставове о проблематици његовог сликарског стваралаштва. Сам Предић препознаје оригиналност и непосредност као одлике својих писама које би се могле допасти читалачкој публици, а на основу детаљније књижевно-језичке анализе уочава се интересантан спој меланхолије и фине ироније у односу према свету и животу. Однос Уроша Предића према онима са којима се дуги низ година дописује тема је посебног дела рада у којем је фокус на његовој преписци са Миланом Савићем. Циљ рада је истицање запостављеног домена Предићевог уметничког стварања који може бити подстицајан за будућа књижевно-критичка проучавања.
INTERLINGVISTIČKO PREVOĐENJE METAFORA U IDIOMATSKIM IZRAZIMA SA ITALIJANSKOG NA SRPSKI JEZIK
Authors: Stojanović Ana M.
Published: January 2022

Naučnici i istraživači koji se bave semiotikom prevođenja složni su u zapažanjima da semioza nikada ne može biti prekinuta i da je, stoga, prevođenje uvek moguće. Međutim, i pored njihovih stavova, metafore ali i idiomatski izrazi koje one čine, a koje karakterišu svaki kulturni kontekst, jedan su od najvećih izazova kako za semiotičare tako i za prevodioce. U ovom radu našu pažnju ćemo posvetiti prevodu metafora u idiomatskim izrazima, ali i ambivalentnim metaforama i njihovom ispravnom prevodu. Cilj će svakako biti doprinos radu prevodioca u susretu sa ovakvim jezičkim elementima. Metodologija će se zasnivati na semiotičkoj analizi korpusa koji je sakupljen na osnovu dva kriterijuma: po prvom kriterijumu sakupljeni su oni izrazi koji se ne pominju u frazeološkim rečnicima i oni izrazi za koje rečnici ne beleže sve moguće prevode. Drugi kriterijum je formiran na osnovu same metafore u izrazu, koja je semantički morala biti potpuno drugačija u srpskom i italijanskom jeziku, ali ne i sintaktički (u smislu enuncijatuma[1]).

 

[1] U lingvistici enuncijatum je iskaz sačinjen od  znakova i zvukova koji dobijaju značenje u određenom kontekstu. U tom smislu se razlikuje od fraze (rečenice), koja je kao jedinica jezičkog sistema apstraktno shvaćena, ali koja, za razliku od enuncijatuma, ne mora zavisiti od konteksta.

Published: January 2022

La agricultura sustentable promueve la reducción de fertilizantes químicos con residuos orgánicos, e incrementa la fertilidad del suelo. Con la incorporación de residuos orgánicos, un efecto poco evaluado es la emisión de CO2 el cual resultaría un indicador de la mineralización del carbono y la liberación de nutrientes para los cultivos. El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar la incorporación de tres abonos orgánicos: estiércol caprino (EC), estiércol bovino (EB) y gallinaza (EG), con dos dosis de 4.5 y 9.0 kg m-2, para determinar la liberación y acumulación de C-CO2 en condiciones de laboratorio por 95 días. Las aplicaciones de EB incrementaron el pH, conductividad eléctrica, carbono orgánico, nitrógeno total, emisión y liberación de CO2en comparación con los otros abonos. Se observaron mayores efectos por los abonos orgánicos a la profundidad de 0 a 15 cm en todas las variables de estudio. La acumulación de CO2 se relaciona con la mineralización del carbono, esta fue mayor en EB seguido de EG y EC. La adición de EB al suelo es una opción para incrementar la mineralización del carbono y mantener la productividad de los cultivos de manera sustentable.

La retención placentaria (RP) es uno de los trastornos reproductivos más comunes que afecta a las vacas lecheras; sin embargo, los factores de riesgo no están completamente establecidos. El objetivo fue determinar la relación entre diferentes factores de riesgo para PR en el norte de México. Se utilizaron los registros productivos de 2,483 vacas Holstein en Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, México. Las variables se analizaron mediante una prueba X2. Se calcularon las razones de momios (odds ratio; OR) y se realizó un análisis de correlación canónica para determinar la influencia de los factores de riesgo con RP y la influencia de RP sobre los parámetros reproductivos. La incidencia total de RP fue del 10.15%. Los factores de riesgo con mayor OR fueron nacimiento gemelar y nacimiento prematuro, seguidos por mortinatos y distocia. Ninguna temporada de parto incrementó la presencia de PR. La presencia de PR no aumentó la presencia de metritis. El análisis de correlación canónica fue significativo para parto gemelar, mortinatos, nacimiento prematuro y distocia, pero no para la temporada de parto. Existe una correlación significativa de PR con la cantidad de servicios para lograr gestación, el número de lactancias y los días en leche. En conclusión, los factores de riesgo parto gemelar, parto prematuro, mortinatos, distocia y edad de la vaca afectan la incidencia de RP, mientras que la temporada de parto no predispone a la presentación de esta alteración. PR no aumenta la presencia de metritis o la cantidad de servicios, pero reduce los días en leche.

Published: January 2022

With the purpose to search upon the cytokinins origin, a study was conducted on the effects of prohexadione-ca (P-Ca) on cytokinins in xylem sap and on stomatal resistance in apple. Golden Delicious seedlings were sprayed with 100 ppm P-Ca. Stomatal leaf resistance was measured at intervals between 1 and 4 hours of spraying and 15 days after the treatment. Golden Delicious trees were sprayed with 200 ppm P-Ca two weeks after full bloom. At intervals between 1 and two weeks after P-Ca treatment, the main de-shooted stem was removed from root system and xylem sap was collected for cytokinins analysis using the suction technique. Prohexadioneca significantly increased stomatal resistance (range 2.74-4.35 s/cm−1) when compared to control (range 2.12-3.44 s/cm−1); however, P-Ca did not modify the level of cytokinins in xylem sap since range values were between 0.10 to 0.20 μg kinetin equivalents/20 ml xylem sap for both, cytokinin and control.

El objetivo fue probar la hipótesis de que la RBPC se convertiría en un sitio altamente expuesto al aumento en temperatura promedio anual e inundable por el incremento del nivel del mar. Los registros de precipitación y temperatura se descargaron de seis estaciones meteorológicas y capas climáticas de MCG para 2045-2069 y 2075-2099 (RCP 4.5 y 8.5) a una resolución de 1 km2. Las pruebas estadísticas utilizadas en los datos permitieron detectar tendencias de aumento (p < 0.05) a través del tiempo. Debido a la incertidumbre de los escenarios climáticos a futuro, se probaron y analizaron cuatro escenarios. Los resultados indican una tendencia de aumento significativo en temperatura promedio anual de 0.34 a 0.82 ◦C para 1960-2015.

One method for investigating the solvability of boundary value problems for an implicit differential equation
Authors: Merchela Wassim
Published: January 2022

The article concernes a boundary value problem with linear boundary conditions of general form for the scalar differential equation
f(t,x(t),x ̇(t))=y ̂(t),
not resolved with respect to the derivative x ̇ of the required function. It is assumed that the function f satisfies the Caratheodory conditions, and the function y ̂ is measurable. The method proposed for studying such a boundary value problem is based on the results about operator equation with a mapping acting from a metric space to a set with distance (this distance satisfies only one axiom of a metric: it is equal to zero if and only if the elements coincide). In terms of the covering set of the function f(t,x_1,•): R→R and the Lipschitz set of the function f(t,•,x_2): R →R, conditions for the existence of solutions and their stability to perturbations of the function f generating the differential equation, as well as to perturbations of the right-hand sides of the boundary value problem: the function y ̂ and the value of the boundary condition, are obtained.

Published: January 2022

Francisella tularensis, a Gram-negative coccobacillus, is a highly virulent pathogen responsible for several zoonotic outbreaks in Europe in the last few decades. The authors report the case of a 46-year-old male who developed fever, myalgias and headache a week after having contact with animal feed contaminated by rodents. Serological tests were positive for Francisella tularensis. This first case of autochthonous tularemia in Portugal led to an intensive investigation involving several healthcare services and national governmental authorities. The authors address the possible underdiagnosis of this infection in the country.

Qualidade afetiva em sistemas computacionais
Authors: Hayashi Elaine C. S.
Published: January 2022

As tecnologias digitais cada vez mais fazem parte do nosso cotidiano, estando presentes em todos os lugares. As abordagens tradicionais de design faziam sentido quando a computação era direcionada e centrada em atividades bem específicas. As bases que designers antes seguiam para direcionar seus esforços tinham por referência os conceitos de usabilidade e acessibilidade. Mais recentemente, esses conceitos passaram a ser reforçados, abrindo espaço para a exploração de outras abordagens, como a relacionada a aspectos afetivos da interação. Sendo um tema relativamente novo, modelos e frameworks que associem a qualidade afetiva da interação com o design de sistemas ainda são escassos, principalmente quando o público alvo são crianças em contexto de aprendizado.

Published: January 2022

Introduction: Inhalation injury is one of burns impact. Airway burns due to inhalation injury is a non-specific term which refer to all respiratory tract injuries occurred due to irritative chemicals, including heat and smoke during inspiration. Inhalation injury increases the risk of death in burns. Pneumonia is one of burns-related inhalation injury complications.Methods: This was a descriptive retrospective study aiming to determine the incidence of pneumonia in burn patients with inhalation injury using secondary data at Burn Center Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya in the period of January 2015 - December 2018.Results: There were 5 cases of pneumonia in 14 burn cases with inhalation injury (35.71%). Respectively, 2 and 3 cases were found in 2017 and 2018. There were 2 female (40%) and 3 male (60%) patients, with age varied within 28-73 years old. The burn area of burn patients with inhalation injury and pneumonia were found by 15%, 20%, 24%, 32% and 71%, or within the classification of 11-20% burn area, and most complication found was hypoalbuminemia, as much as 3 cases (60%).\Conclusion: Most pneumonia in burn cases with inhalation injury was occurred in 2018, dominated by male patients. The age of the patient were ranging from early adulthood to elderly. Most burns were in the range of 11-20% burn area with the most complication found was hypoalbuminemia.

Introduction: Preterm birth becomes a global problem due to its high rate of morbidity and mortality. In 2010, it is estimated approximately 15 premature birth cases per 100 lives birth in Indonesia. This study aimed to analyze the maternal risk factors towards preterm birth at Universitas Airlangga Hospital Surabaya in 2017-2018.Methods: This was observational analytic study using case-control approach to observe 178 medical records at Universitas Airlangga Hospital Surabaya. The population of this study was women who had preterm and aterm birth. The sample consisted of case group and control group which were convenient to exclusion and inclusion criteria. Univariate analysis was used to observe the relationship between dependent and independent variable. The significance value was p ≤ 0.05. The data were analysed using SPSS.Results: The research samples consisted of 89 case groups and 89 control groups. The case sample characteristic showed that 36% patients had overweight BMI; 62.9% patients had normal/hypotension; 69.7% patients gave birth to male baby; and 82% patients had no history of disease.There was no patient who used drugs and substance abuse (0%). Mothers aged 20 years old and older than 35 years old had OR = 2.13 (95% CI : 1.106-4.11) to become preterm birth. The primiparous women had risk for preterm birth 2.978 folds (95%, CI : 576-5.625) higher.Conclusion: There was a relationship between maternal age and parity to preterm birth. There was no relationship between maternal education, maternal occupation, hemoglobin levels, history of obstetric complications, and multiple pregnancy to preterm birth.
Closed Form Solution of Plane-Parallel Turbulent Flow Along an Unbounded Plane Surface
Authors: Sun Bohua
Published: January 2022

In this paper, a century-old problem is solved; namely, to find a unified analytic description of the non-uniform distribution of mean velocity across the entire domain of turbulent flow for all Reynolds numbers within the framework of the Prandtl mixing length theory. This study obtains a closed form solution of the mean velocity profile of plane turbulent flow for the Prandtl theory, and as well an approximate analytical solution for the van Driest mixing length theory. The profiles of several useful quantities are given based the closed form solution, such as turbulent viscosity, Reynolds turbulent stress, Kolmogorov's scaling law, and energy dissipation density. The investigation shows that the energy dissipation density at the surface is finite, whereas Landau's energy dissipation density is infinite. Strictly speaking, the closed form solution reveals that the universality of the turbulent velocity logarithmic profile no longer holds, but the von K\'arm\'an constant is still universal. Furthermore, a new formulation of the resistance coefficient of turbulent flow in pipes is formulated in implicit form.
Estimating the Male to Female Ratio in Autistic Spectrum Disorder, Defining and Calculating the Biases and Finding the True Number of Girls.
Authors: McCrossin Robert
Published: January 2022

The ratio of males to females with ASD is generally quoted as 4:1 though it is believed that there are biases preventing females being diagnosed and that the true ratio is lower. These biases have not been clearly identified or quantified. Starting with a clinical dataset of 1711 children <18 years old four different methods were employed in an inductive study to identify and quantify the biases and calculate the proportion of females missed. A mathematical model was constructed to compare the findings with current published data. The true male to female ratio appears to be 3:4. Eighty per cent of females remain undiagnosed at age 18 which has serious consequences for the mental health of young women.
A Scoping Review of Interventions Delivered by Peers to Support the Resettlement Process of Refugees and Asylum Seekers
Authors: Mahon Daryl
Published: January 2022

The aim of this scoping review is to conduct a systematic search of the literature as it pertains to interventions delivered by peers to refugees and asylum seekers during the resettlement process. A PRISMA-compliant scoping review based on Arskey and O'Malley's (2006) five steps was used. Four databases, Scopus, Embase, Ebsco, and ScienceDirect were searched for peer-reviewed articles published in English from 2000-2021. Studies were included if they reported on interventions, outcomes or the training received by adult peers to support refugees and asylum seekers during the resettlement process. Of an initial 632 journal articles retrieved, 14 met the inclusion criteria for this review.

Most included studies were conducted in Western high-income countries, with the exception of one. Studies were heterogeneous in terms of the nationalities of peers and those receiving peer interventions; the outcomes reported on; the content of interventions, and the methodologies used. Findings suggest that peer interventions seem to be effective in addressing many of the challenges faced by refugees and asylum seekers. Community integration, acculturation and psychological distress are some of the key benefits. When such interventions are co-produced in participatory research involving refugees, asylum seekers and the civil society organisations that support this population, they are naturally culturally responsive and can therefore address issues relative to different ethnic needs during the resettlement process. This is the first scoping review to be conducted in this area and adds to what is a very limited body of research.

Yeast Hybrids in Brewing
Authors: Winans Matthew J.
Published: January 2022

: Microbiology has long been a keystone in fermentation and the utilization of yeast biology rein-forces molecular biotechnology as the pioneering frontier in brewing science. Consequently, modern understanding of the brewer’s yeast has faced significant refinement over the last few decades. This publication presents a condensed summation of Saccharomyces species dynamics with an emphasis on the relationship between traditional ale yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and the interspecific hybrids used in lager beer production, S. pastorianus. Introgression from other Sac-charomyces species is also touched on. The unique history of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Saccharo-myces hybrids are exemplified by recent genomic sequencing studies aimed at categorizing brewing strains through phylogeny and redefining Saccharomyces species boundaries. Phylogenetic investigations highlight the genomic diversity of Saccharomyces cerevisiae ale strains long known to brewers by their fermentation characteristics and phenotypes. Discoveries of genomic contribu-tions from interspecific Saccharomyces species into the genome of S. cerevisiae strains is ever more apparent with increased investigations on the hybrid nature of modern industrial and historical fermentation yeast.
Synchronized Attractors and Phase Entrained with Cavity Loss of the Coupled Laser’s Map

Published: January 2022

The laser differential equations are used to transform them into identical coupled maps. Valuable results are deduced during analytical and numerical studies on cavity loss. Phase and spatiotemporal synchronized attractors are observed via quasi-chaos under a certain range of controlling parameters, and symmetry breaking of chaotic attractors due to collision with their basin boundaries, and transpire differently from the previous attractors. During the numerical simulation, it is found that the sequence of repeated strange attractors if the coupling strength further increases, which are orthogonal mirror images (the dynamics of the system is the same at different values of controlling parameters). Moreover, it can help us to predict future problems and their solutions based on current issues, if we develop this model in more general.

Published: January 2022

Synthetic cannabinoids are a series of synthetic substances that mimic the effects of natural cannabinoids and produce a much stronger toxicity than natural cannabinoids, which have become the most abused family of new psychoactive substances. A solid-phase extractive-liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole/linear ion trap mass spectrometry method was developed to determine 11 synthetic cannabinoids in rat urine. The factors affecting recovery were optimized, and Oasis HLB was selected to extract synthetic cannabinoids simultaneously. The results showed that the linear correlation coefficients of the synthetic cannabinoids ranged from 0.993 to 0.999, and the limit of quantitation ranged from 0.01 to 0.1 ng/mL, and the spiked recoveries ranged from 69.90% to 118.39%. This method has the advantages of good purification ability, simple operation, and good reproducibility, and can be used for the high sensitivity analysis of various synthetic cannabinoids in urine.
Formation of Benign Tumours by Stem Cell Misregulation
Authors: Valet Matthieu , Narbonne Patrick
Published: January 2022

Our tissues usually have just the right number of cells to optimally fulfil their function. Not enough cells within a tissue can lead to dysfunction, while too many cells result in a tumour. Yet, how this homeostatic balance is maintained remains poorly defined. Most differentiated cells within tissues have a finite lifespan and need to be replaced at a corresponding pace to maintain tissue homeostasis. These new differentiated cells are generated by proliferation of the stem/progenitor cells that serve the tissue. Work in simple invertebrates clearly suggests stem cells respond to at least two types of signals: niche signaling and growth factors. Niche signals promote the undifferentiated state by preventing differentiation, and thus allow for stem cell self-renewal. Growth factor sources comprise a systemic input reflecting the animal’s nutritional status, and a localized, homeostatic feedback from the tissue that the stem cells serve. That homeostatic signal couples stem cell proliferation rates to the tissue’s need for new differentiated cells. Evidence from simple organisms suggests two types of benign tumours can arise from deregulation of either niche or homeostatic signaling. Namely, constitutive niche signaling promotes the formation of undifferentiated “stem cell” tumours, while defective homeostatic signaling leads to the formation of differentiated tumours. We propose that these principles may be conserved and underlie benign tumour formation in humans, while benign tumours can evolve into cancer.
