Dans le souci d’une anthropotopie de la trace
Authors: Chanvillard Cécile
Published: September 2023

Assurant ses prises conceptuelles dans les profondeurs étymologiques du français, une parole lacanienne et une maxime kahnienne, le texte de Cécile Chanvillard « Dans le souci d’une anthropotopie de la trace » ressert et ordonne, d'abord, les liens de causalité entre la matière, l’ombre, le lieu, le langage et l’anthrope. Il observe ensuite la fonction véri-ficatrice de l’ombrage dans une esquisse ambigüe de L. I. Kahn alors tenté par l’hybridation sans doute insoluble de deux archétypes architecturaux : le « socle » et « l’en-clos ».
La terre, l’objet, le rythme, la jouissance, l’architecture
Authors: Vase Pierre
Published: September 2023

"... elle (l'architecture) échappe à ce type de sémiologie qui privilégie l'écart et l'articulation, (...) elle n'appartient pas en priorité aux formes claires de l'éveil, mais bien à celles qui lient la culture humaine à son propre assoupissement. La part culturelle qui s'indétermine dans l'opaque et le compact. La forme qui prend la forme de l'étirement et du reversement continu dans l'informe terrestre. "
L’homme sans mur :
Authors: Jungers Jean-Jacques
Published: September 2023

Empruntant à Jacques Lacan le modèle du nœud borroméen, Jean-Jacques Jungers définit les concepts de « scène », d’« obscène » et de « monde » pour mieux déplier les opérations au travers desquelles l’architecture, simultanément, met en forme (scène) nos lieux de vie, tout en produisant un reste (obscène), qu’elle dissimule pour mieux garantir notre quiétude (monde). Illustrant ce mécanisme, à ses yeux caractéristique de la manière dont l’animal humain « civilise » son milieu, Jean-Jacques Jungers analyse une reconstitution du Temple d’Apollon de Didymes. L’architecture conforte et ré-conforte, mais c’est au prix à la fois d’un rejet et d’une dissimulation. Alors se pose une question inquiétante : que nous cache notre architecture ?

Published: September 2023

Objetivo: Determinar la relación de la dependencia funcional del receptor del cuidado y la sobrecarga del cuidador con la calidad de vida del cuidador familiar de personas con tratamiento sustitutivo renal. Materiales y método: Estudio descriptivo y correlacional en cuidadores y receptores de cuidado asistentes a un centro de terapia renal de la ciudad de Montería, Colombia. La muestra estuvo conformada por 237 diadas. La captura de la información fue realizada mediante una ficha de caracterización, la escala WHOQOL-BREF, el índice de Barthel y la prueba de Zarit. Los datos fueron analizados mediante estadística descriptiva y la prueba de correlación de Spearman, previa aplicación de la prueba de Kolmogorov Smirnov con corrección de Lilliefors. Resultados: No se observó relación entre la dependencia funcional del receptor del cuidado y la calidad de vida del cuidador. Se encontró relación estadísticamente significativa entre la sobrecarga del cuidador con la dimensión física de la calidad de vida (p=.048), no así con la calidad de vida global y con el resto de las dimensiones. Conclusión: En el desarrollo de intervenciones de enfermería se hace necesario considerar la sobrecarga del cuidador para mejorar su calidad de vida física.

Dolor en recién nacidos:Una revisión de la literatura
Authors: Santamaria Castiblanco Natalia , Polo Rivas Daniela Natalia , Tovar Añez María Belén
Published: September 2023

El dolor es definido como una experiencia sensitiva y emocional desagradable ocasionada por una lesión tisular real o potencial. En los recién nacidos, esta interpretación del dolor es subjetiva debido a la inmadurez de todos sus sistemas, lo cual determina una disminución en la capacidad de controlar y expresar el dolor. Adicionalmente, tienen la capacidad de desarrollar respuestas frente al dolor que pueden generar efectos adversos a largo plazo si es tratado de manera insuficiente, lo cual puede conllevar a un aumento de la morbimortalidad, alteraciones en el comportamiento y en el desarrollo neurológico. Por lo anterior, se han desarrollado diferentes escalas que evalúan el dolor en esta población con base en sus características fisiológicas, autonómicas y conductuales. Será importante así, realizar un manejo de forma dirigida, tanto farmacológico como no farmacológico según las condiciones del niño, que eviten las complicaciones previamente descritas. En el presente artículo, se realiza una revisión bibliográfica sobre la fisiología del dolor, las escalas de medición y las recomendaciones de manejo disponibles en la literatura.
Duración de la consulta médica y tiempo de espera, ¿existe un punto de equilibrio para el médico y el paciente?
Authors: Izquierdo Condoy Juan Sebastian , Ruiz Sosa Carlos Alexander
Published: September 2023

La relación médico-paciente se encuentra expuesta a un sin número de factores con capacidad de modificarla de manera positiva y negativa. La consulta o atención médica es un evento que se practica en todos los escenarios, por tanto, la variabilidad de sus características será tan grande como la de las personas que se llevan a cabo. Se ha planteado utilizar la duración de la consulta médica como indicador de satisfacción sobre la atención que reciben los pacientes obteniendo como resultado un amplio campo de información donde predomina una actitud negativa de los pacientes hacia el proceso de atención médica, por su parte, los profesionales de la salud han expresado sus puntos de vista respecto a la problemática fundamentándose en disponer del tiempo necesario durante la atención para la búsqueda de conseguir la excelencia. Sin embargo, en la actualidad los datos disponibles muestran enormes discordancias, que proponen como imposible la tarea de definir un periodo de duración “ideal” para la consulta médica, dejando de lado que el servicio de atención medica como proceso social otorga obligaciones y derechos que todos los actores debería cumplir.

Authors: Restrepo Pineda Jair Eduardo , Villegas Rojas Soraya
Published: September 2023

Objetivo: Identificar los factores asociados al consumo de sustancias psicoactivas (SPA) en trabajadores sexuales femeninos y masculinos inmigrantes venezolanos residentes en Colombia. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio cualitativo con un enfoque hermenéutico interpretativo, utilizando como técnica de investigación la entrevista semiestructurada, las cuales fueron aplicadas en el Área Metropolitana del Valle de Aburrá, Bogotá D.C. y el Eje Cafetero colombiano, a través de un sistema de muestreo por conveniencia. Resultados: Se realizaron 55 entrevistas en dichas regiones. El 60% de los entrevistados eran hombres cisgénero, 31% mujeres cisgénero y 9% mujeres transgénero. La edad promedio de los participantes fue de 27 años. Se observó que el uso de sustancias psicoactivas en las y los trabajadores sexuales depende de factores de tipo personal y contextual. Los primeros se relacionan con estrategias de afrontamiento frente al estrés y la ansiedad durante el ejercicio del trabajo sexual, así como al uso lúdico y recreativo de estas sustancias, mientras que los factores contextuales están vinculados con el uso compartido SPA con los clientes y el aumento del rendimiento sexual durante el ejercicio del sexo transaccional. Conclusiones: El consumo de sustancias psicoactivas durante el ejercicio del trabajo sexual es multicausal, y, por lo tanto, es fundamental abordar este asunto de forma integral, considerando la interrelación entre el sujeto, la sustancia que se consume y los contextos sociales y sexuales donde se emplea, permitiendo definir las estrategias más pertinentes y apropiadas para disminuir los impactos sobre la salud de los implicados.
Stripped and layered fabrication of minimal surface tectonics using parametric algorithms
Authors: Gokmen Sabri
Published: September 2023

This article describes a parametric design and fabrication workflow influenced by Frei Otto’s form-finding experiments on soap films. The research investigates minimal surface geometry by combining physical and digital experiments in a computational framework. Operating on mesh topology, various parametric design tools and plug-ins in Rhinoceros/Grasshopper are presented to discuss the translation of minimal surfaces to flat strips suitable for planar fabrication using flexible materials. These tools are tested on a case study to show the automated design and manufacture of double-curved surfaces as double-layered strips running in perpendicular directions that can be affixed at point connections for structural stability. The development of the parametric workflow, material constraints, and stripped fabrication of layers are discussed.
A single phase modified Y-source inverter with high voltage gains and reduced switch stresses
Authors: Altintas Hasan Basri , Kulaksiz Ahmet Afsin
Published: September 2023

This study is dedicated to develop a single-phase modified Y-source inverter (m-YSI) topology having a high boost factor and low switch voltage stress by adding a switch to the low voltage region. Thanks to this structure, continuous input current and wide control range are achieved regardless of winding factor. Since an external switch is used in the recommended modified Y-source inverter, the modulation index and duty ratio are controlled independently. Detailed analyses of the modified Y-source inverter were performed using Matlab/Simulink and its performance was compared with conventional Y-source inverters. Compared to selected conventional Y-source inverters, the proposed m-YSI has almost three times less voltage stress. A lower-cost topology has been obtained in which state-of-the-art control methods can be applied, thanks to a wide control range and circuit components with a low power ratio. This proposed model can be used as a double-stage micro-inverter in photovoltaic systems.
On Hermite-Hadamard-type inequalities for systems of partial differential inequalities in the plane
Authors: Jleli Mohamed , Samet Bessem
Published: September 2023

We establish necessary conditions for the existence of solutions to various systems of partial differential inequalities in the plane. The obtained conditions provide new Hermite-Hadamard-type inequalities for differentiable functions in the plane. In particular, we obtain a refinement of an inequality due to Dragomir [On the Hadamard’s inequality for convex functions on the co-ordinates in a rectangle from the plane, Taiwan. J. Math. 5 (2001), no. 4, 775–788] for convex functions on the coordinates.

Published: September 2023

The multi-pass fillet welds of casing pipe were welded onto the in-service pipeline, which is widely used in pipeline repairs. However, the influence of welding heat input of B-type sleeve circumferential fillet weld on the temperature and stress field at the pipe circumferential weld is still unclear. In this paper, a double ellipsoid heat source model is developed to investigate the weld temperature field, residual stress field, and deformation field of the repair welding in service. The results show that the increase of weld heat input can effectively increase the size of the weld pool and the size of the high-temperature zone of the B-type sleeve circumferential fillet weld. And the peak temperature of the inner wall of the pipe girth weld increases with the increase of welding heat input of the sleeve circumferential fillet weld. The axial stress peak of the inner wall of the pipe girth weld reduces with the increase of welding heat input of sleeve circumferential fillet weld, and the axial deformation peak of the inner wall of the pipe girth weld increases first and then decreases with the increase of welding heat input of sleeve circumferential fillet weld.

Scintillation-based X-ray imaging can provide convenient visual observation of absorption contrast by standard digital cameras, which is critical in a variety of science and engineering disciplines. More efficient scintillators and electronic postprocessing derived from neural networks are usually used to improve the quality of obtained images from the perspective of optical imaging and machine vision, respectively. Here, we propose to overcome the intrinsic separation of optical transmission process and electronic calculation process, integrating the imaging and postprocessing into one fused optical–electronic convolutional autoencoder network by affixing a designable optical convolutional metasurface to the scintillator. In this way, the convolutional autoencoder was directly connected to down-conversion process, and the optical information loss and training cost can be decreased simultaneously. We demonstrate that feature-specific enhancement of incoherent images is realized, which can apply to multi-class samples without additional data precollection. Hard X-ray experimental validations reveal the enhancement of textural features and regional features achieved by adjusting the optical metasurface, indicating a signal-to-noise ratio improvement of up to 11.2 dB. We anticipate that our framework will advance the fundamental understanding of X-ray imaging and prove to be useful for number recognition and bioimaging applications.
Topological degeneracy breaking in synthetic frequency lattice by Floquet engineering
Authors: Qiao Xin , Wang Luojia , Li Guangzhen , Chen Xianfeng , Yuan Luqi
Published: September 2023

Synthetic frequency dimensions provide important opportunities to investigate novel topological phenomena. Previously, many theoretical proposals have been studied and relevant experiments have been performed very recently. However, all these works consider models in the weak modulation regime, where static lattice models are constructed. Here we explore a Floquet Su–Schrieffer–Heeger (SSH) model with time-dependent hoppings in the frequency dimension by dynamically modulating ring resonators ultrastrongly, and find that the topological states, originally degenerate in conventional SSH lattices, are separated in eigenenergies. There exists a series of edge states from band folding at the 0 andπenergy bandgaps, which exhibit complex multi-frequency oscillations due to the inclusion of counter-rotating terms with higher order oscillation frequencies. Such a system with stronger modulations can widen the bandgap and therefore it provides an effective way to localize pulses in synthetic frequency dimensions. Our work shows a photonic platform with the synthetic dimension in exploring exotic Floquet topological phenomena and shows potential applications in optical storage and communications.
Compradors of China’s Global Power: The Colonialization of Hungarian and Nicaraguan Academia through Anti-imperialist Tropes
Authors: Palm Daniel
Published: September 2023

Literature discussing imperialism and neo-colonial practices focuses on the alleged power of the West and/or the United States, as well as global neoliberalism. This article argues that neo-colonial knowledge production in the autocratizing regimes of Hungary and Nicaragua reflects the rising importance of China. It shows how both governments seek to set forth new schools of thought suiting their worldview. The People’s Republic of China serves as a narrative fix point for legitimizing dissociative diplomatic agendas via comprador academics supported by their government. In what is presented as changing global orders, China joins Russia as a new counterweight to the presupposed U.S. hegemonic and liberal interests. Besides advocating for new partners in the East, compradors colonializing academia argue for the distinctive needs of their respective nations represented by the government. Interviews, publications, and news reports allow one to reconstruct their colonialization efforts to support such nationalist narratives on China’s rise as a global power.

Global Software Development (GSD) is a contemporary approach to software development that offers numerous advantages, including enhanced cost-effectiveness and timely delivery. It enables access to a vast pool of skilled developers and facilitates the exchange of best practices and innovative ideas within the software industry. However, effective project management plays a vital role in ensuring successful product development. Organizations that achieve project success consistently adhere to well-defined project management methodologies, resulting in desired outcomes within predefined time frames and allocated resources. The success rate of software projects significantly increases with diligent software management efforts. Nevertheless, the distributed nature of GSD presents significant challenges related to collaboration, information dissemination, and process control, which ultimately impede effective development and compromise software quality. In this study, we identify various challenges associated with the GSD process and propose strategies to overcome obstacles to effective project management. Additionally, we introduce a comprehensive framework designed to enhance managerial activities in GSD.

Authors: Bonetto Bárbara , Girotti Sperandio Ana Maria
Published: September 2023

Nas cidades existem espaços abandonados, ou subutilizados, que podem ser aproveitados com ofertas de lazer, cultura e interação social, como interstícios urbanos e suas possibilidades de ressignificação. No contexto da arquitetura, ambientes homeodinâmicos são aqueles que contribuem com a homeostase, preservação e restauração da vida. O objetivo deste artigo foi investigar e refletir em relação às dinâmicas e transformações geradas por ocupações culturais para ressignificação de interstícios urbanos e a relação com saúde e bem-estar. Foi utilizado revisão bibliográfica e relato de experiência para analisar o potencial homeodinâmico da ocupação cultural e inserção deste processo no contexto da OcupaColaborativa em Jundiaí, São Paulo. Foi observado que esta ocupação configurou ambiente homeodinâmico nas esferas biológica, sociocultural e urbana. A ampliação das possibilidades daquele espaço, anteriormente abandonado, atendeu demandas por lazer, cultura, representatividade e pertencimento. O movimento possibilitou uma pluralidade de expressões artísticas e culturais, corroborando com o desenvolvimento de cidades saudáveis.
CASA-RUÍNA

Published: September 2023

O artigo explora as relações entre arte, memória e cartografia ao apresentar o processo de criação de um livro de artista, que objetivou construir uma cartografia do abandono na busca de representar as memórias de uma casa através de poemas e fotografias. O artigo aborda modos de habitar através de autores como Bachelard e Ferreira. O método empregado é a cartografia, e possui como fundamento Kastrup e Rolnik. Propõe-se refletir o que resta de uma casa após a sua ruína? Quando não há mais ninguém para habitá-la? A partir de tais reflexões, o artigo apresenta uma casa ruína, apagada, que desaparece e se desfaz lentamente entre os processos de arruinamento que o espaço-tempo proporciona. Os cômodos se abrem, colocando em exposição fotografias e poemas que podem ser percorridos à deriva.
ENTRE IMAGENS ABANDONOS
Authors: Boeira Bittencourt Lucas , Reyes Paulo , Silva Lopes Fernandes Gabriel , do Canto Wilkoszynski Artur
Published: September 2023

Este ensaio reflete sobre o abandono, partindo de registros fotográficos de uma situação de vulnerabilidade. O enfoque dado é a relação que se estabelece entre a precariedade confrontada com o direito à vida urbana. Como método de abordagem, utiliza-se a montagem, na perspectiva de Georges Didi-Huberman. O objetivo deste artigo é desdobrar, entre imagens, o sentido de abandono. Por um lado, como registro e denúncia por aquele que está fora do problema, por outro lado, como sonho e possibilidade real de uma nova perspectiva da inclusão, por aquele que está dentro. Trata-se de: (i) focar na precariedade da vida, a partir de uma representação decalcada da realidade pelo arquiteto; (ii) posicionar o direito à cidade como vontade de criação e sonho de um existir pelo morador em situação de rua, através de experiências fotográficas do projeto de extensão A cara da rua. Espera-se posicionar o problema do abandono entre uma esfera estética e política como abertura de outros sentidos urbanos possíveis.

Ao preservar o patrimônio é possível garantir suas características para entender e explicar a evolução história e urbana das cidades por meio de heranças objetivas e subjetivas. A relação entre memória urbana e sentimento de pertencimento pode refletir na identidade de cada pessoa, trazendo uma reflexão consciente pela preservação da arquitetura. Por meio de uma revisão bibliográfica e pesquisa documental, este texto objetiva refletir a importância da preservação patrimonial como possibilidade de propiciar o não abandono do patrimônio arquitetônico de forma a instigar nos sujeitos o (re) conhecimento de suas heranças e a preservação da arquitetura patrimonial ainda remanescente nas cidades. Preservar vai além de proteger o patrimônio, haja vista que o patrimônio arquitetônico reforça a identidade e estabelece o sentido de pertencimento das pessoas aos lugares. Logo, a preservação patrimonial deve estar vinculada a todas as camadas da sociedade, auxiliando a montar o quebra-cabeça da história urbana das cidades.

Este trabalho explora as questões habitacionais que os moradores - reassentados em um conjunto habitacional na periferia de Belo Horizonte - enfrentam ao se ver obrigados a morar em um novo lugar e a autoproduzir melhorias habitacionais. Considerando os preceitos da Teoria da Produção do Espaço e da Antropologia Urbana, o trabalho sistematiza as questões habitacionais e os sentidos do abandono, apontados pelos moradores: a busca por um lugar para morar e as condições de vida urbana na região, no conjunto e na unidade habitacional. Durante as visitas de campo, foram empregadas técnicas qualitativas, como a entrevista narrativa e o passeio acompanhado. A intenção é tornar as práticas sócio-espaciais dizíveis por aqueles que tentam resistir ao abandono e instigar caminhos no campo da Arquitetura e do Urbanismo (AU) que contribuam para reverter essa situação encontrada nas tipologias de blocos de apartamentos multifamiliares padronizados, monofuncionais e periféricos, frutos de políticas públicas habitacionais segregadoras. A partir das categorias de abandono encontradas, diretrizes para a tipologia habitacional e políticas públicas são apresentadas, considerando o trabalho de movimentos populares e apoiadores técnicos.

Rapid and Visual Detection of Monkey B Virus Based on Recombinase Polymerase Amplification
Authors: Chen Xinlan , Liu Chenchen , Li Fangxu , Zhou Junhui , Huang Zanheng , Zhang Haili , Wang Hualei , Huang Pei , Cao Zengguo , Chiu Sandra
Published: September 2023

Objective:

Monkey B virus (BV) infection in humans and other macaque species has a mortality rate of approximately 80%. Because BV infects humans through bites, scratches, and other injuries inflicted by macaques, the simple and rapid diagnosis of BV in field laboratories is of great importance to protect veterinarians, laboratory researchers, and support personnels from the threat of infection.

Methods:

Two recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) assays with a closed vertical flow (VF) visualization strip (RPA-VF-UL27 and RPA-VF-US6) were developed that target two conserved genes combined with a one-off, closed visualization strip device. We compared the sensitivities and specificities of the two assays after optimization of the reaction conditions. The performance of RPA-VF-US6 at room temperature was determined to evaluate its potential in point-of-care (POC) testing.

Result:

RPA-VF-US6 specifically detected the positive plasmid control (rather than nucleic acids of herpesviruses) with a detection limit of 28 copies, while RPA-VF-UL27 had cross-reactivity with HSV-1, but even 3.4 copies of plasmid standards were readout by this assay. Moreover, RPA-VF-US6 had excellent performance at room temperature (the detection limit was 2,800 plasmid copies), indicating the potential of RPA-VF-US6 in POC testing.

Conclusion:

We developed two RPA assays for BV visualization diagnosis. RPA-VF-US6 is a simple, rapid, and specific detection method for BV. The entire reaction can be performed at a constant temperature within 30 min, suggesting the potential of RPA-VF-US6 for POC testing in field laboratories without sophisticated instruments.
Haploinsufficiency ofShank3in Mice Selectively Impairs Target Odor Recognition in Novel Background Odors
Authors: Ryndych Darya , Sebold Alison , Strassburg Alyssa , Li Yan , Ramos Raddy L. , Otazu Gonzalo H.
Published: September 2023

Individuals with mutations in a single copy of the SHANK3 gene present with social interaction deficits. Although social behavior in mice depends on olfaction, mice with mutations in a single copy of theShank3gene do not have olfactory deficits in simple odor identification tasks (Drapeau et al., 2018). Here, we tested olfaction in mice with mutations in a single copy of theShank3gene (Peça et al., 2011) using a complex odor task and imaging in awake mice. Average glomerular responses in the olfactory bulb ofShank3B+/−were correlated with WT mice. However, there was increased trial-to-trial variability in the odor responses forShank3B+/−mice. Simulations demonstrated that this increased variability could affect odor detection in novel environments. To test whether performance was affected by the increased variability, we tested target odor recognition in the presence of novel background odors using a recently developed task (Li et al., 2023). Head-fixed mice were trained to detect target odors in the presence of known background odors. Performance was tested using catch trials where the known background odors were replaced by novel background odors. We compared the performance of eightShank3B+/−mice (five males, three females) on this task with six WT mice (three males, three females). Performance for known background odors and learning rates were similar betweenShank3B+/−and WT mice. However, when tested with novel background odors, the performance ofShank3B+/−mice dropped to almost chance levels. Thus, haploinsufficiency of theShank3gene causes a specific deficit in odor detection in novel environments. Our results are discussed in the context of otherShank3mouse models and have implications for understanding olfactory function in neurodevelopmental disorders.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTPeople and mice with mutations in a single copy in the synaptic gene Shank3 show features seen in autism spectrum disorders, including social interaction deficits. Although mice social behavior uses olfaction, mice with mutations in a single copy of Shank3 have so far not shown olfactory deficits when tested using simple tasks. Here, we used a recently developed task to show that these mice could identify odors in the presence of known background odors as well as wild-type mice. However, their performance fell below that of wild-type mice when challenged with novel background odors. This deficit was also previously reported in the Cntnap2 mouse model of autism, suggesting that odor detection in novel backgrounds is a general deficit across mouse models of autism.
Expectation Cues and False Percepts Generate Stimulus-Specific Activity in Distinct Layers of the Early Visual Cortex
Authors: Haarsma Joost , Deveci Narin , Corbin Nadege , Callaghan Martina F. , Kok Peter
Published: September 2023

Perception has been proposed to result from the integration of feedforward sensory signals with internally generated feedback signals. Feedback signals are believed to play an important role in driving false percepts, that is, seeing things that are not actually there. Feedforward and feedback influences on perception can be studied using layer-specific fMRI, which we used here to interrogate neural activity underlying high-confidence false percepts while healthy human participants (N= 25, male and female) performed a perceptual orientation discrimination task. Auditory cues implicitly signaled the most likely upcoming orientation (referred to here as expectations). These expectations induced orientation-specific templates in the deep and superficial layers of V2, without affecting perception. In contrast, the orientation of falsely perceived stimuli with high confidence was reflected in the middle input layers of V2, suggesting a feedforward signal contributing to false percepts. The prevalence of high-confidence false percepts was related to everyday hallucination severity in a separate online sample (N= 100), suggesting a possible link with abnormal perceptual experiences. These results reveal a potential feedforward mechanism underlying false percepts, reflected by spontaneous stimulus-like activity in the input layers of the visual cortex, independent of top-down signals reflecting cued orientations.

SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENTFalse percepts have been suggested to arise through excessive feedback signals. However, feedforward contributions to false percepts have remained largely understudied. Laminar fMRI has been shown to be useful in distinguishing feedforward from feedback activity as it allows the imaging of different cortical layers. In the present study we demonstrate that although cued orientations are encoded in the feedback layers of the visual cortex, the content of the false percepts are encoded in the feedforward layers and did not rely on these cued orientations. This shows that false percepts can in principle emerge from random feedforward signals in the visual cortex, with possible implications for disorders hallmarked by hallucinations like schizophrenia and Parkinson's disease.

Activation of the IκB kinase (IKK) complex has recurrently been linked to colorectal cancer (CRC) initiation and progression. However, identification of downstream effectors other than NF‐κB has remained elusive. Here, analysis of IKK‐dependent substrates in CRC cells after UV treatment revealed that phosphorylation of BRD4 by IKK‐α is required for its chromatin‐binding at target genes upon DNA damage. Moreover, IKK‐α induces the NF‐κB‐dependent transcription of the cytokine LIF, leading to STAT3 activation, association with BRD4 and recruitment to specific target genes. IKK‐α abrogation results in defective BRD4 and STAT3 functions and consequently irreparable DNA damage and apoptotic cell death upon different stimuli. Simultaneous inhibition of BRAF‐dependent IKK‐α activity, BRD4, and the JAK/STAT pathway enhanced the therapeutic potential of 5‐fluorouracil combined with irinotecan in CRC cells and is curative in a chemotherapy‐resistant xenograft model. Finally, coordinated expression of LIF and IKK‐α is a poor prognosis marker for CRC patients. Our data uncover a functional link between IKK‐α, BRD4, and JAK/STAT signaling with clinical relevance.

Pollution and/or environmental damage continues to occur and according to the Environmental Quality Index (IKLH) the environment in Indonesia is increasingly damaged and many parties are harmed both humans and the environment itself but an effective settlement of environmental cases has not been found. Thus it is necessary to think about being able to resolve environmental issues that are effective and consideratejusticethe environment itself. A good and healthy living environment should be realized. This desire can be realized by applying appropriate laws that can deter perpetrators of environmental pollution and/or destruction. The purpose of this research is; to analyze and explain the effective resolution of environmental cases that takes into account the environment itself and the application of criminal law that can deter perpetrators of environmental pollution and/or destruction. The research method used is normative legal research to find the law for an in-concocreto case. Criminal law instruments in the settlement of environmental cases in judicial practice, there are still obstacles in presenting evidence, it is still necessary to think about other issues that are not regulated in the law, especially the formulation of environmental offenses. The use of criminal law instruments is more effective because prosecutors have wider powers of coercion, for example detention, search, and faster execution. Criminal law instruments not only deter people who violate them but are also aimed at other people so they do not commit acts that violate the law if they do not want to be subject to criminal sanctions.

The Covid-19 health pandemic as an example of a form of force majeure can affect how risk is assigned to the parties bound by the agreement regarding the inability to pay in a financing agreement caused by force majeure. The research was conducted using normative legal research methods by examining literature (secondary data). From the results of the research, it can be concluded that a dispute resolution institution or court in dealing with disputes regarding the termination of a financing agreement caused by the debtor’s inability to pay due to the impact of the Covid-19 health pandemic must be able to assess the good faith of the debtor in implementing the financing agreement so that it can present the value of justice in the resolution of related disputes financing agreement. The role of the court is a sign of the presence of the state in presenting the value of social justice for the Indonesian people.

This research aims to develop quality human resources in the Environment and Cleanliness Agency of Badung Regency. The research also compares the Badung Environment and Cleanliness Agency workforce with the Environment Agency officers in Australia. As a law country, Indonesia requires support from various stakeholders, especially law enforcement officials. The definition of law enforcement officers in a narrow sense is the police, prosecutors, and judges, while in a broad sense it is defined by all officers in law enforcement institutions who have the authority to inspect, supervise or enforce laws. The holistic quality of law enforcement officers will build an ideal work ecosystem. In the current condition, many of them are involved in criminal actions such as corruption thus, they do not receive trust from the public. In addition, they are also considered less swift in supervising the community’s actions. That is because of the economic welfare, lack of education, and lack of workers at work. The legal research method used is normative, using a comparative approach and a statutory approach. Nowadays, Badung Regency conditions currently have many lodgings in Bali, Hence the challenge for the Badung Regency Environment and Cleanliness Agency to supervise the construction of the lodging place. The research findings show a challenge in the unequal quantity between officers in the field of supervision who have obtained certificates of competence at the Badung Regency Environment and Cleanliness Agency and the construction of thousands of hotels there. The total shortage of workers at the Badung Regency Environment and Cleanliness Agency is 12 (twelve) workers. While In Australia has sufficient labor and equal pay, especially in the environment department.

[Introducción]: La vertiente Caribe de América Central se encuentra a barlovento de los vientos alisios asociados con la Alta Subtropical del Atlántico Norte y presenta un ciclo anual de precipitación bimodal, donde se observa un mínimo relativo en los meses de septiembre y octubre. [Objetivo]: Caracterizar el descenso observado en las lluvias en esta región en ese bimestre, estimando, para cada evento, las variables asociadas con los valores del día del inicio, día del mínimo, día del final, duración, intensidad y magnitud, en el periodo 1979-2010. [Metodología]: Se usaron 31 registros diarios de estaciones pluviométricas. Se examinó, en cada una de ellas, los meses de julio a noviembre, para encontrar los valores del mínimo, la fecha del mínimo, del inicio y del final, duración e intensidad. Se exploró la ocurrencia de alguna tendencia temporal o espacial en las características de los eventos. Por último, se revisaron diferentes índices climáticos y fuentes documentales para identificar las posibles causas sinópticas de los descensos más fuertes en las lluvias. [Resultados]: El inicio de los eventos se observó alrededor del 3 de septiembre, su mínimo el 23 de septiembre y el final 12 de octubre, con una duración aproximada de 39 días. Los eventos tienden a suceder primeramente en las estaciones ubicadas al noroeste del istmo. Los eventos más secos sucedieron bajo condiciones propicias para la ocurrencia de vientos con componente suroeste-oeste sobre la región. [Conclusiones]: El conocimiento sobre estas características de la precipitación ayuda en la planificación de sectores socioeconómicos claves en América Central ante eventuales eventos hidrometeorológicos adversos.

[Introduction]: The sustainability of homes is one of the most significant challenges today. Activities that accelerate environmental degradation are developed on them: poor disposal of urban solid waste, excessive consumption of electricity and water, and use of fossil fuels, among others. [Objective]: To determine the level of sustainability of urban households in the municipality of Macuspana, Tabasco, Mexico. [Methodology]: 370 urban households representative of the total number of urban dwellings inhabited in the city were evaluated, with a confidence level of 95 %. A Sustainability Assessment Framework for Urban Households (MESHU) created from the selection, measurement, and percentage ratio of social, economic, and environmental indicators is proposed. 30 sustainability indicators divided into the following attributes were evaluated: self-management, adaptability, environmental culture, coexistence and productivity. [Results]: The sustainability level of the homes was 45 %. In summary, they are pretty sustainable. [Conclusions]: The sustainability evaluation of urban homes allowed an approximation of the reality of the practices and use of natural resources in daily life. At the same time, it is evident that homes have a culture toward sustainability.
