The Historicity of Materialism and the Critique of Politics
Authors: Demirović Alex
Published: February 2021

This chapter proposes one definition of critical materialism and a critique of politics based on several authors from Marx to Foucault. This critique occurs in several stages and unfolds as a criticism of universals such as human freedom, general interest, political rationality, or reconciled political community. The decisive materialist-historical question, then, is which of the different materialities is dominant at a certain point of time. I argue that Marx condemns politics as an illusion. He thought of ‘political reason’ as a form of ‘spiritualism’. Hence, critical materialism argues for a move away from the illusion of politics.

Published: February 2021

Triangulated graphs have many interesting properties (perfection, recognition algorithms, combinatorial optimization algorithms with linear complexity). Hyper-triangulated graphs are those where each induced subgraph has a hyper-simplicial vertex. In this paper we give the characterizations of hyper-triangulated graphs using an ordering of vertices and the weak decomposition. We also offer a recognition algorithm for the hyper-triangulated graphs, the inclusions between the triangulated graphs generalizations and we show that any hyper-triangulated graph is perfect.

A representação social da ‘Outra Infância’ no contexto de oitocentos e parte de novecentos em Portugal
Authors: Martins Ernesto Candeias
Published: February 2021

Abordamos a representação social da infância portuguesa, mas especificamente a ‘Outra infância’, aquela que estava à margem da escolarização e normalização social da época e, por isso, necessitada de proteção, assistência e educação. O arco histórico de análise é o século XIX e parte do XX, norteado pelos seguintes objetivos: analisar a representação social da infância nas vertentes médico-assistencial - higienista e na da infração ou desviação social; compreender os processos de proteção, de assistência socioeducativa ou de correção. A representação social, daquela infância relacionava-se com as suas situações sociais e condições de conflito a que estava submetida, pelo facto de viver na rua, e com as formas de relação com o mundo social, o que implicava a sua diferenciação com as ditas normais. A metodologia argumentativa é de índole histórico-documental, fenomenológica (fenómeno a ‘outra infância’) e hermenêutica. A imagem da infância foi influenciada por várias ciências, a partir finais do séc. XX e pelas políticas sociais, que culminou com dispositivos de proteção, de assistência, de institucionalização terminando no direito tutelar de menores (iniciado em 1911) e, principalmente nos direitos da criança, no séc. XX. O estudo pretende dar contributos à História [social] da Infância em Portugal, inserindo-os também na História [social] da Educação. Com este olhar, discurso e objeto de estudo, poderemos enriquecer aqueles campos da História, já que se trata de um tema de certa atualização socio histórica e cultural, relativo aquele campo disciplinar da ‘Outra infância’ como um novo objeto de investigação na nova história (Children Studies).

Flow parsing and biological motion
Authors: Mayer Katja M. , Riddell Hugh , Lappe Markus
Published: February 2021

Flow parsing is a way to estimate the direction of scene-relative motion of independently moving objects during self-motion of the observer. So far, this has been tested for simple geometric shapes such as dots or bars. Whether further cues such as prior knowledge about typical directions of an object’s movement, e.g., typical human motion, are considered in the estimations is currently unclear. Here, we adjudicated between the theory that the direction of scene-relative motion of humans is estimated exclusively by flow parsing, just like for simple geometric objects, and the theory that prior knowledge about biological motion affects estimation of perceived direction of scene-relative motion of humans. We placed a human point-light walker in optic flow fields that simulated forward motion of the observer. We introduced conflicts between biological features of the walker (i.e., facing and articulation) and the direction of scene-relative motion. We investigated whether perceived direction of scene-relative motion was biased towards biological features and compared the results to perceived direction of scene-relative motion of scrambled walkers and dot clouds. We found that for humans the perceived direction of scene-relative motion was biased towards biological features. Additionally, we found larger flow parsing gain for humans compared to the other walker types. This indicates that flow parsing is not the only visual mechanism relevant for estimating the direction of scene-relative motion of independently moving objects during self-motion: observers also rely on prior knowledge about typical object motion, such as typical facing and articulation of humans.

Inner and Outer Orbits in 13 Resolved Hierarchical Stellar Systems
Authors: Tokovinin A.
Published: February 2021

Orbits of inner and outer subsystems in 13 triple or higher-order stellar systems are computed or updated using position measurements and, in three cases, radial velocities. The goal is to determine mutual orbital inclinations, period ratios, and masses to complement the statistics of hierarchical systems. The effect of the subsystems on the motion in the outer orbits (wobble) is explicitly modeled to determine inner mass ratios. Stars studied here (HD 5408, 8036, 9770, 15089, 29310, 286955, 29316, 140538, 144362, 154621, 156034, 185655, and 213235) are bright and nearby (from 15 pc to 150 pc). Their inner periods range from 1.7 yr to 49 yr, and the outer periods from 83 to 2400 yr. Some long-period outer orbits are poorly constrained. Four astrometric inner orbits and one outer orbit are computed for the first time.

Ancient, very metal-poor (VMP) stars offer a window into the earliest epochs of galaxy formation and assembly. We combine data from the H3 Spectroscopic Survey and Gaia to measure metallicities, abundances of α elements, stellar ages, and orbital properties of a sample of 482 VMP ([Fe/H] < −2) stars in order to constrain their origins. This sample is confined to 1 ≲ ∣Z∣ ≲ 3 kpc from the Galactic plane. We find that >70% of VMP stars near the disk are on prograde orbits and this fraction increases toward lower metallicities. This result is unexpected if metal-poor stars are predominantly accreted from many small systems with no preferred orientation, as such a scenario would imply a mostly isotropic distribution. Furthermore, we find there is some evidence for higher fractions of prograde orbits among stars with lower [α/Fe]. Isochrone-based ages for main-sequence turn-off stars reveal that these VMP stars are uniformly old (≈12 Gyr) irrespective of the α abundance and metallicity, suggesting that the metal-poor population was not born from the same well-mixed gas disk. We speculate that the VMP population has a heterogeneous origin, including both in situ formation in the ancient disk and accretion from a satellite with the same direction of rotation as the ancient disk at early times. Our precisely measured ages for these VMP stars on prograde orbits show that the Galaxy has had a relatively quiescent merging history over most of cosmic time, and implies the angular momentum alignment of the Galaxy has been in place for at least 12 Gyr.
Particle Acceleration by Relativistic Magnetic Reconnection Driven by Kink Instability Turbulence in Poynting Flux–Dominated Jets

Particle acceleration in magnetized relativistic jets still puzzles theorists. In this work, we investigate the acceleration of particles injected into a three-dimensional relativistic magnetohydrodynamical jet subject to current-driven kink (CDK) instability. We find that, once turbulence driven by CDK fully develops, achieving a nearly stationary state, the amplitude of excited wiggles along the jet spine attains maximum growth, causing disruption of the magnetic field lines and the formation of several sites of fast reconnection. Low-energy protons injected into the jet at this state experience exponential acceleration, mostly in directions parallel to the local magnetic field, up to maximum energies

eV for

G and

eV for

G. The Larmor radius of the particles attaining these energies corresponds to the size of the acceleration region (∼the diameter of the perturbed jet). There is a clear association of the accelerated particles with regions of fast reconnection. In the early nonlinear growth stage of the CDK, when there are no sites of fast reconnection yet, injected particles with initially much larger energy are accelerated by magnetic curvature drift. We have also obtained the acceleration time due to reconnection with a dependence on the particles’ energy,

. The energy spectrum of the accelerated particles develops a power-law index

 ∼ −1.2 in the beginning, in agreement with earlier works. Our results provide a multidimensional framework for exploring this process in real systems and explain their emission patterns, especially at very high energies, and associated neutrino emission recently detected in some blazars.

Authors: Amin Tarek Tawfik , Galal Yasmine Samir , Shaheen Dina Samy , Salem Marwa Rshad
Published: February 2021

OBJECTIVES: The current study was conducted to assess the effect of an educational intervention on knowledge status and attitudes toward sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in a sample of women in reproductive age.
METHODS: One group quasi-experimental study was conducted at one primary health care center in Egypt; included 200 women selected by systematic sampling method. Health education intervention was designed and implemented to fill the knowledge gap revealed in pre-test in relation to prevention, early detection and STIs treatment.
RESULTS: The results revealed that knowledge about types, modes of transmission and causative agents of STIs, symptoms and complications of STIs, and prevention and treatment increased in post-test (p = 0.001), with significant increase of total knowledge score in post-test (p = 0.001). The attitudes toward STIs were also improved at post-test compared to pre-test.
CONCLUSION: The study reflected the need for implementing educational programs to improve STIs’ knowledge and increasing women’s readiness for STIs screening.

Published: February 2021

BACKGROUND: Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) has been declared a world pandemic by World Health Organization (WHO). The ability of COVID-19 to be transmitted quickly causes fear and excessive worry in certain groups of people, such as the elderly and those with chronic diseases, including oncology and gynecology patients and the caregivers around them (family members).
AIM: This study investigates knowledge, attitude, and negative emotions among gynecologic oncology patients and their families during the COVID-19 pandemic at Hasan Sadikin Public Hospital.
METHODS: In this descriptive study, 100 patients with gynecologic malignancies at Hasan Sadikin Hospital, Bandung, Indonesia, were assessed in May 2020–April 2020, who asked for their current knowledge, attitude, as well as negative emotions through Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-42).
RESULTS: The average age of the respondents in this study was 45.50. There were 31 respondents with low-level knowledge, 36 with moderate-level knowledge, and 33 with a high level of knowledge about COVID-19. Based on the attitude assessment, only 44 respondents (44%) always wore masks, 54 (54%) kept a distance of 1 meter, and 42 (42%) kept away from the crowd. An evaluation using the DASS-42 showed that 3, 4, and 0 subjects experienced severe depression, severe anxiety, and severe stress, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: All Indonesian citizens must take necessary measures to prevent COVID-19, including wearing masks, maintaining a minimum distance of 1 m, and washing hands. This study found that not all respondents could comply with the health protocols that were carried out to prevent the transmission of COVID-19. Respondents who experienced severe depression and severe anxiety needed further attention to determine whether they required counseling with a psychiatrist.

Ensino de ciências: O enfoque CTS e a Ilha Interdisciplinar de Racionalidade (IIR)
Authors: Souza Nely , Almeida Ana
Published: February 2021

A presente pesquisa de natureza teórica, realizada por meio de um estudo bibliográfico, tem como objetivo estimular o debate acerca de uma metodologia ainda pouco usual, a Ilha Interdisciplinar de Racionalidade (IIR). Nela, compartilho reflexões referentes ao ensino de ciências com ênfase no enfoque na Ciência, Tecnologia e Sociedade (CTS). Relato que, ao viajar entre os caminhos percorridos pelo ensino de ciências, encontrei algumas concepções pedagógicas que orientaram e outras que ainda orientam a metodologia, o currículo e a prática dos professores. Em busca de uma estratégia que satisfizesse meus anseios a respeito de estratégias de ensino que viabilizassem o ensino crítico e participativo, continuei a viagem e desembarquei na “plataforma” CTS, onde fui, gentilmente, convidada a me abrigar naquele espaço. Aceitei o convite e me propus a conhecer melhor as ideias daqueles que ali estavam; desfrutei do conhecimento de importantes personagens; aprendi bastante com os demais participantes e decidi então, na expectativa de, também, tornar-me protagonista desse enredo, procurar algo diferente, que pudesse ajudar-me a encontrar respostas em como efetivar a alfabetização científica e tecnológica. Fui, nessa ocasião, apresentada às Ilhas Interdisciplinares de Racionalidade. Estratégia complexa? Talvez. Contudo, muito interessante e enriquecedora. Desta forma, dediquei-me a compreendê-la melhor e, neste artigo, compartilho as descobertas dessa agradável estadia nessa “plataforma”, onde pude considerar que, além de ser uma metodologia desafiadora, o enfoque CST e a IIR mostram resultados valorosos para o atual cenário frente ao ensino de ciências, que almeja a formação de sujeitos capazes de interpretar o mundo em que vivem e tomar decisões fundamentadas a respeito de problemas sociais que também são de caráter científico.

Authors: Diop Sérigné
Published: February 2021

En Afrique, la recherche fondamentale et critique sur les innovations en contrôle de gestion se cantonne toujours dans l’étude de la diffusion de l’ABC classique, abstraction faite de l’appropriation des outils de contrôle gestion conçus à partir de l’ABC classique. En utilisant le cadre théorique de la théorie positiviste des outils de gestion, cette présente enquête auprès des entreprises sénégalaises utilisatrices de l’ABC a permis d’étudier le degré d’utilisation de quatre outils de contrôle de gestion dérivés de l’ABC, à savoir : l’analyse à base d’activités de la rentabilité des clients et canaux de distribution, l’analyse des activités (ABM) et la réduction des coûts, l’établissement de budgets classiques et à base d’activités et l’établissement de coûts cibles à base d’activités. Il sera fait abstraction du rôle des agents de changement dans leur adoption-utilisation par les gestionnaires dans les entreprises au Sénégal (logique instrumentale).

Pas le temps pour le choc, place à l’action et à la réaction. L’annonce du confinement et de ses contraintes laisse vite la place à la réflexion et à l’organisation. Une photographie de la situation en début de confinement et les attestations viennent modifier le quotidien du confiné. Les tensions montent quelque peu à mesure que les jours passent. Un premier prolongement amène une multiplication des appels, quelques craquages (cris, colères, contraventions). Le second fait place à une certaine lassitude, moins lourde et ancrée dans le quotidien. Le 11 mai sonne comme une libération pour beaucoup, bien que certains ne soient pas encore de retour au travail. Progressivement, avec de nouvelles règles (port du masque, distanciation), un retour à la normale se fait. Qu’en sera-t-il pour l’avenir ? L’incertitude reste de mise.
Edible insects and food safety: allergy
Authors: Ribeiro J.C. , Sousa-Pinto B. , Fonseca J. , Fonseca S. Caldas , Cunha L.M.
Published: February 2021

Edible insects are a unique food source, requiring extensive allergenic risk assessment before its safe introduction in the food market. In a recent systematic review, crustacean allergic subjects were identified as a risk group due to cross-reactivity mainly mediated by tropomyosin and arginine kinase. Immunologic co-sensitisation to house dust mites (HDM) was also demonstrated, but its clinical significance and molecular mechanisms were unclear. Furthermore, case reports of food allergy to insects were also analysed but lack of contextual information hindered the analysis. The main goal of this review is to provide an update of new information regarding food allergy caused by insects, covering relevant topics considering the guidelines for allergic risk assessment in novel foods. Newly published studies have further confirmed the role of tropomyosin as a cross-reactive allergen between edible insects and crustaceans, although there are some questions regarding the immunoglobulin E (IgE)-reactivity of this allergen in mealworm species. Furthermore, only specific treatments (enzymatic hydrolysis combined with thermal treatments) were able to eliminate IgE-reactivity of edible insects. Primary sensitisation (e.g. to Tenebrio molitor) has also been shown to be an important pathway for the development of food allergies, with responsible allergens being dependent on the route of sensitisation. However, more studies are necessary to better understand the potential of primary sensitisation causing cross-reactivity with other insect species, crustaceans or HDM. The clinical significance and molecular mechanisms involved in cross-reactivity between edible insects and HDM are still unclear, and a major focus should be given to better understand which allergens cause co-sensitisations between HDM and edible insects and what is the risk of HDM-only allergic subjects consuming edible insects. Contextual information about the reported cases of allergic reactions to insects have further demonstrated that insect-rearing workers and subjects with allergic diseases (in particular, food allergy to crustaceans) are the major risk groups.

Black soldier fly larvae (Hermetia illucens) (BSFL) are a promising protein source for the feed industry. They can be used to convert organic waste into valuable biomass, and due to their chemical composition, they are a valuable ingredient for several industrial sectors. To use BSFL as a feed ingredient, their chemical safety must be guaranteed. The composition of their rearing substrate is one of the crucial factors for safety, since it might introduce safety risks by bioaccumulation of various (in)organic compounds (e.g. toxic metals, mycotoxins, pesticides, etc.) in BSFL. Though several organic waste streams are potential and valuable rearing substrates for BSFL, the European Union currently does not allow their use due to safety knowledge gaps. This has prompted researchers to conduct several exposure experiments by artificially spiking chemicals to the rearing substrate of BSFL to investigate such risks. Here, we present a critical overview of the current body of literature on this topic and discuss the main findings, gaps, and recommendations for future research. Overall, BSFL do not seem to accumulate contaminants above the European feed legislation limits, except for certain metals (i.e. cadmium, lead, and zinc), which can jeopardise the chemical safety of the BSFL. For all compounds explored to date, except for cyromazine and pyriproxyfen, their presence in the substrate has no effect on the larval growth or survival rate. However, the remaining knowledge gaps concerning other potential hazardous chemicals (e.g. plasticisers, flame retardants, etc.) and their degradation pathways in BSFL still warrant an appropriate chemical safety assessment and can be a reason why several organic waste streams are not yet allowed to grow BSFL. The risks induced by the potential presence and accumulation of other chemical compounds requires further research to enable the safe exploitation of BSFL.
The new packaged food products containing insects as an ingredient
Authors: Reverberi M.
Published: February 2021

This article focuses on a newly defined category of insect as food: packaged processed insects (PPIs). PPIs integrate dry insects (in pieces or in powder) in packaged food products such as snacks, pasta, or baked goods. PPIs have been on the market for a few years, and they are still far from being mainstream. The commercial challenges they face, all of which are addressed in this article, include production costs, certifications and regulations, marketing communication, and retail distribution and consumer targeting. The western preconception of insect eating, which has been extensively covered in the existing literature, is also taken into account, but from the food makers’ angle: how to deal with it when selling PPIs. Eleven PPI makers have contributed to this article by agreeing to a standardised interview protocol about their PPI products. Their names and a summary of the information collected is found in Supplementary material S1.
Mild Behavioral Impairment: A New At-Risk State for Alzheimer's Disease?
Authors: Sweeder Logan Alison , Yannuzzi Amanda Ley , Hill Nikki
Published: February 2021

Improving our response to Alzheimer's disease (AD), including prevention and early intervention, is critical for maximizing healthy aging outcomes. Identifying older adults at highest risk for AD would provide an opportunity to offer support, plan for the future, and implement strategies to enhance cognitive and functional outcomes. The emergence of neuropsychiatric symptoms may be one indicator of early AD-related cognitive decline, but distinguishing symptoms from those due to other causes can be challenging. Mild behavioral impairment (MBI) describes an at-risk state for cognitive decline characterized by the late-life onset of neuropsychiatric symptoms. In this article, we discuss the current conceptualization of MBI, the potential for its characteristic neuropsychiatric symptoms to indicate risk for future cognitive decline, and present potential clinical implications.

Published: February 2021

The authors describe the case of a 25-year-old male who presented with a cilioretinal artery occlusion secondary to posterior scleritis. The patient had a history of juvenile spondyloarthritis that evolved into ankylosing spondylitis. Cilioretinal artery occlusion is a rare complication of posterior scleritis, having only been described once previously in the literature. This is the first reported case of a cilioretinal artery occlusion in posterior scleritis that was associated with an underlying systemic disease.

On $ n $-slice algebras and related algebras
Authors: Guo Jin-Yun , Xiao Cong , Lu Xiaojian
Published: February 2021

The \begin{document}$ n $\end{document}-slice algebra is introduced as a generalization of path algebra in higher dimensional representation theory. In this paper, we give a classification of \begin{document}$ n $\end{document}-slice algebras via their \begin{document}$ (n+1) $\end{document}-preprojective algebras and the trivial extensions of their quadratic duals. One can always relate tame \begin{document}$ n $\end{document}-slice algebras to the McKay quiver of a finite subgroup of \begin{document}$ \mathrm{GL}(n+1, \mathbb C) $\end{document}. In the case of \begin{document}$ n = 2 $\end{document}, we describe the relations for the \begin{document}$ 2 $\end{document}-slice algebras related to the McKay quiver of finite Abelian subgroups of \begin{document}$ \mathrm{SL}(3, \mathbb C) $\end{document} and of the finite subgroups obtained from embedding \begin{document}$ \mathrm{SL}(2, \mathbb C) $\end{document} into \begin{document}$ \mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb C) $\end{document}.
Concentration Dependence of the Surface Tension of Three and Four-Component Systems with Peculiarities in the Surface Tension Isotherms of Lateral Binary Melts
Authors: Dadashev R.Kh. , Kutuev R.A.
Published: February 2021

The experimental study results of the melts concentration dependence of the surface tension of the four-component indium-tin-lead-bismuth system and its constituent binary systems of indium-tin, indium-lead, indium-bismuth, tin-lead, tin-bismuth, lead-bismuth are presented in the paper. It is shown that the concentration dependence of the melts surface tension of the In-Sn-Pb-Bi four-component system can be predicted from the data on ST (surface tension) values of lateral binary systems. Features in the ST isotherms in the form of a minimum are observed only in the indium-tin lateral system from all lateral binaries. A distinctive feature of the detected minimum is that the minimum depth slightly exceeds the experimental error. Therefore, in addition to the fact that the area of average compositions was studied more thoroughly, we carried out the surface tension measurements by two independent methods. The experimental data obtained by both methods coincide within the experimental error and indicate the extremum availability on ST isotherms. Thus, ST experimental studies by two independent methods confirmed the presence of a flat minimum on ST isotherms of the indium-tin binary system increasing the reliability of the obtained data. The obtained outcomes and their comparison with experimental data have shown that the considered models for predicting surface properties based on data due to similar properties of lateral binary systems adequately reflect the experimental dependences. However, the prediction model based on Kohler's method of excess values describes the experimental curves more accurately.
Influence of the Microstructure on the Damping Properties of Stress-Strain Tool Systems in the Processing of Welded Structures from Dissimilar Steels

Published: February 2021

Currently, welded heterogeneous structures are widely used in mechanical engineering. The mechanical processing of such complex products is accompanied by a self-oscillating process. For reducing the intensity of vibration, boring bar with an adjustable stress-strain state has to be used. Studies that were carried out by authors made possible to establish the influence of the microstructure of steels after heat treatment and in various stress states on the damping capacity. Εstablished influence allowed to select steel for the manufacture of a boring bar, in the inner cavity of which an expanding cone was installed for creating of a stress-strain state. Subsequent investigations as well made possible to establish the influence of the microstructure and the stress-strain state of the boring bar on the dynamic characteristics of the boring process of the welded structure. Such an approach enables preliminarily estimating the level of vibration amplitude while boring a heterogeneous welded structure, and to provide the specified parameters for the surface roughness of a precision product at the manufacturing stage.

Spruce budworm, Choristoneura fumiferana (Clemens) (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae), is a destructive defoliator found throughout the Nearctic boreal forest. This pest has a broad geographic range and shows regional variation in key life history traits. These population differences may represent important adaptations to local environmental conditions and reflect underlying genetic diversity. Existing laboratory colonies of spruce budworm do not capture this regional variation, so we established five new spruce budworm colonies from across its range to explore regional adaptations among spruce budworm populations within common garden experiments. We present methods for establishing new spruce budworm laboratory colonies from wild populations. We describe the process of flushing, rearing, and disease screening used on these new populations to produce healthy disease-free laboratory stocks.
