THE EFFECT OF Al2O3, CeO2, AND ZrO2 ON THE PERFORMANCE OF Cu/ZnO CATALYST IN METHANOL SYNTHESIS FROM BIOMASS PYROLYSIS SYNGAS
Authors: Simanungkalit Sabar Pangihutan , Jones Isabelle , Zhang Zhezi , Zhang Dongke
Published: November 2022

The effect of Al2O3, CeO2, and ZrO2 as promoters on the catalytic activity of a Cu/ZnO catalyst for methanol synthesis from biomass pyrolysis syngas was investigated. The catalysts were prepared using a coprecipitation method, with the wt.% ratio of Cu:Zn:M = 68:28:4 (M = Al, Ce, and Zr). The activity of the catalysts was tested to determine the most appropriate promoter for the Cu/ZnO catalyst to accommodate methanol production from low stoichiometric number (SN) syngas. The experiment was performed in a continuous flow fixed bed reactor at 513 K, 4 MPa, gas hourly space velocity (GHSV) of 2000 h-1, and 24 h time on stream using simulated biomass pyrolysis syngas with a composition of 25% H2, 25% CO, 20% CH4, 20% CO2,10% N2 (SN = 0.111). The effluent gas was analyzed every 6 h using gas chromatography to determine the conversion of gases and production of hydrocarbons. The catalysts were characterized by N2 adsorption/desorption, Powder X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and Temperature Programmed Reduction of hydrogen (H2-TPR) techniques. It was found that the promoter in Cu/ZnO-based catalysts plays a crucial role in the methanol selectivity and catalysts stability, yet does not significantly affect feed conversion. Nevertheless, the findings will significantly contribute to developing a robust catalyst that can be used for a direct route for methanol production from biomass pyrolysis syngas.
Proceedings report of webinar on mental health and bullying
Authors:   Academy of Science of South Africa (ASSAf)
Published: November 2022

Bullying among adolescents has been identified as a significant public health concern. It is a life-changing experience that has drastically affected more than a third of adolescents in schools globally. There are important negative consequences to victims, perpetrators, schools, families and communities at large. Several studies have shown that victims of bullying are at increased odds of adverse outcomes including physical health problems, emotional and behavioural problems, and psychiatric disorders. At the mental health level, evidence has linked being a victim of bullying to higher rates of depression, insomnia, feelings of hopelessness, loneliness, low self-esteem, suicide ideation and suicide attempts8. Due to the potential mental health effects on everyone involved, it’s important to heed the warning signs of bullying and to highlight intervention and prevention strategies. This webinar sought to understand the impact of bullying on mental health, the mental health of those who experience and witness it and to identifying intervention and prevention strategies.
Pediatric COVID-19 Vaccination: A Description of Adverse Events or Reactions Reported in Kansans Aged 6 to 17
Authors: Tri Anna , Mills Kale , Nilsen Kari
Published: November 2022

Introduction. There have been widespread concerns about the safety of the COVID-19 vaccines, particularly when it comes to pediatric populations, and it is important to provide information for parents and guardians to make informed decisions. This study sought to identify the adverse events and reactions (AERs) associated with the COVID-19 vaccines in Kansans aged 6 to 17.
Methods. The US Department of Health and Human Services’ “Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System” (VAERS) database was searched from May 11th, 2021, to April 30th, 2022, for AERs related to COVID-19 vaccines in adolescents ages 6 to 17. Results were grouped by vaccine manufacturer and patient gender.
Results. 159 individuals reported a total of 409 AERS, with an average of 2.6 per person (± 1.7; median = 2; range 1 to 10). Females (n = 95) reported 237 AERs, with an average of 2.5 each (±1.7; median = 2; range 1 to 8); while males (n = 64) reported 172 AERs, with an average of 2.7 each (±1.8; median = 2; range 1 to 8). The most common adverse event associated with Pfizer vaccination was syncope/fainting.
Conclusions. COVID-19 vaccines have undergone intensive monitoring and safety regulations since the onset of the coronavirus. With over 591 million doses administered, there is compelling evidence that the COVID-19 vaccines are safe and effective. Informing the public about the potential AERs of the COVID-19 vaccines in children can help to alleviate vaccine hesitancy and strengthen vaccination confidence.

Published: November 2022

The corn leaf aphid is considered an important pest associated with maize. This study aimed to discover the trophic associations around Rhopalosiphum maidis in Manabí, Ecuador. Maize leaves were sampled to determine the numbers of parasitized aphids, and the identities of predators and parasitoids. Nine taxa of natural enemies were detected: the primary parasitoid was Lysiphlebus testaceipes Cresson, 1880 (Hymenoptera: Braconidae); the hyperparasitoid Syrphophagus aphidivorus (Mayr, 1876) (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae); the predatory hoverfly Ocyptamus dimidiatus (Fabricius, 1781) (Diptera: Syrphidae), four species of coccinellids, Cheilomenes sexmaculata (Fabricius, 1781), Cycloneda sanguinea (Linnaeus, 1763), Hippodamia convergens Guerin-Meneville, 1842 and Paraneda pallidula guticollis (Coleoptera: Coccinellidae) and an assassin bug, Zelus sp. (Hemiptera: Reduviidae). A parasitoid, Pachyneuron formosum Walker, 1833 (Hymenoptera: Pteromalidae) emerged from hoverfly pupae. This study reports the presence of the parasitoids S. aphidivorus and P. formosum in Ecuador for the first time. These results increase the knowledge of a four-trophic level relationship (host plant – pest – parasitoids, predators – hyperparasitoids) in a maize agroecosystem as a fundamental basis for biological control programs.
The phenological stages of forestry species under the impact of climate change• Early data
Authors: Dimitra Papagiannopoulou , T Tsitsoni
Published: November 2022

Urban areas have a dual role in climate change· they are major contributors to climate change as they produce more than 70 percent of greenhouse gas emissions and they also accept the impact of it. Urban trees have great value in urban ecosystems because of their role as carbon sinks, so they contribute to climate change mitigation. The aim of this paper is to collect data about the impact of climate change on forestry species in urban areas via the science of phenology. In recent years, via phenology, the observation and study of the effects of climate change are possible, as there appears to be a shift in the start of biological events, and also a change in their duration. These changes in the seasonal activity of plants, from time to time, are a sensitive but perfectly visible indicator of changes in the functioning of ecosystems. Phenology refers to the recording of dates in which different phases of the plant’s life cycle such as budburst, flowering, dormancy, and hibernation have been observed both in species and in plant communities. Temperature, solar radiation, and water availability are the three factors that affect plant phenology. To appreciate the impact of climate change on the phenological stages of forestry species, three Phenological Monitoring Areas (PMA) were created in three urban spaces in Thessaloniki, in December 2020, within the framework of the project LIFE CliVut (Climate Value of Urban Trees) LIFE18 GIC/IT/001217. Each PMA contains 20 species (10 species of trees and 10 species of shrubs), and 100 individuals (5 individuals per species). The monitoring of the phenological stages of the forestry species was carried out throughout a year on a weekly basis according to the protocol that was created in the frame of the project taking into consideration the BBCH scale.

Each language has its own rules and pattern and a certain tendency. Language games are the rules of language for a particular purpose. Nawal Sa'dawi uses denotative meaning as criticism and disagreement about existing social phenomena. Therefore, this study aims to determine the form of language games in the book "al-Mar'ah wa al-Jins" by Nawal Sa'dawi based on the perspective of Ludwig Wittgenstein. This study uses an interpretation method to express linguistic diction in books and their meanings as human expressions. This study uses Wittgenstein's hermeneutic approach to reveal linguistic facts from the book's narrative. The source of this research data is taken from the book "Al-Mar'ah wa al-Jins" by Nawal Sa'dawi. Data collection techniques in this study used reading techniques and note-taking techniques. The analysis of this research uses the technique of analyzing the philosophy of language from Ludwig's perspective. The results of this study indicate that there are four kinds of language games in the book "al-Mar'ah wa al-Jins" by Nawal Sa'dawi, namely: (1) emphasis; (2) feminist language; (3) sarcasm; and (4) subtle persuasion. This language game aims to reveal facts and as a form of assertiveness from its users upon request or support.

In the face of the process of urbanization, population growth, increasing population needs and modern lifestyle changes, infrastructure development in urban centers around the world is also growing rapidly. Developments of urban space are some of which are not well coordinated and have left traces of waste space or interstitial space in the urban context, many researchers, and figures in the field of urbanization argue that this uncoordinated waste space leaves a variety of detrimental impacts on the city and community in the city. As a result, many researchers, and figures from various fields, especially in the field of urban design, have contributed knowledge to various solutions and opportunities to take advantage of this interstitial space. Studies have found that in recent times various approaches have been taken to utilize this interstitial space by performing various intervention strategies which each have a different impact on the quality of success of activating this space. This paper examines the concept of interstitial space that exists with the process of urbanization, the quality of public space in the city based on theoretical development by previous researchers and examines real case studies empirically in the approach of developing interstitial space towards space that benefits the city and society in it. A comprehensive empirical examination conducted through several case studies analyzed and compared based on figure theory regarding the quality of urban public space in major city with high density.

Covid -19 which has started to spread to Malaysia in 2020 has changed the lifestyle of the people in terms of economic, social and environmental. The new living norms introduced have changed lives and have stunted the economic growth of the country especially when many companies have closed their businesses. An impact from the movement control order (MCO) implemented has an impact on the employment sector. This is because, many employment sectors had to be closed in an effort to help the government curb the spread of COVID-19 from continuing to spread in the community. Most companies, business operations, private organizations and the government were shut down immediately during MCO, which has resulted in many companies not being able to cover their expenses, causing companies to lay off employees. Although it affects everyone but the disabled are more impressed with the limitations they have experienced before. The purpose of this study is to find out the perception of persons with disabilities (PwDs) on the potential of upgrading the accessibility of private premises to be PwDs friendly as a physical stimulus for the development of PwDs businesses and small enterprises. Therefore, this study uses an exploratory mixed method design approach by starting the study by reviewing the documents related to government financial assistance and subsequently distributing the survey form. The conclusion of this study will highlight the perceptions of PWDs in the field of entrepreneurship in physical premises and government financial assistance that has been provided before and during the pandemic in Malaysia.
Caring Ecologies of the New Right and Left: Populist Performances of Care During the Pandemic
Authors: Santamaría Sara García
Published: November 2022

This article examines leaders’ ability to take care of the people during a global pandemic. The article focuses on two populist leaders in Spain: Ada Colau, Barcelona’s mayor and a global municipalist referent, and Isabel Díaz Ayuso, president of the Community of Madrid and a referent of the new right in Europe. The analysis is informed by theoretical discussions on care, examining how populists perform micro and macro practices of care(lessness) as reflected on their Instagram accounts. How has a global pandemic affected populists’ unspoken role of taking care of “their people”? Do they understand care as an individual or as a collective enterprise that challenges capitalist forms of annihilation? The article takes a feminist approach by challenging traditional male-centric analyses of populism. Methodologically, the article advances our understanding of discursive, visual, and affective approaches to digital storytelling. The data is analyzed through a combination of content analysis, a performative approach to populism and visual rhetorical analysis. The results show important differences in how right- and left-wing populists create their ethos as carers and establish emotional connections with those they care about, performing radical care versus neoliberal carelessness.

GEORGE BELLAS GREENOUGH’S GENERAL SKETCH OF THE PHYSICAL AND GEOLOGICAL FEATURES OF BRITISH INDIA (1854, 1855): ITS PRODUCTION, DISTRIBUTION, VARIANTS AND SURVIVORSHIP
Authors: TOLAND CHRISTOPHER
Published: November 2022

Greenough’s large-scale geological map of India (1854) represents a significant landmark in the history of geological cartography in India, it being the first geological map of the entire Indian sub-continent. This paper attempts to provide an account of the production, distribution, variants and survivorship of this pioneering map. The geological information contained on the map is based almost entirely on published data sources, Greenough never having visited India, yet the map is far more than a mere compilation. Its construction required the preparation of a topographic base map, geological interpolation over large swathes of unmapped territory, the organizing of mainly lithological descriptions into a unified chronostratigraphic order, and the integration of palaeontological information. By modern standards the delineation of strata on the map is imprecise, stratigraphic resolution is poor, and structural data are entirely lacking, yet it remained unrivalled as the only available geological map of all-India until the Geological Survey of India produced a smaller-scale map some twenty-four years later. In terms of areal coverage and paucity of reliable information, Greenough’s India map represents a far more ambitious and pioneering undertaking than his more famous geological map of England and Wales.

202 copies of the map were produced, sixty of which were purchased by the East India Company, while a further forty or so were gifted by Greenough to various public institutions and distinguished geologists. Edward Stanford acquired publishing rights to the map in 1855 and continued to offer copies for sale until at least 1898. A recent survey has identified three variant states of the map and has confidently located thirty-four surviving copies.

For reasons outlined here, Greenough’s India map has languished in obscurity since its publication. It deserves to be better known.
THE RAILROAD SURVEYS (1853–1855): EARLY GEOLOGICAL MAPPING IN CALFORNIA BY WILLIAM BLAKE AND THOMAS ANTISELL
Authors: AALTO KENNETH R.
Published: November 2022

William Phipps Blake (1826–1910) and Thomas Antisell (1817–1893) served as geologists on Pacific Railroad Surveys undertaken in California during 1853–1855 for the purpose of determining feasible railroad routes. They produced some of the earliest geologic accounts, maps and cross sections for the region, for which surveying parties assessing right-of-way grades provided a fair amount of topographic control. They also produced a regional stratigraphy, chiefly lithology-based but with some biostratigraphic control for Cenozoic map units. The extent of Neogene uplift of the Coast Ranges and of Pleistocene lakes in the Mojave Desert region was recognized according to elevated shorelines and orogenic activity by recent volcanism and earthquake activity.
PHYSIOGRAPHIC LANDFORM CARTOGRAPHY: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF CONTRIBUTIONS BY ARMIN K. LOBECK (1921) AND ERWIN RAISZ (1939)
Authors: VANHORN JASON E.
Published: November 2022

Landforms of the United States (1939) by Erwin Raisz is one of the best examples of cartographic excellence depicting the landscape based on underpinning geological structure. With the block diagram as the foundation for landform mapping, this paper details the development of the landform map comparing works and lives of two of the most prominent physiographic landform cartographers, Erwin Raisz and Armin K. Lobeck, who each had Dr. Douglas Johnson as a PhD advisor at Columbia University. Comparing the 1921 Physiographic Diagram of the United States by Lobeck with the 1939 Raisz map, this paper argues that Raisz far exceeded Lobeck in the articulation of the landscape by way of the map.
Coping and Adapting to Climate Change in Australia: Yoga Perspectives
Authors: David Tricia , Buchan Jena , Nalau Johanna
Published: November 2022

Scientists caution against ignoring human-induced climate change and related health repercussions, with a growing body of literature highlighting the mental health effects of climate change and the importance of understanding coping and adaptation strategies. Less is known, however, about sustainable personal practices fortifying mental health in the context of climate change. The present study sought to investigate how long-term yoga practitioners (yoga therapists or yoga teachers) in Australia with a lived experience of climate change–related events are coping and adapting. The aim was to better understand participants’ reports of climate change–related experiences and how yoga influences their mental health and choices in the face of climate change. Eleven in-depth telephone interviews were conducted and analyzed using an interpretive phenomenological methodology. Participants reported that their ongoing relationship with yoga influences how they cope with climate change-related stressors and their being-in-the-world, and how concern for all life bolsters their responses to climate change. The results illustrate the part yoga may play in supporting long-term practitioners to prepare for, cope with, and respond to climate change events and impacts. Offering inclusive, interdisciplinary yoga therapy and community-based networks fostering ethical living and response flexibility may prove beneficial not only for the mental health and coping ability of participants, but for the planet.
Possibilities of diagnosing stab-cut wounds in living persons using computed tomography results
Authors: Leonov Sergey V. , Pinchuk Pavel V. , Shakiryanova Juliya P. , Troyan Vladimir N.
Published: November 2022

Currently, modern research methods such as computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging have been introduced into the medical and diagnostic practice of large hospitals. These research methods are used almost everywhere for the diagnosis of various injuries, and their results, together with the medical documents of the victims, law enforcement officials, and courts provide state forensic medical expert institutions for the production of forensic medical examinations. The study of computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging results allows solving expert questions in examinations and studies of living persons.
The article presents a case from expert practice demonstrating the possibility of establishing the morphology and localization of stab-cut injuries, number of traumatic effects, and direction of wound channels using the results of in vivo computed tomography and three-dimensional modeling. In the described expert case, initially, in the submitted medical documents, data were contradictory about the number, localization and mechanism of formation of wounds. To eliminate existing contradictions, the scars on the victims body and results of a computed tomography upon admission were examined. For a more complete visualization of external injuries, a three-dimensional model of the victims body was recreated from computed tomography data. The results of computed tomography and three-dimensional modeling made it possible to clearly recreate the picture of the victims injuries and answer questions about the mechanism and conditions of their infliction.
The described case demonstrates the possibilities of expert research and new methodological approaches to solving forensic problems, which is currently quite relevant, since virtopsia has been actively developing in forensic medicine in recent years. The proposed research techniques applied to a corpse with stab wounds will make it possible to more accurately visualize the direction and shape of the wound canal.
An Exploratory Study on the Supply Chain Structure of the Last Mile Delivery Industry Using Inter-Industry Analysis
Authors:   The Korean Logistics Research Association, Kim Yun-Jin , Kim Yong-Jeong
Published: November 2022

The purpose of the study is to identify the degree of production induction effects and industrial synergy effects of the last mile delivery service industry. It also connects the industrial linkage structure of the last mile delivery industry with the concept of the supply chain. Ultimately, it identifies the structure of the service supply chain centered on the last mile delivery. It approaches research problems from a service science perspective. The philosophical basis of the study is the concept of service dominant logic. In addition, the research methodology is an inter-industry analysis of economics, and WIOD is used for analysis data. Petroleum product manufacturing and warehousing are the backward industries of the last mile delivery industry. And it seems clear that wholesale and retail industry are forward industries. Therefore, the last mile delivery industry plays a role in connecting the relationship between the supply industry, the manufacturing industry, and the distribution industry on the supply chain. In addition, the supply chain architecture of the last mile delivery service is significantly different from the existing manufacturing-oriented supply chain structure. Academically, the concept of a traditional manufacturing-oriented supply chain has been expanded to the service sector. And it identified the supply chain structure of the last mile delivery service. In practice, if a strategic industry is selected with limited resources, it will be an important indicator for determining investment priorities.
Enhanced Regional Earthquake Catalog with Alaska Amphibious Community Seismic Experiment Data
Authors: Ruppert Natalia A. , Barcheck Grace , Abers Geoffrey A.
Published: November 2022

The Alaska Amphibious Community Seismic Experiment (AACSE) comprised 75 ocean-bottom seismometers and 30 land stations and covered about 650 km along the segment of the subduction zone that includes Kodiak Island, the Alaska Peninsula and the Shumagin Islands between May 2018 and September 2019. This unprecedented onshore-offshore dataset provided an opportunity to compile a greatly enhanced earthquake catalog for the region by both increasing the number of detected earthquakes and improving the accuracy of their source parameters. We use all available regional and AACSE campaign seismic data to compile an earthquake catalog for the region between Kodiak and the Shumagin Islands including the Alaska Peninsula (51° N–59° N, 148° W–163° W). We apply the same processing and reporting standards to additional picks and events as the Alaska Earthquake Center currently uses for compilation of the authoritative regional earthquake catalog. Over 7200 events (both newly detected and previously reported) have been processed with AACSE data. We added about 30% more events, 60% more phase picks, lowered the magnitude of completeness by about 0.2 on average across the region, and improved location errors. All data have been published in public data archives. In addition, we test the machine-learning earthquake detection and picking algorithm EarthquakeTransformer (EQT) on the AACSE seismic dataset, comparing EQT-determined P and S picks with the new catalog. EQT is entirely trained on land data, whereas AACSE is amphibious. Overall, EQT finds 59% of P and 63% of S arrivals in the catalog within 300 km epicentral distance. The percent of catalog picks detected by EQT varies inversely with earthquake epicentral distance, and EQT performs particularly poorly on data from earthquakes recorded by instruments in the outer rise.

El enfoque metodológico implementado fue el cuantitativo, con un diseño exploratorio y descriptivo, respaldado en la técnica de encuesta donde se utilizaron como instrumentos de recolección de información el Cuestionario de Violencia Ocupacional de Blanch y la Escala de Estrategias de Coping Modificada, los cuales permitieron evidenciar el desconocimiento que los trabajadores tienen del concepto de violencia, su existencia, clasificaciones, y consecuencias físicas y psicológicas que genera en las personas afectando sus dimensiones personales, familiares y sociales. Los trabajadores de la institución prestadora de servicios de salud son víctimas de violencia ocupacional tipo II, perpetrada por usuarios, y hacen uso de un grupo de estrategias de afrontamiento para protegerse física y psicológicamente de los efectos negativos que genera la violencia. También se reconoce la incidencia que tiene la presencia y prevalencia de incidentes violentos en el bienestar de los empleados, puesto que las víctimas presentan síntomas físicos y psicológicos durante y después de la agresión.

Published: November 2022

El presente estudio tuvo por objetivo analizar la relación entre la inteligencia emocional y la agresión en estudiantes de secundaria. Se seleccionó de manera aleatoria una muestra de 567 estudiantes ( hombres y mujeres) de 12 a 17 años de edad de cinco instituciones educativas estatales de la ciudad de Trujillo. En ese sentido, se les aplicó el Cuestionario de Agresión (AQ) de Buss y Perry y el Inventario de Inteligencia Emocional de Bar-On. Los resultados evidencian la existencia de correlación significativa e inversa de la inteligencia emocional con la agresión en general y sus factores (agresión verbal, agresión física, hostilidad e ira).
Silencing of HN1L suppresses the proliferation and migration of cancer cells
Authors: Varisli Lokman , Tolan Veysel
Published: November 2022

Background and purpose: HN1L is a member of the HN1 gene family and shares about 30% similarity with HN1 which is another member of the family on the primary protein sequence. Since HN1 is an important gene that is involved in various cellular mechanisms and also differentially expressed in carcinogenesis, we investigated the effect of HN1L on some malignant behaviors of various cancer cells.Material and methods: Co-expression analysis, Gene Ontology enrichment, and database searches were performed to predict the cellular roles of HN1, and to investigate its expression in cancers and their corresponding normal tissues. Western blotting and Real-Time PCR were used to compare the expression of HN1L in the normal prostate cells and prostate cancer cells. Cell proliferation and migration assays were used to investigate the effects of HN1L depletion on cell proliferation and migration.Results: The results of co-expression and Gene Ontology enrichment analyses showed that HN1L is co-expressed with DNA replication and DNA damage response/repair associated genes. The database search results revealed that HN1L expression increases in at least 10 diverse cancer types compared to their normal corresponding tissues. This result was confirmed in the prostate cancer cell model, experimentally. Silencing of HN1L inhibited proliferative and migrative behaviors of prostate, breast, colon, and cervix cancer cells.Conclusions: HN1L probably is a novel proto-oncogene that is involved in the DNA metabolism-related mechanisms, and high HN1L level promotes further proliferation and migration in the cancer cells.

Intertextuality and Homosexuality in Alison Bechdel’s Fun Home
Authors: Sobczak Izabela
Published: November 2022

This article is an interpretative analysis of the comic book Fun Home by Alison Bechdel with particular attention to the intertextual play with the book In Search of Lost Time by Marcel Proust. The author of the comic uses a modernist writer's imagery to create – both in the graphics and the text – a platform for communication with her own father, Bruce. Thus, the mediated language of metonymy, the figures of Thanatos, Eros, floral motifs, become one of the ways of representing homosexual love. Proustian insinuations remain the domain of the father, while the daughter's side contains a comics work serving a double, transgenerational emancipation.
Sanmao's Literary Creation Style
Authors: Guo Zhen
Published: November 2022

Sanmao was formerly known as Chen Ping, a contemporary Taiwanese female writer and traveler. Sanmao is one of the few contemporary prose writers. Although many scholars believe that her works have some novel elements, a kind of work is accepted by readers with what kind of style, it has a substantial impact on what kind of style, so Sanmao is placed into the ranks of prose writers. For Sanmao, writing constitutes her unique life form. Sanmao's literary creation style has a very high literary research value, which is closely related to her innate personality, as well as her understanding of life itself and her unique literary interpretation skills. To be precise, Sanmao does not have the serious creative mission of a pure literary writer, nor will it deliberately pursue the social effectiveness of her works. For her, innovation is neither the great cause of the country, nor the masterpiece of the past dynasties. This article explores Sanmao's literary creation style through the three writing characteristics of writing freely, “depending on benevolence, swim in art” and integration of “Inovel” creation skills.
A Preliminary Study on China English in Translation of Traditional Chinese Medicine Terms
Authors: Li Xue , Wang Yan
Published: November 2022

China English, standard English with Chinese characteristics, exists largely in English translation of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) terms with unique Chinese philosophy and culture. This study conducts a translation criticism on English Translation of TCM terms selected from Classified Dictionary of Traditional Chinese Medicine from the perspective of China English under the guidance of Coordination Theory of Translation, that is, translators are required to coordinate all aspects and relationships in translation to the greatest extent. The key issues to be resolved in this study are as follows: 1) What are the word-formation methods of China English in the translation of TCM terms? 2) How should English translations of TCM terms in Classified Dictionary of Traditional Chinese Medicine be evaluated? 3) What strategies, methods, and techniques should be adopted in English translation of TCM terms? Through the translation criticism of typical cases, conclusions are made as follows: firstly, domestication and foreignization strategies should be used together in a coordinated way on translation of TCM terms; secondly, as for terms whose corresponding expressions cannot be found in Western medicine, the translator should coordinate the use of various translation methods and techniques, such as literal translation plus free translation, transliteration with annotation, and literal translation with annotation. The findings of this study are expected to promote the normalization and standardization of English translation of TCM terms as well as provide some implications for future studies on TCM translation.
Comparing the Move Structure and Thematic Progression Pattern of Chinese and Native Speakers’ English Research Article Abstracts (RAA)—A Corpus Based Study of Aeronautics RAA
Authors: Huang Siming , Song Meiying
Published: November 2022

Abstract reflects the main content of a research article. Linguists have made great efforts to analyze the structure of abstracts by using genre analysis. However, there have been little quantitative studies to compare Chinese scholars RA’s English abstract with that of the native speakers in the field of aeronautics. In particular, few studies have focused on analyzing them by means of combing the theory of genre analysis and thematic progression. This study analyzed the move structure and thematic progression pattern of 60 English abstracts selected from two aeronautics journals respectively (AIAA, CJA). Of the 60 English abstracts, 30 are written by Chinese scholars and 30 by native speakers. The results show that the frequency, order of moves, and the choice of thematic progression patterns in each move differ a lot in the two corpora. This study will not only enrich the empirical study of abstract analysis but also have some implications for academic paper writing, publishing, and teaching.
Comparative study of functional outcomes of open versus arthroscopic surgery of lateral epicondylitis in a tertiary care hospital
Authors: Kundu Bishal , Kumar Debangshu
Published: November 2022

Background: Lateral epicondylitis, a degenerative tendinopathy due to microtears in extensor tendons caused by repeated pronation-supination is commonly managed by NSAIDS, physiotherapy, local steroid injections and braces. Although most are self limited, some recalcitrant cases lead to chronic pain and reduction in quality of life. Surgical management by open or arthroscopic means is a viable option but there is a gap of knowledge in current literature regarding superiority of one over the other.Methods: A total of 32 patients with recalcitrant lateral epicondylitis admitted from March 2019 to August 2020 were enrolled and randomized into two groups, receiving either open or arthroscopic debridement of diseased tendons of extensor carpi radialis longus, brevis and communis. Patients were assessed for pain, functional outcome and complications with a 6 month follow-up.Results: VAS score for pain and DASH score for functional outcome improved in all patients after surgery and there was no difference between the two groups. Although mean duration of surgery was significantly longer by arthroscopy, time to return to work was significantly shorter in this group (p<0.001). Difference in complication rate was not statistically significant.Conclusions: Based on this study, surgical management both open and arthroscopic are equally effective for recalcitrant lateral epicondylitis in terms of pain, functional score and patient satisfaction; arthroscopy however shows an earlier return to work. Either can be chosen depending on available skill, equipment and patient demands.
