Mimicry and the Native American ‘Other’
Authors: Byer Tia
Published: July 2019

This paper will address the sustained feeling of separation and delineation in Zitkála-Šá’s literature and Homi Bhabha’s postcolonial theorization, which discuss the difficulties of speech and language in a postcolonial context. I analyse the survival of Native American Culture during late nineteenth-century assimilation, in Zitkála-Šá’s ‘The School Days of an Indian Girl’, and evaluate Homi Bhabha’s ground-breaking research in employing colonial mimicry to usurp colonial power discourses. When former colonial subjects appropriate the colonizer’s language, psychological barriers such as perceived native cultural inferiority transpire. Adhering to an Anglo-American Education, Zitkála-Šá becomes victim to cultural shame and a consequent splitting-of-the self. Bhabha’s theory however, purports to provide a means of overcoming the barrier presented by cultural difference, by implying that imitation of a colonial language ensures camouflage-like protection for the colonial subject which in turn enables them to occupy a dual position in society that is both within their cultural heritage and the colonial environment of ‘civilization’. The extent, to which this is readily achievable, becomes contestable when read alongside Zitkála-Šá. I challenge the penetrable strivings of Bhabha’s theory, by revealing the flaws in his deconstructionist postcolonialism. My examination of power discourses in each text identifies cultural assimilation as an invisible barrier.
Testing the predictive strength of the comparative method: an ongoing experiment on unattested words in Western Kho‐Bwa languages
Authors: Bodt Timotheus A. , List Johann‐Mattis
Published: July 2019

Although it is well‐known to most historical linguists that the comparative method could in principle be used to predict hitherto unobserved words in genetically related languages, the task of word prediction is rarely discussed in the linguistic literature. Here, we introduce 'reflex retrodiction' as a new task for historical linguistics and report on an ongoing experiment in which we use a computer‐assisted workflow to retrodict reflexes for so far unobserved words in eight varieties of Western Kho‐Bwa (a subgroup of Sino‐Tibetan). Since, at the time of writing this report, the experiment is still ongoing, we do not report concrete results, but instead provide an estimate of our expectations by testing the performance of the computational part of our workflow on existing language data. Our results suggest that reflex retrodiction has the potential of becoming a useful tool for historically oriented fieldwork.
Variational Quantum Computation of Excited States
Authors: Higgott Oscar , Wang Daochen , Brierley Stephen
Published: July 2019

The calculation of excited state energies of electronic structure Hamiltonians has many important applications, such as the calculation of optical spectra and reaction rates. While low-depth quantum algorithms, such as the variational quantum eigenvalue solver (VQE), have been used to determine ground state energies, methods for calculating excited states currently involve the implementation of high-depth controlled-unitaries or a large number of additional samples. Here we show how overlap estimation can be used to deflate eigenstates once they are found, enabling the calculation of excited state energies and their degeneracies. We propose an implementation that requires the same number of qubits as VQE and at most twice the circuit depth. Our method is robust to control errors, is compatible with error-mitigation strategies and can be implemented on near-term quantum computers.
“Historical Avanguard” of the 1960-th: Features of Manifestation in the Tatar Poetry
Authors: Zagidullina Dania F.
Published: July 2019

In the article specifics of the vanguard phenomena in the Tatar poetry of 1960-s are revealed. On material of the analysis of the extensive case of works of R. Gatash, S. Khakeem, R. Fayzulin, Rob. Akhmetzyanov, etc. it is established that vanguard literature is created with adressing to the prepared reader and characterized by such lines as intellectuality and philosophicality. It is oppositional in relation to official ideology and reflects critical evaluation of the orders existing in the country by means of Aesopian language, expansion of semantic range of traditional images, uses of methods of symbolical typification. The typological community with “historical vanguard” in the Russian literature of the same period is revealed and processes of national and cultural identification of literary and art systems are characterized. Concepts “home ground”, “the people (nation)”, “our past” became the key categories of vanguard in the Tatar poetry of the middle of the XX century promoting creation of new contours of the literature.
The Poetics of Gatash in Russian Translations
Authors: Nagumanova Elvira F.
Published: July 2019

The article is devoted to the consideration of the genre nature of ghazal in Tatar literature of the late XX - early XXI centuries. The focus of research attention is the work of Radif Gatash, whose works are a model of love lyrics. The national poet was able to accommodate new techniques in the traditional genre, to uncover the problems facing modern society. The language of his works is metaphorical, different layers of vocabulary are skillfully combined in the text: the sublimely high-flown style coexists with a “simple” word. The author of the article aims to reveal the principles of the translation of Gatash’s poetry into Russian. In the course of a comparative analysis of the works of V. Khamidullina and A. Karimova, it is concluded that the Russian-speaking audience has the opportunity to experience the full peculiarity of the ghazals of the modern Tatar national poet. At the same time, as the study shows, the installation of the poet-translator itself plays an important role, whose creative search inevitably leads to liberties and transformational changes, which is especially noticeable in the translations of V. Khamidullina.

Revenge porn as a form of cyber misogyny
Authors: Vilic Vida
Published: July 2019

Among many forms of abuse of privacy in the cyberspace and social media
networks, particular attention is given to the so-called cyber misogyny. It
refers to the existence of deeply rooted prejudices against women and
encompasses various forms of gender- based hatred, harassment and violence
against women that occur in a virtual (cyber) space. The subject of this
paper is an analysis of emerging forms of cyber misogyny, particularly
focusing on one of its most widespread forms: revenge porn. Through revenge
porn in the cyberspace, misogyny can be manifested through publishing
someone?s intimate photos, that is, photos of their intimate private life or
sexually explicit photos and videos. In all these cases, publications in
cyberspace or social media occur without the knowledge, willingness or
consent of the photographed person. The purpose behind such activity is to
shame and/or humiliate the victim by causing her pain and moral suffering
for reasons of revenge. The anonymity of the victim is not preserved; on the
contrary, her identity and other relevant data are listed in order to
identify and make the victim more visible. Therefore, the aim of the paper
is to point out to the seriousness of this phenomenon that occurs in the
cyberspace, which presents violation of privacy and causes difficult
consequences for the victim. Furthermore, the aim is to investigate the
possibilities of criminalization and protection of the (mostly female)
victims of this criminal act. The main topics analysed in this paper
include: a definition of cyber misogyny and revenge porn, an explanation of
the most common forms of its manifestation, existing forms of protection,
and criminalization of revenge porn worldwide and in the Republic of Serbia.

Authors: Seliverstova Daria V.
Published: July 2019

Aim. Identification of risk factors (RF) for myocardial infarction (MI) among women with preserved menstrual function.
Material and Methods. 121 Female patients under 55 years of age, who were hospitalized with MI in the cardiology departments of Ryazan in the period 2010-2016, were studied. All patients were divided into 2 groups. The first group included women with a regular menstrual cycle without menopausal symptoms (n=60, mean age 48.0±6.1 years). The second group consisted of postmenopausal women (n=61, mean age 49.8±4.3 years). Of a cohort of studied  women a group of women was isolated (n=18 from group 1 and n=15 from group 2) who, during hospitalization with MI in 2015-2016, filled in questionnaires on nutrition and physical activity.
Results. In women of group 1 such risk factors as burdened heredity for cardiovascular diseases (58.3%, p=0.02) and smoking (46.7%, p=0.03) were more common than in women of group 2. Only women of group 1 took oral contraceptives before the onset of MI (15%, p=0.005). The most common RFs were: arterial hypertension (˃80% of patients in both groups; overweight and obesity (78.3% of women from group 1 and 83.6% from group 2); type 2 diabetes mellitus  (23.3% in group 1 and 24.6% in group 2). According to the results of the questionnaire on food habits, insufficient use of fruit and vegetables was detected among all patients of both groups. In analysis of the results of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), 72.2% of patients in group 1 experienced insufficient physical activity, and 53.3% of patients in group 2 showed pronounced hypodynamia. Biochemical analysis of blood revealed increased average levels of total cholesterol, low-density lipoproteins and triglycerides, with high-density lipoproteins within the normal range in both groups.
Conclusion. The most common risk factors for myocardial infarction in women with preserved menstrual function in comparison with postmenopausal women were: positive heredity for cardiovascular diseases, smoking and taking oral contraceptives. Besides, a wide spread of arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia and diabetes mellitus, overweight and obesity, low physical activity and lack of fruit and vegetables in the diet of women in both groups should be noted.
Peculiarities of physical development and of level of nutrients in children with autistic spectrum disorders
Authors: Bavykinа Irina A.
Published: July 2019

Aim. To study the state of physical development and the level of calcium and iron in children and adolescents with autistic spectrum disorders taking into account the characteristics of eating behavior.
Materials and Methods. 64 children aged 2.5 to 15 years with autistic spectrum disorders were assessed for physical development according to WHO standards, and for iron and total calcium in the blood. Parents of children were surveyed on issues related to the peculiarities of eating behavior in their children.
Results. In 21.9% of children and adolescents with autistic spectrum disorders, alteration of nutritional status was manifested by an increase in the body mass index and in 18.7% – by a decrease in it. 1st-2nd degree obesity was found in 12.5%, 1st degree protein-energy insufficiency in 6.2% of the examined children. Laboratory tests revealed a decreased level of serum iron in 37.3 % of children, and of total calcium in 45.1%. At the same time, in children being kept on gluten-free diet for a long time, iron level increased with age, in contrast to those who did not use diet therapy (p<0.05). The vast majority of children with autistic spectrum disorders exhibited a selective appetite (73.4%) with predomination of easily digestible carbohydrates in their diet.
Conclusion. No significant alterations in the parameters of physical development of children with autistic spectrum disorders were found in comparison with the population. With this, in children with autistic spectrum disorders lower parameters of serum iron and calcium were observed that could be corrected by following a diet.

Authors: Malashenkо Viktor N. , Ershov Alexey M. , Ershova Yulia V.
Published: July 2019

Aim. To identify predictors of malignant neoplasms (MN) of female sex sphere, to evaluate their sensitivity and specificity, to calculate prognostic coefficient (PC) and to create a computer program on its basis for automated processing of questionnaire data for arrangement of groups of risk for regular medical check-ups through the Internet (without participation of a physician) or on computers of women’s health clinics.
Materials and Methods. The work was performed in  two steps. The 1st step was an open questioning survey of 226 women, divided into 2 groups: the 1st group included women with MN of the sex sphere (n=125); the 2nd group included conventionally healthy women. The questionnaire included 82 positions: 19 open questions  and 63 questions with a choice of an answer. The second stage consisted in a «blind» questioning of 120 women who visited a women’s health clinic. The questionnaire included 18 earlier identified predictors. A multifactor model was developed on the basis of questionnaire data and also using the material of medical histories and of histological examinations.
Results. Using ROC-analysis of the questionnaire data, 18 significant predictors of MN of female sex sphere were identified. On their basis a formula was derived for calculation of PC for the risk of development of MN of female sex sphere with 72.8% sensitivity and 95% specificity, which was used for creation of a computer model for automated processing of questionnaire data with the aim of identification of groups of risks and for  medical check-ups without participation of physicians through Internet sites of hospitals. Then, in result of closed questioning of women (n=120) by 18 predictors, 70 women got into a group of risk, in 47 of them (67%) MN of sex sphere were identified, 50 fell into a group of conventionally healthy women, of them 45 (90%) were healthy, and 5 (10%) had MN.
Conclusions. 1) Multifactor statistical ROC-analysis of 82 questions and answers permitted to identify 18 predictors of MN of female sex sphere which can be used to scientifically substantiate identification of groups of risk for organization of regular prophylactic measures. 2) The conducted work permitted to create a computer program for automated processing of questionnaires for formation of groups of risk and for regular medical check-ups. We believe that introduction of questionnaire screening through the Internet with subsequent computer processing of the results without participation of physicians with permit to increase the coverage of women’s population of the Russian Federation with prophylactic measures against MN of the female sex sphere and to provide more time for receipt of primary patients, to simplify the work for creation of data base, and to increase the oncological alertness of women’s population.
Variations in near-saturated hydraulic conductivity of arable mineral topsoils in south-western and central-eastern Finland
Authors: Keskinen Riikka , Räty Mari , Kaseva Janne , Hyväluoma Jari
Published: July 2019

Soil hydraulic properties play an important role in determining the level of crop productivity and the extent of environmental loading. Consequently, measurement of near-saturated soil hydraulic conductivity (K(h)) by tension infiltrometer (TI) is an interesting technique. To provide reference values for near-saturated K(h) in arable mineral topsoils of Finland and to investigate variability in these values caused by tillage, antecedent soil moisture content and earthworm burrows, field measurements were conducted in south-western and central-eastern Finland using the TI technique, at supply pressure head –6, –3, and –1 cm. The range of near-saturated K(h) values obtained was 0.02–12.6 mm h-1 at –6 cm, 0.30–85.9 mm h-1 at –3 cm, and 2.55–250 mm h-1 at –1 cm. At –6 cm pressure head, clay soils tended to show lower values than coarser-structured soils, but the order was reversed at –1 cm. The spatial variation in near-saturated K(h) was moderate and was exceeded by the temporal variation.

Published: July 2019

A multi-location trial was performed in apple orchards planted in 2005 under a uniform scheme in Poland, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of the geographical apple-tree growing location on the accumulation of dominant bioactive compounds in apple fruits: phenolics and triterpenes as the most valuable substances for human health. The study included two apple cultivars, ‘Auksis’ and ‘Ligol’, on B.396 rootstock and was carried out from 2016 to 2018. Geographical apple-tree growing location had a significant impact on the composition and total content of the tested bioactive compounds in apple fruits. Increased accumulation of phenolic and triterpene compounds was recorded in the south–north direction. This could be explained by the different climate conditions in the trial locations: the sum of active temperatures gradually decreased by 200–300 °C in the south–north direction, and the vegetation period becomes shorter. Apples grown in Estonia, depending on the tested cultivar, had 77–139% more total phenolic compounds. Significant differences were recorded for all groups of phenolic compounds. The differences between the trial sites in accumulation of triterpene compounds were lower, although apples in at farthest north location had 18–32% more total triterpene compounds than apples grown in south.

Published: July 2019

Vegetable by-products could potentially be suitable to be used as feeds in animal diets, which in general would strengthen the sustainability of both food and feed systems. Two experiments were performed with the objective to evaluate the aerobic spoilage via visual inspection and short term ensiling process of carrot by-products with silage additives (lactic acid bacteria [LAB] inoculants or formic acid [FA]). In the first experiment (Exp. 1), carrot by-product was treated with five additives including a control without additive, two commercial LAB inoculants (heterofermentative and homofermentative), an in-house isolated LAB mixture and a commercial FA based product. Second experiment (Exp. 2) used a 2 × 3 factorial design (type of raw material [carrot by-product with or without pieces] and additive treatment [control, heterofermentative LAB inoculant or FA based product]). Use of FA restricted lactic acid fermentation indicated by the high residual water soluble carbohydrate concentration while simultaneously stimulating ethanol production. LAB inoculants were not able to efficiently affect quality of ensiled carrot by-products. Use of FA also delayed the spoilage of the fresh carrot by-product particularly in Exp. 1.

Okul öncesi öğretmen adaylarının bebeklik döneminde kurum temelli eğitime ilişkin görüşleri
Authors: Ünlü Çetin Şenil
Published: July 2019

Okul öncesi eğitim doğumdan başlayan ve temel eğitimin başlamasına kadar devam eden bir eğitim sürecidir. Türkiye’de ise kamu alanında çalışan okul öncesi öğretmenleri çoğunlukla 36-72 aylık çocuklarla çalışmakta, öğretmen yetiştirme programları da öğretmen adaylarını daha çok bu yaş grubu ile çalışmaya hazırlamaktadır. 0-36 aylık çocuklara eğitim veren kurumlarda çalışması öncelikli gruplardan biri de okul öncesi öğretmenliğinden mezun olan bireylerdir. Ancak ilgili alan yazını, okul öncesi öğretmen ve öğretmen adaylarının bu kurumlarda çalışmaya yönelik ne düşündüğüne dair neredeyse hiçbir bilgi sunmamaktadır. Mevcut araştırmanın amacı okul öncesi öğretmen adaylarının bebeklik döneminde kurum temelli eğitime yönelik görüşlerini betimlemek ve bu görüşlerin farklı yıllarda son sınıfta okuyan öğretmen adayları arasında değişip değişmediğini ortaya koymaktır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda çalışmanın verileri farklı yıllarda okul öncesi öğretmenliği programının son sınıfında okuyan 120 öğretmen adayından yazılı görüşme formu aracılığı ile toplanmıştır. Veriler nitel içerik analizi metodu ile analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular öğretmen yetiştirme programları, genel uygulamalar ve sosyal politikalar bağlamında eleştirel bir gözle tartışılmıştır.

Published: July 2019

Currently, cancer is the top ten cause of child mortality in Indonesia. Chemotherapy is an effective intervention to treat cancer children, however, has side effects, including mucositis. The prevalence of mucositis in cancer children is estimated to reach 45−80%, which has implications for the children’s’ quality of life. The purpose of this study was to identify the occurrence of mucositis in cancer children who received chemotherapy treatment. The study was conducted at Dr. RSUP Hasan Sadikin Bandung. This research method was descriptive quantitative. The consecutive sampling technique was used to determine the respondent as the study sample so that 60 respondents were obtained. The process of collecting data used the Oral Assessment Guide (OAG) study instrument in the form of a checklist sheet. Data were analyzed using frequency distribution and percentage. The results showed that almost all cancer children with chemotherapy treatment experienced mucositis which is 53 people (88.3%) and a small proportion of 7 people (11.7%) did not experience mucositis. Almost all cancer children who get chemotherapy treatment experience mucositis. Nurses as health workers who are most often with patients should be able to improve nursing care for cancer children who receive chemotherapy treatment in minimizing the occurrence of mucositis by conducting routine mucositis assessment and oral care to improve the quality of life in cancer children

La generación de emprendimientos desde población vulnerable es una de las grandes oportunidades para mejorar la calidad de vida de estas poblaciones. Para que sus ideas de emprendimiento lleguen a ser efectivas se requiere una identificación de su intención de emprendimiento, habilidades e intereses ocupacionales. De esta manera, en el artículo se presenta una propuesta para el apoyo en la generación de proyectos de emprendimiento en población vulnerable, aplicado en el caso de los familiares de los niños del jardín Mi Primera Infancia en el barrio Santa Fé de Bogotá. Inicialmente en el estudio, se desarrollaron sesiones de caracterización de la población de estudio (acudientes de los niños del jardín Mi Primera Infancia), luego se realizaron talleres de capacitación para la identificación y definición genérica de posibles ideas de emprendimiento, a partir del perfil (edad, nivel educativo, actividad ocupacional y disponibilidad de tiempo) y siguiendo la metodología CANVAS. Posterior a ello, se seleccionó una idea de negocio que respondía en mejor medida al perfil y los intereses de la comunidad y del mercado, la cual está enmarcada en un negocio de producción y venta de productos alimenticios para las personas que transitan por la zona.

CASE DESCRIPTION A 20-year-old female south-central black rhinoceros (Diceros bicornis minor) was evaluated because of an acute onset of CNS deficits.

CLINICAL FINDINGS The rhinoceros had no history of illness. Clinical signs included acute lethargy, ataxia, and decreased appetite. Hematologic abnormalities included leukocytosis with neutrophilia and a profound left shift. Results of serum biochemical analysis revealed hypophosphatemia but no other abnormalities. Results of a quantitative PCR assay for West Nile virus and an assay for anti–Neosporum caninum antibodies in serum were negative; the patient was seropositive for multiple Leptospira serovars.

TREATMENT AND OUTCOME Antimicrobials and anti-inflammatory agents were administered, but the condition of the rhinoceros worsened overnight; despite treatment with additional anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial agents, IV fluids, and thiamine, it became obtunded and died of respiratory arrest ≤ 24 hours later. Necropsy revealed severe, diffuse, suppurative, and histiocytic meningo-encephalomyelitis involving the cerebrum, cerebellum, and spinal cord. Amebic trophozoites were observed on histologic examination of affected tissue. Infection with Naegleria fowleri was confirmed by results of immuno-histochemical analysis and a multiplex real-time PCR assay.

CLINICAL RELEVANCE Findings suggested that south-central black rhinoceros are susceptible to the free-living ameba N fowleri. Ameba-induced meningoencephalomyelitis should be considered as a differential diagnosis for rhinoceros that have an acute onset of neurologic signs. Diagnosis of N fowleri infection in an animal has a profound public health impact because of potential human exposure from the environment and the high fatality rate in people with N fowleri infection.
Rejection sampling of bipartite graphs with given degree sequence
Authors: Kayibi Koko K. , Samee U. , Pirzada S. , Khan Mohammad Ali
Published: July 2019

Let A = (a1, a2, ..., an) be a degree sequence of a simple bipartite graph. We present an algorithm that takes A as input, and outputs a simple bipartite realization of A, without stalling. The running time of the algorithm is ⊝(n1n2), where ni is the number of vertices in the part i of the bipartite graph. Then we couple the generation algorithm with a rejection sampling scheme to generate a simple realization of A uniformly at random. The best algorithm we know is the implicit one due to Bayati, Kim and Saberi (2010) that has a running time of O(mamax), where

m
=

∑

i

$m = {1 \over 2}\sum\nolimits_{i = 1}^n {{a_i}}

and amax is the maximum of the degrees, but does not sample uniformly. Similarly, the algorithm presented by Chen et al. (2005) does not sample uniformly, but nearly uniformly. The realization of A output by our algorithm may be a start point for the edge-swapping Markov Chains pioneered by Brualdi (1980) and Kannan et al.(1999).

Efficiency vs. The Level of Per Capita Income of Urban-Rural Municipalities in Poland
Authors: Olejniczak Jarosław
Published: July 2019

The basic objective of the work was to verify the hypothesis regarding the existence of the correlation between the income potential of the municipalities and the efficiency (relative) of their activity. The basis for such a hypothesis were some concerns as to the validity of the assumed system of funding territorial local governments in Poland- in particular in the area of fiscal transfers. A nonparametric method for the evaluation of relative efficiency - the DEA CCR-O was used in the research. Then the correlation between efficiency scores and local government revenues per capita was measured. The study includes 573 urban-rural municipalities in Poland in the years 2009, 2013, and 2016. As variable “input” expenditures per-capita were adopted. As “outputs”, 13 variables describing the basic areas of municipal activity were adopted. The results of the conducted analyses point to the existence of a correlation between the commune’s revenue level and the effectiveness of its functioning. In the whole of the analysed period, the correlation fluctuated around -0.34 to -0.42 for total pc revenues and -0.26 to -0.32 for pc own revenues.
