The results showed that the phonological symptoms of speech in the interactions of E-Talk Show With BHS programs were: (1) anaptaxis, (2) contractions, (3) labialization. There are phonological symptoms of anaptaxis in the form of prosthesis, epenthesis and paragog. Prosthesis data found there are 2 data in the form of the addition of the sound [h] and [?]. The epenthesis data has 1 data, namely the addition of the sound [h]. The paragog data found amounted to 11 data, namely the addition of the sound [h] and [?]. The phonological symptoms of contraction found were the grinding of phonemes /ə/, /h/, /i/, /m/, /s/, /a/. The omission of the phoneme occurs due to the influence of the speaker's pronunciation speed. This happens to speed up or simplify the pronunciation. The amount of data found is 35 data. The omission of one phoneme is 29 data. The omission of two phonemes is 5 data. The omission of three phonemes is 1 data. The phonological symptoms of labialization found amounted to 21 data. The data includes sound changes [l]-[lʷ], [d]-[dʷ], [t]-[tʷ], [j]-[jʷ], [s]-[sʷ], [p]-[ pʷ], [d]-[dʷ], [m]-[mʷ], [k]-[kʷ], [g]-[gʷ], [n]-[nʷ]. This labialization usually occurs due to pressure or prolongation of the sound when it is pronounced.

Authors: Amin Prakruti Mukund , Patel Manish
Published: May 2023

A simple and accurate UV visible spectroscopic method has been developed and validated for quantification of varenicline in bulk drug and pharmaceutical dosage forms.  A shimadzu UV spectrophotometer was used considering availability and cost effectiveness of the proposed method. λmax  of 236nm  and   319nm  were    observed  from    the   spectroscopic  method.  The calibration curve was linear (r = 0.99) in the studied range of concentration (5- 40 µg /ml) in both the absorption maxima. The selectivity and sensitivity of the elaborated method were satisfactory, and the limits of detection and quantification were   less than 20% of the specification level.   Moreover, the inter-  and  intra-day precisions was  found  to be  less  than  3%  (RSD),  while  the recovery values  expressing inter-  and intra-day accuracy was varied  from 99.73  to 101.23. The varenicline solution was stable over a period of 3 days on storage under refrigeration. The utility of the developed method was examined by analyzing the tablets containing VAR.  As a result, the method was found to be selective, sensitive, precise and accurate.

Published: May 2023

Background and Aim: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients are more susceptible to the initiation of severe periodontitis which can ultimately intensify their systemic inflammation associated with RA. The present study aimed to determine the incidence of periodontitis in rheumatoid arthritis patients. Materials and Methodology: A cross-sectional analytical study was carried out on 168 rheumatoid arthritis patients in the Department of Dentistry and Internal Medicine of a Tertiary Care Hospital of Lahore, Pakistan from January 2022 to December 2022. All the patients were inquired about their demographic details, medical history and smoking habits. A detailed periodontal examination of full mouth was done and plaque index, clinical attachment level (CAL) and probing pocket depth (PPD) was measured. Rheumatoid factor (RF)’s presence, number of tender and swollen joints, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR); Disease Activity Index (DAS) and hand radiographs were the different RA parameters which were recorded. Periodontal conditions were then associated and correlated with RA parameters. Results: Out of the total 168 RA patients, there were 142 (84.5%) females and 26 (15.5%) male patients. The overall mean age was 48.6 ± 8.64 years. The overall mean DAS score and disease duration was 4.58 ± 1.32 and 9.58 ± 6.8 years respectively.

It exists in both sexes but higher among men.
Copper Coins, Catchwords, and Contextual Cues: The Climactic Placement of the Widow’s Mites (Mark 12:41–44)
Authors: Otten Jeremy D.
Published: May 2023

The story of the widow in the temple with her two small copper coins (Mark 12:41-44) is a familiar one, but recent scholarship has yielded a surprisingly divergent array of interpretative options. In particular, in noting the catchword χήρα (vv. 40,42,43) that links this episode to Jesus’s diatribe against the scribes in the preceding pericope (vv. 38-40), recent scholarship has argued, against the traditionally positive interpretation of this narrative, that this context requires a negative or tragic interpretation. The present study argues that catchwords and other contextual clues link the widow narrative not just with the preceding pericope, but with the whole series of five disputations in the temple (vv. 13-40). With the episode functioning in this way as an epilogue to the whole section, the widow may be seen as both a model of discipleship as well as a tragic figure whose poverty illustrates the failure of the religious leadership. Because catchwords are frequently noted but rarely defined, criteria must first be proposed for their identification and verification. These are then applied to the passage in question to demonstrate the lexical and semantic links between it and the preceding passages. Seen in this context, the widow narrative emerges in both greater clarity and greater complexity, illustrating piety and true discipleship on the one hand, and the tragic failure of the temple cult and its leaders on the other.

KAFKA PARANTEZİ: DELEUZE, AGAMBEN, DERRIDA -METİN NE YAPAR?
Authors: GÜLAY Peyami Safa
Published: May 2023

Bir metni kendisine bir şey yapılan (yorumlanan) bir yapı olarak değil de bizzat bir şey yapan bir yapı olarak okumak mümkün müdür? Gilles Deleuze, Giorgio Agamben ve Jacques Derrida’nın Kafka metnine yönelik okumaları, böyle bir imkanı yoklamaktadır. Deleuze’ün okuması, metni etki yaratan bir makine olarak değerlendirir. Agamben’in okuması, Kafka metninin klasik yorumlarından uzaklaştırılması girişimi olarak anlaşılabilir. Derrida’nın okuması, Kafka metnini bir metin okuma deneyiminin indirgenemez mahiyetinin prototipi haline getirir. Bu çalışma Kafka metninin, üç özgün okuma özelinde, kendisine yönelen yorumları mümkün kılma ve kapsama performanslarını göstermeyi amaçlamaktadır. Böylelikle bir taraftan Deleuze, Agamben ve Derrida’nın Kafka metnini okuma girişimleri kısaca sergilenecek fakat bir taraftan da aynı metnin kendisini gelecek okumalara açmak adına nihai okumaya direnç gösterdiği iddia edilecektir. Nihayet bu iddia, genel anlamıyla metnin yapısıyla ilgili olarak bir iddia olarak öne sürülecektir: Metin kendisine yönelen yorumlar aracılığıyla tüketilebilen bir içerik değildir. O, kendisine yönelen yorumları mümkün kılarak kapsayan, böylelikle kendisini anlam üretmek üzere geleceğe taşıyan bir potansiyeldir.
Moving from EDID Words to Policy Action: A Case Study of a Teacher Education Program’s Admissions Policy Reform
Authors: MacMath Sheryl , Salingré Barbara , Sivia Awneet
Published: May 2023

Regardless of the commitments that universities and teacher education programs (TEPs) have publicly stated regarding equity, diversity, inclusion, or decolonization (EDID), rarely do these commitments impact their admission policies or practices. Through examining a small program’s efforts at implementing EDID change over a three-year period, this article provides critical reflections, questions, and action steps for TEPs looking to move beyond talking about the importance of EDID, to actually altering policies and procedures to address systemic change. Utilizing the concepts of “equity in” and “equity through” admissions, intake variables (Multiple Mini Interview [MMI], Program Preparation, GPA) were analyzed quantitatively and used in this beginning participatory action research project. Results illustrate the benefits of the MMI, the need for program admissions to account for capacities in relation to anti-racism directly, rather than just generally referring to equity, and the need for admission practices to reflect an appreciation of the complexities around identity and ethics.

The suggestions for optimization are to build a symbiotic model based on the compatibility of quality and quantity of resources, the integration of industry-university-research, and a two-way incentive policy environment for the integration of education and industry.
On the Standard of Proof of Criminal in Absentia Trial Procedure
Authors: Li Yueqian
Published: May 2023

The standard of proof in criminal in absentia trial proceedings is that the evidence is accurate and sufficient The adherence to a monolithic standard of proof of conviction in absentia trial proceedings is influenced by the structure and value of criminal proceedings. However, the current rules of evidence can hardly support the realization of the standard of proof in criminal absentia trials. To ensure the realization of the standard of proof, the rules of evidence in criminal in absentia proceedings must be improved, the rules of relevance and corroboration evidence must be relaxed, the rules of exclusion of illegal evidence must be used strictly, and the evidence investigation procedure must be constructed based on direct speech.

Authors: Xu Yuqing
Published: May 2023

English poetry is a treasure house of the English national thoughts, a poet expressing his feelings and thoughts about nature, society and life, and an important means for English learners to know English culture. English poetry, as a common style, has its own stylistic features, such as paying attention to the beauty of rhyme and rhythm. The appreciation and study of English poetry is usually carried out from the perspective of aesthetics or literature. Of course, some literary theorists also emphasize the pragmatic purposes of poetry, such as enlightenment, pleasure, imitation, self-expression, etc. In view of the textual features and pragmatic effects of poetry, this paper will analyze the pragmatic effects and appreciation of the English poem "Dwelling in the woods on a snowy night" from the perspective of deixis in pragmatics.

Published: May 2023

This survey mainly examines the influence of Korean variety shows on Korean learners. After the analysis and summary, it is found that the influence of Korean variety shows in listening, speaking, vocabulary, cultural accumulation and other aspects is greater, but in grammar, writing and other complex teaching aspects is less. In this regard, we put forward three suggestions and strategies: first, choose different variety films according to different course types; Second, variety show teaching should fully consider students' Korean level, not easy to use for beginners; Thirdly, cultural confidence should be integrated into Korean teaching. As a good teaching material, Korean variety shows will make the course more interesting and creative if used correctly.
Study of Female Consciousness in Female Gothic Literature
Authors: Wu Yaxin
Published: May 2023

The female characters in Gothic novels are usually the representatives of fear or even the persecuted, while Female Gothic literature aims to establish the standard of female own value. The heroines achieve self-salvation through their own wisdom and calm attitude, and finally awaken their self-consciousness to form female subjectivity. This is a challenge to the gender hierarchy and the culture of male control.The style of Female Gothic runs through Angela Carter’s life of writing. She pays attention to the sufferings of female, delving into areas where other female writers have not or dare not explore, boldly and frankly addressing topics such as incest, sexual abuse, and pornography. From her point of view, female’s body and desire are subjects that cannot be bypassed in feminist writing and research. Through analyzing Carter’s work, The Company of Wolves, this paper focuses on the power of female as subversive to the established value system and the guiding role they play as constructors of a new order and has a deep thinking of female in deconstructing patriarchal centralism to construct harmonious relations between male and female.In The Company of Wolves, the author also creates a new Little Red Riding Hood with a rebellious spirit, but here, the little girl is more about exploiting the fighting potential contained in the female “sexual energy”. The seduction of Little Red Riding Hood by a Wolf disguised as a hunter can also be directly interpreted as a sexual seduction. Carter’s rewriting is to release the repressed potential desire of the female subject in the traditional fairy tale, so as to break the traditional pattern of gender relations. For a long time, female have grown up under the discipline of male power, in a position of oppression and constraint, being taught to restrain their desires, learn to protect themselves and be a good girl, and being instilled with the idea that “it is their natural duty to bear and raise children and do a good job at home”. Female are bound by the “feminine virtues” of self-sacrifice, obedience and docility, while their individual needs and desires are denied and hidden. Carter’s new Red Riding Hood is not bound by moral norms, but boldly follows her own desires, using “sex” as a tool to gain a new life, so that sexual liberation is achieved and sexual reconciliation with men is completed. Female’s self-consciousness and subjectivity are realized in this process.

Agricultural use of alternative energy has become more prevalent. Utilizing the alternative source when it is widely accessible is economical and prudent. Drip irrigation may be even more effective when alleviated with renewable energy via a power grid link. Fog computing is a cutting-edge method for extending cloud services to the network's edge. With compute and storage capabilities, it offers a widely dispersed, virtualized platform. Fog could analyze vast volumes of data before sending it to the cloud. This work proposes an innovative agricultural system with integrated hydropower management and its functional blocks. For processing and decision- making in this system, the fog router received field data from the aggregator. To use the data for analysis in the future, it will be stored in the cloud. We have constructed an intelligent irrigation and power management system based on the IoT in our suggested design with IIPMS. This prototype model detects heat and light using temperature and light sensors. If this dual parameter is discovered to be sufficient, the intelligent switch automates the switchover to solar power. The gadget and motor operate on a regular power supply from the power plant. Through GSM technology, the cloud informs the farmer about the type of electricity being used and information linked to power, such as voltage. To inform the farmer of the availability of solar power, a built-in prediction module was also proposed with the Time Series Analysis based forecasting to carry out forecasting duties (TSA). Based on the simulation study, we claimed that the proposed approach performs better in various real-world agricultural scenarios. We also compared our energy consumption model with the existing models and claimed the efficacies of the proposed approach.

Published: May 2023

As the digital workplace becomes more prevalent, organizations are faced with the challenge of balancing security and information management. On one hand, there is a need to protect sensitive data and prevent cyberattacks, while on the other hand, organizations must enable employees to collaborate and share information effectively. Machine learning (ML) is a promising technology that can help organizations address this challenge. By analyzing data patterns and identifying potential security threats, ML algorithms can enhance security measures and mitigate risks. At the same time, ML can also facilitate information management by automating routine tasks and improving the accuracy of data analysis. In this paper, we explore the role of ML in balancing security and information management in the digital workplace. We propose a hybrid ML model that integrates autoencoder and convolutional subnetworks in unified architecture to help capturing and security threats in the digital workplace, without compromising the information management tasks. We also present a case study of a real-world implementation of ML in a digital workplace setting, highlighting the benefits and limitations of this approach. Our findings suggest that ML can be a valuable tool for achieving a balance between security and information management in the digital workplace, but its successful implementation requires careful consideration of organizational context and stakeholder needs.

Purpose:

Primary spinal infections (PSIs) are a group of infectious diseases characterized by inflammation of the end plate-disk unit or its surroundings. PSI is considered more prevalent and aggressive among patients with chronic immunocompromised states. Association of PSIs, immunocompromising cancers, and hemoglobinopathies has not been systematically analyzed. We conducted a systematic review to study characteristics, clinical presentation, and mortality of patients with PSI in the setting of hematologic disease.

Methods:

A systematic literature search in PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus was conducted in April 2022 in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. We included retrospective case series and individual case reports.

Results:

On careful review, 28 articles published between 1970 and 2022 were selected. These studies featured 29 patients who met inclusion criteria (mean age 29 years, age range 1.5 to 67 years; 63.3% male). Lumbar infection was the most common location (65.5%), with Salmonella (24.1%) as the main causative microorganism. Neurologic compromise was present in 41% of patients, and surgical intervention occurred in 48.3%. Average antibiotic duration was 13 weeks. The postoperative complication rate was 21.4%, with a mortality of 6.9%.

Conclusion:

PSI in patients with hematologic disease, while having shorter periods to diagnosis, presents increased rates of neurologic deficit, surgical intervention, and complications.

Authors: Davies J , Sammut J , Greenway M , Day C
Published: May 2023

Objective: This study aims to assess the safety and efﬁcacy of the use of popliteal nerve block (PNB) in the endovascular management of patients with critical limb threatening ischaemia. Design: Single-centre retrospective observational study. Methods: All patients with rest pain who received PNB from March 2018 to August 2021 were included. Pain scores were recorded before and after block using a visual analogue scale (VAS). Requirements for analgesia or sedation, complications related to nerve block, and level of intervention were recorded. Results were compared with a historical cohort of patients prior to implementation of nerve blocks. Results: 68 nerve blocks were performed in 63 patients (M:F 46:17) of mean age 71.7 years (range 43–91). All patients were Fontaine classiﬁcation III–IV. Sonographically, all nerve blocks were technically successful. The mean VAS pain score was 8.2 pre-block, reducing to 0.3 (p<0.0001) post-block. There were no complications related to the block. Four patients required supplementary analgesia for breakthrough ischaemic pain. Compared with the historical comparison group of patients (n=62), there was a statistically signiﬁcant reduction in the requirement for conscious sedation (p=0.004) and no procedures were abandoned due to pain compared with three in the historical comparison group (p=0.034). Conclusion: Popliteal sciatic nerve block is safe and effective in patients with critical limb threatening ischaemia undergoing lower limb endovascular intervention, signiﬁcantly reducing the need for conscious sedation and risk of procedural abandonment.

A hospitalização na infância/adolescência separa os sujeitos de seu ambiente e relações habituais, expondo-os muitas vezes a rotinas inflexíveis, pessoas, equipamentos e procedimentos desconhecidos; tratamentos agressivos e assustadores, podendo desencadear sentimentos como angústia, ansiedade, agressividade, passividade, negativismo e medo. O hospital não deve, entretanto, ser apenas espaço de dor e sofrimento, uma vez que também oferece cura e alívio dos sintomas, podendo ainda ser espaço humanizado para realização de atividades lúdicas e prazerosas. Este relato de experiência tem o objetivo de descrever o processo de produção plástica de telas, as quais compuseram uma exposição. As telas foram elaboradas por crianças e adolescentes hospitalizados, durante os atendimentos de Terapia Ocupacional. Propôs-se que os sujeitos expressassem, livremente, o que significa a hospitalização para eles, como se sentem no hospital ou ainda que retratassem algo marcante da internação. Foram disponibilizados materiais diversos, tais como tintas, colas coloridas, pincéis, glitter, purpurina, revistas, tesoura, cola, lápis, borracha e régua, além das telas de diferentes tamanhos, possibilitando, assim, a livre criação e expressão, individual e grupal. As treze telas produzidas foram expostas no saguão de entrada do hospital, para visualização pelos visitantes de pacientes e por profissionais de saúde. Foi disponibilizado um caderno para comentários e críticas do público. A maioria das crianças e adolescentes retratou aspectos que consideram positivos na hospitalização. Sentimentos negativos despertados pela internação foram expressos e sugestões de melhorias no ambiente foram relatadas. A experiência relatada propiciou que as crianças e adolescentes se expressassem livremente e se tornassem sujeitos ativos de seu processo. A exposição favoreceu ainda a interação com os profissionais de saúde, despertando seu olhar para as vivências dos pacientes.

The Right Purpose on the Right Covenant: Does the Loan Purpose Affect the Debt Covenant Through the Ṣukūk Rating?
Authors: Sulistiani Dwi , Tjahjadi Bambang
Published: May 2023

Purpose — This paper aims to determine the influence of the purpose for issuing ṣukūk (operations, financing, and investment/acquisition) on different types of debt covenants (balance sheet, income statement, and collateral-based covenants). It also examines the ability of the ṣukūk rating to mediate the relationship between loan purposes and debt covenants.
Design/Methodology/Approach — The research data were 236 ṣukūk that were listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) until December 2020. They were collected through the IDX official website. Logistic regression and the Sobel test were used to test the direct and indirect influences among the variables studied.
Findings — The results showed that loan purposes affected the types of debt covenants. Loans for operational purposes seemed to be in accordance with the debt covenant with restrictions on income statement (IS), balance sheet (BS) and collateral. Loans for investment/acquisition were more appropriate to both BS and collateral-based debt covenants, while loans for financing were better suited to BS-based debt covenants. This study also proves that the ṣukūk rating could mediate associations between loan purposes, especially for investment/acquisition, and the types of debt covenants.
Practical Implication — This research is useful for ṣukūk investors to consider the investment by looking at the purposes, ratings and ṣukūk covenants. In addition, it is helpful for ṣukūk holders, represented by trustees, in determining debt covenants in the form of ṣukūk with different purposes.
Research Implication — The results of this study described how accounting information improved contract efficiency. This research provided important evidence of the association between the structure of debt covenants and loan purposes. It provided empirical evidence of the debt covenant hypothesis in agency theory on the importance of designing debt contracts to reduce monitoring costs.
Originality/Value — This study employed the debt covenant on ṣukūk in Indonesia. The use of the ṣukūk rating as an intervening variable between loan purpose and debt covenant has not been studied previously. This study also divided debt covenant into four types by adding the collateral-based debt covenant because ṣukūk are different from other types of debt and require underlying assets in their issuance.

This research deals with the most important legal issues related to the financial applications of artificial intelligence, which has reached an advanced stage. Moreover, new applications have appeared that herald a rapid succession of further developments of increasing complexity. This is discussed after the necessary preliminaries to clarify the concept of artificial intelligence and explain its levels and challenges. The Sharīʿah issues presented by the research are jurisprudential issues, some of which have maqāṣidī dimensions, which the researcher reviewed from the macroeconomic perspective. The Sharīʿah issues related to the financial applications of artificial intelligence are not limited to those presented in the research; rather, there are others, and these issues will continue to develop as this intelligence keeps developing. This requires continuous monitoring of new issues in order to deal with them precisely from the perspectives of fiqh and the objectives of the Sharīʿah.

Creencias y propaganda católica en los pequeños impresos (1845-1905)
Authors: Hibbs Solange
Published: May 2023

En la segunda mitad del siglo XIX, la Iglesia católica desplegó una intensa actividad de publicación y difusión de la literatura católica para públicos distintos y más especialmente para las clases populares y trabajadoras. Esta cultura católica, que pretendía ser asequible, revistió formas distintas y se privilegiaron publicaciones fácilmente manejables cuyas características eran la brevedad, la volatilidad, la relación entre texto e imagen, el diálogo y las formas orales. Entre dichas publicaciones se destacan las hojas volantes y los pequeños impresos que tuvieron notable éxito y contribuyeron de manera masiva a la moralización de las clases populares gracias a la diversificación de los circuitos de difusión: librerías y asociaciones católicas, centros de la buena prensa.
