Where Is Utopia in a Time of Disaster and Catastrophe?
Authors: Hyde Allegra , Gersdorf Catrin
Published: September 2023

In search of new literary voices that might present an answer to Amitav Ghosh’s 2016 lament on the failure of contemporary literary fiction to find forms that adequately express the multiple challenges of the Anthropocene, I came across a review of Allegra Hyde’s debut novel in the Los Angeles Times. The novel’s title, Eleutheria, was suggestive enough to pique my interest: etymologically, it evokes the concepts of liberty and freedom; geographically, it calls to mind the small island of Eleuthera in the Bahamas that was colonized in the late 1640s by a group of English Puritans known as the Eleutheran Adventurers. Add to this that Willa Marks, the novel’s narrator-protagonist, is a twenty-two-year-old member of Generation Z, the same generation as the students we teach these days, and Eleutheria (2022) becomes a worthy candidate for an American Studies syllabus. What kind of narrative tapestry was the author able to weave out of the materials of history, climate change, and a young generation’s growing frustration with the ecological and political state of the world? I was ready to discuss these and similar questions with a group of students in a seminar on Anglophone Literature in the Anthropocene during the summer semester 2023. Serendipitously, the son of an American colleague and long-time friend studied with Allegra Hyde at Oberlin College, where she is Assistant Professor of Creative Writing. He suggested that she might be willing to discuss her novel with a group of German students. When I issued the invitation to join us digitally for one session, she accepted. I interviewed Hyde, who is also the author of two short story collections – Of This New World (2016) and The Last Catastrophe (2023)– a few days later. The following text is the transcript of that conversation. It has been edited for readability.
Education, Experience, and Exchange: The Hull House Women, an International Network, and Chicago’s Immigrant Population
Authors: Bailey Cheylan Alice
Published: September 2023

This paper explores the creation and purpose of Chicago’s Hull House. It provides an overview of volunteer work by women in the US and addresses the European influence on Jane Addams’s idea for Hull House and the various educational aspects and approaches used by the Hull House educators.

Founded, funded, and administered by women, the Hull House settlement is shown as a prime example of the nascent spirit of American volunteerism that epitomized that era. Women were able to participate in the settlement because of the evolving perception of their role in society. It was possible to devote one’s life to charity and not to marriage and child-raising. The force of the Hull House residents was to combine their individual skills and strengths to work as a united group of very dynamic and talented women. Education, experience, and exchange were the three pillars of their very successful settlement home. In their efforts to reform and better the living conditions in the rundown Chicago neighborhood, the Hull House women became involved in politics and policymaking. Thereby, they began to have a voice which became louder and louder and could not be silenced.
Serving in the Household and the Imagination: The Brontës, Alcott, and the Interconnected Roles of a Neglected “Transatlantic” Female Figure
Authors: Guimarães Paula Alexandra
Published: September 2023

Tabitha Aykroyd, Martha Brown, Nancy and Sarah Garrs were just a few of the very many girls and women working as domestic servants in early Victorian Britain. The main purpose of this article is to analyze the precise context and conditions in which they were employed in Haworth Parsonage, where the Brontë sisters lived for most of their lives (1820–1855), and the influence that they had on the well-being of this famous family and on the imagination and literary activity of the sisters. Aspects connected with the following will be explored and problematized: the value and respect that the Brontës attributed to or showed these domestic laborers and their work, including sharing in their tasks and duties; brief but useful connections of these figures with the sisters’ own professional activities as middle-class women (namely, when serving as teachers and governesses themselves); and also comparison with some relevant literary representations of the figure and role of the “female servant” in the Brontës’ novels. A complementary purpose is of a more transatlantic nature: to compare their earlier British domestic context with Louisa May Alcott’s later American one, and their literary representations of the female servant with Alcott’s own extensive treatment of that neglected figure in some of her fictional works. The justification for this comparison does not lie so much in the known influence that the works written by the Brontës, in particular Charlotte’s, had on Alcott, but more in their sharing of very similar concerns as regards this topic, in spite of very specific (transatlantic) differences that can be revealing of their respective attitude towards servitude.

Transatlantic Women at Work: Service in the Long 19th Century
Authors: Heitz Laura-Isabella , Lute Khristeena , Nitz Julia , Petrulionis Sandra Harbert , Wetzel Esther
Published: September 2023

This special issue focuses on “Transatlantic Women at Work” in the 19th century, with attention paid specifically to the labor women performed that was deemed by family, community, government, and often the women themselves as “service.” Our introduction briefly describes the six articles and responses included in this issue, and their origins in an online forum in 2021 and 2022, three poems, and one fictional work. The overview of contributions is followed by an attempt at theorizing the understanding and conception of the idea of “service” from a diachronic perspective. This exploration of varying notions and the accompanying politics of “service” is organized in sections as follows: “The Evolving Concept of ‘Service’ in the Long 19th Century,” “Theorizing: What Is this Thing Called Service,” “The Tradition of ‘Service’ as a White, Middle-Class Notion,” “Women’s Service and Reform,” “Municipal Housekeeping as Service to the Community,” and “Women of Color and ‘Service to Their Race’.” Our examination of 19th-century conduct books and reform texts by and for women illuminates how evolving notions of service as benevolence was primarily connected to a well-to-do class of White women and conceptualized against a notion of servitude as hard (enumerated) labor associated with poor women and Women of Color. We show how since the beginning of the century Black activists fought against such racial essentialism. However, White service notions lastingly influenced both 19th-century (segregated) ideas of women’s social roles and 20th/21st century women’s historiography that continued to center White concepts of True Womanhood. We conclude by acknowledging that in our own 21st century, women (especially Women of Color) too often continue in the vicious cycle of being relegated to lower paid and lower status service work, professions which remain lower paid because they are held by women. As we point out, the recent Covid pandemic shed renewed light on this transatlantic reality.

The “Thingness” of the American Middlebrow:
Authors: Lanneau Hannah Grace
Published: September 2023

In this paper, I examine the ways in which Anita Loos’s Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby both critique and engage with materialism and consumerism as middlebrow texts. Bill Brown’s discussion of the power and meaning of “things” of literature (2003; 16-17) serves as a framework through which I analyze the double “thingness” of the middlebrow as depicted in these novels—that is, the simultaneous investment in and critique of consumer objects. To that end, I analyze both the print culture histories and content of Blondes (which is widely considered a middlebrow text in academic scholarship) in conversation with Gatsby (which is not always thought of as a middlebrow text). I argue that, rather than view middlebrow within a high/low brow paradigm, we should instead consider the ways in which the middlebrow operates with and within mass consumer culture as well as provides a critique of that culture. Because the American middlebrow has a distinct socioeconomic history, I demonstrate how these novels also grapple with the “thingness” of American identity and the Americanness of “things” by centering the protagonists’ engagement with material objects in the construction of their identities. Gatsby and Blondes demonstrate the middlebrow American quality of things through their narrative content, and the novels’ histories as print objects reflect their circulation as commercial things themselves.
This article challenges understandings of the “middlebrow” as a genre unto itself by examining the historical situatedness of the term and its evolving definitions. This article also invites renewed conversation around the middlebrow by proposing a new perspective and an alternative approach to the understanding of middlebrow literature. I argue that these novels present an ideal re-entry into discussion of the middlebrow because of their disparate print culture histories and the cultural capital (or lack thereof) they signify in the present day.  This article thus traces the print histories of these two novels alongside analyses of their reception histories and critiques the concept of a middlebrow literature, turning again to contradictory definitions of the term to suggest a more fluid understanding of the middlebrow in scholarship should be able to account both for the continuing appeal of early twentieth-century middlebrow literature and the ways in which the middlebrow itself as an aspirational aesthetic and consumerist ethic has evolved and is ubiquitous in the twenty-first century.
The Crucial Role of Awareness and Education in Promoting Effective Diabetes Self-Management and Reducing the Risk of Complications
Authors: AKAY ÇİZMECİOGLU Hilal , GÖKTEPE Mevlüt Hakan , CİZMECİOGLU Ahmet
Published: September 2023

Objective: Disease awareness is a pivotal factor in the management of illness. In chronic and progressive conditions, such as diabetes mellitus (DM), this awareness can be as effective as pharmacological interventions. This study aimed to assess how aware diabetic patients are of the complications of their disease.

Method: This cross-sectional survey included patients diagnosed with DM. A total of 14 survey questions, divided into 7 different categories, were directed at the patients. The singular questions evaluated the patients' awareness of the complications, while the associated-secondary questions aimed to inquire about the sources of their awareness.

Result: In this study, a survey was conducted with 300 diabetic patients, yielding a response rate of 90.2%. The mean age was 53 years. The level of awareness of complications was high among all patients (80.5%). The awareness level of ocular-related complications was the highest, while that of neuropathy was the lowest (50%). When patients were categorized by educational status, education increased awareness but decreased adherence to combined drug use. The patients' doctors were identified as the most significant source of support for raising awareness of complications. This support was further enhanced by the educational level.

Conclusion: High levels of awareness of complications related to diabetes, still being primarily provided by doctors, and improvement of patients' educational status, can lead to a decrease in the number of patients with a poor prognosis. Therefore, increasing awareness of diabetes-related complications and improving patients' educational status may positively impact reducing the incidence of poor prognosis among diabetes patients.
The efficacy of recombinant feline interferon-omega in treating symptomatic cats infected with feline immunodeficiency virus
Authors: Garrett Rachel
Published: September 2023

PICO Question
In symptomatic cats with feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV), does high-dose subcutaneous recombinant feline interferon-omega (rFeIFN-ω) administration lead to reduced clinical signs compared to cats who were not administered rFeIFN-ω?
 
Clinical bottom line
Category of research
Treatment.
 
Number and type of study designs reviewed
Three studies were critically reviewed, including one randomised controlled trial, one non-randomised controlled trial, and one uncontrolled clinical trial.
 
Strength of evidence
Weak.
 
Outcomes reported
Each of the studies reported that rFeIFN-ω administration significantly reduced clinical signs in FIV infected cats. However, all three papers have limitations in their study design and statistical analysis which lower the strength of the evidence they provide.
 
Conclusion
There is only weak evidence demonstrating that rFeIFN-ω administration leads to reduced clinical signs in FIV positive cats. Currently, there is a lack of well-designed, double-blinded, randomised, placebo-controlled clinical trials which have an adequate sample size and specifically focus on FIV positive cats. As a result, more robust evidence is needed to prove the definitive therapeutic benefit of rFeIFN-ω in symptomatic FIV patients. Treatment with rFeIFN-ω may still be considered by clinicians for cats with clinical signs potentially associated with retroviral infection, such as oral lesions and stomatitis, particularly if they are not responding well to supportive therapy alone.
 
How to apply this evidence in practice
The application of evidence into practice should take into account multiple factors, not limited to: individual clinical expertise, patient’s circumstances and owners’ values, country, location or clinic where you work, the individual case in front of you, the availability of therapies and resources.

Published: September 2023

Carotid atherosclerotic disease is a widely acknowledged risk factor for ischemic stroke, making it a major concern on a global scale. To alleviate the socio-economic impact of carotid atherosclerotic disease, crucial objectives include prioritizing prevention efforts and early detection. So far, the degree of carotid stenosis has been regarded as the primary parameter for risk assessment and determining appropriate therapeutic interventions. Histopathological and imaging-based studies demonstrated important differences in the risk of cardiovascular events given a similar degree of luminal stenosis, identifying plaque structure and composition as key determinants of either plaque vulnerability or stability. The application of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based techniques to carotid imaging can offer several solutions for tissue characterization and classification. This review aims to present a comprehensive overview of the main concepts related to AI. Additionally, we review the existing literature on AI-based models in ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT), and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for vulnerable plaque detection, and we finally examine the advantages and limitations of these AI approaches.

Increasing the production of red spinach can be done through fertilization. This research aimed to know the effect of dose, frequency application, and combination of dose and frequency application of liquid organic fertilizer from rabbit's urine on the growth and yield of red spinach plants. The research was conducted from December 2020 to February 2021 at the screen house in Melung Village, Kedung Banteng District, Banyumas Regency and the Laboratory of Agronomy and Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Jenderal Soedirman University. The research was carried out using polybag experiment in a screen house with 3 x 3 factorial treatment plus control. The experimental design was a Completely Randomized Block Design which resulted in 9 factorial and control treatments, repeated 3 times so that there were 30 experimental units. The first factor was the dose of liquid organic fertilizer from rabbit urine, which consisted of 3 levels, namely 150, 300, and 450 ml/plant. The second factor is the frequency of fertilization time which consists of 3 levels, that is 1x application (5dap), 3x application (5, 10, and 15 dap), and 5x application (5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 dap). Observation variables included plant height, number of leaves, leaf area, fresh plant weight, dry plant weight, fresh root weight, dry root weight, fresh crown weight and waste index. The data obtained were analyzed using the F test. If there was variance, the data was analyzed using the Dunnett test at a 95% confidence level. The dose of 300 ml/plant of liquid organic fertilizer of rabbit urine affected the growth of red spinach seen in the variables of fresh plant weight, dry plant weight, number of leaves, leaf area, and plant height. In addition, the fresh crown weight variable shows the effect on the yield of red spinach. The frequency of 5 times giving liquid organic fertilizer from rabbit urine affects the yield of red spinach seen in the fresh crown weight variable. A good combination was obtained between a dose of 300 ml/plant and a frequency of 5x administration of LOM rabbit urine on the growth of red spinach seen in the variable leaf area and fresh crown weight.

This paper proposes a position recognition method for the receiver coil by the secondary coil current. Based on the practical value of the current of the receiver coil, the position recognition of the receiver coil in the WPT system is realized. This paper proposes a 3×3 array multi-transmitter coil grouping and control logic. The mathematical model of mutual inductance between the receiver and transmitter coil at different positions on the X-Y plane is established. A method for identifying the position of the receiver coil according to the current of the receiver coil is proposed. Compared with the traditional position recognition method of the receiver coil, this method does not need to add a detection coil and position sensor and can realize the position recognition of the receiver coil on the 2D plane.
Directional Graph Attention Networks
Authors: Zhu Jiaqi
Published: September 2023

In recent years, graph neural networks (GNNs) have become a promising method for analyzing data structured in graph format. By considering connections between entities in a graph, GNNs are able to extract valuable insights. One notable variation of GNN is the graph attention network (GAT), which employs the attention mechanism and has demonstrated promising performance in various applications. However, its ability to incorporate feature information from nodes beyond the immediate neighborhood is limited, leading to degraded performance on heterophilic data. To address this limitation, this thesis proposes a novel attention-based model, namely the Directional Graph Attention Network (DGAT). This model combines the feature-based attention with the global directional information extracted from the graph topology, as inspired by the Directional Graph Network (DGN). A new class of Laplacian matrices is proposed and an existing theoretical result on DGN is extended. This extension bridges a gap in the literature. The experimental results presented in the thesis, based on nine real-world benchmarks and ten synthetic data sets, demonstrate the superiority of the proposed DGAT model compared to the GAT baseline model. Particularly on heterophilic data sets, DGAT showed a notable average increase of approximately 35% in node classification tasks across all heterophilic real-world data sets. In addition, DGAT outperforms GAT by an average margin of around 51% in all ten synthetic data sets with various levels of heterophily

Abstract: (1) Background: Surgery is the best curative option for Gastric Cancer (GC). However, morbimortality associated with surgery still a significant problem. Thus, it is essential to determine the preoperative surgical risk, to optimize outcomes in higher risk patients. (2) Methods: Patients who underwent curative gastrectomy between January 2010 and December 2013 were included, obtaining a sample of 131 patients, and the acuity of the scales understudy was evaluated. The predictive power of the scales was evaluated through calibration and discrimination. (3) Results and Conclusions: Regarding mortality, the scales demonstrated good calibration, with POSSUM and P-POSSUM obtaining the best O:E ratio. The scales presented good discrimination, with POSSUM showing the best result. Considering morbidity, the scales showed good calibration and discrimination. POSSUM and P-POSSUM seem to have potential in predicting morbidity and mortality when applied to the studied population, but there is a need for further studies in this area.
Three-Stage Sampling Algorithm for Highly Imbalanced Multi-Classification Time Series Data Sets
Authors: Wang Haoming
Published: September 2023

Purpose To alleviate the data imbalance problem caused by subjective and objective reasons, scholars have developed different data preprocessing algorithms, among which undersampling algorithms are widely used because of their fast and efficient performance. However, when the number of samples of some categories in a multi-classification dataset is too small to be processed by sampling, or the number of minority class samples is only 1 to 2, the traditional undersampling algorithms will be weakened. Methods This study selects 9 multi-classification time series datasets with extremely few samples as the objects, fully considers the characteristics of time series data, and uses a three-stage algorithm to alleviate the data imbalance problem. Stage one: Random oversampling with disturbance items increases the number of sample points; Stage two: On this basis, SMOTE (Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique) oversampling; Stage three: Using dynamic time warping distance to calculate the distance between sample points, identify the sample points of Tomek Links at the boundary, and clean up the boundary noise.Results This study proposes a new sampling algorithm. In the 9 multi-classification time series datasets with extremely few samples, the new sampling algorithm is compared with four classic undersampling algorithms, ENN (Edited Nearest Neighbours), NCR (Neighborhood Cleaning Rule), OSS (One Side Selection) and RENN (Repeated Edited Nearest Neighbours), based on macro accuracy, recall rate and F1-score evaluation indicators. The results show that: In the 9 datasets selected, the dataset with the most categories and the least number of minority class samples, FiftyWords, the accuracy of the new sampling algorithm is 0.7156, far beyond ENN, RENN, OSS and NCR; its recall rate is also better than the four undersampling algorithms used for comparison, at 0.7261; its F1-score is increased by 200.71%, 188.74%, 155.29% and 85.61%, respectively, relative to ENN, RENN, OSS, and NCR; In the other 8 datasets, this new sampling algorithm also shows good indicator scores.Conclusion The new algorithm proposed in this study can effectively alleviate the data imbalance problem of multi-classification time series datasets with many categories and few minority class samples, and at the same time clean up the boundary noise data between classes.
