BONFIM (BR) E LETHEM (GY): ECONOMIA E TROCAS SIMBÓLICAS DE ESPACIALIDADES MARCADAS PELA DIVERSIDADE
Authors: Pereira Mariana Cunha
Published: May 2022

Este artigo revisita os dados da pesquisa etnográfica realizada entre períodos dos anos de 2003 e 2004 e, atualizados por observação de campo em viagens subsequentes em 2009; 2011; 2014. Os desenhos espaciais das cidades fronteiriças de Bonfim e Lethem me chamaram a atenção quando ali estive e sobre este aspecto construí a hipótese de que a espacialidade reflete como operam a economia e as trocas simbólicas daquela fronteira. A economia no sentido das relações comerciais, mas, também a economia política que denuncia as relações identitárias e de poder entre os moradores das duas cidades. E as trocas simbólicas aqui entendidas como saberes e valores que circulam entre eles. A discussão das espacialidades requisita o conceito de espaço, realizando assim um diálogo com a geografia. Por fim, o artigo reflete, também, as narrativas e documentações fotográficas sobre as duas cidades e seus moradores.
ECOS DO LUSO-TROPICALISMO: A PRESENÇA DO PENSAMENTO DE GILBERTO FREYRE NO DISCURSO DA LUSOFONIA
Authors: Freixo Adriano de
Published: May 2022

Nas décadas de 1980 e 1990, em Portugal, procurouse construir uma espécie de consenso nacional em torno da ideia da lusofonia, uma releitura, em novos parâmetros, do discurso secular da originalidade da cultura portuguesa e das marcas que ela deixou no mundo, a partir das grandes navegações dos séculos XV e XVI. Para legitimar tal ideia, amplos setores das elites culturais e políticas lusitanas procuraram em experiências passadas ou em escritos de intelectuais e pensadores portugueses e estrangeiros as bases discursivas que lhe dessem sustentação. Dentre esses pensadores, destaca-se o brasileiro Gilberto Freyre, com as suas teses sobre o lusotropicalismo e sobre a especificidade do “modo português de estar no mundo”, que se acabariam se tornando o principal arcabouço intelectual da lusofonia, ao serem ressignificadas em um contexto pós-colonial.

Saint Joaquim's Fort: from the milestone of the portuguese occupation on the Rio Branco valley to the battles of memory - XVIII to XX centuries
Authors: Vieira Jaci Guilherme , Filho Gregorio Ferreira Gomes
Published: May 2022

This article talks about the role of Saint Joaquim’s Fort in the consolidation of the border and of the occupation of the Rio Branco valley, located in the current State of Roraima. It strives to comprehend the process of occupation of the region in the end of the XVIII and XIX centuries, describe the colonial policies of the Portuguese and the Brazilian Empire alike, to discuss questions related to the memory of Saint Joaquim’s Fort, trying to emphasize the subjects who participated in this process. Moreover, there is a discussion about the dispute over Saint Joaquim’s Fort, a question that involves several segments of Roraima’s society, a memory that was appropriated by the so called “pioneer” families because some of them had their origins bound to ex-participants of the fortification and utilized them to justify their possessions and to consolidate their social place.
Las MYPE en Perú: saltando la valla de calidad para contribuir al crecimiento y al desarrollo
Authors: Ghezzi Piero , García Carpio Juan Manuel
Published: May 2022

Este documento trata la dinámica y los determinantes del crecimiento de las unidades productivas de menor tamaño (MYPE) utilizando el marco conceptual de la “valla de la calidad”, el cual pone énfasis en las condiciones y los factores necesarios para la “formalización productiva” mediante mejoras de desempeño sostenidas que les permitan pasar de una tecnología tradicional a una tecnología moderna. Se distingue un conjunto de unidades productivas que tiene el potencial de superar un umbral mínimo de capacidades asociado a su nivel de productividad, pero que, para lograrlo, requiere intervenciones públicas. Este planteamiento teórico se contrasta a nivel empírico y se complementa con un análisis cualitativo basado en estudios de casos exitosos, de unidades productivas que han superado dicha valla. Los hallazgos evidencian la necesidad de que el Estado intervenga con herramientas que ayuden a dar el salto de calidad en las distintas etapas de desarrollo de los emprendimientos, debido a que el mercado no las está brindando de manera suficiente. Estas intervenciones públicas deben adaptarse a las realidades particulares de las cadenas de valor o de los ecosistemas productivos.

More reliable and durable parts with high structural integrity are required to meet the increasing advancements in science and technology. This paper reviews five (5) different casting techniques: squeeze casting, sand casting, investment casting, die casting, and continuous casting. Their respective cast products were examined, and their various mechanical properties were discussed. However, these different casting techniques involve a similar fundamental procedure: melting metal, pouring it into a mold, and allowing it to solidify. However, they vary in their physical and mechanical properties, durability, and surface finishing, making one technique more desirable than the other in their application areas. Some techniques were found to be more advantageous and effective than the other, which will aid foundrymen in making the best decision in choosing a technique, considering parameters such as environmental friendliness and cost implications. The appropriate implementation of these will help restructure and refine foundries, improve the quality of cast products, and set the casting technology world on course for the new age.
Circ_0014359 promotes oral squamous cell carcinoma progression by sponging miR-149
Authors: Chen Xubin , Chen Jingxin , Fu Liangbin , Chen Jimin , Chen Yang , Liu Feng
Published: May 2022

This study aimed to explore the role and mechanism of circ_0014359 in the OSCC. We firstly investigated the expression levels of circ_0014359 in OSCC tissues and cell lines. Then, the effects of knocking down circ_0014359 on cellular viability, apoptosis, migration, and invasion of OSCC cell lines were observed by cell counting kit-8 assay, flow cytometry, and transwell assay. Xenografts mouse model was established to explore the in vivo effect of circ_0014359 on the tumor volume and size of OSCC. We found that circ_0014359 was highly expressed in the OSCC tissues and cell lines compared to the normal controls (P<0.05). The expression of circ_0014359 was associated with the survival of patients (P<0.05). For the OSCC cell lines, circ_0014359 knock down induced apoptosis and inhibited migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of OSCC cells (P<0.001). In vivo, silencing the circ_0014359 blocked the growth of OSCC tumors. The circ_0014359 can directly interact with the micro-RNA-149 (miR-149). Inhibition of miR-149 can rescue the inhibitory effects of circ_0014359 knock down on OSCC cells. The circ_0014359-miR-149 pathway may be a novel target for developing strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of OSCC.

Assessment of impact of stress on objectively and subjectively measured sleep quality in the working population
Authors: Kasperczyk Janusz , Zembala-John Joanna , Jośko-Ochojska Jadwiga
Published: May 2022

Wstęp

Wszechobecny stres ma wielokierunkowy wpływ na nasze zdrowie. Jednym ze szczególnie widocznych problemów, jakie generuje, są zaburzenia snu. Celem pracy była ocena wpływu subiektywnie ocenianego stresu na obiektywnie i subiektywnie mierzoną jakość snu oraz senność.

Materiał i metody

Metodą ankietową i aktygraficzną przebadano 179 zdrowych dorosłych osób w wieku 25–60 lat. Wykorzystano skalę senności Epworth (Epworth Sleepiness Scale – ESS), kwestionariusz jakości snu Pittsburgh (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index – PSQI) oraz rejestratory snu MotionWatch 8 wraz z oprogramowaniem MotionWare. Dane analizowano z wykorzystaniem programu Statistica 13.3.

Wyniki

Nasiloną senność zaobserwowano u 7,8% populacji, umiarkowaną u 15,1%, złą jakość snu u 29,7%. Średnie natężenie stresu oscylowało w granicach 3,1 pkt w 5-punktowej skali. Spośród badanych 27,4% doświadczało trudnych i przygnębiających problemów w życiu, z którymi jedynie 45,5% osób potrafiło sobie poradzić. Stres istotnie pogarszał jakość snu (PSQI) i wyniki badań aktygraficznych, trudne problemy w życiu przekładały się na pogorszenie jakości snu (PSQI), senność (ESS) oraz pogorszenie zapisu aktygraficznego. Na jakość snu, obniżenie senności oraz zapis aktygraficzny korzystnie wpływała umiejętność radzenia sobie ze stresem.

Wnioski

Stres istotnie pogarsza jakość snu, w niewielkim stopniu wpływając na senność dzienną. Metody kwestionariuszowe wydają się lepsze od aktygrafii do monitorowania wpływu stresu na jakość snu. Popularyzacja technik radzenia sobie ze stresem wydaje się bardzo wskazana jako skuteczna metoda profilaktyki zaburzeń snu, zwłaszcza w populacji pracującej.
Efficacy of Lemon Extracts in Controlling Mealy Bugs of Stored Yam (Dioscorea rotundata)
Authors: Adu-Gyamfi R. , Ankutse E. , Odonkor I. , Adu-Acheampong S.
Published: May 2022

Background: The use of plant extracts in controlling mealy bugs is widespread especially on stored products. Despite this, research on lemon extracts, which is known to be very effective against some insect pests are limited. We assessed the repellent ability of lemon extracts in controlling mealy bug infestation and observed if there was any added benefit of the extract in retarding sprouting of yams in storage. Methods: We used the complete randomized design with three treatments and three replications. The treatments consisted of lemon peels, lemon leaf extracts and a control. Ten tubers of Pona white yam variety were rubbed on the periderm with each treatment and placed on a shelf. Two yam tubers naturally infested with mealy bugs were placed at the edges of each replication to serve as sources of infestation. Result: Results showed that yam tubers treated with lemon peel extracts recorded relatively low mealy bug counts compared to untreated ones and, tubers treated with lemon extracts recorded relatively higher weights compared to those without any treatment. Furthermore, there were no significant differences in neither counted mealy bugs nor yam weight per treatment between extracts from leaves or peels. Lemon extract treatments did not affect sprouting and shelf life of tubers in storage. We conclude that lemon extracts are effective repellents of mealy bugs and can be promoted as a safe bio pesticide for stored yam against mealy bug infestation.
Potential Impact of using Genetically Modified Crops in Ethiopia: A Review
Authors: Feyisa Ashebir Seyoum
Published: May 2022

Agriculture in Ethiopia is reliant on the poor farmer’s income. Crop production in the country is hampered by a variety of factors, among them subsistence farming, inefficient use of farm inputs, climate change, poor export performance, policy uncertainty and low interest in agricultural credit are the major ones. Plant pests also pose a threat to food crops, resulting in significant losses for smallholder farmers and jeopardizing food security. Thus, Ethiopian policymakers recently recognized genetically engineered crops as a viable method of increasing food productivity and quality. A thorough empirical review had conducted, focusing on the status, potential benefits and drawbacks of genetically modified crop production in Ethiopia. Descriptive statistics had used, followed by raw data interpretation. Genetically modified crop production is an option for addressing food insecurity, malnutrition and the production of low-cost feedstock. However, as genetically modified crops become more prevalent in Ethiopian agriculture, humans, wildlife and the environment must all be considered. As a result, GM crops can help poor farmers improve their agricultural livelihoods if better national biosafety regulations had implemented.
​Effect of Different Organic Sources on Growth and Seed Quality Parameters of Black Gram [Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper]
Authors: Kumar Nallagatla Vinod , Patil M.B. , Nadagouda B.T. , Beerge Ramesh , Rani C. Sudha
Published: May 2022

Background: Pulses play an important role in Indian agriculture for sustainable production, improvement in soil health and environmental safety. They are a cheaper source of protein to overcome malnutrition among vegetarians due to the presence of a high percentage of quality protein which is nearly three times more than that of cereals. They are more responsive to organic manures but indiscriminate and continuous use of chemical fertilizers has venomous effects on soil physical, chemical and biological properties thereby affecting the sustainability of crop production, besides causing environmental pollution. Methods: The experiment consists of 12 treatments comprising organic amendments laid out in RCBD (completely randomized block design) with three replications. The black gram variety TAU-1 was sown with a spacing of 45 cm x 10 cm. The recommended dose of phosphorus for black gram was supplemented with different combinations of soil organic manures with equal proportions based on their P content. The required quantity of organic manures viz., Farmyard manure, vermicompost, Ghanajeevamrutha were uniformly incorporated into the soil as per the treatment three weeks before sowing. The organic manures to be applied were quantified equivalent to RDF (20 kg N+50 kg P2O5+0 kg K2O ha-1). Result: The studies showed that application of vermicompost+ghanajeevamrutha based on 100% RDP (Recommended dose of Phosphorus)+Rhizobium+PSB (Phosphorus Solubilizing bacteria) recorded significantly higher plant height (87.67 cm), number of branches per plant (6.33), relative chlorophyll content (48.11) and dry matter (2740.00 kg ha-1) with higher concomitant seed quality parameters like seed index (10.25 g) and protein content (22.7%) as compared to others. This study has demonstrated the importance of the usage of organics for improving the growth and seed quality parameters in black gram.

Authors: Pane Erlanda , Ismail  , Lesmana I Gede Eka , Hartantrie Rovida , Rifki Deni
Published: May 2022

Serbuk kayu memiliki potensi sebagai sumber energi baru terbarukan, namun pemanfaatannya masih rendah dikarenakan beberapa karakteristik negatif dari serbuk kayu antara lain kandungan oksigen yang tinggi, energi panas yang rendah, dan kadar air yang tinggi. Torefaksi merupakan salah satu metode yang dapat meningkatkan karakteristik serbuk kayu. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh proses torefaksi terhadap kualitas serbuk kayu. Metode penelitian menggunakan analisis eksperimental proses torefaksi dengan reaktor tipe batch yang dipengaruhi oleh parameter suhu (260 °C, 280 °C, dan 300 °C), waktu tinggal (30 menit), dan gas torefaksi sebagai gas inert. Karakteristik serbuk kayu yang meliputi nilai kalor, solid yield, energy yield, uji proximate dan ultimate menjadi data penting untuk menentukan keberhasilan proses torefaksi. Hasil penelitian menjelaskan bahwa proses torefaksi pada suhu 300°C merupakan hasil yang optimal. Kondisi ini dapat mengurangi solid yield dan energy yield serbuk kayu masing-masing sebesar 63% dan 84%; meningkatkan nilai kalor serbuk kayu sebesar 5350 kkal/kg (diklasifikasikan ke dalam kategori batu bara subbituminus); meningkatkan fixed carbon sebesar 33.35%; menurunkan volatile matter sebesar 60.97%; menurunkan kandungan oksigen dan hidrogen masing-masing sebesar 34.37% dan 5.72%. Kualitas serbuk kayu dari proses torefaksi disimpulkan dapat menjadi bahan bakar alternatif.

Utilization of Micro-Hydro in Tertiary Irrigation Canal for Paddy’s Pest Handling
Authors: Hardanto Afik
Published: May 2022

Kegagalan panen merupakan salah satu penyebab belum tercukupinya kebutuhan pangan di Indonesia. Penyebab utama kegagalan panen diakibatkan oleh hama, seperti: burung, penggerek, wereng, dan lain-lain. Potensi aliran irigasi tersier di Indonesia sangat besar tetapi belum dimanfaatkan secara optimal. Tujuan penelitian yaitu mendapatkan rancang bangun Wapoge (water power generator) yang mampu bekerja di saluran irigasi tersier dan bisa dimanfaatkan untuk pengendalian hama padi (hama burung dan serangga). Uji performansi dengan beban dilakukan pada rentang debit 48, 68, dan 77 liter/detik dan diimplementasikan pada lahan padi seluas 2500 m2. Energi listrik dimanfaatkan sebagai pengendali hama serangga (light trap) dengan tiga variasi daya lampu LED putih (3, 6, dan 9 watt), sedangkan energi gerak dimanfaatkan untuk pengusiran hama burung (orang-orangan sawah dan bunyi-bunyian). Pengamatan hama dilakukan secara visual, masing-masing dengan tiga ulangan. Debit aliran berbanding lurus dengan putaran turbin dan beda potensial yang dihasilkan. Light trap LED 9 watt mampu menangkap hama penggerek lebih banyak dan berbeda nyata dibandingkan dengan 3 dan 6 watt. Penggunaan Wapoge mampu mengusir hama burung secara signifikan pada tiga waktu pengamatan (pagi, siang, dan sore). Pemanfaatan energi baru terbarukan perlu terus dikembangkan untuk mendukung usaha tani.

Published: May 2022

Perkembangan teknologi NIR saat ini telah mencapai tingkatan yang lebih tinggi. Peralihan dari analisis kimia yang membutuhkan banyak waktu dan biaya menjadikan teknologi NIR sebagai salah satu pilihan teknologi yang hemat, cepat dan tidak menghasilkan residu limbah. Pada mulanya, NIR dibuat dalam tipe benchtop dengan ukuran yang besar, namun saat ini sudah berkembang menjadi handheld dan portable NIR. Hal ini didasari oleh keperluan untuk melakukan deteksi kandungan bahan pertanian secara real-time di lapangan yang tidak mungkin dilakukan oleh NIR tipe benchtop. Pemanfaatan teknologi handheld/portable NIR banyak diaplikasikan pada bidang pertanian untuk mengukur kadar air, total padatan terlarut, pH, sifat mekanik bahan pertanian dan lain sebagainya. Portable/handheld NIR memiliki dimensi yang kecil dan ringan sehingga memberikan kemudahan dalam melakukan analisis secara langsung dibandingkan dengan menggunakan NIR tipe benchtop yang berukuran besar. Namun demikian, tingkat akurasi, sensitivitas pengukuran, tingkat kebisingan, serta stabilitas pembacaan optik tidak lebih baik jika dibandingkan dengan NIR tipe benchtop. Sehingga potensi pengembangan portable/handheld NIR sebagai instrumen penginderaan berbasis IoT masih terbuka untuk dilakukan.

Realizou-se um estudo cienciométrico das publicações relacionadas às BLE, utilizando a coleção principal da base de dados Scopus, da editora Elsevier, em uma busca pelo termo "Lithium sulfur battery", considerando o período de 1960 a 2021. Desde 2012 até 2020, ocorreu um aumento do número de publicações. O país com maior número de publicações nessa área é a China, com cerca de 6500 documentos. Durante o levantamento bibliográfico da aplicabilidade e dos desafios acerca dessa tecnologia, percebeu-se que a eficiência do ciclo dessas baterias depende fortemente dos solventes utilizados. Avaliou-se a reatividade da solução por meio do estudo das propriedades geometricas dos solventes DIOX e DME. A solução 1:1 de DIOX e DME cumpre o requisito de baixa reatividade entre os solventes, garantindo a estabilidade dessa solução, característica importante para a escolha de solventes na fabricação de BLE.

Illocutionary literacy as a reflection of pragmaticon of secondary linguistic personality of a foreign language teacher: discourse semantic and didactic aspects
Authors: Malev Aleksey V. , Gusarova Vera S.
Published: May 2022

The technology of developing illocutionary literacy of a foreign language teacher by means of linguopragmatic analysis in the process of continuous linguistic and methodical training is presented. Pragmaticon is an essential aspect of the secondary linguistic personality, which largely determines the quality of communicative competence of a foreign language teacher. Illocutionary literacy is a marker of pragmaticon within the model of second language identity of a foreign language teacher. The content of pragmaticon of the secondary linguistic personality of a foreign language teacher includes acquisition of basic and specific professionally-related communicative intentions as well as choice of optimal strategies and tactics of communication. Pragmaticon is expressed via clusters of verbal and non-verbal expressive means within the chosen strategy. In order to achieve the set scientific goals, a model of a foreign language teacher’s secondary linguis-tic personality was developed, the main components of a foreign language teacher’s secondary linguistic personality pragmaticon were identified, and the linguistic and didactic potential of illocutionary literacy as a qualitative expression of pragmaticon was described. The proposed nomenclature of skills, which constitute the substantive and formal aspects of illocutionary literacy, is the core basis for the objects of mastering in the process of continuous linguistic and methodological training of a foreign language teacher. Linguopragmatic analysis in the unity of its dictum and modus parts is offered as a didactic means of pragmaticon development. Linguopragmatic analysis, in its turn, requires the development of subjective communicative experience, possession of the content side of professional activity, as well as reflexive and analytical skills. When properly organized, linguopragmatic analysis implements the subject-methodical core of modern pedagogical education.
Approaches to teaching agricultural university students a foreign language for professional communication
Authors: Makarowa Elena L. , Saenko Elena S.
Published: May 2022

Currently, there are three methodical approaches in the methods of teaching a professional foreign language: 1) a foreign language for specific purposes, 2) teaching specialized disciplines in a foreign language, and 3) an integrated approach. Each of them is focused on achieving specific learning objectives. Content and language integrated learning has a significant professional and linguodidactic potential. Its distinguishing feature lies in the fact that within the framework of one integrated course, students simultaneously develop a professional foreign language com-municative competence and professional competencies. The purpose of the research is to compare these three methodical approaches to learning and determine which of them are used in teaching students of agricultural universities. The study showed that at the moment the subject-thematic content of integrated courses has been developed for students of such areas of study as “Agrochemistry and Agrosoil Science”, “Gardening”, “Agroengineering” and “Technology of Production and Processing of Livestock Products”. The methodical dominant in the context of the implementation of integrated learning is the system of problematic foreign language professional tasks. Typologies of such tasks and professional cases were developed for students of the areas of study “Agroengineering” and “Technology of Production and Processing of Livestock Products”. As for students of other areas of training of an agricult
Types of foreign language video materials and the specifics of their influence on teaching English speaking

Published: May 2022

А smart syllabus with high effectiveness increased through the use of English-language videos is significant in a foreign language teaching. Despite the numerous publications on problems of learning English with the use of English-language films, there are practically no studies that include an analysis of the effectiveness of using films in grade 8 based on the students’ preferences and their level of English proficiency. The aim of the study is to identify the specifics of the English-language videos influence on teaching speaking English. Research methods are an experiment and a survey of students. The results of the study are described: 45.6 % of students prefer feature films as a type of English-language videos for learning speaking English. The experiment allowed to establish that the motivation of the students of grade 8 to learn to speak English depends more on the success of this process than on the level of the chosen film interest. The obtained results contribute to the development of the theory of teaching English in grades 8, and also represent an effective program of teaching English in schools.

Authors: Mukina Ekaterina Y.
Published: May 2022

The data obtained in the course of experimental studies on the development of coordination abilities with girls 12–13 years old with mental retardation are presented. The experiment is carried out for six months, classes – twice a week. Classes are built according to the classical scheme: preparatory, main and final parts. In order to develop coordination abilities, the following methods are applied: a gradual and constant increase in coordination complexity, a gradual in-crease in the accuracy of movements, overcoming irrational muscle tension. Also, classes of musi-cal and rhythmic education are held (using elements of rhythmic gymnastics), first a preliminary warm-up is carried out, then a gymnastic set of exercises. The complex of gymnastic exercises in-cluded jumping over an obstacle, “snake”, “eight”, running on a gymnastic bench, jumping from hoop to hoop, throwing a tennis ball at a target, jumping rope, climbing a gymnastic wall, jumping over an obstacle. At the end of the experimental study, a number of tests are carried out, which showed a positive trend in changes in coordination abilities in girls with mental retardation, which proved the effectiveness of the proposed methods.
Women’s social circle and leisure in the first third of the 18th century according to forensic documents
Authors: Vidnichuk Anastasiya O.
Published: May 2022

An attempt is made to reconstruct the female social circle and ways of spending leisure time in the 1700s–1730s. The fact that the reforms of Peter the Great transformed the everyday life of the noblewomen and gave them access to previously inaccessible forms of leisure activities has received sufficient coverage in historiography. But the impact of the reforms on the lives of pea-sant and urban women is still little studied. The purpose of the study is to find out how ties were built in society in the era of Peter’s reforms, how, on the one hand, representatives of different so-cial groups interacted with each other, and on the other hand, how relations between the sexes de-veloped. The analysis of forensic documents was used. This type of source is not obvious for the study of this topic, however, by focusing on situations and practices mentioned by the participants in the proceedings, but not directly related to conflict situations, the researcher is able to restore some details of everyday life. It was possible to raise questions about the impact of Peter the Great’s reforms on social ties and types of entertainment for women of the lower classes, about clashes with neighbors and scolding as specifically women’s types of violence, about the possibilities of forensic documents as sources for studying everyday life. The conclusion is made about the significant impact of housing and recruiting duties on building social ties and spending leisure time by women from the “grassroots”, as well as previously unknown archival sources are put into circulation.
Latvian “active nationalists” and the Latvian Conservatory
Authors: Malnach Alexander D.
Published: May 2022

In Latvia, as in several other Eastern European countries, nationalism remains an influential force that sets the agenda. Understanding the ideology and practice of modern nationalism involves studying its origin and evolution. The article uses an interdisciplinary approach and briefly outlines the prehistory and prerequisites for the emergence of Latvian “active nationalism” and, for the first time in historiography, examines in detail the relationship between the largest fascist organization in the first half of the 1920s – the Latvian National Club with the Latvian Conservatory, as well as the indirect influence of the ideas of “active nationalists” and reveals its close connection with the respectable circles of the Latvian bourgeoisie and with the leading Lat-vian bourgeois party Peasant Union. We conclude that a significant part of the Latvian artistic in-tellectuals, including pupils and graduates of the Latvian Conservatory, joined the Latvian fascism, which largely explains both the active cooperation of the Latvian intelligentsia with the Nazis during World War II, and the mass emigration of people of artistic professions from Latvia, in particular musicians, during the retreat of the German army.

Molecular pathology of thymoma and thymic carcinoma
Authors: Suster David I. , Basu Malay Kumar , Mackinnon A. Craig
Published: May 2022

Thymic epithelial tumors (TETs) comprise a heterogeneous group of epithelial-derived thymic neoplasms with diverse clinical behavior and underlying molecular genetic features. Owing to their rare nature, the molecular classification of TETs has only recently begun to be fully explored. The advent of advanced molecular studies, particularly the ability to sequence the DNA and RNA of tumors in a massively parallel fashion, has led to an increased understanding of the molecular underpinnings of thymic neoplasia. Thymomas, characterized by a heterogeneous group of molecular alterations, tend to have low mutational burdens and various copy number abnormalities including a characteristic loss of chromosomal material in the region of 6q25.2-p25.3, a recurrent, specific point mutation GTF2I p.L424H, and specific expression of certain microRNAs. Thymic carcinomas, in contrast, are generally characterized by increased tumor mutational burdens, multiple copy number alterations, and varied, non-recurrent, somatic mutations. Advances in molecular knowledge of TETs allow for more precise molecular classification of these tumors, and the presence of specific alterations aids in the diagnosis of borderline lesions. In the future, additional molecular studies will better delineate the molecular landscape of these tumors and may one day allow for more targeted treatment algorithms. This review aims to cover the current understanding of the molecular alterations thus far identified in thymomas and thymic carcinomas.
