Authors: Lavooy Vanina , Bouvet Raquel-Inés , Rodríguez-Gómez Jaime
Published: June 2022

Este trabajo busca identificar aspectos de un programa de desarrollo docente percibidos por profesores universitarios como útiles para su crecimiento docente. La propuesta de capacitación pedagógico-didáctica consistió en una serie de eventos de participación voluntaria desarrollados durante un semestre académico en una universidad mexicana. Mediante metodología cualitativa, se generaron categorías a partir del análisis de dos fuentes: respuestas inmediatas y escritas en las que los profesores evaluaban los aspectos que consideraban útiles de cada evento de capacitación al que asistieron, y breves entrevistas realizadas un mes después del evento. Como resultado, se presentan cinco categorías que enuncian las características de los eventos de capacitación consideradas útiles: obtener ideas prácticas, obtener sustento teórico, contar con espacio para la reflexión y toma de conciencia, aplicar la temática en estudio durante el evento, e intercambiar conocimientos, ideas y experiencias con colegas. Tales resultados tienen similitud con los de estudios realizados en Norteamérica, Europa, Asia y países nórdicos.

Published: June 2022

India is under the second wave of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). It seems that the second wave has created more impact than the first wave with an increased mortality rate. The mortality rate among young age group below 17 years is 0.05% with an increase of 16.6% above 17 years. Various studies have revealed that COVID-19 positive individuals show altered levels of both biochemical and hematological parameters with increased severity. To the best of our knowledge, no studies have investigated the altered levels with different age group. Hence, the study's primary goal is to assess biochemical and haematological parameters in COVID-19 positive individuals and compare the levels in different age groups of the South Indian population in the second wave of COVID-19. The subjects were divided into 3 groups based on their age as between 19-40 years, 41-60 years, and 61-80 years. The biochemical parameters measured included liver and renal function tests, electrolytes, inflammatory markers, and blood glucose. ESR and haematological parameters were measured. Under biochemical parameters, serum urea, uric acid, and creatinine increased significantly with increasing age group, whereas serum albumin decreased significantly with increasing age group. With ferritin and CRP, there was statistical significance among different age groups. It was found that diabetic patients with high HbA1C levels with increase age are more prone to COVID-19 infection. On hematological investigation significant decrease in the eosinophil count and increased basophil count were observed among different age group. The study concludes that compared to younger age groups, older ones with COVID-19 showed increase in immune and inflammatory markers, Markers of the adaptive immune response also increased with age. Hence, continuous monitoring and additional care must be given the older ones to reduce the effects of severity of COVID-19 among south Indian population.

Efficacy and safety of axillary vein puncture real-time guided by roadmap fluoroscopy in cardiac pacemaker implantation
Authors: Chen Qiying , Wu Bangwei , Zhu Zhidong , Shi Haiming , Li Junping , Jin Bo
Published: June 2022

Objective: Roadmap fluoroscopy has never previously been
evaluated for axillary vein puncture in clinical practice. Our
retrospective cohort study was performed to investigate the efficacy and
safety of axillary vein puncture real-time guided by roadmap fluoroscopy
in cardiac pacemaker implantation. Methods and Results: A total
of 178 patients undergoing axillary vein puncture in permanent pacemaker
implantation were included in the present cohort study during a 1-year
period at our institution. All procedures were performed by the
operators with previous experience in axillary approach. Primary
endpoint was defined as axillary vein success rate. Secondary endpoints
were venous access site change, time to obtain venous access, procedural
time, and complication rate. For the primary outcomes, a higher success
rate was observed in the roadmap group compared with the blind puncture
group (95.2% vs 78.7%; P<0.001), as well as a lower
rate of venous access site change (7.1% vs 35.1%; P
<0.001) and shorter time to obtain venous access and
procedural time, with lower complications (3.6 % vs 6.4 %;
P<0.01). Conclusion: The roadmap fluoroscopy
real-time guided axillary venous access is safer and has a better
success rate and faster execution time compared with the blind axillary
puncture in cardiac pacemaker implantation. However, further larger
scale prospective randomized controlled trials are required to confirm
the findings.
On extended partial (fuzzy) strong k-metric spaces

Published: June 2022

In this paper, we introduce a new notion of extended partial strong
k-metric spaces with controlled operators and provide some examples to
show that is different from extended k-metric spaces which initiated by
Kamran et al. Furthermore, we introduce the concept of extended partial
fuzzy strong k-metric spaces with controlled operators, which is a
generalization of extended k-metric in the sense of Mehmood given.
Finally, we establish fixed point theorems for self-mappings which
satisfy Banach contraction principle on extended partial fuzzy strong
k-metric spaces. Also, we provide some examples to illustrate our
results.
A Computational study of MgmHn nanoclusters with n:m ≥ 2:1 for efficient hydrogen storage
Authors: Shi Dongjie , Ni Youxuan , Li Geng , Yan Zhenhua , Zhao Qing , Xie Weiwei , Chen Jun
Published: June 2022

Magnesium-based hydrogen storage material (MgH) has
attracted much attention due to its high hydrogen storage density (7.6
wt%). However, the high hydrogen dissociation enthalpy and slow
hydrogen dissociation rate in bulk Mg hinder its wide application in the
efficient hydrogen storage. In the present work, we study the hydrogen
adsorption and desorption reactions of MgmHn (m = 1-6) nanoclusters
using density functional theory (DFT). From the global search for the
configurations of MgmHn nanoclusters, we found not only stable saturated
MgmHn (n = 2m) nanoclusters, but four hydrogen-enriched MgmHn
(n:m>2:1) nanoclusters, Mg3H7, Mg4H9, Mg5H11, Mg6H13, with
the hydrogen storage density higher than 8.3 wt%. The
electronic-structure calculations indicate that the stability of the
hydrogen-enriched cluster gets relatively higher for larger nanocluster.
The ab initio dynamics simulations shows that all
hydrogen-enriched clusters have very fast hydrogen dissociation rates,
which is promising for the hydrogen dissociation at ambient temperature
and pressure. This work provides insights into the hydrogen storage
mechanism of nano-magnesium materials.
The interactive effects of drought and heat stress on photosynthetic efficiency and biochemical defence mechanisms of Amaranthus species
Authors: Netshimbupfe Happiness , Berner Jacques , Gouws Chrisna
Published: June 2022

Drought and heat stress are major abiotic stress factors that limit
photosynthesis and other related metabolic processes that hamper plant
growth and productivity. Identifying plants that can tolerate abiotic
stress conditions is essential for sustainable agriculture.
Amaranthus plants can tolerate adverse weather conditions,
especially drought and heat, and their leaves and grain are highly
nutritious. Because of these traits, amaranth has been identified as a
possible crop to be grown in marginal crop production systems.
Therefore, this study investigated the photochemical and biochemical
responses of Amaranthus caudatus, A. hypochondriacus,
A. cruentus and A. spinosus to drought stress,heat shock
treatments and a combination of both. After six-leaf stage in a
greenhouse, plants were subjected to drought stress, heat shock
treatments and a combination of both. Chlorophyll a fluorescence
was used to evaluate the photochemical responses of photosystem II to
heat shock while subjected to drought stress. It was found that heat
shock and a combination of drought and heat schock damages photosystem
II, but the level of damage varies considerably between the species. We
concluded that A. cruentus and A. spinosus are more heat
and drought tolerant than A. caudatus and A.
hypochondriacus.
To Repair or Replace- The Root Dilemma in Aortic Dissections
Authors: Narayan Pradeep , Angelini Gianni
Published: June 2022

Significant dilemma exists regarding management of the aortic root
pathology in acute aortic dissections. Several strategies for both
repair and replacement exist and there is a lack of clarity on the
superiority of one over the other. Important factors that influence
management strategies include involvement of the sinuses, competence of
the aortic valve, presence of Marfan’s syndrome and connective tissue
disorders, as well as availability of surgical expertise. The wide
variability in these factors makes it unlikely for any one technique to
be suitable for management of all aortic roots and the root pathology
has to be tailored to an individual patient.

Published: June 2022

Environmental DNA measurement has been widely applied in organism
biomonitoring. Different DNA extraction methods may cause changes in
yield and stability, resulting in an inaccurate estimation of eDNA,
especially when quantitative measurements are performed. This study
focused on the DNA extraction method and compared its yield and
stability for stream fish and spiked DNA samples. Samples were collected
periodically over a year from river and lake water systems and eDNA was
spiked into them. The samples were extracted and compared using three
methods: using Buffer-AL for initial lysis with the DNeasy Blood and
Tissue Kit (Qiagen); using Buffer-ATL for initial lysis and the
microfluidic-channel method (BC method). The method using Buffer-ATL in
the DNeasy Blood and Tissue Kit showed better stability and a higher
yield than the Buffer-AL method. In addition, the BC method, despite
being comparatively simple, performed the extraction stably and with
relatively high yields. We showed that differences in DNA extraction
methods based on the long-term evaluation of eDNA measurements with
various methods may cause alterations in DNA yield and stability.

Assessment of soil erosion differences in paired grassland and forestland catchments using RUSLE and GIS on the Chinese Loess Plateau
Authors: Yang Siqi , Luo Da , Han Hao , JIN Zhao
Published: June 2022

In this study, two neighboring catchments on the Chinese Loess Plateau
were selected, in which one catchment was restored with natural
vegetation and the other was afforested over 60 years. The spatial and
temporal distributions of the soil erosion modulus between 2010 and 2020
were formulated with a spatial resolution of 2 m in the paired
catchments based on the revised universal soil loss equation and
geographic information system. The results showed that the average soil
erosion modulus in 2010-2020 was 12.58 and 8.56 t ha
a for the grassland and
forestland catchments, respectively. Areas with high soil erosion rates
(> 80 t ha a )
were mainly distributed in the topography of the middle transition zone
with a steep slope gradient (> 45°). Moreover, the average
annual rainfall erosivity for the grassland and forestland catchments in
2010-2020 was 1628 and 1851 MJ mm/ (ha ·h ·a), respectively. In this
study, the forestland catchment showed high rainfall erosivity and a low
soil erosion rate. We conclude that a dense cover of trees and
understory in the gully of the forestland catchment played a crucial
role in controlling soil loss. This study fills a gap in mapping the
spatial distribution of soil erosion with high-resolution data and
provides a reference for soil conservation and water management at the
catchment scale.

A male passenger arriving at Nanning Wuxu Airport in Guangxi on an
international flight from Jakarta, Indonesia, was found to be positive
for SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid on a routine test at the airport on June 8
2021. The passenger was sent to Fourth People’s Hospital of Nanning
immediately for further isolation and observation. On the day of
admission, the test for SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid of nasopharyngeal swabs,
pharyngeal swabs and sputum specimens were positive (CT values of N gene
and ORF1ab gene were between 20 and 30). After 8 weeks of
hospitalization, the patient’s test for SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid of all
specimens turned to negative. We isolated a SARS-CoV-2 variant strain
from the nasal swab of the patient, and then we found that the genome
sequence of the variant strain had 13 base deletions and 38 nucleotide
mutations compared with that of the Novel Coronavirus Wuhan strain after
sequencing, comparison and analysis. The deletions and mutations of the
variant strain resulted in four amino acid deletions and 30 amino acid
mutations. Furthermore, we found that the variant strain was similar to
those from Indonesia, South Korea and The United Kingdom after
conducting BLAST analysis on GISAID platform, among them, hCOV-19
/Indonesia/ Ji-ITD-43591N /2021 was the most similar, with 99.98%
similarity and only 8 base differences. The maximum likelihood
phylogenetic tree was constructed taking the Wuhan strain as the root
and including most the reference sequence contained most of the epidemic
strains. The result showed that the strains isolated in our laboratory
belonged to Delta strain.

Published: June 2022

Two-dimensional metal-organic frameworks (2D-MOFs) have been extensively
studied as promising materials in the fields of eletrocatalysis, drug
delivery, electronic devicese, etc. However, few studies have explored
the application potential of 2D-MOFs in novel neuromorphic computing
devices. In this work, we report an optoelectronic neuromorphic
transistor based on a 2D-MOFs/polymer charge-trapping layer. We found
that, the large specific surface area, stable crystal structure, and
highly accessible active sites in 2D-MOFs make them excellent
charge-trapping materials for our devices, which are beneficial for
mimicking the memory and learning functions observed in the organism’s
nervous systems. Different types of synaptic behaviors have been
realized in our 2D-MOFs-based neuromorphic devices under stimuli signal,
e.g., paired-pulse facilitation, excitatory post-synaptic current,
short-term memory, and long-term memory. More interestingly,
emotion-adjustable learning behavior was realized by changing the value
of the source-drain voltage. This work can shed light on the application
of 2D-MOFs in neuromorphic computing and will contribute to the further
development of neuromorphic computing devices.

Published: June 2022

This paper proposes a HV (high-voltage) level shifter to shield the
dV/dt noise. When there is the dV/dt noises, the proposed level
shifter’s output is locked by the dV/dt noise shielding circuit. So, the
proposed level shifter has infinite dV/dt immunity, which is not
affected by the supply voltage, and processes. In the 0.5µm BCD process,
the proposed level shifter is simulated, realizing the ±250V/ns dV/dt
noises shielding function and less than 1.5ns delay time under the 400V
HV power supply.

Diabetes distress, depressive symptoms, and anxiety symptoms in people with type 2 diabetes: A network analysis approach to understanding comorbidity
Authors: McInerney Amy M , Lindekilde Nanna , Nouwen Arie , Schmitz Norbert , Deschênes Sonya S
Published: June 2022

  

Objective

This study aimed to explore interactions between individual items assessing diabetes distress, depressive symptoms, and anxiety symptoms in a cohort of adults with type 2 diabetes using network analysis.

Research design and methods

Participants (N = 1,796) were from the Evaluation of Diabetes Insulin Treatment (EDIT) study from Quebec, Canada. A network of diabetes distress was estimated using the 17 items of the Diabetes Distress Scale (DDS-17). A second network was estimated using the 17 DDS-17 items, the 9 items of the Patient Health Questionnaire, and the 7 items of the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Assessment. Network analysis was used to identify central items, clusters of items, and items that may act as bridges between diabetes distress, depressive symptoms, and anxiety symptoms. 

Results

Regimen-related and physician-related problems were amongst the most central (highly connected) and influential (most positive connections) in the diabetes distress network. Failure (depressive symptom) was found to be a potential bridge between depression and diabetes distress, being highly connected to diabetes distress items. The anxiety symptoms of worrying too much, uncontrollable worry, and trouble relaxing were identified as bridges linking both anxiety and depressive items, and anxiety and diabetes distress items, respectively.

Conclusions

Regimen-related and physician-related diabetes-specific problems may be important in contributing to the development and maintenance of diabetes distress. Feelings of failure and worry are potentially strong candidates for explaining comorbidity. These individual diabetes-specific problems and mental health symptoms could hold promise for targeted interventions for people with type 2 diabetes.
New evidence of central nervous system damage in diabetes mellitus: impairment of fine visual discrimination
Authors: Chen He , Wang Menghan , Xia Lin , Dong Jiong , Xu Guangwei , Wang Ziyi , Feng Lixia , Zhou Yifeng
Published: June 2022

  

Diabetes can damage both the peripheral sensory organs, causing retinopathy, as well as the central visual system, leading to contrast sensitivity and impaired color vision in patients without retinopathy. Orientation discrimination is important for shape recognition by the visual system. Our psychophysical findings in this study show diminished orientation discrimination in diabetic patients without retinopathy. To reveal the underlying mechanism, we established a diabetic mouse model and recorded in vivo electrophysiological data in the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) and primary visual cortex (V1). Reduced orientation selectivity was observed in both individual and populations of neurons in V1 and dLGN, which increased in severity with disease duration. This diabetes-associated neuronal dysfunction appeared earlier in the V1 than dLGN. Additionally, neuronal activity and signal-to-noise ratio is reduced in V1 neurons of diabetic mice, leading to a decreased capacity for information processing by V1 neurons. Notably, the V1 in diabetic mice exhibits reduced excitatory neuronal activity and lower levels of phosphorylated mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). Our findings show that altered responses of both populations and single V1 neurons may impair fine vision, thus expanding our understanding of the underlying causes of diabetes-related impairment of the central nervous system.

Published: June 2022

The article deals with the issue of future interpreters’ training. The essence, content and components of the interpreter’s professional competence have been characterized. There has been analyzed communicative competence as one of the main skills for future specialists in the sphere of translation. Communicative competence is an integrated use of language and nonlanguage means of communication. The basis of communicative competence are communicative skills formed through speech skills. Communicative competence also implies the ability to interpret non-verbal forms of communication. Translation as a special type of communicative activity aims at providing the opportunity to communicate and exchange information in a situation of intercultural (bilingual) communication. The process of translation is a kind of language activity, which aims at the most complete reproduction of the content and form of a target text. There have been used different methods in the study: general scientific (analysis and synthesis), methods of theoretical research, descriptive method (classification, cataloguing), continuous sampling method alongside definition analysis.

Published: June 2022

Anatomical and physiological vocabulary is used in Expressionism for a range of specific artistic purposes. The paper identifies the situations, in which such lexical units are used and analyzes the purpose of their application in the context of Austrian Expressionist literature. Along with references to the most important theoreticians and experimentalists of Austrian Expressionism, the present research is largely based on the prose by Gustav Meyrink (1868-1932). The research demonstrated that the vocabulary of human anatomy and physiology in Meyrink’s prose effectively implements specific Expressionist intentions: (1) anti-aesthetic strategy and revolt against the classical canons of beauty; (2) erosion of the frontiers between the literary discourse and non-textual reality; (3) designing the atmosphere of horror and shocking the burghers; (4) synaesthetic word-formation for the purpose of lexical “condensation” of images; (5) the motif of conflict between the father and the son; (6) development of the grotesque image of the City through the techniques of synecdoche and hyperbole; (7) reconstruction of the divine component that would unify people. In addition to a range of classical Expressionist intentions, Meyrink’s prose also employs the anatomical vocabulary for the manifestation of intellectual sensualism, which is typical of Viennese Expressionism. Thus, the analysis of Gustav Meyrink’s prose demonstrated the author’s deliberate choice of anatomical and physiological terminological units, which gives us ground to conclude that the vocabulary of human anatomy and physiology constitutes an integral part of Expressionism in general, and a significant feature of Austrian Expressionist literature in particular.

The article deals with the contemporary situation in education sphere in Ukraine, describing the main aspects of STEM implementation. The article analyzes the main aspects of a learning strategy STEM which provides students mainly with an interdisciplinary approach to learning. Both the advantageous and disadvantageous issues of this learning approach are revealed in the article. The peculiarities of STEAM learning method in Ukraine have also been emphasized. In the course of the study, it has been discovered that modern educational system faces lots of challenges and needs to be improved by implementing an interdisciplinary approach to learning such as STEM education that promote not only skills such as critical thinking, problem solving, higher-order thinking, but also behavioral competencies such as adaptability, cooperation, organization, and responsibility. Examples of the implementation of STEM-education in the scientific and pedagogical project "Scientific and methodological foundations for creating an innovative model of STEM education" are presented. Despite the fact that Ukrainian schools are just beginning to prepare for work on the principles of STEM, some typical features of the introduction of STEM education, which is new to us, are already obvious. Significant shortcomings are, among other reasons, an insufficient number of teachers willing to work in a new way, and an insufficient material and technical base. These two aspects partially hinder the introduction of STEM-direction, based on the integration of knowledge, attraction of resources, cooperation of skills.

Authors: Orel Iryna
Published: June 2022

Der Artikel betrachtet die nationalkulturellen und transkulturellen Typen von Präsupposition, ihre genetischen Gruppen, auf deren Grundlage die innere Form, die Ausdrucksbedeutung gebildet werden und die Prozesse semantischer Modifikationen stattfinden. Präsupposition wird als extralinguale Information verstanden, die Kohärenz und Logik der Bedeutung der Phraseologie liefert, um ein Stereotyp zu bezeichnen. Aus diesem Grund wird die Präsupposition als Grundelement der kommunikativ-pragmatischen Struktur der Phraseologismen betrachtet. Da die Präsupposition die Grundlage der Semiose ist, werden ihre Merkmale in dem Basis der inneren Form als semantische Voraussetzung betrachtet. Unter außersprachliche Präsupposition verstehen wir eine Reihe von Bildern, eine Kombination von einem Bild oder von Bildern mit Szenarien in ihrer Interaktion, ein Handlungsoder Verhaltensschema unter bestimmten Bedingungen. Bilder und Handlungsschemata werden auf dem Grund der von den Sprechern herausgegriffenen Merkmale neu gedacht, die aus der Menge der verfügbaren nach dem Wert, dem wichtigen Prinzip ausgewählt werden. Diese Merkmale bilden in Kombination eine innere Form, die den Prozess der Semiose motiviert. Die innere Form der Phraseologismen wird auf dem Basis von Präsupposition gebildet. Das funktioniert aufgrund: ausgewählter Merkmale von Bildern, die die Präsupposition bilden; ausgewählter Merkmale des Verhaltensszenario oder des Handlungsschemas; eine Kombination von Merkmalen des Bildes und der Situation, die den Inhalt der Präsupposition widerspiegelt. Die Analyse des nationalkulturellen Typs der ergab 10 genetische Gruppen. Der transkulturelle Typ enthält 4 genetische Gruppen. Phraseologismen zur Bezeichnung von Stereotypen, die auf Präsupposition basieren, unterliegen sprachbedingten semantischen Modifikationen und nonverbale Faktoren.

Authors: Pikalova Anna
Published: June 2022

This paper aims to consider intertextuality and discover its types in Roald Dahl’s poetry intended for children. The study focuses on the poetic texts rather than the author and reader, although the author and children-readers are regarded either. The data used for this study are R. Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes (1982), Dirty Beasts (1983), and Rhyme Stew (1989) devoted to children from seven years old and above. Acknowledging “intertextuality” as the concept for indicating the relation between the texts, the classification of types of intertextuality proposed by R. Pope (2002), has been taken into consideration in analyzing the data. This article includes the recognition of the types of intertextuality in R. Dahl’s poetry for children. According to the scholar’s division (Pope, 2002), three types of intertextuality are distinguished. They are explicit, implied and inferred intertextuality. Mainly, analyzing the data testifies explicit intertextuality as the most frequent type in R. Dahl’s poetry for older children.
COGNITIVE PECULIARITIES OF METAPHORS IN ENGLISH AND AZERBAIJANI PUBLICISTIC TEXTS
Authors: Tanriverdiyeva Husniyya
Published: June 2022

The article discusses metaphor, metaphorical transfer and pragmatic features in English and Azerbaijani publications. The article states that in cognitive linguistics, they have increasingly resorted to metaphors in recent years. This type of metaphor, often mentioned in stylistic and rhetoric, appears as a result of complex mental processes that are the focus of cognitive linguistics. In all cases, metaphorism is creativity. The transfer of our language in the vocabulary includes both mental and physical subjects. Metaphorical transfers refer to mental transfers and are abstract in nature. The transfer mechanism is such that the sign of one of the two objects close to each other is transferred to the other. In this process, of course, at first glance, a logical discrepancy catches the eye, despite the fact that there is a very strong logic in this illogicality. In political and journalistic styles, there are many metaphors of this kind, in which, despite the preservation of imagery, metaphoricity has practically disappeared. In theoretical linguistics, these metaphors are called erased. In order for them to appear, they should be widely developed and activated in the appropriate language. Metaphorical erasure is the next process. The result is the creation of new shades of meaning in these tokens.

The transition from a bipolar to a post-bipolar system of international relations and the reunification of the FRG and the GDR in 1990 marked the beginning of a new stage in the history of Germany. The article examines the period of transformation and adaptation of the foreign policy of reunited Germany to the realities of the post-bipolar world order. The purpose of this study is to analyze the main directions of German foreign policy during the chancellorship of Helmut Kohl. At that time it was important for the FRG to strengthen stability and develop democracy in the territories of neighboring eastern countries. The position of the FRG in German-American relations had also changed. Reunited Germany became a strategically important partner of the United States in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and one of the central countries to initiate NATO expansion into Eastern Europe. Bilateral relations between Germany and Russia during the period under review developed in a positive way, since after the collapse of the USSR and the reunification of Germany both countries were in search of new foreign policy benchmarks. Providing a detailed description of the actions of the first government of reunited Germany in adapting the country to the new external conditions, the author concludes that a new geopolitical situation was formed in Europe after the reunification of the FRG and the GDR.
