Authors: Lingyan He
Published: November 2023

Exploring the countermeasures to improve the teaching effectiveness of ideological and political theory courses in colleges and universities through the perspective of social cognitive theory is the main goal of this dissertation. Starting from the introduction of the basic concepts and main ideas of social cognitive theory, the abstract gradually analyzes the problems of teaching ideological and political theory courses in colleges and universities and puts forward the necessity of improving teaching effectiveness. On this basis, the abstract systematically discusses the countermeasures and methods to enhance the teaching effectiveness of ideological and political theory courses in colleges and universities, including improving the professional quality of teachers, innovating teaching forms and methods, and strengthening students’ ideological and political education. The research results of this dissertation are summarized and future research directions are proposed. The innovations of this dissertation include the exploration of teaching efficacy of ideological and political theory courses in colleges and universities based on social cognitive theory, the systematic discussion of countermeasures to enhance teaching efficacy, and the in-depth analysis of the problems of teaching and the provision of solutions. The teaching effectiveness of ideological and political theory courses in colleges and universities can be effectively enhanced by improving the professional quality of teachers, innovating teaching methods and approaches, and strengthening students’ ideological and political education. Future research can further explore how to apply social cognitive theory to the teaching of other disciplines in order to promote the development of education.
Islamic Heritage in Russian Turkestan as Seen by the Imperial Muslim Offi cial (Based on the “Tourist’s Notes” by Sh. Ibragimov)
Authors: Kozintcev M. A. , Pochekaev R. Yu.
Published: November 2023

The article analyzes the unfi nished and unpublished work “Travel Sketches. ‘Tourist’s Notes’” by Shakhimardan M. Ibragimov kept at the Archives of the Orientalists of the Institute of Oriental Manuscripts, RAS (St. Petersburg, Russia). The text refl ects the results of Ibragimov’s trip to the Russian Turkestan during the performance of his offi cial duties and his observations on the daily life of the local population. Being a Turk and a Muslim, Ibragimov paid much attention to the objects of Muslim historical heritage in Turkestan, the state of Islamic institutions (mosques, madrasahs, rabats) and the status of representatives of the clergy (khojas, faqihs), etc. At the same time, he sometimes critically examined the information he received about the local antiquities and even questioned the Muslim origin of some historical monuments and folk customs. According to the authors, this position of Ibragimov can be explained by the fact that he was not only a Muslim, but also an offi cial in the service of the Russian Empire. Perhaps he also took into account the preferences of potential readers of his “Notes”. At the same time, there is no reason to believe that Ibragimov was skeptical about Islam — on the contrary, his interest in historical monuments and religious sites, as well as a number of circumstances of his life and career indicate the opposite. The analyzed “Notes” are of considerable interest as a source on the history, ethnography and religious life of Turkestan. They also refl ect the level of development of Russian Oriental studies in Turkestan in the second half of the 19th century, combining elements of a travelogue and a research.
On Rate Performance of M-ary Amplitude Shift Keying Compact Ultra Massive Array Systems for Massive Connectivity
Authors: Wong Kai-Kit , Chae Chan-Byoung , Zhang Yangyang
Published: November 2023

Compact ultra massive array (CUMA) is a new form of the emerging fluid
antenna system (FAS) where a huge number of flexible-position antennas
are selected to produce the output signal. By making sure that the
in-phase channels (similarly for the quadrature channels) of the desired
signal at the selected antenna ports align, it builds an advantage of
the desired signal over the interference. It is known that CUMA as a
multiple access scheme is able to deal with hundreds of users on the
same channel use, in the case of rich scattering, if binary phase shift
keying (BPSK) is considered. It is nevertheless unclear if higher-level
modulation can bring even greater network rate in this extreme massive
connectivity scenario. In this letter, we investigate this situation by
presenting the average data rate expression of CUMA when M-ary amplitude
shift keying (ASK) is used, assuming a binary symmetric channel.
Numerical results reveal that M-ary ASK can indeed raise the rate
performance considerably.
Distance protection of transmission lines emanating from photovoltaic power plants based on superconducting magnetic energy storage
Authors: Dai Zhihui , Liu Meiyuan , Wang Wenzhuo , Zhu Weiping
Published: November 2023

Due to influences of a control strategy reliant on photovoltaic(PV)
inverters, weak feedback of PV power plants and controlled
characteristics of current phases make the measured impedance of PV-side
distance protection of outgoing transmission lines unable to reflect the
location of faults. In this paper, the solution equations of the line
short-circuit impedance are accurately derived according to the fault
component sequence network diagram of the transmission line. Based on
the superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) connected to the DC
bus of the photovoltaic station, the traditional
low-voltage-ride-through(LVRT) control strategy is changed. The unknowns
in the equations are eliminated by the control and protection
coordination, and then the short-circuit impedance is solved. Compared
with the existing methods, there is no approximate calculation in this
method, and the accuracy of the calculation is greatly improved. In
addition, while reasonably solving the unreliable action of distance
protection, it also takes into account the reactive power support of the
photovoltaic station for the power grid during the fault period. Instead
of being weakened, the LVRT capability is even enhanced.
The use of a large language models to create plain language summaries of evidence reviews in healthcare: a feasibility study
Authors: Ovelman Colleen , Kugley Shannon , Gartlehner Gerald , Viswanathan Meera
Published: November 2023

Introduction: Plain language summaries (PLSs) make complex healthcare
evidence accessible to patients and the public. Large language models
(LLMs) may assist in generating accurate, readable PLSs. This study
explored using the LLM Claude 2 to create PLSs of evidence reviews from
the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) Effective Health
Care Program. Methods: We selected 10 evidence reviews published from
2021-2023, representing a range of methods and topics. We iteratively
developed a prompt to guide Claude 2 in creating PLSs which included
specifications for plain language, reading level, length, organizational
structure, active voice, and inclusive language. PLSs were assessed for
adherence to prompt specifications, comprehensiveness, accuracy,
readability, and cultural sensitivity. Results: All PLSs met the word
count. We judged one PLS as fully comprehensive; 7 mostly comprehensive.
We judged 2 PLSs as fully capturing the PICO elements; 5 with minor PICO
errors. We judged 3 PLSs as accurately reporting the results; 4 with
minor result errors. We judged 3 PLSs as having major result errors for
incorrectly reporting total participants. Five PLSs met the target
6th-8th grade reading level. Passive voice use averaged 16%. All PLSs
used inclusive language. Conclusions: LLMs show promise for assisting in
PLS creation but likely require human input to ensure accuracy,
comprehensiveness, and the appropriate nuances of interpretation.
Iterative prompt refinement may improve results and address the needs of
specific reviews and audiences. As text-only summaries, the AI-generated
PLSs could not meet all consumer communication criteria, such as textual
design and visual representations. Further testing should explore how to
best leverage LLM support in drafting PLS text for complex evidence
reviews.
The Limits to Equity in Water Allocation Under Scarcity
Authors: Hassan Wasim , Manzoor Talha , Muhammad Abubakr
Published: November 2023

Equitable water allocation in real-world irrigation systems is hampered
by supply fluctuations, posing a significant challenge to the goal of
promoting fairness among consumers. In this paper, we concern ourselves
with the limits of equity achievable for any water allocation scheme
across the entire spectrum of water supply conditions. In the process,
we develop a typology of canonical water allocation mechanisms that
categorizes mechanisms w.r.t. the distribution of fulfilled demand
across the users. Adopting specific notions of supply reliability and
distribution equity, we derive the theoretical performance limits for
all canonical mechanisms and extend the analysis to arbitrary allocation
mechanisms. We show that for any value of supply reliability, the best
possible equity is realized by mechanisms that uniformly distribute
water among users, whereas the worst possible equity is associated with
mechanisms that prioritize the demand of some users before allocating
water to others. We also show that any intermediate equity level can be
realized by adjusting the initial entitlements prior to allocating water
to fulfill demands, in an approach we categorize as hybrid allocation.
We parameterize the performance boundaries for such allocation schemes
based on the fraction of supply allocated to initial entitlements. We
discuss how this parameter can serve as a policy tool to balance the
goals of equitable water access with other system-level objectives. In
the end, we complement the analytical results with numerical simulations
of a selected agricultural district from a real-world irrigation system
and speculate about the application of our study to large-scale
hierarchical systems.
Surface Air-Pressure Measurements from Space Using Differential Absorption Radar on the right wing of the 60 GHz oxygen band
Authors: Battaglia Alessandro , Rumi Emal , Reeves Richard , Sikaneta Ishuwa , D'Addio Salvatore
Published: November 2023

Surface Air-pressure is one of the most important parameters used in
Numerical WeatherPrediction (NWP) models. Although it has been measured using weather
stations onthe ground for many decades, the numbers of measurements are sparse and
concentratedon land. Global measurements can onlybe achieved by using remote sensing from Space, which is challenging;
however, a novel design using Differential Absorption Radar (DAR) can
provide a potential solution. The technique relies on two facts: firstly
the electromagnetic fields are absorbed mainly by two atmospheric
components the oxygen andwater vapour, and secondly that oxygen is well mixed in the atmosphere.
In this workwe discuss a space-borne concept, which aims at providing near global,
consistent, andregular observations for determining surface air pressure from space by
a design of a multi-tone radar operating on the upper wing of the O2
absorption band with tones from 64 to 70 GHz. Simulations of radar
vertical profiles based on the output of a state of-the-art
microphysical retrievals applied to the A-Train suite of sensors are
exploited to establish the performance of such a system for surface
pressure determination. In particular the identification and
quantification of errors introduced by the presence of water vapour,
cloud liquid water and rain water and the potential of a correction via
the three-tone method is discussed. Results show that accuracies of the
order of few hPa are at reach.
The temperature of the deep ocean is a robust proxy for global mean surface temperature during the Cenozoic
Authors: Evans David , Brugger Julia , Inglis Gordon N. , Valdes Paul
Published: November 2023

Reconstructing past changes in global mean surface temperature (GMST) is
one of the key contributions that palaeoclimate science can make in
addressing societally relevant questions and is required to determine
equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS). Previous work has suggested that
the temperature of the deep ocean (Td) can be used to determine GMST
with a simple Td-GMST scaling factor of 1 prior to the Pliocene.
However, this metric lacks a robust mechanistic basis, and indeed, such
a relationship is intuitively difficult to envisage given that polar
amplification is a ubiquitous feature of past warm climate states and
deep water overwhelmingly forms at high latitudes. Here, we interrogate
whether and crucially, why, this relationship exists using a suite of
curated data compilations generated for key deep-time climate intervals
as well as two independent sets of palaeoclimate model simulations. We
show that models and data are in full agreement that a 1:1 relationship
is a good approximation. Mechanistically, both sets of climate models
suggest that i) increasingly seasonally biased deep water formation, and
ii) a faster rate of land versus ocean surface warming are the two
processes that act to counterbalance a possible polar
amplification-derived bias on Td-derived GMST. Using this knowledge, we
interrogate the quality of the existing deep ocean temperature datasets
and provide a new Cenozoic record of GMST. Our estimates are
substantially warmer than similar previous efforts for much of the
Paleogene and are thus consistent with a substantially
higher-than-modern ECS during deep-time high CO2 climate states.
Theoretical Stability of Ice Shelf Basal Crevasses with a Vertical Temperature Profile
Authors: Coffey Niall Bennet , Lai Ching-Yao , Wang Yongji , Buck W. Roger , Surawy-Stepney Trystan , Hogg Anna E
Published: November 2023

Basal crevasses threaten the stability of ice shelves through the
potential to form rifts and calve icebergs. Different existing fracture
theories lead to distinct calving predictions. Furthermore, it is
important to determine the dependence of crevasse stability on
temperature due to large vertical temperature variations on ice shelves.
In this work, we explore the transition from basal crevasses to full
thickness fractures considering the vertical temperature structure.
Nye’s Zero-Stress approximation violates Newton’s second law. By
upholding horizontal force balance, it has been shown analytically that
the threshold stress for rift initiation is that of a freely- floating
unconfined ice tongue. We generalize the force balance argument to show
that while temperature structure influences crack depths, the threshold
rifting stress is insensitive to temperature. In the classical Nye’s
theory, basal crevasses would develop into rifts at a stress twice of
that in our Nye’s theory adhering to horizontal force balance.
Erinnerung, Wertschätzung und das Recht zu vererben
Authors: Schmidt am Busch Hans-Christoph
Published: November 2023

Für die zeitgenössische Philosophie ist das Vererben ein Vermögenstransfer, der unter Gesichtspunkten sozialer Gerechtigkeit zu behandeln ist. Diese Untersuchungsperspektive ist angesichts der massiven Verteilungseffekte, die das Vererben zeitigt, ohne Frage sehr wichtig. Allerdings lässt sie einen Punkt unberücksichtigt: Das testamentarische Vererben kann wichtige Beiträge dazu leisten, dass wir Verstorbene, denen wir zu Lebzeiten nahestanden, in Erinnerung behalten und wertschätzen. Hierbei ist der monetäre Wert der vererbten Güter nicht entscheidend. Wie ich in meinem Aufsatz darlege, lässt sich mit diesem Befund erklären, warum die (von einer wachsenden Zahl von Gerechtigkeitstheoretikerinnen und -theoretikern geforderte) Abschaffung des Rechts zu vererben nicht nur von Vorteil sein würde, sondern auch mit ethischen Kosten verbunden wäre. Ein adäquater philosophischer Diskurs hätte diesen Befund (mit dem sich neoliberale oder rechtslibertaristische erbrechtliche Positionen nicht rechtfertigen lassen) angemessen zu berücksichtigen.
Einleitung: Gedankenexperimente in der praktischen Philosophie
Authors: Paulo Norbert
Published: November 2023

Die Philosophie ist eine merkwürdige Disziplin. Sie hat keinen klar bestimmten Gegenstandsbereich und keine einheitliche Methodik. Es gibt aber eine philosophische Methode, die in fast allen Epochen und in fast allen Bereichen der Philosophie intensiv genutzt wurde und weiter genutzt wird: das Gedankenexperiment. Was genau Gedankenexperimente sind, wie sie funktionieren und welchen wissenschaftlichen Wert sie haben, wird in der Philosophie seit den 1990er Jahren intensiv diskutiert. Diese Diskussion ist jedoch stark auf Gedankenexperimente in den Naturwissenschaften und in der theoretischen Philosophie fokussiert, obwohl sie auch in der praktischen Philosophie allgegenwärtig sind. Diesem Phänomen ist der Schwerpunkt „Gedankenexperimente in der praktischen Philosophie“ gewidmet. Diese Einleitung stellt die einzelnen Beiträge des Schwerpunkts vor und diskutiert deren jeweiligen Kontext.
The Effect Of Polymer Concentration On Coaxial Electrospinning Of Pvp/Pcl Core-Sheath Nanofibers
Authors: Nergis Fatma Banu , Aral Yılmaz Nebahat , Pala Avcı Nursema
Published: November 2023

Core-sheath nanofibers are being developed with coaxial electrospinning for use in drug release studies. In this study, nanofiber structures were developed as hydrophobic PCL in the sheath and hydrophilic PVP in the core. The effect of polymer concentrations on fiber structure and water contact angle was observed by forming two different test groups. In the first group, fiber diameters were observed to decrease depending on viscosity as the polymer concentration decreased from 10% PCL / 10% PVP to 6% PCL / 6% PVP. It was also observed that the contact angle decreased from 104.3° to 57.61° as the concentration decreased. In the second group, the shell polymer ratio was kept constant as 10% wt PCL, while the core polymer ratio was decreased to 10 %, 8% and 6%. It was observed that the core polymer in the structure became hydrophilic as its viscosity decreased. Compared to the first group, the decrease in the contact angles of the surfaces was less since the shell polymer ratio was kept constant. Contact angles decreased from 104.3° to 96.29°.

Published: November 2023

In the present research, the hybrid laser arc welding (HLAW) process has been applied to join 8 mm thick structural S355J2N steel under 1G configuration. Welding tests were performed at the Laser Welding Advanced Center available at the University of Cadiz, Spain. Different experimental welding parameters were fitted to obtain sound butt welds. The welds were subjected to different quality control tests, including visual inspection, metallographic characterization, microhardness measurements, and tensile and fatigue tests. The HLAW tests were performed at higher welding rates in 1G configuration than previously reported for 8 mm thick steels. Complete penetration was achieved in all welds, presenting suitable geometries without defects such as cracks, root humps, or porosities. Microhardness values measured at different welding zones were always below 350 HV. All welds broke at the base metal in the tensile tests. The present contribution reports novel fatigue results for these butt hybrid welds. The samples welded at the highest welding rate (2.5 m/min) were the ones providing the best fatigue response, due to the lower heat input applied under this condition.

Published: November 2023

Infection of the lower lip can manifest differently. The likelihood of such prompt life-threatening septic complications, as thrombophlebitis, pneumonia, pleurisy, etc, may be underestimated due to the small size of the local inflammation of the lip. We present a 21-year-old Caucasian female with a Staphylococcus epidermidis infection of the lower lip (furuncle) complicated by lip abscess, suppurative cheilitis glandularis, lip necrosis, septic bilateral multilobar necrotizing (destructive) pneumonia, pleurisy (pleuritis), and pulmonary insufficiency of the first degree (type I). Clinical photos of the report demonstrate all stages of the course of inflammation and treatment of the severe lower lip infection from the moment of admission. Preoperative condition, the period of formation and demarcation of necrosis, cleaning of the wound from purulent content, demonstration of fibrinous exudate (also known as fibrinous plaques), the appearance of granulations, and visualization of lip scars as of the day of discharge from the hospital (day 26) are presented. The article also includes a chest X-ray at the time of admission, on the second day, and on the seventh day of hospital stay. The report is enriched as well by three-dimensional multi-slice computed tomography (3D MSCT) images on the eighth, eighteenth, and fortieth days from the moment of admission to our hospital. 3D MSCT of the lungs is showing the areas of pulmonary tissue necrosis and the healing phase. The article contains two videos (cine images) with a duration of 21 seconds and 2 minutes 11 seconds, which demonstrate chest MSCT on the hospital day 8 and 18. The patient was discharged on the 27th day of admission. According to our English-language literature search, it's a first ever reported case of the lower lip furuncle which led such a unique combination of severe local and septic complications documented at all stages of treatment from both aspects clinical and radiological. An update of the classification of uncomplicated and complicated forms of development of furuncles (i.e., boils) and carbuncles is done and presented. More than 37 literary sources were analyzed, and their key aspects complemented our report. Articles with necrotizing fasciitis of the lips were also analyzed.

The aim of the study is to investigate effects of wetting-drying processes on bleached kraft paper properties. According to results; it has been realized that continuously wetting-drying of paper samples supplied from three different brand (A, B, and C types) effect on both physical and strength properties. However, initial stages (up to 5th cycling stages) have dramatic effects resulting in a high degree of modification, considering the fact that each following stage is moderate trend on physical properties. Contrary to breaking length and burst index that have a reducing trend as wetting-drying in progress, the tear index changed in both directions (increases or decreases). However, breaking length of samples were found to be reduced range of 11.4% to 67.8%. Nevertheless, the lowest breaking length was observed B type of papers with 1.79 km at 8th cycling stage. The lowest tear index of 2.64 mN.m2/gr was found at 5th cycling stage for C type papers while the highest tear index of 5.62 mN.m2/gr was found at 6th cycling stage for B type papers. It is clearly realized that the paper network structure are damaged and bonding potentials reduced during the wetting-drying process.

Published: November 2023

Kwas acetylosalicylowy jest najczęściej stosowanym lekiem przeciwpłytkowym. Odgrywa on kluczową rolę w leczeniu incydentów sercowo-naczyniowych, tj.: ostrych zespołów wieńcowych, przewlekłych zespołów wieńcowych, udaru mózgu, chorób tętnic obwodowych, i zapobieganiu im, a także w prewencji pierwotnej u pacjentów z cukrzycą i co najmniej wysokim ryzykiem. W leczeniu przewlekłym kwas acetylosalicylowy stosowany jest zwykle w tzw. niskiej dawce – 75–100 mg, a na dobór odpowiedniej dawki może mieć wpływ indywidualny profil pacjenta uwzględniający np. jego wysoką masę ciała, obecność cukrzycy oraz ryzyko zdarzeń niedokrwiennych i krwotocznych.

Istotą otyłości jest zwiększenie ilości żółtej tkanki tłuszczowej zbudowanej z adipocytów wypełnionych triacyloglicerolami. Przed rozpoczęciem leczenia ważne jest określenie obecności elementów zespołu metabolicznego i rozróżnienie od insulinooporności. Poza dietą, aktywnością fizyczną i ewentualnymi operacjami bariatrycznymi (omówionymi w pierwszej części artykułu) II linię leczenia stanowi farmakoterapia. Niektóre leki stosowane w innych wskazaniach również mogą się przyczynić do redukcji masy ciała – leki działające ośrodkowo i leki wykorzystywane w leczeniu cukrzycy. W celu uzyskania satysfakcjonujących wyników leczenia istotne są zrozumienie mechanizmów prowadzących do otyłości oraz znajomość metod walki z tą chorobą.

Glicyna – aminokwas endogenny o właściwościach plejotropowych
Authors: Rudnicka Magdalena
Published: November 2023

Glicyna jest aminokwasem endogennym zaangażowanym w wiele procesów fizjologicznych. Badania wykazały jej działanie przeciwzapalne, immunomodulujące i cytoprotekcyjne, co próbuje się wykorzystywać w praktyce klinicznej. Mechanizm działania nie został dokładnie poznany, ale wiele efektów glicyny wynika z hamowania procesów zależnych od jonów wapnia. Suplementacja tym aminokwasem może się okazać korzystna w przebiegu takich chorób, jak: zespół metaboliczny, nieswoiste zapalenie jelit czy mukowiscydoza. Dołączenie glicyny do kwasu acetylosalicylowego podawanego doustnie w ramach terapii przeciwpłytkowej znacząco poprawia tolerancję preparatu. Efekt plejotropowy, który wywiera na organizm ludzki, może w przyszłości przyczynić się do szerszego wykorzystania glicyny w lecznictwie.
Adaptando a Diana de Belflor: las aventuras soviéticas de El perro del hortelano
Authors: Ryjik Veronika
Published: November 2023

Antes de la famosa adaptación cinematográfica de El perro del hortelano por Pilar Miro, la obra maestra de Lope de Vega había sido llevada con éxito a la pantalla chica en la Rusia soviética. La comedia musical de 1977 del director petersburgués Yan Frid Sobaka na Sene (El perro del hortelano), si bien casi desconocida en Occidente, es considerada un clásico del cine soviético. Este artículo explora las razones detrás de la extraordinaria popularidad de este telefilme en relación con el canon de representación lopesco ruso, así como las condiciones socioculturales específicas de la época del estancamiento. Se argumenta que, al priorizar el tema de las relaciones de género sobre el conflicto de honor, Sobaka na sene logró inscribir nuevos significados culturales en la historia de la condesa de Belflor y su secretario y, por tanto, acercar la obra de Lope a los espectadores soviéticos de finales de los años setenta.

Manipulating matter with a snap of your fingers
Authors: van Ravensteijn Bas G.P. , Magana Jose R. , Voets Ilja K.
Published: November 2023

Being able to manipulate matter has been a long-standing goal in material science. Would it not be amazing if we could control matter on the grand scale that Thanos does when in possession of the Infinity Stones in Avengers: Infinity War? In this paper, we evaluate how far mankind has come in the pursuit of Thanos-like matter manipulation powers. As the properties of everyday objects are directly linked to the spatial organization of the elementary building blocks on the micro- or even nano-scale, control on these length scales is crucial. In this respect, the use of colloids is a promising strategy. Colloids are characterized by dimensions in between those of atoms and macroscopic objects such as a chemistry textbook and your smartphone. Although colloidal particles are small enough to display behaviour reminiscent of that of atoms and molecules, they are big enough for scientists to manipulate them on the single-particle level. By playing with the shape and chemistry of these colloids, materials that are sensitive to external triggers, such as light or temperature, can be created. By controlling the trigger, the colloidal matter can be manipulated, formed, or destroyed. Clearly, at the microscale, we can compete with Thanos, even without the Infinity Stones.

Streszczenie

Ziarenkowce z rodzaju Enterococcus spp. są składnikiem mikrobioty ludzi i zwierząt oraz powszechnie występują w środowisku naturalnym. Należą do patogenów warunkowo chorobotwórczych, mogących wywoływać zakażenia o różnej lokalizacji. Bakterie te rzadko wywołują zakażenia pozaszpitalne. Mimo, że do niedawna były uważane za drobnoustroje o niskim potencjale chorobotwórczym, stały się jednym z istotnych patogenów szpitalnych. Ich powszechne występowanie i zdolność do przeżycia w środowisku szpitalnym przyczyniają się do notowanej od kilku lat i nadal wzrastającej częstości ich izolacji, również z zakażeń inwazyjnych. Gatunki najczęściej izolowane z przypadków zakażeń to E. faecalis i E. faecium, stwarzające problemy terapeutyczne w związku z ich narastającą wielolekoopornością. Z powodu rosnącego znaczenia klinicznego, mechanizmów naturalnej i nabytej oporności na antybiotyki oraz potencjalnych czynników wirulencji, ziarenkowce z rodzaju Enterococcus stały się przedmiotem wielu badań. Celem pracy jest przedstawienie aktualnej wiedzy dotyczącej najistotniejszych czynników wirulencji mogących występować u bakterii z rodzaju Enterococcus, do których należą – antygen wydzielniczy SagA, białko EfaA, białko powierzchniowe Esp, białko wiążące kolagen Ace, cytolizyna, hialuronidaza, hemaglutynina, lipaza, proteaza serynowa, substancja agregująca, zewnątrzkomórkowe nadtlenki oraz żelatynaza.
Blåst? Från kulturindustriell manipulation till entreprenöriellt lärande

The aim of this article is to highlight and critically discuss three theoretical fields which have paid close attention to the relationship between culture and the market economy: the critical theory of Adorno and Horkheimer, cultural studies, and theories of entrepreneurship education. In all these fields there are strong notions about how people actually use culture and, sometimes, also an interest in its implications for learning. I will pay special attention to whether the theories construct the consumer of culture by way of dichotomies and value hierarchies, in order to make a plea for a more nuanced and anti-dualistic approach to the question of the uses of culture and its potentials for learning.

Contributing with a community-based research strategy is one way that empowered people can express their concern about national concerns where crime statistics show that corruption, including grant fraud, has increased from 2004 to 2022 and that a solution to eliminate it is therefore being examined. The community must be involved in the prevention and elimination of corruption offenses; it cannot be left to components of the integrated criminal justice system alone. Therefore, the empower thinks that by engaging in this mentoring activity, the central village government would better comprehend and be able to prevent the crime of satisfaction.

Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menunjukkan bagaimana pencegahan korupsi dimulai dari komponen terkecil yaitu Pemerintah Desa Pusar. Berkontribusi dengan strategi penelitian berbasis komunitas adalah salah satu cara yang dapat dilakukan oleh orang-orang yang diberdayakan untuk mengungkapkan keprihatinan mereka tentang keprihatinan nasional dimana statistik kejahatan menunjukkan bahwa korupsi, termasuk penipuan hibah, telah meningkat dari tahun 2004 hingga 2022 dan oleh karena itu solusi untuk menghilangkannya sedang diperiksa. Masyarakat harus dilibatkan dalam pencegahan dan pemberantasan tindak pidana korupsi; tidak dapat diserahkan kepada komponen sistem peradilan pidana terpadu saja. Oleh karena itu, Pemberdaya berpendapat bahwa dengan mengikuti kegiatan pendampingan ini, pemerintah pusat desa akan lebih memahami dan mampu mencegah terjadinya kejahatan untuk memenuhi kepuasan hati itu.
