A woman’s place: constructing women within true crime narratives
Authors: Franks Rachel
Published: August 2021

Writers do not have to position the female body as a contested space: simultaneously

conceived of as a commodity, honoured as a site of self-expression, and visualised as a

vehicle for reproduction. This competition of ownership facilitates the commandeering

of the female body for a variety of purposes such as the pursuit of financial or political

gain. In this way, women who are central to true crime cases – as victims or as

perpetrators – can be objectified by writers for the popular press in the rush to tell a story

and, in some instances, marginalised, even as their stories are re-imagined. These ideas

are explored through two cases that unfolded in Sydney, Australia, in the late-nineteenth

century – the gang rape of Mary Jane Hicks and two murders ostensibly committed by

Louisa Collins. A brief examination of the contemporary coverage of these cases unpacks

how the bodies of both women were conscripted by writers for other purposes – first, to

sell papers, and second, to argue for the abolition of the death penalty. This article then

looks at the re-telling of these events in Frank C. Johnson’s Famous Detective Stories,

which allowed mid-twentieth century true crime writers to re-ignite debates around

publishing and punishment found in the original reportage. Almost 130 years after the

first of these crimes took place, this article contends offering a feminist framework to

review these, and similar, cases demonstrate circulation figures and discussions around

the ethics of punishment are not dependent upon the appropriation of the female body.
‘Conflict cinema’ and hostile space in Northern Ireland and Palestine
Authors: Harrington Louise
Published: August 2021

This article is concerned with narratives of ethno-religious conflict depicted in a genre I

term ‘conflict cinema’. The two films under discussion, ’71 and Paradise Now, are

largely set, respectively, in the cities of Belfast in Northern Ireland and Nablus in

Palestine and represent the divisions and violent tension between enemy factions there.

The intersection of the landscape of the conflicts and the bodies of the male protagonists

who must negotiate them emphasizes the centrality of physically being ‘in place’ or ’out

of place’ to ‘conflict cinema’. The soldier/colonizer Gary Hook in ’71 and the freedom

fighters/terrorists Said and Khaled in Paradise Now travel through the enduring

battlegrounds of their divided and politically unstable societies. Against the backdrop of

ethno-religious conflict, both films focus on the ideal militant body that must be a

machine or an automaton. I argue that through the screenwriters’ and filmmakers’

depiction of these bodies’ negotiations of conflict space, or in other words, the interface

between the body and the unstable, urban conflict zone, ‘conflict cinema’ upsets

overdetermined notions of the male militant body, thus manifesting the paradox of the

dehumanised body that is also innately human.
Reverberation and the parodic: an invitation to the spaces of sound
Authors: Scicluna Josephine
Published: August 2021

In The Politics of Aesthetics Jacques Rancière speaks of artistic practices ’as ways of

“doing and making” that intervene in the general distribution of ways of doing and

making’ (2013: 8). ‘Reverberation’ in the various dimensions explored by this paper is

the compelling and parodic force, which signals the transformative potential of the

spaces of music, word and sound collaborations. This paper will present the mixed

impulse of parody as repetition with difference in Deleuze’s sense, or ironic ‘transcontextualisation’ (Hutcheon 2000: 32), contextualised by Foucault’s heterotopic

thought, Steve Reich’s minimalist music, and Brian Eno’s recognition of ambient sound

in 1975 (Howard 2004: 91). Also explored is Hutcheon’s investigation of the etymology

of parody as ‘counter-song’, which suggests intimacy and accord. The latter

understanding of parody will be of particular importance in a discussion of New Yorkbased band, The National.
Dissident Laughter: Historiographic metafiction as parodic intervention in Benang and That Deadman Dance
Authors: Johnson A. Frances
Published: August 2021

Benang: From the Heart and That Deadman Dance are both seminal examples of postcolonial historical novels by Kim Scott that consider ‘how much speaking’ and ‘what sort of speaking’ can occur in relation to portrayals of Indigenous subjects and traumatic histories of

dispossession. Both Scott’s novels differently recruit a range of parodic narrative techniques to

critique the monologistic language of colonialism. This essay examines how Scott recruits

historiographic metafiction in Benang: From the Heart and That Deadman Dance to generate new metaphors of colonial power relations within the novel as heteroglossic text.
Factores que inciden en la erosión hídrica
Authors: Alvarado García Virginia
Published: August 2021

La erosión es el resultado de la interacción de diversos factores que varían espaciotemporalmente. Su estudio debe estar enfocado en la comprensión de los elementos que inciden en dicho proceso, para así, lograr un abordaje adecuado en el manejo y conservación del suelo. Esta revisión pretende analizar los principales factores que condicionan la erosión hídrica del suelo y la influencia de cada uno de ellos; además de presentar algunas técnicas de conservación de suelos. Entre los más importantes se pueden citar, la precipitación, la cobertura vegetal, la topografía, las características edáficas y los factores antrópicos. La pérdida de este recurso se da más comúnmente en sitios sin cobertura vegetal, con un uso de suelo inadecuado, zonas expuestas a intensas lluvias, pendientes fuertes y de largas longitudes, y falta o ausencia de prácticas preventivas. El uso de tecnologías como los abonos orgánicos, los cultivos de cobertura, las barreras vivas, las cortinas rompevientos, la bioingeniería y la revegetación, son clave para una controlar el proceso erosivo y aumentar la productividad de las tierras. : Por ello, la estimación de la resistencia de los suelos a la erosión debe ser integral; dado que le proceso erosivo no depende en una sola variable, sino de la combinación de componentes que, a su vez, inciden en la magnitud de sus efectos.

Telehealth has recently been used more often in an attempt to protect practitioners and patients during the 2019 coronavirus infectious disease (COVID-19) crisis. Despite telehealth’s existence, there was no prior need to fully realize its potential. Recently, technological innovations in orthopaedic surgery have assisted in making this modality more useful. However, it is important to continually educate the medical community regarding these technologies and their interplay to improve patient care. Therefore, our purpose is to provide information on telehealth by assessing: (1) steps the hospital/system are taking to reduce COVID-19 exposure for teams and patients; (2) new technologies allowing for the optimization of patient safety; and (3) use of telehealth for postoperative follow up. We will demonstrate that telehealth and its associated strategies can be used effectively to decrease COVID-19 exposure risks for both medical staff and patients during these rapidly changing and uncertain times.
The Impact of Stock Price Crash Risk on the Cost of Capital: Empirical Study from China
Authors: Khan Muhammad Hamza , Rizwan Muhammad
Published: August 2021

This study analysed the effect of Sock Price Crash Risk (SPCR) on the cost of capital in Chinese listed firms in the Shenzhen stock exchange and the shanghai Stock Exchange. A sample of 290 firms based on the highest value of assets of each firm was used. The cost of capital consists of two factors; the cost of equity (COE) and the cost of debt (COD). The SPCR is measured by using two statistics, one is NCSKEW means the negative coefficient of skewness of the firm-specific weekly returns and the second is DUVOL that means Down to-Up Volatility used to measure the crash likelihood weekly return of firm-specific and used the Modified PEG ratio model of Eston approach to measuring the cost of equity. We used panel data to run the regression model analyses. SPCR was found to have a significantly positive relationship with the cost of equity and cost of debt. Also, the sample was divided into the State-Owned enterprise (SOEs) and Non-State-Owned enterprises (NSOEs) for comparison. The results show that the impact of SPCR on the COE and COD is stronger in SOEs than NSOEs. The regulators need to improve and strengthen the development of laws and regulations related to company information disclosure, to reduce the cost of capital of listed companies and improve the efficiency of financing the Chinese capital market. Companies need to work together to strengthen internal controls, create a good disclosure environment, and prevent the SPCR.

Comparison of Mastication Status in Ameloblastoma Patients Post-Mandibular Segmental Resection Operation with LC Type with Mandibular Reconstruction using Plate And Plate Bone Graft in RSUD Dr. Soetomo
Authors: Supriyandono Djoko , Wibowo Marjono Dwi , Susilo Dwi Hari
Published: August 2021

Background: Mandibular resection is part of the surgical operation for ameloblastoma cases, followed by mandibular reconstruction. Good masticatory status should be taken into account in determining the success of mandibular reconstruction. To assess mastication, some measuring instruments in the form of a questionnaire were created, one of which is the Tsuga questionnaire. At RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya, the most common resection performed is mandibular segmental resection with an LC type defect, where an assessment of mastication status had not been carried out in this case.
Methods: This study is an analytic study to see the mastication status of patients after mandibular resection and reconstruction with a case-control study design. This study used primary data in the form of interviews and secondary data in the form of medical records of ameloblastoma patients who had undergone mandibular resection surgery with an LC type defect and underwent mandibular reconstruction at RSUD Dr. Soetomo Surabaya.
Results: The total research subjects were 50 people, consisting of 26 men (52%) and 24 women (48%). From the results of the study, there was no statistically significant relationship between the age group and mastication status after mandibular reconstruction (p-value = 0.765) and also between gender and mastication status after mandibular reconstruction (p-value = 0.725). Meanwhile, between the type of reconstruction and mastication status, there was a statistically significant relationship (p-value = 0.011). It was also found that patients with the type of reconstruction using a plate bone graft had five times better mastication status than those who used the type of reconstruction using a plate.
Conclusion: There is a statistically significant relationship between the type of reconstruction and mastication status. Mandibular reconstruction in postoperative ameloblastoma patients with mandibular segmental resection with LC type defects using plate bone graft has a better mastication status than those using plates without bone graft.

Keywords: masticatory status, ameloblastoma, mandibular resection, mandibular reconstruction.

Introduction: Ameloblastoma is a benign epithelial neoplasm and accounts for 10% of all odontogenic tumors. It is characterized by a slow growth pattern and can grow to a very large size and cause severe facial deformities. Radical resection with K-wire reconstruction and plate bone graft is the most effective method but can cause deformity and malfunction of the patient's jaw. Mastication status is an important indicator to assess a good quality of life in ameloblastoma patients undergoing mandibular resection.
Methods: data comes from primary data in the form of interviews and secondary data in the form of medical records of ameloblastoma patients who have undergone mandibular resection surgery with LC type defects and underwent mandibular reconstruction with Kirschner Wire or Plate-Bone Graft in the Head-Neck Surgery Division at dr. Soetomo Surabaya. This study is an analytic study to see the mastication status of patients after mandibular resection and reconstruction. The research design is a Case Control Study.

Authors: Shivanandappa Nagaratna , Swamy Shalini N , Kumar S Sandeep
Published: August 2021

Endometrial carcinoma is one of the most common gynecological malignancies known to affect around 142000 women worldwide. Aberrant promoter hypermethylation of tumor suppressor genes is a common epigenetic alteration reported in cancers. In the present study we report the aberrant promoter hypermethylation of RASSF1a and p16 in 78 endometrial cancer patients.
Methods: Endometrial carcinoma samples were collected after pathological examination and DNA was extracted. The DNA was subjected to sodium bisulfite modification and then used to perform methylation specific PCR. The PCR was performed using a two step procedure of nested and methylation specific PCR. The PCR product was visualized using agarose gel electrophoresis. The results obtained were correlated with various clinicopathological parameters. Chi square test was used for statistical analysis and a p-value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Result: 60 of the 78 (76.92%) samples showed methylation for RASSF1a gene. 28 of the 78 (35.8%) samples showed methylation for p16 gene. A higher methylation frequency was observed for RASSF1a in the endometrioid and poorly differentiated histological subtypes and stage I and II of the disease.
Conclusion: Aberrant promoter hypermethylation of RASSF1a and p16 is known to play an important role in endometrial cancer initiation and progression. The methylation patterns can be used as an important molecular marker for early diagnosis and prognosis of endometrial cancer.

Keywords: Epigenetic alterations, DNA Hypermethylation, Endometrial cancer, RASSF1a, p16, Methylation-specific PCR.

Authors: Sekunmade J.O.
Published: August 2021

This paper investigates Foreign Direct Investment, Economic Freedom and Economic Growth of Nigeria between 1995 and 2018. Specifically, the data on: Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) inflows, Economic Freedom (Aggregate index) and the data on real gross domestic product (RGDP) were used during the analysis. Time-series data were tested for stationarity using the Augmented Dickey-Fuller Unit Root test method. Vector Autoregressive (VAR) estimation method was adopted to examine the effect of FDI, Economic Freedom on Economic growth. The interactive effect of FDI and Economic Freedom on Economic growth was determined using regression analysis while Granger Causality test method was adopted for determining the causality relationship among the variables. The result of the Vector Autoregressive (VAR) suggests that both FDI and Economic freedom do not have a significant effect on economic growth in Nigeria. The result of regression analysis shows that the joint coefficient of both FDI and EF is negative and not significant. The result of Granger Causality revealed that there is a uni-directional relationship between RGDP and FDI and between EF and FDI respectively. The research recommends that the federal government of Nigeria should adopt appropriate foreign trade strategies to enhance the impact of FDI on economic growth in Nigeria.

Learning about Moss: Forming Communities of Inquiry
Authors: Buck Hester
Published: August 2021

The term community, when applied to socially engaged projects, often encompasses a range of different motivations for people to come together. It rarely describes a harmonious group, but instead an ever-changing set of individuals, with different interests and reasons for taking part. Looking at the participatory design of a moss wall around the community garden at R-urban, in London, the paper will explore how different understandings of the term community came together through meetings, events and workshops, as a designed process of engagement. The site of the project, defined a community of location, made up of residents. The community garden wall was designed in response to the poor air quality within the area, collaborating with a community of concern, made up of activists and academics. The wall was tested through construction workshops, attracting volunteers interested in learning about DIY as well as air quality, building a diverse community of practice. These different communities came together to learn about the wall through experimental prototypes, as a community of enquiry. The paper will reflect on the success and failures of different engagement strategies to target specific groups, exploring unexpected moments of engagement and the challenges of apathy and misunderstanding. It will explore how these events enabled people to move between different understandings of the term community, through the engagement in design and the legacy of the objects produced. This has the potential to develop a longer-term collective concern for such a project and this community can in turn support behaviour change, informing an individual’s urban mobility.

Economic diversification has been the only solution to Nigeria’s economic challenges with the country in control of diversely untapped natural and human resources. This work has contextually x-rayed some much more considered theoretical paths of economic development through economic diversification and placed the blame for Nigeria’s economic backwardness on political will and lack of commitment to national course of political leaders. Since the diverse policy process of the government had yielded little or no sustainable results, even when the emphasis is to utilize the potentials in non-oil sectors to benefit ever-increasing population. Nigeria is relatively diversified but the positive impact of real diversification through surplus economic gains has not been achieved. A holistic approach to development was adopted in the theoretical framework used in this work that positively affects state, people and their relationship nationally and internationally. The thrust of the theory encourages free trade policy, efficient competition and democratic features to liberalize productivity through various guided legislation in line with Globalized Quality Standard. The research design was descriptive of the observed trend in the economy. It also analyses similar scholarly data collected for accuracy in exposing greatly a multi-sectoral approach in planning, dealing with interdependence using input-output matrix with reference to pre-independence and post-independence era of the national economy. This study looked at the positive intentions of some interventionist programmes and policies of the Government which were short-lived. Few years’ aggregate contribution and sectoral real GDP rate were stated. Recommendations were effectively based on keen interest in multi-sectoral diversification of an economy being the sub-structure that determines the effectiveness of super-structure.

Authors: Khanitta Ruttarattanamongkol
Published: August 2021

This work was conducted to evaluate the effect of drying methods on the nutritional values and physicochemical properties of unpeeled banana flour. Proximate, amylose content, phenolic compound, resistant starch, total dietary fibre, functional properties, pasting properties, and thermal properties of dried banana flour samples were evaluated. Three different drying methods of whole banana with the intact peel were studied including 1) hot-air unpeeled flour (HAU) (dried at 60oC for 2 h in hot-air chamber), 2) microwave-vacuum unpeeled flour (MVU) (36,000 W under vacuum -600 mmHg for 15 min in a pilot microwave-vacuum dryer), and 3) infrared unpeeled flour (IRU) (600 W for 15 min in infrared channel dryer). The HAU and MVU showed the highest yield. Drying methods did not affect the compositions of the flour but significantly affected the total dietary fibre, resistant starch, amylose content and phenolic compound of the flour. Among samples, HAU contained the highest nutritional values with outstanding functional properties, and pasting properties. The unpeeled banana flour can be utilized in various food products such as noodle, bakeries, snack or used as functional ingredients for nutritional purposes.

Authors: Le Kha M.
Published: August 2021

By-products from pangasius fillet processing are a good source to create a new value-added product such as snack. In this study, the effects of seaweed ratio, seasoning ratio, drying and frying conditions on sensory, texture, water holding capacity and moisture of product were investigated to find the best quality of the product. The results showed that seaweed-added products had a better texture as compared to seaweed non-added products. However, seaweed addition > 3% weakened the product's texture. The appropriate seaweed ratio was 1%. The spice ratio (0.2% salt : 0.3% sugar : 0.1% monosodium glutamate (MSG) : 0.1% chili powder) was most favoured. The product (size 30 × 30 mm and thickness of 2 mm) was dried at 80oC in 105 min, to the final moisture of 8.17% ± 0.04. The product was fried by shortening for 20 sec at 180oC and resulted in the highest sensory quality

Published: August 2021

This study was conducted to determine the diversity of pathogenic Vibrio species, the antimicrobial resistance profile and the presence of virulence genes linked to food-borne pathogens of Vibrio spp. isolated from shrimp samples in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. A total of 40 raw shrimp batches were collected from retails markets (supermarket and street). All 133 test strains were isolated from 40 shrimp samples. V. parahaemolyticus was the most common species (87.5%), followed by V. navarrensis (60%), V. alginolyticus (52.5%), V. cholerae non-O1 (37.5%), V. vulnificus (22.5%), and V. fluvialis (10%). Vibrio spp. isolates were susceptible to 12 antimicrobial agents. The prevalence of ampicillin resistance was highest (82.7%), followed by cotrimoxazole (18.8%) and 3rd generation cephalosporins (16.5% cefotaxime and 8.3% ceftazidime). Extended spectrum β lactamase (ESBL) activity was detected in 28.1% V. parahaemolyticus isolates. None of tdh or trh virulence genes were detected. The results of this study indicated the presentation of Vibrio species in shrimp samples purchased in Ho Chi Minh City. Therefore, our results could be of great potential for the identification of Vibrio infection in shrimp samples taken from different regions to improve food quality and safety.

Published: August 2021

Phenolic compounds are secondary metabolites mainly responsible for different pharmacological activities of the plant extracts. In this study, microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) variables were optimized for the extraction of the phenolic compounds from Chromolaena odorata (C. odorata) by using a central composite design (CCD) of response surface methodology (RSM). The optimized conditions were at 62oC for 3 min with solvent to feed ratio of 14:1 (mL/g) and ethanol concentration of 50% (v/v). The highest yield of total phenolic compounds was 75.76 mgGAE/g. Ethanol extract clearly showed antifungal activity through antifungal index. The antifungal effect Phytophthora capsici, Fusarium oxysporum and Colletotrichum siamese were 79.07%, 78.66% and 78.42%, in 0.5% of ethanol extract, respectively
Effects of dietary supplementation of β-mannanase on performance and egg quality in laying hens
Authors: Che Tung M.
Published: August 2021

The objective of the experiment was to evaluate effects of dietary supplementation of β-mannanase (Hemicell®) on productive performance, egg quality, and fecal moisture content in laying hens from 20 to 35 weeks of age. A total of 375 Isa Brown’s hens (1615.6 ± 76.4 g/bird) were randomly assigned to 5 treatments in a completely randomized design. The 5 dietary treatments included (1) basal diet with a level of 2800 kcal ME and no β-mannanase supplementation (HE, Control), (2) HE + 32 units of β-mannanase/g of feed, (3) HE + 64 units of β-mannanase/g of feed, (4) basal diet with a level of 2700 kcal ME (LE) + 32 units of β-mannanase/g of feed, and (5) LE + 64 units of β-mannanase/g of feed. Each treatment was replicated with 25 cages of 3 hens each. All diets were in meal form and contained no antibiotics. The addition of β-mannanase to HE diets did not affect the egg production of birds as compared with the control (P > 0.05). The birds fed LE diets with β-mannanase had the same egg production as those fed the control and β-mannanase-supplemented HE diets (P > 0.05). Differences in egg weight, egg quality, survival rate, and fecal moisture content were not significant among the treatments (P > 0.05). Briefly, addition of β-mannanase (32 units/g of feed) to LE diets would be beneficial for layers during the early laying period as it resulted in the same performance and egg quality as the HE diets without β-mannanase supplementation.
Effects of different extraction methods on the recovery yield of bixin from annatto seeds (Bixa orellana L.)
Authors: Hoang Chuyen V.
Published: August 2021

Bixin is a principal color component of annatto pigment which is obtained from the seed coat of Bixa orellana L., a tropical shrub. The extraction yield of bixin from annatto seeds using acetone, soybean oil and sodium hydroxide solution with different extraction conditions were investigated in this study. The extraction time, temperature, solid-liquid ratio and light exposure showed significant effects on the bixin yield. The extraction using soybean oil had the lowest bixin yield followed by the extraction using sodium hydroxide solution. The extraction using acetone resulted in the highest extraction yield (68.1%) after only 40 min. The extraction using soybean oil at 100oC led to two-fold bixin yield compared to that operated at 80oC while the mild temperature (50oC) was found to be the most suitable for the extraction using sodium hydroxide solution. The exclusion of light exposure by covering extraction beakers with aluminum foil could significantly improve the bixin extraction yield due to the reduction in bixin degradation. Therefore, the extraction using acetone avoiding light exposure is suggested for recovering bixin from annatto seeds.
