Against Being For
Authors: Brown James
Published: November 2023

Expressivism is the view that normative claims express nondescriptive, practical attitudes. It is widely assumed that this involves denying that normative claims express beliefs, except in a minimal or deflationary sense. However, this assumption is increasingly being called into question. Instead, it is argued, expressivists can and should provide a robust, nondescriptive theory of belief in general which can explain the difference between ordinary descriptive beliefs and nondescriptive normative beliefs. This paper examines one such an attempt due to Mark Schroeder who provides a theory of belief as being for. I argue that the theory fails to deliver on its primary aim: to distinguish between descriptive and nondescriptive beliefs. Accordingly, I conclude that the theory should be rejected as it stands.

Application of deep oscillation therapy in the treatment of peripheral arterial diseases
Authors: Trybulski R. , Biolik G. , Kuczmik W. , Ivasyk N. , Tyravska O.
Published: November 2023

Intermittent claudication is a common symptom of peripheral arterial disease, affecting up to 50% of patients over the age of 50, which is characterized by pain, discomfort, and cramping in the leg muscles during physical activity. Intermittent claudication is a common symptom of lower extremity arterial disease (LEAD), which significantly impacts patients’ quality of life and drives healthcare costs. Current treatments for intermittent claudication are often inadequate, leading to a need for more effective treatments. Developing new treatments is critical to improve outcomes for patients and address the public health implications of LEAD. This study’s aim was to present the impact of comprehensive physiotherapy, conducted independently, with the supervision of a physiotherapist, for 14 weeks, on a patient with intermittent claudication caused by peripheral arterial disease. The therapy included bicycle training in a form of physical therapy at home, combined with deep oscillation therapy. Deep oscillation therapy involved the use of an electrostatic field with a frequency of 5 to 250 Hz. The field was applied following the lymphatic drainage methodology. In the discussed case, a statistically significant and favourable increase in the measured variables was observed, such as the increase of bone-brachial index from 0.65 to 0.8, the increase of tissue perfusion, measured by laser Doppler flowmetry, from 12.3% to 61%, depending on the measurement site, and the increase in pain-free walking distance by 451%. TcPO2 measurement in the affected leg increased from 31 to 48 mmHg. The use of physical therapy at home combined with deep oscillation showed improvements in pain-free walking distance, Ankle Brachial Index, and other measures in patients with peripheral arterial disease. Deep oscillation therapy demonstrated potential analgesic effects but also raised concerns about possible nerve damage. The study indicated that physical therapy at home might serve as an alternative to supervised exercise therapy, but it had limitations like a small sample size and lack of direct comparisons.
Struggling with the past and the experience of war trauma in Henryk Truskowski’s recollections
Authors: Maciąg-Lipińska Anna
Published: November 2023

The aim of this article is to demonstrate how the experience of suffering and trauma can be presented in biographical narratives. This topic, although increasingly present in literature and the media, often remains discussed in a cursory manner: in order to comprehend trauma and its consequences, one needs to consider the sum of an individual’s experience, that is, their entire life. This article examines such a comprehensive biographical account of Henryk Truskowski, recorded on 23 May 2017 in Olsztyn by Anna Maciąg as part of the project Remembering the trauma of the Second War in the spoken accounts of the inhabitants of Warmia and Mazury.

Authors: Amnouychokanant Virawan
Published: November 2023

Creativity is one of the most marketable skills in the digital age. The main purpose of this study is to explore and enhance the creativity of undergraduate students through knowledge management using storytelling with infographics. In this study, an experiment was conducted with 40 third- and fourth-year students from various majors of the Faculty of Arts at Silpakorn University. All participants had enrolled in the Multimedia Design and Production course. A one-group quasi-experiment with a pretest and posttest design was used. Several instruments were employed, including a creativity assessment form, a self-creativity assessment form, an infographic assessment form, and an infographic design attitudes questionnaire. Initially, participants were asked to complete the self-creativity assessment form and the creativity assessment form. During the sessions, all participants were taught using storytelling with infographics. After they finished designing the infographics, the instructor assessed the students’ work using a rubric for infographic assessment. Additionally, students evaluated their own work. At the end of the course, the students were asked to retake the self-creativity assessment form and creativity assessment form. The results showed that students’ creativity scores were significantly higher in all components (e.g., originality, fluency, flexibility, and elaboration). Moreover, most students received average scores in infographic design at the advanced level. However, students were found to lack confidence and courage in expressing diverging ideas. This highlights the challenges for instructors and learning designers in researching and developing suitable and effective methods to boost students’ confidence and encourage thinking outside the box.

Published: November 2023

Based on legislation passed in 2021, we undertook a first-in-the-nation effort to survey elected and appointed officials in the state of New Jersey to collect basic demographic information. This survey ran into challenges that all surveys encounter, namely, how to reach respondents and how to get them to then complete the survey—especially with an elite population. An initial recruitment effort using official, and publicly available, email addresses yielded a low response rate, requiring us to revise our recruitment strategy. We settled on directly calling the offices of the New Jersey Assembly and Senate members to enlist the support for their Chiefs of Staff and legislative aides to assist us in getting the survey completed. Directly contacting the offices in this way more than doubled the response rates compared to email. Researchers should be mindful of the benefit of this recruitment mode in future efforts to survey legislators and be attentive to the additional costs and time associated with it.

Published: November 2023

A toxic principle was found in the culture filtrate of Piricularia oryzae Cav. the rice blast pathogen, when grown in Czapek-Dox liquid medium. The toxin temporarily inhibited the germination of blast susceptible varieties of rice. It also inhibited plumule elongation in blast susceptible rice varieties, but in blast resistant varieties there was no significant inhibition. The toxin did not affect seeds of Sorghum vulgare, Eleusine coracana, Pennisetum typhoides and Setaria italica. The possibility of utilising the toxin for a preliminary screening of rice varieties for resistance to the blast diseases is indicated.

A Review of Investigations on the Breeding of the Sweet Potato, Ipomoea batatus Lamk (Part II)
Authors:   Reader in Horticulture Agricultural College and Reserch Institute, Coimbatore  641 003, V.N MADHAVA RAO
Published: November 2023

The sweet potato has been grown exclusively by vegetative means. This continuous asexual propagation appears to have greatly contributed towards the persistence of any type of sterility that might have existed in the original seedling or of any type of sterility which might have developed later. Asexual propagation is believed to allow the accumulation of recessive gene mutations which may be more often detrimental to sexual processes. If the original mutation had a tendency towards sexual incompatibility clonal multiplication seems to extend the incompatibility part to the individual and the entire variety.

Published: November 2023

A amiloidose é caracterizada pelo depósito anormal de fibrilas de amiloide em diferentes tecidos, com predominância de duas derivações de fenótipo cardíaco: imunoglobulina de cadeia leve (AL) e transtirretina (TTR). A amiloidose (A) por TTR se apresenta como duas formas: hereditária (h) e selvagem (w). A farmacoterapia compreende medicamentos de suporte para insuficiência cardíaca e o tratamento específico visa a redução da amiloido-gênese na forma ATTR. O diagnóstico tardio, o desenvolvimento da doença e a limitação terapêutica tornam-se cruciais para a qualidade de vida do paciente, sendo necessárias abordagens multidisciplinares, como o acompanhamento farmacoterapêutico. Trata-se de uma revisão de literatura realizada pelo levantamento de artigos científicos sobre terapias promissoras para o tratamento da ATTR e o papel do farmacêutico no acompanhamento destes pacientes. Do total de 38 artigos, 13 foram selecionados após leitura do título e do resumo. Cinco artigos relataram o uso de estabilizadores seletivos de transtirretina, seguido dos silenciadores do RNA da transtirretina (n=4), terapias gênicas (n=3) e inibi-dor do oligonucleotideo antisense (n=1). Tendo em vista que que vários ensaios clínicos continuam em andamento e que a maioria dos pacientes são tratados com a finalidade de melhorar a sintomatologia, o farmacêutico clínico pode trazer benefícios ao tratamento por intermédio de atividades como: avaliação da prescrição de medicamentos, identificação de barreiras interferentes na adesão terapêutica, monitoramento de parâmetros de segurança e educação em saúde. Considerando a inexistência de estudos do farmacêutico clínico na AC, salienta-se a importância de investimentos em novos estudos para fomentar a inclusão deste profissional no acompanhamento desses pacientes
Effect of noninvasive respiratory support on interstitial lung disease with acute respiratory failure: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Authors: Sanguanwong Natthawan , Jantarangsi Nattawat , Ngeyvijit Jinjuta , Owattanapanich Natthida , Phoophiboon Vorakamol
Published: November 2023

Background

Primary studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of noninvasive respiratory supports, including noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) and high flow nasal cannula (HFNC), for improving oxygenation and ventilation in patients with interstitial lung diseases (ILDs) and acute respiratory failure (ARF). These studies have not been synthesized and are not included in current practice guidelines. This systematic review with meta-analysis synthesizes studies that compared the effectiveness of NIPPV, HFNC and conventional oxygen therapy (COT) for improving oxygenation and ventilation in ILD patients with ARF.

Methods

MEDLINE, EMBASE and the Cochrane Library searches were conducted from inception to August 2023. An additional search of relevant primary literature and review articles was also performed. A random effects model was used to estimate the PF ratio (ratio of arterial oxygen partial pressure to fractional inspired oxygen), PaCO2 (partial pressure of carbon dioxide), mortality, intubation rate and hospital length of stay.

Results

Ten studies were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. Noninvasive respiratory supports demonstrated a significant improvement in PF ratio compared to conventional oxygen therapy (COT); the mean difference was 55.92 (95% CI [18.85-92.99]; p=0.003). Compared to HFNC, there was a significant increase in PF ratio in NIPPV (mean difference 0.45; 95% CI [0.12–0.79]; p=0.008). There were no mortality and intubation rate benefits when comparing NIPPV and HFNC; the mean difference was 1.1; 95% CI [0.83-1.44]; p=0.51 and 1.86; 95% CI [0.42-8.33]; p=0.42, respectively. In addition, there was a significant decrease in hospital length of stay in HFNC compared to NIPPV (mean difference 9.27; 95% Cl [1.45 – 17.1]; p=0.02).

Conclusions

Noninvasive respiratory supports might be an alternative modality in ILDs with ARF. NIPPV demonstrated a potential to improve the PF ratio compared to HFNC. There was no evidence to support the benefit of NIPPV or HFNC in terms of mortality and intubation rate.
Prediction of Production Capability for Subcontractors in Automotive Rubber Part Supply Chain Using Neuro-Fuzzy System
Authors: Butdee Suthep , Janmanee Pichai
Published: November 2023

The paper proposes prediction production capability for automotive rubber part supply chain subcontractors in order to remain competitive in the global market. Rubber parts are used widely in automotive, motorcycles, trucks and other types of vehicles which are mostly small sizes but huge quantities to support original equipment manufacturer (OEM) brands with specific parts. The rubber part manufacturing process is complex and uncertain with compression molding and rubber curing conditions. Therefore, good conditions can predict to obtain high production capability for customer commissioning and delivery on schedule. The Neuro-fuzzy system is adopted and developed to deal with the uncertain capability under multi-criteria decision making. The methodology development can be used in the actual situation of the rubber part manufacturing supply chain environment and can predict uncertain problems that might occur in the subcontractor factories. The prediction of the production capability of the rubber part supply chain might be more effective on the real-time monitoring control system and can be tracked location part progressive for further planning both successful or has to be rescheduled. The platform was applied to audit and test in the actual industrial supply chain in Thailand. The methodology development was originally created for the particular supply chain in rubber automotive parts that can replace the existing manual approach to obtain a more efficient process of monthly performance evaluation.
Optimizing LSM-LSF composite cathodes for enhanced solid oxide fuel cell performance: Material engineering and electrochemical insights
Authors: Ramin Babazadeh Dizaj  , Nastaran Sabahi
Published: November 2023

In response to pressing environmental concerns and the ever-increasing global energy demand, the pursuit of sustainable energy sources has garnered substantial momentum. A predominant focus of research within this domain revolves around the enhancement of solid oxide fuel cell performance, with particular attention directed toward the intricate oxygen reduction reaction transpiring at the cathode electrode. The present investigation embarks upon the exploration of a composite material comprising La1-xSrxMnO3-δ (LSM) and La1-xSrxFeO3-δ (LSF) as prospective cathode materials. However, the achievement of optimal composite cathodes necessitates the application of advanced materials engineering strategies. The principal aim of this comprehensive study is the development of high-performance composite cathodes, achieved through the deposition of thin film counterparts onto scandium-stabilized zirconia (ScSZ) electrolyte substrate employing the precision sputtering technique. The ensuing findings unequivocally unveil the remarkable performance exhibited by this innovative composite cathode configuration, notably manifesting its excellence at an operating temperature as modest as 780 °C. These promising outcomes imbue optimism regarding the prospective utilization of this composite material in advanced energy conversion applications, marking a significant advancement toward the realization of sustainable and efficient energy systems.
Application of modified first order shear deformation theory to vibration analysis of SSSS and CCSS thick anisotropic rectangular plates

Published: November 2023

This research presents a vibration analysis of a thick anisotropic rectangular plate using modified first shear deformation theory. Modified first shear deformation theory, which is not built upon the classical plate theory, was used to develop the kinematic equations and constitutive relations of a deformed section of thick anisotropic rectangular plate from which the generalized stress equations were determined. Using the assumptions of the theory, the strain energy and external work equations were formulated, and by employing the principles of total minimum potential energy, the total potential energy functional of a thick anisotropic plate was developed. Minimization of the total potential energy functional with respect to the deflection function (w) and with respect to the shear rotations (Φx) and (Φy) respectively, resulted in the governing differential equation and the two compatibility equations of the plate. The displacement functions that satisfy the governing and compatibility equations were obtained by solving the governing and compatibility equations. From the general displacement function, the peculiar deflection equations (shape functions) were obtained for the boundary conditions considered, which are simply supported on its four edges (SSSS), clamped on two adjacent edges, and simply supported on the other two (CCSS). Using the displacement equation and the equation for rotation in the x-direction (Φx) and equation for rotation in y-direction (Φy) the direct governing and two direct compatibility equations were obtained, from which coefficients that enable the formula for calculating fundamental natural frequencies to be obtained. For the boundary condition analyzed in this work, the stiffness coefficients (kR, kQ, kRQ, kq, kRRQ , kRQQ , kNR, kNQ, kNRQ and kλ ) were computed and used in determining the fundamental natural frequency parameter values at various span to depth ratios (5,10,20, 25 and 100), aspect ratios (1 to 2 at the increment of 0.1) and angle of fibre orientation (0o, 15o, 45o). The solutions of this study were compared with those from previous researchers. The fundamental natural frequency parameter values obtained in this study were compared with the work of Reddy (1984) for 0o angle of fibre orientation at span to depth ratios of 5,10, 20, 25, 50 and 100 at an aspect ratio of 1. The percentage difference values were 6.073%, 3.197%, 1.132%, 0.788%, 0.255%, and 0.112%, respectively.

It also influenced school education, and the need to reflect the changes of the new era emerged in education. School music education has also changed a lot compared to the past, but music textbooks have not reflected various changes. The purpose of this study is to explore the direction of the development of music textbooks according to the 2022 revised music curriculum in the new normal era. To this end, first, the meaning of the new normal was grasped and implications for music education were derived. Second, the characteristics of the new normal era reflected in the 2022 revised curriculum were analyzed. Third, the direction of music textbook development was explored for music education in the new normal era. As a result of the study, the implications of the new normal for music education were as follows: strengthening teacher competency, support for students, teaching and learning methods using digital technology, and the necessity of discussion to harmonize with the nature of music subjects. In addition, the characteristics of the new normal era were generally reflected in the curriculum amid the changed social background and needs. Music textbooks in the new normal era should be developed as textbooks for customized learning for learners, textbooks that embrace various aspects of music in the present and future, textbooks that seek to cultivate digital basic knowledge, and textbooks that encompass collaborative music activities.

Published: November 2023

This study aimed to examine the relationship of basic psychological need satisfaction and frustration with psychological burnout and job engagement of teachers. In that comprehensive and in-depth understanding of teachers’ basic psychological needs satisfaction and frustration should be a primary step, bifactor exploratory structural equation modeling (B-ESEM) was applied to explore the factor structure of needs satisfaction and frustration. B-ESEM represents one global factor of need fulfillment and six specific factors as the combination of satisfaction and frustration with autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Using a sample of 397 elementary and secondary school teachers, the results of B-ESEM showed that teachers’ need satisfaction and frustration converged to need unfulfillment rather than need fulfillment, and competence satisfaction and frustration was crucial for their global levels of basic psychological need unfulfillment. The general factor of need unfulfillment significantly explained psychological burnout and job engagement. Even after general need unfulfillment was taken into account, autonomy frustration and competence frustration maintained unique effects of increasing psychological burnout. Satisfaction of autonomy, competence, and relatedness as well as autonomy frustration had unique effects of increasing job engagement. This suggests the establish the conditions that can promote competence satisfaction and block competence frustration to reduce teachers’ burnout and to enhance their job engagement.
La soberanía de las mujeres sobre su cuerpo en la sentencia C-355 de 200
Authors: Arango Diana Catalina
Published: November 2023

En este texto abordaremos las discusiones jurídicas y políticas que se dieron entre sectores de la sociedad colombiana que abrieron un espacio de posibilidades para la transformación legal a través del surgimiento de la sentencia C-355 de 2006 que despenalizó parcialmente el aborto. Campos como el de la medicina, el feminismo, la religión y la política produjeron una serie de debates que habilitaban o negaban una apertura ante la legalización del aborto. No se trató de un proceso lineal, se trató de un camino de avances y retrocesos en una lucha permanente por la reivindicación de los derechos de las mujeres, la despenalización del aborto y la exigencia por el cumplimiento de la ley. Las posturas religiosas y su intervención en la política fueron desafiadas por los cuestionamientos científicos y jurídicos y por las luchas del movimiento feminista, perforando la hegemonía de las posturas clericales en contra del aborto y dando paso al discurso de los derechos de las mujeres y la salud pública materializados en la ley.
