“High the Mountain, Long the River”
Authors: Chen Yuxin
Published: August 2022

In 1988, the Shanghai Animation Film Studio produced a 19-minute short film Shanshui qing 山水情, known in English as Feeling from Mountain and Water. Devoid of dialogue, the film recounts the friendship between an elderly musician and a young fisherwoman. The last of the Studio’s ink-wash animation project, Feeling from Mountain and Water transfers the visuality of traditional Chinese landscape paintings to the cinematic format. My paper focuses on this market-reform-era production and examines the little-discussed afterlife of landscape art in the medium of animation. Conjoining visual analyses, animators’ self-accounts, and existing literature on 20th-century Chinese art, I aim to resituate Feeling from Mountain and Water in the historical juncture when it was created. Specifically, I argue that instead of a forced resurrection of traditional aesthetic, the film belongs to an unbroken artistic lineage in the Chinese landscape tradition, complicates the issue of “the artist’s hand” in Chinese pictorial art, as well as reflects the ever-changing political and economic climate from the Republican era to the age of the market reforms.
State of Emergence
Authors: Jani Meenakshi
Published: August 2022

During the Sri Lankan Civil War, an entire generation grew up under a condition of violence. I analyze the violence of the Sri Lankan Civil War as a destabilizing as well as productive force, rather than only as the result of pre-existing social conflicts. I argue that the condition of violence during this war lent itself to new iterations of Tamil ethnic identity, focusing on how it created space for the renegotiation of Tamil womanhood. Inspired by Lee Ann Fuji’s conceptualization of ethnicity as “state-sponsored” and performed according to a “script” during periods of ethnic conflict, I argue that the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) created a script for Tamil identity that positioned Tamil women as emblematic of the nation. The LTTE did so by portraying Tamil women as victims in need of protection and by arguing that their liberation from patriarchal traditions represented the liberation of Tamils as a whole. I then examine how the LTTE was both an agent and a product of the condition of violence during this period, thereby facilitating both agency for and oppression of women. Finally, I discuss how Tamil women sought their own agency by at times following scripts for the performance of their identities and at times deviating from those scripts.
What Factors Facilitated the Democratization in Taiwan?
Authors: Auklend Kristoffer Andreas
Published: August 2022

This paper focuses on Taiwan’s democratization and seeks to uncover which factors have facilitated this development by specifically utilizing Huber, Rueschemeyer, and Stephens’ (1993) theoretical approach of how economic development impacts democratic transitions. Their framework is then utilized comparatively along with data provided by several peer-reviewed contributions explaining Taiwan’s democratization process. To avoid the inclusion of any other than that which has strong relevance or significant causality to the island’s democratization, the paper analyzes developments back to 1895 when Taiwan was conquered by the Imperial Japanese, which led to modernization on the island. Thereafter, historical developments are presented, specifically the Kuomintang’s (KMT) oppressive rule, socioeconomic developments with a comparison of Taiwan’s economic policy with South Korea, and how these have impacted the alliance-making in the class systems and the emergence of a literary public sphere, which fueled the Taiwang movement, finally leading to the allowance of an opposition party to be founded. Lastly, the paper looks at the extent historical geopolitical events have facilitated the democratization. The findings suggest that Taiwan has indeed been able to effectively transition from a one-party authoritarian regime to a deliberative multi-party democracy due to several factors, such as Japan causing modernization, a growth in the public’s question regarding a distinct national identity, KMT’s economic policy, a growth in the literary public sphere and its international relations.

Artist Statement: This cover is meant to reflect Asia's chaos, warmth, and ebullience. The streets packed with cars, the confluence of traditional and modern architecture — for me, these are defining characteristics of this expansive and nebulous continent. As for the butterflies, they symbolize new beginnings and migration, a metaphor for both the widespread Asian diaspora and the birth of the CJA itself.

Perspectives on NFTs from the EU and UK
Authors: Guadamuz Andres
Published: August 2022

I want to start with a bit of a disclaimer:  I have actually minted, bought, and sold a few NFTs.  But I’ve managed only to lose money.  I think I am not alone.  There is a report in Nature says that that some 75% of all NFT sales have been for under fifteen dollars.

I could spend hours talking about the common pitfalls and issues faced by EU and UK participants in the NFT market.  There are many different topics up for discussion, but I have selected just a few that I find might be different from an international perspective when compared with the experience in the United States.  You may have noticed that I’m separating the UK and European perspectives.  (Thank you, Brexit.)  There has already been much talk about what you are getting when you purchase an NFT:  The data is a smart contract.  It is code.  In other words, the NFT is not the artwork, it is just the token that represents the work.  But we have not really explored how copyright law impacts the NFT market.  So, the first question I want to explore is the rights question.

In modern years, there has been a large dealing of work toward the area of free radical chemistry. Free radicals reactive oxygen species and reactive nitrogen species are create by our body by various endogenic systems, influence to different physio chemical conditions or unhealthy states. A balance between free radicals and antioxidants is necessary for proper physiological function. If free radicals overwhelm the body's ability to modulate them, a condition known as oxidative stress ensues. Free radicals thus unfavorable alter lipids, proteins, and DNA and activate a number of human diseases. Hence application of external source of antioxidants can assist in coping this oxidative stress. Synthetic antioxidants such as butylated hydroxytoluene and butylated hydroxyanisole have recently been reported to be dangerous for human health. The present review provides a brief overview on oxidative stress mediate cellular damages and role of dietary antioxidants as functional foods in the organization of human diseases. We need to take balance diet which provide much more antioxidants to lower risks of health and run to life longer.The purpose of this review is that we want awareness related to sources of antioxidants from plants and highlight the studies of antioxidants and free radicals which provide prove for maintaining healthy aging.

Published: August 2022

Introduction: This study describes the distribution of radiation doses to investigate the planned target volume (PTV) of gynecological cancers using the RapidArc technique. The optimal treatment plan options are developed by involvement of different dosimetric parameters including Homogeneity index (HI), Conformity index (HI), Uniformity index (UI), Radical dose homogeneity index (rDHI) and Moderate dose homogeneity index (mDHI).
Method: Thirteen patients diagnosed with gynecological cancer were treated through RapidArc on DHX Varian linear accelerator with 6MV and 15MV photon beams. This therapy was carried out with linac.
Result: The calculated dosimetric parameters for planning target volume were found in the ranges; HI (1.08 to 1.20), CI (0.985 to 0.997 in RTOG), CI (1.003 to 1.005 in ICRU), UI (1.05 to 1.13), rDHI (0.57 to 0.75) and mDHI (0.88 to 0.93).
Conclusion: It has been concluded that all the calculated indices are within the range specified by radiation therapy oncology group (RTOG; 1993), International Commission on Radiation Units and Measurements (ICRU) and OLIVER; except in rare cases may be due to complex geometry, tumor volume range, and low radiation dose.This treatment can be further added to calculate other dose indices by using higher energy beams and different prescription doses for different fractions.

Published: August 2022

Obesity have negative effects on the fertility of males and females. In females the obesity can induce hormonal imbalances for example adipokines (leptin, adiponectin, resistin, visfatin, omentin, chemerin) on reproductive axis, irregularities in menstrual cycle, reduce conception rate and complications in pregnancy. The adverse effect is insulin resistance and insulin excess that is associated with PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome)-irregular periods. In males the obesity affects HPG gland that in turn disturb the endocrine regulation of reproductive function with high level of estrogen and low level of testosterone, progesterone, and SHBG (sex-hormone binding globulin). DNA damage of sperm, high scrotal temperature because of highly fatted scrotum area, low production of sperms and decreased motility of sperm are all the effects of obesity in males that cause infertility. The aim of the review article is to thoroughly cover the effect of obesity on reproductive functions, hormonal concentrations & fertility potential in females & males.

Decoding of a Gendered Marginalized Discourse in V.S. Naipaul’s A House for Mr. Biswas
Authors: Rehman Muhammad Shakil Ur , Chattha Saima Akhter , Niazi Zia Ullah Khan
Published: August 2022

Focusing on Sara Mill’s Feminist stylistics in A House for Mr. Biswas (1961) by V.S. Naipaul (1961), the article provides an alternative understanding of the novel through the lens of the undertaken framework to reveal marginalization on gender basis. The disparity of the socio- cultural roles of men and women in the novel through a particular use of language divulges gender inequality in a society. The preference of masculinity engrossed in of preferable patriarchal titles, names, generic pronouns and professions leads to a gender labeling. The disparaging portrayal of women in the fictional representation of a postcolonial work manifests that women are discriminated against. It is substantial, therefore, to problematize gender representation through the application of “toolkit” (Mills, 1995, p.2). It is also one of the significant theoretical frameworks that critiques a literary piece to unearth concealed objectives wrought in an implicit and explicit language-use. Naipaul in the selected work represents through a language use - word, phrase/sentence, discourse to demonstrate how rampant socio-cultural gender norms play a pivotal role in upholding gender inequality. Therefore, the study concludes that submissive role of women through the specific use of discourse makes the application of feminist stylistics more pertinent to highlight the stereotypical gender norms that are used to strengthen patriarchal hegemony. Hence, socio-cultural gender norms with the collusion of a specific discourse used in the novel are coded for dominance of patriarchy and segregation of women subsequently.

In this paper the technical and financial analysis was done for the extensive market survey relating to the solar energy harnessing in Karachi which is the biggest import, whole sale and retail market and follow as role model for most of other Pakistani markets. The severity of the electrical energy crises leads to the pressure on the individual user to find solutions for their long, load shedding hours. The marketing and advertisement exaggerated the Solar Photovoltaic panels as the best solutions which trigger the impulsive buying of solar modules and related accessories to produce the “free of cost” electrical energy. However, it was not proven as simple and free as it was marketed and advertised which leads to the tremendous loss of capital / investment and foreign exchange because of the major portion of solar energy related products are imported.  In this work, several markets were survey and investigated i.e. Saddar, Bolten Shareshah, Qaidabade, Gulshan and Sohrab Goth where various brands of the solar panels were investigated by means of technical, financial and environmental based in order to optimize the policies and guideline for the investment, installation,  operation and maintenance (OEM).

Published: August 2022

Las constantes fisiológicas y los diferentes cálculos que se pueden extrapolar a partir de las concentraciones de lactato en sangre, ofrecen información acerca de la salud y del rendimiento deportivo que puede llegar a alcanzar un caballo como deportista de élite. El objetivo del presente trabajo consistió en evaluar el rendimiento deportivo en caballos de salto para la raza Silla Argentino mediante la concentración de lactato en plasma (LAC), y la frecuencia cardiaca (FC), en una banda caminadora comercial a diferentes inclinaciones. Se evaluaron quince caballos de la Escuela de Equitación Policial, ubicada en Bogotá, Colombia. Las muestras de sangre y FC se tomaron en reposo, antes (inclinación 0 %) y durante la prueba (inclinaciones a 5,5; 10,5 y 15,5 %), y al enfriamiento. Los resultados mostraron un valor basal para la LAC y FC de 0,43 ± 0,15 mmol·litros-1 (mmol·L-1) y de 36 ± 10 latidos por minutos (lpm), respectivamente. Se evidenció una correlación positiva entre estos parámetros a medida que se incrementaba el porcentaje de inclinación de la banda caminadora. Para las diferentes medias en la LAC no se evidenciaron diferencias significativas (P>0,05), no siendo así para la mayoría de comparaciones entre las medias referentes a la FC (P<0,05). Se determinó que el umbral aeróbico para la población analizada se inicia a una elevación de 10,5 % en la banda caminadora a una FC media de 71 lpm. En conclusión, los caballos de la raza Silla Argentino de salto analizados pueden mantener o mejorar el rendimiento deportivo con las condiciones establecidas por la banda caminadora en velocidad e inclinaciones mejorando el umbral aeróbico.

O índice de caminhabilidade é a métrica para aferição da qualidade das calçadas públicas. Dentre as diversas metodologias que buscam objetivar dados subjetivos sobre a qualidade dos passeios, os sistemas de informação geográfica concentram-se no armazenamento destes. Este trabalho objetiva desenvolver um modelo conceitual de banco de dados baseado em índices de caminhabilidade das calçadas públicas de forma a subsidiar o planejamento urbano e o direcionamento de políticas públicas. Como método de pesquisa utilizou-se os estereótipos da OMT-G para elaborar o modelo conceitual a partir da construção de diagrama de classe, dicionários de dados e de domínios. Os resultados obtidos forneceram um caminho estruturado de como os índices de caminhabilidade e demais características complementares podem ser inseridas e integrados ao cadastro técnico municipal. Avançando, assim, campo teórico, prático e social no sentido em que os padrões definidos por meios destes resultados reduzirão os vieses subjetivos de cada pesquisador nas etapas de levantamento, armazenamento e disseminação destes dados.

Introdução: A telemedicina é uma união entre a medicina e a tecnologia, visando o oferecimento de amplo espectro de serviços à comunidade. Durante a pandemia, a telemedicina se tornou essencial, mas levantou o questionamento se a tecnologia de fato poderia ser utilizada para o treinamento médico de acadêmicos. Métodos: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura nas bases de dados Pubmed, Cochrane e LILACS com os descritores “telemedicine” e “medical education”. Resultados: De 1675 artigos, 17 estudos fizeram parte da amostra final. A telemedicina, embora apresente pontos negativos, demonstrou-se extremamente custo-efetiva e, por vezes, subestimada. Conclusão: Os artigos demonstraram consonância dos ao inferir que a telemedicina se torna efetiva no ambiente acadêmico, ao proporcionar maior interatividade, integração dos conteúdos, acesso a oportunidades de aprendizado e maior nível de confiança em teleconsultas. Desta forma, se torna necessário a realização de mais estudos para que a telemedicina possa ser aplicada amplamente, reduzindo as suas limitações.

Este estudo teve por objetivo analisar a inclusão de usuários de cadeira de rodas em cursos de Odontologia. Pesquisa exploratória com abordagem qualitativa. Teve como cenário o Brasil, no qual participaram dois acadêmicos de Odontologia, e a França, com participação de um cirurgião-dentista, todos usuários de cadeira de rodas. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de entrevista semiestruturada, realizada em vídeo conferência. As entrevistas foram gravadas, transcritas e analisadas por meio do discurso do sujeito coletivo na teoria das representações sociais. Foram identificadas quatro categorias analíticas com ideias centrais: escolha pelo curso, instituição de ensino superior; desafios e adaptações; e percepção sobre o mercado de trabalho. Evidenciou-se que a inclusão de usuários de cadeira de rodas é uma realidade nos cursos de Odontologia. Embora exista o medo do preconceito e da discriminação, os maiores desafios estão na realização de adaptações estruturais necessárias para o desempenho das suas funções no âmbito universitário e profissional.

Published: August 2022

As mudanças advindas por meio da globalização e as significativas restrições sociais que ocorreram em função do distanciamento social provocado pela pandemia do covid-19, trouxeram repercussões importantes para as organizações. No campo da psicologia organizacional, pode-se afirmar que uma destas repercussões foi à necessidade de maiores investimentos do ponto de vista científico e tecnológico no uso dos testes psicológicos informatizados. O objetivo do artigo é apresentar a viabilidade de tais testes como uma importante e estratégica iniciativa do campo da psicologia. Realizou-se um ensaio teórico por meio de uma revisão não sistemática da literatura. O artigo apresenta a conceitualização dos testes psicológicos e a importância de práticas inovadoras na área organizacional. Como resultados, foram encontrados apenas 20 estudos nacionais sobre instrumentos informatizados. Discute-se a escassez dos instrumentos informatizados para essa área e o momento atual como oportuno para a promoção da cultura de inovação.
Açúcares redutores totais e subprodutos: parâmetros para análise do processo fermentativo
Authors: Assis Evandro Carlos de , Finzer José Roberto Delalibera , Chesca Ana Claudia
Published: August 2022

O Brasil tem como matéria prima para produção de etanol, a cana-de-açúcar, que se destaca das fontes de biomassas de países concorrentes por seu alto teor de açúcares e produtividade, bem como por sua versatilidade de produção de açúcar e etanol, deixando o país em uma posição extremamente competitiva no mercado internacional. A transformação dos açúcares extraídos da cana-de-açúcar em etanol ocorre devido ao processo de fermentação, onde o caldo recebe uma quantidade de fermento (levedura) que por reação metabólica converterão a sacarose em glicose e frutose e por fim transformando-as em etanol e dióxido de carbono. A emissão de carbono durante todo o processo produtivo de etanol e açúcar é compensada pela absorção do mesmo durante o plantio da cana-de-açúcar sendo a sua cultura benéfica ao meio ambiente. Se considerarmos que durante um processo de fermentação 100% dos açucares se converteriam em etanol pela ação da levedura, estabeleceríamos uma relação estequiométrica que 100 quilogramas de sacarose, frutose e ou glicose produz 51,11 litros de etanol no entanto tal relação não ocorre na prática devido às reações paralelas realizadas pela levedura que objetivam sua manutenção no meio açucarado. O cálculo do rendimento fermentativo, relação entre açúcares alimentados ao processo e etanol produzido, é de grande importância para avaliação do processo fermentativo e a possível ocorrência de distorções que geram perdas para a produção.

Dengue virus (DENV) is classiﬁed into four serotypes: DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4 which are genetically-related but antigenically distinct types. Although primary infection with a serotype of DENV gives lifelong immunity to that serotype, the secondary infection with other serotype leads to the development of dengue hemorrhagic fever and dengue shock syndrome. Serological tests that can detect NS1 antigen on the day one of illness is nonspecific and less sensitive to diagnose dengue in the first week of illness. IgM and IgG antibody detection may not be positive until the later part of first week. Hence it is necessary to develop a nucleic acid-based test kit for detection of DENV in the early phase of the disease such that the complications can be prevented. Simultaneous detection of serotype of DENV helps in understanding the epidemiology of the disease. In the present study, a single primer pair was designed to 3′ untranslated region of DENV genome. After amplification, the melting temperature (Tm) for DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3 and DENV-4 was found to be 83.96 ± 0.58 ˚C, 81.99± 0.26 ˚C, 84.54± 0.15 ˚C, and 83.28 ± 0.12 ˚C, respectively.

Apples (Malus Domestica) are among the oldest and most popular fruits in the world. China is currently the world's largest apple producer. While apples are mostly eaten fresh, they are processed into beverages, jams, jellies, and other foods. Polyphenols are the bioactive compounds and their stability, bioavailability, and antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects are influenced by many factors. Eating apple and its processed products or extracts rich in polyphenols has been linked to a reduced risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and many other diseases, although some of these require further confirmation. They're loaded with powerful antioxidants, including quercetin, catechins, phloricin, and chlorogenic acids, which protect against the onset of breast and colon cancer and help prevent kidney stones and balance cholesterol levels. Studies have found that people who eat at least two apples a week can reduce the risk of developing asthma and type 2 diabetes and promote lung health.
