Low-cost Tagmentation Library Prep for low-coverage Illumina sequencing v1
Authors: Farnitano Matthew , Sweigart Andrea
Published: September 2024

Tagmentation is a popular approach for preparing Illumina sequencing libraries, but kits can be pricey. Using a bulk-prepped and pre-loaded Tn5 tagmentation enzyme, this protocol is a simple, low-cost and high-throughput procedure for prepping libraries. It is designed for multiplexed low-coverage whole genome sequencing, a useful method for genotyping of many samples at low per-sample cost. Samples are prepped in 96-well PCR plates and combined into multiplexed batches. We have successfully used this protocol with Mimulus guttatus and Mimulus nasutus wild-collected and greenhouse-grown samples.

Formation of Students’ Personal Culture in English Classes
Authors: Kholodniak Olena V.
Published: September 2024

Students’ personal culture must be paid special attention at university, as the formation of a highly professional specialist means not only the acquisition of knowledge, but also the manner of behavior and ability to communicate with other people. This article reveals the approaches to the formation of personal culture of students of H.S. Skovoroda Kharkiv National Pedagogical University. We assumed that English classes may not be restricted only to linguistic issues and grammar revision, but these classes might have a high educational potential. In our experiment we researched how English classes can develop students’ personal culture. At the beginning of the academic year a survey to understand students’ awareness and interest in this issue was conducted. The analyses of the answers showed that their understanding of this notion was narrow enough. The author developed a number of activities aimed at increasing the awareness about personal culture. Such activities as mini lectures, discussions of different aspects of personal culture, role plays etc. have changed the attitude of students to their personal culture. At the end of academic year the author conducted a survey again. It showed that the understanding of personal culture was developed; the students understood the need to improve their personal culture. The components that were not discussed during the classes almost did not change in percentage terms. After taking part in the experiment, almost all students mentioned tolerance and culture of behavior in the definition of personal culture, which we also consider a positive result.
Translanguaging as Method in Science Fiction Story of Your Life
Authors: Han Lili , Zhang Jing
Published: September 2024

This article explores the intersection of translanguaging and science fiction through the case study of "Story of Your Life" by Ted Chiang. By analyzing the use of translanguaging as a method in science fiction, the article examines how it drives the development of science fiction plots. Through the exploration of the parallel narrative structure, this study highlights the pervasive presence of translanguaging in science fiction as a means to break linguistic and semiotic boundaries. Additionally, it investigates the powerful transformative impact of translanguaging, leading to cognitive changes for the protagonist/narrator and enabling the story-narration with temporal and spatial disruptions. By delving into the interplay between translanguaging and science fiction in "Story of Your Life," this article showcases how translanguaging becomes both the content and form of science fiction, creating a unique and experimental field for communication that utilizes multiple languages, modalities, and symbols.
Etiological Differences in Thoracic Traumas After Earthquake
Authors: Acıpayam Ahmet , Kozanlı Fatoş
Published: September 2024

Objective: Since Türkiye has a geography located on fault lines, the possibility of an earthquake occurring in this region will always continue to exist. After an earthquake, a variety of traumas can occur. Thoracic traumas are also injuries frequently experienced in case of earthquakes.

Material and Methods: At Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam University Thoracic Surgery Clinic, 124 patients were examined, including pre-earthquake and post-earthquake chest trauma. The pre-earthquake group was called Group 1, and the post-earthquake group was called Group 2. Gender, age, type of trauma of the patients as well as the file records of traumas were examined.

Results: The frequency of trauma increased in men compared to women. There was a significant increase in hemothorax cases. It was observed that blunt trauma etiology was again the most common cause of trauma, but the etiology of blunt trauma increased in favor of falling from a height.

Conclusion: It is planned to eliminate the housing problem in time and intensive work is being carried out in the region on this issue. We believe that with the decrease in the intensity of construction work and the beginning of reverse migration, these changing differences in the etiologies of trauma after the earthquake will return to the pre-earthquake period in time.
How Melogno prevented Hall from interfering with the use of Lewis's theory: Double prevention under debate
Authors:   Universidad Nacional de Tres de Febrero, Giri Leandro , Miguel Hernán ,   Universidad de Buenos Aires
Published: September 2024

In this paper we discuss Ned Hall's critique of David Lewis's counterfactual theory of causation, in particular for its alleged inability to account for cases of double prevention. To do so, we focus on Pablo Melogno's response to Hall, where he claims that Hall's proposed tension between the concept of dependence and the locality thesis in cases of double prevention is the effect of the omission of essential details to complete the causal chain in the examples used by Hall. Here we propose to take a further step in the defense of the counterfactual theory begun by Melogno, by reviewing the examples proposed by Hall, the modifications complexified by Melogno and the corollaries that follow from them, and proposing some relevant conceptual extensions to the ideas of the three authors.
Kuhnian Practical Politics: Why It’s (Epistemically) Virtuous to be (Evaluatively) Attached to a Paradigm
Authors:   Virginia Tech, Patton Lydia
Published: September 2024

Is it epistemically vicious to be attached to a specific scientific paradigm? Such attachment clearly violates a norm of impartiality that is associated with the value-free ideal of science. I will argue that what Samuel Scheffler (2022) calls ‘evaluative attachment’ is not always epistemically vicious. In section 1, I will present Kuhn’s account of paradigms as embodying not just theoretical positions but also a ‘constellation of group commitments’ that Kuhn came to call a ‘disciplinary matrix’ (2012/1962, postscript). Section 2 evaluates Popper’s and Davidson’s criticisms of Kuhn, drawing on the work of Pablo Melogno (2020). Section 3 evaluates the claim that impartiality is a significant source of the value we accord to science. Section 4 appeals to Samuel Scheffler’s (2022) concept of evaluative attachment to argue that partiality to a specific framework or paradigm is not an epistemic vice. I conclude with brief observations, to be elaborated in future work, on how this argument applies to science in particular.

El presente número de Mutatis Mutatis, Revista Latinoamericana de Traducción recoge artículos de investigadoras e investigadores en el contexto iberoamericano que se han interesado por la ar-ticulación de la práctica de la traducción con el mundo del libro, la edición y la lectura. En este contexto, como nos dice Roger Chartier, “los procesos de traducción no se limitan al pasaje de los textos de una lengua a otra, sino que también atañen a obras cuya lengua no se modifica, pero que resultan transformadas por las formas de publicación” (2022, pp. 18-19). Esta consideración asimila la edición con la traducción misma y pone el foco en el tipo de aproximaciones a estas prácticas. No nos concitan en este número, por lo tanto, los ejercicios comparativos o evaluativos de muchos estudios tradicionales. La constante de los artículos aquí reunidos es la atención al contexto, al devenir de los textos, a la forma como los agentes involucrados los enmarcan, los circulan y los usan.
¿Y dónde están los datos? Reflexiones sobre la información disponible en el campo de la traducción editorial
Authors:   Universidad de San Andrés, Adamo Gabriela , Rodríguez Lacroturs Victoria ,   Fundación Tomás Eloy Martínez
Published: September 2024

Para poder hacer análisis profundos de los flujos de traducción editorial es preciso contar con datos concretos que debería proveer, en primera instancia, la misma industria que la alberga. Sin embargo, en los diversos informes que producen anualmente las cámaras del libro, las asociaciones de editores y las mismas editoriales, el rubro “traducción” suele pasar bastante desapercibido. Esto se debe, en parte, a la desatención estructural por parte de los editores, pero también a la complejidad de los procesos de compra y venta de derechos y, por lo tanto, de la recopilación y el análisis de este tipo de información. Desde hace aproximadamente quince años, Argentina cuenta con dos bases de datos que a pesar de sus limitaciones, ofrecen material rico que permite abrir una serie de campos de análisis. Se trata de los trabajos realizados por la Cancillería de la Nación, por medio del Programa Sur de Apoyo a las Traducciones, y de la Fundación TyPA —Teoría y Práctica de las Artes—, a través de los informes de extraducción. En este trabajo hacemos una breve presentación de ambas bases de datos y resumimos las conclusiones más relevantes recopiladas en el último estudio de TyPA, del año 2022. A partir de ahí, trazamos un mapa que permite pensar en cuestiones como la presencia de la literatura argentina en el mundo, la evaluación de políticas públicas de traducción y la valoración de la traducción por parte de la misma industria editorial.

ASYMPTOTICALLY -ALMOST PERIODIC SOLUTIONS TO DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS IN BANACH SPACES
Authors: Chen Yong Qing , Li Hong Xu
Published: September 2024

In this paper, we establish the existence and uniqueness result of asymptotically $(\omega, c)$-almost periodic mild solutions to semilinear differential equations in a Banach space. For this purpose, we first give some properties of $(\omega, c)$-almost periodic functions and asymptotically $(\omega, c)$-almost periodic functions, including the composition theorems. Then we obtain the existence and uniqueness result of $(\omega, c)$-almost periodic mild solution to the semilinear differential equation, and the existence and uniqueness theorems for $(\omega, c)$-almost periodic and asymptotically $(\omega, c)$-almost periodic mild solutions for the corresponding linear equation. Moreover, an example of the heat equation is given to illustrate the abstract results.

Authors:   Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, College of Engineering, University of Kerbala, Kerbala, 56001, Iraq, Ali Ali Q. Abd
Published: September 2024

Traffic violations cause significant problems such as congestion, accidents, and deaths. It is highly desirable to have an effective automated system to detect and record these violations, thus improving traffic regulation enforcement and reducing human intervention. The proposed work aims to develop a cost-effective, efficient, and robust system that automatically detects traffic violations. The proposed system uses background subtraction technology to detect moving vehicles and the time and distance over which vehicles move to detect violations. The You Only Look Once (YOLO) and Convolutional Recurrent Neural Networks (CRNN) algorithms are utilized to identify the license plates (LPs) of violating vehicles with great accuracy, so that LPs are recognized using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology. The results achieved from our trial indicate promising system performance, with multiple violation realtime detection rate of 98.06% and an LP recognition accuracy of 98.22%. The superiority of the proposed work over other previous approaches has been proved in the comparison results.

Authors: Shaikh Mujahidpasha Javed , Naser M. A. , Patel Mujtaba Hussain , Salve Amol , Tupe Pramod , Parkar Mehnaaz
Published: September 2024

Background: The dorsal cortex penetration by a screw can leads to irritation and attritional extensor tendon injury in volar plating of distal end radius fracture. Our method in this study was to use dorsal tangential view (DTV) intraoperatively to detect screw protrusions in the dorsal cortex and replace these screws with screws of appropriate size.
Methods: We have enrolled 60 patients from in patient department of orthopaedics in a rural tertiary care institute (Indian Institute of Medical Science and Research Warudi, Ta. Badnapur, Dist. Jalna, Maharashtra) having distal end radius fracture above 18 years of age planned for volar plating. DTV other than standard PA, lateral view was taken to evaluate the dorsal cortex penetration.
Results: Seven patients required AP and lateral view while 14 patients needed DTV with 80% power (α=0.05, β=0.2).
Conclusions: Our study concluded that additional DTV apart from standard AP and lateral view will detect the dorsal penetration of screws and can be changed intraoperatively. Thus, DTV is advised to minimise the iatrogenic extensor tendon injury by dorsal screw penetration which might be missed in lateral view.

Authors: Vijayakumar Shruti , Kuruvilla Shalini , Parameswaran Kavitha Kanjirakkattu Mana , Hameed Shahin
Published: September 2024

: Lymphomas can originate from either nodal or extra-nodal sites, with an increasing number of patients presenting with extra-nodal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of primary extra-nodal NHL, constituting 71–81.3% of cases. DLBCL, a prevalent aggressive NHL, can manifest in various extranodal locations such as the gastrointestinal tract, thyroid, testis, breast, and skin. It can also originate in lymph nodes before spreading to extranodal sites. The heterogeneity of extranodal DLBCL leads to varied clinical presentations and prognoses depending on the affected organs.

: This case series examines instances of primary extra-nodal DLBCL occurring at rare sites. Through detailed clinical evaluations and pathological examinations, the series aims to highlight the diagnostic challenges and therapeutic approaches for these uncommon presentations. In this case series we have described primary extra-nodal DLBCL in rare sites like thyroid, cervix, liver, breast and intraventricular region. Each case is meticulously documented, focusing on the patient's clinical history, the site of lymphoma involvement, diagnostic procedures, treatment modalities, and outcomes.

: The discussion addresses the complexities of diagnosing primary extra-nodal DLBCL due to its rarity and diverse presentation. The series underscores the importance of thorough clinical and pathological assessments in identifying these cases. The heterogeneity in clinical outcomes emphasizes the need for tailored therapeutic strategies. Moreover, the series explores the immunohistochemical profiles and genetic markers that might aid in better understanding the disease's behavior and improving patient management.

Primary extra-nodal DLBCL at rare sites presents significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. This case series contributes valuable insights into the clinical and pathological spectrum of the disease, advocating for personalized treatment approaches to enhance patient outcomes.
The Transnational Nature of Canadian Immigration
Authors: Kuzmina Tatyana
Published: September 2024

The author considers a vital phenomenon in the immigration picture of modern Canada – transmigration as an expression of the transnational nature of immigration to Canada. Global changes have an impact on migrant flows. Today, immigrants are no longer isolated from their country of origin. Through the development of transport and communications, they are building extensive networks that give a transnational character to immigration, allowing migrants to return through reverse transmigration to their country of origin or to develop economic, political and cultural ties with relatives and partners at home.
The author points out the advantages of this phenomenon and the threats to the traditional values of Canadian society. Some aspects of the Canadian diaspora abroad, which is being formed in the process of transmigration, are also considered

Published: September 2024

O presente artigo aborda a crescente importância da responsabilidade civil do Estado em relação a danos ambientais, em um contexto de maior consciência sobre a necessidade de preservação do meio ambiente e promoção da sustentabilidade. A pesquisa visa explorar, sob uma perspectiva administrativo-ambiental, os fundamentos e a estrutura dessa responsabilidade, analisando a jurisprudência aplicável. O Estado, enquanto guardião dos recursos naturais, possui um papel crucial na promoção do bem-estar ambiental, e a análise jurídica das consequências de suas ações ou omissões que resultem em danos ao meio ambiente é fundamental. A pesquisa destaca a importância de compreender as tendências jurisprudenciais e os princípios que orientam os tribunais brasileiros na atribuição de responsabilidade ao Estado. Com isso, busca-se contribuir para a consolidação de um paradigma de governança ambiental responsável e sustentável, refletindo sobre as potenciais evoluções do direito ambiental. O estudo é justificado pela necessidade de elucidar os mecanismos jurídicos de accountability estatal, promovendo uma compreensão mais ampla dos critérios adotados pela justiça na proteção dos direitos fundamentais à vida, à saúde e ao meio ambiente equilibrado, conforme preconizado pela Constituição de 1988. Em última análise, o artigo pretende fornecer uma base sólida para discussões futuras sobre a responsabilidade civil do Estado em matéria ambiental.

Published: September 2024

At present, instruction via the internet is a challenge for teachers. Many teachers have changed their teaching behavior (TB) from a conventional style into a style of teaching via the internet. For this reason, this research had the objective to develop a structural equation model (SEM) of TB in internet use of lower secondary (LS) school teachers, classified according to school size. The developed SEM model of TB in internet use of LS school teachers had validity that was congruent to the empirical data of every model with good criteria of all goodness of fit indices. The model was composed of 8 latent variables from 24 observed variables. All causal variables in the model had a positive direct effect on TB in internet use, and these were able to explain the variation in TB in a large sized school, a very large sized school, and an extra-large sized school, with 99, 100, and 92, respectively.

Published: September 2024

To protect the antennas of radar stations from the external environment, various radomes are used. The main electrical requirementsfor these products is the requirement of introducing minimal distortion of electromagnetic waves (EMW) while maintaining strength and protective properties. It is important to identify and localize areas that do not meet the requirements for the magnitude of energy losses, to evaluate their sizes and boundaries. A new method for radomedefectoscopy is proposed, it includes a way for measuring losses under weak anechoic conditions, and for estimating the sizes and shapes of sections that do not meet the requirements for the magnitude of losses.
Stochastic resonance and stochastic synchronization
Authors:   Saratov State University, Anishchenko Vadim , Neiman Aleksander ,   Ohio University
Published: September 2024

The fundamental phenomenon of synchronization occurs in non-lirear self—sustained oscillators subjecled to а periodic force or coupled with each other. This phenomenon manifests itself in locking or suppressing of the natural frequency of the oscillator by periodic force. In this paper we discuss surprising synchronization like phenomena in stochastic bistable systems which have no natural frequency at all. A stochastic bistable system possesses а noise—controlled mean switching frequeicy between metastable states being ап analogy of the natural frequency. The stochastic synchronization reveals locking of the mean switching frequency by external pericdic force. The same phenomenon can be observed in coupled stochastic bistable systemis.

Avaliação de serviços de saúde de Atenção Primária na perspectiva dos Agentes Comunitários de Saúde – ACS´s e usuários de Assentamentos Rurais e Reservas Extrativistas no Nordeste Paraense (Paper 569)
Authors: De Oliveira Antônio Idalmir Rodrigues , Mathis Armin
Published: September 2024

Este estudo teve como objetivo verificar o funcionamento dos atendimentos de saúde no meio rural, especialmente em dois Assentamentos Rurais e duas Reservas Extrativistas localizadas no Nordeste do Estado do Pará na Amazônia brasileira. Na pesquisa, utilizou-se o método de abordagem quantitativa e um caráter exploratório, com a aplicação de um questionário respondido pelos participantes para a obtenção de informações e dados do detalhamento da rede de atendimentos em saúde pública, que estão ao alcance dessas populações. Os participantes que responderam à pesquisa foram 23 Agentes Comunitários de Saúde e 40 usuários das unidades básicas de saúde das localidades incluídas na pesquisa que foram: Assentamento Rural de Cupiúba em Castanhal, Assentamento Rural de Taperuçu em São Domingos do Capim, Reserva Extrativista de São João da Ponta e Reserva Extrativista Mãe Grande de Curuçá. As principais deficiências constatadas a partir das respostas dos participantes foram: ausência de transportes públicos nas localidades, ausência de dentistas e falta de estrutura nas unidades de saúde. As localidades com a maior satisfação a respeito dos serviços de saúde foram a Resex Mãe Grande de Curuçá e o Assentamento de Cupiúba, com 50% dos entrevistados satisfeitos, e as localidades com a maior insatisfação foram a Resex de São João da Ponta e o Assentamento de Taperuçu, com 50% insatisfeitos com os serviços de saúde pública prestados.Palavras-chave: Assentamentos Rurais. Reservas Extrativistas. Atenção Primária. Agentes Comunitários de Saúde. Nordeste Paraense. Amazônia.
Apontamentos para o estudo do desamparo aprendido
Authors: Hunziker Maria Helena Leite
Published: September 2024

O presente texto destaca alguns aspectos conceituais, metodológicos e teóricos relacionados ao estudo do desamparo aprendido com o objetivo de nortear o pesquisador iniciante no tema. Essas considerações são fundamentadas em trabalhos experimentais com sujeitos não humanos, formuladas a partir da perspectiva comportamentalista radical. São abordados criticamente os conceitos de controle e incontrolabilidade, o delineamento experimental triádico que caracteriza essas pesquisas, a definição do efeito comportamental em estudo, as principais hipóteses explicativas e a sua proposição como modelo animal de depressão. Algumas hipóteses alternativas são também apontadas em função do seu potencial de incentivo para novos estudos. Dois problemas encontrados nos estudos da área são destacados: 1) a suposição da “expectativa” como variável independente e 2) o uso ambíguo do termo “desamparo aprendido”, tanto para designar o efeito comportamental como uma das hipóteses que o explicam. Espera-se que o texto contribua para que analistas do comportamento iniciantes possam estabelecer procedimentos e interpretações rigorosos dos resultados obtidos, possibilitando o avanço na compreensão do desamparo aprendido. Palavras-chave: Desamparo aprendido, controle, incontrolabilidade, modelo animal, depressão.
Uma introdução ao estudo da ressurgência comportamental

Published: September 2024

Frequentemente nos deparamos com situações em que observamos o reaparecimento de algum comportamento que há muito tempo não ocorria. O termo “recaída” tem sido utilizado para se referir a esse fenômeno e engloba diversos modelos experimentais. Um dos modelos possíveis é o da ressurgência comportamental, definido como o reaparecimento de uma classe de respostas que foi anteriormente reforçada e que teve a sua probabilidade reduzida, quando as condições de reforçamento para o responder atual são pioradas. A ressurgência tem sido demonstrada em diversas espécies, e os estudos na área têm auxiliado a identificar fatores importantes na recaída de comportamentos problemáticos. O presente artigo apresenta uma introdução ao campo de estudo da ressurgência comportamental, identificando a trajetória histórica da formação do conceito, seus aspectos metodológicos e variáveis de controle, suas principais teorias explicativas e implicações deste campo de estudo para Análise do Comportamento Aplicada. Espera-se que a introdução apresentada contribua na disseminação do tema, introduzindo novos estudantes nessa área que ainda é pouco discutida no âmbito da graduação em psicologia. Compreender a ressurgência ajudará na formação de profissionais que planejem sistematicamente suas práticas de intervenção, considerando a possibilidade de mitigar o reaparecimento de comportamentos problemas e produzir comportamentos adequados. Palavras-chave: reaparecimento, recaída, ressurgência comportamental.
Nomeação bidirecional e a formação de classes de estímulos: um diálogo entre Skinner e Sidman
Authors: Bernardy João Lucas , Hübner Martha
Published: September 2024

Este trabalho é uma introdução à teoria da nomeação bidirecional, enfatizando sua fundamentação nos operantes verbais de Skinner e sua relação com o paradigma de equivalência de Sidman. Considerando a paridade entre a análise do comportamento verbal e o estudo do comportamento simbólico, há um surpreendente isolamento entre essas áreas de pesquisa. Sugere-se que a nomeação bidirecional, que tem sido abordada em muitos trabalhos empíricos recentes, apresenta conceitos que favorecem um diálogo entre os trabalhos de Skinner e Sidman, por meio de uma intepretação verbal para o fenômeno da equivalência. A fim de detalhar essa interpretação, descreve-se como o comportamento de ouvinte e os operantes verbais ecoico e tato compõem os elementos fundamentais da nomeação bidirecional. Descreve-se, então, as formas por meio das quais a nomeação bidirecional pode dar origem a classes de equivalência. Considera-se que esta introdução permite ao estudante se aprofundar no tema, preparando-o para colaborar em projetos de pesquisa voltados para o estudo molecular e preciso do comportamento verbal complexo.Palavras-chave: comportamento verbal, nomeação bidirecional, equivalência, nomeação comum, nomeação intraverbal.
