Determining the Response of Water Fleas to Some of the Excitatory and Toxic Chemical Solutions by Heart Rates
Authors: Karademir Arda Sarp , Can Melisa , Sönmez V. Zülal , Sivri Nüket
Published: November 2024

Water fleas have become a valuable model for ecotoxicity studies due to their ease of cultivation, transparent bodies, and high sensitivity to chemical pollutants. In this study, heart rates in Daphnia magna were examined reflecting the basic behavioral and physiological characteristics when exposed to known toxic chemicals. Crystal violet, ethanol, and formaldehyde, known for their toxicity, were selected due to their different chemical properties. A slow-motion video-based method was organized to measure cardiovascular performance by evaluating the heart rates in water fleas. Data for important parameters like heart rates, body reactions, and heart contraction were extracted from video recordings and mathematical calculations. The results of study were quite remarkable. It was found that crystal violet increased the heart rates of Daphnia magna (489±14.19) more significantly than ethanol (450±40.67) and formaldehyde (445±48.21). Compared to the control group, formaldehyde caused a 28.51% increase in the heart rates of daphnids, while exposure to ethanol (30.54%) and crystal violet (35.89%) resulted in a lower increase in the heart rates of daphnids. Using these cardiovascular parameters, the potential effects of excitatory and toxic chemical solutions on water fleas were accurately measured. Daphnia magna was identified as having the strongest heart rates and is deemed suitable for ecotoxicity assessment. The result of exposure to all three chemicals was an increase in the organism’s heart rates during short-term exposures, while long-term exposures could lead to toxic effects, causing fatalities.

The Jewish Messenger’s 1865 Hebrew Lincoln Acrostic: Who Wrote It, When, and Why Was It Published?
Authors: Blondheim Menahem
Published: November 2024

The focus of this article is a poem that appeared in Hebrew on the pages of a leading nineteenth-century Jewish newspaper published in New York—The Jewish Messenger—following Lincoln’s assassination. The first letters of each line of the poem spelled out the name of the late president transliterated in Hebrew, hence “the Lincoln acrostic.” The article investigates who authored the acrostic, when the published text was actually written, and the historical and Jewish frames through which the acrostic constructed the deceased president. The article leverages the thematic analysis of the poem to help answer the more prosaic journalistic queries as to who authored it and when. But beyond the journalistic queries of who, when, where, and how, the article also attempts to interpret “why.” It investigates the role of Hebrew in the minds of contemporaries, both Jewish and Gentile, and the role of journalism in expressing that mind. Beyond that, it explores the relation of the people identified with the Hebrew language and the classical Hebrew texts to the deceased Lincoln and to the United States of their times.
“Converts Made by Cupid”: Abraham Cahan and Boundary Crossing in Turn-of-the-Twentieth-Century American Journalism
Authors: Brinn Ayelet
Published: November 2024

In 1902, Abraham Cahan returned as editor of the socialist Yiddish daily Forverts (also known as the Jewish Daily Forward) after five years working for English-language newspapers. Upon his return, he attempted to transform the Forverts into a mass-consumption newspaper in the style of the American popular press. In announcements apprising readers of transformations he would bring to the paper, Cahan highlighted one upcoming feature as exemplary of the Forverts’ new direction, which explored the lives of non-Jewish immigrants in New York who converted to Judaism to marry Jewish spouses. What he did not reveal to readers was that this feature was actually a translation of a piece that he had recently published in the New York Sun, adapted to fit the needs of its new reading audience. This article will explore the English- and Yiddish-language versions of Cahan’s feature as a window into the often contested boundaries between various American and Jewish cultural spheres at the turn of the twentieth century. The content of Cahan’s article, and the context surrounding its publication, reveal the bridges that journalists and their subjects attempted to forge between different American cultural spheres at this time, and the myriad complications they faced in attempting to do so.

The Role of the Periodical in the Organization of the American Orthodox Rabbinate: Beit Va’ad laChachamim (Hebrew, 1902–1903)
Authors: Blondheim Menahem
Published: November 2024

This article documents the first significant Orthodox rabbinic periodical published in the United States: a Hebrew monthly that first appeared in 1902 and was continued by a weekly. BVC featured a broad array of rabbinic genres—among them responsa, Talmudic novellae, and religious-law treatises, homilies, opinion pieces, memoirs, hagiographies and even poetry—as well as public notices and advertisements. The article also proposes a theoretical framework, taken from organizational theory, for analyzing the periodical’s purpose, its structure, and its intended role within the specific historical and institutional circumstances of its emergence. Understanding “organization” as both a verb and a noun, it interprets the periodical itself, as well as the Union of Orthodox Rabbis in the United States that published it, as organizations attempting to organize the American Orthodox rabbinate as a self-conscious, authoritative, and autonomous entity. This effort, in turn, was a means for organizing Orthodox—mostly immigrant—Jews, their congregations and their religious life, as a coherent social entity.
Under “The Mast”: American Hebraism and the Jewish American Periodical Ha’Toren (Hebrew, 1913–1925)
Authors: Levy-Paz Gitit
Published: November 2024

The publication of Ha’Toren (“The Mast”) was a landmark in the history of the Hebraist movement in America, heralding a new spirit in the history of an elite Jewish group’s struggle to promote Hebrew culture in America. Maintaining professional journalistic standards, Ha’Toren is considered the most influential Hebrew periodical of its time (1913–25). While the writers of the Haskalah saw in Hebrew an important language to be used for commentary and criticism, the writers of the revival saw it as an essential element in the movement of national awakening. This article presents the history and the intellectual and ideological thrust of this dominant Hebraist and Zionist periodical.
A Syrian Sabbath Leaflet Grows in Brooklyn: Congregation “Beth Yosef” (Hebrew, English, Arabic, 1996–current)
Authors: Gross Daniel S. , Cohen Tehila
Published: November 2024

The New York based Syrian-Jewish Congregation “Beth Yosef” publishes under the title of its own name a trilingual weekly brochure in the format of an “Alon Shabbat,” or “Sabbath leaflet.” Examining this publication demonstrates the literary devices used by local leaders and functionaries to uphold community cohesion in contemporary America. Alongside the broader circulated, and typically more secular, so-called “Jewish newspapers,” synagogue publications face similar challenges in this “digital age.” Illustrated by “Beth Yosef,” constant adaptation and technical flexibility secure the intended messaging during media transference. The sophisticated use of languages to bridge geographic and generational gaps, the availability of online editions supplemented with audio resources, and the actual diversity of reading topics within each issue are all instruments for the maintaining of continuous dissemination of traditional values and help fortify group identity.

The prevalence of high temperature stress, a notable constraint on agricultural productivity including wheat, is anticipated to escalate in tandem with climatic evolution. Heat stress can occur at any crop developmental stage depending on the growing region; however, the reproductive and grain filling stages are the most sensitive. Reproductive heat stress may cause pollen sterility, infertile ovules, decreased fertilization, and aborted florets, which ultimately decrease grain number and yield. An experiment was conducted at Regional Agricultural Research Institute, Bahawalpur, Pakistan to identify heat tolerant wheat genotypes. Ten wheat genotypes including two commercial varieties were screened at two different dates of sowing 25th October and 10th December 2023. Results indicated that NR-602 had produced high grain yield 6966.6 kg/ha under first date of sowing. While NR-598 had produced highest yield 3351.8 kg/ha under second date of sowing. The phonological traits days to heading and days to maturity were per long in normal date of sowing while shortened in late sowing. The plant height significantly reduced in late sowing. The NDVI value was high in normal date of sowing and was low in late date of sowing. The selected line can be used further in breeding program.
A Model for Secondary Socialization and Re-socialization of Students with Special Educational Needs in an Academic Environment
Authors: Popova Ana
Published: November 2024

The current paper interprets problems and challenges in the integration of students with special educational needs (SEN) in an academic environment, offering a model for their secondary socialization and resocialization in the higher education. On the basis of the results from an empirical study with the usage of 3 instruments – survey, interview and focus group – the paper identifies problem areas in the educational process of the students with SEN, the most serious of which are: insufficient volume of the individualized approaches and support, problems in the evaluation system for students with SEN, insufficient volume of the specialized didactic tools adapted to students with SEN, need for the institutionalization of a structural unit to solve in complexity the problems with the integration of students with SEN in an academic environment. The proposed model for the socialization and integration of students with SEN has proven its effectiveness at University of Ruse “Angel Kanchev” and can be multiplied in the system of higher education in Bulgaria, in parallel with the initiation of a national normative act regulating the work with students with SEN, by analogy with the existing Ordinance on inclusive education in Bulgarian schools.

Published: November 2024

Background: Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide, with an estimated 1.8 million deaths annually. Despite declining incidence and mortality rates due to smoking reduction, significant disparities in diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes persist. Advances in targeted therapies and multidisciplinary approaches, including the roles of nursing, clinical pathology, and detailed documentation, are pivotal in improving patient care and survival rates. Aim: This study investigates the epidemiology of lung cancer, its histologic classification, disparities in patient outcomes, and the critical role of multidisciplinary teams in diagnosis and management, with an emphasis on nursing care and clinical documentation. Methods: A comprehensive review of epidemiological data, clinical studies, and emerging therapeutic innovations was conducted. The role of multidisciplinary teams and the impact of histological and molecular classifications on patient care were explored. Special attention was given to documentation practices and nursing interventions to ensure holistic care. Results: Lung cancer survival rates remain low, with a 5-year overall survival of 19%. However, targeted therapies and immunotherapy demonstrate potential in extending survival for specific subgroups. Disparities in outcomes are evident, influenced by gender, race, socioeconomic status, and LGBTQ identity.

Authors: Kim Su Cheol , Yoo Seung Jin , Jo Je Hyeong , Lee Jong Hyun , Baek Eugene , Lee Sang Min , Yoo Jae Chul
Published: November 2024

Background: Aimed to report the prevalence and predisposing factors affecting subscapularis muscle atrophy and fatty infiltration (MAFI) in patients without a subscapularis tear, and to analyze the effect of this condition on surgical outcomes.Methods: Between 2020 and 2022, 153 patients (mean age 58.1 ± 10.2 years; 84 men and 69 women) who underwent repair of posterosuperior cuff tears, with no subscapularis tears identified during arthroscopy were retrospectively analyzed. Baseline characteristics, preoperative and follow-up (6 months) magnetic resonance imaging findings, arthroscopic findings, and clinical outcomes (>1 year) were recorded.Results: The prevalence of subscapularis MAFI (Goutallier grade 1 or 2) was 73.9% (113/153), of which the prevalence of Goutallier grade 2 was 23.5% (36/153). From multivariable logistic regression analysis, female sex (odds ratio [OR], 5.6; 95% CI, 1.7–18.6; P=0.005), older age (OR, 1.1; 95% CI, 1.0–1.1; P=0.052), advanced supraspinatus MAFI by Goutallier grade (OR, 3.2; 95% CI, 1.5–6.9; P=0.004), and synovitis (OR, 2.8; 95% CI, 1.1–7.9; P=0.030) were identified as independent predisposing factors for subscapularis MAFI. However, patients with preoperative subscapularis MAFI exhibited similar final range of motion, pain and function, and belly press strength compared to those without preoperative subscapularis MAFI.Conclusions: Subscapularis MAFI is frequently observed conditions even in the absence of subscapularis tears, and this condition could be affected by supraspinatus MAFI, female sex, older age, and synovitis. However, because subscapularis MAFI does not affect the surgical outcome, surgeons need not be concerned about this condition when repairing posterosuperior rotator cuff tear.Level of evidence: IV.

To do this, we analyze aspects related to their emotions and sensitivity, placing special emphasis on a particular emotion: worry. And we do this after realizing that there is not much literature that analyzes the emotions involved in the visions of the future that awaits them. In methodological terms, we use an international research protocol (applied to young people from Mexico and France) that we developed to collect young people's opinions about themselves and their future, and finally, we present some of the most significant results that have to do with worry and resilience

Este estudio se enfoca en la consolidación de los procesos autónomos infantiles como elementos esenciales, fundamentando la comprensión del desarrollo integral del niño, la importancia de experiencias de aprendizaje significativas y la intencionalidad formativa en entornos escolares y otros contextos educativos. El propósito consiste en brindar a los niños la oportunidad de explorar el mundo, fomentando la autonomía mediante actividades que fomenten la independencia progresiva del adulto. El artículo presenta cuatro categorías emergentes: aproximaciones cognitivas y comportamentales en experiencias de aprendizaje, estructuras de desarrollo para el autocuidado y cuidado del entorno, relaciones del juego con el esquema corporal y las emociones, y la resignificación de espacios interactivos de aprendizaje. Estas categorías promueven un aprendizaje inspirador y experiencial, fortaleciendo hábitos de independencia y vinculando mente, cuerpo y emoción. La investigación, de naturaleza cualitativa, utiliza diversas estrategias metodológicas que potencian el humanismo, adoptando un paradigma hermenéutico, basándose en la Investigación-Acción. La observación participante, el juego de roles y el mural de situaciones se emplean como métodos de recopilación de información.
Dewey's Art as Experience in Global Perspective: An Introduction
Authors: Shusterman Richard
Published: November 2024

This essay introduces a special issue devoted to studying the global impact and rich, ongoing legacy of John Dewey's aesthetic masterpiece Art as Experience, ninety years after its initial publication in 1934. After noting the role that the Journal of Aesthetic Education played in assessing the book's influence, this introductory essay surveys the international reception of the book by exploring its history of translation and explaining the difficulties of its reception in certain countries. This survey demonstrates that the international reception of Art as Experience was largely retrospective, coming long after the book's initial appearance and apparently benefiting from the rise of neopragmatism and the international attention given to this new pragmatist expression. The translation and reception history of Dewey's book also reveals the economic and political factors that shape the international circulation of ideas. After five essays that focus on the reception of Art as Experience in cultures where it was translated, the special issue concludes with three more essays that discuss how the book's ideas can be applied to contemporary issues in aesthetics and philosophy more generally, while suggesting ways where the book's goals could also be furthered by treating its limitations.

Optimisation of Spare Parts Quality Inspection Cost Based on Simulated Annealing and Genetic Algorithm
Authors: Wang Yuxuan , Huang Yi , Chen Feng
Published: November 2024

This paper provides an in-depth study on the impact of spare parts quality inspection on production costs in the electronics industry. By establishing a model based on binomial distribution, central limit theorem and right-hand side hypothesis testing, the costs, profits and losses of enterprises under different testing strategies are analysed. Firstly, for the inspection cost problem of accessory products, the minimum number of inspections is determined by assuming the number of sample defective products using binomial distribution and approximating the probability by De Moivre-Laplace theorem. Second, the simulated annealing algorithm is combined to derive 16 decision alternatives based on the analysis of control variables, and the best decision with the lowest total cost is finally determined. Finally, for the case of increasing number of spare parts and the appearance of semi-finished products, a mathematical model with minimising cost as the objective function is developed and solved using a genetic algorithm to evaluate the total cost under different inspection strategies. The study shows that the model proposed in this paper can reasonably solve the cost optimisation problem in electronic product quality inspection with high efficiency and practicality.

In order to solve the problem of lateral deviation during the short-distance conveying process of paper, this paper adopts the response surface method (RSM) to establish a regression model of the paper deviation amount with respect to the feed speed, pressing force and friction coefficient. The accuracy of the model is evaluated through variance analysis, fitting accuracy analysis, residual analysis and the comparison between predicted values and experimental values. The influence of various factors on the paper deviation amount is analyzed by means of three-dimensional response surfaces and contour plots. In addition, the optimal process parameters are obtained by utilizing the Numerical function in the Design-Expert software, and the reliability of the model is verified through experiments. The research results show that the optimized process parameters are as follows: the feed speed is 42.14 bag/min, the pressing force is 0.29 kg, and the friction coefficient is 0.29. The errors between the predicted values and the measured values are all within 5%, which proves the high accuracy and reliability of the regression model. This study provides a reliable theoretical basis for the optimization of the paper feeding mechanism process in the production process of environmentally friendly paper bags and has important practical application value.
