“[T]he most mortifying sight” : retour vers les Struldbrugs dans Gulliver’s Travels.
Authors: Viviès Jean
Published: December 2021

L’épisode des Struldbrugs occupe le chapitre X à la fin de la Troisième Partie de Gulliver’s Travels. Il met en scène des Immortels alors que Gulliver se trouve à Luggnagg. On a pu voir dans ces pages un épisode presque autonome, décrit parfois comme une fable. Mais ce dernier est tout de même inséré dans un récit qui possède sa logique et sa structure. Sa construction narrative amène à susciter une lecture décalée de celle de Gulliver. La parabole philosophique sur la mortalité et l’immortalité intervient en un lieu du texte qui fait sens dans son économie générale. Sans doute écrit en dernier, l’épisode s’inscrit dans un double temps, dans une séquence narrative et hors de celle-ci, dans un récit de voyage et hors d’une consécution d’aventures. Les Struldbrugs évoquent in fine les personnages de la littérature, mortels et immortels à la fois.
Cartographic Monsters and the Rise of Empiricism
Authors: Turban Manon
Published: December 2021

Cet article étudie l’impact de l’empirisme sur les monstres cartographiques au dix-septième siècle à travers l’analyse de trois cartes : celle que Jodocus Hondius offre en 1598 du territoire décrit par Walter Ralegh dans The discouerie of the large, rich, and bevvtiful empire of Guiana (1596), celle que Thomas Edge livre de Spitzberg (1625), et celle publiée en 1631 dans A prospect of the most famous parts of the vvorld où John Speed représente la Chine. Ces trois cartes soulignent en effet la trajectoire des monstres cartographiques à une époque où l’empirisme l’emporte progressivement comme méthode d’investigation de la nature. Tandis que les créatures monstrueuses apparaissent encore à la toute fin du XVIe siècle grâce aux témoignages qui attestent leur existence, elles semblent ensuite condamnées à deux destins : elles paraissent s’évanouir pour céder la place à la faune de la région représentée ou sont mobilisées uniquement à des fins décoratives.
Interpreting Native Trans-Appalachia, 1670-1770
Authors: Ray Kristofer
Published: December 2021

En 1723, Fanni Mingo, surnommé « le roi des écureuils », membre de la tribu des Chicasas (Chickasaw) du bas du Mississippi, livre aux Britanniques de la Caroline du Sud une carte en cuir de cerf. Celle-ci indique des routes commerciales ainsi que des systèmes hydrographiques (principalement celle du Mississippi-Ohio-Tennessee-Wabash). Elle indique également où se situent, approximativement, de nombreux campements qui parsèment la frontière appalachienne. Cette carte nous permet de reconstruire les réalités complexes et changeantes de la vie le long de cette frontière au cours du xviiie siècle. La carte de Fanni Mingo est un point de départ pour reconstruire une histoire autochtone entre 1700 et 1750. Ce que « le roi des écureuils » nous révèle, c’est que la réalité autochtone ne reflète pas l’image véhiculée par les envahisseurs européens d’une population passive, sédentaire, et ancrée en place. Au contraire, comme cet article le démontre, il s’agit d’un monde autochtone évoluant, caractérisé par une résistance face aux envahisseurs et où les Européens peinent à trouver une solution à la discorde entre leurs prétentions de pouvoir colonial et la réalité du contrôle autochtone.
Mapping Dispossession: the Social Worlds of Adlum’s 1792 Pennsylvania Map
Authors: Mandelblatt Bertie
Published: December 2021

Dans les premières décennies d’existence de la Jeune République américaine, des Etats comme le Vermont, le Massachusetts et la Pennsylvanie ont produit des cartes de grand format sur plusieurs pages afin de préciser et de consolider leur identité en tant qu’Etat dans le cadre de l’Etat-nation étatsunien émergent. L’une des questions brûlantes, à la fois pour l’Etat fédéral et les Etats fédérés, était alors celle de l’expansion à l’Ouest, parce que remettant en question les frontières qui avaient été fixées et parce que promettant, en apparence, un agrandissement sans fin. Cet attrait de l’Ouest est omniprésent dans la carte de l’arpenteur, John Adlum, réalisée en 1792 et intitulée A Map Exhibiting a General View of the Roads and Inland Navigation of Pennsylvania. Commandée par la société récemment créée par la Pennsylvanie pour la promotion de tels travaux publics, cette carte met en évidence l’essor de la spéculation foncière reposant sur les « améliorations » telles que les routes et les canaux, ces infrastructures reposant elles-mêmes sur le déplacement des populations amérindiennes devant quitter les terres situées à l’Ouest des villes côtières, dont Philadelphie, immédiatement après la Guerre d’Indépendance. Cet essai révèle les antécédents coloniaux de la carte d’Adlum en mettant en lumière les similarités et les liens avec les cartes réalisées depuis les débuts de la cartographie de la colonie en 1681, et il étudie comment Adlum a prédit la future forme de l’Etat, ce qui situe Adlum et sa pratique de la cartographie dans le contexte colonial et dans celui de la jeune république.
Cartography and Narrative in the Maps of Herman Moll’s The World Described
Authors: Zukas Alex
Published: December 2021

Herman Moll (c. 1654-1732) was the most renowned cartographer in early 18th-century Britain and his large double-sheet atlas, The World Described, first published in 1709 and expanded during Moll’s lifetime and even after his death, was the most important folio atlas of its day. While historians like Dennis Reinhartz have discussed the presence of Moll’s maps in encyclopedic geography texts like Atlas Geographus as well as buccaneer narratives like William Dampier’s A Voyage Round the World and Woodes Rogers’ A Cruising Voyage Round the World and fictional texts like Daniel Defoe’s Robinson Crusoe and Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver’s Travels, they have not discussed to any extent how narrative was an integral part of Moll’s maps in The World Described. Numerous notations and comments, along with images, insets, and views, established a narrative framework for reading Moll’s maps which were clearly entangled with the scientific, artistic, political, diplomatic, military, and economic concerns of his day. This article examines the interplay of line, word, and image in selected Moll maps and explains how they combined appeals to scientific accuracy, profitable enterprise, and national good to form a narrative in support of British imperial endeavor that foregrounded British foreign economic, political, and territorial interests in an age of fierce imperial rivalries.
L’art au parloir
Authors: Yeghicheyan Jennifer
Published: December 2021

Les parloirs de la maison d’arrêt de Villeneuve-lès-Maguelone ont ceci de particulier qu’ils ont été aménagés par deux artistes de renommée internationale : Hervé Di Rosa et Jean Le Gac. Il ne s’agit pas ici de productions culturelles réalisées par les détenus eux-mêmes tel que cela peut s’observer dans d’autres parloirs, d’autres prisons françaises. Le projet est porté par un programme philanthropique visant à promouvoir l’art en associant les usagers des lieux à la réalisation de l’œuvre. Quelle forme prend ce dispositif dans le cas des parloirs ? En portant la focale sur la fabrique du lieu par un groupe constitué d’acteurs artistiques, de professionnels et de bénévoles intervenant en détention, l’objectif de cet article est d’analyser la combinaison des logiques artistiques et philanthropiques avec le cadre carcéral.

Green tea mouthwash may be a safe and feasible adjunctive treatment for inflammatory periodontal diseases. Therefore this study was conducted for evaluating the effect of green tea.
Aberrant Vertebral Artery and Screw Placement in Lateral Mass of C1 in Atlantoaxial Fixation
Authors: Parthiban J. K. B. C.
Published: December 2021

Aberrant vertebral arteries at C1 and C2 facet regions are rare. These vessels can pose challenges while inserting screws into the lateral mass. However, mobilization of these vessels is possible to obtain specific screw entry points. In normal bony anatomy, these aberrant vessels are tortuous and hence can be mobilized quickly. Multiple screw entry points are available for safe screw placement. Aberrant vessels at this region do not preclude the placement of screws in lateral mass.
Strategiczny model funkcjonalny z koordynującą rolą Regionalnego Centrum Oceny Inwestycji wspartego przez Narodowy Fundusz Zdrowia oraz Agencję Oceny Technologii Medycznych i Taryfikacji – model mieszany

Mixed functional model HB-HTA with the coordinating role of the Regional Center for Investments supported by the Polish National Fund and Agency for Health Technology Assessment and Tariff System

The implementation of the strategic model for hospital health technology assessment in Poland requires the involvement of many stakeholders. HB-HTA fundamentally concerns hospitals and how they rationalize decision making in implementing innovative medical technologies. However, the need to obtain public funding after verifying the effectiveness of a given medical technology or to keep up with the evolving HB-HTA method­ology naturally requires the involvement of both the payer (NFZ) and the Agency for Health Technology Assessment and Tariff System in activities connected with the implementation and development of HB-HTA. An important aspect of the coordination of activities in relation to hospital HTA is also the support given to hospitals by regional authorities – competent health departments in voivodeship offices – by assessing HB-HTA reports prepared by the hospitals and indicating regional competitive potential of a given medical technology. This creates a hybrid/mixed system of insti­tutional support for innovative medical technologies implemented in hospitals.

This institutional plurality within HB-HTA is a clear asset, strengthening the hospital’s planned undertaking substantively and financially, especially when the assistance mechanisms undertaken are flexible, soft in nature, and allow hospital units to shape effective HB-HTA activities.

IoT Cloud Computing Middleware for Crowd Monitoring and Evacuation
Authors: Gazis Alexandros , Katsiri Eleftheria
Published: December 2021

Map-Reduce is a programming model and an associated implementation for processing and generating large data sets. This model has a single point of failure: the master, who coordinates the work in a cluster. On the contrary, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are distributed systems that scale and feature large numbers of small, computationally limited, low-power, unreliable nodes. In this article, we provide a top-down approach explaining the architecture, implementation and rationale of a distributed fault-tolerant IoT middleware. Specifically, this middleware consists of multiple mini-computing devices (Raspberry Pi) connected in a WSN which implement the Map-Reduce algorithm. First, we explain the tools used to develop this system. Second, we focus on the Map-Reduce algorithm implemented to overcome common network connectivity issues, as well as to enhance operation availability and reliability. Lastly, we provide benchmarks for our middleware as a crowd tracking application for a preserved building in Greece (i.e., M. Hatzidakis’ residence). The results of this study show that IoT middleware with low-power and low-cost components are viable solutions for medium-sized cloud computing distributed and parallel computing centres. Potential uses of this middleware apply for monitoring buildings and indoor structures, in addition to crowd tracking to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Cerclage outcomes in singleton pregnancies at risk for preterm birth following assisted reproductive treatments
Authors: Şahin Gülnaz , Acet Ferruh , Tavmergen Goker Ege Nazan , Tavmergen Erol
Published: December 2021

Objective: We aimed to evaluate the obstetric and neonatal outcomes of singleton pregnancies at risk for preterm birth (PTB) following assisted reproductive treatments and underwent cervical cerclage placement.

Material and methods: A total of 42 women with singleton pregnancies following ART who underwent cerclage between 2009-2021 were included in this retrospective study.  Indications of the cerclage procedure, gestational age at cerclage placement and delivery, neonatal birthweight, and requirement for admission to the neonatal unit of newborns were evaluated.

Results: Of those cerclage placement performed in women with a history of second-trimester loss (19%), women with suspected cervical insufficiency according to pre-pregnancy evaluation (52.4%), women with the unicornuate uterus (4.8%), women with cervical shortening/or suspicious changes on ultrasonography (11.9%), and women with detection of cervical dilatation/shortening beyond 20 weeks of gestation (11.9%). Of the total group, 7.1% resulted in late miscarriages, while the remaining 92.9% ended with a live birth with mean gestational age at delivery of 37.0±2.5 weeks. Of those live births, 92.3% (36/39) delivered at >34 weeks and %74.4 (29/39) delivered at term. Except one neonatal death due to extremely PTB at 26th weeks, all infants were discharged from the hospital with well condition.

Conclusion: ART pregnancies are evaluated as a special group as having a higher PTB risk at baseline. Cerclage may be considered in broader indications for suspected cervical insufficiency in these pregnancies. There is need for further studies on the effectiveness of cerclage in these ART pregnancies with suspected cervical insufficiency based on different criterions used.
Tubal reanastomosis results of our clinic: A tertiary center experience
Authors: Göklü Mehmet Rifat , Tunç Şeyhmus
Published: December 2021

Objective: In our study, it was aimed to determine the clinical results of 42 patients who underwent tubal reanastomosis for various reasons.

Materials and Methods: Our study included 42 patients at fertile age who presented to our clinic for tubal reanastomosis between 2017 and 2019. Demographic information and surgery notes of the patients were accessed through the hospital files and hospital archive system. For retrospective screening, patients were contacted by phone and their pregnancy status was learned.

Results: Of the patients, 47.6% (n=20) were operated on due to a wish for fertility, 53.4% (n=22) because of other reasons. The mean age of the patients was 36.2 and the mean number of children of the patients was 4.85. Laparotomy was performed in 23.8% (n=10) of the patients, and laparoscopic surgery in 76.2% (n=32). Our intrauterine pregnancy rate after tubal reanastomosis was calculated as 9.5%.

Conclusion: Tubal reanastomosis can be performed by both laparoscopic and mini-laparotomy methods. We recommend performing bilateral reanastomosis if possible. We think that it would be appropriate to prioritize laparoscopic surgery because it is minimally invasive and provides high pregnancy success.

The interactive effects of Cd and natural siliceous mineral analcite on Cd phytotoxicity and rate of accumulation in plant tissues have been analyzed. The test-plants of corn and hemp were grown in pots under controlled conditions of light, temperature, and soil moisture for 21 days in experiments modeling the following treatments: (1) without any amendments (control); (2) with the application of 0.1 % and 0.5 % (by weight) of CdSO4; (3) Cd salts (CdSO4) + analcite 0.1 g, 0.25 g, and 0.5 g per container. Test-plants performance was assessed by their growth characteristics (shoot height and root length), the content of photosynthetic pigments, macro- and micronutrients in leaves. The effect of Cd on maize and hemp plants inhibited their growth, chlorophyll biosynthesis in the leaves, led to a change in the balance of macro- and microelements, which leads to the accumulation of Cd in the tissues of shoots of both studied crops. Application of analcite partially compensated for the negative effects of Cd salts on the crop’s growth, chlorophyll content, and balance of nutrients and reduced Cd accumulation significantly in shoots.

This study aims to measure the causal relationship between the dollar and euro at exchange rates among today's investment instruments and the deposit interest rate, Gold, Bist xu100 and the index of government domestic debt securities.Dec. Dec. The data in the study are daily data between 17/08/2017-26/05/2021 and were selected from a recent time Dec. Data with CBRT evds resources investing.com retrieved from. In this way, it is possible to see how variables adapt to today's financial world and the pandemic period. The method of the study is the Granger causality test, which is often used in time series analysis. When individuals make investment choices, they choose according to the fact that macro variables such as inflation, growth rate, and Exchange Rates fluctuate during periods of crisis and recession. This often affects even the credit demands of institutional investors. Central banks want to influence macro variables with various intervention tools, but because the economies of some countries are fragile, individuals can often suffer even as a result of these optimistic policies. According to the results of this study, the dependent variable in the model where the BIST100 index of the dollar and gold values, the probability of 0.000<0.05 causal relationship is true of dollars for deposit in the model where the dependent variable is the interest rate of government securities of the index, the probability value of 0.0001 p<0.05 and Bist100 index 0.0162 probability value<0.05 and the probability for the value of the dollar 0.02<0.05 can be considered to be a causal relationship due to being towards deposit rates. The probability of the dependent variable in a model of the euro BIST100 index value 0.0001 p<0.05, gold probability value of 0.000<0.05 Euros causal relationship is true for government securities in another model where the dependent variable of 0.0040 p<0.05 probability value from deposits with interest ,0.0000 p<0.05 0.0043 Bist100 index and the probability value p<0.05 is the probability for the value of government securities under de towards causality can be said. In a model in which the Bist100 index is a dependent variable, there was a causal relationship towards the Bist100 index ,as the probability value of the euro was 0.0012<0.05, the probability value of gold was 0.0000<0.05, the probability value of government domestic debt securities was 0.0013<0.05, and the probability value of the dollar was 0.0007<0.05. Finally, the model in which gold is a dependent variable concluded that there is no causal relationship between the Euro, dollar, dibs and Bist100 index and deposit interest to gold, since the probability values of other variables are greater than 0.05.

This study investigates possible differences, which are born by tendency of holding more liquid assets in technology intensive firms, in working capital management policies in emerging markets. 437 firms from 15 emerging countries have been analyzed by the use of Kuruskal Wallis and Mann Whitney U tests. The results revealed that technology intensive firms have been following different and more aggressive working capital management policies compared to less technology intensive ones.
MUTUALLY EXCLUSION OF PROJECTS OF DIFFERENT VALUES BY THE BENEFIT-COST METHOD
Authors: KAYA Murat
Published: December 2021

The recovery of an investment is very important in the world of economy. While businesses are preparing long-term projects for investment purposes, basic criteria such as changing economic conditions, risks, cash flows of the project, discount rate to be applied, economic life should be estimated in advance. For this reason, businesses prepare different projects that can provide the same economic conditions for the projects they prepare. In order to compare these projects, a cost-benefit table is prepared and evaluated in terms of their advantages. In line with these values, it is ensured that the most correct project is selected by eliminating each other. In this study, the cost-benefit ratio method was applied to three different projects. For all three projects, 10% annual interest and numerical values between 15 and 60 years of life are given. As a result of the evaluation of the projects, the most suitable project was determined by eliminating each other. Cash flows are calculated based on present and annual equivalents.
GENERATION DIFFERENCES IN BUSINESS LIFE AND GENERATION Z
Authors: DURMAZ Şerife , OKUMUŞ Bülent
Published: December 2021

For successful interaction and communication to occur in organizations, it is necessary to understand the characteristics of each generation and what motivates them to be successful and good employees. In an organization, many of the employees' values and attitudes towards work can be quite different from previous generations, and managers need to take these generational differences into account in order to effectively manage the workforce. Strauss and Howe (1991) identified eighteen generations throughout four centuries of American history, dating back to the first New World colonizers. In this study, the differences in working orientations and attitudes between generations within the scope of the Traditional Generation, Baby Boomer Generation, X Generation, Y Generation and Z Generation, which are the generations that affect / will affect today's working life, are discussed. After explaining what kind of environment these generations were born into and how they were affected by social, economic and environmental conditions, it was examined how these generations achieved unity in their working environments. It has been contributed to the recognition of Generation Z by their managers and colleagues, who have just entered or will enter the labor market, and to learn what kind of working group they are/will be faced with, and suggestions are made for the future labor markets.

The Association of Coal-Fired Power Plants and the Mortality of COVID-19
Authors: Irwin Alexander , Hodgson Robert
Published: December 2021

With the outbreak and spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (COVID-19), the world was ushered into a global pandemic. One of the most alarming aspects of the disease is the high mortality rate. Previous research has shown that long term exposure to air pollution has been correlated with the mortality rate of respiratory diseases. The focus of this study was to determine if there was any association between the mortality of COVID-19 and one of the primary producers of air pollution, coal-fired power plants. Using data from the US Energy Information Administration, John Hopkins University, and census department, a chi-square test and a poisson regression analysis were conducted to determine if living in proximity to coal-fired power plants had any effects on the mortality of COVID-19. The chi-square test results showed that there was no statistical significance as the variables showed independence. These results illustrate that there is no association between coal-fired power plants and the mortality rate of COVID-19. To expand on the results of the chi-square test, a poisson regression analysis was performed to account for the presence of confounding variables. This analysis showed similar results to the chi-square test, but due to issues with outliers in the data causing overdispersion, the model was unable to be accurately conducted, making all results inconclusive. With the inconclusive results of the poisson regression analysis, the conclusions drawn from the chi-square test were not able to be generalized as they were not verified in the presence of confounding variables.

Abstract. Optimising the treatment of idiopathic Parkinson's disease is a complex, multifaceted and continuous process that directly affects quality of life. The main position of this examination is the need for individualised therapy that provides optimal motor function with the least negative consequences. Apomorphine, a dopamine agonist used as rescue therapy for patients with motor fluctuations with a potentially positive effect on non-motor symptoms, is the only antiparkinsonian drug whose ability to control motor symptoms is equivalent to that of levodopa. Subcutaneous injection is the most effective and affordable way to correct dopaminergic insufficiency in Parkinson's disease. The data of multi-centre studies presented in the review confirm the high efficiency, adequate tolerability, and prospects of using apomorphine in the complex pathogenetic therapy of the disease. This review provides historical background and summarises the structure, mechanism of action, pharmacodynamics, indications, contraindications, and side effects of subcutaneous apomorphine injections in the advanced stages of Parkinson's disease.
