The playboy milieu in post-socialist Hungary
Authors: Nagy Zita
Published: January 2022

By the 1960s, consumer habits focused on the freedom of selfrealisation, independence and the spending of leisure time became solid values in American culture. Values related to sexuality went through dramatic changes and erotics became part of mass culture as magazines designed for men were introduced onto the market. Playboy magazine, the pioneer of a new segment of the printed press, was born in this environment. Read by masses of people, this magazine had a very strong influence on public life in the second half of the twentieth century, and also served as a model for new lifestyle magazines launched onto the gradually expanding publishing market. If we consider the changes taking place in society as being key to its overwhelming success, then the magazine and the set of values represented by it can be subject to scientific investigation. The purpose of this study is to prove the existence of this correlation by comparing the sociological characteristics of two societies situated in different geographic locations at different times.
Trust and social capital research in Hungarian economic sociology, 1995-2012. A literature review
Authors: Dén-Nagy Ildikó
Published: January 2022

The concepts of social networks, social capital and trust and their impact on the economic arrangements and performance of nascent capitalist economies have raised many research questions in the post-socialist countries of Europe. The following paper is designed to summarize the directions and conclusions of the empirical research which has been carried out in connection with trust and social capital in Hungary between 1995 and 2012. To maintain a clear and narrow focus, this literature review pays attention only to those papers that undertake analysis in the field of economy. This includes such research that is designed to investigate the trust and social capital-related aspects of economic transactions, economic behaviors and attitudes. Correspondingly, papers that discuss issues like trust in democratic institutions (e.g. Boda, Medve-Bálint 2012), the effects of social capital on social inequality (e.g. Lengyel, Bartha, 2000; Bartus, 2001), on efficiency in education (e.g. Fényes, 2008), on wage income (e.g. Sik, 2004; Hermann, Kopasz, 2011) or trust and social capital from the perspective of immigration (e.g. Gödri, 2010; Göncz, Lengyel, Tóth, 2012) are omitted intentionally. I also leave out of consideration the wide range of literature which focuses on corruption (e.g. a recent social capital-related paper by Szántó, Tóth, Varga, 2012). Although the phenomenon of corruption is closely related to the question of trust, relationship networks and social capital and has been intensively researched in post-socialist countries, including Hungary, research about corruption is a distinct literature within economic sociology which is too broad to be discussed substantively in the frame of this paper.

Candida albicans has a number of properties, including resistance to various antimicrobial agents, which allow it to survive in the root canals. Lactobacillus reuteri plays a role in maintaining oral health through interactions with the oral microbiome. L. reuteri has potential as a preventive and therapeutic agent against inflammatory diseases. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of irrigation with a reuterin-containing solution on BCR1, ACE2, EFG1, and TEC1 gene expression in C. albicans root canal biofilms. Methods: L. reuteri was cultured in MRS broth and incubated anaerobically for 24 hours at 37°C. C. albicans was cultured in Sabouraud dextrose broth at 37°C for 48 hours. A total of 24 single-rooted premolar teeth were standardized and inoculated with C. albicans before irrigation with 50 μg/mL reuterin as a single, independent variable (Indonesian strain), 50 μg/mL reuterin Prodentis (a strain combination of L. reuteri DSM 17938 and L. reuteri ATCC PTA 5289), 2.5% sodium hypochlorite as positive control, and saline as negative control. A real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) assay was used to detect the expression of BCR1, ACE2, EFG1, and TEC1 in C. albicans root canal biofilms. Results: Reuterin significantly reduced the expression of BCR1 and ACE2 genes, which play a role in C. albicans biofilm formation, at the biofilm maturation stage (P < 0.05). Reuterin also affected the expression of the EFG1 and TEC1 genes, although the effect was not significant. Conclusion: A reuterin isolate of L. reuteri exhibits antibiofilm activity against the expression of C. albicans genes involved in biofilm formation. Reuterin has potential as an irrigation agent in the treatment of root canals. Further research is needed to shed light on the effectiveness of reuterin against the expression of genes that play important roles in the formation of C. albicans biofilms.

Authors: Fajar Muhammad
Published: January 2022

In the development of statistics, there are two views of parameters, namely frequentist and Bayesian. In Bayesian, the parameter is a random variable, not a constant like a frequentist view. The research aims to estimate the function or model of household consumption agrees using the Bayesian method. The data used in this study are GDP (y) and household consumption (x) at constant prices (2000) for the 1983Q1 - 2016Q4 period sourced from the Statistics-Indonesia. This study results that the Bayesian regression modeling of the household consumption function agrees with Zellner's previous use. The income coefficient in this model is significant and gets a marginal propensity to consume the value of 0.5702. This implies that more than half of people's income is used for consumption purposes.

Weak discontinuities in one-dimensional compressible nonideal gas dynamics
Authors: Srivastava Shobhit Kumar , Chaturvedi Rahul Kumar , Singh Lal Pratap
Published: January 2022

This article concerns the study of various parameter effects on the propagation of weak discontinuities by using the method of characteristics. Analytical solutions of the quasi-linear system of hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs) are obtained and examined the evolutionary behavior of shock in the characteristic plane. The general behavior of solutions to the Bernoulli equation, which determines the evolution of weak discontinuity in a nonlinear system, is studied in detail. Also, we discuss the formation and distortion of compressive and expansive discontinuities under the van der Waals parameter effect and small particles for planar and cylindrical symmetric flow. The comparison between planar flow and cylindrical symmetric flow is studied under the influence of nonidealness and mass fraction of dust particles. It is found that the compressive waves become shock after a certain lapse of time. The medium considered here is the mixture of van der Waals gas with small dust particles.
Changes in the Financial System of Vas County at the Beginning of the 20th Century
Authors: Halász Imre
Published: January 2022

The purpose of the study. To showcase the growth of the region’s savings banks network during the period of Hungary’s capitalist development between the turn of the century and the World War I. Applied methods. Primarily data published in the financial almanac ‘Magyar Compass’ and newspaper articles of the time were sourced for the purposes of the study. Of financial indicators, balance sheet total and aggregate cash turnover figures were used. The study presents the accessible data of all the savings banks in operation at the time. Outcomes. By the end of 1912, various types of financial services had already been available in 28 Vas County settlements with 53 savings banks operating in the county. Their number was augmented by five branches and two affiliates. The savings banks furthermore established 17 disbursement points. This network of financial institutions was complemented by the Austro-Hungarian Bank (Osztrák-Magyar Bank, OMB) and two discount houses operating in Szombathely. The market district of Szombathely covered the whole county. While several larger microregional money markets were created, significant amounts were repatriated by Hungarians emigrating to America. Amidst all these changes, two banks’ bankruptcies made it known nationwide that the development of the local financial network was not without its failures.
Teaching Land Law: Controversy and Land Policy in Hungary from 1948 to 1968
Authors: Dániel Luka
Published: January 2022

Topic of the study. During the harsh Stalinization from 1948 agriculture had to be collectivized while land was not nationalized by decree as the Bolsheviks did in Russia in 1917. The Soviet legal system was a pattern for jurists but the differences made the transition to “socialism” more rugged and controversial. The legal scholars had to interpret a situation which had to develop further to full “socialization”. In order to do that, a “cooperative law” and a “land law” had to be created and taught as part of “agricultural law”. Research questions and methods. Land law consisted of regulations regarding private farmers and collective agricultural producers (cooperatives, state farms etc.), theoretically in the whole research period. How did the agrarian, cooperative and land policy affect legal theory on land tenure system? What kind of scientific dispute emerged on this matter and how did the attempts of codification of land law affect legal education? Various types of sources were evaluated, for instance protocols of council meetings of the faculty of law of two universities, archival sources, articles and studies from authors who taught land law and took part in its debate and codification. Results and conclusions. Law was used as a tool to boost transformation, and the lawmakers and jurists faced a paradox situation in which there was a need of codification of land law and to make it independent from other branches of law. On the one hand, jurists argued like Gyula Eörsi and Miklós Világhy that civil law had primatus in the legal system and property relations had to be included in that part of legislation during the “transition period”. On the other hand, many jurists, for instance Iván Földes, Imre Seres claimed that cooperative law or/and land law were separated branches of law despite the fact that mass collectivization was not completed until the spring of 1961.
Lage der Mühlenindustrie im Komitat Baranya und die Veränderungen der Beschäftigtenzahlen zwischen 1876 und 1886
Authors: Zsindely Borbála Rózsa
Published: January 2022

The purpose of the study: This paper aims to analyze how the number of workers changed in the mill industry of Baranya County between 1876 and 1885. The study is based on statistical surveys conducted in those two years. The statistics were compared for several labor market factors (number of entrepreneurs, assistants, apprentices). The earlier statistics (1876) are part of the first authentic national survey, while the milling survey, published in 1885 as a separate publication, contains data. Applied methods. Statistical surveys and data were analyzed and compared. At the end of the study, a mathematical calculation was also performed on the problem of labor force change. From the number of mills closed, it was calculated how many mill workers could lose their jobs during the narrow decade studied. The latter procedure may continue to play a significant role in the future due to the scarcity of available data. Outcomes. The study has two results. The first is that the number of workers in the milling industry (contractors, assistants, apprentices) has decreased in the nine years between the two statistical surveys. The second is that the closure of the mills has contributed significantly to the reduction in the working force. These results call for further investigation. One of the most relevant questions to be answered is: what was the reason for the decrease in the number of mills and the number of workers in the milling industry in Baranya at the same time as the milling industry was a driving force in Hungary.
T1 and T2 Mapping in Uremic Cardiomyopathy: An Update
Authors: Arcari Luca , Camastra Giovanni , Ciolina Federica , Danti Massimiliano , Cacciotti Luca
Published: January 2022

Uremic cardiomyopathy (UC) is the cardiac remodelling that occurs in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). It is characterised by a left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy phenotype, diastolic dysfunction and generally preserved LV ejection fraction. UC has a major role mediating the increased rate of cardiovascular events, especially heart failure related, observed in patients with CKD. Recently, the use of T1 and T2 mapping techniques on cardiac MRI has expanded the ability to characterise cardiac involvement in CKD. Native T1 mapping effectively tracks the progression of interstitial fibrosis in UC, whereas T2 mapping analysis suggests the contribution of myocardial oedema, at least in a subgroup of patients. Both T1 and T2 increased values were related to worsening clinical status, myocardial injury and B-type natriuretic peptide release. Studies investigating the prognostic relevance and histology validation of mapping techniques in CKD are awaited.

Published: January 2022

A 57-year-old man presented with recurrent palpitations. He was diagnosed with rheumatic mitral stenosis, right posterior septal accessory pathway and atrial flutter. An electrophysiological study after percutaneous balloon mitral valvotomy showed that the palpitations were due to atrial flutter with right bundle branch aberrancy. The right posterior septal pathway was a bystander because it had higher refractory period than atrioventricular node.
Access to constitutional complaint procedures: A real chance?
Authors: Váradi Ágnes
Published: January 2022

In a recent decision, the European Court of Human Rights concluded that the constitutional complaint before the Hungarian Constitutional Court can be seen as an effective domestic remedy. This decision shows the growing role of constitutional complaint procedures even in the international system of human rights protection; therefore, it is worth examining how national laws ensure efficient access to such procedures. The current paper aims to analyse a specific aspect of this complex problem, namely, the question of legal aid in constitutional court proceedings – particularly constitutional complaints procedures – in Germany, Austria and Hungary. As a general staring point, it is intended to derive the need for legal aid from the national constitutions, followed by an analysis on the availability of legal aid schemes for constitutional complaint procedures and their conditions. The examination is based on the national legal provisions and case-law, as well as the relevant secondary literature. This comparative study can enable some conclusions to be drawn on the question of how constitutional complaints can become more efficient tools in the protection of fundamental rights for those in need, as well.

GIS tools for landscape character assessment: case of Ziban region in Algeria
Authors: Menasra Asma , Bouzaher Soumia
Published: January 2022

Landscape is an area formed by the interactions between humans and nature, which bring various characteristics to the area. Landscape Character Assessment (LCA) methods enable more accurate description, mapping, and evaluation of features within the landscape. Also, landscape characterization and classification is facilitated by the advances of Geographic Information Systems (GIS), which constitute a very efficient tool for analysis and overlay mapping. This paper explores and tests an application of Landscape Character Assessment (LCA) methodology at a regional scale in Ziban region, Algeria, combining natural and cultural attributes using GIS. The first stage of overlay of attributes is followed by the verification of draft map involving a visual assessment on-site in order to develop the final classification and assessment describing each landscape character area and type. The study results show that Ziban region has a rich structure with diversified landscapes created by unique natural and cultural landscape values composed of 36 different character areas and 19-character types. The main contribution of this research consists in developing a typology for Ziban landscape and providing useful results for decision-making related to the future management of landscape character in the Algerian context, which has undergone strong pressure related to urbanization, industry, transport, desertification, and tourism.
The Concept of the Meaning of Uff in the al-Qur'an
Authors: Syafi'i Azka Noor
Published: January 2022

This paper discusses the concept of Birru al-Walidain in the Qur’an, especially in Qs. al-Isra 'verse 23 which seems to be ignored nowadays, of course, Birru al-Walidain here is related to actions, especially words to parents. In the study of semiotics, the word uff is a symbol in the delivery of speech that must be interpreted. One of the semiotic theories developed by scholars is Roland Barthes' semiotics because Barthes uses structural analysis in textual criticism. In his theory, Barthes offers two stages of theory. First, it is referred to as a linguistic system or commonly known as denotative meaning. Second, it is called a mythological system commonly known as connotative meaning. More details. The linguistic system is textual reading and the mythological system is contextual reading. It is certain that the concept of Birru al-Walidainin the Qur'an is very relevant to Barthes' theory, even to other contemporary problems today. Then, the author will apply Barthes' semiotic theory to understand the concept of Birru al-Walidainin the Qur’an. The results of the application of the theory in Q.S al-Isra verse 23, namely: the linguistic system in the word uff which is not only interpreted as "ah" but also a prohibition not to speak harshly to parents. While the mythological system is that a child is required to serve his parents by loving them both. The ideology contained in this verse is related to morals, not only to parents, but also to older people.

The Understanding of Hadith on Jihad in LDII: A Study of Wali Barokah Kediri and Gading Mangu Jombang Pesantrens
Authors: Anam Wahidul
Published: January 2022

Abstract: Jihad is a term that continuously caught the attention of academics. The stigma of “radicalism” became a topic of discussion along with the emergence of various religious-based violence in Indonesia. The Indonesian Institute of Islamic Dawah (LDII) pesantrens (Islamic boarding schools) in Jombang and Kediri, East Java, are among large pesantrens in East Java, which have unique characteristics, including the study of the main books of h}adi>th, S{ah}i>h} al-Bukha>ri> and S{ah}i>h} Muslim. This article sheds light on their interpretation of hadi>th on jihad and its implication on the development of religious radicalism thoughts in LDII. It suggests that no indication of religious-based violence emerged in both LDII pesantrens. The students have been exposed to religious radicalism and have studied on jihad, but there have been almost no violent or radical movements in performing their religious duties. In addition, the students showed significant radical attitudes towards jihad. They agreed with jihad as written in the hadi>th books and ready to carry out jihad. 
Abstrak: Jihad merupakan satu istilah konseptual yang terus mendapat perhatian dari para akademisi. Stigma “radikalisme” menjadi topik perbincangan seiring dengan munculnya berbagai kekerasan berbasis agama di Indonesia. Pesantren Lembaga Dakwah Islam Indonesia (LDII) di Jombang dan Kediri, Jawa Timur, termasuk di antara pesantren-pesantren besar di Jawa Timur yang memiliki ciri khas, di antaranya adalah kajian terhadap kitab-kitab hadis otoritatif, yaitu S{ah}i>h} al-Bukha>ri> dan S{ah}i>h} Muslim. Artikel ini menyoroti interpretasi mereka terhadap hadis tentang jihad dan implikasinya terhadap perkembangan pemikiran radikalisme agama di LDII. Tulisan ini menunjukkan bahwa tidak ada indikasi kekerasan berbasis agama yang muncul di kedua pesantren LDII tersebut. Para santri pada dasarnya telah bersinggungan dengan radikalisme agama dan juga telah mempelajari jihad, namun hampir tidak ditemukan adanya gerakan kekerasan atau radikal dalam menjalankan tugas keagamaannya. Meski demikian, di sisi lain para santri juga menunjukkan sikap radikal yang signifikan terhadap jihad. Hal itu tampak dari sikap mereka yang sepakat dengan jihad seperti yang tertulis dalam kitab-kitab hadits dan mereka juga siap untuk melakukan jihad.

Authors: Naqiyah Naqiyah
Published: January 2022

There are various kinds of interactions between people and the Qur’an in Muslim societies. Ideally, lecturers of Islamic universities have a quality interaction to the Qur’an. This paper aims at elaborating various models of interaction in behaving the Qur’an by the lecturers of IAIN Purwokerto. It explores the forms, values, motives and interpretations of lecturers’ interaction to the Qur’an. The research employs an integrative approach by combining social approach of David Murley’s reception theory on three possibilities for accepting text and religious approach on three levels of worshipers. The paper argues that the way the lecturers behave the Qur’an is classified into four receptive model of interaction: liturgical, aesthetic, intellectual, and mystical reception.  The four model of interactions are mostly representing the ‘dominant reading,’ where they interact to the Qur’an as it was. While some others are typically representing the ‘negotiated reading’ and even ‘transactional,’ where they improve a new reading of the Qur’an which in line to their socio-cultural milieu.

RESUMO Os fungos filamentosos e leveduras podem estar associados a diferentes patologias no homem e animais. O leite e seus derivados contaminados com estes microrganismos podem constituir potenciais vias de transmissão de zoonoses a eles relacionadas. Foram analisadas 70 amostras de leite, sendo 50 de tanques de refrigeração, 10 de latões de propriedades de exploração leiteira e 10 de latões de distribuidores que comercializam leite informal, visando a comparação da qualidade destes produtos quanto à presença e quantidade de fungos. Foram isolados, em diferentes percentagens, fungos filamentosos e leveduras a partir de todas as amostras de leite das diferentes procedências: Candida spp. (C. krusei, C. guilliermondii, C. tropicalis, C. kefyr, dentreoutras), Geotrichum spp., Rhodotorula spp., Trichosporon spp., Aureobasidium spp., Penicillium spp., Acremonium spp., Chrysosporium spp., Mucor spp. e Aspergillus spp. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre as medianas das quantidades de unidades formadoras de colônias de fungos/ mL de leite das diferentes procedências, indicando que o nível de contaminação por fungos nas amostras destas três origens foi similar. Pode-se verificar que em todas as amostras de leite cru havia a presença de fungos, todos passíveis agentes de micoses oportunísticas.

RESUMO A importância do gênero Trichogramma no controle biológico tem intensificado sua utilização em muitos países, tornando cada vez mais relevante o conhecimento de seus hospedeiros. Dessa maneira, objetivou-se com este trabalho avaliar a especificidade de Trichogramma pretiosum em relação a três espécies hospedeiras habitualmente parasitadas, Anagasta kuehniella, Spodoptera frugiperda e Plutella xylostella. O ensaio foi realizado no Laboratório de Biologia e Criação de Insetos da Faculdade de Ciências Agrárias e Veterinárias de Jaboticabal – UNESP. Foi realizado teste sem chance de escolha para o parasitóide em relação aos ovos daqueles hospedeiros. Verificou-se que para a primeira geração houve diferença significativa para o parâmetro biológico número de ovos parasitados, onde ovos de A. kuehniella foram os mais parasitados. Para a segunda geração, a porcentagem de emergência e o período de desenvolvimento ocorreu de forma análoga à da 1ª geração nos 3 hospedeiros, não havendo diferenças estatísticas entre os eles. O maior número de ovos parasitados foi observado para os hospedeiros A. kuehniella e S. frugiperda, diferindo estatisticamente de P. xylostella. Pelos resultados conclui-se que a linhagem Tp-8 de T. pretiosumtem melhor adaptação ao hospedeiro A. kuehniella apresentando condições para utilização em programas de controle biológico, tanto de S. frugiperda como de P. xylostella.
Comprehensive Approach to Customer Experience Quality Assessment in the Context of Sales Management Goals and Rising Retail Trade Competition Trends
Authors: Novikova Nadezhda
Published: January 2022

In the current conditions of increased retail trade competition, which include the pandemic, further decrease in consumers’ purchasing power, tougher competition between federal and regional retail chains and digitalization, it is crucial to improve the customer experience quality, ensuring its compliance with new customers’ requirements and the opportunities presented by digital technologies. In this context, the need to solve the problem of improving the validity of the assessment of the customer experience quality, which is considered the most important object of sales management and a factor of competitiveness of trading companies, becomes particularly relevant. The study of various approaches to conducting this assessment made it possible to identify such problems as lack of consensus on the essence of the concept of ‘customer experience quality’, incomplete accounting of factors affecting the customer experience quality, lack of systematization of indicators of its assessment, insufficient development of approaches to assessing the customer experience quality compared to the competitors. The author clarified the definition of ‘customer experience’ from the standpoint of the interests of trade companies interested in assessing the customer experience quality as a tool that provides an increase in the level of sales management and competitiveness. Based on the proposed approach to the systematization of indicators for assessing the customer experience quality, an integrated approach to its assessment is presented, which allows not only calculating integral indicators for assessing the customer experience quality and comparing it with that of competitors, but also private indicators that allow identifying directions of its improvement.
Assessment of Corruption Level as a Component of Governance Indicator: International Experience and Russian Practices
Authors: Bakhtairova Elena , Anganova Alexandra
Published: January 2022

As corruptions is one of the most important problems in most modern states, its assessment forms an important part of integral governance indicator. Worldwide Governance Indicators (WGI), a technique, worked out by The World Bank, is widely used in the international level. Since 2019 the technique “Methodology of Conducting Sociological Surveys for Corruption Assessment in the Constituent Entities of the Russian Federation” (further in the text — Methodology of the Russian Federation Government), adopted by the Government Decree of the Russian Federation, is used in the national level. The main purpose of the present research is to evaluate how the national methodology of corruption assessment reflects the quality of governance in this sphere. The research focuses on the main techniques for corruption assessment in different levels. The study analyses the main scientific statements for corruption assessment as a component of integral quality indicator of governance. Secondary data of corruption survey’s findings formed the information and empirical base of the research. The novelty of the study is in developing original author’s approach towards methodological aspects of comprehensive governance assessment. It was found that the national methodology is an alternative approach, characterizing the quality of governance in this sphere. The research revealed several drawbacks of the indicative methodology issued by the World Bank. The Methodology of the Russian Federation Government more appropriately reflects the corruption level and more accurately characterizes the governance quality in the sphere of fighting corruption in the regions of the Russian Federation.
Conceptualization of Chinas Foreign Policy: A Product of Ambition or Circumstances?
Authors: Rinchinov Artyom
Published: January 2022

Amid the escalating disagreements in US-China relations, which became the main theme of the global foreign policy agenda in 2010s, the contours of the new policy of Chinese Foreign Ministry have been showing more and more clearly. Traditionally, the narrative of Western analysts has described this policy as a well-thought-out scheme designed by Beijing to take over the global leadership, linked directly to the figure of the Communist Party of China Chairman, Xi Jinping. The purpose of this article is to examine the origins and milestones of the current Chinese foreign policy doctrine. Having analyzed them, the author came to the conclusion that the PRC’s behaviour in international politics is largely reactive. During the Republican administrations in the U.S. it was China that was the main advocate of the idea of «global peace» and was forced to undertake fundamentally new international commitments.

Authors: Shitova Milena , Ovanesyan Sergey
Published: January 2022

This study examined the problems of calculating the time to create a software product using the example of the company "RKIT" LLC. The article discussed the analysis of the most effective, from the point of view of the authors, methods for assessing the complexity of projects. As a result of the review, the authors suggested to create a decision support system. This system will consist of two blocks: an automated information computing system based on the PERT method and an artificial intelligence system in the form of an expert system, which is a repository of expert knowledge. The creation of a DSS will reduce the time for experts to make decisions and reduce the likelihood of a decrease in the profitability of the project, which will lead to an increase in the company's profit.

Народные дьяволы и моральная паника
Authors: Коэн Стэнли
Published: January 2022

Моды и рокеры, скинхеды, дизайнерские наркотики, фальшивые беженцы и парни в толстовках... У каждой эпохи — своя моральная паника. Именно благодаря классической работе Стэнли Коэна, впер- вые опубликованной в начале 1970-х годов и с тех пор неоднократно перерабатывавшейся, термин «моральная паника» вошел в широкое употребление. Это выдающееся исследование вскрывает, как СМИ и зачастую власть предержащие относят то или иное обстоятельство либо группу к угрозе общественным ценностям и интересам. Разоблачая кричащие заголовки СМИ, Коэн демонстрирует, как эти процессы приводят к маргинализации таких групп и их очернению в народных представлениях, осложняя рациональное обсуждение социальных проблем. Более того, автор утверждает, что моральная паника позволяет увидеть линии разлома, пронизывающие общество, и властные отношения в нем. Книга адресована культурологам, социологам, исследователям медиа, социальным психологам, но будет интересна и широкому кругу читателей.

SHIMS 3.0: Highly efficient single-haplotype iterative mapping and sequencing using ultra-long nanopore reads v1

Published: January 2022

The reference sequence of structurally complex regions can only be obtained through a highly accurate clone-based approach that we call Single-Haplotype Iterative Mapping and Sequencing (SHIMS). In recent years, improvements to SHIMS have reduced the cost and time required by two orders of magnitude, but internally repetitive clones still require extensive manual effort to transform draft assemblies into reference-quality finished sequences. Here we describe SHIMS 3.0, using ultra-long nanopore reads to augment the Illumina data from SHIMS 2.0 assemblies and resolve internally repetitive structures. This greatly minimizes the need for manual finishing of Illumina-based draft assemblies, allowing a small team with no prior finishing experience to sequence challenging targets with high accuracy. This protocol proceeds from clone-picking to finished assemblies in 2 weeks for about 80 dollars per clone. We recently used this protocol to produce reference sequence of structurally complex palindromes on chimpanzee and rhesus macaque X chromosomes. Our protocol provides access to structurally complex regions that would otherwise be inaccessible from whole-genome shotgun data or require an impractical amount of manual effort to generate an accurate assembly.
Dezentrale Urinbehandlung mit nullwertigem Eisen

Published: January 2022

Zu den Arzneimitteln, die vermehrt in der aquatischen Umwelt gefunden werden, gehören die iodierten Röntgenkontrastmittel (IRKM). Wesentlicher Eintragspfad ist die Ausscheidung IRKM-haltiger Präparate nach computertomografischen Untersuchungen in Krankenhäusern und Röntgenpraxen. Aufgrund ihrer schnellen Eliminationskinetik im menschlichen Körper stellt die Urinseparation eine effektive Möglichkeit zur Emissionsverminderung an der Quelle dar. Den behandelten Patienten können Urinbeutel mitgegeben werden, in denen der Urin innerhalb der nächsten 8–10 Stunden gesammelt, über Superabsorber fixiert, dem Hausmüll zugeführt und schließlich verbrannt wird. In dieser Arbeit wird als Alternative die reduktive Dehalogenierung der IRKM mit nullwertigem Eisen (ZVI) geprüft und eine Vorschrift für die Durchführung durch den Patienten abgeleitet. Unter Zuhilfenahme von nanoskaligem ZVI können hohe Stoffumsätze erreicht werden. Allerdings ist aufgrund des dafür notwendigen Aufwands eine eher geringe Kooperationsbereitschaft des Patienten zu befürchten.
