الماء ومصادره في مدينة القدس الشريف وجهود الدولة العثمانية في توفيره دراسة وثائقية من خلال السجل الشرعي مع تحقيق رسالة في تعمير عين بيت المقدس
Authors: الخليلي محمد , رجا السوارية نوفان
Published: October 2022

الكتاب الذي بين أيدينا ‏مصدر لا غنى عنه لدارسي تاريخ فلسطين وآثارها. كما أن مؤلف ‏الرسالة الشيخ محمد الخليلي هو أحد أبرز علماء القدس الشريف. يعطينا الجزء الأول (وهو دراسة) من الكتاب صورة واضحة وحية عن الأوضاع الاجتماعية والاقتصادية التي كان المقدسيون يعيشونها في مرحلة الخلافة العثمانية. وتركز الدراسة أساسا على موضوع نقص المياه في مدينة القدس الشريف، إذ تطرقت للشدة والضيق التي كان يعانيها السكان نتيجة انحباس الأمطار وانقطاعها لسنوات أحياناً؛ وذكرت كل أنواع الآبار والبرك والقنوات التي كان يعتمد عليها الأهالي. وعرجت على أهم الجهود التي قامت بها الدولة العثمانية في توفير المياه.‏ أما القسم الثاني من الكتاب فهو تحقيق لـ «رسالة في تعمير عين بيت المقدس للشيخ محمد الخليلي»، وهي رسالة تتحدث عن الأزمة المائية المزمنة التي كانت تعاني منها مدينة بيت المقدس، بسبب خراب العين، والدمار الذي لحق بالقناة التي تنقل المياه منها إلى المدينة؛ وقد أهداها المؤلف لجناب محمد أفندي، قاضي القدس ‏الشريف، الذي أشرف بنفسه على تعمير عين بيت المقدس سنة 1122هـ / 1710م. وثّق الشيخ الخليلي جهود الدولة آنذاك في توصيل الماء إلى القدس، كما وثّق أعمار المسجد الأقصى وقبة الصخرة وبعض المواقع.
Algılanan Aşırı Nitelikliliğin Yapıcı Rol Dışı İş Yeri Davranışları Üzerindeki Etkisinde Girişimcilik Yöneliminin Düzenleyici Rolü
Authors: ŞEN Aynur , NEMLİ ÇALIŞKAN Esra
Published: October 2022

Bu çalışmanın amacı, aşırı niteliklilik algısına sahip olan çalışanların yapıcı rol dışı iş yeri davranışları ve bu davranışların üzerindeki girişimcilik yöneliminin düzenleyici etkisini incelemektir. Araştırma verileri, Türkiye'nin en büyük ilk 500 sanayi kuruluşunun 525 beyaz yaka çalışanından anket tekniği kullanılarak elde edilmiştir. İlgili firmalar faaliyet gösterdikleri iş alanlarında nispetten daha gelişmiş olduğundan örneklem grubu olarak İSO ilk 500 kuruluşları tercih edilmiştir. Araştırmaya katılan katılımcılardan elde edilen veriler SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) for Windows 25.0 ve AMOS (Analysis of Moment Structures) 23.0 programı kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmada aşırı niteliklilik algısının yapıcı rol dışı iş yeri davranışları üzerindeki etkisi incelendiğinde, aşırı niteliklilik algısının yapıcı rol dışı iş yeri davranışları üzerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ve pozitif yönde bir etkisi olduğu görülmüştür ancak aşırı niteliklilik algısına sahip olan çalışanların yapıcı rol dışı iş yeri davranışı sergilemesinde girişimcilik yöneliminin düzenleyici etkisi incelendiğinde değişkenler arasında girişimcilik yöneliminin düzenleyici rolünün anlamlı olmadığı bulgulanmıştır. Elde edilen bu çıktılar doğrultusunda, araştırmanın teorik ve uygulanabilirliğine ilişkin etkileri tartışılarak gelecekte oluşturulacak çalışmalara tavsiyelerde bulunulmuştur.
Le corps anatomique dans l’œuvre de Kiki Smith : l’image médicale dévoilée
Authors: d’Hardemare Sybille
Published: October 2022

Des planches d’écorchés aux techniques modernes d’imagerie médicale, la médecine n’a cessé de créer des images du corps. Malgré leurs motivations scientifiques, ces images cristallisent pourtant des rapports de pouvoirs souterrains. Au prisme de l’œuvre de l’artiste américaine Kiki Smith et en remontant la tradition du savoir anatomique, depuis la Renaissance jusqu’aux Vénus des médecins (xviiie siècle) en passant par l’imagerie médicale, cet article s’interroge sur la mise en regard du corps, celui des femmes en particulier, et analyse comment l’élaboration du savoir médical peut être source de contraintes.
L’identité féminine à l’ère d’Internet : les avatars d’Amalia Ulman
Authors: Sayman Mélissa
Published: October 2022

L’artiste argentine Amalia Ulman crée, en 2014, Excellences & Perfections : une performance croisant revendications féministes et identités en ligne. C’est au xxe siècle que les luttes et revendications identitaires, notamment féministes, prennent leur essor ; ces combats pour l’égalité se poursuivent aujourd’hui sur Internet et notamment grâce aux réseaux sociaux. Pour interagir sur ces plateformes, chacun·e se crée un avatar, interface représentative de soi. Dans le même temps, les artistes investissent ces nouvelles plateformes d’échange. Mélissa Sayman propose d’analyser l’existence en ligne au prisme de l’œuvre d’Amalia Ulman, qui met en scène un double d’elle-même dans cette longue performance — et amène par cet « avatar » la problématique de la double-identité aujourd’hui.
Du détail au sample visuel, les tactiques de résistance culturelle de Njideka Akunyili Crosby
Authors: Fenon Gwenaëlle
Published: October 2022

Effet de cause de la grande quantité d’images diffusée par les flux médiatiques, la mise en spectacle de la société que l’on observe à travers le champ prédominant du visuel au quotidien tend à générer et généraliser un comportement passif chez l’individu. Toutefois, à l’encontre de cet a priori, on peut observer dans les pratiques d’artistes contemporains, de nouveaux protocoles d’usage de l’image qui mettent en lumière le caractère actif du sujet contemporain. Ce texte invite à découvrir le travail de l’artiste afro-américaine Njideka Akunyili Crosby qui, depuis une sélection d’images issue de ses archives personnelles et d’Internet, souhaite définir l’identité postcoloniale en exprimant son rapport au monde entre le Nigéria et les États-Unis d’Amérique. Telle une ode à la nécessité de produire de nouvelles conceptions visuelles et idéologiques, son œuvre nous interroge sur le pouvoir de déchiffrage de l’image et plus largement de notre propre regard.

Des ailes de mouches, du fil de soie d’araignée, de la crépine, des aigrettes de pissenlit, des plaques de cristaux ou des algues marines : l’environnement quotidien se mêle d’une pléthore de matières que nous rencontrons fréquemment sans plus y prêter d’attention. C’est bien là que se trouve la problématique du travail de l’artiste plasticienne Léa Barbazanges : elle se réapproprie des matériaux ordinaires pour transformer notre vision du réel.
Les chroniques de disques viking metal dans la presse musicale française
Authors: Théodore Simon
Published: October 2022

À travers la publication de chroniques de disques viking metal dans la presse musicale spécialisée, les journalistes participent à la médiation et à la réception de ce phénomène culturel en France. Le cadre médiatique, c’est-à-dire le format chronique, influence la forme et le contenu de leurs discours. Ils mettent alors en place des stratégies narratives pour retranscrire, sur un support papier, leur expérience d’œuvres musicales. En tant qu’unique énonciateur, ils créent un lien avec le lecteur et, en tant que témoin de l’évolution de cette scène, ils participent à l’élaboration d’une mémoire collective, propre à une communauté métal spécifique : celle des amateurs de viking metal.
« Yes, we can » : du virtuel au réel, immerger pour mieux régner ?
Authors: Zepka Juliana
Published: October 2022

Faut-il diviser pour mieux régner ? Malgré l’aspiration à rassembler les individus selon leurs intérêts communs à travers la création de réseaux sociaux, l’instauration de filtres de contenus participe aujourd’hui à l’orientation des opinions. Mis en place pour l’agencement d’un Internet « personnalisé », ces derniers offrent une navigation optimisée à l’utilisateur mais vont également être à l’origine d’une censure de l’information non sans conséquence. L’information orientée favorise alors la formation d’une cyber-bulle alimentée par le sentiment d’immatérialité des actions réalisées à travers les interfaces des écrans et favorise l’état d’immersion dans un présent permanent. Portées par l’effet fédérateur du récit et du discours, les communautés virtuelles peuvent, par le pouvoir de rassemblement des réseaux sociaux, devenir réelles le temps d’une manifestation sans pour autant prendre conscience des risques encourus par le passage du virtuel au réel. Les illusions nourries par le cyberespace et l’impression d’anonymat qui y règne peuvent alors rapidement faire place à la confusion et l’affrontement.

L’explorateur, l’habitant, le technicien
Authors: Kopp Lucie
Published: October 2022

Premier réseau social au monde, l’immense plate-forme de partage qu’est Facebook place la dualité entre vie privée et vie publique au cœur des problématiques qui l’entourent. Au-delà de ce premier enjeu de notre présence en ligne, se pose la question du cadre numérique formel de Facebook : limitatif en termes de créativité et d’autofiction, il est également prescripteur de comportements. Face à ces différentes problématiques se dessinent, en creux, les possibilités d’une autre expérience du réseau remettant en question la domination exercée par le géant, souvent à travers une réinvention de ses usages. Dans quelle mesure les artistes peuvent-ils explorer, repousser, remodeler les limites du réseau social ?
Du perdeur qui s’expose : les avis de recherches en disent plus que ce que l’on y lit
Authors: J. Moser Sebastian
Published: October 2022

Au cœur des réflexions se trouve un objet ordinaire : l’avis de recherche décorant les lampadaires des quartiers d’habitation, parfois en robe de pochette en plastique, soigneusement scotché. Dans la perspective de contribuer à l’élaboration d’une sociologie de la perte, les avis de recherche nous invitent à considérer l’« hétérogénéité des pertes ». La perte d’un animal de compagnie ou bien d’un artefact quelconque, ne peut-elle pas avoir pour conséquence une perte de soi ? Alors que le perdeur nous parle en apparence d’objets perdus matériels, il exprime aussi bien l’immatériel ; ce qui fait qu’il est attaché à l’objet perdu. Autrement dit : en affichant la perte, il s’expose.
Le paysage dans l’œuvre de Sally Mann – comment donner corps à la mémoire
Authors: Roure Antonin
Published: October 2022

La mémoire nous constitue, elle est l’essence même de l’humain. Souvent négligée dans nos sociétés contemporaines, elle empreint cependant chaque instant de nos vies quotidiennes et dessine le cours du monde. Mais alors comment en rendre compte ? Esclavagisme, guerre de Sécession, tensions religieuses… les traumatismes teintent la beauté des paysages du sud profond américain. L’artiste Sally Mann explore sa Virginie natale et interroge ses nombreux fantômes à l’aide de vieux appareils photographiques pour tenter de renouer avec ce passé. Elle semble témoigner de notre constante quête des « signes visibles de ce qui fut », pour reprendre les mots de Pierre Nora, mais peut-être cherche-t-elle aussi les signes de ce qui pourrait advenir ? Passé et présent reconciliés pour penser le futur.
En quête de l’original. Une approche historiographique des peintures murales de la chapelle basse de la collégiale de Saint-Bonnet-le-Château (Loire, France)
Authors: Katsutani Yuko
Published: October 2022

À partir du 19e siècle, des travaux de restauration des églises ont été entrepris un peu partout en France. La « restauration » n’incluait pas toujours la notion de « conservation », comme de nos jours. Les objets ont souvent subi des altérations et même des modifications de style, en raison des retouches picturales apposées postérieurement, résultat inévitable d’un malentendu culturel. Cet article examine l’état de conservation et de restauration des peintures murales de la chapelle basse de la collégiale de Saint-Bonnet-le-Château (Loire, France). L’approche historique montre comment la distinction entre les parties originales et les parties restaurées a fini par s’imposer.Les peintures murales de cette chapelle basse, du début du 15e siècle, ont subi plusieurs interventions au cours des derniers siècles. La première restauration (1877-1878) est de Lucien Bégule. Des textes et photos indiquent qu’il a adopté une attitude respectueuse des peintures d’origine. La seconde restauration (1924-1925) par Louis-Joseph Yperman, a également évité les excès. Toutefois, ces restaurateurs ont apposé des retouches picturales directement sur la couche originale. Ce procédé n’est plus accepté aujourd’hui, mais des traces de ces opérations subsistent encore sur certains murs.Au milieu du 20e siècle, les fondements de la restauration ont beaucoup évolué. Dans le souci de conserver l’état original des œuvres, trois principes ont guidé les travaux modernes : la réversibilité, la visibilité des actions effectuées et l’intervention minimale. Au cours de la troisième restauration (1959), Marcel Nicaud a apposé de simples maquillages à tempéra réversibles et visibles, pour différencier l’original des ajouts. En 1997, le dernier restaurateur, Robert Bouquin, a restauré à l’aquarelle la scène de la Crucifixion. Cette technique, moins agressive, a été mise en œuvre avec une conscience aiguë de la préservation et de la conservation de l’original. Cette approche historiographique met en valeur l’évolution des idées en matière de restauration au cours des deux derniers siècles.

Analysis of the (Mis)information Dissemination Network in WhatsApp
Authors: Nobre Gabriel P. , Almeida Jussara M.
Published: October 2022

In this thesis, we aim at investigating the spread of information, notably misinformation, on WhatsApp. We show how WhatsApp enables the formation of a rich underlying network that, while crossing the boundaries of existing groups, have structural properties that favor information dissemination at large. Next, we delve deeper into this network to identify user communities, i.e., groupings of users who, intentionally or not, share the same content disproportionately often and characterize how such components could affect information dissemination. By analyzing content sharing and network topological properties focusing on three perspectives (individuals, WhatsApp groups, user communities), our study offers valuable insights into how WhatsApp users leverage the underlying network connecting different groups to gain large reach in the spread of misinformation in the platform.
Estudo Comparativo entre Ferramentas de Automação Web via RPA
Authors: Salgado Filho Paulo , Ferraz Carlos
Published: October 2022

The world is experiencing an unprecedented digitalization process. Digital solutions to everyday problems are nothing new, but the COVID-19 pandemic leveraged them in an almost imposing way. The legal process, medical consultations, and even much of the traditional office work today have some digital correlation, and in the digital world, robots can automate several examples of repetitive work. The term RPA (Robotic Process Automation) is used to designate software that performs tasks previously done manually. Currently, various tools allow for automated workflows on the internet, and many companies are built around these solutions. Two of these tools are well known: Puppeteer and Selenium. This work conducted a comparative study between these two technologies, pointing out positive and negative aspects and showing situations where there may be an advantage for one or the other. The results obtained in two different experiments show that in case 1, which deals with the automation of filling out forms on the Web, the tools perform in a statistically equivalent way, while in case 2, referring to data extraction and report generation, Puppeteer presents significantly better results. This work verifies that among the factors that can be decisive in the performance difference is how the interface between the written code and the Web browser is made.
Social welfare considerations in a rights-based approach to countering climate change: lessons for south-east Europe
Authors: Qerimi Qerim
Published: October 2022

Social welfare is gaining prominence in the pursuit of global aspirations to fight climate change, one of the preeminent collective concerns of our time. A series of recent landmark judicial decisions in countries including Germany, France and the Netherlands testifies to the prevailing concerns as well as to the inadequacy of the existing measures adopted by states in order to attain realistic climate goals. In all these cases, such cardinal dimensions as the social consequences of climate change, social equality and overall social welfare were made the subject of court scrutiny. The underlying aim of this article is to explore and discern the role and importance of social welfare considerations in the emerging institutional discourse about countering climate change and meeting shared global climate ambitions. In this connection, it seeks to portray wider decision-making trends in western European countries which should, in turn, be interpreted as providing a guiding vision as well as indicators for measuring advances in climate change policies within the region of south-east Europe which has yet to feature in such court actions.
The west’s long-distorted view of the Balkans and their people led to a ‘catastrophic’ outcome
Authors: Akyol Riada Asimovic
Published: October 2022

This article was written in review of the 27th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide which, in 2022, overlapped with the Eid al Adha celebrations. The author recalls some of the facts related to the Bosnian genocide and the horrific, inhumane regard which the perpetrators had for the bodies of those they had killed, reminding us that remembrance is not only crucial in itself but because genocide can happen anywhere. She then turns to the ‘catastrophic’ failures of western policy during the 1990s rooted substantially in Islamophobia and a desire to emphasise Christianised Europe, contrasting this with the intellectual galvanisation and growth of self-consciousness which has subsequently occurred among Bosniaks with a view to remembering the past but also to the rebuilding of a multiethnic Bosnia and Herzegovina. Healing remains fraught with difficulties, but coming to a reckoning with the past requires an ultimate rejection of the harmful stereotypes about the region and its peoples in which, recalling Marko Attila Hoare’s recent essay, removal of the faultlines which stem from the western mindset is critical.
Improving the Brain-Computer Interface Learning Process with Gamification in Motor Imagery: A Review
Authors: Gao Chongli , Xia Mingyue , Zhang Zhehao , Han Yongpeng , Gu Yaxin
Published: October 2022

Brain-computer-interface-based motor imagery (MI-BCI), a control method for transferring the imagination of motor behavior to computer-based commands, could positively impact neural functions. With the safety guaranteed by non-invasive BCI devices, this method has the potential to enhance rehabilitation and physical outcomes. Therefore, this MI-BCI control strategy has been highly researched. However, applying a non-invasive MI-BCI to real life is still not ideal. One of the main reasons is the monotonous training procedure. Although researchers have reviewed optimized signal processing methods, no suggestion is found in training feedback design. The authors believe that enhancing the engagement interface via gamification presents a potential method that could increase the MI-BCI outcome. After analyzing 2524 articles (from 2001 to 2020), 28 pieces of research are finally used to evaluate the feasibility of using gamified MI-BCI system for training. This paper claims that gamification is feasible for MI-BCI training with an average accuracy of 74.35% among 111 individuals and positive reports from 26 out of 28 studies. Furthermore, this literature review suggests more emphasis should be on immersive and humanoid design for a gaming system, which could support relieving distraction, stimulate correct MI and improve learning outcomes. Interruptive training issues such as disturbing graphical interface design and potential solutions have also been presented for further research.
Review of Kalman Filter Developments in Analytical Engineering Design
Authors: V. Kim Yuri
Published: October 2022

This chapter discusses using the Kalman Filter (KF) for the analytical design in such engineering applications, as a closed loop control system, which often can be considered as time-invariant and linear (LTI). The chapter discuses designing a navigation accelerometer with the electric spring. This is a typical example of the closed loop, negative feedback control. Two approaches are used: A-conventional, empirical and B-analytical with KF. The consideration of both of them opens a comprehensive understanding of the system dynamics and its potentials. The discussion is based on the suboptimal form of the KF-Filter with Bounded Growth of Memory (FBGM), proposed by the author.
Development of Low-Friction Ion Gels for Industrial Applications
Authors: Kamijo Toshio , Arafune Hiroyuki , Morinaga Takashi , Sato Takaya
Published: October 2022

Friction reduction is imperative for improving the service life and energy efficiency of mechanical systems. Ion gels using ionic liquids (ILs) as swelling agents are expected to be stable gel lubricants owing to the high thermal stability and negligible volatility of ILs; they can maintain their swollen state even under harsh conditions. Therefore, we investigated two types of ion gels: an IL-substituted double-network gel (DN ion S-gel), in which the water in the DN hydrogel is replaced by the IL 3-ethyl-1-methyl-imidazolium ethylsulfate; and a DN ion gel containing N,N-diethyl-N-(2-methoxyethyl)-N-methyl-ammonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (DEME-TFSI), where one of the polymer backbones is a network of poly(N,N-diethyl-N-(2-methacryloylethyl)-N-methylammonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide), an IL-type polymer based on our previous synthetic study of IL polymer technology. The DN ion S-gel and DN ion gel achieved compression strengths of 25 and 30 MPa, respectively, and were thermally stable until 196°C and 335°C (10% weight-loss temperature), respectively. The coefficient of friction remained stable and low (0.02) after repeated measurements under harsh conditions (high temperature or vacuum conditions), affirming the durability of the DN ion gel.
Precise 6DOF Localization of Robot End Effectors Using 3D Vision and Registration without Referencing Targets
Authors: Chen Liang-Chia , Huang Sheng-Hao , Huang Bo-Han
Published: October 2022

A method for detecting the precise 6-degree-of-freedom (6DOF) localization of robotic arms end effectors without referencing any additional feature target during in-line robot operation is introduced to facilitate precise robot positioning and monitoring. In this work, a 3D vision probe with digital structured-light projection is integrated with a wafer handling robot to perform online 6DOF location monitoring in semiconductor production. Precise alignment of the robotic arms end effector moving in the 3D operation space is realized by robust point cloud object alignment using regional surface area descriptors and the variant iterative closest point algorithm. Verified and confirmed by experimental tests, the developed method can achieve online 6DOF location monitoring with micron-level accuracy. Moreover, the proposed method can completely avoid the disadvantages of existing methods, namely relying on planar 2D images and demanding an additional target to be embedded with the end effector for localization, which reduces practical application, especially in an in-line operation environment. The major technical breakthrough of the present work is the target-free precise 6DOF localization of moving objects.
Addressing US Youth Violence and Central American Migration through Fortifying Children, Families, and Educators in Central America: A Collaborative Approach to the Development and Testing of a Youth Violence Preventive Intervention
Authors: H. McClure Heather , Mark Eddy J. , R. Martinez Jr. Charles , Esmail Rubeena , Lucila Figueroa Ana , Batz Ruby
Published: October 2022

Youth violence is a pressing problem in the United States (US) with multiple contributors. Some violence involving US youth can be linked to a larger global epidemic of youth violence in Latin America and in Central America, specifically. Hemispheric histories of violence fueled by a century of US resource extraction and intervention, and other factors such as internal economic and political strain, contribute to present-day migration from Central America to the US. Addressing the intricate problems of US youth violence and migration requires multi-systemic prevention programs to address youth violence in families, schools, and communities in Central America. One such example is Miles de Manos (MdM; “Thousands of Hands”). MdM is intended to target risk and protective factors related to migration from Central America to the US. It is a multi-modal, culturally-specified and community-based violence prevention intervention for elementary-school aged children, their families, and children’s teachers and school staff. Data collected during pilot trials indicate promise in terms of MdM increasing positive teacher and parent behaviors that promote prosocial behaviors and reduce problem behaviors in youth. Outcomes due to MdM for youth, parents and other caregivers, and teachers are currently being examined in a randomized controlled trial in Tegucigalpa, Honduras.
Clinical Predictors of Successful Anti-tachycardia Pacing for Ventricular Arrhythmia Termination
Authors: Tabaghi Shiva , Mahmoudi Elham , Namazi Mohammad Hasan , Khaheshi Isa , Akbarzadeh Mohammad Ali
Published: October 2022

Background: Anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP) is a fast and safe method for terminating ventricular tachycardia (VT). Implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) shocks are unpleasant, stressful experiences that have been associated with higher mortality rates than ATP. Determining the factors enhancing the efficacy of ATP therapies can minimize the appropriate ICD shocks. Objectives: In this study, we investigated the factors anticipating the success rate of ATP. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out among 60 patients referring to our center for regular ICD device analysis. These patients had at least one episode of appropriate ATP therapy in their analysis. The VT morphologic characteristics were obtained from stored far-field intracardiac electrogram (EGM). The VT episodes and native QRS were classified into non-Q or Q categories based on their EGM morphologies. Results: ATP was successful in 38 (63.3%) cases. Age, sex, history of ischemic heart disease and diabetes, type of device and cardiomyopathy (ischemic or dilated), antiarrhythmic drugs, left ventricular ejection fraction, and EGM characteristics did not predict ATP success. Conclusions: It seems that neither the demographic factors nor the morphologic characteristics of VT EGMs can predict the efficacy of ATP therapy.

Published: October 2022

Background: Coping with body image alteration is one of the most challenging breast cancer treatments. Identifying the facilitators and barriers is essential for integrative care planning to improve coping with body image in women with breast cancer. Objectives: This study aimed to explore facilitating factors and barriers to coping with body image altered in women with breast cancer. Methods: This study was done with a qualitative approach from March 2016 to October 2017. Participants (36 women with breast cancer) were selected using purposeful sampling and maximum variation from healthcare centers in Alborz province, Iran. The data collection method was a semi-structured interview analyzed by the conventional content-analysis approach defined by Graneheim and Lundman. Results: The current study found that the facilitators in coping with body image altered in women with breast cancer were "supportive resources" extracted from the four subcategories of "receive/understand spouse support," "perceived support by the family," "support by peers in real life or online" and "support by non-governmental organizations. "The barriers to coping with body image altered were "unsympathetic interactions" and "failure of the health system to provide services." Conclusions: According to the findings of the present study, supportive guidelines and planning context-based integrated care are needed to improve facilitators and remove barriers, which allow people to cope better with body image altered.

Context.—

The International Collaboration on Cancer Reporting (ICCR), supported by major pathology and cancer organizations, aims at the standardization of evidence-based pathology reporting of different types of cancers, with the inclusion of all parameters deemed to be relevant for best patient care and future data collection. Lymph node metastasis is one of the most important prognostic factors in breast cancer.

Objective.—

To produce a histopathology reporting guide by a panel of recognized experts from the fields of pathology and surgery with elements deemed to be core (required) and noncore (recommended) to report when assessing regional lymph nodes of patients with breast cancer.

Data Sources.—

Published literature, previous guidelines/recommendations, and current cancer staging principles were the basis of the data set drafted by the expert panel. This was discussed in a series of teleconferences and email communications. The draft data set was then made available for public consultation through the ICCR Web site. After this consultation and ICCR ratification, the data set was finalized.

Conclusions.—

The ICCR has published a data set for the reporting of surgically removed lymph nodes (including sentinel lymph node biopsy, axillary lymph node dissection, targeted axillary surgery, and lymph node sampling specimens) for breast tumors. This is part of a series of 4 ICCR breast cancer–related data sets. It includes 10 core elements along with 2 noncore elements. This should allow for synoptic reporting, which is more precise, uniform, and complete than nonsynoptic reporting, and leads to improved patient outcomes.
Analysis and evaluation of flood routing using Muskingum method
Authors: Alhumoud Jasem
Published: October 2022

There are several mathematical procedures that deal with hydrologic flood routing. The Muskingum technique is one of the most common techniques used for flood routing for river reach. From the hydrologic point of view, flood routing in a stream is used to predict the flood discharge, or storage, at any downstream station in a stream channel from a known discharge, or stage, at an upstream station. Hydrologic routing is an approximate technique. However, it provides relatively easy alternative, for solving flood routing problems. It is based on the storage and the continuity equations. In principle hydrologic routing employs historical data on inflow and outflow discharges in the reach under study. The Muskingum method is the particular one to be considered in this paper, describing three procedures, other than the classical trial and error procedure, for solving flood routing.

Background: This study aims to establish reference intervals (RIs) for thyroid hormones in the elderly population and analyze their influence on the prevalence of subclinical hypothyroidism. Methods: Thyroid hormone records of subjects who underwent routine health checkup at our hospital between 2018 and 2020 were analyzed. Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), total triiodothyronine, total thyroxine, free triiodothyronine (FT3), and free thyroxine (FT4) levels were compared between young and elderly subjects. Thresholds of these thyroid hormones were established for elderly subjects. Results: A total of 22,207 subjects were included. Of them, 2,254 (10.15%) were aged ≥ 65 years. Elderly subjects had higher TSH, and lower FT3 and FT4 levels when compared with young subjects. In the elderly group, the RIs for TSH, FT3 and FT4 were 0.55-5.14 mIU/L, 3.68-5.47 pmol/L, and 12.00-19.87 pmol/L, respectively. The age and sex specific RIs for TSH were 0.56-5.07 mIU/L for men and 0.51-5.25 mIU/L for women. With whole-group RIs and age and sex-specific RIs for elderly people, the prevalence of subclinical hypothyroidism was 9.83% and 6.29% (p < 0.001), respectively. Conclusions: Elderly individuals had higher TSH levels than young individuals. Our study indicated that establishing specific RIs for elderly individuals is needed. This has implications for the diagnosis and management of subclinical hypothyroidism in the elderly population.

Cumplimiento de la normativa patrimonial y paisajística en la planificación urbana de varios municipios del área metropolitana de Sevilla (España)
Authors: Venables Brito José Tomás , Guerrero-Amador Inmaculada C.
Published: October 2022

La protección del Patrimonio y el Paisaje es una materia de gran relevancia en toda Europa, puesto que en sus múltiples formas encarna la identidad, cultura y saberes de toda su historia. En España, para precisar sus mecanismos, se ha consolidado un completo entramado de normas y regulaciones nacionales, autonómicas y municipales que articulan y gestionan su operar acorde a sus competencias y escala territorial. Sin embargo, y a pesar de este macizo tejido normativo, se ha identificado en Andalucía múltiples incumplimientos y omisiones que ponen a diversos elementos del Patrimonio y el Paisaje en grave riesgo frente al crecimiento urbano. Para evidenciar esto, el presente artículo realiza una revisión de los Planes Generales de Ordenamiento Urbano (PGOU) de tres municipios pertenecientes al área metropolitana de Sevilla; Alcalá del Río, Santiponce y La Rinconada, con el fin de reconocer incumplimientos a la normativa territorial, ambiental y urbanística, y analizar los motivos y riesgos que esto implica. Para ello fue necesario, primero, la revisión de la legislación concerniente, para contrastarla con los últimos PGOU de los casos escogidos, utilizando SIG. Su análisis detallado permitió evidenciar numerosas omisiones e incumplimientos, producto de una deficiente aplicación de las normas y una exigua fiscalización. Situación que genera un riesgo de afección a diversos elementos patrimoniales y paisajísticos, de gran valor para toda España.

Published: October 2022

En el cuadrante suroriental de la península ibérica, se han sucedido formas de organizarse losregantes que reciben agua de una misma toma (heredamiento de aguas, comunidad de propietarios,sociedad civil de bienes, junta de usuarios, comunidad de regantes, etc.). Son modelos de gobernanzaen la gestión de un recurso escaso como es el agua para riego. La investigación es un estudio regional,diacrónico y comparado del uso del agua para riego en la Región de Murcia, en el que se analiza lapérdida de autonomía y autogestión de los regantes en la administración del agua, para ser finalmentetutelados por el Estado a través de las confederaciones hidrográficas. Es un estudio de casos en regadíoshistóricos tradicionales de Calasparra, Molina de Segura, Librilla, Fortuna y Abanilla. Se ha realizadouna amplia búsqueda de fuentes originales en los archivos de heredamientos y comunidades de regantes,en los de varios municipios, y en el de la Confederación Hidrográfica del Segura. El trabajo de campoen los perímetros regables y las entrevistas a gestores del acopio y distribución del agua han permitido conocer las singularidades de la gobernanza entre agricultores-regantes, así como los rasgos de los paisajes culturales construidos por esos aprovechamientos de agua.

Telomerase reverse transcriptase promotes angiogenesis in neonatal rats after hypoxic-ischemic brain damage
Authors: Li Jiao , Feng Yi , Zhao Jing , Fang Zhi , Liu Haiting
Published: October 2022

Background

Angiogenesis is an endogenous repair mechanism following hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD). Interestingly, recent studies have shown that angiogenesis can be regulated by telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT), a critical component of telomerase. As telomerase reverse transcriptase can promote angiogenesis after stroke, we hypothesized that it could also promote angiogenesis after HIBD. To test this hypothesis, we developed in vivo and in vitro HIBD models in neonatal rats.

Methods

TERT was overexpressed by lentivirus and adenovirus infection, and levels were measured using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. We used a cell counting kit to quantify the proliferation rate of brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs), and immunofluorescence staining to measure CD34 expression levels. A microvessel formation assay was used to evaluate angiogenesis. Blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity was assessed using immunohistochemical staining for ZO-1 and Evans Blue staining. Lastly, the expression level of Notch-1 was measured by western blotting.

Results

Overexpression of TERT promoted the proliferation of BMECs after hypoxic-ischemic damage in vitro. TERT overexpression increased the formation of microvessels in the neonatal brain after HIBD both in vivo and in vitro. Overexpression of TERT improved BBB integrity in the brains of neonatal rats after HIBD. In addition, the expression level of Notch-1 was increased in BMECs following oxygen glucose deprivation, and overexpression of TERT further increased Notch-1 expression levels in BMECs following oxygen glucose deprivation.

Discussion

Our results reveal that telomerase reverse transcriptase promotes angiogenesis and maintains the integrity of the blood-brain barrier after neonatal hypoxic-ischemic brain damage. Furthermore, the Notch-1 signaling pathway appears to contribute to the angiogenic function of telomerase reverse transcriptase. This protective effect of telomerase reverse transcriptase opens new horizons for future investigations aimed at uncovering the full potential of telomerase reverse transcriptase as a promising new target for the treatment of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.
