Authors: Jahromi Leila Razeghian , Sadeghi Mazidi Safoura , Farhangdoost Ali
Published: March 2023

An increase in the incidence of chronic and incurable diseases and the lack of facilities to care for patients raises the issue of prioritization in the allocation of facilities and the selection of patients to use the facilities and the choice between life and death. Discussion of termination of life and cessation of treatment is one of the challenges in the field of medicine and ethics. The demand for euthanasia has increased in recent years, and future physicians will face this issue. This cross-sectional study was performed on 200 interns and medical residents in 1400. All participants completed the Demographic Information Questionnaire, Beck Depression Questionnaire, and Attitude to Euthanasia Questionnaire. In the present study, 67.5% of participants agreed with euthanasia. The mean score of attitudes to euthanasia was higher in men than women (P = 0.023) and higher in single people (P = 0.045). As religious beliefs increased in individuals, the mean score of attitudes toward euthanasia decreased and opposition to it increased (P> 0.001). Positive attitudes toward euthanasia were associated with depression and its severity (P> 0.001). Depression and its severity are significantly associated with more physicians' desire for euthanasia. On the other hand, the stronger the religious beliefs, the greater the anti-euthanasia. Support for euthanasia in men and single people was also higher than in other groups.

Published: March 2023

Fox News Channel is a mass media that has ideological ties to the United States Republican Party. Fox & Friends is claimed to be the highest rating cable news program in the US since 2001. In 2019, Fox & Friends reported Christchurch Shooting. The Christchurch incident is the deadliest mass shooting in New Zealand history. FNC constructed reality potentially influenced the public’s understanding of Christchurch shooting. This research examines and explores FNC constructed reality by analyzing how the perpetrators, motives, and impacts are framed. Based on research findings, FNC constructed reality denied the Christchurch shooting as an act of terror. It also tried to influence public understanding that the perpetrator has no ideological connection with Donald Trump. When compared with the Utrecht shooting, FNC chose to use word terror in describing the event, even before the Dutch government gave an official statement regarding the incident. FNC constructed reality shows bias and favoritism towards perpetrators of a certain race, which contradicts the company’s slogan that claims to produce fair and balanced coverages. Thus, to carry out the journalistic functions in a democratic country, FNC must educate the public about the realities, instead of spreading biased and discriminatory reporting.

Authors: Lu Wenyi , Griffin Joe , Sadler Troy D. , Laffey James , Goggins Sean P.
Published: March 2023

The construction of prediction models reflecting players’ learning performance in serious games currently faces various challenges for learning analytics. In this study, we design, implement, and field test a learning analytics system for a serious game, advancing the field by explicitly showing which in-game features correspond to differences in learner performance. We then deploy and test a system that provides instructors with clear signals regarding student learning and progress in the game, which instructors could depend upon for interventions. Within the study, we examined, coded, and filtered a substantial gameplay corpus, determining expertise in the game. Mission HydroSci (MHS) is a serious game that teaches middle-school students water science. Using our logging system, designed and implemented along with game design and development, we captured around 60 in-game features from the gameplay of 373 students who completed Unit 3 of MHS in its first field test. We tested eight hypotheses during the field test and presented this paper’s results to participating teachers. Our findings reveal several features with statistical significance that will be critical for creating a validated prediction model. We discuss how this work will help future research establish a framework for designing analytics systems for serious games and advancing gaming design and analytics theory.

Aims: We aimed to compare the effects of anesthesia induction on hemodynamic parameters of ketamine-midazolam or etomidate-midazolam combinations and coronary artery bypass grafting surgery.

Material and Methods: 40 adult patients undergoing CABG were randomly allocated into two groups for this prospective randomized double-blinded study. Ketamine group (n = 20) and Etomidate group (n = 20). Intraoperative and postoperative hemodynamic variables, adrenal gland functions and intensive care period were compared after anesthesia induction with etomidate and ketamine.

Results: Perioperative hemodynamic parameters were not significantly different between the groups. Despite similar baseline measurements, cortisol levels were significantly higher 5 minutes after induction, during rewarming, and after ACTH stimulation test at postoperative day 1 in group ketamine than group etmidate. The groups were not significantly different in terms of duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation, frequency of postoperative delirium, and intensive care unit and hospital lengths of stay.

Conclusion: Ketamine-midazolam combination is an acceptable alternative to etomidate-midazolam combination in terms of hemodynamic stability. Compared with the ketamine-midazolam combination, the etomidate-midazolam combination significantly decreased cortisol levels during the intraoperative and early postoperative periods
A Study on Reexamination of The Story of Mari Based on Narrative Characteristics
Authors:   The Criticism and Theory Society of Korea, Jung Eunju
Published: March 2023

Through The Story of Mari (2002), this paper intends to discuss the narrative characteristics in terms of rediscovering masterpieces that failed to hit the animation. With the domestic animation market centered on works from the United States and Japan, I would like to re-examine the aspect that this text was not loved by audiences in Korea and was evaluated as a lack of narrative even though it was recognized worldwide. This paper studies narrative characteristics centering on the narrative of time and space, focusing on the animation The Story of Mari as a research method to materialize this, the following two methods are applied in combination. First, based on Gerard Genette’s concept of time, which is the basis of narrative structure in movies and novels, the relational categories of order, duration, and frequency are discussed. Second, based on Seymour Chatman’s theory, it is analyzed through elements such as size, outline and texture, density, location, and color, which are spatial parameters that convey narrative. Third, through Lacan’s theory of ‘the imaginary, the symbolic, and the real’, the growth narrative of Namwoo is analyzed to show that this theory can appear as a method of narrative imagery. Through convergent reading of time and space, the sequential characteristics between story-time and discourse-time and Namwoo’s time are analyzed. The order of story-time and discourse-time creates plot time in a retrospective way. This is simply a narrative device to compose another plot by time modulation that is not made of an antecedent arrangement of past-present events. The narrative characteristics of duration and frequency and the fantastic space of memories are discussed. The fantasy world where Namwoo meets Mari is repeated overlapping, and the fantasy world continues to unfold in Namwoo’s gaze. A fantastic story with Marie, a surreal being, and the arrangement of space and time show their relationship well. In particular, the scene of re-entry into the world of fantasy shows the process of Namwoo’s inner division and at the same time, he finds the direction of his life. Finally, unlike previous studies, the significance of this paper is to analyze the narrative characteristics of the animation The Story of Mari based on time and spatial characteristics and to examine its meaning.
Writing the Anthropocene: Environmental Crisis and Oceanic Imaginations in Ruth Ozeki’s A Tale for the Time Being
Authors:   The Criticism and Theory Society of Korea, Kang Yeonhaun
Published: March 2023

By situating “transpacific” as a critical space that allows oceanic exchange between Japan and Canada, the past and the present, and human and nonhuman, this essay critically examines how Ozeki’s third novel, A Tale for the Time Being (2013), helps us apprehend “slow violence,” one that is hard to see or feel due to the workings of time and distant locations. While mainstream Anthropocene discourse has tended to focus more on the perspectives of white elites, writers and scientists based in the Global North, Ozeki’s novel draws the reader’s attention to the fluidity of oceanic movements and intentionally blurs the boundaries between human history and environmental history, especially the links between nuclear bombing in Japan during the World War II and the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster in 2011, in order to emphasize a complex crisis for both human and nonhuman on a planetary scale. Building on what Elizabeth DeLoughrey terms “the oceanic turn” in literatary studies, I argue that Ozeki’s A Tale for the Time Being challenges and works to decolonize the discourses of the Anthropocene and thus invites us to imagine more just and sustainable environmental futures for the more-than-human world.
Characteristics of Modern Chinese Letter Textbooks (Cheokdok) from a Viewpoint of Sentence Introduction: Focusing on 「Seohanmunganghwaryakcho (Rhetorical Writing)」 in 『Shincheminun Contemporary Writings Letter Writing Style』

Published: March 2023

This thesis tries to examine aspects and characteristics of writings called 「Seohanmunganghwaryakcho (Rhetorical Writing)」 in 『Shincheminun Contemporary Writings Letter Writing Style』 from a viewpoint of sentence introduction essays. 「Seohanmunganghwaryakcho」 is a syntax text which includes basic composition methods, the composition theory, writing’s social roles and significance. This writing regards 『Shincheminun Contemporary Writings Letter Writing Style』 as playing an important role as the book with sentence introduction as well as the simple letter textbook. And the thesis tries to examine 「Seohanmunganghwaryakcho」 as the text which was influenced by Jeong, Inbo’s sentence theory by analyzing his preface in 『Shincheminun Contemporary Writings Letter Writing Style』 in detail.
For this, the preface by Jeong, Inbo was first examined. The preface shows the sentence theory and letter theory’s directionality pursued by 「Seohanmunganghwaryakcho」 like a completed example. Chapter 1 of 10 chapters of 「Seohanmunganghwaryakcho」 is the general introduction like an independent essay about the origin of languages, letters, and writings. Chapter 2 to 4 describe the characteristics of the composition methods to present concrete writing techniques, Chapter 5 to 6 explain the characteristics of the concrete sentence theory, and Chapter 7 to 10 focus on writings’ styles. Like this, it treats the letter theory in earnest.
This 「Seohanmunganghwaryakcho」 is writing to make readers read Widang Joeng, Inbo’s efforts to establish the systematic composition theory and letter theory as the sentence theory made under his academic and cultural influence. Furthermore, it can be thought this text plays an important role in making the characteristics of 『Shincheminun Contemporary Writings Letter Writing Style』 which is the contemporary letter textbook the sentence introduction with the characteristics of strengthening sentences in earnest, not staying at the level of the simple teaching material for letters.
Comparative Influence of Various Nutritional Media on Mycelial Growth and Cultural Characteristics of Trichoderma harzianum
Authors: Benazir Firdaus , Mohanka Reena
Published: March 2023

The agriculture sector has a vital challenge in reducing its reliance on chemical pesticides. Use of plant beneficial microorganisms is considered as one of the most attractive alternatives that makes a positive contribution to environmentally safe, sustainable agriculture. Trichoderma species have proved to be one of the promising bio-control agents for the management of plant diseases, and the search for novel species of the fungal antagonist is in progression. The aim of this research work is to isolate and evaluate Trichoderma species from rhizospheric soil on five different nutritional (culture) media PDA, SDA, MSDA, CDA, and TSM. The most effective culture media for the isolation of Trichoderma isolates was PDA, followed by CDA, SDA, MSDA and TSM. The highest linear growth (84mm) was found in Potato dextrose agar and the lowest linear growth (45.66 mm) was found in TSM. The maximum biomass (fresh and dry) was found in PDB (1541.7 mg/100 ml and 749 mg/100ml, respectively).The minimum biomass (fresh and dry) was observed on TSM (677.67 mg/100 ml and 365 mg/100ml, respectively). For isolation and growth studies of antagonistic fungi, as well as for various laboratory screenings, the selection of media is an important and critical factor. The present work focuses on the selection of the best supportive medium for the isolation, growth and biomass production of selected Trichoderma harzianum for future commercialization as bio-control agent and production of industrially important enzymes (cellulase, pectinase, and amylase etc.).

Published: March 2023

The influence of selected insecticides, monocrotophos, cypermethrin and fungicides mancozeb and hexaconazole was evaluated on Azospirillum population in vertisol soils collected from cotton grown fields of Kurnool district, Andhra Pradesh, India. The influence of these pesticides on Azospirillum population was dose dependent; insecticide monocrotophos showed the maximum stimulation towards Azospirillum population at 5.0 kg ha-1, whereas cypermethrin showed maximum enhancement at 2.5 kg ha-1 level. Likewise the fungicide mancozeb and hexaconazole showed maximum stimulation at 5.0 kg ha-1. The pesticides up to 5.0 kg ha-1 were either stimulatory or innocuous to bacterial population. The highest stimulation in bacterial population was observed at 10-day incubation.

Sesame is an important oilseed crop and India happens to be the largest producer. However, its productivity is quite low due to the infestation of insect pests and diseases and one of the important diseases is sesame phyllody transmitted by the leafhopper, Orosius albicinctus Distant. The biochemical basis of resistance to leafhoppers and sesame phyllodyin selected genotypes revealed that the total phenols in leaves (r = - 0.771**), shoot(r = - 0.764**) and pods (r = - 0.762**) showed a significant and negative relationship with phyllody incidence While, total sugars, reducing sugar, amino acids and crude proteins showed a positive relationship with phyllody incidence.
